Episode 489
Chanyeol was crouching down, biting his trembling fingernails.
Mr. Kim, standing next to him, was also anxious.
It was fortunate that I came back just before I started sewing.
If this difficult task had been done by Chanyeol’s hands, Daewoong would have died without a doubt.
Meanwhile, Su-ah was calmly stitching up her wound.
She was familiar with sewing, having been in charge of mending blankets, pillows, and clothes throughout her stay in paradise.
But sewing cloth and sewing people are two completely different things.
‘This is a blanket. It’s a blanket, not a person.’
Even though I kept practicing self-hypnosis, I couldn’t help but feel my fingertips tremble.
The reason the two people who had gone ahead returned was because of Daeung’s scream.
It was a mountain where it was difficult for sounds to travel far, but it was audible because the surroundings were so quiet.
Looking back, it was truly a miracle.
Every time the two people lost their bearings, screams with something in their mouths were heard one after another.
Just like the breadcrumbs scattered by Hansel and Gretel.
Thanks to those screaming breadcrumbs, the four were miraculously reunited.
And that too at the incredible timing when Chanyeol was just about to start sewing.
Su-ah breathes a sigh of relief after cutting the thread with scissors.
Thanks to the stitches being better than expected, the bleeding has also subsided.
Mr. Kim, seeing that sight, closes his eyes and clenches both his fists.
The feeling of maddening anxiety turned into pleasure and enveloped my entire body as soon as I overcame the crisis.
But it wasn’t over yet.
It was dangerous to leave it like this since there was already a lot of blood loss.
Su-ah, who was rummaging through her bag, takes out a drop of sap.
Then Chanyeol, startled, asked with wide eyes.
“When did you get this?”
“You’re escaping with the determination to die, so how could you only pack simple things? You just grabbed whatever you could get your hands on.”
“By the way… have you ever given an intravenous injection?”
“No. Of course not.”
“You can’t just put it anywhere.”
“Have you ever tried drawing blood? You poke the part where your arm folds. Some people have done it on the back of their hands too, which is hard to see. Let’s see… … .”
Su-ah pressed Dae-woong’s arm with her fingertips.
The appearance was so natural that I doubted his original occupation.
Until I saw the subsequent reaction.
“… Everyone says this when they go to the hospital. Why on earth do they press like this? Do you know?”
“No. I’m only good at handling machines, I don’t know anything about people.”
“I guess I should just do it on the back of my hand. I must have used so much force that the veins are standing out so disgustingly.”
A thick needle pricked the back of his hand, but Daewoong didn’t react at all.
“Brother, aren’t you sick?”
“Ugh. You kept poking me so much that I can’t feel anything.”
“No. Not the stomach. I just stabbed the back of my hand.”
“…I know, kid.”
Su-ah, who had been listening to the somewhat absurd conversation, said while looking at the dripping sap.
“The medicine is working well. I guess I injected it correctly.”
“Oh, sis. Do you have talent?”
At that moment, the two people were having a touching conversation.
Mr. Kim’s face turned pale as he looked around from a few steps away.
Because I discovered a group of people between the tree branches in the distance.
Among them, the one holding a pistol and wandering around was none other than Raon.
The only fortunate thing is that the direction of progress is different.
Mr. Kim, who approached in one step, covers his lips with his finger.
“Shhh… We’re being pursued. We need to move now.”
Hearing those words, Chanyeol grabbed the rifle while carrying Sua’s bag.
Mr. Kim also took Daewoong’s rifle and checked the magazine.
“Chanyeol, how many steps are left?”
Chanyeol handed over a spare magazine he took out of his vest.
“I hope I never have to use up all of this magazine.”
“Yes, that’s right. Daewoong, can you move?”
“I’ll try. But what about this sap? It shouldn’t be below my arm.”
“Oh, that’s true. What should I do, Sister?”
Su-ah, who was asked the question, wondered if this was something to be worried about.
He was immediately caught by his pursuers and was in danger of being shot.
I’m worried that the sap will settle below my arm.
“As soon as possible… … .”
Suah wrapped the long ringer cord around Daewoong’s arm.
Then he tore off the tape and attached the body of the sap to Daewoong’s neck.
“Okay? Let’s go.”
As Su-ah supported Dae-woong with all her might, Mr. Kim, who was in the lead, took the lead.
I didn’t know where this road would lead, but I knew for sure that I had to go in the opposite direction from my pursuers.
While three people were moving forward, one step at a time, with difficulty.
Chanyeol watched Raon’s movements from the rear.
He was a really bad guy.
I don’t know why I showed up so late, but I almost got caught off guard because I was letting my guard down.
If he was caught here, Chanyeol had no intention of dying comfortably.
Even if I go, I will definitely kill Raon.
I was thinking of taking him as my companion on the journey to the afterlife, if only to avoid creating a second or third Kim Chan-yeol.
At that moment, Chanyeol, who had been watching his pursuers slowly moving away, let out a sigh of relief and turned around.
Something completely unexpected happened.
Su-ah, who was supporting Dae-woong, misstepped.
It seemed as if it couldn’t overcome the weight difference of more than double.
“ah!”
When Su-ah fell, it was natural that Dae-woong, who was leaning on her, also fell.
But the place it fell was a large tree.
I wonder if it would be okay if I lost at least some weight.
The birds sitting on the trees flew up at the impact of the heavy body hitting them.
Chanyeol’s confused gaze turned towards his pursuers who were barely visible and far away.
“Over there!”
“Move quickly! Move quickly!”
A familiar voice was heard through the thick trees.
It was a moment when I could feel my heartbeat pounding wildly past the roof of my mouth and into my ear holes.
Chanyeol took off his bag, gave the rifle to Suah, and helped Daewoong up.
“Sister. You don’t need anything else. Just hold the gun and follow the old man and run unconditionally.”
“you?”
“I’ll carry you. Hurry up!”
As soon as Chanyeol finished speaking, he quickly picked Daewoong up.
Although he was not a small man, it was difficult for him to carry Daeung on his back.
But now is the time to unleash your superhuman strength.
He started running frantically, with Mr. Kim and Su-ah ahead of him.
“What are you doing! Run!”
Ping! Ping!
A stray bullet that passed my ear got stuck in a tree.
With every step I take, a weight weighing down my whole body feels like my thighs are going to break.
But there was no other way.
Even if we stop here and engage in combat, we’ll all die anyway.
I had to run as far as I could, even if it meant becoming a hunchback.
Ping! Ping!
“Chanyeol, leave me now.”
Even as bullets whizzed by, Daewoong continued to persuade Chanyeol.
“I can’t throw it away, so if you can, roll over and get away!”
“I don’t have the strength to do that.”
“Then at least keep your mouth shut!”
Chanyeol ran desperately.
If there is a God, and if he takes pity on the few humans left, please help him just this once.
The only religious activities I’ve done in my life are wandering around here and there, drawn by Choco Pies.
I prayed and prayed that from now on I would live a life of prayer and gratitude to God.
How much longer did he run like that?
When the backs of Kim and Su-ah, who were walking ahead, started to disappear one by one, starting from the bridge.
Chanyeol gritted his teeth and swore.
“Fuck, this is just too much!”
It’s crazy to run on flat ground while carrying this heavy body.
They said it was an answer to prayer, but it turned out to be a downhill slope.
I was so shocked I was speechless.
Suddenly, the priest’s voice lingers in my head.
The moment you feel abandoned by God is the moment when you are receiving God’s full attention.
So, please don’t give up before you even take the test.
Chanyeol, who reached the bottom of the hill, grits his teeth and turns around.
Special measures were needed because it was impossible to go down the ramp while carrying Daeung.
“Hold on tight, you can strangle me. Don’t ever let go. If your weight shifts backwards, you’ll roll over and die before you can do anything.”
“…okay.”
Then he lay flat on his stomach and began crawling backwards down the slope on all fours.
It was such a desperate struggle that even God would be moved to tears and unable to watch.
When I think of my pursuers running towards me on two feet, I feel like giving up.
Chanyeol didn’t give up until the end.
Even when I was left alone in a field of fallen leaves and faced a wild boar, and even when I licked a tree soaked in rainwater to survive.
The only thought in his head was to live.
I don’t know what will be at the end of this tough life, but as long as I have my breath, I must do something.
Kim Chan-yeol was that kind of person.
“Ugh!”
The fingernails that had been holding onto the tree roots split open and blood oozed out.
I stumbled and fell, but I supported my center of gravity with my knees and got a bruise.
But even in the midst of the pain of flesh being torn and fingernails splitting, the light in his eyes remained vivid.
Suddenly tears came to my eyes.
It wasn’t because I was sick.
It was a desperate plea for anyone to please help.
Right then.
“Found it!”
“No need to capture them! Just kill them all!”
They were pursuers.
and…….
Finally, Chanyeol received an answer to his earnest prayers.
The pursuers lined up on the hill, guns raised.
They, who had been standing proudly, fell down, spurting blood.
A familiar, yet familiar noise coming from somewhere not far away.
Pok! Pok! Pok!
At the same time, numerous gunshots began to pour in from various directions.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Raon, who was shot in the arm, retreats using the body of the falling manager as a shield.
The heads of the enemies that were rushing in like a tidal wave crashed to the ground in no particular order.
Meanwhile, Chanyeol was stubbornly crawling down the slope backwards.
With a face full of tears, he kept repeating the same words.
“… Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.”
And when his feet finally touched the ground, he collapsed, exhausted, carrying Daeung on his back.
How long had he been lying there in that position?
The gunshots that had been ringing loudly were finally dying down.
Every time I exhale, thick clouds of dust rise up, blurring my vision.
Suddenly, the sound of the noise machine I heard earlier comes to mind.
no way…….
No, that can’t be.
He left his group a long time ago.
Thud thud!
But why does this unfamiliar sound of footsteps feel so warm?
Tears welled up in Chanyeol’s eyes as he heard the voice that followed.
“Hey, Bamtol. Long time no see?”
The protagonist with a voice that speaks in a cold tone.
When I slowly turned my head, Yeonhee was standing there holding a large rifle.
Chanyeol’s face began to distort like a child’s with joy and gratitude.
“Wow, your hair has grown a lot.”
Could it be the excitement of regaining a piece of the group that I had been missing?
Yeonhee’s eyes became moist as she spoke as if nothing had happened.
“…how have you been doing?”
At that warm question, Chanyeol buried his head in the dirt and cried for a long time.
“But what is this big thing? Why does it look like this?”
Yeonhee asked, pointing to Daewoong, who was lying limp like a corpse.
It was quite strange to see ropes wrapped around his arms and sap sticking to his neck.
Mr. Kim, who was approaching from behind and listening to the whole story from Yoo-kyung, shouted with an anxious face.
“… First, we have to catch Raon. We can’t let that human return to paradise alive. He’ll definitely try to blame someone. Innocent people will die!”
Yeonhee, who was crouching down and wiping Chanyeol’s tears, took it easy.
“Oh, don’t worry about that kid. I’ll go find him.”
“Yes? No. We’ll just gather all the troops outside. This number is not enough.”
Mr. Kim, who was counting the number of Yeonhee’s group approaching one by one, spoke in a voice that was burning with emotion.
On the other hand, Yeonhee shrugs her shoulders with an indifferent expression.
“Because a fight isn’t about numbers. Let’s see, let’s start with taking care of the injured. Oppa, carry this guy.”
“What? How do I carry this?”
Se-yoon Oh, who had been approaching with a frown, stepped back in fright.
Then, Kay, who appeared with Hanshin, drove the wedge in.
“For your information, I absolutely can’t do it. Hanshin hyung has to take care of Yoo-kyung, and Yeon-hee noona is petite so she can pass. So it’s just you, hyung?”
“Oh, what’s wrong? You’re saying all the right things.”
“If you pretend, it’s pretend.”
Kay smiled and winked.
On the other hand, Oh Se-yoon still looked displeased.
“I can’t do it. Hey, tell me to carry a bear instead. What is this? You’re just hanging there.”
At that moment, they were talking while pointing at Daewoong who had collapsed next to Chanyeol.
Daewoong, who was thought to have fainted, slowly turned his head.
“…I can hear everything.”
“Huh? What, you’re awake?”
“Yes. I’m awake and can hear well.”
“ah…….”
Yeonhee let out a single groan and scratched her forehead with an awkward face.
