Chapter 232 – Zombie Apocalypse 3 (17)
After finishing my fortune-telling breakfast using Yeonyeongsingong (連影神功), I was about to go to sleep when I heard the sound of a glass bottle breaking outside.
“What is it?”
While worrying about waking up Naeun who was sleeping, I expanded the range of presence detection.
Is it on the left at the three-way intersection in front of the supermarket, in the direction where Hyorim High School is? I felt the presence of people on the road leading there.
In order to more accurately grasp a wider range, I mixed the Yeonyeomshingung (連炎神功) with presence detection.
Skill Link-Boost
Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功). Presence detection.
Presence detection-wave
The wave of heat spreading around me read the heat and gave me information in real time.
There were close to 30 people around the barricade on the west side, which was half the number of people in the supermarket.
I don’t think it came with a good meaning, but I think you have to see it for yourself and judge for yourself.
‘I’m glad you came after the lucky breakfast.’
When using fortune-telling techniques to improve internal energy, you become defenseless.
The car wash office is made of glass on all sides, so it is actually vulnerable to attacks.
I first woke Naeun up.
“Naeun.”
“Huh…? Xian?”
“There are a few people outside. I don’t know what they’re here for, but let’s come to our senses.”
“Are strangers coming to attack us?”
“First, I’m not sure. Come to your senses and hold the spear. I’ll go and check.”
If possible, I wanted to send it straight to the supermarket, but there was a high possibility that it would become a target if it went outside.
I’ll be wearing a military uniform, so that’s fine, but it would be better for Naeun to stay in the office.
“Okay. Don’t hurt me?”
Naeun said as he looked at me, holding the iron spear tightly with both hands.
“At least no one in Korea will hurt me.”
I gave him a brief kiss on the forehead, pulled out my bone sword, opened the car wash door slightly, and used a spirit fight on my way out.
She covered the shadows, completely obliterating her presence, and slowly approached the group.
Pushyyyy
As I got closer, the sound I heard was the sound of the wind falling.
Are you going to puncture your car’s tires?
“Quickly. Quickly.”
“We need to eliminate mobility.”
Why did I hear the sound of a glass bottle breaking? When I looked for the remains of the glass, it seemed like the streetlight had been broken to hide it.
First, we didn’t have car keys, so we saw people drilling holes in the wheels of cars used as barricades.
I was making a puncture by stabbing it several times with a spear made by tying a kitchen knife together, and I don’t know what I was doing.
It would be better to attack the entrance of our supermarket.
With that in mind, I looked at the weapons the 30 people had.
Most of them had spears and one person had a bow.
I can’t believe I’m now seeing a weapon that could be said to be one of the most powerful weapons before the advent of bows and guns.
Since the woman holding the bow was not aiming at the entrance to the mart, I did not suppress her but instead watched her.
There were six cars zigzagged on the west side of the mart, and it seemed like the mart gatekeeper had already discovered them when he was drilling a hole in the wheel of the third car outside.
“There are a lot of people in the west!!!”
When a woman’s sharp voice was heard, the suspicious people began to act a little more aggressively.
“Move! Quickly!”
Now, it seemed like they were trying to hit all the remaining vehicles at the same time, rather than blowing them up one by one.
If the number had been small, I would have considered suppressing them, but there were too many.
I stood behind the bowman who was trying to aim his bow, held his neck tightly with my hands, and held out the bone knife.
“Huh?! Where?!”
“Hey! Everyone stop! Where did you come from?!”
When they heard my voice, people who were running toward the car in front stopped and looked back.
I slowly dragged the bowman into the place illuminated by the streetlight.
Even in the supermarket, I could feel the commotion as if people were trying to come out.
“Now. You better tell me why you did this shit at night and where you came from. If you don’t tell me, I plan to kill you all.”
“Fuck! Where did it come from…! I should have seen it right!”
“AC!!! It really exists!”
And then one guy started running away.
There’s no need to keep that many alive, but when one guy started running away, everyone started running away except for the bowman who was caught by me.
“What?”
“Ha…”
The archer who saw that smiled and said to me as if it was absurd.
“You’re not going to kill them?”
“No. I didn’t know they would all just run away like this. Are you on bad terms with them?”
“I don’t know.”
“Do you plan on cooperating?”
“I thought I wouldn’t tell you even if I get caught or die, but I’m just going to tell you everything. You bastards.”
If I were in the same situation, I would betray you unconditionally.
The spearmen from the supermarket crossed the barricade and approached me.
“Mr. Xian, what… Who are you?”
“I don’t know either. Now let’s find out slowly.”
“But I saw quite a few people. What did they do?”
“You exploded the car wheel?”
“You did something annoying.”
A search team member wrapped tape around the woman’s hands as she held them out in front of her.
After retrieving the bow and arrows, I handed the woman over to Su Hue, and I took Naeun into her mart.
*
Seongtae Choi, who can be said to be our representative, stood in front of the woman kneeling like a criminal in the center of the supermarket.
The inside may have healed to some extent, but the face is covered with bandages, so people who see it for the first time may feel intimidated.
“Name.”
Seongtae Choi said in a cold voice.
“Seo Ye-ji.”
The bowman revealed his name as Seo Ye-ji.
Seongtae Choi, who heard that, quietly spoke to the search leader next to him.
“Let’s shake off your clothes and check your ID.”
“Yes.”
“Nothing! My name is Seo Ye-ji, it’s real!”
Another search team member prevented the archer from getting up from his seat and twisting his body, and what the search leader found while groping the archer’s body was a smartphone.
Actually, that alone is enough.
When the search leader shook his smartphone slightly, Seongtae Choi nodded.
Seo Ye-ji’s hand was forcibly opened, her fingerprint was taken, and the lock was unlocked.
The search leader used a few touches to find the information and told it to Choi Seong-tae.
“The name is Seo Ye-ji.”
“That’s right. How could I lie to an abandoned yard? Mr…”
To be honest, I’m being careful because I don’t understand why more than 30 people would come and then abandon them just because one person was captured.
“Where did you belong with the people you came with?”
“Is it Hyorim High School now…? Before that, it was university.”
The people I came with all seemed to be around my age, but they all seemed to be from university.
“Whew… Is there a reason you burst the car’s tires?”
“There’s an assassin here, right? I’ve been ordered to round up the vehicle and pop the wheels because the people in the supermarket are about to leave.”
“When you say assassin, you mean the person who killed everyone in the university overnight.”
“And he wiped out a group of zombies in one go. I saw a few of them a few days ago. Slaughtering zombies together with a woman.”
It seems that Ji Sang-su did not completely control the information.
But to keep this crazy thing from leaving me at night? Then, it is understandable that the midnight guests abandoned Calligraphy and ran away.
Because they can’t help but think of me as an assassin who appeared from the shadows and overpowered Seo Ye-ji.
Seo Ye-ji slowly turned her head as if examining the faces of the people around her, but she couldn’t find my face because she had never seen it.
So I looked at Seongtae Choi, who was interrogating him again.
“Seo Ye-ji said that there was an assassin with great power at the supermarket near Hyorim High School. People at the supermarket, including the assassin, showed signs of leaving, so they tried to make vehicles unusable at night. Is that right? “
“That’s right… Wait a minute, I thought I heard you call the person who captured me Mr. Xian? Isn’t that man an assassin?”
A spearman at a supermarket called me once.
However, everyone at the supermarket just looked at Seo Ye-ji as if they had made an appointment and did not move their gaze to me.
“What does Seo Ye-ji and those people have to gain by doing it, so why did you apply?”
Choi Seong-tae ignored Seo Ye-ji’s question and asked a question.
“We decided to officially accept additional food and Hyorim High School.”
“It looks like the new people who joined Hyorim High School last time were officially accepted.”
“The old guys are hogging the supplies that should have been killed. If the Chairman hadn’t done that, they would have been killed by today… Because of the assassin, the plan was ruined.”
Seo Ye-ji seems to be a reformist person.
Don’t you know Jeong Hye-joo? She said now was not the right time to ask.
“You were taken advantage of.”
Seongtae Choi thought for a moment and said.
“It must have been taken advantage of.”
“I don’t think those old men have completely hardened their minds. They probably did this because they wanted Mart’s forces, including the assassin, to leave quickly. Then their control would become stronger. They are afraid of the assassin who can kill them no matter where they are hiding. It’s the shape.”
“You’re not telling the assassin to leave, you’re telling him to leave…?”
Choi Seong-tae nodded in response to Seo Ye-ji’s question.
“The assassin seemed a little friendly towards Hyorim High School, and if they let them down like this, they probably thought they would just leave without killing them and went ahead with it. If you blow up a tire, wouldn’t the assassin notice? And where? Can’t we find out if he came?”
‘But isn’t Seongtae talking on the assumption that the assassin is me?’
The people at the mart were also listening, and it seemed like not only Naeun but everyone at the mart thought I did it.
Is it because you recently taught me female skills? Even if I do something really strange, I guess everyone will do that?
“Ha… Mr… So, for our safety, rather than keeping the assassin nearby, you wanted to make him leave, and you also expected us to spill some information?”
“If my guess is correct, then yes. If I release you, will you calmly return to Hyorim High School?”
“If I don’t go back…? I don’t think the supermarket will be in the mood to accept me?”
“Yes. Because we met as enemies.”
“I can shoot a bow… And um… I’m a woman…”
It seemed like he was trying to point out the good things about accepting him into the supermarket, so I came forward and said something.
“Were the pigs convinced that the assassin was in the supermarket?”
“Ah. You! It’s you. Yes. I think I’m sure. Because I didn’t send them to where the other groups were.”
Seo Ye-ji said as she nodded, probably remembering my voice.
“Can you two please take this guy to the rooftop?”
“Wait a minute? Why on the rooftop!”
I picked up two familiar search team members and asked for them, and the two dragged Seo Ye-ji to the rooftop of the supermarket.
And I said this to the remaining people in the supermarket.
“Do you guys even think that I went to college?”
“Well… If you’re not Mr. Xian, you can’t do such a ghostly thing, right?”
“If Mr. Xian says he didn’t do it, you’ll think he didn’t do it.”
“Because it’s better to have that person on our side.”
An insurmountable force is actually on our side! That’s good.
Seongtae Choi was also nodding his head weakly.
“So should I hunt pigs or not?”
A heated debate began to unfold on the topic.
Everyone at the supermarket slept today.
