Lost Narrative Poetry

Busujima Yako was stunned for a moment, and his eyes froze, but then he smiled helplessly, with a slightly forced smile:

"Can you really read minds? Classmate Xia Ran? I knew I couldn't hide this from you... But to be honest, your behavior is really rude to a girl."

"Really? Let's do it all over again? I'll pretend I don't know anything, and you'll start the conversation. Is that okay?"

Xia Ran was very considerate, so he suggested this in a kind-hearted manner. After all, the other party had just made a midnight snack for him, so he had to repay him.

He didn't explain that he really couldn't read minds. It was just that he knew that Yako Busujima's character was very special and had a deep memory. In addition, he also knew some of the weird things he had done before, as well as his emotions at the moment. fluctuation--

Combining these intelligence information, one can naturally figure out what she is troubled about.

Moreover, Xia Ran didn't originally think that Busushima Yako came here to attack her at night and was ready to throw herself into his arms, so naturally she would not be deceived by the appearance, which would affect her thinking ability.

But in the eyes of Yako Busujima, who seemed to be predicting the unknown, it was proof that he was being read.

Although she had known that something like this would happen and had made mental preparations before coming, the beautiful girl with long purple hair still felt uncomfortable all over at the moment, as if she was being seen through the eyes of the person in front of her. There is no privacy at all.

She finally understood how Takagi Saya felt, and it was difficult for the arrogant woman to be able to endure it instead of losing her temper... But also, if that were the case, wouldn't she be like those who couldn't figure out the situation? Are the people no different?

Identity, status, origin, background...

These are just the "rights" before the disaster. In just a short period of time these days, almost all the most powerful people in the world have disappeared, all the rules have also changed, and the past society has directly That's it.

If they are still clinging to the things of the past, such people are not qualified to live at all. The world today is very simple, basically divided into living people and dead people, and the most important thing is "power".

As for how to express this "power" most intuitively?

Naturally, it depends on whether you can kill more zombies, obtain more resources, and have better ability to survive.

Ordinary people can rely on a large number of personnel, well-equipped armed forces, etc. to form a group force. The person in front of him has immeasurable power. This is a completely different concept.

Takagi Saya also said privately to others that if you want to continue to survive, you must know how to rely on others who have strength, instead of just following your own temperament, because you can only adapt to the environment, and there is no environment to adapt to you. reason.

Thinking of this, Yako Busujima shook his head gently.

Then she sat down directly on the chair next to her, stretched out her hand to brush her long purple hair, and let out a long sigh:

"Since Xia Ran, you know why I'm here, I'll get right to the point... I'm not afraid of killing people, you should know that, right? What I'm afraid of is that I actually think this kind of world is not bad..."

Xia Ran didn't ask why such a world was not bad, she just listened silently, took the late night snack next to her, picked up the fork and ate every bite.

"Because I almost killed someone with my own hands before. It should be...well, one night four years ago. Because this incident was very profound, I remember very clearly that there was a man who wanted to attack me. , but I had a knife in my hand."

Busujima Yako seemed to be lost in memories, her eyes were blurred and in a trance, and her voice was very soft.

"So I didn't hide, but deliberately led him to a corner. When he rushed forward impatiently, I severely broke his shoulder blades and thighs. The sound of cracking bones was mixed with his screams. Together, I actually felt so happy that I couldn't help but tremble."

"Then what?" Xia Ran bit her fork and asked vaguely.

"Then? Then I avoided police accountability in the name of self-defense. In fact, it was an over-defense... But considering the situation at that time, I was still a junior high school girl, fighting against that perverted pervert by myself. , so the police naturally favored my side, did not hold me accountable, and even drove me back home."

Busujima Yako laughed to himself.

"It was at that time that I realized that I had a strong tendency to violence, and there was an unforgivable dark side hidden in my heart... Just like in this world now, I am not more decisive than them and more adaptable to fighting, but because I was so excited when I was killing those things."

"Oh." Xia Ran nodded with a calm expression.

"..."

"..."

Yako Busujima stared at his face for a long time, and then asked in a strange tone: "Don't you want to say something? At least express your opinion?"

"Would you like to express your opinion? Well... I'm still a little hungry. Busujima-san, can you please make another one?"

Xia Ran thought for a while, then pushed the empty plate towards the purple-haired girl with a serious look, "I think the taste is okay, very good, but it would be better to be lighter... My taste is relatively mild."

"..."

"..."

Busujima Yako looked at him, and then suddenly burst into laughter.

She stood up helplessly and took the plate, her expression became dumbfounded: "It's not easy for me to make up my mind to find someone to talk to..."

"I know."

"I'm really worried about this matter, classmate Xia Ran."

"I understand."

"Then you're not going to say something? Shouldn't you say something to comfort me?" Yako Busujima looked at the boy in front of him angrily and amusedly.

"I don't think you need it. Do you think you have done something wrong?" Xia Ran frowned slightly, feeling a little depressed. Could it be that the other person just asked her to express her opinion and was talking about this, not about midnight snacks? aspect?

"Huh? I think... killing like this is not good, right? Do you think I can be saved?" Yako Busujima was slightly stunned.

"Hey, are you insinuating on me?" Xia Ran twitched the corner of her mouth.

"Eh?" Busujima Yaozi was a little confused, but then he realized that the man in front of him had really killed countless people, whether they were people or zombies, and he was really insignificant compared to him.

Moreover, the other party had no psychological burden at all, and was still smiling all day long. Comparing this, she couldn't help but hesitate, wondering if she was being a little too pretentious.

"Let's put it this way, first of all, we must make a clear premise, that is, if you want to survive, you have to fight and adapt to the environment desperately. If you don't kill them, they will come to kill you, and they are no longer considered life. There is no Consciousness is simply a moving corpse.”

Xia Ran thought for a while and said this with a slap on his hand.

"The same goes for those people. If you don't want to die, you can only kill them to prevent them from harming you. And the most important point is that no matter what you are thinking or what concepts you hold, the nature of this behavior It won’t change.”

It's all the same anyway. It doesn't mean that if you have a sad, compassionate, self-doubting, and self-denying mentality, killing is not killing.

In this case, why make yourself uncomfortable? As long as you know that you did nothing wrong, you are the one who deserves to be killed. Why should you feel guilty? It was really hard for Xia Ran to understand this idea and thought it was purely hypocritical.

Busujima Yako's eyes widened in surprise, but he quickly calmed down.

After being silent for a while, she smiled softly, her expression seemed to relax, and she muttered to herself as if she had figured something out, and seemed to be talking to Xia Ran:

"That's right, maybe I really think too much. No matter how much I think about this kind of thing, it will not change its nature. As long as it is necessary, you should do what you think is right. And since it is the right thing, why should... …”

Squeak——

At this moment, her words were interrupted because the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.

A pink-haired man with twin ponytails poked his head out from behind the door, glanced here suspiciously, and then asked with a suspicious expression on his face: "...What are you doing in the room together at this time?"

"Supper, do you want it?" Xia Ran smiled brightly, not feeling guilty at all.

"Huh, no need. I came to you to say something. I think this may be necessary..." Saya Gaocheng snorted, opened the door and walked in openly, saying this.

"whats the matter?"

"Don't you know how to read minds? Don't tell me that you don't know..." Twin Ponytail crossed his arms in dissatisfaction.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Xia Ran asked meaningfully.

"...I want to say that tomorrow we will go directly across the river to find my parents!" Gao Cheng Saya gritted her teeth, "Don't waste time. It will be beneficial to everyone to integrate the forces of both sides as soon as possible."

"Oh? Weren't you very opposed to it before?"

"What's the use of my objection? Will you give up on this matter if I object?" Gao Cheng Saya glared at him, "It's all destined to happen anyway. It's better to solve it as soon as possible, so as to reduce unnecessary losses."

"Are you sure you can convince your parents?" Xia Ran heard the implication of the other party's words and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"I am their daughter after all. What I say will have some effect..." Saya Takagi curled her lips and sighed. If the powers of both sides were to merge, naturally there would only be one voice.

However, she simply did not expect the person in front of her to accept the recruitment of her parents and become her parents' subordinate... That was simply not realistic, and could only be possible in reverse.

However, her parents are not easy to talk to. All she needs to do is to avoid conflicts as much as possible, because once a fight breaks out, there is absolutely only one result - she becomes an orphan.

"If you are confident...then let's get some weapons tomorrow morning and then set off directly."

After Xia Ran thought for a long time, he finally nodded and said harmoniously.

He had previously planned to take the protagonist group and a group of people directly to the house of Marikawa Shizuka's policewoman friend to obtain firearms and weapons, but because he went to the hospital and then took time to kill monsters, he was unable to go.

Takagi Saya's proposal is also very good. If he can avoid conflicts and directly expand the size of the team, he will naturally not refuse it.

Opening the personal information page and taking another look at the stay time, Xia Ran estimated the changes that would continue to occur in the future. Xia Ran felt that maybe the time for her departure was very close...

However, given the time and efficiency, there seems to be no way to add all attributes to the small bucket. It would be too unfriendly to obsessive-compulsive disorder...

(PS: There are many things to do during the Chinese New Year, and we always have to argue about trivial matters. We cannot talk properly. After the quarrel, we are in a bad mood. Then we will vent our dissatisfaction with us, the next generation, by frowning and looking at all kinds of things that are not pleasing to our eyes. When it comes to us... I really can't understand this kind of behavior, or is it because the juniors can't talk back, so they feel authoritative and have a sense of accomplishment by doing this? I just want to be quiet, but it seems that they are in a bad mood, so It must also make my mood worse, ugh...)
