"You mean?" Yuuki asked.

"If the rescue operation is carried out at Mochizuki General Hospital, chances are all the police will head there immediately. So, we have to find out where all the police really have gone. Is it straight to Mochizuki General Hospital or to Shintoko 3rd Elementary School that is closer from here." Saeko explained.

Hearing Saeko's words, Rei looked a little worried.

"Rei, do you know your father's office?" Saeko asked.

Rei nodded his head in response.

"Good. Your dad probably left a note in his office. Or maybe the chief of police's office. We better keep checking their office." Saeko explained.

After hearing the explanation from Saeko, they immediately rushed to Rei's father's offer. And like any other room, it was empty.

Everyone immediately searched the room to find out where all the police had gone.

While all the confusion looking for information. Shizuka carelessly bumped into the whiteboard.

"Auch..."

"Shizu-nee, what are you doing?" Saeko looked at Shizuka with a strange face.

But, having said that. Saeko was so shocked by what she found.

"Rei, you better read what's on the whiteboard." Saeko said.

Hearing her name being called, Rei immediately turned her head and saw what was written.

Rei was surprised after seeing the whiteboard.

"All survivors, go to Shintoko 3rd Elementary School." That's what it says.

But Rei was surprised by something else.

"Dad... That's my dad's handwriting." Rei shouted.

Rei then immediately hugged Yuuki who happened to be beside him.

All look happy and smile.

"Ehem..." Saeko tried to make everyone focus on her.

"Now that we know what we need to know. We'd better get out of here." Saeko was silent for a moment.

"We have two things we need to do now. First we go to Rei's house to find out if Rei's mother is safe. After that, we follow our original plan. Go to Shintoko 3rd Elementary School and then head to Megurigaoka Private High School and continue on to Saint Isidore University."

Everyone looks calm.

"Now let's meet up with Merasato-san and the others."

After that, Saeko and the others rushed out of the police station. They didn't forget to take all the weapons they had collected.

"Saeko-senpai, are you guys already finish?" Kouta asked.

"Yes. We just need to go to Rei's house to find out about her mother's condition. After that we return to the original plan." Saeko explained.

"Well, it just so happens that we have a big truck at our disposal. Actually there are several that can ne use. But since only I can drive it, we can only take one with us." Miamura explained.

"It's okay, and we have to hurry. The weather is getting worse." Saeko said while looking at the dark cloud.

They then got ready to leave the police station in a truck and headed for Rei's house.

Initially, their journey had no obstacles at all. However, everything changed when they approached Rei's home environment. They had to stop and continue their journey on foot because the road to Rei's house was blocked by piles of furniture.

"With this we are forced to walk." Yuuki said.

"Merasato-san, Kouta, Asami, Yuuki. You guys stay here protecting the truck. The rest will go to Rei's house." Saeko said dividing the tasks.

Without much ado, they immediately got out of the truck and walked towards Rei's house.

Takashi and Rei looked excited and wanted to hurry up. But, both of them were stopped by Saeko.

"I think I should take the lead now." Saeko said.

"But we're close to our home. You don't know this area as well as we do." Takashi denied.

"That's exactly why. What we encounter later may be your neighbor. So..."

"Are you saying that we will not be able to do it!" Takashi looks very angry.

"Takashi, friends and family are different things."

Takashi and Rei were silent and looked a little depressed.

"What would you do then?" Saeko asked.

Takashi and Rei lowered their heads. Not long, Takashi said.

"Senpai, may be, you were right. Nether Rei and I can..." Takashi didn't continue his words and could only clench his fists.

"That's okay, it's better than you force yourself to do something you don't want to do."

After that conversation, their journey was unhindered at all. Finally they heard a woman's scream.

"You bastards!!!"

"That voice. It's my mom." Rei said.

Hearing Rei's words, everyone immediately rushed to the source of the sound.

"No. We won't let you!"

This time a male voice was heard.

"You made me go out to get what you all need. And now you refuse to take me back in!" Rei's mother's voice sounded again.

After getting close to the source of the sound. They saw someone standing facing a pile of furniture. That person had hair like Rei only shorter.

"I'm glad she seems to be okay at least." Said Takashi.

"Is she Rei's mother?" Saeko ask.

"I don't care! Get out of here!" Shouted a voice from behind a pile of furniture.

Not long after the scream. A rifle was seen aiming at Rei's mother.

"Or I swear to you, I will shoot!" Add sound from behind piles of furniture.

"You freaking bastards!"

Rei is happy after seeing his mother is fine. He then immediately ran to hug his mother.

"Mom!"

Rei's mother immediately turned her head after receiving a hug from Rei.

"Rei! And Takashi too." Rei's mother said.

Saeko and Shizuka immediately walked over and lowered their heads to greet Rei's mother.

"Hello."

"Oh my, how polite of you."

"Mom, you know that yelling will attract them right?"

"I was so mad, I couldn't help it. We got along well at first. But everything broke after we lost electricity. And earlier, they let some weird person in. And now it seems they are united to get me out. Neighbors my ass." Rei's mother replied with a little anger.

"Good then." Saeko said.

"Good? What do you mean?" Rei's mother was confused.

"Just come with us. We plan to go to Mochizuki General Hospital since the SDF will be evacuating there." Saeko answered.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, we got this information from the J-Alert at the police station." Saya trying to convince.

Rei's mother then turned towards the pile of furniture and shouted.

"You all hear that right! If you want to go with us, just get out!"

"You're lying! I don't trust you!"

"We don't have much time. If they don't want to come, we better leave them alone." Saeko said.

Everyone was silent and a little surprised. But it didn't take long for everyone to just sigh. Because what Saeko said wasn't wrong at all.

"Well then, shall we go?" Saeko asked.

Everyone nodded. And they rushed back to the truck and headed straight for Shintoko 3rd Elementary School.

*

Arriving at Shintoko 3rd Elementary School, they saw that Souichiro's group had already arrived there and everyone was ready to leave at any time.

"Don Takagi, is everyone ready?" Saeko asked when she met Souichiro.

"We are all ready. We just need to wait for Yoru." Souichiro answered.

"If you're ready, we'll leave in an hour. As for Yoru, he'll catch up to Megurigaoka Private High School tomorrow. If not, maybe we can meet at Saint Isidore University." Saeko answered firmly.

"Okay. You guys better get some rest first. Let me and Miamura take care of everything." Souichiro said.

Saeko and the others did as Souichiro said and went to rest.

*

Saeko who was resting with the others had a serious look looking down like she was thinking.

From the eyes of Takashi and the others, Saeko looked to be thinking seriously and a bit of anxiety was showing on her face. It was all because they couldn't see what Saeko was seeing.

"Senpai, what are you thinking about?" asked Takashi.

Saeko who heard Takashi's voice immediately shook her head and said. "It's fine, just a little thinking about what we're going to do next."

Takashi and the others were speechless, they could only nod their heads. Because they thought that Saeko was thinking about Yoru, who until now had not made it to Shintoko 3rd Elementary School.

But, different from the others. Shizuka who could also see the same thing as Saeko, she was seen smiling.

"Sae-chan, what happened?" Shizuka asked with a smile on her face.

Saeko then showed Shizuka the inventory and saw nothing.

"Take it easy. "No news is good news." Said Shizuka tried to calm Saeko down.

Saeko then nodded her head and lay down.

"We better get some rest. Eat, drink, or maybe take a short nap like Saeko-senpai. So we don't get tired later." Said Saya.

Everyone agreed to my suggestion and started doing what they wanted.

*

One hour has passed. And Yoru still can't be seen approaching Shintoko 3rd Elementary School.

"We better get going. Yoru isn't that weak." Saeko said.

"Are you sure?" asked Souichiro.

"Yeah, we don't have to wait." Saeko answered calmly

Yuriko looked a little worried, but Souichiro patted her on the shoulder telling Yuriko not to think about it too much.

"All right then. Let's go now! Everyone get into your vehicles!"

With that, everyone got into the vehicles that had been prepared and headed for Megurigaoka Private High School.
