#Urgent (2)

「Public office: I came to this channel through the portal website… something is strange…」

「Public office: From the beginning of the broadcast to the present, I have selected and synchronized major sections with Digest, but no matter how hard I look at them, there is no sex scene. Am I weird? Guys, what do you think?」

「Large Pizza: I think so too. Even if you put them in order of satisfaction, they are all for teenagers.」

「Smigol: Hey, who doesn’t have sex in the post-insurance?」

「Appgirl: Damn. So there are no sex scenes? That’s my taste. I think he’s good at acting and creates a situation where he can be immersed, unlike other hosts. I can’t wait to see it. ^_^」

「SweetMoca: Yeah. He seems nice, but he’s not always like that. How should I say this? Half adult? Anyway, he seems to be a double charm. I think he’s going to taste like two things ♡.」

[SweetMoca gave 30 stars]

「Paralympic: Let’s ask the people who were watching before. Anyone, come out.」

「Hurricane224: Welcome, Newbies. The new stupidities are always welcome!」

「Paralympic: Something strange has come up. How much of it have you seen?」

「Hurricane224: I’ve seen it from the beginning. Call me senior.」

「Paralympic: Stupid. Can’t you see my nickname? Do you want to do the Paralympics all night with me?」

「Public office: That’s it.」

「Large Pizza: Hurricane224. If you see the log, you will know what we want. Go ahead and reveal your happy time favorites. If you’ve seen it from the beginning, you’ll know the location, right?」

「Hurricane224: There’s no such thing.」

「Large Pizza: Don’t tell me… You’re kidding, aren’t you?」

「SweetMoca: Really?」

「Hurricane224: No, there isn’t.」

「Hurricane224: Everyone here, don’t hope for it.」

「Jessica Regular: Believe it or not, it is true. I’ve seen it from the beginning. I don’t think the host will play the game. Even if you suggest thousands of stars, he rejects it.」

「Deepdog: Okay. Everyone’s just giving up and watching. Anyway, it’s fun.」

[Deepdog gave 50 stars as a gift]

「20retired: Is that so…」

「20retired: Well. I never imagined that an [after the end] worldview could flow this way. I thought it was not the game I’d played, so I checked the title again.」

「Public officer: It turned out that the place where I came in to eat instant ramen was a Korean restaurant.」

「Hardgay: That’s a metaphor. LOL.」

「Smigol: Did I watch the last episode too roughly? I’m not sure what’s good yet.」

「SALHAE: It’s better not to know.」

「Smigol: ?」

「SALHAE: Let me give a piece of advice to the newcomers. Don’t watch this broadcast.」

「Appgirl: Huh? Why?」

「SALHAE: It will appear in your dreams.」

「Appgirl: …What do you mean? Lol. 」

「Paralympic: Who the hell is this? So many men who threaten my fame.」

「SALHAE: I’m not kidding. I’m saying this for you.」

「20retired: What the hell are you talking about? I don’t know what’s going on.」

「SALHAE: This show is far too realistic. Each virtual personality feels like a living person. When I’m synchronizing with the moderator, I always feel like I’m disappearing.」

「SALHAE: The problem is that I want it. I want to be Gyeo-ul, take care of people, and be loved by them…」

「SALHAE: Then I feel awful when it’s time to disconnect. I don’t want to go back to reality. I don’t want to be someone else. I’m just a surplus human. Life doesn’t seem to be…」

「SALHAE: Fuckfuckfuck….」

「Paralympic: What is it? Isn’t that normal game addiction after all? Stupid, lol. 」

「Strike: Do I hear something? I can hear it. A burst of inferiority complex.」

「Nitrogenpackage: You think all people are like you? That’s why you’re a part-timer. You’re a loser who escapes to virtual reality without any willingness or effort to change reality. Anyway, since the welfare of the country is good, everyone has become lazy. If you don’t like a chicken coop, you should try to get out of there. 」

「Director Kim: Unsecured credit loan consultation. 0100-8282-****」

「SALHAE: Yeah. Say whatever you want, you bastards.」

「Paralympic: Yes, I reported you. 」

「まつみん: Everyone calm down. By the way, what’s the loan consultation? Don’t laugh at other people’s worries! Whatever it is, if a person says he or she is sick, we should ask them if they are okay!」

「1BillionLoan: Whoa. Calm down, everyone.」

「1BillionLoan: I kind of understand what he’s saying.」

「1Billion Loan: I never felt it before I subscribed to this channel, but I thought “sensory sync” might be a bit dangerous. SALHAE is not weird.」

「RageGrape: I agree. It’s not like that, but I feel uncomfortable.」

「Mustafa: No wonder SALHAE doesn’t talk about sex these days. LOL.]

「groseillier noir: hmm. The Korean media have been strangely critical of Korean post-insurance until now. I thought it was a waste of money because it was just an economic loss. But looking at you guys, I can vaguely see why you’re criticizing it. I can’t explain it well yet.」

「groseillier noir: I still like post-insurance. :)」

[groseillier noir gave 172.25 stars]

「Владимир: Yes. Korea’s post-insurance is an artificial paradise created by science and capital. It would have been better without Active X. They decided that it must be introduced to Russia. Except for Active X.」

「BigBuffetBoy86: Oh, Rusky. You’re constantly on this channel. Have you improved your game skills?」

「 Владимир: Not at all. Rather, they seem to have regressed. I don’t understand at all. I played Skirmish a while ago, and even though there was a Korean player on our side, I lost the match. How come?」

「BigBuffetBoy86: It’s simple. There must have been two Korean players on the other side.」

「Владимир: ……!」

「Motsiel: Realization. LOL. What’s this stupid conversation? Lol 」

「まつみん: Russian uncle wwwwwwww 」

「Владимир: I think I made a mistake. I’ve disciplined my subordinates for casting Koreans…」

「BigBuffetBoy86: Why, did you throw him to the bottom of the Baltic again?」

「Владимир: No, she is the daughter of Russia. I can’t waste it so meaninglessly. I just put her on a rather difficult mission. Maybe she won’t be able to come back alive.」

「BigBuffetBoy86: Your jokes are always funny. :D」

「 Владимир: I’m not kidding.」

< <SYSTEM MESSAGE>>: A viewer quest has been granted by SALHAE.>>

「Viewer quest: I asked you one time.」

「SALHAE said: Honestly, don’t you think Lee Yura is a good girl? She’s nice, innocent, and responsible. I don’t need Ai-ling. You don’t have to fuck, so make it a bit sweet. It’s because my life is tough. Let’s just get some consolation.」

「AI Help: The goal of this quest is to have a relationship with Lee Yura by user registration number B-612. At the point of achieving the goal, 1,000 stars will be given to the worldview moderator.」

<<SYSTEM MESSAGE>>: Han Gyeo-ul (host) has rejected SALHAE’s viewer quest.

「SALHAE: Whew. It didn’t work.」

「Jessica Regular: lol. SALHAE, didn’t you give up already?」

「SALHAE: It’s not sex, so I thought it would work. But he just doesn’t want to be interfered with. Just take a good look. You should have shared a little with me…」

「Don’tPlayWithNick: Well, this is what hyperreality is.」

「SALHAE: What’s that? 」

「Don’tPlayWithNick: SALHAE. Find and read Gilles Deleuze’s book when you have time. Something about simulacra. I think it will help you see your condition objectively.」

「SALHAE: Gilles Deleuze? I don’t know who that is, but I don’t have time to read books or anything. I don’t have enough time to watch the show. Living these days is very tough. I’m living every day by watching this show.」

「Don’tPlayWithNick: You are living a poor life, too.」

「Snowfox: …….」

#lake night, Fort Roberts (1)

The old typhoon eventually receded, and a new typhoon came to take its place. Fort Roberts became as dark as the weather. People looked like dark clouds, worrying about many things.

Rising rivers, neglected construction sites, increased air transportation and reduced distribution, etc. People hoped that the bad times would end as soon as possible. However, bad weather was expected to continue for the time being. The National Typhoon Center explained that this was the effect of extreme El Nino.

Among them, there was something small that was attracting people’s attention.

“Huh? Is this really usable?” Yura asked Gyeo-ul with her eyes wide open. Gyeo-ul merely nodded.

“Yes, this is a military smartphone. It’s still locked, but you can use it as your phone for now. Don’t forget your login password, and make sure you read the manual.”

Only four people had received smartphones from Gyeo-ul: two managers and two combat team leaders. Others had given them very envious looks. Gyeo-ul thought it would be nice to have a few more, but he couldn’t help it. Originally it was intended Gyeo-ul would only give them to the supply community.

In fact, military smartphones were not common among U.S. soldiers. Now that the manufacturer was gone, there was also a problem with supply. They wouldn’t have been greedy if it weren’t for Gyeo-ul’s influence.

Jang Yeon-chul, who was looking at the terminal, was surprised.

“I thought it was a familiar design, and when I looked closely, it was made in Korea!”

“Wow, that’s true! The case was thick, so I didn’t recognize it! Oh my God!”

Yura held her phone in her hands with tears in her eyes. Min Wan-ki and Park Jin-seok were also interested. Despite the fact that most of the functions were blocked, they were happy to text each other. It was a nostalgic object in many ways; existing smartphones had been out of order for a long time.

Yura, who couldn’t control her excitement, then asked Gyeo-ul, “Can I call the captain?”

“Do it.”

The boy smiled as Yura pressed the shortcut. The ringtone then sounded after a slight time difference. This would be a face-to-face call. The envious people clapped and laughed this time. Yura’s face turned red, wondering if she ought to feel ashamed. However, she was firm. Gyeo-ul thought he’d check and cut her off, but she had on a serious face. Why?

‘Is she trying to make a fool of herself?’

It would be nice if she could get rid of people’s anxiety for a while. Gyeo-ul pretended to answer the phone. “Hello?”

“Hello! My name is Lee Yura! Is Captain Han Gyeo-ul there?”

“Yes, it’s me. What are you calling for?”

The laughter around them was getting louder.

Yura shouted, “I really want to say thank you!”

“You don’t have to thank me, all I gave you today was supplies.”

“Still! Thanks for everything else as well as this! Thank you!”

“Don’t mention it. Thank you, everyone.”

This was the first commemorative call. After their comedic performance, Gyeo-ul called her back.

“Chief Park’s cell phone has more functions than the managers’. They’re mostly useful for combat situations. Make sure you get used to it as soon as possible. That’s an order.”

Jin-seok asked, “How does your smartphone help you fight?”

Gyeo-ul showed them the manual. “As I told you earlier, it’s best for you to read the manual. But to give you a simple example… it has a tactical map that updates each other’s positions in real-time, and it can calculate distance and wind ballistics, and you can get fire support through coordinates.”

“Huh, that’s great.”

All of these features were implemented via a single app, “Android Tactical Attack Kit.” He could also add other functions by installing plug-ins on his smartphone.

Therefore, Gyeo-ul’s phone had different functions than the combat chief’s. Gyeo-ul had a much broader set of privileges. There was access to closed circuits in the base, a noisemaker control, and access to some of the military intranet. The last one was a little unexpected.

There was a reason for it, though. Civil psychological warfare officers at the Pentagon wanted to receive real-time data on Gyeo-ul’s activities. The data was to be refined and used as propaganda material.

‘This is also a mission. But wouldn’t a Combat camera video be enough?’

He was thinking about this when his terminal vibrated. This time, it wasn’t Yura. It was a call from the command and control office. Gyeo-ul answered the phone a little away from people.

“This is Lieutenant Han Gyeo-ul.”

[Oh, you responded quickly. I was going to send you a radio message.]

It was Lieutenant Colonel Capston.

“Captain? What’s the matter?”

[Come to the briefing room immediately. Here’s the plan you need.]

“An operation?”

Gyeo-ul looked at the sky outside. All outside activities had been restricted due to bad weather, so what operation were they talking about sending him to? Since air travel was not easy, it had to be within walking or vehicle travel. The lieutenant colonel spoke quickly.

[I’ll tell you the details in private.]

“Yes, sir. I’ll be right there.”

[I’ll see you in a minute.]

The call ended. Gyeo-ul had detected anxiety in the lieutenant’s voice. ‘What the hell was that about?’

Gyeo-ul quickly walked out of the tent to meet him. In the rain, he walked briskly, pulling the sides of his raincoat closed.
