She Hugged Him!

Chapter 74 - She Hugged Him!?

Saeko nodded and then showed a wry smile.

"The entire Fujimi Academy has become hell."

"If we don't leave as soon as possible, I'm afraid those monsters will kill us."

"But now, I don't know if we can leave."

There were eighteen survivors in the faculty room.

The group was huge, but the bigger it was, the harder the chance to leave the Fujimi Academy, which had now become hell.

While fighting those monsters before, she saw part of the academy. 

It was full of those zombies.

"However, this is just a temporary decision made by me and Marikawa-sensei." 

Saeko looked at Mahiro and then at the rest of the crowd.

After all, they were only survivors gathered together, and if opinions differed, conflicts could arise.

Seeing this scene, Rei and Okada both looked at Mahiro.

While the rest looked at Saeko in confusion and finally at Mahiro.

They were waiting for Mahiro's decision.

Even Saya was waiting.

Seeing this scene, Takashi was so upset that he wanted to leave this place.

He doesn't know why!

But the moment he saw Mahiro, he hated him.

Maybe because Mahiro was more handsome than him, maybe because Mahiro was strong, and maybe because Mahiro said he could save Hisashi.

In short, whatever the reason, Takashi hated Mahiro.

Especially now, everyone was centered on Mahiro.

Even Rei and Saya!

'I should have been there, but now I could only be left in a corner.'

***

Mahiro did not speak right away.

He was thinking about his plans.

After all, he wasn't going to leave the school until he took care of that soon-to-be-dead Teacher.

"We should leave the school first and contact our families; if necessary, we can take our families away together to go to a safe place."

"I think everyone wants to do this." 

Seeing the quiet Mahiro, Takashi expressed his ideas. 

He felt that this should be what most people would want.

Since they were lucky to survive this hell, then they would naturally have concerns in their hearts.

And this concern should be the safety of their families.

Hearing Takashi's words, everyone showed thoughtful expression.

Even Rei pondered for a moment.

She gazed at Mahiro, hoping to get his answer.

"Humpf!" 

Mahiro sneered.

"What better opinion do you have?" 

Takashi asked back.

"There's no need to speak your mind here."

Mahiro glanced at Takashi, he wanted to stop this guy from ruining his plans.

After all, there are still survivors in the Fujimi Academy.

If Mahiro leaves this place, then he'll ruin the main quest.

"What do you mean this?"

Takashi was so angry that he asked directly.

"Why can't we not know about our families?!"

Mahiro didn't comment and turned his eyes over to the entire group.

"I... I also want to know how my family is doing." 

A girl raised her hand meekly.

"Mom and Dad, they must be worried about me now."

Another girl spoke up.

"Mahiro..." 

Rei also looked at Mahiro and hesitated.

"Yes?" 

Mahiro responded lightly.

"I also want to call my dad."

Although the rest of the survivors did not speak, they also had the same intention.

Mahiro glanced and saw that among the eleven people he rescued, except for Orada and the other boy.

Takashi's words moved all of them.

With the support of those survivors, Takashi looked at Mahiro provocatively.

"In my case, my parents are not in Japan. Even if they knew, it would be meaningless."

Saeko chuckled and said.

"My parents are also abroad." 

Kohta followed suit.

"I don't! It's the same whether I contact them or not."

"They won't care about my life anyway."

Saya grunted unhappily.

"It looks like you want to know what's happening with your families."

Mahiro nodded, and then...

"But I do not recommend contacting your families now."

"Why!!?" 

Takashi stood up and shouted.

"Which one of you has a mobile phone?"

Mahiro didn't look at Takashi and turned towards the group to see if someone had a mobile phone.

"I do." 

One of the boys raised his hand.

"Give it to her." 

Mahiro pointed at Rei.

The boy stood up, took out his cell phone, and handed it to Rei.

"You should contact your family," Mahiro said.

Rei immediately dialed her father's number.

There were some noises from the other side, and then, after some stuttering, finally the person answered.

"Hello, who are you, and why do you know my number?" 

On the other side, there was an anxious voice mixed with noises.

"Dad, it's me, Rei. How are things over there?"

Rei said anxiously.

"Whoever you are, I don't have time to reply now..."

The noises on the other side became more chaotic.

And then the call disconnected.

"Dad!!" 

Rei shouted anxiously and then called again, but the call was not connecting this time.

Finally, she put down the phone in despair, and her eyes became teary.

Without thinking, she turned towards Mahiro and hugged him.

And then everyone heard the sound of sobbing.

Mahiro: "..."

Saeko: "..."

Takashi: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Mahiro sighed and also tightened his arms around her waist.

Maybe the call has made this girl sad.

Looking at the crying Rei, Mahiro thought of an idea.

Thinking about this.

He turned on the TV in the faculty room.

Mahiro opened a famous news channel.

"Faced with frequent riots breaking out across the country, the government has begun to discuss urgent countermeasures, but it is unclear whether the forces will be dispatched to maintain law and order..."

Now, every station was broadcasting about the zombies.

Mahiro changed to another channel, which showed a female reporter reporting from the field.

"According to some estimates, there have been more than 10,000 victims in Okinawa."

"A state of emergency has been declared."

The female reporter reported to the camera, but the next moment, the picture turned around, and the screams of the female reporter were heard.

Looking at this scene, everyone felt despair.

"I heard Rei call you Takagi?"

"What is your actual name?" 

Mahiro put down the remote and gazed at Saya.

"I'm Saya Takagi. A genius!"

"Well, you say that you're a genius." 

"Since you're a genius, based on the report just now, you should be able to judge the situation." 

Mahiro looked at Saya with interest.
