Infected - Chapter 564



Only Noblemtl

Side story episode 51

The next day.

The conditionally released Spotted returned to the organization.

We had a lot of discussions with finances and the direction going forward was decided.

The problem was how to find out where the organization’s top brass was meeting.

Although he stood out among his peers, he was nothing more than a throwaway character in the organization.

To stand out, you need something to raise your stakes.

No good method came to mind.

There was no one at the base I arrived at while thinking about this and that.

Squeak!

As we opened the hut at the entrance to town, smoky smoke rose up.

It seemed like it had been several days since he left.

As he slowly looked around the room, something caught his eye.

It was a small piece of paper that was stepped on at the tip of a foot.

If someone else saw it, they would have thought it was graffiti and thrown it away.

But the polka dot knew how to decipher the code.

To become a spy, you had to be able to decipher various codes.

Because spies cannot communicate openly with each other behind enemy lines.

The spotted boy who picked up the paper stands there dumbfounded and tries to figure out the contents.

“Closing all bases and gathering at the rear… … .”

The term ‘rear’ in an organization has more than a simple meaning.

Behind numerous faction organizations, there are small strongholds, and behind these strongholds, there are several forward outposts called rear bases.

And behind the outposts are the leaders and their private soldiers who operate individually.

A major and 10,000 troops were about to attack the safe zone under the mountain a while ago.

They were the troops that had just departed from the outpost.

Of course, not all of them belong to an organization.

The majority of those stationed at the outpost are outsiders, and they keep the interior under control until special orders are given.

The families of the organization’s members.

There is a reason why they follow the organization’s orders.

Because the base has been completely taken over.

Now, even they themselves couldn’t tell who had bought them.

It all came crashing down in an instant.

“Ah, when are we going to get there again… … .”

The spotted man swept his tired face.

It was quite a distance to walk without a car.

Since we had to cross the regional border, it would take at least a full day of walking.

But I had to go.

For Eugene’s sake, and for the sake of the men who died by my hands.

“Fuck… … .”

Swear words flow from the mouth of the spotted man as he recalls them.

Of course, I had good friends during my training days.

But by the time the training was over, I was a completely different person.

We can no longer trust each other.

Because the first training I received as a spy was the habit of being suspicious of others.

Repeated mental education has destroyed all human relationships.

To the dotty boy, Eugene and his squad members were new friends.

Eugene in particular was like that.

Eugene loved and cared for him like a younger brother, to the point that it even made up for the education he had received over a long period of time.

“If I had known this would happen, I would have slept well.”

Spotted, his eyes wide open from tossing and turning all night, came out of the cabin.

From now on, it was a march.

I had to walk and walk while drinking as much water as possible from my bag.

When an organization abandons a stronghold, it leaves behind not a single drop of water.

And that’s not all.

They would destroy or move away all the remaining supplies in the area.

It was a similar method to burning down houses and fields and then rushing into the city in ancient warfare.

Therefore, it meant that wherever you went, there was nothing to eat or drink.

A few hours later.

It was when they reached a small town along a country road that the spotted owl noticed the stalking.

Every time I looked back, he was hiding his presence, which meant he was well-trained.

The spotted dog looked back at the blurred crosswalk.

Then he just stood there without any reaction.

How many minutes passed like that?

Someone appeared around the corner of the building right in front of us.

She was a girl with short hair. She looked much younger than me.

The polka dot looked at the girl with puzzled eyes.

I can barely sense the presence of others, even though I have an innate sense of smell.

I couldn’t believe that little girl did it.

The two stared at each other in silence on the empty street.

The spotted one asked.

“…what?”

But the answer that comes back is not easy.

“What are you?”

“you?”

The polka dot burst into laughter.

This was because a girl who looked like a high school student was speaking informally to me.

I wonder if finances felt like this too.

“Yeah, you.”

“You followed me, Inma.”

“You didn’t follow me? We’re just going in the same direction.”

“… This is ridiculous.”

First of all, he was not a member of the organization.

If he was a member of the organization, he would have asked for the password exchanged between spies.

Who could it be? Is it perhaps someone who has a separate finance?

“Did you send it from Seoul?”

“No.”

The girl shook her head with a dull face.

“Then what? Why are you following me?”

“I told you not to follow me, is this kid deaf… … .”

“young?”

The moment the polka-dotted face tilted slightly, the girl’s two legs kicked the ground.

It was a speed that was unbelievable even when seen with one’s own eyes.

“… … !”

The polka dot quickly changed direction and distanced itself.

Even though she wasn’t holding any weapons in her hands, the girl overwhelmed him with just her nimble movements.

Then he prepared to strike right away.

‘eight?’

The spotted man, who was about to draw his dagger, hesitated and pulled his arm away.

At that moment, my chin turned, following the inside of my elbow and my chin.

I allowed three attacks without even realizing it.

however…….

“Ugh! Keuk!”

I couldn’t breathe.

The force was too shocking to come from a skinny girl wearing an oversized gray hoodie.

“Now, just a moment!”

The girl who was about to roundhouse kick him stopped at his desperate gesture.

“What? Already?”

“No, wait a minute… … .”

After groaning in pain for a long time, the spotted one finally got up.

“Ah, shit! Why are you hitting me all of a sudden and making a fuss?”

“Shouldn’t it be more accurate?”

“No! Say it, say it! Surrender!”

The spotted man threw the dagger to the floor and stepped back, raising both arms.

The girl who saw that tilted her head with a cute smile.

“Okay, fine. Let’s talk about it.”

“Oh, what the hell are you?”

“Not you, but sister.”

“…what?”

The girl repeated the same words with her mouth shut.

“Sister, sister.”

“Why are you my older sister?”

“How old are you?”

“Twenty-three.”

“I am four years older than you.”

“What the hell are you talking about… … .”

The polka dots were so absurd that they couldn’t even laugh.

To anyone who looked at her, the girl looked like she was in her mid to late teens.

“You’re my older sister.”

The spotted owl, who had been observing for a moment, swallowed dry saliva.

If I continued talking back here, it might have been dangerous.

When you don’t know what’s cool, you burn with passion regardless of who you are, but once you reach a certain level, you quickly notice the gap between you and your opponent.

From that perspective, the girl in front of me was far superior to me.

Heaven. Or maybe even beyond.

“Sister.”

“That’s right.”

The girl took on an unusually solemn expression, then strode over to him and tapped him on the shoulder.

“What is your name?”

“Spotted.”

“Spotted? That’s its name?”

“Everyone just calls me that. What’s your, no, sister’s name?”

“June Flower.”

“It was a long time ago… … .”

“Isn’t it pretty? I know. Where are you going?”

The polka dot blinked.

It was impossible to have a normal conversation at all.

“Why do you ask that?”

“I’m asking because we’re going in the same direction.”

“There is something like that. I can’t say it here. Even if they kill me.”

“oh…….”

Wolhwa took out a pistol from his side.

“Even like this?”

“Okay, wait a minute. Hey, no, sis. I don’t know what happened, but I didn’t do anything wrong. So let’s talk.”

“You said you couldn’t speak even if you died? That’s why you tried to kill me?”

“I can tell you, but before that, I need to know where you came from.”

“He’s a lot more secretive than he looks. Okay. I’ll tell you everything. I’m from the northern part of Gyeonggi Province. And… … .”

She pulled out her dagger and stabbed herself in the back of her hand.

Spotted’s mouth opens wide as he sees the dagger protruding from his palm.

“What are you doing? Are you crazy?”

Instead of answering, Wolhwa pulled out her dagger.

Then, the wound that had been bleeding profusely healed in an instant.

“… … !”

It was a scene that was hard to believe even after seeing it with my own eyes.

“Uh, uh, what did you do?”

“It’s your turn to speak now. I need to hear something so I can speak too.”

And then Wolhwa shrugged her shoulders.

On the other hand, Dotball was barely holding on to his senses.

I’ve seen so many different types of zombies and humans in my life.

This was the first time something like this had happened.

“I am…….”

How and where should I begin to explain this?

“No, before that, whose side are you on, sister?”

“Me? Um… …. I’m on Yeonhee’s side?”

“Yeonhee? Who is that?”

“Don’t you know unnie Yeonhee?”

Suspicion formed in Wolhwa’s eyes.

“Where does that person belong?”

“seoul.”

“under…….”

Only then did the spotted man let out a sigh.

“I see. I also… … .”

“So what were you doing here?”

“I was going back to the organization.”

The dotted line briefly explained what had happened.

“Wow! Isn’t it cool?”

“… It’s not that great. You could die.”

“Let’s do it together!”

“What are you doing together? Are you kidding me or for real?”

“I’m serious.”

“If I go back alone now, I’ll probably die, so how can I take someone else with me? Do you think our organization is some kind of joke?”

“Then I’ll just die here.”

Wolhwa aimed the gun nonchalantly.

The attitude was so routine that it was even harder to gauge its sincerity.

“No, I really said that won’t work!”

“What’s wrong? You know the password. Just tell me. You’re all part of a guerrilla organization, so you won’t recognize each other anyway.”

“That’s true, but the place we’re going now is a gathering place for various organizations, so each person has a designated affiliation.”

“It’s not like there’s no way at all.”

“doesn’t exist.”

The spotted owl turned its head like a sparrow.

“Just grab one. Someone my age.”

“Where? Everyone has returned now and there is no one left.”

“Just go and do it. Just go.”

“No… … . That’s not like it’s a playground for kids… … .”

“I know you think so, because I have my own thoughts. If you think even a little differently, I’ll twist your balls.”

“I’ve been wondering this for a while now. Could you please stop saying such horrible things with that expression on your face?”

“It’s my charm.”

“after…….”

The spotted one took the lead, shaking his head.

It doesn’t look like it was sent by Jaejae.

I couldn’t help but sigh at how I ended up getting entangled like this.

I had a feeling something was going seriously wrong.

*???*???*

We arrived at the outpost just as the sun was setting.

There were huge crowds of people moving around the narrow city streets and large schools.

There were more than a hundred guards at the guard post at the entrance to the school and guarding the nearby shops.

That wasn’t all.

Long before we arrived at the outpost, we felt human eyes on us.

Building rooftops, windows, etc… … .

There must have been several radio transmissions long before the two arrived at the school.

Around the time I was approaching the guard post.

Wolhwa, who had been walking silently, suddenly started running madly towards the guard post.

“Why, why?”

Dotted Bird called out urgently, but Wolhwa left without even answering.

It’s not like we really discussed anything.

“Ha, I don’t know anymore… … .”

The spotted one walked away, shaking his head.

Yeah. He must be thinking about something, so he does that.

The moon and fire he saw was one of two things.

Either you have a really brilliant mind or you’re just a mindless idiot.

Their actions at the guard post would be the measure of that.

however.

“… … ?”

Wolhwa exchanged a few words with the sentries and then passed through the guard post.

It was almost like a breakthrough through an automatic door.

The curious Dotted Cat hurriedly walked forward.

The sentries blocked the way.

“Give me the password.”

“What did that woman say?”

“I told you to listen to the detailed explanation. I really need to go to the bathroom.”

“…yes?”

“password.”

“under…….”

The spotted owl lowered its head and looked up at the distant sky.
