“…Have you calmed down?”

Back in the reception room, Fang Zheng looked helplessly at the blushing girl with twin ponytails in front of him. When she heard Fang Zheng's question, she lowered her head and nodded embarrassedly.

"Hmm, sorry..."

"Although it is our responsibility, you are acting too quickly..."

Looking at the cut on Li Mi's neck made by the utility knife, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly. Then he reached out and tapped Li Mi's neck lightly. The next moment, the torn wound healed immediately.

"In short, this is the situation... Do you understand?"

"Yes, I almost understand."

While answering Fang Zheng's question, the girl looked at the blood bottle hanging beside her with a complicated expression. Another reason why she was unable to run away just now was that during the escape, the twin-tailed girl also threw away the blood bottle that was originally hanging on her body, resulting in the "blood volume" in the girl's body not being enough to support her long-term movement. This is why she collapsed to the ground again not long after seeing Fang Zheng and others. Fang Zheng and others had no choice but to carry her back and then hang the blood bottle on her again...

"I... I remember now. I was indeed... bitten by a zombie, and then..."

As she spoke, the girl with twin ponytails looked at her right hand with a complicated expression. The teeth marks on it were still clearly visible.

"Well, young lady, although it may be a bit presumptuous...but do you still remember your name?"

"Of course... My name is Huifei Suzawa Kurumi."

...What kind of a name is this? However, what caught Fang Zheng's attention more was the other party's name.

"KURUMI? How do you write it in kanji?"

"That... Walnut."

“Oh…I see.”

Fang Zheng nodded after hearing Kurumi's answer. To be honest, Tokisaki Kurumi's name is pronounced as KURUMI, so Fang Zheng was a little confused when hearing Kurumi's self-introduction. Fang Zheng couldn't accept the bad habit of Japanese people writing Chinese characters and reading them in completely different ways. Obviously, from the perspective of Chinese characters, the names Kurumi and Kurumi don't seem to have the same syllables. I don't know how they can pronounce these two names with the same pronunciation...

"So...can I call you Kurumi?"

"sure."

At this moment, Hu Tao was completely calm. Of course, the reason why she was able to calm down was not only because Fang Zheng himself did not look like a vicious villain, but also because there were children everywhere who looked younger than herself. Although she was frightened when she just woke up and did not observe carefully, it seemed that there was nothing scary about these children.

Well... the scene I saw when I opened my eyes just now was too scary...

Recalling the scene when she woke up, Hu Tao's face turned pale. She still remembered that when she opened her eyes, she saw blood everywhere in the room, and her body was also covered in blood. Not only that, there was a person with pale skin and bright red eyes reaching out to her... Frankly speaking, this was simply a nightmare!

"Well, Miss Kurumi, this may be a little presumptuous, but... can I ask you about your experience? From the time this crisis broke out until you woke up, do you still remember all your memories?"

"certainly……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Hu Tao's expression was a little stiff, but she still swallowed and then began to tell Fang Zheng about her experience.

Like Kei Shidou, Kurumi is also a student at Megumi no Oka Academy, but she is already in her third year of high school and is preparing for the university entrance exam (By the way, at this time, Fang Zheng, Xiao Hei and others were surprised to find that this girl who looked exactly like Riyo, but was shorter than the other, was actually much older than Riyo, after all, Riyo was only in the first year of high school...)

"At that time, I was left behind for tutoring because my grades were not very good... Then suddenly the fire alarm sounded throughout the school. We were very surprised at that time because it was already time to go home and everyone had basically gone home. Apart from those of us who stayed behind for tutoring, there were only some students on duty who were still in school. We originally thought there was a fire, so we hurriedly prepared to flee, but we didn't expect that when we were about to leave the teaching building, we encountered a group of terrifying monsters covered in blood..."

Perhaps recalling the fear he felt at that time, Kurumi couldn't help but reach out and press his forehead.

"At that time, those people rushed towards us like crazy. We had no idea what was going on and could only flee for our lives. Later, it was Sister Ci...ah, Sister Ci was our teacher. She stepped forward, gathered us students, and took us to shelter. We finally closed off an area on the second floor and kept those terrible monsters out. It was not until this time that we received an emergency message from the government on our phones, saying that there was a biological threat and asked us to stay indoors and not go out..."

According to Kurumi, at the beginning, there were seven or eight survivors, who barely survived the first night under the leadership of their teacher, Sakura Ji. At dawn the next day, they found that the zombies had retreated, so they planned to go home to check the situation. Then, like Kei Shidou and others, they were also attacked by mutant zombies.

However, compared to Kei Shido, the enemy faced by Kurumi and others was even more dangerous - they actually encountered a tyrant! !

Facing a tyrant, they were just simple students, of course they were no match for the tyrant. In the end, only four people, including Kurumi, escaped the tyrant's attack, and then fled to the underground shelter under the leadership of Sakura Ji. But what everyone didn't expect was that there were zombies inside the shelter, and in order to protect everyone, Kurumi also hurriedly stood up and fought desperately. Although she succeeded in killing the zombies in the end, she was also injured.

Fortunately, inside the shelter, everyone found a drug to suppress the virus, which allowed Walnut to barely escape.

However, the medicine was not enough to cure Kurumi's illness. Not only that, due to the lack of sufficient food and water, everyone could not stay in the shelter forever. So in the end, at the suggestion of Sakura Ji, everyone decided to drive her car away from the academy to seek help - this was similar to Kei Shidou's idea.

However, compared to Kei Shido, the people who had been hiding in the underground shelter were not aware of the habits of this group of zombies, so they chose a very bad time to escape from the academy.

That was midnight.

As expected, not long after everyone left the school building, they were immediately blocked by a horde of zombies. In order to protect others, Walnut voluntarily stepped forward to block the zombies, buying time for others to escape, but she herself was knocked down by the zombies... Walnut's last memory was that she was pinned to the ground and bitten by the zombies, and then... she lost consciousness.

"After that, I was always groggy, and felt like I was having a nightmare... Everything was red, and there were zombies everywhere. They wanted to kill me, and I could only kill them again and again... I couldn't even remember how long I had this dream. When I woke up again, it was..."

Having said that, Kurumi looked at Reiya sheepishly.

"I saw her..."

"I see."

After listening to Hu Tao's story, Fang Zheng nodded, and then he exchanged glances with Tina, who shook her head helplessly. Although Hu Tao said that the others had escaped successfully, Tina had not found any signs of life in the past few days, which meant that either they had left the city, or... their escape had failed.

Fang Zheng felt that the latter possibility was more likely. After all, Kei Shitang and the others at least had some understanding of the habits of zombies, but the people on Hu Tao's side basically knew nothing about the habits of zombies. This might bring them a lot of danger, and they might make mistakes if they were not careful.

"But it's really incredible..."

At this time, Xiao Hei also began to sigh.

"To be honest, when big brother brought you back, we never thought that you, big sister, would be able to regain consciousness..."

"It's nothing, actually..."

Having said this, Hu Tao seemed to hesitate for a moment, and Fang Zheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he noticed her expression.

"What's wrong? Miss Nutella? Is there anything you want to say?"

"Hmm... maybe I was dreaming. In fact, I always feel that the reason I can stay conscious is because of a song..."

"Song?"

"Yes."

Kurumi nodded.

"My memory after becoming a zombie is not very clear. I only remember that I seemed to be thrown into a bright red ocean. There was a bloody smell everywhere, and zombies were everywhere. They emerged from the ocean and tried to pull me in and make me one of them. At that time, I felt as if my body was melting and burning... Then, I heard that song..."

At this point, Kurumi's expression became somewhat strange.

"I don't know why, but after hearing that song, I felt like I was cheered up again, and I had the strength to fight those zombies again... Of course, maybe it's just my illusion, but that song..."

“Song…”

Hearing this, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and played the song played by the DJ zombie again. Could it be that... that was the song Hu Tao heard?

It seems necessary to investigate this.
