A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

He gave the order again, "You go to the second floor to check, I'll go to the backyard to take a look."

Hayasaka and Mai, who had been attending him directly, of course followed him.

"Got it. Be careful." After giving his usual instructions, Hayato Hayama led his men towards the stairs to the second floor.

Uesugi Genshin opened the glass door and called out, "Let's go."

"It's very quiet." The only sound that could be heard was the chirping of birds, and Mai Sakurajima was surveying the surrounding environment.

Seeing a patch of unusually bright flowers, she deviated slightly from her route. The outer petals were light pink, the inner petals were pink, and there were many petals, which were arranged in circles like lotus flowers. No, they were even denser than lotus flowers, and looked more delicate.

"It seems to be called Misaki." Hayasaka Ai recognized the flower. "It was bred in 07 by a rose breeder, Mr. Kunieda."

"Misaki? It's indeed a very descriptive name." Taking off her gloves, Mai Sakurajima fiddled with the transparent petals. The pattern was quite fashionable and elegant.

"Being planted here means that it has good disease resistance and adaptability." Uesugi Genshin looked at the beauty playing with the flowers and tilted his head and said, "It can be transplanted back."

"You really want everything." Hayasaka Ai stood behind the two of them and watched from a distance.

"Yes, I am so greedy." He admitted it very directly, which he would not have dared to think of before. Uesugi Genshin thought that he had the humility inherited from the East.

After the end of the world, he could vaguely sense that he had become a little lax, and sometimes he would be so negligent that he would prefer to solve problems directly with his strength, going straight ahead, rather than backing off. According to the practices of his old family, there is nothing wrong with this idiom, which can be extended to the Battle of Chengpu.

"The flowers will soon wither." Sakurajima Mai moved her fingers away, and her words probably contained a negative tone.

"Then wait until it blooms next time. You can always wait. At that time, you will feel that your current actions are worth it." Uesugi Genshin's words indicated that he had already confirmed that he would transplant it into a pot and take it back.

Perhaps she was dissatisfied with Uesugi Genshin's tough approach, Sakurajima Mai turned her back and walked in front with a sword in hand.

After walking around the backyard, there was no trace of zombies.

The next step was to check out this large circular greenhouse. When I opened the door, I could feel a warm air that was completely different from the outside.

It can be said that there is a sea of ​​flowers inside, which is even more stunning than the outside, but there is a group of people who spoil the view.

The people who were trapped in the greenhouse and failed to escape all looked towards the door.

Then it rushed towards the door like a wave, and this place was the hardest hit area.

Hayasaka Ai stood side by side with Mai early in the morning, and the two of them stepped back to the door, forming an arc with Uesugi Genshin.

The first zombie ran out, wearing shit-yellow clothes, or rather, there was a large piece of mud on his clothes, the color was almost the same.

With a blow on the head, Hayasaka Ai hit the zombie that was running towards her, and three or four zombies followed closely behind her and rushed out of the door at the same time.

There were mixed roars in my ears and an indescribable strange smell surrounded my nose.

Should I wear another mask? she wondered as she hit the next zombie.

She wore a raincoat to prevent blood from splashing on her body.

This also shows that she is quite clean.

Everyone was wearing sportswear or something that wouldn't get dirty. Some people would tie books around their arms, supposedly to make it easier to stuff their arms into the zombies' mouths in case they got too close.

Ha~~~

Leaving the corpses all over the ground, they walked into the greenhouse and made a rough circle around it. The automatic sprinkler was still working, so the place would not be ruined for a while.

Otherwise, it would be a pity to let such a beautiful place disappear. The Flower Art Museum still has its merits.

Apart from a patch of fallen flowers, stained with dried black and red blood, which somewhat ruined the atmosphere.

Uesugi Genshin and Hayama and their group met up at the back garden. After half an afternoon, the areas on both sides of the road were cleared, and they finally reached the beach facing Tokyo Bay.

"I can finally see the sea again." Tobe Sho put his hand on his forehead and looked out into the sea.

There was nothing on the white sand beach except one or two vague "human figures" in the distance.

The hem of his clothes fluttered in the wind. Uesugi Genshin raised his hands in front of his eyes to block the sun. The golden sunlight leaked through his fingers and the sound of the waves echoed in his ears.

I used to come here often. For students of Sobu High School, Inage Beach is a daily routine.

Every evening when the sun sinks into the sea, I find this scene so beautiful and think to myself that I have had a great day.

What now?

Still quite happy.

he thought.

Chapter 152: It's really rare

"Yoho~~~" The stupid Tobe Sho threw the baseball bat on the beach, took off his shoes, rushed into the sea, and stepped on the water.

His actions infected some members of the team, and they followed his example, feeling the coolness and flushing of the sea water together.

Although it was Uesugi Genshin who said to take a short break.

He sat in a small wooden pavilion by the beach, watching the group of idiots playing, and casually glanced at the zombies in the distance to see if they would come over here.

Although it was so far away that it could be measured with the width of a finger, and the sound of the waves obscured the people's shouts, what if its eyesight and hearing were good?

"If you want to go out and play, that's okay." There were a few people nearby who hadn't gone yet, so Uesugi Genshin said this to the two girls.

"Forget it." Hayasaka Ai looked uninterested, and even looked at the boys playing in the water with a bit of contempt.

Well..., it was indeed noisy. If they were all girls, Uesugi Genshin wouldn't say much.

Boys are like monkeys.

Sakurajima Mai also shook her head. She didn't really want to go there alone. A mature mind has many concerns and will not be as reckless as a child.

As I stepped into the sea, the people over there shouted, "Wow, it's so cool."

"Hey, Tobe! Don't splash water on me." Ooka saw Tobe Sho splashing water like a god and hurriedly warned him.

"What?" The gangster spoke in such a tone, but Tobe Sho didn't take it seriously at all and walked over with a smile.

"Hey!" The water flooded up, and people's movements made the sea water surge forward, and this front was the direction of Ooka.

"It's okay, it's okay." He said this without stopping his movements. Maybe he thought it was okay that his trouser legs were wet.

I don’t know what went wrong, but when the sea water splashed on my face, a water fight began.

"......, what an idiot." Uesugi Genshin put his arms on the wooden railing and looked at the crowd in the distance.

"Isn't it good?" Hayato Hayama laughed and waved his hand to reject the invitation from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development's invitation to join.

"Let's go back after that." said Uesugi Genshin.

"Is it over like this?" asked Hayato Hayama.

"Ah, after all, we have been fighting for more than an hour. Those guys' clothes are wet." Uesugi Genshin pointed in the direction of Tokyo, "But if we go back, we won't go back the same way. Let's go over there and take a detour."

After investigating the situation over there, this afternoon's mission is concluded.

-----------------

"Wow, it stinks." The boy fanned his nose, but no matter how hard he fanned, the stench still lingered.

"Shut up." The partner on the other side sighed, "Won't you care more if you say it?"

"That's the case though." He curled his lips behind the mask where no one could see.

The two of them unloaded the hanged body together. Having handled much bloodier bodies in the past, was it too easy to handle a mummy like this? I always felt a sense of inexplicable sadness when I said this.

"And the flies are a bit annoying." Buzzing flies were hovering around the corpse.

"It's spring after all." He shook his head to drive away the approaching insects. As expected, being nailed would make him feel physically nauseous.

The lowest temperature in April is still a bit cold, but in some unknown corners of the house, there are always some annoying insects jumping out, completely unaffected by the cold air outside.

It would be even worse if the temperature rose. Thinking about what he would encounter when dealing with corpses in the summer, the boy sighed heavily.

Anyway, this is work.

"Hurry up." Chengshan walked out from the back of the room and urged.

Just in case, he took a quick check inside. The captain's room was really exquisite. Although small, it had everything.

There is a bedroom, toilet, closet, etc. There is a TV and a refrigerator in the living room, and a laptop in the office area in the middle corner.

There was no food in the refrigerator, only mineral water and tea. The tea showed signs of having been drunk, and a lot of residues could be found in the trash can, but there was no food at all.

No wonder people commit suicide...

"Got it." The man responded, and they put the body on a simple stretcher. It is very convenient to use a stretcher when there are stairs. This is something they have learned from experience.

The two men lifted the stretcher together and walked out. Chengshan followed behind them, stepping over the bloodstains at the door. The body of the zombie who had fallen at the door had already been carried away.

He walked onto the deck, put the stretcher down, and symbolically brushed the dust off his gloves.

"Thank you for your hard work." Hikigaya Hachiman walked over and confirmed if it was this person.

It was not placed with the bodies piled on the cart, but was placed aside on its own.

"minister."

"what?"

"What will happen to this body?"

"Ah, well." Hikigaya Hachiman paused and said, "He will probably be buried somewhere, and a monument will be erected."

He took out a piece of paper from his trouser pocket and said, "Noda Toshitoshi is from Osaka. There are three people in my family. We live in... Anyway, write all this down here."

"Eh..." the man sighed, "I wish my death could be so grand."

"How can this be considered a grand ceremony?" Hikigaya Hachiman clicked his tongue. "Don't worry, I will at least carve your name on it, Ishida-san."

"that's it?"

"Don't say such unlucky things. Get to work, idiot!"

"Yes~"

-----------------

The report was still written by Hayasaka Ai, including the revisions to the action plan following this investigation.

"Why should I..." With a bitter face and gritted teeth, Hayasaka Ai was mainly angry at the person who pushed all the work to her but just stood there leisurely watching her.

"You're an idle person, so you have nothing to do, right?" From another perspective, Uesugi Genshin found an excuse for her overtime work.

It's not like he wants to continue practicing with Hachiman and Mai after everyone's morning class is over, and it's not good to entrust the work of the Student Union to Yukinoshita every time, although he values ​​his position as the head of the executive department more.

Even at night I have to practice, exercise, calligraphy and painting, meditation... These were all lost a long time ago and now I have to pick them up again.

Compared to most people, he was extremely busy. He took a sip of the coffee brewed by Hayasaka, and the cool breeze from the window blew on his warm body, and a feeling of tiredness instantly came over him.

Coffee should be consumed before you feel sleepy, so that caffeine can compete with adenosine, a fatigue factor with similar chemical composition, to bind to the receptor first. Otherwise, after adenosine binds to the receptor and sends a signal to the brain that "I'm so tired", caffeine will have no room to intervene.

"No need to say it." She pouted with a glaring expression.

I didn't expect that she would react to his words in a stressful way, showing a very rare expression.

He always felt that the maid had become much more lazy since she stopped being a maid. Was it just his illusion?

"..." Uesugi Genshin shrugged, raised the cup, drank the last bit of coffee, and his exhaled breath echoed in the empty cup.

"I'll lie down for a while, you go for it." He picked up the eye mask on the table, covered his eyes with it, and lay down on the sofa.

There are still blue skies and white clouds outside. We came back quite early this time and it will take a long time until evening, so an eye mask is necessary.

"Yes, yes~" Hayasaka Ai replied indifferently. Once she starts working, she will concentrate on it. She is that type of person.

"Please." After saying the last sentence, his eyes fell into darkness.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but even he felt like he was about to fall asleep when his body was pushed.

"Ok?"

"Awake?"

"Ah..." Uesugi Genshin lifted the blindfold with his thumb and looked at the person who pushed him with his left eye.

“It’s rare.”

It is rare indeed.

"What? It's a rare opportunity for me to come see you." Yumiko Miura shook her loose blond hair vigorously and folded her arms with full momentum.
