Chapter 213

Episode 213

In fact, Kwon Yeon-hee did not say that the Park siblings were the ones she was worried about.

“hey.”

“what.”

“Will he come visit us?”

“Fuck, I don’t know.”

In the meantime, these two students never thought that anyone other than ‘Uncle’ would come to visit them.

Park Da-young and Park Da-hoon had only been out of the underworld and attending school for a few days, but unlike Ohsung’s employees, they had no means of contacting Lee Jae-heon. Even before we parted ways, the man I saw looked like a corpse or a zombie, so I couldn’t even tell if he was alive.

Even if he survived and escaped the underworld, the Park siblings, who knew that Lee Jae-heon had a very cold side, could not be sure that he would come to visit them.

“If it were just you, we would have found it in no time.”

“Right…”

It seemed like he didn’t even think that Jaeheon Lee wouldn’t be able to find our location.

In many ways, they had a lot of expectations from Lee Jae-heon and the expectations were deep, but they did not think that they would actually receive those expectations in return. This was because the Lee Jae-heon they understood was like an artificial intelligence in a cell phone that only responds when a request is made directly. He gave it up when necessary, but I always felt goodness in him.

“….”

“….”

“…the dead one….”

“Shut up.”

“okay.”

The siblings didn’t even know if Lee Jae-heon was dead or alive.

“There’s no way that zombie-looking guy would have gone out and searched like that…”

The Park siblings were increasingly speaking louder as adults were not in front of them.

“Ah, should I just go and visit?”

“Where? “Intellect?”

“As far as I know, it was an hour or two hours away? What if I take the subway or bus?”

“Wait a minute, I need your phone… It will take about an hour. It’s Five Star Tower, right? No, isn’t it? “Why are they all gathered in one place?”

“…Anyway, if we wait nearby, wouldn’t they find us on their own?”

“Would you like to picket?”

“Ah… it’s not that bad…”

Park Da-young, who had been muttering for a while, drooped down as if she had lost all energy. I was already distracted by mannequins that appeared at any time and startled people, but it was quite boring and frustrating to be stuck in a small space while running in a secret world. I couldn’t even see the faces of the other survivors.

Park Da-hoon, who had been thinking for a moment with his mouth shut, shook his sister’s shoulder, which was sagging on the bench, and said.

“…Hey Park Dayoung.”

“What.”

“Shouldn’t you go into the palm room soon?”

“losing.”

“I’m in class C… and you’re in class A. “I’m sure the teacher will supervise you really hard, right?”

“I’m bored this semester anyway. “It might be hard to dig up tomorrow, so what kind of coconut is it that’s frozen?”

“That’s right….”

Sigh.

Dayoung Park raised her limp body and turned on the screen of her cell phone.

“…Oh look. “It’s over soon.”

“Well, it’s 30 minutes now. “I really had to go in, but when I saw that I was gone, they said it was a parent meeting.”

“Are you worried about that? The teacher even looked at it once or three times. Byuungsin.”

“You sound like a bitch. “Behave well, too. If that teacher gets angry, it’s really scary…”

After wasting time in the hallway, the Park siblings went into their respective palm rooms and pretended to study, but when the teacher in charge came in and told them to leave school, they ran out like the wind. If I were to talk about mental pain, school was more painful than the other side of the world. At least in the other world, a guardian named Lee Jae-heon took care of him and treated him like a child.

I don’t know if it was the first year of high school, but by the second or third year, no one treated me like a child anymore. Not only teachers but also parents did the same. Even the parents of the Park siblings were people who discriminated against each other, so they were not people with whom one could feel free to complain.

“I miss Mr. Ha.”

“If we don’t have time, let’s cut palm trees tomorrow and go to Oseong Tower… Transportation is good.”

“It’s good. “I need to find out if he’s alive or dead.”

“…? oh.”

While saying that, Park Da-hoon, who had a questioning look for a moment, admired the item that Park Da-young took out of the bag. Dayoung Park smiled proudly at her younger brother’s calm and positive response.

It was none other than a cat doll made of light pink fabric.

“This is my preparedness.”

“As expected, you are my sister.”

A round body with plump limbs with blunt ends and two pointed ears. The dress, which was much lighter pink than the body, had sophisticated lace decorations. In addition, there was nothing that did not meet Park Da-young’s standards, even the long tail sticking out of the skirt.

“Hey… where do you sell this stuff?”

Even the doll’s eyes were so sharp and blunt that someone immediately came to mind when I saw it.

“There’s a stationery store in front of the front door. There was a new entry in the lottery machine in front of it. Why is this from that famous animation that kids watch….”

“The main character?”

“No, he’s a villain. It tempts the main character, throws him into the abyss, and then leaves him in despair…”

“They said it was for children.”

“They said he was a villain who discovered potential in the protagonist who overcame it and regained hope and became her ally. For your information, the genre of this is magical girl.”

“The world is coming to an end.”

The two students giggled while looking at the doll.

“Miss, and do you know this? “Can you change his clothes?”

“What the fuck? There is such a damn feature? “Why didn’t I buy clothes quickly?”

“I bought it a long time ago, you idiot. There are also wedding dresses. “It was sold at a stationery store.”

“Are you selling just the main body?…” Just

as they were about to take out a pure white, flashy dress from the bag and put it on the doll, they heard the sound of an object falling in front of them as they left the front door. When I look up past the briefcase lying on the floor, I see…

“Huh?”

“omg.”

It was Lee Jae-heon with a pale face.

“mister…!”

“…What is this crazy….”

“Man, it’s been a really long time!”

“What a hideous thing…”

“Why have you come now!”

A man in his 40s who feels fear after recalling a declaration from the other world, and two teenage students who are busy being happy to see each other regardless of whether the man in his 40s is scared, a pretty cat doll caught between them, and a shiny doll wedding that fell on the floor. dress.

It was a combination that no one could have taken their eyes off of, even though they had no eyes to see.

* * *

“…that’s how we met!”

“…Wow….”

Jeong In-ho looked back at Lee Jae-heon with sad eyes at the clear and lively explanation of the plot.

“Boss.”

“what.”

“I see…”

“What are you talking about?”

“All right.”

“AC….”

Lee Jae-heon frowned.

Thinking about it again, there was something about the sight of two students whose relatives were shamans flirting with a pink cat doll that sent a chill down Lee Jae-heon’s spine. It’s a shame that the Park siblings calmed me down so quickly, but I almost didn’t come to my senses for a while. Actually, I still felt a little dizzy.

Meanwhile, the Park siblings’ expressions remained wide open.

“We even exchanged phone numbers with my uncle!”

“Now you can tap.”

Jeong In-ho smiled and answered in triumph.

“I’m glad. It was difficult because I didn’t have a way to contact you all this time…”

“That’s right.”

Park Da-hoon, who thought for a moment, slowly opened his mouth.

“Can you please give me your phone number?…”

“Oh, that’s right. “Yeonhee, please do it for me too.”

“Wait.”

While chatting about various things, they took out their cell phones and began quietly exchanging numbers. Lee Jae-heon was once again relieved to see that there were no other people around him as he saw two adults and two students, all adults, putting their heads together and looking at their cell phones in front of a pitch-black car.

‘I’m glad there aren’t many people going this way.’

It was a wise decision to park the car a little farther away than the school gate. Regardless of whether or not it would reach the ears of my older brother with the same last name, I was just embarrassed. A bunch of disgusting guys gathered in this corner…

“Manager.”

“hmm?”

“How did you find out about this place, Manager?”

I thought I was finally asking that now.

“…Well, I remembered the uniforms they were wearing, so I searched for the high schools near the park one by one. But it turned out that the school was quite far away from the park, so it took a while to find it.”

Actually, I didn’t wander around for that long. Lee Jae-heon, who read the novel, knew that the reason those guys were near the park at the time was to stop by a certain cafe. It seemed like he was trying to buy a cake sold only at that cafe to celebrate Park Da-hoon’s birthday, which was the day before.

“That’s right, we looked for it for quite some time too.”

“If you’re going to check it that way, please call us too.”

“You guys didn’t have to go on a business trip… Anyway, In-ho Jeong and Yeon-hee Kwon came by on their own.”

“Still, we have a fondness for going together…!”

“Oh really, this person.”

Lee Jae-heon, who mumbled as if he was dumbfounded, swallowed the words he wanted to say more due to the disappointment hidden in Kwon Yeon-hee’s face. For the first time in a while, I tried to be a bit of a brat, but I didn’t know if I kept talking like this, it might cause unnecessary conflict.

Jaeheon Lee rolled his eyes, awkwardly pretending to avoid eye contact.

“Looking for someone blindly takes time and energy, and I’m not sure if I’ll be able to meet them right away…” “…”

“

…No, I’m sorry. “Maybe it’s been a while since I’ve discussed anything with someone else, so I didn’t feel like I needed to tell you right away.”

“…yes yes?”

“I apologize if I offended you by carrying on without saying anything.”

This may create a misunderstanding that ‘Jaeheon Lee has spent a long time moving alone so he feels awkward acting together’, but since there is no problem with probability, we decided to overlook that. It was a perfect way to gain sympathy and prevent a conflict that might arise someday, or as an excuse that could be used even if a conflict did arise.

Kwon Yeon-hee was seen making an effort to hide her embarrassment, perhaps as if Lee Jae-heon was mistaken as expected.

“Oh no…! “I’m not offended. That might be convenient!”

“From now on, we will notify you in a timely manner.”

“Then thank you… It’s really okay.”

Even so, he seemed grateful that ‘Lee Jae-heon’ apologized on this topic in time. It seemed like he was embarrassed to receive a serious response to his playful and light complaints. In particular, Kwon Yeon-hee was a person who gave a lot of meaning to these human relationships.

‘Okay, now there shouldn’t be a problem with likability.’

How many times has the underworld been shown to try to buy some favor from the main character and his group? Because I was so out of my mind, there were a lot of things I committed without even thinking about them, but considering the pain I had gone through in the meantime, I shouldn’t have something that doesn’t matter that reduces my likeability.

“So you stopped by after your business trip?”

“I was on my way home anyway… so I stopped by as a convenience.”

“aha.”

As Park Da-young and Park Da-hoon had a lot of expectations and reliance on ‘Lee Jae-heon’, it was expected that they would act unexpectedly if they could not contact them. Before that, I took advantage of my business trip this week to finish work quickly and stop by Unhak High School.

Then, he muttered softly, as if he had said it unconsciously.

“I was also worried.”

“…were you worried?”

In response to those words, Jaeheon Lee pretended to be puzzled as if to say, ‘Why are you asking all these questions?’

“You…didn’t you?”

“…I see….”

“…Thank you.”

Dayoung Park had a big smile on her face, and Dahoon Park slightly lowered his head. The pink doll held in the hand of a sturdy 18-year-old boy made me frown even though I didn’t intend to.

“What are you looking at now?”

“No, it’s just that.”

“Just what…”

The siblings seemed happy that ‘Lee Jae-heon’ was taking care of them in private, but his actions in the behind-the-scenes world seemed to have made them anxious. In fact, there was an ambiguous wall between them, so it was easy for them to be unsure about their relationship. The reason I’m asking you if you were worried is probably because you want to confirm this relationship.

Kwon Yeon-hee and the Park siblings aren’t the only ones who have these sentiments, so we had to use this opportunity to make them feel as much as possible that ‘even though Lee Jae-heon is awkward at expressing himself, he deep down believes in them.’ If possible, I would have to show some results before my next trip to the other side of the world.

‘Once this is over, I have to finish Choi’s father and son’s work.’

Yeonhee Kwon: Before you explode mentally, you need to move from marketing to planning. To do that, it would be a good idea to gather the managers and have a dinner together. As soon as time allows, check that Hong Gyeong-jun is handling the work, gather the survivors, obtain consent forms for personal information infringement, and check whether there is a ‘sponsor’ and connection in the Lee family….

“ ….”

Lee Jae-heon sighed.

“Boss?”

“…I was just thinking about some random things.”

There was so much to do.
