Volume 2 Chapter 27 (1/2)
Nothing in particular had happened during the rest of December, and then, a certain day came
Yusuke was below ground, unloading cardboard boxes at the loading areaThe boxes contained the smoked meat Mizuki and her brothers had processedThethe vacuum packer they he had found on the first floorThe plastic bags containing the
The meet consisted of the pork and beef they had kept in the freezer, but they had kept raw e to cook on the stove on the 3rd floorBecause they had a working stove to cookit a lot recently
Mizuki had been trying a bunch of dishes froht her, and as such, there was always a wide variety of food on the table
“She’s pretty useful huh?”
Yusuke mutters
“Her body is also lewdI wonder if she is getting used to it?”
Since that ti at it countless times, and not once had she acted like she didn’t want itShe still blushed fro hard, she protests, and instead pushes harder into himYusuke was satisfied with the now obedient Mizuki
Yusuke raises the loading platforas, tools, and equipment they had prepared, he had already taken to the mountainAll that was left to take was the food and water
The loading platfor on top of itThe road curves and continues underground, but because he had to keep the shutters closed, it was di, as well as ss
Near the loading zone was the elevator for transporting goods directly to the 1st and 2nd floorsBecause he could also go directly to the 3rd floor, he never really entered thethem a quick look-over(TL: I’ to say with this last sentence)
Walking by, he hears footsteps co from inside and stops
Mizuki was on the 3rd floor, so there shouldn’t be anyone in there
Withdrawing his handgun from the holster on his waist, he approaches the door without a sound
Turning his head, he presses his ear against the door
He hears dull footsteps backing away from the door
Flinging the door open, he sees the back of the ed women
The one with the injured right arm
A zombie
(TL: He has each of these sentences as separate paragraphs)
“So that’s what it was…”(TL: “ndayo”Short for “Nandayo”)
Holstering his weapon, he walks inside
Nearby was a staircase leading to the 1st floorIt appeared that she climbed down from there
As the zouides it up the stairsArriving at the top of the stairs, he forces her out the fire door, closing it behind her so that no other zoet in
Zos, but there was always the possibility one could inadvertently break so around the equipment
Suddenly, a horrible smell entered his nose
“……it stinks…”
Therein the backIt must have been attracted here by the smell
Just then, a voice was heard from the transceiver on his waist
“Takemura-san, Takemura-san, can you hear me?This is the 3rd floor”
Yusuke takes the transceiver from his waist,
“I can hear youThe repeater see happen?”(TL: I think he ood)
“Ano, could you co for help but… is it okay to answer them?”
“I’m on my wayWait a bit”
It’s been a while since there was contact with a survivor
Yusuke hurried to the 3rd floor
“Help…… help me… anybody…”
Yusuke heard the sah the headphones attached to the radioThe voice also flowed through the external speakersMizuki looks at Yusuke with a worried expression, as if asking hi(TL: Has a rival appeared?!)
The radio on the desk was about the size of a confection boxIt was connected to the antenna on the roof through a coax cable and so the range was quite large
They had heard things coh the radio before, but it was encrypted noises and signalsThis was the first tih
The girl’s tearful voice had been coh for a few minutes, then cut off
She hadthe frequency before speaking againWith a quick scan, they were able to hear her again
While listening to her, Yusuke speaks to Mizuki
“Try answering her”
“M, me?”
“She will be ht?Don’t tell her about this placeAsk her about her whereaboutsCan you do it?”
“Y, yes”
Mizuki takes the mic in her hand, and presses the transmission button
After hesitating a bit, she opens her mouth
“Ano… hello”
As soon as she lets go of the button, the girls voice coh
“Help me!Where are you?!”
Mizuki was about to respond, but the reception light was still onThe other side was still sending the transmission
When the light finally went out, Mizuki spoke
“Calm down!Please remain calmWe can not speak at the sa, please release the transmission buttonWhere are you?”
After a short pause, the girl’s voice once again coh
“I don’t know!Help o?Nee!”
The sound of a switch
“…Ano, calm down, please listenWhere are you holed-up at?Is anyone with you?”
A small interval
“……Why are you askingto help?!No, noo, no more… tell me where you are…”
“Ano…”
“I want to come over… so please tell me… nee…”
Yusuke extends his arirl’s voice
Mizuki looks at him with a puzzled expression, but he waves his hand,
“That’s enough”
“B, but”
Yusuke speaks while re the headphones,
“I heard the footsteps of someone else behind herThe pauses in her speech were also strangeSoirl was a decoy”
“Eh…”
“What she was saying was inconstant, and she was trying to find our whereabouts right?Everyone is thinking the sa”
“……but……that person, if she was acting……”
“It is possible she was being threatened into itBut, it’s just as likely she wasn’tThere is no er to try to save her”
“…………”
Mizuki was downcast
Looking at her, Yusuke scratches his face,
“If you tell theht now, the herd of zoet any weird ideas”
“That’s…………”
Mizuki lifts her head and lets out a lonely laugh
“I won’tEverything Takemura-san has said has turned out to be correctI will follohat Takemura-san saysPlease do not worry”
“Well that’s fine, but…”
“………etto, I’ll go get the laundry”
Mizuki stands from the desk and walks into the hallway
At that sh
(What a troublesome person…)
Yusuke faces the desk again and flips the switch on the radioHolding the manual in one hand, he aardly fiddles with the spectru that there are no other signals
(There are too )
He could figure out how to operate the recorder and tiure it out
Returning to the configuration of the radio, he takes a breather
The calendar on the tabletop next to him enters his view
In the box for today’s date, there was an event written at the bottom
“Th… no, that’s today huh…… It came quickly”
Yusuke threw the manual on the desk
Taking his jacket off the coat rack at the entrance of the room, he heads towards the back entrance where he parked his bike
That night
After dinner in the conference room
“Fuuu…”
Whenembraced by the main character, Mizuki took a short breath
The ending credits had begun flowing down the large monitor in the conference room
Cracking his neck, Yusuke frankly gives his impressions of the movie
“Was alright”
“It was huh…”(TL: “Soudesune”)
A retired infor a terrorist, it was a movie with a lot of action
It wasn’t like nothing interesting happened, but there was nothing a that stood out
“It got pretty good reviews, so I was expecting a bit but…”
“Yeah…”
Once the end credits had finished, a preview came on for another movieAs the pro and changing
“Ah, this!We should watch this one nextI haven’t seen it yet, but it looks interesting”
“Heee…… it’s about animals?”
A federal investigator who could speak to animals used his power to catch criminalsIt was a comedyIt was quite popular and had three movies in the series
“Well, it’ll at least be better than the one we just watched…”
They had put a portable player and a sofa in the conference rooes of the table, various pastries, snacks, and PET bottles were stackedThe lights were turned off in the conference roos
The clock showed that it was 1:00 in the
It was Christmas
Stockpiling food and collecting hand tools had been proceeding smoothly, and so today they would relaxThe first movie they watched was a Disneytiht that the kids would like it and picked it out
After the kids had gone to bed, Mizuki and Yusuke continued watching , he had put in a zombie movie, but as expected, it wasn’t received well
