Chapter 105.1: Surviving the Harsh Reality, Conclusion

Hey, I should have died, shouldnt I?

Shut up!

We were surrounded by a new horde of zombies as soon as we stepped into the central hospital, which had been designated as a temporary evacuation center.

The evacuation center had police officers and guards so the entrance was not immediately breached but we were completely trapped.

This all happened because Im here.

Stop talking.

I dont think anyone would believe that Kagee is the cause of the zombie horde but if someone did, that person might kill her.

Im panicking now. I dont know whats going to happen.

Fortunately, theres a lot of yelling and screaming so no one can hear Kagees voice.

The hospitals TV, which is left on, is finally reporting on the zombie fiasco.

It seems that it was a localized incident centered on our school and although the zombie plague is spreading, it is only a contact infection so it has not turned into an outbreak and the situation is reported to be under control.

As of now, there have been no reports of a zombie outbreak emerging at this hospital.

There, the sound of breaking glass was heard.

The entrance was tightly closed but it seems that they did not guard the sash windows in the yard and the zombies entered from there.

This made it impossible for them to hold them off in the basement so we had fled upstairs.

The first to be killed was Sasaki, a member of the soccer team.

He was brave enough to join the police and security guards in fighting to stop them.

The head of a zombie is rather fragile and if you hit it with a mop handle or something similar with a full swing, you can crush the brain and stop it from moving.

I wont say that hes being a hero.

He was already a hero when he went to save that little girl. It was a super cool thing to do but it made me shiver.

No one would run to zombies just to save a little girl, at least not me.

It was so cool but just the thought of being bitten is enough for me to go insane.

Its too reckless to hit a zombie over the head with a bow but even I, a coward, understand Machidas feelings a little. Saving a child from being attacked by a zombie is a survival flag.

I get it, Machida is right. He made the right choice.

Unlike me, who was scared to death at the last minute, he chose to be the hero until the end. If this were a zombie movie, he would definitely survive.

Unfortunately, reality doesnt work that way and the real little girl just cried and screamed, dragging Machida down with her. Still, the man who had been relying on his gear, had jumped on the zombies to save a girl.

Lets go, Kagee!

I dont want to see the last moment of our brave hero.

I pulled Kagee by the hand and fled toward a no mans land, not looking back at Machida whose screams are echoing behind me.

To tell you the truth, I was relying on Machidas long-range attack and now that he was killed, I could not go on any longer.

I realized that there was no way for me to protect Kagee with my fighting power alone and I was shocked at my helplessness.

However, I was still able to walk forward because I had Kagees hand in mine.

It seems that the elation and all-powerful feelings I had when I was at school were temporary.

Presently, Im cowering in fear. Ive been scared to death since a while ago.

The end is near for us too.

We gave up on evacuating to the rooftop and decided to hole up in a room at the end of the building near the top floor. We had no other choice.
