Infected - Chapter 501



Only Noblemtl

Episode 500

As the finances went down to the basement and opened the thick door, a terrible stench hit my nose.

A brightly lit basement, but which had been pitch black until a few days ago.

There was someone sitting there, looking almost like a pedestrian.

Finance, with the door closed, slowly looked around the room.

The source of the foul smell was a small chamber pot placed in the corner.

The empty cans lined up along the wall also played a part, but they were nothing compared to the excrement.

The eyes of the pedestrian crouching next to the toilet sparkle in the fluorescent light.

Until Choi Hoon brought him, he was just a frightened believer.

Now, it seemed like even if I were thrown onto a deserted island, I would be able to find a way to survive on my own.

Finance, whose nose was twitching, slowly looks at him.

“Did you eat breakfast?”

“Yes. I’ve had diarrhea for three days straight because I’ve been eating the same canned food for three meals a day.”

“There are people who can’t even eat that, kid. Stand up.”

Han Joo-won, the believer who had been captured by Choi Hoon, slowly got up.

“Take it off.”

Although it was understandable to be flustered, Juwon took off the clothes he was wearing one by one.

Then, a body full of lean muscles, torn apart as much as it could be, was revealed under the light.

A satisfied smile appeared on Jaeyui’s lips.

“You worked hard?”

“Yes. I want to go out. You… have to keep your promise.”

“Promise? What promise?”

Juwon’s eyes turned red at the answer that he pretended not to know.

“Eat the food I give you like a dog! If you exercise hard, I’ll let you go!”

“You’re acting like a crazy kid, so why should I let you go?”

Finance counted the empty cans with a disinterested expression.

I calculated the number of days I was locked up and the number of cans I ate, and it turns out I ate about two a day.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I’ve been locked up for so long that I feel like I’m losing my mind! Brother, please let me out. Okay? I’ll get the leader’s head right now!”

“Hey, are you Silmido? Why are you picking the leader’s balls?”

“I’ll do anything you tell me to do, so please just let me out of this room!”

“fizzle…….”

Finance tapped my ear with his index finger.

The basement was completely sealed off except for a small window near the ceiling, so my eardrums felt like they were going to burst every time Juwon shouted.

Anyway, it was a good sign.

Because it was evidence that the poison was high in some form.

Jae-jae, who had come up close to me, took out a wet tissue and wiped my eyes that were covered in boogers.

After removing the eye boogers, Juwon’s face, which had resembled that of an abandoned dog, began to look more human.

“Can you really do anything?”

“Yes. I will do anything.”

“교주 개새끼 해 봐.”

“The border fuck!”

“… Make it smaller.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

Jae-jae slowly walked around Ju-won, who was standing there blankly.

“But you know, I don’t like the idea of ​​cursing the leader you were loyal to just to survive. Doesn’t that seem like too much of a man’s spine?”

“What are you talking about? Anonymous, I won’t let these bastards off easy. They treat me like a dog, and they don’t even show their nose when they know I’ve been kidnapped. I will never forgive them.”

“Will you still curse me if I abandon you later?”

“of course.”

Juwon’s face trembled slightly as he glared.

It seemed like he was quite resentful that he couldn’t hide his emotions even though he knew that if he rushed in, he would lose his bones.

widely!

Jae-jae, who had returned to his back, placed a hand on his shoulder.

“I have no intention of treating you like an anonymous person.”

“Yes? Then stay here… … .”

“No. That’s not what I meant. I’m not going to treat you like a slave and put you in the lead in dangerous work. I’m going to move together with you.”

Juwon didn’t know what to say.

When you lock them up for long periods of time and make them exercise like crazy, and then suddenly you ask them to become your colleagues.

“Aren’t you going to answer?”

“Yes? Oh, yes. Go ahead. Continue.”

“From the moment we leave that door, we’ll be colleagues. Joo Won, what does a colleague mean?”

“Well… I don’t know.”

“How many eyes do you have?”

“yes?”

“How many eyes do you have?”

“There are two gaps.”

“Ears?”

“There are two gaps.”

“What are you wearing?”

“One.”

Finance nodded.

“Why do you have two eyes, both in front?”

Juwon, who had been observing the situation, shook his head.

“I don’t know.”

“… Now, they say they don’t even think about it and don’t know.”

“I really don’t know.”

Finance let out a short snort.

“It means that you have to realize that you can’t do anything alone. No matter how good you are, you are someone who can’t even properly see your own back.”

“Then the ears and mouth… … .”

“Speak less, listen more, and look ahead based on what you hear. Who is the person who can protect you? If you can distinguish that well, you will be successful in life. So, a colleague means someone you can trust and rely on. Do you understand?”

Juwon just blinked with his mouth open.

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“You… trust me?”

“no?”

“Me, who was caught while tailing the center people?”

“Just answer. Are you going to do it or not?”

“I will do it!”

“Oh, this kid is really noisy… … .”

Finance frowned, covering one ear.

But Juwon was already very excited.

A dark basement.

During the day, sunlight would filter in through the small window, but at night, it would be pitch black.

Joo-won was always caught up in pessimistic thoughts.

Now that the anonymous church has found out that I was caught while being followed, I won’t be able to go back.

Even if finances free him, he won’t be able to die gracefully after being exploited in one way or another.

After spending so much time like that, my sense of purpose gradually faded away and only one thing remained.

It was a strong will to do anything to get out of this place.

It was only natural for him to be excited when someone immediately reached out to him and asked him to become his colleague.

Could it be because my emotions suddenly became intense?

All the sadness I had felt came rushing back to me at once, and tears poured out.

It might seem ridiculous to feel this way toward the person who had locked you up, but Juwon was past the age where he could even judge such things.

“Oh, this kid.”

“I’m sorry. I just suddenly felt like this… … .”

Jae-jae, who had been watching Ju-won cry sadly for a long time, silently wiped away his tears.

Then he said, tossing his oily hair.

“Let’s go out, wash up, and change clothes.”

“Yes. But I have a favor to ask.”

“what?”

“Please let me fight against the nameless religion.”

“That’s why I’m going out.”

“Ugh… But, what should I do? I don’t know how to do much.”

“Just do what I tell you.”

“Okay, just order whatever you want.”

In that way, Juwon crossed the threshold he had wanted to cross so badly and went up to the ground.

* * *

After a while.

Raindrops began to fall from the sky.

The rain that had been falling steadily became heavier and heavier, and it poured down so heavily that it washed away all the snow that had piled up in the city center.

Meanwhile, Joo-won, who had finished a long bath, came out after finishing all preparations.

Under the tent in the parking lot, Jaejung, Yeongman, Taesung Lee, and Yuigo and their group were waiting.

Everyone looked surprised at Juwon’s clean-cut appearance.

Young-man, who had been looking him up and down, asked Jae-jae.

“What is this guy good at?”

“Well, I think you said you were good at running. Hey, Han Joo-won. You answer.”

Joo-won, who was stretching with a tense face, puts strength into his eyes.

“I don’t know about that, but I can do anything you ask me to do.”

“Hey, have you been in the military?”

“Oh, that’s a bit of a problem… … .”

“That’s why I asked if you were back.”

“Yes, it is exempt.”

Juwon’s voice slowly crept in as he answered.

“Hmm… I see. That might actually be okay. Since you’re a blank slate, you’ll learn as you’re taught. What did the Nameless Church teach you?”

“He taught me how to use a sword and shoot.”

“Let me give it a shot. Do you see the sign over there?”

Youngman’s finger pointed to a sign a hundred meters away.

Then, Juwon, who had been standing there blankly, turned around and grabbed his rifle.

Young-man tilts his head after seeing the details.

“That’s unfinished business?”

bang!

The result was spot-on.

After finishing shooting, Juwon lowered the gun while adjusting the safety lever.

The finances were equally surprising.

It was just amazing that a guy who had never even served in the military could shoot so instantly with such a stable posture.

“That’s pretty good. No, it’s amazing. Who taught you that?”

“I learned it a few times in the Holy Land, but I haven’t shot it since.”

“Didn’t other people say you did well?”

“You said that, but I thought you were just saying it.”

“Hmm… Anything else?”

“I’m good at running.”

“How many seconds does it take to run 100 meters?”

“It’s the latter half of the 11th hour.”

“What? That fast?”

Youngman’s eyes widened.

Running the 100 meters in over 11 seconds was an athlete-level record back in my school days.

Considering that the highest record in the high school division at the National Sports Festival was in the late 10s, this is an incredible speed.

“But why didn’t you go to the military?”

“My family environment is a bit… … .”

As Juwon scratched his head, Youngman tapped his forehead.

“Oh, I made a mistake. I’m sorry.”

“No, that’s not true. Everyone asks that question. But who is this person?”

Juwon, who discovered Yuigo, changed the subject.

“Similar to you. He was once a member of the Nameless Church, but now he is working to destroy the Nameless Church.”

“Oh, I see.”

The two people understood each other’s situation and greeted each other warmly.

That’s how the introduction with the group came to an end.

Juwon looked around as if looking for someone.

Jaejae asked with a puzzled look on his face after seeing that.

“what’s the matter?”

“Where did Brother Shirasoni go?”

“Shirasoni? Who is that?”

“That… the one who smashed my forehead. I heard his nickname in the unit was Sirasoni.”

As soon as they heard that, gentle laughter spread among the group.

“I’ll be home soon. Why? Do you want to see me?”

“No, that’s impossible. I just asked because I couldn’t see it.”

“Don’t do that already. I haven’t met any truly scary people yet.”

“Yes? Isn’t this the end of our gathering?”

Joo-won looked around at the group standing in the parking lot and asked.

“No. There are some really scary people that Shirasoni can’t even look into the eye with.”

“No, what on earth do you guys do that you can’t even make eye contact with them?”

“There are. Monsters you can’t even imagine.”

The faces of Beom-sik, Jang Li-ming, and the platoon leader flashed through Jae-jae’s smiling mind.

“Now that we’re definitely colleagues, I guess there’s no need to worry too much, right?”

“Well, it’s your ability to become close with those people. It wasn’t easy for us either.”

After that, Juwon continued to ask questions about the group without stopping.

While he was impressed by Anna’s bow, he made a fuss with Lee Tae-seong, asking if she really came from North Korea.

At that moment, a priest who had come out to the parking lot late broke through the cheerful atmosphere and looked for finances.

“Big brother.”

“yes.”

“Come this way for a moment… … .”

The priest who had taken the finances to the corner of the parking lot turned around with a serious face.

He was standing alone outside the tent, and his priestly robes were soaking wet, but he didn’t seem to notice at all.

Jaegye, who had hurriedly pulled him into the tent, asked while shaking off the rainwater.

“Why is that?”

“I don’t feel well. Do you really have to go today?”

“Yes. I don’t have time. Why is that?”

The priest looked anxious, wringing his hands in an inappropriate manner.

“It’s a feeling that’s hard to put into words. Whenever I feel this way, something always happens. If you must go, take me with you. I think I’ll feel better that way.”

Finance shook his head.

“If it were possible, I would have done so from the beginning. Why would I take the one I locked up underground? I want to keep at least one more person in the center. Of course, the nameless sect has not made any direct moves, but if they are targeting the center, today, when we are split in half, would be the best time. Priest, please stay here and fill my empty spot.”

“How can I fill the void left by you, brother? I beg you to take me with you. Or would you rather leave Brother Lee Tae-seong behind?”

As he went to such lengths, the finances were enveloped in an atmosphere of uncertainty.

Because this has never happened before.

Like most people, I was superstitious about my finances.

Because there are things in the world that happen that cannot be explained logically.

As we live, we all have at least one memory like that.

Jae-jae, who was worried, called Young-man and Tae-seong Lee.

The two people who were talking thought deeply for a while and soon came to the same conclusion.

“Comrade, I will guard this place tomorrow, so take the priest with you. It’s not like you’re going to fight anyway.”

“I think so too. This is the first time a priest has said something like this. If nothing happens, that’s fortunate. As Lee Tae-seong said, we’re not going to fight, but to educate, so it’ll be okay.”

That was when.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A tremendous roar shook the heavens and the earth, and yellow lights flashed across the darkening sky.

It was a very ominous noon, even the weather.

Infected people
