The Returner

[428] 1. There's a nuke flying in here. (3)

Squawk.

When Lee Hyuk arrived at the Cheongwa University, his mother grabbed Lee Ye-won's head and dragged him forward.

“Aah! Mom! Head, head! ”

“Shut up, bitch! I'll rip your hair off! ”

“Ow! Mom, my head hurts! ”

“Just one more word and I'll leave you with no hair to pull out. Just one more word. I'm not kidding.”

Lee Ye-won desperately closed her mouth despite the pain of her head being ripped off. Her mother, Ms. Park Seon-deok, really did it once.

“What is this girl trying to be...? ”

Lee Hyuk trembles at the sound of the spike.

‘I'm going out the back. ’

As Lee Hyuk had lived through the spike of Park Seon-Duk's body, I had no choice but to mourn Lee Ye-won's pain.

How can others imagine the pain of the fire on their backs?

“Mom, stop it... ”

Lee Hyuk, who was worse, dried up Park Seon-Duk.

It was better if the core fell, or Yaewon could die before he got nuked.

“Get out of the way, asshole! My brother smokes like a pig. Stop it! You didn't do anything right. He didn't learn that because you're smoking cigarettes! ”

“When I showed up missing for five years, she was already smoking. ”

“Good at what? ”

Oh, logic won't win.

Lee Hyuk smiled, feeling something completely natural.

“Mom, this is Cheong Wa. ”

“Huh?"

My mother stopped her hand on Lee Ye-won's back and looked around. I felt that it was an unfamiliar building, and I let go of the hand holding Lee Ye-won's head.

“Oh my, where am I? ”

“ ……. ”

I don't know what to say.

It may not be the first time, but I teleported for a moment, and I didn't check what was around me, and I just grabbed her hair.

It was only at this moment that Lee Hyuk understood where his fighting instincts came from.

Mother's genes must be working strongly on his mind.

“Cheongwa?”

I didn't need an explanation. It's because the guards came running from one side wearing suits before opening their mouths.

“Lee Hyuk? ”

“Yes.”

“We've been contacted. We'll escort your family to the bunker. Lee Hyuk is a message from President Lee to come to the conference room. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

Lee Hyuk looked back at Park Seon-Duk and said.

“Mom, stay in the bunker. ”

“... What's going on? ”

“No, well……. ”

Lee Hyuk scratched his cheek.

“It's nothing. Just in case anything happens, just in case. Don't worry about it. My dad's gonna be here. ”

“Okay, got it. Don't overdo it.”

“Yes.”

Lee Hyuk looked at the mother heading to the elevator with the guards and turned away.

“But where is the conference room? ”

“Welcome. ”

“It's been a long time. in the mood.”

“I see.”

When I saw the faces of those who were stiff, it was clear that nuclear missiles were flying to Korea.

“Are you here?”

Choi Jung-hoon, the Secretary of Defense and the Chief of Staff... were all here.

Lee Hyuk looked around and sighed.

“I don't have a good day in the wind, really. ”

“... I'm sure you're familiar with it. ”

Choi Jung-hoon smiled bitterly as he replied. In his view, life has been windy ever since Lee Hyuk appeared, something strange and awkward is happening because Lee Hyuk said that.

“What's going on? ”

“That……. ”

After Choi Jung-hoon briefed the situation, Lee Hyuk sat on the couch holding his head.

“Anyway, assholes. ”

“… Christopher said the same thing. What's wrong with the china gun?”

“Die, you racist son of a bitch. ”

It's the same thing you said, man.

I was Lee Hyuk, who had a strong will that racism wouldn't tolerate me.

“So what's the situation? ”

“Let's have a look at the monitor. ”

Choi Jung-hoon pointed to the monitor and saw a red dot spreading around China.

“You should note that this is a plan drawing and is different from the actual position or speed. ”

“Well……. ”

“The area around Beijing is the area where ballistic missiles are expected to drop first. The second is Korea and Japan, and the third is Russia. ”

“Are you sure you want to start in East Asia? ”

“Well, this……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon pointed to the vision.

“In fact, Korea and Japan just happen to fall into range, most likely to fall into the East Sea. Russia will fall to the barren side unless it's really, really lucky to have so much land. This is where the projected landing zone is, and in fact, 80 percent of Russia's land is wasted, so it's not going to be that big of a deal. ”

“Well, yes. ”

“Here's the problem. Beijing.”

Choi Jung-hoon tapped the monitor with a command rod.

“Beijing is a very populous city with a lot of people around it. If a nuclear bomb drops in the middle of Beijing, China will have to deal with the paralysis of the land. ”

“Well, that's none of my business. ”

Lee Hyuk cut off Choi Jung-hoon's words with a dagger.

“So what about this one? ”

Choi Jung-hoon sighed.

As I looked at the monitor, the map expanded, and a large red circle covered both Korea and Japan at the same time.

“This is your projected landing site. ”

“Well, I don't know.... ”

“We're not drawing a typical trajectory. And the trajectory is constantly changing. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“To put it simply……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon pondered and opened his mouth.

“A fowl is flying a nuclear missile, and it needs to be scientifically measured as to where it's going to land……. ”

“I understand.”

Lee Hyuk sighed deeply.

“If the speed itself wasn't so fast, wouldn't you be able to respond? What's the response?”

“I'm preparing an intercept. ”

The Secretary of Defense has spoken.

“But I can't right now. A ballistic missile has to come into the West Sea to attempt intercept. We don't know what will happen if we detonate it from above China. ”

“Is that a good time to talk about it? ”

“I have no choice but to ask. ”

The minister said with a stiff face.

“It turns out that international cooperation is already an illusion. In such a situation, if we try to intercept the intercept from above China, we don't know how China will get out. ”

“Isn't protecting your people the most important thing? ”

Song Jeong-su was asked instead because the minister of defense was unable to answer.

“And there's a practical reason. ”

“Yes?”

“Even if we try to intercept now, there will be an explosion in the Far East of China. But in the far eastern part of China, nuclear power stations are concentrated. If you mess with it and the power plant explodes, Fukushima will explode in the West Sea, not in the East Sea. ”

“Hnng... ”

Lee Hyuk scratched his head.

“So no intercept is possible until we get to the West Sea? ”

“Yes.”

“Well……. ”

Lee Hyuk's face became serious and Choi Jung-hoon said with a stiff face.

“You don't have to worry so much. It's better than I thought. ”

“Why?”

“When we just said eighteen ballistic missiles were flying in, it was probably an extermination scenario……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon cleared his throat and said again.

“The fear of ballistic missiles is that intercepts are nearly impossible. There are some things that are incredibly fast and confusing. But if you fly at that speed, the intercept is not very difficult because you can visually see and respond. If we control our streets well, we can intercept them and make it back alive. ”

Lee Hyuk silently looked at Jung-hoon Choi and opened his mouth.

“I know what you mean. ”

“Yes.”

“Isn't that typical? ”

“Yes?”

“It's unusual for a warhead to turn and fly somewhere else, but you can't assume that's something we can do. No one knows what kind of potion the Demon Lord has been pouring. ”

“Ah……. ”

Lee Hyuk leaned against the couch and said nicely.

“If dealing with the Demon King was so easy, who would suffer? Don't get it right and regret it, but you better do everything you can right now. ”

“ ……. ”

“You can't tell me what I'm feeling. So what happened to Beijing? ”

“Beijing……. ”

After looking at the map, Choi Jung-hoon opened his mouth with a stiff face.

“We're almost there. ”

“I can't do this anymore. ”

Shichang nods.

I waited as long as I could for the warheads to leave the territory, but if I dragged them any further, there was a risk of a nuclear blast to Beijing.

“Remote detonation attempted! ”

“Yes!”

Shichang was trying to explode, but something was not right.

‘Are we going to have to endure the aftermath of eighteen explosions? ’

Wouldn't it be better to take out one flying warhead into Beijing and leave the other one alone?

I pressed down on the whispering demon in my chest and bit my lip tightly.

Patriotism can sometimes be a monster.

If you are thinking this for your own benefit, you are aware that you are committing evil, but when you have a shield that is not for the benefit of the individual, but for the benefit of the country and the safety of the people, you can wrap it up as a decision for the greater good, not for the harm of your own actions.

However, Shichang did not make a decision.

It was not because he hesitated, but because he was not in charge. It was not possible to change the plan without the permission of the annotations. Even if his voluntary judgment results in more than Tin's judgment, all that remains for him is the merciless purge that will return in return for disobedience.

Chewing his lips tightly.

“Sending remote detonation signal! ”

Hearing the voice coming into my ears, he clenched his fist tightly. I want to succeed and I want to fail at the same time.

“It won't explode! There's interference.”

The flesh of Cheongcheong stretched slightly.

The cold sweat that flowed through my forehead soaked into my eyes, riding my eyebrows.

“Retrying! Failed! It's not working.”

“Got it!”

Shenzhen gripped his teeth.

“It was better. A warhead flying into Beijing intercepts a fighter plane. Tell the countries not to remote detonate the rest of the warheads and leave them to it. ”

Cheung wiped his face.

For that brief moment, I felt ten years old.

“All you have to do now is get rid of that warhead. The rest will work. ”

She-Chuang's anxious eyes glanced at the vision indicating the deployment of the fighter. Turns over there now.
