“There isn’t a single zombie wandering outside?”
The group was surprised and quickly walked forward.
But at the junction of the stairwell going up and down, they found a piece of elegant handwriting written in chalk.
[Yumiko, if you all come out, you can meet up with us.
We’ve already cleared the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors and are now heading to the 6th floor.
– Yui]
“How is that possible?”
“No way, right?”
“Come on, how could just three people possibly clear three floors?!”
Seeing this writing, not only was Hayato’s heart shaken violently, the other boys also widened their eyes, finding it hard to believe.
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible…
I’m telling you, this is definitely a lie!”
Kakeru, having barely recovered from the extreme shock, turned around and said indignantly to the others, “It must be those three, Kiryu, Yukino, and Yui, lying!”
“They must be in big trouble right now but can’t swallow their pride…
So they wrote this line here, hoping we’d come to save them!”
“Now that you mention it, that makes some sense.”
Yamato pinched his chin and nodded in agreement.
“Regardless, how could just three people possibly clear three floors full of zombies in such a short time?” Several students were also skeptical.
“Yeah, they must be in trouble and want us to save them.”
The atmosphere instantly became relaxed.
Low laughter echoed among the boys.
They were gloating over Kiryu’s misfortune.
Only Hayato didn’t laugh.
He frowned.
“Regardless, let’s go to the fourth floor first and have a look.”
Why rush over so fast?
Let them squirm a bit.”
Kakeru snickered, nudging his friend with his elbow.
He felt extremely pleased.
‘Weren’t you all that when you casually swung your sword and killed zombies, Kazama Kiryu?’
‘Someone so brave actually needs help?’
At this moment, he wished Kiryu and the others would have to wait even longer.
Better yet, they’d start crying out loud in disgrace, so he could enjoy watching that guy’s disheveled, embarrassed appearance.
“There are so many of us.
Let’s go downstairs first and find some resources…
We haven’t eaten all morning, everyone’s starving.”
“Yeah, let’s find something to eat first.” The other boys chimed in.
“Then…
let’s go downstairs first and have a look.”
Hayato had no choice.
He could only agree to the group’s plan for now.
But in his heart, he felt like something was off.
“HELP!”
Suddenly, a familiar, terrified scream came from the third-floor classroom.
“Oh no!”
A strong sense of unease washed over his heart.
Everyone hurriedly ran back… Only to see a gruesome, scalp-tingling scene.
Yumi, who had turned into a zombie, had broken free from her ropes!
She was carrying out a bloody massacre on the classmates inside the classroom! This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
Her sclera was rapidly being stained by dark, black-red bloodshot streaks.
Tears of blood constantly flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Her mouth twisted into an exaggerated 270-degree gape, filled with dense, sharp teeth.
A piercing, heart-shaking sharp scream continuously emitted from her mutated mouth, making everyone dizzy, their vision blurring and distorting.
“AAAAH!!!
Yumi, what are you doing?
Let her go!”
“Monster, it’s a monster!
Help!!”
Heart-wrenching screams filled the air.
Yumi opened her hideous mouth and bit down hard on the neck of a female classmate who couldn’t get away in time.
Shrrrk!
A large amount of crimson gushed out like a fountain.
A large chunk of flesh was torn directly from the latter’s neck.
Red tendons mixed with shredded muscle.
The air was thick with the heavy smell of iron rust.
The female classmate’s limbs twitched twice, her lifeless pupils rapidly glazed over.
“Q-Quick, kill her!”
Hayato’s eyes were about to split open, letting out a furious roar.
He was about to lead the group forward to save them, when suddenly, behind him, a similarly sharp, similarly high-frequency, piercing scream sounded simultaneously.
He turned his head in despair.
He then saw, startlingly, a zombie in a white dress, with dry, withered, brownish hair, a hideous face, and blood-tear-stained pupils just like the other.
A Screamer!
