A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

Even if it's a broken blade, you can stab yourself in the abdomen to kill yourself, then throw the body into the sea, and no one will find out.

It was in this situation that Uesugi showed kindness to himself.

They should be accomplices, so is this actually Stockholm syndrome?

It made her want to go downstairs and pick a flower to do some petal divination.

But that would be too foolish. Most people don't get the results they want, so they choose to try again, only to end up with nothing but petals and stamens in front of them.

"what......"

As I sighed, the elevator doors opened.

Just as her thoughts were interrupted, Matsushita Chiaki unexpectedly saw Kushida, a classmate from her class.

"Goo..."

Kushida-kun, frowning in regret, leaned against the wall and limped toward me.

Although Kushida-san had always presented an optimistic and gentle attitude, that was completely gone at this moment.

Good evening, Kushida-kun.

Even knowing that Kushida was a problem student, Matsushita Chiaki still maintained a facade of politeness.

"Ah, good evening, Matsushita-kun." After a few beats, Kikyo Kushida resumed her usual disguise.

Matsushita Chiaki noticed that Kushida-kun was still looking at her with the same gaze as always, and her cute appearance did not collapse.

She admired him greatly for not showing any sign of wavering or emotional fluctuation.

"What are you doing here?" Matsushita Chiaki asked curiously.

At this time, on this floor, which is the boys' dormitory floor, and not even in Class D, or even in the first year.

There's only one reason why they'd be here, right?

"Hmm..." Kikyo Kushida's eyes lowered, and her gaze happened to fall on the clothes Matsushita was holding. In an instant, her expression changed completely. When she looked up again, her eyes were filled with coldness and anger. "It's nothing. Matsushita-kun, it's probably best not to come out at night. After all... there are no security cameras in the dormitory."

"What do you mean?"

"literal meaning."

Kushida, who let out a cold laugh, clearly regarded him as an enemy. Did she see the clothes in his arms and realize his purpose for coming here?

With no intention of saying anything more, Kikyo Kushida left step by step.

"..." Matsushita Chiaki watched until she stepped into the elevator. Kushida's words had also stirred up a lot of thoughts in her mind.

Rather than guessing, there were just a few points that could be used as evidence.

He seemed unsteady on his feet and appeared to be unwell.

They stood up straight, as if their buttocks would hurt if they moved even slightly.

And that hostile attitude.

With a variety of thoughts swirling in her mind, Matsushita Chiaki walked to the door, took a deep breath, and pressed the doorbell.

"Wait a mininute."

A reassuring voice came from inside the door, but she was actually a little uneasy because of what Kushida had just said.

Less than half a minute later, the door opened.

"Matsushita, what's wrong? Why are you here so late at night?" Uesugi Genshin asked, puzzled, when he saw Matsushita Chiaki standing at the door.

Could it be because of the Karuizawa incident that they came looking for me?

"Won't you invite me in for a bit?" Matsushita Chiaki asked enticingly, twirling a strand of hair between her fingers and blinking her bright eyes.

"Ha..." Uesugi Genshin scratched his wet hair and walked out of the dormitory. "Don't wander around at night. Sakura can still encounter perverts at school, and it's even more dangerous at night."

Slightly relieved, Matsushita Chiaki noticed him reaching to close the door. "Are you going out?"

"Well, I have something to take care of. What's up?"

"Um, your clothes, I've washed them." With that, Matsushita Chiaki carefully took out the clothes from her arms, and she also saw that the other person was still only wearing the same long-sleeved T-shirt she had seen before.

I guess I didn't bring any spare clothes, otherwise I definitely would have worn them.

"Ah... I see." Because of the darkness in the corridor, Uesugi Genshin did not immediately realize that these were his own clothes, since his shirt was also black.

"Thank you." After taking the shirt from Matsushita, he unfolded it and put it on; it was still a bit chilly at night.

He subconsciously tugged at his clothes and smelled them. This was his old habit of checking if his clothes were washed properly. If the fragrance was too strong one day, it meant that too much laundry detergent had been poured in that day.

"Is there any strange smell?" Seeing Uesugi Genshin's actions, Matsushita Chiaki was also a little worried. Although she had checked repeatedly, she couldn't overcome her psychological fastidiousness and was still afraid that there might be some special smell.

After all, it was liquid from there, and I rinsed off several times while showering.

"No, not at all..." Upon hearing Matsushita's words, Uesugi Genshin pressed the clothes to his nose and took a deep sniff to confirm, but instead detected a different scent. "It is a bit strange. Is this the scent of laundry detergent?"

"Ah..." Matsushita Chiaki lowered her head as if suddenly realizing something, her face flushed with a slight shyness. "It's probably because I was holding you just now."

"Oh." There was indeed no strange smell anymore. Uesugi Genshin was relieved and, while straightening his clothes, said to Matsushita, "Let me see you downstairs."

"Okay." Slightly raising her eyes, Matsushita Chiaki nodded, put her hands behind her back, and walked side by side with him.

The unease I felt earlier vanished completely.

Along with that, her worries about Stockholm syndrome also disappeared. After seeing her in person again, she felt that such things didn't matter anymore; she had figured it out.

During the month since the zombies appeared, they spent almost every day idly gathering together, chatting about trivial and pointless topics.

Although she didn't dislike it, she still found it a bit boring.

She didn't really want to say this in front of people, but in reality, she was quite proud of herself because she was among the best in her grade.

If it's in the top 10%, then it should be practically a sure thing for her.

Since the start of the semester, I have been playing the role of a good girl, after all, half of the students in Class D are in the bottom 10-20% of the grade.

In such an environment, if she were to exert all her strength carelessly, she might incur the envy of others and be forcibly dragged into some trouble, a situation she desperately wanted to avoid.

Therefore, she didn't display much talent in Class D and maintained an ordinary position within the class, but this was simply because she never used her full strength. Even in the girls' group she got along well with, they were all girls who were relatively weak in various aspects.

During this time, she would occasionally have the same thought: she really wanted some excitement. Deep down, she didn't want to just sit around doing nothing.

And now, going to Chiba is the perfect choice to fulfill her wish.

Having figured things out, she was no longer confused and went to Chiba.

-----------------

After parking the car near the intersection, Uesugi Genshin walked into the dock.

He could only come by himself; he couldn't bring Ayanokouji along, because this wasn't within his assigned duties.

Besides, going out at night is tiring, and if there's no benefit to it, the other person definitely won't want to go out.

Therefore, only Kiryuin Kaede could win him over.

According to Ayanokoji, when they swim inland from Tokyo at night, they always find a landmark, since the sea is very dark at night.

Even from a distance, you can see the towering crane here; you won't mistake it for anything else.

Ayanokoji analyzed that Kiryuin Fuka was very likely to land here.

The analysis suggests that there's a real possibility of missing out, so you might as well treat it as a nighttime drive... Although that's what I thought, it's not easy to get out here. The combination of nighttime and the hordes of zombies in Tokyo makes this ten-minute drive exceptionally difficult.

If I come up empty-handed again, I won't feel very good.

"Hopefully Ayanokouji will be reliable." Leaning against the container, Uesugi Genshin quietly looked at the pitch-black sea in front of him, his ears constantly alert to any movement around him, in addition to the sound of the sea.

This is indeed a good place, with a wide view and almost no obstruction around it. There's no need to worry too much about zombies. Moreover, as he walked along, he found that the zombies at this industrial dock had all been cleared out.

As for the landing site that Ayanokouji and Amasawa usually use, it is not here. Ayanokouji's landing site is in a coastal park on the other side.

He was worried that this place was too close to the Advanced Education Institute, and that sooner or later the action team would pass through here.

Time passed second by second, and when the hour hand of his watch had already pointed to ten, Uesugi Genshin decided to wait another hour.

The monitoring room of a highly advanced higher education institution usually has a few people on night shift until nine o'clock, but the monitoring of the entire school cannot be covered by just a few people.

The person on duty didn't intend to keep watching all the time. At this point, the surveillance was more like a record of evidence, so that if anything happened, they could check the footage.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

In the quiet environment, only the sound of the sea lapping against the shoreline could be heard clearly.

This made Uesugi Genshin somewhat worried, as even if the other party came up from here, they might not be able to find him.

He started walking around. The moonlight was pretty good tonight; at least it wasn't completely hidden behind the clouds.

The black dock in sight exuded a sense of dread, but once the glasses adjusted to the surrounding environment, it was still possible to see clearly by extending five fingers.

Actually, he was carrying a flashlight, a high-powered one, but turning it on now would be too risky and alert the enemy.

If you can see the light source from afar, what are you going to tell the other person?

Besides, it's not very dangerous now, and if there are zombies nearby, we can spot them immediately.

Just like..., he saw a blurry outline in the distance.

As expected, I still couldn't hear any sounds. The sound of the entire sea was like the difference between the ocean and a drop of water compared to the sound of someone coming ashore.

To confirm, he walked over there and, when he was close enough, Uesugi Genshin took out a flashlight and shone it in that direction.

It's a sexy black.

It was indeed Kiryuin Kaede. She had just finished wiping her body and was putting on her underwear.

Her body's curves were clearly visible; the beautiful arc of her expanding breasts and the full lines of her hips were a feast for the eyes.

Because her waist was taut and subtly muscular, her buttocks appeared larger.

Her legs are long and strong, with firm muscles, giving her an air of elegance and power.

In less than a second, Uesugi Genshin shone his flashlight upwards, staring at the girl's almost completely naked body, which was very impolite.

"Hmm?" Kiryuin Fuka quickly turned around after noticing the light.

"Good evening." Tilting his head, Uesugi Genshin greeted her with a smile.

"You..." Kiryuin Fuka stood up straight, hands on her hips, turning to look at him without any hesitation, "Do you know how scary you are?"

A face like a ghost.

In the darkness, the beam of the flashlight shone on his face, casting eerie shadows along its contours.

Just like the ghost story gathering during a training camp, some people would shine a flashlight on their own face.

Depending on the contours of a person's face, some people can be even more frightening.

"Um, sorry." Uesugi Genshin shone the flashlight on the ground and sat down on the spot.

Seeing this, Kiryuin Fuka took out other clothes from the plastic bag and put them on after taking out her underwear.

The key is the other person's perfect sense of distance. Their posture and the distance between them mean that if the other person harbors ill intentions, she can react in time.

This can be considered a sign of sincerity.

After finally putting on her sweatpants, Kiryuin Fuuka walked up to Uesugi Genshin, squatted down in a girl's posture, and looked at him.

"Go ahead and say it," she scoffed, but a fearless smile appeared on her face. "What do you want from me?"

Chapter 273: A Beauty with a Striking Contrast

"never mind."

Just as Uesugi Genshin opened his mouth to speak, Kiryuin Fuuka suddenly lost interest and interrupted him.

She reached out and took the flashlight from Uesugi Genshin's hand, examined it carefully, and then flipped the switch back and forth to shine it into the distance.

"?" Uesugi Genshin didn't understand her intention. This flashlight was a common tool he kept in his car, and there was nothing unusual about it. Moreover, he was sure that the other person also had a flashlight.

Immediately afterwards, Kiryuin Fuka stood up, took a few steps in one direction, placed her flashlight on the ground, and shone the light directly onto a container.
