Theatrical Regression Life Chapter 476

Episode 476

Han Do-yoon, who was listening to the call next to Hong Gyeong-jun, asked Hong Gyeong-jun, who hung up the phone.

“Are you okay?”

“What if you heard everything? “Yes, you’re okay.”

“If you look at the way you kindly inform while you’re berating , I can tell you that the detective is also very kind.”

“okay.”

Hong Gyeong-jun turned his head and looked at Kim Ki-jeong.

“How is it?”

“…It looks like everyone is still hanging around upstairs…”

Kim Ki-jeong, leaning against the bathroom door with his eyes tightly closed, was watching the movents of the monsters around him.

The location they were in was the bathroom on the first floor of Building A of Eonhak High School. Due to the nature of the first floor, monsters did not co and go often, and since the bathroom in Building A was close to the entrance, it was easy to escape during school dismissal ti. Of course, if you stumble for even a mont, you will be caught by a monster or trapped for several hours.

“Hmm…”

Kim Ki-jeong, who was crouching down, carefully opened his eyes.

“It seems a little different from last ti.”

“Has it changed?”

“yes. I should say that overall, there are fewer monsters and their gait seems to be more relaxed than before. If the monsters used to be a little faster, they are now very slow and heavy…”

“That’s good news.”

When it’s ti to leave school, monsters will co to catch the survivors. The fact that the monster’s speed had slowed down was a huge boon to those of us who had to escape.

Han Do-yoon sat down next to Kim Ki-jeong and said.

“Could it be because you captured the final boss? Of course, I know that the word ‘final boss’ was a na given by Lee Jae-heon to help us understand, but… in any case, it would not have had an impact on the large building itself called Eonhak High School.”

“It is a reasonable argunt. Not only in Eonhak High School but also in the park, monsters like the final boss seed to notice or avoid other monsters. “It would have had minimal impact, so it wouldn’t be strange to think that the final boss’ death lowered the difficulty of the building itself.”

Hong Gyeong-jun, who nodded his head in agreent, asked Kim Ki-jeong.

“Has anything else changed?”

“…I wonder if you want to find out too much information just from the sounds… I just told you what I felt, so it may not be solid information.”

“I am taking that into consideration and asking for advice. “I have this in mind, so you don’t have to worry.”

Hong Gyeong-jun thought to himself as he responded to Kim Ki-jeong’s words. As expected, Kim Ki-jeong had a sensitive and caring side.

However, seeing them cooperate so much clearly seed like a camaraderie had developed. Even though he speaks harshly, he is much more proactive now compared to when we first t at the park.

‘Even though there was an offer to go to Unhak High School, he pretended not to be and accepted it.’

When Hong Gyeong-jun saw Do-yoon Han, who would have presented his ‘opinion’ at the ti, he smiled and opened his mouth.

“But you’re amazing, Detective. “Did you co to Unhak High School to contact the survivors?”

“…As I said before, I had so business to do nearby. “It was a natural choice for .”

In fact, he had co to investigate Eonhak High School, where Seong Dae-yeong stayed nearby for both sleeping and work. I was wondering if there were any traces or evidence left by Seong Dae-young, who is clearly an industry figure.

Lee Jae-heon used this party to kill Seong Dae-young, but it was clearly illegal. I know that what happened at the ti was done out of Lee Jae-heon’s favor, but it was a thod that never pleased Hong Gyeong-jun, and since he was not ousted through a legal process, I didn’t know what danger would remain in that area.

‘It would be especially troubleso if a body were buried at Eonhak High School, where Seong Dae-young stayed.’

The laws and rules of the world existed to prevent such confusion. In Hong Gyeong-jun’s opinion, Seong Dae-young should have been properly investigated, obtained a statent, and then punished according to the laws of society.

However, since this had happened, Hong Gyeong-jun, who knew the situation, had to at least properly clean up the situation. With the help of his colleague, Detective Ahn, Hong Gyeong-jun was able to co to Eonhak High School to investigate without difficulty.

‘So I ca here because I thought I could ask sothing to the students and teachers at Eonhak High School…’ As soon as I

parked the car near the school and got out, I found myself in a different world.

It would take a long ti to even get to the park, the eting place, so the first person Hong Gyeong-jun contacted after entering Unhak High School without any further thought was Kim Ki-jeong. The intention was to first select sub-mbers who were unlikely to have co to the underworld. No matter how much you think about it, Kim Ki-jung didn’t have the qualities to be a main mber.

But unfortunately, this ti, perhaps because of Han Do-yoon, Kim Ki-jeong entered the secret world and received a call from Hong Gyeong-jun. They were said to have been eaten while stopping at a nearby restaurant, so when Hong Gyeong-jun told them that they were in Unhak High School alone, they ca to the school in person.

‘…I guess I can’t tell the truth about this situation.’

Hong Gyeong-jun sighed and swallowed the words about Seong Dae-young.

The survivors must have sohow forgotten what happened about Seong Dae-young, so I didn’t intend to make them upset by saying things like ‘It’s not over’ for no reason.

“I didn’t want to go back to a language high school, but the problem was that I wasn’t sure if I could talk to other schools and I had to figure out the rules again. “I thought it was rather comfortable to go to Unhak High School because as long as you don’t go up, you won’t encounter monsters and you can leave when the ti cos.”

Hearing Hong Gyeong-jun’s words, Kim Ki-jeong wrinkled his face as if he was tired just thinking about it.

“Ugh…”

Kim Ki-jeong didn’t seem to have co because he particularly liked it.

“It’s really dirty….”

“Are you okay?”

“It’s a well-cleaned bathroom, but why does it feel so dirty?”

“It’s like this wherever you go in the underworld.”

“That’s why I don’t like it…”

Kim Ki-jeong, who was curled up with his long body, was caught up in Han Do-yoon’s pace as always and was a case of accompanying him to Unhak High School.

Even if I wasn’t particularly involved, I wouldn’t want to be left alone. Kim Ki-jeong also probably thought that it was safer to be with the survivors, no matter how dangerous it was.

Hong Gyeong-jun, who had a random thought, asked the two.

“Now that I think about it, you said you were looking for a good restaurant. Are you two here?”

“yes? No, my brothers and I went together to greet Mr. Kim Ki-jeong.”

“older brother?”

“Ah… firefighters. My brothers and sisters who stay with . One of them knew Kim Ki-jeong, so we sohow ended up having a conversation. “He ca while I was eating.”

“So that’s what happened.”

In reality, Kim Ki-jeong was known as a famous conductor, although he was particularly dull in the behind-the-scenes world. I thought that soone who likes sophisticated music would know.

“I feel good because Kim Ki-jeong seems to have more friends.”

“…Detective, are you arguing? “Are you arguing about this?”

“Why do you think that?”

“….”

Kim Ki-jeong, who was contorting his face as if he wanted to swear sothing, closed his eyes again. It seed like he thought it would be better to monitor the monster’s movents rather than continue a heated conversation. Hong Gyeong-jun and Do-yoon Han respected Kim Ki-jeong’s judgnt.

Han Do-yoon asked Hong Gyeong-jun.

“First of all, the survivors who remained in this reality were teacher Lee Yun-byeol and the owner of the soup restaurant?”

“Not yet.”

“Oh my gosh…”

Choi Min-hong is a confird mber, so he must have been in the secret world, but since President Choi Jeong-man couldn’t be contacted, it seed like only Choi Min-hong was in the secret world this ti. This ti, the father’s feelings for sending his son to death alone were not easy to predict.

“Maybe the phone is on silent mode, but Minhong Choi can’t contact either.”

“Did Seo-ah also say no?”

“yes. Since they are young children, ensuring their safety is important, so I contacted them after Kim Ki-jeong, but neither of them answered the phone.”

“I hope it’s not a big deal.”

Muttering like that, Han Do-yoon picked up his phone again and Hong Gyeong-jun also searched for other contact information.

“I will call student Dayoung Park.”

“Then I’ll try walking the babies again. “Do you think Seo-ah looks at her phone more often?”

Kim Ki-jeong’s cell phone was smashed by a monster on the way, so only Hong Gyeong-jun and Do-yoon Han were left to understand the situation of the survivors.

This was when I made another call to people I hadn’t identified yet.

“uh.”

“….”

Almost at the sa ti, the call connection tone between Park Da-young and Jang Seo-ah was cut off.

“Seo? “Should I stand?”

“…Student Dayoung Park?”

There was no word on the other end of the phone.

As I listened, I could hear slightly rough, yet suppressed breathing. After that, the sound of birds or the soft cries of insects could be heard from afar.

As if I were in a jungle sowhere…

‘Jungle?’

Is it hiding sowhere like a park?

Judging by the fact that there was no word from the other party when they received the call and the frustrated breathing, it seed like they were both hiding sowhere. Han Do-yoon and Hong Gyeong-jun, who were assessing the situation, felt a sense of déjà vu and looked at each other.

After exchanging glances, Hong Gyeong-jun asked.

“…Are you two together by any chance?”

With those words, Park Da-young’s cell phone connection was cut off.

And then a familiar voice ca from Jang Seo-ah’s cell phone. It was Park Da-young’s.

―…Yes, we are together.

“…Are you in a position where you can talk?”

-For now.

“Are there any more survivors nearby?”

―Park Da-hoon. Jang Seo-ah and Choi Min-hong. …Song In-myeong.

“yes?”

―The fourth corner of the aquarium. Entrance to the Amazon of the world.

“….”

―They said that Mr. Lee Jae-heon was also inside.

Dayoung Park continued.

-Check survival every hour.

Then it cut off.

“….”

“….”

In the silence that ca.

The first to open his mouth was Han Do-yoon.

“…the hot place was over there.”

There was no evidence, but for so reason it seed like the final boss was also over there.

* * *

After finishing the call, Park Da-young put her cell phone in Min-hong’s bag.

Song In-myeong, who was curled up with his large body next to her, whispered and asked.

“I heard you’re alive?”

“I don’t think you even know you’re here.”

“What does she know how to do?”

“Even if our detective criticizes us, we criticize him. “Shut up.”

“You’re so annoying…”

“Please shut up…”

The two, who had been having a conflict at low decibels, silenced themselves at the approaching muddy sound.

Splat!

“….”

“….”

Slosh, slosh…

slosh.

Churrrrrrrrrrrr.

‘Fucking bastards.’

‘If I die, it’s all because of that bastard.’

Song In-myeong and Park Da-young cursed at each other internally.

The place they are at is the ‘Amazon of the World’, the fourth corner of the aquarium. As if it lived up to its na, it was a the zone filled with trees and dangerous creatures, similar to the park in front of Oseong headquarters. The student team was realizing first-hand how dangerous this place was.

As a wet figure passed by, Park Da-hoon muttered softly.

“…I should have run straight to the exit on the other side as soon as I ca in.”

“Is it okay?”

“I guess so.”

Park Da-hoon had no energy to get angry at Song In-myeong’s scolding, so he nodded obediently.

Even in his opinion, it was impossible to take two kindergarten students with small arms and legs and run to the right exit that could not be seen in one go in this dense jungle where it was difficult to find a path.

Besides, the situation was bad.

“…are you bleeding a lot?”

“Don’t fucking stop. “Fuck you.”

“It’s really crazy…”

The first corner they ca across, ‘Stream Friends’, was full of dangerous creatures that would bite anything that got into the bottom of the water.

After several trials and errors, he found the way and was able to reach the exit on the other side, but the body of Song In-myeong, who had beco the victim, was in a very tattered state.

“If only it weren’t for you…”

“You brought it upon yourself and stop complaining.”

Song In-myeong made a crazy remark that he wanted to hang kindergarteners on each of his feet and use them as shoes to cross the river.

Kindergarten students, who are still just children, cried because a screw was loose, Park Da-hoon was busy protecting the child, and Park Da-young slapped Song In-myeong.

Park Da-young declared that she would definitely report this to her uncle, and Song In-myeong obediently gave up.

I decided to help these kids anyway. In the end, I checked the first path once. Once by Dayoung Park, once by Dahoon Park, and once again by carrying two kindergarten students at once. In total, Song In-myeong moved the children back and forth across the water bottom four tis.

Thanks to this, Song In-myeong’s feet and ankles were now full of all kinds of holes. Song In-myeong quietly complained.

“Who did I end up like this? Are you mistreating ? “Do you have no conscience?”

“So you’re a person with a conscience, so you say you’re going to use children as shoes? uh? Do you have a conscience and go around killing people on a regular basis? “You really sat there saying sothing funny?”

“I don’t have a conscience, but you should…!”

“Even the right words make mad. And does this seem like a form of abuse for lack of conscience? Who made these little kids cry first? “I’m trying to punish you for this pain.”

“Bad…”

After a short curse, Song In-myeong closed his mouth. It didn’t seem like he was reflecting on anything, and when I tried to say more, he seed to be the only one who was tired.

He stuffed the bandage into the inside of his shoe. Perhaps because the bleeding didn’t stop, I could feel blood dripping from the inside of my shoe.

I didn’t really care about the terrible pain, but there was another problem.

“…If we keep this up, we’ll get caught.”

The sll of blood was so strong.

“Why is there a hole in your shoe?”

“Let’s not pretend not to know. “It really slls bad because the blood has accumulated inside.”

The hot and humid air also played a role in spreading the sll.

Song In-myeong, who had already realized that the bleeding would not stop, took off his shoes and went back and forth across the bottom of the water to avoid leaving traces like Hansel and Gretel. It was judged that the destructive power of creatures on the bottom of the water would easily destroy shoes.

Perhaps my judgnt was right, and I was able to avoid leaving traces of blood on the way here. It was truly a stroke of luck. It was a wise choice.

‘I didn’t know that the feeding corner in the middle would change like that.’

Song In-myeong clicked his tongue.

Next to ‘Stream Friends’, there was a feeding experience area. Perhaps because they relied on sight rather than sll, the monsters there rushed at them. It was too harsh a treatnt for them as they could not identify any weaknesses other than the fact that it looked like a crushed fish-like biological sli.

I sohow escaped and ran all the way to the ‘Amazon of the World’, but the monsters did not stop chasing even though it was not their territory. Apparently, they had a weak sense of sll and relied heavily on sight, so they could avoid them by hiding, but they were not the only problem.

“No matter how much I think about the things in here, I can’t help but sll the sll of blood…”

An Amazon corner that truly lives up to its na. Sniffing sounds were coming from all over the place.

Even if you can avoid biological slis by staying far away and hiding as much as possible to avoid their scent, how can you avoid other monsters that sll amazingly?

Song In-myeong let out a long sigh. The sa was true for Dayoung Park.

“What a shitty situation…”

“You’re not even hurt. “You guys, excluding , just find an exit and run away.”

“Then I’m abandoning you and running away.”

“Oh… Surprisingly, you are the type of person who feels guilty about sacrificing soone…?”

“If you sacrifice soone, you should feel guilty of course. “Did you just say it was unexpected?”

Park Da-young spit out words as if she were swearing.

“I don’t want to be indebted to you if I leave you behind, but my body and mind won’t accept if I take you with .”

Survive with the help of a serial killer?

Survive through his sacrifice?

Anyone with normal sensibilities would agree that it was a truly frustrating and frustrating situation. Park Da-young was a person with extrely ordinary sensibilities.

And Park Da-young was in that situation.

“Damn it.”

“You were so fawning in front of this bastard…”

“You lost.”

Park Da-hoon, holding the children in his arms as the two strong n fought, thought.

‘I miss you uncle.’

Monsters and humans, there was nothing that wasn’t scary.
