”Where are we now anyway?” Kyosei asked.
”We are in Shinsaibashi area, we just passed Midosoji Museum earlier. We strayed too far from our original destination,” Yuko said as she checked outside the window.
”Tch, what's with the undead right now? They seemed to be forming in groups?” Kyosei seems pissed.
They should have been around the Bang Gunstore right now if not due to the horde. Many of the streets are totally full of undead horde and the mini van that Kyosei is driving right now cannot handle the amount of undead horde if he try to collied against them. Fighting seems to be troublesome and using firearms are waste of precious bullets. Their only choice is to evade and escape.
Its been a while since Kyosei strayed too far from his destination and the car seems getting low in gas. He looked at the gas meter and it is almost hitting the red mark.
”Is there any nearby gas station here? We need to gain gas,” Kyosei asked.
”I'm not too familiar with the area though, but I guess Risha do, she lives around here before the outbreak,” Risa said.
”Is that so?” Kyosei seems to be not caring whoever gives him info.
Risha looks up to Kyosei after she heard her name and she stopped cuddling Laika.
”Is there any problem?” Risha asked.
”We are running low in gas, I need to refuel this vehicle if we need to keep on running around the dead. We can't siphon the gas in broken cars as they take time. We are in a hurry,” Kyosei said while looking at the Risha who seems to be similar to those pretty African girls due to their skin color which is a bit dark brown.
”Hmm, there seems to be one nearby but I don't really know if it is still good to go,” Risha said.
”Where is it?” Kyosei asked.
”From what I remember, it is further after you pass by Midosoji Museum,” Risha answered.
Kyosei nodded. He pressed the accelerator and boost through the area.

Day 2: 01: 26 P.M
Osaka Streets: Shinsaibashi Area: Gas Station
Time before the Night Rage: 5 hours and 34 minutes left
*********************************************************************************
The destination of Kyosei and the rest is the former gas station. Its former due to the occupancy of the thugs from the area. They are being led by Big Man Joe. He is now trying to survive, build his base and live through hell. This world seems to be not his ideal place but he needs to adapt so he needs to keep himself alive. He was busy tinkering a car when one of his lackeys arrive whom he remember to be one of the boys he assigned to be on watch duty.
”Is there something going on?” Big Man Joe asked.
”We saw a mini van roaring through the streets. The others are certain that they are going to come here,” The lackey said.
”Can you determine who is inside the car?” Big Man Joe asked with a frown.
”No, boss, the mini van's windshield is tinted. We cannot determine the people inside,” The lackey answered.
”I see, prepare your weapons. Do not show hostility unless necessary. We can't make too many enemies here as this world has turned into weak dies and only the strong survive. We need to be making connections instead,” Big Man Joe said.
”Copy boss, should we bring out our weapons?” The lackey raises his M14.
”Bring it, but don't use it unless needed to. I will come as well as I seemed to be interested to them,” Big Man Joe said.
”Yes sir!”
...
Kyosei can see the gas atation from afar but he is quite sure that the place seems to be occupied.
”We got company,” Kyosei said to the others.
As the mini van reached the vicinity, there are a few guys holding guns stopped them from getting near.
