"Does the hotel even have a hospital?" asked a short-haired girl. "What are the requirements for hiring doctors?"
"Well, I'm not entirely sure about that," Fang Yang scratched his head. "All I know is that if you want to apply, you go into a room for a written test and interview. The results are announced immediately after."
"Who determines the results? The hotel owner?" another girl asked curiously.
"Probably, but I'm sure the judgment is fair."
Hearing this, the girls didn't ask any more questions.
They were smart enough to realize that with the hotel being so mysterious already, some things were better left unquestioned.
They'd heard that the hotel initially had only one building, but now it had over twenty! And no one had seen how they were built. Wasn't that mysterious enough?
Compared to that, everything else seemed acceptable.
Seeing their interest, Fang Yang asked, "Would you like to try applying for the doctor positions? Just let the owner know."
"Yes, we're considering it," one girl said. "But we're a bit tired now. We'd like to rest in our rooms first, get something to eat, and then we'll see about it tomorrow."
"Alright, your rooms are in Building 22. Just keep walking straight back, it's easy to find. There are also staff in the lobby of Building 22 if you need any help."
"Okay, thank you."
As the five girls left, Fang Yang felt pleased.
...
The next morning, the five girls found Gu Wanyin and expressed their interest in applying to the hospital.
"All five of you?" Gu Wanyin was surprised. "Were you all doctors before the apocalypse?"
"To be precise, we were medical interns," one girl explained.
Before the apocalypse, all five had just graduated from medical school and were doing their internships at a large hospital.
The zombie crisis broke out suddenly while they were on duty. Already close friends, they decided to escape together.
They had all tried to find their families afterward, but... none had survived.
So they had stuck together until now.
"I see," Gu Wanyin nodded.
Though they were interns, if their skills passed the system's assessment, they could start working at the hospital right away.
Then, another girl added, "Besides that, all five of us have Healing Abilities."
This time, Gu Wanyin was truly shocked.
"All... all of you?" she asked. "You mean all five of you are Healing Ability Users?"
She had been wondering why she'd never encountered any Healing Ability Users in this world.
She never expected to meet five at once!
"That's right."
The five girls were quite proud of this fact.
"Apart from us five, we haven't met any other Healing Ability Users in the past two years."
Gu Wanyin grasped one of their hands earnestly and said, "Please, you must join the hotel's hospital!"
With Healing Ability Users, the patients in the hotel wouldn't have to worry as much anymore.
Even without Gu Wanyin's urging, the five girls were quite willing.
To be honest, their Healing Abilities were quite strong, and they were skilled in using them.
After joining the hospital, they would receive a monthly salary in points.
Wasn't that much better than going out to kill zombies?
After all, Healing Abilities weren't very useful for killing zombies.
The five girls acted quickly and soon went to apply.
Naturally, all five of them successfully entered the hospital.
After all, Healing Ability Users were rare and valuable.
The system understood this point.
Plus, they had been medical interns before the apocalypse.
They were perfect for working in the hospital.
...
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
Now the hotel had thirty regular buildings, plus five special buildings.
After all this time, the hotel guests were no longer afraid of the monsters in the special buildings.
It was common to see humans and monsters arm in arm, or making plans to eat and drink together.
Gu Wanyin would occasionally fly her plane to other cities to bring back more guests.
The hotel unlocked some new shops, such as a printing shop, a spa, a DIY workshop, a board game cafe, and so on.
In addition, they unlocked a film studio.
This studio was specifically for shooting movies and TV shows.
The studio had many sets to choose from, including ancient interiors, deserts, beaches, and more. The filmmakers could even modify details and choose costumes.
If directors and actors wanted to film here, it didn't cost any points.
However, the finished movies had to be shown in the hotel's cinema.
Gu Wanyin would get half of the points earned from ticket sales.
After all, the hotel provided the filming location and props.
The other half would be distributed within the film crew, which Gu Wanyin didn't have to worry about.
After the studio appeared, Bai Shuwen was overjoyed.
She never thought she'd have a chance to return to her old profession.
And she could even earn points.
She had been a big star before the apocalypse, known for both her looks and acting skills.
So now, when people wanted to make a movie, she was naturally the first person they thought of.
After some time, a director in the hotel approached Gu Wanyin, saying he had something to discuss with her.
Gu Wanyin was curious. She didn't know much about filmmaking, so what could he want to discuss with her?
After sitting down in the lobby's lounge area and chatting with the director, she learned that before the apocalypse, he had been a horror film director.
Now that he heard about the film studio and the possibility of making movies again, he was eager to shoot another horror film.
So... he wanted to ask Gu Wanyin if he could borrow the staff from the amusement park's haunted house.
He had visited the haunted house before and thought the staff there played very convincing ghosts! If they could act in his movie, the effect would be amazing!
After listening, Gu Wanyin nodded readily: "That's possible, but..."
"But what? Does it cost points?" the director asked.
"No, that's not it," Gu Wanyin said. "It's just that they're not playing ghosts... they are real ghosts."
The director: "..."
Then, with a "thud," he fell off the sofa onto the floor.
Although he was terrified at first, he soon became even more excited.
They were real ghosts!
Using real ghosts to shoot a horror movie - wouldn't that make it even better?
They wouldn't need any post-production at all!
So Gu Wanyin went with him to the haunted house to select ghost actors.
The ghosts in the haunted house were hotel employees, and since half the points earned from the director's movie would go to the hotel, it was only right for the ghosts to help with filming.
Of course, it was voluntary - if no ghosts were willing, they couldn't be forced.
However, the ghosts in the haunted house were quite interested in making a movie.
The Black-Robed Ghost was the first to sign up.
After all, he had always wanted to show off in front of his big sister!
