Doomsday Rebirth: I Rip Apart the Cheating Couple のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 9

Audrey forced her anger down, speaking fast, as if time was working against us. "The base is under siege, Quinton! A full-blown horde! The safe door won't hold much longer! Get the outer high-voltage grid online now!"Everyone's heart jumped into their throat."Mom, what are you talking about? The power's locked in for the hilltop lights. Not a second can go out. If I divert it to the grid, what happens to Maddie's birthday setup?"He let out a dismissive laugh. "Is Selene feeding you panic again? She's that jealous of Maddie, huh? I'm just up here watching the sunrise with her. Yet, Selene has gone so far as to team up with you to spin a lie just to drag me back?"Audrey was shaking with rage. "You foolish idiot! Do you have any idea—"The line went dead, cut off without a second thought. The safe room fell into a heavy silence. Despair spread like an infection."It's over… We're done for this time…"I stared at the door, which was already warped and buckling. My chest tightene

Madeline's soft voice came through the loudspeakers. "Selene, just throw the body off the cliff! If the zombies catch the scent, they'll come swarming, and you'll die, too!"Several of the squad members who had witnessed everything showed hesitation and unease on their faces.A young soldier, Julian Stone, leaned in and whispered to his teammate, "Mrs. Morwood doesn't look like she's faking it…"He hesitated briefly, then finally voiced what had been stuck in his mind for a long time. "Could something actually happen at the base? What if what she said was true—"Before he could finish, another teammate cut him off. "How could Captain Morwood not know what's going on at the base? I bet his wife is just jealous of Ms. Moore and staged a scene. Women like that always let jealousy get the best of them."Still, Julian wasn't quite convinced. He muttered under his breath, "But what if, though? What if something did happen back at the base? Our families are all still there!"A squad lea

"You still have the nerve to ask about Mom?" I said, looking straight into Quinton's eyes. "She's dead! You killed her with your own damn rocket launcher!"My voice started shaking uncontrollably. In my mind, I still saw the moment Audrey's body was blown apart."Her body is down at the bottom of the cliff, being eaten by vultures! You did this, Quinton! You killed her!" I roared. Tears spilled down in heavy drops.Quinton's knees gave out. He dropped straight down onto the ground. "No way… It wasn't me. How could it be me?"A heavy, suffocating grief swallowed the whole room. It pressed on everyone's chest, making it hard to breathe. Then, from the side where she had been silently standing, Madeline finally stepped forward.Her voice carried just the right amount of confusion as she asked, "But why did the zombie outbreak happen right when it was my birthday?"She frowned slightly, as if she genuinely couldn't understand it. "And why is it that there isn't a single security guar

"Right! The fence…"However, when the squad rushed toward the control room, they ran straight into a crushing truth."Report—the power for the high-voltage fence… has all been rerouted to the fireworks system on the hilltop!"They came stumbling back. Their faces were completely hollow."What?"Quinton coughed up a mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with despair and regret.The old squad member who had once defended him finally broke down. He dropped to his knees and screamed, "We did this to ourselves! We threw away our only chance of survival for a woman's birthday!"Hiding behind the rock, I watched it all unfold. My heart felt like it was being cut apart. In the face of a disaster like this, humans were nothing but small, pathetic lives.Still, no matter how small, we couldn't bow to fate.The moment a zombie lunged at Julian, I rushed out without hesitation. I used my injured body to block the fatal strike head-on."Ms. Lockhart, why did you step out?" he asked, loo
