Chapter 42: Chapter 42: It Doesn’t Matter Even if it’s an Illusion

After being surprised for a while, Kanazawa picked up the cigarette butt again and said,

"How did you do this? It's much easier this way."

(T/L: Well... that's a calm reaction, I mean considering for them it's the apocalypse. What's there to be surprised of?)

After spending some time, Senju finally turned the stones at one end of the building into an up-hill slope, and Chito started the car and drove up the slope.

However, it was still difficult for Chito to drive. Senju and Yuuri were helping push the car.

Looking at the stone slope next to them, Yuuri felt a little grateful. "Fortunately, Senju is here, otherwise I would have to work again. These stone looks very heavy."

Kanazawa, who was following them, also recognized Chito car, "This is the first time I've seen a semi-rail car."

"Speaking of which, Kanazawa, where is your vehicle?" Chito was a little curious about Kanazawa' vehicle.

Kanazawa thought about it for a while before replying,

"I originally had a motorcycle, but it broke down later, so I thought I could hitch a ride with you three."

Then he saw the car parked on the platform above and hurried over to help,

"I know the route around here. Just take me to the entrance to the upper level. I will figure out a way for myself in the future."

At this time, the car was just able to reach the top.

When Yuuri saw that the car had finally reached the top , she lay down on the slope to celebrate,

"Oh, we finally climbed up! I'm so exhausted."

Then she sighed again, "I haven't sweated for a long time. This sweat makes me feel alive."

"Alive?" Kanazawa was a little confused, and Yuuri pulled Chito to explain, "Chii-chan said she didn't know whether she wanted to live or not."

"I didn't say that." Chito denied Yuuri's statement.

Chito then sat in the driver's seat, and the rest of them crowded into the passenger seat.

After setting off for a while, Kanazawa was a little confused about what Senju was wearing,

"By the way, why are you wearing armor? It's made of iron, right?"

"Of course it's for safety, do you want a set of theses too?" Senju answered seriously.

But Kanazawa did not agree, he shook his head and said "It looks very heavy. I don't need it."

After a while, the car came to the other side of the bridge.

Although there was a lot of gravel on the slope, Senju sorted it out a few times and a road appeared.

However, Chito still drove the car in reverse carefully.

After going down, Kanazawa and Yuuri were also helping with ropes to prevent the car from sliding down too fast.

After reaching the road opposite the deep ditch, Senju took out his car.

The sudden appearance of the car made Kanazawa feel like he was in a dream, and the hand holding the cigarette kept shaking,

"How did you do this? Ah, could it be that I'm hallucinating now, and I'm actually the only one here?"

"Kanazawa, what's wrong with you? Get in the car quickly." After putting the car out, Senju installed the tie rod and called to Kanazawa who was in a daze.

"Oh, how did you do that?" Kanazawa was a little surprised, but his appearance remained as normal as he sat in Senju's carriage.

"This is my ability. I can 'store' some things." After seeing Kanazawa sit down, Senju started the car, followed by Chito and Yuuri.

"Really, that's really convenient." Kanazawa hugged his satchel and felt relieved.

After driving for a while, a fork in the road appeared in front of him.

"Turn left, and the two behind us should follow closely. There's a car nearby. Let's go, but I'm not sure if two cars will be enough."

"That's enough. It's a big help to be able to find a refueling point. I haven't been able to find fuel here recently," Chito, who was following behind, also said.

The two cars were very close on such a road. Slowly, they followed Kanazawa's directions.

After walking around for a while, a familiar building appeared in front, but this one was much larger.

There was a circle of stairs leading upwards, and there were large and small pipes connected to it.

It was more than ten meters high in total. Of course, it cannot be compared with the pillars supporting the entire city behind.

The two cars stopped on one side. After a few people approached, Chito found that this building was much larger than what she had seen before. "What a spectacular refueling facility."

"This seems to be the last refueling point here. After all, it's near the passage now."

"Really? Let me see," Chito stepped on the ladder surrounding the oil tank and identified the pipes on it.

After turning around, she found the target and read the number on it, "7, it should be this, but there's no rubber hose."

"Senju, put the bucket over here, and give me the rubber pipe on the way. Yuu, come and help too."

"Okay," the two of them agreed, and Senju placed the oil drum under the pipe. Yuuri stood by, and then Senju went up the stairs and gave Chito a rubber pipe that he had found before, "Is this one suitable?"

"It's a little short, but it's long enough," Chito said, feeling a little discouraged after gesturing for a while.

Senju just took out a funnel and put the rubber tube underneath just right.

Then he lowered the rubber tube just enough to reach the ground.

"Yuuri, put the pipe into the oil drum," Senju then put the funnel under the pipe.

After Chito saw Yuuri put the other end of the pipe into the oil drum, she unscrewed the valve and the fuel inside flowed out.

"You're so capable." Although his attention was always on the map in his hand, Kanazawa still saw a few people busy next to him and couldn't help but sigh.

After the three people filled the oil barrels below, the two people above also got down.

Chito and Yuuri carried one barrel and poured it into the car's fuel tank, while Senju collected the rest.

"Doesn't this car need to be refueled?" Kanazawa pointed to Senju's car next to him. He was curious when he saw that Chito's car was filled with gas, but Senju's was left alone.

"I don't quite understand, but Senju said his car doesn't need gas."

"My car uses other energy sources. Although it is okay to refuel, it is better not to waste fuel."

"Oh, really, it's really convenient."

"By the way, Kanazawa, you don't have a car, do you? Do you want to travel with us? The location is just right." Senju looked at the map in his hand and wanted to pull him into the team.

"Well, I just want to take a ride now. I have other things to do when I get to the upper level."

"Really? It's such a pity. When we get to the upper level, I'll give this car to you. Now you have to learn how to use this car."

"Is this okay? I'm just a hitchhiker."

"It's okay, it's okay. I can make another one anyways, and you also helped us show the way, otherwise we wouldn't be able to find the direction. We are helping each other."

After Senju put away the empty oil drums next to him, everyone got into their respective cars and slowly moved forward according to Kanazawa's directions.

On the way, Senju also told Kanazawa about the most important thing about the car...

Wow, did not expect the stones to pile up! It's almost 100!

You know, the reason why I limit the goal to 30 was because I thought we would only reach maybe about only 30-40 a week...

Sheesh, seriously I'll just change the goal to 50. Next week I'll properly post my... how many chapters again? 25 now? 💀
