Zombie Master

"OK, do you want to go?"

After confirming that the sun had completely set, Takumi straddled his bicycle with a backpack packed with some food.

The destination is my parents' house in Tokyo.It is about 16 kilometers away from the commuter town in the metropolitan area where Takumi lives.It would be easier if I could use a car, but I have to give up because it is expected that most of the roads will be blocked by abandoned cars.

Takumi thought that the most reliable route was to use the national highway.There are some two-lane roads on the way, and I was a little worried if I could ride a bicycle in such a narrow space, but I can't tell until I actually go and check it.

Takumi began to feel impatient when he was finally able to confirm the safety of his family.On the fifth day from Zombie Apocalypse, you need to be prepared.

Given that the date and time when zombies are likely to begin to occur is noon on weekdays, it is likely that the mother was at her parents' home, her father was at work, and her two sisters were at the same girls' school in a junior and senior high school.From Takumi's condominium, the junior and senior high school, which will have two younger sisters, is slightly closer than the parents'home, but considering the possibility of returning to the parents' home by some means, I decided to aim for the parents' home first. That's right.My sister has a decent personality, and my dad thinks he's kind of reliable.That's why my mother is the biggest concern for Takumi.

First, go to your parents' house and check the safety of your mother.If you are lucky, you may know the current situation of the other three.Takumi's idea is to use his parents' home as one of his bases and use it as a foothold for his vision of the future.

"... After all, there are many cars."

Bicycle to sew between cars left on national roads.If the car is not an obstacle, you should be able to reach your parents' house in a little over an hour, but you have to drive carefully and be prepared to take more than twice as long.Only a few cars are burning and dangerous to approach, and zombies are wandering around, which inevitably slows them down.

"Even so, I feel like they're avoiding me ..."

I knew that zombies wouldn't attack me, but in my experience, some zombies were aggressively approaching.Thanks to that, it was easy to catch female zombies, but even if they came to the zombies while traveling by bicycle, it would only get in the way.I was wondering how to run while seeing the zombies here and there, but the zombies did not block the way Takumi went.

The reason is unknown, but I will not think deeply because it is currently advantageous for me.Besides, I couldn't afford to think about anything else.Cars that lost their drivers were left here and there, and they couldn't escape by car, and the only people left behind on national roads, where there was no escape route, were zombies or corpses. ..Corpses are literally scattered around, sprinkling a strong scent around them.

Takumi didn't know what the difference was between a human being who became a zombie and a human who remained a corpse.If you are bitten by a zombie, you promise to become a zombie.If so, remaining corpse is considered dead before being bitten by a zombie.Under these circumstances, was he swallowed by despair and chose to commit suicide rather than becoming a zombie?

Every time it hits my mind, I feel unpleasant.

Also, the appearance of zombies is often relatively beautiful.When you think of a zombie, you might think of a zombie whose whole body is rotten, has a rotten odor, and has internal organs protruding from a large wound.However, most of the zombies that Takumi has seen have scars on his shoulders and arms that are thought to have been bitten by the zombies, and there are no other noticeable scars.I've never bent my nose to the odor when interacting with a female zombie.Of course, some zombies were severely injured, and some zombies had abnormal mutations in parts of their bodies.However, it seems that there are many zombies who look almost the same as humans.That's why I had the idea of ​​having sex with zombies.

The corpse, on the other hand, was in a terrible state.No one is buried, just a number of corpses left unattended.I have witnessed zombies and crows eating corpses several times.At the end of the century, Takumi was about to vomit many times.

And every time, I was strongly concerned about the safety of my family, and when I was convinced that the zombies would not attack me, I regretted that I should have gone to my parents' house immediately.

"Seriously ..."

Takumi stopped his bicycle while various thoughts boiled in his heart.

In front of me, several cars, including a large truck, were crashing and burning violently.I don't know when it's burning, but there's no way a fire engine will come and I have to wait for the fire to extinguish naturally.It is narrow with two lanes on both sides, and the upper part is a grade separation, so you have to turn back a little and get out of the national highway.

"Hmm ... I have to check the road on the map."

When I try to take out the map from my backpack, I notice that I forgot to put in the map and slap my tongue.You can use the app on your smartphone to get a map, but the map used to check the road is easier to use with a paper atlas.It's a different story if it's a car navigation system.

When I took out my smartphone and looked at the LCD screen while poisoning my missing part, Takumi's heart bounced.

"... Incoming mail !?"

Since five days ago, it has become difficult to communicate with smartphones.I checked frequently for the first two days, but there was no sign of communication at all.Now I only check when I give up and notice.

This is because the line is less crowded than before due to the fact that many people have run out of power on their smartphones and that the owners of smartphones are no longer able to use their smartphones, but Takumi Was unaware.

When I checked the email in a hurry, the sender was my older sister, Amber.The date it was sent is an hour ago.

"I don't know if I can get through, but please help me. I found it in the school, and it's hidden and lapis lazuli."

There was a sentence that seemed to have been struck in a hurry.

Ruri is the name of my younger sister.Amber is Koichi and Ruri is Chuuni, and they attend the same junior and senior high school.Famous as a girls' school, parents were pleased that they both passed there.Of course, my brother Takumi is also proud.

From that email, I was relieved for a moment that both of them were still alive, but I was wondering and anxious about what it means to be a lapis lazuli and whether it was found by a zombie. Come on.

However, the next moment, Takumi tightened his expression, opened the map with the app, hurriedly searched for the location of the school, and turned the bicycle.

When Takumi decided to ride his bicycle, Amber had no choice but to hold his breath and stay still.

She will soon be sixteen years old, and her slightly fishing eyes, dignified expression, and long hair with ponytails are impressive.At first glance, she is a cool beauty who seems to be cold, but she is widely popular because of her strong sense of responsibility and caring personality.Especially from the lower class students, there is tremendous support that can be said to be faith, and he is the deputy director of the tea ceremony club.If all goes well, I was planning to become the director next year.

But now she didn't seem to have a future.

It was just lunch break when the Zombie Apocalypse attacked.She belongs to the tea ceremony club, and during lunch break it was her daily routine to eat lunch in the tea room outdoors.Famous as a girls' school, the tea ceremony is also incorporated into general classes.Therefore, the tea room is made larger than the general public.There is also a simple kitchen and a toilet with a washlet, and it was a privilege of the tea ceremony club to use this freely during lunch break.

On that day, amber, lapis lazuli, and three other members were eating lunch together.Although it is a comfortable space to eat lunch, the members who do not want to waste their lunch break do not bother to eat lunch in the tea room because it is quite far from the main school building.Therefore, the members were almost fixed every day.

The five tried to return to the main school building before the lunch break, but there was a loud scream and a glass breaking sound from the main school building, and some behavior with the woman in the courtyard was clearly strange. Then, I hurriedly returned to the tea room.Then, by checking the situation on my smartphone, I couldn't get out.

Regarding smartphones, the telephone function is not connected at all due to the congestion of voice communication, and the exchange of emails is also crowded, so it can not be done well.Since I could barely use the Internet function, I was diligently emailing my family while collecting information while saving electricity in an environment where charging was not possible.

As the oldest deputy director, Amber closes the shutters first, manages food centered on sweets in the tea room, and plays a siege in the tea room, being careful not to make noise as much as possible. It was.It's a desperate situation where I have no idea how long I should stay in the siege, and I can hardly tell what's going on outside, but I believe that if I endure it, help will come someday.

Fortunately, the outdoor tea room was in a strange place that was rarely used except for events, so the girl student who became a zombie did not wander nearby.Therefore, it was possible to siege without being attacked by zombies.

But on the fifth day, things finally moved in the worst direction.

A zombie who happened to pass by happened to hear the sound of running water in the bathroom.The zombies broke the shutters and attacked the ambers, and two junior students and Ruri were bitten by the zombies.One of the junior students became a zombie, and the other spit a large amount of blood from his mouth and died.And as for Ruri, he didn't become a zombie, he didn't die, he got a high fever and fainted on the spot.

In such a nightmare, Amber and the remaining junior student smashed the zombie's head with a wooden bat that the OG had put in half a joke as a countermeasure against molestation.It was just like a fireplace.

Fortunately, there didn't seem to be any other zombies around.However, there is no room to fix the destroyed shutters.Anyway, I need to manage to survive the night.

So I decided to hide the amber under the floor.It's an unreliable hiding place, but I can't replace my stomach on my back.

Amber, lapis lazuli, and another girl are hiding under the floor of a tea room with a spider web.

The last one is Yu Kisaragi, a junior high school student with a cute short pigtail.A childish girlfriend, she is an avid follower of amber and is always obsessed with amber.He is also Ruri's best friend and is like another sister to Amber.He always smiles brightly and brightens the surroundings, but now he is shrinking as if he is holding his body while trembling with a fearful expression.

And Ruri has a high fever and is breathing painfully.Amber hugged Ruri, feeling sick that she had to take her to an unsanitary place under the floor.

Did the email I sent to my brother reach my brother this time?

Will my brother come if it arrives?No, is my brother still alive in the first place?

And what will happen to us from now on?

There was a noise from above, as if to chase down my messy heart with various thoughts.There is a faint expectation that he may be his brother for a moment, but a faint moaning is heard and the expression of despair is instant.

A new zombie has arrived.

All right, I can't find it.

Amber hugged Ruri and was encouraged by the feel.

Ruri and Yu are absolutely protected.

Ruri, who had stopped breathing painfully, slowly turned to Amber with such a determination.

His eyes glowed red in the dark.
