Hiding the House in the Apocalypse - Hiding the House in the Apocalypse chapter 69

42. paradise (2)

It wasn’t surprising that there was Hunter among Chairman Park Chul-ju’s bodyguards, but I didn’t expect that the bodyguard was someone I knew.

A man named Kim Pil-seong came to my shelter with Ji Young-hee.

It’s a motivation since I’m from school.

Well, no surprise.

I have 1,200 of my peers.

Most of them are dead, but there are quite a few who are still alive and act shamelessly.

“Park Kyu. You really are Park Gyu.”

When there are about 1,200 classmates, there are people who don’t even remember their faces, but Kim Pil-sung is a friend who remembers at least his face.

I remember him because he withstood my attack for a long time in a mock battle using a cold weapon.

7.8 seconds.

It was the amount of time it took him to drop his weapon.

“… f*ck.”

Immediately after the defeat, he spat out abusive language.

It is a taboo in a school where all indecent behavior is forbidden.

In particular, our instructor Jang Ki-young thought that swearing was very vulgar.

“you. come out! You uncultured bastard! Hunters don’t swear! Recitation performed!”

Jang Ki-young called him out with a booming voice and gave him a sense of humor.

Later, I heard that Pilseong Kim was a swordsman who ran a kendo hall for generations, and he himself was a kendo champion.

Perhaps that is why he showed such strong anger when he was defeated in Dalian.

After that, he never reappeared in my life.

He was probably in China, but he would have been on a different mission from me and fought on a different front.

After more than 10 years, the two motives reunited.

The boy, who had a skinny body and had his hair cut short enough to be close to a ponytail, turned into a handsome man with a tanned, muscular body and long hair that was tied back in a ponytail.

“Wow.”

Pilseong Kim burst out laughing when he saw my camouflage house.

He looked at me with a look of wonder.

“How can people live in a place like this?”

Of course I can’t live.

However, there is nothing good about telling the truth, so I put a steel plate on my face and said it calmly.

“······Mountain is mountain and water is water. If you’re attached to it, that’s your home.”

Originally, he has a tendency to lie incorrectly, but he has gone through all kinds of battles.

Even pretending to be a woman, it’s about small lies like this.

“Take this first.”

Pilseong Kim was still a polite friend.

It is clear that he did not come empty-handed.

He was carrying a large barrel of oil, and Ji Young-hee was also carrying a thick black bag.

Inside the black bag were yesterday’s leftover beef, vegetables, instant rice, and ready-to-eat combat rations, which also contained a separate water purification capsule.

“No, all of these things.”

I felt that I was not like a “professor,” even though I waved my hand and was taken lightly, but what can I do?

It’s all about eating.

When will you eat such good quality vegetables and protein?

I will live for ten thousand days on deer sausage, and a thousand days on beef.

Ji Young-hee looked at me and opened her mouth.

“I’ve taken care of myself before, and I thought it would be difficult, so I prepared it.”

It seems that you put your heart into it

As we were bowing and expressing our gratitude, Kim Pil-sung looked at my area and suddenly said,

“Are you still living here?”

The moment I heard that, the emotion I felt was embarrassment.

It’s said to be a motive, but isn’t it too lacking in contact with each other to ask regards?

It’s safe to say that the horse was a stranger from the same age, but it was awkward to narrow the distance like that.

After not speaking for a while, Pilseong Kim looked at me.

I felt like I had to answer something, so I answered moderately.

“Rarely. I went to Incheon, and came back here again when work was off.”

“Right.”

He moved his gaze toward the low hill where my main air-raid shelter was located.

“That’s the highest ground here. I can control all sides.”

“…”

“by the way······.”

Pilseong Kim looked at me with a meaningful smile as he lost his words.

“It feels like the whole town is on edge?”

It seems that he noticed the hint.

The death traps lurking in my seemingly flimsy realm.

he asked with a grin.

“Did you install the booby traps?”

Are you a veteran of war?

“I did set some traps.”

Let’s admit it in moderation,

“also.”

Pilseong Kim nodded with a satisfied expression.

I don’t know why, but it’s a pretty good feeling.

“I heard you’re going to Japan anyway.”

Taking advantage of that gap, the topic quickly changed.

Kim Pil-seong looked at Ji Young-hee.

“Listen to Younghee for details, and I’ll rest my eyes in the car for a while. I couldn’t sleep at all yesterday because I was on guard.”

Kim Pil-seong looked around my territory once and sat down in the passenger seat of the SUV with a protracted yawn.

Pilseong Kim’s military boots protruded through the door that had not been closed.

“By the way, how is your father?”

It wasn’t really an intentional question.

However, this is a question that I wanted to buy some time because the guy named Kim Pil-seong seems to be more difficult than I thought.

Fortunately, Ji Young-hee answered with a smile.

“You are at Chairman Park Cheol-ju’s house.”

As if she had no solution, she raised her hands and shook her head.

“Your wish came true.”

“Wish fulfilled?”

“yes. Because I became the owner of the chaebol house that I wanted so much.”

From the explanation that followed, I was able to know the inside story of the incident.

Ji Young-hee’s father, Ji Chang-soo, bought Park Cheol-ju’s half-ruined house.

I don’t know how he made money during this period of collapse, but Ji Chang-soo bought Park Chul-joo’s conglomerate house and now became the owner of the conglomerate family.

In the photo released by Ji Young-hee, Ji Chang-soo is taking a group photo with a group of people against the widely known ruins of Park Cheol-ju.

They were wearing something like aprons for some reason, and some aprons even had bloodstains on them.

Did you change your business to slaughter?

As far as I know, Ji Chang-soo was known to manufacture automotive electronic components.

Aside from the apron, it seemed a bit awkward to stand proudly in the center as if he were the owner of a conglomerate family.

In my opinion, Ji Chang-soo was the irreplaceable loyalist of his chairman – Je Poong-ho.

“······My father wanted to become a conglomerate. That’s why I did such an unreasonable thing. In the past, I didn’t understand it at all, but after I got Chairman Park’s house and saw his smiling face, all the absurd things that happened so far finally feel like reality.”

Ji Young-hee said with a lonely smile.

“You have found your paradise.”

An expression that doesn’t know whether it’s satisfaction or love-hate.

There must have been a lot of resentment and a lot of disappointment.

Maybe the loss of that feeling is currently in progress.

“Are you going to Japan?”

Ji Young-hee stared at me, then looked around and whispered in a low voice.

“Can I be honest with you?”

“…”

You won’t have to listen.

But I never had a chance to hear it.

A wolf’s howl heard long ago echoed from the west.

It’s the howling of dogs.

Ji Young-hee trembled and showed her teeth.

“Mutation!”

Yes.

There are dogs in the west.

Gold.

The man who had given me a wild boar, an elk, three pheasants, and three chickens was leading the herd, glaring at us and making a menacing howl.

“Younghee! I have to go!”

Pilseong Kim shouted.

Ji Young-hee looked back and asked me as if she had suddenly remembered something.

“Hunter Park.”

“yes.”

“Can you help me?”

I have to help.

Not the Park Cheol-ju gang, but the Gold gang.

clap-

This is what I thought as soon as I saw the large-caliber rifle for anti-mutation that Pilseong Kim was loading in the car.

*

Park Cheol-joo’s bodyguards seemed to be of a higher level than Ji Chang-soo’s idiots.

They are soldiers, or people with similar careers.

His attitude towards firearms and his attitude toward the world basically gave off the unique smell of gunpowder for someone who had spent a long time on the battlefield.

Such people are whispering to me.

“That Hunter. It’s no joke.”

“That’s right. Those cannibal dogs get scared and run away just by looking at them.”

“Is there such a thing as an aura? It’s like a dogfighter.”

“Shh! He will listen!”

It’s something I didn’t want to do, but it was acknowledged.

It was also Gold who provided the reason.

I got into Kim Pil-seong’s car, arrived at Park Chul-joo’s camp, borrowed a bike, and ran straight to Gold, shouting.

“go! go! Baby! go! This little bastard! I ate a few pounds of beef, and he killed an elk. A guy who doesn’t even know grace. eat you elk.”

From nob le mt l dot com

Gold growled at me.

Especially at the point of being a petty bastard, his anger reached its peak, and he pointed at me with his front paw.

Are you saying that I’m a petty guy?

They gave me beef that was a little strange, but it was still beef.

I heard that a dog’s stomach is stronger than a human’s and is resistant to botulinum bacteria.

Anyway, the meaning was the same.

When I pretended to slit his neck while pointing behind him, he understood my meaning and hurriedly ran away with the group.

It was around that time that the SUV corps, including Kim Pil-seong, arrived behind me with bloody weapons.

“No f*ck?!”

a man shouted.

Only then did they grasp the situation.

That I drove off the mutant dogs without a single shot.

Looking at the contents, it is a heartwarming story that corresponds to the beast that repays the favor of Heungbujeon, but in their eyes, it seems that I am a superhuman who scares away ferocious killer dogs with only my spirit.

“Are you Awaken?”

A bodyguard who was ignorant of Awaken looked at me and asked.

In an instant, I remembered a reply to a message I frequently typed recently.

SKELTON: I’ll leave it to your imagination~♥

I almost said fostering.

“…”

Is this the evil of the internet?

However, my brief bewilderment seems to have brought even greater mystery to the bodyguards who were already looking at me in awe.

“Hunter Park. You’re not kidding. You single-handedly took down dozens of mutants with guns and axes. Seriously, I wouldn’t even make a movie like that.”

Ji Young-hee’s cubic courtesy also coated me into a more difficult character.

It was my classmate, Kim Pil-seong, who took the peak of Hwaryong.

“… my classmates were the best of us.”

he saw me

“You’re the only friend who defeated me in close combat.”

What would you say in this situation?

“…”

There was no other option but silence.

That silence brought me to the character of Park Cheol-ju.

“President. I am Park Kyu Hunter.”

In the conference room of a large underground facility abandoned by the US military, Park Chul-ju turned around with his hands behind his back and was looking at a faded map hanging on the wall.

“Nice to meet you. Park Kyu Hunter.”

Park Cheol-ju’s evaluation before the war was not very good.

As far as I can remember,

Finding one of her in-laws is her only talent and her greatest achievement.

It is the epitome of collusion between politics and business, which is greater due to the protection of the regime rather than one’s own ability.

If it wasn’t for his father’s halo, he wouldn’t even be the owner of a hole-in-the-wall shop.

This bad reputation stuck like a tag.

It’s the exact opposite type of Jepung-ho.

In fact, after the destruction began, the two responded completely differently.

One became a leader even in death, and the other became a mockery of the riotous soldiers.

What kind of person is the chairman of the chaebol in question?

“INFP? INFP?”

Park Cheol-ju suddenly pushed his face in and made a strange noise.

“?”

“Aren’t you an INFP?”

“What is it?”

“Don’t you know the MBTI?”

I have vaguely heard

Did you say personality type test?

It is another pseudoscience that is no different from personality classification by zodiac sign and personality classification by blood type.

At least, it is not a topic that the author of the chaebol chairman will bring up from the beginning.

“You look like an INFP? Right?”

“No, I don’t know what that is.”

“I am an ENFP. A witty activist! spark! That is my personality.”

The moment I saw him smiling innocently and reciting 21st century superstitions innocently, I thought for a moment that this person might be a middle school student wearing a chaebol president skin.

“Ha, they say that INFPs and ENFPs don’t get along, but it seems to be true. There is nothing to come.”

What was the look in your eyes the day before?

Could it be that he wasn’t wary of me, but was measuring the type according to my personality type test?

“Would you like to take a minute and try this?”

Park Cheol-ju held out the tablet to me.

Free Personality Test (MBTI) 16 Types

“Try it.”

“no.”

“Try it just once. You have nothing to lose, right?”

“I don’t like it.”

Why is this person like this?

When I showed displeasure, he suddenly pulled back and smiled while pointing at me with both index fingers.

“As expected, I’m an INFP!”

This was Park Cheol-ju.

*

“Chairman, he’s been like that since he was bombarded.”

The detailed story was continued by Park Cheol-joo’s son-in-law.

“You were cheerful before, but you’ve become brighter.”

“It looks like you ate a lot of cod roe.”

“?”

“no. Please continue.”

The son-in-law of Park Cheol-joo, Seong-jun Seong-jun, seemed to be a very strict person.

Looking at me with open eyes and not making a sound, this person? If you see me pretending to say that.

But my jokes are such an orderly that it will cause such a childish reaction.

At least Ji Young-hee, who was next to her, laughed softly.

After the atmosphere subsided, Seong-jun Seong-jun continued.

“Please escort me to the Chinese border area. I don’t think there’s much danger except for the mutation dog.”

I am Chinese

I’m curious.

What are the thoughts of the Chinese who landed on this land?

How many things are there to do business with Koreans?

“I plan to give you fuel as well as food. 10 hours a week. We will also provide medical services. There are also specialists. Get a checkup right now!”

“A specialist?”

This is a bit appetizing.

But the biggest reason I accepted the offer is gold.

As far as I know, Kim Pil-seong is a hunter that surpasses the old Hunter standard A-class.

He has accumulated considerable experience and even has hunter equipment in his hands.

The soldiers I worked with were not ordinary bets.

Although they hide their true colors under plain clothes, I am convinced that they are soldiers.

It also has considerable experience on the front lines.

Maybe he was a legionnaire enlisted.

When faced with such a group, Gold literally turns into dog meat.

Of course, it is true that curiosity about the Chinese also played a large part in my decision.

I took the SUV and headed to the junction area.

The tangent area was a reclaimed land with a zombie-infested city to the south and a deep bay that looked like a river to the north.

The Chinese turned on the headlights from a distance in a converted SUV.

The red flag on the car reminded me of the boring past.

“be careful. You don’t know what they’re going to do.”

Drones from the two camps looked at each other.

Are there ambushes and dangerous equipment.

After a long search, the two vehicles collided.

Unlike me, Pilseong Kim spoke fluent Chinese with a soldier in a tattered military uniform.

Soon the two men clashed fists.

Food and oil came and went from this side, and heavy equipment that was saved on a forklift from the other side.

The equipment was so heavy that the 3.5 truck stumbled.

I know aircraft engines are big, but they seemed way too big for a 15-passenger jet.

A fluke from the bay knocked down the planks surrounding the equipment.

In the exposed spot, there was a simple cone-shaped lump of metal.

not the engine

the engine.

“ah.”

i think i know what

I had to look away at the same time and pretend I didn’t see it.

It had to be.

The shape of the thing the Chinese handed over was close to a nuclear bomb.
