Theatrical Regression Life Chapter 575

Episode 575

“Then all that’s left is….”

As Yoon Garam started, Choi Minhong raised his hand.

“It’s me!”

“Oh, right. “Should we take a look at Minhong’s map?”

“Here it is!”

Jaeheon Lee intervened while looking at Minhong Choi flapping his map.

“Minhong.”

“…Here you are!”

“yes.”

The survivors looked at Choi Min-hong, who was corrected, and Lee Jae-heon, who made the correction, with warm eyes. Park Min-jun was secretly embarrassed by the strange phenomenon of his boss being given warm looks, but fortunately, no one noticed. This was thanks to Park Min-jun skillfully hiding his true colors.

Of course, the man inside Lee Jae-heon was only aware of it.

‘Do you want to die?’

Park Min-jun blinked.

‘Isn’t that a threat in this world?’

‘It’s a threat.’

‘Help me.’

‘Do well.’

Park Min-jun, who was already doing well, swallowed his sadness. Since I didn’t know if I would be able to return to my original world, I had to settle down well in this world, but the boss I settled in before me was very rough.

Park Min-jun sneaked out, thinking that he must have done this because he was caught gossiping behind his back in his past life.

“Hey… can I take a look too?”

“Ah, are you Minjun?”

“On my way here, I heard that it felt similar to solving a puzzle, and that’s because I like that. “I was wondering if it was a puzzle I knew…” When

Park Min-jun, who is a bit shy but still exudes a unique friendliness toward survivors who are not yet close to him, opened his mouth, the survivors just nodded.

“We don’t really know, but we would be grateful if you could think about it together.”

“Oh, thank you. Then…”

Park Min-jun examined it under Choi Min-hong’s guidance.

“….”

29 circles within the circle-shaped area that stamps the ‘Sea Treasure Museum’ theme zone.

‘Mrs.’

Why didn’t you tell me about this gimmick before sending it to me?

‘You’re probably just enjoying my suffering. ‘It’s obvious.’

Park Min-jun humbly acknowledged his fate of being criticized by his boss and his wife.

I’m sure I’ll be rolling around quite a bit here too. However, I accept it. Compared to my previous life, it was obvious that I would be as comfortable as lying down in my own home.

But that didn’t mean Park Min-jun, who was a bit smart, couldn’t figure out anything.

‘Circles of exactly the same size and color. The drawn shape is random. First of all, since there is nothing to symbolize the order, the location of the winning box among these 29 circles is not indicated.’

If so, you can think of another method.

“There may be another linked hint outside the map, or there may be someone else who can see the hint on the map, or there may be a hint that can only be confirmed by going right in front of the treasure chest… I think it’s one of three things.”

I expected that it would probably not be the first case.

‘I also checked out the inside of the aquarium when I came, but I never saw anything that could be related to this. There were no features that were regular enough to be considered hints or problems.’

In this case, it could be considered the second or third case.

“And in the second case, the owner of this map is Minhong’s friend…”

“Because this aquarium is particularly kind to children.”

“yes that’s right. “I think it would be good if Minhong took a look.”

However, there was a fairly high probability that this was not the case either.

‘If Choi Min-hong had a characteristic that he could see, he would have talked about it first. That’s why Minhong Choi has a strong will to actively help adults and is very interested in strategy. I’m especially anxious to get the captain’s attention… If I had found a legitimate reason to intervene between adults, I wouldn’t have said it sooner.’

Of course, it could not have been true. Although he observed them alongside his wife, Park Min-jun does not know much about these survivors. Therefore, we cannot be sure of the extent of Choi Min-hong’s judgment.

However, as expected, it failed to elicit a meaningful response from Choi Min-hong.

“You don’t see anything else?”

“…I don’t have one.”

“okay? “Do they all look like the same circle?”

“huh. “No, yes.”

“Hmm… Is this the part where you put a stamp here in the Sea Treasure Hall?”

“Is that so?”

Then again, the third case.

“If you haven’t seen Minhong, it would be better to take a map and go there yourself.”

I could think of a case where a hint would only be revealed if certain conditions were met.

“It could be that you really have to go near the treasure chest or go into the water, or something like that before a hint appears on the map.”

“For now, I can’t help but think that way…”

Seo Jang-hwa nodded at Park Min-jun’s words and looked back at the survivors.

“Therefore, we are recruiting parties. Those who want to play the treasure chest raid, gather together. “An opportunity like this doesn’t come often.”

Han Do-yoon’s eyes sparkled.

“I can’t miss out on a party like this. “I am participating, party leader.”

“This crazy… does this look like a feast to you?”

“Fragile Ki-jeong is here. “Doyun will come back.”

“Even if you didn’t say that, I wasn’t planning on going.”

Although he said it in a cool way, I could see a fierce conflict brewing in Kim Ki-jeong’s eyes. Kim Ki-jeong, who was thinking hard, saying, ‘I really shouldn’t send this,’ cleared his throat once and continued speaking, as if he hadn’t worried at all.

“…But since I’m the type of person who can hear well, I’ll go with you.”

“Ah, Mr. Kijeong. “You didn’t want to send me alone?”

“Please don’t be so gross… stop before you regret what you just said.”

“Yes, I’m sorry.”

When Do-yoon Han and Ki-jeong Kim expressed their intention, Eun-woo Jeong spoke as if he had been waiting.

“I’m the only one who can open the treasure chest, so of course I have to participate.”

“Then you weren’t going to go?”

“It can’t be. “I was just upset that you didn’t mention me, so I tried to talk to you.”

“Ah, you look really happy…”

Seo Jang-hwa continued, muttering as if the lively Jeong Eun-woo felt awkward.

“Anyway, since I’m the one who spoke, I’m going too. “I’m also good at swimming.”

Having said that, Lee Jae-heon, Jeong In-ho, and Park Min-jun were able to vaguely guess Seo Jang-hwa’s intention in participating.

‘I guess they don’t want to send Eunwoo Jeong alone.’

‘It seems like he’s quite worried that that person might do something stupid.’

‘Are you worried that Jung Eun-woo will die if you send him away?’

Seo Jang-hwa did not remember what happened before his return, but apart from that, he was originally opposed to Jeong Eun-woo taking charge of everything alone. Moreover, after the Jung In-ho hugging incident, Jung Eun-woo felt like a real person, so the concerns seemed to have grown even more.

Among them, Lee Jae-heon and Park Min-jun’s eyes met.

“….”

“….”

The subordinate skillfully caught the unspoken command.

“Can I go with you?”

“Oh, are you okay?”

“As I said before, I’m pretty good at solving puzzles… so it might be helpful when we go together. And I am confident in how I use my body.”

“That’s…”

Obviously, everyone on the wetsuit team knew about Park Min-jun’s physical abilities.

‘It sure looked that way.’

Garam Yoon, who was worried about Minjun Park’s participation, thought so inwardly.

It was my first time seeing him and he didn’t make a strong impression, so I was worried at first, ‘What will I do if I leave like this?’ But those concerns were for naught, and Park Min-jun skilfully navigated the aquarium. Even when he got his feet ripped off in ‘Friends by the Stream’, he was quite courageous.

‘Well, he was a person who traveled alone in the underworld, so maybe I was worried for no reason.’

My heart was strong enough to come to this large aquarium alone to find a friend. I didn’t know that Garam Yoon had anything to worry about.

“…Then I will go with you.”

When even Yoon Garam raised his hand out of a sense of responsibility as a returnee, Seo Janghwa opened his mouth.

“It ends here. “If the number of people increases more than this, it becomes more of a hassle.”

“It still seems like there are a lot of people…”

As Kim Ki-jeong grumbled out of habit, Seo Jang-hwa clicked his tongue.

“If that’s the case, you’ll be left out.”

“…Is there anyone here who can hear better than me?”

“Are you brazenly competing with your abilities?”

“I’m saying this is fair and square.”

The Treasure Box team was newly formed with Seo Jang-hwa, Han Do-yoon, Kim Ki-jeong, Jeong Eun-woo, Park Min-joon, and Yoon Gar-ram.

“After all, isn’t there too much?”

However, Kim Ki-jeong’s opinion was ignored.

Jeong Eun-woo was originally essential to the treasure chest team, Seo Jang-hwa found Jeong Eun-woo untrustworthy, Do-yoon Han wanted to help Seo Jang-hwa, and Kim Ki-jeong found Han Do-yoon untrustworthy.

As a sister product, all these survivors are worried, including one possessed person and one returner. It was a structure that was difficult for anyone to escape from.

“I think it will be okay because there were no monsters that stood out when I arrived, but…”

Ha Seong-yoon opened his mouth as he looked at the treasure chest team.

“If something goes wrong with Eunwoo Jeong’s ring or you are unsure when opening the treasure chest, please come back to the concert hall. “It would be a disaster if we move hastily and end up creating a monster.”

“Yes, of course.”

Ha Seong-yoon and Yoon Gar-ram, who had tasted the horror of the monster Jeong Eun-woo in the previous episode, looked at each other and nodded. I’m not sure if the reason why Jung Eun-woo became a monster last time was because of the ring or the box, but there was no harm in being careful.

Immediately after the treasure box team left, a strange silence fell among the remaining people.

“…So…”

Now that most of the survivors were gone, they had a story to share.

“What are you going to do with Song In-myeong?”

In response to Jeong In-ho’s question, Ha Seong-yoon sighed deeply.

“Why not just kill him?”

“Isn’t it too easy for a doctor to say that he will kill?”

“Doctors also do some sorting of waste.”

“Oh, I’m treating you like trash, not a living thing… I understand.”

Dayoung Park, who was listening to the two adults talking, intervened.

“Even if you kill them anyway, isn’t the real mannequin still left?”

The reason why Song In-myeong was not dealt with so far was partly due to a matter of conscience, but it was also a result of concern about the real-life mannequin going crazy. In that case, I decided that it would be best to persuade him and control him both in the hidden world and in reality.

In response to Park Da-young’s question, Jeong In-ho waved his hand.

“Even so, if you are too much of a nuisance in the behind-the-scenes world, it will be detrimental.”

“But we can still go back…”

“But that doesn’t mean it’s not stressful.”

Ha Seong-yoon said.

“In the other world, mental stress takes a big toll. As you know, in that case, if you are unlucky, the attack may be delayed for a long time.”

For Jeong In-ho and Ha Seong-yoon, who directly remember the last episode, Song In-myeong was clearly a cancerous lump. No, it may be a little more useful than cancer, but if you look at it that way, it is no different from radiation.

And Lee Jae-heon was subtly embarrassed by the strangely changing public opinion.

“….”

…But there’s nothing wrong with killing them, right…?

‘He was useful in some way?’

You can’t just throw away your talent like that.

Honestly, from the detective’s perspective, Song In-myeong was a ‘bad cop’ who could have been used instead of me. While I was taking care of my image as a good police officer, it would have been perfect to have Song In-myeong take action against the criticism.

For example, when the strategy is slow, let all the survivors die.

‘Isn’t this regression effectively faster thanks to that in the first place?’

Of course, the man knew that if he said this, he would be cursed and sink, so he swallowed his words.

“If that’s the case, cutting off the leg would be…”

“Then, I don’t know what they’ll do later when they return to reality and hold a grudge against us.”

“That’s right, I don’t think there will be any return in reality.”

“Then the only way is to kill them, right?”

“I don’t think it’s bad.”

“Oh, it’s a bit uncomfortable…”

“But it was worth dying for.”

“That’s true, though.”

The detective was listening to the returnees’ conversation with an ambiguous feeling.

“….”

How should I convince you of this?

‘It’s still usable.’

The man felt like an antique store owner and was deeply worried.

‘But the anger of the returnees is too strong.’

The only way to calm their angry public sentiment was to have Song In-myeong paraded or Song In-myeong execution ceremony. Either way, it was bad news for Lee Jae-heon, who had been gently coaxing and patronizing Song In-myeong.

That’s the conclusion.

“…Why did you kill Song In-myeong?”

Let’s act crazy.

“That guy is a good guy. He helped me a lot…”

“… Manager?”

“Aren’t you more useful than me?”

Song In-myeong was going to get the curse anyway.
