Seeing things like this, he seemed very timid.

I tried to look at it roughly as long as I didn’t put my hand in a difficult place.

He said he was talking in his sleep and tried to get over it by slightly raising his leg, but whatever.

On the contrary, I was able to rest comfortably, so it didn’t matter.

Anyway, several hours passed, and only after the sun rose in the sky did Noh Chang-Hoon wake up.

“Are you awake?”

I said looking at him.

Noh Chang-hoon blinked for a moment and then sighed.

Then he reached out his hand and fumbled around, and it looked like he was looking for a water bottle.

So I threw the water bottle at him, and he caught it cleverly and drank the water.

He drank like that for a while, then threw the empty water bottle onto a nearby sofa.

Then he stood up, washed his face, and straightened his bedding.

I watched him straighten the bedding for a moment, then slowly stood up.

After arranging the bedding, Noh Chang-hoon grumbled briefly at me.

“I don’t want to work… Ugh. Let’s take a shower and go eat.”

“Good.”

“Yes, it would be nice for you to eat.”

“What, you idiot?”

“Just kidding, kidding.”

I opened my eyes and glared at Noh Chang-hoon.

It was obvious that I would be the one making the most mistakes from now on, but I didn’t want to hear things like that.

Even though I came back to campus after a long time, I feel like I won’t be able to meet other people and go to work.

Fortunately, Noh Chang-hoon also seemed to know that and didn’t say anything.

Instead, while I was lightly washing my face and washing my hair, he gave me words of encouragement.

So I felt very strange.

All this time, Noh Chang-hoon and I were bickering like bad friends.

Naturally, we never shared words of encouragement like this with each other.

At best, it was just a few formal words.

But after hearing such proper words of encouragement… It felt really strange.

In the end, I couldn’t stand the awkwardness and grumbled.

“Take it in moderation, because it feels weird.”

“Huh. Even if you praise me, it’s shit.”

“You and I are always fighting, so complimenting feels awkward.”

“Then, should I curse at you? I won’t hate that again.”

“Of course.”

I answered, wiping my hair with a towel.

But maybe it was the first time in a while that I washed my hair properly, but it didn’t go well.

Eventually, I gave up on wiping.

My hair was so long that brushing it was a chore.

So I was just taking a bite, but Noh Chang-hoon’s gaze stung.

“Why are you looking at me?”

“Is it okay to dry your hair like that in this weather? Give me the towel.”

“Huh? I guess so.”

“That’s not true, you idiot. I can’t even watch you wash your hair while wearing a headset.”

“… My, did I do that?”

“That’s right.”

Noh Chang-hoon grumbled for a moment, then started wiping my hair.

He seemed quite familiar, having done this many times before.

I was dazed for a moment, then remembered that I had done this often before.

It seemed like he entrusted his hair to Noh Chang-hoon every time he was bothered, but perhaps that was why his skills were quite good.

He cleaned my hair thoroughly for a while, and after a few more minutes he stopped.

So I tried to go eat, but he stopped me and said it wasn’t over yet.

When I asked why he was holding me back, he took out a comb.

That was ridiculous, so I grumbled briefly.

“A, Mr. Why do men brush their combs?”

“Are you a man?”

“Ah, fuck. Let’s roughly say so.”

“Okay, just sit for a while. If you go without brushing your hair, everyone will look at you strangely.”

“I think I often did that.”

I grumbled that I know I’m your wife anyway, so who cares? but he remained silent.

In the end, I gave up, sat down, and gave him my head.

And while Noh Chang-hoon was combing my hair, he started talking about work.

It’s not like he brushed my hair to talk about work, but it seemed like he just brought it up while doing it.

“Yeji, you need to go to Gijang-gun.”

“Really?”

“Yes. First, you can scout around Gijang-eup first, then go up to Gijang-gun and then come back.”

“Are you going with someone else?”

“I also want to get someone to join me, but I can’t.”

“Why?”

“That’s it… Because there are many places to send people.”

Noh Chang-hoon slowly began to explain.

The content was nothing special. Roughly speaking, there is something in one area and this in that area.

In order to use it properly, you need to protect it, rescue nearby survivors, and establish a base.

He said that there was a lot to do in cooperation with the military and survivor groups in various places, so there was a shortage of manpower.

They say it’s almost a miracle that they even have the military power to send to Gijang-gun.

“In the end, you’re telling me to roll over.”

“… ”

“Heng, it doesn’t matter. Have I ever almost died?”

“It did exist.”

“You’re alive. And I am stronger than then.”

“… I’m dizzy.”

“Why am I dizzy?”

Noh Chang-hoon frowned.

I knew why he did that.

Because I was the only person in reality that Noh Chang-hoon opened his heart to.

It was different from Kang Si-woo. Kang Si-woo is a character created by Noh Chang-hoon.

In this world, I was the only one who was going to go to the end with Noh Chang-hoon.

Now that I had established my relationship with him, I could understand his hesitation.

If I make a mistake and die…

You’re probably going to be quite shocked, so I understand.

But I had no intention of dying.

Since ancient times, we have moved to live, and we still move to live.

And since I will continue to move to survive, you can trust me now.

I thought he was really young too, so I laughed in a very sad way.

“Anyway, I told you to trust me and leave it to me. You can think of it as taking a break and then going on a trip.”

“I feel a little comforted when you say that.”

“Then… How much supplies will you give?”

“… ”

“, don’t you give us a lot of supplies? They just want to eat the bones.”

“As I said before, supplies also have to be sent elsewhere.”

“Still, Gijang-eup? I think there might be some supplies left there. That Moss thing… ”

I frowned, trying to remember the information in my head.

A spider’s web was great for storing food.

On the other hand, moss probably keeps things from rusting or rotting.

So, it seemed like it would be easy to get things.

As for groceries… I was worried.

It’s not like there’s a spider.

It would be strange to see food still intact.

Still, I didn’t think I needed to worry too much.

“You said there were lots of plants there.”

“Right?”

“Then there will be fruits and such, right?”

“… It’s probably as open as an orchard.”

“Okay, then I won’t have to worry about food.”

“Of course, I’m not sure. When we run out of supplies, we return right away.”

“Okay, I understand.”

“You can get away on a bike in a few hours.”

“Okay, if anything happens, I’ll run away.”

I said that and smiled.

Of course, I had no intention of running away when I heard those words.

Since I have already taken on a task, I must finish it successfully.

I handled the count by myself anyway, but I didn’t think the other zombies could do anything to me.

So, I was planning to scout properly and come back.

Where can I get drinking water?

Where can you get things that can be used as food?

It would be good to establish a base here.

Well, I was planning to record all of those things and make a map.

I felt like that would make Noh Chang-hoon feel at least a little more comfortable, so I had no choice.

Obviously, after the reconnaissance is over, we will have to gather people and advance to Gijang-gun.

But if I neglect reconnaissance, then there will be a lot of trouble.

So I made up my mind.

Unless I’m in a situation where I really feel like I’m going to die, I won’t come back until I get results.

Of course, I didn’t say that.

If I said that now, it was clear that Noh Chang-hoon would break my head with a comb.

So I didn’t say anything and just enjoyed Noh Chang-hoon’s brushing.

Well, I don’t know how I got so good at brushing my hair…

He was better at brushing his hair than I thought. Thanks to this, I woke up from half-asleep again and again.

After finishing combing, Noh Chang-hoon put the comb in my pocket.

I tried to refuse, saying I didn’t need this, but it was no use.

They tell me to take it with me and comb my hair, so what can I say?

In the end, I put my precious comb in my pocket.

After that, I walked to the restaurant with Noh Chang-hoon.

The restaurant… It felt like it had been a long time coming.

No, it was true that it had been a long time since I came.

Because there were many places to go during that time.

Above all, it wasn’t that I didn’t have time to be on campus…

Because every time that happened, I ate somewhere else.

Thanks to this, I was able to eat at a restaurant for the first time in a long time.

Noh Chang-hoon must have been very familiar with this, so he just calmly ate next to the people.

On the other hand, I was awkward and noticed.

It seemed like it had been quite a while since I ate while greeting people.

Because in the meantime, I ate alone or in places without acquaintances.

Well, I thought that could happen.

So, as I was eating, I saw a lot of familiar faces.

“Kim Yeon-hwa! Ahyoung Lee! Are you having lunch?”

“Ah, sister! It’s been a while.”

“Yeah, it’s been a really long time.”

I laughed while looking at Kim Yeon-hwa and Lee A-young.

It was a very welcoming face, so I couldn’t control my emotions.

Those two, I couldn’t meet them because my back hurt every time I looked for them.

So I couldn’t help but be even happier.
