An impossible thought finally came to Kaito's mind.
“Could it be..the corpse moves and goes from this place?”
At first he did not believe it, but by observing each corpse and clothing he was sure that Jung Leon's corpse had indeed vanished from that place.
If you think the corpse of a zombie that has not moved is eaten by another zombie, it makes more sense. Why is only Jung Leon's body missing? Why not another body?
Now, Kaito's selfish attitude bears bitter fruit.
“If you know this..I will not leave them..”.
He soon realizes that he left behind two teenagers who always saved his life. Kaito immediately rushed down and ran out of the library to catch up with Kino and the others.
As soon as he got outside, Kaito immediately ran towards the previous direction.
In his mind, he felt that it was possible that they had already headed for the main gate.
Since the road to that place was opposite the direction of this library, then inevitably he had to run back to the previous road.
After halfway leaving the library, he suddenly stopped running.
“Why are they here?”
**
On the road to the library, the three teenagers were still running while avoiding the pursuing zombies.
Song Haneul looked back.
“They are still far”
“But that doesn't mean we stop”
“You're right. Ryou, the library will soon” cried Song Haneul
“I know. This time, I already have a target for me to cut” Ryou muttered annoyedly
“Cut..he said..”.
Song Haneul had no idea how serious the sentence he had heard just now, but he knew that the three teenagers were indeed hiding something.
Just a little more, their steps came to a halt with a figure standing in front of them.
“Why are they here?” muttered the figure
Kino immediately shouted to him.
“Kaito-san!”
Ryou ran while holding both of his butcher knives with one hand. She leaves one empty hand and without further ado she instantly gives Kaito a ‘gift’
PLAAC
A hard slap landed on his cheek.
Kaito does not reject her at all even though he can stop Ryou's movements easily. He just silently received the slap and then saw the face of the ‘giver of the gift’.
“There's more to give me?” ask Kaito in a calm tone
“Still there! You want in the form of a clenched hand or an open hand?”
“....” Kaito is silent
“I opened the weapon usage option this time. It just so happened that there were two sharp meat blades that could give a neat slash. It just so happens that I've been doing corpse-cutting exercises recently in the last 4 hours and this can improve the way your brain starts to work that is not healthy!!” Ryou yelled at Kaito
The regret is expressed in the form of emotions in each sentence. However, there was no defense from Kaito's mouth.
“I..I am sorry”
“Sorry not enough! I know you've been crazy since we met, but this one's even crazier! How dare you leave me and Kino like that!”
Kino and Song Haneul approached the two. It did not take long, Kino immediately calmed the sister to stop being angry.
“Ryou, stop it. Don't be mad like that”
“I'm really tired of this ugly habit of his!”
“I understand. Calm yourself. Kaito-san too. You wrong. I told you not to rash”
Kino starts to show her angry face to Kaito. Kaito realized he was wrong this time.
“I will not defend myself. I was wrong and you deserve to be angry because of my selfish actions”
“We're angry not because of that. We are angry that Kaito-san did not take us with you!”
Kaito was surprised to hear that.
“Are we not all connected? If indeed Kaito-san wants to go look for the gem, even though I was against it at the beginning.but we will definitely follow you!”.
“Kino..”
“I beg you, don't be like that again ya”
It didn't mean to ruin the atmosphere, but it seemed Song Haenul realized that the drama had to end soon.
“Friends. They're getting closer!!”
Song Haneul began to point towards the herd of zombies that were already ready to catch them.
“We should postpone the discussion about this wonderful reunion and immediately do something to them!”
Ryou directly aimed the two knives in his hand at Kaito. Emotionally, he said to her.
“If you want to be forgiven, take care of your guests now!”
Kaito just smiled and without saying anything, he immediately pulled out his sword and attacked them.
“You have to do the right thing so I don't slap you again, Kaito! Remember yes, the weapon use option to cut you is still valid here!”
“Ryou, don't talk like that to Kaito-san”
“Leave it! I'm still not satisfied scolding him”
“We should do something to help him too!” Song Haneul spoke again
Kino and Ryou look at each other. Their initial heart-wrenching intentions were eager to help Kaito, but it seemed that it was all for naught.
Without the need to be helped, half of the zombie army was already decapitated perfectly. The three people just become the audience of the exciting ‘atraction’ performed by Kaito.
“He seems excited to welcome his guest” muttered Ryou while shaking his head
“Don't talk so relaxed, Ryou! We have to help Kaito-san right now!”
“No need to worry about him, Kino. Trust me, it will also be done by yourself. Let's see it from here”
I don't know why Ryou looks relaxed and Kino looks so panicked. Song Haneul could only stand still while holding the two knives in his hand trembling.
‘What is this? Why would they let their friends fight themselves like that? Is it possible that these guys aren't really good kids?’
Now, Song Haneul is thinking nothing. Thanks to the attitude of ‘weak soft’ and ‘kind’ belongs to Ryou.
Kaito quickly kills the zombies. The numbers did not decrease at all as almost most managed to catch up with them.
Kino looked at his pocket watch and became panicked after it.
“We don't have time for this! We're leaving now!”
As soon as he put his pocket watch back in, he rushed off running. Followed by Song Haneul who immediately ran behind him, the two of them immediately passed Kaito who was busy killing other zombies.
“Kaito-san, we're getting out of here! No need to kill them all. We're looking for another way to get away!”
It seemed that Kaito felt he still had to do something with those zombies and chose to still kill those who came. Ryou who had seen the older brother run first came running and killed the zombies nearby.
“Kino told you to ignore it. We're getting out of here. This time I'll be watching you from behind so you don't disappear like a kid lost in the mall!”
“I understand”
Running back to the original route, Kino thought of finding a way to escape from here.
‘How can we get out of here if those zombies catch up? What is the best way we can do. I think I remember something’
Kino's mind started to remember something. He glanced at Song Haneul.
[This is really a photo sent from outside. But, it seems that the distance in time is a little curious to me]
[The distance is only about 10-15 minutes? Why could? With all of those creatures outside and such large numbers, is there a reasonable explanation for this?]
[No. This might have been possible if he had known of a secret passage or something]
Kino could finally remember that the woman he was with might have a way to escape the zombies quickly.
“Song Haneul-san..how did you get away from their pursuit when sending the photos in the app group chat?”
“It...”
“Now, we need it to get away from them now”
“But, I don't remember”
“What?” Kino was surprised to hear that
“I swear I don't remember anything. When there was a commotion about the event in the beginning, I who was looking for Seung Chan heard the screams of many people and I do not remember anything. As soon as I realized, I was in front of the Faculty of Fine Arts building and immediately hid into dormer”
“Cannot..”.
Kino felt that it was very abnormal.
‘How can this happen? Does that mean Song Haneul-san was not aware that he had sent all the photos? If it is true that this has something to do with the power of the gem belonging to Kaito-san, it means that his actions back then might have been prearranged. But, I don't remember any such note inside his laptop’
When another bright spot was seen, it turned out that the other dim parts had not completely disappeared.
