Chapter 165

Episode 165

Dansomi woke up early in the morning and was hungry.

Normally, I would have pestered Jang Sam-tae to fill my stomach, but since he was away, Dan So-mi and Namgung So-hye have been in charge of the kitchen.

However, Namgoong Sohye was absent recently, so Dan Somi was the only one there.

I hurriedly opened my eyes, stood up, and stretched greatly.

“Keueuung-!”

If I do this, won’t I grow taller?

Dan Somi, who was shorter than other children her age, wanted to be taller, so it was her daily routine to stretch out loud every morning.

Well, it doesn’t seem to be getting any bigger.

With slumped shoulders, I opened the door and went out.

The manor was strangely quiet today.

Normally, you would have seen Namgung-cheon or Sadohak who woke up early, but there was only an empty atmosphere in the manor, as if no one was there.

“huh’?”

I trudged,

taking small steps often and heading to a place where people were likely to be. The sound coming from afar seemed like someone was there.

As Dan So-mi cautiously approached the place, she saw the wide-eyed Ho Yeon-ji working hard at making alcohol.

Should I pretend to know?

However, if you talk to her while she is making alcohol, you will likely be caught and have to make alcohol again.

The first time I made alcohol, it was a lot of fun. I remember making it with joy as even Danwoohyeon praised it and said it was delicious.

But as time passed, I got tired of it.

Moreover, I had no desire to make alcohol right now.

So for now, it’s better to just quietly pretend not to notice.

Dan So-mi decided to ignore Ho Yeon-ji and turned her back.

“Umm, where have you been?”

I walked quickly and headed toward the kitchen.

It felt strange walking alone in the quiet manor.

There weren’t many people, but the once noisy place was quiet, so I felt a sense of strangeness.

The moment I puffed out my cheeks and headed to the kitchen, I noticed something strange under the wall.

Dansomi tilted her head and walked towards there.

“What is this?”

There was something in the dirt.

It’s red.

Dansomi turned her head and looked elsewhere.

Things that look like human hair are falling out.

Did an animal come in?

When I looked closely at the wall, I saw traces of cuts made with something like a knife.

Dansomi, who had been staring at it, suddenly stood up.

“huh!”

‘Let’s pretend we didn’t see it.’

Nothing would have happened here.

It was best to believe that.

This wasn’t the first time this happened, and before I knew it, sweet Somi had become sweet.

Sometimes, when I was left at Hong Won-chang’s house and returned a few days later, I saw strange things buried in the manor.

Since Jang Sam-tae made a fuss every time he cleaned it, Dan So-mi thought there was no need to worry about it.

Because I didn’t think it would be a good idea to dig deeper.

‘Our house is strange, so things like that happen often.’

I nodded with understanding.

Dansomi turned around again and entered the kitchen.

There was nothing left of the rice I ate yesterday.

“Come here, wow.”

I sat down on the spot, held out my hand, and called out. But the cat turned its head away as if laughing.

“Aren’t you coming? Then let’s go catch it! “If Somi goes to catch me, it’s going to be a big problem, right?”

Meow –

A small cry was heard.

It seemed like he was telling me to do something.

Dan So-mi, who could not understand the meaning at all, but was strangely proud, clenched her hands and burned her fighting spirit.

I became anxious because I had to catch that little guy before he ran away.

Even though I was already running in a rough place, I was prone to stumbling, and running also seemed dangerous due to the thorny trees and rocks.

But Dansomi did not give in. I ran forward with the determination to catch it.

Fortunately, the guy just watches quietly until Dansomi approaches.

The moment we quickly close the distance.

months!

With just one leap, the cat in front of me disappeared.

I searched with my eyes closed, but I still couldn’t see him.

” Yes-?”

I quietly looked around with a blank expression.

Still, there was no white cat to be seen.

The moment I opened my eyes, I felt a weight on my head. At the same time, I saw a pure white tail slightly lowering in front of my eyes.

“Eight!”

He screamed loudly and tried to catch the cat above his head with both hands. However, the hand waved in the air without fail, and the cat landed lightly and flew away.

The snow-white cat landed as lightly as a feather on a sharp rock.

“Mr. Lee!”

Dansomi, with her cheeks full of air, stamped her feet on the floor. It was right in front of me, but I was frustrated because I couldn’t catch it.

A small cry was heard again.

Meow.

The sound seemed like a provocation. Although she has a dansomi personality that doesn’t get angry most of the time, this time it seemed like that wasn’t the case and she quickly ran over to close the distance.

As soon as she reached the corner and was about to catch the cat with both hands, the cat jumped up, kicked Dansomi’s head, and landed again, widening the distance.

Meow-!

“hey!”

He waved his small hands and expressed his dissatisfaction.

I got angry when I thought I was being teased by the cat.

However, the cat stared at Dansomi without budging from that spot, and eventually turned its back, perhaps trying to go somewhere else.

“Where are you going?!”

Dan Somi shouted in surprise.

However, the cat only slightly turned its head, looked at Dansomi, purred softly, and jumped up.

Dan So-mi quickly stretched out her hand and tried to get closer, but the fog in front of her eyes suddenly cleared and the surrounding scenery changed in an instant.

“uh...?”

The fog disappeared and no strange trees or rocks were visible.

I could see the forest a little away from the manor and the sparkling water of Dongdong Lake.

Dan So-mi, who was standing blankly, rubbed her eyes.

Was what happened a moment ago a dream?

I pinched my cheek.

But it just hurt.

“Hi...”

He stroked his sore cheek and turned his back.

‘I’ll have to go back and ask my dad first.’

What happened today was a very strange and wonderful story for young Dansomi.
