Chapter 41: False alarm
"Hey......" Mu Ye Pusang sweated on his forehead, "That...... I'm just saying that maybe it doesn't necessarily apply to that Miss Takashihiro......"
Everyone's gaze made Mu Ye Pusang very uncomfortable.
"What exactly do you mean by that?" Komuro said. consciously withdrew the hand that grabbed Mu Ye Pusang's collar.
Mu Ye Pusang straightened his clothes and did not show any dissatisfaction.
"Literally, maybe your companion wasn't bitten by zombies. The left door said lightly.
"Not bitten by zombies...... Are you saying that Mr. Jukawa is wrong?" asked Rei Miyamoto.
Mu Ye Pusang pushed his glasses: "That's right, maybe she took the guy who attacked Miss Gao Cheng as a zombie." ”
"Hey...... What the hell does this mean?" Komuro furrowed.
"That's it, literally. Zuo Men said nearly, walked straight to the sofa and sat down, "Young people, are you interested in listening to my story?"
Everyone looked at each other, then nodded.
"Please. ”
"About a month ago, the disaster broke out, and most of the people turned into that kind of monster-like thing, or zombie. "People were chased by zombies and hid everywhere, and then they stumbled upon this dojo on the mountain, so they hid here. There were probably thirty or forty people at the time......
"In the beginning, the monsters were very active, roaming around, and even chased them here for a while. We've killed us, but we've also had people die and become the same monsters...... This puts a lot of pressure on those who have just escaped from the hellish world. ”
"Then it was about four days after the disaster broke out, and there wasn't enough food. ”
"The vegetable patch in the backyard can only provide for about 20 people, and 40 people are a bit stretched. There wasn't enough food, so we had to go out into the forest in search of mushrooms and wild vegetables, of course, the forest is very dangerous, and we often suffer from zombie sneak attacks, although most of the sneak attacks failed due to me, but this undoubtedly caused more pressure on everyone. ”
"Pressure......" Kiriko muttered.
"Yes. And then in that constant stress, someone finally broke down. Zuo Men said nearly, and a trace of fear flashed in Mu Ye Pusang's eyes.
"The main manifestations of the collapse are...... Attack your companions like real zombies. Zuo Menjin's eyes flashed, "When the first person collapsed, we were defenseless, and three people were bitten to death at once. ”
"Then from the second day, people continued to go missing, and by the fifth day, there were only five people left in the dojo. "It's me, Sister Sakai, Mu Ye, and a man surnamed Noda." ”
"Those who are missing...... Could it be ......" Guiriko seemed to guess something.
"Since the food had just been eaten by a large number of people before, we still had to look for mushrooms and wild vegetables. Then on our way to find wild vegetables, we were attacked. Zuo Men said this, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Due to my negligence, Noda was bitten in the neck by a sneak attacker, and the major artery was torn open, and he died on the spot. I killed the sneak attacker. Zuo Menjin said lightly, but everyone could imagine what a dangerous state it was at that time.
"That sneak attacker is one of those who disappeared before. Mu Ye Pusang said, "Because of the dead people, we were worried that the smell of blood would attract a large number of monsters, so we hurriedly retreated, and we didn't come out again for the next few days." ”
"But we still need food after all, and after three days of hiding, we came out again, the same way, and then we saw Noda's highly decomposed corpse. Mu Ye Pusang said this, his face turned pale. It seems that the highly decomposed corpse left a rather heavy psychological shadow on him.
"You mean corpses?" Bonnie accurately captured the keyword, "didn't turn into a zombie?"
Everyone was reminded by her, and their faces changed.
"That's right. Zuo Men gave Bonnie an appreciative look, "We thought of the crazy man in the first place, the one who had a nervous breakdown and attacked his companion. ”
"Then we came to a conclusion. ”
"There is a group of humans in a mental state in the forest right now, and they attack humans like real zombies. Guiriko said calmly, "I understand what you mean. Saya was bitten by such a person. ”
"Huh...... Is that so?!" Komuro said suddenly.
"Yes, that's it. Mu Ye Pusang nodded.
"That means Takashiro-san won't be a zombie!, right?" shouted Kota Hirano.
"Not necessarily, you said, it's just a hypothesis, right? Bonnie said, staring at the two.
"Of course, we're just guessing. He stood up, "Then, when you're done talking, let's take your leave." ”
Mu Ye Pusang pushed his glasses: "Don't be too happy, the reason why we have such a conjecture is because of time, because so far, the longest zombie transformation time I have seen is about five hours, let's last five hours first!"
With that, the two walked out.
In the living room, everyone looked different.
"So...... Five hours is key. Kiriko said.
"So be it......" Tsuneko Poison Island said as she closed her eyes, her face full of exhaustion, in fact, she still had injuries on her body, and she hadn't had much rest in a long time.
"Five hours...... ? Komuro Xiao's brows furrowed, "It's really hard......"
Miyamoto Rei's heart was slightly gloomy.
It's dark
I seemed to be in some kind of viscous substance, floating up and down and unable to move.
"Don't move, don't move!" a voice suddenly rang in my ears, shaking my whole body.
...... What don't move?......
"Don't move!Don't move!!"
"Wait for me to pass......"
Suddenly, the blinding white light entered my eyes, making me unable to see clearly for a while.
After gradually getting used to it, I saw it clearly.
I was standing on the branch of a big tree.
The branches were not thick, and they creaked at my feet, as if they would break off in the next moment. My shoes were small in my field of vision, and then I realized that I had become a child.
"Don't move!"
A childish voice sounded behind me, and I looked back to see a little girl walking with difficulty from the roots of the large branches, carefully trying to balance on the thin branches.
"It's okay, I'll go over and save you!" the little girl smiled at me. The little face was covered with sweat. And I seemed to be able to see the fear in her eyes.
...... Save me?...... Yes, such a thin branch, such a high place...... But it really doesn't matter, aren't you still a kid yourself......
The little girl's expression suddenly became nervous: "Don't ...... Don't move! I'll save you when I pass!"
...... Shore?...... Isn't that my own name?
A slight doubt ran through my mind.
"KakakakaKa......"
Suddenly, there was a terrible cracking sound, and the little girl's expression changed, and she walked up quickly a few steps, grabbed my hand and ran back.
But before he could take a few steps, the branch snapped, and the little girl and I fell along with the broken branch......
..................
"Whew!"
I sat up all at once, my eyes wide open, and I was breathing heavily.
After a long time, I breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a dream......"
"Have a nightmare?" Rei Miyamoto sat on another sofa to the side, holding a teacup in her hand, and looked at me with a smile on her lips.
"Well......" I muffled, "why are you alone?"
"Everyone else is eating in the front room. Rei Miyamoto said, putting down the teacup.
"Really......" I raised my hand to wipe my sweat. ...... Why is it a bit of a headache...... Is it a cold......
"Why didn't you go to dinner?"
"Mom will bring it for me in a moment. Miyamoto said, "I'm going to guard Saya here." ”
"Saya......" I woke up suddenly, "Saya, how is she?!"
"Very good, the fever has subsided. Miyamoto said, "It is said that Bonnie woke up a while this morning while she was looking after her. ”
I relaxed a little and said, "That's okay...... OK...... So, what about the school doctor Jukawa?"
Miyamoto Li's face changed slightly, and she shook her head: "It's not very good." I haven't rested since I came back yesterday, and if it wasn't for the fact that I knocked her unconscious, I'm afraid I'm ......"
I reached out and covered my forehead: "Are you still blaming yourself......
...... The headache got a little worse......
"Hmm. It can't be helped. Miyamoto said, with a helpless expression.
"Speaking of which, it was the son who knocked me out. Yesterday. ”
"Who made you a little scary yesterday. Miyamoto said with a smile.
"Scary...... I was a little embarrassed, "Uh...... It's me who lost my temper. ”
"Well. It's okay.,It feels like the occasional Origi-kun is a little more real.。 She laughed.
"What...... What do you mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything. Miyamoto said, "I just don't feel surprised when you encounter anything you normally encounter, as if you expected it a long time ago, not like a normal person." ”
"Not like a normal person...... "Cold sweat oozed from my forehead,...... I know the plot...... Was it because I was too explicit before?......
"Yes...... Hahaha......" I laughed dryly.
"yes, but then it felt a lot less. Rei Miyamoto pondered for a moment, "Since when did it start......
"Ah, by the way, it seems that after escaping from Saya's house!"
“...... Uh......" The corners of my mouth twitched.
...... That's because I don't know the plot after that......
"Speaking of which, I admired you a little bit at the time, and it seems that as long as you are there, everyone will be fine!" Miyamoto Li smiled as if she remembered something.
"Exaggeration, I'm not that good, I don't worry about it every day, I'm afraid that something will happen. ”
"And you're also very reliable......, senior," Miyamoto said, "and sometimes you're very gentle." ”
"Huh...... It's okay, hahaha......" I scratched my head and laughed unnaturally.
Rei Miyamoto didn't say anything.;
