Episode 372
“This bastard jumped out!!”
Kim Yeon-woo, who had been searching the mountain behind him, shouted out in frustration.
“For a big guy to jump around needlessly…!”
“Please calm down, Mr. Kim Yeonwoo.”
“I should have hung it from a tree!”
“Oh… it’s not that bad, just calm down.”
Kim Yeon-woo, Jeong In-ho, and Han Do-yoon, who were dispatched to check whether they could stay in the mountain behind them again, expressed their disapproval with different expressions. They also had no idea that they would suddenly encounter a serial killer nad Song In-myeong in a place like this.
Only Lee Jae-heon, who was the only one who had Song In-myeong in mind, cald down the survivors with a shocked expression. He wasn’t happy about Song In-myeong’s appearance, but he couldn’t leave this confusion as is.
“You missed it anyway. “You have to think about how you will respond the next ti you encounter it.”
I felt it at the park before, but Song In-myeong was very fast on his feet compared to his size. His qualifications as a fugitive were confird by the fact that he openly encountered him on the mountain behind him and missed Song In-myeong even though it was a 4 to 1 advantageous chase. Now that I had completely missed it, I couldn’t even guess where it was hiding.
“That is correct. “I guess I got a little excited.”
“First, I have to let others know that Song In-myeong has arrived.”
“Oh really… I have more things to worry about.”
Lee Jae-heon thought as he watched the group catching their breath while chasing Song In-myeong.
‘…Actually, it might not be that bad….’
If done well, I think it could be useful when visiting Eonhak High School.
As always, it was an idea that would get strangled if I got caught.
* * *
There were many reasons why Lee Jae-heon wanted to use Song In-myeong, but the most important thing was that Song In-myeong was an acquaintance of the art teacher at Eonhak High School.
‘We probably didn’t know where we were, but the fact that we were hanging around near Eonhak High School… must have ant that my guess was correct to so extent. Even if they don’t know each other, there is a high probability that they at least know how the art teacher works. They ca to see the work of an art teacher in the sa industry, and when they found us, they started provoking us to see our reaction.’
And that was enough.
I visited Unhak High School a few tis in the last episode, so I know that the art teacher is obsessed with plaster statues, but I don’t know how the art teacher’s thoughts, expected to be the final boss, were specifically created. I don’t even know what rules I have to overco to kill the final boss of Eonhak High School.
The only way to get a clue about this without having to experience it.
‘As of now, that’s Song In-myeong… he’s not a crazy guy who can’t communicate at all.’
Although he was crazy, Song In-myeong was different from a simple pleasure killer. Song In-myeong, who had a firm view of art, was a ticulous crazy person who proudly attended university while playing around in the industry. It ans that he has the self-control to endure as much as he can for his ‘work’.
So, it wasn’t at a level where you couldn’t use it if you were careful. In fact, in so cases, better results may be obtained than entering a language school with only an existing exploration team.
“….”
The question is….
“Shall we form a chase team?”
“Your feet are too fast. “There is a high possibility that we will be defeated while pursuing.”
“I’d rather dig a trap. “I think it’s better than pursuing it myself.”
The survivor’s animosity toward Song In-myeong was too severe.
‘If this is the case, will it be a problem even if I ask for Song In-myeong’s cooperation?’
Jaeheon Lee shook his head as he looked at the survivors shaking with anxiety.
‘It seems impossible to accept them as part of the sa group, so it would be better to encourage them to move separately. Then, even though Song In-myeong is not completely accepted here, we have to hang around here and throw so bait that will attract Gumi so that we can continue to interact with him….’
Still, I was annoyed.
‘If it had been the world of my past life, I wouldn’t have had to worry this much.’
In the world of my previous life, unauthorized murder was illegal, and of course there was a basic resistance to it, but it was not as severe as this soft world. In his previous life, Lee Jae-heon also received help from habitual criminals if necessary. Even if the swords of those habitual criminals were pointed at him, it was the sa.
And his co-workers didn’t say anything about it either. Regardless of the cris an individual had accumulated and their abilities, it was common sense to use them if they had abilities that were helpful to the project in question, no matter what cri they had committed. Lee Jae-heon also wanted to write Song In-myeong that way.
“Chief, are you okay?”
“…Everyone has been asking that since a while ago, but it’s okay. It’s perfectly fine, so please stop asking.”
“But in the park… yes, I understand.”
Lee Jae-heon’s expression beca even more depressed. This was because the way Jeong In-ho asked how I was doing seed to say, ‘I have a lot to say, but you look distraught, so I will bear with you.’
‘What can this chick put up with? ‘This is absurd.’
Of course, now it seems like he has returned to being a middle-aged chick with soft, dry fur, but the absurdity is still the sa. Wasn’t it just yesterday that I was wandering around the apartnt trying to get the main character to co to his senses? I don’t know since when did you start worrying about others just because you’re so good?
“Ha….”
Since the atmosphere was different, I thought it would be a good idea to coax Song In-myeong separately.
‘…Song In-myeong was looking for so kind of material.’
The answer ca quickly. Kim Yeon-woo, Munsan-gun ‘Lee Jae-heon’. Didn’t people with sacrificial aspects that were so heterogeneous beco Song In-myeong’s targets?
‘Then how should I decorate the image…? I think it would be good if Song In-myeong was obsessed with the material and put pressure on the survivors. If we go along with their efforts, the emotional burden on our side will be alleviated. If you want to get people to cooperate in the underworld right now, wouldn’t it be better to negotiate so that you can get more real benefits in reality? Yeah, that would be better. In that case, rather than acting like a victim who has been thoroughly threatened, it would be more interesting to act calmly like he did in the park…’
Lee Jae-heon’s eyes turned to Vivian.
‘If you use that guy too, the effect will be doubled.’
As soon as he heard the news of Song In-myeong, he lowered his head and said nothing.
The guy who had beco quite talkative after the apartnt incident compared to before when he behaved like a gomtaeng, closed his mouth again. It ant that the existence of Song In-myeong still had a lot of influence on him.
‘That much… Song In-myeong must also be caring about Vivian.’
In the first place, Song In-myeong was working on his own long-term project targeting Seo Jang-hwa and Vivian. Since he is obsessed with his art, his interest in Vivian would not have diminished even if he had kept his distance. Jaeheon Lee decided to go with Vivian if possible.
‘In that case, you should prepare a space for Song In-myeong to contact Vivian first…’
“Mister!”
“….”
“…Are you okay, uncle?”
Before I knew it, Park Da-young had co next to and was looking up at Lee Jae-heon with an anxious expression.
“Your eyes are gray.”
“ah.”
This is why the underworld is uncomfortable.
“it’s okay.”
Even if his thoughts strayed slightly into a dangerous direction, it was visually noticeable, so it was quite a hassle for soone like Lee Jae-heon, who needed to use everything, including himself, to solve his instincts.
‘It’s not a warning light or anything.’
Lee Jae-heon, who was secretly laughing at himself, made up his worries and said.
“As you may have heard, I t Song In-myeong again. If possible, stay close to adults as they may threaten you in so way. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to gather together with students. If we all stick together, we won’t touch you just because of the number of people…”
“Then I’d like to stay with you.”
Can not be done. Lee Jae-heon had to see a deal with Song In-myeong.
“…I’m a bit like that, aren’t I?”
“why? I like you. “I want to stay next to you.”
“It wouldn’t be particularly useful.”
“….”
“Why do you take prey that slls like blood?”
So, she ant to stop following around, but Park Da-young beca tearful with her mouth wide open.
Jaeheon Lee frowned.
“…Why do you look like that?”
“…Why do you say that…?”
“Huh.”
I guess the words were too explicit.
‘Fucking chick.’
Park Da-young was crying even though she was a survivor who knew that if they died, they would co back to life. Lee Jae-heon once again felt troubled in this soft world. Since the entire world was like this, it seed impossible for the chicks to grow into full-fledged chickens, contrary to his wishes.
‘I wish for sothing so great.’
Lee Jae-heon massaged his forehead with his hand and continued speaking.
“…I’m trying to cause so trouble by staying next to you.”
“I’m worried about you. “Can’t we stay together?”
“Uh huh… you don’t listen to adults again.”
How long will I have to tolerate this arrogance?
“When I say sothing nice, I stick with Park Da-hoon. “Be next to Jeong In-ho or Hong Gyeong-jun.”
“But…”
“It’s a hassle, so stay away. “I wasn’t asking that much, was I?”
“….”
“Park Da-young.”
The chick looked very intimidated and nodded.
“…Yes….”
“I’m with my friends.”
“Hmph.”
“I told you not to do that.”
“Hing.”
When I saw him playing around, he wasn’t really intimidated.
‘Gross chick.’
Even as he was returning to his friends’ side, he glanced at ‘Lee Jae-heon’ and even exchanged glances with Park Da-hoon, so it seed like he was trying to gauge Lee Jae-heon’s intentions rather than being hurt by his words.
‘Why do you think I said this harshly on purpose for your sake? It’s just that I’m starting to get tired of going through filters, you chick. I think it would be nice if we t.’
The instincts of an old man that had been buried deep in my heart for a while ca out.
How on earth did a man nad Lee Jae-heon notice chicks? The pride I had carefully put in at the ti when I planned to help the main character and his group was from my past life, not from my current life. maybe.
“Chief…”
“What, why, what?”
“Why do you really talk like that?”
“whatever.”
Jeong In-ho, who was watching the whole situation from the side, looked at Lee Jae-heon with a subtle gaze, but honestly, Lee Jae-heon had endured a lot at this level. Lee Jae-heon himself couldn’t take advantage of other people’s ntal breakdowns.
furthermore.
“That doesn’t work anymore, Manager.”
“Are you going to keep complaining about what adults say, Assistant Manager Jeong? “Are you of the rank to say sothing like this to ?”
“You’re saying it doesn’t work?”
Now, even if Lee Jae-heon speaks out loud, no one takes it seriously.
“Huh.”
Never mind, really.
‘I wanted this, but I didn’t want it to this extent.’
Even high school students who had not experienced ‘Lee Jae-heon’ for that long were looking at him with complex and subtle eyes, so it was true that Lee Jae-heon’s aim, which was not his aim, completely worked. At this point, Lee Jae-heon also thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be okay to loosen the reins a little bit?’
“If you’re tired, rest.”
“It’s okay.”
And that’s where I wanted this in the first place and started working in an apartnt.
“I’m not even sick, so why do you keep ddling?”
If he had gone that far, it wouldn’t have been surprising if ‘Lee Jae-heon’ had a ntal breakdown.
The timing was just right. In addition to the work at the apartnt, Song In-myeong also appeared, and the personnel to attract Vivian had been prepared in advance, so if only one of Kwon Yeon-hee or Woo Woo-young was provoked, they would respond quickly. Jaeheon Lee was secretly satisfied with his solid plan.
“I said there was no pain, but I can’t believe it’s still bleeding…”
“Why are you making such a fuss? “It’s hard to breathe because of the bleeding bandage.”
“Chief…”
“I’m saying it’s okay? “Stop calling it, it hurts my ears.”
‘Lee Jae-heon’s’ schedule so far has been quite difficult. Even when others were resting in the garden, Lee Jae-heon opened a counseling center to save such chicks, and even after that, they were rolling around in a sinkhole, saying that they had been selected as sacrifices. It is a natural situation even if ‘Lee Jae-heon’s’ thoughts and senses are a little distorted.
And the place I need to visit from now on is Eonhak High School. In order to secure the possibility that Lee Jae-heon could operate freely in that space full of eccentric monsters and rules, it was necessary to let people know that ‘Lee Jae-heon’s’ spirit was slowly breaking down.
“You may have heard it before… but if possible, help the students.”
“What about the manager?”
“Why .”
“… Manager, don’t go alone.”
“Isn’t it better to go alone?”
“….”
“Song In-myeong may co looking for , so if I want to minimize the damage….”
“Manager.”
“What else?”
“hmm.”
Jeong In-ho blinked his black eyes.
“You’re talking nonsense.”
“….”
Jaeheon Lee thought.
‘I end up dragging Song In-myeong into it.’
Just to see that straight smile distort.
