Theatrical Regression Life

Episode 486:

Hong Gyeong-jun was one of the survivors who was quite influenced by the underworld.

As for the reason, well. Ha Seong-yoon concluded that it may be because his will is weak or his beliefs are strong. Personally, I think it’s the former, but it could have been the latter because I know that Hong Kyung-jun is capable at important moments, even if he’s a little crooked.

Why are you suddenly saying this?

Hello. Ha Seong-yoon?

There was nothing special. It was just that Hong Gyeong-jun’s voice was so different when he was in reality and when he was in the other world that he probably thought it was for nothing.

“Yes, that’s me.”

Ha Seong-yoon, who received Hong Gyeong-jun’s call, continued.

“And we arrived safely.”

In front of him were two well-hidden survivors who were not injured.

“I also met Mr. Munsan and Mr. Azalea.”

“We’re okay, Detective Hong Gyeong-jun. “Thank you for your concern.”

“I guess so.”

When I heard Munsan-gun’s voice, a relieved voice came from the other phone. Unlike in reality, the voice was a bit more angular and hard.

-Fortunately, the. I’m worried because Mr. Munsan and Grandma Azalea’s team doesn’t have combat personnel.

“Am I being treated as a combatant? It’s too much. “I am concerned that the treatment of the few medical personnel in the group may be too harsh.”

―There is nothing we can do about it because of what you have shown so far. I guess you brought out at least one deadly medical tool this time?

“That’s nonsense…. What kind of medical equipment would a person who normally exercises and hikes have? “Is it okay to understand that I was seen as a senseless medical professional who was constantly pilfering supplies from the hospital?”

―Anyway, Ha Seong-yoon has excellent fighting skills…

“Can’t you hear me?”

-I finally feel a little relieved. I trust that you will lead Mr. Munsan and Grandma Azalea well.

Hong Gyeong-jun continued speaking in his characteristic insensitive tone, as if he did not want to listen to Ha Seong-yoon’s complaints.

―So what is the situation? What are your future plans?

“…You two are in better condition than I thought. It looks like you were hiding well. As soon as my stamina recovers, I can go straight to the park in front of Oseong headquarters, or I can stay at Hangang Park for a while. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to rest for a few days and then go to the meeting place.”

―Then how about continuing to stay at Han River Park? Grandmother Dal-lae corrects this, but I am worried because she is old.

“That’s true, but…”

Ha Seong-yoon looked around.

“I don’t think it will be safe enough to stay until we escape.”

The Han River was also a park. And places like parks with lots of naturally growing plants were particularly safe among the underworld. So Ha Seong-yoon also once thought whether the Han River Park would be safe as well.

But that thought was shattered while coming to the Han River.

“There are plenty of places to hide, but there are even more monsters.”

The monsters scattered here and there made Ha Seong-yoon so sick that it was difficult to get in and out.

A bicycle monster that rides at high speeds without distinguishing between sidewalks and bicycle paths. Even though no one was there, there were so many cyclists riding alone that it seemed like a ghost was riding them, so I felt like I might get run over.

“I didn’t know where it would come from, so my mental strength was naturally worn out. “I definitely heard the sound of a bicycle coming from the other side, and it appeared from the side.”

―Can you think of it as a kind of monster that mainly makes surprise attacks?

“Maybe. “The problem is not just with these guys.”

There were also dog monsters that hid in the shade of the trees scattered across the field, and after a certain period of time, their bodies gradually faded and disappeared, or they were tied to leashes and growled here and there. Since it was a park adjacent to a river, water-related monsters also slowly showed themselves.

It looked like an aquatic creature with thin fins and smooth scales, but it was always submerged in the water, so no real information could be found other than that it was quite large.

“The good news is that, as I said before, there are plenty of places to hide.”

This is why Munsan-gun and Azalea, who have almost no combat power, were able to remain fine even though there were so many threatening monsters.

They were avoiding the monsters behind a wooden barrier that resembled a dense fence.

“It’s definitely not a threat to the park itself. It doesn’t seem like there are strict rules like at Eonhak High School, and I haven’t seen any traps or anything like that in the park. There are just too many monsters. “Because it is a tourist destination with a very large floating population, there must have been a lot of thoughts that could create a monster.”

If you asked how many monsters there were, it wasn’t difficult to answer. Immediately, I could hear the wet sound of an unknown monster sloshing past behind the tree.

“Maybe it’s just a matter of hiding for a moment…”

It seemed difficult to sit down at all.

Hong Gyeong-jun also seemed to agree with Ha Seong-yoon’s judgment, and his answer was quick.

-It might be better to move quickly.

“As mentioned earlier, Grandma Azalea is older and I also spent a lot of energy to get here, so I plan to wait and see the situation before making a decision.”

―Yes, if you do… please make a decision as soon as possible. I hope everything gets sorted out before my phone’s battery runs out.

Ha Seong-yoon clicked his tongue inwardly. Detective Hong Gyeong-jun’s bad habits were starting to get worse again.

He opened his mouth with a smile that could not be seen by the person on the other end of the phone.

“If things don’t get sorted out, there will be another way. “It would be better for Detective Hong Gyeong-jun to adopt the attitude of trying to manage the survivors as he pleases.”

―…I will refrain.

“It sounds like you have a lot of complaints, but I’ll be satisfied with that for now.”

Ha Seong-yoon continued speaking in his characteristic soft voice.

“I will organize my plans today or tomorrow, so please contact me.”

―Yes… I would appreciate it if you could please be careful and not get caught up in something strange out of nowhere.

“Aha, like Manager Lee Jae-heon?”

-haha.

“ha ha ha.”

The two ended their conversation with a warm laugh.

Ha Seong-yoon thought.

‘Nothing works.’

And exactly this was what the survivors at the aquarium were thinking.

* * *

It’s a fact that I really don’t understand and I don’t want to admit.

Da-young Park and In-myeong Song communicated well.

“Oh, come up to work!”

“Give me your fucking hands or you son of a bitch!”

“You damn weak bastards…!”

Even if it means fighting over everything.

The ‘Amazon of the World’, which had been decorated as a tropical region, has expanded into a really dirty area and has become much more complicated than that.

After holding your breath and memorizing each and every complex terrain feature, you move to an area where you can avoid the monster. That wouldn’t have been possible if it weren’t for the clever minds of these two people.

Song In-myeong hurriedly grabbed Park Da-young by the back of her neck and one of her arms and pulled her up the tree, but it was impossible to completely avoid the monster that was running strangely fast.

“Aaaah!”

“shut up!”

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!”

“Shut up, shut up, really! “Don’t provoke the monster, you bastard!”

“Why don’t you try biting my fucking leg!!”

In the end, Park Da-young, who couldn’t climb up in time, got bitten on the leg.

“Ugh…! Hey hey hey! Hey fuck! “Fuck, come to your senses and do your best!”

“Keueuuuuu…!”

“Whoa…!”

Song In-myeong took a deep breath and pulled Park Da-young up with great strength, but Park Da-young’s legs were damaged to the point where she could not walk. The right leg was tattered with numerous tooth marks, probably due to the monster’s many teeth inside its mouth.

Song In-myeong muttered.

“It somehow didn’t cut off.”

“Kasacki… fucking Kasacky… you’re saying that right now…”

“I’m surprised that your mouth is still alive this much after getting to this point, you crazy bastard.”

“Huh Huh Huieng … Uncle ….”

“I don’t call you, but I call you uncle.”

“Mister….”

If it had been another survivor, he would have sympathized with Park Da-young’s wounds and pain, but for Song In-myeong, such sensitivity did not exist even after he grew hair.

He just felt fortunate that this little bastard, Park Da-young, had at least come to his senses.

‘Seeing how you have such a mean mouth even though your legs are sore, I don’t think there will ever be a bad situation in the future where you just give up and go out alone. ‘I wouldn’t be upset if I dragged you all the way here and suddenly it’s gone.’

At the same time, I thought that moving with Park Da-young was a good choice.

Park Da-young’s mental strength is ridiculously strong, which is why she’s crying like this. Even if she were just Park Da-hoon right now, she wouldn’t have reacted like this. I was sure that Song In-myeong must have panicked and acted foolishly while being hugged by his older sister.

“Hey, come to your senses. If you don’t move quickly, your younger brother will be in danger too. “Do you think the little ones who were just born yesterday will be safe?”

“Fuck, try speaking nice….”

“You damn thing, you’re going to tell me how pretty you are, really? “How absurd?”

“Ugh… it fucking hurts….”

“This is going to smell like blood. Do you know that from now on we will be in charge of bait? “Oh, I guess my feet don’t hurt.”

“A lot of blood is dripping…?”

“I was crushed under a tree. Also, you have to jump out of the way before the monster crushes you?”

Currently, Song In-myeong and Park Da-young were up on a tree together.

A situation where an unknown monster is chasing us and is following closely behind them. After identifying the geographical features, Park Da-young and Song In-myeong made a plan.

While Park Da-hoon, who has good strength, stamina, and quick legs, ran to a designated location with two kindergarten students and hid, Park Da-young and Song In-myeong lured the monster.

Just before execution. Park Da-hoon did raise questions about the strangely clumsy plan.

“But isn’t the tree too… high? How are you going to climb up…?”

“That’s why your role is important. Listen carefully. If you look now, there are vines tangled around the tree. “You have to go first and pull it to make it taut.”

“What can I do if I pull it…?”

“If you at least keep it from flopping, it will be easier for us to grab it or step on it, don’t you think?”

“Who the fuck is this serial killer talking about?”

“Yeah, my little brother is stupid.”

“…Speak nicely so the kids can listen…and please stop fighting and explain…”

There was another minor conflict, but that aside.

Song In-myeong, perhaps using his skills from his art major, drew a map of the surroundings, including their locations, to help Da-hoon Park and the kindergarten students understand.

“Look, I’m going to draw you a picture now. This is where we are hiding. “The three large trees here are surrounded by bushes, so the monsters can’t see them.”

“Ah yes.”

“If you look, this bush is lined with work. From what I just checked by climbing up the tree, it looks like this is probably the exit to the next theme zone. Then, I have to move diagonally, but it would be impossible because the distance between trees is too far to avoid the monsters and cross between them…” “I don’t think I can remember, so can’t you just tell me

what I need to do?”

Song In-myeong felt sorry for the idiot Park Da-hoon, but he answered faithfully.

“Do you know where the tree I drew is?”

“yes.”

“It jumps out in writing. Hide with the kids at the designated location and pull the vines hanging from the tree. “I’m telling you to secure it so that we who follow can grab it and climb up.”

“Ah…”

The distance to the exit was so long and rough that I had to turn around and in that case, I needed a ‘rest section’ to avoid getting caught by the monster. Those were the three trees tangled with vines that Song In-myeong and Park Da-young chose.

After climbing up to a height where the monsters can’t reach, they tie up the monsters by covering them with a lot of blood, and while they are distracted, Park Da-young and Song In-myeong climb down the tree and run to the exit with Park Da-hoon.

That was their plan.

“Do you understand? “I’m worried that this kid is so cool…”

“I’ll do my best.”

And actually, Da-hoon Park did a good job.

After running faster than Song In-myeong and Park Da-young while holding the two children, he hid without making a sound and gathered all the vines that were tangled in the designated tree and pulled them. This is to prevent the unfortunate event of the two of them using the vine as a support and the tree loosening and falling.

So Park Da-hoon did nothing wrong. However, things in the world do not always go as planned, and the durability of the already anxious vine was not enough.

“Why would the vine break there… Ha, really…”

Park Da-young knew the location of the vine as well as Song In-myeong, stepped on it, and climbed up with Song In-myeong’s help, but the steps got tangled in the vine that broke in the middle and the monster hit her. I ended up getting bitten.

As a result, my right leg became tattered.

“Stop complaining and go down.”

“Can’t you carry me down?”

“What kind of disgusting, bullshit thing is this?”

Song In-myeong was disgusted, but half agreed. In his opinion, it didn’t seem like Park Da-young could climb down the vine safely. He scratched his head and said:

“Shit… It’s really Eva who’s carrying you and she’ll help you, so get ready to go down right away. Monsters that smell blood are coming? “Can’t you see the bush shaking from there?”

“Oh, I understand. I understand.”

Although the plan was barely accomplished, it was obvious that Park Da-hoon burst into tears upon seeing his blood relatives in tatters.

Song In-myeong made fun of it and was beaten by Park Da-young.
