김석진
These guys are crazy, huh?
민윤기
...her...
박지민
This is crazy.
김남준
Are you crazy?
The sight the four people saw inside the room was shocking.
The hidden space was much larger than the office, covered in blood splatter everywhere. For some reason, one wall was covered with axes, knives, and other dangerous weapons. These too were covered in blood, and mold grew everywhere.
And on the opposite wall was a pile of ice chests, and next to them was a pile of sandbags and a pile of sand that had already been thrown over, raising dust.
Between the piles of sand, a faint crimson red color seemed to be visible, and in another corner, a large box roughly stacked up and a bundle filled with something were scattered about.
"Ugh... F*ck..."
"Catch those bastards!!!!"
pop-!!
"Khak... what the!!! What kind of new X is this!!!"
In an instant, an unidentified white smoke burst out from nowhere and surrounded the room.
People flinched, unsure of what to do in the sudden situation, and the four men outside took advantage of the opportunity. They quickly penetrated the smoke and began attacking the men.
김태형
Nice Park Jimin!!
The white smoke was a smoke bomb secretly set off by Jimin.
Seokjin and Yoongi each took turns engaging in hand-to-hand combat. Taehyung and Jungkook wielded a jackknife and a dagger, respectively. Yeoju wielded a pistol and waded through the smoke. Before long, the room was filled with nothing but spurting blood and screams.
"Kwaaaaaaaaaa..."
A suffocating sound that sounds like it came straight from hell.
That was the last one.
Before I knew it, the smoke had almost cleared, and the gruesome scene after the fight that had been hidden slowly came into view.
김석진
...after...
김태형
Is everything sorted out?
Taehyung glanced around at the people lying on the floor, then wiped the blood from his face and asked.
And the rest of the people, of course, and I too, were no longer the neat and tidy people I had seen in the morning, but were covered in blood with small wounds on their red-dyed shirts and their hunched arms.
김석진
Uh. I've roughly dealt with the people inside here.
Seokjin answered, breathing heavily. Judging by the large man lying beside him, covered in bruises, he must have had quite a struggle.
김석진
Kim Yeo-ju, first, lock the door and put a sign outside saying you're not working today. So no one can come in.
김여주
Oh, yeah.
김석진
There's no real need to see anything over there, since it's an armory. Just look at these ice chests, sand piles, and sacks. I think something else definitely happened here.
민윤기
...I have a prediction, can I tell you?
Yun-gi, who had been listening silently, raised his hand and asked to speak.
김석진
What is it?
민윤기
There are probably body parts in that pile of sand.
김남준
...yes?
정호석
What is that...!!
Everyone was shocked by the unexpected words coming out of his mouth. What on earth had he seen that made him think that far?
민윤기
Listen.
Yun-gi continued, taking slow steps toward the sand pile. We, too, kept a certain distance from him and continued speaking, our eerie feelings leaving us behind.
민윤기
I've seen a lot of guys like this.
민윤기
These lunatics disguised themselves as loan sharks, then came to steal or kidnap customers' organs. They set a trap, claiming that only women were eligible for loans, because women were easier to capture.
민윤기
But even if they were somehow caught, they often died on the way or were caught because the bodies were not disposed of after organs were removed.
민윤기
Do you know why?
김여주
...
민윤기
It's simple. The body will eventually decompose.
민윤기
Even if you bury it in the ground, mold will grow around it and the plants will die, and even if you throw it into the sea, at least one arm or leg will float.
민윤기
So what can we do first to eliminate the microbes and pathogens that cause decay and odor?
"......"
Silence flowed. Yoongi looked at each of his team members' faces, then reached into the sand and pulled out something that looked like a club.
민윤기
It's buried in the sand.
...burying it in the sand... then...
김여주
What is that in your hand... No way...
민윤기
...uh.
"Bridge. Human bridge."
