Onozuka Jin, who had lost hope, could only quietly walk back. The ground was littered with Japanese corpses, as well as some who had escaped death but were seriously injured. The wailing sounds were endless, and the surroundings were filled with the smell of putrid stench and despair.

Along the way, Onozuka also met many comrades who continued to rush to the seaside to die. These people were just like them at the beginning, holding on to the hope of survival but not knowing that they were about to step into hell.

He didn't bother to remind him, since no one would believe him anyway.

Under a big tree, a familiar figure caught Onozuka Hitoshi's attention. He quickly walked over and knelt down to look carefully:
"Captain Hikawa? Is that you?"

When he heard the shouting, the little devil raised his head. Under the messy stubble was a face that was so hungry that only skin and bones were left, but the sharp triangular eyes and garlic nose had not changed much.

Onozuka Jin recognized at a glance that this person was Lieutenant Commander Masao Hikawa who led their team before going to the medical clinic.

"Great, I didn't expect to meet you here. Where is the team now? Where is Yoshino?"

Onozuka Jin asked eagerly. He was very worried about the friend from the same hometown who gave him sweet potatoes. If it hadn't been for him, he might have died of a leg injury.

"Murakami's meat is not delicious, Baga, Yusuke, you idiot, don't spill the water..."

I don’t know if Masao Hinikawa recognized Onozuka, but the former’s eyes were dull and he was mumbling a lot of words that were incomprehensible.

"Nani? Squadron leader, what are you talking about? Please cheer up! Where are the others?" Onozuka Ren shook his shoulders vigorously, trying to wake him up.

"Are you crazy? Don't kill me... Yoshino, yes! Yoshino is sick, he won't resist! I'm here to help you..."

Unexpectedly, Masao Hinikawa's eyes suddenly widened, his expression seemed to be that he had seen some terrible scene, and while pushing Onozuka away, he put his head in his hands and shouted in fear.

"Wuwu...don't kill me...wuwuwu..."

Before Onozuka Jin could react, the guy suddenly fell to the ground and covered his face and cried bitterly, screaming so heart-breakingly.

"Haha...Murakami's meat is not delicious...Yes, Yoshino is sick..."

Before the tears were over, he suddenly grinned and giggled again, and started repeating the words just now.

Onozuka Jin was disappointed. He realized that the squadron leader was mentally disturbed and did not know what the other party had experienced, and those comrades...

It’s really hard to imagine what kind of desperate situation they encountered.

Looking at the crazy and mentally disturbed commander, Onozuka also felt helpless. Even if he wanted to help him, what could he do like a bird?

Now I can only let go of my need to help others and respect the fate of others.

Onozuka Jin didn't stop and continued walking aimlessly into the woods... But the further he walked back, the more tragic scenes he saw.

All those who could move went to the seaside. Those who remained in the deep jungle either ran out of gas and lay quietly in the grass waiting to die, or they sat on the roadside like crazy, laughing crazily and crying bitterly. The despair of hope is crushing.

It was as if they had been forgotten by the higher-ups. They had not received any supplies for several months, and now they were in a state of inhumanity, struggling to survive.

At this time, Onozuka Jin had been hungry for five days. He had eaten grass roots, leaves, and almost everything he could swallow, but his body was getting weaker day by day.

The long-term lack of nutrition made him look like a zombie, and various hallucinations appeared in his vision. Even the broken corpses and carrion on the ground were regarded as delicacies.

Onozuka Jin moved his cheeks, trying hard to imagine the taste of the food he was chewing in his mouth. He was exhausted... At this moment, he could only use this way to welcome the arrival of death.

Severe hunger finally caused Onozuka to faint. After an unknown period of time, he was doused with water and woke up. Suddenly, a piece of meat miraculously appeared in his mouth.

The aroma of meat that hit his nose instantly activated all the cells in his body. Onozuka tried his best to open his eyes, and what he saw was a smiling black face. "Yoshi, I knew you were still alive..."

Grinning with big yellow teeth exposed, the veteran smiled and took out the kettle.

The person in front of me was the veteran Shi Yongcunta who was reminding himself not to rush ahead at the beach.

Unexpectedly, he escaped from death again... As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, Onozuka Jin didn't care about Sanqi 21, holding the dried meat and gobbled it up.

Shi Yongcun Tai took a sip of water and continued: "Eat it with confidence, this is monkey meat, I still have a lot of it."

Monkey meat?
Onozuka Jin felt a little puzzled. In today's day, would there still be monkeys in the forest?

But strangely enough, he was not idle. He ate the piece of dried meat and drank several large sips of water.

"Arigado...Shi Yongjun, thank you so much! Please tell me if there is anything you can do for me."

After finishing the food, Onozuka Jin immediately knelt down and thanked him respectfully. He had already helped him twice, otherwise he would have died here. This kindness is not small.

"Young man, you have helped us before, haha."

Ishiyong Murata smiled nonchalantly. In fact, he was younger than Onozuka Jin, but he had been in the army for longer, and he looked like a veteran.

In addition, he always showed a not very smart smile. If he could wash his face properly, Onozuka would definitely be surprised at how immature this soldier is.

"Come with me, we have company."

...

After regaining some energy, Shi Yong took Onozuka to the foot of a hillside.

The rock wall here is half-recessed to form a cave, and directly in front is a banana forest, which can protect them from wind and rain, and also provides them with a natural shelter.

"Uncle, I'm back."

After coming in, Shi Yong casually put the firearm beside him, sat down next to the fire, and added several pieces of wood to the fire.

The companion Shi Yong was talking about was the deceitful sergeant who was in the team when they went to the beach.

It turns out that the military officer's surname is also Shi Yong, and they are still uncles and nephews.However, the other party's condition is not good at the moment. He is very depressed and seems to be injured.

After seeing Onozuka Jin, he didn't show much expression. He just muttered a few words about how lucky he is, and then he fiddled with the chopping board, cut wild vegetables into pieces, and put them into the blackened steel helmet. .

That night, they didn't rush to the beach with the large army at all. They originally just wanted to fish in troubled waters and escape. Who would have thought that the Chinese people's firepower was so terrifying, it was like a slaughterhouse.

After seeing that there was no hope of breaking out of the encirclement, Shi Yong and the two planned to run away with oil on their feet. As for other companions who went to die, that was beyond their control.

So the two gathered some supplies and hid here. Unfortunately, the sergeant was hit in the back by a stray bullet on the way. Although the location was not fatal, the bullet was still stuck in his flesh and blood, which was also the reason for his depression.

As the wild vegetables and pieces of meat are put into the helmet rice pot and tossed back and forth in the boiling water, the rich and tangy aroma makes people scream.

Onozuka Jin swallowed his saliva, wishing he could rush over and have a feast. Who would have thought that in the current environment, they could still find such delicious food...
