Tokyo: Parasite

Chapter 346: 116: Zombie Train

The old train was running on the rails, clanging along, and diving into the area under the thick dark clouds ahead.

Da da da.

The sky quickly turned gloomy, as if it was turning into night. Raindrops suddenly began to fall, until it became a downpour, hitting the train windows with a sound like popping beans, and the whole process took no more than ten seconds.

A hint of the unique smell of the tropical rainforest seemed to penetrate the gap and enter the interior of the car, and then was quickly covered by the turbid air in the train.

No locals were surprised. After all, this is Rio, a tropical region, and heavy rains are not uncommon here.

However, some tourists who came to experience the trip in depth were worried that it would be troublesome to get off the bus and delay their trip as they looked at the almost completely dark weather and could hardly see what was happening one meter away due to the heavy rain.

But who knows, maybe this is also part of the fun of traveling?
The train carriages were very crowded today, probably because it was the school's Christmas holiday and the Holy See had come to the Stairway Church for a permanent stay, which attracted many passengers who made a special trip to travel there.

Loud talking, children playing, and videos playing mixed together into a noisy cacophony.

Most people find it difficult to fall asleep in such an environment, but there are also some geniuses who snore like thunder, and then in the crowded crowd, a hand quietly snatches away the wallet he was protecting.

Some people saw it, but did not try to stop it. They just silently held on to their belongings more tightly.

Backpacker Makoto Ito was leaning against the corner of the carriage, his face hidden by a mask and hood, looking weird.

However, this deliberate concealment did not attract anyone's attention because he had always activated his ability to hide.

Therefore, no one pushed towards him, as if from the perspective of others, it was assumed that there was an air wall in this place and no one could get close.

Almost everyone was unaware of his existence.

Of course, he could rely on this ability to comfortably go to sleeper cars or dining cars with fewer people, but without the cover of the crowd, his attire would be extremely conspicuous, and the surveillance and inspection efforts in those places would be relatively strong. Since he had taken action in this country, I'm afraid the authorities would be monitoring and tracking him.

If it appears alone, it can be easily analyzed by the AI ​​that is widely used today.

At this time, he was really envious of many extraordinary people, who found changing their appearance as easy as breathing.

It seems like it is an extraordinary standard.

Taking a deep breath, listening to the heavy rain hitting the window, he looked up in annoyance, feeling uncomfortable all over.

He knew that this was a hydrophobia attack.

Even the sound of water was hard to control.

Now he really has become a Charmander, even though he can obviously control water.

Now, all he could do was reach out his hand and manipulate the raindrops to converge the water flow, changing the impact on the carriage and reducing the noise.

To other people's ears, it sounds like the rain has become lighter.

But it seemed that, apart from the fact that it did not hit the car windows, the rain and fog were so heavy that the scenery at a distance was completely invisible.

It’s just that many people don’t take it seriously and don’t realize how strange this situation is.

There was a high school student who opened his eyes wide, leaned against the window, and looked incredulous, as if he had discovered some miracle.

He kept muttering, "How is this possible?!" "Physics doesn't exist!" "Is it a special kind of convective weather? The geography teacher didn't teach us that!"

The adults next to me had no such awareness at all and were busy chatting with fellow passengers they met on the bus. Even the college student opposite me lost interest after just one glance and continued to watch short videos for fun.

"You also came back from the Ladder Church after attending church services? What a coincidence! I took advantage of the opportunity when the Pope was there, but unfortunately I didn't get to meet Pastor Brand and the others."

"Then you must have attended the recent mass. I feel a lot lighter."

"I heard that there were several incidents in Rio recently, but they were quickly resolved by the extraordinary people of the Holy See. Oh, it would be great if our country had extraordinary people of its own."

"That can't be said. If there are too many extraordinary people, it will be hard to control, like Japan now."

"That's right. There were always a lot of Japanese people coming here, and it has become more and more common in recent years. My remote town now has a Japanese street. Haha, in a few years, I don't know who will have the final say in this country."

"There are too many extraordinary people in Japan. It is impossible for the government to boycott them, unless they find other extraordinary forces to support them. I don't know if the Holy See is willing to do so. In any case, we are all the Lord's people."

"Who knows."

The topics people talk about are nothing more than national affairs, Christmas plans and family matters.

It's tiring to play with your phone all the time on the train, and chatting with strangers is also a way to pass the time.

"Hmm? Why does the car seem to have slowed down? It's still some distance away from Bello."

As the train slowed down more and more obviously, people began to get agitated and expressed their own guesses.

"Dear passengers, please note that there is a track abnormality on the road ahead. We plan to repair it when the rain stops. Please be patient and wait for the train to restart. Dear passengers."

The carriage broadcast sounded and repeated it three times, and everyone understood the reason.

Many people breathed a sigh of relief, at least there was no landslide. Otherwise, based on the official efficiency they knew, they would definitely be unable to pass in a short period of time, and they would have to return the original route and then consider other means of transportation.

Rumble.

Outside the train, as if in response to the broadcast, a blinding flash of lightning pierced through the dark clouds, bestowing fireworks, followed by extremely loud rumbling thunder.

It rained harder.

It is so rare that even the original inhabitants of the rainforest find it rare.

"In this horrible weather, I still have to hurry back to decorate the Christmas tree."

"Let your husband handle it."

"Damn it, when I ask him to do something, he's either busy here or in pain there."

"If your husband doesn't listen, it's probably because he's been spoiled. People like me don't dare to disobey."

He glanced at the person who said this and grinned. With your weight class, who dares not to listen? Didn't you see that the guy sitting next to you was squeezed so hard that his face turned pale? He looked like a dead person.

Hmm. Like a dead person?
As soon as a passenger had such a strange thought, the poor guy who looked like a dead person in his eyes and had been squeezed against the window for a long time suddenly seemed to be unable to bear it anymore. He started to resist and bit the other person's thick fat.

My goodness, after taking a sip like that, wouldn’t you have to drink two kilograms of green tea to wash away the greasiness?
wrong!

Is now the time to think about this?!
The man dropped his jaw in shock and subconsciously pointed his finger at the woman.

“You, you you!!”

"What do you mean? Are you stuttering? You can't even speak clearly, so stop pointing fingers at me." The woman didn't know if it was because her defense was too strong that she didn't notice it at first and thought that the man was not used to what she had just said.

"No! The guy next to you!" He finally came to his senses, but at this time, he had already seen the blood seeping through his clothes.

"Ahhhhh!!! Let go! Pervert! Flight attendant! Flight attendant, come here quickly, sister, help me push him away!"

The woman reacted belatedly. Looking at the piece of flesh on her waist that was bitten tightly, she let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, instantly drowning out all other sounds in the car and attracting everyone's attention.

"Haha." The man who bit the woman was still waving his claws around, scratching several people and leaving several bloody cuts.

"Zombie! Zombie!!" someone suddenly screamed.

In the past half month, the name of the revenant has become extremely popular. Of course, it is mainly due to the zombie culture. Anyone who has watched two similar movies will not say such stupid things as telling the zombie not to continue when seeing it.

Upon hearing the famous name of the zombie, the woman who was bitten and the person who had just tried to help the person who was captured all turned pale and changed color.

Even though the surroundings were crowded, people would still desperately scream and squeeze into even the smallest gap.

In an instant, the carriage was in chaos.

"Fake! This is a liar! He must be a mental patient!"

The woman screamed, and her eyes slowly turned completely white without her noticing.

This is completely confirmed. =
"Roar--"

"Ah!"

The high school students who had originally run away to watch the excitement were pushed to the front of the crowd without realizing it. They wanted to go back, but found that a human wall had been formed and they couldn't get through at all!
The resurrected corpse finally let go, and the woman was completely transformed into a new resurrected corpse. Even the people who were scratched became dazed.

"Hoohoo!"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The woman was like a tank, ready to pounce on the nearest uninfected high school student.

"Don't come over here!"

The high school student peed his pants, feeling desperate about the tonnage difference and having no chance of resistance at all.

Snapped!
When the high school student came to his senses, there was only one foot left in front of him, and the woman was kicked away.

"These things are just trying to make things difficult for me, right?"

Ito Makoto's face was gloomy.

He just wanted to stay away from disputes completely and be a good travel expert. He has tried his best to avoid the center of the vortex, but why does it seem that the vortex just likes to suck him towards it?

Relax your ankle. That kick wasn't easy at all.

He has neither a rigid body nor extraordinary strength.

Without using [Burning] and [Raging Waves], it has almost no basic physical attack capability, relying entirely on water and fire damage.

Even his immunity to physical damage can only take effect after activating the [Firework Knight] ability.

Therefore, with his current physical condition, it is almost the limit of what an ordinary human can achieve.

But the problem is that in a small and crowded place like a carriage, it is difficult to micro-control the flame. If it is too violent, it will easily destroy all the oxygen nearby. When you look back later, oh no, they are all dead from lack of oxygen.

"Roar!"

The remaining resurrected corpses ignored their companions who had been hit hard to the side, and instead accelerated towards Ito.

"Go, knock open the window."

Ito said something in English to the high school student.

The high school student came to his senses, nodded tremblingly at Ito, and ran towards the window on the other side.

Ito did not use his fire ability, but simply relied on his strength to fight against the zombies.

"hammer!"

The crowd was rushing frantically towards another carriage, but some people stopped, took out the battering hammers from the crowd and threw them at the high school students.

The high school student quickly took it and hit the corner of the window with the hammer, doing what he had been trying to do many times in his mind.

With a few bangs, the train carriages were smashed to pieces, and violent storms immediately swept in.

At this moment, a long river of water fell from the sky and poured in through the broken car window, instantly flushing several zombies out of the window on the other side.

"extraordinary!"

The high school student woke up and realized that he had encountered a supernatural being.

Ito Makoto did not feel relieved. He could sense that the trouble had just begun.

At the same time, because he was surrounded by water, his hydrophobia was aroused and his sense of strength was rapidly lost.

The angry waves could not perform very delicate operations. He could only make most of the water flow converge and avoid him, but he could not completely avoid the water mist that was blown in by the wind.

"Ahh! Zombies, there are zombies all over there!"

The people who had just run to other carriages ran back again, bringing bad news.

However, those who had just seen Ito display his supernatural powers were not so scared anymore. According to official statements, these resurrected corpses were not truly supernatural beings. So now that there was a truly supernatural being in the car, nothing should happen, right?
Ito held his breath and walked towards another carriage without saying a word. Everyone gave up their seats automatically or forcedly.

The high school students looked at the broken windows and saw that many people had already jumped out of the windows frantically. Even though there was a heavy rainstorm outside with visibility less than a few meters, it could not stop their determination to escape from this zombie train.

He clenched the hammer in his hand and did not follow. Instead, he mustered up his courage and followed behind Ito Seigo.

Ito ignored it and continued to move forward with the crowd in the opposite direction until he reached the connection between the two carriages, which was the most chaotic place.

People who tried to squeeze through the crowd, people who were thrown to the ground or the wall of the car, and "people" who turned into zombies and crawled up from the bloody floor.

It looked exactly like a scene from a classic zombie movie.

Blood was splattered all around, and screams and roars were heard everywhere.

But at least, apart from the blood, it was dry.

Ito wiped the water droplets off his face and his eyes became colder. In this situation, the car in front might have already fallen.

So he raised his hand, and a stream of hot flame burst out like a vertical tornado, causing the people following behind him to open their mouths slightly.

To be honest, this scene is nothing compared to the extraordinary highlights on the Internet, but being there, the feeling is completely different from watching the video. Even if it is not directed at them, the high temperature in their faces makes people dizzy.

The flames licked it, leaving it charred.

There was no residual fire on the corpse and flammable materials because they had all been put away by Ito.

Ito didn't stop, turned around and walked towards another carriage.

It was raining outside and he wasn't going anywhere.

As long as all the resurrected corpses are killed, there will be peace here.

But not surprisingly, his travel plans fell through.

Voodoo, right? He took this matter to heart. When he returned to Rio, he went to the Holy See immediately to help them deal with this sect that was more troublesome than the fake ones.
