Episode 318
The sound over the phone changes tone and rings softly.
-hello. Is it our old age?
When I listen to it again, the voice of Cheongryeo is correct. It gives goosebumps.
‘Why is this bastard here?’
Even the phone number is different, what the hell is this? In the anti, what are you talking about again?
– I’m a new mover in the dormitory, so I said hello. You are Gunwoo, right?
“… ?”
– I found sothing you left in the room, not anything else. I will send it by courier. Can you give the address? The academy only gave my phone number as personal information.
“… … .”
Is it voice phishing?
I was dumbfounded for a mont and kept my mouth shut, then pondered for a mont about the probability that it was really soone else.
And he gave an accurate answer.
“Delivery is fine, I will drop by today and pick it up. thank you.”
-okay. All right.
It cos off surprisingly easily. No way, it’s really another person with a similar voice… .
-It’s a weekday, so I have to listen to lectures during the day… Shall we et in front of the academy at 9pm?
It can’t be.
I couldn’t stand it and opened my mouth.
“Do it.”
-What are you talking about?
“Shin Jae-hyun to do it.”
-… !
I didn’t call him by his stage na with the last possibility in mind, but looking at the reaction, I think it’s him.
There was a brief silence on the other side of the phone, but soon a voice mingled with laughter was heard.
-You are my junior.
“… !”
-hmm… Looking at the reaction, it seems like you know , but how are you using both bodies?
The quicker you notice, the more annoying you are. No matter how much it is, I wonder if it is enough to reason about this nonsensical situation right away. … question first.
“How did you know this contact number?”
– You ca to the VTIC signing event.
“You’ve probably had autograph signings thousands of tis, but don’t make ridiculous excuses.”
Even if it was an advertising model signing event, it wouldn’t have happened once or twice, but how could you identify a guy who got signed without giving his na more than a year ago?
But the voice was calm.
– Well, it was quite impressive. Besides, it’s not common for people to change their na twice and make it into a nickna.
“what?”
He rembered the situation in detail and explained it.
The phrase is automatically reconstructed and played back in the tone of resonance in your head.
‘Park Moon… No Ryu Gun-woo… … . sorry. Just ask for a big moon!’
-I told you both of your juniors’ nas.
-Isn’t it strange that you don’t know? I imdiately thought of it when I heard the junior’s impression.
“… … .”
-I thought you told on purpose… Wasn’t it?
this damn… .
I endured my anger and silently endured my anger. It was because he knew that there was no point in cursing at ‘Park Moon-dae’, who did not know anything.
In the first place, since I am fundantally not here, I end up coming back to the sa question.
‘Where did this guy go?’
I must say one thing though.
“That is not .”
– It’s been a long ti since I even got a nickna, but that excuse is fun.
“Because it isn’t.”
I pressed my throbbing head.
“that… Because it’s really Park Moondae. not .”
Cheong-Ryeo over the phone opened her mouth after a while.
– I think we need a detailed conversation.
* * *
After an hour and a half.
I ca face-to-face with a guy with a dog at a residential cafe on the outskirts of Seoul.
The place where I t him last ti is the sa, and the situation is very similar since he is accompanied by a dog.
‘Am I going to try one more ti to see if I’m right?’
You roll your head tenaciously. I sat across from him and said.
“See if you co here often.”
“Sotis when I have ti.”
Cheong-ryo shrugged as she stroked the dog holding the ball. There is no sign of doubt.
I held back a sigh.
I feel a bit skeptical about living alone with this bastard, but… These are the brain cells of a person who has experienced a special situation. would be better than nothing
In the anti, he examines my appearance and nods his head.
“What should I say… It’s a look that matches your personality.”
It sounds like you’re cursing, but I don’t have the ti or resources to get angry at it, so I’ll skip it.
I nodded and he changed the question.
“And is it strange and lives by changing bodies? To say that, I think I was always a junior when I was active.”
“I want to ask you since when did you beco interested in voice phishing?”
“You talk too much. Voice phishing… I never lied.”
Cheong-Ryeo put sothing on the table.
“He left this behind.”
“… … !”
that… It was a compact cara. Brand new, unopened packaging yet.
And the advice I gave to ‘Park Moon-dae’ cos to mind.
-If you’re interested, I think you can buy a cara and take pictures. Of course, after this test is over.
‘Did you buy it for motivation?’
I sighed, feeling confused about what to say. Cheong-rye smiled.
“I just tracked down the sightings, and a boarding academy ca out and wrote people. There is no fraud.”
“And why are you calling yourself?”
“sure. Originally, the decisive thing is that you can’t borrow soone else’s hand.”
He was a prudent pup.
Even if I think about the process until I ca here, the evaluation does not change.
Look at what he said as soon as we agreed to et.
-great. If I send a car to the officetel, would you like to ride it?
I tried to agree involuntarily, but I knew what he ant.
-… You already know the address.
-haha. Procedures are important in human relationships.
I knew how to use the hand I had, befitting a guy who repeated the sa ti zone several tis.
That’s why I’m not very happy to tell you what cards I have… It would be more beneficial to inform this board.
I decided to give him slightly more points for his cooperation, which he showed in the incident with Gold 2.
“Listen.”
I leaned back.
“I was able to print the mission.”
“For , the word ‘status abnormality’ appeared directly in front of my eyes. Like a ga window.”
Silence passed.
Cheong-ryeo lowered her head to the side and imdiately replied nonchalantly.
“is it so?”
That’s not too surprising. I clicked my tongue.
“Is it teased?”
“It was a bit like that, but it was understandable even considering the balance.”
“balance?”
“look. Instead of letting you restart the mission… It has a ‘status abnormality’. If you give one, one follows as a penalty.”
Chung-rye slowly drew a line with her finger on the table.
“Your junior, both your body and job have changed, right? That’s a big penalty. It wouldn’t be awkward to say that help was given instead.”
“… … .”
You can see it from that angle too.
Cheong-rye continued asking as if she was really curious.
“hmm… You graduated from a prestigious university, wasn’t it a waste to give up your foundation?”
“I was a public official, but what?”
“haha.”
Cheong-Ryeo asked ominously softly.
“Did you infer from that help that it’s all over when juniors die?”
“… okay.”
“Hmm, should that be considered a penalty?”
I’m going to rob the level up system like this. I held back a sigh.
Now that it’s like this, I’ll have to check what I wanted to experint with before getting into the main topic.
“first… Try it.”
“hmm?”
“… Shout ‘status window’.”
He stared at with a rare expression on his face.
And burst into laughter.
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Don’t laugh x-foot.
It feels like my tongue is shrinking when I speak directly in front of others. I took off my glasses and pressed my forehead.
“You must have a rich imagination, junior.”
“shut up.”
“No, I did too.”
Cheong-ryeo leaned forward.
“I tried all kinds of contents and superstitions. Logout or comani… . Um, was that the 9th or the 10th?”
“… … .”
“How many tis do you think I’ve done that? Nothing works.”
Cheongryeo smiled.
“nothing.”
“… … .”
“so… Well, shall we shout at the status window again?”
“done.”
I pressed my eyes. After hesitating, he finally spat out the next words.
“Good job.”
“… … .”
It was futile.
‘… Did it beco a habit to study ‘Park Moon University’?
If you’re this bastard, ‘Will you give a song instead of words?’ Soone who would say the sa thing…
“… thank you.”
“… … .”
“Can you hear the explanation about your current condition, junior?”
“okay.”
I ignored the dog sitting at my feet and finally got to the point.
After the ‘status abnormality’ was over, I took on the mission on my own, and appropriately omitted the progress so far.
Hearing that he had received the mission himself, his eyes slightly narrowed, but his appreciation for the explanation still popped out.
It wasn’t very useful.
“It is strange.”
“what.”
It’s not just one or two strange things, can you understand it by throwing it like that?
Cheongryeo tapped her fingers on the table.
“look. Whether it was my juniors or , when I restarted, the ti before was nothing.”
“okay.”
“But this ti, the two of them exist together on the sa tiline and influence each other. They are completely different.”
“What do you an?”
“I wonder if there is another force at work. It seems that a ti paradox occurred in the process, and it is interesting.”
Whether this bastard is interesting or not isn’t going to co to a conclusion right away, what matters is the outco of this situation.
“Anyway, after the status ailnt of the test is over, I wake up with this body, so ‘Park Moon-dae’ has disappeared.”
“Ah, you said you went into that body?”
“okay.”
I’m going to have to scrape a hint of what the hell this is.
“I’d like to ask if anyone ever suddenly disappeared during a restart.”
“no. It was always the sa.”
He replied as if he had nothing to consider.
And he responded with a face that he didn’t understand.
“however… Is it that important?”
what?
“Listening, juniors seem to be going back to normal after today. After that, won’t it co back to that body on its own?”
“Maybe not.”
“I think it would be comfortable even if it wasn’t, but are you worried that your original body will disappear?”
“now… .”
What is this madman talking about?
“It saved ti to worry about ethics unnecessarily. Think carefully. Junior, that… What if ‘Big Moon’ asks the junior to return to his original body?”
“… … .”
I swallowed the cold coffee and set the cup on the table.
“If you want, you should think about it.”
“Isn’t there a way?”
“I have sothing to try.”
I have no intention of telling this guy, but I have sothing in mind.
‘mission.’
Another mission… You can take it as a ‘body change’ reward.
“And Park Moon-dae is his own body, so he has rights.”
Regardless of whether I do this or not, isn’t that the case if I only ask for authority?
But the guy sitting across the table… It was heartbreaking.
“I think you’re misunderstanding sothing.”
“… !”
“Everything Moondae Park has has been accomplished by juniors. It doesn’t matter if it’s your body or not, it’s your mind that’s in your head, and you made it.”
“… … .”
“But why are you planning to give it to ? It’s right to co up with a way to not get involved more effectively… .”
“It’s not about making a plan, it’s about options… .”
“Why do you keep that option open?”
“… … .”
“listen. I’m going to tell you about your junior’s activities so far.”
Her fingers started tapping the table again.
“He saved a person who didn’t exist before with his own body, helped him study, and made a plan so that he could survive until now. Well, I think I did enough morally.”
“… … .”
“I’m not trying to kill you. just… I thought it would be okay to leave it as it is.”
Cheongryeo t her eyes.
“Isn’t it?”
I clenched my fist.
