Sleepman of a Ruined World 203

Chapter 203 – 203. Deteriorating Management 4

“There is a man named Ko Young-jun. Approximately in his 40s. He was a doctor until the world fell apart.”

“Doctor? It’s the most useless profession right now.”

“That’s right. Just by healing and dispelling diseases, even the diseases that humanity could not overcome were cured. People who were so sick actually liked how the world turned out like this. I can understand that feeling, though.”

“So?”

“He was a man who had a private practice. I… Furthermore, I lost my boyfriend to that man and lived as his plaything for about two years.”

“Two years? Not until recently?”

“Yes.”

“How? Did the man make a mistake? In most cases, he wouldn’t lose sight of a woman he caught.”

“Hehe… There’s no way that thorough and cunning guy could make such a mistake. Sold. To another man. For only 30 cans.

“Ha…”

“‘You’re a pretty nice girl, but I don’t need her if she’s over 30.’ That’s the last thing he said…”

“Wow. That kid isn’t normal either. So?”

“The guy who bought me was dumber than that guy Go Young-jun. Even though my skill was stunning, he let his guard down and ended up getting killed by me.”

“Hmm. That’s good. And?”

“I went back to the hospital after half a year to get revenge… But no one was there. He had already disappeared somewhere.”

“Are you sure you’re gone? Are you dead?”

“I thought so too. When you die, your body disappears, so I wasn’t sure if he was dead or gone. But his car was gone and some of his belongings were missing, so I kept looking for him just in case. Then, about six months later, I heard that he had been seen again.”

“You mean he’s not dead?”

“Yes.”

“So where are you now?”

“I don’t know that.”

“Is that the end?”

“I’m doing this because it’s the end.”

“Hmm… But I don’t understand.”

“What is it?”

“Your skill. I understand that the second skill was reflex, but why did you use the third skill as storage? There would have been more other skills to get revenge.”

“No. For revenge, my third skill, storage, is the most suitable.”

“Really? Don’t you need to acquire skills more suited to combat?”

“No.”

Minhee speaks quite firmly. Since you are so adamant, I have nothing to say.

What… I guess I have my own thoughts. It’s not for me to argue about that.

“What was the information I heard later?”

“There is a man in his 40s who wears charms in Bundang. We have similar facial expressions.”

“Then you’re not sure?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Bundang. Where was that man’s original hospital?”

“Gangnam.”

“So in the end, we haven’t gotten any information since then?”

“Yes.”

“Isn’t it easy? You mean you’re not even sure if he’s alive?”

“No. That bastard will still be alive. He won’t die easily. In a way, he’s a man like you.”

“What? Is it a compliment? Is it an insult?”

“Hehe. Think for yourself.”

I’m not sure if everything this woman says is true or not. Because she wasn’t charmed.

But I decided to trust it. At least when Minhee expressed her anger, it wasn’t an act or a lie.

If even that is called acting… That’s great just the way it is. The film industry has lost a great actress.

“Okay, then let’s do it like this. You’re going to Bundang, right?”

“I guess so. There’s nothing to get involved with now.”

“Then, go and get information. And let’s meet at Cheonho Station on January 8th.”

“Cheonho Station? Why?”

“You are too weak to do anything like that.”

Minhee looks a little upset, but can’t open her mouth.

Of course. Because that’s true.

She won’t have anything to say, even if she has ten mouths, because I’ve easily subdued her right in front of her.

“Never push yourself, just get information. Then come to Cheonho Station that day. If you want revenge, you need to become more useful. It’s not enough right now. There are too many loopholes.”

“Why on earth do you care so much about me? I still don’t understand it? I don’t think I’m that valuable.”

“It’s my heart. Don’t complain about my whims. I don’t know my feelings either. I just think that the mole under your eye saved your life.”

“Dot? This? Tear point?”

“Ah. Isn’t that a charm point? Is it called a tear point?”

“It is called a tear point, and it is also called a charm point…”

“Whatever. Anyway, just think of it as saving your life. If it wasn’t for that, you would have already died.”

“I really thought… I thought the doctor was the craziest person in my life… But that wasn’t the case.”

“Hmm. This sounds like a compliment.”

Minhee stood up.

She looks at me and says, with her own coat draped over the back of her sofa.

“January 8th, Cheonho Station? What time?”

“Well, should we do it at noon?”

“Where should I go to Cheonho Station? It’s huge, right?”

“Oh. Have you been there?”

“During new company training.”

“Ah… That damn company. So you must have gone inside too? I heard there is a department store there, do you know where it is?”

“Department store? Oh, there?”

“Okay. See you on the first floor of the department store.”

“What if I don’t come out?”

“Then what… Someday, when we meet again, I will kill you right away.”

“I guess I’ll have to run away for the rest of my life.”

“Yes. If I can.”

Minhee chuckled. Then he opens his inventory and takes out something.

“Sleep.”

“What is this?”

“Open it when I get there. It’s a gift to you for saving my life. I don’t need it right now, but I’ll take it with me no matter what.”

“What is it? Can’t I open it now?”

“Yes. I’ll open it after I’m gone. About when it disappears from detection? I’ll see you on January 8th, right? See you then.”

Minhee leaves without looking back.

What is it that makes people so curious?

I watch her through detection.

A woman going down and moving further and further away.

You can open it now without having to listen to her, but just do as she tells you.

It’s not like a bomb or anything, right? Ah. Gunpowder is gone, right?

Once she was gone from detection I opened her box that she had given me.

What’s this… Gas mask?

For a moment, a shiver ran down my spine.

A gas mask. What is this?

Did they install poison gas?

But my doubts were quickly erased. He said he didn’t need it yet and asked to see me on January 8th.

Besides, there is no reason to go to such trouble to kill him. If I had killed him, I would have killed him earlier.

Whatever it was, I felt quite dizzy. Ah-oh… My heart is still pounding.

On the way back to the bunker.

The company issue was resolved neatly, but I am extremely concerned about Minhee’s actions at the end.

Requires storage skills and a gas mask.

This woman… What on earth are you trying to do?

The first thing that came to mind was something like chemical or biological weapons.

This is a world where all gunpowder has disappeared.

In such a world, the most effective weapons remaining would be chemical weapons or biological weapons.

However… Can you make that? No… I guess I can make it. Because it was originally made by people.

Or you could just use something that has already been created.

Whatever it was, it was something I could never have imagined. It’s a chemical weapon, but how does Minhee know that?

Even though I only lasted one semester, I didn’t dare to get caught at all even though I was a chemistry major in college.

I’ll definitely ask you next time I see you. This is so… This is the first time I’ve ever felt this chill for something that wasn’t a skill.

But can chemical weapons be used? There’s no way the guys who stopped the gunpowder could have left something like that.

I don’t know. When it comes to specialized areas like this, there is nothing I can do as a non-expert.

Okay. Who should I ask this? If my major professor had been alive when I was in school, I would have at least asked him about it. Umm… The professor must be dead, right?

Ha. Did you leave Minhee alive for no reason? I think I did something very stupid.

Was it really a good thing to let go and believe in the promise to see you again on January 8th?

It turns out that Minhee is the director of the company, and it’s possible for her to go back like this and drag all the company guys out to kill me, right?

As I was going through this strange delusion, a thought occurred to me.

As expected, I have severe delusions. Of course, sometimes this helps… It’s too much now.

Done. Don’t worry about it.

If I let my imagination run wild like this, I’ll only get tired.

If you have a delusion like this, it is also possible to delusion that Seunghee is the shadow of everything and is a transcendent being who created the world like this, that Mina, Se-ah, and Anna are all actors, and that the people of the world are watching me live on TV.

Wow. When I think about it, this is also terrible. But is such a program fun?

I think the viewership ratings are shit.

Anyway, let’s refrain from delusions that go beyond the limit.

If you saved me, let’s believe that I saved you. You saved four people in the camp. If you start delusional like this, there will be no end.

Let’s think differently. If possible… Something like a coin.

By capturing the guys from this company, the harvest was quite large.

First, coin. Killing 7 people and killing 700,000 people is still sweet.

The more skills people have, the more coins they have, which is great.

If he had caught that manager before he got his fourth skill, he could have gotten a little more. That’s a little disappointing.

And skills. Phase out.

It’s a trick skill that only people hear about… First, I really like the damn hard counter of detection.

Anyone who has used detection like me has no choice but to rely on the deceptiveness of detection.

The downside to detection is that maintenance costs are high. There is only one thing.

What a hard counter for such detection. It’s an incredible ability. Depending on how you write, this skill is more useful than any other skill.

I’m curious about how long it lasts… It won’t be like this for just 5 seconds or 10 seconds.

At least, the time the manager walked to the lounge outside of detection range was more than a minute.

They say it’s not short.

Plus, you can climb over walls? I don’t even recognize it? Well, it’s the best escape.

Although it was resolved by invalidating wide-area skills, it is hard to see it as a disadvantage. How many people have mastered this skill?

Besides, no one would pack it up randomly anywhere.

The manager just had bad luck. Why am I among them…

Anyway, it is a coveted skill. So much so that I want to learn right away.

Moreover, the biggest harvest.

Jeong Se-hee’s whereabouts of that bitch.

Ha… I finally caught the tail. Moreover, it is in such an unexpected place.

Castle. The next target is the castle.

The gardens in Uijeongbu are gardens, but I also need to sweep the castle quickly.

This is so… There’s a lot to do.

Finally, the bunker is visible.

Even though it was a short outing, it seems like a lot happened.

Let’s go in and rest first. I need to rest to sort out this complicated brain. It’s hard to even think now.
