I'm still alive

Put the injured people that Du-sik brought down roughly on the floor. No, almost threw it away. No matter how short the head style is, he seemed to understand the meaning that these guys are traitors who have been attached to vagrants. The man complained of pain and the woman who lost her mind was still unable to get up.

From far away, Kim Hye-jung and her medical staff began to run. She was told to have the medical team ready by radio in advance, but did not elaborate, so she stammered as if embarrassed when she saw those whose arms and legs were tied. And looked at me with trembling eyes and demanded an explanation.

I was forced to sigh and spoke quietly to her and the medical staff.

'Never take your eyes off me and keep your eyes on me. Do you have the rescue signal you mentioned? That was the bait.'

'What?'

She, who usually showed her ability, was also distracted by the sudden situation. I frowned because of the pain in my cheek and the frustration of the situation, and the old man who found me tired answered for me.

'These bastards stuck to the vagabond.’

The old man glared at them lying on the floor. Then he took away the bag that Yong-pal was carrying and began to pour out all the belongings and belongings of the vagrant to the victims he had brought there. Of course there were also items that the traitors had.

Then she showed her confusion as to whether she understood the situation, and soon began to look at each item the old man spilled on the floor. And with trembling eyes, he gazed at them with astonishment. It seems that he found a part of the place where he could guess.

'No... no... no...….’

She covers her face half with trembling hands. Then he got up and hurriedly took out the radio and began adjusting the frequency.

She hurriedly began to shout at someone beyond the radio.

'Tell me where Team Two!’

[Sorry?]

The radioed opponent showed signs of embarrassment at the sudden order, but she seemed rather impatient, and shouted harshly, saying, "I won't listen to your protest."

Search Team Two's residence!’

The medical staff also stopped carrying them on stretchers as if they noticed a sudden change in the situation. And Kim Hye-jung couldn't resist her anger and began to shake her hands, and soon her face crumpled and blushed. Perhaps there was something to be guessed.

The radio was not heard even after some time. While she couldn't win the minute, we sat on the floor and took a rest, and the medical staff quietly looked at her and gave them simple first aid.

In the meantime, the young man, fully awake, was looking alternately at us and her with a pale face. The face was a mixture of resignation, regret and deep fear. I could predict the result by looking at his face, but Kim Hye-jung seemed to need another assurance.

And over time her radio began to ring noisily. But the silent, constant chatterless radios made her even more confused. She called them over and over again, but beyond the walkie-talkies they didn't answer.

And a moment later, whether her efforts paid off or not, the radio rang with a murmur of astonishment.

[Cadavers!] [Cadaversus! There's a body in the bathroom!]

"Hey, you son of a gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

She jumped at the young man with a hysterical scream. The walkie-talkie had already flown far away and she grabbed the young man by the collar with a terrifying spirit. We sat back and watched the scene.

Hyup, you've been threatened! I didn't want to!'

The young man defended himself eagerly, with his runny nose. But does he know that's a cowardly excuse? Kim Hye-jung shook her fist hard as if she was going to kill him, and the young man's face soon began to turn blood-stained.

Then, the medical team was forced to step up. However, the medical team was also worried about Kim Hye-jung's fist condition, not about a young man who knew everything. The young man who had been beaten like that for a long time managed to survive thanks to the security that came to restrain her.

Kim Hye-jung She expresses her anger At the end, he finally burst into tears. Life-exchange rate of 50%. She must have felt despair as she looked at the increasingly victimized search teams. Maybe I'm not good enough? If the equipment was better, wouldn't there be no victims?

I remember her voice asking us for support in a quivering voice. Looking at the dying search troupes, I began to understand her feelings, which could only be radioed. But God was so indifferent. And instead of hoping, it brought her extreme distrust and despair.

No matter how hard she tried, Eden was already festering from the inside.

The situation began to clear up quickly. The traitors were taken somewhere after accompanying the medical staff under the leadership of the guards, and Kim Hye-jung, who was sitting on the floor in a daze, rose slowly and entered the tent as if possessed by something. Looking at the whole figure, we rose from our seats with a faint sigh.

Should I write a report? I began to think about what to do for her, who had nothing to say. Now that a big bomb has gone off, there will be a big commotion inside Eden, too. As witnesses and the party who discovered the bomb, we had an ominous premonition that we were going to be quite tired.

And at that moment came the sound of calling me from one side.

'Dong-yoon! Let's see the wound!’

Kim Chul was the one who came running with unexpected luck. He was always there for the wounded, but for today he remained here and looked at me.

'......it's all right.'

I scratched my back of the head and shook my head, and someone ran quickly and hit me in the back of the head. As I looked behind me, the old man opened his eyes fiercely and stared at me. I had no choice but to shut my mouth and show Kim Chul the wound.

Kim Chul kicks his tongue and says the wound is quite deep. It wasn't just disinfection, it was a wound that had to be stitched with a needle, but I ended up being led to the hospital by an old man.

During the time I went to the hospital, I looked around hard. Surely the mood in Eden was out of the ordinary. Security guards running hard in the streets looked stiff, and residents who noticed the strange smell were rushing home.

The ominous atmosphere was a sign of a great upheaval.

I was treated quickly in the hospital and headed to the accommodation a little early for the coming evening. The children who had been to school and the women who had finished their work arrived first, but Kang Soo-ryeon and Chae-yeon, who found my wound, began to hit me crying and I had to run away for a while.

* * * * * *

The dinner was pretty good, as the distributor lady said. Although it was old rice, warm rice came out and there were two side dishes. Of course, I couldn't say it was delicious, but I still saw efforts to balance it nutritionally.

The children were enjoying their meal without grumbling. However, adults wanted to make meat side dishes and ham side dishes for their children. Tomorrow I'm going to go back to the mart where we used to stay and bring some side dishes and food that children like.

At the end of the meal time, the quiet atmosphere began to get cluttered. The women got together and chatted about what happened today, and the children began to get together and play. I looked at it quietly and waited for a call from Eden soon.

And maybe an hour later, someone knocked carefully on the door of the accommodation where we were gathered. The whole party was silent when they heard the knock. Me and the old man packed their outer garments as if they had waited, and the Yongpal brothers, who were trying to follow us, just let us rest here.

What's going on? The sun is setting...….’

Is it because of my wound? Kang Soo-ryeon looked at me with a particular anxiety. There was a strong concern in her eyes, and I reassured her with a voice that I would tell her later. But as soon as I get dressed, Chae-yeon comes running and grabs my leg.

'Value!'

Let's go together! Chae-yeon was definitely saying that. It felt like yesterday when I got to know her name by her handwriting..... I lifted Chae-yeon holding my leg and hugged her in my arms. And when I put my bangs aside, Chae-yeon slowly closes her eyes.

I stared at Chae-yeon silently for a while. Then Chae-yeon hugs my neck with a crying sound. He's a good boy. The child must know he can't go with him. I had a short but deep communion and then moved out of the accommodation.

* * * * * *

It was the silver-rimmed glasses that knocked on the door of the accommodation. He was breathing heavily as if he had rushed here, and at the same time his face was full of excitement. After a brief pause in front of us, he suddenly reached out and grabbed my hand.

'You did a great job.’

'......what's wrong?’

I stepped back unknowingly and hurriedly pulled my hand out. But the silver-rimmed glasses smiled and raised the glasses, and quietly led us with gestures to go for now. Me and the old man were just guessing, so we followed him without saying a word.

And where we headed was not the search group building, but the central main building where the head of the group was staying. It was a building that I had never been back in since I first entered Eden, so I could guess that the situation was bigger than I thought. Is the head of the group involved? Then things get easier.

The old man, who was quietly following me, eventually couldn't resist his curiosity and asked the silver-rimmed glasses.

So what were they?’

Then the silver-rimmed glasses answered without hesitation, "Is there any reason to hide them?"

'The vagabonds were taken. Let's go inside and talk about the details.’

The silver-rimmed glasses hastened our steps as if we were not talking here. Walking half way through like that, we got into the main building and soon hurried up to the top floor. And we could get to the familiar room, passing through a corridor with a subtle lighting.

The silver-rimmed glasses arranged the disheveled hair and clothes in a reverent gesture at the door. We were looking at the scene with reluctance, but we were able to dress up and have our hair straight. Although the old man grumbled briefly, seeing him hurriedly part his hair, he seems to be quite nervous inside.

When we were ready, the silver-rimmed glasses coughed in vain and soon opened the door carefully. As soon as I opened the door, a subtle light and fragrant citron smell had been wafted through the shadows, and I sniffed my nose like an instinct and looked around the room quickly.

There was a long table in the group leader's room and quite a few people were sitting on both sides. Everyone was quiet and looked serious, so the atmosphere was unusual. And I could find Kim Hye-jung sitting on one side with a gloomy face.

Her eyes met with me coming in and soon she bowed her head quietly. It's a very different atmosphere than usual, so I, the old man, uh...he bowed his head in a daze with a ....

There are eight in all except for the guards and staff. Judging from the atmosphere, it was clear that the meeting was taking place. Then they were all senior officials in charge of the celebration in Eden, and as soon as I thought of it, I rolled my eyes and tried to figure out their faces.

But at that moment the sound of calling me from the center of the table rang out loudly.

Dong-yoon! Did you eat?’

It's always been the head of a group who has a good impressionable. Clearly, the group leader, who had been putting on a lot of expressions until a while ago, smiled brightly as if he had done so as soon as I came in. And as he trudged to me and gave me his hand, I couldn't help but grab it.

'Oh, yeah...' I've got the rations.’

I couldn't hide my embarrassment from the pouring gaze. When I scraped my back hair and shook hands, the group leader smiled and nodded with a happy face. And he showed me the seat by hand, which was the seat closest to him.

As I walked along with the group leader, the team leader of the combat team, who had not found it before, was staring at us with sunglasses on. I wanted to ask why you wear sunglasses in the evening, but I held it in because there was an atmosphere.

The old man, however, threw a punch at the man staring at him, as if he had no intention of holding it in. Kim Hye-jung, who was depressed, burst out laughing, and I desperately held back my laughter and sat down with the group leader.

The atmosphere began to subside again when I sat down. The group leader, who read the atmosphere, sighed slowly and soon the meeting began.
