Chapter Thirty-Eight: Bitten

In the dense forest, a young girl and a more mature woman slowly walked forward.

"Saya, there's nothing wrong with the direction, why haven't you walked out for so long?" asked Shizuka Jukawa, wiping her sweat.

"Really, how could I be wrong! I'm a genius! I can't be wrong if it's the North here!" Saya Takajo said, but looking at the trees around her, she couldn't help but mutter.

...... Isn't that wrong......

Looking at the stubborn Saya Takashiro, Shizuka Jukawa couldn't help but sigh slightly, looking at the sky, although she couldn't see the sun, but through the change of light, she could know that the time was not early.

It's not safe here...... If you can't get out before dark, you're in trouble......

Shizuka Jukawa's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Sensei......" Saya Takashiro suddenly exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" asked Shizuka Jukawa.

"Did you hear anything?" said Saya Takajo, tilting her head sideways.

"Voice?" Shizuka Jukawa was stunned for a moment, listened carefully for a moment but didn't hear anything, "No...... Did you hear anything?"

"Didn't you?" said Saya Takajo hesitantly, "I think I heard a gunshot......

"Gunshots!?" Shizuka Jukawa perked up, "It must be Origi them!, where did they come from?"

Saya Takashiro shook his head: "I don't know, it was a very vague voice just now, I can barely make out it......"

A flash of disappointment flashed in Shizuka Jukawa's eyes, but then it disappeared: "It's okay, maybe it's an illusion! As long as we keep walking, we will definitely be able to get out." ”

"Hmm......" Saya Takajo nodded.

"Really...... Why do we have to stay and watch the house?" Miyamoto dissatisfied. She sat on the couch, her bayonet-loaded gun beside her, the blade glistening cold. "I want to go to Saya and Sensei too!!"

"Because we're women!" said Kiriko with a smile.

"What's wrong with the women! I'm no worse than the boys!" exclaimed Miyamoto Rei.

"That...... Miyamoto ...... Your gun is dangerous. Shizuko Sakai reminded.

"Ah...... I'm sorry......" Miyamoto Rei put away the bayonet on the gun and put it on the coffee table, and then said, "And we didn't go together when we were looking for Origi before!"

"Grandpa said that it was because of the lack of manpower that everyone went together...... Yuko said, "Now that Origi-kun and Hirano-kun have joined, there are enough people." ”

"Hmph......" Miyamoto Rei turned her head unhappily, still muttering in her mouth: "This is discrimination!"

Guiriko shook her head helplessly. Inadvertently, I saw Minami Sayaka standing outside looking at the sky and smoking.

Scold...... In fact, she is the most depressed!

Kiriko chuckled and stood up.

"Cut...... The old man or something, the most hateful. Nan Lixiang took a cigarette in her mouth, thinking of the words of the old man on the left, and couldn't help but be slightly annoyed.

"It's not good to speak ill of the old man secretly. ...... Give me one. ”

Minami Sayaka turned her head and saw Kiriko standing behind her.

Nan Lixiang was slightly surprised: "You smoke too?" she handed Gui Riko a cigarette and a lighter.

"When I was younger, I was a rampant for a while. Learn from others. Gui Riko's action of lighting a cigarette was a little rusty, and she sighed: "I haven't smoked it for a long time......"

"Then why do you want to smoke again?" Nan Sato Xiang glanced at Gui Riko, "It's because the world has become like this, and the so-called 'rules' are gone." ”

"Perhaps...... Right. "It's just that someone once told me that women shouldn't smoke...... Nothing more. ”

"That person is Leigh's father?" said Nan Lixiang.

"......" Kiriko was silent for a moment and shook her head.

Nan Li Xiang was slightly stunned.

"A man who died in that earthquake a long time ago......"

"Great earthquake...... ? ”

"Speaking of which, aren't you worried?" asked Kiriko, "Jukawa is in danger, and you can only stay here." ”

"Worried. Of course I'm worried!" Nan Lixiang snuffed out the cigarette butt violently, and said angrily, "That dead old man has to say that he can only take care of the safety of four people at most, and he can't take care of one more person, I ......"

Guiriko looked at Nan Rika in surprise with her usual maturity and calmness, revealing the annoyed look that only a little girl has.

"Uh...... What he said is not without reason...... The zombies here are indeed much more powerful than we've seen before, and this time we're going deep into the jungle."

"What's the reason! I still use him to take care of him??hmph!I'm just an old man!" Nan Lixiang said indignantly, but her voice was a little quieter when she thought of the old man's knife technique that was so fast that it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye.

But no matter how powerful he is, I won't fall to the point of being protected by her!

Nan Lixiang's eyes lit up when she thought of this,...... I can leave and find it myself......

"Quiriko, I'll go to the bathroom. Nan Li Xianghu's mood improved. "Smoke it yourself!"

Gui Rizi, who was smoking on the side, glanced at Nan Lixiang in surprise: "Hmm...... Why are you suddenly in such a good mood?"

"Nothing!" Minami Satoka laughed, turning to leave.

"How big is this forest!!" Saya Takajo looked angrily at the seemingly never-ending forest in front of him, "If it goes on like this, it will be dark!"

"But at least it's not going in the wrong direction, it's obviously going up. Shizuka Jukawa said.

"That being said...... "Saya Takajo sat on the ground angrily, "when is it a head!"

"Hey, don't be discouraged! Shizuka Jukawa laughed.

As soon as the words fell, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from behind a tree, and immediately threw Saya Takashiro to the ground, and before Shizuka Jukawa could react, a big fishy mouth had bitten on Saya Takashiro's forearm.

"Ahh

My heart jumped, and my chest felt a pang.

"What's wrong?" I frowned, "this bad feeling......

"Is there a clue?" heard the old man's voice.

"Nope. Mu Ye Pusang shook his head.

"No clues...... ? "I lowered my head, it was too inefficient for everyone to be together so far...... We're going to need a few more teams to find people. But the old man is so stubborn......

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance up at the old man. Sigh secretly.

"We'll never find them if we go on like this!" Komuro couldn't help it, and he said loudly, "We must spread out and look for it! Otherwise, we can only find a needle in a haystack!

"Brush!!" A cold light appeared, and Komuro's voice stopped abruptly.

The tip of the old man's knife was facing Komuro's throat, and the cold light emitted from the knife shone on Komuro's face, causing the latter's pupils to instantly shrink to the extreme.

"Old gentleman......," I exclaimed.

"Boy, don't be too self-righteous!!" the old man said, with a terrifying glint in his half-squinted eyes, "With strength like yours, you can't save yourself!"

After a short period of stunned speech, Komuro said fearlessly: "Even if you want to use force, it is the same, only by dividing several teams to act separately is the best choice, in order to find them as quickly as possible!

"Tsk......" The old man on the left door held the knife tightly, "Boy, aren't you afraid of death?"

Komuro Takashi looked the old man in the eye: "Compared with my own life, there is something more important! I have sworn a long time ago that I will never let any of my companions have an accident!!"

My heart was shocked.

The old man was moved, as if he was looking at Komuro Takashi as if he were meeting for the first time.

"Dry ...... What are you doing?" Komuro looked a little hairy at him.

"Hmph, a boy who likes to say pretty things. As he spoke, the blade was withdrawn, and the old man waved his hand: "Okay, boy, I hope you don't hang up yourself before you find them." ”

"If you want to go with this guy, go by yourself! The old man turned away.

"I'm going to go with Komuro!" said Kota Hirano.

Then both of them looked at me.

I scratched my head and said, "And me." ”

Komuro Takashi and Kota Hirano laughed.

"Saya, Saya!" said Shizuka Jukawa anxiously.

Saya Takashiro lay in her arms, eyes closed.

I don't know what the reason is, the zombie turned around and fled after biting Saya Takagi, and Saya Takagi fell into a coma the moment he was bitten.

Shizuka Jukawa hugged Saya Takashiro tightly, and couldn't help but think back to the consequences of those she saw who had been bitten by zombies. Has this kind of thing finally happened to us...... How could it be......

Shizuka Jukawa gritted her teeth, and two tears slipped down.

...... Will she become that kind of monster too? the kind of monster that feeds on human flesh......

What should I do? Kill her?

There seemed to be that whistling in my ears, and the scene of Poison Island Tsunako breaking Ishii's head with a wooden knife seemed to be still in front of me.

Suddenly shuddered, Shizuka Jukawa stood up suddenly.

No, I can't do that!

"Is it really okay to let them go?" asked Mu Ye Poussin.

The old man on the left door smiled: "Who knows." He also has a point, this is to save people. And after all, I can't always use my own hands to protect everyone, maybe I'm wrong in itself. ”

Mu Ye Poussin shrugged.

"Anyway, after all, they are a few young people who deserve respect. The old man on the left said, "Then let's continue to look for it." ”

"Hmm. Mu Ye Pusang nodded and turned away.

The old man walked behind him.

"Do you swear to protect your companions......" he whispered in a voice that only he could hear.

............

"Speaking of which, what you said just now is really powerful, it is really unimaginable to be able to convince that Zuomen master!" I praised from the bottom of my heart.

"That's right, that old gentleman looks very powerful, but I didn't expect you to be really calm in the small room. Kota Hirano looked impressed.

"Yes...... Is there one?" Komuro touched the back of his head, hehehe, laughed.

"And how do we find it?" I asked.

"Huh?" Komuro was stunned, "just look around, how else can I find it, I don't have Uncle Poussin's special abilities." ”

"Uh......"

"Poof!"

The bullet shot out through the silencing barrel with a low sound, and one of Minami Rika's zombies fell on its back with a thumb-thick bloody hole in its forehead.

"Shizuka, wait for me, I'll go back and save you!";
