Chapter 19
[Bland Cold Noodles]
Usually, illegal immigrants become gangs.
Of course, there might be those who don't, but the majority do.
Especially the early illegal immigrants, even more so.
In the early stages where the South police don't have much to do, and all they do is ID checks.
"Currently, the South can be seen as a battlefield between illegal immigrants and police-yeees."
"Is this on Ingsta too?"
"Yees."
People who illegally enter in the early stages usually have the guts to become gang members.
This also might not apply to everyone, but at least the leader who led the illegal entry has such guts.
In other words, since most people capable of being gang members have illegally entered the South right now, the police doing their best to weed out illegal immigrants was a natural action in a way.
First of all, if they let them go for no reason and get looked down upon, their pride is hurt.
Since pride is a grave matter for police, they could absolutely not give it up.
Even more so when the opponent is a gang hopeful.
Regardless of circumstances, they had to catch and imprison them harshly.
If asked whether this situation is only disadvantageous for gang hopefuls, that wasn't the case either.
"They'll rather burn more fiercely?"
"Yees. Because it's infuriating right-yeees? Like beating and persecuting just for crossing a wall, or rolling them around as much as possible then sending them to North-yeees."
"Oh... detailed."
"Heard from a friend I know-yeees."
While at it, getting caught by police builds up hatred towards the world, so this was also justification and narrative.
Since gangs are ultimately created by people gathering, some trigger or place was needed.
Moreover, even at this moment, some illegal immigrants chose high-profit part-time jobs located in the central commercial district rather than fearing the police and circling the outskirts.
Why?
Because it makes money.
Most of such people were arrested by police and transported to North, but a minority survived and were grinding their teeth, so currently South was becoming a fountain of gang members in many ways.
Since the situation is like this, various petty criminals receive stronger punishment than original, and complaints stack up creating hatred.
A huge flow was created where the whole city urged the birth of gangs.
Illegal immigrants dying out become nutrients, and if they survive they become gangs, so it could be called a hellish dilemma.
"Of course, that's only the story for illegal immigrants though-yeees. People who bought citizenship normally and came are living comfortably-yeees."
"Understood but what does that have to do with that."
"Ah right. So why we have to recruit them is-yeees. To make a living with construction, eventually have to join hands with gangs-yeees."
Construction has a structure without separate business entity, meaning gangs can do it too.
Of course, high-level construction sites are efficient only if proficiency supports it, but later on that's unknown too.
If ignoring gangs who are more diligent than citizens, will get hurt big time.
It was certain that gangs who stacked up proficiency would appear someday.
For that time, connections had to be made in advance.
Crying after getting hit won't make anyone recognize you.
Have to build a relationship enough to cope when other gangs push in.
"In that sense, how about using those people for a long time-yeees. It's a waste to convert them to bounty I think..."
Plus, seeing them alive without getting caught until now, they seem to have sense.
Nogada, who pondered for a moment at Shin Yu-ri's words, asked.
"If they don't become a gang?"
"Theeen... just use them as slaves? Can just roll them with moderate threats-yeees. Or can convert to bounty then-yeees."
"Many places to use. Not a loss either way."
Ajura and Yui trembled at the serious conversation of the two.
"Scary-desu."
"Seems talents who will become gangs fell into construction by mistake-sumda."
"Anyway how is it-yeees?"
"Agree."
"I like it too-desu."
"Was needing underlings soon anyway-sumda."
"Then let's go."
"Yees."
Walking confidently like that, they soon fell into one question.
"But what if they say no-sumkka."
"Yees?"
"Thinking about it, who are we to check citizenship-desu. Don't think they'll give it obediently just because we ask-desu."
"If they run away in the meantime it becomes annoying. Will knock them down first and start."
"First of all illegal immigrants are people too-sumda. What if we get reported-sumkka."
The gaze of the three who pondered for a moment naturally returned to Yuria.
"Uh..."
Perhaps that gaze accelerated Yuria's brain rotation, Yuria soon succeeded in taking out one secret plan.
"Just press 112 [Police] and threaten-yeees?"
"Wut."
"No no matter what isn't that too reckless-desu..."
When Ajura and Yui were showing reluctance.
Nogada ran.
Not because there was a particular other reason.
"Annoyingly what plan."
Because it was annoying.
At this level I endured long.
Seeing him, Yuria also ran following him immediately.
"No really doing it?"
"Cool Guy power is truly crazy-sumda."
Remaining two ran belatedly and followed them.
What welcomed Nogada and Yuria who barged in noisily were 4 people.
"Hands up it's police."
"Hands up-yeees."
Nogada, who barged in recklessly, impersonated police first.
Yuria, who followed in, started filming with phone in hand.
"Hiiik sorry!!"
"Ah haven't even finished cycle yet!!"
"Run!!"
"Wait! Everyone calm down!!"
Threatening began.
"Hey Man-deuk-ah, wake up a bit. Does that look like police uniform to your eyes."
"Plainclothes police-yeees."
"Correct."
"Aigoo what chaos barging in suddenly. You guys aren't police."
"Plainclothes police correct-yeees."
"What plainclothes police my ass no police mark..."
"Can call police reinforcement so sufficiently plainclothes police right. Don't you think so?"
At Nogada's words, the eyes of the 4 people naturally turned to him.
He was holding up his hand since entering, now looking at it, a phone screen with 112 input was floating there.
Having finished grasping the situation, they immediately lay flat on the floor.
"Aigoo teachers!!! Please look at our situation a bit!!"
"We are also trying to make a living!!"
"Please let us off. Please."
"Meuheeeeeng..."
Situation grasp was on the fast side.
Seeing them lie flat immediately without resisting, Yuria couldn't hold back bursting laughter.
"Pahat...."
In that time Nogada took a step forward.
"Oi. Illegal immigrants."
"Yeeet!"
"Ya-i-ssi if you answer that...!"
"Heeeeeeek!"
"Ah damn screwed! Yep!! Illegal immigrants are here!"
"Yeeep! Illegal immigrants correct!"
"Don't particularly intend to report. Have a proposal instead."
"From here I'll do it-yeees. What we want is simple. You guys will make a gang right-yeees?"
"Thaaat..."
"Illegal entry at this time is obvious-yeees. Rather hoping for it, so speak comfortably-yeees."
"Yes correct. Rumors circulating that number of gangs will be limited so crossed over urgently. That illegal entry line was pulled out sexy so..."
"Then story will be quick-yeees. We will help you."
"Help...?"
"You guys are filthy illegal immigrants right-yeees?"
"Yeeet! Correct!! Social tumors are us!!"
"Seeing you alive until now, must have waited for spawn only at outskirts while reading the room?"
"Correct! Right now central commercial district is tightly held by police so didn't even dare!! Actually first time at 2-story house too!!"
Yuria, satisfied with brisk answers, clapped once.
"Yees. The part I will help is exactly there-yeees."
"There means...?"
"We 2 people, 2 people from there. Mix half and half and 4 teams will run construction-yeees. Location is unconditionally 2-story house. We 1st floor, you guys 2nd floor-yeees."
"Ah such...!"
"Yees. A kind of turret feeling? Means will keep watch-yeees. Right now police are lighting eyes and searching right-yeees?"
"Then what you want is... if it's commission willing to pay."
"That is good too buuut. I want something more human-yeees."
"Human...? Ah perhaps?"
"Yees. Would like you to remember us-yeees."
"Remember...? Ah, phew..."
Sigh of relief came out unwittingly.
Best.
People who bought citizenship on Day 4.
Just this belongs to front runners but here not one but four people.
Meant people who are different even if different.
This was a line to grab.
More narratives the better gain.
Plus doesn't seem to have intention to be gang so pie doesn't overlap.
Leader of the 4, Kwak Du-pal accepted this happily.
"Will serve you from now on."
"Ey, don't need to do up to that though-yeees..."
"Kneel."
"Yep!"
"A-it cha-am [Oh my]..."
"Two really suit well-sumda."
"Wouldn't it be better for us to do gang-desu?"
"Perhaps do you have thoughts? If you just have thoughts I can yield head seat too..."
"No-yeees. It's okay-yeees. Let's just stay friendly-yeees."
"Ah yep! Then how distribution..."
"How shall we do distribution-yeees? Mr. Nogada?"
Yuria asked back to Nogada explicitly.
While knowing he isn't a person to object particularly.
This was a kind of imprinting.
Imprinting that that person is the leader.
Opponent also noticed and turned head slightly buried on floor towards Nogada.
"There group... what to call. Anyway match by ranks. There Rank 1, 2 with us, Rank 3, 4 with behind. "
"How do hearts match so well with me. I agree. Hyun-ah wake up."
"Du-pal-ssi..!"
"I'll save you."
"Really thank you..."
"If I don't take care of you who will. Come here."
"Yeeet!"
"Perhaps are you two in a something something relationship-yeees?"
"No, well... that getting to know each other relationship!"
"No no no. Not that relationship yet..."
"Not yet-yeees? Hehehehe..."
"What dating relationship? Last long."
"Kyaaaaaaaak!!!"
"Ay, well... embarrassing. Well seems it became like that. Perhaps dislike?"
"Ah... no... like..."
The two, downed by Yuria and Nogada's one-two punch, eventually stopped being coy.
"I like it too."
"Heu-eu..."
Viewers who were making a fuss about Nogada and Yuria's tiki-taka until now had their heads broken by the real Some shown by them.
