Episode 307
Episode 307: Busan (1)
“Sir, we will proceed with the inspection.”
A request for inspection mixed with a Busan-specific accent.
“Hmm, hm… … .”
Although I am confident that I can speak standard Korean perfectly through almost obsessive practice, I cannot say that my accent is perfect.
“Well, why are there so many inspections? “If we stop once in every alley, where will people go?”
Saying that, Park Gwang-rim presents his ID card.
“Because there was a warning of a terrorist attack. There are protests… … .”
“Terrorism?”
“Yes, terrorism. Kim: Isn’t there a strange cult called Shinhwa? “Here it is.”
The person checking the ID is not the police.
A reinforced suit made by Yeonam Industries with prominent shoulders, elbows, and waist, and a drug injection socket installed on the back of the neck.
A combat official belonging to the Foreigners Management Office.
“Busan’s population is already 15 million. Since everything comes in by boat, if we don’t do something like this, we won’t be able to control it. control. “Because strange things keep coming in, earthquakes occur.”
Park Gwang-rim felt mild discomfort at the nuance contained in those words. Anything? Is the earthquake foreigners’ fault?
“Let’s go.”
The combat official handed Park Gwang-rim his ID card and chased him, and Park Gwang-rim passed through the checkpoint line as if he was being pushed.
“cheap… … .”
A word starting with double coat was about to come out of Park Gwang-rim’s mouth. I came by plane. shit. Be patient, be patient.
Park Gwang-rim, who walked a little further, grumbled while looking at the map printed on his smartphone.
“They said it was Songjeong, so it would have been better to go up one more stop and get off.”
Kim Shin-hwa conveniently called Songjeong, but Park Gwang-rim’s destination was Gijang-gun.
Although you can see the sea from here, it is about 7km east of Haeundae, which outsiders associate with the name Busan.
“It’s such a hot day, and there are so many people… … .”
Police officers everywhere.
Combat officials from the Foreign Affairs Administration who stand out even though they are not wearing uniforms.
“Explain!”
“Explain!”
A noise coming from far away.
“Are you protesting? “I can see everything.”
Park Gwang-rim watched the protesters for a moment with an expression as if he was seeing a strange sight.
Protests are an unimaginable act in Paju.
When people gather together and express certain emotions and make a fuss, strange phenomena can occur in Paju.
This can only be done in the city furthest from the Great Wall… … . Sejong City is also good, but is Busan the best place to settle down after retirement?
Park Gwang-rim, who was watching the protesters with a vague sense of envy toward the citizens of Busan, soon shook his head.
“Now I have to work. Day.”
Park Gwang-rim carefully looks around and takes out a pendulum from his pocket.
A pendulum that begins to move, like a snake lifting its head.
‘I know the direction, but… … . ‘Why is it over there?’
Despite the strict atmosphere, people are noisily wandering around the streets.
Complex twisted alleys.
Cluttered signs installed densely in every building.
“Find a goblin that is not even a human in this vast Busan… … ?”
Park Gwang-rim sighed, mixed with the crowd, and entered the back alleys of Busan.
* * *
The Busan Special Self-Governing Government announced that the population of Busan has exceeded 15 million, but the actual number of humans, or rather humanoid intelligences, residing in Busan is estimated to exceed 20 million.
Busan, known in name and reality as the largest city in Korea, is buzzing with excitement.
“Explain!”
“Explain!”
Protesters occupying the main street are shouting at the huge building in front.
This is also one of the aftereffects of the incident caused by Kim Shin-hwa.
Not only did it drill a huge hole in the middle of Chilgapsan Mountain, causing hundreds of casualties, and create thousands of direct and indirect victims –
Defeated Yang Seo-ho of the Foreigners Management Office and kidnapped Dok Go-gyeom of Manse Iwongyo –
A shocking declaration made by Kim Shin-hwa, a monster who achieved a feat of surrealistic proportions, along with the incident.
『Come to Busan in 6 days.』
『I will open the lid of the bottomless pit with Cure Medical Care that day. Beasts like hordes of hungry locusts will pour out of that pitch-black abyss.』
Citizens of Busan took to the streets, angry at this bizarre declaration that spread along with a local scandal.
The cries of people whose faces were red with excitement and anger.
“What on earth is Cure Medical Care hiding?”
“Explain your relationship with Kim Shin-hwa immediately!”
“What on earth are you planning in Korea!”
“Reveal the identity of the strange phenomenon that occurred last night!”
“Cure Medical Care, reveal the truth!”
An ugly atmosphere.
Even if left alone, it is likely to boil over, but an unfortunate incident occurs at an odd timing.
Rumbling rumbling-
A mild earthquake shaking the ground.

“Uuuuuu!”
It was definitely not an earthquake loud enough to make people scream.
A brief vibration that would normally have startled me a bit.
But ‘it is now’.
“mind!”
Someone’s unexpected roar.
“What is this earthquake?”
“I’m the one who caused the earthquake!”
“Yes, earthquakes have been occurring since this research complex was built!”
“What is the cause of repeated earthquakes?”
The people’s shouts gradually become entangled in a form that is difficult to distinguish, degenerating into a huge and terrible clamor.
“Make it public!” “Explain!” “Get out of Busan”! “What are you doing in our neighborhood!” “mind!” “You bastard!” “Explain!” “You bastard!” “Akiyama!”
The protesters’ cries of violence knock on the windows of the large-scale research facility established by Cure Medical Care in Gijang-gun.
* * *
Cure Medical Care’s research facility, main building, 13th floor.
“I’ve already held two press conferences, what more do I have to explain?”
With his hand on the buzzing windshield, a man looking down at the protesters outside the window grumbles.
If one were to describe his appearance, it would be necessary to repeat similar words over and over again.
Long, thin limbs and delicately moving fingers. Strangely red and thin lips, rising towards the sky as if reflecting excessive confidence… … Thin and long eyebrows.
Every part of the body is thin and long.
It may feel a little awkward, but thanks to the organized assembly of the long and thin body parts, this long and thin human has been completed into a visually quite attractive form.
Yoshinori Akiyama.
He is the CEO of Cure Medical Care and a cult member who serves the [Source of Life].
“What do you think? “Is it difficult for me to understand because I’m not Korean?”
Ko Kyung-soo of Wild Guns Security answers Akiyama’s question with a troubled smile.
“If you ask, I will silence you.”
Akiyama smiled, as if he liked Go Kyung-soo’s answer, but then shook his head.
“No, no, no. “It’s a good idea to entrust such a chore to a top-notch troubleshooter who costs a lot of money to hire.”
At the same time, Akiyama makes a tsk tsk tsk sound.
“If you scream and make a fuss like that, you will feel a little relieved. “Maybe the organizers of the protest will change their minds around this evening?”
This evening, a guest will visit those who are believed to be the instigators.
“I have something else to ask you. “What happened to that demon?”
“We are sending the dogs after them.”
I had no idea that I would be caught up in an occult mission like this.
With that in mind, Go Kyung-soo briefly reported last night’s results.
Last night around 03:00.
From the south side of the experiment building… … A “goblin riding a burning motorcycle” is captured flying.
With the help of an occult expert under his command, the battle took place for about 40 minutes.
Made a hit, but failed to capture it.
Unlike previous engagements, this time it is believed that fatal injuries were inflicted.
However, since the opponent is a surreal being, we are tracking them carefully, considering all cases.
“Tracking? “Didn’t you say it was impossible until now?”
“It was a definite hit last night. Thanks to this, our occult expert was able to secure the target’s spirit body.”
Akiyama laughed and patted Go Kyung-soo on the shoulder.
“Excellent. As expected, good dog. Was it Gun-Dog?”
“It doesn’t matter either way.”
Go Kyung-soo calmly accepts being treated like a dog.
“Well, Gimu- Gimu- Shinhwa? The day he declared is tomorrow. “There should be results gradually.”
“We’ve almost put in the effort, so it will pay off soon.”
No, you have to achieve results somehow.
Go Kyung-soo felt nervous.
It’s not because I’m afraid of Akiyama.
Kim Shin-hwa – I don’t know what that crazy man is planning, but if I wait any longer, I might suddenly have to deal with the goblin and then Kim Shin-hwa.
Of course, if Kim Shin-hwa faces Go Kyung-soo, who is ready for battle… … . The one screaming might be Kim Shin-hwa.
Anyway, Go Kyung-soo’s nickname is Gun-Dog.
The nickname ‘Dog of Battle’ was not given for no reason.
* * *
The fighting officials of the Foreigners Management Office sigh with tired expressions.
Busan is a city surrounded by mountains and the sea.
The problem cannot be solved just by controlling the roads.
Even the opponent is a wizard who can not only fly in the sky but also change his appearance at any time.
That’s not the only problem.
“We captured people of different races attempting to enter the country illegally at Busan Port.”
“We arrested a man with hidden weapons in the back seat. “It seems like they were probably troubleshooters who smelled an incident and entered.”
“We caught about 60 suspects suspected of being organized criminals during toll gate inspections, but it is difficult to detain them because they have no prior criminal records.”
“Dark King, it looks like he chartered a tour bus and sent the kids there?”
“About 40 cult members who were arrested are fleeing toward downtown Busan.”
Suspicious forces are flooding into Busan.
“What should we do when we hear that an armed group hired by Cure Medical Care chased someone with supernatural abilities in the back alleys near Songjeong Port?”
“It is said that gangsters belonging to the Shinsegae faction got into a fight with a certain Korean-Chinese with supernatural abilities. Shall we check?”
Incidents and accidents happening everywhere.
Yang Seo-ho, who was listening to the subsequent report, frowned and asked a question.
“What is the New World School?”
“This is an organized crime group operating near Songjeong.”
“Ah, are these kids from this neighborhood?”
“That’s right.”
“Tell the local police here to beat me up if they don’t want to see me accidentally kill someone from Busan.”
“… … All right.”
A new problem arises before one problem can be solved.
“13 armed vehicles are running away on Gangbyeon-daero! “We request the support of the SWAT team.”
“… … Ah, that’s annoying.”
Ttuk-duk-dudduk-
An ominous sound can be heard from the tips of Yang Seo-ho’s hands.
Combat officials look at Yang Seo-ho with anxious expressions.
“Let’s just declare martial law and shut everything down.”
The expressions on the faces of people around me turn pale.
This is Yang Seo-ho’s declaration and no one else’s. If you declare that you will do it, you will end up doing it.
There is no one who can pick up Yang Seo-ho’s declaration… … .
Oh, it’s not like it’s not there!
The gaze of combat officials moves in one direction. Shin Woo-jin felt his gaze and blinked his eyes for a moment before sighing and saying.
“Team leader, please speak up.”
“no?”
“It’s not that I don’t like it, it’s that I can’t do it.”
“Just create a situation in advance for me to do that?”
purr-
The floor beneath Yang Seo-ho’s feet crinkles with an ominous sound.
The combat officials around me said, “Ugh!” They all step back while making a sound.
“Why is the floor like this? Hey, hey. Yes, you. you. Tall kid. you.”
The ‘tall kid’ awkwardly standing nearby said, “Huh? to?” while pointing at himself.
“Yes, you. “What’s your name?”
“I-i-i-i, this is Lim Hee-young.”
A combat official trembles and answers.
“Uh, Heeyoung. You call the mayor of Busan and tell him that since the earth is about to collapse, he should declare martial law and confine all humans to their homes. “Earthquakes have been occurring since a while ago, and people are getting hurt.”
“to? “Huh?”
At the same time, Shin Woo-jin jumps up while making a roaring animal sound.
“Team leader, I told you not to do that!”
Shin Woo-jin clings to Yang Seo-ho while using harsh words.
“Ah, bother. Quit it. Hey, Heeyoung, don’t do that.”
“Yes, yes!”
“The team leader keeps saying that, so everyone is saying the same thing! Do you know what the mayor of Busan said the other day?”
Yang Seo-ho frowned while listening, without even thinking about it-
“I understand, get out of the way.”
He extends his hand towards Shin Woo-jin.
A light movement to push the opponent’s chest.
A daily routine that anyone can do toward a familiar target… … .
“Ahh!”
Shin Woo-jin hurriedly takes two steps back even though his hand couldn’t reach him.
“hmm… … .”
Yang Seo-ho’s hand twitches awkwardly in the air.
Awkward silence.
Everyone in the emergency response room is looking at Yang Seo-ho.
The embarrassment in their eyes.
fear.
A gaze directed at an alien being.
“Oh, no. manager? “This is not that.”
Shin Woo-jin approaches Yang Seo-ho in an awkward manner.
“joy.”
Yang Seo-ho, who had his outstretched hand bitten off, questions a nearby civil servant.
“Where is the riverside earlier?”
“yes?”
“I heard there is a biker gang? “Where did you say by the river?”
“Go, it’s Gangbyeon-daero.”
“And where is the mobile squad to take it out? “I’m going to catch you, so tell the riot squad to do what they’re doing.”
“manager. I am… … .”
“That’s enough, just look at the kids.”
“… … All right.”
