-Quit joking around
For what purpose was Russia like this until we came here?

-Operation failure?
-Not a breach of perimeter... they didn't follow us

-...It looks like things have been tidied up...
-...Aah

-Just as I thought, this village... is it not strange?
-What is it now? For us, these kinds of abnormal circumstances is what we deal with as part of our job, isn't it?

-That's not what I meant
-I was saying that when we were passing we didn't see any zombies



Page 11

-...Over here too
-Eeh there are no remnants of anything in this village

-What's the meaning of this, there's nothing...
-What in the world happened here?

-Do me a favour and provide support me ok?
It's obvious that the virus has trespassed into this village

-...A girl...?

-A survivor?!!
-Are you ok? What in the world..

-When you shone your light she made a loud voice...
She's scared!
-Ah.. sorry

-I'm sorry, don't cry
-It's ok now



Page 13

-...It's Anna... right
What happened?

-I'm scared... the wolves
2 days ago...

-They suddenly attacked the people in the village
It was total chaos
-After being bitten, the people became strange... then they attacked the everyone else until...

-And then, everyone got together to fight against them

-...why were you over there all alone?

-When they attacked, my mother also became strange
-It was too late to run away, so



Page 14

-My father
Hid me in the closet...
-So from then

-...You poor thing...

-What should we do...?
-What should we do? Should we just lock her up in the closet again?

-Besides, even though she said all the citizens ran away, it doesn't mean it's true
Suppose, there are people still around waiting just like this kid to be rescued...

-Yeah, you're right...
-Just defeating the zombies is not our job



Page 15

-The village silo...?

-The adults would definitely have come here
Papa would have too...
-There's no doubt about it... it is a possibility that they barricaded themselves inside and opposed them



Page 16

-...Let's go
-Stay close, Anna

-Who's there!?
-We're on your side!! If you're here then answer



Page 17

-No response... huh...

-Stay back!

-Huh...!



Page 20

-That many... zombies
-What's with so many!! Over a hundred



Page 21

-Damn

-Now! Quickly, get outside
-Anna!! Let's go



Page 22

-Just as I thought, the village people came to take refuge here...
-But it's already too late, the infected people were among them too
Eventually they were all annihilated

-The door won't open!?
-What!?

-We're... locked in...?

-... A trap...!!



Page 23

-Cheh..

-Chris...
-Aah... we have no choice but to cut our way through...!



Page 24

-I'm out of ammo!!
-I got it

-This wheat flour...
It's obscuring my field of vision...

Page 25

-Guess I have no choice but to do it...!

-You two!! That refrigerator just now, go inside it

-...Guuh

-Fuuh...

-A "dust bomb", it seems to have done the trick

-...What will we do about this village
With all these abnormalities...!
-I can't tell what their intention of a movement such as this could be...



Page 29

-Ah who would have thought of a dust bomb...

-Filling an entire room with fine powder that is combustible, once ignited an explosion would occur
-You have luck in escaping trouble that you've landed yourself in, even I admire it
Chris

-...Is that so, you?
-So it's you?!!
