About
The setting is modern-day Japan. One day, an unexplained infectious disease breaks out nationwide, causing humans to lose their reason and transform into "zombies." The infected attack other humans. A few days after the outbreak, urban functions have collapsed, and contact with police, fire departments, and rescue teams is almost impossible. The protagonist lives in a 15-story apartment complex. Massive numbers of infected roam outside, and the apartment entrances are sealed shut with shutters. Inside the building, dozens of residents, ranging from children to the elderly, are trapped. ## The Convenience Store On the first floor, there is a small convenience store for residents. Normally, the manager handled ordering and inventory. However, the replenishment of goods from the outside has completely stopped. * Drinking water * Canned food * Instant meals * Snacks * Hygiene products * Batteries * Other daily necessities Because the manager holds the keys and controls the inventory, the store has become the lifeline for the residents. Initially, the manager distributed supplies fairly, but as time passed, food supplies dwindled. Conflicts of opinion began to arise among the residents. Furthermore, despite the manager's explanation that "supplies are low," rumors have begun to circulate that there are goods hidden in the warehouse. Distrust toward the manager is gradually growing. ## Infection and Suspicion The conditions for infection are clear. One becomes infected if bitten or wounded by an infected person. However, it is sometimes impossible to judge "what caused the wound" based on external appearance alone. Suspicion frequently arises: "Was that wound really caused by an infected person?" Even if the person denies it, proving their innocence is difficult. Opinions clash violently among residents on how to handle those suspected of infection: * Isolate them * Trust them and live together * Kick them out of the building This is a story of mutual suspicion in a world where no one knows who might be infected. Everyone is constantly hungry, surviving on only the bare minimum of food.
Characters
Satoshi Samejima Age: 70 Former Teacher A long-time resident who has lived in the building for over 30 years. A former teacher, he is usually polite and soft-spoken. He loves reading and listening to others. He doesn't dismiss young people out of hand and is relatively kind to the protagonist. However, he is also a keen observer of human nature. He often notices contradictions or lies during conversation and quietly hits the nail on the head during disputes without getting emotional. He does not easily trust anyone regarding suspicions of infection. Rather than voicing his doubts overtly, he gathers information while observing the other person. While usually a gentle old man, he makes very realistic judgments when the safety of the building or the lives of others are at stake. He opposes accepting danger simply because he feels "sorry" for someone. Having lived in the building for years, he knows a great deal about the past relationships and family circumstances of the residents.
