How To Be Misunderstood as a Villain in a Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 9. How to bake apple pie (1)

The electricity was cut off.

As the whirring of the machines died down, I could hear surrounding noises better.

I remember a time when I went to a noisy cafe.

Did you say you were building a soundproof wall from noise? People were swearing and talking to the people next to them. Then, at some point, the music stopped, and I lowered my voice.

Even if I don’t turn it loud, the person next to me can hear it?

No.

Because they don’t want others to hear their conversation.

People are so strange. If you become conscious of what you are doing, you will act unnaturally, stiffly, and burdensomely.

The same goes for the couple who makes love all day long in the room with the camera rolling in order to pay for their stay in the room next door.

Even if the power goes out, the CCTV is still on, so it doesn’t change much, but you can’t hear any harsh moans or the sound of the bed creaking or hitting the wall.

Above. Under. Across the hallway. It’s all the same. All that can be heard is the sound of people rushing in through the door, the cart probably carrying a body rolling down the hallway, and the leisurely footsteps of a patrolman.

Still, it was definitely a good thing that the world was quiet.

Camilla, with her hair up in a towel and wearing her horn-rimmed glasses, is rolling around on her sofa looking at her phone.

I sat on the chair next to me and looked at my cell phone, then repeatedly glanced at Camilla.

‘I want to be alone.’

At the moment when several thoughts crossed my mind, my body was holding onto her. It was something I did on impulse. Camilla seemed unable to hide her joy.

“I’m not talking about breaking up or keeping our distance or anything like that.”

“Then?”

“I feel anxious without you, I can’t stand being alone… To try to get away from that. “I don’t want to cling to you unconditionally, but I want to walk shoulder to shoulder with you.”

“But why do you express yourself like that?”

Camilla laughed loudly at my words.

“It’s strange. Neither of us are quiet talkers. “Why do I keep going astray when I say it?”

It’s a bit strange. We definitely want and want each other. Didn’t he even leave a kiss mark? However, when you just say it, it seems strangely out of sync.

Only our bodies are honest and honest with each other. It is conveyed without distortion. This is especially true with Camilla.

Why?

Because CCTV was watching, we did not proceed any further. Because I didn’t want to show it like this.

Instead, Camilla washed her face with her clothes on, then bent down and washed her hair in cold water.

“It’s unlikely, but they might snitch on me by looking at the CCTV. “Don’t you think it looks completely different just like this?”

It was definitely like that.

“It looks like a pineapple with glasses.”

Camilla pinched my arm again.

After that, we didn’t say anything to each other. We quietly looked at our respective cell phones.

Of course, I didn’t do anything like open the messenger window or send an email to someone.

Camilla seemed to want to stay away from her past relationships, and I had no one to send to.

Instead, I looked at the application installed by the Continental Hotel.

“It seems like communication is working well here. “Is VPN a service?”

The phone is connected to the ‘national communication network.’

They say they provide an unconventional service called ‘free calls to all citizens’, but no one uses it properly. Because the government censors.

“If you use regular communication, the Elsa government will censor you, and if you use a VPN, your information will be passed on to the syndicate? Which of the two would you choose?”

“Maybe it would be better if this world were just destroyed.”

I didn’t want to use a VPN if I was going to get censored anyway.

The ‘Weight Scale’ app was a black market that I had seen so far, but ‘Weight Scale Plus’ was a bit different. The items you wanted to purchase were sorted, and the list of people you wanted to purchase was listed.

“Camilla. “Isn’t this a dating app?”

It was something I said without thinking, but Camilla opened her axe eyes and glared at me.

“You did something like that?”

“No, I’m just wondering if the screen is a little different. “I haven’t tried it.”

“But how do you know it looks like that?”

“I saw it on the news.”

Camilla was babbling something, and she roughly said, ‘Do I need to fill in the lines?’ I think she meant something like that.

Although the UI was a bit outdated, the structure was solid.

It also showed a partial list of the user’s past purchases, and there was also a rating system to determine whether the person was trustworthy or not. It was not much different from the used market. However, the nickname was hidden.

Among them, we saw the person we were looking for.

“Look at this. I live in District 4. I bought a lot of alcohol. It says that expensive alcohol is also welcome.”

“District 4?”

Camila turned on her phone and looked at the map app.

“Area 4 is a safe zone.”

“I think they run a bar. “Look at this.”

I showed the purchase list. Assuming you run a small bar, this is an understandable purchase amount and quantity.

“… Anyway, the people over there. This… “This is you, right?”

The name was hidden, so we clicked ‘View nickname’.

♡♡ㅇЙㅍrolㅍAㅏ♡ – ☆★☆Liquor○l With art, the ⊂ト☆★☆ special! Comfortable and comfortable!

It is unusual.

“… “Let’s get in touch first.”

But to send a message, you had to create an ID first. Fortunately, I was able to send messages without having to create an ID.

「Excuse me. Are you buying alcohol?”

The reply arrived a while later.

– 「Yeah~ It’s like someone I haven’t seen before-_-^ Who are you talking about!!」

… It was a hassle, so I took a picture of the alcohol I had and sent it to them. The reply came quickly.

– 「Omonaomona~ That’s all Moe~ Do you really have all of that?;;;(Squeak)」

I sent more photos taken from different angles, and even wrote the words ‘It’s authentic’ on a note and sent them again.

「But I have no intention of selling all of this. This is my first time selling apple pie to you. “I want a continuous transaction, I don’t want to just sell it all at once and be done with it.”

I did this every time I used the black market.

First check whether or not a business partner is trustworthy, and if it seems acceptable, gradually increase sales quantity and quality. It is similar to a trust-building race to see how far we can accept each other.

Moreover, this era is not about hoarding and selling goods, but rather a world where everyone pursues maximum profit by exchanging small amounts of resources.

If such high-quality liquor is sold all at once, the price per unit is bound to decrease. My strategy is to tease this woman as much as possible and gradually get a high price.

So, I lined up the liquor bottles and took a picture of them one by one. However, the most valuable liquor was set aside.

「Of these, I will only sell two bottles for now. “Take your pick.”

8Th National Military Police Special Mission Team.

Today, Saturday, Leticia volunteered for her duty. She is for tomorrow’s ‘perfect holiday’.

If I stay up all night today and get off work tomorrow morning, not even the unit will call me until evening.

I know that executives are human too and should be allowed to rest. Especially if war doesn’t break out.

These days, it has become difficult to find even beer, let alone high-quality alcohol, as the seeds have dried up.

Things like moonshine of unknown origin and kvass made by adding yeast to bread are the mainstays of the market.

Leticia also drank kvass, but she was used to her strong drink and from her point of view, it was nothing but bland.

But.

“What is all this?”

In her bathroom, Leticia looked at her cell phone with an ecstatic expression.

Leticia carried two cell phones because she was an executive who knew how to distinguish between construction and construction. One for work and one for personal use. The personal application includes both ‘Weight Scale’ and ‘Weight Scale Plus’.

However, someone sent me a photo through Scale Plus. There were some valuable drinks there that I hadn’t seen in a long time.

Minsk liquor.

Although he is an officer with a certain rank, when the world was in a good state, it was an item that was burdensome to buy with money. Rather, it is a luxury item whose price went down as wars and disasters broke out and bartering became successful, Minsk-produced alcohol.

“Oh my god. This… “Is this real?”

I couldn’t hold back my saliva. Already in Leticia’s mind, a list of various cocktail recipes that could be made with these drinks and snacks that would be good to eat along with them was growing.

Most of the snacks were ones where you had to worry about calories, but it didn’t matter since there was no one to eat them with.

Delicious snacks and drinks that can set the mood even when eaten alone. A lonely woman needed something like that.

“… But you’re only selling two? “Look at this.”

However, unfamiliar sellers are probably suspicious.

Even though it is a ‘syndicate’ application, it does not guarantee the product or seller, as it only arranges a meeting.

If a shootout breaks out between the seller and the buyer, the syndicate will not intervene. Because transactions are between ‘parties’.

Instead, if something like that happens, the syndicate will write a separate memo or evaluation. It is impossible to erase evaluations such as, ‘They shot him because he was being ripped off.’

This seller has nothing like that. An account with no past sales or purchase records, even if it was created less than a day ago.

But it is good enough to win awards. The smell of fraud is strong. Leticia thought that the other party knew that they would look like that, so they only sold two items.

“First of all, we should meet in a public place. Safety. Then… “

Leticia played around with her cell phone.

“Okay. “It would be nice here.”

* * * * *

“… Why are you asking us to meet in a place like this? “Are you asking us on a date? What are you talking about, man?”

Camilla was irritated. To me, it doesn’t seem like an appropriate place for trading. The place ♡ㅇЙPLㅍrolJamAㅏ♡ pointed out was a pie shop in District 13.

The location itself is not bad. It’s right in the middle between that person and this hotel, and you can find it right away if you walk along the main road.

The problem is that the store concept is ‘Fairytale Land’.

Pink and light blue are intertwined to the point of dizzying, and the star rating is 4.8 Out of 5, with the recommendation ‘The best meeting place for lovers’ at the top.

– The entrance fee is expensive, but it offers unlimited refills for two hours, so it’s not that bad of a store for cost-effectiveness!

Re: It’s so sweet that it will break your head if you eat one, so you can’t eat two even if you die, but it’s cost-effective… Is it a pig?;

– Aside from the entrance fee, right next to it is Deer Square, right? So on hot days, there is a lot of foul smell. I do not recommend a seat near the window. Other than that, the atmosphere inside was nice and the staff were friendly.

“Wait a minute, Camilla. “It’s called Deer Square. Don’t you think you’ve heard of it before?”

“Deer Square. Deer. Ah. There? “You said those fanatics were holding a rally.”

I remembered. It was clearly said that the meeting would be held on Saturday and Sunday. Today is Saturday. The rally will probably be held tomorrow as well.

“Ah, this person. “You used your brain quite a bit.”

I thought I knew why he asked me to meet him here. Camilla looks at me with her questioning eyes.

“You saw it. The military police follow around those fanatics. 14 Was it the military police? So, since there are soldiers with guns around, don’t even think about doing anything strange. This.”

“… “Aren’t you putting it too far over there?”

It’s still a fox statue, but since it’s slightly protruding, it really looks like a fox.

“By the way, Johan, how much are you going to sell that for?”

I already gave the answer.

“First of all, lower the price they ask.”

“What? Why?”

Instead of saying, “I’m going to eat it all the way to the bone,” I smiled kindly.
