The Little Prince in the Ossuary

00018 The Little Prince of the Charnel House

# High Risk High Return, Paso Robles (5)

Fewer people than the size of the gym Twenty students left, 34 adults in total. Three of them were armed. Two shotguns, one handgun. You reach over the barricade with your gun and face out. He looks at the winter and likes it, but he sees the group and gets confused. It was a different outfit.

Heave-ho. The door locked behind my back. Winter took off the mask, but held the pistol just in case. Unquestionably, a chubby white woman hugged me. The one who opened the door.

“Thank you so much for coming. They were losing hope and they were getting tired. ”

“You're welcome. Your name is.... ”

“I'm Amalia Flemen. I want you to call me Amalia. This is Daniel Lewis, who is our student advisor at the public school. ”

By student issues, we mean the Foster youth program. She was a school-level representative for orphans or adopted children, homeless students, and domestic disagreements.

“It's the middle of winter. It's hard to pronounce, so just call me Han. ”

Winter spoke softly, pushing her away.

There were armed men among the people watching. One of them asks suspiciously.

“All of you? ”

“For now. until tomorrow, at Camp Roberts, they send in more troops. ”

Oh! A shout has been heard. The questioner, however, was not yet convinced.

“How can you believe a child? I have a tag, but I don't have a rank, and I don't think the men who followed me are from the U.S. Army. ”

“To be honest, we are refugee volunteers. I'm from Korea, and I'm a recruit for RAW, and I don't have an official rank yet. ”

“What is it, refugee? So you guys are nothing? ”

I've got a complaint. Slim, seemingly neurotic reaction.

The group looks bad, too. Painting is difficult, but inviting is possible. The short film. I got it. Winter pressed them with a hand gesture. People at the gym were also confused by what the man said.

Winter instructed Jinsuk and the middleman to let go of the burden. In the middle of the meeting, you loosen the knot and shove it through your feet. Wow. It's pouring. The eyes I saw suddenly changed.

“If we are nothing, what do you think of the food we bring? ”

“Ugh……. ”

The amount of canned goods remains high, even if the group ate it. There's still one turn left.

I feel nervous. These people are hungry. I think I was hungry for a long time. A few people rush in and stop. It's because winter held a pistol in his hand and held out his other hand.

“I came to give it to you anyway, but I have to accept my apology first. To him, personally. ”

The thin man's face rotted. However, it was also difficult to withstand the pressure of something for long. Eyes of silent condemnation. Men did it all wrong from the start. Winter only weighed them down.

“I... I'm sorry. ”

A dishonest apology. The man turns his head roughly. People noticed the boy. Is that enough? The boy asked for nothing more.

“I apologize for the inconvenience. Can we get everyone in line, please? even if it's hard for people to get caught and hurt all at once. ”

I was uncomfortable saying the same thing twice in English and Korean. They need to know.

Leave the distribution to Yura. I think the female impression is soft. But then I stood up. She was eligible because she was sexy and was exasperated. The right person to feel in control here. People clicked and swallowed, but they lined up the students first. It was evidence that reason was not yet hard enough to fly.

“Do you have a spoon or fork? ”

I had a spoon, but I didn't have one. It must have been washed away and returned. When a student asks a question, winter looks sorry.

“I'm not ready for that. Fold the lid in an emergency and use it instead of a spoon. Be careful not to get hurt when folding. ”

Thin aluminum can be easily folded and shaped. As long as I narrowed it down to something to use as a lever, I'm afraid I'll have to replace it with a spoon. I had to pick it up by hand, but the hesitant people started eating it properly.

“Looks like they didn't starve at all. ”

Winter spoke to a white adult. The vibrancy is good. The old man with the marlin on his head, even though he was dirty, was still in suit. I'm still wearing my tie. Winter is thought.He must be very intelligent and gentle. A slow meal empowered the reasoning.

The old man nodded, raising his glasses.

“Ah……. They had canned or processed meat from the restaurant. Some people died trying to save it.... The vitamin supplements that smart Amalia brought helped. I was just about to cut back on the amount I was sharing a few days ago... … I'm so glad you came. If you were only a day late, you would have seen them fighting. ”

“Is that so……. ”

“Too late for introductions. My name is Stuart Hamill. He's the principal of this school. ”

“You're the principal. As you already know, it's the middle of winter. In Korea, we write the last name first, so Han is the last name and winter is the name. ”

“Gear……. It's definitely hard to pronounce. I think I understand why you asked me to call you by your last name, Mr. Han. ”

The principal laughs and asks with a serious face.

“Excuse me, how old are you? ”

In American culture, age is not easy to ask. This is why we want to treat one person regardless of their age. Beyond generations, friendships are common. However, the principal had good reason to ask.

“I'm concerned about the educator, I guess. It doesn't look that different from my students, but fighting with weapons... ”

“You mean like a child soldier? ”

“…… Yes. ”

To an educator, the presence of a child soldier is unacceptable.

It is easy to think of things unrelated to Korea. Until 2005, however, there was an exhibition student mobilization plan in Korea. It's not the Ministry of Defense, it's the Ministry of Education's plan. The full name is Exhibition Academic Hodgkin Group Operation Plan . He made the teacher the commander and made the "sound student" as the commander of the platoon to cover the school organization as it is.

Winter answered.

“Seventeen.”

“Oh my……. ”

The principal was appalled.

“What can I do in a world like this? ”

This time, it was more sincere than I had imagined. The principal shakes his head.

“In any world, a minor should be protected, Mr. Hahn. Fighting for your life is an unbearable experience for adults. It remains an indelible wound for a minor. Besides, the people who came with him seem to be following Mr. Han's lead. ”

“Once again, survival is our top priority. They're not my age, they're just following me. They're seeing what they can do, what they can do. ”

“That's wrong. I said, what can we do? Try killing something. Can you kill? Most of the people who saw it were dictators or butchers. There is no way to justice. Justice is the way. ”

You must be hungry. The principal throws up all over himself after forgetting to eat. He's a good man, but he can't look good. Principal Hamill will not fully acknowledge the leadership of winter as a minor, which is a penalty for underage.

However, he does not show himself, but just smiles and says:

“Thank you for your kind words. But I can't help it. because if I didn't have a weapon, more people would be dead or hurt. Including me.”

“ ……. ”

Principal Stuart Hamill sighed deeply. Winter shakes hands.

“Finish your dinner. I have some questions after I finish. ”

It wasn't empty. Winter gathered the principal and the people and laid out a map. Trying to gather information in case he comes back. Ask about the locations of pharmacies, gun dealers, grocery stores, and personal warehouses, and mark them on the map in order. This information was hard enough to obtain through air reconnaissance. It was best obtained from local libraries, government offices, and local residents.

Winter learned Memory. System calibrated memory extends in proportion to intellect and associated technology. Of course it is separate from the player's own memory. Character memory is, for example, a storage medium. It can be recalled at any time, responds to consciousness and unconsciousness, and is also linked to Insights.

Useful but not required So I saved XP. Grade 2. But it would have been much better than nothing.

The night came soon. Lights should be used with care to avoid leaking out. It's because mutants see the light and come together like worms. Early in the disaster, the radio broadcast of the disaster took effect here. The U.S. was a well-developed country with a disaster control system.

Winter watched the people at the gym slowly.

They were tenting inside the building. It can be stretched with a built-in slide, without the need for a stanchion. Thirty-four people will get in somehow. Not all of us fall asleep at once in a city like this, but we will be able to accommodate at least a little.

The drinking water was dependent on the constant still to be maintained. Of course, it could not be consumed immediately, but like many survivalists, one had a portable water purifier. A luxury product that filters 1 liter per minute by pump. I spoke to the owner. He boasted that one filter could weigh 50,000 liters and last 12,500 days on his own.

The feces and sewage were also being handled in their own way. There was a circular window near the scoreboard, but only one of the lattices broke open and punctured it. It was to collect the impurities and throw them into it. Usually sealed with vinyl and tape. Here was the cause of the smell of filth that I smelled before I entered the gym.

People have not abandoned the lifecycle of civilization while it was alive. There were very few people who quickly went to bed because it was dark and had nothing to do. People swarm in and surround the group. Many people were curious about the situation at Camp Roberts. With the exception of winter, the rest of the party is embarrassed. In the beginning, painting was not allowed in English. It is also a shame to reveal the reality of the refugees.

Winter was able to understand the feeling of not wanting to be shallow.

But the boy was honest.

“Camp doesn't make it any better. much better than here, of course. ”

If we get back safely, we'll get caught. A schoolgirl named Amalia raises her hand.

“How many people are there? ”

“A lot. A lot. Most of them are refugees, most of whom are from East Asia, and then Oceania. Some American citizens have joined us since the California infection. ”

“Can you be more specific? ”

“We don't have enough food or heating supplies. So refugee volunteers like us, with the U.S. military, are sourcing from the outside. It seems that because American citizens are being treated, refugees are hard to be distributed as much as they need to be. ”

Indeed, there were those who changed their eyes as expected. I started to look down on him. There were few; they were likely to have values ​ ​ of racism in the first place. When I was unfamiliar with 'after the end', I was angry with these people. I couldn't stand the thought of an artificial intelligence.

Even though the old stone is now rattling around, I'm not used to expressing it.

Of course, it is not just for reference. If there was anything that the boy had hoped for in the first place, there was no need to hold back. The boy has endured too much. Even though the opponent was a mere mortal, it meant enough to the boy.

Winter clearly pointed out the one who smiled.

“Who wears a hat there? Is it okay for you to laugh at someone who's here to help you in any way? ”

“W-what did I do?! Misunderstanding!”

“Of course. I hope I'm wrong, too. ”

I haven't put my pistol down since I got in. Tap slide with missing trigger finger. The man makes a distorted face and searches for his tent.

Even those who were not pointed at were frightened. Disturbed people.

When warning something, the effect is counteracted when targeting an unspecified majority. Many become strong just because they are many. It was one of the lessons learned from the experience of the multitude.
