ORV: The Anomaly Among Stars. (Lee Jihye X OP Male Reader)

16:Line of Hypocrisy(3)

Despite the interference of Cheon Inho, the constellations didn’t ask for a bounty scenario. In other words, it wasn’t the best time to deal with him.

For around half a day, They focused on grasping the situation of Gumho Station. It was Lee Hyunsung who mainly gave information.

Hyunsung: “Currently, there are 86 people in Gumho Station. Ah, I guess it is 89 people now with Dokja-ssi and Y/N-ssi including Kiara."

Dokja: “It is less than I thought.”

Hyunsung: “Yes. When the scenario broke out, only those near the station and those on the train survived. Everyone didn’t say it, but perhaps in the first scenario...”

They didn’t need to be told the next words. They could see it from the expressions of the people. Those who survived had trampled on someone’s life. All the humans here were murderers.

Hyunsung: “Currently, Gumho Station is divided into two groups. Strictly speaking, it is one group and the rest.”

Lee Hyunsung looked at the people with a dark expression. There were men armed with iron pipes or other instruments. It was clear which group was the faction in power.

Myungoh: “Believe in me! The group president is working hard and everyone will soon be rescued.”

The youngest son of Hankyung Group, Han Myungoh.

“Hyung-nim is right, everyone. Don’t lose hope. We will be able to lead.”

The one who embraced Han Myungoh and practically led the group was Cheon Inho. They were the ‘mainstream group.’

Random Child: “Mother, I’m bored...can’t I play a game on the phone?”

Random Mother: “Hold on for a moment. The rescue team will come soon.”

Random Male: “The government will act. It isn’t that easy to collapse a country.”

The people who were protected by the mainstream group and wanted to get on with their lives were the ‘marginalized group.’

Their will was too weak to be killers. Even if 100 murderers were gathered together, they would be divided between the weak and the strong. Maybe they were thinking that they weren’t murderers. They all believed it was unavoidable.

Lee Hyunsung watched the mainstream group inciting the people and said.

Hyunsung: “Food distribution is determined by the mainstream group. Convenience stores and restaurants in the region have already been robbed...the foods that can be eaten right now are almost gone.”

Y/N: “I see." I already know this though....

Hyunsung: “It is the reason why some people from the mainstream group were sent above ground for food exploration. Heewon-ssi, who you brought in, went with them”

Dokja: “Heewon-ssi...?”

Hyunsung: “Ah, it is the name of the woman who Dokja-ssi saved.”

Dokja looked at the woman who lay on the subway bench. Under the bright light, her beauty could be seen. Her raised cheeks and gentle features meant she must’ve often heard she was attractive. Thanks to the monkey’s lungs, her colour was much brighter than it was this morning.
