Episode 48
While Mr. Hyun-soo was looking for the power control device, we headed to the closed military base.
And after finding ‘that’ item I was looking for in the warehouse, I returned to the garage.
By then the sky was gradually darkening, and even the sunset was obscured by the falling snow.
Only a few streetlights along the road indicated that this was a road.
I looked out the window, which was completely gray, and chewed on the hard biscuit.
Cheek!
[… … Mr. Daesu! They just left.]
At that moment, the radio started crackling and a call came from the women’s group inside the shelter.
As requested, he appeared to have found a group of people leaving the boarding gate.
It’s convenient because we have internal collaborators.
I swallowed the remaining biscuit in my mouth along with some water and quickly took out the walkie-talkie.
“Did you see how many people there were?”
[I think there were more than twenty of you. Are you sure you’re okay? Can we help you?]
“It’s okay. Is there any news about your sister?”
[No, I guess no one saw you. This is the first time this has happened, so I think you went out secretly.]
My older sister said that whenever she goes somewhere, she usually tells people around her or leaves a note.
But for some reason, even the women’s association I was close with didn’t know the destination of this outing.
Was there any special reason, and if there was a reason, why did it have to be now?
Unable to bear the frustration, I finally scratched my head and picked up the radio again.
“Is there a place you often go to?”
[I think he often went to the in-flight dining facilities or cargo terminal. He said it was safe because there were no infected people hanging around there.]
“Thank you. I’ll just take care of this for now and then go. If you find out anything else, please contact me again.”
After disconnecting the radio, I walked back to the window and looked at the boarding area in the distance.
They said they took off 10 minutes ago, so you should be able to see them slowly crossing the runway by now.
I slowly loaded my crossbow and checked the bolt bundle so I could draw it at any time.
Hehe!
But at that moment, Coco, who had been lying still and sleeping, suddenly woke up and wagged her tail.
I quickly ran to the window and turned my gaze towards the runway where the boarding gate was.
‘come.’
As expected, shadows began to appear beneath the dim streetlights.
At first glance, there were 22 of them, all armed with air guns or heavy blunt weapons.
But everyone looked visibly flustered, as if they had not expected that it would be so hard to see ahead.
Eventually, the group, who had even taken out flashlights, slowly walked toward the maintenance depot.
“It’s coming.”
[Yes, brother.]
I radioed my party, who were waiting in their respective positions, to get ready.
Then he stood up with his loaded crossbow in his hand and walked towards the second floor railing.
Thud, thud.
A moment later, muffled footsteps and faint radio noise began to be heard.
They were loitering around the open emergency exit, probably trying to transmit.
“But isn’t it already too late at this point?”
“Fuck! He’s Director Park’s younger brother. Just shut up and pretend to look for him.”
The golden time to search for the missing person has already passed due to Director Kim’s delayed response.
Director Park, who was very angry, looked around the maintenance office with a fierce expression.
“You guys go over there.”
“All right.”
Still, since they were all experienced, they split into pairs and began searching the interior.
I waited for them to disperse, and then quietly peeked my head out over the railing.
Kikkik!
Phew!
First, I fired my crossbow at an opponent approaching the second floor stairs.
Kwajik!
The bolt flew in a straight line and passed right through the man’s head.
“Huh, huh?”
The colleague who was following behind was suddenly pushed by a corpse that fell backwards and fell down.
Phew!
Kwajik!
I calmly loaded the bolt and killed the last one left in an instant.
“Fuck! It’s the enemy!”
At that moment, one of the men who witnessed this scene from afar shouted and fired an air gun.
Kwajik!
I quickly hid myself from the flying bullets and ran to the other side.
“What are you doing! Kill that kid!”
Director Park, excited by this, personally took up the air gun and led the group.
Soon, more than 20 of them started to swarm behind me.
Phew!
Kwajik!
Bullets flew overhead and swearing and shouting could be heard from just below the second floor.
I gradually increased my speed as if trying to catch them, and lured them deeper into the area.
“now!”
At that moment, Private Lee Hyeon-su, who was standing in front of the power control device, suddenly turned off the light.
Flash!
The maintenance room, which was as bright as day, suddenly turned into a pitch-black, dark, closed room.
“What the heck!”
The panicked men fell over, bumping into each other, and hurriedly took out their flashlights.
Meanwhile, I reached the destination and took out my bag, gasping for breath.
Then he put on the night vision goggles he had brought from the military base and quickly turned them on.
Crunch!
Perhaps because it was an early model, its performance was disappointing compared to the one I used when I was in service.
But there is a world of difference between having and not having night vision goggles like this.
“Shoot!”
As I gave the signal, the group wearing night vision goggles stuck their heads out over the railing.
And then I pulled the trigger with all my might at the guys who were frantically trying to get out their flashlights.
Kwajik!
Kkaaaak!
Deadly lead bullets flew in from all directions, accompanied by the muffled sound of air escaping.
The bastards fell down screaming, not even knowing what was happening to them.
An air gun without noise or muzzle flame.
Night vision goggles that can see through the darkness.
The synergy created by these two items made even an unfavorable 22:5 battle possible.
Phew!
Kwajik!
We were just silently hitting the moving targets as if we were doing target practice.
“Spread out, you idiots! Take cover!”
But it seems like not everyone was foolish, as Director Park calmed down the remaining gang.
The bastard knocked over a nearby metal tool cabinet and took cover behind it.
The gang, which had already been reduced to half, also began to hide one by one to find a way to survive.
“Stop it! Quickly!”
“Eww, shit!”
As expected, the number of thugs was high. Even though I shot them so hard, more than half of them still remained.
The men who had barely managed to hide their bodies finally took out their flashlights and illuminated the surrounding area.
“Over there!”
“Shoot!”
At that moment, Private Oh Chan-il, who was closest to him, was caught.
“Huh!”
Ochan-il, startled by the sudden concentrated fire, hurriedly lowered his head and hid.
There was a momentary gap in firepower.
“Get back!”
Director Park, not missing the opportunity, stepped back, dragging a tool cabinet on wheels.
The rest of the gang also followed him and tried to hurriedly escape from the maintenance room.
If we leave it like this, it’s over.
I quickly retrieved my crossbow and called out to Kim Jin-kyung, who was waiting at the rear.
“Ms. Jin-kyung!”
[i know!]
But she, who had been preparing for this moment, had already run away a long time ago.
I quickly ran down the railing to join in, drawing my greatsword.
widely!
Meanwhile, Jin-Kyung Kim, who had landed beautifully on the second floor, blocked the passageway, which was the only escape route.
bang!
At the same time, he kicked the guys and the iron cabinet that had been his cover, and smiled faintly.
Armed with an iron scepter, a sword-fighting suit, and brass knuckles, she charged in like a beast.
Phew, crunch!
Following the weaving that was now almost a patent, a powerful right hook flew in.
Kim Jin-kyung, who also has practical skills, started to run wild against the gang.
widely!
In the meantime, I quickly closed the distance and ran up the second floor stairs almost like I was flying.
Kwajik!
Then he blocked the guy who was trying to run away in the opposite direction and lightly swung his greatsword.
Cool!
As the sharp blade cut into his Adam’s apple, a red line appeared and blood flowed out.
The bastard grabbed his neck with a look of disbelief on his face, then fell down helplessly.
“older brother!”
Growl!
Oh Chan-il, Lee Hyun-soo, and Coco all joined in without missing the timing.
The momentum quickly turned in our favor, and the bastards were hunted down one by one.
“Eww!!”
But at that moment, Kim Jin-kyung, who was hit by something with a desperate scream, stepped back.
Director Park, who had been using his subordinates as a meat shield, struck her with a strong blow.
“Huh!”
“Get behind!”
Director Park, his eyes bloodshot, quickly pulled out his knife and began to rush in.
It wasn’t random.
This is properly learned knife fighting.
Bang!
Kim Jin-kyung, who barely managed to block the knife with her gauntlet, gritted her teeth and stopped the oncoming attacker.
But gradually, the unusual knife fighting techniques began to show their vividness.
Phew!
Because the two were fighting entangled together, the group was at a loss as to what to do and couldn’t fire their guns.
At this, I quickly intervened and tried to stab Director Park’s vital spot with my sword.
Bang!
But the bastard showed incredible reaction speed and quickly blocked the blade flying towards his vital spot.
“What the hell, this kid!”
And only then did he realize that he had been tricked and was devastated when he saw my face.
Phew! I took a deep breath and quickly wiped the blood off the blade.
Then, Director Park, who noticed the skilled knife fighting stance, smiled bitterly and asked.
“… … Is that you? The one who killed my brother.”
“okay.”
“Hey, where the hell are you from?”
I heard he had bodyguards, but I never thought he would have someone this powerful.
It might be okay if it was during my active days, but now that my skills have declined a lot, I think it will take some time.
I slowly caught my breath and closed the distance to attack with Kim Jin-kyung.
Push!
“Kwaaaaak!”
But at that moment, a bullet flying from behind hit Director Park’s right wrist.
The man, who had been striking all sorts of poses with a vicious face, screamed while grabbing my right hand.
[Sorry, sorry! Can’t I shoot?]
The one who fired the gun was none other than Olivia, who was pulling the trigger from a distance.
In this dark and distant distance, it hit the right hand that was holding the knife exactly.
“Uh… … Good job.”
[Hehehe, thank you.]
Come to think of it, we have guns, right?
I scratched my head awkwardly, took out my silenced pistol, and shot Director Park in the thigh.
Phew!
“Aaaah, you little shit!”
The proud appearance he had just a moment ago is now gone, and he is crawling on the floor like an insect.
We approached Director Park and tied his limbs to prevent him from running away.
“How many people in total? The number of your heads.”
“Fuck, what the… … Aaaah!”
As he continued to throw tantrums, I stamped on his hand and thigh where the bullet had passed through.
“I asked you earlier where you were from?”
I know of several ways to inflict pain so severe that you’ll beg to be killed.
I held the blade of my bayonet over the wound where the bullet had gone through and gave him one last warning.
“This is the kind of place they do this kind of thing.”
At that moment, the guy who had been flailing his whole body shut his screaming mouth tightly and trembled with his eyes.
No, it is not.
That what you said is true.
“Tell me, how many people?”
“Thirty! Thirty left!”
“Someone like you.”
“There’s one more kid.”
I think we’ve caught over 30 so far, and there are 30 more to go.
No matter how large the shelter was, the number was too large for one individual to lead.
“Jin, it’s true. Even the Joseonjok who joined later are all mixed in. If you let me live, I’ll lure them out little by little. I was going to soak that bastard Director Kim anyway!”
Director Park must have thought I was suspicious, so he hurriedly made excuses and looked for a way out.
Clearing the shelter would be easier if the insider cooperated.
Krrrrrp.
But without hesitation, I slit his throat and cleanly cut off Director Park’s airway.
The group removed the body as if it were a natural thing to do, and carefully recovered the equipment and even the radio.
“Olivia.”
“yes yes?”
“Do you happen to know where the in-flight meal facilities and cargo terminal are? Or at least the general locations.”
“Yes, it’s close to here!”
Meanwhile, I asked Olivia where her sister had gone and recorded it on the GPS.
As they said, it was not too far from Terminal 2, so it was definitely a safe route.
“Brother, are you going right away?”
“There are more of them than I thought. Before we fight, let’s try to reduce the anxiety factors one by one.”
With over 30 people killed on our side, coexistence is virtually impossible.
Considering the battle to come, ensuring my sister’s safety was the top priority.
“Mr. Daesu, your complexion is really bad.”
“I’m a little tired.”
Come to think of it, I only slept for about three hours over the two days.
Before I knew it, I was very tired, and my eyes were so heavy that they almost fell out.
Boom!
But I finished lightly stretching my neck muscles and prepared to leave again.
“Let’s go right away.”
I’ll save my sister before the night is over.
That was the only thought in my head.
Growl!
“… … ?”
But at that moment, Coco, who had been wagging her tail, suddenly showed her teeth.
And then suddenly, his whole body puffed up and he started barking madly towards the outside of the garage.
Woof! Woof! Woof!
We were surprised and hugged Coco, who was excited, and hurriedly put a gag on her.
But the guy’s excitement didn’t subside easily, and he flailed his whole body and writhed.
“Brother, Brother. Why are you suddenly doing this?”
“I don’t know either!”
He is an experienced hunting dog who never barks until given a command.
But now, for some reason, I was out of control and just following my instincts.
There are usually two cases like this.
When I am in danger or when danger is approaching from somewhere that I cannot resist.
“Mr. Daesu!”
At that moment, Jin-kyung Kim, who was looking around, discovered something in the midst of the swirling snowstorm.
I hastily took out my telescope and looked in the direction she was pointing.
“… … !”
And I found it.
Across the runway, there was nothing but gray snow and darkness, countless shadows.
‘Infected people?’
They were all moving towards some place, like iron filings being drawn to a magnet.
A large-scale movement of infected people without any warning signs or even signs.
I hurriedly took out my GPS and map to try to figure out where and in what direction they were moving.
‘… … cargo terminal.’
Cargo terminal.
It’s a place my older sister said she often went to.
My heart sank for a moment, and I ran out of the maintenance garage and sprinted down the runway.
