Fujimi School, playground.
Nearly a hundred survivors gathered here, and it seemed quite lively.
"The reason for this disaster is that the world is sinful, so God sent down punishment."
"But God had mercy on us sinners, and just used his magic to destroy the monster and save us."
"Now the whole school is safe, this is the gift of God. So we must sincerely atone our sins to thank God."
"Next, we will use the safe school as a base and continue to grow, and this requires a leader."
"As a teacher, I can only lead by example and lead everyone to survive."
"..."
On the podium surrounded by people, a well-dressed gentleman with glasses in a suit was giving a speech.
His name is Shido Koichi. He is hypocritical, good at rhetoric and incitement, and is the villain in the original book.
Now, he is using the miracle of the sudden disappearance of the dead body to brainwash everyone and seek benefits from it.
Under the podium, many survivors seemed quite fanatical and agreed after listening to Shido Koichi's speech.
In neon where cults are everywhere, ordinary people can easily be coerced into believing.
Moreover, they had witnessed a true miracle before, so they naturally believed in the gods.
However, although everyone expressed gratitude and faith in the unknown gods, not everyone agreed with what Shido Koichi said.
For example, Komuro Takashi, Hirano Toda, Miyamoto Rei, Takagi Saya and others in the crowd.
Some of them had grudges against Shido Koichi, and some wanted to leave school to find their families.
But overall, more than half of the people agreed that Shido Koichi should be the leader.
"This..."
When Saeko Busujima brought Shizuka Marikawa and Kazu Ishii to the playground, she was stunned when she saw this scene.
Although she knew that Shido Koichi was good at brainwashing after reading the original work, she didn't expect that such an effect would be achieved in such a short time.
Not only Saeko Busujima, but even the group members who were watching the live broadcast were shocked.
The girl who can see: "Isn't this scum, Shido Koichi, too shameless?"
Xia Shizi: "So embarrassing... He actually made up so many things, and in front of the True Lord, it's amazing that he can think of it."
Butterfly House Pharmacist: "Those ordinary people don't know the truth, and they all agree with Shido Koichi's words. I wonder what the True Lord thinks?"
Tai Su True Lord: "I think it's quite interesting, but let Saeko handle everything herself, after all, this is Saeko's world."
Staff Office.
"Is this how Zhongli feels when he sees mortals talking about him? It's quite interesting."
Li Yan stood in front of the window with a mysterious smile on his face, holding a jade-carved wine gourd in his hand, drinking and looking at the playground.
...
"What a mob..."
Busujima Saeko looked at Shido Koichi and the enthusiastic audience who were speaking on the podium, slowly came back to her senses, and sighed in her heart.
"Forget it, since they have their own ideas, let them fend for themselves."
After thinking for a moment in her mind, she made a decision.
The reason why she planned to build a safe house in the school was not only because it was convenient, but also because she wanted to save more people.
After all, she had her own chat group. As long as she didn't do anything stupid, the dead bodies couldn't hurt her.
But looking at the performance of the group of people in front of her, and thinking of the performance of everyone in the original book, she gave up her previous naive idea.
Each of these people has different demands, some pursue power, some pursue family, and some pursue stability.
She didn't want to be a savior, and she didn't have the energy and ability to solve the problems of so many people.
"Teacher Shizuka, Ishii, let's go."
After making the decision, she said hello to Marikawa Shizuka and Ishii Kazu beside her and prepared to leave.
"Sorry, Busujima-senpai, I choose to stay in school."
But Ishii and He shook their heads and said to Busujima Saeko: "I am a burden now and will drag down the senior."
"Besides, the school is very safe, and there are so many classmates. I can rest assured and then find a chance to find my family."
He thought about it on the way. He was a sick and injured person, and it was not a good choice to leave with Busujima Saeko.
It is better to find a safe place to settle down first and make plans later.
"Okay, Ishii, I respect your choice and wish you good luck in martial arts."
Seeing this, Busujima Saeko did not force it. She liked to respect other people's choices, so she planned to leave with Marikawa Shizuka.
"Bukujima-san, Marikawa-sensei, please wait a moment."
Just as the two were about to leave, Shido Koichi spoke on the podium.
He had already noticed the arrival of Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka. After all, they were important combat forces and scarce doctors.
As he spoke, everyone turned their attention to Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka.
"What else, Teacher Shido?"
Busujima Saeko stopped and looked at Shido Koichi calmly.
"It is a personal freedom to choose, but Busujima is so powerful, don't you want to join our great cause?"
"Moreover, given the current situation, losing a doctor will be a heavy blow."
"Do Busujima and Marikawa really want to leave so many students who need help?"
Shido Koichi walked up to Busujima Saeko and Marikawa Shizuka with a hypocritical smile on his face.
Hearing his words, the eyes of many students who were brainwashed by him changed instantly.
Indeed, it is the end of the world now, and we cannot lose important combat forces and doctors.
They also came over, and surrounded Saeko Busujima, Shizuka Marikawa and others in the center.
"Shido is really a scumbag!"
Rei Miyamoto looked at Koichi Shido who was morally blackmailing her, her eyes full of disgust.
Takashi Komuro beside her nodded and agreed: "Teacher Shido's behavior is indeed excessive."
"Isn't this behavior wrong?"
Some people who were not brainwashed, such as Hirano Toda and Takagi Saya, were also dissatisfied with Koichi Shido's behavior.
It's just that the brainwashed people accounted for the majority, so they didn't dare to say much.
...
Shiko Kasumi: "You actually morally blackmailed Saeko?! What a disgusting guy, I really hope Saeko will teach him a lesson."
The girl who can see, Butterfly House Pharmacist: "+1."
...
"Eh..."
Shizuka Marikawa was a little scared by the eyes of the crowd, and couldn't help hiding behind Saeko Busujima.
Clang.
A crisp sound rang out, and Saeko Busujima drew her sword instantly.
The knife light cut through his suit from bottom to top at a speed that Shido Koichi couldn't react to, and then it was placed on his neck, even cutting off a few strands of his hair.
In just a moment, he, who was well-dressed, turned into a mess.
"Teacher Shido, do you think my knife is not sharp enough?"
Saeko Busujima had a smile on her face, but her eyes were very cold, with a hint of murderous intent.
Seeing her suddenly draw her knife, the people around couldn't help but step back and exclaimed.
They didn't forget the situation where Saeko Busujima killed corpses like cutting melons and vegetables.
"Bukushima classmate... what are you doing? This is very dangerous, you put the knife away first."
Feeling the cold touch on his neck, Shido Koichi, who looked quite embarrassed, swallowed his saliva, laughed dryly, and his momentum instantly became low.
This is a knife that has killed a large number of corpses. If it accidentally cuts his skin, who knows if he will also become a corpse.
His career has just started, and he doesn't want to become a monster like a corpse.
"Teacher Shido, you are right about one thing."
Saiko Busujima stared at Koichi Shido and sneered, saying: "It is a personal freedom to choose. We should listen to the person's opinion."
"Teacher Shizuka, are you going with me or staying here?"
"Huh? Me?"
Shizuka Marikawa was stunned when she heard this, but quickly responded: "Of course I will go with you."
Although she was a little naive, she could also feel the eyes of everyone.
And she didn't like Koichi Shido, so she naturally chose to follow Saeko Busujima.
"Did you hear that?"
After getting the answer, Saeko Busujima put away her samurai sword, glanced at the people around her, and said coldly: "Get out of the way!"
The people who were swept by her cold eyes couldn't help but tremble, and quickly made way, and watched the two people leave with complicated eyes.
