Infected - Chapter 30
Only Noblemtl
Episode 29
Anna, who arrived later, asked.
“What’s wrong? Is there anyone inside?”
When Beomsik nodded, Anna buried her face in the crack of the door and whispered pleadingly.
“If you have something to eat, you can share as much as you want. I robbed the entire supermarket here. Please, please open the door. You guys must be feeling bad about this!”
“Get out of the way!”
“What are you going to do?”
Beomsik ran towards him holding a fire extinguisher.
“I’m going to break the glass! Then the humans inside will become food instead.”
It was a crazy idea.
Was this person really this rough?
Beomsik’s eyes were not in his right mind.
Anna turned around to try to stop him from getting excited.
Jae-Jae and Young-Man pushed several carts towards the infected and then ran towards them with Hyun-Soo and Chae-Min.
The distance was so close that I had no choice but to abandon the cart.
That was when.
Bam!
The door of the restaurant, which had been tightly closed, opened.
At the same time, Beomsik and Anna, who had been struggling, were led inside by someone’s hand.
The one who grabbed the two people was a middle-aged man with a bulging belly.
There were three more people inside the restaurant.
But the man who was looking outside made a gesture as if he was about to hurriedly close the door.
Anna screamed desperately.
“There’s still more!”
The man who was about to close the door hesitated and couldn’t do anything.
As the sounds of the infected grew closer, the man finally pulled open the door.
The man’s growing eyes seemed to show the situation in the hallway.
If the door closes, the rest of the group will die.
Beomsik and Anna flew towards the closing door.
At that very moment.
widely!
A hand like a pot lid came in through the crack in the door.
Then he opened the door roughly.
The owner of that hand was none other than Jae-jae.
After that, Young-man, Chae-min, and Hyeon-su came in one after another.
But then a problem arose.
The man’s face began to distort as he tried to close the door.
As expected.
The infected person’s arm had squeezed through the crack in the door.
The arms quickly swelled to two, three, four, and grabbed the man by the nape of his neck and collar.
The group that saw the sight late hurriedly approached.
It’s late.
Their teeth were already tearing at the man’s neck.
A scream mixed with resentment could be heard like tinnitus beneath the blood gushing out like a fountain.
Is it an attachment to life?
Even in the midst of all this, the man did not let go of the door.
If we left it like that, it would all be over.
The moment the man became infected, it was clear that the restaurant would become hell.
The three people with him screamed and cried.
“Fuck!”
Beomsik, who was breathing heavily, ran out swearing.
Then he started pushing the man who was holding the door and resisting the attack out.
As Beomsik’s power increased, the man’s eyes became redder and redder.
I held on till the very end, till the very end.
The man must have known very well what would happen if he continued to waste time like this.
“Get out! Get out!”
Beomsik screamed loudly.
I tried pushing and cursing.
But it didn’t budge at all.
Blood flowed from the man’s mouth.
“Phew!”
The man’s body, which had been holding on like a tree, was suddenly pushed outward.
A large hand joined next to Beomsik’s hand.
It was finances.
The man could not overcome the monstrous power of finance.
The two joined forces as if they had made a promise.
The attachment to life that had been holding onto the handle gradually lost its strength, and the eyes filled with resentment also lost their light.
Sizzle!
It was the sound of the man’s palm being pushed away while holding the glass door.
That was the end of it.
The man disappeared out the door along with the infected.
Beomsik closed the door, and Jaejae turned the lock.
Crunch!
I stood with my back to the door, panting heavily.
Sweat poured down like rain.
The man’s screams were slowly, slowly fading away.
The sound of the infected moving like a pack of dogs also died down.
The two who were listening closed their eyes.
It was an inevitable choice.
If we left it as is… … .
Finance looked around the restaurant.
Everyone was just swallowing their saliva every now and then.
No one judged what was happening before their eyes.
No, I couldn’t judge.
Because it was inevitable.
Soon, the three people’s eyes met.
There were two men and a middle-aged woman.
One of the men glared at the group and the woman as if he was going to kill them.
That gaze was so creepy that it was uncomfortable to look at it.
Young-man came forward and patted her shoulder.
“I feel sorry for the person who was with me… … .”
“Get your hands off me. Don’t come near me.”
The man who had struck Youngman’s hand whispered harshly.
It was a whisper I had to make because of the infected people.
The sharp gaze soon turned to the woman.
“Didn’t I tell you not to open it? Didn’t you persuade your brother by saying things like you’d regret it or something?”
“I, I didn’t know it would turn out like this.”
Tears welled up in the woman’s eyes.
“If you were going to pretend to be human like that, you should have opened the door yourself. And it should have been the lady who died, not you. Isn’t that right? Isn’t that right, you fucking hypocrite?”
“I’m sorry… I really, really didn’t expect it to turn out like this… … .”
The woman stepped away in tears.
In the quiet restaurant, only her sobbing and the man’s breathing could be heard.
Another man, unable to stand by, stepped forward.
“Okay, stop it. It’s not like the chef will come back alive like this.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. If you had just stayed still, nothing would have happened. It’s all that idiot’s fault.”
“Stop it. How many people do you think are alive outside? You heard the radio, too. Is the chef the only one who died? What’s the point of arguing about right and wrong in this situation?”
“Whether it meant something or not, I clearly told you not to open it… … .”
The excited man couldn’t continue speaking.
This was because Beomsik appeared in an instant, grabbed the back of his neck, and pushed him against the wall.
A man with his throat suffocated struggled to escape.
But the more this happened, Beomsik’s hand pressed harder and harder.
“I did not open the door.”
The man, out of breath, frantically pushed Beomsik’s face and neck with his palms.
Even as his face was being squeezed, Beomsik didn’t take his hands off his neck.
The man’s struggles grew more and more violent, and the fear of losing his breath soon developed into a seizure-like rebellion.
That was it.
Jae-jae grabbed Beom-sik’s arm.
“Ugh! Gulp! Gulp! Ugh… … .”
All sorts of liquids flowed from the face of the man who had fallen to the floor.
He was rubbing his face on the floor, covered in tears and snot.
If I had left it a little longer, it could have been dangerous.
Jae-jae, who had grabbed Beom-sik’s arm, stared blankly into his eyes.
It wasn’t a normal eye.
It was a dangerous gaze I had never seen before.
But the finances said nothing.
He just holds my arm and stares at me quietly.
Beomsik didn’t even shake his hand.
The two looked at each other like that for a long time.
and…….
Beomsik’s eyes shook first, then he roughly shook Jaejae’s hand away and turned around.
Every action was laced with poison.
Those watching felt like they were walking on thin ice.
The very aura he gave off was different from that of an ordinary person.
Every step and every gesture was filled with the murderous intent that he would do something at any moment.
“If only you had lived, if only you had lived… … .”
Finance muttered quietly.
Beomsik walked aimlessly around the restaurant with his hands on his hips, as if his anger was not going away.
Then he roughly kicked the tables and chairs.
Boom boom boom!
A loud noise filled the restaurant.
The infected people outside had been screaming ever since they heard the man coughing.
It made a loud noise and would continue to knock on the glass for a while without going away.
It was a good thing the blinds were down, if they hadn’t they would have already smashed the door shut.
But Beomsik didn’t stop.
The anger that had been surging like a storm finally ended when he threw the table into the kitchen.
It wasn’t over until the kitchen utensils were smashed and the lunch box was overturned.
Everyone watched with bated breath.
What did you expect?
People can’t be rewritten.
Did you think that the world’s best Lee Beom-sik would be so gentle and soft?
Finance smiled bitterly.
“By the way, this is a big deal. You’ve already come in… but how do you plan on getting out?”
Young-man asked Jae-jae in a casual manner.
It was an attempt to change the subject.
“I don’t know, for now.”
“I have time, but I don’t have a good plan.”
Time didn’t matter.
The important thing is that all the carts are outside and at least a few dozen infected people are surrounding the entrance.
Above all, the inside of the restaurant was too humid and hot.
Even just breathing still made me feel like the lid was going to pop open because of the discomfort index.
And it was clear that I would soon start to tire out.
Jae-jae muttered to himself as he looked outside through the blinds.
“Still… I can’t give up those foods.”
“Do you have any good ideas?”
“Well, what do you have? Those two people over there?”
Jae-Na-Na looked at Chae-Min and Hyeon-Su in turn and asked.
But it’s still the case that there is no answer.
Anna’s eyebrows twitched as she was deep in thought.
“How about this? Let’s wait until they get a little farther away from the door and shoot the firecracker arrows. Just open the door with the arrows loaded and shoot them, then close it again.”
“When did you bring that?”
Youngman’s eyes widened when he saw the firecracker arrow.
That might have been a definite solution in the current situation.
“I brought a few just in case. They’re safe.”
“No, that won’t work.”
As Jae-jae shook his head, Anna and Young-man asked as if they had been waiting.
“why?”
“Okay. Why not?”
“The sound is too loud. We haven’t even checked the entire underground yet, so we don’t know where more might pop out. If we’re unlucky, there might be no way out at all.”
“but…….”
Anna had no choice but to agree.
“Let me think about it.”
Finance was hovering around with his arms folded.
The only way out from here is through that door.
Since I had to take food with me no matter what, I couldn’t choose another route even if there were other options.
Then how?
Outside, the infected are swarming, and inside, it’s hot and humid.
If you keep sweating like this, it’s obvious that it’ll get even harder.
Besides, there wasn’t even any water to drink.
There was a water purifier, but unfortunately the water tank it was plugged in was almost empty.
I didn’t know what variables would come up if I didn’t find a surefire way and move quickly.
Every moment was truly a crisis.
Their survival was threatened at every moment, and they had to constantly think of ways to survive while taking a breath.
How long can I endure this?
How long can I live?
As heavy thoughts began to weigh on everyone’s minds, Jae-gye’s eyes began to scan the surroundings busily.
Suddenly he started wandering around the door and pretending to measure the length.
Then he swung the hammer back and forth.
This time, he stretched out his arm while holding the hammer, measured the distance, then suddenly turned around and headed towards the messy kitchen.
Finance carefully inspected the kitchen supplies with a flashlight.
“Hey, you two over there.”
When Jae-jae called Chae-min and Hyeon-su, the two approached with bewildered faces.
“I guess I’m the older brother, so I’ll talk to you comfortably. Is that okay?”
The two people stared at each other blankly and nodded.
Even if there was a problem, I wouldn’t really want to bring it up.
Who would argue with that big guy?
“Okay, you take this. You said Hyunsoo? You take this.”
Jae-jae smiled with satisfaction as he handed a garlic mortar to Chae-min and a frying pan to Hyun-soo.
At the kitchen entrance, Young-man and Anna were watching them with puzzled faces.
“Let’s all gather here. Lee Beom-sik, you too. I’ll make you feel better.”
Finance called people to try to do something, but there was no answer.
In particular, Beomsik didn’t even pretend to hear.
“Hey, we fought, we fought, right? Are you going to starve to death here because you fought? You have to get out first. If you don’t come, I’ll open that door wide.”
Did it work?
Beomsik, who had been sitting alone in the corner of a dark restaurant, stood up, snorting.
Then, the two men who had been watching reluctantly entered the kitchen.
Infected people
