Chapter 67 – Heist Setup (1)

Heist Ready (1)

Pop – pop –

Drops of dark red blood regularly knocking on the hallway on the first floor of the student union building.

I shook the iron pipe loudly, frowning at the blood that had suddenly turned into a small puddle.

Chow-!

Blood and small pieces of flesh spread like paint on the wall opposite the bathroom.

While I reached the student center again, I shook the metal pipe loudly once more, thinking of the zombies I had brutally killed.

Cheak-!

Smaller amounts of blood staining the walls ran down the walls.

“Um—may I ask you a slightly presumptuous question, Director?”

A cautious question I heard while watching the blood run down the canvas wall like modern art.

I nodded my head coolly to Koh Goh, who was waiting with me next to me.

“Is it really okay to leave it as it is… I don’t know, chief.”

Following Goh Jang-hoon’s gaze, a convenience store delivery vehicle with an engine sound roaring in front of the front door enters.

I looked at Yoo Seo-joon, who was behind the wheel of a convenience store delivery vehicle, and answered Koh Jang-hoon’s concerns.

“Leave it. Even under Pang Hyeon-jae, he couldn’t do anything except grumble.”

I mean, it must have been Kapoor.

Nicknames that people call reveal quite a few aspects of that person in advance.

“Besides, it’s no lie that the library is a relative paradise compared to the student union.”

I looked around the library and looked back at Yoo Seo-joon’s eyes and the message announcing the state of ‘surrender’ in my head.

Anyway, Yoo Seo-jun had no other options other than my library.

“…”

Yu Seo-jun, who was waiting at the steering wheel, turned his head toward the hallway on the first floor, as if he felt someone’s gaze from that far away.

The eyes that naturally met me in front of the bathroom.

He hurriedly turned his head away from the gaze that connected him for a moment.

In an instant, Seo-Jun Yoo is frozen in the driver’s seat with a posture that has become so awkward.

I laughed lightly at his awkward posture and continued to stare at the frozen guy who never turned his head to me.

My name is Seojun Yoo.

Commonly known as ‘Kapoor’.

He was a person with special abilities that specialized in ‘vehicles’, as the popular name for announcing that he was specialized in something very openly.

The name of his first skill is also ‘Vehicle Registration’, very fitting for that specialization.

Vehicles registered in this way could be started and driven at any time without a separate key.

I heard from him that various ‘modifications’ are possible, such as attaching weapons or strengthening the engine to registered vehicles, but–

Classifying this as a ‘reasonable ability’ makes me tilt my head a little.

After all, no matter how it is modified, the limit of being only a ‘vehicle’ is so clear.

Widely-! Widely-!

I clapped my hands lightly to shake off any dirt that might still be there, and then retraced the journey from the convenience store car to the student union building.

Kihehehehehehe!

Zombie cubs rushing at me in awe of the rattling engine sound, and the artificial side roads I forcibly created by forcibly pulling roadside trees.

He shook his head, repeating the time it took to lead the group from the library to the student center.

Even now, Bang Dae-hwa was waiting in the plaza to protect that convenience store vehicle, so it must have been a very labor-intensive skill.

But-

“Kkeeung- hoo- hoo-“

I stared at the back of the camper passing me, nervous in case I looked.

A courier box full of something that the camper is moving while breathing.

The boxes of the camp members who were moving supplies from the student center were being loaded into the delivery vehicle one by one.

It was now impossible for the camp members to move supplies directly, unless it was the teachers’ college, which was too close to the distance.

If you think about it in that way, Yoo Seo-joon’s ability specialized in vehicles was ‘this ability’.

The physical ability that made oneself as hard as steel and the ability of Pang Hyeon-jae to cut off the five human senses in an instant were also exceptional.

Yoo Seo-jun’s ability was, to put it mildly, the ability to improve the ‘quality of life’.

Of course, if you think about it in that way, Paeng Hyun-jae was rather untouchable, but he had to be killed unconditionally because of an unknown variable, so at least Yoo Seo-jun had to be secured.

Especially since he was a specialized means of transportation who did not know when he would be able to get it again.

I silently shook my brain, repeating the state of the bastard who was still in succumb.

“Good times will come sooner or later.”

Awesome profit!

At that moment, the sound he had been waiting for finally came out.

A return that took much longer than expected.

I turned my gaze to Cha Seol-hee, who opened the door to the women’s bathroom and came out.

Sniff- sniff-!

Cha Seol-hee sniffs her coat with a small frown on her face.

Originally, the white shirt and jeans she was wearing were folded tightly and held around her wrists.

“… Does this smell a little strange?”

She came up in front of me and pointed at her top with a slight frown still on her face.

Her nan opened her mouth blankly as he glanced up and down her, changing her clothes into her white short-sleeved tee and her black tennis skirt.

A tennis skirt and a short-sleeved T-shirt with a comfortable design that leave a little bit of width on the back thanks to its excellent proportions.

I had only one thing to say about the collegiate work created by non-standard faces in a date look that gave off the feeling that female college students gave a lot of energy.

“… It’s pretty.”
“Of course it is.”

Tea Seol-hee shrugged her shoulders with a very shameless face after she said behind her, “Someone wore it.”

She crossed her legs slightly, creating a small breeze, as if to show what a pro idol she is.

Thanks to that, the fluttering and swaying tennis skirt and the white legs below it make it even more difficult to take one’s eyes off of it.

“And this tennis skirt. Do you know that it is an item that is too old even if it is out of fashion?”
“… So it must have been sent by courier.”

The clothes Cha Seol-hee was wearing were items stolen from the post office located in the student hall.

Courier boxes that were still left at the post office unable to leave for delivery due to the sudden zombie apocalypse.

I glanced at the steps in front, thinking of the camp members who were still opening all the parcels.

“…”

Goh Goh-hoon approaches Seol-hee Cha like a ghost only after my instructions are given.

He took the clothes Cha Seol-hee was holding for granted and approached me again.

“…”

Come to think of it, Koh Goh-hoon is just quietly silent without the usual lengthy flattery.

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud as I looked at Goh Jang-hoon, who was waiting for me to move.

A quick-witted bastard like a real ghost.

… So a crazy baby.

“So there’s not much to get in the basement cafeteria?”

I went up the stairs and went back to the main topic.

Koh Goh, who was climbing the stairs with me according to my stride, hurriedly answered.

“Yes, it seems that they completely neglected the first basement floor to save electricity. Thanks to that, the condition of the remaining food is not so good.”
“If the first basement floor was left unattended, there would be nothing to say about the canteen.”
“Yes, it seems that they mostly ate food from the canteen. Because of this, we cannot say that there is enough food left in the canteen.”

… People have increased, but food has not.

That wasn’t good news.

“Even if the food is in good condition, scrape it as much as possible. Everyone in the refrigerator must have returned too late.”
“Yes, manager.”
“Be sure to bring the freezer and refrigerator at the restaurant and the microwave and beverage refrigerator at the store.”
“Yes, manager.”
“Leave things that are too heavy for the campers to move. I will move it.”

I thought of the campers who would be searching the first basement floor where everyone had returned, albeit belatedly.

And even the benefits of civilization that allow them to continue hunting comfortably.

Tring-!

[Bonus of Tyranny]
[Oasis in the desert Lv.2]
[First step of modernization Lv.1]

The kingship rose explosively by securing the territory of the student hall and joining many survivors.

[Kingdom: 220]

The kingship, which quickly exceeded 200, unlocked the next page of fate.

As a result, the tyrant’s second grace choice was output to me again.

And that choice was undoubtedly the ‘first step of modernization’.

Tring-!

[First step of modernization Lv.1]

[Generates and stores 500 kW of electricity per day, limited to territories secured by the tyrant.]

Thanks to that, my territory, which was able to use electricity again just like Peng Hyun-jae, and—

[Oasis in the desert Lv.2]

[Generates and stores 600L of potable groundwater per day, limited to the territory secured by the tyrant.]

The first grace further strengthened with fate moving to the next page.

I couldn’t have smiled more deeply at the groundwater situation that was much more relaxed than before and the securing of electricity that would allow me to recover so many things.

The ‘benefit of tyranny’ that clearly explains why kingship is my only stat and why I desperately need to raise it more than any other reason.

I was already looking forward to the next grace, what grace to choose after water and electricity.

To unlock so many more destinies, you’ll need more kingship.

I had to have a lot more camp members, territories, and people with special abilities than now.

Thud- thud-

In the midst of thinking about the next Eun-hye, the footsteps came up the stairs and stepped down the hallway.

In order to go straight up to the 4th floor, I swung all the way to the 2nd floor, which I hadn’t looked closely at yesterday.

A bookstore full of bookshelves and a bank with a signboard with a familiar logo.

And I looked through the camp members of the pharmacy who were already sweeping up the medicines in the courier box obtained from the post office.

“Come to think of it, did you check the health clinic one more time?”
“Yes, another thorough search of the entire health clinic showed no sign of survivors.”

Tsk-!

As soon as Gao Hoon finished answering, he clicked his tongue and furrowed his brow.

A nurse who always resides at the health clinic in the student union building.

We have failed to secure medical workers who are so precious in this situation.

Perhaps Pang would have been trying to get a nurse if he wasn’t an asshole even now, so it’s fair to assume he’s already zombied or dead.

“First of all, remove all the beds in the health clinic and the girls’ common room here.”
“Yes, manager.”

Instead of pheasants, I used chickens to capture the beds overflowing in the student center, and continued to my original destination.

Tadadadad-!

Koh Goh-hoon hurriedly runs forward to the near-close destination.

He bent over at his destination and pointed at the open door with both hands.

“Hehe- please eat it, director. I will wait patiently at the door until you come out, hehe.”

… Also Koh Jang-hoon.

I tapped the smiling guy on the shoulder and started looking for the item I was looking for inside the warm lighting.

Folding fans and tumblers waiting for customers on the display stand.

A T-shirt embroidered with ‘B’, the initial of Banseok University, and

“… Oh, there you are.”

I let out a small exclamation when I found the item I was looking for in the souvenir shop.

Cha Seol-hee followed me as I hurriedly moved to the corner where the T-shirts were displayed.

I picked out the right size for her from the baseball jumper that stretched next to her T-shirt and handed it to her.

“…”

Cha Seol-hee quietly puts on the baseball jumper I gave her.

“… Oh.”

A baseball jumper put on top of a somewhat flat top.

I was once again in awe of the strange innocence that only Gwajam could give.

I opened her mouth with her faint smile to her who perfectly expressed what I thought she was.

“She’s a female college student who never seems to have to worry about food and homework throughout school.”
“… Something about the analogy is blatant in a rather strange way.”
“Why? It’s natural to be pretty, so I expressed it in a bit colorful way.”

Cha Seol-hee is still looking at me with narrow eyes despite my jokes.

Her purrs were openly expressing that there was something very unpleasant about the corners of her mouth.

“… He asked me to go with him for some reason, and the reason was to change my clothes.”

She opened her arms, looked down at her clothes, and let go of her strength in her arms.

Took-!

“I feel like a doll that dresses me in pretty clothes.”
“Idols don’t have a lot of professionalism?”
“Is that the same as this? And I made a ton of money back then.”

Cha Seol-hee sticks out her mouth openly and grumbles.

Her I stretched out her strength and spread her arms as she let out a small smile as she looked at her as if she had lost some of her motivation.

“Come to work.”

Cha Seol-hee slowly followed my instructions even as she looked at me with her weak eyes.

Her arms held her twinkling tight – even for the slightest reason that her clothes had changed.

“Uhh-“

Cha Seol-hee calmly accepts the hug even though it is not light at all, making a sound of pain.

I slowly brushed the back of her hair and caressed her back with the rest of her hand.

Her continued gentle touch made me feel her whole body leaning on me, completely drained of her strength.

I put my mouth to her ear and whispered quietly.

“Next time I’ll put on stockings too.”
“… As expected from someone who said professionalism, the sense of purpose is very clear.”

Because of her being so close to her, Seol-hee’s voice seemed to vibrate throughout her body.

I smiled lightly at her answer, but didn’t break the hug.
Cha Seol-hee’s body temperature is so warm that it gives you a cozy and dreamy feeling like a blanket.

I could feel Cha Seol-hee’s body trembling along with me as I couldn’t stand something at my continued laughter.

Took-!

“Don’t laugh. Because it’s not funny at all.”

Her voice murmured along with the touch of my waist.

I could feel her laughter so clearly that I couldn’t get it off of her voice, so I hugged her tighter as she let out her small smile once again.

Took-!

“… Don’t laugh.”

Seolhee Cha who kept hitting me like that.

We held each other’s hugs in the gift shop for quite some time.
