Chapter 41

### **Chapter 41**

**Car**

***

Communication Impossible was not as terrifying a crew as the rumors said.

According to the rumors spread in the world, they were the masterminds of this city, the real power swaying two gangs.

As a result of actually meeting them, they were a bit too friendly to be masterminds.

Conversing with gangs, discussing with each other, even trivial chats.

Their everyday aspects were exactly like ordinary citizens who like construction.

So it gave goosebumps a little.

Because it meant they were a more thorough crew than the rumors.

Don't know how or why they came to command gangs, but they were stably operating a bizarre structure of citizens standing above gangs.

Going as far as binding two gangs in different ways, he admired them without realizing it.

They didn't even lose their faces as citizens while doing that, so Kim Jeong-gyu's wariness rose greatly at that point.

There is an architect.

Can't be certain yet whether it's Nogada or Yuria, but there is definitely an architect who moves while planning everything.

"The relationship between Communication Impossible and Negotiation Impossible is deeper than expected."

"... Are you speaking to me?"

"Yes, that's right. Because actually I didn't know it would be to this extent."

"As you can see, it's deep. To a level where it could practically be called a blood alliance."

"Do you also have a connection with Communication Impossible?"

"I'm a member who came in a little late so actually almost none. Though I know Du-pal Hyung-nim well."

The man said that and chattered about the memories of illegal entry he and Kwak Du-pal had experienced.

Don Milan, who was listening to him quietly, opened his mouth.

"But don't you have any particular thoughts? About the fact that Communication Impossible, whom you don't even know well, is ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠above your gang."

It was a tone as if interrogating, but he answered obediently.

Because it was ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠a part he got a hint about from Kwak Du-pal.

He said to tell whatever he asks as long as it's not a really important secret right?

The gang member thought for a moment then answered honestly.

"About Communication Impossible? Well I have no particular thoughts. They do order us around this and that, but it's all helpful parts too. First off they say he's Hyung-nim's Hyung-nim so we revere him. Heard they are benefactors, and listening to the stories it's fully understandable. Going from the first meeting......"

Rendering the initial buildup pointless, his story gradually grew closer to Yongbieocheonga [Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven/Heroic Epic].

The moment Communication Impossible, who discovered Kwak Du-pal's gang barely making a living, picked them up, the incident of confronting the police 3 on 1, brothers separated by the system's patch and Nogada's decision for them.

Although it was all told as true facts, as he slowly started adding flesh [embellishments] to an already dramatic story, this was becoming a kind of founding myth.

Because originally rumors grow bigger as they are passed down.

Kwak Du-pal's love for his Hyung-nim put tremendous acceleration on inflating that rumor, so inside Negotiation Impossible it was already a famous story everyone knew.

On top of that, as this story started to act as their own justification for founding, they started to elevate it without even knowing themselves, reaching a point where they became proud of it in the end.

Why?

Because it's not someone else's business.

Actually they just weren't put on the roster, but they were essentially gang members.

Naturally the better they were, the better it was for him too.

Having become one with the organization, he chattered about Nogada's legitimacy while spitting.

Don Milan, who heard his boring and pedantic yet fervent declaration of support, made up his mind.

"As expected Mr. Nogada. No Nogada-ham. Thought there was something different about him from the first time I saw him..."

Let's just suck up to him together.

Since it seems I might get stabbed in reverse if I poke around here and there for no reason, such a decision to just settle down where I took a spot and do business.

No, he's deaf yet he reeled in even the low-ranking members.

Seeing as it's this level here, Cooperation Impossible would do more if anything, not less.

Architect or whatever, if I do it wrong I'm on the verge of suffering post-mortem architecture [getting erased].

At the sight of a massive empire that couldn't be known from rumors, Don Milan determined his stance immediately.

"Aren't we also in the same boat now? Please come visit the shop often."

He didn't seem to have the leeway to weigh how good or solid this line was.

"Didn't you say it's a host bar there? I am a man though..."

"Wouldn't it be fun in its own way to run as a player [host]? Seeing as your eloquence is quite something."

Because he felt he could at least recover his principal if he dashed in now right before it was completed.

"Ah is that so? This is again......"

Let's absolutely not let go.

Car.

The time to buy a car has come.

It's already been 7 days since living as a walker.

The time to settle the humiliation and hardship suffered in the meantime has finally arrived.

"Come hither!"

"Even so there are no people here-yeees."

"The scale is bigger than I thought."

"Because all cars except a few sports cars are here-desu. ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠Ha want to buy a sports car..."

Of course they didn't have money to buy the premium line.

"For sports cars, just having money isn't the end I mean-sumda. Because you have to draw a ticket or buy one, it's impossible right now-sumda."

Since a separate ticket is needed to enter the premium store, they couldn't go even with money.

"Too bad-desu... But there are high-spec cars here in their own way too-desu!!!"

"What rootless sports car-sumkka. Shouldn't we just buy a moderately fast electric car-sumkka."

"Electric cars are as expensive as sports cars, what dog sound are you making-desu."

While Ajura and Yui were bickering, Yuria opened her mouth.

"Would buying about two be enough-yeees?"

"Going to ride it for a moment, isn't it excessive."

"We can give it to Negotiation Impossible later-yeees. If there's one car, wouldn't the radius of action become too narrow and frustrating-yeees?"

"Then let's buy two."

At those words, Yui dropped what she was fighting about and came running.

"Then can I pick about one-desu? With a slick car I'll..."

"First Yui's right to speak is confiscated. You stand at the entrance over there and wait."

Nogada subdued the rampaging Yui first.

It wasn't smooth because she resisted unusually, but eventually surrendered in front of the fist.

"Uuuuu... Woo... Uuuu, uuuu..."

Crouched at the entrance and started lamenting her situation.

Leaving behind Yui who drooped having lost her strength, the three roamed around here and there in the store.

"How is this-sumkka? The specs on this..."

"It's not pretty."

"... Yes?"

But their tour was stopped by noise occurring at an unexpected point.

Nogada, surprisingly.

No, blatantly started caring about the design.

"This one..."

"The bumper is unlikable."

"Then this friend..."

"The back being short and fat makes me want to do pickaxe work on it."

"Then next batter...!"

"I want to land a headshot on that bulging part."

It was a fastidiousness that made even Yuria click her tongue.

Said differently, it meant he was fucking sensitive.

At the bitchiness almost matching a girlfriend on the 2nd day of her period, Yuria admired, Yui trembled, and Ajura crumpled.

Why did Ajura suddenly crumple, you ask?

Because...

—Thwack!

"Ajura your right to speak is confiscated too."

She flew away from a full-charge punch and physically crumpled.

Now Yuria was the only one left.

Yuria swallowed her saliva at the unusual atmosphere.

"Umm..."

I don't know cars well...

It was a field she herself was not confident in either.

What is it.

What should I pick?

What's the difference.

Don't know aren't they all just the same squares?

Just seems like a coloring game.

Yuria broke out in a cold sweat.

Doesn't look like he'll let it slide today.

He was radical usually too but not to this extent.

"Next... next..."

Because he had escaped the level of a tyrant and become a beast.

What's more bizarre is the atmosphere of the chat window.

Not a single person is uncomfortable.

Even though Ajura and Yui became like that, no one cares.

This was entirely the result of the average age of the chat window and past experiences combining.

Men are biologically creatures crazy for dinosaurs, balls, and vehicles.

But there is a timing to obsess over each element, and dinosaurs are the example right away.

To the point where it's safe to say necessarily, dinosaurs work well on young boys.

If it was glow-in-the-dark, even fainting would probably be possible.

Next is the ball.

The ball is a being loved from infancy, and has the characteristic that the love deepens as they enter adolescence.

Since there are not a few men who live their whole lives as slaves to the ball, it's safe to see it as dominating a man's lifetime.

Then what about vehicles.

Love for vehicles peaks in the 30s.

To be exact, it peaks at the age when they seriously drive a car and gain experience, slowly understanding what 'getting out feeling' [prestige] is.

And the average age of Yuria's viewer demographic is 32.

Most of the chat window was serious about this matter.

Serious enough to push back the trivial problem of beating a person.

And actually, since Nogada beating a person wasn't a matter of today or yesterday, even more so.

Of course, from a perspective of not knowing that, it was to the extent of wondering if it was mass hypnosis, so Yuria quietly trembled her hands.

"Will you pick this time. Pick comfortably."

"C... comfortably-yeees."

Yuria squeezed her eyes shut while looking at the catalog that didn't end no matter how much she scrolled.

"Don't know!"

Just pressed it just like that in that state.

The car that finally appeared was exactly...

"What is this refrigerator-sumkka?"

"Wow washbasin."

Ajura who was stuck over there and Yui who was lying down hurriedly got up, the identity of the car they approached was...

It was an SUV with a cheap price, fat appearance, and ambiguous specs.

"I, isn't this guy much better-sumkka? Because......"

"Ha this is why car ignoramuses are a no-desu. First off there's a problem from the specs......"

The two who caught a case [pretext] excitedly cornered her thinking this is the time.

Because what they had suffered so far was beyond piling up and on the verge of overflowing, if they passed this opportunity obediently that would make them Buddhas.

Yuria also knew that, so she accepted the situation while being pessimistic about her luck.

And at that moment.

"Hmm. You definitely have sense."

Nogada purchased the car immediately with a short compliment.

A moment of silence.

The cries of the two apes containing sorrow bursting out after that contained so much resentment that even Nogada, who couldn't hear sound, was surprised and couldn't respond immediately.

Of course it was that he couldn't respond immediately, not that he didn't.

In conclusion, since he couldn't hear, he recovered quickly.

Nogada boldly lowered his phone and raised his fist.

Since ancient times this was the medicine, and the medicine was effective.

"Stop...! Understood-desu!!"

"I came to my senses-sumda. I won't scream-sumda."

The two beasts received Nogada's fist of love and regained human language.

Of course the dissatisfaction remained.

"This is favoritism-desu. I lost my right to speak just by speaking one word wrong-desu. Didn't even talk much-desu."

"To disparage this sexy guy I picked like that, I think it's too much-sumda!!!"

At the appeals of the two, Nogada answered shortly.

"If I was going to buy one worth hundreds of millions, I would have bought a ticket and went to look for a sports car. Said I'm going to buy something to ride for a moment, recommending such a thing obviously means you want to get hit right?"

Yui sank.

"What you picked was purely cut because it was ugly. Expensive despite being ugly. The worst."

Ajura also sank.

Yuria, who came to her senses at the donation sound, looked at the sprawling two for a moment then.

"... Anyway, you should listen well-yeees."

Started disparaging them immediately.
