Hearing Ogata's words, Amachi also noticed the book that was lying quietly in the inconspicuous corner of the tent.

Ogata and Amachi stepped into the tent one after the other and picked up the book.

The first impression that this book brought to Ogata was thinness.

In terms of thickness, it is probably only as thick as an adult's tail finger.

Ogata released the first page of the book, and there was only a short paragraph written on the first page, and this short paragraph instantly attracted the attention of Ogata and Amachi, and made a faint smile appear on their faces.

I saw that on the first page of the book it was written:

(Day 1 of the island.)

Camp with the troops, not only is there a water source, but there are no cannibals nearby, so it is indeed the best place to camp.

After arriving here, the generals began to set up camp, these generals were worthy of the elite of the army, and their movements were quite swift, and in a short time, the camp was completed.

Although we doctors were very relaxed tonight, just sitting on the sidelines and watching the soldiers set up camp, we doctors should be busy after tonight. ）

After reading this passage, Amachi, who was full of joy, immediately said to Ogata:

"Ah Yi! This seems to be a researcher's diary! ”

"We've finally found something valuable...... "Ogata hurriedly flipped to the next page to see what the doctor was recording in his diary.

Ogata discovered that the diary written by the doctor was not a diary in the true sense of the word.

First of all - he doesn't record every day. It seems that he will only record it in this book after the events of the day that are worth mentioning.

Secondly, what he recorded every day was very brief, basically just a short paragraph, or a straight sentence.

On the next page of the first day of landing, I jumped directly to the fourth day of landing.

(Day 4 of the landing.)

The generals caught the ogre with a fishing net.

The ogre will only attack living people in line of sight, so just cover his eyes with a thick black cloth and he will turn into a dumb monster and no longer aggressive.

Although cannibals can't be killed, there are still a lot of ways to deal with them when their numbers are small.

This time, the soldiers captured three ogres, and Ikeda-sama began to take us on a study of the cannibals

Our first study was the most urgent thing the shogunate needed to know – what exactly could be done to kill ogres

It feels like this research will take a lot of time. ）

Ogata and Amachi don't know who Ikeda-sama is, but from the description of Ikeda-sama, he is supposed to be a very powerful doctor, in charge of all the researchers who have landed on the island.

Ogata flipped through the pages.

The rest of the pages since this page are mostly complaints about how boring the research has been and how the research process has made no progress, and there is nothing worth mentioning.

It wasn't until he reached a certain page at the end of the page that Ogata's rapidly flapping fingers stopped for a long time.

(Day 29 of the landing.)

Today an accident happened suddenly.

One of the soldiers who was in charge of guarding us suddenly vomited in a big gulp.

We thought he was just eating the wrong thing.

But who knows, after violently vomiting, his eyes turned purple and he directly turned into a man-eater.

We learned that living people can become ogres, and we learned about it when the islanders asked the shogunate for help, but it was still quite terrifying to see a large living person turn into an ogre.

The soldier, who had the misfortune to become an ogre, was trapped in a fishing net and tied to a large tree, immobilizing him. ）

(Day 30 of the landing.)

The accident that happened yesterday made everyone's morale and mood very low.

After all, no one wants to be the next wretched creature to become a man-eater.

Let's be honest - the shogunate's imposition of forcing us to study how to kill ogres first was utterly stupid.

The first thing we should be looking at is to find out why the islanders of this island have become cannibals.

As long as you find out the cause of the ogre, you may be able to find a way to kill the ogre.

The shogunate's behavior of forcing us to study how to kill cannibals first was really eye-catching. ）

(Day 31 of the island.)

Everyone's morale has been so low that it is impossible to conduct any more research.

Noting this, Mr. Ikeda sent a letter to officials on the mainland, explaining the current situation and asking the shogunate to agree to our withdrawal from Butterfly Island and to terminate the study. ）

(Day 49 of landing.)

The shogunate's reply arrived—they agreed to terminate the study and let us withdraw from the island, which was a great delight.

But we need to bring back the soldier who had the misfortune to become a man-eater, and by the way, the man-eaters we had captured.

I've already heard from Ikeda-sama that the shogunate intends to launch a second study against cannibals. However, this second study was no longer conducted on the islands, but on the mainland.

The reason why we want to catch a few ogres by the way when we withdraw to the mainland is to prepare test subjects for these two studies.

And the doctor in charge of the second study is the famous doctor - Hani Sogen.

Let's hope that Hani-sama will be able to find out the origin of the ogre and find a way to kill it. ）

(Day 52 of the landing.)

Under the protection of the generals, we began to evacuate.

Everyone just wants to get out of here quickly, and they don't have the good mood to pack up their belongings slowly and carefully, so the scene during the evacuation is described by an idiom as chickens flying and dogs jumping.

I didn't bother to take this diary back with me.

The time spent on this island as a research project is a terrible memory that I can't recall.

If you take this diary with you, every time you see it, you can't help but think back to your days on this island.

So I plan to dispose of this diary directly as garbage here, if someone is destined to pick up this diary of mine, you can deal with it as you like. ）

The journal is completely finished at this page.

The following pages are all blank.

After writing the last word in this diary, the owner of this diary should have left the island directly with the large army.

Ogata closed the journal in his hand.

He was the same as the Machi next to him, and the look on his face was not good-looking.

Although there are many boring contents in this diary, there is a very important piece of information that neither Ogata can ignore, and that is that even people who have been on the island for less than a month can become cannibals.

"Why did you become an ogre...... "Amachi couldn't help but mutter, "I don't understand it at all...... Zong Hai and his mentor lived on this island for at least several years, but after his death, he died quietly and did not become an ogre. ”

"And these people who landed on the island for research have only been on the island for less than a month, and some people have begun to turn into cannibals......"
