RUST -50

Ms. Kim ran with her little doll.

I ran while occasionally taking out tear gas and smoke grenades from the doldol. As the tear gas and smoke grenades decreased, the doldol became lighter and lighter. However, the heaviness of the doldol floor did not seem to change. It was a satisfying heaviness.

So, the weight of gold? The delivery fee for safely delivering the double for hotel owner Sim Eun-young to the vicinity of Royal Marina is 4kg of gold. Even if you can’t eat it, it’s still worth it.

Push-

Puhwaaaaaaaah-

Tear gas and smoke bombs sprayed white smoke in all directions.

Shim Eun-young’s body double, was it called Kakemusha in Japanese? Shadow warrior? Anyway, she was a woman who looked exactly like the Charlotte Hotel president. I almost got fooled myself. I knew because we had dinner together yesterday, otherwise I wouldn’t have noticed.

As I ran hard and thought about it, I felt a bit strange. If I hadn’t noticed, I wouldn’t have known it was a body double and just acted as a bodyguard. And I brushed it off because of the advance payment I received yesterday. Is that why I feel so gloomy?

The Charlotte Hotel was built on a hill, so after escaping the siege, it was easy to run along the gently sloping slope. The wheelbarrow I was pulling also rolled down the slope automatically, so it took less effort.

But why do I still feel uneasy?

When I glanced behind me, I saw the hotel manager’s substitute, and, um- the man who brought me the bag of money yesterday. That is, the man who shuttled the bag. And finally, this director who was scouted for annoying me? This section chief who got promoted? These three people were following me around, throwing something around.

It was a round thing that looked like plastic. They were scattering it in all directions like sowing seeds. Kim Yang had seen small ankle mines before. They were about 100g, but the ones they were scattering now were much smaller than the small ankle mines Kim Yang had seen. Is it like an alarm that sounds when stepped on?

‘What are you doing? You should just go down and get stabbed.’

When I came down the hill and thought about it, it was definitely true. At this point, shouldn’t we each go our separate ways? Ms. Kim slowed down. As Ms. Kim slowed down, the people following her also slowed down.

“There. Mr. Lee? We’re almost down the hill, near the Royal Marina. Are we going to be torn apart now?”

Manager Lee Ki-young said with an expression like, ‘Hey, what’s going on like that again?’

“We are also going to Royal Marina. Just go ahead. We will go quietly on our own.”

Huh? What does this mean?

“You asked me to deliver it only to the vicinity of Royal Marina? But you’re going to Royal Marina?”

“Yes. If I just pretend to run away on a boat, wouldn’t Director Kim and the World kids rush over to me?”

Royal Marina. By the way, isn’t our ship there too?

Dangerous. Yes, that was the cause of the unease. Somehow, a chill ran down my spine and goosebumps began to appear. It felt dangerous.

What if Charlotte and the company fight there? Won’t Baekjeong pop out?

Just imagining the butcher pulling out his sword with an angry face really gave me goosebumps.

If this continues, it’ll look like I’m the one dragging Charlotte’s kids into a fight and dragging Director Kim and the company employees away, right?

So, if Baekjeong sees this situation now, he’s out?

“Wait a minute. So you’re saying you’re going to go all the way to Royal Marina with Director Kim and the company employees behind you?”

Kim Yang’s words became a little urgent. At that moment, there was a sound of something exploding in the distance. Not a grenade, but half that? A half-and-half explosion? And a suppressed scream? Was that little thing you threw earlier a landmine?

The manager was relaxed, as if he knew what that sound meant.

“Yes. It’s almost time for our kids to arrive at Royal Marina, so we just need to run a little longer and hold on. Once our kids arrive, we can just attack them from the front and back. So, if you could help us out a little, Miss Kim, that would be great.”

A small explosion and groan, slightly closer than before.

Help? What? What the hell is this…

No. This is not it. This is definitely the Baekjeong ending. I want to get out of here.

“I’m telling you this because I have a lot of feelings for you. If you go into Royal Marina like this, you’ll all be screwed. Okay? I told you clearly. I’m getting out of here. Okay.”

I warned you because there was a heavy burden on the Dol Dol. I delivered it safely to the vicinity of Royal Marina as per the contract. So now I am not responsible. Ms. Kim made a good-luck- expression and really went off on a side road.

Before Manager Lee Ki-young could say anything, Ms. Kim ran off into the side street, dragging her carrier around.

“Ha- What the heck···.”

This manager was a little appetizing. I was disappointed with Kim Yang’s firepower. When I made the request, he seemed strangely reluctant to go to Royal Marina, so I changed it to near Royal Marina, but he really only accompanied me to the vicinity and then ran away.

“Now that we’re all here, let’s go ahead with the plan.”

It would have been better if Team Leader Ahn had brought the kids over a little deeper, but this wasn’t bad enough to catch Director Kim.

Phew! Ugh!

There was another small bang and a scream. It was definitely getting closer.

Kim Soo-hyun’s expression is worth seeing. Beyond the thick smoke created by tear gas and smoke grenades, the murderous intent was drawing near.

Whyeeeeee- After the siren sound ended, an announcement came on.

[Royal Marina Management Office will be providing an announcement. Today, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, we will begin a joint counter-terrorism training exercise in the Royal Marina and surrounding areas. Accordingly, communications will be blocked and traffic will be restricted in the area from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Those who are experiencing inconvenience are requested to move out of the training area before the time.]

[I will give you another update. Starting at 9 AM today… communications will be blocked and traffic will be restricted… so please move out of the training area.]

“Isn’t that it?” Maru looked at Gi-sun, and Gi-sun shook her head and said.

“There was no mention of this type of training at the marina management office yesterday.”

“Then that means Marina is also involved.”

Ki-soon added more to Maru’s words.

“And by putting pressure on the Marina office like this, they are manipulating things on a large scale.”

“So you’re saying that the World Group intervened in the Charlotte Civil War?”

Maru continued what Gi-sun said.

Hah- Fuck. Maru was annoyed. Did it have to be like this today? Couldn’t it have been like this tomorrow?

Change the location, or why the Charlotte Civil War all the way to World? Why the Royal Marina here, when all the other marinas are just like that?

“I thought it might get involved if a civil war broke out because it’s the closest marina to the Charlotte Hotel, but now that it really has, it’s awkward.”

Ki-sun couldn’t hide her embarrassed expression.

A sound from a distance, bang! A small explosion followed by a groan.

Maru winked at Gi-sun. ‘Hey, did you hear that?’ Gi-sun nodded.

There’s still 15 minutes until 9 o’clock. What the hell.

If the Charlotte kids run away and say, ‘Give me the yacht.’ What about my money on the yacht? After all the hardships I’ve gone through, they’re taking the boat? That can’t be happening.

Maru said, taking off his shirt and putting on his bulletproof vest.

“Just in case, dress warmly and pull the boat out to the sea in front of you. You won’t get caught up in anything.”

Boom! A low explosion and a groan, coming closer again. Something exploded, but the victim didn’t scream, but swallowed it. It’s not like there was no groan at all, but didn’t they scream?

Hmm. These people are poisonous.

When I looked in the direction of the sound, the smoke was thick like fog, as if they were catching raccoons. I could smell something spicy, and my eyes felt a little bitter.

“Gisun, damn it, looking over there, it looks like they’re throwing out tear gas and smoke grenades without any mercy. Are we going to be able to set sail right away?”

“Uh- The engine is also the latest model and the propulsion method is a water jet type, so it will get out of the marina in no time.”

He put on his tactical vest, strapped on a holster, and put a pistol in it.

What else do you need? First, you need something to block your view. Maru, who had smoke grenades hanging from his vest, kicked one of the wooden crates stacked in the corner.

The box lid shattered, revealing the contents inside. There were knives, axes, shovels, and such. Among them, Maru took out two Japanese swords of an American brand made in China. They were durable enough to last a while when used in World Livestock.

“Go right away when I get off. And don’t stick your head out carelessly. If you’re going to stick your head out, what is that? A selfie stick? Stick it out with that and I’ll take a look.”

Even though he made a strange sound, Maru jumped down as if he had done something.

Ki-sun muttered as she saw the back of Maru.

“But why is the sashimi hanging in the back?”

======

======

Director Kim was furious. They were the bastards who had set off tear gas and smoke grenades and then laid ankle mines on the ground. It took a while to check the ground because of the thick smoke, and if it took that long, they would definitely miss them.

There was a situation where they couldn’t properly warn the scattered employees due to the jamming. As expected, more and more employees were getting injured in their ankles. Fortunately, it wasn’t a small landmine that was scattered, so it didn’t blow off the entire ankle, but out of the 16 people chasing them, 6 were unfairly injured in the ankle and were eliminated.

Kill kills.

Director Kim Soo-hyun felt like he was going to die from the heat that reached the tips of his hair. And near the marina. As a strong wind blew, the thick smoke that had been blocking his vision suddenly disappeared.

That’s the scene that caught Director Kim’s eye.

A ship that looks like it’s about to leave the dock in a hurry.

That’s it.

That was it.

The guys are crazy. Director Kim is having a seizure.

“Fuck, stop that! Stop that thing! Stop that thing!”

The employees in front of Director Kim ran forward and started firing machine guns with silencers.

Sparks flew into Maru’s eyes when he saw that.

‘Hey, these kids are just shooting guns without saying anything?’

Maru, who was hiding behind a pallet of fruits and vegetables to be loaded onto the yacht, reached into the box. Without even checking to see what he had caught, he threw it away.

stroke-

Quick-

A sweet potato exploded, hitting the face of the employee at the very front. The employee’s arm was raised into the air after being hit by the sweet potato.

Tudadadada-

dump-

At that absurd sight, the staff members who were about to shoot at the yacht switched to a state of alert.

Maru quickly threw another one.

Whoosh-

puck-

The apple that had hit his face exploded. One of the employees fell backwards as if he had been hit by a rock.

“Take off your gas mask! Clear your vision!”

Director Kim followed right behind and shouted.

Kang- Push-shi-shi-shik

Toong- Pasisisik

The smoke started to thicken as Maru threw a smoke grenade and exploded, but it quickly began to clear due to the wind.

‘shit.’

Maru, wearing a bulletproof mask that looked like a ski mask, drew his sword and jumped into the smoke. Beyond the hazy smoke, he could feel the staff standing back to back and keeping watch. His heart pounding felt like it was beating slowly. It felt like the blood in his entire body was burning brightly.

Weeeeeing- tak

My body was thrown out like a bullet, leaving behind the sound of footsteps taking place forward.

At the sight of Maru shooting out like a bullet through the smoke, one employee was about to reflexively pull the trigger, but the blade he swung struck the employee’s forearm.

puck!

Still!

‘It doesn’t get cut?’

Maru took advantage of the momentum from his run and slammed his body into the employee’s body.

bang!

An employee who was thrown as if hit by a car bumped into the employees next to him. Director Kim aimed his gun at Maru as the employees fell like bowling pins.

bang-

Bam!

Something hit Director Kim in the chest along with the sound of a gunshot. Despite wearing a bulletproof vest and a bulletproof vest, Director Kim stopped breathing due to the pain that felt like his ribs had been torn off.

Thud- The thing that had hit my chest fell to the floor. My eyes instinctively looked down. What I saw on the floor was a rose-patterned sword.

“What the fuck?”

Was it 0.1 seconds? My eyes only looked down for a moment, and then the other person disappeared.

Director Kim raised his arm reflexively.

Kwajik-

A blade that fell over a pair of work gloves.

The bulletproof sword’s performance was good, so it didn’t get cut, but it couldn’t completely dissipate the impact.

Pain felt in the forearm that blocked the knife.

Kwuuuk – the pressure of being crushed.

Director Kim had never heard anyone complain about his strength being weak, but this was…

Before I could feel anything, Director Kim threw himself down as if he was falling down.

Pick-

There was a sound of air being cut, and a knife was cut where Director Kim had been.

What. This. Idiot···.
