Chapter 27: Conflict
Takagi Residence
Sai’s once quiet house has turned into a noisy estate filled with different people.
The situation was quite normal, for a zombie apocalypse.
People are scurrying around the camp. Without a goal. Without prospects. Sadness, sadness, fear and despair were visible on everyone’s faces. Some are even insane.
Everyone lost their homes. Who was unlucky and loved ones. They didn’t have a job. There was nothing that could distract them from their heavy thoughts.
Recently it was found out that zombies are developing. They become stronger, faster, smarter. The hopes of some collapsed after this news. More and more pressure descended on the residents of the estate.
Some individuals couldn’t stand it and went crazy and committed crimes. ****, murder. There was even cannibalism, which is very strange, since there was plenty of food now.
Everyone was going crazy in their own way.
Someone thought that zombies should not be killed, because they are just sick people.
Someone believed that walkers were demons sent by the Lord as punishment for the sins of mankind.
In general, some staged scuffles demanding to prohibit the killing of the undead, while others smashed their foreheads begging for a place in paradise.
It would seem that only three days have passed, and what changes.
However, the usual day was diluted by newcomers who arrived at the estate. A group of schoolchildren.
Upon arrival, Yuriko arranged a campaign in the rooms.
It’s only been one day. One quiet day, as problems began with them…
First, Sai’s father, Takagi Soichiro, arrived and staged a demonstration execution of zombies. It seemed like a good idea to confront the people in the camp with the brutal reality.
But they didn’t appreciate such a demonstration. There were whispers here and there that Soichiro was a murderer and a madman. There was a seething in the camp.
And while Saya, Shiro and Saeko were having a private conversation with Soichiro and Yuriko, their teammates were pressed.
Hirano, Takashi and Ray were sitting in the garage. The cat by hook or by crook forced them to engage in the maintenance of weapons.
That’s just that they didn’t immediately notice how a crowd that looked like Soichiro’s people surrounded them.
– Wow, kids are not toys for you, hand over your weapons here. one of them said as he approached them.
– Wait! This is some kind of mistake! This is our weapon! – the Cat panicked and clutched at the bag with trunks as if they were trying to take his life away.
– This is really some kind of mistake. This is our weapon. Takashi said softly, looking at the crowd.
– yes! We got it ourselves! Ray stood up
– What are you talking about? Guns are not toys for children! Give them here. –
– It’s true. How can this weapon be yours? The milk is still wet on the lips. Let’s get him here quickly. Adults will figure out what’s what. –
– Really! You are in our camp! We have our own laws here! And children certainly don’t need weapons! –
– I don’t even know… – Takashi hesitated.
– Well … I …. – Ray shifted uncertainly from one foot to the other.
– Don’t be impudent, kids! –
– Quickly drive the barrels! –
A group of adult men put a lot of pressure on three teenagers.
– Well… Okay. Takashi said with a sigh.
– I am… What to do? Miyamoto stood at a loss with her rifle.
– No way! This weapon was lent to us! It’s ours! Hirano yelled almost hysterically.
– Don’t be selfish, kid. There are a lot of people here, and you’re taking away so many weapons. It’s not right…–
– Over my dead body! – rested the Cat. Tears were about to form in his eyes.
– Go get the guns from him…–
– We don’t have time to mess with capricious kids. – said the man and reached for the Cat.
Except he didn’t even have time to touch it. Behind him, as if teleported, there was a young guy who towered over all the adults by several heads. There was a huge nodati on his belt.
With his long arm, he grabbed the one who wanted to touch the weapon and lifted him by the scruff of the neck like a naughty cat.
– I just walked away for a while, and the jackals are right there. A crowd of spineless mattresses came to rob three schoolchildren. They decided to steal my weapon… Our weapons… Shiro mocked them, looking them straight in the eye.
Everyone was amazed by the developing events. First, this big guy crept up to them, then it turns out that he can lift a hundred-kilogram man with one hand without blinking an eye… And they stole his weapons.
– Let Junichi go! –
– Don’t push yourself, brat! –
– Everything is common in the camp! And guns too! You brats can’t be trusted with them! –
Such a bark can not affect the hero in any way.
– Really? When did our weapons become common? No one has informed us about this, and since no one has talked about it, it means that you are criminals who are trying to rob us at such a difficult time. So I have the right to cut off your heads…” he said, taking out his huge nodati with his free hand.
The whole crowd was noticeably frightened when a huge weapon came to light under the words of this bully.
Hirano, Takashi and Rei also “shouted”.
The enormous pressure even caused one of the men to lose consciousness.
– What are you bad for!? –
– Put the weapon back! –
– Help me! –
Yuriko came to the screams – What’s going on here, Shirou-kun? – she said, in a kind voice.
– Yes, I didn’t know that Soichiro-san had become a Yakuza. They are already robbing you in the camp. That’s just robbing me, you need to understand that this has its price. Shiro said harshly into the eyes of the crowd without turning to Yuriko.
– He’s lying, Mrs. Yuriko!
– yes! Don’t believe him! He’s crazy!
– Is what he said true? The elder Takagi asked.
– Well…Uh –
– I’m asking you! He told the truth! – this time she asked harshly and sternly, switching from “cute mom” to “monster with tits”.
“But mistress! They have so many weapons… – they exclaimed, but under the gaze of this “vixen” they spoke more and more quietly… So far, they haven’t stopped talking at all.
–Oh, please forgive these fools, Shiro. They are not as bad as they seem. It just seems like they haven’t had explanatory conversations with them for a long time. – again in the style of “good mom” Yuriko said. Except her eyes were boring into a crowd of men.
– Oh, good. Only out of respect for you Yuriko-san. Shiro said again in a calm, kind, and in general, serene voice, putting the sword back into the scabbard, also letting go of the man, whose pants were noticeably heavier.
– Hirano, you’re doing great. But next time, just shoot to kill those who want to take something away from us. –
– That’s right! – the guy shouted joyfully…what can shoot people to kill…
– As for you. – Shiro looked at Rei and Takashi – I do not know what to tell you… By handing over the weapons we found, you were putting your fate in the hands of others. I don’t know, maybe you like it when everything is decided for you. – he said a little sadly with melancholy and left.
And if Takashi didn’t know what to think, then Rei was annoyed by her weakness and spinelessness.
At that moment, one event was spinning in her head. She was captured, publicly harassed and groped. They were going to ****, and God knows what else. Takashi and the others could only watch until Shiro came. Now again… They were robbed. Takashi handed over the guns, she hesitated, and Hirano, in hysterics, categorically refused to give up the guns… And Shiro came again…
All this really pissed Ray off. Especially the fact that the complexed chubby had the spirit to resist, but she did not.
Such thoughts literally gnawed at Ray’s mind.
Surprises ended on this unpleasant event and the rest of the day passed quietly. Shiro was waiting for a restless night, because he and Saeko were finally given the opportunity to be alone.
