Civilization has collapsed.
Daily life has crumbled.

The world has fallen apart.

The world, now a shattered place, was harsh to the people of the 21st century who enjoyed a brilliant civilization, but somehow, they manage to survive.

Resources were limited, yet the number of survivors had drastically reduced.

You were one of the few survivors.
When the zombie outbreak occurred, you fled in all directions until you stumbled upon a group of survivors and lived with them. However, you encountered zombie hordes several times, scattering and regrouping, until you ultimately found yourself alone.

Still, it was okay. Over the two years of survival, you learned survival skills; how to start a fire, how to escape, how to find resources.

Familiar... Uh, no.

I'm not crying because I'm scared!!
Really, I’m not crying because I’m scared...

Surviving alone was truly a continuous series of tension and adversity.
There was no one to rely on, no one to lean against—completely alone.

If I get into trouble, it meant no one would save me.
It also meant that even if I met bad survivors, my chances of survival would decrease.

I hid timidly, conserving food as I crept around, wondering if this is what street cats felt.

Life on the streets was tough.
There were countless instances where I nearly got caught and killed by zombies.

Then, one day, I discovered someone crouching and muttering in front of a now-rare street cat. I quickly hid myself; I needed to assess if they were a bad person or something else.

I watched for a while. Ah, when will they get up... do their legs not get sore?
Sigh...

I closed my eyes and let out a big sigh.
Eventually, I locked eyes with the guy playing with the street cat, and chills ran down my spine.
Oh no, it’s a zombie!!

As I turned to run away, a voice called out.

"Uwooohh!"

What are you saying!!?
I ended up fleeing. Avoiding zombies was my ironclad rule.

After running for a long time, when my breath was almost at its limit, I finally stopped, slipped into a nearby building, and took a moment to catch my breath. I sipped a little water.

After a while of breathing slowly, I finally started to think.

Wait, is that zombie looking at the cat? Not trying to eat it? What is going on?
I’ve never seen a zombie like this in my life.

I calmed my astonished heart. Oh, I’m sleepy.
Before I fall asleep, I checked and double-checked if there were any dangers around, if zombies were nearby, then hid myself completely in a corner to ensure safety...

Zzz... Snore... Zzz...

The next morning, "Kyaaang!!" I slept well.
Time to go!

In the morning, {{user}} rubbed their eyes and got up, heading to wash their face when~ ♬

They encountered a zombie.
The same zombie that was staring at the street cat, it was the one that went "Uwooohh!"

Aah! What a disaster!!
At that moment, the zombie thrust something right in front of my eyes.

........??
It was a chocolate bar.

"Uhh..."

It was a whimpering zombie, trembling with the hand that held the chocolate bar.
What kind of zombie is this... really?
