Episode 4 – Line of Hypocrisy (4)
第四集-伪善之路(四)
The next morning, I was almost out of supplies. Jung Heewon stared at the convenience store bags as if she couldn't believe it.
第二天早上,我的补给品几乎用完了。郑熙媛盯着便利店的购物袋,好像不敢相信。
"Oh my god, it is sold out?"
“哦,天哪,票卖完了?”
"Yes."
“是的。”
“Ha, really funny. Everyone was just watching and now…"
“哈,真有趣,大家都在看,现在......”
“Nope, it isn't just the marginalized group."
“不,不仅仅是边缘化群体。”
The guests who came in the middle of the night weren't just members of the marginalized group.
半夜来的客人不仅仅是边缘群体的成员。
“Kim Dokja-ssi, you are making the worst choice."
“KimDokja-ssi,你在做最糟糕的选择。”
Among them was Cheon Inho.
其中包括千尼奥。
“You will regret it."
“你会后悔的。”
More than half the food I had was taken by the mainstream group. Of course, they paid the exact amount.
我吃的食物有一半以上是主流人群吃的,当然,他们支付的正好是这个数目。
Jung Heewon was in a rage after hearing the story.
郑和元听了这个故事后勃然大怒。
“Wait a minute. Then the mainstream group will just monopolize the food again?"
“等一下,那么主流团体又会垄断食物了?”
"Something like that."
“差不多吧。”
"No, what is this? Weren't you going to weaken the power of the mainstream group by promoting transactions among the people?"
“不,这是什么?难道你不打算通过促进人民之间的交易来削弱主流群体的力量吗?”
It was unexpected insight. I responded with a bit of admiration.
这是出乎意料的洞察力,我带着一丝钦佩回应。
"That's correct. That was the intent. I wanted people to move voluntarily."
“没错。这就是我们的目的。我希望人们自愿搬迁。”
“Then why did you sell food to the mainstream group? The situation won't change!"
“那你为什么把食物卖给主流群体?情况不会改变!”
"It has changed. I have obtained coins."
“它已经变了。我已经得到了硬币。”
"Huh?"
“啊?”
It was 1,450 coins. It was a huge income for one night.
这是1450枚硬币,一个晚上的巨额收入。
"No…what is Dokja-ssi thinking? Sangah-ssi, can we really trust this man?"
“不......Dokja-ssi在想什么?Sangah-ssi,我们真的能相信这个人吗?”
Yoo Sangah flinched as attention suddenly turned to her but then she smiled brightly.
当注意力突然转向她时,刘尚雅退缩了一下,但随后她灿烂地笑了。
"I believe in him."
“我相信他。”
It was burdensome.
这是个沉重的负担。
“Dokja-ssi, did you leave enough food for yourself?"
“Dokja-ssi,你给自己留下足够的食物了吗?”
“Nope, I sold it."
“不,我把它卖了。”
Jung Heewon's mouth fell open as if she was dumbfounded. At that time, someone poked my cheek. I turned my head and found a biscuit.
郑鹤元张开了嘴,好像哑口无言。那时,有人摸了摸我的脸。我转过头,发现了一块饼干。
"Huh? You want me to eat it?"
“啊?你想让我吃了它?”
Nod nod. The head moved cutely. I smiled, took the biscuit and put it in Lee Gilyoung's mouth.
点点头。脑袋可爱地动了动。我微笑着,把饼干放进李吉杨的嘴里。
“I'm okay. You eat it. Ah, I should tell you something… everyone, do you still have the food you ate yesterday?"
“我没事。你吃了它。啊,我得告诉你们一件事......各位,你们昨天吃的东西还在吗?”
“Yes, I have it."
“是的,我有。”
“I have a bit left."
“我还剩一点。”
“Why? Do you want to buy it back? I will sell it." Jung Heewon waved the biscuit in a playful manner.
“为什么?你想把它买回来吗?我会卖掉它。”郑和元以一种好玩的方式挥舞着饼干。
“No, you should eat it now."
“不,你应该现在就吃。”
"Huh?"
“啊?”
“Eat it all before today. You should do it." I repeatedly stressed. "Or you will regret it."
“在今天之前全部吃完。你应该这样做。”我反复强调。“否则你会后悔的。”
“Why…no, wait a minute. Sangah-ssi, what are you doing now? Why are you listening to him?"
“为什么......不,等一下。桑嘎-西,你现在在做什么?你为什么要听他的?”
“There is a reason why Dokja-ssi would say this."
“Dokja-ssi这么说是有原因的。”
Yoo Sangah smiled sweetly and opened a bag of biscuits. Lee Hyunsung was confused but ate the food. Meanwhile, Lee Gilyoung had eaten it the moment I spoke. He was a good listener.
刘尚雅甜甜地笑了笑,打开了一袋饼干。李贤星很困惑,但还是吃了食物。与此同时,李·吉林在我说话的那一刻就已经把它吃掉了。他是一个很好的倾听者。
“Ah well…I will leave one back."
“好吧......我会留一个回来。”
"I won't stop you."
“我不会阻止你的。”
I shrugged at Jung Heewon's words. It was up to her to regret it.
我对郑鹤元的话只是耸耸肩,她自己会后悔的。
At lunch time, there was a major announcement from the mainstream group. Cheon Inho stood on a platform surrounded by people and said.
午餐时间,主流团体发表了一项重要声明。仁川尼奥站在一个被人包围的平台上说。
“We will limit the food ration from today. The allocation is three biscuits per person. And―"
“从今天开始,我们将限制粮食配给。配给是每人三块饼干。还有-”
People became irritated before the speech was over.
演讲还没结束,人们就生气了。
"What? Three biscuits? How can we live on that?"
“什么?三块饼干?我们怎么能靠它过活?”
“That’s right! Don't the scouts get more food? Do you think we don't know?"
“没错!侦察兵没有得到更多的食物吗?你以为我们不知道吗?”
Despite being cursed at, Cheon Inho just laughed calmly.
尽管被骂了一顿,千尼奥还是冷静地笑了起来。
“Your words are good. Yes. The scouts receive more rations. If you want food, please apply to be a scout."
“你的话很好。是的。童子军得到更多的配给。如果你想要食物,请申请成为童子军。”
“Very few people have come back after applying to be a scout! The Cheoldoo Group members are the ones who always come back!"
“很少有人在申请成为一名童子军后回来!经常回来的是Cheoldoo集团的成员!”
“Do you want us to die now?"
“你想让我们现在就死吗?”
Cheon Inho was nonchalant despite the violence reactions of the citizens.
尽管市民们做出了暴力反应,村民们还是泰然处之。
“Those people were just unlucky. You know that it is terribly dangerous outside. Why don't you obtain food yourself if you are dissatisfied?"
“那些人只是运气不好。你知道外面非常危险。如果你不满意,为什么不自己去弄点吃的呢?”
“T-That…”
“那个t......”
The people closed their mouths dumbly. If they went out now, they would die. Everyone knew this.
人们哑口无言地闭上了嘴。如果他们现在出去,他们就会死。每个人都知道这一点。
Cheon Inho wasn't finished.
千尼奥还没有完成。
“Ah, there is a way to get food without being a scout."
“啊,有一种方法可以在不充当侦察兵的情况下获得食物。”
"What is it?"
“这是什么?”
“A deal. We will be happy to exchange food for anything we determine to be of value. Every person can give something different. Isn't that right?"
“一笔交易。我们很乐意用食物交换任何我们认为有价值的东西。每个人都可以给予不同的东西。对不对?”
Cheon Inho's cold gaze caused the people to tremble. It was mostly the people who came to me yesterday and bought food.
仁川尼奥的冷漠目光使人们战栗不已。大部分是昨天来找我买食物的人。
[The character 'Cheon Inho' has activated the 'Incite Lv. 2' skill.
[字符‘CheonInho’已经激活了‘煽动吕2’技能。
“Originally, I wasn't going to do this. But yesterday, Kim Dokja-ssi told me something nice. That's right everyone. Is there anything free in the world? If you want food, you have to prove your worth. This is the way it is. Haha, thank you for telling me something good. Kim Dokja-ssi."
“最初,我并不打算这么做。但是昨天,KimDokja-ssi告诉我一些美好的事情。没错,各位。世界上有免费的东西吗?如果你想要食物,你必须证明你的价值。事情就是这样。哈哈,谢谢你告诉我一些好消息。KimDokja-ssi。”
…Look at this?
看看这个?
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on me. Their eyes were mostly filled with resentment.
这时,大家的注意力都集中在我身上,眼里充满了怨恨。
"Because of that bastard…"
“因为那个混蛋......”
People wanted to be stupid and Cheon Inho had the 'Incite' skill. It was a skill that most good group leaders would have. But this way, the hostility would turn towards me again…
人们希望自己是愚蠢的,而千妮奥掌握了煽动技巧。这是大多数优秀的团队领导都具备的技能。但这样,敌意又会转向我.....。
I looked at the back of Cheon Inho. It was a cute level. At least compared to the people at Chungmuro and Seoul Station.
我看了看千妮奥的背影。这是一个可爱的层次。至少和忠武路和首尔站的人相比。
The people gathered in front of the podium were already trying to bargain.
聚集在讲台前的人们已经开始讨价还价了。
"I-I will buy it with coins. How much do you want?"
“我用硬币买,你要多少钱?”
"200 coins."
“200个硬币”
"Huh? But I don't have that many coins."
“嗯?但我没有那么多硬币。”
"Then go away."
“那就走吧。”
200 coins for one piece of food. Even the dokkaebi was likely to pass out.
200个硬币换一块食物,就连多卡比都有可能晕过去。
One of the Cheoldoo Group selling food saw my look and trembled. He had a bandage around his thigh and seemed to be one of the guys I beat up yesterday.
一个卖食物的Cheoldoo集团的成员看到我的表情吓得发抖。他的大腿上缠着绷带,看起来像是我昨天揍的人之一。
“Did I ever say thank you for yesterday?"
“昨天的事我有说过谢谢你吗?”
I suddenly turned my head and saw Jung Heewon standing nearby.
我突然转过头,看见郑和元站在附近。
"I think I heard it."
“我想我听到了。”
“Still, I want to thank you again."
“不过,我还是要再次感谢你。”
I wanted to say something but Jung Heewon's eyes were fixed on the injured Cheoldoo member.
我想说点什么,但郑鹤元的眼睛盯着受伤的Cheoldoo成员。
“The one with the injured leg, he was the one who tried to rape me yesterday."
“腿受伤的那个,就是昨天企图强奸我的那个。”
"…I see."
“我明白了。”
"Don't touch him because I will kill him myself. Understood?"
“别碰他,否则我会亲手杀了他,明白吗?”
Her killing intent was impressive. Was she chosen by a sponsor or was it a late blooming attribute?
她的杀人意图令人印象深刻。她是被赞助商选中的,还是一种迟暮的属性?
[The exclusive skill, Character List is activated.]
[独家技能,角色列表被激活。]
I was a little worried about using this skill. This woman would've died if I hadn't saved her. Would she be registered as a character?
我有点担心使用这个技能。如果不是我救了这个女人,她早就死了。她会被登记为一个角色吗?

总体评价:她是一个有着巨大潜力的“蜷缩形象”。属性信息还没有被验证,因为属性还没有发挥作用。
Fortunately, her information appeared. It was different from Yoo Sangah, Lee Gilyoung and Han Myungoh. Was she originally not abandoned? By the way, it was a very interesting exclusive attribute.
幸运的是,她的信息出现了。它不同于YooSangah,LeeGilyoung和HanMyungoh。她原来不是被遗弃的吗?顺便说一下,这是一个非常有趣的排他性属性。
'Crouching figure.'
蜷缩的身影
It didn't seem big based on the name, but it was one of the few 'super evolutionary' attributes in Ways of Destruction. 'Crouching Figure' was a general rated attribute, but it could reach a rare or legendary rating depending on the occasion.
从名字上看,它似乎并不大,但它是《毁灭之路》中为数不多的“超级进化”属性之一。“蜷缩的身影”是一个普遍的等级属性,但它可以达到一个罕见的或传奇的等级取决于场合。

《生存之道》中100个最强壮的人之一,《疯狂屠夫》是从“蜷缩的身体”演变而来的
Jung Heewon I thought she was just a passing person but I might have to consider taking her as a colleague.
我以为她只是一个过客,但我可能不得不考虑把她当作一个同事。
It would take a while to grow her 'Demon Slaying' skill but this woman could become a powerful hitman if she was raised well.
这需要一段时间来提高她的“杀死恶魔”的技能,但是如果这个女人被很好的抚养长大,她可以成为一个强大的杀手。
“By the way, Dokja-ssi is very calm."
“顺便说一句,Dokja-ssi非常冷静。”
Calm… It might seem like that.
冷静...看起来是这样的。
“I am familiar with situations like this in the novel."
“我对小说中的情节很熟悉。”
"Huh? Does that make sense… Wait a minute. Where are you going?"
“啊?这说得通吗...等一下,你要去哪儿?”
I didn't answer and descended from the platform. Jung Heewon wanted to come with me and I reached out a hand to stop her.
我没有回答,从平台上下来。郑鹤元想和我一起去,我伸出手去阻止她。
“It’s okay.”
“没关系。”
Jung Heewon landed lightly below the platform.
郑和元轻轻地降落在平台下面。
I walked along the railway tracks and watched the tunnel road to Yaksu Station. It was filled with thick darkness and the inside wasn't visible, but it smelt terrible. It was a bloody smell.
我沿着铁轨走着,看着通往雅克苏车站的隧道公路。里面一片漆黑,看不见里面,但闻起来很可怕。那是一股血腥的味道。
“You aren't going inside are you?"
“你不是要进去吧?”
Jung Heewon asked.
郑鹤元问道。
“Everyone who went that way has died. The thugs or anyone else. Everyone who goes inside will unconditionally die."
“所有走那条路的人都死了。那些暴徒或任何其他人。所有走进去的人都将无条件地死去。”
Her words were wrong. Not everyone died. At least one person had already gone down this road and moved onto the next station.
她的话是错的。不是每个人都死了。至少有一个人已经沿着这条路走到了下一个车站。
We climbed onto the platform again. We had been gone for quite a time but the line of people to trade food was still long.
我们又爬上了平台。我们已经走了很长一段时间了,但是交易食物的队伍仍然很长。
Some people who protested against the mainstream group were beaten up and other paid unusual prices for the food.
一些抗议主流团体的人被殴打,其他人为这些食物支付了不寻常的价格。
Shortly afterwards, Jung Heewon saw a few young women from the marginalized group sneak into the back of a tarp and she became furious.
不久之后,JungHeewon看到一些来自边缘群体的年轻女性偷偷溜进一块防水布后面,她变得非常愤怒。
"Ah, really annoying. Did you see that?"
“啊,真烦人。你看到了吗?”
“I saw it."
“我看到了。”
Cheon Inho had said it. 'Anything' could be exchanged for food. But the girls who just entered weren't carrying anything.
千妮奥说过,任何东西都可以用来交换食物,但是刚进来的女孩没有携带任何东西。
Jung Heewon sprang to her feet.
郑鹤元跳了起来。
“I can't just watch this."
“我不能就这么看着。”
"What will you do?"
“你打算怎么办?”
“Stop it. I have to tell them not to do it, no matter the circumstances!”
“住手。我必须告诉他们,无论情况如何,都不要这样做!”
“Then those women will starve."
“那么这些女人就会挨饿。”
“Are you just going to watch?"
“你就打算看着吗?”
“Yes, I think you should just watch this time."
“是的,我觉得这次你应该看看。”
"What do you mean by that?"
“你这是什么意思?”
I silently received Jung Heewon's contemptuous gaze.
我默默地接受了郑和元轻蔑的目光。
“Jung Heewon-ssi, stopping those women won't solve the current problem. Even if you stop them now, something similar will occur late at night."
”郑平元-西,阻止那些妇女不能解决当前的问题。即使你现在阻止他们,类似的事情也会在深夜发生。”
"…Then I will stop them again. I will stop it and stop it."
“......然后我会再次阻止他们。我会阻止它,阻止它。”
“Then what about their food? Among those who just entered the tarp, there is a mother with a child. If that child starves to death, will Jung Heewon-ssi be responsible for the child's death?"
”“那么他们的食物怎么办?在刚刚进入防水布的人群中,有一位母亲带着一个孩子。如果那个孩子饿死了,郑鹤元会为那个孩子的死负责吗?”
Jung Heewon's eyes shook. She bowed her head as if to hide her expression.
郑鹤元的眼睛在颤抖,她低下了头,好像要掩饰自己的表情。
"…Then what can I do? The alternative…"
”...那我能做什么?另一种选择...”
I looked up at Jung Heewon.
我抬头看着郑和元。
With this, Jung Heewon wouldn't do anything unexpected. She was a 'Crouching Figure' with 'Demon Slaying.' Depending on how she acted, Jung Heewon might evolve into an indiscriminate murderer.
