...
Yukinoshita Yukino stared blankly at the sky.
The sky here is no different from the sky in Japan in winter, just as depressing and dull. The only difference is that in this world, you never know when you might suddenly die.
Death was such a distant word to me just a few days ago, but after coming here, I am facing death almost every day, every hour, and every moment.
strangeness.
Yukinoshita Yukino said to herself in her heart, I seem to be beginning to miss the old world. Although it is boring, and although I feel like there is a mountain suppressing me all the time, they at least still care about me, right?
After I disappeared, would they search for me in a big way? Would it cause a stir in Chiba City?
Will she worry about me? No, she won't! In her heart, only my sister is the most important!
But sister, you must be crying anxiously. It would be great if I could go back alive. It’s only been a few days, but I miss her already…
"Yukinoshita-san, what are you thinking about?"
Ohga Taiyo's sunny and energetic voice interrupted Yukinoshita's contemplation. Turning around, he saw his brilliant smile. He stretched out his hand and handed something with an alluring aroma to Yukinoshita: "Although Hayama-san suggested that when collecting food, try not to take things that are bulky and difficult to carry, but I still secretly hid a box. You've worked hard today. Eat it while it's hot."
Looking at the cup of noodles handed over by Ohga Taiyo, Yukinoshita's eyes were full of helplessness. After staring at him for several seconds, she sighed softly: "Ohga-san, you should know that I have no time to think about love in this situation."
Yukinoshita's tone was gentle, not as cold and bland as usual, but her soft voice seemed as if all the ice and snow in the sky were poured onto Daha Taiyang's head. She tried to use a tactful tone, but it expressed the most straightforward rejection.
Ohga Taiyang's smile froze on his face, but he still forced his expression and held the bag flat in front of her, as if he would keep holding it like this unless Yukinoshita took it.
"Yukinoshita-san, you misunderstood. I saw you, a girl, trudging through the snow for a whole day, and I wanted to give you this to warm you up, just like Kitahara-san. I only care about you as a companion."
"Kitahara-san wouldn't be very enthusiastic with me about something like this."
Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head and continued, "Since it is a show of concern between companions, then please give this to Nakain Yuuka-san. She is frostbitten and deserves your concern more than me."
"If you really want to be friends with me, I would be very happy if you came to Chiba City after the trial is over."
After saying that, Yukinoshita Yukino turned around and walked into the villa. She didn't even look at the cup noodles in front of her that was steaming and emitting an enticing aroma.
Da He Taiyang was stunned. He slowly put down the cup and looked up at the sky that Yukinoshita Yukino had just stared at. It was still hazy, gloomy and desperate.
His stiff smile remained, but his palms clenched without him noticing.
Chapter 33: The Hard Road (Part 2)
"Is there no other way?"
Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at the group of people gathered around Miura Yumiko's bed, with a hint of pity in her eyes.
Yumiko Miura is sick. She has had a bad cold since yesterday, but she has been trying not to tell anyone until the middle of the night when Yukino Yukinoshita, who was sleeping next to her, discovered that she had a very high fever. Yumiko Miura is dizzy, has a headache, nausea, retching, and is exhausted. It has been difficult for her to get up from bed, and Hayato Hayama has been guarding her bedside all night.
When we first arrived in White Eagle City to collect supplies, we also looked in the pharmacy, but we only found some medicines for bruises and injuries in the looted pharmacy, which we discovered by accident at the bottom of the shelf. So we went back to the problem mentioned by Louis yesterday. What should we do now?
It was impossible to abandon her, but if I left her alone and continued on my back, there was no doubt that her condition would continue to worsen, and eventually her brain would be burned and cause meningitis, or even worse situations were not impossible.
"Yumiko...why didn't you say it earlier..."
Hayato Hayama called her name softly, holding her hand tightly against his cheek. His expression could not be seen, but from his suppressed voice, it could be heard that he seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Miura Yumiko lay weakly on the bed, trying to open her eyes. She looked at the painful Hayama Hayato with an extremely gentle expression. Although he was seriously ill, he looked very happy: "Hayato, you won't give up on me, right? You told me that no one would die anymore. I believe you."
Hayato Hayama slowly raised his head. With an ice pack on her forehead, Yumiko looked so fragile at this moment. Her charming and fiery face had faintly lost its color, and a trace of blood overflowed from her white and cracked lips. But she smiled happily and brightly. She did not say anything to ask everyone to give up on her, because she knew Hayato could not do it no matter what, but she was just very happy that Hayato cared about her so much.
"Yumiko, stop talking, stop talking..."
Hayato Hayama tried hard to hold back his sobs, tears almost overflowing from his eyes. He took a deep breath and managed a smile, then reached out and gently stroked her smooth and tender cheek: "There is a way, there must be a way, you will get better, Yumiko. After all this is over, I promise to go to karaoke with you. I won't refuse you again."
"I'm... ahem... looking forward to it, Hayato. I've asked you to go play after school before, but you always said you didn't have time. If I were sick and you could go with me, I would have done this... ahem... a long time ago."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Hayato Hayama interrupted Miura Yumiko with a shout, wanting to get angry but restraining himself: "Don't worry, Yumiko, there must be a way, please believe me."
He turned his head and looked at everyone around him, his eyes full of hope, without his usual gentleness and humility... He saw the optimistic Louis turn his face away and become silent, saw old Bill take off his hat and put it on his chest, Frances patted his shoulder gently, and Zoe silently wiped Miura Yumiko's cheek with a towel.
"There must be a way, there must be a way, right?! Why don't you say anything..."
Why, a simple cold and fever in normal times is so fatal at this time, why is everyone unwilling to help us, why am I the only one comforting Yumiko, why is it Yumiko, why can you still laugh...
"There are actually two ways, but they are somewhat dangerous."
In the silence, Kitahara Sora suddenly spoke, and Hayama Hayato's eyes were instantly fixed on him, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. Hayama Hayato stood up and tightly grasped Kitahara Sora's shoulders: "What can I do, Kitahara-san, please tell me, what can I do!"
Kitahara Sora looked at the completely panicked Hayato Hayama calmly, patted his arm gently, and waited until he relaxed before continuing, "First, there must be antipyretic drugs in the hospital in White Eagle City. Someone needs to walk back to the nearest hospital, find the drugs in the pharmacy, and return within a day."
"I'm going! I'm going now!"
"Hear me out."
Hayato Hayama suddenly realized what was going on, and with an excited look on his face, he immediately turned around and prepared to go downstairs, but was stopped by Kitahara Sora. He shook his head slightly and said something in a riddle: "Actually, there is something more convenient than antipyretic medicine..."
After saying that, Kitahara Sora held Hayama Hayato's palm tightly, with more and more force. While feeling pain, Hayama Hayato couldn't help but increase the strength of his hand. His muscles slowly bulged, and the veins in the tiger's mouth were revealed. In just a moment, he understood what the other party meant. The expression on his face turned into extreme joy as he suddenly realized something, and he glanced at Hirano Toda and Ohga Taiyo calmly.
Feeling this discordant and cold gaze, the two of them looked embarrassed and uncomfortable, and at the same time felt very guilty.
The trial participants present immediately understood what Hayato Hayama and Sora Kitahara wanted to express after they performed this series of actions. Since Bill and others were present and the rules strictly prohibited revealing any information about the trial game to them, Sora Kitahara held Hayato Hayama's hand tightly without worrying about the other party getting hurt. The reason was that his main attribute awakened after his body was repaired by the witch's core was strength.
In other words, if there was an evolution core at this time, this minor cold and fever would definitely not be a problem, but the two of them secretly fused the evolution core when there was nothing wrong with their bodies. Not to mention Hirano Toda, his core was given to him by Yukinoshita Yukino in order to repay him for resolving the crisis for Kitahara Sora.
But it was agreed at the beginning that the core of the Sun, Da He, would be used when someone needed it, but he merged privately without discussing it with anyone.
In fact, this is nothing. At the beginning, seeing that all his descendants and relatives were dead and he looked so sad, Hayato Hayama didn't say anything. But the situation is different now. When someone needs this thing to save his life, but you embezzle this key prop, so Hayato Hayama's eyes suddenly became unfriendly when he looked at Ohga Taiyo. Human hearts are so complicated.
Ohga Taiyo's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and seeing that the situation was not good, he forced a smile. He found that except for Hayama Hayato who was looking at him coldly, even Ito Makoto and others had something wrong in their eyes, especially Yukinoshita Yukino who was silent at the moment and didn't even look at him.
He glanced at the expressionless Kitahara Sora with a gloomy look, and his expression was suddenly full of regret, and his tone was sincere: "Well, Hayama-san, I..."
"Don't say anything, Ohga-san. I understand you."
Hayato Hayama put away his cold gaze, shook his head slowly, interrupted Ohga Taiyo's explanation, and continued: "Kitahara-san didn't mean what you thought. It has already happened, and there is no point in saying anything more."
Yes, since things have already happened, shifting all the blame onto Ohga Taiyo will not do the current situation any good. Hayama Hayato, who usually handles everything in an orderly manner, lost his composure after Miura Yumiko became seriously ill, but after Kitahara Do's reminder, he has regained his composure.
Kitahara Sora didn't want to shift the focus to Ohga Taiyang, but was telling everyone that while going back to look for treatment drugs, they needed to find the mutated infected people, and they needed to take the initiative to look for them.
As long as the mutant infected person is found and killed, Miura Yumiko will be able to fully recover as long as she has a breath left. However, the mutant infected person is not so easy to find. You have to act alone to have a chance to encounter the mutant infected person. This is the second method, so Kitahara Sora said that it is somewhat dangerous.
"Mr. Bill, give us one more day."
Hayato Hayama thought for a moment, then suddenly turned to Bill and pleaded, "I'll be back before dark... No, I'll be back before we leave tomorrow morning."
Seeing the other party's sincere plea, Bill and Frances looked at each other, and after a long silence, they sighed softly: "This is not a wise choice, kid."
Hearing Bill's answer, Hayato Hayama's pleading eyes slowly turned into lost ones, and then he slowly looked up at Miura Yumiko who had fallen asleep. Yes, Bill was considering the team. Louis made it very clear at the beginning that if something unexpected happened to someone, they would most likely not choose to drag everyone down because of that one person. It was very realistic.
But if your partner encountered such a disaster, would you choose to abandon him?
While he was in a daze, his eyes gradually became firm. Just as he made up his mind to speak again, Bill's kind voice came again.
"Although it's not wise, it's still a solution." Bill smiled and said, "If you haven't come back by this time tomorrow, we will continue our journey with her. I hope your little lover will get better."
Hayato Hayama was startled, thinking he had heard wrongly. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Bill's smile in disbelief. Seeing his expression, Zoe and the others also laughed. Francis patted Hayato Hayama on the back and grinned, "Boy, it would be a pity if such a beautiful girl died. Go and bring her hope."
"Oh, actually I envy you. If I also have a lover, even if God has given up on her, I will not watch her die. It doesn't matter if she is a bitch. Oh~ Shit, God, please give me a bitch!" This is what Louis said.
Hayato Hayama's dull face was filled with joy. He bowed deeply to Bill and the others, and as he turned to go downstairs, he heard Kitahara Sora's voice again: "Hayama-san, I'll go back with you. The two of us can take care of each other."
"Kitahara-san?" Hayato Hayama looked at Kitahara Sora in confusion, not knowing why he was so enthusiastic. However, from the brief contact, it seemed that he was not a good guy.
"I'm going with you, not just for your sake. I'm going to look for some more food in the city. Our food is not enough to sustain so many people for more than ten days."
After Kitahara Sora's explanation, Ohga Taiyo hurriedly said, "That's right. We originally thought we could drive the school bus, but the snow got thicker. This series of accidents prevented us from thinking about it. So I think Kitahara's suggestion is very reliable, so please let me go with you!"
"This... Kitahara-san, since you insist, I can only express my gratitude."
Hayato Hayama excitedly held Kitahara Sora's hand, patted his arm, and then looked at Ohga Taiyo with a hesitant expression. He was about to speak when he was interrupted by Kitahara Sora again.
"Da He, you should go too. Don't have too many people, and don't have too few. Try to be back before dark tonight."
After Kitahara Sora calmly responded to Hayama Hayato's thanks, he glanced at Ohga Taiyang who looked eager. If it weren't for Hayama's obstruction, he might have been killed by Ohga Taiyang's black gun. Although he had enough reasons, if it were him at that time, he might have made the same proposal as him out of caution. Regardless of whether they could do it or not, Hayama stopped him at that time, and he had to repay the favor.
Kitahara Sora originally wanted Ohga Taiyang to go with him, so he deliberately mentioned the matter of the evolution core metaphorically, so that Hayama Hayato would involuntarily dislike him in his heart. So when the proposal of going back to Shirataka City was mentioned, the acting-loving Ohga Taiyang would definitely speak up and express his desire to go. It is not known whether he really feels guilty, but he will definitely act. Perhaps the key is that he has a bottom line in his heart after the strengthening of the core.
I have been planning to do something to him for a long time, but I just haven't had the right opportunity. It's not that Kitahara Sora wants to kill him. Although he hasn't done anything out of line yet, his performance is an unstable factor in my eyes. Is Makoto a scumbag? He is indeed a scumbag. The male protagonists of other anime series always like new women and never get tired of old ones when they have a harem. But he picked up Dio and didn't recognize her, so he ended up like that.
But Ren Cheng Ge would not do anything extreme. At most, he would roar at the girl helplessly and then cry. He himself did not show any aggressiveness. The girls he had sex with were all willing.
This guy is different. Yukinoshita had already told her last night that he secretly hid a bucket of instant noodles, and gave it to her secretly avoiding everyone's sight in order to win her favor. Isn't this just like Yukinoshita Yukino, who is petty and keeps complaining everywhere.
Because after knowing his character, he deeply understood how dangerous he was. After being deliberately ignored many times, even the dumbest person should know that the other party has no feelings for him, or even hates him. As a result, this guy became even more blatant.
For Yukinoshita Yukino, these trivial matters were indeed tricky. She had no choice but to tell me. It was also an agreement with my proposal yesterday, which was a recognition of myself.
So, when he is helpless and all his friends have died, feeling extremely lonely, he can immediately hide his pain after crying and feeling hurt, get along with everyone with a normal heart, and carefully try to gain Yukinoshita's favor, then there is something wrong with this guy.
If Da He Taiyang is not arranged yet, he will probably start preparing to cause some trouble.
When Kitahara Sora suggested that Ohga Taiyo go along as well, two pairs of eyes were locked on him at the same time. On one side was Ohga Taiyo nodding in confusion and gratitude, and on the other side was Yukinoshita Yukino's uneasi gaze, unable to guess Kitahara Sora's thoughts.
"Boy, I don't know what you are hiding from us, but I don't think you will do anything bad to us."
Just as the three were about to go downstairs to pack up, Bill suddenly looked serious, stared at Beiyuan Kong with complicated eyes, and said in a deep voice: "If you want, you can tell us, maybe we can give you some advice."
Upon hearing this, Kitahara Sora, who was walking down the stairs with Hayama Hayato, paused and turned around. After hesitating for a long time, he walked up to the kind-looking bearded old man and gently hugged him.
When I used to play games, he was my favorite character to choose. He was brave and decisive, loyal and righteous. In the end, he died tragically at the hands of the Tank in order to save his partner's life. Such a tragic character was able to hide his terminal illness from his teammates, filling the team with hope, and finally sacrificed his life for everyone.
Only those who have suffered from serious illnesses will cherish their lives more. They hope to live longer, even just one more day. This mentality is more common among older people. This is why the First Emperor asked Xu Fu to find him the elixir of life. The elderly cherish their bodies more and more and start to dance square dance and maintain their health.
He could see that the little brats who saved them were a bunch of useless people, but he didn't show the methods that a doomsday man should have. He was calm, but not ungrateful. He was decisive, but after making the decision to trust these greenhorns, he told them his dark thoughts truthfully and gave them a warning that this was the end of the world.
So Kitahara Sora gave him a hug, he was someone worthy of his respect.
"Keep your trust to the end, old Bill. I am not the same kind of person as you, but you can trust me completely."
1 Chapter Tank ()
Bill was really confused by Kitahara Sora's sudden hug, but he finally let go of the doubts in his heart. He patted Kitahara Sora's shoulder lightly, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the other party's expression paused, quickly let go of him, walked to the window and looked into the distance.
Following his movements, everyone gathered around him and looked towards the highway in the distance.
I saw a fully enclosed tracked troop carrier speeding towards the town from the direction of White Eagle City. Similar to the angled design of the front of a tank, the armored vehicle with its tracks easily climbed onto the abandoned vehicles blocking the road and then crushed them into discus. With the rising snowflakes and the zombies chasing behind the car, it looked fearless and brave.
Ten seconds later, the armored vehicle stopped at the entrance of the town, the back door popped open, and four fully armed soldiers in winter combat camouflage uniforms jumped out of the vehicle. They held the standard US military M16A2 rifles and fired wildly at the surrounding zombies. As a slight and low sound like sawing wood came from the distance, the zombies fell down in groups like wheat being cut.
After the zombies around were completely cleared, several soldiers surrounded the armored vehicle and stood guard. Then a man with a mustache and a beret, who looked like a non-commissioned officer, got out from the passenger seat. He dropped the cigar in his mouth and looked into the town.
Military modified vehicles, snow goggles, silencers, and grenade launchers hanging on standard rifles!
It's someone from the military!
Everyone on the second floor of the villa opened their eyes wide, and then showed surprise on their faces. Louis shouted excitedly, and before Bill could even say anything to stop him, he pushed Hayato Hayama at the stairs and ran downstairs.
Everyone looked at each other and followed him downstairs. Louis ran downstairs, took out the only remaining bottle of whiskey from his supply backpack, opened the door and ran towards the troop carrier.
With a look of joy on his face, he held up the bottle of wine and shouted for help in the direction of the troop carrier. The soldiers there spotted him from a long distance and pointed their guns at him without hesitation.
Seeing this, Louis's excited expression suddenly collapsed. Under the threat of the gun, he stopped running, cold sweat pouring out of his forehead. Looking directly at the soldier in the distance, Louis raised his hands and slowly approached on foot. The other party also patiently stopped where he was and waited for him.
A few minutes later, Louis walked to a position about 10 meters away from the armored vehicle, slowly squatted down, placed the bottle of wine beside him, carefully put his hands behind his back, and took the initiative to lie down in the cold snow.
Everyone in the room wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Bill. After Beiyuan Kong made a silent gesture, everyone fell silent and watched through the window. When they saw Louis lying in the snow, they finally realized that something was wrong.
"Louis!"
Just as Francis was about to rush out, Beiyuan Kong grabbed him and threw him behind him: "Hide!"
Everyone saw Louis lying on the ground with his head tilted up, seemingly saying something. The four soldiers who got off the car pointed their guns at his head and approached cautiously. After confirming that Louis would not resist, two soldiers squatted down and handcuffed his hands behind his back.
Then a middle-aged man who looked like an officer walked in slowly. He picked up the whiskey next to Louis and weighed it in his hand for a few times. Then he unscrewed the bottle cap and took a big gulp. After helping Louis up, he patted his shoulder and began to talk to him with a smile.
After a while, he winked at the soldiers around him, and with his hands freed, Louis smiled again. He immediately turned around and prepared to shout in the direction of everyone. Everyone in the room had just let go of their worries, but they were almost shocked by the next scene.
Because the mustachioed officer who was talking to Louis with a smile just now suddenly looked gloomy, took out his pistol, pointed it at the back of Louis' head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
When Louis fell straight in the snow, the blood spilled and dyed a large area of snow red. The officer took another sip of whiskey as if he had slaughtered an animal. His eyes followed the footprints in the snow and locked onto the big house where everyone was...
Everyone suddenly lowered their heads and leaned against the windowsill. Miyamoto Rei covered her mouth with both hands in fear. Zoe's eyes immediately filled with tears. Even Yukinoshita Hayama and others were frightened to the point that their pupils widened and they gasped.
"These bastards!" Francis' eyes were red, his whole body was trembling and his face was ferocious. He picked up the gun and wanted to rush forward, but was immediately knocked to the ground by Bill.
"They have already discovered us, but they probably don't know how many of us there are."
Kitahara Sora leaned against the wall with half of his face sticking out of the window. At this time, the troop carrier was accelerating towards the house where everyone was, and the four soldiers outside the car also returned to the car. They did not seem to be afraid of everyone here escaping or counterattacking. Although the officer's eyes just swept over him, the direct light and the strong reflection of the pure white world made him not notice the people peeping in the window.
"why?"
