WEEK 6
[Week six comes like an ominous wave. If anything, the wall is more threatening that it's ever been. That sign from last week? Looks aged-- like it's far more than just a week old. But more than that, it feels like something is waiting to snap this week. What could possibly go wrong, after last week?
Said no one ever, at this point.
But still, if you look around this week, you might find out something. It's like someone has started leaving clues in places old and new. Take a look around.]

News report saying major D-756 incident at Heathrow airport, crippling air travel to and from London after an infected mob destroyed the air towers. Warning signs showing several pilots were infected after traveling from Heathrow caused multiple airlines to complete shut down travel for the next week.
Do you keep reading?]
no subject
Yes, he'll keep reading but first he wants to check if the book has some sort of publication date or lists the authors that wrote this before turning the page. ]
no subject
The authors are a group of historians.
The first chapter is The Erasure of Japan.]
no subject
The erasu--
Well, this sure sounds fine! He might not actually be Japanese in spite of him being in the body of a Japanese male, but he still likes Japan. Let's go ahead and turn the page to read that first chapter. He's going to be thorough about it, so no skimming, even if he's normally a lazy fuck. ]
no subject
Anyway!
It talks about how the Heathrow incident was just a precursor, and Japan's small size and crowded population seemed to encourage the spread of the virus, even if no one is sure who was patient zero or where it started.
Japan has been completely dark for 5 years at this point.]
no subject
Nevertheless, this is pretty interesting. But the fact that it all started in Japan is not exactly encouraging news in the slightest bit. And it's been dark for five years based on this book... depending on what year they're actually in comparative to when that book was published, this might be important.
He'll probably have to look for other books later after this one..... but let's keep going. Anything else to find in this chapter or should we move along to the next one? He's here for this. ]

it's something, right?]

Is there any other information that can be gleaned from the other chapters? ]
