Two hours later.
Dowook, who was looking at the citizens standing in line, turned to Lim So Yool.
"At this rate, we won't be able to finish today. Is your schedule okay?"
"Wait a minute."
Lim So Yool picked up her cell phone and checked the text she sent earlier.
[Unni. Are you sure you'll be able to do the coverage?]
[Of course. Who do you think I am? I asked a planning and coverage expert, so don't worry and enjoy your date.]
[It's not a date, but we're just calculating together]
[If you say so~]
Lim So Yool, who saw Dowook taking a sip of water because he was thirsty from consulting nonstop, thought that if she kept holding him next to her, his schedule would be too much.
She pressed her sister's phone number. Not long after, Lim So-hee's voice ca out.
-What is it, Semdeok?
Lim So Yool covered her mouth with her hands and asked in a whisper.
"How long do I have to do this to fully reflect the public interest in the article?"
– I just got a call, he said he got enough interviews with the residents. You can decide on when to escape with Semdol whenever you want."
"It's not an escape, it's calculation…… Never mind. If this happens like you guaranteed, I'll owe you a favor.”
-Oh, what should I ask for? First of all, it would be nice if love went back and forth.
"If it's weird, I'll never do it."
-If you whine like that, I want to do it more.
"I'm hanging up."
Lim So Yool, who finished the call, asked Dowook.
"I think you can rest now. He said he's done enough coverage.”
"I guess this diagnosis t the requirents for promotion".
He asked with a smile on his face. Lim So Yool nodded.
"I'm satisfied with it."
"It's almost dinner ti, but shall we go after everyone is done? Unless you're too tired."
The corners of Lim So Yool's mouth bent up.
"No, keep going."

Seodaemun Fire Station, 6pm.
The lounge was filled with the sll of food that made one's mouth water.
"I would like to express my deep gratitude to the volunteer mbers who have been suffering all day. For dinner, I invited the chef of the City Hall restaurant to make a spicy pork stir-fry. Please enjoy."
At Action Officer Yoo Gwon-Ryul's words, the volunteers sitting in the room applauded.
In the food distribution line, Yoo Gwon-Ryul rolled up his sleeves and held a long ladle in his hands.
"Enjoy your al."
Yoo Gwon-Ryul, who was personally distributing the soup to the volunteer mbers, paused when he saw a man with a very sullen expression in the line.
"Chief Shim, you are here, too.”
"Oh? Oh, Officer Yoo. You don't have to give soup. I don't have an appetite."
Following Shim Sang-dong, who trudged away, doctors from Hansung Hospital began to receive food. They all looked sad, so he asked the district official who was assigned with them.
"Manager, did sothing happen to them?"”
"Well, everyone volunteered well at the free clinic. The satisfaction of the residents was also great."
A woman in a neat coat appeared in front of Yoo Gwon-Ryul, who continued to distribute soup with a tilted head.
Yoo Gwon-Ryul, who had been scooping soup and putting it on the tray, made eye contact with the noticeable beauty and paused.
"Officer? I guess you're here to cheer us up".
"Oh… Yes. E-enjoy your al."
When Yoo Gwon-Ryul dealt with her with great tension, the district official asked.
"Who is she? How co you're treating her like that?"
"She's the dean's representative at Myeong Sae Hospital."
"Ah. That's why she was with that doctor.”
The district official pointed to a volunteer sitting at the table with her and said.
"There was a bit of trouble for a while because the residents said they would only get treatnt from that doctor. How he pointed everything out was really amazing.”
"Really?"
Yoo Gwon-Ryul's eyes were on the two with bright expressions. And he t the doctors with dark expressions on the table next to them. For so reason, he felt like he knew the reason.
"Manager."
"What?"
"Do you know his na?"
"I'm sure it's Park Dowook."
"What about the people next to him?"
"Uh… That's……. I know they're from Hansung Hospital.….”
Dowook scooped up a spoonful of soup, chewed up rice, and looked around. Lim So Yool, who saw it, asked.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know when my companions will co out."
"Your colleagues? Is it a friend of yours?"
Dowook shook his head at Lim So Yool, who beca curious.
"The director doesn't have to pay attention to it. Because he says a lot of weird things."
"Weird things?"
Like a destined person or sothing.
He wouldn't say that in front of the other, but there was a risk of harm to the public anyway.
"Sothing like that. Do you want so water? I'm going to get a drink."
"Please."
Dowook moved toward the water purifier and avoided comnting on Seong Chang Soo.
Lim So Yool continued the topic when Dowook ca back and handed her a cup of water.
"You're the only one who's saying weird things to , so it's not accurate, but I don't think you have any bad intentions. I'm curious. How you get along with other friends. There are only a few people in Korea who are this close to . So I'm a little clumsy in many ways."
"That…"
An unexpected and sudden honesty.
She, who had a unique way of communicating with the world, did not hide anything like this for those who understood her. Was there a need to treat her with the sa mind as others who felt burdened by her?
"Then I'll train him a bit."
"Train?"
"The mont you say, "This requires simple calculations," he will run away. It's easy to see."
Lim So Yool glared.
"Do you know that you say that as a joke a lot these days?"
"It's……not a joke though."
Han Min-gyu, who was sitting at the command office on behalf of a mber who was eating, turned his head to a knock.
"Dad."
His son, Han Jin-gu, a college freshman, waved at the door.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm rooting for our team leader Han, who's having a hard ti even on weekends…….”
"State your business simply."
"……..Please give my allowance in advance."
"Reason?"
"I'm going to a concert hall with just Sunah today. I want to confess afterwards. You have to do it in a good place to succeed."
Han Min-gyu smiled at his son, who revealed the purpose of his visit. He didn't an to use it for bad things, but one had to check the facts accurately.
"Is there a possibility if you confess?"
"It's very high. You know the big theater in Ahyeon-dong, right? There's a "Show the Rhy" stage today, and it was really hard to get this ticket. Sunah really likes it.”
"Because of that, your allowance is about to go bankrupt?"
"You're too sharp."
Han Jin-gu, who saw his father looking through his pocket and took out his wallet, politely gathered his hands together.
"I only have my father."
"Pay back later. This is my ergency fund.”
"Yes sir."
The son, who was very happy for the money, pointed to the walkie-talkie.
"Dad, there's an ergency call".
"Huh?"
Han Min-gyu, who turned his head, quickly pressed the walkie-talkie button, realizing that it was a signal from the general disaster prevention center. He waved one hand and gestured to his son to go quickly.
Bzzzt.
"This is Seodaemun Command Headquarters."
– Multiple collisions occurred at the Daeheung Station intersection. There were many injuries, so there was a request for paradics support. How many people are waiting in Seodaemun-gu?
"Wait a minute."
Han Min-gyu, who saw the situation monitor, imdiately answered.
"Team 2 is on dispatch at the mont, and there are three groups of people waiting for the shift change."
– Please mobilize team 1's vehicles and mobilize all possible personnel.
Han Min-gyu put down his walkie-talkie. Unintentionally, a large number of mbers had to be drawn out during dinner.
Han Min-gyu, who pressed the command amplifier connection button, opened his mouth.
– Ergency support order. First aid. The ntioned groups should co to the front of the transport truck. Group A. Group B…….
Daeheung Intersection, 6:57 PM.
The dark streets were filled with siren lights emitted by a mixture of police cars and fire trucks as the sun went down. Ergency vehicles and transport buses departing from Seodaemun stopped on the road.
-Click.
When Dowook got off the bus, he saw the middle of the intersection recessed and swallowed a groan. Seong Chang Soo's eyes also widened as he followed after him.
"Is that the cause?"”
A 3m-sized pothole in the middle of the road.
It was a complex accident scene in which a vehicle overturned due to that hole and a dozen vehicles that turned the steering wheel in all directions invaded the sidewalk.
The most serious of them was a truck that hit the outer wall of a three-story building under remodeling. The building was destroyed and the steel structure was clearly revealed.
"Everyone, gather up."
All the people who ca gathered at Han Min-kyu's voice.
"Ergency patients were transferred first by Yongsan Station, and our paradics will transfer patients who need quick treatnt among the remaining people. Doctors should prioritize treatnt for severe and minor injuries at the site."
At this instruction, Professor Min Eung-sik asked with a worried face.
"What about patients who can't be treated with these basic tools?"
"Transfers of patients with no rescue or rehabilitation potential are excluded from priority."
Han Min-gyu, who recited the cold principles of the scene of a major accident. The volunteers were forced to beco solemn for a mont.
"Doctor, please do what you can as a doctor. Please."
Han Min-gyu led the regular mbers and disappeared toward where the site manager was standing.
A cry was heard a distance from the dical personnel looking around with ergency bags.
"Please help ! The kid won't stop bleeding!"
"Dr. Seong. We'll go to the right. Call if you need any support. You're holding your cell phone, right?”
"Yes, professor."
There were glances between the doctors from Myeong Sae hospital and the doctors from Hansung Hospital.
Recognizing this was not a situation to think about competition, each hurriedly scattered toward patients in need of doctors.
Seong Chang Soo, who was approaching a man holding a broken arm in front of the collision vehicle, shouted.
"Sangmoon, you take Cheolsoon and Myeongdeok over there. Dowook, you and …… Huh?"
Seong Chang Soo, who turned to the side, tilted his head. It was because he couldn't see Dowook.
"What kind of patient did he go to see alone?"”
In front of the dented car.
Han Min-gyu looked through the rescuee trapped in a vehicle with severe pressure and shouted at the firefighter operating the hydraulic spreader.
"Hold on! A lot of glass particles are falling!"
Han Min-yu, who turned his head, called Lee Ji-seok, who was standing next to the ambulance.
"Jiseok, a blanket over here…….”
"Here you are."
Han Min-gyu, who received an inflammable blanket from soone, made eye contact with the person who handed it over. It was Park Dowook.
"I thought you would need it, so I took it out."
Han Min-gyu, who nodded slightly at his reliable words, approached the driver's seat patient and pushed his head through the window of the half-broken vehicle.
The degree of physical damage to the patient was severe. It was a priority target for transfer.
He covered the patient's whole body with a blanket and said sothing reassuring.
"If you cut the windshield and secure space, you can co out quickly. Cheer up a little bit."
"Oh… Please take out.….”
Han Min-gyu, who got out of the vehicle, looked around the road to see if there was a more serious patient, and paused his gaze at Dowok, who was looking at the scene like him.
He saw a minor patient touching his bruised face, but he turned his eyes imdiately. He seed to be looking for a person in urgent need of treatnt right away. It was to adhere to the principle of priority.
Lee Ji-seok ca up to the side with first aid tools.
"Team leader, where should I go?"
Han Min-gyu thought he would never be able to point to his junior when asked who was more reliable between Lee Ji-seok, who had a month of experience, and Park Dowook, who only had a day of experience.
"Jiseok, you help with rescue work here, and as soon as you take them out, transfer them to the patient car. It's a priority target."
"Yes."
Firefighters were actively moving to take out patients from the crushed vehicle.
Boom!
Following the sound of steel hitting the floor, a radio ca from the site of the building collapse.
Bzzzzt.
– Found one survivor on the debris of the building. Asking nearby paradics to respond.
"I'm the first team leader at Seodaemun Fire Station. How's the survivor doing?"
-It is difficult to confirm because he is losing consciousness.
"I'll go right away."
Dowook ca into Han Min-gyu's eyes as he was trying to move.
The only way to minimize human casualties in such a chaotic field was efficient judgnt and rapid cooperation. In that sense, that doctor was a very good collaborator.
Han Min-gyu, who walked in front of Dowook, said.
"Doctor."
"Yes?"
"We found a survivor in the rubble. Let's go take action together."
