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

Just like that, a strange silence reigned in the student council room.

Although it was early spring and the weather was not hot, they could feel the sweat glands on their scalps opening up little by little.

Yumiko Miura let out a sigh, "hmm," as if she was enduring something. She didn't want to criticize Mr. Hiratsuka.

As the only adult and teacher in the school, Mr. Hiratsuka's contributions are obvious to all.

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed in resignation and moved her chair back a little, "Is that so."

With his mouth slightly open, Isshiki Iroha organized his words, "Well... after all, Hiratsuka-sensei has reached this age."

"Ha, Isshiki, don't say that in front of Hiratsuka-sensei." Yukinoshita Yukino covered her forehead, looking helpless.

"Senpai Yukinoshita, of course I know." Isshiki Iroha said that she was not that stupid, "But the relationship between teacher and student is a bit romantic."

"It's not like that in modern times." Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head. In the past, there were examples of noble female students getting engaged to young and promising male teachers.

"If it's in the comics..." Clapping her hands, Yuigahama Yui remembered a similar plot in a girls' comic she had read before.

So the topic was quietly brought away from its original track, and even talked with Iroha about the old movie "The Garden of Words", until Yuigahama Yui suddenly remembered that she had to go down quickly, and Xiao Xuan should have found Mr. Hiratsuka.

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

"I feel a little guilty about pushing all the work to Yukinoshita." Uesugi Genshin shifted the gears and the car started moving.

"Well, then why don't we just compensate Xiaoxue with something later?" Yuigahama Yui showed a smiling expression.

"......" But what does Yukinoshita like? Panda? Or cats?

He probably only remembered these two.

Chapter 191: Home

The two cars slowly drove out of Sobu High School. He already knew the destination and he had also done his homework on the map. Although it was not close, it would still take a winding route to get there.

This is just a deduction based on the situation when Mr. Hiratsuka was out half a month ago. Whether it can arrive smoothly in the future depends on the actual situation.

However, except for the first few days when everyone was running around, now basically everyone knows to hide, so the road conditions should not change much.

Driving in front was his own Wrangler, which, with a bumper, could still lead the way when necessary, if... it was really necessary.

Behind them was Hiratsuka-sensei's car, with Hachiman sitting in the passenger seat.

I waved to the students standing guard at the intersection to move the obstacle away, and the car drove completely out of the safe zone.

When the sun in the sky was covered by dark clouds, the interior of the car suddenly became dark.

In the shadows, Genshin Uesugi held the steering wheel with his gloved hands, looking at the brightly lit road outside while explaining to Yui beside him how to deal with zombies.

"...Anyway, remember, if there are zombies after you stop, don't open the door. I will go out and deal with them. You stay in the car honestly, keep your body as low as possible, reduce your presence, and don't provoke the zombies passing by."

He was mainly worried about the car. Zombies have no sense of pain. If they find someone inside, they will hit the vehicle with all their strength. The Wrangler is just a civilian vehicle. It is not bulletproof or sturdy. If the glass is broken or the door is dented, he will be very heartbroken.

"I understand." Yuigahama Yui agreed readily. Although she had killed a zombie with her own hands, she was very self-aware. She would not be able to cope with two or more zombies. The most important thing was not to cause trouble.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with this. She turned her eyes optimistically and glanced at the side profile of Uesugi Genshin who was driving seriously. His serious look was particularly tempting, "......, so cool~"

There is a delicate look in her eyebrows and eyes, her voice and smile reveal her gentleness, and her body is as perfect as marble.

"Ok?"

"No, nothing." She waved her hands quickly.

"Hmm." Uesugi Genshin moved his gaze back to the front, but he kept saying, "Pretty as a peach in spring, pure as a chrysanthemum in autumn."

"what?"

"Praise you."

"Huh?" Yuigahama Yui had never studied either Higashigeku or Waka seriously, so she didn't remember this ancient style of sentence at all.

So she frantically begged, "Say it again."

"......" Restraining the urge to roll his eyes upward, Uesugi Genshin smiled, "No."

"Hey~" Although he knew that he couldn't disturb him while driving, or else Yuigahama Yui would reach out and grab his clothes, he could still say, "Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly just now, ah!!!"

The car body swung violently because there were zombies blocking the road ahead. Uesugi Genshin adjusted the direction of the car and continued to drive forward.

Looking at the rearview mirror, Hiratsuka-sensei's car also passed through the gaps between the zombies without being blocked.

He breathed a sigh of relief, "Isn't it good that you know I'm praising you for being cute? Even if I say it again, you still won't remember it."

"Ah~" Yuigahama Yui protested softly, pouting her lips, but she was quite happy in her heart.

The car became quiet again. The further inland they went, the more people there were, which meant there were more zombies.

Another problem is the Japanese-style city roads. It is already a good thing to have a few two-way four-lane roads occasionally. Most of them are two-way two-lane roads, or even no lanes but one car can barely pass through. There are basically no green belts on both sides of the road.

There are also very few non-motorized vehicle lanes, which is not very friendly to bicycles.

"Hmm..." Driving on this kind of road is very energy-consuming, and one has to be nervously watching whether zombies will suddenly jump out from the sides.

The principle of taking the main road instead of the small road also makes it seem like a journey of more than ten kilometers even though the straight-line distance is only a few kilometers.

Finally, the Wrangler stopped in front of an apartment building. Uesugi Genshin grabbed the knife beside him, turned around, opened the door and got out of the car.

Yuigahama Yui unbuckled her seat belt, squatted down, and squeezed her body into the space in front of the seat, pressing her soft breasts against her knees, well hidden.

He closed the car door with his back hand, drew his sword and killed two zombies, then moved on.

The car of Hiratsuka Sensei behind also braked not far away. Hachiman opened the door before the car stopped completely, and closed it when the car was about to stop.

Holding a baseball bat, he killed the three zombies that rushed towards him, and then began to clean up the zombies following their car.

After the car stopped, Hiratsuka-sensei also got out, intending to help Hachiman.

Uesugi Genshin was still faster. He held the knife in his backhand and a piece of clothing stripped from a zombie in his left hand, and walked towards Hachiman and Hiratsuka Sensei who had just finished the fight.

"Teacher Hiratsuka, please stay down there for a while." Wiping the blood off the blade of the sword, Uesugi Genshin said to Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"Okay." Hiratsuka Shizuka agreed straightforwardly.

"Yui, follow me." He opened the trunk and took out another knife. Uesugi Genshin handed it to Yuigahama Yui who got out of the car for self-defense and said.

"Ok!"

"And..." He looked at Hachiman.

"I'm going too." Hachiman raised his hand consciously and said.

"Yes."

She turned her head and glanced at the apartment building that was more than ten stories high. This one was much bigger than Mai's.

But judging from the spacing between the windows, the apartment inside should be smaller and not that big.

Every window was closed tightly, and some even had curtains drawn, so nothing could be seen.

He threw the blood-stained clothes on the ground, turned the blade, and walked towards the back of the building with the knife in hand.

The entrance to the apartment building is on the inside, not the side facing the road.

Hachiman followed behind him, while Yuigahama Yui was at the back.

Passing between the two buildings, I looked left and right at the zombies scattered on the path on both sides.

Uesugi Genshin made a gesture to the back, and Hachiman understood. The two of them walked to the sides, intending to clean up the zombies outside.

Pulling out the knife awkwardly, Yuigahama Yui stood where she was, looking around vigilantly, worried that another one might jump out from somewhere.

Fortunately, this did not happen. All the zombies within sight were quickly killed by Uesugi Genshin and his companions.

"It's here." Yuigahama Yui said, pointing to the entrance of the apartment building.

"Well, let's go ahead." Uesugi Genshin nodded and continued to follow the previous formation.

Both of these apartment buildings are very interesting. The three units on each side of the building are different from the six units in the middle. Naturally, the prices must be different as well, which can give tenants another choice and avoid monotony.

"My home is on the tenth floor." said Yuigahama Yui.

Okay, just climb the stairs honestly.

No one knows what is outside the elevator, and in the small space, it becomes difficult to swing a knife.

The stairwell was very quiet and there was no danger because they had a clear purpose and did not care whether there were zombies in the corridors outside the unopened doors on each floor.

At least the door is closed, so there is no need to worry about being cut off from retreat.

The three of them walked so lightly that even their breathing could be faintly heard in the silent stairwell. Yes, it was the tenth floor.

When he reached the tenth floor, his breathing was still calm. Uesugi Genshin did not open the door directly, but glanced at Hachiman who was breathing slightly.

Exhaling silently, Hachiman gave a "OK" gesture in return and continued to move upwards, going up to see if there were any zombies on the two floors above, so as to avoid being caught off guard by a sudden appearance.

During this time, Uesugi Genshin and Yuigahama Yui smiled at each other. Yuigahama Yui was holding the house key in her pocket tightly because she was about to go home, with mixed emotions of joy, worry, hesitation, etc., while Uesugi Genshin's smile was comforting.

Soon, Hachiman also came down from above, with a strange expression on his face. He walked in front of Uesugi Genshin, covered his mouth and whispered, "The road above has been blocked with a chair."

"......" Nodding, Uesugi Genshin indicated that he understood.

Maybe there is something blocking it from above, or maybe there is someone above preventing people from below from coming up, so it is blocked.

But their target is the tenth floor, so let’s take a look at that floor first.

He grabbed Yui's hand and pulled her to the stairs, pointing his finger downwards and asking her to walk further down so that she could escape if there was any danger.

He and Hachiman stood in front of the door, ready for battle, and he reached out and grasped the door handle.

Then turn.

The door was not opened.

"..."

"..."

The door is blocked behind!

Chapter 192: Such a Young Mother

The two looked at each other, and Uesugi Genshin looked at the latch in the crack of the door and was sure that it was blocked, not locked.

Moreover, with this kind of door, it is difficult to tell whether you should lock the people outside from the inside, or lock the people inside from the outside.

He tried to push the door open again with a little more strength, but it didn't move at all. The things inside seemed very heavy.

"What should we do?" Hachiman asked in a low voice.

On the other side, Yuigahama Yui felt a sinking feeling in her heart and opened her mouth slightly. She didn't expect that this would happen when she was almost home.

"Let's go to the ninth floor." After thinking for a moment, Uesugi Genshin suggested.

"Yeah." Hachiman nodded in agreement.

The three of them walked down the stairwell, and this time the door opened smoothly.

There is a corridor that stretches to the end, and the doors of the 12 households are all on the right side. This is the layout of an apartment building. There is no such thing as "units" in Japan.

There is also a traditional plaque with names written on it in front of the door so that the surnames of each household can be known.

When they reached the elevator, Hachiman turned and looked at Uesugi Genshin, "Do you want to get in?"

If Hyun Shin wants to go, he will go.

"There is such an option." Squinting his eyes, Uesugi Genshin looked at the elevator button, then glanced at where the elevator stopped, which was on the second floor.

Logically speaking, since it is blocked from the inside, there should be people inside, so it is safe and there are no zombies.

And since it's blocked, it doesn't matter which way you go.

With the wrist flower gesture and holding the blade in his reverse hand, he pressed the elevator button, and instantly there was a slight sound of the elevator running.

"Yui, go stand over there first." Uesugi Genshin pointed at the stairwell and said to Tong Yui.

"Okay." Yuigahama Yui ran over in small steps.

Then the two of them held their weapons and waited quietly for the elevator to arrive.

Third floor, fourth floor..., the elevator was rising at a moderate speed.

"Ding"
