These are sharp tools for killing zombies. For example, the long knives they usually use to slice sashimi are simply divine artifacts for killing zombies. They are about one meter long, made of super alloy, and somewhat resemble a miniature katana.
Although Su Luo spoke casually, he knew that escaping this city would definitely take a lot of effort, so he looked at his sister and directly gave her a warning.
In an Apocalypse escape, his sister's physical strength would naturally allow them to survive better. A weakling like himself, cooperating with his sister's Supernatural Ability, should be able to live.
Regarding Su Luo's suggestion, Sora nodded in agreement, deciding to start hunting zombies the next day. Today, they would rest for a while, wait until they were fully adapted to the Apocalypse, and then start looking for a way to escape.
Su Luo did not refuse. He used the remaining time to collect maps of the entire Neon into his backpack, preparing to plan his retreat routes.
If there was a car, Su Luo naturally wouldn't miss it. He had already learned to drive, and even if he wasn't old enough, driving in the Apocalypse didn't seem to be something anyone would comment on.
Perhaps Sora knew that her comfortable life was about to end, so she deliberately followed her pre-Apocalypse habits, watching downloaded videos and eating potato chips to forget the fear in her heart.
Su Luo wasn't surprised by his sister's appearance. Although this world was also a matriarchal one, women still didn't forget frightening things that quickly.
Chapter 5: Jealous Sora, Do I Have a Fiancee? (3200-word chapter)
A day later, his sister, Kasugano Sora, recovered from her state of fear. He wasn't sure if it was because of him, but even though Sora was scared, her eyes were filled with determination.
In the early morning, around eight o'clock, Su Luo hadn't slept well when he felt someone shaking him. Opening his eyes, he saw Sora had changed into jeans, a men's overcoat, and was holding a baseball bat.
It seemed that Sora had gradually recovered from her fear. Her eyes were filled with determination, and she was fully prepared to hunt zombies.
"Good morning, Brother! Let's start dealing with the nearby zombies!"
Sora said seriously, gazing at her brother and demanding.
"Okay, wait a moment, let's get ready to go!"
Su Luo nodded, not refusing his sister's request, and not choosing to eat breakfast. In his opinion, today was not a good time for breakfast.
After a simple wash, Su Luo picked up a short knife used for slicing sashimi and held it tightly in his hand. Not only that, he also had several fruit knives, ready to use with Psychokinesis to eliminate nearby zombies.
After getting ready, Su Luo walked in front, slowly opened the door, and gently poked his head out to look outside.
The entire villa was quiet. Besides the roaring zombies, nothing else appeared.
"Safe. Let's go down slowly!"
Su Luo waved his hand and walked step by step towards the downstairs.
At this moment, Su Luo was very nervous. He slowly followed the corridor to the second floor. Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and the surrounding zombies didn't rush over directly.
After passing the second floor and reaching the first floor, Su Luo found that the main door was tightly shut, and black bloodstains were splattered on the doorway. It was clear that the shop owner had met a tragic end.
"This is the villa tenant. It seems he already..."
Seeing the scene before her, Sora naturally knew what had happened but didn't continue speaking.
Su Luo nodded slightly, then kicked open the door and rushed in. Seeing her brother rush in, Sora didn't dare to lag behind and followed him into the room.
Instantly, a bloody scene met their eyes. After Su Luo entered the room, he was surprised to find a zombie, a shop owner in his forties, gnawing on a somewhat blurred corpse. The strong smell of blood made them feel nauseous.
"Roar!"
Seeing someone rush in, the zombie, which had been feasting, immediately let out a roar and quickly stood up
and lunged at them.
Seeing this, Sora secretly swallowed her saliva, then mustered her courage, raised the baseball bat in her hand, and swung it hard at the lunging zombie.
With a "thud!" the rapidly charging zombie was knocked down by Sora's bat, crashing into several pieces of furniture before finally stopping.
Seeing this, Su Luo secretly praised Sora's great strength, which was many times stronger than his own weakling self.
"Amazing. Now it's my turn."
Seizing the opportunity, Su Luo threw the fruit knife in his hand, using his powerful Psychokinesis to send it flying towards the zombie's legs.
"Pfft!"
Under Su Luo's precise control, the zombie's legs were easily disabled, resolving their immediate crisis.
However, the zombie continued to roar, crawling on the ground and slowly moving towards them, seemingly wanting to tear them to shreds.
Facing the flailing zombie, Sora took a deep breath, raised her baseball bat, and knocked the zombie over again.
"Alright, Sora, let me do it!"
Looking at the fallen zombie, Su Luo pushed his sister aside, stepped forward, stomped on the zombie's chest, and stabbed a knife into its head.
Finally, the shop owner zombie was easily dealt with through their cooperation. After resolving this trouble, Su Luo wiped the blood-stained knife with a towel.
"Phew! It's finally resolved. Let's see if there's anything good in the room!"
Having dealt with the trouble, Sora sighed in relief, closed the door, and said thoughtfully to Su Luo.
"Okay!"
Su Luo's eyes lit up. He was very interested in the owner's stored supplies. After thinking for a moment, he led his sister towards the deepest part of the room.
Since the owner of this dessert shop was preparing to renovate a new shop, all the shop's items had been brought back by him and temporarily stored in two rooms in the villa.
Coincidentally, with the Apocalypse happening during this time, the owner surely had no time to hide or consume these items.
With the intention of finding a bargain, they came to the deepest part of the villa. There were two rooms here, with two locks installed on the doors, indicating that some dessert shop supplies were stored inside.
After thinking about it, Su Luo didn't hesitate at all. He sliced open the lock with a knife, kicked open the door, and walked in.
In an instant, what lay before Su Luo were a dozen bags of high-quality bread flour. Besides that, five or six small buckets contained cheese, white sugar, and pickled cherries, respectively.
The quantity was not small, which made Su Luo very satisfied. His sister, Kasugano Sora, looked at the abundant stock and drooled.
Sora didn't know how long she could eat so many desserts, but she was even happier, thinking that their current life was definitely incomparable to ordinary people's.
"Brother, put all these things away! I want to eat cream cake when I get home today."
Sora pointed at the items before her, a bit impatiently.
"Mm!"
Su Luo didn't speak. He lightly snapped his fingers, and the surrounding items vanished in the blink of an eye.
After collecting the supplies from one room, Su Luo went to another room. Opening the door, he found several tubs of cream in the refrigerator, and even ice cream was available.
Needless to say, Su Luo also conveniently put the items into his Storage Space, leaving nothing behind. Who knew to what extent the Apocalypse would develop, so Su Luo naturally had to be careful and store more supplies.
After collecting the supplies, Su Luo directly closed the door on the first floor. Since the danger in the villa had been completely eliminated, they would definitely not enter this room again.
Having dealt with these troubles, his sister followed Su Luo to the villa's lawn.
It must be said that the environment of their villa complex was truly beautiful. The lush green lawn and garden were also the result of his Adoptive Parents' lifelong hard work.
Stepping on the soft lawn, Kasugano Sora was filled with emotion. Who could have known that in just over a day, the world would fall into the Apocalypse?
Fortunately, her brother, Su Luo, knew that the Apocalypse was about to happen and had already prepared many supplies at home, which made Kasugano Sora breathe a sigh of relief.
Unfortunately, her parents working far away also worried Kasugano Sora greatly. She wondered if they were doing well now.
Perhaps sensing Sora's sadness, Su Luo reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting his sister.
"Don't worry, Sora, I'll always be with you until we find the truth of this world."
Su Luo patted Sora's shoulder, offering her simple comfort.
"Thank you, Brother, it's best to have you here."
Receiving her brother's encouragement, tears welled up in Sora's eyes. She immediately threw herself into Su Luo's arms and began to sob softly.
Outside the villa, it was silent, with a few wandering zombies occasionally roaring at them through the fence.
Soon, after essentially resolving the villa's safety issues, Su Luo and his sister, Kasugano Sora, returned to their room on the third floor.
Upon entering the room, Su Luo and Sora both threw their blood-stained clothes directly into the outdoor trash can before changing shoes and returning to the living room.
"Phew! Killing zombies was really thrilling. It's hard to imagine that we successfully dealt with that zombie."
Recalling the scene just now, Sora was still a little
worried. At the same time, her heart felt warm, and she thought that acting with her brother wasn't a bad thing after all.
"It's alright, Sora!"
Su Luo nodded. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he looked at Kasugano Sora and continued, "Go take a shower quickly. After such a tough battle, you're all smelly."
Su Luo showed a look of disdain, which made his sister, Kasugano Sora, blush slightly. Then, she showed a tsundere expression and looked at him with some displeasure.
"Brother, you're such a big idiot!"
With an Arrogant retort, Sora pushed open the bathroom door and went in to wash herself.
Su Luo's consciousness entered the Storage Space, and he found that only about 1/3 of the space had been used for the accumulated supplies during this period. It seemed there would be greater uses for it in the future.
Listening quietly to the sound of running water in the bathroom, Su Luo also showed a contemplative expression, thinking about how to successfully escape Chiba City.
It is well known that Chiba City is one of the major metropolises, with a population of several million. Escaping would definitely take a lot of effort.
Not to mention, most of the traffic was blocked, so the troubles it could cause were absolutely obvious.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"
While Su Luo was contemplating the future, his phone suddenly vibrated. A strange number appeared on his screen.
With a puzzled mind, Su Luo answered the phone, wanting to see who would be looking for him at this time.
"Hello, who is this?"
Su Luo asked cautiously, wanting to know who was looking for him.
"It's me, your fiancée. Are you doing alright over there?"
After the call connected, a cold voice came through, leaving Su Luo puzzled. He didn't know who was calling him; he didn't seem to have any fiancée in his memories.
"I'm fine. My sister and I are staying at home for now."
Su Luo replied thoughtfully.
"Very good. If you can successfully appear before me, then I will agree to this engagement. Strive to survive!"
After saying that, the call was directly hung up, leaving Su Luo a bit confused, unsure who the person on the other end was.
"Creak!"
Just as Su Luo was feeling puzzled, the bathroom door opened again, and Sora slowly walked out, wrapped in a bath towel.
"Huh, Brother, who called just now? With the current state of network paralysis, besides satellite phones, it seems no other signal can be used to make calls now."
Sora pondered for a moment, then said seriously.
"Uh, I don't know. She only said she was my fiancée."
Su Luo shook his head, looking utterly bewildered.
"Hmph, fiancée? It's that woman!"
"That woman, Yukinoshita Yukino!!!"
Chapter 6: Fiancee, Yukinoshita Yukino! (3000-word chapter)
"Fiancée? Yukinoshita Yukino? Sora, what's going on?"
Hearing his sister's murmur, Su Luo was at a loss. He was certain that there was no mention of an engagement in his memories, which made him a little strange.
According to his memory, Su Luo knew that Yukinoshita Yukino was a second-year student at Ritsugomu High School, and also the legendary school beauty and 'Ice Queen.' Ordinary people couldn't even dream of getting close to her.
At school, Su Luo occasionally encountered Yukinoshita Yukino, but she never spoke to him, only often observed him with strange eyes.
Although this world was gradually becoming matriarchal, there were no shortage of aloof women, like Yukinoshita Yukino. Like an overbearing CEO, she attracted the attention of many boys, but they never had the chance to approach her.
"Well, it seems you don't know, which is good. I'll tell you now!"
Kasugano Sora sat properly on the sofa and began to tell him about the engagement with Yukinoshita Yukino.
It turned out that when Su Luo was ten years old, he was accidentally discovered by Yukinoshita Yukino's mother, who thought the boy was exquisitely handsome and had a very high appearance. So, she secretly contacted his Adoptive Parents and explained her idea of forming a marriage alliance.
Originally, the Adoptive Parents didn't want to agree to the marriage, but they couldn't resist Madam Yukinoshita's "money power." Ultimately, the engagement was established, and Su Luo and Yukinoshita Yukino successfully became engaged.
These matters were only known to his Adoptive Parents and his sister, Kasugano Sora. Su Luo had always been kept in the dark. The plan was originally to get officially engaged at 18, but the Apocalypse happened, leading to the current situation.
After listening to his sister's narration, Su Luo was completely dumbfounded. Although having a cold fiancée sounded good, was it really okay to keep it from him like this?
Seeing Su Luo's shocked expression, Sora's lips curled up slightly, thinking her brother didn't agree to the marriage. So, she leaned on Su Luo's shoulder and seriously stated her thoughts.
"Brother, if you don't agree, I will definitely protect you. I won't
let anyone take you away from me."
Sora's idea was simple: to protect Su Luo during the Apocalypse and slowly cultivate their feelings. Then, the so-called engagement might become meaningless.
