I'm still alive

Nineteen people are presumed dead and missing, and there are only a large number of injuries that have yet to be counted. Despite the short battle, the damage was more serious than expected, and the aftermath of the battle seemed very severe. Considering the rapid retreat that occurred even before the operation was over, this kind of casualties were not understandable.

I used my busy medical staff and belated support to move all of the injured at the front door into the hospital. And one of the wounded, who was holding on to his mind, gave him warm water and blankets and asked him about the whole battle.

The wounded man, barely swallowing warm water, could not speak for a while because he was worried about something. But we knew what caused the hesitation, so we promised to keep it secret. Then, the young-looking combat team began to stammer and continue the conversation.

Eden's battle tank was a plant in the greenhouse. Also, the deadly biting of a desk and selfishness that added poison to the weakness were bound to cause further anger. Kim Yun-sik was the leader of the Horseman Combat Team, who had no knowledge and experience in command, and prepared for the fight with very simple physical training and clumsy command. And the result is a devastating defeat, as expected.

Murders and combat-savvy vagrants easily killed the combatants, but even though they had quality weapons and equipment, they did not kill a vagrant easily. Was that a lot of numbers? No, it was just a flock of sheep in front of many wolves.

As soon as the battle begins, the formation collapses, and even the command system collapses due to the monsters who break into the middle. Soon after, Kim Yun-sik and some of the combat team executives' quick escape spread the damage, and many of the combat team members were said to have been isolated there without even being ordered to retreat. In the end, the combat team managed to escape to Eden with only the injured as soon as we got out of the big mart.

A patchwork made by incompetent superiors and irresponsible middle-level officials. This serious damage has been caused by some people blinded by power and performance. The young combatant was unable to continue his words and burst into tears. Knowing what that fear and fear was, I was able to lead him into the hospital room and finish all the work.

I exhaled my breath, wiping away the blood soaking in my hands with a cloth. I arrived exhausted, but I didn't have time to take a breather because I was in charge of the post-war treatment. The moment I decided that all the action was over, I flung myself down the hospital hallway, which was swamped with blood and bandages. And the old man next to me said with an unusually tired face.

The head of the group will not let it go.’

'I'm sure so.'

This was an operation that wouldn't have been carried out without my abandonment of operational control. Contrary to expectations, however, Kim Yun-sik and the combat team have been so incompetent and have caused the sacrifice of the rank-and-file members, perhaps the residents of Eden. Through this incident, the head of the group, who had been looking down on Kim Yoon-sik, could never have stayed still.

With Kim Yun-sik's disciplinary action almost certain, no one knew whether the group leader's blade would end Kim's political life or Kim's life itself. The ice-like atmosphere of Eden was just telling us that the end of Kim Yun-sik would never be good.

Of course, if it were me and the elderly, I would have cut off his life line. But Eden, which retains the remnants of civilization, had laws and rules that were the starting point of man. If you were to kill him just because you failed the operation, the aftermath might create an unexpected variable.

Then the question was what should we do?

I licked my dry, torn lips with my tongue in the cold wind. The enemy in front of us poses a potential threat. But the leash tied to the enemy was giving the opponent or us a cause that could not be moved recklessly. A situation in which the back of the water is scary, and the front of the water is scary. I sat like that for a long time and watched the dusk sinking slowly.

Dong-yoon, do you have anything left on the Supreme Prosecutors' Office?’

The Great Sword? The old man, who was exhaling his breath as if he were spewing out cigarette smoke, slowly hands out to me. Oh, I remembered an old man who was showing a great throwing technique at a large supermarket. Perhaps they used all the daggers they took from there. I pulled the sword from my waist and held it out to the old man, and the old man accepted it with a significant face. A smile just like a rascal was on my mind.

'Brother! Have some of this!'

At that moment, there was a lively voice of Yong-pal at the end of the corridor. Turning to the place, the busy group was walking toward the place with tired faces. Whether they had been waiting for us, there was a pretty delicious piece of rice ball in their hands.

Come to think of it, I didn't remember eating proper food for a while. Is that why? As soon as the tension was eased, the steam-raising rice balls naturally caught my eye. I accepted Yongpal's rice balls and shared half and half with the old man. It's salty and savory....... quite a familiar taste.

'By any chance, did Mr.Sullyeon do it for you?’

Then Yong-pal nodded his head instead of eating his rice balls in a hurry. He must have been very hungry eating with a lot of rice grass in his mouth, so when he turned his eyes, other party members were already eating rice balls in a hurry. Yong-pal, who was running away from Du-sik asking for more rice balls, swallowed the remaining rice grains in his mouth and told me.

'When we said we wouldn't be able to make it in the evening, he brought it all the way here.’

I was lost in thought for a long time, looking down at the rice balls. Then Du-sik hurriedly crumpled it into his mouth to catch his eye on my rice balls. And I imagined her face, rolling a grain of rice in her mouth, and rushing all the way here. If you're here, let's see each other. I swallowed my nose for no reason and sucked sesame oil from my hands.

"Mr. Dong-

While I was drinking water from Yongpal, I heard a voice calling my name from far away. I drank the water without turning my head because it was a familiar voice that I always heard when I came in after finishing my duties. And I whispered quietly as my steps came near.

'Another meeting, huh?

The silver-rimmed glasses seemed to have come to us after finishing busy back and forth. He was sweating so hard even in this cold winter, as if he were very busy. When he saw him, the old man, who was eating rice balls in the corner, flicked the rice paste as if he knew it would happen.

Let's get some rest, you bastards!

I agree with you. When our group looked at themselves with a look of "not so good," Eun-te's glasses looked especially perplexed and at a loss of what to do. When asked if it was a meeting again, he shook his head and showed his denial. The silver-rimmed glasses told us with a grim look as if they had finally come.

'This is the disciplinary committee.

At the end of the remark, the party quieted down. The old man poured rice balls into his mouth without saying anything, and Detective Kang, who was not familiar with the past, just packed the party's luggage instead. And Kim Hye-jung's nose was full of excitement at first sight. I smiled quietly, looking at the figure, and shook off the tension, clenched and unfolded hard fists in the cold.

I remembered the day I first came into Eden. It wasn't that long, but it felt very old, perhaps because of the situation stained with hardship and adversity. It is time to finally clean up the image of Kim Yun-sik, who was laughing unluckily, and make our own nest. I armed myself with the equipment I had brought back, and my mind was also heavily armed.

* * *

About an hour is left until the start of the disciplinary committee. In the meantime, we have decided to organize our testimony at the committee and make predictions about Kim's reaction. The silver-rimmed glasses that cared for us gave us plenty of time to take turns talking. No, in fact, silver-rimmed glasses were on our side, and he told us everything he knew and helped us prepare for testimony.

'How's the atmosphere?'

The old man asked the silver-rimmed glasses. Then the silver-rimmed glasses shook their heads, seriously curled their faces. The serious look gave Eden a glimpse of his surroundings before he could even speak.

'There's already been a rumor, and the residents are in a bad mood. I think the head of the group and the new executives are in the mood to get rid of it right now....and the situation is not good because the existing executives are against it.’

Already, Eden's leadership had a confrontation between group leaders, new executives and old executives. The power of the old executives who were said to have been with Eden since its establishment was never small, and the influence of the group leader who used us to emerge at once was also formidable. It was literally an even situation, and it was frustrating that Kim Yoon-sik could not take proper disciplinary action even though he was at fault.

'That's why they called us.’

My unconscious murmur was the answer. The party all nodded, and the silver-rimmed glasses lowered their heads with a face that they were really sorry. For Eun-te's glasses, the limbs of the group leader, our aid was a necessary situation, and I was the only one who could reverse the power structure. That's why we called you without giving you a break. I've had enough of a painful political fight, but....... This time the story was different.

'This is your last chance.’

I could see the central building in the distance, and the old man walking down the street recited quietly. Yes, this is the last chance. If we had killed our enemies with knives and guns, it was time to kill with our achievements and tongues. If I missed this opportunity, I always had to go out with the anxiety behind me. As long as I left my eggs and cubs in the nest, that should never have happened.

The party gave off a sharp air, just like the people before they went on duty. The faces were like blades of a sword that seemed to strike at any moment, and they were full of skill that no one could touch. My back was so strong while I was climbing the stairs through the cold wind. Soon after, when the conference room was opened, loud voices rang out from all sides to see if the committee had begun.

'That makes no sense! 19 dead, 19 dead.'

'No, who would want to work if you were deposed because you failed your mission?!’

The meeting room where the disciplinary committee began was five minutes before the opening. New and old executives shouted at each other today as if they were going to see the conclusion, with the group leader frowning. Now that each of us is making vitriolic remarks to each other and engaging in an endless dogfight, the situation has made us realize that we have come at the right time.

Bang!

I certainly did it on purpose. The silver-rimmed glasses opened the door of the conference room with all their strength, as if to let everyone know we were here. The sound of the wall and door banging rang out loudly, and we unintentionally attracted the attention of others. For a moment there was silence in the conference room, and everyone stopped in that posture and looked at me in the lead.

After

There are people on my back to protect. The old man pushed me slowly as if to cheer me up, and I, who was trusted, straightened my back and opened my shoulders proudly. Immediately I walked with my party without hesitation toward the chair in the middle. The silence of the meeting was heard only by our footsteps.

'Oh! Young man!'

Why is he here? When I turned my eyes to the sound of calling me, Park Dae-bak and some of his flock were sitting in what appeared to be an observation seat. Park Dae-bak, who looked so bored, waved his hands as I showed up. He said he had something to talk to the head of the group, but the look on his face seems to have worked out well. I bowed my head toward him, and plopped into my seat.

From the moment I entered the conference room, the atmosphere was changing strangely. The group leaders and new executives, who had been in a dark mood, rose up as if they had gained a solid support group, and Kim Yun-sik, who was blushing from one side, gritted his teeth and looked at us. How shameless a man is. The men who were about the age of their sons had died like that, and they seemed to have no remorse.

I licked my dry lips and cooled my burning heart. I wanted to pull out a gun and blow his head off. I wanted to ask you why you lived alone, why you abandoned them and ran away alone. However, now you have to deal with them only with your tongue and head. Hearts are hot, heads are cold. I tried hard to ignore them staring at me and prepared to open their mouths.

But there were too many people with hot heads.

'Yoon-sik, turn your eyes. before digging.'

The old man made vitriolic remarks at them, and Kim Hye-jung and Yong-pal raised their stop fingers that they had been waiting for them. At that moment, a sigh broke out of my mouth of its own accord.
