176. Shen Gongyi's sudden inspiration.
176
[Simulation continues.]
[You took Rei Miyamoto and Saeko Busujima out to search for supplies, and Yuriko Takagi followed with her people.]
[Your group consisted of about ten people, which was a bit too many, so you took a school bus. (Actually, it was a replica school bus that you kept in your backpack; you lied to the others and said you had fixed it.)]
[Because the zombie crisis has been ongoing for some time, many people staying at home are gradually running out of supplies and are risking danger to search for them, which has led to a shortage of resources.]
Then, a photograph appeared in front of Jingu Yi.
The photo shows a street in a dilapidated state, with scattered zombies on the street.
A convenience store can be seen in the corner of the photo. Inside, there is nothing left but some packaging bags.
There's nothing we can do about it! People have to eat when they're hungry, otherwise they'll die! Looking at the photos on the virtual screen, Shengu Yi thought to himself.
Then, Jingu Yi continued to look at the virtual screen.
Because of you, you found a lot of supplies this time. You gave most of them to the people who accompanied you in the search.
The first thing you did upon returning to the mall was to find Shiraki Meiko and ask her about the mall's situation.
[Meiko Shiraki tells you that everything is normal and no one is near the mall!]
[You were also surprised by this, probably because you knew Joel was in the mall, which is why you didn't dare to act boldly.]
After learning about this situation, you decided to help those people.
[Day 3 of the simulation.]
Today, some people came back to the mall to help, and you will also lead a team to search for supplies.
[This supply retrieval was quite successful because sometimes you can leave supplies out of other people's sight and then wait for them to come and collect them.]
After searching for supplies and returning to the mall, the first thing you do is find Shiraki Meiko and ask her if anything happened.
[Meiko Shiraki took you to the monitoring room and showed you a surveillance video. In the video, a middle-aged woman was acting suspiciously, looking around the mall.]
That middle-aged woman was none other than the woman you accused.
[Moreover, it wasn't just her; several men were also loitering around the mall, secretly glancing at it and behaving strangely.]
[Furthermore, they placed something resembling a package in an inconspicuous corner of the mall.]
[Have Shiraki Meiko keep an eye on that middle-aged woman and remain vigilant at all times.]
[Simulation ends. 】
[Simulated rating: B. (Hmph! Not bad, right?)]
[Reward received: A quantity of supplies.]
[Number of simulations remaining: 2.]
"Huh? That's it? That's it?!" Seeing that the simulator had ended, Jingu Yi asked helplessly.
The simulation felt abruptly cut short because the middle-aged man with bandages hadn't made a move, which was really frustrating!
He wanted to see himself kill the middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck!
Wait a minute?! What if I just killed that middle-aged man with the bandages?!
At this moment, Shen Gongyi suddenly had a brilliant idea.
"Continue the simulation!" Jingu Yi said to the simulator.
【Simulation begins! 】
[You successfully tricked Sakurajima Yanagi into cooling you down.]
After cooling down, you returned to the rest room to relax for a while. Unfortunately, Shizuka Marikawa wouldn't let you rest. She smelled another woman's scent on you and felt threatened, so she pulled you aside to have an in-depth discussion about biology.
[You gave Shizuka Marikawa a good beating, but because you hit her too hard, you lost a lot of your energy and spirit.]
When you wake up again, you've once again invisibly arrived at Yuriko Takashiro's camp.
Just like last time, you overheard people talking about the mall shortly after arriving at the camp. It was the middle-aged woman you had scolded and the middle-aged man with bandages.
This time, you stand aside and quietly wait for them to finish their discussion.
[When the two of them finished their conversation and returned to the camp, you followed behind the middle-aged man with bandages. Taking advantage of his momentary lapse in attention, you tripped him with your foot. After he fell, you pulled out a long spear and plunged it directly into her heart.]
After doing all this, you returned to the mall.
[Day 2 of simulation.]
[Early this morning, Yuriko Takagi rushed to find you and told you that the middle-aged man with bandages had died.]
You will be quite surprised by this.
[At the same time, they asked Yuriko Takashiro if she had any evidence.]
[Takagi Yuriko tells you that the middle-aged man with bandages was stabbed with a spear.]
After saying this, Yuriko Takagi demanded to inspect the weapons of everyone in your mall, because she knew that some people in your mall were using rifles.
[So you didn't even try to hide it, directly taking out your weapons, even the long spear that the middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck had.]
You're gambling that Yuriko Takagi won't betray you.
[As expected, when Yuriko Takagi saw your homemade spear, she immediately realized it was you who was behind it all, and that you were the one who killed that bandaged middle-aged man. Her gaze towards you began to turn strange.]
She finds you somewhat unpredictable, and the way she looks at you carries a hint of fear, most likely because she's been affected by your actions towards others.
Fortunately, Yuriko Takashiro didn't betray you.
You're still pleased about this, aren't you?
On the third day of the simulation, Yuriko Takashiro found you early in the morning and told you that she and her group were preparing to leave.
[Because her underlings sensed panic and felt unsafe staying there, before the attack, she wanted to ask you for some supplies. Since the middle-aged man with bandages was killed by you, out of a sense of guilt, you gave Yuriko Takagi and the others a considerable amount of supplies.]
Those supplies, if used sparingly, could last for several months!
You were also saddened by Yuriko Takashiro's departure, but you firmly believed that you would meet again someday, before the future dawned.
[Simulation ends. 】
[Number of simulation attempts remaining today: 1.]
[Simulation Reward: A certain amount of supplies]
[Simulated rating: D. (Pfft~ You're asking for trouble by taking away someone who could have been a comrade, you little fry!)]
Hehe, after hearing the simulated evaluation, Jingu Yi also managed a wry smile.
The reason is simple: in this simulated attempt, he killed the middle-aged man who was wrapped in bandages.
The person is dead! But it has caused panic among Yuriko Takashiro's side.
After all, today it's a middle-aged man with bandages, tomorrow it will be someone else if possible.
It seems that this method of dealing with the middle-aged man with bandages won't work!
"Hmm?! Should we try to create an accident?!" Jingu I thought to himself.
"System, I want to continue the simulation!" Shen Gongyi said to the simulator.
[Ding~ Simulation started]
You successfully tricked Sakurajima Yanagi into helping you cool down.
After cooling down, you returned to the rest room to rest, but Shizuka Marikawa smelled the feminine scent on you and felt a sense of crisis.
[So, she began to have in-depth discussions with you about biology.]
[You didn't tolerate Shizuka Marikawa's initiative; you directly and harshly rejected her.]
However, because you chiseled too hard, you exhausted a lot of your energy and spirit. Although you have a special physique, you still need to rest.
I slept until dinnertime.
After dinner, you arrived at Yuriko Takashiro's campsite.
Upon arriving here, you again encounter the middle-aged man with bandages discussing shopping mall matters with a middle-aged woman.
After they finished talking, you followed the middle-aged man with bandages. Just as he was about to enter the tent, you stuck out your foot and tripped him.
As he tripped, by sheer coincidence, he bumped into a large rock.
[That's how he died.]
After doing all this, you quietly slipped away.
You think you've done something flawless this time.
[Day 2 of simulation.]
[Early in the morning, Yuriko Takashiro found you and told you about the middle-aged man with bandages who had passed away.]
You were surprised by this, and you even bluntly praised him.
Seeing your attitude, Yuri Takashiro didn't say much; she simply asked others about your whereabouts yesterday.
After asking the questions, Yuriko Takashiro left the mall with a serious expression.
[The next morning, Yuriko Takashiro came to find you and asked for some supplies before leaving.]
Huh?! What's going on?!
