231. Safe House

Feeling that the atmosphere was getting heavy, Remi changed the subject: "Don't you think Ampere is not like us?"

"What do we mean."

Remy stared at the outline of the safe house that blended into the rock wall: "My brother and I don't long for humanity because we appear in the story. Sister Adangfuya is still very weak, and the children regard us as family members. Ampei is an alien weirdo, but

It just stays peacefully on Wanghai Cliff, neither coveting you nor harming others, unlike its terrifying appearance."

Wanghai Cliff is a name that was born together with the safe house. They can't always call it "cliff top". The home should have a name.

"Is it because of Anna?"

"Obviously not. If Anna wasn't there, we wouldn't be able to hurt it except for my banshee howl."

The only one who can threaten it is Anna. Without Anna, it has no reason to suppress its nature.

"Maybe it is like a livestock like cattle and sheep, which has been tamed by us." Remi expressed her speculation.

This is really very similar to the process of people domesticating wild animals in the past: showing great power in the King of Allen - feeding food - companionship day and night - a more comfortable environment and food than before.

Remy continued: "I don't know if this is a coincidence or what, but don't you find it weird that a weirdo behaves like an animal?"

"Do you think it was domesticated by some being?"

It takes several or even ten generations to domesticate wild animals. Ampere is very docile and has not shown any wildness until now. If we apply it to the theory of domestication, Ampere's population has been domesticated for at least several generations.

But this is a scientific inference, and the weird and strange power is simpler and more difficult to understand.

Remi was stunned. She had not thought of this. "When Anna comes back, I need to collect some blood from Ampere."

She worries that the presence behind Tame Ampere may be discovered at Wanghaiya.

We have to wait for Anna to come back because she is the only one who can suppress Ampere.



Celica Dallaire trusts no one.

Except herself.

Since the night when the disaster struck, this little girl in her twenties has experienced many bad situations - mostly human beings. Because few people can escape when encountering strange things.

Celica Dallaire clearly remembers the experience of these ten days.

The mist burned like fire, the ringing of the church bells was drowned out by the collective cries, the pungent smell of burning was everywhere, and people on the streets ran around in panic.

She is one of them, but she is smarter, or more rational. Instead of running around the streets like a headless fly and making weird-attracting screams, she hides in a stone house that does not burn.

Today, Celica Dallaire often regrets that if she had hid in a grocery store or restaurant, what happened would have happened. But at the time, this was one of the smart choices.

The owners of the house, an old couple, took Celica Dallaire in. Unfortunately, Weirdness rushed in soon after, and she was the only one who hid in the cellar, crawling out quietly after dawn when Weirdness left.

Celica Dallaire walked onto the street and saw a piece of debris. Starving, she encountered some strange survivors while looking for food. They lamented her luck - the weirdness had not left, and she could actually show off.

Walked half a street.

Celica Dallaire deserves to be a member of the surviving team. Their goal is to climb over Sugard Mountain and get to the other side of the mountain.

But before they left Belfast, they were attacked by monsters. Celica Dallaire and other survivors were separated. However, they were lucky enough to meet another survivor.

This group of survivors doesn't plan to leave, at least not yet.

At first, they were as united as a hemp rope. Children, women, and the elderly hid in shelters. Men went out to search for food, but every time they went out, someone might not come back. As time went by, the men began to complain about why.

Children, women and old people who did nothing shared the food.

Celica Dallaire had no choice but to join the team that collected food. She was really lucky. Although she could not bring back food every time, she could always return to the refuge safely.

But gradually, Celica Dallaire found that the men around her were looking at her more and more greedily. She left there before something terrible happened.

Then she met two groups of survivors lingering in the ruins.

The first one actually had weird beliefs and offered all his food to pray for protection.

Celica Dallaire pretended to be a believer, but sneaked out during prayer late one night, and not long after she heard crying and screaming in the house.

The second one pursues cruel cannibalism, and those who lose their value will become food.

Celica Dallaire once saw with her own eyes that a strong man who brought back the most food every time was swarmed by the survivors, covered his mouth and killed. The reason was just that his leg was broken by a door beam while searching for supplies.

After that, Celica Dallaire did not actively look for the group of survivors, or maybe there were no more survivors.

About seven days ago, an uninvited guest broke into the house where she was hiding.

It was a man about her age, with fear written all over his face. Celica Dallaire wanted to wait for him to leave, but in the end, the man seemed to find it safe and moved in.

Celica Dallaire had to leave the basement to let him go, then relented at the man's pleas.

This soft-heartedness made her regret it for the rest of her life.

Danger always makes a man and woman fall in love quickly, despite various problems, such as... there is not enough food.

Celica Dallaire was too frightened to go out. The food Celica Dallaire plundered was not enough for two people. Occasionally, she would bring back many cans and Mike would eat them without restraint, just like he

I want to be a full-fledged ghost.

The situation quickly became dire, and Celica Dallaire went without food for four or five days.

Mike was so hungry that he cursed Celica Dallaire loudly and it was useless, and their relationship became somewhat tense.

When they were resting at night, Mike hugged her face and kissed her. Celica Dallaire thought that her lover wanted to ease the relationship, and then at this moment, a heartbreaking pain came from her lips.

Celica Dallaire pushed Mike away. His mouth was full of blood and he was chewing his lower lip like a devil.

She finally killed Mike and dragged his body to the backyard and buried it during the day.

Celica Dallaire could have eaten Mike, but she didn't want to live so...dirty.

What is the difference between cannibals and weirdos?

Even if she has become a mouse hiding in the dark and damp.

Now, every time she drinks or eats, her leaky gums remind her of the bitter consequences of trust.

[…Sizzling…Himfast…Sizzling…safe…silent…keep quiet…]

A faint broadcast came from the radio.

Celica Dallaire scoffed and turned off the radio.

Who knows that there isn't a trap woven by traitors who betrayed humanity to attract survivors to sacrifice to their bullshit gods.
