Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#55 - The Heart of the End Times

They returned to the Takagi residence without incident, and looking at the time, it was only a little after nine in the morning.

That is to say, from the time they set out, in less than two hours, Liang Yue and the others had successfully cleared the road to the sea airport.

The efficiency was unmatched~

In contrast, the other team, led by Takagi Soichiro, the head of the Takagi family, which was going to the large department store for rescue, hadn't even set out yet…

When Liang Yue and the others returned to the Takagi residence, the legendary leader of the Patriotic Association was just about to get into the car with his team.

They met them face to face.

Afterwards, when the party leader with a resolute and strong appearance learned about the situation at the sea airport from Minami Rika, he didn't hesitate at all.

He immediately made a decision, decisively changed the original rescue plan, and immediately arranged for the families of the technical personnel stationed in the Takagi residence's courtyard to board the buses.

According to the current number of people in the Takagi residence, it would take about three round trips to transfer everyone.

However, in addition to people, the most important things for survival in the apocalypse are food, drinking water, machinery, and various other supplies.

Therefore, only a group of protected family members and a team of accompanying guards were transferred first. The technical workers who could be of use were all arranged into the workshops to fully repair various civilian transport vehicles.

Subsequently, even Liang Yue and the others were temporarily assigned a task, which was to do their best to guard the safety of the transfer route to ensure the smooth passage to the sea airport.

… …

"This task is basically the same as having none. As long as you build a wall at those few intersections, with the mindless nature of zombies, they won't be able to get through for at least a few days."

On the way, it was still the same group of people as when they came, and Officer Minami Rika was still driving.

When the Hummer H1 reached one of the intersections, Liang Yue immediately called them to stop. He leisurely placed two rows of 1.8-meter-high stone walls at the deserted intersection and then returned to the car.

Faced with the envious looks of everyone, Liang Yue immediately boasted shamelessly.

Only Minami Rika, who was newly joined and hadn't figured out the situation yet, looked at him with a face full of surprise and uncertainty.

Kushikawa Shizuka, seeing this, immediately introduced someone's abilities to her close friend with a bit of pride. The intimacy shown in her words was like introducing her own husband.

In about half an hour, the group blocked all the traffic routes along the way using this method.

Simple and crude, but also extremely effective!

Just as everyone was standing at the exit of the expressway bridge, watching the first busload of transferred people successfully arrive at the airport, Miyamoto Rei walked over at this time, calling out to him from behind with some hesitation on her face.

"Um~ Ishii-kun."

"Miyamoto-san, is there anything you need?"

Turning his head to look at the female classmate who hadn't said a few words to him along the way, Liang Yue roughly guessed what she was planning at this time.

"Although~ it's a bit inappropriate, I still want to ask Ishii-kun for a favor."

"Just say it, there's no need to be so polite."

"Um, actually, my home isn't too far from here, so I'm presumptuous to ask Ishii-kun, and everyone else, to help me. I want to go home to find my mom and dad, please!"

After speaking, the little girl bowed deeply to Liang Yue and the others, not daring to raise her head for a long time.

"Miyamoto Kiriko, right?"

Hearing this, Liang Yue subconsciously thought about the final development steps in the original plot. It seemed that the protagonist and his party successfully found Miyamoto Rei's mother.

Then~ the author of the original manga, because of a bad heart, unfortunately passed away…

"No problem! Anyway, we're just idle, so why not take advantage of this time to do something meaningful."

Minami Rika said, putting her arm around Shizuka-sensei's waist and walking over, glancing at someone in the process.

Seeing this, Liang Yue naturally had no reason to object and nodded along.

"Don't worry, Rei, I will definitely help you find your mom and dad!"

Komuro Takashi, as her quasi-boyfriend, also came to Miyamoto Rei's side at this time, holding her hand and saying with a determined face.

"Takashi, thank you! And~ thank you everyone!"

… …

To be honest, the difficulty of rescuing Miyamoto Rei's mother this time was not high.

Because according to the arrangement of the script, Miyamoto Kiriko's range of activities was actually near her home. Relying on the bold personality of a former leader of a biker gang and a gun skill far superior to her daughter's.

When the group found her, this mature version of Miyamoto Rei was not only safe and sound, but also actively took on the task of protecting her neighbors and searching for supplies.

It's just that this Miyamoto aunt was obviously a bit of a bad judge of character at this time, underestimating the ugliness of people's hearts.

Under the enormous pressure of survival in the apocalypse, people's survival instincts will promote the infinite expansion of egoism.

For example, now, Miyamoto Kiriko has clearly held a long gun and single-handedly searched for a large number of supplies and placed them at the door of her neighbor's house.

But those people hiding at home are still unwilling to "risk" coming out to move them, let alone let her in.

The reason is, what if Miyamoto Kiriko had been bitten before when she went out…

Aunt Miyamoto, on the other hand, naturally felt even more wronged. I came to help you resist zombies out of good intentions, and I risked going out to collect supplies for everyone. Now, is this the treatment I get?

Afterwards, the two sides began to curse loudly, each holding their own ground, and it was at this time that Liang Yue and the others appeared~

"Mom!"

"Rei!"

The mother and daughter finally reunited, and Minami Rika, as a police officer, also stood up at the right time, speaking to the residents who were hiding at home with their doors tightly closed, explaining the situation outside.

Afterwards, she asked them to quickly pack their things, come out to gather, and follow her to the shelter.

Unfortunately, these people have already been frightened by the zombie-ridden apocalypse. Even though Minami Rika represents the official force, she is, after all, alone and weak, just one police officer.

Moreover, when these people learned through inquiries that they needed to walk to a safe place, each and every one of them, who didn't even dare to leave their doors, immediately became even more cowardly and refused her proposal on the spot.

"Damn it! These idiots are simply unreasonable!"

On the way, Minami Rika slammed the steering wheel hard, looking anxious and helpless.

However, Miyamoto Kiriko in the car had calmed down at this time, seemingly not wanting to be angry with those people anymore.

"Where do we go next? Do we continue on the road to search for the relatives of Komuro and Hirano, or go back to find a car to pull those people away?"

Liang Yue, at this time, leaned against the car window with a mentality of watching the excitement, looking at Minami Rika's black face, who was still unable to calm down, through the rearview mirror, and asked.

Minami Rika also glared at him through the rearview mirror, and said.

"Let them stay there! With the courage of those people, don't even mention going out, I'm afraid they don't even have the courage to say a word! For the time being, they are still safe…"
