Chapter 34 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 34

The narrator reflects on the absurdity of bureaucratic systems persisting even in the apocalypse, recalling a Gate Management Public Servant’s strict enforcement of expired Hunter licenses and Noh Do-hwa’s reminder about filing income taxes. This reflection is interrupted by a KakaoTalk notification on May 4 of the 56th cycle, reading 'The Republic of Korea Falls Again' and inviting the recipient to file comprehensive income tax via an ARS number. Initially dismissed as a dangerous 'ghost message'—a common anomaly in a world where electronics are risky—the narrator’s curiosity is piqued when Sim Ah-ryeon reveals she received a physical letter in her secure room, identical to the digital message. Jeong Ye-ji confirms that letters appeared at front doors nationwide, and no one witnessed their delivery, indicating a high-level anomaly affecting the entire Korean Peninsula. The narrator, identified as Undertaker, investigates an SG Net post where an anonymous user called the number. The user reported a robotic voice menu offering options like 'Additional Corpse Tax' and directing him to the destroyed Pocheon Tax Office. Despite community warnings against engaging anomalies, the user planned to investigate Pocheon. Seizing the opportunity to verify the anomaly, Undertaker travels to Pocheon. En route, he encounters Lee Ju-ho, a young man from his past cycle who also heads to the tax office with a smartphone showing the SG Net post, confirming he is the anonymous investigator.
