Being a guard outside their eting place wasn’t easy. I had to find a suitable place to oversee everything and yet it wasn’t far from the supermarket. After wandering around the periter for a while, I finally found a nice spot on top of an abandoned building.
The roof provided a perfect vantage point and it was close enough for to hear everything without getting too close. It also allowed to hide myself from sight if necessary.
It took so effort to climb up here because the stairs weren’t safe.
Finally, I reached the roof on the fourth floor. Not that high but not that low either. I could jump to the ground without taking damage at this height but it was also high enough for to observe what’s happening inside the building.
From here, I could see clearly how Saeko and Miss Rika walked to the entrance and went into the building. I watched as the two entered, and then they disappeared into the darkness.
I tried to move around to see their location through the broken window, but I couldn’t see them anymore. They must have gone further inside. That ant I couldn’t protect them directly.
’I hope Saeko has enough. She is a genius swordswoman after all.’
I could see a few people in front of the supermarket, standing around like they were on guard duty. There was also a woman among them, looking rather nervous. I recognized them as one of those strange groups from before, but not all of them.
And I noticed sothing.
’Why is the leader of those troublemakers standing outside?’
Soone who clearly looked like a leader received reports from a few people next to the supermarket. From the way they moved, they seed to be as secretive as possible.
A few people tried to look around the area, most probably searching for military backup. And the leader was talking to a few people who were standing beside him. They were whispering amongst themselves and I could tell they weren’t talking about anything nice.
’Is there an ambush?’ I thought. ’I have to prepare myself to jump down and join them.’
Staying in this place might be bad because if they were indeed planning sothing, I wouldn’t be able to respond imdiately. So I decided to leave the building and go down the stairs, walking around the area until I got to the ground level again.
’Let’s just hope Saeko and Rika won’t do sothing reckless for now. Those people look dangerous. I still need ti to infiltrate that supermarket.’
Without the sniper I brought, my weapon was limited to revolver and my sword. If the enemies were humans, I was confident in fighting them. Even if they brought a minigun I wouldn’t be worried about it.
The problem was the infiltration part. These people guarded all sides of the building and I couldn’t enter easily without alerting anyone.
If they were zombies, it would be a different story. Zombies weren’t that smart so they couldn’t really detect my presence, especially if I hid my sll and sound.
Humans were much smarter than zombies and that made it harder to sneak past them undetected. Not to ntion I didn’t have any equipnt or gear for an infiltration mission, so this was going to be tricky.
Looking for the hole in their defense was no easy matter either. There were 8 people guarding this area alone and 2 more inside the building.
’Where’s their leader anyway? I can’t find him...’
I scanned the surroundings again, but there was still no sign of their leader. It was just a few minutes since I climbed down from the roof but I had lost track. I only rembered his face covered in beard, wearing sunglasses, a black hat, and a coat.
’No, I don’t have ti for that now.’ I shook my head and tried to stay focused.
I checked the area and noticed a small opening between two buildings. It looked dark, perfect for to sneak in. There were no guards around the area because it had no entrance at all. Only a smooth wall covered all sides. I quickly slipped inside, hiding behind a wall.
From there, I jumped and climbed the walls until I reached a broken window on the third floor and entered.
Just as I landed inside, I heard footsteps from outside and voices belonging to the guard.
"Hey, are you sure you heard sothing here? Maybe you were just drunk?"
"Fuck you! I wasn’t! I saw a shadow!"
"Whatever. It might be a cat or stray dog anyway. You don’t want to get involved in that."
"Uuhh... Yeah, I still don’t want to die yet."
"That’s why let’s leave. We are needed sowhere else."
I stayed still and waited for the guards to leave before moving. Once I was sure there were none around, I moved out and began my search.
While moving, I suddenly had a bad feeling. The words those guards left behind before leaving remained in my mind, and I had a gut feeling sothing was about to happen. I didn’t know what it was, but I had a feeling that whatever it was, it was bad.
Involved in that? What did he an by that?
And the other said he didn’t want to die yet. Which ant whatever they prepared for Miss Rika and Saeko or this evacuation zone could an death for those who got caught.
Sothing that could kill soone who got caught in it.
No matter how I think about it, it was a bomb, right?
’I need to find it before it’s too late.’
At least it was the only answer that my brain could think about.
Thankfully I rembered the room they used for the eting. A forr security office located near the daily necessities section. The place was close to the entrance and had only one door and no windows at all, perfect to trap people in case they had any suspicious plan.
Think, Daiki. If I were their mbers, where would I place the bomb to ensure that my enemies were dead? And how big was it? How many bombs were placed around this place?
It didn’t take a long ti before I found the answer.
The lower floor.
"There it is."
I found it easily. Three large duffel bags with beeping sounds coming from it.
My lips curled up into a big grin at that. Maybe I’d pull a little prank on those fucking group who tried to kill my sister.
