A few more hours passed like that.

Perhaps it was worth moving without even eating breakfast, as I slowly began to see the familiar scenery of my hometown.

hometown… I can’t say that, but whatever.

Still, when I arrived at Jangyu, I felt something like a moving feeling.

I don’t know how I ended up staying in an officetel here, but whatever.

“It’s not important to know.”

I kept pedaling, looking for a suitable spot.

Unlike other cities, Jangyu was comfortable because the roads were not blocked.

Since these people were gathered around the apartment complex, the regular shopping malls were rather clean.

Of course, it didn’t seem clean at all.

Because there were still some rubble left here and there that had not been cleared away.

However, in the case of the zombie apocalypse, this was virtually as good as clean.

Fortunately, as we went a little further, we saw a large mart and a park nearby.

“… Hmm.”

The park… Uh, okay.

It looked like a scene from the turn of the century. It’s burned here and there, and there’s only one bench that’s in good condition.

There were ashes rolling around on the floor, so I didn’t want to eat here.

Probably, they had burned all the zombies here.

They must have been busy walking around, so gunshot marks were seen here and there.

Wait, gunshot?

I parked my bike and squatted down.

There was definitely something strange. There should not be gunshot marks in the funeral home.

There aren’t any military bases around here, so at best it’s probably just a pistol kept at the police station.

Now that I looked closely, I realized that there wasn’t just one gunshot mark.

Roads are roads, streetlights are streetlights.

There was even a gunshot mark on the wall of the building.

It didn’t seem like an intense gunfight took place.

If that were the case, there would have to be more gunshot wounds than this, and the surrounding area would have been devastated.

That said, it seemed like it was a limited use of firearms for the purpose of clearing.

“I guess I met Busan.”

Guns like this were only found in Busan.

Perhaps after I came here, the Jangyu faction and the Busan faction became connected in some way.

I didn’t know how the process went, but it didn’t matter.

You can go and ask later.

So I got back on the bike and pedaled slowly to increase speed.

I thought about going into an apartment complex if I didn’t know, but it didn’t seem necessary.

Most of the apartment complexes were empty.

It was clear that they had probably introduced the residents and gathered them in one place.

It is said that the Jangyu faction has a large population, but it has been divided up elsewhere.

Building 1, Building 2. Then, they would have herded the people from the three buildings into one place and set up a base nearby.

In that case, I thought I could go to Jangyu 1-dong.

At least there was a landmark there, and it seemed like I met Jeong Chang-seong nearby.

Because there was only one letter difference in the name of Professor Chang-seong Jeong and Professor Chang-hoon Jeong, and their faces were similar.

They probably mostly stay in the area where there are people.

Well, if that doesn’t work, I just have to ride my bike and go around again.

If you left at 5 a.m. and got here by bike around 1 p.m., you saved a lot of time.

I could see buildings 2 and 3 in less than an hour now.

“No, you idiot!”

It was in Building 3, not Building 1.

Since where I am now is in the 2-dong direction, I had to go to the outlet in the 3-dong direction.

Changseong Jeong said. He said he was the principal of Jangyu Middle School.

Then, I had to go to Jangyu Middle School, there was no need to go to an awkward place.

At the thought that I was almost wasting my time, I naturally became irritated.

“Ugh.”

This is why I felt like I needed a guide.

I’ve been walking around alone so far, but finding my way around still gave me a headache.

If Noh Chang-hoon or Kang Si-woo were here.

We have to go there! That’s exactly what I said.

Fortunately, my memory must have been correct, and as I decided on the direction to Jangyu Middle School, people started showing up.

But I couldn’t see very much. Just, what should I say?

It seemed like there were only a few people left to manage this area.

So, that, that. Hey. Just evacuating everyone and checking to see if anyone is inside.

Seeing as he wasn’t even checking whether I was coming or not, it seemed like he was just out of his mind.

I slowly entered Jangyu Middle School.

No, there were no guards. It was a really serious situation.

So, the moment I went to put my bike in the bike rack to say something, I heard something behind me.

“Yes, Yeji!”

“Kya!?”

“Oh, are you surprised?”

Seongtae Kang made an apologetic expression.

I loosened my grip on the handle of the baton and pressed my chest.

It’s a shame that I know he’s human. If my skin was green, I would have hit my head.

While I calmed down my shocked heart for a moment, Kang Seong-tae slowly put my bike in.

And he smiled and spoke as if he was happy to see me.

“I think I heard that you were visiting another survivor. Did things go well?”

“I think it worked out very well.”

“But it’s a bicycle, not a motorcycle? What happened to that motorcycle?”

“That’s how it happened. I didn’t lose it.”

“Ah… Well, if Yeji says so, then it must be so.”

“… ”

I felt ominous here.

No, that. What should I say? There were people like that in Busan too.

Whatever Yeji says is right… Do you feel the same way?

People who follow me blindly.

Fortunately, it was okay because Busan had an overwhelming top compatibility named Kang Si-woo.

Yeji is great, but Kang Siwoo is really great! I could have been buried with the same feeling.

Moreover, unlike me, he knew how to control the people who blindly followed him.

But the only people he could control were the people around him.

If this kind of opinion had come up on campus, it would have been well coordinated.

The problem is that this story came from Jangyu, which is far from the campus.

Of course, so far it has felt like simple respect.

Even though he clearly knew there was something he was hiding, it seemed like he didn’t want to ask out of consideration for me.

Well, then it was fortunate.

There was no need to worry any more, and since I was going to Busan anyway, I just had to leave it to Kang Si-woo.

If you tell him, he will take care of everything.

I thought I could find Jeong Chang-seong now and listen to the past story there.

Fortunately, Changseong Jeong said that he is currently spending time in the principal’s office.

“Almost all Jangyu residents moved. It’s almost time for us to go.”

Seongtae Kang explained.

So, after I arrived here, Jeong Chang-seong organized people and sent a patrol team to Busan.

After that, I think they joined the people at Seunghak Campus and devised and implemented an urgent relocation plan to Busan.

I thought it was too fast for something like that.

Even though I came back after a few weeks, that means they moved that many people in a matter of weeks.

No, I could understand.

Busan was currently experiencing an extreme labor shortage.

We have to protect the power plant and stop zombies coming from outside.

At the same time, we need to restore the damaged city and make food.

There is so much that needs to be done, and so few people who can do it.

In such a situation, it was clear that the tens of thousands of residents of Jangyu would be of great help.

“This week… How did you do it?”

“Ah, Yeji. that is… He brought a car. A military truck.”

“Ah.”

“We decided to send the children and the elderly there by riding them, and the adults decided to walk.

Since there were a lot of bicycles, people who knew how to ride used them to move around slowly.”

“The person complaining… I think there was.”

“Could it be there?”

Seongtae Kang chuckled.

Well, it couldn’t have happened. It would be safe to say that Busan is now the most successful city in the world.

Thanks to a lot of luck and remarkable sacrifices, South Korea had the best chance of making a comeback.

So, as long as you hold on somehow, you will be able to live your previous life again.

If you were an adult who could understand that, you would just walk.

Of course, it seemed uncomfortable.

It’s not like he’s a superhuman like me, and his physical abilities aren’t enhanced by killing zombies.

Even if you survive over time, you probably won’t be able to withstand the arduous march.

However, if you endure that level of inconvenience, survival is guaranteed.

There will be no one to complain.

“That’s a good thing. I was wondering what if something happened in the middle of it.”

“What were you going to do if it exploded?”

“Well, I have to go and take care of it myself.”

“Yeji is a really cool person. hero… It seems like a being.”

Seongtae Kang suddenly made an awkward sound.

But, knowing my true self, I could not accept such words with peace of mind.

Even though I’m rolling so hard, the disgust I had for myself from before hasn’t gone away.

Even if it is a huge situation where you have to live as a woman after living as a man for nearly 30 years.

I didn’t want to choose my old life.

And he wasn’t the type of person to be called a hero.

But I couldn’t say it, and even if I explained why, it was obvious that they wouldn’t listen.

So all I could do was laugh haha.

There were other people who could be called heroes elsewhere.

It was right that such a title should go to someone who deserves to be treated better than an asshole like me who is confused about gugudan.

What am I… Because you don’t have to receive any compensation.

I was satisfied with just a little word being spread about Ultimate Yeji Lee.

It was definitely something like self-brainwashing in the past, but I don’t know how it came to be like this.

“Ah, that was a long story. Sorry, Yeji.”

“It’s okay. It was a fun time.”

“The principal’s office is over there.”

“Yes, thank you.”

After saying hello to Seongtae Kang, I slowly walked to the principal’s office.
