Episode 114

– Sir! We’re in big trouble.

Hoyoung’s urgent voice was heard through the satellite communicator.

Bomi said in a playful voice.

“Hoyoung is doing this because you lost the game to Hyunwoo.”

– No. Enemies broke into the apartment.

“Enemy? The defensive shield will block it anyway. What’s the big deal? Did you misread the defensive spell like last time and change it from closed to open?”

Bomi still spoke playfully.

Last time, a refugee approached the apartment, and Hoyoung accidentally opened the defense shield.

When Bomi found out about this, she teased him whenever she had the chance.

– No. That’s not it… … .

– Hello. I am Director Park.

Director Park’s voice was heard.

The fact that Chief Park has stepped forward means that something really happened.

I silenced Bomi.

“Director Park. What kind of enemy is he?”

– This is the Goldtooth Pirates.

Bomi muttered at the mention of the Goldtooth Pirates.

“Goldtooth Pirates? Golden Tooth? What do they do?”

“Have you never heard of Crazy Yellow Tooth?”

Bomi answered Nurse Jang’s question by snapping her fingers.

“Crazy Yellow? Oh! I’ve heard of them. Aren’t they the guys selling urine water on Trash Island?”

“They sell not only urine, but also human milk.”

“Whew!”

Bomi retched, her face distorted.

“No. The urine is so dirty that I could die, but they even sell human milk. Aren’t they crazy? Oh! That’s right. I called them crazy yellow teeth.”

“I’m not crazy. I’m just struggling to survive in a world submerged in water.”

Nurse Jang said coldly.

The Goldtooth Pirates, also known as the Crazy Yellowtooth, are one of the trading forces that dock at Trash Island.

They sold whatever they looted, but the main trade items were urine and human milk, which were considered substitutes for water.

They were traded for food, necessities, materials and equipment excavated or produced on Garbage Island.

– Just a moment, Detective Kim.

Without even listening to my answer, Chief Park stopped the satellite communication.

Judging from the urgent voices of Chief Park and Hoyoung that could be heard as background music, it seemed like something urgent had happened in the apartment.

Have the Goldtooth Pirates found a way to break through the defense shield?

Hey! No way. Just like Bomi said, even the giant squid couldn’t get through the ocean.

Yet nothing in this world, especially in a world submerged in water, is impossible.

Didn’t something unimaginable happen to me, like breathing under water?

So, what are the possible cases for penetrating the defensive shield?

While I was thinking in my head, Bomi and Nurse Jang continued their conversation about the Goldtooth Pirates.

“No matter what, it’s like that. How can you sell urine and human milk? How can Nurse Jang drink that? If she drinks it, she’s not even human.”

“Bomi, do you think so? If there had been no urine, would the people of Gangbuk on Trash Island have survived? Do you know, Bomi? What are the people of Gangbuk like?”

Nurse Jang responded to Bomi’s accusation with a question.

The southern region, where most, if not all, of the population of Trash Island live, is divided into Gangnam and Gangbuk.

It looks like a great, planned and clear division of a new city, but in fact, the division between Gangbuk and Gangnam was made forcibly.

The stream dividing Gangnam and Gangbuk was so narrow that an adult could easily jump over it.

Nevertheless, people, especially those in Gangnam, divided their territory into the South and the North like Seoul in the past.

Gangnam has always been bustling and bustling because it has a port and a coastline.

As a result, trade, businesses, and facilities such as the parliament building were concentrated there, and the trash was also somewhat cleaned up.

On the other hand, Gangbuk was an inland area with a high concentration of garbage, so it was inconvenient to move around like a haphazardly developed neighborhood in Dal-dong, and dangerous garbage was overflowing.

As a result, gas explosions occurred, people were blown to death, and the ground collapsed, causing people to go missing.

When people gather together, they divide themselves into classes and distinguish themselves from others based on where they live.

As one might expect, the powerful, the wealthy, and the capable all settled in Gangnam.

On the other hand, the poor, the weak, the elderly, and children were pushed into the poor Gangbuk area.

Even those who had a hard time were pushed out to the north, which was assigned to us and called the ‘shit land’.

“Well, that’s it.”

Bomi seemed speechless at Nurse Jang’s question.

Then Jungwoo said something to help.

“But doesn’t human milk sell for a high price? I heard that only people in Gangnam, and especially the really upper class, drink milk.”

“Jungwoo is right. They are people who would eat shit if it was good for their health. If urine was scarcer than human milk, they would probably buy it at a high price and drink it. They think they are different from others.”

Nurse Jang raised the corners of her lips and smiled.

Oh! Nurse Jang was always this cynical.

Nurse Jang looked new.

By the way, Nurse Jang said that she had worked at a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam.

He said that he had to change jobs because of his house mortgage, and that he suffered a lot of mental anguish while working due to the bullying and harassment of patients.

As a result, I easily fell into the trap of being emotionally unstable and having a confused mind.

Bomi looked at Jeongwoo with a smile.

“Oppa Jungwoo! How did human milk taste?”

“Huh? I don’t know because I haven’t tried it.”

At Jeongwoo’s answer, Bomi raised her hand and made a decision.

“Pass. As expected, it’s Jungwoo oppa.”

Jungwoo was momentarily confused, then realized that Bomi was testing him.

“What? You don’t think I’ve tasted human milk?”

“Hey. I was just joking.”

When Bomi grabbed Jungwoo’s arm and started acting cute, Jungwoo couldn’t get angry anymore.

The two of them looked the same as before.

Bomi enjoyed playing pranks that would embarrass Jeongwoo.

Fortunately, neither of them seemed to be suffering from any aftereffects of Siren’s hypnosis.

Jeong-woo looked back at Nurse Jang and asked.

“But Nurse Jang, isn’t urine and human milk banned on Trash Island these days?”

“Oh. Right.”

“Oh, that’s not true. They sell it at the goblin market and at street vendors.”

When Bomi tilted her head, Nurse Jang gave a supplementary explanation.

“That’s true too. Officially, they’re banned, but you can still buy them if you want. I heard that their prices have actually gone up since they were banned.”

“If the price went up, why did you ban it?”

“well.”

They may not know it, but the water substitute was officially banned because of an allergy scandal.

The allergy scandal was an incident that came to light while investigating the forces surrounding Trash Island.

As the population of Garbage Island grew, it opened its ports to receive supplies of food and water.

At that time, the Goldtooth Pirates quickly obtained the trading rights.

In the early days of trade, they tried to sell the people they captured through piracy as slave goods.

However, the slave market was empty, with only a few young and pretty women and men being sold.

There was still a sense of rejection towards slaves due to the inertia of the previous world, but who would want to buy a human being who drinks water in a world submerged in water that cannot even guarantee their own survival?

Those who were captured without being killed on purpose became malicious inventory.

And the maintenance costs, you had to keep supplying them with water and food to keep them from dying.

As time passed, the damage was bound to increase.

To overcome this, they came up with a solution: collect people’s urine and milk and sell them.

Because there were many stories in articles and movies about people surviving extreme situations, such as shipwrecks or disasters, by drinking urine and milk, people knew that urine and milk could be substitutes for water.

Even so, drinking this water substitute was bound to be a repulsive experience.

In the early days of its marketing, water substitutes were met with criticism and ridicule, rather than sales.

But there was a simple solution.

That was a price reduction, a sale.

They hit the jackpot by selling urine for cheaper than water.

I don’t know if it was the Goldtooth Pirates’ intention, but an interesting phenomenon occurred during the sales process.

Just as poor people cannot eat vegetables and can only eat junk food like hamburgers, people in Gangbuk only drank urine water.

On the other hand, human milk was sold at a high price to people in Gangnam because of its reputation as a nutritious tonic.

But as more water substitutes were sold, there was a growing problem.

Human milk was sold at a much higher price than water, so the more it was produced, the more profit it made.

Lactating women were provided with plenty of water and food, and young girls who were unable to lactate were given hormones to produce more milk.

On the other hand, in order to produce urine water, the urine water producers must be made to drink water.

This did not balance the bill as it consumed much more expensive water.

So the Goldtooth Pirates forced the people they captured for piracy to drink seawater and then urinate on them.

The Goldtooth Pirates called the slaves who produced the urine water ‘purifiers.’

People who drank seawater initially produced urine, but later died from dehydration.

However, the Goldtooth Pirates were happy about it, saying it was a way to clear out bad inventory.

The Goldtooth Pirates, who had hit the jackpot with water substitutes, strengthened their weapons and expanded their power.

So they became quite a powerful force among the groups on Trash Island.

When the Navy Captain Jang first saw me, he mistook me for the Goldtooth Pirates, so I guess I have connections with various forces.

There were rumors that they were targeting Trash Island, but that wasn’t really an issue since both the Ark Church and the Navy did that.

But soon the Goldtooth Pirates were in danger.

An escaped slave from the Goldtooth Pirates has revealed the brutal methods of producing urine water.
