Exploring the Mall 2
In the shop, forty or fifty food compartments were neatly arranged. It was clear that the staff had just restocked before closing. Colorful dried fruits glistened with a moist sheen under the dim light. Glossy date-and-walnut snacks were coated with a thin layer of powdered sugar, and milky white dairy skins were piled together. Each compartment was at least half full, showing no signs of having been looted.
"So many trendy snacks!" Zhao Yiqi couldn't contain his excitement and cheered quietly. But as soon as he spoke, Zhou Li lightly tapped him and said, "Shh, keep your voice down. Don't attract more zombies."
"Hehe, I'm just too surprised." Zhao Yiqi quickly covered his mouth and scratched his head embarrassedly, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be hidden. His fingertips couldn't help touching the plump dried mangoes in the compartment, growing even more excited.
"Each compartment has at least ten jin of stuff," Zhou Li said, her smile irrepressible upon discovering the small snack treasure. But she was much calmer than Zhao Yiqi. While Zhao Yiqi was busy stuffing his backpack, Zhou Li still held her fire axe and, like Lin Mo, vigilantly scanned the mall for any unusual movements. "So much stock. It'll last us a long time, and we can keep some for trading."
