Akira made a big circle and made a detour back to the place where he had just been shot.

As cautiously approaching the fallen Dabe and the others, Akira aimed his gun at their heads, aiming earnestly.

Whether it's someone who is dead, someone who has passed out, or someone who finds Akira screaming, Akira pulls the trigger in the same way.

Three gunshots echoed, and three bodies with holes in their heads rolled on the ground.

“...... Three people this time. Two more?"

"Hide Now"

"Okay. ”

Akira is again hiding in other alleys.

The walls of the alley, slowing down their breathing, followed the instructions of the alpha.

Akira. Take out the recovery medicine and drink it. There's nothing left to sell!"

"Am I hurt?"

"It's best to drink one cup because it's very effective, and there are about 10 tablets to do"

Akira was surprised, but she took out the recovery pill from the paper bag as instructed, tore open the bag, and placed the capsule inside on the palm of her hand.

(...... This is also a relic of the old world, a recovery pill produced in the old world, right?

But it didn't hurt, and I felt a little too wasteful to drink it. ...... But Alpha said to drink. )

This is an indication of the alpha.

I guess it makes some sense.

Akira thought as she swallowed the recovery pill.

After hearing the gunshot, Dabei hurried back to his companion, and when he saw his companion's body, his face contorted with anger.

"Damn, aren't you gone?"

Behind Dabei, the young man who came back with him turned pale and retreated a little.

At some distance from Darbey, he shouted with a expression twisted with fear.

"Ah, it's all because of your greed! because you attacked him!"

Then he threw Dabe and fled with all his might.

Then the gunshots rang out again.

Targeted by Akira.

But there was no hit.

The boy screamed and ran away, disappearing into the depths of the slums.

Dabe also wants to escape.

Such passion moves while shouting.

However, his hatred for his companion's killing, and his contempt for the boy who had fled, prevented him from running away, and Dabe shouted excitedly.

"Get me out, bastard!"

There is only one way to shoot a teenager who escapes.

Dabe turned the fear of killing into hatred, taking advantage of the situation and running in the direction of Akira's disappearance.

Akira wants to confront Dabe in a dark alley.

Alpha stood in front of Akira and told him to point to Dabe's approximate location.

Aim at the situation where the enemy is peeping into the alley and shoot the moment the enemy shows his face.

For this purpose, Akira raised the gun steadily in both hands, waiting for the moment.

But something unexpected happened.

The other party remained vigilant, stopped for a moment, and cautiously spied into the alley.

Originally, he thought so, but Dabei, who was furious, completely gave up his vigilance and rushed into the alley without hesitation.

This was also unexpected for Darbe.

The other party has already fled to the depths of the alley.

Thinking so, in order to prevent Akira from escaping, he jumped into the alley as best he could.

But Akira was there.

Due to inconsistent predictions between the two sides, Akira and Dalbe faced each other in the closest distance.

Surprised, he pointed the gun at the other man and pulled the trigger almost at the same time.

The gunfire overlapped.

Akira and Dabe fell to the ground at the same time.

Bullets fired at each other hit each other's bodies.

Both were seriously injured.

Both sides were thinking about the same question with expressions of anguish from the excruciating pain.

The other party has not been killed.

The battle is not over.

The necessary measures must be taken urgently.

Move a little faster than the other person's movements.

His thoughts could not be calmed down because of the severe pain, but he still managed to get up and shoot at the other party.

Dabe, who desperately wanted to shoot, saw Akira, who had already pointed the gun at him.

Akira pulls the trigger first.

The bullets fired at close range hit Dabe.

Although not killed on the spot, it was enough to take away Dalbe's ability to move.

Darbay fell, the gun fell to the ground, and blood flowed from his body, gathering into pools of blood, ending his short life.

After Akira kills Dabe, she turns her gaze to where she was hit.

There was a hole in the clothes, and a lot of blood was oozing out.

Serious injuries for sure.

However, although I felt the sluggishness of my movements due to the injury, the pain has been reduced a lot.

Just when Alpha felt incredible, Alpha gave instructions with a serious expression.

"Akira, treat the wound immediately. ”

"Alpha. It doesn't seem to hurt much......"

"It was just painkillers that I had taken beforehand, and the pain had an analgesic effect, and the injury had not healed. ”

"I see. Ah, that's why you used recovery pills first?"

Thanks to the analgesic effect of the recovery pills, Akira barely moved her badly injured body.

In addition, because he was shot immediately after taking the recovery pill, the treatment of the wound of the bullet has also begun.

That had little effect on Akira's movements.

But it was by this narrow margin that Akira survived.

First, swallow additional rehab medication, about 10 capsules this time.

After that, the recovery pill capsule was opened, and it was sprinkled directly on the injured area, which was also about 10 capsules.

Finally, a healing tape is tied to the injured area.

Be fast. Otherwise, if you faint and don't get treatment in time, you will die. ’

Akira barely moved her body and took out the recovery pill from the bag next to her. Then I immediately swallowed about 10 capsules.

Then open the capsule with a trembling hand and sprinkle the contents on the wound.

At that moment, the same sharp pain that hit Akira as when he was shot.

After gritting his teeth and reluctantly enduring it, he turned his slightly uneasy gaze to Alpha.

"Ah, Alpha, is this okay?"

"The effectiveness of the analgesic effect will be reduced when the drug is administered directly.

Since therapeutic nanomachines are applied directly to the injured area, the effect will be better than oral administration. Hang in there. ”

Finally, take out the paper bag and apply a bandage-like treatment tape to the wound.

"The treatment is over, let's get out of here. It's too dangerous to stay here like this. ”

"Can you move...... No, if you have to move, you have to move, and if you don't leave here, you can't do it......"

Akira endured the pain as she managed to get to her feet.

Then slowly start walking.

Although every step is painful, I will still find a way to move on.

From the point of view of the injury, this is an amazing thing to do, showing the amazing properties of recovery pills that can be treated to that extent in a short period of time.

However, for Akira, who couldn't stand the pain, there was no room for surprise at all with its amazing performance.

Because of the pain, his face twisted and walked in the alley.

Alpha encouraged Akira, who was about to fall, with a serious expression.

"Come on!"

"Ahh ”

Akira managed to make it to the same bed she was in yesterday.

Although it had already collapsed in half, in order not to make him faint, he still carefully prepared the bed.

If you are approached because of this injury, it will be over.

Thinking like this, in order to never be discovered, hide your figure in a corner of the alley.

When the cover was ready, he lay down on the bed.

“...... Alpha. I'm already at the limit. Sleep, rest. ”

Alpha spoke softly with a worried expression.

"Rest, rest. ”

Akira closed her eyes with an expression of exhaustion and pain, and his consciousness was immediately consumed by darkness.

(...... Hope to wake up. )

I prayed all the time, but I didn't even know who I was praying to.

The next morning, Akira woke up so quickly that even she felt incredible.

While surprised by the incident, he muttered to himself with emotion.

“...... Aren't you dead?...... Really?"

I feel that my body is uncoordinated, and I touch it with my hand, and I feel like there is something hard near what I was hit yesterday.

Upon closer inspection, there is something underneath the therapeutic tape. As he carefully tore off the tape, a deformed bullet appeared.

The bullet appears to be drilling into the body, but is actually being squeezed out of the body.

“...... Did you get a bullet yesterday? Is it still in your body?"

"It seems to be. The therapeutic nanomachines tried to expel the bullets from the body, but they were blocked by the therapeutic tape. It's better to take it off. ”

Akira was a little surprised by the alpha who was standing beside him at some point, but it wasn't as obvious as yesterday.

I gradually got used to the alpha next to it.

The bullet that had invaded the body was forcibly withdrawn and the healing tape was reapplied.

The pain is completely gone.

Alpha smiled again.

"Akira, early. That happened yesterday, did you sleep well?"

"Ah, I slept so well. ...... Overslept. ”

The sun has risen.

Compared to Akira's usual wake-up time, it was quite late.

Akira's stomach was screaming with hunger.

I didn't eat anything last night, and I can't even eat breakfast if I go on like this.

"I'm so hungry!

Akira hurried to the ration station. Barely caught up.

It was also planned to go to the Kuzhara Street ruins today, but it was canceled due to Alpha's instructions.

In order to get Akira's physical condition to the best, he decided to take a day off.

It would have been strange to have only a day off after being hit.

Akira also has that unnatural sense of common sense.

However, the pain of being shot has disappeared, and the movement of the body is a little sluggish.

Akira gradually realizes that this is the effect of the recovery medicine produced in the old world, and as she rests in the alley, she can't help but sigh.

(Both recovery pills and healing tapes were made in the Old World.) Is it a relic of the old world? No wonder it sells for so much. Or is it a bit too wasteful?...... No, but I don't want to die. )

There are many things that are made with advanced technology of the old world, and things that cannot be reproduced with current technology.

That's not limited to recovery pills.

The knife found at a certain site can easily tear apart meat and fish with a slight force, and even steel and concrete can be easily torn.

But no amount of force can cut the human body, and at first glance, this has a paradoxical function.

Even when the steel is cut again and again, the sharpness does not decrease at all.

The blade will not rust when soaked in water, and it will not react when soaked in aqua regia, which has the strongest corrosive ability.

After the company's research institute removed what looked like a knife-like safety device, it cut off the tank and the crew in two, despite the fact that the blade had not yet been clearly opened.

But after that, the knife shattered to the ground.

Most of the science and technology of the present civilization was founded by analyzing the technology of the old world.

However, even if a competent researcher has exchanged his or her life for wisdom, there are very few technologies that can elucidate its principles.

Most of them are used without much understanding.

Because of this, relics from the Old World can be traded at a high price.

And even if you don't sell such a relic, it's fun for hunters to use it yourself.

Thanks to that relic of the old world, a high-performance recovery potion, Akira was able to stay alive.

Knowing that even Akira's clumsy knowledge can make a lot of money after selling.

However, he did not realize that the existence of these relics, which was not comparable to these relics at all, was all around him.
