9 A Problem that Arose because of Something that Closed Down (2/2)

Seeing the two waiting for them with both scared and apologetic expressions, Mark started to have clearer thought about the vague ideas he had before.

The two inside tried telling them who were outside about the situation. Unfortunately, it was a futile attempt because the reinforced glass prevented their voices from going through clearly. Unless the two shouted, Mark and the others outside might hear them but the two did not dare due to their situation.

BAM!

Mark swung his baseball bat at an incoming zombie smashing its face into a pulp. Seeing this, two inside the store shuddered. After looking around, Mark handed the fire extinguisher to Ange after seeing that there are no apparent zombies in the vicinity that can be deemed as immediate threat.

”You know how to use this?”

Mark asked.

Ange who was confused being asked such a question nodded.

”Spray the contents on the floor on the directions where the zombies are coming from. I know you can do that. We need buy a little time.”

Being ordered like that, Ange pouted but still followed. If it were other girls like her friend, Paula, they might have declined due to fear but Ange who knew how to defend herself had more guts to do so. Mark also noticed this and thus, he did not hesitate to ask the girl do it.

Paula who was worried about her brave friend just watched as she also knew that she'll be fine.

As Ange started spraying the fire extinguisher on the floor, Mark took out his phone from his bag and pressed the power button revealing the cute anime custom screensaver. Upon unlocking the phone with a swipe, the next thing that showed is the high-tech looking theme with a wallpaper of a cute blue haired anime girl holding a high-tech plasma sword at her right hand and a double-barreled ray pistol on her left.

Paula who was just behind him saw this and was surprised and smiled wryly. Just who would think that this fierce and scary looking man that did not even bat an eyelid as he shoot his gun and smash the zombies' bloody faces actually had such hobby?

Mark opened a note app on his phone and turned around just to notice at the side of his view, as Paula smiled wryly with her gaze on his phone. He felt a little embarrassed but did not try to show even a little bit of it.

She also saw that Mark noticed her looking at his phone and also felt embarrassed and turned her face somewhere else with slightly red cheeks.

Continuing the strong façade, he typed a few words on his phone and showed it on the two who were inside the store.

”What happened?”

Mark asked using his phone.
