Furusawa Senjima was in a drowsy state when he smelled the smell of rotting food and the faint pain that his head passed on to him, which prompted him to open his eyes.

Looking around, the garbage can is not far away, a girl with a slightly cold body temperature is holding herself in a completely embraced posture, looking only thirteen or fourteen years old, but her face reveals the thinness and blue-white of perennial malnutrition.

Furusawa Qiandao raised his hand, and the slight abnormality on his body made him quickly realize that something was wrong.

- This hand is a little too small, it doesn't look like the hand of a man in his twenties at all.

“…… No, it's not ......."

Stunned, he got up straight from the damp paper he was lying on, touched himself up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief and noticed something was wrong.

His gaze returned to the girl, even if Furusawa Qiandao jumped up with excitement just now, she didn't have any signs of waking up, and his blue face made him have a bad premonition, so he stretched out a finger and probed under her nose, and put the other hand on the girl's wrist.

Furusawa Qiandao frowned, his eyes staring at the girl with a hint of hope.

The cold body temperature and breathless body put the answer in front of his eyes clearly—she was dead, and judging by the current temperature, she had not been dead for a long time, judging by the memories left in her body, maybe it was last night.

- This girl is "his" sister, although she is not a blood relative, but in Yokohama, where this kind of war and chaos are staged together, she treats "him" very well just by chance, and is not a person who intends to sell herself, and for Furuzawa Senjima, who is currently only eleven years old, she is already a person as good as her parents who were accidentally separated in the chaos and escape in her memory.

The cause of death was the high fever caused by an unexpected rainstorm, and both lonely children died last night.

It's no wonder that I have been feeling that my body temperature is still a little abnormally hot, and my limbs are weak and my mind is dizzy when I got up just now.

"Why...... Forget about crossing, suddenly let me face this kind of thing again! Furusawa Qiandao gritted his teeth unwillingly, slowly withdrew his hand, and clenched his fists.

He remembered that he was still at home before the crossing, and a few days ago he had just confirmed that he had taken the public examination and went ashore, but after finishing the work that he had been working hard for three years after graduation, he put down his tense nerves, took a lazy nap, and had hardly stayed up all night before, how could something like sudden death happen that triggered the crossing? !

It's like watching the iron rice bowl that has just arrived in your hand be an empty dream, and if you describe the mood of Furusawa Qianjima, it must be a large number of shielding words.

Although this is not the job I really want to do, but I have been following what others say - this is better, more stable, and there is room for improvement, so I gritted my teeth and took the exam for three consecutive years under the incomprehension and pressure of my family and the outside world, but isn't this already a success?

But who would really give up a peaceful life and go to a world where war is not to mention, and mafia and alien crimes are rampant to survive!! When I watch it, it's really just a mouth!

And now he is in Yokohama, and he has traveled to the world of the writer Wild Dog who has supernatural abilities - all he knows about the history of this world is the failure of the Everdark Island project for the time being, but the supernatural war? What is that? Not to mention the urban legends of people with supernatural abilities that don't sound like scientific logic.

Just when Furusawa Qianjima didn't quickly change his mood because of an empty joy, a series of footsteps came from the notch of the garbage can, and he couldn't help but look sideways vigilantly.

"Brother Qiandao! We've got the medicine! We've got medicine to reduce fever! Several children shouted with joy and rushed straight to them, and one of them handed over the object that was clutched tightly in his hand.

Furusawa looked at them, then at the several wet pills lying on their dirty hands, and took them in silence.

"Thank you...... However, maybe Sister Huima shouldn't use it. ”

The excited faces of the children quickly lowered when they saw the girl's corpse, but their eyes revealed a kind of habituality for the dead.

"Ah, is that so, Sister Huima, she's gone too......" A boy expressed his sadness dryly, but he didn't know what to say at this time, and looked at Furusawa Qianjima, "That, Brother Qianjima, do you still want this medicine?" If you don't need it......"

Before he could finish speaking, Furusawa Qiandao had already swallowed the pills that looked particularly suspicious, leaving a few children who were still bitter after taking the medicine dumbfounded.

If he didn't take it, the high fever that recurred would still make him die, and he could only find a way to survive now if he gambled on the medicine they brought, even in Yokohama, which was reduced to a concession after the war, he believed that there was still a way to survive.

"Water, water...... Do you have water? A girl asked blankly, and after coming back to her senses, she hurriedly turned her head to look at a few companions next to her, "This will choke on!" ”

"Ahh That's right! The pills will choke inside! ”

"But we're looking for medicine! I didn't look for water! ”

"What to do...... Could it be that Brother Qiandao is also going to die...... Woowoo...... In that case, there are only two eldest children in our organization, Brother Dong and Sister Yuzi...... Woowoo woo ......"

Furusawa Qiandao had a headache, and quickly got up to comfort them: "I'm not dead, I won't choke to death, my throat and eyes are relatively big, so I won't choke on medicine...... Don't believe me. ”

He opened his mouth to give them a look and touched the head of the crying child, "Thank you." ”

Fortunately, several children have experienced a lot of things, and seeing that there is really no major event in Furuzawa Qianjima, they quickly put their minds at ease and talked about the second thing they came here in addition to delivering medicine.

"By the way, Brother Qiandao, Sister Yuzi and Brother Dong want to ask you something," After the child who handed the medicine calmed down, he still looked a little reliable, "I originally wanted you to go with Sister Huima, but ......"

Now Huima is dead, and only Furusawa Senjima is left.

Furusawa Qiandao nodded, looked at the already cold corpse next to him, and said, "Huima, sister, she has already told me before, if she dies one day...... What should I do with such assumptions. ”

- Wandering orphans don't need mausoleums, they don't need loess, they just need to be thrown into the sea gently like everyone else.

She was glad that Yokohama was close to the sea, so her body would not be washed ashore, but would be quickly eaten by the fish in the sea.

Furusawa Qianjima sensed from memory Meima's relief at death - in an environment where everyone wanted to live desperately, this girl had already been calm about death.

The others didn't know what Huima said to Furuzawa Qianjima, so they could only look at each other after he finished speaking.

"That'...... Brother Qiandao is after burying Sister Huima, hurry up and gather at the old place, Brother Dong and Sister Yuzi are waiting for you. When they had finished their instructions, they left the place.

After all, not everyone will pity the wandering orphans, and now that Yokohama has been divided into foreign countries after the war, and the entire city is still in turmoil, such sufferings are endless, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to live well.

Furusawa Chijima waved goodbye to them, then struggled to pick up Huima's body and walked closer to the sea.

Fortunately, Furusawa Qiandao used to grow up in the care of his parents, and his strength was greater than that of ordinary children even after two months of wandering, and it was only barely enough to pick up the skinny Huima, but there was still a long way to go from the city all the way to the beach.

He knew that Yokohama had a cliff near the sea, and Fumino had appeared in the story about Dazai Nakaya being fifteen years old, and he guessed that it should be closer and safer than if he had walked to the beach.

Because of Yokohama's geographical location, the most dangerous place in a harbor city that has been reduced to a concession is the seaside on the shore, and a helpless child is in danger of being killed by a foreigner as a malicious enemy, even if he passes by there.

What's more, the current streets of Yokohama are not suitable for children to wander around, so he can only rely on the roads in his memory to find some small roads that are not dangerous.

That cliff became the best choice for Furusawa Senjima at this time.

After stopping and stopping to finally find the cliff, Furuzawa Senjima used what little strength he had left to drag and half-carry Huima all the way here, tied a large stone around her waist, and let the stone fall into the sea with the corpse.

With a faint sound, Furusawa Qiandao couldn't even see the splash, and the figure in that memory who had been taking care of himself for two months sank into the waves.

"Rest in peace, Huima, and ...... Furusawa Senjima. He folded his hands in front of him and whispered to the sea, then turned without mercy and hurried to the place where their group had their usual meeting.

They said they were holding meetings, but in fact, they had to come back almost every day, almost all of them worried about the dangers and food supply problems on the streets every day, and occasionally mixed with some worries and plans about what they would be like in the future—although in the eyes of Furusawa Senjima now, they were just some unrealistic fantasies that could support their continued existence.

The location is behind a tree in the northwest of Yokohama Central Park, and when Furusawa Senjima passed, there were already two people waiting there, the boy was the one known as Dongge, who walked around in circles around the neighborhood restlessly, while the girl Tamako was comforting him while looking out from time to time, and only after discovering the figure of Furuzawa Senjima did she pull Winter with joy.

"Qiandao, you're finally here! What about Hui Ma? Yuzi looked around for a while, but didn't see another figure, and only after asking did she realize that she realized her reaction, closed her mouth and changed the topic and said to Dong: "Dong, there shouldn't be any problems with you recently." ”

"Well, we've taken in a few new members, and there's a total of seventeen people from the previous ones." Dong also found out, followed Tamako's words, and looked at Furuzawa Qianjima, "We don't have enough manpower, even if we add a few children who are already sensible, it will be very difficult to support everyone by relying on us people." ”

"It's very hot now, and there is very little food to eat every day, and we don't even let go of the garbage cans, except for some very dangerous places, basically relying on the help of the store manager and well-wishers, and the occasional official relief food...... If this continues, let alone winter, we may not even survive this month. Tamako spoke, her voice getting quieter and quieter.

He grabbed the topic and continued: "And there are younger children among us, if there is no way to increase the food, we may have to find a way to steal or rob to survive, and the threat to our lives is greater, but if we don't, sooner or later, groups like ours will have to be disbanded." What do you think? ”

Dong didn't have the same morality as Tamako, or he had thought about going down such a path from the very beginning.

- Maybe it's also a little bit of sacrificing a few people to continue to maintain the group.
