It had been two days since Elena and Ethan paused their shop operations in Building A to give the residents time to recover from their recent injuries.
If too many outsiders kept coming to buy supplies, the residents would be forced to stay on guard, making it harder for them to rest and heal.

But after that initial act of kindness, Elena knew she had to return to reality—business was still business.
If anyone needed more medicine, they would have to pay for it. It was a harsh truth, but one that everyone had to accept.
