Episode 51
After overcoming all the hardships and pains of the past, I finally succeeded in meeting Yebin and my older sister.
I wish I could go back to campus right away and let the two have a happy reunion.
But there was still one thorny issue that my companions and I had yet to deal with.
“You’re looking for us?”
“Yes, I think I’m starting to get the hang of it.”
Director Kim finally learned of our presence as outside helpers.
Well, it would be even more embarrassing if you didn’t notice that more than 30 of your subordinates were swept away.
He’s probably foaming at the mouth right now, looking for the decapitated Director Park and his subordinates.
“Is there any particular movement?”
“Not yet.”
A person with normal intelligence would try to mobilize all his abilities as soon as he realizes that the situation is not normal.
However, judging from his past actions, Director Kim has a strong desire for power, but his ability to do so is lacking.
These guys usually make the fatal mistake of being cautious when it comes to making moves.
As expected, Director Kim was busy sticking his head out like a crab and trying to figure out the situation.
Of course, this was good news for us, who needed time to reorganize.
“Have all the women’s association members been evacuated?”
“Yes, everyone is gathered here.”
First of all, I smuggled all the women’s association members and their families to this side.
The number alone was over 60, and fortunately, there were many storage rooms and break rooms inside the boarding area where they could hide secretly.
Director Kim, who arrived on the third floor late, had to return without finding anything.
“The problem is what happens in the future.”
“Yes, they probably guessed it too.”
But no matter how large and complex the second passenger terminal is, it is only a matter of time before they find us.
There is a limit to how long we can hide like this, so it is time for us to make a decision.
“What do you guys think?”
The biggest reason I came to Yeongjong Island was none other than to save my older sister.
In fact, even if they wanted to go back like this, there was no one who could curse the group.
“Hmm.”
“It’s difficult.”
But everyone’s thoughts were complicated, so no one dared to open their mouths.
But at that moment, Private Lee Hyeon-su, who had been looking around, quickly raised his hand and shouted.
“Let’s just accept it here!”
“Is it as easy as it sounds?”
“Hey, Sang-baem, why are you doing this? It would be a huge loss to come all this way and go back.”
Private Lee Hyeon-su did not waver in his opinion on taking over this place from beginning to end.
I guess this airport, with all kinds of infrastructure and machines, was just my taste.
However, Private First Class Oh Chan-il, who was in charge of Private Lee Hyeon-su, went through each and every detail of the matter.
“The situation was just right at that time. They must be preparing for an attack now, so how are we going to kill the remaining thirty?”
“that…….”
“You’ve been lucky so far, Hyunsoo. There’s no guarantee that it’ll continue to be that way.”
That’s a good point.
The bullets missed us not because we fought well, but simply because we were lucky.
If the numbers had been a little more numerous, it would have been possible, but in a head-on confrontation there was virtually no hope.
“Even a snake like that wouldn’t want to just go away, right?”
“What a quick-witted kid.”
But Private Oh Chan-il, who was really concerned about reality, didn’t seem to want to leave like this.
If we hadn’t done anything, we wouldn’t have known, but it was clear that we had set the stage.
I wanted to end it, whether it was with Director Kim or taking everyone with him.
All opinions were in favor.
Now it’s time for a dissenting opinion.
Excluding Olivia, who was a newbie, the only one left was our action leader, Jin-Kyung Kim.
“… …Why are you looking at me?”
“I just saw it.”
“Oh my, I have no blood or tears, right?”
Among our group, Jin-kyung Kim is the most rational and has a great ability to understand reality.
We all listened carefully, as it occasionally played the role of applying the brakes.
Kim Jin-kyung sighed and said.
“What are you talking about? It would be right to leave right now. But would Dae-su-ssi-ssi-ssi-unni say that? Everyone, try to think about it from your perspective.”
The people who have overcome all kinds of adversity together with me are now inseparable from me.
The people here are like that to my older sister, so should I just tell them to leave me alone?
No matter how much family comes first, there was no way my sister, who was a Pacific Islander, would listen to those words.
“Oh my, how did I end up following you here?”
She scratched her head and clicked her tongue as if to say that they were both the same, even though they were both sisters.
Even though he said that, the first person who became close to my older sister was Kim Jin-kyung.
Perhaps, somewhere in your heart, you have a strong desire to help.
“The problem is the method.”
If you have decided to solve the problem, it is now time to write down the solution and answer on the test paper.
This time, my companions and I sat down together and thought about how to deal with the trash.
dripping.
That was when.
Someone knocked on the door.
“madam?”
“I’m sorry for coming at such a late hour.”
This time, the women’s association and people who had taken refuge in the boarding area came to the break room all at once.
What’s happening at this hour?
Embarrassed, we got up from our chairs and made room for them to sit.
But because there were so many people, some opened their doors and took up space in the hallway.
The employee break room, which had been quiet for a while, became bustling with people flocking in.
“Okay, everyone, let’s be quiet.”
“Mr. Park, stop talking!”
However, as the members came forward, the commotion gradually died down and an atmosphere was finally created for dialogue.
The president of the women’s association, Hyun-Jeong’s mother, who had been silent, sat across from us representing the people.
“Is your face okay?”
“Yes, I feel much better thanks to the medicine you gave me.”
This is Hyun-jung’s mother, who got hit in the face by Director Park while protecting our older sister last time.
Fortunately, my teeth weren’t hurt, but the inside of my mouth was torn so I couldn’t chew food for a while.
But is something going on?
She had a very solemn expression on her face, as if she had made a big decision, with one side of her cheek swollen.
“What’s going on?”
“I have something to tell you.”
Judging from the atmosphere, it seems like they came because they had something to talk about together rather than a private conversation.
As I nodded, Hyunjeong’s mother took a deep breath and suddenly bent down.
“Please save me.”
“……yes?”
“Please save us, Mr. Daesu.”
Then, as if they had been waiting, the people who had gathered bowed down before us and begged us.
“Wait a minute. Why are you guys like this?”
There are not only middle-aged women here, but also elderly people.
I was flustered and tried to get them up, but they didn’t move at all as if they were stones.
“I know it’s shameless to ask such a favor, considering you saved our lives. But this is our only way to survive. Please help us.”
Since rescuing my sister, we’ve been silently focusing on recovery and planning.
But to people, it seemed like he was trying to escape.
I’m barely holding on now, but if my older sister follows me, what will happen to us?
Each day was a bloody struggle for them, and they eventually had to get on their knees to survive.
“I won’t ask you to fight for me. Just let me protect my family. Hope… just the hope that I can do it is enough.”
What does it mean to be alive?
Can you say that eating, sleeping, pooping, and simply gasping for breath are alive?
Those who were starving for hope rather than food saw a glimmer of hope in the runway they had fled from.
“… … .”
My companions and I, who suddenly found ourselves standing in front of so many people, looked at each other in silence.
It didn’t seem like it would take that long to find a solution to the problem.
You’ve got some solid allies.
* * *
I think I’ve only seen my sister genuinely angry twice in my entire life.
The first time was when my father hit me in the face when I was in middle school and I almost lost my sight.
The second time was when I got into a fight with some neighborhood punks and broke my leg.
I don’t really remember anything after that, but I never thought I’d see it here for the third time.
“Are you guys out of your minds!?”
My sister didn’t know that the women’s association members had come to me and asked for my help.
I heard the news later, but it was the first time I saw him so angry.
Wasn’t that originally the case?
When a person who is usually gentle like a deer suddenly gets angry, it can’t be that scary.
Those who faced their sister’s anger head-on had pale faces and didn’t know what to do.
Hyun-jung’s mother, who suddenly seemed to have taken the lead, had to beg with all her might.
“Everyone get out of here!”
But my older sister, who was shocked to see me fall, didn’t calm down easily.
The only people who can handle the situation right now are my daughter, Yebin, or my younger sister, me.
“Sister, calm down. Okay?”
I literally followed my sister around all day and put on a show to try to vent my anger.
I never thought I would be this cute and funny at this age.
“Daesu, I really… … .”
“I know how you feel.”
Would you not want to help them as your older sister?
I was just so overwhelmed and exhausted by the harsh reality that I didn’t know what to do.
But as time passed, the intense emotions that had been building up gradually subsided.
Finally, I succeeded in persuading them and gathered the men together to prepare for a full-scale battle.
“We’re all here, brother.”
“There are more than I thought.”
We gathered in the largest warehouse, but since there were over 60 people, the space was cramped.
Even this was selected and selected again, so my older sister really has a wide range of connections.
“… … Isn’t it too much of a rabble?”
“But where can we find such a gathering?”
The problem is that among these people, only about 10 people know how to fight properly.
Since it was an isolated shelter, it seems there wasn’t much opportunity to gain combat experience.
But that’s okay.
Because the picture I want is not an all-out war.
match!
I walked slowly in front of the people and clapped my hands to attract their attention.
Then, the chattering noise suddenly disappeared and a suffocating silence came.
“Thank you again for taking the time out of your busy schedule to gather here. I am Jang Dae-su, Dr. Jang’s younger brother. I will be staying here with you for a while.”
After a brief greeting, thunderous applause poured in from all directions.
After waiting for the applause to die down, I summarized my remarks and got straight to the point.
“Hyunsoo.”
“yes.”
Private Lee Hyeon-su brought the captured air gun as if he had been waiting for it and placed it on the table.
“These are hunting air guns that Director Kim and his gang possess. As you can see, they have been illegally modified to increase their power. If you hit a vital point, they can easily kill a person.”
When I showed them the air gun, people gulped with nervous faces.
“We captured 11 guns by killing them. Three of them are for us to use, and the remaining eight are for you to use. There are plenty of lead bullets for these, so feel free to use them.”
While I was explaining about air guns, an old man raised his hand and asked.
“excuse me…….”
“Yes, sir.”
“Don’t you use that rifle you have? It’s much more powerful than an air gun.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Director Kim, those guys don’t have anything but air guns, right? I heard they disposed of them all before the soldiers died.”
match!
I clapped my hands again to calm the people who were starting to get noisy.
“Yes, as you said, there are ways to get a working gun and ammunition. However, the infected have gathered too much due to the gunfire from last time. If we make any more noise here, the entire shelter could be put in danger.”
As a result of the runway escape we had on the runway, the main entrance and boarding area of Terminal 2 were currently teeming with infected people.
Even the most robustly welded barricades and sandbag cordons could easily be overrun by hundreds of thousands of people.
“Mom, I almost got in big trouble.”
“Everyone, be quiet and do as you are told.”
“An air gun can be used too.”
People nodded their heads in agreement as soon as the word infected person was mentioned.
But the questions weren’t over yet, as this time a young woman raised her hand.
“What can someone do without an air gun?”
“That’s a good question.”
As I was planning to give a demonstration, I quickly gestured to the waiting group.
“To the experienced assistant.”
“from now on!”
First, Private First Class Ohchun brought out a mobile barricade that could be used to cover his body.
“The air gun is certainly powerful, but its penetration power is poor. If you hide behind this, it will stop most bullets. Of course, you can also move while dragging it forward.”
A shield made from planks, cotton blankets, and airport carts overflowing from the terminal.
Not only is it easy to move because it has wheels, but it also covers the entire body, giving it a sense of stability.
People looked at the mobile barricade that Corporal Oh Chan-il had brought with them with small admiration.
“Next assistant.”
“from now on!”
This time I called Private Lee Hyeon-su and showed him the weapons the rest of the men would use.
“A slingshot?”
“Yes, it’s a slingshot.”
I made a simple slingshot using materials I brought from the garage.
People who saw this looked at them with ambiguous expressions, as if asking if it was some kind of child’s play.
“Show me.”
“yes.”
At that moment, Private Lee Hyeon-su aimed the slingshot he had made himself and fired a projectile.
Bang!
At that moment, a can lying far away was instantly pierced and fell to the floor.
Ouch! As the people were surprised, Private Lee Hyeon-su smiled happily and waved the slingshot.
“arrow……?”
“Yes, that’s right. To be exact, it’s a weapon called a slingshot, a gun that fires arrows.”
With just a little modification from an existing slingshot, you can create a sling bow that can shoot arrows.
It’s not as accurate or powerful as an arrow, but it’s enough to pierce a can like we just did.
In particular, the most important thing was portability that was light to hold and operability with a short training period.
Clap clap!
People who were once again amazed clapped their hands repeatedly and their eyes sparkled.
Everyone seemed to be in high spirits, as if they had decided that they could do it.
“Well done.”
“Hehehe.”
Both the mobile barricade and the sling bow were conceived and built by Private Lee Hyeon-su.
I feel this way every time, but it seems like this kind of wit and dexterity is something that is innate.
“Take them one by one.”
“You shouldn’t shoot people as a joke.”
After finishing the weapon demonstration, we divided up the roles among the people gathered there.
Now, as reality began to sink in, everyone took their equipment with a grave expression on their face.
“So now all we have to do is fight?”
“Let’s kill them all!”
Judging by their momentum, they seem ready to run out right now and storm up to the 4th floor where Director Kim is.
“Okay, everyone, calm down first.”
But I calmed those people down again and raised my index finger above my head.
“What I want you to do is simple. Please hold on in the hallway leading up to the fourth floor.”
“Huh? Just hold on?”
“Are you saying that you shouldn’t go up?”
“Yes. The first goal is to attract their attention. Never enter first.”
Unless Director Kim is an invalid, he must have practically fortified the fourth floor.
Trying to penetrate such a place with such ambiguous power was practically the same as saying that you would lose.
Avoid the formal method.
This time we’re going with the long-distance style.
“I will kill Director Kim.”
