"There should be a lot of supplies in this mall, right?" In a corner in front of the mall, a middle-aged man wrapped in bandages stared intently at the mall in front of him.
The longing in his eyes was palpable.
If conditions allowed, he would probably rush into the mall without hesitation and take all the supplies he could get his hands on.
"What a pity! It seems there are already people here in this mall!" said another thin, middle-aged man.
"Big sister, should we force our way in?!" At this moment, the middle-aged man with bandages asked the middle-aged woman standing in the middle.
The middle-aged woman looked to be around thirty years old, with purple hair, wearing a dress, and exuding elegance.
She looked tired, and her clothes were stained with blood.
It looks like they just broke out of a zombie horde.
Her name is Yuriko Takashiro. She is a wealthy woman who turned her villa into a shelter after the zombie outbreak.
It's a pity that the people in the shelter have no sense of crisis at all and think the zombie crisis is fake.
Yuriko Takagi was in such a sorry state because of the electron pulse.
Because the electronic pulse rendered many electronic devices unusable, the island owner's defenses at their shelter were breached by zombies. In addition, the people in their shelter were the kind of people who were unwilling to face reality, which led to the complete fall of their shelter.
At the same time, Yuriko Takagi is also Saya Takagi's mother, but she doesn't know that her daughter works in this shopping mall.
"It's best not to get into a conflict with them," Yuriko Takagi said to her two subordinates.
"Yes, indeed, we must preserve our strength as much as possible," the thin man agreed.
“We have weapons, so why don’t we just charge in and shoot? That would save us the trouble!” the middle-aged man with bandages said. His expression was unusually serious as he spoke, as if he were genuinely considering the matter.
"Let's not do it. What if the other person also has a weapon? If you do this, won't you be putting us in danger?!" Yuriko Takagi said, echoing the words of the middle-aged man with bandages.
"Who?!" Just then, a figure rushed straight towards Yuriko Takagi and her companions.
It's Rei Miyamoto.
"Huh?!" Takagi Yuriko was caught off guard by the sudden attack.
She instinctively wanted to avoid it.
"Huh?!" The middle-aged man with bandages also subconsciously picked up the iron rod in his hand and swung it at Miyamoto Rei.
In his view, the person in front of him was just a little girl, and not difficult to deal with.
The bandaged man then attacked Rei Miyamoto.
You underestimated Miyamoto Rei's strength.
Miyamoto Rei wielded her homemade spear a few times and knocked the middle-aged man, who was wrapped in bandages, to the ground.
"Huh!? This..." The bandaged man was also puzzled. Before he could react, he was beaten to the ground.
The bandaged man took a pistol from his waist and fired a shot at Rei Miyamoto.
"Huh?!" The moment she saw the bandaged man pull out a pistol, Miyamoto Rei immediately distanced herself from him.
The bandaged man immediately stood up and fired several shots at the spot where Miyamoto Rei was.
Fortunately, Rei Miyamoto knew to use a wall as cover; otherwise, she would probably have been injured.
However, the gunshot, fired by the bandaged man, attracted a number of zombies from the vicinity.
Even some of the motion-sensor lights in the mall were turned on.
"It's over! We've been exposed!" Upon seeing this, Yuriko Takagi knew that her whereabouts had been revealed.
Yuriko Takagi was speechless. Maybe if she had spoken to someone nicely, they would have given her some supplies. But the way she was doing it now, she was just making herself a target!
"Whoosh!" Just then, a figure appeared, rushed directly to the middle-aged man with bandages, and kicked away the pistol in his hand.
It is Joel.
Moreover, because Joel kicked so hard, the middle-aged man's hand, which was wrapped around the jumping man, went numb.
"Huh?! What's going on with you?!" The middle-aged man with bandages was speechless. Were all the merchants in this business trip this powerful?!
The middle-aged man, still wrapped in bandages, tried to continue fighting but didn't retaliate. The next second, a dagger appeared on his neck.
"Don't move!" Joel warned the middle-aged man with bandages.
The warning was delivered in an exceptionally cold tone.
The middle-aged man with bandages knew very well that if he moved around too much, Joel would really kill him.
"Okay, okay! I won't move, I won't move!" The bandaged man raised his hands and said to Joel.
"Big Sister, are we going out of here?!" the thin man asked Yuriko Takashiro.
"Sigh~ They're still one of us after all!" Yuriko Takagi sighed and then spoke to the thin man.
After saying that, Yuriko Takashiro stood up and walked out.
“Madam, we mean no harm. We’re just here to collect some supplies,” Yuriko Takagi said to Yoel.
"Oh, just to get some supplies?!" Joel looked at Yuriko Takagi with a skeptical expression.
However, when Yoel looked at Yuriko Takagi, he also felt that she looked somewhat familiar.
"Boss?! Something's wrong! The zombies around here are gathering here." Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in tattered clothes came up to Yuriko Takagi and said to her.
"What?! Zombies are gathering this way? What's going on?!" Yuriko Takagi questioned the henchman.
"Someone just fired a shot; the gunshot attracted the zombies," the henchman said to Yuriko Takagi.
"What?! Gunshots?!" After hearing the henchman's words, Yuriko Takagi also looked at the middle-aged man with bandages standing in the distance.
He was the one who fired the shot just now. He bears undeniable responsibility for the zombies gathering here.
"..." Noticing Yuriko Takagi's gaze, the bandaged man also showed a remorseful expression.
"What happened?!" At this moment, Shiraki Meiko, Jingu Ichi, and others also arrived at the supermarket entrance.
"Mr. Jingu, their people just opened fire, and the gunfire has attracted a lot of zombies." Joel immediately came to Jingu and said to him.
"Huh?! What?! Shooting?! Is anyone hurt?!" Upon hearing that someone had fired a shot, Jingu Yi immediately asked with concern.
“No.” Miyamoto Rei walked up to Jingu Ichi and said to him.
"It's good that you're not injured!" Seeing that Miyamoto Rei was safe and sound, Jingu I also breathed a sigh of relief.

Huh?! That woman who just kicked the gun away is being so respectful to that man. Could he be the leader of this group?!
Seeing how respectful Joel was to Jingu I, Takagi Yuriko deduced that he was the leader of the group.
"Um, sir, we don't mean any harm. We're just here to borrow some supplies," Yuriko Takagi said, bowing slightly before addressing Ichiro Jingu.

Huh?! The person in front of me is Yuriko Takagi, Saya Takagi's mother.
But why is she here?!
In the original story, after the Takashiro family villa was breached, Yuriko Takashiro no longer appears in the story.
Whether it broke through or not is left to the reader's imagination.
"Was it one of your people who fired the shot just now?" Jingu Yi glanced at Takashiro Yuriko, then questioned her.
"Yes, I'm very sorry. Just now, it was indeed one of our people who fired the shot. I sincerely apologize." Yuriko Takashiro bowed slightly to Isamu Jingu in apology.
Because of the angle, from Shengu Yi's perspective, one can see a large expanse of snow-white.
Yuriko Takashiro has a very alluring figure, with her two towering breasts being particularly attractive.
Saya Takagi inherited her good genes.
“A verbal apology alone is not enough.” Jingu I also said this in response to Takashiro Yuriko’s apology.
"Huh?!" Takagi Yuriko was stunned after hearing Jingu Ichi's words.
When she looked at Shen Gongyi just now, she noticed that the way he looked at her was a little strange, as if he knew her. But his current attitude made her wonder if she had seen wrong.
"Mr. Jingu, how is the matter being handled?!" Just then, Takagi Saya finally arrived late.
Saya Takagi had just returned to the lounge and changed into her school uniform.
"Huh?! Saya?" Upon seeing Saya Takagi, Yuriko Takagi rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
After confirming that he hadn't misread it, he waved to her.
"Mother?!" Upon seeing Yuriko Takagi, Saya Takagi's face lit up with joy, and she rushed straight into Yuriko's arms.
“Mother, I never thought I’d see you again!” Takagi Saya said to Takagi Yuriko.
While speaking, he also snuggled up to her and acted coquettishly.
"Alright, alright, you're a grown-up, why are you still acting like this? Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you?" Seeing Takagi Saya acting coquettishly in her arms, Takagi Yuriko said helplessly.
“Master Jingu, this is my mother.” Takagi Saya immediately pulled Takagi Yuriko and introduced her to Jingu.
"Oh, so it's Ms. Yuriko Takagi! No wonder I felt like I'd seen you somewhere before. Let me introduce myself, my name is Jingu Ichi." After hearing Saya Takagi's introduction, Jingu Ichi also introduced himself to Yuriko Takagi.
When introducing himself, he also extended his hand.
"Yes, nice to meet you." Yuriko Takagi grasped Ichi Jingu's hand.
The moment he grasped her hand, Shen Gongyi felt a chill.
Yuriko Takagi's hands were a little cold, and her face looked very haggard.
