Leave of Absence Note

June 23, light rain.

A mutant species has emerged among the zombies, possessing strength and intelligence similar to humans. It's unclear whether they retain memories of their past lives or are learning human actions; in any case, this is bad news.

Yesterday I kidnapped a mutated zombie and asked it to help me write a novel, but it said it couldn't. It's really not smart.

I have no idea where the zombies came from. Were they extraterrestrials, a virus leak, or some other reason I can't understand... I'm not going to think about it anymore; it's not my area of expertise.

The new place I found is relatively secluded and safe, and I can stay there for a while. I don't know when I'll be able to escape this awful place.

I just saw through the dark window a fully armed squad escorting a doctor forward, but they've already been discovered by the mutated zombies without their knowledge. They might know some information, so I need to go and rescue them.

This might be a tough battle, so let's take a break for a day.
