Theatrical Regression Life - Chapter 110

Episode 110

The green algae monster infects people in some way. The moment a murderous intent is aroused and the target injures another person, the killing intent transfers.

When Jeong In-ho watched it, he remembered a zombie movie he had seen before. A monster infects a normal person and drives them crazy.

In his opinion, Jaeheon Lee was infected by a green algae monster.

‘Because he himself said so.’

Even though I couldn’t remember much, I was certain that something had happened to the green algae monster.

No matter how slow Director Lee Jae-heon’s judgment was, he would not have been confused about the extent, and in Jeong In-ho’s opinion, the symptoms he was seeing were consistent with the phenomena he had witnessed before returning to the past.

‘It seems like my cognitive ability is gradually declining.’

During a brief break in conversation after hearing Ha Seong-yoon’s story, Lee Jae-heon stared into space. Just like before, he didn’t come to his senses right away when called.

Moreover, Jaeheon Lee never said that he was ‘sick’ or ‘difficult’. He seemed obsessive, as if he shouldn’t have done that, and the only words he kept on his lips were ‘It’s okay’ and ‘It’s okay because he didn’t die.’

But isn’t that what you’re saying now?

“It appears to be in bad condition.”

“….”

“I’m sorry.”

…There was no need to add an afterword.

There may have been some twists in that, but in the end, it was like admitting that one had reached one’s limit. It was a far cry from the attitude that Director Lee Jae-heon had maintained so far.

That’s why I was anxious.

‘What if I go crazy like that?’

Before I returned to the past. Just like I did when drunk people went crazy and committed murder in the dark of night. No, how should I react if that happens? What should I do?

What can I do?

“There was so much blood, so how are you okay?”

“…Mina, I’m really fine.”

Jeong In-ho continued speaking while holding on to the pale Kang Min-ah’s shoulder.

“The manager fixed it.”

Yes, in the end, you did it too.

‘What if someone like that tries to kill us?’

The blood on Noh Yeon-seok’s shirt right now was embarrassingly small compared to yours.

He’s a crazy person who keeps passing things on to me and trying to disappear himself, but despite that, Director Lee Jae-heon has led us well so far. At least thanks to that, no one has died yet.

But what if you go even more crazy than you are now? If you let go of any sense of reason and act like the monster you used to be. What if we kill someone with that pipe that has been protecting us all this time?

Kill, kill, kill. Because I killed it.

“….”

“I don’t know how exactly.”

Should I kill Lee Jae-heon?

I?

“…Tsk.”

Jaeheon Lee clicked his tongue. Jeong In-ho felt the familiar irritation within him, and so he was able to breathe a sigh of relief right away.

I guess I can endure more.

“What should I tell you?”

“…If possible, please tell me everything.”

I won’t die right away.

“We also need to prepare.”

It was so funny that I just felt relieved about that.

In fact, you could die at any time.

* * *

I don’t want to survive alone.

Lee Jae-heon’s story has become quite long.

In fact, it couldn’t be short; it was a setting created only from Lee Jae-heon’s perspective, but the stories were the truth for them. I had to be careful about the information I revealed because if there wasn’t even the slightest probability, someone might say, ‘That doesn’t make sense.’

Jaeheon Lee has been to this world a few times in the past and now they are new colleagues. One of the few laws of the secret world. I was chased by a green algae monster, who I met, what happened, and what problems have arisen now.

In the end, it was telling that he was a ‘survivor of the underworld.’

“….”

“….”

There was silence for a long time.

“…Do you have any questions?”

When Jaeheon Lee asked, student Dayoung Park was the first to speak.

“Why why why… Then are you going to die? die?”

“I don’t think I’m going to die at all. “If someone dies, you will die, so take care of yourselves and avoid them.”

“Mister….”

“Oh, he won’t die. “Now I’m not dying from a disease, but you are now dying.”

However, Lee Jae-heon, who was unable to avoid the trembling hand of the approaching minor, had to be grabbed by the collar by student Park Da-young.

To be exact, it wasn’t a collar, but Lee Jae-heon felt it, and the thought of when he was going to raise all the chicks made him feel sick. But I can’t throw away the image now. There was no regret in throwing it away, but it was a problem because it was improbable.

“Man, you keep getting hurt… It’s just like that… It’s not okay.”

“Why not?”

“Don’t do that….”

Looking at it, Kwon Yeon-hee’s reaction was roughly the same, and I understood why the two started talking so quickly in the beginning. Although she did not act rudely like Kwon Yeon-hee, Park Da-young knew how to use the fact that she was a minor and Lee Jae-heon’s weakness in that area like a ghost.

He doesn’t cry, but he cries and clings to me. I’m even shaking.

‘If I drop this, I’m going to be called an asshole.’

I sighed and roughly patted his shoulder with one hand. As I was doing this, I remembered the time when I took my children into the ice cave, and I felt strange, but I was able to quickly shake off those feelings.

Ha Seong-yoon, who was looking at the two, asked.

“…Then that strange noise was also… a disease? Is it because of that?”

“…That sounds strange.”

“Why did you get dragged away by the green algae monster, then come back and faint… right after you woke up?”

He was touching my earlobe with one hand.

“It was a sound I heard for the first time in my life.”

“….”

“It feels like the muscles or internal organs are moving on their own… It’s slippery, a bit fluid, and dull. It’s like something is filling up the water…”

“…What does that mean?”

“If I knew that, I would just go out and write the paper.”

Jaeheon Lee thought quietly to himself as he added, ‘Anyway, it was the first time I’ve ever heard this from a patient.’

‘The water did physically rise.’

The cause and identity of lucid dreaming have not yet been discovered, but if we were to look at the results, it was true that Jaeheon Lee’s intestines were filled with water. I think the ‘sound of muscles or internal organs moving’ described before was probably a phenomenon that occurred because his recovery power increased exponentially.

And Jeong In-ho looked at Ha Seong-yoon’s words as if he were dumbfounded.

“…Why didn’t you tell us that?”

“I don’t know the cause… Isn’t there a situation where you can explain something like that? “The patient is vomiting blood.”

“That’s true, but no. The person who was listening to me suddenly raised his head, so I said, “The manager…” “

….”

“…No, no. That’s it.”

He looked a bit mortified.

“…Um… So even if we leave, will we come back here someday?”

Jaeheon Lee nodded to Kang Minah’s question.

“In my experience, that is highly likely.”

“The people who are here now… are they all together?”

“Yes.”

He thought that Kang Min-ah would be very saddened by what he said. Either fall into despair or be afraid. That was because the Kang Min-ah that Lee Jae-heon remembered was a very timid person.

But contrary to that expectation, she was calm.

“I see…”

“…?”

In fact, he seemed a little relieved.

‘…Where did the taste go?’

I know that Kang Min-ah’s ability to adapt was better than expected, but apart from that, she was a pretty simple person.

If CEO Yoon Garam is quietly crazy, Kang Minah is just a calm civilian. Although his limits were clear, he was quick to control himself and quite obsessively.

Although I felt a strong sense of responsibility, I decided that it was not enough to cause mental problems. Of course, since Lee Jae-heon himself is back, how trustworthy is this judgment?

“….”

“…But….”

Noh Yeon-seok asked with a puzzled expression.

“Is this just weird to me…?”

At those words, Jaeheon Lee glanced at Yeonseok Noh.

‘This chick sees my settings and says it’s strange?’

Honestly, I think there are a lot of confusing and strange settings, but how dare you do that? Recently, I’ve relieved him of a crisis situation a few times, and he said some nonsense to my face…

“You say you’ve been coming here since you were a child…! Since elementary school! Am I really the only one who jumped up and screamed? “I was really excited when I first heard this!”

“The words are harsh.”

“sorry.”

No, whatever.

I didn’t tackle the settings.

‘The chick’s sense of ethics was the problem.’

Lee Jae-heon looked at Noh Yeon-seok with a much more at ease mind. Even while going in and out of the cold and hot baths, his expression remained consistent, at least in Lee Jae-heon’s mind.

Doctor Ha Seong-yoon responded to Noh Yeon-seok’s heartfelt cry.

“That is correct. Moreover, sir, even if there are no externally visible injuries, I don’t think it is a good idea to treat someone else’s pain.”

“Well then. If you had seen it, you would have known, but the youngest member of our department almost died. There is a way to save someone’s life, but does it make sense to avoid it just because it won’t hurt a little? “I almost lost one of our manpower.”

“Why don’t you know that even if you say that, since you are a teacher… the only thing that comes out is to tell you to please do something about it?”

Ha Seong-yoon, with a sad smile, looked back at Noh Yeon-seok and said.

“Of course, I am by no means blaming Mr. Noh Yeon-seok. “I was fortunate that the manager had the ability to help Yeon-seok, and I’m very fortunate to see him alive.”

“Oh…”

“I was very worried because you suddenly disappeared.”

After hesitating for a moment, he slowly nodded. In the end, Lee Jae-heon couldn’t help but sigh as his face was full of guilt, saying, ‘Manager Lee Jae-heon is having a harder time because of me.’

“Yeah, it’s not because of you. “Please straighten your face.”

“….”

“…Well, not everything I say will work, but….”

I thought it would be better to set another date on this matter someday.

‘At this point, it’s time to change my way of thinking.’

Lee Jae-heon thought that after a certain amount of time, he would be able to correct the chicks’ soft common sense.

However, the fact that he was overlooking even now was that this world was on a different level from the place where his ‘common sense’ was created.

In the world of my previous life, that was common sense to everyone. A world that places no value on suffering and despises life. But in today’s world, Jaeheon Lee was the only one who had such common sense. This meant that others did not feel the need to change their common sense.

Rather, for them, the person who needed to be corrected was Lee Jae-heon.

“How could you possibly blame me, a doctor, for saving someone’s life? “It’s a bad attitude to look down on yourself.”

“I never looked down on it.”

“If you did half of what you do for us, you would be much better off.”

Lee Jae-heon was dumbfounded by those words.

“Are you and me the same?”

“…What do you mean?”

Even though Doctor Ha Seong-yoon’s voice suddenly lowered, Lee Jae-heon did not notice it and continued speaking.

To be honest, I don’t know how I can be on the same level as these chicks.

Moreover, Lee Jae-heon himself said,

“Well, even if I die…”

“….”

“….”

Ah.

“…Ah….”

I made a fucking mistake.

Once you die, it’s over.
