My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

"What's there not to know? Hiratsuka-sensei's voice was so loud that it woke everyone up, and besides, the bed collapsed in the end."

Somewhat unhappy, still frowning, Yukinoshita's tone was very displeased: "The others are just being shy by not saying anything."

Of course, these conversations aren't the point; the point is what she's wearing now.

The secretary's outfit, an office lady attire that didn't quite suit her age, paired with black stockings that beautifully accentuated her legs, gave the girl, who was clearly only a high school student, a strangely alluring charm.

Levi's current position is leader of the Chiba City Survivor Base, while Yukinoshita, the younger sister, serves as his secretary.

In Japan, a country that values ​​seniority, the students of Minegashiro University Affiliated High School are currently the main force of Li Wei, but none of them have entered the decision-making level. Therefore, they spontaneously regard Yukino, who is temporarily serving as secretary, as a representative of their own people, since they are all classmates.

Furthermore, the reason Li Wei returned to this school to save everyone was to find the younger version of Yukino. Under these circumstances, everyone regarded her as Li Wei's woman, and anyone who said otherwise would be attacked on the spot.

As well, Setsuna, who had a certain relationship with the boy, is now also dressed in a maid outfit and working as a maid, which can be considered as returning to her old job from when she was working part-time.

Both outfits were picked up when I passed by a clothing store during a previous expansion. I also brought back a lot of designer bags and shoes for a blonde school doctor. I don't know what use these things are in the apocalypse, but anyway, Sister Juchuan is very happy.

"Is it really okay to dress like this?" Li Wei asked with some concern as he looked at the long-haired girl with brown twin ponytails who was pouring him some black tea. "If you don't like it, you don't have to force yourself."

"No, no, I can't help at all. I'm already very happy to be able to take care of Avi." The gentle and kind girl seemed to never be sad; the boy's mood would become cheerful whenever he saw her.

"If you take me back, my sister might come next time." Yukinoshita looked at the ceiling, speechless.

It seems that her family has also misunderstood her relationship with him. Ever since this junior high school classmate secured a leadership position, her mother would call her over every few days and ask her about the progress between her and Li Wei, as well as their time as deskmates in junior high school.

“Yukino, things are different now. We don’t even have the social standing we used to have. In the end, we’re just a woman with two daughters. We have no security in this environment.” Her mother earnestly warned her, “Now there is a great opportunity. You must seize it, or you will regret it later.”

Although her mother hasn't said anything like, "Go seduce him and make him unable to leave you," Yukinoshita, the younger sister, still feels anxious and uneasy.

She always felt that if things continued like this, one day her mother would not be able to hold back and would say such things.

Moreover, judging from her tone, she seemed to be thinking that if there was really no progress, she would switch to her older sister.

She was afraid to think about what would happen if her sister couldn't make it either.

"Yono-neechan, it doesn't seem like a bad idea." The boy imagined a large-sized Yukino in black OL stockings and thought it was awesome.

"You dare!" Yukino slammed her hand on the table.

"Alright, alright, enough joking around. Bring the documents up." Li Wei waved his hand, preparing to begin handling official business.

After all, he's the top leader. He can't always ask Yu Chuan for help with both domestic and foreign affairs. He needs to have something to do himself.

[Chiba City Survivor Base issued Document No. 1: "Notification Regarding the Commendation of Miho Nishizumi for Her Heroic Fighting in the Battle"]

The gist of the story is that a few days ago, a small team went to the dock to collect supplies and was surrounded by a horde of zombies. A petite girl in the team drove a large SUV and fought her way through hundreds of zombies. Yu Chuan said that she should be commended.

Such role models should be highly praised and approved in the end times.

[Document No. 2 issued by Qianxing: "Notification Regarding the Conferment of the Title of Model Worker to Akasaka Ryunosuke"]

The gist of the story is that after the internet went down, a cross-dressing guy named Ryunosuke Akasaka was like a fish out of water, almost suffocating. After the power was restored, he rushed into the server room and worked for three days straight, finally fixing the network. At least everyone could access the local area network again, and internal phone calls were working smoothly.

"We knew he was good material for computer repair the moment we saw him," said Iori Kitahara, a close friend of Ryunosuke Akasaka and who joined the survivor base at the same time as him, fighting on the front lines.

"I'll say it again, I'm not a computer repairman!" This was the sentiment expressed by the cross-dressing man after receiving his first model worker title.

The third document... oh, the third one wasn't a document, it was a box.

"This was forced on me by Goto's younger sister after she ran into me. She said it had to be given to you." Yukinoshita crossed her legs, her shapely black-stockinged legs twitching incessantly. "You wouldn't be going after a five-year-old girl, would you?"

"Imagining things is a disease. How about I take your pulse and prescribe some medicine?"

After exchanging a few words with his old classmate to ease his emotions, Li Wei opened the box and was shocked to find a piece of paper inside, and underneath it was a set of... underwear?

[Touma-nii, why do we still have to go to school even though it's the end of the world? And we have even more homework than before! Please, please ask the teacher to stop assigning so much homework. In return, I'll help you win over your older sister, okay? Here's a set of underwear as a deposit!]

Judging from this underwear, Xiao Dugu's figure, hidden under the dowdy hoodie, is quite impressive.

"What's going on in kids' heads these days? They still don't have enough homework." Shaking her head, she handed the box back to Yukino: "Take this to Pochi."

He then picked up the fourth document, the contents of which finally made the boy serious.

Chapter 28 Sunflowers Bloom at Night

[Qianxingfa Document No. 3: "Investigation Report on Survivors in the Base Unexplainedly Turning into Zombies"]

The report indicates that a survivor who appeared normal at the base suddenly developed infection symptoms yesterday, including a persistent high fever and lethargy. Initially, everyone thought it was just a common cold, but after a while, when his expression became frozen, his eyes vacant, and his body emitted an unpleasant odor, they realized something was wrong and he was promptly killed by the arriving security personnel.

"Could he have been captured and infected by a zombie during this time?"

“Impossible. The infected person has been at school these past few days and has never left. His classmates can all provide proof.” Yukinoshita, on the other hand, was fulfilling her duties as a secretary very well. She even wore a pair of non-prescription glasses, adding an intellectual touch to her icy demeanor.

"Moreover, when Professor Juchuan was dissecting the corpse, he did not find any scratches or bite marks, just like on the day the zombie crisis broke out, when people who were originally normal suddenly mutated."

At this point, Yukino's expression also became somewhat heavy. She reviewed the autopsy results from the blonde school doctor and concluded: "There are only two possibilities at present. Either some individuals have a constitution that causes a delayed mutation, and they were not infected on the same day as the others, but only a few days later."

Or perhaps the way the virus spreads has changed, from contact with bodily fluids to airborne transmission or something similar.

Clearly, neither of them is good news.

If it's the former, it means there might be many unexploded landmines hidden within the base. If it's the latter, then everyone probably won't be able to sleep well.

"For now, we'll implement a four-person dormitory system. If anyone has a problem, we'll report it immediately." Until we develop the serum ourselves, we can only treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.

The more important documents were placed at the beginning, while the later ones were about continuing to reclaim lost territory and preparing the new survivors ideologically.

Hanekawa is practically a superwoman. She can handle all the affairs, big and small, of the entire survivor base all by herself. Minor matters are never put on Li Wei's desk. Only important matters are sent by Yukinoshita, who often provides suggestions for solutions. In most cases, the boy only needs to agree.

Regarding ideological work, many survivors now regard him as a savior. Especially after he demonstrated superhuman fighting ability and an iron-fisted approach to suppressing protesters, many people regard him as a god.

Japan may not have much else to offer, but it's rife with cults and heretics. Saeko has discovered more than once that people are privately creating idols of Livy. A couple of days ago, a guy named Houtarou Oreki privately reported that because of his good writing skills, someone contacted him wanting to write a book promoting Livy as a god, titled "The Holy Scripture of the Savior."

Absolute trust and adoration for a leader can undoubtedly maximize a team's cohesion and morale, but its drawbacks are also obvious; it is a double-edged sword.

"Let's stop this behavior after things are settled here."

Li Wei has always been uninterested in spirits and deities, respecting them while keeping them at a distance. However, with the situation only recently stabilized, rashly interfering with anything that could be used to unite people's hearts might lead to even bigger problems.

After office hours ended, the boy sipped the black tea brewed by Yukino and watched with great interest as she packed up her documents.

This is the first time I've seen this outfit, so I'm a little curious.

"How long do you think it will take?" Feeling Li Wei's gaze, Yukinoshita, who was originally about to leave with Yukina, stopped in her tracks: "Does this outfit look good?"

"It really is beautiful." The young man was never stingy with his praise for beauty: "I love the existence of beauty, and I couldn't help but look at it for a while longer."

"You should fix your own bed first," Yukino said, her sharp tongue never one to back down. "While it's normal for bosses to have relationships with their female secretaries and bodyguards, there are also those who won't allow it!"

Well, from a certain perspective, the fact that she feels so comfortable saying whatever she wants can be seen as a sign of trust in Li Wei's character.

If it were someone else, unless they were a herbivore, they probably would have eaten Yukinoshita's family bucket countless times.

For Li Wei, having someone who still treats him like a classmate and bickers with him is a kind of mental relaxation.

"That's even rarer than a sunflower blooming at night, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, it's about the same time when the hydrangea withers."

After tidying up the documents, Secretary Yukino saw that her friend Yukina had already reached the door. She leaned close to the boy's ear and whispered, "Thank you," before leaving.

Then he turned and left, closing the door behind him.

"...Ah, really..."

I was slightly surprised.

Just like she never expected that Yukino, with her awkward personality, would say thank you to her like that, even if it was just a whisper.

Back in her room, the second young lady, facing her true feelings, leaned against the wall and sat on the bed, hugging her knees.

She didn't say it, but she knew in her heart that this period had been a very happy time for her.

If we just keep living like this, maybe one day the sunflowers will really bloom at night? Then Mom and my sister can feel a little more at ease.

Ugh, Yukino Yukinoshita, what are you thinking? Are you just going through puberty and need a man? What's so great about a man who's with three women at the same time?

While stroking the kitten they had found, Yukinoshita, in her smaller size, covered her head with the blanket and refused to come out.

……

"Oh ho ho ho ho!!!"

Inside the medical research lab, Shizuka Marikawa watched everything unfolding under the microscope and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This is amazing! The boy had just approached her, saying his bodily fluids could eliminate the virus, and she thought he was joking. But it turns out, judging by the results, he was right.

This also caused a change in the way she looked at Li Wei.

If before we were looking for grooms who were promising and successful, now we're looking for grooms who are so promising and successful they seem like gods descended from heaven.

It conveys a sense of "You still say you're not a savior?!"

"So, is it possible to develop a serum to treat the virus from this?" The way he looked at Kamisama made Li Wei a little uncomfortable.

“Theoretically it is possible, but the experimental equipment is still too rudimentary, and we don’t have enough manpower.” Shizuka Marikawa shook her head: “In addition, the sample size is too small. We use up all the samples after just one experiment. We need to provide more bodily fluids.”

That's alright, the blonde school doctor won't need many.

Thinking of this, the boy rolled up his sleeves and bared his arms, ready to bleed a little. However, his actions were stopped by Sister Juchuan.

"Well, in order to study the effects of different bodily fluids on eliminating viruses, I need you to provide various bodily fluids, not just blood."

At this point, the blonde school doctor swallowed hard and looked in a certain direction: "So, thank you for your help, Avi~"

Li Wei: "..."

Chapter 29 Everything is for humanity and science

As we all know, experimental research is very time-consuming, so Li Wei went to the research lab at noon and didn't return until the afternoon, exhausted. No one thought anything was wrong.

Everything is for the sake of science and humanity.

"Waaaaah, waaaaah oh ho ho ho ho ho ho! (According to my research, Avi, your bodily fluids do have a very strong disinfecting effect, better than any drug currently available!)" The blonde school doctor was so busy that he couldn't stop smiling. He was taking samples and conducting experiments at the same time, while also explaining the experimental results to the boy. The noble character of a white-clad angel was on full display.

In the main world, Marikawa graduated from the medical school of Keio University. This world line should be similar. She may seem a bit confused in general, but her medical skills are truly impeccable.

Through a simple classification experiment, the ranking of the virus-killing efficiency of bodily fluids was easily determined.

"Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh, ugh ugh ugh! (The most effective disinfectant is [beep], followed by blood, and then other bodily fluids are about the same strength.)"

This ranking order is indeed expected, after all, blood is the source of human magic, and [beep] is concentrated blood, while other bodily fluids do not contain much magic.

However, the request made by Sister Juchuan was a little bit excessive.

“I’m happy to cooperate with the experiment, but are you serious, Ju Chuan-nee?” Li Wei pressed down on the blonde school doctor’s head, making her look up so they could meet each other’s eyes: “An experiment requires 50 liters of blood. Even if you drained me dry, you couldn’t give me that much, could you?”

"Waaaaaah! (We need just this many viruses to destroy the world!)"

"Even if the blood is fine, what the hell is this, 100 liters?"

"Wa ...

"You make it sound so simple, are you serious about this number?"

"Of course I'm serious."

After completing another sampling and carefully preserving the precious experimental equipment, Shizuka Marikawa rubbed her sore cheeks, mouth, and swollen front armor, and was finally able to speak normally: "Anyway, Avi, your sample size is larger, so I'll help you a thousand times, that'll be enough."

Besides, don't you have so many girls around you? Let's all help out; it's all for science and humanity!

"But why do I feel like you're just doing this for your own pleasure, Kikukawa-nee?"

"In short, current experimental results show that as long as the patient has not yet completed the infection, absorbing 500 ml of your blood or 50 ml of [beep] will allow them to return to normal." The blonde school doctor wiped his mouth, took a step to leave, but his legs gave way and he sat down on the ground.

It looks like he's exhausted and will need some time to recover.

Making such a great sacrifice for science and humanity, he truly deserves the title of a healer with a compassionate heart.

“My legs are giving out, you do it yourself.” The blond school doctor simply lay down and gestured for the boy to continue the sampling.

"All right……"

……

the other side.

Two security guards standing guard in front of the medical research building were whispering to each other.

"Mr. Touma has been inside for almost an afternoon and hasn't even had lunch yet."

"Yes, I imagine you're engaged in intense medical discussions with Ms. Kikukawa, to the point of neglecting sleep and meals."

"As expected of Mr. Touma, he is truly touching."
