Chereads / HOTD: Surviving Uzumaki Style / Chapter 17 - Chapter 017

Chapter 17 - Chapter 017

"Is it like the flu?" Takashi asked making Saya explain about a similar experience that happened in 1918 and the Black Death.

"How did they stop the disease?" Rei asked hopefully, who was crushed by the gloomy gaze of the academy nurse.

"There were many theories... a lot of people died, but it ended suddenly. People seemed to have developed immunity, although I doubt we can develop an immunity from this, and even if we did, we would be eaten until there was nothing left."

"So there's no way to stop it from spreading," Saeko muttered thoughtfully.

"Maybe we just have to wait," an idea came to the nurse's mind, one that made her smile hopefully, "It's spring and the hot days to come will make the putrefaction process go faster, the muscles will begin to rot and they will fall off their bones, and they will not be able to move if there are skeletons.

Saeko looked at the blonde nurse. "And how long would that take?"

"Weeks if the heat is intense, and if it's winter months," he thought out loud, although his smile quickly disappeared, "However, science already ruled out zombies as something impossible, and yet here they are, I doubt Let them follow the laws of nature now."

"I guess we have no choice but to move, we can't just wait for the dead to die" Takashi said with resignation.

*Snarl*

"A zombie?" Shizuka almost jumped out of her chair when she heard a growl.

"I'm sorry," embarrassed Kyoko made everyone calm down, "It was my stomach, I haven't eaten anything since yesterday at noon" she admitted cursing having started her diet yesterday.

Almost everyone felt their stomachs growl at the flash of food.

"There is nothing here?" Everyone started searching in response to Reí's question, everyone ended up disappointed when they found nothing.

Before he could complain, they heard the sound of duct tape being used, everyone turned to watch a carefree Naruto use thin, flexible books to stick to his forearms and legs, making sure to cover his limbs as best he could.

"What are you doing?" Shizuka asked fearfully, guessing the idea the boy had.

"Well, getting ready to look for some food, if we're going to leave here, I doubt we'll make a stop at a supermarket, there must be a lot more infected people on the streets than here," he explained calmly while taking the metal curtain rod.

It would do.

"You're not going out!" Kyoko shouted, scandalized at the idea of the boy going out, "We're still at school which meant that I'm still your teacher and I forbid you to go out!"

"I'm sorry sensei, but if I didn't pay attention to you when society was still standing, even less now that it fell apart"

"Don't be stupid Uzumaki, this isn't the time to want to be a hero" was Saya's cutting comment who, like the others, the last thing they wanted on their conscience was to know that they let a boy younger than them go out to certain death. .

"How you always underestimate me Saya-chan"

"Don't call me that brat!"

"Wow, what a character," smiling with amusement, he began to walk around the room, ignoring the other teenagers who were trying to order him to stay.

Across the room, Yuuki approached Seako and gave her a serious look, "Aren't you going to stop it?"

"Because?" Busujima's smile was calm, she didn't have to worry about his apprentice, the boy was intelligent, in his way of course.

"Bingo!" Finding what he was looking for, Naruto pushed a table, which gave him the reach to push some boxes onto a shelf that revealed the ventilation ducts, "Does anyone have a screwdriver?"

"…"

"I have this" Yuuki took out his nail filing from his pockets.

"Perfect! Thank you Yuuki-chan!" The boy quickly took the metal file and used it as a screwdriver to loosen the screws on the fence and remove it.

"Are you going to go there?" Takashi asked confused.

"Only I fit here, you're very tall, the boy with glasses would get stuck and the girls... well, I don't have to say it," he joked, emphasizing the girls' measurements, who would have problems getting in, "Plus I'm flexible and "It's not the first time I've done this."

"I don't think it's a good idea," said the group nurse who didn't want the boy to put himself at risk.

"Don't worry Onee-chan, I'm not going to fight, it will be a distraction, I'm going to go as far as I can in the air ducts, I'll make noise so that the infected in the hallway leave and I'll come back here so that Senpai and I can go." for supplies"

"That...sounds reasonable," Saya murmured, frowning thoughtfully, "Why just you and Busujima?"

"The skinny and fat boy have to make sure that no one but us trains, plus senpai and I are a great team, we will be fine"

"He's right," supporting her apprentice, Seako stood up to help push him into the duct, "I wish you luck."

"I don't need it! But thanks"

The rest of the teenagers and teachers felt insecure listening to the boy slide through the vents, and hum a melody, to start singing out loud.
