Rust - Chapter 131

RUST [RUST]-131

On one side of the road, a trailer truck was stopped.

The employee who was staring intently at the hidden camera screens hidden here and there cursed softly. Of the ones scattered on the street, only three were properly captured, but there was no problem in understanding the situation.

‘That’s why I told you to leave first.’

The sight of Vladimir Maru fighting a cartel member with a tear tattoo far surpassed the athletic ability of ordinary people. It couldn’t have been done with a simple combat stimulant. So it’s likely that something special was added to a drug like crystal.

‘This shit happened because those kinds of guys were running around freely.’

There was a reason why the DEA messed with a cartel-affiliated organization and the team that went in was wiped out.

Cartel tattooist, let’s say, but what about those Japs? I haven’t seen any of them. There’s no such thing as a crystal-clear drug.

So, is it possible to move like that in real life? Are there things like real ninjas and samurai, not just movies or anime?

The focus started to shift slightly, and then the screen started to blur.

“Why is it like this again?”

The nearby camera was blown away by the aftermath of the claymore explosion, so the only footage was from a camera hidden a little further away, and even that image quality gradually deteriorated as dust settled on the camera placed on the ground.

‘uh?’

What just happened? Blurry footage. The employee rewound the recorded screen and played it back on repeat.

The blurry image came to mind again. No matter how I looked at it, it seemed like the screen was cut off in the middle. Japs was here and then suddenly disappeared.

That was the end of it. The outcome was unknown.

“shit.”

The staff checked the other cameras. Fortunately, the ones that were scattered near where the gunman was were intact. The ones that were scattered while saying they were moving the snack bag were recording clean footage.

The scene in the recorded video was also not normal this year. One shot, one kill. There was not a single bullet fired carelessly from a distance of almost 1km.

‘Not only can you react to enemy movements without observing them, you can also continuously find targets and shoot?’

How skilled would one be to do that? Could it be possible with training? The swordsman was like that, and so was that girl. Beyond the realm of training, into the realm of instinct.

A white-suited cartel member rushes in from where the claymore explodes and the blood and dust rises. What is this? It’s a completely different atmosphere from the fight between the knife-wielding men over there.

“HOLLY SH······!”

Dodging bullets? Bullets fired by a gunman? That wasn’t the end of it. The guy in the white suit threw something, and as soon as the gunman dodged, he started firing back.

The situation was tense, captured from both the camera attached next to the snack bag and the camera placed at the bottom of the rocky hill.

A man rushed at me like an animal, his forearm flying off. The gunman shot calmly without running away. Bullets were lodged in the man’s torso and legs. And later, a bullet hit the man’s head.

“······.”

The sight of a head that had been bent backwards slowly turning back.

Is that a human? It can move even after being shot in the head with a sniper rifle?

Even if the skull was made of titanium, it would have been impossible for it to have been that intact. Even if the head was made of alloy and didn’t break, what about the impact?

Even when wearing bulletproof vests, it was common to get broken ribs or internal injuries. Even if the bullet didn’t penetrate the vest, the shock wasn’t completely absorbed. But you’re okay?

“FUC···.”

The staff hurriedly saved the recorded footage. I thought the scene where the knife-wielding man saves the gunman was the last scene, but the knife-wielding man was acting strangely. He suddenly poked the severed head with the knife and started cutting it off.

“What The···.”

Huh? No way?

You guys, I say no!

Don’t do that! That won’t do!

Miss Kim, with her mouth shut, looked somewhat depressed.

Snacks scattered on the floor and trampled. The bag torn to pieces. The Barrett that he had cherished and cherished was shattered into pieces. While Kim Yang, who was in a daze picking up the trampled snacks, turned her back, Maru stabbed the head that was lying around with the tip of a knife.

The knife didn’t go in well. I tried pushing it in again, but I felt strong resistance. It was too strong to just say it was hard and move on.

Bam-

A small pebble fell in front of Maru’s feet. When he looked up, he saw Kim Yang holding a torn piece of a bag. Kim Yang’s eyes were narrow and sullen.

Those eyes looked like they were made when something happened. Before asking, “Why?” Maru looked at the piece that Kim Yang was holding. There was a small button-like thing attached to the shoulder strap.

‘A small camera?’

‘That’s right. Camera.’

For a moment, Maru and Kim Yang exchanged glances.

‘A beginner?’

‘I’m a beginner.’

You’re a newbie and you’re a Virginia employee and you installed a spy camera?

Kim Yang’s gaze grew stronger.

‘Death in the line of duty?’

‘Are we going to kill him here?’

‘yep’

Maru shook his head. What should I do? If there is a camera here, there is a high probability that there is one on the road over there. Then did he see the fight? He must have seen it. Did he pass the data on to the company? He did, but if he dies on duty, he will be out.

‘Then when will he die?’

‘Not now, so wait.’

They say it’s a death in the line of duty no matter what. Why can’t they make him die in the line of duty?

Maru pretended not to notice and examined the body. A thick gold necklace hanging around the neck, ruby ​​cufflinks hanging from the ends of silk shirt sleeves.

He felt a sharp gaze from the side. Ms. Kim was staring intently at the gold necklace. Maru just let out a hollow laugh. Let’s step aside. It was Ms. Kim who was turning over the corpse with laughter.

Is that really so good? The sight of her looking through the corpses with a bright face without a care in the world was a bit… Well, that was true, but what can I do? She likes it.

Knock- Knock-

Maru struck the forehead of the severed head with the tip of the sword. There was a dull sound.

Knock- Knock-

The part where he fights the guy with the machete was probably not captured properly because of the dust. The only scene that was clearly captured was probably the part where Kim Yang and this guy fought.

Since you saw him get shot in the arms, legs, and torso, wouldn’t you try to secure the body? After you secure this guy’s body and do this and that, you’ll also take the body of the guy with the machete tear tattoo and do this and that?

Then, there was sure to come a moment when you’d think, ‘These guys are really weird after tearing them apart and licking them. But what about the kid who fought these guys and won?’

There was a clear difference between seeing it on video and having a real corpse as evidence. And there was also the difference between having a corpse and a living specimen. So the chain had to be broken.

“Miss Kim.”

“?”

“Take it all and burn it.”

“!”

At Maru’s serious expression, Kim Yang quickly gathered what she needed.

Knock- Knock-

Even after hitting it again, the severed head was still hard.

I definitely don’t think I’ll be able to ride it like that, and I hate doing that.

‘It’ll ride well if you make it a little smoother.’

The red flames rose fiercely.

A full-faced Kim and a nurse with a yellow face were collecting cash and gold. A horn could be heard from far away across the road.

Paaaaang!-

Bread!! Bread!!

Paaaaang!-

A truck with a trailer was coming at us at a rapid pace.

Judging by the continued honking of the horn, it must be telling him to stop, but what can he do? It’s too late. Maru chuckled and poured oil on the blazing fire.

Puhwahwaaaaah

The raging flames grew more intense.

Paaaaang!!!

Squeak

A worker got off the truck and ran like crazy holding a fire extinguisher.

“No! No!!”

An employee who is desperately trying to evolve.

Push-

Push-seek-

Although it was a fairly large fire extinguisher for a portable fire extinguisher, it was not enough to put out the raging fire.

“This···. This···.”

The employee who had collapsed on the ground muttered. Regardless, Maru cut the fuel tank he had taken out of the vehicle in half and threw it into the flames. The employee who had been blankly watching the flames shoot up like an explosion suddenly ran towards Maru.

“You! Do you know what you just did?”

“You burned it knowing what you were burning? Huh?”

“I destroyed the evidence! I destroyed the evidence!”

“Evidence directly related to the security of the United States…”

The large employee grabbed the slender Maru by the collar, but he didn’t budge. For a moment, an alien feeling came over the employee’s entire body.

The employee, who was shivering all over from the sensation of having ice water poured directly on his brain, released the hand that was holding his collar and staggered backwards. Maru smiled as he watched the employee.

“How far have you seen?”

“······.”

Kim Yang, who had been peeking out from behind the floor, said to the unresponsive employee,

“Baked?”

“······.”

If you cook it slowly, it will all blow up, whether you sucked medicine, had your mouth sewn shut, or were a rookie full-time employee.

“No. Why are you saying such scary things? The $180,000 man was surprised.”

“······.”

“Video. It hasn’t been uploaded yet, right?”

“······.”

If I had reported the video immediately, my phone would have been on fire. Even if it hadn’t been on fire, a helicopter would have come. Thank goodness. We wouldn’t have had to blush.

“thank god.”

That soft, quiet voice was like a cold blade. That’s what the employee thought. It felt like the blades aimed at my whole body were closing in on me from all sides. It was suffocating.

Ms. Kim approached the employee who was standing there motionless. She took out the employee’s cell phone, and gently opened the employee’s trembling fingers to unlock the fingerprint recognition.

“There is video.”

As Maru nodded, Ms. Kim erased the video and immediately threw the phone into the blazing fire.

“Hey. Should I buy you a better phone when you get there?”

“······.”

“Or should I give you money? Sure. Cash is best.”

“······.”

“How much? Ten thousand dollars? Twenty thousand dollars?”

“······.”

Maru was having an awkward conversation with the staff when suddenly Ms. Kim said something.

“What about the trailer?”

“······.”

“······.”

Trailer? Why a trailer all of a sudden?

Maru looked at Ms. Kim. There was a round truck right where Ms. Kim was looking. So the trailer behind it was gone, and only the head of the truck was there.

Kim Yang’s eyes, which had turned around quickly, gradually became duller. Gyawn- Kim Yang looked at the employee and spoke again.

“My money. And the trailer?”

“······.”

“······.”

Clank-

The gun was in Kim Yang’s hand, drawn at some point.

“Trailer. Where?”

“Well. I was in a hurry to get here, so I temporarily moved the trailer to speed things up…”

“Wait a minute? Where? Who’s tearing it?”

Kim Yang’s voice gradually sank lower.

“You can go now. You can go now.”

Kim Yang chased the employee who was running towards the truck, wiping away the goosebumps that had risen up once. ‘I told you I was watching you, didn’t I? I told you so. But you left the trailer behind?’ Kim Yang’s empty eyes stared at the employee.

‘Fucking crazy bastards.’

The employee ran like crazy with Ms. Kim sitting next to him. It was terrifying to think what had happened to the trailer.

Maru looked at the truck racing at full speed.

‘How did you get through it so well?’

Even if he was a rookie employee, he shouldn’t have died on duty now. Not only would it be bad to die on duty, but it wouldn’t have been good to have a rookie employee openly hostile towards him either. In any case, it would have been better to proceed peacefully and naturally until he settled down.

‘If you suddenly say you’re going to build a shelter, there’s a chance things will go wrong.’

A person who escaped from Japan and became a U.S. citizen, and the first thing he did was build a shelter? It was obvious that the Virginia company would think it was strange.

If we were going to build shelters and come up with countermeasures, we couldn’t be at odds with the US. We couldn’t create a problem. But the fucking cartels and gangs aren’t helping. These guys.

Hurrrrrurr

The floor, once again doused with oil from the blazing fire, tapped the floor. The red dirt soaked with blood dug deep. If it was going to continue to get entangled with cartels and gangs, it was time to think about it.

======

======

A small port town near Sagami Bay, Japan.

The amphibious vehicle drove through thick volcanic ash and smoke before spreading out.

Krrrrrr-

Tiryririk-

It wouldn’t start again.

“No, sir. You are wrong.”

“Throw it away. Divide the supplies and move. Is the radio still not working?”

“Yes. It’s a dead end.”

“How much distance is left?”

“Just go about 7~8km more. Knock knock knock.”

“There isn’t much left anyway. Don’t be stingy with the purifier and replace it.”

“Okay, sir, you go first.”

“Okay. Everyone, take a 10-minute break.”

The Andong-gu chief sat in the corner and changed the purification tank. The gray volcanic ash piled up to 3cm. The ruins covered in volcanic ash and smoke looked like a scene from the end of the world.

‘Fucking Director Yoo.’

Even when I was in World, I knew that Director Yoo was crazy, but I didn’t know that she would be so helpless. Who would have thought that after agreeing to a four-year ceasefire, she would come at me like she was giving me a dog?

“Chief!”

Director Ahn raised his head at the employee’s low voice. A searchlight was shining on the place the employee was pointing.

‘A searchlight in a place like this?’

“Prepare for battle.”

Clank- clank-

The staff took cover and aimed their guns. The shouting from beyond the searchlight became clearer.

“This is the United States Marine Corps···”
