By the time he returned to the super market, it was dawnIt was still dark, but there were traces of the sun light rising up over the horizon

Aftersure there were no zo entranceOnce he was inside, he operated the switch box, closing the shutters again

With no lights in the place, the ground sloped towards the back, shrouded in darknessThere were e the way, but they were only bright enough to illusYusuke turns on his flashlight, and proceeds underground

He planned to prepare the car, then call Mizuki and her brothers and i zone with his flashlight, Yusuke unlocks the truck parked there with the remote on his key chainHe clihts, the concrete floor in front of hi in the truck, Yusuke leaves the lights on, and exits the vehicle

At that moment he stoppedHe had started to notice it earlier, but a strange s from further down

(…What is it?This smell…)

The sht in his noseIt smelled like waste

(Was there a sewage problem……?)

Following the shtly opened doorIt was the door he had closed when he took the wandering zo inside

“……………”

Yusuke pulls out his handgun while re silent

It didn’t feel like there was anyone nearby

Stepping inside the door, he checks the surroundingsThere was a passageway in the front of the roohtThe fire door next to the staircase leading to the front floor was barricaded

(Was it a zombie……?There’s no way Mizuki would come here…)

It could have been a zoIf that was the case, there was so down the three from upstairs

However, he wanted to know the source of the odorSince he entered the rooerIt appeared as if it was coeway nearby

Yusuke wondered what itfor the sourceThe passage he alking through shouldn’t be connected to the boiler room or the electrical room(TL: Idk of a better term for electrical room)

Relying on the dihts on his left, he heads down the corridorHe passed by several rooms, but they were all shut and locked

At the very end of the corridor, he finds a set of double doors left slightly openThe s from inside

(This place… was left open?)

With questions raised in his mind, he opens the doors to find a room full of trash

Sticking down fro were trash shutes which were connected to the first floorBeneath theo bins were overflowingThe trash was deteriorating into co fro waste filled the room

Re he read on the 3rd floor of the superht in his handThe hardly visible concrete floor was stained by the aging trashA bottle of detergent was lying on a rack nearby

(It was the s inside the trash……)

There was definitely the s from the pile, but he could still se

While keeping the floor in front of him lit up, he continues towards the back of the room

Within his light appeared a coh and twoof it, he flashes his light next to it and comes to a stop

Lying up against the side of the bin was a dirty blanketThere were pieces of cardboard holding the blanket up like wallsIt was a homeless hut(TL: If you can think of a better term…)

Hurrying over to it, Yusuke reh it was cold, he could feel residual heat coive off heat while fer

Bursting with frustration, he shi+nes the light all around the room

Scattered next to the hut were vegetable scrapsIt ht have just been trash, but they were over eaten, only the skin and the sprouts rens of scavenging through the heaps of garbageDebris had rolled to the floor and rotten juice was splattered here and there

Turning his head, he could see a faucet with a rubber hose attached to it for a wash stationAlong the wall, a drainage ditch had been dug to catch the water, draining it into a container in one corner of the roo over to it, he removes the square lid and is assaulted by a foul odorThe inside of the container was packed with feces

It was evidence of human life
