Episode 86 [ Those Following the Trace (1) ]
“Is it really my money?”
“The account has been verified. There was also a rental safe. The account name was Hefei, and it was opened using a password and fingerprint recognition.”
“Then that’s right. “It’s the money your father left you.”
She seemed to know the password her father left behind.
“Hmm... That must be quite a lot of money, right?”
“We don’t know that much, but labor and management have been chasing it, so it’s probably not a small amount of money.”
The legacy she left behind for her daughter is what has been giving her a hard time. But she showed no signs of resentment.
Gyeonghoon returned the notebook to Jin Xiawei.
“With the money in here, I think you can live without envy wherever you go?”
Jin Xiawei looked at the notebook and smiled strangely.
“What did you bring this notebook for when I leave?”
Kyung-hoon shrugged his shoulders at her words,
“Then I have no choice but to hold on to my pants and complain.”
Of course, there was no guarantee that it would end with just complaints.
“It’s a face that looks like it will never let you go.”
Kyung-hoon shook his head at Jin Xia-wei’s words.
“As long as you don’t belong to another organization or country, I can give you a very long paid vacation.”
“Look at that. “They never say they’ll let me go.”
She opens her notebook and
squeaks.
I tore the last page of the notebook.
“sleep. I’m a hostage. “Please give it to me later when you don’t need me.”
Jin Xiawei handed Kyung Hoon a torn page.
“I’m grateful for what you’ve done so far, but even if it weren’t for that, I’ll still be by Kyung-hoon’s side. “My senses are still singing that I am safe only when I am next to Kyung-hoon.”
Kyung-hoon still didn’t know what that feeling was talking about, but he was glad that the matter ended well.
“Instead, this new contract must be written properly.”
They gave me a card with no limit, but I couldn’t compare it to a proper down payment and annual salary.
“All right. We will make it so that you will no longer need to look at this account in the future. “We will make you a rich person that no one can ignore.”
“No, not to that extent...”
Jin Xiawei made an embarrassed expression at Kyung-Hoon’s words.
But Kyung-Hoon was sincere. It was possible with just her characteristics.
-If she can extract enough quantity, the potion can be used to create the world. “We can occupy one-third of the pharmaceutical market.
Although it was in the future, Eve also agreed with Kyung-hoon.
Honestly, it didn’t matter if he gave all the money he made from potions to Jin Xia-wei. All Kyung-hoon had to do was take care of distribution.
” That’s right. People have come to help Jin Xiawei. They are Chinese, but they don’t speak Korean yet. If you comfort them well and bring them in. “Are you
sure you’re trying to put someone in charge of it again!”
Jin Xia Wei glared at Kyung Hoon at the words he quietly said
. – That’s as expected. That’s why I told you that you’d get caught.
Eve said to Kyung Hoon as if she felt pathetic.
* * *
Kyung Hoon put his eyes on the scope, recalling the conversation that happened a few days ago.
Fortunately, Jin Xia Wei welcomed the women from China. It was because he heard their stories of what had happened to them by the Triads. Thanks to this, Kyung-hoon was able to come back to this world with peace of mind. In his scope, he saw a monster wandering the desolate field. It was
big
. It was the size of a large hunting dog, but it looked like a weasel.
Fusuk!
A bullet was fired from a rifle with a silencer.
The bullet flew more than 500 meters and passed through the monster’s head.
Whimpering.
As the monster fell, monsters all over the field raised their heads. I heard.
Gyeong-hoon silently fired his gun at the next monster.
Kaaaaaa!
As the weasel-like monsters fell one after another, the monsters started running towards Kyung-hoon. An
Eve said in a slightly ambiguous voice:
-...The strategic movements of the monsters were discovered in the traces left behind. .
The drone discovered traces of giant monsters that swept next to the destroyed tanks
. -Detour maneuvers and timed attacks were confirmed.
The appearance of a tank with some of its armor melted and its interior shattered was confirmed.
-In addition, there were different types of tanks . Several other monsters were also found to have passed the test.
“Does that mean that a monster army made up of various types of monsters used a strategy to collapse the defense line?”
Eve answered Kyung-hoon’s question with a reluctant expression.
-...Yes, at that time, tens of thousands of monsters were under command and fought in perfect order in this plain alone. It is clear that there was a proper command system.
Kyung-hoon was different from other people . I’ve seen monsters commanding monsters, and I’ve also seen monsters forming camps.
But monsters that form an army and advance.
“It’s an army of monsters that use supernatural powers and can’t be hurt with ordinary weapons... An ordinary army is no match for them. “It will work.”
Gyeong-hoon seemed to know why the humans were pushed aside in an instant.
“Has the king come out?”
King. The leader monster that can move not only his own race, but all monsters.
Gyeong-hoon was not the king, but he had seen a monster that came close.
Gyeong-hoon looked at the crashed Apache helicopter with the US military mark and asked Eve.
“There is still time. “I guess there are still some left, right?”
-There are at least a few years left. There is plenty of time.
The wounds of the initial wave were healed, and this world has maintained civilization for over 10 years in a world where monsters roam. As Eve said, their world still had time.
There was a lot of work to do.
We had to find out who led the monsters, and we had to eliminate those who seemed dangerous in advance.
“When I get back, I have to deal with the mail from Russia first.”
-You mean the Siberian gas pipeline?
“Okay, I think we need to check what kind of monster it is.”
-I will send you an acceptance email after I return.
Kyung-hoon adjusted his backpack and hurried on.
He had cleared out the monsters nearby, but he did not know when monsters from other places would come rushing in. He had to get out of this wasteland before that.
“I will get more information when I go to Daejeon .” “We can get it. Let’s go as far as we can before nightfall.”
Gyeonghoon pushed mana into his feet. Dust rose up and Gyeonghoon ran towards the forest beyond the wasteland. Time passed after Gyeonghoon
left.
Night came to the wasteland. Rat-shaped monsters gathered in the scent of dead monsters. .
Squeak.
Rats the size of wild dogs ran among the rusty chariots and enjoyed the unexpected feast.
But the feast did not last long.
Squeak, squeak. Squeak, squeak.
A sound of footsteps was heard from the north of the wasteland. It was the sound of metal hitting the ground.
I was startled by the sound . The rats ran away in all directions.
After a while, people wearing armor appeared where the rats had fled.
They were wearing plate armor all over their bodies.
One of them was holding up a marten that the rats had left over with one hand.
It was like holding a small cat. It seemed like they were lifting it. No wonder they were more than 2 meters tall, or closer to 3 meters. The
person who lifted the cat took off the long crow-shaped helmet that covered his face.
Inside the helmet was not a human face, but a crocodile’s head.
It wasn’t just the head.
Behind these armors, a long tail was sticking out. It was a crocodile’s tail full of scales. The
armored crocodile monster checked the bullet marks in the sable’s sable. It had
come to the right place. It was a trace of a human being. A human had passed through this place. The
crocodile monster . I threw away the silver awl marten and looked towards the south.
Many days and nights have already passed since I chased after the humans who invaded my territory.
Now, the distance from humans is not long. My hard work will be rewarded. After a
long time . A human appeared again. This human had to be brought before the master to
their territory, which the humans called Cheonggyecheon.
