You call this a love game?

Since it's an automatic transmission, all you need to know is where the accelerator and brake are. If there's no one around, just floor the accelerator; if there's someone you can't avoid, just crash into them. You can't expect them to brake unless you reach your destination.

All he could do was hope that Sakura Megumi's Beetle would hold up, at least until he got to the police station.

The journey was relatively peaceful, with few people on the streets. The zombies he could see were mostly in office buildings, where the lobby was packed with people, like waiting for an elevator in peacetime, with people pushing and shoving back and forth in front of the revolving door.

"That's really dedicated..."

Unable to resist laughing at the zombies' comical movements, Bai Yu simply stepped on the gas again and sped through the block.

Because he was driving, he couldn't directly cross the buildings in front of him; he had to take a detour, which meant more uncertainty.

As he drove onto a familiar street, he suddenly noticed someone calling for help in a nearby shopping mall.

The muffled sound echoed in the mall, and he couldn't hear it very clearly.

Bai Yu parked the car at the main entrance of the shopping mall, got out of the car, and took a quick look inside through the glass door.

There were some obstacles piled up at the entrance, indicating that someone had organized a resistance force here when the outbreak first started. However, a group of zombies were wandering around the lobby on the first floor. He frowned and did not find any trace of living human activity.

Are they all dead?

He had indeed heard a faint cry for help, but now he couldn't find the person, and the person hadn't made any further noise. Was he too late...?

After thinking it over, he still felt that the mission was the most important thing. He made a mental note of the place, got back into the car, and continued on his way to the destination.

As for the person who called for help... it's hard to say whether he's even human anymore. Even if he wasn't saved, it doesn't matter. Saving him isn't an obligation or a responsibility; it's just that he wanted to help out of kindness.

Besides, he still hasn't found the female lead. He came out this time hoping to try his luck and see if he could find her.

This time, since he possesses the powerful talent of being immune to all poisons, he wants to try to complete all the strategies in one go.

If a second simulation were to be held, he would be more constrained in his actions without this talent. However, if he had a talent that could enhance his combat power, then disregard what I said.

Leaving the shopping mall, he encountered almost no obstacles on his way to the police station, except for a few stray zombies.

After parking the car, he looked at the unremarkable police station in front of him, and after thinking about it, decided not to rush in.

It's the only place with weapons to fight violence with violence, so there might still be survivors inside. Although it's highly unlikely given the zombies roaming around the first floor, what if there are? Maybe the prisoners in the temporary detention center are still alive.

Bai Yu stood at the entrance of the police station. The glass door had been smashed, and police badges and documents were scattered on the ground. Several zombies in uniforms wandered around the reception desk. One of them was wearing a police hat askew, and its rotting fingers were unconsciously typing on the keyboard, as if it were still on duty.

"What a dedicated worker..." Bai Yu muttered to himself, gripping the short blade formed from the fragment of divine power, and slipped inside silently.

He moved forward close to the wall, avoiding the sight of the patrolling zombies.

The situation inside the police station was more chaotic than he had imagined; desks were overturned, computer screens were shattered, and dried blood was splattered on the walls.

He crouched down and found the police officer's badge on a corpse.

Naoki Takashiro

The man in the photo was laughing heartily, a stark contrast to his current ashen face.

"Excuse me, may I pass?" Bai Yu said softly, gently pushing the corpse aside and continuing deeper into the corridor.

A low growl came from around the corner. He held his breath and peeked out. Three zombies were scratching at an iron gate, the sound of their nails scraping against the metal making his teeth ache.

A label reading 'Weapons Storage Room' was affixed to the iron gate, and a faint trace of dark red liquid seeped from under the door crack.

"Looks like there's something good." Bai Yu narrowed his eyes, raised his short sword, and tiptoed around to the back of the zombie.

With a flick of his wrist, he instantly severed the head of one zombie, the head hitting the ground with a dull thud. As the other two turned their heads, the short knife followed closely behind, slicing across their necks, and the two heads fell to the ground almost simultaneously.

"Done." Bai Yu flicked the black blood off his knife, wiped it on the corpse's clothes, and then looked at the iron gate in front of him.

After casually searching the body, they found no keys or similar items, and were momentarily stumped by the door in front of them.

The door lock was an ordinary lock, but through the semi-open window next to it, he could see that there was another lock inside, and that lock was an electronic combination lock, so the weapons were probably stored inside.

However, even if he redeemed the master key, it seemed he wouldn't be able to open the inner door, as the electronic combination lock wasn't a lock with a keyhole.

Although the city's power system went out quickly, the police station must have backup emergency power, and the electronic door locks are unlikely to fail, making it difficult for him to open this thing.

As we all know, if a door is harder than a wall, then it is not a door; the wall next to it is.

However, there are many ways to open the door. The key is to open it quietly without alerting the large group of zombies outside.

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't come up with a good solution.

But when he redeemed the master key and opened the first door, he realized that he had worried for nothing.

Even the most advanced electronic locks will be equipped with high-strength mechanical locks as an additional security measure.

Using a short knife to pry open the keyhole cover, Bai Yu picked up the master key. The key was cold to the touch, shaped like a piece of liquid metal, and could automatically adapt to any keyhole. He simply inserted the master key and turned it casually. With a soft 'click', the sturdy blast door was opened.

As the blast door slowly opened, he couldn't help but gasp when he saw the scene inside.

"hiss......"

The armory shelves were neatly arranged with all kinds of firearms, shotguns, submachine guns, pistols, as well as various types of bulletproof vests and grenades. Ammunition boxes were piled in the corner, enough to arm a small team.

Seeing this, Bai Yu's lips curled up uncontrollably, and his fingers gently brushed across the cold gun barrel, as if caressing a lover's skin.

"This is a huge profit." He chuckled softly, and without hesitation, put all the weapons into the system item inventory.

Just as he had emptied the armory of all its weapons and was about to leave, he suddenly heard a faint knocking sound behind him.

Bai Yu turned around alertly and slowly walked towards the source of the sound, holding a short knife in his left hand and a pistol in his right, the safety off and ready to fire at any moment.

"Help...help..."

As he passed through another corridor, he noticed a door with iron bars in the corner, next to which was written "Temporary Detention Room".

Through the iron bars, he saw a thin man locked inside, with a stubble beard, bloodshot eyes, and handcuffs on his wrists.

Upon seeing someone approaching, the man instantly became excited.

"Help...help me..." came a hoarse voice from behind the door, as if he hadn't had water in a long time.

Bai Yu frowned, not responding immediately, but first confirming that there were no zombies around before slowly walking over.

"Are you a police officer?" Bai Yu asked.

"No, no," the man shook his head, his voice weak. "I'm just... temporarily detained..."

"Oh? What's the charge?"

“Drunk driving…” The man swallowed hard, his eyes darting around. “But it was a misunderstanding! I, I can explain! My wife was in such a hurry to get to the hospital that I had no choice but to drive drunk. Please, take me out of here!”

"What illness does your wife have that's causing such a rush?"

"She...she..." The man lowered his head and thought for a long time before finally managing to say, "She's about to give birth, yes! She's pregnant. I was so anxious that I had no choice but to drive drunk to take her to the hospital."

"Oh," Bai Yu replied calmly.

Seeing that he seemed to believe him, the man immediately became agitated again, "So please let me go! I haven't had water for days, please let me out! I want to see my wife and my children."

Bai Yu stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, "Take you out? What benefits can you offer me?"

The man was taken aback, then said urgently, "I... I can help you find supplies! I know where there are safe shelters!"

"A shelter?" Bai Yu raised an eyebrow. "There are monsters all over the outside now, where would we find a shelter?"

"It's true! It's at the military base in the west of the city! I...I know someone who used to work there, and he told me!"

Bai Yu chuckled and shook his head. "Sorry, I have no interest in working with drunk drivers."

"Wait!" The man lunged at the fence, his handcuffs rattling. "You can't just stand by and watch them die!"

"I can," Bai Yu said calmly, and then used the master key to unlock the detention cell door.

"Huh? What's this...?"

The man was completely baffled. He had just said he wouldn't cooperate, so why was she so kind as to unlock the door for him? He couldn't understand it at all.

"I'll give you a chance," Bai Yu grinned. "Let's see if you can outrun a zombie."

After saying that, he turned and left, casually opening the fire door at the end of the corridor a crack and knocking on the iron door a few times. The 'clanging' sound carried far, followed by the sound of messy footsteps in the distance, and the low growls of zombies getting closer and closer.

"What have you done!" The man stepped back in terror, his face a mixture of shock and anger.

"Let you out, isn't this what you wanted?" Bai Yu just smiled, leaving him with his back turned before disappearing into the corridor, replaced by the low 'hoarse' sounds of zombies.

"Fuck your ancestors—!! You deserve to be run over and killed by me, just like that couple!"

The man's curses exploded behind him, but Bai Yu had already headed towards the exit without turning his head.

He whistled and cheerfully weighed the police pistol in his hand; the gun felt heavy and gave him a great sense of security.

"Now, Ms. Sakura shouldn't be angry that I damaged her car, right?"

-

On the rooftop of Megurigaoka Academy, Yuri Wakasa was bending over watering tomato seedlings. Her brown hair was gently ruffled by the breeze. She accidentally got some soil on her fingertips, which she casually wiped on her apron as she squinted to check the condition of the leaves.

"They're growing well," she muttered to herself, picking a half-ripe tomato, wiping it on her clothes, and popping it into her mouth.

The sour juice exploded on her tongue; she frowned, but still swallowed it.

The 'thump thump' sound from downstairs went on all morning. It was Hui Feixuze and Hu Tao swinging a hammer to reinforce the railing on the first floor. The table boards taken from the school desks became the materials for building their defenses.

Although the noise kept going on, not many zombies surrounded them.

It was only because the noise Bai Yu made while driving away attracted all the zombies in the vicinity that they were temporarily safe, so they wanted to take advantage of the moment to strengthen their defenses.

"Kurumi, take a break." Yuri Wakasa poked her head out from the stairs and called out to Kurumi below through the crack in the stairs.

"Almost done!" Hu Tao replied without looking up, and then slammed the hammer down hard again. The nail was driven crookedly into the wooden board. She pursed her lips and simply used the back of a shovel to flatten the nail.

Four hours have passed since Bai Yu left, and she has been working here for almost four hours. It's impossible for her not to be tired, but she doesn't want to slack off and do nothing just because Bai Yu is gone. She also wants to prove that she is useful.

With the final shovel strike, Hui Feixu Ze Hu Tao looked at the almost impenetrable defense in front of him and let out a satisfied sigh.

She had completely sealed off the glass doors of the main entrance, leaving only a few gaps through which a little light could barely illuminate the corridor. She had also left a small gap so that it would be convenient to observe the situation outside from the first floor. The only way for the zombies to get through was to stick their hands in.

Chapter 124

While things were going smoothly at Hu Fei Suzawa Kurumi's place, Sakura Megumi was also diligently working on her tasks.

Although the school has various post-apocalyptic survival facilities, it seems to have forgotten to provide washing machines, which means that all the clothes they have changed out of in the past few days have to be hand-washed.

As a teacher, Sakura Megumi naturally took on the task, since she seemed to have nothing else to do.

In the bathroom, Sakura Megumi squatted in front of the tub, washing clothes. Soap bubbles clung to the tip of her nose, trembling gently with her breath.

Yuki Takeya sat to the side, idly wringing out a towel, water droplets dripping back into the bucket.

"Sister Ci, is this shirt Bai Yu's?" Yuki Takeya suddenly picked up a black T-shirt and shook it, a sly smile playing on her lips.

"Ah, yes, what's wrong?" Sakura Ji didn't think much of it, she was just seriously brushing the collar area with a brush.

“Hey~ But Sister Ci washed it so carefully.” Yuki Takeya deliberately held up the shirt. “She even scrubbed the collar several times. She doesn’t even wash her own shirt that meticulously.”

"Well, that's because..." Sakura Ji's face flushed slightly, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. She tried to remain calm as she explained, "Boys' clothes are bound to get dirty more easily, and besides, Shiraha-kun killed so many monsters. It wouldn't be good if his clothes got dirty and weren't washed off."

"Eh~ Really?" Takeya Yuki suddenly leaned closer, blinking her eyes. "I thought that Shiraha-nii was Ci-jie's blind date, so he would be more special in Ci-jie's heart. Turns out he's just like everyone else."

After saying that, she lowered her head in disappointment, as if she felt indignant on Bai Yu's behalf.

He braved countless dangers to reach the school and helped them so much, yet Sister Ci didn't feel anything special about it at all...

Sister Ci, you have no heart!

"I'm a teacher, it's my duty to care about everyone, no."

Before dawn, the campus was shrouded in a gray-blue mist. Bai Yu pushed open the side door of the teaching building, and the damp air immediately rushed towards him. In the distance, several indistinct roars came, like some kind of ominous premonition.

Turning around, he noticed that Takeya Yuki was staring at him expectantly, so he squatted down to be at eye level with her.

"Brother will be back soon." He ruffled the girl's fluffy pink hair. "Listen to Sister Ci."

Yuki Takeya's eyes were brimming with tears, but she still nodded stubbornly.

Sakura Ji frowned slightly, looking at Shiraha with a worried expression.

"Please be careful and stay safe!"

Now that things have come to this, she knows it's useless to say anything more to persuade Bai Yu not to go out. All she can do is wish him a safe return.

"Thank you, I'll be back safely." Bai Yu nodded, indicating that she would be careful.

After discussing it carefully last night, he still felt that it would be safer for him to go out alone. He also told a few people that he wouldn't get infected. As for how he found out, he just made it up and said that he found out on the day the disaster broke out.

Since she found that she hadn't been infected despite being bitten, and since she had nowhere else to go, she decided to come find Sakura Megumi.

Although the girls still had some doubts about his immunity to infection, they had no choice but to believe him for the time being, seeing how firmly he said it.
