Chapter 348 – 348. Live Strong Even in Hell
“Ah…”
Kang Il-gu was unable to speak.
Her head went blank as she looked at the bruises of her battered wife and her children trembling in fear.
It felt like her veins were about to burst. I wanted to kill all the bastards right in front of my eyes.
However, I can’t. The moment the order is violated, the pain rises. He had no strength to resist. As a result of trying to gain too much from a weak subject, his entire family died.
“Honey…”
He was caught in a trap from which he could not escape. I can’t see the future at all
Where the hell did it get so twisted?
Ever since I didn’t listen to Hwang Ho-chun?
Maybe everything went awry from the point he decided not to stay behind when he could leave Seoul.
Apparently they had a chance to go down to Busan a month ago. Nevertheless, people from his rich village, including Kang Il-gu, insisted on Seoul.
They refused to leave, citing the reason that there were more supplies here. I didn’t have the courage to abandon the base I had already built and leave for an unknown place.
Yes, I chose a stable life. We don’t even know what kind of situation Busan is in, so we can’t just throw away our current base.
Kang Il-goo regretted the choice at that time.
Of course, it was already too late.
“Ah… Eunjung…”
“Honey..”
Families reunited.
The families of about 100 awakened people who had already died at the hands of Jang Jo-jun were classified separately.
Kang Il-gu turned his gaze away from them.
The future of the family where the head of the family died was obvious.
It seemed that the future of the weak left behind, who had no one to support, had already been decided.
That’s because the screams of those who were dragged to the back of the mart were coming all the way here.
Kang Il-goo decided to cover his ears.
He had no time to care about his other home.
How can I care about other houses in the yard where they are all going to die right now?
“Now. Quiet everyone!”
At that time, the man who introduced himself as Jang Jo-jun shouted again. Everyone had to keep their mouths shut. I couldn’t keep my mouth shut because I would be torn to pieces the moment I disobeyed that man.
“Okay then, the first game. Find locusts. Let’s pick the most useless person.”
So the first game started.
It was a game to pick the most useless family. The explanation of the game made no sense, but I had no choice but to follow it.
“For your reference, only families with three or more people can participate in the game to find insects. Families with two or fewer people fall to the side.”
When Jang Jo-jun ordered, the Korean-Chinese sidelined two-person households or single-person households in perfect order. It seemed like the idea of reducing the number of families from a large number.
“Oh, Dad…”
“Junhyung…”
Kang Il-goo’s second son, Kang Jun-hyeong, looked up at his father with tears in his eyes.
The face of his father, who had always been trustworthy, was distorted. His face was covered with pain, anger, and frustration at not being able to do anything about the situation.
Jun-hyung burst into tears at the despairing face of his father, whom he had never seen in his short life of only 8 years.
Jun-ho, his older brother, comforted Jun-hyung. Their mother, Shim Eun-jeong, abandoned her crying child and questioned her husband, Kang Il-gu.
“Honey.. Now how.. We..”
“That, that’s…”
“So I told you to just run away… Why… Why did you insist on fighting… You made it big… It’s all your fault… It’s your fault…”
“Eunjung..”
Kang Il-goo passed out. The wife’s reprimand and the son’s cry. Bruises and scars and fear on their bodies.
Moreover, the entire space was filled with such families. Screams and shouts. The cries of blaming each other do not stop.
If there is a hell in this world, it is probably here. Kang Il-goo dared to think so. This is hell.
“Tell me what to do..!!! What should we do!!”
“Ugh, Eunjung. Just calm down a bit…”
Kang Il-gu thought as he tried to stop his wife from running wild.
But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t figure out how to get out of this hopeless situation.
Just then, one of the Korean-Chinese approached.
“Ah…”
“Look. Did you pick the ‘insectivore’ of this house?”
“Oh no, that’s not yet…”
“Choose quickly. If you miss the order, you will be killed. I hate waiting for my master.”
“Ah.. Now, wait a minute. Just one minute… Just one minute…”
“30 seconds. Hurry.”
“Yes..!”
Kang Il-goo was worried that his head would explode for a short time.
‘I just need to live until there are only 500 left..’
However, I don’t know what the next game will be.
Therefore, if he fell in, there was a high probability that the rest of his family could be annihilated.
As a result, Kang Il-gu had no choice but to make a choice that would destroy his life. He must live I want to save my wife too. The same goes for his eldest son, his eldest son.
I bite my ten fingers, but there is no finger that doesn’t hurt…
Fingers are all different lengths.
“This… This child… This child will be my choice.”
The one he chose was his youngest son Kang Jun-hyung.
“Everyone, you are crazy!!!”
“Dad..!”
“…”
Soon, Kang Il-goo’s wife Shim Eun-jung shouted as she slapped her husband on the chest. Moreover, the older brother Kang Jun-ho tried to catch Kang Jun-hyung being dragged into the hands of ethnic Koreans.
However, Kang Il-gu could not catch his leaving son. He was too weak and didn’t have the courage to be taken instead.
In the end, despite the dissuade of the mother and brother, their young son and younger brother were grabbed by the hands of the Korean-Chinese and dragged behind the mart.
Watching the back of his disappearing son, a human named Kang Il-gu died here today.
By choosing his own child as a sacrifice, his heart died black.
A deep sense of despair oppresses Kang Il-goo’s soul.
Laughter echoed from the edge of the abyss.
******
“Ah, Mr.. Oh, Mr.., I’m scared.. Heuuuuu..”
“Ow, don’t cry. Because you live.”
The Korean-Chinese bit their lips as they dragged a boy the age of their own.
For some reason, that monstrous man did not kill children under the age of 10.
That meant that this child could live.
That alone made the Korean-Chinese feel fortunate. Even if he was a 12-year-old criminal, he was reluctant to kill such a child.
“Here, I brought the last child.”
“Oh, leave it here.”
“Yes..”
The man left the boy in the warehouse behind the mart and left.
It was full of dragged children.
“Ah…”
Kang Jun-hyung, the youngest son of Kang Il-gu, who had already been brought in, looked up at the Korean-Chinese people smoking cigarettes.
Their expressions were not as good as the people in the mart.
It has to be. The Korean-Chinese were also feeling skeptical about this crazy act.
However, I was following because I couldn’t refuse. It’s much better to just quietly obey than to die resisting.
Then someone opened the doorway to the warehouse and came inside.
At that moment, the air that had been blocked was released and a fresh breeze flowed into the warehouse.
“Hey, smoking in front of the kids isn’t good.”
“Ah…!”
“Oh, you came!”
Cigarette smoke dissipated at the same time as she appeared, and a refreshing scent that could only be smelled in the forest came.
“Are these children?”
“Ah, yes. That’s right..!”
“Hey! Quit smoking quickly!”
“Ah, sorry, sorry!”
Korean-Chinese bowed at 90 degrees in unison.
Standing in front of them was a very pretty woman with slightly long ears.
With her appearance, a refreshing scent spread all over the place.
It was the unique scent of a forest keeper.
“Ah…”
Kang Jun-hyung, who was crying out of anxiety, suddenly realized.
The fact that if you follow that woman, you will be able to live.
No matter how young you are, you have a survival instinct.
“Come on, kids. Is it cold Let’s go.”
She smiled and held Junhyung Kang’s hand, who was standing in the front.
With that alone, all the anxiety that had been nestled in Kang Jun-hyeong’s mind disappeared.
It was all because of the scent emanating from her.
In fact, the scent that emanated from her body was a kind of hypnotic.
The children sniffed the scent and followed her like a flock of mice led by the piper.
Soon after, dolls with the same faces that had been hiding all over the alley popped out and held the hands of the children.
All of them were dolls for babysitting made at Jeonyul Mansion. Now these dolls will take the place of parents.
“Hey, hey… Where are we going…”
Kang Jun-hyung asked Kang Hee-sun while walking down the street.
Kang Hee-sun answered his question with a smile.
“We are now going to the ‘land of dreams’.”
“It’s a country of dreams..?”
“Huh. There is also a fairy. There is a use Also, a place like that where there are a lot of cool older sisters and older brothers… It’s a very cool place where a drug-making grandfather also lives.”
“Wow…”
“Okay, when everyone arrives in the land of dreams, let’s go ride Yongyong.”
“Yongyong?”
“Huh. It’s a very big and cool winged lizard. It is golden and very pretty. Hey guys! Everyone is looking forward to it!”
“Yes..!”
“But, Auntie…”
“It’s not the lady, it’s the teacher.”
“Ah, sir! What’s your name, teacher!”
“I am six years old. How old are you, teacher?”
Once the water has been opened, the children raise their hands and ask questions.
Kang Hee-sun smiled and answered their question. As it turned out, they had arrived in front of Hyoseon Girls’ High School.
“Teacher! I’m hungry!”
“I am hungry too!”
“Okay? Didn’t you eat?”
“Yes… Dad didn’t give me dinner today…”
“I ate, but I’m hungry again!”
“Whoop whoop. Okay. Hey guys. After entering, let’s all wash up and eat snacks first. The teacher will make you something delicious.”
“Yes! Great!”
Hehe. Me too!”
“Me too, sir!”
Children’s laughter.
The darkness of the night was slightly lifted by the lively laughter of children, which even erased all the distant screams.
Kang Hee-sun smiled bitterly inwardly as she saw their bright smiles.
Knowing the situation Jang Jo-jun was in and his cruelly despising and skeptical tendencies, he couldn’t prevent further massacres, but he managed to get the children out somehow.
Kang Hee-sun was satisfied with this alone. Because Jo Jun listened to his insistence.
Of course, some women found this excess of authority undesirable.
However, Kang Hee-seon was leading food production at Hyo-seon Girls’ High School, so he didn’t say much.
In the first place, Jojun Jang allowed it, so no one could dispute it.
In any case, the children here were able to live thanks to Kang Hee-seon. Thanks to her little kindness, quite a few children were saved.
“Come on, boys. You can go in here now.”
“Uh..”
“Muh, I’m scared… Sir…”
“Are you okay. Just the entrance is a bit dark. Inside, other teachers and friends are waiting, so let’s go inside. Should we all say hello?”
“Yes..!”
Soon Kang Hee-seon sent her children into a black hole with no end in sight.
The land of her dreams that Kang Hee-seon told her children throughout her journey was…
It was in the depths of ‘Narak’.
