Chapter 422 – 422. Spring Breeze 4
Everyone says hello one by one, but I reply as if nothing has happened and head towards the warehouse.
The gaze of the five women is a bit subtle, but… If I worry about every single thing, I won’t be able to live up to my name.
For now, let’s just pretend not to notice. Pretend not to know. Because there is a lot to do anyway.
“You arrived so quickly?”
“Well, that’s right.”
Since the portal was a bit far away, I opened the portal back to Cheongpyeong from the warehouse entrance.
It’s done now… What’s it like inside? It must be cold inside, right? I need to wear something.
I put on a parka from the storage and go inside. Wow. Cold. It’s like a frozen warehouse.
“What are these?”
“It looked like a squid.”
“Hmm… I can’t use this, right?”
“I guess so. Ah. Isn’t this a regression?”
“Well, I guess I’ll give it a try.”
When you use regression for things like industrial products, they return to their original state.
But this thing that looks like dried squid… When was your first appearance? When was it alive and breathing? As soon as you die? After drying?
Just in case, I took a frozen squid and used regression.
There appears to be no reaction. I shrugged my shoulders and said.
“Let’s just clean it up.”
“Okay. That would be better.”
“But… Where should I put it away?”
If you throw it outside, bugs from all over the neighborhood will happily gather and have a party.
That’s not very fun, is it? Ah. Okay. There is a good way.
“Is it all squid from here to here?”
A fairly large warehouse. Lots of squid boxes piled up there.
Seunggyu-hyung nodded, and I immediately opened the gate underneath the box.
The target is Wuhan airspace. A warp gate measuring 6.4 meters by 6.4 meters is laid on the floor, and all the boxes fall to the floor.
“Wow!”
Perhaps due to the difference in air pressure, the cold air inside the warehouse was sucked out, making the previously cold frozen warehouse a little less cold.
Repeat opening and closing the gate like that. Soon, all the unnecessary things disappeared from the warehouse, making it quite spacious.
“Now, Seunggyu and I can help there too. Follow us.”
We went through the gate to Cheongpyeong’s kitchen, then took the gate again and went to the logistics center.
Seung-gyu is constantly impressed by the gate that allows him to go back and forth comfortably, and Jae-hyun, who is visiting for the first time, looks around the logistics center with curiosity.
“How do I turn off the power in this warehouse?”
“Ah. I will do it.”
Seung-gyu went to one side and turned off the power to the warehouse.
The buzzing sound stops and the surrounding noise disappears.
“No one came after that?”
Seunggyu asks as he comes towards me again.
“Yes. There is no sign that anyone has opened this place.”
I checked the tapes I had marked and opened the warehouse door.
Cold air pouring out. I opened the door wide and Jaehyun looked inside and looked surprised.
“These are all MREs?”
It’s surprising. With MREs of this size, you don’t have to worry about starving to death for a long time.
Literally an incredible amount. I went into the still cold warehouse and immediately filled the storage room with boxes of MREs.
“You can take out the items inside the storage as you wish. So, look carefully.”
After passing through two gates again, I came to the frozen warehouse, opened the storage compartment, and lifted it from the bottom to the top.
Oh, the MRE boxes stacked neatly in rows. Seunggyu and Jaehyun make curious expressions as they look at the boxes piled up like that.
“The trick is not difficult, so you will learn it quickly. It will take a while to move all of this, so do it quickly.”
That’s how the work began.
Seunggyu’s storage isn’t that big, so it doesn’t help much, but he can still master it anyway, so he continues.
It’s fortunate that Jaehyun is a master at storing things, but… In the end, I do the most work.
This is true just by simple comparison. Even if the width, length, and height are 2 meters, it is only 8 cubic meters.
Jaehyun is about 64 cubic meters, and I am about 262 cubic meters. The size of the amount that can be entered is different.
After all, passive is the answer. I have no choice but to use my energy and improve my skill proficiency.
Perhaps because the travel distance was reduced to a minimum, the work progressed more easily than expected.
But actually, it’s like I’m doing everything. I don’t think there would have been much of a difference even if the two people weren’t there.
As we moved all the MREs from the distribution center, the sun was about to set.
Hey. It’s really a surprisingly large amount. Can I eat all of this?
“I’m really curious. Who brought this here?”
Seung-gyu mutters while looking at the empty distribution center.
Okay. It is still a mystery that has not been solved. To move this large amount, quite a lot of manpower and equipment would have been needed.
But now there is no way to find out. Ah. Is it possible that memory reading can also be done on objects?
I tried using it in the warehouse just in case, but it still didn’t work. Well, if it happens to things, it’s a bitch.
“It’s time to say goodbye to the logistics center.”
“That’s right. It was a place where all sorts of things happened.”
Seunggyu is slightly emotional. He wasn’t there very long, but it must have made quite an impression on him.
“Ah. On days like this, I have to eat black bean noodles.”
As I mumble, Seunggyu grins. Ah. I still regret saying it.
Jajangmyeon. That won’t even work as a regression. I just thought about it. I made a mistake.
No. If you go to Fence, wouldn’t there be at least one Chinese restaurant chef? You can get any number of ingredients, right?
Okay. There’s nothing that can’t be done. I think chicken would work too. The same goes for hamburgers.
In fact, I don’t think it would be very difficult to restore all those flavors if there was a regression.
Okay… I guess I should try this too.
‘In Search of the Lost Taste.’ Project. Okay. Okay. This is it.
There is nothing more important than what a person eats and makes a living.
No? If you go to SG City, isn’t it already there? Come to think of it, is that right? I’ll have to take a look next time I go.
“Then I will close the gate now.”
“Okay.”
The gate was closed. With this, the relationship with the logistics center completely ended.
All the people in the frozen warehouse returned to Cheongpyeong, and the portal there was also closed.
Now, everything to do in Cheongpyeong is done… There are still some left.
“Seunggyu hyung? Let’s talk.”
“Then can I go?”
“Okay. Good job.”
When I said that, Jaehyun looked slightly at me and left.
“Why is he like that?”
I was curious about Jaehyun’s attitude that changed in just one day, so I asked Seunggyu.
“I guess… I was a little shocked when I saw what you did yesterday.”
“Yesterday? Ah. SG Center?”
“Yes. There. I was shocked that such a place existed, and I guess I was also shocked to see what you were doing.”
“Is that worth it?”
“It’s us… Because we know at least a little bit about what you did and have seen it ourselves.”
“He’s a strange guy. At best, I didn’t kill him and saved him, but I guess I didn’t feel it at the time.”
“I think there was something like that. Did I lose because I was unlucky? That’s what you think?”
“Ugh. Damn.”
But did you notice the gap only after seeing what you did yesterday? Anyway, that guy is also a funny guy.
“But. What’s the story?”
“Ah. Are you going to do it here?”
Seunggyu and I are still standing in the kitchen.
Seunggyu must have felt that too, smiling and taking me to his room.
The VIP room I visited last time too. They both sit down on soft chairs and start talking.
“How is it? Is life okay here?”
“It couldn’t be better. The facilities are good, and there’s plenty of food. Actually, if you have those two things, there’s nothing to envy in this world, right?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Plus, the weather has gotten a lot warmer and everyone seems to be excited in one way or another.”
“Seunggyu hyung.”
“Huh?”
“Do you know it’s BFV?”
“BFV? Isn’t that a company that sells meat?”
“That’s right. You know.”
“There were a lot of advertisements… But why there?”
“There is a company somewhere in Gangwon-do.”
“I guess it’s in Chuncheon?”
“Huh? How do you know that?”
“I think I’ve heard it before. It’s not exactly true.”
“Hmm. Anyway, did you see what SG made yesterday?”
“Huh. I got a little creepy too.”
I kept SG and Daeho’s story short. And the story of BFV, Gyerim, and Lethe.
“The reason I say that is…”
“Be careful. It’s not that far from here to Chuncheon.”
“But even though the company is in Chuncheon, it is a livestock farming company, so I don’t think the actual workplace is in Chuncheon.”
“I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know the details. Anyway… It’s a large company that survived, so there could be something great about it.”
They can be said to be trivial compared to the crazy guys, but that doesn’t mean they are easy guys.
Moreover, considering the level of Cheongpyeong, it must be quite a threatening place.
Of course, they and Cheongpyeong are not yet intertwined or have any friction with each other, but they are physically close, so you have to be careful.
It may not be easy to find Cheongpyeong, who lives buried deep in the rugged mountains of Gangwon-do, but you never know what will happen to people.
“Be careful, right?”
“That’s right. I think it would be nice if I could kill them all with the people here and get some coins.”
“Huh? Attacking?”
“They’re going to eat them all anyway…”
Okay. SG’s Seo Min-jun is enough to keep him alive.
They cooperated and lived among themselves by sharing grains for some, daily necessities for others, and meat for others… It has no meaning anymore.
You can just do it all in one place, right? There are a lot of people in Cheongju anyway.
They probably set up the game that way to share hegemony among themselves, but it’s useless now.
“You’re living a complicated life.”
“I’m just deleting everything that could be dangerous. Just like always.”
“Yes. It’s not my place to say anything about what you do.”
“It would be best to hide and live without any threats. Without conflict or fighting. A life where you only produce enough to eat for yourself until you grow old and die. If that were possible, I would live that way… But would it be possible?”
“It’s unreasonable. Human greed is endless…”
“Repeat the same mistakes?”
“I know that.”
“I know. It’s a famous saying.”
“That’s not a famous saying.”
“Huh? Really?”
“Well, it’s long… Anyway, as long as the meaning is understood, it’s okay.”
“Anyway… I thought about that too. I learned about Gate, right? Furthermore, I’m going to move all the people from Cheongpyeong to islands like Hawaii or Guam.”
“Eh? Is that possible?”
“Why not? The problem is that people here will be stranded on the island without a gate?”
“It’s Hawaii. Wouldn’t it be safer to just go to an unknown island?”
“But there are no amenities on an island with an unknown name like that. There should at least be a hotel or something similar to make it livable.”
“Then, instead of such a major resort, just go to a less famous place.”
“I guess there is surprisingly no resistance?”
“Is there anything that can be said to be objectionable? Anyway, the infrastructure is gone, so it would be much better to go to a safe place like you said. Besides, I wouldn’t be bored in the sea of a resort like that.”
“It’s surprising.”
“I don’t know what other people think, but the safety of our members comes first. I wouldn’t be opposed to going to a safe place, wherever food production is possible.”
“I thought you wouldn’t like it if I moved again.”
“You’re not moving right away anyway, right?”
“That’s right. At least someone else in Cheongpyeong other than me can learn about the gate.”
“You’re not going to last forever, are you?”
“It can certainly be so. If nothing else, the coin is the problem.”
After saying that, there was silence for a moment.
Okay. In the end, that’s it. Coin. If you want to learn a good skill, you ultimately need coins, and to get coins, you have to kill.
It’s vicious. It is a set procedure from the point when coin transfer is not possible.
No. Even if the coins had been transferred, the world would have turned into a complete gutter.
However, it may have killed a little less people. I’m not sure about that either.
“Oh. I’ll go now.”
“Eat and go.”
“I don’t know why everyone tells me to eat and go when they see me.”
“That’s because you disappear all the time. If you’re Korean, you can’t help it. They want to feed you something.”
“Then I guess I’m Korean. I like my home.”
“Okay. How can I stop you?”
After standing up like that, I remembered something and opened my mouth again.
“Ah. Is that person going to be okay?”
When I spoke, Seunggyu thought for a moment and nodded.
“Uh, it’s okay. I think I can handle it.”
“Okay. If that’s the case, then that’s the way it is. Then I’ll go.”
“Yes. Ah. I was grateful yesterday. I guess I didn’t say it properly.”
“It’s not like we can thank each other for things like that. I’m really leaving.”
That’s how I teleported.
I think teleportation is perfect. Because it allows you to leave the place right away without having to hesitate.
