In the World of Crawling Dead The Record of War of a Certain High School
Chapter 74 - Opening of the Christmas Party
“Well then, attention, everyone!!!”
Hearing the loud voice, the members gathered in the conference room stopped their chats and looked at Hazuki standing on the podium.
“Um, despite these circumstances, thanks to everyone’s cooperation this time, we were able to open…”
“Sister Hazuki is so formal!”
Yui butted in.
“A-am I? Then, as always. Everyone, let’s enjoy ourselves!!!”
Starting with that, each of them reached out for the food.
The party was lined with perfect snacks with various ingredients put on crackers, and everyone ate them with smiles on their faces.
–Everyone except for Shinji.
“...Is it really alright?”
Yuuki who stood next to Tooru asked him.
“It’s fine. We have to do it when we can.”
“Hmm…”
“Now, Senior Sayoshi should go to your circle of friends. Okay? Please go.”
“O-okay. What about you, Saejima?”
“I will be on the lookout. I don’t know if something’s going to happen after all…”
Tooru left the conference room silently, but no one had noticed it except for Yuuki.
Everyone was enjoying the party that much.
“Delicious! Rei, this ingredient is amazing!!”
Ryou hit fervently in Rei’s direction.
“Ouch!! But delicious!”
“Rigth? Hey, Senior Shimizu too!”
Ryou brought a cracker to Sakura.
“Huh!? Aah!”
However, Miu, surprised because she was suddenly presented it, dropped the glass.
The glass fell to the floor and shattered.
“Oh, I-I’m sorry!”
“Something to wipe... Did anyone get injured?”
“N-no one…”
Ryou looked around and saw a cut in Sakura’s leg and blood flowing from it.
He hurried and took the napkin that was on the table and gave it to Sakura.
“Oh, Yamashita’s leg is injured! Oh no, I’m really sorry! Take this to stop the bleeding…”
“I’m not injured though…”
“Huh? That can’t be…”
Ryou looked at Sakura’s leg again and certainly, the wound and disappeared.
“A misjudgement? Well, I’m glad no one was hurt. I’m sorry for causing trouble!”
“Accidents are an essential part of partys! Come one, let’s have fun!”
Everyone’s smile returned to their faces at Hazuki’s words.
However, Sakura’s smile was somehow stiff.
(This is the worst…)
Sakkura though at the bottom of her heart.
She was seen.
By Ryou, the moment the wound was regenrating.
Even though her regeneration ability was lower than that of the monsters’, small wounds would still be quickly healed.
To be seen in that moment…
The eye witness was only Ryou.
The other people probably only thought of it as an illusion.
But although Ryou seemed convinced it was his mistake now, he’d surely be suspicious of it later.
She might even be suspected.
She should crush the eyes that threaten to expose her identity sooner than later.
Although she had thought to wait until after to kill someone, she now had an opponent she had to deal with immediately.
If she made a move, she was more likely to be exposed, but it was a necessary act for the future rebellion.
The question was how to dispose of him…
To be honest, she was at the limit of constantly controlling Shinji.
It was practically impossible to keep an eye on two people at the same time.
Besides, Ryou moved together with Rei and Yui.
Shinji hadn’t been exposed because he never involved himself in anything, but if it was Ryou, the faults would definitely be exposed.
Which meant that she had no choice but to kill him.
The question was the disposal.
How would she deal with the corpse after calling him someplace and killing him?
If she left it there, they’ll most definitely know the culprit was among them.
This place was surrounded by a wall and there was no one else here.
If she used the excuse of a new kind of enemy, it would be unnatural since no other people were killed.
This meant that it would be the deed of someone inside.
She didn’t want to be suspected in the slightest.
Running away?
That’s right, if it’s running away, wouldn’t that be good?
–No, that’s impossible after all.
That fatty couldn’t climb the wall.
Meaning, accidental death?
…Death from a fall.
She would drop Ryou from the rooftop on his duty of the rooftop lookout and kill him.
The other members would think that he accidentally fell.
Human beings would not doubt their companions without evidence.
Ryou’s turn was in two days.
She would carry the plan out then…
