บท 182: Silence [6]

The emergency station wasn't far from where I was. I could practically see it from where I stood. 

It was within a tall, black spiral that twisted towards the sky, starkly contrasting with the surrounding buildings. The structure's dark, glossy surface reflected the dim red light coming from the Crimson Shade, making it look like a shard of obsidian jutting into the sky.

It was hard to not take notice of such a building. 

Rushing with all my might, I looked behind me to see several eaters glancing my way. I pursed my lips and continued to sprint.

Bang—!

"….!"

The building next to me shattered and a hand crept in my direction. 

I felt my heart jump out of my chest at the sight of the hand. It was fast, and I just barely managed to avoid it by ducking down.

"Hiieeek—!"

Emerging from the building was an eater who twisted its head in the air to feel for any noise.
