PASSION - 20. Close to Heaven

....Saudi Arabia's current foreign minister is Prince Bandar Al-Fad. He's a wise man, but he's not very healthy from birth, so after that, Prince Rashid and Prince Ali are fighting for diplomatic leadership. Prince Al-Faisal is Ali's brother, a very close brother, born in winter. He started a business early in the battle for power....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4750EYVBNn

It was a dirty story everywhere.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRtTADImWY

Where there is power, bugs get tangled. If there's money there, it's more. The pattern became more dirty and complicated as the worms stretched.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkX12z8sEN

There are more bugs inside than outside the eyes of others. Perhaps if someone else was talking like that, the inside would have smelled unimaginably bad.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63vDvCQhGJ

"Oh, there's no day to sleep in that town."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBCmpXsU7s

Jeong Tae-ui murmured, chewing dried plums. The soft-dried fruit was very sweet. Jeong Tae-ui continued, rubbing his fingertips with the fruit that would be honey in the mouths of those living in the hot martyrs.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIBLVvP0Li

"What would you say if I get in the mess because I want to, but I don't want it to put in the wrong person who doesn't care for nothing."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbxgYujZYl

Jeong Tae-ui has been grumbling for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3Qrv64i7k

But no one responded to his grumbling. Once there was a person sitting in front of him, but he was turning the pages, so he didn't listen to Jeong Tae-ui and if he said something important, he would answer calmly as if he had listened to it all. Even if he could communicate, he probably couldn't talk. The space inside this building was Arab, not Tanzania's Seringue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1kUooqxWW

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him unfortunately, recalling a high school alumnus who said in the past that he almost got into big trouble after talking to a woman who was lost in Iran for work.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6fUTC6edy

He didn't really want to talk to her. In the first place, Jeong Tae-ui has never seen a woman with that kind of eyes for a while. Women are not the object of desire for him, even if he can simply admire the ''beauty of women''.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvUl4Ugn6i

......But it didn't occur to him that the Arab man, who stood with a knife in the corner of the corridor and looked at his side as if he were watching, would recognize the pure heart of the stillness.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmluLrk8BRV

"Beer would be perfect."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoURdpkYt1

Jeong Tae-ui muttered like a sigh and lay on the floor.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cKFBMNA6e

There was an elegant garden when he came out of the small side door at the end of the corridor, outside the small stone-covered courtyard in the middle of the corridor. The place, where trees and bushes were overgrown, was filled with various fine flowers and grasses, as if the botanical garden had been reduced and moved.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBorF9txsF

Sitting against the rubber tree in the back, Jeong Jae-ui was quietly turning the pages. And while lying in the shade of the grass in front of it, Jeong Tae-ui was pulling the fruit basket that the white-clad lady had left next to Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN4P0OrLNP

It was a beautiful place. Perhaps this is the closest place to heaven.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZSDpLvPnV

He didn't hear any noise. In a quiet space, there was nothing but the sound of the wind, the sound of the bushes or blowing, the sound of birds sometimes screaming or flapping their wings on the bushes, and the sound of girls laughing in the distance.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5piwtgF3Q

A blue sky that is cold as if falling in front of you.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM43e5bQg17

And next to it was the most beloved brother. The familiar sound of turning over the bookshelf from time to time calms the mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJjFjtyTue

"No wonder it's funny. I can't believe the separation of the person who dipped one foot in that messy mess is so close to heaven."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1BH1w5sZs

Jeong Tae-ui muttered lazily.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOoHNRp5tG

Indeed, he thought he would understand Jeong Jae's mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm0PSs6mHv

"Were you stuck here all the time? Everyone else is looking for you. Even if you're locked up, you could have left if you wanted to.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ziY52GFml

When Jeong Tae-ui asked him, he replied calmly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cWm6UQHrB

"It's comfortable. It's not like there's a place I want to go."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2LrQq328n

Jeong Tae-ui was speechless at Jeong Jae's answer. Well, he thought they treated him preciously because he is locked up with his own purpose. Just by looking around the living space, there were no signs of rough handling, such as giving a separate residence where people did not come and go. Rather, there were traces of careful consideration everywhere so that they could enjoy maximum comfort while not being able to.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnImCtrI5PW

"I don't have to say hello to the owner? But I just came to someone else's house."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk76MPeNvO

It was funny to think that he would meet the criminal who kidnapped his brother and say, "Hello, I owe you." but regardless of the greeting, he deserves to look at the face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJq85UFBx9

However, he shook his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDEfBL9u9i

"I went back to our home country four days ago. I have to go to the hospital regularly, so I go out once a month. I usually come back after a week, so I think I'll have to stay for another four days. Plus..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtXuSbj7VW

Jeong Jae-ui stopped talking about what he was thinking. He is lost in thought for a moment and mutters to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU42jC2x5dZ

"It won't do much good to run into each other.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG04GXSn5QB

"Why?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo5n7wjjvW

"He brought me here to keep me from being known, but you're here, at least someone, including you, knows about me.....''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnHa46DAac

''...Lock you up, or torture you to see who knows, or both?''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeL9b2cOXy

''There's a possibility of that.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNE2OrlwJ9

''Then what can I do?''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDUFpo8lXv

''You'd better get out of here before he comes back.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9uZhLbpKt

"What about you?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5eerEDpBd

When Jeong Tae-ui asked, Jeong Jae-ui looked puzzled. Jeong Tae-ui soon realized when he saw the face. Jeong Jae-ui was not locked up. He liked this soft, serene space and was staying on his own volition.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtJEp5FkVS

Jeong Tae-ui scratched his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AsIffzLwZ

''Yeah... then I'll go back alone. Since I saw your face.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvXPrAjp37

Many people, including his uncle, will be sorry if he goes back alone, but in the first place, Jeong Tae-ui did not visit him to take Jeong Jae-ui to them. It was simply because he himself wanted to meet him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1LGW8X71q

However, Jeong Tae-ui's walk, which was about to go out saying, "Then, bye, hyung." was blocked on the way.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVFfXFUPsT

He couldn't leave this annex. It is a house located separately in one corner of the spacious annex. Far from being outside the villa at all, it could not be transferred to the main house or other buildings in the villa. This detached house was entirely isolated.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sP36o3QuO

There was only one door leading to the outside at the end of the western corridor, and in front of it, a man with a large knife stood guard. Looking down at the knife, which had traces of hand-written writing, Jeong Tae-ui soon remembered the gatekeeper man. He is the Arab who hit his stomach last night.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5el3at84v

"I want to go out. Let me out of here.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuDzIxsDvm

As Jeong Tae-ui said, the man only stared at him and did not move. He just tried to open the door by turning sideways, but when Jeong Tae-ui tried to grab the doorknob, the man lifted the knife and knocked on Jeong Tae-ui's wrist and blocked it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATCcyZCiky

When Jeong Tae-ui, who returned to Jeong Jae-ui without a reason, told the situation, Jeong Jae-ui nodded strangely. As expected, it's the same pitch.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rUogFflg0

"I don't know because I've never tried to go out, but I think there's a strict limit to the people who can enter this annex. Still, if I say I want to go to a night market, they give me permission. Although I make sure to tighten my body with the chador.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3FHTwOHQF

"But why are they blocking me? Because I'm not going to the night market? Because I don't wear chador?''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMEE4I1DbL

"Maybe they've already reported about you and something has been ordered there.....The night market is held once a week, Tae-ui. And Chador, I don't think it'll look good on you.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJciwoGtVcD

It doesn't look good on you, either. It doesn't look good on you in the first place, there were several parts that I wanted to point out that chador was not made for men to use, but I closed my mouth. That is not the point. I sighed and scratched my head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt60F65Wi8H

''What is it, then? Am I locked up too? I can't go out?''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5hvF6V0ev

''That's what it looks like right now. Talk to him when Raman gets back in a few days. Maybe he'll let you go unexpectedly.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhDkBytRL3

"You said there's nothing good about meeting each other."'

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGXSQSxsXX

''There's nothing we can do about it in this situation.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EKrgOi5LJ

"Then what if I get trapped or tortured?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQukB5eOdsE

''Hmm...There'll be a number.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAkmiCSOsH

Jeong Jae-ui's intentions were as plain as they could be. Jeong Tae-ui stared at his brother and eventually breathed a sigh. It'll work out somehow. It's not just yesterday or today that it's a tough sell anyway. In addition, in the worst case scenario, he thought about taking the Arab hostage and getting out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lPMCJO6Zy

The Arab man, Raman Abid Al-Saud, was told he was in poor health. It is said that due to his weak health, he usually lives in a separate house and rarely appears in public.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlQvJQ85i9

Jeong Tae-ui felt a little guilty while thinking about it. Even now, it is a little cowardly and cheap to think about taking a person who has returned to his home country as a hostage because he goes to the hospital regularly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1bSfqPSx3

But his life comes first.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRxzN1CGUj

Jeong Tae-ui was forced to sit down in the annex where Jeong Jae-ui stayed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVANm273qa

One day like that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkseZ1uIyUo

Jeong Tae-ui understood Jeong Jae-ui's mind. After spending just one day not thinking that he wanted to leave, he came to understand it well.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2tmiWIekE

This quiet and tranquil space was like heaven. Moreover, it is probably a better space for Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoT6wEfBKj

Originally, Jae-ui, who likes to stay quiet alone without going out to a crowded place, was a perfect place for him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiP6OCWlw6

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly saw Jeong Jae-ui with his eyes wide open because the blue sky was dazzling.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64kBED44Ax

This annex is the only place he stays. But this open prison is not a prison for him. Here, where he could stay in peace, he would have been spending these days every day. Read a book leisurely, meditate, or get lost in some more complex thoughts.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AVfe5sI5k

Jeong Tae-ui laughed. This man was not unfortunate anywhere. It was fortunate that it wasn't possible. No matter where he was or how long he hadn't heard from Jeong Jae-ui, he was fine.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRqGwhhqEv

"By the way, hyung."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LxrwUJ9en

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly opened his mouth. He thought of something to say. Maybe he doesn't know what to say. However, even to his brother, Jeong Tae-ui had to let him know that he knew something. He didn't mean to blame it, he just thought his brother should know. Jeong Tae-ui opens his eyes loosely, looking at the dazzling blue sky again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAZLwtqwlG

He didn't look away from the bookshelf, but a quiet answer came back. Yes, and...

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBvifJDBNx

"What do the people who locked you up want?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQzgeS2yi6

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCAw0kxxKT

The answer didn't come back. However, instead of answering, the gaze came. Jeong Jae-ui's gaze fumbled over his face, staring only at the sky.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnbjuujJQm

Perhaps the answer could continue to be buried as it is, so Jeong Tae-ui opened his mouth again. From the tip of his tongue, which he hesitated for a very short time, a quiet word came out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVq7Z3SemH

"Do they want you to make a weapon?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuHAuMGpbe

".......How did you know?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4LOwyxqrY

There was a sound of covering the book still, almost as if it could be heard. And Jeong Jae-ui remained silent for a while as if he were lost in thought.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FpP8xtqTE

Jeong Tae-ui knew that Jeong Jae-ui always knew more than he expected. Perhaps by now, Jeong Jae-ui is thinking of someone who would have helped Jeong Tae-ui come here after Jeong Jae-ui's whereabouts, or what he might have heard from him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXAnsRXSVz

And he's probably thinking about things that Jeong Tae-ui can't think of.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIbP1b8NQk

"I saw it underground in UNHRDO. I heard you made it. It was beautiful."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOewpVrJap

"That's you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYxLLHLtTK

Jeong Tae-ui stopped talking. Then he tilted his head and looked at Jeong Jae-ui's face, which looked upside down. Jeong Jae-ui said calmly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflGeWUdq0Z

"Didn't uncle tell you? It's not complete, but you can change the design to make other things. I made it the most painstakingly before leaving."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxQO1Egcle

"Yes." Jeong Tae-ui murmured. Then he slowly got up and sat down. He fumbles over the fruit basket, picks up whatever he can get his hands on, puts it in his mouth, and murmurs in thought. This is apricot. It probably won't come out around here, but he saved it well.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEomsLR8Jog

"......There was nothing to hide. If you did it on purpose, you didn't have to keep it a secret from me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8n37Ag96h

Jeong Tae-ui murmured to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2C9dgQX2M

Actually, he wanted to say that. If Jeong Jae-ui had something to say to him or felt ashamed of himself, it was unbearable for Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJuUXUOngU

No matter where Jeong Jae-ui did, he would protect him until the end. Just as the politician would, no relationship could reveal everything. Tae-ui also had a few things he didn't want to tell Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjKdqhNvjr

So it's okay if he doesn't tell himself everything, too. It didn't matter if there was anything else hidden.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1FcLnMEga

But if he feels sorry for himself for that, that's not what he wants.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecxvMc2q9X

"Actually, it's nothing to feel sorry for or hold back from me......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8DeaZcjkg

It is clear that Jeong Tae-ui will not be happy with his making of weapons, but there is nothing to be sorry for him. Although he can feel guilty in a more fundamental way. And Jeong Tae-ui didn't want him to make weapons because of that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXz72TCsUH

Jeong Tae-ui heard Jeong Jae-ui sigh.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CrfeKQhxA

Jeong Tae-ui realized then. What Jae-ui really didn't want to say was what he was asking, rather than the weapons development case. And Jeong Tae-ui could immediately see what he was asking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4bjVjGy84

Lucky genius. The source of that controversial luck. But still, Jeong Tae-ui can't understand, perhaps no one can understand, whether his lucky roots are quietly buried in the dirt or already dug by someone.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4NdTnIGrB

"I will."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IDsIpj20K

When he opened his mouth to speak out, Jeong Tae-ui coughed a little because he felt uncomfortable. Perhaps by this time, Jeong Jae-ui had already realized what Jeong Tae-ui had to say. Jeong Tae-ui remained silent a little longer and continued his talk.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrwNnj2AjK

"You give me good luck. I heard that. Not from uncle, though."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJkuq3gVAH

After speaking, Jeong Tae-ui raised his gaze toward the fruit basket. Looking forward to his quiet face as always. There was a very dim, yet unperturbed face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUEyONwDFM

"......Then who?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoE6eJfbwBj

"Oh, Ilay...It's a guy named Ilay Riegrow, and he said he'd met you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnTT9IEraO

Jeong Tae-ui didn't want to see Jeong Jae-ui's face, so he tried to change his words quickly. Jeong Jae-ui seemed to have immediately remembered the name without thinking for a long time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOBGOrUcj2

"I see. T&R's......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJKVzA3qMW

Jeong Jae-ui nodded. Looking at him, Jeong Tae-ui suddenly remembered the man whose name was on his lips.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqPBOEpfrN

Ilay Riegrow.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA6Pfx4PRN

Is he looking for me now? While he was away for a while, I went out on my own and he got very angry, saying that my whereabouts had become unknown.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXolxJYyyC

But it won't be long. It was easy for him to guess the whereabouts of Jeong Tae-ui. Asians like Jeong Tae-ui were rare in Seringue. If he looks for him, which he remembers seeing Jeong Tae-ui walking around like Jeong Jae-ui, he will find him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5VpV2jPFs

Then, should he come here to find me?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ycfd5xwO3

While thinking about it, Jeong Tae-ui frowned. Even if Jeong Tae-ui pointed out that he was in the separate house of the Arab people like Jeong Jae-ui, he could not come to find him. The situation remained the same. It is the same as not being able to find Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWqskOjF54

In the southeastern part of Seringue, even in the area lined with the villa of the rich, they could not find Jeong Jae-ui, even though they assumed that it was in the villa of Raman Abid Al-Saud.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdwUTn90EW

In the middle of the Middle East, it was quickly found out where the separate houses of Saudi Arabia's royal family and rich people were gathered, but it was not known where he would be among the buildings divided into numerous separate houses in one huge fence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpa3aAp6Ix

Jeong Tae-ui once said, "Can we just hire mercenaries, wear masks, and enter each house by force?" Of course it was a joke.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZtfPmQNMl

However, a negative answer came back to such a ridiculous joke.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4D9e7eQQf

Of course, there are many armed guards attached to the annex where the royal family stays, and they said that they cannot penetrate from outside to inside unless they are all away. And even if they hire mercenaries, it is difficult to penetrate the annex, which is quite far from the entrance, unless they are very skilled.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qa62NgSrb

"Come to think of it, I was trapped with you...The whereabouts of me... have become unknown."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSzjAf2mPD

Jeong Tae-ui murmured and scratched his head as if he had realized it. This is it, he thought that it might be a serious problem beyond worrying that he would eat a lot of people if he went back later.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISDOTCKMYa

If he can't expect rescue from the outside, he has no choice but to get out of the inside, but he's trapped like this.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Cu9t8RNEm

"What should I do?" Jeong Tae-ui thought about it quite seriously. It was unlucky enough for Ilay to think that he ran away, even those who witnessed him going to the night market with Shinru. This time, he really didn't know if he would die if he got caught.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv952x5H2gW

No, no, I didn't go with Shinru.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw3TMCRK40

Jeong Tae-ui slipped his hand awkwardly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rVkHQbb0o

What if he asks me what I'm doing? It's too complicated and long to talk about. In addition, I didn't want to say that my life was entangled in a dangerous state due to the passion between men. (Yeah, that's the point, for instance. Some things Jeong Tae-ui doesn't want to do to Jeong Jae-ui.)

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4EhEtW2Rx

However, Jeong Jae-ui did not ask such a question. He only looked at Jeong Tae-ui silently with thoughtful eyes. He spoke slowly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvHnqynONo

"When I heard that you were my luck..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEdn4sKcGE

However, his words, which came out of silence, were interrupted.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCbLQg5ySC

At first, Jeong Tae-ui could not recognize who he was. He couldn't even guess.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qahp9Hd86

Of course. He has never seen him before.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrAuT1e7Me

The man stood on the stairs and on the corridor behind the annex.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5qMpIzkar

When Jeong Jae-ui suddenly stopped talking while opening his mouth, he realized that his gaze had shifted over his shoulder, and Jeong Tae-ui looked back curiously. And he found an unfamiliar face there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FKXDvqUCl

The Arab man, dressed in white sand-colored clothes, was looking down at them sitting in the courtyard under five steps of stairs.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFN6YgZRGT

After that, a man rushed in. It was a man standing in front of the door. Perhaps that Arab man walked in without hesitation first without waiting for the man to stick next to him and follow him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14aAz3YvZh

It was difficult to guess the age of the face with a drought angle. The only dark eyes that were coldly closed without being able to look inside at all, were telling him that he was not a little young.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nusfkCWf9

He opened his mouth. Low and thick bass flowed out. Upon understanding the words that Jeong Tae-ui couldn't understand, the man next to him nodded and said something to him again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw3oHwCtD1

The expressionless and dark eyes that looked at Jeong Tae-ui soon fell behind Jeong Tae-ui. Perhaps the gaze toward Jeong Jae-ui stopped there for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x2UbQA0du

The man slowly came down the stairs. Whenever the slow and heavy steps approach one step at a time, a sense of pressure comes along as if the air freezes heavily.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSU7XKV1f8M

Jeong Tae-ui did not look away from him, but turned his head slightly and asked Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCwsBfKLE2

"Who is this guy?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqTaduFXDw

When Jeong Tae-ui whispered, the man raised his eyebrows a little displeased. Perhaps he doesn't like the language that he can't understand, as Jeong Tae-ui said.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YgojJUiBs

It didn't seem like a marketer. No, there is no way a man like this could be a marketer. If this man was a marketer, it was clear that the owner would be cut off his neck and robbed soon.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5M3dY5bfFS

Then, is it a watchman or security?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1CWdD7X1w

He took a glance at the man, but he couldn't see anything that could be a knife or weapon. But maybe he's hiding a gun under the hem of his clothes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeiYQZbAEy

Suddenly, Jeong Tae-ui thought a little out of context.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEYSgV3puv

Certainly, if such a commanding man is staring at the eyes of a watchman, he may not even think of running away from here. Right now, Jeong Tae-ui alone must have agonized more than twice as much to attempt to run away if such a man was under watchman.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE8LizdBXr

The answer to Jeong Tae-ui's question soon returned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1g0fPqsd3

It was not the answer that came back while answering Jeong Tae-ui. Since Jeong Jae-ui called the man, Jeong Tae-ui could tell who he was.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XIKqemkJ6

"Raman. You came early."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQAcCOcu0w

Unexpectedly, but perhaps others thought it was plain as usual. At the words of Jeong Jae-ui, Jeong Tae-ui knew the man's name.

Raman.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPOeOfFxrM

Jeong Tae-ui, who briefly gave Jae-ui his gaze with a surprised face, looked back at the man again. Before he knew it, the man who came down the stairs and took a step into the courtyard stopped a few steps away from them.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XxEr0jrXn

"This guy is..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmtDKVQAjZ

"I'm Raman Abid Al-Saud. Do you like it here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR714Jr12U6

Even before Jeong Tae-ui could speak properly, the man spoke in English that could be heard clearly. The thick bass, leading to British pronunciation, contained a slightly soft light, unlike when he spoke to a watchman standing up there a while ago. It wasn't just a language difference.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiP3kF9jWB

The expression is the same. The face, which was cold enough to feel the freshness, reminded me of a calm smile.It's like a different person.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSR4T3tmoRr

".......I'm Jeong Tae-ui. It's a very nice house."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNsE2ttXSR

Which one is the real face of this man? That cold, stern face, and a gentle smile as he welcomed the guest in the house.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYlc13ao4f

"Jeong Tae-ui. Oh, I guess you're younger than me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTB8RAGXMY

Raman, a man who seemed to be thinking for a while, nodded Jeong Tae-ui's name once again with a rare clear pronunciation and gave Jeong Jae-ui an eye. Jeong Jae-ui nodded.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR7gYTUJks

"You're unusually early this time. Did something happen to your home country?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOE5LHIDHv

"No, I'm not. I put my work aside because I heard there was an unexpected guest here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RUazjSPiQ

Raman looked at Jeong Tae-ui with wrinkles around the corners of his eyes. Jeong Tae-ui murmured, "I don't remember coming here at all to be a guest." and looked at the watchman behind him for a moment. To be exact, he was brought in just last night while he was knocked out of his stomach.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9qEneWigp

However, even if he appealed, there was no way that this man, who would have brought Jeong Jae-ui in a similar way in the first place, could have heard it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM90fGS7btp

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41SxbNv8ps

Jeong Tae-ui stared at the man who exchanged brief greetings with Jeong Jae-ui. Then he made a slight frown.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ9tbsAF94

Who the hell is this guy, who said he is a sick guy. Was it Gable? It was Gable, right? How can he call this man infirm with his excellent intelligence that he first found a clue to where his brother is?! No, I don't know. He may look healthy on the outside, but he may have an underlying disease. Yeah, and he also goes to the hospital regularly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q0qZlSYTp

While convincing himself like that, Jeong Tae-ui felt depressed that the plan to take this man hostage and threaten him to get out of here should be abandoned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBhJxrtfv3

The man, who did not know what Jeong Tae-ui was thinking next to him, had not given him any attention since he first said a few words. He said such ceremonial words, such as, "Is there anything wrong with your body, is there any inconvenience in staying, and if you need anything, tell me whenever you need it." Then, as if it were a series of greetings, he continues his speech in a casual tone.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhi172Wj6hT

"Have you considered accepting my offer?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhRJ0l4HYF

Very subtly, it's a slightly more gentle voice. It is a low and friendly voice that makes you wonder if a wolf will speak in that voice when he deceives a sheep and tells a clever lie.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQLh532KJY

However, no matter what voice he spoke in, Jae-ui shook his head still as if he was not impressed. The man continued without showing disappointment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1F5UfK2AL

"One type, one type is enough. I won't ask too much. Just slightly better performance than the anti-tank guns on the market today. What we need is more than weapons themselves. Of course weapons are very important weapons touched by Jeong Jae-ui.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS0RbTbksW

"Since when did Jeong Jae-ui become a famous weapon brand?" Jeong Tae-ui thought to himself. Jae-ui's gaze flew in as if the idea had been conveyed. Jeong Tae-ui turned his head as if he didn't know.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkNhjADZJB

"I don't intend to make any more weapons."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc08Ykf2Ooq

He heard Jae-ui's answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9z2dT7l34

"Even if you can't get out of here until you accept my offer?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgKXnzu5NS

That's not an offer, it's a threat. It's not a threat that he deserves.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvKJ66fAym

Turning his head and looking at the birds on the branches, Jeong Tae-ui clicked his tongue inwardly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWGDXIBY13

Fortunately, however, he did not appear to be a bad kidnapper. In order to fulfill their demands, they do not use harsh methods such as putting Jeong Jae-ui in a dark and damp dungeon and giving him nothing to eat.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3i6pm2bgI

Of course, no matter how great the environment is, if he can't get out of it, the prison was a prison, but not only for the character Jeong Jae-ui. He wasn't a figure who wanted to roam around widely outside if only the least he needed was met.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtxBuszebW

"If you accept the offer, we will release you here soon. Not only that, of course, but also there's a corresponding reward."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUzKMiItvz

Raman added, but no answer came back. Jeong Jae-ui shook his head without saying a word.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4AWAlLhqG

There was a moment of silence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6tj4eSwvY

But as if it had been a series of conversations so far, Raman nodded as if he knew it would be the case.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZCrgVqoJI

"That's too bad. I'll ask you again after you change your mind. Please let me know whenever you change your mind."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1MT6rU8kO

Jeong Jae-ui still nodded vaguely, without answering.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHjJkWTIgs

If he makes a weapon, it doesn't seem like he's looking for a complicated and massive weapon. He will get it out of here right away.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlTGBF5iI6

He thinks it's a very good situation. If he falls as much as he wants in this heaven and enjoys a leisurely life as he wants, and if he is tired of this life, he can draw a proper design and leave. Of course, there should be a premise that that determination not to make any more weapons will be broken.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7pnw0XrzW

"Then this is your brother....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJcw2vWNYM

Raman, who seemed to conclude the story, suddenly changed the subject. And Jeong Tae-ui, who popped up in the topic, turned his head with hesitation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWPopzeuxQ

"Oh….me?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub1XeQr3lb

Jeong Tae-ui, who pointed at himself with a big smile, wondered why this man called him. But when he thought about it, he had something to say to him. He wants to get out of here, so he has to tell them to let him out. Anyway, he was not worth the use of weapons like Jeong Jae-ui, so he could have let him go.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkdtKlBgcw

"How did you know this place?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYagACsimNg

Raman asked with a smile. It was a gentle smile, as if it were a welcome visit.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmOpZqvuaz

Jeong Tae-ui smiled at him. He thinks it's difficult at heart. He has never been alive if he seems to be fooled by such a smile. Hasn't he survived UNHRDO unharmed by only his senses?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaIpFN7ykN

"I don't know where this is."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9Uub33U5L

Jeong Tae-ui answered politely. Raman raised his eyebrows. Jeong Tae-ui said something behind his back before he said anything.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJsoqy5EHL

"I don't remember after I went to the night market on Bahep Street and met my brother by chance and fell down after being hit. Then I woke up and found myself here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4nAyZFj7G

Jeong Tae-ui pointed at the watchman behind him with his finger. The man opened his eyes a little wide when the arrow returned to him, but remained silent with a face that was not very embarrassed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksO7OBfXxB

Raman glanced back at the watchman and said a few words again, unintelligible. It was like asking something. Then he answers with his head down. Raman nodded and turned to Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBckiHGr8fA

"I see. The night market on Bahep Street......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEqnLArVAC

Suddenly he laughed. The wrinkles at the tail of the eyes became thicker.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlMXCcQ1WH

"Did you come to Seringue with your friends?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NmhQHOs6f

"Ah......No, I'm here to find my brother. I couldn't reach him at all."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRbelzUSXu

Jeong Tae-ui thought about it for a few seconds, but he answered gently. If he says, "I accidentally came to Seringue, an unknown island on the east coast of Africa, and I happened to bump into my brother again here.'' there is no one to believe.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ2xrZpuRZ

It was only a matter of time anyway.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazHKQ2Q9Kg

It will take less than a few hours to find out where this Asian, who is rarely seen on this island, is staying with whom, and what the companions are doing. No, he didn't know that the investigation was already written and was now crossing the door of this annex.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku5CGaLe2L

A companion. Gable and Ilay.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQViKRwqwJD

Jeong Tae-ui is ready to give an honest answer right away if Raman asks, "Who did you come with?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFvQ4DGbiz

He thought he could tell him that he came with Ilay without hesitation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lal1yWlf0

If the person who is looking for Jeong Jae-ui's whereabouts was also trying to catch him, saying, "I can't leave him alone." Gable might be like that, but at least he was never worried as much. However, Raman did not ask Jeong Tae-ui who his companion was. After looking straight at Jeong Tae-ui for a while, he only asked back like this.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3esdwjL5Oi

"How did you know he was in Seringue?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzamQNL7Ae

Well...I've only been told, but it's someone else who actually found it. But I hear he's had a hard time, too. They were rather curious about the sudden loss of his whereabouts in Varanasi. How could you hide his tracks so neatly and drag him along?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFeasRFEXi

Raman only raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not answer that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFSeteQKV3

"In the forest of the world, it's many times easier to hide people than to find them. But...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKJgiKkAhv

Raman muttered so much to himself, touching his chin still. Rubbing the beard on his chin with the tip of his thumb, he stared at Jeong Tae-ui with thoughtful eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMh19vBz8C

At that moment, Jeong Tae-ui took a step back without realizing it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJutqVVcvM4

The glassy cold snow seemed to pierce the heart. The emotionless, cold eyes were weighing something coldly, as if they had put a chunk of meat on a scale. It was not long before he laughed. Rather than laughing, it was more like twisting the tip of the tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JWpeMPYPV

"I don't want the location to be known...I knew I wouldn't keep it a secret until the end, but at least I couldn't reveal my location. It's better to keep the people you know at a minimum."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaP7HMeEcw

The tone changed subtly. Jeong Tae-ui instinctively realized what the emotionless voice, which seemed to be frozen from the bottom of his heart, meant.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lvxdS7om5

Then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIMc7or9mJ

"If Tae-ui dies, I die, too."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdENKcReqr

It was Jeong Jae-ui who spoke quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnyxvnL87U

There was no solemnity, no tension, and no pity for the words that would be appropriate to be said solemnly. But it was not the light of threatening or pleading.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmHjLJOwnS

It was just a calm voice telling its own facts.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdf4y7CAFN

Raman shut up. His face was expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking. The soft smile that had been on their faces until a while ago had disappeared.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxR3Z3r5Kq

He slowly looked back at Jeong Jae-ui. Irritatingly, but still politely, asks.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L3AIoxqRJ

"Did you say you'd die if I killed this man?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0jVPU5YfP

Jeong Jae-ui nodded. The gaze touched Jeong Tae-ui's face for a while and then fell awkwardly. Jeong Tae-ui grimaced.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwy922MawS

Raman saw Jeong Tae-ui. For a moment, his expressionless face seemed to have brushed against him. It was a cruel and harsh look.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgDMRVKN1c

"If I kill this man, you will die......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlkmVm7c7r

Raman's low voice mixed with laughter. Walking one step closer to Jeong Tae-ui, he raised his hand. He tries to grab Tae-ui's chin.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeuW4rKEQT

Jeong Tae-ui reflexively took a step back. He rubs his own neck with a little shyness.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGXESSY0vS

Why are there so many people aiming for his necks these days? No, but he thought one would be less threatened with life, but he didn't expect someone else to come out looking for life.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEydktHPPdM

Jeong Tae-ui sighed and muttered useless words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthIFMn8X2b

"No, I can't die here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qi3boaqpO

Although it was not his will, Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue thinking that if he died after hiding his whereabouts in his own way, he would die by Ilay.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDErmXrSi6N

Raman did not seem to have any intention of chasing Jeong Tae-ui. Stop walking and raise his hand. And while staring at him, he turned to Jeong Jae-ui. Before he knew it, he had returned to that smiling face of the moment before.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2AtMmdtpp

"I'll be in trouble if you die. I won't touch him....But I didn't know he was so good that you said you would take your life when your brother died."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhdfipXJjP

"I'm not saying I'm taking my own life."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGIVBbf3e6

Jae-ui shook his head, saying, "That's not it." Then, he thought of it, and he looked at Jeong Tae-ui and said it as if he was making an excuse. However, Jeong Tae-ui nodded as if he understood his brother who hesitated, saying, "It's not that we don't get along well."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN023anCaC

"It's my luck."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxPYvrR2S1

Jeong Jae-ui left for a moment and concluded his sentence. There was a faint bitterness in his words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZonQO5oryL

"Gilsangcheon."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxc7tZwihz

Raman repeated the words. However, he did not seem to repeat it because he did not know the meaning of the words. There was no wonder in his gaze.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymDHBkAoXL

"I've heard that your brother gives you good luck, but if I kill him, you'll die too......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqjxNxVP36

"I'm lucky to be alive because I'm lucky to have him."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBsifjHgHo

Raman shut his mouth at Jeong Jae-ui's words. Maybe it was a little unpleasant.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdHfqAcBDM

But the next moment, Jeong Tae-ui suddenly saw a strange light rising above his face. It's a little different from a surprise. Jeong Tae-ui looks at the expression that seems to have remembered something important, or that he has realized, perhaps a quiet surprise.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6zJSuBZZj

"...?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCsIdeEgvG

It occurred to him that it was strange.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpBbFLY611

The frozen expression of that Arab man as if he had noticed something, and Jeong Jae-ui's silent mouth in front of him. It's as if the two of them are planning to hide something from Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVwKOJeUOi

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him suspiciously. But he was unlikely to say anything convincing. It seemed that the silence would continue. This strange atmosphere was somewhat unpleasant and strangely bitter, so he scratched his head a couple of times while smacking his lips.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjKf7D1SU0

"I feel embarrassed or uncomfortable listening to it...I'm grateful that you say it so nicely, but....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY248cG3mt

Jeong Tae-ui murmured without hiding his awkward face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHoE4147A9

Gilsangcheon. Jae-ui's Gilsangcheon. I've heard it many times so far. Without knowing the reason or the authenticity, I remembered the name as people around me called me.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AaWlXkmHc

However, when he heard that from Jeong Jae-ui himself, he felt awkward and embarrassed. Doesn't it feel like he's giving him even a tremendous favor?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vt58Gqiyx

However, Jeong Tae-ui blurred his words even before he could finish the last words. This is because he didn't know how to continue talking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHHPCxF7au

Raman looked at Jeong Tae-ui with his expression off. The cold glass-like eyes looked at Jeong Tae-ui's every corner of his head as if digging into his head, and then turned around.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2AUajmmdD

He turned away without saying a word. Following him, who climbed the stairs without saying hello and strode into the corridor, the watchman behind him also stepped back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bSi4FrrvW

Only Jeong Tae-ui and Jeong Jae-ui remained in the courtyard.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ911ZhmGhbE

Nothing changed before he came into this place. The wind was still pleasantly cool and the blue sky was dazzling. Even birds flying between branches and flowers that scatter the scent thick and light whenever the wind blows remain the same.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ob9yBxgEd

In this quiet and peaceful place, only two of them remained for the first time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWM6hynMShY

But it was no longer the same as before. It wasn't a quiet silence. It was a heavy and breathtaking silence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG48YGGCsUO

Jeong Tae-ui looked down at his feet. He was barefoot without shoes on. He also took off his feet following Jeong Jae-ui, who walked barefoot from the room to the corridor. He followed him wherever he went.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGw5MtkYxR

There was nowhere to hurt the soles of the feet. There was nothing to hurt the feet in the middle of a flat, smooth stone floor, no corridor, no room with soft lugs, or even a courtyard with bushes growing over soft soil. Even there was a careful hand, and there was no small stone hiding under the grass.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjIdK03KeH

He clapped his toes. The soil tickled his toes under the grass. Behind Jeong Tae-ui, Jeong Jae-ui sat on the spot where he sat earlier and opened the book again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1MqQqCSk8

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7FBkLNe48

Suddenly, he lost strength from his body. It felt like the tension that was tightly tied in his heart was loosening.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQD5DlVQP24

"What? I was the only one who felt heavy and suffocated."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhvXHAtBfS

Jeong Tae-ui muttered like a sigh, and fell down there. On the bushes, which are not far from Jeong Jae-ui, grass falls down regardless of whether the clothes are filled with grass. He hugged his knee and put one arm on it, and looked at Jeong Jae-ui drowsy.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUk3JlOBfo

As if nothing had happened, he was relieved to look at his brother sitting there for a long time as if he were always there. So, he suddenly asked. Without any hesitation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkwfOEHUQK

"Am I really your Gilsangcheon?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInxtH1II68

Jeong Jae-ui's gaze, which was looking through the bookshelf, briefly touched and fell. Jeong Jae-ui nodded silently. Fluttering, the bookshelf goes over one page.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkX4ONUn7Ul

"How come?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGGCDiLF1G

This time, the gaze did not come. Just as he focused on the book and couldn't hear it, the answer didn't come back. However, Jeong Tae-ui waited quietly. Then he knew that the answer would come back soon.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDBLPAeF02

Soon after, Jeong Jae-ui opened his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfaRwNyQCE

"Just because."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mKgJB2Bs8

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg2wI09TWL

Just one answer came back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZHjibyzqL

Jeong Tae-ui's shoulders lost strength. He managed to calm himself down and murmured, "Hey, hyung, it's me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsmcTj0IWO

However, to Jeong Jae-ui, who returned silently, Jeong Tae-ui waited calmly this time. He doesn't think the answer will come back even if he goes throughout his life, so he threw out the words he had picked up in the past.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJNDyEWdkG

"When I was young, you were sick too?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwVJscLW1y

"That could be a basis, but it's not a reason."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWf7oDlJAUn

"Then what's the reason? If I'm sick, you're sick, so I'm giving you luck, this is too unscientific."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp56DPcLbZ

Originally, science is nothing more than a collection of common results of countless experiences."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaXf3Ypujn

"...No, I mean..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9JL52CdQb

Jeong Tae-ui clicked his tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7BQ4wTAKg

His brother was not a bad listener. Rather, when Jeong Tae-ui threw a word, he was the one who pointed out what he didn't want to know.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5bid2ceHt

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmThRMVUvzb

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly sighed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0IbGuznhG

He just raises his head as he crouches down and looks at the sky. The sun was slowly starting to fall past the highest point above its head. After a few hours, the day will be over again, and today will be submerged in darkness. Like every day.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PPY7AWKIY

There was nothing great. There was nothing to change. In the end, there was no great problem in this world. But whether Jeong Tae-ui is Gilgangcheon or not, what does that matter? He doesn't know if misfortune comes from him, but if luck comes, that is good. It was a good thing. If he didn't want to talk, it wasn't important enough to force him out and get an answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRPbSryAjA

Jeong Tae-ui shook his head alone. And sighs and smiles.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP7I6FFj4q

"Tae-ui, you're quick to catch on. You've been like that since we were young. Should I say that I have a good feeling?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ9paElplv

At that time, Jeong Jae-ui opened his mouth. Put a bookmark and cover the book, giving Jeong Tae-ui a look. Jeong Tae-ui slightly frowned at the smiling face. He thought it didn't matter if a person didn't listen at all.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlmThbYqga

"Me too."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbLkSLJHj9

He said so and shut up again. And as if he were seeing a stranger for the first time, he slowly looked at Jeong Tae-ui. Slowly from head to toe. As if to find someone he doesn't know in it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP43dOZpdA

Jeong Tae-ui opened his eyes slightly wide. He lowered his gaze and looked still at his hand over his knee. It was a hand that had been attached to the body since birth and was always together, but it looked exceptionally unfamiliar. It looks as unfamiliar as Jae-ui in front of him now. Maybe he looks like that even in his eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSUh7ESVss

Jeong Tae-ui gave him another look.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14URPFVp0L

But he was Jeong Jae-ui. It is another static that Jeong Tae-ui loves, or does not even recognize that he loves. He laughed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PqUd0QtfH

"The reason is too poor....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxTY8p8jkd

Jeong Jae-ui also smiled faintly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy87fyxNF8

As if he had finished what he had to say, he stood up. Jeong Tae-ui also stood up and followed the slow and light steps up the stairs passing by Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeNmjkkOKy

There is soil on the white and smooth stone. Walking along the traces, Jeong Tae-ui looked at the back of Jeong Jae-ui, who was going five steps in front.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGSOI0JWno

The backside was straight and straight as always. Just as his sexuality is.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLavVHuXmKV

This place was completely blocked from the outside.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10i6zDLudO

Although there were eight doors in total, one magnificent door in the middle of each of the four corridors and one small side door in the corner where the corridor meets, this annex was completely isolated and existed only as one.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR9PCmcqBj

The four magnificent doors were firmly locked, although they were certainly not decorative. The large iron door, which seemed to have to be rushed in by several generals, seemed to be impossible to open alone, even if it was not locked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXN3vqWIEH

The four side gates at the end of the corridor were divided into two branches. The door leading to the interior and the door leading to the outside. The door leading to the interior was in contact with the interior of the building, such as a bedroom or study. And all the doors leading to the outside were locked except for one.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsOBjhpkCK

One of them, even if he went out through the door leading to the courtyard, of course, it was not entirely outside. Although it was divided into high fences, the spacious courtyard, which did not feel closed, was a dead end space.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lyX3ZnILO

The other three doors, he doesn't know where each one leads, seem to be the door that goes out of this annex, but two places were locked. Not only was it locked, but the plaster was applied to the gap of the door, so the door itself was not allowed to serve as a door.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGqPh5P6vA

The other one. The only entrance left. There, the Arab man stood. He is the man who guarded the door while watching Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3uyRh5Vq8

Jeong Tae-ui could not know the purpose of the pond, which was squarely carved in the middle. He thought it was a pool, but he couldn't swim in the water that only came up to his thighs, and the water was too cold to think of it as a bathhouse, and the location was in the middle of the center. But that didn't mean to raise fish there. He lay down on his side and moaned with his hands flapping the water.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5G0PFYN0Q

He was in trouble. That was the only thought he had in his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKVcnUKTC3

Jeong Tae-ui has been spending time here for several days already. Until now, Jeong Tae-ui and Jeong Jae-ui have been trapped here. As Jeong Jae-ui had already been doing so for more than a few months, he led a life that seemed to be filled with water.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCKO7AqEow

In fact, Jeong Tae-ui could not do that. No, he wanted to live like Jae-ui if he could.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddHxQ4v6jE

As a matter of fact, he was exhausted. The day he spent relaxing his body and mind was so far away. The body that was chased by time and circumstances, and the spirit that was overworked by it, were willing to accept this quiet life.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN3G7RMgbS

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG9D52avXY

"I'm scared of him...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixSc064VOF

Jeong Tae-ui lay face down and buried his head on his arm. His arms were cool, his elbows in the water.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINNIO3YHMT

Ilay. Ilay Riegrow.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5TJ0qQOfa

What is he doing out there now? Once he was in a very, very bad mood, it was a good bet. However, it is a problem because he is a human being who will not only be in a bad mood.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK511Nb37gF

It was completely blocked from the outside world, so he couldn't hear from it. So he was more anxious.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eX3y0p1c2

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LiB3q8Vuk

Jeong Tae-ui hit the surface of the water with a slap and a palm. A couple of large red petals, floating above the water, waved along the waves.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCacT8JJrBm

"Ilay......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7vxCNCcYT

He spoke the name quietly. So small that he can't even hear it, like the sound of the wind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZuvepSgEi

Maybe it's a good thing.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZhBzHsXAM

He could get out of his hands here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKQ007LznJ

The same was true of Jeong Tae-ui, who is now on the same boat as Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqkvcCOn9G

If he is here, he can avoid the relentless pursuit, the constant insanity, the threat. It may be a little inconvenient because he can't go outside, but that's fine. If he could get away from that creepy, scary guy.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBNaRup8KS

"That's right. In a way, it went well. Perhaps it would have been nice to stay here with great joy for good fortune.....If I weren't for schizophrenia."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPbPdLyLCw

Jeong Tae-ui lowered his head again, which seemed to raise a little. Suddenly, his earlobes seemed to be warming up.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzb9XbQotu

Slowly, he pushed himself forward on his stomach and dipped his head in the water. Bubbles and bubbles leaking from the mouth tickled the cheeks and climbed to the surface.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KBW1PFHGE

Oh, my. This is ridiculous. Now that I can get away from him, why am I trying to get back there? Tae-ui, you're crazy. If I think about it, he might have just clicked his tongue a few times, saying, "He ran away again."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFczJr54hM

.......That can't be right.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkr4IzVZYyw

Then suddenly, a question crossed his mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItmTeAOV35

What does Ilay think he has about him?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UQdxb8Huv

"...Pu-Hap!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrtyOc67ia

Jeong Tae-ui raised his head. He couldn't hold his breath any longer. The water streamed down from the wet head. His neck and clothes quickly got wet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhytvJAybh

Jeong Tae-ui, who was breathing hard while touching the eye area with the back of his hand, found a foot standing next to him a couple of steps.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjzA5cWsdl

Jeong Tae-ui looked at his feet, feeling a foreign feeling for a moment. It was barefoot. A few steps ahead, he saw a strange foot. He was wearing leather shoes. Somehow, the bare feet and the feet hidden in the shoes looked so different.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnadRT2Cfi

When he looked up, there was a familiar face. It's a low-brow, but not friendly face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26yuCjDNC8

When he came to the detached house, the long-named Raman Abid Al-Saud stood there, with his usual gentle smile.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iishuliX6

"Oh... Since when have you been there?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNrQR7KFB8

Jeong Tae-ui squeezed the water out of his head and said, Raman answered briefly a while ago, and stared down at him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsMhupZOtk

He knew he came to the detached house. He saw him go through the corridor to the study. During the day, the main place where Jeong Jae-ui was located was the study or the courtyard, so he used to go to the nearby study first and then to the courtyard if Jeong Jae-ui was not there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTcaoTv19W

He used to visit the annex once a day and meet Jeong Jae-ui. However, it was not that he stayed for a long time or talked for a long time. There was always one major requirement.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4ZJer85G3

Did you feel like accepting my offer today?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrXlLhptj2

If you don't accept, you can't get out of here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb6rjCYjaO

If you accept it, we promise not only to let you out of here, but also to provide sufficient compensation to you.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D4Wz6u8c8

However, Jeong Jae-ui's answers to those words were always the same. Looking at the wits, it seemed that the questions and answers continued after Jeong Jae-ui was trapped here. So now Raman doesn't seem to be disappointed or angry, and if Jeong Jae-ui refuses, he would go back and tell him whenever he changes his mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzISraxZJjV

The same is true today. As he entered the study, he heard the sound of Jeong Jae-ui's greeting from afar, which is not different from any other time, and Jeong Tae-ui turned his attention and lay down next to Jung-jeong's pond. While Jeong Tae-ui rolled around and pointed out the structure of the corridor and dipped his head in the water, he seemed to have finished today's story.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5IkRLyJZq

Jeong Tae-ui faced Raman, who looked down at him without telling him what he was thinking, and removed the hair that was soaking wet and stuck to his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJmSIkBSP8

Is he angry because I dipped my head in the pond? Don't tell me it means anything religious.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIyI9dFxq2

Jeong Tae-ui opened his mouth with a smile.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92kcgybAfP

"You look scary......Don't tell me that while I'm dipping my head in here, you want to grab me and drown me?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHCmQpNH4x

When Jeong Tae-ui laughed jokingly, Raman raised his eyebrows and burst into a low laugh.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHkDZgCuAx

"You're really Jeong Jae-ui's younger brother. You have a good sense of humor. You look like him."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG4kyGrba2

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGXKOC8N40

Teeth for teeth, eyes for eyes, jokes for jokes. Or is he serious?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzK1LxqVO6

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him with white eyes, smacking his lips suspiciously. But he changed the subject without saying "joke" or "serious".

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4EFYs98FS

"How is it here, is it okay to stay here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6J1Sy9vTD

"Oh....I'm a little frustrated because I don't know what's out there, but I'm fine. It's very pleasant inside."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOtYU2EdAv

"That's a relief."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAu3Vz6HuX

Raman nodded and smiled.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNF0IMNciu

Looking at him like this, he even wonders if the man who tried to kill Jeong Tae-ui with a face without an expression recently is the same person as this person. The very next day, he thought it might be a dual personality, smiling softly and politely greeting him as if something had happened.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl30xI1375h

But after going through him for a few short days, he realized that wasn't the case.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gni4ug0r1

He was a man he didn't want to treat as much as possible unless he inevitably encountered him in a place like this.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0K3l3WC4Sg

Regardless of the meaning of evil or mean, he felt like his personality was completely incompatible with Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C4871V2Eo

In fact, Jeong Tae-ui already knew one person, who would be second to none if it were considered that human nature was evil or mean, or that human nature was a mess. Of course, he never had a good personality with him either. He was willing to tear the person's mouth open if someone said, "You guys have a good personality."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn6xbW0Asx

However, apart from that, there was something that made a man named Raman upset, similar to discomfort, when he was close.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmmrBUlIsN

If he thought about it, he didn't know why. He has never seen such a strange personality. No, he didn't even know that he was a human being who could be admired in many ways objectively. Nevertheless, subtly, this man is uncomfortable. Yeah, it looks very similar to discomfort.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHqYcxQJcG

"Why?" Jeong Tae-ui, who was thinking like that, quickly caught him, who seemed to turn around soon, perhaps because of a formal greeting.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNToh9Pcsh

"Oh, by the way."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02IQggwx24

However, he regretted it shortly after he caught him. He grabbed his sleeve without realizing it, and his icy eyes glanced at his hand. Quickly let go of his hand, he shook off his sleeve without saying a word, and his voice was still soft.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAZPIDeyVa

"Do you have anything to say?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxNhHIodxT

"I'd like to get out of here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE8AOVCiym

Jeong Tae-ui said so, even though he clearly knew the seeds wouldn't work. Perhaps Raman was in the same vein as going to Jeong Jae-ui every day to ask him to make a weapon, even though he knew clearly that he would be rejected.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOMGfeR5UX

Raman listened to him and remained silent for a while. He stops walking and looks down at him quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j6zFcWF4v

"You want to go out?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rrfd6rhJP

"Yeah. I'm....I've left something out there"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRRiNVyR6i

"Is it related to T&R's Ilay Riegrow and Ling Shinru, the son of Ling Hou Long, that it was left behind?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkj7rfBoFR

Jeong Tae-ui closed his mouth. Unfortunately, his mouth was distorted, but he soon regained his composure. Come to think of it, there was no way he didn't know. The time has already passed to remain even after completing the investigation into how Jeong Tae-ui came here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlluImLfzTS

Jeong Tae-ui looked straight at him and smiled.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCkP7hXpOp

"You know it well."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xd7YuBZoZ

"I met my home country friends at the mosque yesterday evening and talked for a while, and it became a hot topic there."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlFpqeCW16

Jeong Tae-ui raised his eyebrows. Raman raised the tip of his lips slightly as if smiling or drying.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRyTFaRWwe

"A friend of mine who visited this place for a vacation went out yesterday morning and was attacked by a man named Riegrow."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4y2F46EOz

"Bong..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1vtojtsKc

"He said he was looking for you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWvOOlrdCO

Raman's lips were raised a little more. However, the eyes, which are not very pleasant lights, rather close to the light of annoying look down without ever falling from Jeong Tae-ui. As if trying to find something in his face, he looked down on strange things such as snakes and reptiles.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIR3SeCfNn

The smile disappeared from Jeong Tae-ui's face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWCymvzpTF

He has received as many eyes as he can. It was so disciplined that it did not shrink to this extent.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6u4QAnvTr3

But this gruesome, obnoxious, yes, near-disgusting feeling of sinisterness was different from any threat Jeong Tae-ui has ever received.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpi8Z5ntpA

"He's looking for me......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCM9OrXvC03

"Of course, at that time, I was on my way back to Seringue because I had heard of an unwelcome guest in my house, but the poor fellow was wronged and had to get out of Seringue immediately because he was a Muslim with a detached house around here. There's no place around here that has such excellent medical equipment."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH0Ei1AfA5

"........"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZAEdTSNqk

"I've been told that unfortunately, my friends are afraid of the monster and are reluctant to go out. Who is he? So it was easy for me to identify who he was."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYSYtdQGdz

Raman made a slow conclusion. And he glares at Jeong Tae-ui with subtle eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjp1YjwMUC

"It was easy to recognize him because he was familiar with the rumor. T&R's untouchable jerk, Ilay Riegrow. If you're with that famous person, you don't seem to be as shabby and insignificant as you look."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTP70BL6AG

Raman's way of speaking has changed. A little lower, a little smoother. However, the faint smile did not change at all, creating a more faint displeasure.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxagqouqCL

"Don't think wrong. No matter how big it is, it is just a business. No matter how long it flies, it's just a small family that talks big in the East. Do you think they can affect me in any way? You're welcome. Even if they poke me somewhere else, it's not hard. If I put Jeong Jae-ui and you in a dungeon where no one knows, and pretend that I don't know, that's it. They went out on their own, I let them go, so to speak. Because you think they're gonna be able to walk into my house and dig? You're welcome. They can never do that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprPyA9Iu8r

Words that penetrated into the ear quietly continued without hesitation. Jeong Tae-ui looked at him without expression, without blinking once. Not a few steps away, he was looking at Jeong Tae-ui with an unhesitating gaze as much as Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxRnjdfivq

"This is Gilsangcheon......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHvuGIv6I9

Suddenly, a cold scornful voice came out. Cold and cruel eyes scan Jeong Tae-ui's face again. It's as close as hatred. But hate, there was no reason for him to feel that way. Wouldn't it be better if it was the other way around?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUemrnSqxp0

"You look nothing like Jeong Jae-ui. You ugly rascal, you give him luck? Funny. It's not funny either."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqAB2ne9jX

Raman spat out with his teeth. Then suddenly, he glares at Jeong Tae-ui with strange eyes and speaks softly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpN8cmsOqX

"How come he's like you......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtDUPvbCgp

It's more like talking to himself, not asking for an answer. He didn't have to answer, but Jeong Tae-ui looked at him silently and slowly opened his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bm6TkK8p3

"I don't know why it's me, and I don't think I'll give him that, so it's funny or not funny to hear...I don't want to hear it from anyone who's got that ugly bum."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgpREP2AME

Raman shut up. Then, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmCeevlj7G

Suddenly, he opens his lips as if he were smiling, and speaks very politely in a tone that goes back to the previous one.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVAP8L4X6K

"In conclusion, you can't get out of here. You can go out together when Jeong Jae-ui goes out. So if you want to get out of here, I want you to help me and convince him to accept my demands."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhAbdapiim

Raman said without hesitation. With that outspoken remark, Tae-ui realized that maybe he was going to say it from the beginning.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KsxY99kmw

His gaze was uniformly cold. Jeong Tae-ui looked at him without saying a word, wondering if there would be any heat in his eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK3PXZS5L0

"As you may have heard, I'm not asking too much of him. A weapon named after him, that's all. Of course, it's a lie to say that I don't expect anything great if he makes it himself, but if he makes it, it's not much different from an ordinary anti-tank gun."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWmCml1zLi

"...I don't know that his name has become such a famous weapon brand. Does anyone who confronts you hate the name Jeong Jae-ui?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUx6YDEwmQ

Raman laughed aloud as Jeong Tae-ui spoke softly, showing a disgusting look. Even when he laughed out loud, that gaze, which was always cool, was always bothering me.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCiRqM611Q

"You are not as quick to grasp the situation as Jeong Jae-ui. He's already figured everything out from the moment I first mentioned making weapons...What's important is those who can take Jeong Jae-ui's name to our army. To put it mildly, some of the warlords could easily be taken in."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbCX8k1P7k

Raman smiled joyfully and slightly leaned out to Jeong Tae-ui. With his face close to him, he speaks pleasantly by lowering the volume.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmfrLtaJeg

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him without blinking once.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIg33M5aD0

Indeed. What this man wanted was a weapon. It is a weapon named Jeong Jae-ui. Jae-ui handing over a new blueprint to him was like an implicit consent to hand over his name as well.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyz4agARPZ

Raman looked at every inch of Jeong Tae-ui's face as if looking carefully. Then he straightens his posture and smiles again with a soft smile as usual. The tone of saying, "Jeong Jae-ui is a rare, great talent." was also back to its original form.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y1safmNpS

......Hyung. I don't like this guy.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ9GzxEt1f

Jeong Tae-ui thought firmly at the moment. If there was Jeong Jae-ui next to him, he would have shouted so in front of this man. Considering the situation, in Korean.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOSM7RNVvS

Raman took a step back. It seemed like he was going back this time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2j8yWFSQ3

"As you may have heard, Jeong Jae-ui only needs to make a weapon. Then I'll get you and Jeong Jae-ui out of here immediately. So I hope you can persuade Jeong Jae-ui."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTbfHtMwnL

"I don't want to force him to do something he doesn't want to do."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbYvGqj07t

Raman raised his eyebrows. However, he shrugged and continued, saying, "At your convenience."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9uKTqqjpv

"You'll have to stay here until then, anyway. Feel free to tell me if there's anything uncomfortable....Oh, I see. For the time being, I'd like you to refrain from watching the night market in Bahep."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXVLbj5vGM

He smiled calmly and said so in a polite tone, and then turned away.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qk7wu4YAZ

Jeong Tae-ui stood there, walking toward the corridor on the west side and only looking at him coming out through the door at the end. Outside the opening door, he could see short trees as if they were garden trees. There was a glimpse of a wall covered with gray walls among the trees.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFery1e92FQ

"...I don't have a clue where I am."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVANBllU81E

Jeong Tae-ui sat down with a sigh after the open door was closed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrgnSp9iQh

No more water droplets fell from the hair soaked in water. It was still wet, so when he touched his hair, his hands were wet, but it wasn't to the point of dripping on the floor. He looked a little thin talking to that man.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MmOiVtpMw

"I don't like that guy. Raman Abid Al-Saud. I don't like that guy. Damn it, I'm gonna catch him like that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSUFJeM3EP

Jeong Tae-ui cut off the name and murmured, pronouncing it with strength. He glanced back to see if it was a watchman or a familiar face, but it was none of his business. If he wants to tell him, tell him. If he understands Korean.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3411qIUVXj

A friend of mine who visited this place for a vacation went out yesterday morning and was attacked by a man named Riegrow. He said he was looking for you.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSxLElEWJG

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rvkaZPPwl

Jeong Tae-ui hesitated and crouched his hand on the floor. He scratched the stone floor on his nails.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgHEsPAoOS

He said he was looking. Riegrow.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQj4qPJe3e

Suddenly his heart ached.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9t7zfNNZs

It seemed to show what kind of face he would have. He thinks he knows what kind of face he would have caught someone with.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz03N1OkrwK

He's looking for him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdZ9YQSnEw

The fact that he had already guessed, somehow knocked hard on his ear.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfW8lyzZ0e

"Uh..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl74g428oxt

Jeong Tae-ui raised his hand and put it on his hot ears. However, the well-received hands on the stone floor were of little help.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihonj5IgwF

Jeong Tae-ui lied down on the spot. Then, he slowly crawled toward the pond at his bedside, and put his head back in it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDXJqG4d34

I want to get out of here. Hurry up and do it a little bit faster.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1aq7aznF8

Jeong Tae-ui did not lose his voice even after dipping his head in the water for a long time to faint, so he couldn't move until the watchman approached and knocked on Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw4OkBi6Hv

What should I do to get out?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcqAeUi5g1

Jeong Tae-ui sat next to the pond, looked through himself with eyes as if looking at a lunatic, and thought while staring blankly at the watchman returning to the door.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFAQGlwzlH

But I couldn't think of anything. What should I do? How can I get out? It would be nice if there was a way to get out of here secretly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZSKWWpcge

"It must be hard."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRU5LD3w0ek

Without thinking for too long, Jeong Jae-ui replied.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kPMR9CwrE

"Uh......is that right? Is there anything else? In Islamic architecture, there's like a hole just in case......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS1CWgwCtJ

"When you build a castle or a building of some size, you can expect it, but you don't know if it exists in this simple villa, and even if it does, it won't be connected to this annex."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALMUtQBF4M

Jeong Jae-ui added seriously, "He's not a fool enough to lock people in a separate house with a hole, the owner of this place." Jeong Tae-ui muttered disappointingly, "Yes." and began to move his stopped hand again while wiping his hair with a towel. Jeong Jae-ui, who was looking at Jeong Tae-ui's expression, asked quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQmywzRTcF

"Do you want to get out of here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXx1AFKRNP

Jeong Tae-ui did not answer his low question.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5KFW2hRYJ

He wants to go out. And probably Jeong Jae-ui didn't answer immediately, so Jeong Jae-ui probably noticed the answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PKpF4V0ro

Jeong Tae-ui wanted to get out of here. Earlier, the same urgent impatience as right after hearing the short news outside had subsided to some extent, but in his mind, there was still a ripple of jutting, and anxiety.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUzbGx7rau

It's simple to get out of here. As Raman said, it is only necessary for Jeong Jae-ui to give him a proper blueprint as he wishes. Jeong Jae-ui clearly did not want to do so and said he would not intend to make weapons again, but he would nod if Jeong Tae-ui asked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8Im9dw3sv

But he didn't want to. He doesn't want to make Jeong Jae-ui do anything against his will because of his personal work.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYgag4LJOE

Jae-ui also knew that Jeong Tae-ui thought so, so he also knew that Jeong Tae-ui wanted to go out, but did not open his mouth first.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMzR3GGYUA

Jeong Tae-ui groaned with dissatisfaction and rubbed his head like a towel. It was almost dry now, so there was no more water to wipe off on the towel.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSPuQj4tUa

Jeong Tae-ui glanced at Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrwOcmBo24

He was sitting in a chair by the window next to one side of the study and listening to music. Raman, who said he would bring anything he wanted so that he wouldn't feel uncomfortable, saved it without saying anything if there was an album that Jeong Jae-ui wanted to hear or a book he wanted to read.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMZ3Oxcq49

Yeah, he wants to go out, but in fact, he might be much happier staying here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDin3wcfNcJ

Jeong Tae-ui hung a towel around his neck while washing his hair and looked around the study with a little tired of it. He still clearly remembers the surprising memory when he first entered this study. At first glance, it was a simple study. A large desk, a bookshelf, a chair by the window, the chair where Jae-ui is sitting now, a few ornaments on the shelf, a flowerpot where a small flower tree grew, sound equipment and countless albums on the other side of the bookcase.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtEQwKaRfP

That desk and bookshelf had been seen in the General Secretary's Office of UNHRDO. It may be the same thing, but it was very similar. And rumors circulating among the members said that the desk and bookshelf were equivalent to the cost of decorating the entire multimedia classroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbfcf8bspU

That chair, Yes, that chair where Jeong Jae-ui is sitting was seen at an exhibition of famous furniture artists abroad shortly after being discharged from the military. Looking at the catalog of the exhibition introduction, which was displayed in a booth with separate partitions at the last corner of the exhibition hall, it didn't seem to be just a feeling that it looked very similar to the chair that boasted an astronomical price.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaUknThaDS

Perhaps that's why, while those pots and ornaments looked unusual, Jeong Tae-ui lost his words in the last noticeable sound equipment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9SDkGKtlz

It cannot be said to be a mania, but Jeong Tae-ui was interested in sound devices as his friends were usually interested in cars and motorcycles. So he knew very well that just that speaker was about the price of a small apartment lease in a big city.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnQUIjYGpW

It was a very new realization, but the owner of this annex was the Arab royal family. Even if he is far away from the succession ranking, he is the one who holds oil money. Jeong Tae-ui, who thought that far, kicked his tongue disapprovingly, recalling Raman's face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GLwN88mrt

Indeed, he already said everything he had to say just to have a separate house of this size in such a place.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRz46L0Vw4

"I think people who bite a diamond spoon will have prejudice......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxKh23IvQ9

Come to think of it, it really is. Neither Ilay nor Shinru, nor the man named Raman, were all unsatisfactory.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK95DlLe3y6

"Or did his personality become like that because he has a lot of money?..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96inFqW8hd

Jeong Tae-ui shook his head while seriously considering the prejudice.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDWjMjGvTL

No. He shouldn't be prejudiced. Jeong Tae-ui grew up in his head from an early age because he was a victim of prejudice as his brother.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMQEvOphyQ

It must be strange to have such a smart personality, such a smart personality that there must be social problems, and if he is so smart, he must be an unlucky human being anyway, he couldn't understand just by hearing those words accidentally.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycHHwCo3uJ

So he tried not to listen to general prejudice. When he thought of a human being called Raman, his prejudice seemed to deepen.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9NqKWA8Tu

Jeong Tae-ui sighed as he sat comfortably in a chair that was on par with the price of the house and looked out the window.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sLlXBs375

He thinks it's good. In any case, he was providing the best convenience to Jeong Jae-ui. At least, he did not perform violent treatment, whether environmentally or in action, to fulfill his needs. It must have been a happy life for Jae-ui to live quietly, studying books or things he wanted to read and study as he wanted, in a situation where anything he wanted came into his hands.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqsiz3Cws8

Jeong Tae-ui sat on the floor and held his chin on his arm over his knee and looked at Jeong Jae-ui still. And then he murmured.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr06rzsF0uL

"What if that man gets tired of waiting like that and runs around saying he'll cut your neck if you don't make it right away?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqqGCquFSy

Jeong Tae-ui recalled the eyes that he could not read. He didn't think he was such a hot-tempered person. But if that happens, what will Jeong Jae-ui do? Should he nod because there is nothing more precious than life?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGixCWfjsIH

He has never thought about it, but Jeong Jae-ui, who Jeong Tae-ui knew, was unlikely. After thinking for a while with an indifferent face, he thought it would be most like Jeong Jae-ui to suggest an alternative that would satisfy both.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD3niaUdmR

Even if he rushed to cut his throat, he would save his life by suddenly breaking the blade.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz9JFt6ZTu

Jeong Jae-ui shook his head at Jeong Tae-ui's words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxQoVM1UzA

"He's not such an emotional or hot-tempered person. He is patient, very meticulous, and cold. He's a person who can kill and wait as long as he wants to get what he wants, so you don't have to worry about that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5Yxxa6V9t

Jeong Tae-ui recalled Raman. And he looked back at what Jae-ui said, who would have seen him longer than he did.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhd6emYXBB

Then someone suddenly comes to mind, sighs and mutters to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoXSB30ajb

"It's the complete opposite of someone."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5kAUAlEhb

Jeong Tae-ui knew a person who did not hesitate to tear a person to death immediately as soon as the blood boils, as his feelings said.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVizWqZfhUf

As soon as he remembered him, Jeong Tae-ui wiped his head and rubbed it with a cold towel. Thinking of the face that would be running around madly somewhere outside the fence of this annex, Jeong Tae-ui closed his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3twtl1xCq0

He thought it was okay to hide here as it is. Yes, it might be better to enjoy a quiet and quiet life here, locked up but a little bit unfortunate, than to live next to the madman.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrKY3C53q2

A man named Raman always talked about a dungeon, but considering his attitude of taking money to provide for him and treating him sincerely as a valuable guest for Jeong Jae-ui, who doesn't know how long he will stay, it wasn't likely. So it would be nice to live a comfortable life with his brother in this small paradise.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalVAzafXbL

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEm1lAq7bD

Still, I should go out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbIlYeAZGv

That's what he thought.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXxlbUQ5XN

Jeong Tae-ui clenched his fist with his hand holding his chin in his hand because of the nervousness that rose again from his chest. Then, he murmurs softly, saying, "My cheek is scratched by my fingernail."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02uRsNGMMo

Jae-ui was looking at Jeong Tae-ui silently and asked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDbaLjUhSf

"Who's the opposite?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICqRsCqs1E

"Hmm? Uh...Ilay....Riegrow."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiKD5hE7Y0

For some reason, it was hard to say the name right away. Jeong Tae-ui slowly said the name only after taking a break from the monster-like man and Jeong Tae-ui's story, no matter how scary he was, no matter how genius he was.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6osjEFVOVF

Jeong Jae-ui nodded.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc9YYCDJki

"Ah. Kyle's younger brother......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsv9eEnxoM

Jae-ui said so and shut up again. He kept his mouth shut for quite a while after that. Jeong Jae-ui, who had been silent while Jeong Tae-ui, who had become awkward for nothing, said little, opened his mouth after considerable silence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH95bgWdCdP

"If it's him, I've seen him.....Tae-ui, did you get close to that person?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoW87sMHLT

His careful words made Jeong Tae-ui feel very complicated. He doesn't think they're close enough to hear that they're close. And also, he didn't want to hear that they were close.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aHmdOFlfk

If he's asking if he's close without knowing what kind of human being Ilay Riegrow is, he doesn't know again, but if he has seen him, Jeong Jae-ui must have figured out what kind of person he is.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0mIn8ct9m

But he's asking if we're close. Isn't that too much?....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM8178DaEf

Jeong Tae-ui felt disappointed by Jeong Jae-ui, but soon changed his mind. Perhaps, unexpectedly, Jeong Jae-ui and Ilay had a short meeting that made a good impression in their own way. Kyle introduced him and greeted politely.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzo9y8omJP

"No, we're not that close, but......How did you meet up with Ilay?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDzpqRUoxp

"Hmm....It was time for T&R to make a gun and test-fire a prototype, but he fired at me, saying he was curious about my luck."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab8wEhe3RH

When Jeong Jae-ui said something that seemed insignificant, Jeong Tae-ui looked at him in shock.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJcDFRyhXe

Ilay Riegrow, he didn't know his temper, but he didn't know he would have done that. Besides, it's kind of weird to ask him if he's close to this brother who talks about it calmly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjK8Z2PSUI

"We're not close. We're not close. He's so impatient that he can eat me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtE6WLY7AlX

Jeong Tae-ui waved his hand. It wasn't a lie, but he stopped talking there because he couldn't think of a fact to tell in detail.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYV9Fpw6X3

Jeong Jae-ui looked at Jeong Tae-ui as if he wanted to say something, but he said nothing.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTyL7hNHgm

There was a moment of silence. Jeong Tae-ui quietly looked at the grain of wood on the floor in silence and asked quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO5zczvJd7

"So you, you don't like him?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJ2ZWzi4XU

It was only after he said it that he thought he shouldn't have said it. He didn't have to do anything about asking. Moreover, it is none of Jeong Tae-ui's business what Jeong Jae-ui thinks of him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcPBk0F2A9

But he's not that bad. No, he's sure he's a bad guy, but judging by the image he tried to shoot like that.....He's enough. But still.......

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2HTA4vSwB

Jeong Tae-ui murmured in his mouth and picked up thoughts that were more of a curse than a compliment. While looking at Jeong Tae-ui, Jeong Jae-ui opened his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gBuGLoRH9

"I haven't seen him since, so I haven't had anything to think about. By the way...I might hate it a little bit."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMVxjklSOa

"Huh? Why?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWXRT0WjJK

Jeong Tae-ui asked back, wondering. But he did not answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KU14MtVoH

Then, the record stopped. The sound stops when the board spins. Jeong Jae-ui stood up from his seat and walked toward the component.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTi5lvupEI

Seeing the fresh back, Jeong Tae-ui thought he didn't want to talk more. Jeong Tae-ui scratched his head. There was no disagreement that he was a bad guy, but it's not so refreshing to hear that he might cut it like that and hate it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25ZUpxZbMr

But he suddenly came to his senses while trying to mutter, saying, "He has a good place in his own way." He realized that there was nothing to answer when asked to pick out what it was like to be a good place.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TRSslaTXU

Looking at Jeong Jae-ui's white fingertips that gently crossed over the album to see which of the albums he was stuck in, Jeong Tae-ui suddenly recalled a clear white hand in his memory.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1J7gzDN9z

Jeong Tae-ui knew the hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3915z1iC6

Jeong Tae-ui knows what the hand looks like, what it feels like, how it moves on the skin.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VoLSOiWCS

Suddenly, he thought he wanted to touch that hand. The white and beautiful hands that are always hidden in hideous gloves. Smooth nails like glass. That hand gesture that contains strength but is not crude.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g7XKO01xV

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91CBL4kIhW

Jeong Tae-ui shook his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6Lp7yQrqt

He has been thinking about weird things.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6do6FKLSU

He laid down on the floor. The cool wooden floor felt as good as the stone floor outside heated in the sun. However, while feeling the pleasant feeling with his back and shoulders, Jeong Tae-ui thought of white hands.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8h2Dazmfs

"I guess I really have a mental breakdown......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqMt7tCh5Z

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly muttered to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hzTzWKqPq

And at one point, he slapped himself on the cheek. The touch, which slapped me quite painfully, was much spicier than intended.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwEio51T6R

Aya, Jeong Tae-ui, who rolled around his face and rubbed his cheeks with tears in his eyes, felt Jeong Jae-ui's back and sat down again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTlHVTh99E

"Why are you doing this all of a sudden?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT0p61myFj

Jeong Jae-ui says with a faint smile. Jeong Tae-ui shrugged his shoulders, equivocating, saying, "No, well."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VH43jkWfU

If it's something that he has to think about and think about alone to get an answer, he doesn't think about it. If they meet again someday, they could have grabbed each other by the collar and asked. (Then he might break his wrist before he heard the answer.)

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjSz8esDob

Jeong Tae-ui looked at Jeong Jae-ui's white hand, which was different from Ilay's. And reached out and grabbed that hand for no reason. Jeong Jae-ui raised his eyebrows in wonder, but he stayed still.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XGWVbp3JB

While holding his hands still, Jeong Tae-ui thought for a moment that it would be a strange sight to see the two grown-up brothers holding hands from the side, but even he erased it from his head thinking what would happen.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV5aoWBenl

Suddenly, Jeong Tae-ui's gaze fell down. There was a foot as white as a hand. Even though he went out to the courtyard a while ago, he can't see any traces of dirt on his feet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrAvhnaDX3

Come to think of that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCR8b6Pgqv

"Where are your shoes? You're barefoot."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoXvZ284wp

When Jeong Tae-ui asked, Jeong Jae-ui looked suspicious. He looked down at his naked feet, leaning his head as if it were strange for him to ask.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKpGFRqd22

Jeong Tae-ui probably wouldn't have asked until the day he left here if he hadn't seen Raman's feet earlier. He didn't think it would have been strange here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw4DemvttY

"Well, I haven't seen shoes since I came here. Sometimes they bring shoes only when they allow me to go out to see Bahep. I didn't really care."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUHD6wO7Hd

Jeong Tae-ui frowned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLxNBAIjBT

He doesn't know exactly what it means to not give shoes, but the meaning that comes to mind right away is confinement. Of course, he won't have to step on the outside ground because he doesn't have shoes, but the word confinement suddenly emerged as a meaningful image.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8vVICdbO8

"...I don't like it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KKX44zxx0

Jeong Tae-ui blurted out. Jeong Jae-ui leans his head slightly as if he were groping for the context of the words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjmLuYGUZZ

"Why don't I wear shoes?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR17IRDrvVK

"No, that's not it. That man. I don't like him."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRcWoCU259

Jeong Jae-ui looked into Jeong Tae-ui's face, which showed a sulky light.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EvKxOLrtt

"What did he say to you?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1oXa9ZvFm

"He didn't say anything in particular, but his personality and way of doing things didn't match."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjifZTTbzF

Jeong Tae-ui said so, but inside, he clicked his tongue. It sounds like a child. He didn't really like or dislike anyone, he didn't think much about it. It was much more rare to speak out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G7DG6Fet1

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1ea8Vgk3t

The subtle tone of voice that spoke of the outside news. The eyes that smile but don't smile. A gleaming gaze as if observing him

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpP4weqH9Z

"......What's the point of coming so often when he keeps getting rejected anyway? If he doesn't have enough time, tell him to come a little slow."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YNeZmwHT0

"But these days, yes, he hasn't walked much since you came."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtt6mXTIC0

Jeong Tae-ui frowned strangely.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbyV8SYucx

"He comes every day."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP82d2g6ePU

"Well...But before that, he almost stayed here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aWpeay5Ab

".......What is he doing here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl9B4RnI8d

Jeong Tae-ui stared at Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZBNuOWCPc

Whenever Raman came there, he seemed strangely familiar with every corner of this annex because it belonged to him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI46ZaaVnd

However, if he thinks about it after listening to Jeong Jae-ui's words, it may have been that he was familiar with the space itself, not just because it belonged to him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPCPRj9N0d

"He usually asks questions. Just like you used to do to me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBVoHAxWTm

As he often said to him, Jeong Tae-ui soon understood after hearing that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZm1iZw2Bm

This quiet brother rarely spoke to others first or made his point. Most of them simply returned only the necessary words even if others talked to them.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWylXbZRqtE

But he knew a lot, and all he knew was not just dictionary knowledge. He excelled in all areas of judgment, understanding, and rational reasoning in any situation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaxPF7SPGo

Jeong Tae-ui also used to hold onto Jeong Jae-ui and tell stories when there was something to think about. Then Jeong Jae-ui was listening to what he was saying, and then he was able to fill in the missing parts of the story and take out or correct the overflow parts, leading him to the conclusion he needed. There were times when it was a quarrel with a friend, times when it was an unresolved task, and times when it was an important choice to go through in life. And the conclusion obtained by talking with Jeong Jae-ui has never disappointed Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fji2FXkCM

Jeong Tae-ui once said with a smile, "If my brother doesn't have anything to live for, even if everyone in the world dies of hunger without work, it won't be like my brother, but I can be a counselor."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2R1PsQMgY

"....I didn't expect a counselor here. But I don't seem to need counseling at all, what the hell are you saying?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk93H750Uy

"Well, we usually talk about the trend of the power struggle....It's not much to say to others."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44kWvNNJty

Jeong Tae-ui muttered, "Ha!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bjm9YniCE

He doesn't know if it's because he hates him, but he thinks he's living a comfortable life. It didn't sound enough to kidnap and imprison him to produce weapons, and every day it sounded like squeezing a person's head in the name of counseling.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F8da6FF9g

Jeong Tae-ui, who muttered, "Poor brother." collapsed on the spot as if he had collapsed. He closed his eyes feeling the grain of wood touching his cheek.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtB1LkSxJe

"It's just the way he does it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCymiSmuoP

The voice was pleasant but he didn't answer because he wanted to hear the voice again. The voice calls his name once again. Tae-ui opened his eyes instead of answering.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VHUnrfTr3

"Do you want to go out?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzKpdnp7Y9

Jae-ui asked quietly. He looked at Jeong Tae-ui with a calm eye.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxjazjm6NH

If Tae-ui nods, he will nod, too. If Jeong Tae-ui wanted to go out, he must have found a way to go out for Jeong Tae-ui. And there's only one way he can.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qtBLislac

Jeong Tae-ui was silent for a while and murmured.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh2hGQvv6f

"Uncle is looking for you. Yeah, Kyle was looking for you, too."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wOl9towHM

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WpYc0ennv

"I didn't find you because I wanted to take you back. I just need to meet you, and that's enough. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we just missed each other."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf3w9d3cOs

Jeong Jae-ui nodded, almost invisible. He couldn't tell at first glance what he meant.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaia3xZxsj

"I don't mind going back alone."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFFWW6Z4ui

Jeong Tae-ui said. If Jeong Jae-ui wants to stay here, it is okay for Jeong Tae-ui to go back alone. It was also like saying that he didn't want to stay here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfolIhUHSCf

But this time, Jeong Jae-ui shook his head. The meaning was soon known. Raman will not let Jeong Tae-ui go out alone and threaten Jeong Jae-ui's confinement. He thought so. Jeong Tae-ui wanted to go out and also had to go out, but he did not intend to carry out his will until he broke Jeong Jae-ui's will.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDXU3u9qqR

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U84uao6fG

Sorry, Ilay. You will be looking for me there for a while. I might have to stay here for a while. But don't be too angry because I also share the nervousness that you may be feeling. And... If I meet you someday, please don't kill me immediately.....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYHrhgxdPC

***

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeZXmyNHqn

He woke up from a deep sleep.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiwMuqntkd

He felt like he heard a voice from somewhere. But when he opened his eyes, there was no one there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4lWytPypb

"Ilay..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFNqqXDGdZ

Jeong Tae-ui called the name of the person who seemed to have called him a while ago. Apparently he called himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMIAVjh6uI

However, when he wakes up, he realizes that he is the only one there, he must have dreamed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8psvWeURSt

A dream that penetrates into the dark night is a fleeting melt of memory, and he sat on the bed and soon felt his memory melt. The dream faded rapidly in his head. In a few more minutes, he thought he'd forget whose name he woke up from.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qgY9U4PgR

Jeong Tae-ui looked down at his hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuSBpwlmeM

The hands, which lay as if they were thrown out on a soft, textured quilt, looked as if they were in the dark.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2jZirhK7O

From the window a little away from the bed, so that the sun wouldn't shine right away, the anchor was pouring. It's still 1 or 2 o'clock. Is it a little past midnight at the earliest? the deepening admonition of the night.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kWNBvoxCr

He was so curious when he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night. He can guess the time as the body feels. Most of the time, if approximate, was right.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwKQp8NHLr

He didn't know it was because he fell asleep early. The reason why he opened his eyes so clearly during the night.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQvgkZNCRE

"Ha......" Jeong Tae-ui sighed quietly. The quiet breathing was heard exceptionally loud in the stillness of the whole thing. He thought he could fall asleep again soon if he lay down and went to sleep like this. But somehow he felt sorry to see the glaring moonlight, so he rose from his seat.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8S6F0B6v5

Is everyone asleep? At this time, everyone would fall asleep and the inside of this annex would have been soaked in silence except for a few guards who patrolled occasionally.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M0Pbs8duC

He got out of bed. Then he goes to the window and stands.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTohfcK17x

He couldn't see the moon very well. It was floating on top of his head, covered in a window. He has to look up close to the window to see the bright light on his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P5ywgwBAC

What he sees is stars that are brighter than the moon.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1baW8nnDi

A thickly curved white stem was above the sky. The Milky Way. Here in Seringue, the most beautiful star sea was flowing overhead.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2EcCFqa4D

Jeong Tae-ui breathed out a quiet breath again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xhNXF1wug

He turned his steps. He's going outside and lying down in the middle and looking up at the sky.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA41MH6owf8

He suddenly remembered his childhood. It was a very young age. But the memory was partly glimpsed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYN4OOGHdK

It is said that it was a day of meteor showers.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxjJNqj3ok

A few days before the forecast of the meteor shower, his father and mother took them into a mountain that night. He thinks they drove for hours, bored, but it's an exaggerated memory of his childhood, so he doesn't know if it's really that far.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUUyZwQhzA

They ran into the dark mountain, stopped the car at the foot, and walked up from there for a long time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFk238UAL8

He remembered being happy as if they were going on a picnic. The place, where they started excitedly preparing snacks and arrived long enough to get tired of them, was a land that was hollowed out in the middle of the mountain. There was only a hole in the middle of the forest, and there were no tall trees or short trees, and only the bushes were rustling under their feet. There were already a few other people there, besides them, hanging around. Maybe they were the ones who came to see the meteor shower.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt6cmuH8WU

Even though he wore thick clothes, he remembered shaking and asking, "When will the stars fall?" at night, because it was very cold in the mountains. Meanwhile, Jeong Jae-ui was looking at the sky without saying a word.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIK64gzSQc

Jeong Tae-ui also asked several times when the stars fell, but eventually swallowed the question.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZooffS4na

Stars full of the sky and the milky way that were clearly distinguishable.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcJISkIJtF

He even felt a faint fear. If all those stars fall. At the same time, however, there was a small desire for it in one corner. How beautiful it must be. If he put on those beautiful things that look cold and stinging.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFc8VdOjMXm

He remembered looking at the stars that filled the sky, his heart was very hot and stuffy. Now, the feeling would be called emotion or emotion, but the sense was more intense and affectionate than the language.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX9kUDN2Y1

"I fell asleep, so I couldn't see the meteor shower..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhZ3Tk6VkN

Jeong Tae-ui grinned and muttered.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBRkO34S10

He thought he fell asleep, but when he opened his eyes, he was in the car going home. When asked why they didn't wake him up, all the family members insisted, "We woke you up, but you didn't wake up." When Jeong Tae-ui, who had not seen the meteor shower that he had expected at most, was sulking with a sulky face, Jeong Jae-ui, who looked at the sky without sleeping, spoke quietly to Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtndKucQun

"If you wait, you'll see a meteor shower like today again."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnfomn0Lyu

"Where was that?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs6RcmUwqU

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly muttered and recalled his memory. All he could remember was that they drove home for quite a long time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98psKFmUPy

Will it still be there? It's already well past twenty years. Maybe it's already been developed and cut down and there's not even a trace left by now. Still, suddenly remembered memories drew the desire to visit the place.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2N6QsB3U7

"You might know."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSu4QI7l6YV

He should have asked him when he woke up tomorrow morning, but Jeong Tae-ui moved to Jae-ui, muttering whether he would remember until then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpXzqnDTIH

But as he stepped out into the corridor, he paused. In the dark, the moonlight dimmed the center.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRBeRUYrc7

The place stopped motionless. Even the leaves floating lonely on the pond remained still without shaking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MSHU2a9Q9

Next to it, there was a backside.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaOgePGjeZ

Jeong Jae-ui was sitting still next to the pond and looking up at the sky as if he was lost. Jeong Tae-ui paused, standing in the shade of the awning of the corridor, and looked at him quietly. It seems that he was still awake.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl9UrByD5F

He began to walk again. There was a small sound of beating and stepping on the stone floor. Jeong Jae-ui did not look back even though he might have heard the sound. Jeong Tae-ui approached him, stopped a few steps back, and stayed still.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXnLlLJBwE

"When I was young, I went to see meteor showers......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaU50HZdP7

As soon as he sat down, Jeong Jae-ui quietly opened his mouth. Jeong Tae-ui paused and turned his head to look at him. He felt strange.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqcJvveIJa

The story that Jeong Jae-ui is talking about may have been the time when Jeong Tae-ui was thinking about it a while ago. No, he only remembers going to see meteor showers when he was young, so he thought it would be then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HXjr9fo4b

Did he see the same thing and think the same thing? Somehow, Jeong Tae-ui smiled with joy. Jeong Jae-ui's words continued.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5Cg2ur0za

"The meteor shower was very beautiful, but there were so many stars, so the sky was more memorable than the meteor shower."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuITHDmWJX

Jeong Tae-ui paused again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL2eAKbWgk

Jeong Jae-ui is not a person who talks to himself. Jeong Tae-ui himself sometimes murmured to himself to the point of slightly doubting his mental health, but he did not sleepwalk. He didn't think that was what he said to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCy7cNpmkF

"............uh......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbqywzvWFG

Jeong Tae-ui hesitated for a while and answered vaguely.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq1DZjWFaL

Then, Jeong Jae-ui seemed to be slightly shrinking his shoulders, and turned around a little surprised.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5FFNKEXcm

"It was unconscious."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDAeKZYTDe

"Well."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDunTvSLck

"What's up, at such a time."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uwj2SW9qd

"I just woke up suddenly. Were you with someone else?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMUq6yvErc

"Huh? I'm not."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarX70aFerC

Jeong Jae-ui looked at Jeong Tae-ui with a mysterious face as if he was wondering what he was talking about. Jeong Tae-ui looked at his head with the same mysterious face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFV8FLulPlM

"No, I thought you were talking to someone a while ago."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rlOcz9Vqt

"Huh? Ah, it was Raman. Sometimes he comes to me at night. He said that this is the highest area among the buildings in the annex, and this Pavilion is the closest to the sky in the annex. Maybe that's why the night sky looks the closest."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimUTuczQW2

"That way, the stars tens of thousands of light years away look closer, even though they're meters apart by meters."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2HIX46hZH

Jeong Tae-ui was sulking. Jeong Jae-ui laughs quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MTxBdzrwY

Jeong Tae-ui lay down as he was. During the day, the hot stone floor was heated by the sun, and now it is chilly. When Jeong Tae-ui lay down, Jeong Jae-ui also lay down next to him. Lie at a right angle, put their heads together side by side, and look up at the sky without saying a word for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfn40UToH9

Suddenly, Jeong Tae-ui smiled. He thinks he heard the breathing sound, but Jeong Jae-ui seems to be looking back a little.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev25ouTSlT

"No, the meteor shower I mentioned earlier."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkJr0cMGID

"Oh......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NPEdIIya3

"I couldn't watch it because I was sleeping."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCgGi4yOhO

"Yes, I woke you up, but you didn't wake up."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXQnkWvt2T

"Yes, but we had a meteor shower last year. At that time, I watched it with the platoon without sleeping, and it was beautiful......but I thought of it then. I think the star sky that I saw when I was young was more beautiful."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORwX393ls1

Jeong Tae-ui grinned and muttered.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAq77nTLd7

Emotional empathy warms his heart like this. The memory of having the same experience and experiencing the same emotions as someone has become a small nutrient in life. That may be why a friend who has been dating for a long time is precious.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckp9becXaR

Tae-ui's intentions were understood. He's sure Jeong Jae-ui has similar thoughts with him. He felt better and said with a small smile.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZlBqCJr7J

"...Looking at it like this, the sky I see from here looks the same as the sky I saw then."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X4iLD6yUg

"No way.... Our country is in the Northern Hemisphere, Tae-ui."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA6rX5aqMK

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CDwh8iPfz

He forgot for a moment. His brother sometimes said something unbecoming to his quiet, calm face. Like this, there are times when he breaks the situation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpTRMsQFdc

When he tried to be a little touched for the first time in a while, Jeong Jae-ui, who was still looking at the sky with resentment, smiled quietly and whispered to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFzS6qt2b7

"Gangwon-do."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEpgvlNqQC

"Huh?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCa17KK5rq

"It was Hongcheon....Let's go there."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VwMvtX3qq

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him gently. Jeong Tae-ui laughed after looking at him whispering to go later for a long time. murmured, "Yes." and he turned his head back to the sky.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspwEnNuCOn

There were so many stars. Looking at the flowing Milky Way in front of his eyes, Jeong Tae-ui suddenly remembered Jeong Jae-ui one day. At the bluish dawn, he sat still in the cool air and quietly listened to a sound that would not be heard by humans.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt86j3xMX4

Even now, just like back then. He seemed to be hearing something. He can't hear himself, but if he's in that faraway sky, he will hear the white shining stones that will constantly whisper in his ears.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivsN0hjzld

"You are...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r6jJDDCet

Jeong Tae-ui opened his mouth at one point. The words that took a short break followed the silence of Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBg5UZoNio

"Sometimes, I don't feel like a person."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJnbx4QeFO

"......Did you?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLesgqG5P1B

"Giving good luck to someone......If there's someone really interesting like that, it'll be closer to you than to me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2scgNNI3Gk

There was silence for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIYwLNsgXj

But really, he didn't know that. Come to think of it, after separation with Jeong Jae-ui, Jeong Tae-ui suffered a lot. He was trapped there, doubting that he had a disease in his head now, even though he had met a crazy man who he couldn't handle, been chased, and caught.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXdVisNvDU

"I think my brother brought me luck."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV3407u8N8

Jeong Tae-ui said quietly. The voice vaguely contained a grateful light. Actually, it doesn't matter if he knows, it doesn't matter. Jeong Tae-ui received numerous things to thank Jeong Jae-ui. Just being around now, it's so peaceful.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMp4Tb3lt2

How long has it been? There was a long silence. Like those endless stars, silence seemed to continue endlessly, but at one point, a low voice obscured the silence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdvpm0rOTz

"It's just the way you do it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HjChuVTkQ

Jeong Tae-ui, who was feeling sleepy on the cold stone floor and under the pouring sky, listened quietly to his quiet brother's voice.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3zlmGNKMh

"Without you, I'll die."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqorcWbVex

"......Why do you keep saying weird things? That's not a very nice thing to hear."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXPOSinaZC

He can hear a quiet laugh for a moment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2ZJ6VX20D

"Whenever something happens, you always come to me first. When people kidnap me, when I'm kidnapped, when I'm about to have a car accident. On such days, you always come to me first. We're in different classes and we have different friends who hang out together, so we're at home at night. We're always apart when we play at school or after school. But sometimes, I just miss you all of a sudden. When you put your head into our classroom and smiled, something always happened that day."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4ErD2MAws

".......I don't remember."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY8p7IVEu2

Jeong Tae-ui frowned and murmured.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU1Mjj0jtO

As he said, they sat side by side and pretended to be serious after entering middle and high school, and he had different tendencies when he was young, and at that time, Jae-ui was already in a situation where he couldn't be called a normal child, so he almost played separately. They used to sit side by side and read books or play jokes sometimes until evening.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYiCVC75ox

Sometimes, he ran around the hallway, played with his friends, and when he suddenly remembered his brother, he ran to his brother's classroom and checked his face. That's how he felt. Even if his brother was not in the classroom, he went around to the bathroom, the teacher's room, and the other class to find him. Then, when he saw his face, he was just relieved, so he would smile and go back quickly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvbfU19z6m

But he didn't remember what happened to his brother in those days.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4w01kjmnW

"If you were sick, I was sick with you. When I was sick first, I was sick by myself."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVre8aJNBEz

Jeong Jae-ui continued. Jeong Tae-ui thought for a while and nodded, saying, "I don't remember because I was too young, but mother always said so."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTWNcDoqip

"Was it unfair?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI43dS3rMFF

"It wasn't like that. But since you were very young, yeah, you don't remember, I thought, You and I are connected by something. I don't know what it is, but I felt like you had some kind of string that led to me......Before I grew up to a certain extent, I wondered if you might be my history. If you're sick, I'm sick, and if you come to see me out of the blue, something bad always happens that day."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArc5bNUj8Q

".......After luck, is it a disaster?....It's such a sudden change of direction."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53ScrCs6fu

Jeong Tae-ui scratched his neck with a bitter smack. It's just unbelievable that he gives his brother good luck, but if he gives him bad luck, it's something he doesn't want to believe.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7k5aNoxBx

"Then when I was twelve. You were in the hospital for a while because you fell from a persimmon tree in the back of the school and broke your leg."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXg9F5y4gL

Jeong Tae-ui murmured, "Ah!" He remembered that. Jeong Tae-ui had never had a cold or any other illness since he grew up, but he had quite a few injuries while playing with his friends in that way. There was no day for bruises to stop.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTsWW7i1T8

He remembers clearly then. Before that, when he was seriously injured and on the operating table, a rejection occurred, and even then, he was worried while he was going to the hospital crying and moaning. "What if I die like this?" Fortunately, the bone broke very cleanly, so he just had to keep it fixed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5Wgh7cdJY

The reason why the memory of that time remained exceptionally clear was not because it was sick. While Jeong Tae-ui was lying in the hospital, Jeong Jae-ui was once again embroiled in a kidnapping case. Even then, with that incredible luck, he returned to normal without any injuries. Perhaps that was the last time for crimes such as kidnapping or kidnapping surrounding Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oUhHSSYOF

"I don't know if you remember.....Mother, who stayed with you at the hospital to take care of you, suddenly called me in the morning. You begged her to see me so that I could stop by before going to school. But I didn't have enough time to stop by the hospital because I was on class duty at the time. Besides, it's not like you're dying right away, you just broke your leg, so stopping by in the afternoon won't be a big deal."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ518XdcYsey

".......I don't remember."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVskeaTeq00

"Yeah. I asked you once a long time later, but you didn't remember."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8Eu39KBUq

At Jeong Jae-ui's words, Jeong Tae-ui smacked his lips awkwardly again. The man who lies next to him even remembers when he took his first step, but that's strange for him. It was normal for me not to remember small things well.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYwDJrPmye

But as the story goes.......

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKK1YrfSrk

"Was that the day you were kidnapped?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x2PGU6XPa

"Yes, I was going to the hospital to see you that day."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgDQ5JtVkc

"But you were back to normal then. Even if you don't meet me. Luckily."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ906rqhs5

There was no answer for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TnNHaqSYN

Jeong Jae-ui was silent for a long time as if he were lost in another thought, but he continued quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtfsEBo3aD

"That morning, I was on class duty, so I didn't have time, but the moment I got a call from my mother, I actually got scared. I was thinking you might be my perversity then. Something bad happens when I meet you. So, I thought it was again because you suddenly said you wanted to see me. That's why I didn't go. And on my way back from school...I was dragged away."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGxlhkHk2B

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0mSAfymI7

Jeong Jae-ui closed his mouth again. Jeong Tae-ui also remembered what happened at that time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeskkJxA9rX

One day when Jeong Tae-ui was hospitalized, it was heard that Jeong Jae-ui was kidnapped again. However, it has happened so many times so far, and he has always been miraculously lucky to return, so the family was worried and on the other hand, they were a little high-minded. And at that time, as usual, Jeong Jae-ui returned with a casual face around the evening.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdRCW1vtCb

So maybe it was that day.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeLyZaBSHz

When he woke up from sleeping in the hospital, Jeong Jae-ui was next to him. There was no mother or father, and only Jeong Jae-ui was in the hospital room.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPXNjSkdfS

Sitting next to the bed, Jeong Jae-ui was staring down at Jeong Tae-ui. Just silent and still. Jeong Tae-ui also said nothing for some reason. As if he were asleep or dreaming, he only faced Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlGRSBiXAh

After looking at it for a long time, Jeong Jae-ui left the hospital room, and Jeong Tae-ui seems to have fallen asleep again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CwajK6fSv

"Then I found out on my way home. You're the one who offsets the bad luck that comes to me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4RkO960Ho

"......I don't know."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrClvATsuz

Jeong Tae-ui murmured slowly. After a short pause, Jeong Jae-ui smiled quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vdLzKA15A

"It's not something that can be explained in words. Actually, it's not about that, or when you got hurt right before you left the army and you were in danger from surgery, I was stuck at home and lost my mind, or anything like that. It's something that's there that can't be said."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraS5ePsqPU

"It's so vague.......Hey, I've never felt like I was such a mysterious and amazing person. Is there anything I can understand?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzObbtqbwf

"I think I saw it wrong." Jeong Tae-ui said with a sigh.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADj0lB8WXP

The more he listened, the more strange he felt. It was like listening to a story like a psychic program or a mystery experience, and it didn't feel real.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0VVC9sJ6V

Jeong Jae-ui was silent. In the silence, Jeong Tae-ui realized that there was something left that Jeong Jae-ui had not said. However, even if he waited a little longer, there was no sign of Jeong Jae-ui's conversation, and Jeong Tae-ui felt that he had finished his part of the story today. He sighs lightly once again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSfYNfLB7w

But if.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2BAKLfZ5s

If one thing, his story is true.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbChqfo9MFn

Not all of that happened by accident, but Jeong Tae-ui himself was really influencing Jae-ui. What an amazing, and frighteningly heavy fate it is.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUQFWNV9gp

Suddenly, a corner of my chest seemed to be weighed down. The pressure, which is completely different from pain, gently presses the heart and carries the weight.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZD2jGt1nF

"That's it. There's no...no more. Actually, it was a story I didn't even need to know."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXtjtfCF8a

Jeong Jae-ui whispered as if he was trying to make a speech. The light that Jeong Tae-ui didn't want to know was dimly mixed. Perhaps if Jeong Tae-ui had not heard the word luck from his uncle or anywhere, Jeong Jae-ui would never have told him first.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrK1s1YAiQ

"I didn't have to recognize the relationship that led to that. That heavy, awkward strap."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QwCt6LA2M

A self-contained voice talking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL5FMOu6HI

Jeong Tae-ui was silent at that sadly blurred voice. A thought suddenly popped into her mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp117yKZV57

"....I'm not like that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUw8bdoIYK

"...?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD2Ghdm9E3

"I still don't understand or understand Gilsangcheon or anything like that, but even so, I'm neither heavy nor clumsy. Because of that, there are things that make me feel heavy or awkward, distant or alien. It's nice to have a bond that is extraordinarily stronger than people."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqDCA0m358

Jeong Tae-ui grumbled disapprovingly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pbYP0373N

What, he's always thought of me that way, damn it, did he have a crush? As he grumbled like that, he pouted his lips and frowned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrbVHtAv2h

He mumbled a joke like that, but he thought at the same time in his heart.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaiLUoVmYU

He saw this relationship that way. It was a different matter than whether he liked or disliked Jeong Tae-ui. He didn't think he hated him. He probably loved himself as much as he loved him. But aside from that, he found the relationship heavy and difficult.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvbxt0Ts8a

"Damn....what is this? I'm mad. What is the red thread that hyung cut off? Why are you running out of the house with scissors? Thanks to that, you're locked up like this now."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVsVeioGZy

Jeong Tae-ui jumped up from his seat and sat down. And when he turned his head, he saw Jeong Jae-ui looking at him with a strange face. He blinked his eyes for a moment, staring at Jeong Tae-ui, then raised his hand and looked at his palm and murmured.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy98efYB1C

"It doesn't look like it was cut very....well. There's no way it could be cut like that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbdDIjUQ29

"It must have been because of my brother's heart, not a relationship."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3as7ZfdUGE

Jeong Tae-ui said sullenly. He bluntly grabs Jeong Jae-ui's hand and pulls him in, and Jeong Jae-ui looks at him again with a strange face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdomQizXOSD

"Give me your hand. Let's tie it up again. Hang on, was it your little finger?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKuwBalpIb

"Huh? Uh...but I can't tie it again."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvzmO3Krsk

While holding his hand, Jae-ui stood up and sat down. And he still has a strange face somewhere and continues to look at Jeong Tae-ui. Jeong Tae-ui raised his eyebrows.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzqTiyYdq2

"I can't tie it. How do I tie an invisible string? But if I could cut it with scissors, I could tie it. Let's tie it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFj1s8aZSj

"It's not...No, it doesn't matter..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr5SdJgq1O

Jeong Jae-ui was going to say something, but he wanted to think for a moment, and then he quietly muttered to himself. Jeong Tae-ui glanced at him curiously and touched the edge of his little finger. He pretended to pick up his thread from nowhere and thought for a moment what he was doing, but it didn't matter. This is a symbol.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd9zADB6lZ

The symbol is faith.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4g9WkWKaW

Suddenly, he remembered a saying he had once heard. Yep, that's what Ilay said.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY9gRYqi8R

At that time, he said so, and he said that he would own Jeong Tae-ui. Maybe he was thinking like this at the time. He considers it his own, and he didn't even know that he had pulled Tae-ui and tied him to himself, as he is now trying to do.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4CuNEAfY4

"...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LxACyFtea

Jeong Tae-ui stopped holding Jeong Jae-ui's hand. Suddenly, his voice, expression, and touch came to mind as if he was right next to him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT1r1FCpeF

You know you are mine.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvL5hnUy9y

That soft, warm voice.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt5kPEMc7r

You remember it well, Tae-ui. From today....From now on, every day, you are mine.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9u2uCNX9O

His hot breath, his hand, his body temperature, stick to his body.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyfrf0VS9S

"What is it, Tae-ui?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeEUnqSiKr

Jeong Jae-ui called from the side as if puzzled.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYVHvTkhgY

Jeong Tae-ui thought the night sky was too bright. He wishes those stars could only half close their eyes right now. To hide this hot face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUTriJWF49

Jeong Tae-ui murmured, "No, it's nothing special." and stole his hot face with the back of his hand. And he lowers his head without saying a word for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpFU6EN1DP

It was then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPVmrhWIH8

Then, suddenly feeling a sense of alienation for an unknown reason, Jeong Tae-ui raised his head. At the end of the west corridor, the wooden door was open. And in front of it, under the shade of the awning in the corridor, a large human shadow was cast.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAiiHASOBt

In the darkness, the man stood like a nocturnal beast. With black eyes that have sunk like ice, the owner of this annex is watching this place quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fOmZI1Ode

In an instant, his heart became cold.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKoZHmycsE

He didn't know when he had been there. Without a sign, the man was staying there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgabPL5IiOv

...oh okay. Come to think of it, hyung said that he sometimes visits at night. They sometimes come here to look at the night sky. Perhaps today was such a day. The man's gloomy eyes and his eyes met. But before Jeong Tae-ui could pretend to know him, he turned and went out the door again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQbyOnaATm

"...?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohFRWxVo7l

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him curiously and tilted his head. Then, his eyes met with Jeong Jae-ui, who had his back on the west corridor. Jeong Jae-ui was looking at Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjhckuTbrl

"Why is that? Tae-ui."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zKC1FBpBi

"Huh? No, right now..........No. I must have seen it wrong."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHya34WVobx

Jeong Tae-ui replied, scratching his head. He tilts his head a couple more times, and then mutters, "I don't know." And then he lay flat on the floor again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd80H1KZxl

He could feel Jeong Jae-ui's silent gaze sitting next to him. As he turned his head, their eyes met. He looked at it like that for a long time, and then he lay down along the road.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlFotcatEw

Lying side by side again, they looked at the sky in front of them silently.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5XRvB52yB

Obviously, he was thinking the same thing while watching the same thing earlier, but now he doesn't know what he's thinking. But maybe now it's not the same thought. Jeong Tae-ui thought so with a little regret.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwff2qU6hu

Apparently he was thinking the same thing while seeing the same thing before, but now he doesn't know what he was thinking. However, perhaps it is not the same idea now. Jeong Tae-ui thought so with a little regret.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OD3mPkcMs

***

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGvuS0gdFl

You are mine.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs2mbZfNjb

He thought of some thoughts.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PXO3px0GX

From the moment he woke up in the morning, Jeong Tae-ui sighed and lamented inwardly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmf4Zzzu2l

"I'm not Ilay's."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRLSG6RRIX

He even tried to mumble in a small voice. Then he wondered if that word would be offset by any chance.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2lnHxD0A3

It didn't seem to have much effect, probably because he was whispering in a small voice like an ant crawling while looking around to see if anyone could hear it. Those words kept running through his mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0nb2ADZgQ

"Because I'm not. Because I'm mine."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qY0bwmqgv

Jeong Tae-ui buried his face in his arms as if he was about to cry.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgssSZ9VNr

He knows the truth. A person cannot belong to anyone. He wants to become someone's possession by his own will, and although he can be next to him, he cannot forcefully enter into possession against his will.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEni7X4sbPg

He was completely his own. his own body too. his own mind. his own spirit too.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cLeMECoYD

But since it was his own, he was also fully responsible for all of it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjp6j8JElO

"You have to take responsibility and be mindful..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tVVrdM7fx

Jeong Tae-ui shook his head sharply.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wp0pMCj4n

He thinks at the same time. "How are things going on the outside right now?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDU9riabn7

After Jeong Tae-ui came here, he was told that Ilay had turned some Arabs to pieces. "He didn't show any anger or concern." Raman said. But after that, there was no word from him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEer6zushlT

How are you doing now?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkK490RSOk

Hopefully, he's not just catching and smashing all those who look like Arabs at random. If he did, he might become an Arab achievement, and Arabs with the Quran in one hand might attack him with a sword in the other.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVAdzD1C0H

"Wow... that must be a real harpoon."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkMlZ8zBXj

"I'm glad I'm not that guy."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2r0txPgEM

Tae-ui thought so, and if anything like that ever happened, he prayed earnestly that it would happen when he wasn't by his side. But really, how is he doing? He could have guessed that he was here. Given the circumstances, it is inevitable.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXErGDT1msn

But if that was the case, there was no other way to do it. For the same reason that they could not do it while they vaguely guessed that Jeong Jae-ui would be in Raman's villa, they would still be stranded there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJuF8iE90P

Ilay is...his attitude may have changed a bit.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJacdskNNHv

When he came to Seringue, even before that, he had an attitude that he didn't really care whether he was looking for Jeong Jae-ui or not. He premiered there, even though he knew that Jae-ui was extremely important to both T&R and UNHRDO, with whom he had one legged. Perhaps, if Jeong Tae-ui had not come here, he might not have paid any attention to whether or not Jeong Jae-ui was missing.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wZkg4WUdW

Now then, he's starting to look a little harder...But as a way to find people, if he's hurting Arabs one by one, that's a bit of a problem.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYiBouaJd5

In the meantime, he thought for a moment that outside the fence, a bunch of Arabs might be uprising to get rid of their achievements.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlh2QbPPcO

"......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuHVgvYPZk

It would be nice if there was a way to get in touch. If anything, he can contact him, even for a short time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou7RUu9Q0c

Jeong Tae-ui, who had been lying on his face next to the pond, raised his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1qu0Dh5QH

Still at the end of the corridor stood the watchman in front of the only movable door. He was sitting on a wooden chair, yawning loudly, with a large sword around his waist that he doubted would ever be pulled out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWZgiON9bx

.....Knock that guy down and walk out that door.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkySXMbP2e

Jeong Tae-ui thought about it for a while, but then shook his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ07VV3lw6

Even if he went through that door, he probably wouldn't be able to get out of the annex. This is one of the many annexes built inside the huge wall of the annex. Then, even if he goes outside that corridor, he will end up wandering somewhere inside the annex.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK4BYzUO2c

In addition, luckily, this annex is located near the main gate of the annex, so it would be nice if it was possible to hide well and see the opportunity when the gate was opened and jump out, but the possibility of that was small. As soon as Jeong Tae-ui crosses the wall of the annex, an emergency alert is almost established throughout the annex. Moreover, if this annex was even in the deepest part of the annex. Needless to say...

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzlPPXH8nA

"Come to think of it, I heard that this annex had the highest rent in the annex..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopeaCELFWe

Jeong Tae-ui remembered something he had heard a while ago. And he remembered a map of the area he had seen before, as if drawn by a child's feet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFTGe5KMvq

The villas around this area were surrounded by the coastline of the southeast. He doesn't know which of these annexes are, but considering the topography, if the annex is located in the highest place in the annex, it must have been a place that was quite far away from the main gate of the annex and entered deep inside.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho99z8xAms

That is, the farthest from the gate.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa5RSG7xyK

"He must have made the deepest living quarters for fear of running away. I don't know if it's me, but where is brother escaping from? Because that person doesn't do such troublesome things."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs41sn8l264

While grumbling, Jeong Tae-ui looked sadly at the side door at the end of the west corridor. In the end, it is easy to get caught only after defeating that guard before crossing the gate of the annex. And more importantly, Jeong Tae-ui wasn't confident he could beat that Arab man.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeivVW229Y0

He already realized it at the moment he first met him. To be exact, it is the moment when he was hit in the pit of the stomach as soon as he first encountered it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEZLs70sGk

That was accurate.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ472xeFoX

Even if he knew in advance that Jeong Tae-ui was running after him, it was easy and quite difficult to hit the pit of the stomach at the very time when he appeared, with no error, and with no less than enough strength to faint.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9Cb1lepKf

At the moment he was hit, he thought, "It's a gong." And the idea didn't change even while looking at him while playing away for a few days. It looked like a common old man scattered in an alley in a market in the Middle East, and it was probably only a few people who could fight and win against that man properly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngi78m9A3j

In addition.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDS87WV8B7

"First of all, that guy...Let's see.....2, 3, 4......5? I don't know. I think it's about four or five."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREShVwL3g2

Jeong Tae-ui muttered and picked his hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eC0HrSn4a

Perhaps if Jeong Tae-ui did something suspicious or caused a disturbance and if it was something that was hard to deal with with just his stumpy uncle there were a few more people who could show up right away.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTYJLWXsJc

In conclusion, it was right to see that it was impossible to break through by force on its own.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBLBzWIdBi

However, it should be considered impossible to wait for rescue from outside. That's why he couldn't confirm it even though he assumed that there would be Jeong Jae-ui in Raman's separate house.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUOb0WCekG

"I don't mind if I can't get out of here right now, so I hope we can get in touch."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqXJbrLwvg

Jeong Tae-ui scratched his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qGY3gzjbv

In this annex, contact with the outside was strictly prohibited. He couldn't write a letter or look for a phone at all.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33ULIyTj2m

Until Jeong Tae-ui came here, on Friday, Jeong Jae-ui could go out to the night market for a while with Raman's permission, even though he had to wrap a chador around it and wear a veil over it and a watchman behind it. Perhaps he knew that Jeong Jae-ui was a person who would not try to escape hastily.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRGPKWc4z1

But now even that was forbidden. Jeong Jae-ui can't go out either, and Jeong Tae-ui can't either.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshaUEAyo4X

Jeong Tae-ui glanced again at the Arab man watching. If he asks politely, can he borrow his cell phone? He thought so, and laughed at himself for thinking about it seriously for a moment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAnR6IKhQc

They had a medium to contact the outside world, as well as being trapped inside the annex all day to monitor Jeong Jae-ui. It's for themselves and for one situation in a million.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93Bdl8aGqI

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn8RkNNbrs

Should I give it a try?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplZj2eLPZQ

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly came up with a dangerous idea.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxbXkYBPbW

He learned something from Alta when he was at UNHRDO. Alta, who had been out in Hong Kong for a weekend at some point, said that a dork pickpocket was caught trying to rip him off, and he smiled and boasted that he had ripped it from him. At the same time, he even showed him how to do this to catch Jeong Tae-ui, who was drinking beer next to him, and taught him how to pick his pocket properly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGZSOTpm31

Next to him, Carlo said, "But he's a very talented guy, so what is je to do if you teach him that?" but he didn't even listen to Alta, who had a lot of alcohol in him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRV1Eq7QgIr

He didn't really want to learn it, but he learned it from Alta's drunkenness.....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBonK6dXBy8

Jeong Tae-ui looked down at his hand. After learning that time, he used it a few times because it was quite fun, but then it withered and did little. He doesn't know if his hands will still move properly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uGWMNLqQI

At a glance, he saw an Arab man. The Arab man, who was looking forward bluntly, looked back at Jeong Tae-ui. His indifferent yet sharp eyes looked directly at him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYbO3wrrU0

......Ah, I can't do it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'll die if I have to.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdrLAmBjIG

Jeong Tae-ui smiled and waved. The man turned his head again, looking curtly, but nodding his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsvtett8ko

But it was then. As Jeong Tae-ui tried to roll his thoughts, the man stood up from his chair. Then he shouted something inside the corridor. Soon a young man jumped out of the corridor.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgklDg54Piy

That Arab man was also a watchman there, and he might be an unexpectedly well-known person elsewhere, so the young man seemed to be attached to him and cared for him. When the young man came out, the man muttered a few words and left. Jeong Tae-ui, who was muttering, "It's a bathroom." suddenly opened his eyes. And he looked at the fresh side of the young man who stayed for a while instead of the man.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyBiNEwuN0

......At that rate, maybe.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsj8LB24tJ

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly stood up from his seat. Confirming that the man had entered the corridor, he walked occasionally to the young man. The young man standing in front of the door raised his eyebrows as if he was wondering when Jeong Tae-ui approached.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UeMW6oUeb

"I wish you'd let me out."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKm5gk9Gor

Jeong Tae-ui smiled as he pointed to the door. Of course, the young man could not understand what Jeong Tae-ui said in his native language, but the young man shook his head firmly as he guessed the meaning from the gesture pointing at the door.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgZzIJqxRH

"Don't do that, let me out for a second."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLT7uAl7jv

Jeong Tae-ui frowned, but with a smile and a face that seemed to be sufficiently brazen, pulled the doorknob obstinately.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFdOEd3d9K

The young man seemed confused for a moment as if he was embarrassed when the calm hostage suddenly forced him to leave, but soon grabbed Tae-ui's wrist as if he was burning with a sense of mission. However, Jeong Tae-ui smiled slightly at the clumsy gesture and shook his wrist lightly to shake it off.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhIxvch5Zw

When he missed it so easily, the young man seemed to be flustered and angry. After shouting something roughly. He guesses it's cheeky because people let it go. He crossed his wrists and grabbed Jeong Tae-ui by the collar. And very neatly threw away the static.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjyks5jITl

Oh, he is an actor who learns something.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKEz4DyjWM

Jeong Tae-ui thought as he flew in the air. Thinking about it, he kind of missed the timing to use the fall. He hit his butt against the stone floor.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4Ge8Zowft

"It hurts!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtcHBGXtQ0

Jeong Tae-ui let out a short scream. But he thought it might go far to the bathroom, so he turned it down and...took a painful breath. The young man murmured something behind his back, and slumped into a chair, recalling the indication that he could never get out of the way with his blunt face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL2hv5vtkB

Oh, it really hurts because it's a stone floor, but he's sorry that his buttocks became a cushion, and Jeong Tae-ui stood up rubbing his buttocks. With a throbbing hip and a limp, he walked towards the bedroom. When he glanced at the young man with resentment, the young man was staring at Jeong Tae-ui with a face full of mission.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj1Ygqysve

Jeong Tae-ui murmured to himself, "That's why young people are like that." Then he went out through the bedroom door into the courtyard. In the meantime, he sincerely hopes that the Arab man doesn't come out of the bathroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7AIZgS8Ha

Jeong Tae-ui walked slowly and quickly. The walk was almost running as he turned from the end of the courtyard to the outer corridor to the study.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mlESBYXCE

Jeong Tae-ui looked back for a moment. There was no sign of anyone chasing. But he didn't slow down. When he took out his hand that he had put in his pocket, he had a cell phone in his hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTVVZARZM5

"It's still useful. I thought my hands would be stiff because I haven't done it for a long time."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOCmAMODw6

"I think he's a little dull." muttering, and Jeong Tae-ui was glad that he wasn't the original watchman. Perhaps if it's the Arab man with the big sword who was originally standing by the door, he would not have succeeded so neatly. Jeong Tae-ui opened the flip of his cell phone, pretending to whistle silently.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt73QPDOCH3

His heart was pounding. He never knows when they'll come after him. Even just now, he might notice that the phone was missing from his arms and come right after him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1j4xLPys2

Where would be good? The best place to get rid of the person chasing him. A good place to be alone is a..... bathroom. But he can't go to the bathroom. At the same time, it was a place where he could be alone, and at the same time, it was a dead end where there was no way to escape.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9xwFmQw9m

As expected, is the best place to move? So that even if he chases me back, I can run recklessly and make a phone call while running away. Even if the phone was taken away during the call, it was best to create an environment where we could talk for as long as possible.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bm5vUATcB

His finger pressed the number he was memorizing. It is a number he has never called. However, he naturally memorized it because he had a lot of work to tell others his contact information while he was teaching.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyOL8TzC78

Ilay.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlm3E4w7Mn

For the first time, Jeong Tae-ui thanked the UNHRDO for its appointment as an instructor. Where could he contact without the instructor's phone number that automatically roams anywhere in the world?......unfortunately, Seringue is not categorized as an out-of-the-way place. No, that can't be true. Anyway, there was a normal cell phone in his hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iNpo7cPyf

Suddenly, his heart throbbed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7DFtZFQ4B

Come to think of it, how long has it been? Wait. What should I talk about? First of all, the most urgent thing is that I have to insist immediately to avoid a misunderstanding, saying, "I didn't run away."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhAGLH5slI

He doesn't think he ran away because he smashed an Arab, but he will never know. The sad voice that told him to really be prepared to die if he ran away twice crossed his mind. And the second thing he has to say is the location here. Jeong Tae-ui, who thought that far, bit his tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRKnMNCKxz

Jeong Tae-ui didn't know about the location here. It is certain that this is inside the villa owned by Raman, but what kind of detached house is in it? He can't even go out. But first of all, the highest place is probably the farthest from the entrance....but what's the use of saying it? He's not going to come in with Panzer Faust again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjU87YrRL2

......If he does that against the Arab royal family, his brother's military business will be severely disrupted.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b9YvCF5iX

Jeong Tae-ui shook his head shaking as he imagined Ilay carrying Panzer Faust over his shoulder in a modified Rewako. If he does that, there will be a series of Arabs holding the Quran in one hand.....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNaBucSt9D

What am I gonna say after that? Let's see, there was something more to say. Obviously there was something important left. What was that? Something, I think there was something to check.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b5q2dvjiW

But while Jeong Tae-ui was nervously thinking, the tone in the phone did not stop. Jeong Tae-ui clicked his tongue, saying, "Oh, my!" only after hearing the sound of the signal that did not break until after the turn. The possibility that he would not answer the phone was also negligible. He might have gone to the bathroom for a while, or he fell asleep or the battery is dead.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrAGAxBfi6

Pick it up. Pick it up.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C4M2Y37re

Jeong Tae-ui looked back for nothing even though he could not hear anything. Even if he's not the owner of the phone, if someone else sees him on the phone and shouts, it's over.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI08rJTPK5

However, when he is anxious like this, his wishes don't come true.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCtA14lhvv

No matter how many times the signal rang, there was no sign of answering the phone. The owner of the phone didn't give a voice until it eventually went to auto-answer. Jeong Tae-ui closed the flip with his tongue clapped. He knew that it was unlikely that he would answer the phone again if he called the phone again immediately, but he still called the same number again. The signal started ringing again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARNyDpDt2V

Jeong Tae-ui continued to move from the corridor to the bedroom, from the bedroom to the study, and from there to the courtyard again, contemplating where it was not a dead end. Meanwhile, the signal kept ringing without interruption. Nine, ten times, and this time again, it seemed to move on to automatic responses.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQrmwUwZPk

"......Damn it, pick it up, you lunatic!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdJUpqWKXr

Jeong Tae-ui was choked up with tears. Even though it was a low voice, it might go into other people's ears.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPSfiw3HhA

But it was loud enough to be heard beyond the phone.The voice would have been in the ear of the person who answered the phone just then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bVngOMSFC

".....Tae-ui?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts7Zy6ZhwR

A low, slow voice.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvoUNds8ZL

Jeong Tae-ui grabbed the phone without realizing it. Anxiety sprang to his mind at once.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqok6L1gu7K

A familiar voice. It is a voice that will come to mind clearly even after decades. Jeong Tae-ui clenched his lips and shouted in surprise.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lyjbk9QdR

"Where are you now?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxW6q2hOSS

"Uh, this isn't it." he thought for a second, but it didn't matter. At any rate, he's at a loss for words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsoWosnOOl

"TAE-UI...Where are you?''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gPsglOn5I

His voice changed on the phone. The low, slow voice instantly changes its light to that of a fierce, wild beast.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fBPhLSiHd

"Where are you, Tae-ui?Where are you now?.....TAE-UI!''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIzSVbEtZ6

Over and over again, the voice called Jeong Tae-ui's name. Jeong Tae-ui suddenly lost his words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgszE2ADgZ

"Uh......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSwClPuVX9

What shall I do?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbr9CnrPzx

He clenched his fist nervously. Suddenly, the color seemed to fade from my head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjaAqC7rDR

It's been a while since he heard that voice. He doesn't know what's going on over there, he doesn't know where he's going, he doesn't know where he's looking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOVI0Bepdr

Just vaguely looking for it, the reality that he thought like that is now starting to take on color clearly in his ears. Jeong Tae-ui became nervous for no reason. It was a different anxiety than the anxiety that someone might come after at any time. He felt empty in his head at the sudden strange sensation. He thought there was something to say. There was something to check. Before he came here, he had something to ask. He was afraid to ask, and he thought about what to do if he heard the expected answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcXqr4hvV4

What was that? That means.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnLYojSE7M

Jeong Tae-ui's palms were sweaty, so he switched the phone to the other hand. Wipe his hands nervously on the hem of his trousers.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYfex0UVBH

"TAE-UI, answer me!....Damn, you're in good shape. If you hurt yourself, you'll die.......Please answer me! TAE-UI, JEONG TAE-UI!...steady!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BYgGcmaPZ

Oh, again. This guy's pronunciation gets better sometimes.....Who taught you how to correct your pronunciation?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVxr0MDPSd

Jeong Tae-ui, who thought of a strange idea blankly, was listening to the voice that tickled his ears, and suddenly at some point, he did not even recognize what he was saying and said it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB1UEubFMi

"Hey, maybe I like you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNv4OpdQUI

Oh, this isn't it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK7OuLAPYA

As soon as he said it, he thought, "Oh, my!" But it's good anyway. He's at a loss for words. But what did he just say? He thinks he said something weird that he didn't think he'd say because there were slight signs of illness.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslZdiHBsw7

Jeong Tae-ui nervously touches his lips with his fingertips.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VF81SUm7a

There was a sudden pause on the phone. There was no sound from beyond.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfq4OqdIeB

"Oh, hello, hello! Hey, Ilay!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCbQcQSEFW

He wondered if the phone was cut off. It's hard to get cut off in this urgent situation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtKLfHJz7E

Jeong Tae-ui called out his name two or three times in embarrassment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yyStkivxx

At that time, he heard the noise, or he heard a buzz at the end of the corridor. The air turned to a murmur of footsteps and was drawing nearer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYTUdctHZE

Jeong Tae-ui quickly turned his steps in the opposite direction and increased his speed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcfyMabYwE

"Hey, what if it gets cut off now? I don't know when I can even call...Come on!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyvSYzBILU

"I'm listening. Hurry up and tell me where you are now."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCtTLRGjlW

"Oh, here, Raman's annex. It is a separate detached house, but I don't know where it is because I can't take a step in the detached house. But I heard it's in the highest place in the annex."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZgixX46uc

"The highest place in the annex......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GHw4LthQY

Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue. The sound of steps coming from behind seemed not to be a sign of accidental passage. Jeong Tae-ui was following him in the direction he was going. Jeong Tae-ui was also unable to suppress the sound of footsteps due to the increasing speed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyEl5xejBi

As he almost ran, Jeong Tae-ui glanced back. Then a figure was seen turning the corner of the corridor. The young man earlier, the owner of this phone.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQYAnav95J

As soon as the young man saw Jeong Tae-ui, he shouted something and came running red. And Jeong Tae-ui, who couldn't be caught naturally, ran without looking back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTM6TI6F7sa

"Damn it. Hey, I can't call you long. I think it's a little hard to get out of here. Raman is asking Jae-ui to make a weapon. He said he wouldn't let us go if he didn't. But he said he'd hide it in a dungeon and pretend he didn't know if there was pressure from outside.......anyway, so you won't see me for a while, but I didn't run away. I can't come out of nowhere."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugooLb7hsu

".....Damn it, it's hard to get out of there."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r9WK3APqn

There is a voice on the phone that seems a little anxious, but seems to be nothing different from usual. The somewhat lowered voice was perhaps angry.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMxBuOW2TU

Jeong Tae-ui shut up for a moment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyurT7JiuR1

It was a fact that he already knew. If it was easy to take it out from the outside, there was no reason for Jeong Jae-ui to be trapped in it so far. No matter how little Ilay Riegrow thinks, he can't come in here. If he messed with one royal family in the Middle East, it was a series of hives.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp5GArhCLg

"I know, I know. It's gonna take a while, but...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAwJkLoI7L

"Tae-ui, do you want to get out of there?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fEgjstLli

Suddenly, before Jeong Tae-ui said anything, Ilay said. Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K1D0btMge

"If only I could get out....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S4ofluNVS

Jeong Tae-ui shut up. The number of people who followed behind his back has already increased to two. To make matters worse, a person is popping out of the front. He didn't think he'd be able to defend the phone for long.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kwiSTypqN

''... yes, all right.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOziP7PX8qJ

The voice, which had been silent for a while as if in thought, soon fell heavily. And his slow, determined voice followed by the short, heavy answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeVLbtBh9Y

''But Tae-ui. Keep it in mind. I'll make sure I get my share back from you for that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfYAtdiQPZ

"What..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQN5neHAO6

Jeong Tae-ui lost his words along the way.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP1zVpzQTJ

Somehow he felt a thrill. A feeling of a mistake rose in his heart.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWna2HtVkww

Would it be like this if I cross a river that I can't come back to?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYO7T80fklP

Jeong Tae-ui murmured and ran breathlessly. However, the distance from the pursuers was gradually narrowing. He was confident in running, but there was nothing he could do better than chasing three people. Then one of the guys grabbed him by the shoulder.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAMcGtic2B

"Damn it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RCjDBj5be

Jeong Tae-ui muttered briefly and slapped the man in the face with a double whammy. It turned out to be the owner of the phone.I'm a little sorry.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIFEtTGIer

"TAE-UI? What are you doing?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiHhDewfPL

"I'm being chased, trying to make a phone call. Oh, damn it, I'll be caught soon."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4rWYm2F3n

Jeong Tae-ui gasped and answered briefly. Run, shake, call, he's dying of breath away. It was obvious that he was going to be caught soon. Jeong Tae-ui ran into the bathroom that was right in front of him. Rather than being caught soon, going into the bathroom and staging a sit-in can earn even a few more seconds.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3Kz00R3fw

Bang!

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDydh9vOKz

The door broke open and closed mercilessly. But just before locking the door, a man hit himself and couldn't latch it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9DsJP9SM8

"TAE-UI!...Damn it....... Don't hurt yourself as much as you want!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsGE9PqiDo

"Are you sick when I'm hurt? My god!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz90XLAwLm

His finger got caught in the crack of the door when he tried to close it. Tears welled up in his eyes. He cried more when he thought about what he was doing to make a phone call.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruqPTLelHx

How many seconds will it last? Maybe I'll never use the same number again after this call is cut off. Maybe it was the last outside passage before getting out of here. I think I had more to say. I think there was something to say.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwCFMrmSXz

Jeong Tae-ui thought nervously.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufBYIoswNQ

"Why do you hurt my feelings? Damn it, why would you go after him?...!"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo2DbICSMZ

Jeong Tae-ui, who was opening his mouth to say something, shrugged his shoulders at the harsh shouts coming from over the phone before he could even speak. He opened his eyes wide.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tkvQPABxU

He has seen this man angry many times. He saw him beating people like a dog, not just angry, and there was nothing new about the man's sad appearance anymore. However, it may be the first time to hear an angry voice while saying nonsense.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgPwseppog

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNED5xH185t

He suddenly remembered. What he had to say to this man. He should've checked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37nrgwW1cq

Jeong Tae-ui hesitated for a moment. He wanted to meet and talk to him in person if possible. So he wanted to see how that face changed.....Maybe, if he asks openly, he might reveal it like a monster right away, so it's wiser to ask on the phone when he's far away.......No, but it's a little.......

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GTHHau9Zy

However, the hesitation was that the bathroom door, which Jeong Tae-ui was holding out with all his might, opened wide by the power of the three men and flew away with urgency that rose in an instant.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqiCUfEltX

"Ilay, you......do you happen to like me?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3CoN6Hddw

Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue again. This isn't it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZvrK7WI1a

No, that's exactly what he meant to ask. However, there might have been room for a more casual spin, but it was so urgent that he shouted out suddenly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdTnbIaDJf

But no answer was given. Maybe he didn't hear it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiepNhLmHOU

Beyond the phone, before waiting for a brief, caught-off silence to end, the young man who was beaten earlier took the phone and hung up.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXhVxz2X6R

"Hey! That was the most important thing. Why did you cut it off?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwFbyL8NDB

Jeong Tae-ui roared heavily at the men. The young man, who could not understand Jeong Tae-ui's yelling, and who was also the victim of the phone theft, looked angry to the tip of his head. Perhaps he was beaten up by that original watchman, the Arab man he followed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkFJN9fTK2

Along with the young man's outrageous swear words fortunately, Jeong Tae-ui did not understand the swear words. He had to receive the young man's angry fist intact.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9AZTMfbye

***

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHiiAroipg

Jeong Tae-ui sighed looking in the mirror.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vf8mnHSgI

There is a black bruise on the face and right temple, and both eyes are plump. His lips got ripped, it has blood on top of it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKB7qHmP1k

"I don't blame others for being inhumane.......Is there any other sight in the world as inhumane as this face?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX2MuXngfi

Jeong Tae-ui murmured, rubbing his face in the mirror. If he touches it hard, it hurts, depending on the wound, it hurts just by touching it, gently, carefully rubbing it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVBDP1cRga

He asked for some ointment, but the men didn't listen. Eventually, he pretended to be poor to the white girl who was passing by and secretly got one. In the Arab world, they kept the iron rule that they should never talk to women recklessly, and he was crouching next to the pond in the middle, pretending to be very sick when the girl passed by, and thankfully, she secretly left a small ointment tube on the bed table.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsIjZiv9yT

Seeing that, Jeong Jae-ui said admiringly, "You should sell the ship to the people here." Jeong Tae-ui also thought seriously, "Should I?" and shook his head. He has no stomach for arms and belly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKwNSu8XIr

In fact, his face was so obviously damaged that he didn't get hurt much.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aZWQan3hR

The young man seemed to want to die young, but at the point of moderate tapping, the watchman standing behind him stopped him. Although the actual form was the victim of kidnapping and confinement, the nominal form was a precious guest. It seems that it is impossible to hit such a precious customer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTQdI0HlBZ

The Arab man, who was not an ordinary wager, had a very good timing to stop him. Jeong Tae-ui, who was beaten enough by the young man, stopped the young man at a time when he was slowly thinking, "I think I paid for my crime at this point, but should I get hit more?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN61osPQWEl

"But I'm glad he didn't use his own fists..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmF5onvbEj

Jeong Tae-ui groaned while applying medicine. It's been a few days since he got hit like that, and it still hurts.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwKS5tU24o

Jeong Tae-ui, who had been left unattended for a while after being beaten and found the medicine in the bedroom late last night, was about to apply it once before going to bed yesterday, wash his face now, and eat.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiw79URwkQ

The beaten wound was not very noticeable on the day of the hit, but after a few days of holding it, the wound was very ripe. It's a very inhumane molar. The next day, when he was beaten a few days ago, he went to the restaurant with a disheveled face and sat down, and Jeong Jae-ui, who was eating first, saw Jeong Tae-ui's face, opened his eyes wide and put down his spoon.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uaVyD621y

Jeong Tae-ui's face, which had already been beaten up, was the source. So he thought there would be no surprise, but Jeong Tae-ui immediately nodded. He woke up from a sleep and thought his face was more swollen.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49DTC1dJoR

"Is my face swollen a lot?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOl1BeNcGv

Jeong Tae-ui, who couldn't even see the mirror because he just washed his face after waking up, had no way of knowing what his face was like. When he muttered, "It doesn't hurt much." and asked Jeong Jae-ui as if nothing had happened, Jeong Jae-ui nodded and said quietly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sv6rtFAeO

"Tae-ui. When you were on vacation, you fought with your colleague named Kim So-wi."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TrLiRmOT7

"Oh? Oh, there was."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY967Y9NGO

Jeong Tae-ui frowned, citing a name that was not very pleasant from the morning. But on the other hand, now that much of the name sounds cute. Still, he was very human in his own way.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkxktCaPuk

"You're more swollen than then."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB76DRbfxhN

"....... I'm scared to look in the mirror."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCtZRZ7RUr

Jeong Tae-ui slowly rubbed his face and muttered "aya, aya." and ate.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKbyWDd5vW

And when he came back to his room and saw his face, it was very colorful.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlapztq4Ir

After a few days, the blue bruise turned into a mixture of purple and yellowish light, making it even more colorful. The pain is much better than then, but it still hurts when he touches it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueZamuZ4JA

"If you want to hit me, you have to pick a place that doesn't show on the outside and it hurts on the inside and hit me well. What is this? It shows on the outside and the body is smooth. That's why I like young people....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRb5DCnc4o

Maybe if he had been hit by a watchdog, he would have been hit like that. Or if the young man had hit him like that because he was good, the watchman would have watched a little longer and stopped him slowly. After applying the ointment, Jeong looked in the mirror again. There was a very good face in it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIboGfMpU5Q

Jeong Tae-ui's medicine is so small that he applied it twice last night and this morning, but he was unfortunately touching the ointment tube that he had already used up and threw it into the trash can. He missed the tiger ointment that Luther loves.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lAkvEWqQZ

He sighed and went out. He thought he'd go to the study room and read a book. However, Jeong Tae-ui, who was taking a step, paused and stopped. This is because he could see the back of just entering the study from a distance.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCONjT44wYz

It's Raman.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfaZ4jKREY

When he tucked his head into the room and looked at the clock, it was time for him to come.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeVlwX8HuJ

Jeong Tae-ui frowned slightly. He thought about what to do for a while and turned to the courtyard. Next to the rubber tree inside the courtyard, he could see the inside obliquely through the window of the study. He stayed there for a while and looked at the inside movements, and after Raman went back, he thought he would go to study.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKICKwOHtl

Raman stopped by the annex every day.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsmHV9Fzta

According to Jae-ui, he came more often before Jeong Tae-ui came, but these days, he has become less frequent. But he shook his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto2wm4brXN

In fact, he didn't have much business. It's always the same thing to say for business. "Have you come up with the idea of making weapons?" And Jeong Jae-ui's answer to that was always the same. He just shakes his head without saying a word.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntSLDxLTif

"I think I can memorize everything without making a mistake."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJOIWpRuqp

Jeong Tae-ui sat under a tree, raising his head and muttering while looking at the leaves.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRajGRHrBXR

As he glanced at the window, he could see Jeong Jae-ui shaking his head. Then, Raman's voice flows out from time to time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8lGmh7HYK

"Don't you feel uncomfortable staying here without getting out of here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfi4oVBkzq

There is a slight change today, though. The basic form of that word was ''If you don't make weapons, I won't let them you of here.''

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA8NF2VYji

"No, thank you. Thanks to your careful consideration, there's nothing uncomfortable about it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qrya55ibs

Jeong Jae-ui's quiet voice follows.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cgEWYyyOS

Jeong Tae-ui smirked. After Raman's words about whether he was uncomfortable or not, of course, he had to be followed by a word that he would let him go so that he would not be uncomfortable if he complied with his demands. However, if such an answer is returned, there is nothing to say.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspllmH4h42

Indeed, Raman's voice was briefly interrupted.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohpWvN9CYR

Jeong Tae-ui laughed quietly, thinking that he might have a troubled face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE5ZaOrUi4

He thought about what it would look like if the cold-looking man, who has a soft smile but doesn't smile with his eyes, made an awkward face, but he couldn't imagine it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRHnJuBJjP

But...

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJx8WecKgGN

"But I'm glad he's polite for now."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0EDNntNv2

Jeong Tae-ui murmured quietly in his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisPm6ZBT3l

He has been in vain for months. In other words, while taking Jeong Jae-ui and catching him generously provides all kinds of convenience and fulfilling everything he wants except going out, his demands are not being met. For quite a few people, patience could have reached its limit. In addition, there was no promise of when to accept it, so he could be threatened or forced to produce weapons by rough means.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7ONy4tkYt

However, he treated Jeong Jae-ui with the utmost courtesy and courtesy.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6hAAXHCY7

Jeong Tae-ui did not like him, but he was grateful for that. (But on the other hand, he wondered why he should thank him)

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi2RE5YWvD

But is it urgent to develop the weapon?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccPuy30avw

Even if it was not an urgent matter right now, it would not have been possible to keep waiting without a promise. However, there was no sign of impatience when he visited this place every day and asked Jeong Jae-ui about his intention.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mJp0RTaCw

"......Please let me know if you change your mind at any time. Until then, please be comfortable. Do you need anything?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhxiNJ09RZ

The usual conversation continued in the study. Now, the formal conversation has come to an end.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMejX5uckcW

"Oh, then I'd like a book, please. The book that I wrote it down here. And since my hair is slowly getting messy, could you call the barber again? It would be bothersome to call it often for nothing, so it would be better to cut it very short if you call a barber this time."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXgpOekq0Y

My brother is strong in his own way.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoS4NePTvf

Because of his casual and quiet appearance, those who had not experienced Jeong Jae-ui a few times often mistook him for an introverted and delicate person. And although Jeong Jae-ui was of course introverted and delicate, the direction was a little different from what people usually thought.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2w4GaCriS

However, unlike Jeong Tae-ui, who was accompanied by a slip of the tongue, Jeong Jae-ui was a "precious guest" although he was kidnapped and imprisoned. Until now, Jeong Jae-ui sometimes spoke freely if he wanted something like this, and the words were immediately implemented even a few days later.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSisWqQmR8G

Suddenly, Jeong Tae-ui patted his cheek and bit his tongue bitterly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqNhEYC5Id

There is nothing to be unfair about, but within a few days after Jeong Tae-ui was trapped here, Jeong Jae-ui, who was lost in thought while touching a surprise box with a spring installed, was hit by a spring that popped out of nowhere and bruised his cheeks.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yFtBYruPo

The next day, Raman visited Jeong Jae-ui as usual, and saw him, and in a moment he erased a smile from his face, frowned furiously, there was a girl in white clothes with a watchman and a girl in a separate house for Jeong Jae-ui called for. It was an unintelligible word, but he remembered him being quite mean when he saw the girl, scolded, shaking, quickly holding her medicine and bowing her head at her feet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQLOmZZH30

The attitude of Jeong Jae-ui, who did not say much even though he looked embarrassed, was unexpected, so he asked him later, and he said that there was a similar thing once in the past. At that time, he cut his jaw slightly while shaving, and despite Jae-ui's own mistake, another girl was attached to the market from that day on. When Jeong Jae-ui said a few words, Raman shook his head and said, "If I had changed the razor blade well, I wouldn't have been hurt. It's a rare guest, but it shouldn't be sloppy." he said firmly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kRXhkp9Uh

Since then, Jeong Jae-ui has told Jeong Tae-ui, who looks at him with a startled face, that he is careful not to get hurt.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6fzYbXCZD

"I don't know the whole system of thinking in this country......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpabws7nIoT

Jeong Tae-ui sighed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7bU5LHE1X

Anyway, it was perfect to accept Jeong Jae-ui as a valuable guest.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcMjPeHCth

Jeong Tae-ui rubbed his face completely different from the original version and bit his tongue bitterly. No matter how much it comes with, it's a different attitude.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL52fqDi52

Jeong Tae-ui was happy that Jeong Jae-ui brought up the story of the barber because he could not call the barber if he asked for it. Even so, he couldn't get a haircut because he didn't have time for a while, but he thought if he called a barber, he would ask him to cut it with him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9JHjU8lOw

In the future, if he needs anything, he will ask his brother for a "valuable guest." Let's ask for some medicine first, and do I need anything else?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg5jh2B8F7

......If he needs a phone call...Even if it's him, it won't work.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOGtzPobIF

Jeong Tae-ui sighed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea7yDGmgLO

He was beaten up a little too much for a minute or two at the most.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVztS5HBG5X

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lH1TIBUZz

Jeong Tae-ui felt awkward and scratched his neck.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SYHAYkaHF

That night, while rubbing his broken face, he thought he said a lot of strange things. And worse, he didn't hear a proper answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ1BmAJpIE

Do you like me?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WDsFI2hmx

Come to think of it, it's something that a self-conscious patient would say. If it really is, but if it is not, he had to pound his own mouth with a stone.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYgJphLMOR

What kind of reaction did he have when he heard that?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZpvqoa2oN

It was a bit disappointing. He wanted to see the face in person. Then Jeong Tae-ui might have learned more from the reaction.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq2XBJVoOf

"No, it's not. It would have been better not to hear the answer. No, I'm sorry. Maybe I wasn't asking. No matter what the answer is, it's not a thing."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt5VfaN9m2

Jeong Tae-ui tore his hair out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMbhH7yhYr

Yes, that was the reason why he didn't ask right away even though he thought at first glance several times before. If he says no, it means he's over-conscious. If he says so.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXBA7kS75v

......Then the situation was entering a more frightening phase.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYqOT9kbbQ

Jeong Tae-ui sighed while pulling out his hair. He doesn't know. He's a long way from getting out of here anyway, and he doesn't think anything's coming right now. He had plenty of time to think. In addition, if he were stuck here for about a decade or so, the answer was not the problem.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAwwaU1R7G

How much longer do I have to stay here?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcj5MffFqz

Jeong Tae-ui was lost in thought for a while and looked toward the study. In it, there were two people with keys to get out of here. It was a door that wouldn't open unless one of them gave it away anyway.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaBSz9ZJTB

"It's almost time to go......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYfp8A3BxT

The usual conversation took a turn, and it was time for Raman to go back. When Jeong Jae-ui handed him a note that said what he needed and received it, he only had to say a few words and go back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc2XXogAMl

".......Don't you want to get out of here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDifshxn7a2

Raman said after a moment of silence. That's what he said earlier. Jeong Tae-ui raised his eyebrows listening to the voice. Once asked, there has never been a time when a word is asked again within that day. Nevertheless, asking again, did his situation become urgent?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVNwhwjNHd

He didn't think there was a sign like that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEigg1gZlW

"Thanks to you, I'm comfortable, so I'm fine."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjDjL2WInl

Jae-ui also gives a similar answer as before. As for Raman, he continued a little slower.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBkczhXr8o

"I'm sure it'll be less lonely after your brother comes. Do you get along very well?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ti4ipfjMN

"Yeah, well….thanks to you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ogywwp2ZN

Hey, my answer is a bit off the mark. Thanks to him, we are on good terms, and we are not less lonely thanks to you, who locked up my brother.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0dIHny9Ys

Jeong Tae-ui lost all his strength. However, soon after the silence, Jeong Tae-ui came out of the study, leaving a greeting, and slowly walked toward the study. Jeong Tae-ui, who was climbing the stairs of the courtyard, regretted that he should have stood up a little later.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0XuKYgdQc

Coming out of the study, Raman paused in the corridor and was lost in thought. As Jeong Tae-ui approached, he felt the sign and gave a glance.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5VgCssr0m

Jeong Tae-ui hesitated, frowning, and slowing down.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB4WOOAEQL

He didn't want to get close. It's not just the way he feels.....Raman's gaze at Jeong Tae-ui was icy. It is so cold that it suddenly occurs to him that he might wield a knife at that moment when he gets close.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3hlsMM5E2

However, Jeong Tae-ui walked as slowly as possible because it would be more awkward if he stopped and confronted him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qHK9xPImj

"They said you spoke to Riegrow on the phone."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSv9F6HnFC

"If it's not in Seringue......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUoqvFXEyL

Raman opened his mouth. At the signal, Jeong Tae-ui stopped walking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCkH9k3xPF

He thought the news would have already gone. It was impossible for him to hear that he tried to talk to the outside world. Jeong Tae-ui, who looked suspicious for a while when the name Riegrow came out, soon became convinced. It's easy to find out the other person since there are numbers left.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpBXNKax8t

"I thought you said it's no use asking for help from the outside, but you've done something useless."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmerk5kxDsM

"...What...Just hearing my friend's voice after a long time gives me energy."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr4xqrer5r

Jeong Tae-ui said with a calm smile while counting how many parts are in his own words. His "friend" Ilay gives him "energy".

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6ajyar2c9

Raman raised his eyebrows. Then he pretended to think for a moment and opened his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezSpcXYXD9

"Friends. I see. I think it was Ilay Riegrow and Ling Shinru. Coming to Seringue with you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2JXhTXpCq

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFuQJLRGuN

"They are no longer in Seringue."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KgWRXa4XO

Raman said calmly. And at the end of the word, Jeong Tae-ui's expression briefly disappeared from his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKo77kVKdy

For a moment, he thought he misunderstood English. He obviously said, "They are no longer in Seringue."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuGSsaPySB

Jeong Tae-ui frowned slightly. He couldn't understand the word at first glance, so he tilted his head for a moment.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozFcO0cVGP

He poked his finger in. He called Ilay a few days ago. It hasn't been that long. It was not easy to pick up quickly because there were a series of monotonous days with no changes or unusual things, but it was three, or four days. It hasn't even been a week yet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cJjrZLwiy

"If it's not in Seringue......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4hjNxepgr

Jeong Tae-ui closed his mouth as he spoke. He looked up suspiciously at him, looking down coldly as if he were looking at his expression before his eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkJpVOnTjX

It didn't seem like a lie....If then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94nlfUU2ON

"Did you use your hands?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi2fpizvK2

"Me? You're welcome. They went out on their own feet. Ling Shinru, a few days after you came here, he's been out for quite a while, and Riegrow was out three days ago. There was also a man named Yuri Gable. He took Ling Shinru out. He said he needed someone to help him because he couldn't move properly."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGCCNMW3nd

"What? What?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lUQUCEInu

Jeong Tae-ui stared at him blankly, blinking his eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhRN8QWiq6

A smile-like expression flashed over Raman's face, which was talking indifferently. The cool smile penetrates Jeong Tae-ui's heart.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHi9RsbdMN

"There was a quarrel between Ling Shinru and Riegrow. The cause, well, I don't know about that, but I heard that Ling Shinru was hurt quite badly and went to a dangerous level.....you wouldn't be able to see them for a while anyway, so I wouldn't say it would hurt to hear that your friend was hurt."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrkoYvdmUf

In a subtle tone, he sounded like he knew something more, but he didn't seem to want to talk anymore.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oQVPn4aPt

"No, uh......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglnsCsKcwG

Jeong looked blankly at his lips. He opened his mouth and tried to say something, but he couldn't say anything. He couldn't think of a proper word because my head was momentarily complicated.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fxwtou6to

They're no longer in Seringue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXX6z7gcNw

I heard that Ling Shinru was hurt quite badly and went to a dangerous level.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86nK8hGrx4

It was a few days ago that Jeong Tae-ui called Ilay. At that time, Ling Shinru was already a long time after he was injured. But Ilay didn't say anything about him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukuRTnGp8t

No, he could understand that. He was not the kind of person to say that Ling Shinru was hurt on purpose or that he was hurt by fighting with him. The same is true of the reason for the fight. Originally, they were not on good terms, so they could fight as much as they wanted over trivial things. Jeong Tae-ui was able to make up hundreds of reasons for their fight in his seat.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5idATSFAfq

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2qCTV3JDv

He doesn't know if it's because of course. Why did Ilay go out? His head was unable to accept the sudden remarks. Jeong Tae-ui looked at him blankly. Raman smiled faintly at the sight of such a calmness. Jeong Tae-ui finally realized that he said it because he wanted to see his face like this.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5sYljI1CF

Raman hated Jeong Tae-ui very much. Maybe it's close to hatred. But why?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6zRDzpyv9

But now, that sort of thing didn't matter.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6NM45Dp49

"I have to...I have to get out."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpkxmdGA5f

Jeong Tae-ui murmured in a bewildering manner. Raman looked silently at his expressionless face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpddDeQ76v3

His eyes narrowed with satisfaction, and he said calmly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4B6AeIY1b

"I'm sorry about that. I can't let you do that."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvL1QmZuim

***

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHAlZJDY0e

In fact, if he thinks about it, it was already late, and it could have been new.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r3U17FLYU

He has already been approaching Dalpo since he entered this place. However, if Ilay had injured Shinru shortly after he entered this place, it would have already been concluded somehow now. Either he has already recovered cleanly, or he's still feeling uncomfortable, but he has recovered moderately. Or even the worst, the conclusion is already made anyway. Even if Jeong Tae-ui went out and looked at it, nothing would have changed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftII4yeZuM

Nevertheless.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4UVMdnbjC

Jeong Tae-ui rubbed his mouth and chin with one hand. He couldn't help it himself that anxiety was on his hands. What a dangerous situation, how dangerous was it? What about now? Will it be okay? Wouldn't it be?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmtDqRMkVb

He said Ilay got out of here. After finishing the phone call with Jeong Tae-ui, he hardly interrupted. Where did he go? He left this place.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz5eyyBFtf

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zb8l21NPM

He couldn't come to a conclusion even when he thought about it. On the contrary, tens of thousands of speculations bloom and disturb the mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQdhhiqlMN

A disordered mind appeared at the fingertips. The fingers rubbing the lips were nervously strained.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOHFp03g2z

He wanted to go out. Right now, he wants to get out of here. And yet he's caught without a promise. No, maybe he can put up with it right now. He could have put up with it if he were stuck here for a few more days and left. Reason has already informed us that he will not change even if he goes out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06E4yukG6u

However, the fact that he doesn't know when he can go out made him feel anxious.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBuACDWM1Q

It wouldn't have happened much. It wouldn't have been a minor injury if Gable had to help him out. Anyway, if there was Gable, he would have prevented it somehow before something serious happened.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JNeqX3s5E

......please.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaj1BP9TLo

Jeong Tae-ui felt pain at one point and frowned. He seems to have been lost for a while. When he came to his senses, he was biting the second joint of his index finger. The lid was slightly peeled off, and it was swollen and tingling. Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg8BsoYCZo

"Calm down, Jeong Tae-ui. You know that. There's no way to be agitated. Calm down."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOcvccpxMe

He tapped on his chest. On his heart, tap it a little hard. However, the idea of burning the heart black did not stop.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnClzy20bL

Jeong Tae-ui sighed and got up. Maybe it's all the more because he's sitting around in a dark bedroom. He thought it would be better to stick his head in the pond until he fainted because he was suffocated.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH4WBp6eux

Jeong Tae-ui took a deep breath and went out of the room. However, he was a little surprised while stepping into the corridor. The sun was setting before he knew it. Jeong Tae-ui looked at the setting sun with a little embarrassment. He didn't know time had passed like this. Without knowing the passing of time, he sat in the bedroom and was constantly mesmerized.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz2xT8b4q7

"I'm telling you, you have to get your act together, Jeong Tae-ui. Calm down."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfXy3hrKE2

Jeong Tae-ui bit his tongue.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lpltw0iVG

It wasn't good. He knew how much it was bad for him to be carried away and immersed in unsolvable worries. Pain eats into the mind and makes him sick without realizing it or not.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNtmhhVDRP

Jeong Tae-ui again tapped the area near the heart a few times, harder than before. Then, he suddenly found a familiar figure in the middle. It is Jeong Jae-ui who sits upright and looks up at the sky. Dozens of birds were flying in the sky at the bottom of the sea. He was looking at the birds.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt8KuEaxaK

Maybe someone was raising it. Someone staying in a building close to the detached house would have taken a long time to feed the wild birds. The birds, who are accustomed to the gathering given at a fixed time, gather there at the bottom of the sea like this, and turn round as someone swings a long pole. A flock of birds that draw a big circle above the sky and swirl around. From somewhere, he heard an old sound of whipping birds.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ140YBqa5rT

A flock of birds passed over Jae-ui's head. The sound of a flap above his head was mingled and passed by countless times.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEN6s3KEDb

He liked the scene. Jeong Tae-ui also liked it, but Jeong Jae-ui probably liked it much more than him. Sitting there at this time of the day, he waited for them to pass overhead. May the sound of the wings over your head pass by.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1fZ3jBUXU

He certainly wouldn't complain if he stayed here all his life locked up like this. He was able to live here as he wished.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrEYwJQ6tx

Jeong Tae-ui stared at him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JMg55aPRi

Slowly he approached the middle station. He may have heard the footsteps, but Jeong Jae-ui did not look back at him. In this short time, not too long, perhaps, with those birds, he was completely wet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzHG5PVZhL

Jeong Tae-ui sat a few steps away from him. And he also listened to the sounds overhead. A magnificent and refreshing sound, perhaps tens of thousands of sheets of paper, fluttered overhead. One more time. After a long time. From time to time, he can hear a group of people whirring from across the sunset.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobSz9DHaYi

It was not long before the sun went down. As soon as the sun went by as fast as the fingernails, it became dark.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9RjD5coKH

Someone went in beyond the fence, and the birds dispersed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM5zuShQuQ

There was only the sky, which had turned purple and gradually darkened, and the sky was turning deeper and deeper and deeper.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9bLuvHKbe

"Hair, it doesn't look that long. It's a little longer than usual, but it doesn't look messy...but if you call a barber, I'll ask him to cut my hair, too."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGzJfqZ4Dw

Jeong Tae-ui looked at Jeong Jae-ui with his head tilted and said suddenly. Jeong Jae-ui still looks at the empty sky, but only then does he look at Jeong Tae-ui. Come to think of it, he didn't meet Jae-ui after breakfast. It's because he has been in the bedroom all day.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HizqYckGa

In this detached house, which is not very wide and has a limited radius of activity, we usually encounter it several times even if we don't have to be together during the day, but even so, it was not strange if they never met. Jeong Jae-ui sometimes did not come out of the room for several days when he focused on something, and Jeong Tae-ui was not much different.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MXnKgtZut

"The barber..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra0ZkUF80h

Jeong Jae-ui murmured as if he were somewhere else. Jeong Tae-ui adds, "Oh," only after hearing the words that sound like he doesn't know what it means.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLkfHmQqx5

"I was going to study in the morning, but he went in first, so I waited in the courtyard. You asked him to call a barber. You said you'd cut it short."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq91Wo78HiQ

"Yes, that's right.......I don't know if I shouldn't have called you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2wsTwXTaY

Jeong Jae-ui murmured quietly. Jeong Tae-ui shrugged his shoulders as he watched him closely.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FZAKX9ZF0

"You don't want to cut it anymore? Then I'll cut my hair. I thought it was annoying because my bangs came down."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkklXalaKNr

"That's not true...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cliU9p5LM

Jeong Jae-ui opened his mouth and stopped talking. And then he looked at Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCkm1ijdQZ

In the dim air that was getting darker, Jeong Jae-ui's expression remained calm. As if he had been lost in thought for a long time, and still in thought, he saw Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaPdK6AngA

"......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0ECkxDFQ4

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him with a quizzical look. He knew that look on his face. There was something he wanted to say, but he couldn't organize his thoughts. No, or he may be thinking about how to speak, although his thoughts have been organized.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPeLafrpcY

"......Why. Tell me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wfYZ8VVdK

"Shall we go out, Tae-ui?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATmy0mfQ7U

When Jeong Tae-ui nodded and opened his mouth first, Jeong Jae-ui spoke quietly without hesitation.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMLexocF9u

Jeong Tae-ui shut up. He'd say he lost his words for a moment. He gazed at Jeong Jae-ui with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he wondered why, and he realized it soon.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3idyBMXYaP

The conversation between Raman and Jeong Tae-ui was probably heard by him, too. If he thinks about it, it's inevitable. The annex itself was an open space. There were doors or shutters, but there was no meaning other than to distinguish them.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe2SMNecJk

".......Do you want to go out?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckAqHv1pQg

Jeong Tae-ui thought for a while and asked him back without answering. Jeong Jae-ui murmured, "Well, I don't know."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F7Vn87aEI

"I've never wanted to go out, but I've never wanted to stay here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVPMpiyHYE

"Well….then shall we go out?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw9Rurbmy6

"If you wish."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2esbG2xypO

His answer was concise. Jeong Tae-ui stared at him, and at some point, he slightly frowned and scratched his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK7wY0rtJX

"It's good to go out, but how are you going to go out?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPomR90dEa

"Well......somehow."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrdZf1lquu

Jeong Jae-ui did not show much concern. While staring blankly at him, Jeong Tae-ui smiled.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIEOIWyhk0

Indeed, Jeong Tae-ui did not remember seeing Jeong Jae-ui agonize. Although there may be some kind of choice in front of him and he may be silently lost in thought, the "concern" with the meaning of suffering was not up to Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RctTioBte

Come to think of it, Jeong Jae-ui was a person who didn't have to worry about anything as far as Jeong Tae-ui knew. What was wanted was done in some way. It was like a daily routine for him to make a fuss and rejoice that it was a miracle. So, maybe even now, if he wanted to, there might be an earthquake nearby and the wall collapsed, so he could walk out without any difficulty. though he was still unconvinced that he was bringing such luck to him

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUavoxCv2N5

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHgOJIe5Uy

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him with a sigh of laughter.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WtujkGVRn

However, his luck did not come as he expected. He always envisions a way to accomplish something when he wants it. Then it was his luck in everyday life that it went smoothly. Therefore, Jeong Tae-ui immediately realized why he brought up these words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7nLZjNUzj

"Are you going to make a weapon?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHNBpL6wxi

Jeong Tae-ui asked quietly. Jeong Jae-ui did not answer. He just looked at him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY7yxAm1Zv

Jeong Tae-ui smiled calmly. A quiet sigh is mixed in the laughing breath.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekw5qv1kW9

"If it's because of me that you want to go out. Doing something you don't want. You don't have to."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzjz4qib7m

Actually, he wanted to go out. It would have been nice if he could get out of here right now. But to do that, he hated that he had to force Jeong Jae-ui to do what he didn't want. Jeong Jae-ui did not immediately return an answer. Instead, an unknown gaze came.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtI8vL7Pls

Jeong Tae-ui frowned slightly because he could not understand the meaning of the subtle gaze. Then Jeong Jae-ui sighed silently.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e4KzcIDcb

"You're a little wrong. I'm not that determined, and I'm not really a moral person. I don't mind making weapons if I don't mind. If I don't hate it and I like it, I can do it as much as I want. But because it doesn't, I just said I wouldn't make any more weapons."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1sBslAPs4

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him with a strange face. For a while, he just blinked and stared at him blankly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvSeJ5D7lF

It wasn't that he didn't know what he was saying. He was able to make some sense. Obviously, as he said, Jeong Jae-ui had such a corner. Nature itself was not very crooked, but it was not a strong and straight will, and sometimes moral ethics were vaguely blurred.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopSPFbMXg2

Jeong Jae-ui, who was looking at Jeong Tae-ui's strange face, quietly added a word.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4fU6iQfyi

"If you want to get out, but you think you'll stay here because of me, I want to get out of here for you, even if I don't want to."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvfYeQubvU

".......But the truth is, I don't want to make a weapon."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWqtjNe6eR

"If you don't care, I'm fine. I just didn't want to because you wouldn't like it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPqDvxpwk3

"...um...Obviously, I don't like making weapons. But you know......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxa6IN9j12

Jeong Tae-ui frowned. Before he knew it, Jeong Tae-ui murmured helplessly, rubbing his fingertips between his wrinkled brows.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCUjyshnZi

"You're a little wrong, too. I definitely didn't want my brother to make weapons, and when I met you, I tried to pinch your cheek. But... I don't hate you. It's a separate matter."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzAJw8hF5S

Jeong Jae-ui did not say anything for a moment. Look at Jeong Tae-ui with slightly wide open eyes. Jeong Tae-ui smiled bitterly at him. He was like, "What? You really didn't know?" Then Jeong Jae-ui laughed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieogf2ckcQ

Jeong Tae-ui suddenly shut up. His heart shrank numbly. When was it? Who said it?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC83JdBnAOn

Is it that Jeong Jae-ui suffers more anxiety and anguish than you do? That's human.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGDCdw7w64

Yeah, it was Ilay.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZjRjhAp4d

Maybe he saw Jeong Tae-ui from the outside, that he couldn't see from his seat.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkpcsI2WV2

Each man had his place. And there are things that can only be seen on the spot, and there are things that can never be seen on the spot. And Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUevaEMoU8

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWNATyjL9e

He didn't even know it was a little disappointing. Some aspects of Jae-ui's that he couldn't see, he was sorry. It must have been beautiful and affectionate.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPHbAWxbTO

It was an aspect that only he had to endure, which others could not touch. So he was sad.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifMnBf31Pn

But.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8SiU88sx4

He was satisfied with the position. It was the most appropriate seat from Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5GRkHK8eN

He liked that kind of place. He has never wanted the closest to anyone or anyone. The most appropriate distance. Each person hoped for a different position.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUfu8ZLZKR

"If it's you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LAt0xXkqK

At one point, Jeong Jae-ui opened his mouth. Looking at Jeong Tae-ui without taking his eyes off for a moment, he quietly asked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQYuFl845E

"If you're in my place. Then you'll make a weapon and get out of here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeohR39fJo

He did not answer. He was lost in thought for a moment. It didn't take too long to come to a conclusion. But even after the thought, he couldn't answer. As he said, he did not want Jeong Jae-ui to follow. And Jeong Jae-ui, and Jeong Tae-ui, knew that silence was the answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFze4qnubOI

***

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclRgB7jYFu

Should we go out, Tae-ui?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjKy5fX4zK

"Uh...Yeah......"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMNKXcaQhW

It was only after Jeong Tae-ui answered that way that he realized that he was alone there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7qVqYhCVi

It was a bedroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlphoeJn42

"Huh...?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOmVnDhbd3

It was not until Jeong Tae-ui answered that he realized that he was alone there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJORUTNMHEj

It was a bedroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ269SG38xY

"Huh...?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYaD3UXHQX

Jeong Tae-ui murmured blankly again. Huh? muttered for the third time, he turned his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUgnP3BvJL

There was no one. Obviously, he heard a voice talking like that just a moment ago, but he was lying alone in the bedroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvsghHRQC5

Only then did he realize he had a dream. The dream he had just before he woke up was very vivid.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XMGIwYbC9

"Ah..." and Jeong Tae-ui sat up, breathing out a sigh or a stretch. Sweeping his disheveled hair, he closed his eyes half-closed, and reached out to the side and groped. The glass water bottle that was placed on the table next to the bed was caught.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTM4cpYsOqo

While holding up the water bottle, putting his mouth directly to the beak and drinking water, he thought in a corner of his dim head, "If I get caught by Rita, I'll be scolded a lot." Then, with his slowly waking head, he reassures himself that there is no Rita.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbPbOYqC7z

He slowly passed the water to his throat and drank three or four sips, and he came to his senses a little.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PitO3zHIT

And only then did Jeong Tae-ui remember that the voice he heard in his dream a while ago was not just a dream.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejxx6j4QQ2

Should we go out, Tae-ui?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYUzni0cGs

As it is said, Jeong Jae-ui told Jeong Tae-ui without a single mistake.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxivjd7HS5

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhtNS6YKDT

It didn't come to a conclusion in the end. Without barking at any conclusions exactly, they met a stark darkness there. We talked about something until the stars that were about to pour again over our heads were crisp.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMytlYEkE5

He thought it was a story that didn't matter at all, and it didn't matter. Just like it used to be when it was just the two of us. It was a calm time, a little nostalgic.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3MRiSlHpp

Jeong Tae-ui scratched his head. After putting the glass water bottle in one hand down on the table again, he sat blankly for a while, and then came out of bed feeling the movement outside.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn5h7tU9xb

The time was a little earlier than usual. The early morning air is still lingering. However, it was not that early in the morning, but slowly the unique fresh air of the morning was digging through the early morning air.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXTHMhqvSD

Jeong Tae-ui, who stepped out of the bedroom, stood in the corridor where the air of dawn and morning was mixed and looked. In the middle, the pond was still filled with water without waves. Above it were yellow and red flowers, one by one, floating like lotus flowers. Maybe it wasn't long ago.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWikCg0V2gB

Diligent people who worked here always carried flowers on the pond early in the morning before Jeong Tae-ui woke up, sharpened flowers in vases, and wiped other places except for the bedroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYEkAFbsML

Jeong Tae-ui also didn't get up late unless something happened, but here, everyone else was always up before he got up. There were only a few other Arab men in surveillance, a young man attached to him, and a couple of white-clad women who could barely move and trim the house, but occasionally saw them skimming the corridors.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3cKfYXKQr

Indeed, if he is not diligent, it is difficult to work under a proper person, and Jeong Tae-ui thought as he passed through the vase of the corridor, which is clear to have been freshly ground.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNV834VwJ9

Perhaps because he heard Jeong Jae-ui's voice from his dream, his footsteps headed to his bedroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSwci4ootp

He didn't have much to say, but he might as well get right on yesterday's topic.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGOFU4Zw4L

"Hyung, I'm going in."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTztvCWPNGh

Jeong Tae-ui, who reached Jeong Jae-ui's bedroom, shouted in front of the door and opened the door. He made eye contact with an Arab man who stood tall at the end of the corridor and looked at him. Good morning, he murmured in a voice that he couldn't hear over there and raised his hand slightly. The blunt Arab man nods slightly as if he understood what he said, although he didn't respond much today.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKToAQSbu5

Jeong Tae-ui smiled and went into the bedroom. That hard-faced man wasn't a bad guy either. Although he couldn't understand people, but understood languages, he was in a position to monitor him, but he wasn't as unlucky as the man who was the owner. Now, after breakfast in a little while, he'll come again if nothing happens. He almost said something when he came.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBZHkPJrnd

"To put it mildly...."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWeKMjWxZ5

Jeong Tae-ui, who went into the bedroom muttering to himself, took a couple of steps and stopped.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUTUn8AYt0

The bed was empty.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcbZEI9FiE

Oh, he tilted his head. Then he turned his head and looked out into the corridor. But there was also no face to look for.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T0ppjGAOr

Jeong Jae-ui, who wakes up earlier than Jeong Tae-ui, usually sits next to a pond in the corridor at dawn and looks at the bright sky. However, when Jeong Tae-ui came out of the bedroom, there was no one in the corridor, so he thought he would be in the bedroom. But the bedroom is also empty.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIm3hLsEp8

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF45gAiok3r

Jeong Tae-ui patted the cheek with his index finger and looked down at the empty bed. Then he snooped his head and turned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NBz52QFf5

Today, the start of the day seems a little different from usual. But there was nothing to wonder about. It wasn't necessary to move as planned, and sometimes Jeong Jae-ui would move in a different direction than predicted.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdqm9JrMVp

He will find him in a detached house anyway. If there is no corridor or bedroom, the rest is just a courtyard, study, and bathroom. He wouldn't have gone to the restaurant because it's not time for dinner yet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo9zpHv25H

Jeong turned to the study. On the way there, he leaned out of the outside door and looked at the courtyard, but there was no one. Then it's either in the study or in the bathroom.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfm9Sgw1YL

Jeong Tae-ui, who reached the study with a leisurely walk as if enjoying a walk in the morning, found Jeong Jae-ui there.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiRgZOJ4I2

"There you are."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut0cEkZ5js

Jeong Tae-ui smiled and approached him when he saw Jeong Jae-ui sitting in front of the desk. Jeong Jae-ui, who was writing something, gave Jeong Tae-ui a glance, said, "Yes, you're up?" and then turned to the desk again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnl7k3kwbE

His voice somehow seems to be quieter than usual. His face as well as his voice was languid.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsyXbOkAP2

Jeong Tae-ui tilted his head and looked at his face, and slightly frowned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIvGJkw09o

"Didn't you sleep?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIxaEbScYT

"Well......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrApxDDeG5F

Jeong Jae-ui murmured as if he were half-heartedly. Jeong Tae-ui approached him with a curious tilt of his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm3iVh4eug

Jeong Jae-ui used to stay up all night. Originally, he was a person who forgets erosion when he focuses on something. There were several times when he stayed up all night reading books or thinking hard. So when Jeong Tae-ui woke up in the middle of the night and went to the bathroom, he went to Jeong Jae-ui's room, where the light was on until then, and muttered, "Are you not sleeping yet?" more than once.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfRACqxEFE

However, this was never the case in this detached house.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmayUYm416

In this small paradise isolated from the world, Jeong Jae-ui lived a peaceful and regular life. It wouldn't be a big surprise to stay up all night now, but.......

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVsSjajAG2

"What kept you up all night again? Did you have anything to focus on?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFtG85dpVM

Jeong Tae-ui approached Jeong Jae-ui's back and patted him on the shoulder. Then, he looks at the desk over his shoulder. Jeong Tae-ui liked to see traces of Jeong Jae-ui's anguish written on the paper, although Jeong Tae-ui would not understand it at all if it was a piece of paper that Jeong Jae-ui could hold on to and stay up all night.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHhrtQ3whG

However, when Jeong Jae-ui saw dozens of papers spread out on the desk, Jeong Tae-ui closed his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz5wIsWbeD

As abstract and unrealistic as a three or four-year-old child did, the elusive paintings were gradually refined to recognize the content as the paper was added. And the unknown formulas and signs on each page were increasingly subdivided as they added paper, making the complex more complicated and the simplified more simplified.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjD5cUQQ4S

"This is..."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq24Sfp2hlg

Jeong Tae-ui, who can be said to know almost nothing about the difference between Jeong Jae-ui, but he soon noticed what the paintings and writings were. He has seen something similar a few times before. Although he didn't think it was actually for sale at the time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiThDwjoUfp

"Did you stay up all night for this yesterday?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAvg4hVo0D

Jeong Tae-ui picked up the most precisely drawn paper among the paintings and murmured.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSKFkq3UXg

The painting itself was clumsy and childish, but the contents were clearly recognizable. The painting, which clearly depicts only the basic framework of the interior, was an anti-tank gun.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJhF0qPYtk

Soon, however, Jeong Tae-ui tilted his head slightly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z0qtU8Z4f

No, maybe it's not an anti-tank gun. The picture was different from the anti-tank gun he knew.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxjcxkyzWe

First of all, the body part was too thin and short. He doesn't know how much power he's expecting, but considering that it's long enough to support the shell, this weapon wouldn't be very powerful.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQK469b0Ca

It can be lightened or portable, but this goes against the most basic conditions of the weapon. No, but that wasn't the problem now. More than that.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS52QWJI3RJ

"Well....it's over with a little more work. Hold on a second. I want to finish it before breakfast."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvzWKWZQLT

Jeong Tae-ui looked at Jeong Jae-ui, who was indifferently muttering with a lost expression. This is ridiculous, however. It was impossible to devise a weapon overnight at the most and squeeze out a basic design.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQzdbzWIKQ

"Hyung....You are a genius....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnRiwuSZRk

However, Jeong Tae-ui, who had been mesmerized for a while, soon came to his senses. It's strange to say that he's resistant, but if he thinks about it, Jeong Jae-ui has done many unbelievable things in the past. He doesn't think it's worth it, but it's too much.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOogVGY87ZN

Tae-ui's stupid voice gave Jae-ui a glimpse of him. Then, as if he was embarrassed, he grimaced slightly awkwardly, and then lowered his eyes again to the desk. And he keeps moving his hands and saying.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jec4gRE2K

"No, I've been thinking about it for a long time. It's not that big of a deal because I'm just writing down what I thought."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgUzRPGyEp

"......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufG58E0AkR

Jeong Tae-ui fluttered a piece of paper in his hand and put it down. Then he went to the chair by the window and sat down and watched Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC35Yig8BJz

Shall we go out, Tae-ui?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0k5e9FYJ5

Yesterday, he remembered what Jeong Jae-ui said quietly in the middle. He probably thought from the moment he said it out loud, he would do this. Unless Jeong Tae-ui said, "I don't want to go out." he thought that he would go out no matter how he reversed his words and bent his will.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MvnxtNOJK

Jeong Tae-ui pressed his right hand still, which made him want to hold on to his shoulder. It was a hand that wanted to grab him by the shoulder and say, "Stop it, it's okay, it's okay."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCSE25gf5h

If you want to get out but think you're staying here because of me, I want to get out of here for you even if I don't want to.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6iBFDGaRF

The word is clearly the true meaning of Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyxX9OYugA

If so, it is rather against his will to stop Jeong Tae-ui. He knew how he felt. Tae-ui would have done the same thing in his position.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKkj8CFdzv

Jeong Tae-ui bowed his head quietly. And he looked down at the right hand that he pressed with his left hand. Slowly, take his left hand off. The right hand hesitated for a moment, but soon relaxed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlWMN5Zcnd

".......It's unique and wonderful in appearance......That thing, can it actually shoot?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJY1stHbeF

Jeong Tae-ui spoke to Jeong Jae-ui on the back. He speaks softly to him, who is probably still paying attention to Jeong Tae-ui's appearance. Jeong Jae-ui thought his hand would stop for a moment. However, he soon began to move his hand again and wrote something more for about tens of seconds without answering Jeong Tae-ui's words, and then put down the pan. And he looked back on Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOU4rPMF3M

He stared at him for a while and then smiled faintly as if he had lost his strength at some point. From that face, he realizes that he was worried about his appearance, not anything else.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79qn2p7IMG

Jeong Jae-ui picked up the paper that he had just taken notes on and looked over it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtGqctuSoZ

"It can shoot. You'll be able to shoot more comfortably than your own kind of gun. It's normal in terms of power, but it's a series of portable ones, so you can use it quite easily."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb2TwbcTTI

"What?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa8FxrRDoC

Jeong Tae-ui frowned. He stood up from his seat and strode to him. And he looked over his shoulder into the picture.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7Q36PNI3L

"This is a series of anti-tank guns?! Where are you going to put the shells? If it's this long, it wouldn't fit."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlFPAkk3fl

Jeong Tae-ui looked again at the clumsy painting drawn by Jeong Jae-ui. Is it because he drew it so poorly that he can't recognize it? He tilted his head and opened it again, but it couldn't be a series of structures.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNvCmBXsWx

"Well, so this gun needs a special shell. There's a design formula that I wrote down the other day, so you can use it. It's a regular warhead of this size, and if you reduce the power a little, you can explode it up to five times. I have a heartburn.....Should I eat it for breakfast? It's almost over."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduOQHv7qhw

Jeong Jae-ui pointed at the size of the shell with his hand, and stood up rubbing his stomach. And he picked up the almost complete blueprint and pen and headed to the restaurant.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeowDYBhkyt

Jeong Tae-ui looked at his back blankly, shook his head excitedly, and followed him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nrEHGuAOr

He seems to have underestimated the character Jeong Jae-ui. He knew that his brother was the favorite of the times, but he didn't know because Jeong Tae-ui would not understand well.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5ON5ngXK7

Even if he had thought about it for a long time, it seemed that he didn't think that much of it was great when he saw the more serious attitude.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOf6zPfDDt

"Well, that's worth looking for in the machine. He'd like to kidnap and imprison you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9biozm5uHb

Jeong Tae-ui sighed and muttered.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OkVOp6a0q

Jeong Jae-ui still had a serious face, and while eating at the restaurant, he was lost in thought, and sometimes looked into the paper and deleted or added something and wrote it down. So by the time he finished eating, he closed the lid of the pen with the words, "It's done."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyCprnyrMU

Jeong Tae-ui smiled with a fed-up face. He is said to be a person who thinks nothing of staying up all night when he concentrates, but he still looks at Jeong Jae-ui, who shows signs of fatigue on his face. Then, he bowed his head, took the last drink, and finished his meal himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalTYAbGW3E

After finishing his meal, Jeong Jae-ui, who left the restaurant, walked back to his study, even though he would go to bed any other time after staying up all night. Jeong Tae-ui followed him and asked suspiciously.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTQGgC7q79

"Why don't you get some sleep. Aren't you tired?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBaRBv4wYA

"Well, a little bit, but this is fine. When Raman comes, let's give him this and go out right away. Then you have to pack up your stuff. I didn't bring anything with me in the first place, so I don't have much to bring."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKskLeMawK

Jeong Tae-ui slowed down a little. He asks him with a frown.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLGhkLzQTD

"I can't believe we will leave right away. This morning?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwAqmzIOyj

Then, Jeong Jae-ui looked at Jeong Tae-ui as if he were strange.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazk6f7ZKej

"You have someone you want to meet. Didn't you want to leave as soon as possible? Since we decided to go out, it's better to go out quickly."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk3gpcGPpv

Jeong Jae-ui, who spoke plainly, began to tidy up as soon as he entered the study.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5OG4gMSzM

Collect the scattered papers, cover them separately, and tie the rest and put them in the trash can. In addition, the cluttered items were organized and placed in their original place, and even the cushions of the chair they sat on were shaken off and the hem of the cloth was arranged.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ96gFCg0bE

While looking at the neat arrangement, which does not even leave a trace of himself, Jeong Tae-ui helped with a simple arrangement of putting a book in. He didn't forget, but he was a little surprised because it's been a long time since he has encountered it this close. But it's not surprising.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUTeABUHKG

Jeong Jae-ui was always a person who left his body in plain and quiet, as time and space passed. However, he did not hesitate to move on what he chose or decided. Contrary to the rush, he didn't like wasting time against his will.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS5nP8V5zl

He didn't know he was so good in action, but it was like that before that the decision was made quickly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGtyItJMDE

Jeong Tae-ui sighed and put the last book on the shelf, which had been placed in another place. Jeong Jae-ui was also about to put the last pen that was placed on the bookshelf into the drawer and close the drawer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoXk1fQevA

The attic, the drawer closed, and the arrangement was over. Wait, there was silence in the study.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH6HN5AxMi

There were no more traces of Jeong Jae-ui here. Maybe it's because he didn't have his in the first place. Or maybe it wasn't his place. Nothing was attached to it as one's own thing, and this study was only ''borrowed''. The books, records, and other items that he asked Raman to receive were not his. He didn't think so.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5B7kUPWZv

Jeong Tae-ui looked around the ownerless study for a while and asked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQCOkqXcgR

"In the room....In the bedroom, is there anything to pack?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn754Sx3XyZ

He shook his head. "There's no stuff there either." he says.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eBJvEer6d

Come to think of it, Jeong Jae-ui was kidnapped and brought here in the first place. There's nothing left to be called his thing.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sF39TMquU

Jeong Tae-ui nodded, muttering, "Yeah, I'm the same, so I just have to leave my body." Come to think of it, he left all his passport and money in the backpacker, but it will be there when he goes back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswGA6SvA3l

Suddenly, he felt lighthearted.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvCfz5lIzp

It's where he stayed for a while. It was a space that he liked, maybe even lovely. How long will the time to stay in such a quiet and peaceful place come back? in such close proximity to paradise

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcytTavqbWb

Thinking about going out, he felt a little sad. But he wasn't disappointed. This wasn't their place to begin with.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cix6VkOOH

"Well, then.......Wait. But the passport."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL90EFpwZq

Jeong Tae-ui expressed a question that suddenly came to mind.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjNaP2eb4B

Jeong Jae-ui did not answer. Then he opens his eyes as if he remembered it and stares at Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4qQaJYaB2

"......I don't have it."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXZFfWRN6T

"I put it somewhere."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lvcm6MSvc

"I had it up to Varanasi, but I lost my mind and forgot it after I opened my eyes here."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSSYmwPaOQ

He didn't think about it at all because he didn't have to go out, muttering to Jeong Jae-ui, and Jeong Tae-ui looked at him with white eyes for a while.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WKEKU9k8Q

So he sighed and shrugged his shoulders.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oMZKXvKei

"Raman will do it for you. He also said he would make enough compensation if I gave them weapons."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJf6ITLzaU

It could certainly be said to be enormous if it was "a compensation" for that man to speak up. It won't be a problem to do something about a passport. Jeong Tae-ui thought of his luggage to see if he had forgotten anything, and Jeong Jae-ui casually murmured to himself.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIfkjVyhdN

"It's enough compensation for me....... I don't really need it. And it's annoying giving me something like heredity."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TqYLfNiJF

Well, Jeong Tae-ui, who was nodding at Jeong Jae-ui's words, paused for a moment. He tilted his head slightly frowned. He thought he heard something weird.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLef4eCJT9

"What did you get?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZsCTavAab

"Hereditary. I got one before.......Oh, come to think of it, there's a right....Tae-ui, don't you need an inheritance? I'll give it to you."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMOiH4n4yP

Jeong Jae-ui, who was lost in thought for a while and spoke seriously as if he was annoyed, looked at Jeong Tae-ui without even blinking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDmNkqr8oe

It's hereditary. It's definitely hereditary. The black gold that springs out of the Middle East.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8I33cIUdB

".......You got it? To whom?

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgmmRnDLzu

"Raman. It's not that big, but he gave it to me as it's pretty useful."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NuttnMZm3

Jeong Tae-ui lost his words. And he stared at Jeong Jae-ui. Jae-ui said, "Tell me if you need it later. I don't need it." he said, but the sound didn't even come up.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopLzlN9R09

That's why he's so prejudiced against the guys with the diamond spoon in their mouths.....

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3RLDYUHme

Jeong Tae-ui scratched his head. What does he think of giving it to him when it's no use anyway? He couldn't imagine it when he thought of that stark, cool-looking face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MfAM2jAKf

"I guess he really wanted to win your favor. Did he need a weapon that much?....But he didn't make me what I asked him to make, and he just played carelessly, so he managed not to get angry and held it in."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF77ZcVOCKQ

Jeong Tae-ui murmured sulkily, and Jeong Jae-ui smiled quietly. So he tapped the paper that he put on the desk calmly, saying, "You make it for me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOf0IzwGsU

Jeong Tae-ui sighed. Anyway, he can get out now. If he goes out, he can meet the person he needs to meet and the person he wants to meet.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4mVOVmCJD

Suddenly, his fingers twitched.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo4cNRlCMU

There's only one person in his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijOMUsCn2U

He's probably the first person to contact when he gets out of here.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl50YmyJocA

"......In the end, I can't fix my illness......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrV8xy952Z

Jeong Tae-ui murmured to himself. But he didn't feel so bad. Smirking, a smile circulated around his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pzVgms8Cl

It was then.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHn6CrnQb5

From the end of the corridor, he could hear the sound of footsteps approaching this way. It's a heavy yet refreshing step.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsgEEdNRVC

Jeong Tae-ui turned to the side where he could hear the sound. The sound of footsteps that came right in front of me soon came into the study with the appearance of a person.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63iv3N21Wr

"Good morning."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeyalLhVOA

It was Raman who came in first with an obscene greeting. It was the same time as always.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZea10SY9G

As he entered the study, he slightly raised his eyebrows when he found Jeong Tae-ui's appearance. He looks like he didn't expect to be with him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0om6Xyv6S

Indeed, until now, Jeong Tae-ui used to stay somewhere else and go to the study after he returned because he didn't want to meet Raman when he came even if he had to go to the study.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvWzvHHgPu

"The brothers must have been having a friendly conversation."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCmRgngaNx

Raman smiled softly, showing no sign of it. The laughter, which would not have been desired at any time, didn't seem so bad to think it was the last time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXKOmhXw9z

"I don't know if I can get a good answer today."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbbGnYvMrq

Raman said, taking a step closer to Jeong Jae-ui. As usual, Jeong Tae-ui felt somewhat resentful as he heard the sweet voice.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6smDGyKJM

In the end, it was a pity to bring weapons into this man's hands. What he wanted wasn't a weapon in itself. Rather than the weapon itself, he coveted the name Jae-ui, which could be obtained from it.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGiKr2wJf8

Considering that the name Jeong Jae-ui would be used by that man, Jeong Tae-ui felt bitter even if Jeong Jae-ui implicitly agreed.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2VwUBzCJG

It can't be helped now.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpspJjz8Bm0

Jeong Tae-ui's appetite became bitter. It's a bit of a blur on his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYYXcqdfOk

However, Jeong Jae-ui, who would be using his name, looked like nothing happened. In the first place, he didn't care about such things.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PxEZGX0R8

Rather, Jeong Jae-ui seemed to be in a good mood now. Perhaps, he had given up his burden on the man who had provided him with a comfortable environment that he could achieve his will somehow.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CuPm7Itdb

Jeong Jae-ui smiled. It's not the usual vague or calm laugh. It was a really happy smile. Raman paused when he saw the smile. Rather, the smile disappeared from his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFkt7XnR5K

Jeong Jae-ui picked up some of the papers he had left on the desk and held them out to him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc0SpD75SP

"Here. I've matched what you said before. You said you wanted an anti-tank gun. You can probably use it as it is without any alteration. The first page is the structure of the warhead, as I wrote down here....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbMGoj6rfr

Turning the page, Jeong Jae-ui gave a rough explanation.Without having to explain it separately, he added that he wrote it down so that a familiar person could see it immediately, and Jeong Jae-ui turned over the paper as if he were checking it in front of his eyes.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0DbRzexc9

But Raman wasn't looking at the paper.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlgHgEd6kU

His usual smile was washed away. There was no expression left, and an expressionless face that even looked creepy was staring at Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKUrpWFQwA

"......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkguCReM85q

Jeong Tae-ui, who was looking at him sitting next to him in a window chair, frowned.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSz8Cd8dXwc

In contrast to his resentment, he thought he must be pleased. And should have been pleased. But there was no such expression on his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKKvQ8LoN8

Maybe it's because he didn't get a good answer even though he came and went every day for quite a long time, so he couldn't even imagine meeting the expectations that suddenly fell.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt3LSMGtuu

Jeong Jae-ui, who finished explaining all of them by turning over six or seven sheets of paper one by one, raised his head as if he had realized his expressionless gaze. Jeong Jae-ui, who looked at him suspiciously for a while, continued, tilting his head slightly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMRFiWC6tZ

"It's an outline, but I've written down the essentials, so if you look at the experts, you won't have to add anything. However, if there is anything unclear or lacking, please contact me. I'll probably go back home soon after I get out of here, so you can contact me there."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5ZbmTabAL

Jeong Jae-ui finished speaking and handed over the papers to Raman. He looked at Jeong Jae-ui without moving a little, and only then slowly lowered his eyes onto the paper.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXcb70EGvz

"I think you refused yesterday......did you finish this in one day?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRGKIRIgmS

Raman said quietly. There was no emotion in the slow hand that looked over the paper. The same goes for his gaze, which looks through the content with a cold eye. There was not even a smile that was customary.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEELb9jjLh8

"Oh, I had something in mind in the past, so I just fixed it up a little bit.......do you not like it?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxgT6oG7hF

Looking at Raman's expression, which was cold and hardened without a trace of laughter, Jeong Jae-ui asked suspiciously. Raman looked through the last page and covered the paper to give attention to Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrFEWr8ZW1

"That's not true. Even for me as an outsider, I think there will be something very useful. It's great."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MdyDswZxL

Raman spoke in an unpretentious tone. It was a finished product that could not be pretentious.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimwL0JeGAf

Jeong Jae-ui nodded with a smile.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChpP3vyX54

"That's a relief. I'm glad it helped."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q70iQzcAN

He looked really happy. Jeong Tae-ui looked at Jeong Jae-ui and thought that maybe he was not so completely comfortable while staying here. Indeed, that man generously poured out everything that Jeong Jae-ui wanted. No matter how much he didn't show it, there's no way that nothing was more expensive than free.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQMl7wLEJ2

Jeong Tae-ui stood up from his chair. And he took a step closer to them, exactly to the door beyond them.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxdn1VxFEM

"Let's go hyung...Thank you very much."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvUR3ck1Ts

Jeong Tae-ui looked back as he passed through between Raman and Jeong Jae-ui. In the meantime, he also met Raman's eyes and politely nodded and greeted him. It was a man he didn't want to see very much again, but nothing was so badly damaged. In addition, he was detained, but he was considerate so that there would be no inconvenience in living.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l0SUy4r49

Jeong Tae-ui, who sincerely said thank you, stood at the door. And he waited for Jeong Jae-ui to come out.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLdboNDxaT

Jeong Jae-ui looked at Raman for a moment without saying a word. He nodded slightly when his eyes met Raman, who was looking down at him expressionlessly with the design he had given in one hand.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuefqwS241Y

"In the meantime, I've been comfortable thanks to you. I wish you good health until I see you again someday."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuIdKtngeR

However, it was when Jeong Jae-ui, who greeted him like that, was about to walk away.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo9SsAdaNd

"Are you leaving right now? I don't think you need to go out so suddenly like this."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRgLgqrDyq

Raman stood in his way lightly. He stepped back a little bit and moved his body sideways, but Jeong Jae-ui, who was trying to take a step, stopped his feet because his front was blocked.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLCrHPAetS

"You've given me such a wonderful gift, much less a valuable guest I've been serving for a long time, and I'll be ashamed of myself if I let you go like this."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IPZHpg7OG

Raman shook his head and said softly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBlH5cVNpL

Jeong Tae-ui, who was waiting for Jeong Jae-ui at the door, frowned a little. At one point, Raman's face was again smiling as usual. The laugh was somehow offensive.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38AmhcfzdD

"I appreciate your words, but I have business to attend to. You've done too much kindness, so it's already too much to accept any more than this."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl89l9VBSnT

He shook his head. Then he stepped a little sideways. But this time again, Raman took a step back and tilted his body a little more to block Jeong Jae-ui's front. Jeong Tae-ui frowned. Jeong Jae-ui's expression was also slightly stiff.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0KYqnBUPa

It can be said that once, but twice, it had a clear intention.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5PRdCe5AK

He turned toward them and spoke slowly to Raman, who was turning his back on him.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQ6ZAx2Swx

"I feel like you're in the way....."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dfaHbKDSn

"Oh, did I?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmByvaSwDDs

Raman glanced back at him. The gaze was as usual. His mouth is smiling and his eyes are frighteningly cold. He slowly looked back at Jeong Jae-ui. Jeong Jae-ui was looking at him with a vague stiff face. Suddenly Raman smiled thickly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hnHWN2Kpa

"I was mistaken. I didn't know you could make this much stuff without this much difficulty."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHJP0KGlXG

"To say that you thought wrong......?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnvDMM9fdi

Jeong Jae-ui asked back quietly. However, Jeong Jae-ui's faintly frowned eyes already knew the answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qylgmA4ts

"It means I can't let you go. There's room for any better in other people's hands, so if there's room for an enemy's favor, I'll have to stop it beforehand."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPSkEkKoA1

Raman's weak answer spread clearly in the quiet study. For a moment, no one said anything. Among them, Raman was the only one with a cool smile.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yNgC3QWRQ

"This is too much.......That's a different story."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5850EyERgn

He said with a sigh.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFzUIJ0QlR

No wonder things work out so easily. Luck has to be so fierce these days. He thought it would be okay if he were with him.......it's a bit sad if his unlucky fate is stronger.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmnyN2fLei

Despite Jeong Tae-ui's disapproving and powerless protest, Raman did not budge. As if he could not hear it at all, he turned away from Jeong Tae-ui and was only looking at Jeong Jae-ui. As if waiting to hear what he will say.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J0kXS3xCk

Jeong Jae-ui remained silent for a while. He looked down at Raman's chest, and then he looked at him again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnIhvC5GV1

"I don't intend to make any more weapons. Now, this is probably the last time I've given you. So you can't ask for and get the same thing that someone else, like you did to me."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbhcsPc1Lq

But Raman laughed low. Shake his head slowly.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1Ac1tGONk

"I can't believe what people say. As proof of that, you gave me this diagram of a new weapon, which you said you would not make any more weapons even if you look at it right now."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBBCHXOXDh

Even before his words were over, Jeong Tae-ui sighed and shouted, "It seems like you were dumbfounded."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHyeXCXCjh

"I can't choose one with that logic. You keep your word, you don't make weapons, so you can lock them up for life, or if you break them once, you can continue to break them and make them somewhere else?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7L467LKUC

Jeong Tae-ui clicked his tongue, adding in his native language, "To match to which rhythm, you nobleman."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR0bitwXHY

But Raman seemed to have no intention of backing down. He just shook his head. Jeong Jae-ui, who had been thinking for a while without saying anything, opened his mouth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJghkEccn5U

"Raman, you promised me. If I hand over the weapons as you wish, you'll get me out of here as soon as possible, and you'll compensate me accordingly. There is no need for compensation. I've already been overpaid during my stay here. I just want you to fulfill the former promise."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTowCqJ4Ynz

"I apologize for that. I was mistaken."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGLXgiz1E4

Raman shook his head unconcernedly against his words.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSkBK0y6IM

Jeong Tae-ui managed to clear his hot and rising stomach, and turned his back because he thought he would have a disease if he saw the man's face even a little more.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbGVl7ICVW

He didn't expect that. He never thought it would be like this. As Raman said, he thought that if he gave him what he wanted, he could go straight down the road. Don't tell me he's going to have ridiculous difficulty.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MLb7rxldD

"Well, if you're a royal, shouldn't you keep your word?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMchKMApE9e

Jeong Tae-ui felt heavy inside, so he stroked his chest and murmured crookedly. He felt an icy gaze on the back of his head, but he didn't look back.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcbckM81Xk

"It is a great pity for me to break the promise I made myself, but I can't help it if I am to discredit myself for something more important than prestige."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaCCDQMAv5

Raman's brazenly nonchalant voice came over his shoulder. Once again, he's getting choked up.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1KMPSlvkf

This is why diamond spoons are no match for each other. That's why.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7VxuUKNf6

Jeong Tae-ui controlled his rising stomach, reflecting on the prejudice that it seemed wrong to be corrected. What does he say? He does not seem to be great, so he turns his back and only pats on the heavy chest.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JghUO1yMl

"......How can we get out of here?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfaFqzQRMm

Jeong Jae-ui said after a moment's thought. Raman raised his eyebrows slightly. Soon he burst into a low laugh.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZxvRBS7SR

"Well, that's wise. Another way of suggesting......."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz9r6Fl4In

He seemed to be thinking of something. He opens his eyes slightly and looks down at Jeong Jae-ui. Jeong Jae-ui waited for his answer to come back after his thoughts were over without saying a word.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16cDIZANUm

After a while, Raman slowly opened his mouth. But what came out of his mouth was a disappointing answer.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyopnpdtlvT

"I'm afraid you don't have a viable alternative. I have to ask you to stay here until I have a good idea.......Of course, as always, there will be no inconvenience in staying here. I promise you that in my honor and in my family."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNfWUEWrPF

As if Raman would not listen to any other differences, he said so far and turned away. Then, he left the room with a short greeting, saying, "Take a rest." and he turned his back in front of the room and passed by Jeong Tae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ22fDggROs

At this moment, if he holds this man's neck and puts a knife in it and threatens him......For a moment, Jeong Tae-ui thought of a terrible idea, but he already gave up at the time when he thought of it because he was unlikely to be able to hear it effectively.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfIz88M7XZ

Jeong Tae-ui glanced at Raman passing by.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoUYXjNa05

There was no expression on Raman's face. He couldn't even guess what he was thinking.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYITzaLq1EC

Without looking back, he walked straight across the middle to the west end of the corridor. Then his figure disappeared beyond the door, and the door was firmly closed again, isolating the quiet space from the outside again.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSjsLn8ihx

Jeong Tae-ui sighed slowly. Scratching his head, he looked back. There stood a Jeong Jae-ui.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw4eydDWGL

"....... He said he wouldn't let us go."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO047dJjVXs

While thinking about how to open the door, Jeong Tae-ui shrugged his shoulders, muttering what Jeong Jae-ui already knew. Jeong Jae-ui also did not seem to have thought of this situation. There was a glimmer of embarrassment on his face.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpE4iaZI0Aq

"I know.....What should we do?"

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD09IhWabMR

His muttering words were more like talking to himself than seeking Jeong Tae-ui's opinion.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzisczhuhY

Jeong Tae-ui sat down on the spot. Sitting on the ground in front of the door, he scratched his head.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvRy6pW2Se

Jeong Jae-ui, who had been lost in thought for a while, suddenly saw Jeong Tae-ui. Seeing Jeong Tae-ui sitting a little depressed, he soon exhaled a quiet breath. And speaks as quietly as that breath.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVta6FPceX

"It's all right. we'll be able to get out."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRydIJZh3te

Jeong Tae-ui paid attention to Jeong Jae-ui. It was not a consolation light. It was just a calm tone that seemed to tell the truth.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGCTFNxrZP

He didn't know there was any other good move. Yeah, maybe. This man in front of us is, after all, a genius that everyone can keep an eye on.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ4ZV7MNyc

His mind, which was heavily depressed, seemed to brighten up a little. Jeong Tae-ui was facing Jeong Jae-ui and laughed at some point.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU0HOhujQl

"Tell me if there's any way."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETU1CjOweT

"No, there's no way......We'll be able to get out."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVYTqfusvA

Jeong Jae-ui shook his head excitedly and said seriously.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaWQhvu4vQ

Jeong Tae-ui looked at him. Suddenly something vaguely came to mind. If there's a reason why he's arguing like this for no reason...

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3tYjXuGYE

"......why."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZcHpZBhTH

"Because you want to go out. Because I want to go out."

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7PE8butqk

Jeong Jae-ui said in a casual tone, as if nothing had happened. And Jeong Tae-ui knew better than anyone that the words were neither excessive bluster nor groundless confidence.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4r0RuD4fm

It's time for this.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbs9lziRen

To think that Jeong Tae-ui envies his brother for a moment. Jeong Tae-ui burst into laughter. Laughing out loud. At one point, both anger and depression disappeared.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq4FJe6EXN

Nothing has been resolved. Still, they were trapped in this little paradise, and now the logical way out of it is completely gone.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokMdHYC8Nx

However, Jeong Tae-ui laughed as he looked at Jeong Jae-ui, who had never been worried about life-related issues with a carefree face, saying, "There is no choice, there will be another way." It wasn't that he didn't believe in Jeong Jae-ui's terrible luck. Apart from his correlation with himself, he has seen his fortune beyond measure.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51xiiLQmVG

Jeong Tae-ui saw Jeong Jae-ui with a face that still couldn't stop smiling even though he laughed for a long time.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUJb5QIiMg

In fact, Jeong Tae-ui was accepting Jeong Jae-ui's miraculous luck as a reality, but he was not optimistic enough to wait for a miracle in advance. Luck has always been uncertain, no matter how many times. So he didn't believe it with firm conviction that he could get out of here, but he definitely felt at ease.

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu1QvRRCyo

Maybe it was the luck that Jeong Jae-ui brought to him.
