Tokyo people don't talk about Wude

Chapter 375 372. Please Eat Me
In the dark dungeon, even the passage of time is blurred.

□□□I don’t remember how long I stayed in the [Abandoned Pit]. Oscar said he should have stayed there for four or five months, but this was just a rough estimate and could not be called accurate.

During this period, □□□ kept doing two things repeatedly.

Dig tunnels and hunt monsters.

His eyes were as empty as a zombie, with almost no trace of humanity, which made his already zombie-like face look even more terrifying. The corners of his mouth were covered with dirt and blood, and he was too lazy to even wipe it off.

Oscar knew exactly why he had become so miserable and felt a little guilty about it, but he could do nothing about it.

"Hey, tell me." Once, before □□□ went out hunting, Oscar suddenly suggested: "Bring me some food. I'm hungry."

□□□ stopped, looked back at him with a little surprise, and then staggered towards the depths of the dungeon.

After a long time, □□□ came back covered in blood, with his left hand pinching the back of the neck of a rabbit corpse.

This rabbit is a circle larger than the ordinary ones of its kind, its fur is festering and full of maggots, and its mouth has fangs that do not belong to a rabbit. It must also be a victim of the [Synthetic Animal Experiment].

But compared to most of the disgusting monsters, this rabbit can be called "normal food".

"That's very thoughtful." Oscar smiled at him gratefully, "Please feed me. I really can't move."

□□□torn off a small piece of flesh with his hands and stuffed it into Oscar's mouth.

Oscar took a few bites with great effort and swallowed it with a "gulp".

"Look. Haha, we are accomplices, so stop looking so sad." Oscar licked the blood at the corner of his mouth and smiled casually:
"Actually, before I met you, I also ate the corpses of monsters here. After all, I was trying to survive. I had no choice. I know you are in pain, but you did nothing wrong. Don't blame yourself too much."

"."□□□ said nothing, his eyes were dead. He tore off another piece of rabbit meat with his dirty fingers and put it to Oscar's mouth.

Oscar ate it with gritted teeth.

After feeding him five or six pieces, Oscar said he couldn't eat any more, so □□□ threw the rabbit's body away and went back to digging.

Oscar looked at □□□'s receding figure, feeling melancholy.

His consolation just now was clearly very effective, but it had no effect on the boy. This poor child had become possessed.

"Hmm" Oscar's stomach cramped. His broken body could no longer digest any meat, let alone this monster rabbit meat that was neither hygienic nor cooked.

His stomach was probably like a large piece of fruit that couldn't be chopped was thrown into a juicer, causing the machine to completely jam.

Another three or four months passed, and the tunnels dug by □□□ became longer and longer. Although it was still a long way to escape, □□□ did not stop.

There are piles of corpses in the [abandoned pit], and the number of living things is rapidly decreasing. □□□'s hunting results are getting less and less, but it can still support his consumption. I don't know how many failed experiments the KJ organization has abandoned here.

Oscar's health condition became very bad or worse. He would bend over and twitch every few days, saying that he had a stomachache.

But he hasn't died yet. He just continues to hold on, remaining in a state worse than death.

Until one day, when □□□ was out hunting, a round spherical robot about half the height of an adult rolled and crawled to the place where he had dug a hole, and its scarlet mechanical lens carefully scanned the hole.

"Hello." Oscar saw it, felt quite curious, and showed a pale smile.

This dungeon is filled with only dilapidated and deformed monsters, but this robot looks very delicate. It does not look like a waste product of a failed experiment, but rather like someone put it in here on purpose.

"Crunch-crunch-buzz-buzz--"

The robot shook its head for a while, then crawled to Oscar's front, and a mechanical sound came out of its body:
[Executing protocol - Looking for - P01 - Identification failed -]

"P01. Ahem." Oscar coughed with difficulty. "He will be back soon. Wait for a moment."

The robot shook its head and made a sound:
[Accepting suggestions——Wait here——Analyzing——Adopting suggestions——Stay here for 3 hours——]

Suddenly, the sound of dragging footsteps was heard from deep in the dungeon. □□□ had returned.

The moment he saw the robot, □□□'s eyes lit up red and he rushed forward to attack, obviously identifying the robot as an enemy.

"Stop it. Calm down!" Oscar gritted his teeth and shouted, "It wants something from you!"

Hearing this, □□□ stopped attacking, slowly walked up to the robot, and looked at it indifferently.

The robot scanned □□□ for a while and said:

[Verification passed——Identity confirmed as P01——Next play the audio——from Bonfire Night Otonashi——]

"."□□□'s eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just stood there quietly, staring at the robot.

[Zizi-zizi-zi] A series of noises came from inside the robot, followed by a slightly hoarse female voice:

[Hello, if this recording is successfully played, it proves that it has successfully found P01, that is, you who are listening. If you still remember my voice, you should know my identity.]

[I am Yeyou Tianyin, you should already know that my real name is Kagaya Otonashi. For the past six months, I have been closely monitoring you as a street fortune teller.]

[There is no communication signal in the abandoned pit, and no communication equipment can connect to it, so this is the audio I recorded in advance. In other words, this is a one-sided communication from me.]

[To make a long story short, although I belong to the KJ organization, I have changed my mind a long time ago and no longer want to associate with these inhumane lunatics. I have been undercover in the KJ organization, looking for opportunities to disrupt their plans. ]

[No. P01. I'm sorry that I can only call you this, because I can't think of any other name that suits you. The name 'Jiuzhou Cheng' probably doesn't suit you anymore. Oh, how about I call you 'Hongzhong Xiaoge'! Well, that's good! ]

[Ever since I injected you with a fake death drug and sent you to the waste pit, I have been looking for a way to rescue you. Hard work pays off, and I have found it.]

[No, actually this is a way of escape that you found yourself. This is a miracle that you caused yourself. As always, you are indeed an incredible person.]

[According to my judgment, you should be digging a tunnel to escape from the abandoned pit. This is a very correct decision, and I am planning to assist you.]

[This robot contains a map that I compiled. Use it to check your location. It will be helpful to you.]

【In addition, I brought you a gift.】

[Energy replenishment pack for soul battery. With this, you should be able to hold on for a while. Sorry, this is all I can secretly take out of the laboratory.]

[I can't understand the actual situation in the abandoned pit, but I hope my guess is correct. I hope you can escape from here as soon as possible, and we will meet on the ground.]

[After this, Hongzhong, please join hands with me to fight against KJ and the Undead Institution Ryujin.]

[Beep——! 】

The recording is over.

"Hey, is there really a way to escape?" Oscar showed a rare smile: "I really heard you right at the beginning. Someone will rescue you. It's true."

“So what?” There was no change on □□□’s face, no sign of sadness or joy.

The spherical robot opened the top cover, revealing a fluorescent pill and a map. □□□ took the pill, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

Suddenly, a hot current like a spring flowed through his limbs, and he felt that the [soul battery] in his body was replenished. This was a refreshing feeling that could not be compared to swallowing the brains of dozens of monsters.

"Tsk." □□□ frowned disdainfully and turned to walk towards the cave:
"Iron Lump, stay still and don't act rashly, or I'll tear you apart."

[Agreement—Comply—Standby—Execute—]

The spherical robot rolled to Oscar's side and lay quietly on the ground.

In the following days, □□□ continued to spend time digging the tunnel.

The robot would occasionally roll over to check on the progress. It also had a built-in clock function to remind them what year, month and time it was.

It was thanks to this robot that □□□ realized that he had been in the [Abandoned Pit] for seven months.

After that, another seven months passed.

Finally, after □□□'s fourteenth month in the [Abandoned Pit], he succeeded.

A simple tunnel of dozens of meters, this is what he has achieved in more than a year. According to the map of Bonnet Otonashi, he has dug under the seabed of the North Pacific Ocean, and there is only a wall between him and the seabed.

At this moment, the robot will execute the final command - self-destruct, blasting open the last passage for him.

At that time, seawater will flow back in. Zombie weapons can hold their breath underwater for hours without dying, so it is more than enough for him to swim out along the seawater.

□□□ carried Oscar to the cave entrance. The excavation robot was ready and could execute the self-destruction program at any time.

In fourteen months, □□□'s appearance has changed dramatically.

His body became stronger due to the long-term excavation work. His limbs and torso were wrapped with refined muscles. His height also increased by at least five centimeters, making him much taller than before.

However, his fingers and some joints were deformed, his nails were broken and cracked, and it seemed that there was no possibility of repair. His unkempt black hair fell to his waist, and his skin was covered with corpse spots and bloodstains, messy and dirty. The youth's face no longer had the vitality it once had, and only a corpse-like face and deep sunken eyes remained.

"Detonate it." □□□ looked at the excavation robot coldly and gave the order.

[Abide by the final agreement - initiate the self-destruction procedure - wish you - good luck in military affairs -]

The excavation robot stood deep in the tunnel, and its whole body was instantly surrounded by dazzling light, emitting dazzling heat. Then with a "boom", a deafening explosion tore through the air.

The entrance of the cave was blown open, and sea water rushed in like a tide, making a noisy "splashing" sound, which seemed very pleasant to the ear.

"Water, sea water. I can actually still see the sea water. Everything is over." Oscar murmured in disbelief as he watched the sea tide rushing into the dungeon. "I didn't expect this to be the [exit]. I can finally escape."

"Oh." □□□'s voice was emotionless, and no one could tell whether he was sad or happy.

"I can actually wait until this day." Oscar looked at □□□, his voice a little weaker: "You have worked so hard these days."

"I'll take you out, hold your breath." □□□ picked up Oscar and prepared to take him out of the dungeon against the tide.

"No wait." Oscar stopped her, "I can't escape like this. I'm just a burden to you."

His words were true. According to the map provided by Zouye Yinwu, they would enter an area 40 meters below sea level after leaving the [Abandoned Pit]. Ordinary people could not swim up from such a deep position in one breath without oxygen tanks and professional equipment, and the huge change in water pressure from deep water to shallow water was enough to kill ordinary people.

These difficulties are insignificant to P01, a zombie weapon, but Oscar is different. He is now more fragile than an ordinary person, and is only relying on his willpower to hold on. Once he enters the seabed, he will be greeted by a horrible death.

After all, this escape route was originally designed only for "zombie weapons" and did not take into account the possibility of ordinary people escaping.

"At this point, you don't want to leave again?" □□□ frowned impatiently and put Oscar down.

"No, I want to leave more than anyone else, so I should have died long ago, but I have been holding on until now." Oscar still sat against the wall, his tone was very excited:
"Now, I am satisfied to see this opportunity. I am very happy."

The white waves spread to Oscar's side, and his drooping fingers touched the cold sea water, and miraculously twitched.

"Hey, boy." Oscar looked at Jiuzhou Cheng and suddenly asked: "Since you are really P01, then the ability of [Ghoul] is also real, right?"

“.”□□□ nodded slightly and agreed.

"I have a request," Oscar said solemnly:
"Please eat me."

“!!!” □□□ frowned slightly and his body shook.

"Eat me. I have a lot of information about the KJ organization in my head. It will come in handy if you plan to take revenge on them." Oscar said proudly:
"Take the information out for me, and then please stop their conspiracy. Please."

"." A hint of hesitation appeared in □□□'s cold eyes, and his eyes trembled: "Why. Even you..."

"Don't look at me like that, young man." Oscar couldn't help but laugh, and his laugh was very miserable:
"Don't feel guilty. I'm already in a lot of pain. Just think of death as a way to help me get rid of it. Please, save me."

"Save" □□□ seemed to have recalled painful memories, and he shouted impatiently: "Don't say such cruel words to me, I can't save anyone!"

"Don't be like this. You've already saved me." Oscar comforted her, "I'm very grateful to have met you at the last moment of my life. I'm sorry that I couldn't help you much and ended up dragging you down."

"Stop talking. I obviously didn't save anyone." □□□ held his head with both hands, looking embarrassed: "I don't want to save anyone and I can't save anyone. I have to save each of you, but I can't save you and I don't want to save you!"

Oscar sighed and said, "You've done a great job. Listen, you're the only friend I've made here. So just treat it as a friend's request. Please. Save me. Set me free."

"I told you to stop talking." □□□ picked up Oscar like a rag bag and glared at him angrily: "You want me to eat you. Fine! This is your own request!"

"Yes. Thank you." Oscar smiled calmly: "Even at this point, you are still a kind person. I am honored to meet you at the last moment of my life."

"Damn it. I told you to stop talking." □□□ held Oscar's head with a ferocious and angry look on his face.

"Okay, then the last topic." Oscar asked again: "Young man, what's your name? I never knew it."

"I don't have a name." said □□□.

"Yes, after all, he is a poor monster, haha, just like me." Oscar smiled again and said:
"Before we say goodbye, let me give you a name. My friend should not be a nameless monster."

“.”□□□ looked at him without saying a word.

"That woman called you 'Little Brother Crimson'. Crimson means scarlet red; Ashen means ash and ember (Jhin)." Oscar frowned slightly, looking at the boy's bloodstained but bloodless face, and suggested:
"Crimson Jhin. How is it?"

"Whatever." Hong Zhongjin didn't really care about it, but he didn't dislike it either: "That's it, it's fine."

"Good. I'm glad you like it. Then Jhin, let's say goodbye now." Oscar made his final farewell:
"Remember, my name is Oscar Oscar F. Wedouwa! F stands for Fortune! Please take my soul, my destiny and my mission and escape from this cage together. Jhin, my friend!"

"I will remember your name. Goodbye then." Hong Zhongjin's eyes were empty and deep, but there was a trace of sadness and bitterness in them:

"Oscar F. Wedouwa."

After saying that, he opened his upper and lower jaws to 180 degrees, put his teeth on Oscar's withered head, and bit down.
