Chapter 20. Patriot (32)
* * * * *
I passed another intersection. I jumped from the rooftop of a not very tall building to the rooftop of the next building. It progressed step by step, just as it had done so far.
I entered a golf equipment store. I took off my salty white clothes from dried sweat and changed into fresh, clean clothes. When I came out of the locker room, someone was already waiting.
He slapped my wrist and took my tangled clothes. I didn’t bother to look for it. Because I already knew that if I didn’t give it to them generously, they would take it by force.
“If I have nothing to do, I just pick a golf club. “Swing full swing at the zombie’s head.”
When I said something to the men and women who were staring intently, they all started moving around. Meanwhile, I took a box of golf balls and threw them through the window of the building. The zombies who gathered at the sound of the kkwajangchang stepped on golf balls scattered on the street, fell, and bled.
It is meal time.
Even zombies know how to scream. Rather than a scream of pain, it was closer to anger. The distinction is easy. As you listen to it, does your blood run cold or does it make you feel hot too?
“Let’s go.”
Catherine kissed her on my cheek, no… She sucks my cheek once and leads me to her back door. Fortunately, when she looked in the mirror, she noticed that there were no marks left.
The intersection is already in chaos.
When entering a new area, stones were thrown at buildings windows and cars. An anti-theft siren was sure to sound somewhere. Then the zombies gather, and we move to a more secluded place.
If it had been done alone, it would have been very slow, but thanks to groups of 3 and 4 people moving forward, the speed of advancement was very fast. Everyone follows my hand gesture and throws stones in order. Sometimes they are discovered, but the group that is discovered lures them away by walking quickly, and the other group hits the back of the zombie’s head.
Like that, one block, two blocks, one by one, we get out. Everyone looks exhausted, and Elian announces her rest. From my perspective, it is working time.
“Hug me.”
I want you to hug me. Because we ran three streets, steam rises from both our bodies. As if standing next to a wood-burning boiler, their hot bodies rub against each other, their lips and tongues intertwine, and their hands move to each other’s chest. It was better to be distracted. Otherwise, they will try to take off your pants.
“Big… Whoop… ha…. Good. Okay…. I’m happy. Happy…. I’ve never felt anything like this….”
They may say so, but I can see it. The effects of the two concentrated pheromones that Cassandra gave me are gradually fading away.
I don’t know if the intensity was weak at first and then gradually increased, but now, on the contrary, it is the highest and then gradually becomes lighter. It means that although he likes me, he may not be following me as blindly and irrationally as he does now.
How do you know? Look at that expression. Although it was momentary, the characteristic horrified expression that comes with touching something dirty passed by. In fact, anyone would do that if they picked up someone else’s sweaty clothes, that is, unless they were a pervert. Of course, he likes to roll around on the floor and cover his face with those clothes, but he can’t just stay like this.
The medicine is not effective, so it’s me who has to work hard. When she sees a woman who is strangely hesitant, like she is now, who seems to be trying to escape her addiction, she gives the signal ‘this way’ and takes her to a secret place. Although other women complained, she knew that her turn would come someday, so she did not object.
“Umm. Ugh….”
I didn’t take off my pants because I had to keep running around, but I was still able to kiss and caress him. Of course, there are times when we try to cross the line due to each other’s mood or desire.
Cracked.
Every time, dear male comrades knock on the door with a rifle. Then the women still try to stay away from me, but not as blatantly as before. I guess it draws attention.
Of course, these male friends are definitely not trying to help me. Out of jealousy and injustice, all you can think about is sabotaging people and shooting them to death whenever you get the chance. Of course, I knew that if I did that, I might end up in the hands of my fellow female comrades, so I didn’t take any further action.
‘This is really dangerous.’
The first time I felt alarmed was at lunchtime today. During a short break, a man wearing glasses called me out. He was of average build, but his arm muscles were quite thick.
“Get away from Maya. “Do you understand what I’m saying?”
I walked towards the balcony, looking at the man in silence. It wasn’t that I was trying to remember because I couldn’t remember who Maya was, but that I was hoping that Camilla, Leticia, or Cassandra’s drone would find me quickly. It seemed like they had missed my location because I had gone through several buildings.
“… Are you ignoring what I say now? Stop!”
The man makes a crunching sound and breaks his neck. He said that if you force it, it’s not good for your joints.
“Why?”
I walked steadily with the attitude of ‘I don’t listen to your orders’ and opened the window. He is not cool, but the lukewarm wind tickles the back of his head. In the hope that the drone camera would find me, he spread his arms wide and draped them over the balcony railing. Somehow the guy with glasses seemed more excited.
“Maya was an innocent and pure child! She was kind, honest, and on Sundays she was a catechism teacher to young children. She was like a white drawing paper, always smiling and acting selflessly. You, you, that kind of child… !”
I was embarrassed. Could it be that he was Maya’s boyfriend? Could it be that I have committed the mortal sin of stealing someone’s lover?
“Are you two married?”
“… “I will, soon!”
I didn’t want to ask, ‘Who is Maya?’ Then I thought it would look like trash. The damn drone camera still can’t find me. Usually, he would knock on the hotel room window and run away! Can not be done. The more you move here, the more likely you are to not find it. You have to take your time. I wanted to comfort the glasses as much as possible.
“Why are you laughing so excitedly!”
“Sorry.”
I sincerely apologized. The guy with glasses paused. I added politely.
“She didn’t know she would become your companion. But if that was really the case between you two, I sincerely apologize. “But I’m not going to do it now.”
“Ha! Pretense. “For what?”
“Because what you’ve said so far is nothing more than a one-sided argument. In these matters, the opinions of the parties involved are also important. I need to hear it from Maya herself. Get her her here.”

The guy with glasses ran away, grinning. After a while she made quite a fuss and trudged back on her own. I thought she knew what had happened because she looked so downcast. In the end, I had to go out alone and call Maya. But who was Maya?
“Maya, where are you?”
The woman leaning against her pillar jumped up. Ah, I remembered. The mugworts were pushing her ass most aggressively.
“Hoot, did you call me?”
“Shall we go to the balcony for a moment? “I have something to say.”
Maya quickly hugged my arm, but the other women were the problem. She stood up holding something in each hand, but her spirit was ferocious.
“What can I do? “We can talk here, right?”
Maya wrapped her arms around my waist. She declared quickly before she could reach her hand into a more dangerous place.
“Well, I will tell you all soon. It’s a bit hard to say it publicly, so I’m going to sing it privately… “It doesn’t take that long!”
“Are you going to keep your promise? “My turn has already been pushed back three times!”
This woman’s name is… Err, I don’t know.
“Then come after Maya.”
I think I understand why ancient powerful people did not set up harems. I think having zombie wisdom teeth extracted would be less tiring than this. Looking at the guy with glasses fluttering her nostrils gave her a headache.
“What? Ali? “Why are you here?”
The woman who was as soft as hot butter became cold and chilly like an ice pick from a freezer. Ali, wearing glasses, is overcome by her energy. I took advantage of that opportunity and leaned on the balcony again.
“Wait a minute, Maya. Don’t come closer. Talk to me there. “What is your relationship with that man?”
“… Yes?”
Maya glares at her Ali with a displeased look on her face. This is what women often do when they hear, ‘Look, your boyfriend is passing by.’
“Aliyo is a neighbor and classmate who lived nearby. I am currently a member of Elian’s scout corps. “Why are you asking that?”
Ali’s face turned bright red. Tears welled up in her eyes. Shame. Shame. Shame on you. The corner of the glasses man’s mouth, who was looking at Maya and me alternately, slightly twitched. Anger. It’s anger. That guy is angry at me. But it’s a waste to get away with it here.
“Maya. It may be very embarrassing and difficult, but Ali seems to care about you very much. So, you’re a close friend. Are you a childhood friend who has been with you since childhood? “That’s right, right?”
I’m sure they won’t deny this. Maya nodded her head obediently.
“So?”
“Ali still seems worried about you.”
Her glasses look at me in quite surprise. Although my anger has not completely gone, I look towards Maya just in case. Okay. That’s it. Nothing will change if you blame the man who took it from you. It is right to be more devoted to the woman you love. It seemed to have worked, as Maya blinked her eyes rapidly.
“Ali? Why Ali?”
“I won’t even tell you that. But I….”
“Maya!”
That senseless bastard. Ali cut me off and listened. Maya glares at Ali with an even more unpleasant look. Ali’s attitude changes suddenly. Straighten her collar, stroke her head, brush her shoulders, straighten her as much as possible and try to straighten her back.
No way, dude. I said no. It’s not that. I don’t think that’s real.
“I know that you were a more innocent and kind child than anyone else in the world. So, this doesn’t suit you. “Give up.”
It feels like an invisible time bomb is ticking.
This is neither a confession nor an attack. It is a suicide confession attack. A confession that makes you want to explode into death regardless of whether you become a man who has let go of everything or not. So, in the distant future, when you look out the window of your cabin forlornly, you will take a small consolation and say, ‘But it was a good idea to try it once.’ It is such a shameful suicide attack.
“Ali, what are you talking about? Try to make me understand. Go back? The gas station in the neighborhood where we lived burst and exploded. There isn’t even a house left. First of all, it’s a northern district, so it’s a gang hotspot. By the way, do you want to go there?”
Uh, I’m not sure if being naive means being a bit dull or if I’m gritting my teeth and pretending not to notice. However, judging from the fact that they are biting slightly with their molars, it looks like it is from behind. This is the face of a woman who desperately pretends not to know because she doesn’t want to be awkward with her childhood friend. Ali finally took a deep breath.
“Actually, I’m just as good as you…!”
It explodes!
“Ah, it’s not fun.”
I grabbed Maya’s arm and pulled her towards me.
