The Crazy Demigod Returns - The Crazy Demigod Returns chapter 94
Trouble
“… Wonwoo Jang. Is it uncomfortable to use chopsticks with your left hand?”
Seven men and women sitting at the same table for the first time in a long time.
Among the five men, Ha Yeon-woo, who was sitting opposite Won-woo Jang, opened his mouth quietly.
At the same time, the eyes focused without knowing.
I couldn’t know It was covered by a table, but it was transmitted as if you could see Jang Bo-ra and Jang Won-woo holding hands through your senses.
“If that’s the case, you can just hold on to it, man. What is the boss saying about something like that?”
As soon as Ha Yeon-woo finished speaking, Lee Il-hwan added.
Ha Yeon-woo and his aides were sitting and eating.
Father, cougar boss Lee Il-hwan, Jang Won-woo and his younger sister. It was Jang Bora and Na Sangi.
“Kh, hmm… .”
“… lol.”
As her father, who was sitting in the honorary seat, was also a high-ranking Awakener, of course he knew but pretended not to know, so he cleared his throat, and Jang Bo-ra just smiled awkwardly.
Jang Won-woo carefully removed his clasped hands and placed them neatly on the table.
“… sorry.”
“What are you sorry about? I said it because I like to see it. Don’t hide it so that it doesn’t happen.”
Similar to Lee Il-hwan’s reaction, Ha Yeon-woo’s words came out with the intention of half-joking.
Everyone was accustomed to the blunt tone, so everyone seemed to understand.
“I agree!”
The father, who had been drinking water, shouted loudly, and a faint smile appeared on Jang Won-woo’s lips.
It’s been about 2 years since we’ve been together.
My father, knowingly or unknowingly, had become everyone’s mental support.
Ha Yeon-woo melted properly while he was out and about, to the point that his relationship with himself was rather awkward and awkward.
There may be many reasons, but the biggest factor among them must have been that everyone here was a person who did not have a proper family.
Jang Bo-ra lost her only father and entrusted herself to Ha Yeon-woo, and Jang Won-woo and his younger sister were no different from Cheon-ae orphans.
Na Sang-gi has also been separated from his relatives and has never started a family, and Lee Il-hwan also has a wife and children, but is an orphan.
Willingly or unwillingly, the father filled the void everyone had in a timely manner.
“Father!”
Jang Bo-ra was delighted at the words of approval, and took another bite and stabbed Jang Won-woo in the side.
“Is that so?”
“Ah, um… .”
Jang Won-woo looks at his eyes in an unanswerable way. The reaction of freshness followed.
“That guy… .”
“Ugh… What do you do if you have a good head? Without this burning passion, passion.”
“brother… Are you an idiot?”
The advice of Lee Il-hwan, who has already formed a family with his father who clicks his tongue as if he is pathetic. Even Choi So-ra, Jang Won-woo’s younger sister, who criticizes him without hesitation.
The dining table soon turned into a place to tease Jang Won-woo.
“It is still in the learning stage. What do you say to your brother… .”
“I am learning… driving me crazy… .”
“It’s open, it’s open. Mr. Bora. I will work hard to make this guy a person.”
“Ugh! Don’t you know that this kind of thing is attractive these days? Why my brother… .”
With the exception of Wonwoo Jang, the happy meal continued for a while, giving a brief moment of peace.
* * *
After a while after having a meal.
Jang Won-woo, who stopped by the office to report, handed over several photos.
Evidence taken with cameras powered by film, not electricity.
“One is a crime. The other is people flocking from the Republic of Korea. For now, there are two main things… .”
“Jang Won-woo.”
“why… Is that so?”
As soon as the report started, Jang Won-woo asked curiously.
His face had returned to his usual calm expression, not the clumsy expression he had at the dinner table.
That was one of the biggest reasons I kept him by my side.
“Look, where do you like?”
“Suddenly why… .”
“Both to me now… Because they are helpful people.”
Instead of unfamiliar words such as family, precious, etc., he expressed it in a helpful way, but Jang Won-woo, who was already familiar with Ha Yeon-woo’s speech, fell into trouble as if he understood the meaning behind it.
“just… great. It’s the first time I’ve ever liked a member of the opposite s*x, so I can’t express it properly.”
“okay?”
The words that he likes without knowing when and why, since he is calculating and logical, uttered plainly and simply without explanation, sounded more believable to Ha Yeon-woo.
“Be good to me. Even if you look active, there will be a lot of scars, so take care of it.”
“… thank you.”
“The world is like this, so you’d better not expect a congratulatory money or a nice present.”
When I made a light joke, I could see a soft smile hovering over his hard expression.
“Even now, I am fully satisfied with my life. Just keep looking at me kindly from the side in the future.”
Jang Won-woo has also been criticized for his characteristic cynical joke.
Shallow smiles lingered on each other’s lips for a moment, and the conversation returned to the main topic.
“Then, this direction is… How do I catch it?”
Now the Saran Autonomous Region was obviously small, but it took on the shape of a nation.
Although he never showed up, everyone living here is aware of his existence.
There was no organization, organization, or personnel to check each other below, and Na Sang-gi, Jang Won-woo, and Lee Il-hwan, who were like retainers, played the role of hands and feet.
The cougar, a private organization, was like an army or police that did autonomous duty.
Since there was no foundation in the first place, it was impossible to sell good democracy.
Rather than the country of the existing modern society, the kingdom of the pan continent. Or a form similar to a modern state.
If you were to find the most similar thing, a huge estate belonging to a high-ranking aristocrat in a certain royal society would be appropriate.
There are about 10,000 people who follow and follow Ha Yeon-woo. About 20,000 of their families came over together.
Personnel and various professional personnel who have been formed and recruited in Sara Autonomous District. Roughly 20,000 people were the sum of the handyman who was put into the construction site and the people who moved or visited in the early stages and were tied up when the disaster broke out.
The total population was over 50,000.
The emergency population of metropolitan cities was similar to that of small and medium-sized cities, so it was more strange that large and small problems did not occur.
The immediate homework is that large and small crimes that have started happening inside and attempts to enter the outside have become frequent, as reported by Jang Won-woo.
“This is the first murder… .”
It was all up to Ha Yeon-woo to set the big direction. For example, things like the punishment of the murderer who is the subject of what happened now.
If a precedent is set, Na Sang-gi or Jang Won-woo refer to it and establish it. That was one of the ways Sara Borough worked now.
It must have been because of the proposition that it was the first murder case that Jang Won-woo continued to report while ruining the good atmosphere.
“How long did you last?”
“About a year and a half from the start of construction. It’s been about nine months since the disaster broke out.”
It lasted long enough.
There are 50,000 people living there, and the first murder occurred in 10 months.
But in other words, it was also a precursor and a starting point.
Unsurprisingly, crime rates around the world skyrocketed after the Gates scandal. To the extent that we have to overturn the existing average and investigate again.
With 100 million humans who could tear apart their own people with their bare hands, the level of peace could not be the same as before.
It reminded me of a conversation we had with Na Sang-gi, who ate government rust.
South Korea’s annual homicide rate per 100,000 people since the Gate incident has been between 4 and 5.
It was about 5 times higher than before the gate occurred.
The global average is around 18 to 20.
‘I heard that the highest El Salvador or Jamaica is close to 200.’
In other words, there were countries where 200 people died out of every 100,000 people a year.
Of course, this was a figure excluding unsolved cases and sentences that were not executed. Since the majority of awakening crimes are concealment crimes, the actual figure must be much higher than that.
Right now, there will be a concealed crime in Sara Autonomous District. However, this was the first time the truth was revealed, so I could say that I made a good save at a fairly high level.
The world was more ruined, but the numbers were far below average.
Still, like Murphy’s Law, what was meant to happen happened. That was human nature.
“More details.”
Reports continued as if they had been waiting for the calm words that he came out after organizing his thoughts for a while.
“The location of the outbreak is a private house in District 7. Early yesterday morning, a neighbor smelled the blood and came to the local Cougar branch to find it. Judging by the degree of damage to the corpse, it is highly likely that it was the work of an awakened person.”
“Awakener?”
“Yes, we are judging that it is likely to be one of the workers or visitors who came in during the initial construction.”
I turned my eyes to the body in the picture.
The appearance of a corpse with arms and legs deformedly bent, which can never be said to be the work of an ordinary person.
In the first place, even if an ordinary human being has power, he is not ready to do such a thing. Killed by strangulation or stabbing with a knife.
Of course, Jang Won-woo’s hypothesis was strong that he was a construction worker with the least identification, or a criminal who came in among reporters and onlookers when he was free to enter and exit in the early days.
“After killing them, they fled the scene without concealment. They say the picture you see is the same as when they found it.”
“Where is the location?”
“This is District 7.”
“Area 7… .”
When the water was about to clear, the baby loaches were showing up one by one.
* * *
Sara Autonomous District is currently divided into nine districts.
There was no particular significance for each area.
If Sara Autonomous District is a kind of country and city, each district plays the role of a city and consent.
A total of 9 districts were arranged like a checkerboard, centered on district 5, where buildings serving as government offices and residences of major figures such as Ha Yeon-woo were concentrated.
As is always the case in neighborhoods where people live, if there were wealthy villages, there were slums, and if there were safe neighborhoods, bad neighborhoods also existed.
In the current situation where infrastructure and communication are incomplete, such phenomena are appearing much more polarized everywhere.
Among them, District 7, which is located at the northwest end, was a good place to live, as it is commonly said in Sara Autonomous District, for the poor quality.
Cougars, acting as vigilantes, police, and troops, had the least influence, most of the terrain was mountainous, giving it a remote feel, and the population was the smallest compared to the overflowing land, so people either had goals or were pushed back as if they were running away. made up the majority of these inhabitants.
In South Korea, even in Gangnam, the land of the yolk, various illegal organizations run rampant and collude with powerful people to continue their lives, but common sense that does not work in Sarah Autonomous District.
Hiding out of sight was the only option.
So, more and more garbage naturally gathered in District 7.
According to the Sara Autonomous District Law, which is being newly created by reshaping the existing Republic of Korea, illegal acts that could cause damage to the personal life of residents were punished with labor as the minimum and death penalty as the maximum.
Since there is no precedent, not only this place, but all the bullies who must be spreading everywhere are holding their breath.
“Tongue, brother. What shall we do now?”
Even in District 7, it was a remote area far to the north.
Fifteen people gathered and had a party.
“under… stay still for a while Can’t you see I’m thinking right now?”
There is only one reason why they are hiding in this dangerous area.
This is because they were the main culprits of a murder that took place in a private house in District 7 two days ago.
These eleven members of the gang are not formal immigrants, cougars, or black market associates. They were laborers or early visitors.
When Sara Autonomous District was just starting construction, people weren’t screened out like they are now.
Construction workers, handymen, bystanders, and visitors who entered through the human resources office could enter the interior as much as they wanted, and it was a heaven-sent opportunity for criminals who hid their identities.
In their home country, they can’t even function as human beings anyway, and if they get caught, they have to rot in prison for at least a few to several decades.
In that case, with the intention of washing their hands and making a fresh start here, quite a number of criminals attempted to hide.
Even so, disaster broke out before completion, and only a few succeeded, and they said that they did not give out their manners, and they committed crimes again and tried to escape.
“So why go all the way to a village where people live and talk sh*t… !”
Kim Jin-seong, the leader of those who were worried, stood up and raised his hand. With momentum to beat the man who committed murder.
“I’m sorry!”
As the subordinate shrank, Kim Jin-seong sighed and sat down again.
‘There’s no point in venting your anger now. If you get caught anyway, your life is lost.’
If they kicked them out, it was almost certain that their evil deeds would be exposed, and if they lost, they would take out their anger. Even if they killed them, the cougar was already chasing them.
If you want to get a sword holder later, you had to have it with you. It’s been a few months, but there were also the eyes of the gang who gathered as family members.
And through the bushes that were not even cleared, there were other eyes watching the whole scene.
