Toshishima Saeko's pupils shrank when she saw Su Yi and the others.
How did they find us? she wondered.
Toshishima Saeko eyed the five people before her warily.
She felt they were all radiating an aura of suspicion.
Su Yi saw how guarded Toshishima Saeko was and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, "Well, well, don't be so on edge. Isn't it true that in this world, there's strength in numbers?"
However, what Su Yi didn't know was that in Toshishima Saeko's eyes, he practically had "I am the villain" written all over his face!
Toshishima Saeko gripped the wooden sword in her hand tightly, instinctively stepping in front of the others, her gaze fixed on Su Yi.
"You're not from the school, are you? State your purpose."
Su Yi looked at Toshishima Saeko with a smile on his face.
He could clearly feel Toshishima Saeko's slightly trembling body.
Apparently, as an ordinary person, Toshishima Saeko was still somewhat nervous when facing them.
Especially since there was a Whitebeard standing next to him, who was 216 centimeters tall and holding the Murakumogiri, one of the twelve supreme grade blades.
Several thoughts flashed through his mind, and the smile on Su Yi's face became even more intense, "Hey~ Actually, we're here specifically to protect you."
Truth!
As the Chat Group's group owner, it was only natural for Su Yi to protect future members of the group.
However, in this situation, Toshishima Saeko was even more suspicious.
Takagi Saya also started to use her brain, observing the clothes of Su Yi and the others.
The people present, except for Su Yi and Yuuki Asuna, were dressed similarly to them.
The rest of them could be said to be wearing bizarre outfits!
As bizarre as could be.
"Toshishima..."
Takagi Saya was about to remind Toshishima Saeko.
But she was stopped by Toshishima Saeko's look.
Only then did she hear Toshishima Saeko say, "I don't care what you all think, but if we don't leave the School now, we will be completely surrounded by Zombies. It will be even more difficult to escape then."
Su Yi: "So?"
"So, regardless of what you all are thinking right now, let's cooperate for the time being. Once we get out of the School Building, we can go our separate ways, how does that sound?"
Toshishima Saeko said to Su Yi.
While speaking, Toshishima Saeko was also cautiously guarding against the other four people beside Su Yi.
In Toshishima Saeko's opinion, the four people beside Su Yi were likely there to protect him.
Adding to her assessment, the Su Yi in front of her didn't seem to have much combat power.
If those four made any move, at her current distance, she could completely use Su Yi as a hostage!
Su Yi nodded slightly after hearing Toshishima Saeko's words.
From Toshishima Saeko's perspective, this was perfectly reasonable.
In this apocalyptic world, the most dangerous thing was not the zombies, but the human heart!
At this moment, Komuro Takashi, standing nearby, voiced his thoughts to Toshishima Saeko and Su Yi.
"There's strength in numbers. Why don't we form a team right now? With a team, we'll definitely become stronger. If we have clear divisions of labor, we won't fear even a multitude of zombies."
Komuro Takashi spoke with great confidence.
His idea was completely different from Toshishima Saeko's.
After hearing Komuro Takashi's idea, Hirano Toda also nodded in agreement.
He supported Komuro Takashi's viewpoint.
Seeing someone agree with him, the smile on Komuro Takashi's face grew even brighter.
He harbored his own ambitions.
As long as he could become the leader of the team.
Then, survival wouldn't be a problem, and he could even have women on both arms!
Thinking of this, Komuro Takashi couldn't help but reveal a confident smile.
Unbeknownst to him, in the hearts of Takagi Saya and Toshishima Saeko, he was already being cursed!
They could even guess most of Komuro Takashi's thoughts.
This made the two women feel disgusted.
Just as they were pondering how to handle this situation tactfully.
Su Yi, standing in front of Toshishima Saeko, slowly smiled and said, "Alright, you're right, there's strength in numbers~"
As Su Yi's words fell, Takagi Saya and Toshishima Saeko's hearts sank.
They could both sense the smile on Su Yi's face, a smile that was clearly directed at them.
Their nerves immediately tensed.
Because no matter how they looked at it, if their team were to clash with Su Yi's, they were certain to lose.
Adding to that, Su Yi had specifically come into the School Building from outside just to find them, which felt incredibly strange.
Toshishima Saeko found it hard to believe that these guys didn't have some ulterior motive.
And at that moment, Komuro Takashi did something that made them feel utterly defeated.
They saw Komuro Takashi, smiling, walk up to Su Yi and extend a hand, saying, "Nice to meet you."
Su Yi merely glanced at Komuro Takashi before turning his attention to Toshishima Saeko. He said to her, "I look forward to working with you."
I look forward to working with you!
In all possible senses of the phrase.
As Su Yi finished speaking, he turned and began walking towards the exit of the School.
It looked as though he was clearing the path.
No one noticed the dark look that flickered in Komuro Takashi's eyes as he walked at the end of the group.
In the Chat Group.
Esdeath: "I'm curious, have you found the ninth member, Toshishima Saeko?"
Su Yi: "I've found her."
Hyuga Hinata: "What's Toshishima Saeko-neechan like?"
Edward Elric: "{Curious.JPG}"
C.C.: "I think Toshishima Saeko is an excellent person. She's great both in terms of personality and ability."
Yuuki Asuna: "Indeed. I feel like if Toshishima Saeko joins the Chat Group, her strength will definitely improve quickly, and she'll become a very reliable member~"
Unohana Retsu: "However, there's a man here who's disgusting. His gaze makes me sick. I want to kill him! @Su Yi."
Su Yi: "Hahahaha, I thought I was the only one who felt that way. Komuro Takashi is such an idiot. In this kind of apocalyptic world, he still wants to control groups stronger than himself. I have to say, that kind of thinking is really naive!"
Su Yi: "@Unohana Retsu, tell me when you can't hold back, and I'll team up with you."
Unohana Retsu: "The pleasure is all mine."
Su Yi walked in the middle of the hallway.
A slight smile played on his lips.
They were fighting here while also chatting in the Chat Group.
This was also a form of secret communication.
And Toshishima Saeko and the others were secretly shocked after seeing the battle of Whitebeard and the others.
They only felt that escaping later might not be easy.
Subtly, Toshishima Saeko and the others were somewhat repulsed by Komuro Takashi and the others.
Komuro Takashi didn't notice any of this at the moment.
He was lost in self-admiration.
Each time he defeated a zombie, he felt himself becoming more and more powerful.
This feeling lingered in Komuro Takashi's heart.
Even his childhood friend, Miyamoto Rei, noticed a slight change in Komuro Takashi.
However, as they continued to break through, the number of zombies around them increased.
It was no longer a time to quietly contemplate things.
The urgent matter at hand was to break out of the School!
Just as Miyamoto Rei was distracted.
Five zombies in front of her suddenly lunged.
In an instant, Miyamoto Rei's face turned ashen.
If she were fighting them one-on-one, Miyamoto Rei wouldn't have been so afraid.
But facing five zombies at once sent a bone-chilling cold that burrowed deep into her marrow.
No! Don't!
I don't want to die yet!
I still don't know if my parents are alive!
If they knew I'd been bitten by a zombie, wouldn't they be heartbroken?
Miyamoto Rei's body stiffened.
At this critical moment, Su Yi's voice cut through the air, "Unohana Retsu."
Unohana Retsu, hearing her name, curved her lips into a smile.
Her figure flashed, appearing instantly before Miyamoto Rei.
Like a Yamato Nadeshiko, she swiftly drew her Zanpakuto.
Unohana Retsu's aura underwent a drastic change.
The serene atmosphere of a Yamato Nadeshiko transformed into a surging battle intent.
Blade light flashed.
Five zombies were cleaved in two.
The zombies, their brains destroyed, fell directly to the ground.
Then, Unohana Retsu slowly sheathed her blade.
She stood once more beside Su Yi.
Toshishima Saeko witnessed this.
It gave Toshishima Saeko an indescribable feeling.
"The School Building entrance is up ahead, I remember there's a school bus there, we can take the bus and leave, oh~"
Marikawa Shizuka said, then started walking forward.
Toshishima Saeko couldn't help but say to Marikawa Shizuka, seeing the situation, "Hey! Watch out for the zombies!"
Su Yi saw how Marikawa Shizuka was acting and thought to himself: Sure enough, this woman is really hopelessly silly!
Thinking this, Su Yi then said, "Asuna, C.C!"
As Su Yi called out these two names.
Yuuki Asuna and C.C. immediately followed beside Marikawa Shizuka, covering her as she ran towards the bus.
Toshishima Saeko, after killing a zombie, said to Su Yi, "Thank you."
Although Toshishima Saeko didn't know the purpose of Su Yi and the others, she still expressed her gratitude.
To this, Su Yi said lightly, "After all, she's someone you brought out, so we have to protect her, right?"
As Su Yi's words fell, he turned to Whitebeard beside him and said, "Whitebeard, clear the area!"
"Clear the area?"
Toshishima Saeko unconsciously furrowed her eyebrows, turning to look at Whitebeard beside her.
She didn't quite understand what clearing the area meant.
Not just Toshishima Saeko, but also Takagi Saya and Miyamoto Rei turned to look at Whitebeard.
Hearing Su Yi's words, Whitebeard took a deep breath, his muscles bulging even more.
Then, Whitebeard burst into a hearty laugh, "Guraraharara, leave it to me!"
As Whitebeard's words fell, he raised the Murakumogiri in his hand and charged towards the horde of Zombies with great strides.
Immediately, Toshishima Saeko and the others' pupils shrank…
