The two maintain a relatively safe distance.
"My name is Kanoya, as you already knew. Well, what do you want to say to me?"
Because the two of them didn't know each other and the other person was an elder, Xiaolu used honorifics obediently and habitually.
"Where did you come here from?" Sugiura Kumiko asked, and added about her own situation, "I come from Yukimo, Tsuyama City, Okayama Prefecture. When the earthquake happened in Tsuyama, a huge crack opened in my house.
I fell into the crack, and when I woke up again, I came here."
There was indeed an earthquake in Tsuyama, Okayama Prefecture, about a week before the Tokyo earthquake that hit Kanoya.
The magnitude of the Jinshan earthquake was not large. There were no casualties after the earthquake, but a very small number of people were missing.
Kanoya only has a vague impression of the situation in Okayama Prefecture, and he definitely cannot remember the details.
However, I heard that Sugiura Kumiko’s experience was similar to her own, so she probably wasn’t lying.
"I'm from Tokyo and my experience is the same as yours."
"Shikanoya, that..." the woman's tone suddenly became urgent, and she unconsciously grabbed the skirt of her clothes with her hands, "Have you ever seen a little girl since you came to Matsuzawa? Wearing a skirt and braids.
Yes. She is my daughter, her name is Hina. I saw her fall into the crack with me, but I didn’t see her after Matsuzawa woke up."
"Sorry, I didn't see it."
"That's it." Sugiura's frustration was evident in his words, and he didn't seem to be pretending, "I'm sorry, I'm a little too excited."
The deer didn't reply.
After a while, Ms. Sugiura adjusted her mood: "Kanoya, although it's very presumptuous, but can I ask you a favor?"
"Please me what?"
"If you go out from the village and see my daughter, can you please take care of her?"
"Why do you say that? Besides, my knee is injured and I can't get out at all." Kanoya shook his head.
"I'm sorry. I also know this is ridiculous...Actually, I said this to every normal person who comes to the village. They are a little neurotic, right?" Sugiura smiled sadly, "But no one left the village at all.
After that, everyone became Matsuzawa people."
Originally, Xiaolu thought it was strange that Ms. Sugiura suddenly made an inexplicable request.
But if she said this to every normal person she met, it would be somewhat understandable.
After thinking about it for a while, from Kumiko Sugiura's perspective, if a mother and her daughter were separated in such a weird and terrifying place, anyone would go crazy, right?
Ms. Sugiura may be considered relatively calm now.
When you see someone who is still normal, you should ask if they have seen your daughter, and ask them to help take care of her if they see her.
Although that request may not have much effect, it is better than not doing it at all.
Moreover, from what Ms. Sugiura said, it seemed that she had been staying in Matsuzawa Village for some time.
Kanoya felt that he could get some useful information from her, so he asked: "Become a Matsuzawa person?"
"Yes. As long as you eat the food here, you will become a Matsuzawa person. He will have no other expression except a silly smile. At night, he will transform into a terrifying and disgusting monster."
Ms. Sugiura's expression showed obvious fear.
When Xiaolu heard what she said, he suddenly had many questions in his heart.
"Food? Aunt Sugiura, are you talking about those black pieces of meat in the cafeteria? Would anyone really eat that kind of thing?"
"If there is normal food, no one would want to eat it. But if you are trapped here for a long time and don't eat anything, you will die... When you are hungry, someone will try to cook it
Eat those pieces of meat, or just drink the broth. But the result is the same. Those people you saw just now, they are no different from the original Songze people, eating raw meat in the cafeteria."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What are those pieces of meat?"
"I don't know either."
"But, Aunt Sugiura, why...?" Xiaolu looked suspicious.
Since everyone else has been assimilated by Matsuzawa, why is Sugiura Kumiko a special case?
"I brought compressed biscuits and cans. When the earthquake happened, my house collapsed. I couldn't run out with Yangcai, so I had to hide in the toilet, where there was an emergency evacuation kit. Only then did cracks appear on the ground."
After all, Japan is a country prone to earthquakes. Families with good disaster prevention awareness will indeed prepare emergency evacuation kits at home.
As Sugiura Kumiko said this, her eyes suddenly became a little uncertain: "It's just that the emergency food has been eaten now."
This aunt doesn't seem to be good at lying.
Maybe she still has food left.
Afterwards, Ms. Sugiura's expression became bleak again: "I don't want to become a Matsuzawa person or a disgusting monster. When I get too hungry and can't stand it anymore, I will choose to commit suicide."
"Hmm... Aunt Sugiura. You just said you can't eat the meat here, but what about the water? Will it be assimilated if you drink the water here?"
"You can't drink water." Sugiura shook his head very normally, as if he was telling the hard facts that he had practiced, "So, if you happen to bring food, you must plan the amount you take every day, and never eat more.
Eat. Then...then I don’t know, just live on as long as possible."
Kanoya wrote down what Sugiura Kumiko said, and then asked the second question that she was very concerned about. She must master as much information as possible:
