The Returner

[441] 4. That's all I have for you (1)

I wasn't interested in how prepared I was.

I was not indifferent, but I didn't do anything because I knew that it was more efficient to leave it to Jung-hoon Choi than to Lee Lee Hyuk for no reason.

The problem was that boredom didn't go away.

“What's taking so long to prepare? ”

It was hard to comprehend the time it took to move a few people in the face of this revolution when we never thought about how it would be accepted that sending capabilities to co-train with the most wary criminal groups in the United States.

“That's strange. I'm not incompetent. ”

Choe Jung-hoon stepped up and took time to finish the job, which means it is not that easy. At least Lee Hyuk believed in Choi Jeong-hoon's ability.

“… ah. ”

Lee Hyuk came to the refrigerator and opened the door.

“Huh?"

No Coke

Lee Ji-hyuk scratched his head.

“There's no water. ”

‘What is she doing! Lee Hyuk thought to himself, "You emptied the refrigerator!" He scratched his stomach and walked flatteringly toward the front door. Lee Hyuk, who had checked his wallet in his pocket, opened his front door and opened his base to let him hang out.

“Oww.”

Now that I think about it, I've been living like an extra human being lately.

After fixedly disappearing from work, the time when I woke up became the same. Luckily or unfortunately, now that there are so few people accessing the game, it takes almost forty minutes to catch a match.

Just turn on the TV for an emergency broadcast, and it's less fun just to watch feature shows and documentaries that only tell negative stories. Skills seemed to be extinct.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. ”

The world didn't seem to change that much at first, even though the spots connected to the magic system were opened, but the aftermath was beginning to appear.

My mother's restaurant was cut off by a guest, and my father's company dropped bombs.

Basically, it was the Republic of Korea that was eating as a trade, so the amount of trade flows had been severely affected. The beginning was faint, but the end was fading.

Lee Hyuk came out and swooped his nose.

‘There are no people. ’

Originally, the streets of the Capable were calmer than the other streets, but it was not so annoying that even human shadows could not be seen.

Lee Hyuk opened his eyes as he moved his feet because it was still daylight.

“What? Is the door closed? ”

The convenience store closest to my house closed.

The store is empty.

“The convenience store next door was closed the other day.... ”

Lee Hyuk frowned.

There are more and more shops closing around you. It's hard to keep track of the store after the game has gone bad.

“I have to go to the market. ”

Lee Hyuk sighed deeply. Few convenience points in the residential area. Since the rest of the convenience store seems to be out of stock, it seemed prudent to go out and get supplies.

On the spot, Lee Hyuk walked into the gate, opening the gate.

“... What is this? ”

A large market was operating. It would be fortunate to say that if we were to perish here, Korea would perish.

However, Lee Hyuk who entered the market had no choice but to consider whether he entered the market or the furniture store.

The market, which only had empty poles, was barren, so it was a bitch.

“Nose, cola? ”

The water has already given up. There couldn't have been water in this situation. It was ramen, instant food, and packed everything in the yard. There couldn't have been any drinking water left first.

“Coke!"

Lee Hyuk jumped like lightning and started running to the soda corner. If you don't get it here, you won't be able to see Cola for a while.

It's water. There's a water purifier, so it can be solved, but without a Coke....

“There is!”

Lee Hyuk's eyes sparkled.

Lee Hyuk, who found the last box of Coke at the bottom of the soda corner, flew like the wind and grabbed it.

No, I tried to grab it.

At that moment.

Immediately before Lee Hyuk's hand just reached out, someone grabbed Cola tightly and pulled her forward.

“Phew……. ”

Lee Hyuk's hand, which cut the air in vain, strangely slammed into it. Lee Hyuk stared at the one who caught Cola with a flame in his eyes.

“My Coke! ”

“I caught it first, so go to another market. ”

“ ……. ”

Blood spattered from Lee Hyuk's forehead. However, there was a moral imperative that Lee Hyuk, who was an unmanned man, should not rob the enemy's catch first.

It was Lee Hyuk who did not hesitate to kill but did not commit robbery when fighting.

“Bar, can I have half? ”

“Half?”

“Then only a third. ”

“How much will you give me? ”

“I'll double it. ”

“Give me ten times and I'll think about it. ”

What kind of robber is this?

No matter how much the world enters at the end of the century, getting food is important and killing each other because of food....

Oh, this is too much.

After all, even if food is important, it's ten times as important. You're the one who's going to sell the Atlantic River water.

Lee Hyuk was about to shout, trembling.

“Huh?"

Lee Hyuk tilted his head.

“Creative?”

“… Huh? Brother?”

Lee Hyuk's hand slowly extended forward.

“Give me that. ”

“ ……. ”

It was a day when the sufferings of the founding ceremony began again.

“What do you mean?”

“Yes.”

“What does Alba have to do with anything? Aren't you a senior? ”

“Brother, since the world is like this, why would Merritt go to college here? It's better to dive into the industrial front and make a penny more. ”

“Isn't that because you're not good at college? ”

“… I'm going to ask you to refrain from packing. ”

“I'm sorry, man. ”

Lee Hyuk and Choi were biting a cigarette holding a Coke in each hand.

“Then why isn't there anything here? ”

“He's not coming in. We're low on supplies.”

“Cute?”

“Yes, there are some people who use barbeques, but they don't get very much at all. All the factories have stopped, and they're not producing. ”

“Why?”

“It's a problem. There must be many things. There are commodity problems, there are labor supply problems... At first, people who were anxious and working constantly started releasing their hands over time. ”

“Mmmm... ”

“Looks like the nuclear meltdown this time was a critical hit. They thought there was no hope. ”

Lee Hyuk slowly nodded.

Those who have to watch with their hands will suffer. Even if another country were to invade, there was nothing ordinary people could do against the Demon King who could not do anything with their powers or their armies.

“Sir.”

“Huh?"

“Are we really screwed now? ”

“Screw what? ”

“The world.”

“ ……. ”

There was anxiety on Chang's face.

“I've been thinking it might work, but I'm a little nervous lately. In fact, I think it's meaningful to be working here now. If the money becomes a piece of paper towel, this is going to get ugly. ”

“I'm worried about all the stars. ”

“Still.”

Lee Hyuk smiled.

“Hey, they're the ones who are the biggest idiots when the money is in a piece of paper towel, are they going to let that happen? It's not like old times.Even if the country is ruined, the money won't be ruined. ”

“… persuasive. ”

“And it's not ruined. ”

Lee Hyuk quietly lit up his eyes.

“Don't be sorry if it all goes down together. ”

“So we're screwed? ”

“I'm not screwed. ”

Lee Hyuk drank cola all the way.

“I won't let you down, so don't be afraid. I'll think about it later, and I'll make you smile like," Oh, I had a time like that. "”

“Can I trust you? ”

“No.”

Lee Hyuk shrugged.

“I can't help it. ”

“Sir!"

“It's difficult. Well, what if the sky breaks down and there's a hole in it? ”

“... Can we live with the sky falling down and rising from it? Everyone else would be dead. ”

“Huh?"

You're sharp.

At that moment, it was Lee Hyuk who wondered if his head was pretty good.

This could be a good battle with mischief.

“Creative.”

“Yes.”

“People have a role to play. I'll do my job, so you do yours. If you're not doing anything with desperation, you're gonna regret wasting your time when there's hope. ”

“… so does he. ”

“Can I have a Coke for that? ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk laughed as he watched the ceremonial ceremony in front of Cola with his trembling hands.

“There you go, man. Leave it and eat it.”

“No, I'll give you one. ”

“That's enough.”

Lee Hyuk said as if he was using his toebox.

“I can go to the United States and get it. I'll be right back. ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk sighed, then got up and wiped off his cigarette.

“How is school these days? ”

“Damn it. I've been told they can't even do it, so they don't go to school properly. I really feel like my country is falling apart. ”

If the senior didn't go to school, it was really a veil. A telescope that reaches more than anything we've ever seen.

Lee Hyuk sighed, feeling serious.

“What does the government do when the country looks like this? ‘

In fact, even at this moment, Song Jung-soo was running around with a fire and calming the situation to relax his neck, but there was already a limit to the opening of the government.

It was the same all over, not just in South Korea.

Moreover, because of the loss of the central government, the Korean industry itself was paralyzed.

RRRR.

At that moment, Lee Hyuk's phone started ringing.

“Hmm……. ”

The tiger said he'd come if I told him, but what should I call this guy who only calls when he doesn't tell me?

“Yes, Jung-hoon Choi. ”

― Lee Ji-hyuk, everything is ready. Please come to my office.

“Yes, I understand. ”

Lee Hyuk hung up his phone and looked back at the ceremony.

“I'm going. ”

Chang ceremony threw a new bottle of Coke at Lee Hyuk. Lee Hyuk, who received the cola, laughed deeply.

“Eat?”

“That's all I have for you. ”

“Come on. I'll eat well. ”

Chang Hyuk shouted loudly toward Lee Hyuk who was about to turn around.

“Sir!"

“Huh?"

“Are you sure you're okay? ”

Lee Hyuk waved his hands without answering.

Lee Hyuk, who was walking around the office with his Chang Dynasty behind his back, felt like his shoulders were crushed.

‘I feel like this. ’

Did it feel like this to anyone who stood in his way on Terra Latrell?

Even though I knew I wasn't the opponent, I felt foolish that I had to stop them for the world. However, Lee Hyuk seemed to be able to understand their minds a little.

We do it not because we can, but because we have to.

“Because I have to. ”

Lee Hyuk clenched his fist and opened the gate.
