Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Break Promise
Jeong Jaeui sighed. Whatever, as long as we can get out right now. He would et the people he needed to et and the ones he wanted to see.
Suddenly, his fingertips trembled.
A man flashed through his mind.
Perhaps, that would be the first person he wanted to contact once he got out of here.
"...In the end, this schizophrenia can never be cured..."
Jeong Taeui muttered to himself. But in any case, he didn’t feel too bad about it. A smile
passed over his lips.
At that mont,
He heard soone’s footsteps approaching from the end of the hallway. Strong and bold
steps.
Jeong Taeui turned his gaze toward the sound. The footsteps grew closer, and finally, the person entered the office.
"Good morning."
Abdul Rahman entered with a usual greeting. This was also the ti he ca here every day.
Upon entering the room and seeing Jeong Taeui there at this hour, Abdul Rahman raised an eyebrow slightly. It seed he hadn’t expected to see him with Jeong Jaeui at this ti.
Well, even if Jeong Taeui had sothing to do here, he wouldn’t want to run into Abdul
Rahman at all. Normally, he would have gone sowhere else and waited until Abdul Rahman left before returning.
"You two seem to be having a very close conversation."
Abdul Rahman didn’t show much expression and only gave a slight smile. A smile that, under normal circumstances, seed forced, but oddly, it wasn’t as terrifying this ti.
"I wonder if I’ll get a good answer today."
Abdul Rahman said as he took a step closer to Jeong Jaeui. Hearing the gentle voice uttering words he heard every day, Jeong Taeui felt inexplicably irritated.
In any case, it was unpleasant to hand over a weapon to this man. What he desired wasn’t just the weapon itself but to have Jeong Jaeui’s na associated with it.
The thought of his brother’s na being exploited by this man annoyed Jeong Taeui, even though he was the one who had tacitly agreed to it.
It was inevitable now.
Jeong Taeui’s mouth tasted bitter. His face expressionless as he looked at Abdul Rahman.
However, Jeong Jaeui, whose na was being exploited, maintained a calm deanor. As if he didn’t care from the beginning.
On the contrary, he seed to be in a good mood. Perhaps he felt relieved to fulfill the wish of the person who had provided him with such a comfortable living environnt all this ti.
Jeong Jaeui smiled. It wasn’t the usual vague, serene smile, but a genuinely joyful one. Seeing that smile, Abdul Rahman hesitated, and the smile on his face vanished.
Jeong Jaeui handed so papers on the desk to Abdul Rahman.
"Here. I’ve done as you asked before. You said you wanted an anti-tank gun. You can use it without any modifications to this design. First, the initial part is the structure of the warhead written here..."
Turning the page, Jeong Jaeui briefly explained and ntioned that he had designed and written it in such a way that even non-experts could understand without needing much explanation.
But Abdul Rahman didn’t look at the papers.
The usual smile on his face disappeared, leaving only a blank, almost strange expression. He just stared at Jeong Jaeui.
"...?"
Jeong Taeui, sitting on the chair by the window, observed him. His eyebrows furrowed.
Abdul Rahman should have been very pleased with the design - instead of showing anger like this. He should have been delighted - not with this dull, blank expression.
Was it because he had stayed at this place for such a long ti without getting Jeong Jaeui’s consent, and now that Jeong Jaeui had unexpectedly agreed to his request, he was montarily stunned?
Jeong Jaeui flipped through six or seven pages, explaining everything in detail, then looked up, only to et Abdul Rahman’s expressionless face. He seed montarily confused, then focused back on the paper and continued.
"This is a preliminary draft, but I’ve written down all the necessary details. So if you give it to an expert, they’ll know exactly what to do without needing to add or change anything. But if you have any questions or if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can contact . I might go ho once I leave here, so you can reach
there."
Jeong Jaeui finished and handed the docunts to Abdul Rahman. Abdul Rahman just stared at Jeong Jaeui without moving, then slowly lowered his gaze to the
papers.
"Just yesterday you were still refusing this... You completed it in one day, didn’t you?"
Abdul Rahman said quietly, his hands slowly turning the pages without any emotion. His
eyes coldly scanned the information written there. The usual smile had completely
disappeared.
"Oh, I had already thought about it before, so I just had to tweak and redesign it a bit... Don’t you like it?"
Jeong Jaeui asked curiously. After looking through the last page, Abdul Rahman folded them and looked at Jeong Jaeui.
"No, that’s not it. From a non-expert’s point of view, this seems very useful. It’s excellent."
Abdul Rahman said without any pretense in his voice. It seed to be genuine praise. After all, it was a perfectly finished product.
Jeong Jaeui smiled and nodded.
"Then that’s good. I’m glad it can be of use to you."
Jeong Jaeui seed genuinely happy. Jeong Taeui watched him and thought that perhaps Jeong Jaeui hadn’t been as comfortable here as he had assud. After all, the man had generously given him anything he wanted. But even if it wasn’t obvious, it seed he still felt so discomfort because there was nothing more precious than freedom.
Jeong Taeui said - "Alright
