Chapter 167

Episode 167

After meeting Song In-myeong like this, Lee Jae-heon had two options.

‘I’m leaving it behind once.’

Looking at the clinging snails, if left alone, they were likely to invade the residence where the group was currently captured. In that case, although Choi Min-hong, who was young and could not understand the situation well, did not know, Munsan-gun was likely to faint. Given his personality, I don’t think he could be angry at the assailant.

When you think about the two victims, a good option is to shake them off somehow and move on.

‘But number two goes together.’

In this case, Lee Jae-heon was able to shamelessly modify the work.

“Are you okay, Kang Min-ah? What happen.”

“I’m not like that...”

“If there’s any inconvenience, I’ll go back quickly.”

He looked at Kang Min-ah, who was on the verge of going crazy with frustration, with an expression on his face that said he knew nothing.

In any case, Kang Min-ah did not tell Lee Jae-heon that she had memories, and Jung In-ho never explained Song In-myeong in detail. He might take the position that he recognized his name when he heard it, but as of now, it didn’t seem like Song In-myeong would introduce himself carelessly.

‘That’s right, Kang Min-ah is being overly cautious, so a not-so-stupid bastard would turn his head.’

Song In-myeong, who was watching the situation to see if his prediction was correct, opened his mouth.

“Are you going to ignore people like this and just go? “It’s a bit unpleasant like this.”

“...I’m sorry, but the group’s condition is not good.”

“So why should I be offended because you’re so sensitive? huh?”

“....”

“Isn’t it a bit too much for the same survivors to be together?”

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like it will fall down smoothly.

‘I pretty much know what you’re thinking.’

The most reasonable guess that came to Song In-myeong’s mind was that Munsan-gun explained Song In-myeong to Kang Min-ah in detail after joining this group. I may have thought of other cases, but since he is a guy who uses his brain quite a bit, I don’t think he would let his guard down.

‘I’ve taken the position that I don’t know who you are, so I’m going to worry about that as well.’

Then, we can eliminate the possibility that ‘Lee Jae-heon’ must realize Song In-myeong’s identity right away, so all we have to do is tag this guy like this and bring him in front of Jeong In-ho and Munsan-gun... ‘I don’t know right now, but I have an excuse to step in as bait

. ‘

He made up his mind.

‘Let’s take him.’

If Jung In-ho had heard, I would have grabbed him by the back of his neck and collapsed, but he always talks about it. Originally, all lies in the world became the truth if they were not caught. Lee Jae-heon made up his mind to take Song In-myeong to his residence, despite his unwillingness to do so.

“I also have no desire to fight with other people.”

“Then please deal with me. I just ignored you from a while ago. My sister over there just keeps glaring at me... I can’t help but feel bad if I don’t want to. “How can I feel better when I’m suddenly treated like a monster?”

“Why are you holding your horse’s tail?”

“It’s nothing special, but I’m also curious about your team.”

“What...”

“Can we say hello?”

Aren’t you full of thoughts of what will follow?

‘That’s a good thing.’

He nodded inwardly.

It was already a pain in the ass because the main character’s child was putting a lot of unnecessary effort into it. While I was wondering how to provoke Song In-myeong and how to get hurt in front of Hong Gyeong-jun, I would rather be grateful that he came to visit me like this. Now that things were like this, all they had to do was quickly get rid of Song In-myeong and go fight against the green algae monster.

Of course, on the outside, he was showing his disapproval by furrowing his eyebrows, but Lee Jae-heon also opened his mouth to bring this difficult-to-dispose of trash to the group.

“That might be a bit difficult. As you can see, our group is quite sensitive, so it’s not a good time to say hello. “Can’t the student give in?”

“Is this something you can give up and sleep on? I’m just saying hello with pure intentions. Look, you’re doubting me this much, so you don’t feel bad about me? “Aren’t you suspicious of everyone you meet?”

“Apart from that, the situation now....”

“What is the situation and why? Until just now, I saw the two of you talking nicely. As soon as I came, you started acting so sensitive. “It’s not just me that’s the problem now.”

Lee Jae-heon snorted inwardly at the sight of Song In-myeong deliberately pretending to be angry. Even if they insisted like that, there was virtually no situation where Kang Min-ah and Lee Jae-heon would be harmed, but the problem was that Kang Min-ah was very conscious of Song In-myeong.

“...Just come this way.”

“Then what are you going to do?”

“....”

“Aha, are you trying to kill me?”

It was an obvious provocation, but ‘Lee Jae-heon’ looked at the two people in turn with a slightly surprised expression. I was wondering why the situation had to turn out so badly. That is, until just now, Kang Min-ah was able to have a calm conversation with ‘Lee Jae-heon’.

Kang Min-ah bit her lip at the sight of ‘Lee Jae-heon’ like that.

“...Kang Min-ah?”

“I’m sorry. It’s not like that, but... But that person...”

Even though he hesitated several times, in the end, the words ‘That bastard is a murderer’ never came out of his mouth. Regardless of how he knew that, he seemed to be worried about how much ‘Lee Jae-heon’ would believe him if he spoke up and whether he would be provoking that murderous bastard for no reason.

‘There are no witnesses and we have the upper hand in number, so if it were Jung In-ho, we would have killed him first, but isn’t Kang Min-ah a returnee?’

Song In-myeong must have sensed her, and was fiddling with his leg.

“If you reject others that much, you won’t be able to use it, sister.”

“....”

“This really hurts.”

“what?”

“No, this doesn’t matter?”

Even as he muttered that, his face looked quite appetizing.

‘That’s the goal, though.’

Jaeheon Lee inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. It was because I remembered Song In-myeong, who was greatly impressed by Lee Jae-heon’s change in speaking style in the last episode. I don’t know exactly what attracted me, but I think I was drawn to a dual aspect that would not be visible to an ordinary person.

‘...No, it’s not like I’m playing some kind of dating simulation game...’

Anyway, in this episode, Song In-myeong asked if the tendencies were similar, pretending not to be interested.

“But what really happened? I feel like I’m too sensitive to people I’ve never met before. “Has anyone been seriously injured?”

“...It’s not a big deal, but...”

Lee Jae-heon pretended to be a little relieved and continued talking, ignoring Kang Min-ah, who was looking at him with anxious eyes.

“Can’t you tell by looking at my condition? No, you don’t know? With things like this, other guys naturally become sensitive. “In a way, it’s because of me that Minah overreacted, so please just let her go.”

“...Now that I think about it, you’re hurt quite a bit, mister.”

“There are so many monsters.”

“For that matter, she seems to be fine in some way...”

As she said that, her eyes sparkled with interest for a moment.

‘Okay, this is it.’

Lee Jae-heon cried out in joy.

Look, fuck. What a greedy prey I am. If I go this far, are you really not going to follow me? huh? Have you ever been that patient? Where has all the sincerity that was shown in the last episode gone? A bastard who calls himself an artist can’t even endure this much? Can you still say you make art?

Lee Jae-heon, who skillfully hid his true feelings, frowned as if displeased.

“...I think you’re thinking something strange right now?”

“Honestly, it’s strange. Didn’t that sister avoid everything on her own because of you? Now that I think about it, I also heard something from someone on our side... Are you Jaeheon Lee by any chance?”

“....”

Lee Jae-heon blinked once and asked again.

“...Kim Yeon-woo....”

“Oh, I guess you remember. “The police officer’s sister was really worried about him.”

After saying that, Song In-myeong sighed as if there was nothing he could do and took a step forward.

“It’s not going to work. It’s too bad to keep going like this.”

“...What is this...”

“It’s really strange. Why did you get hurt like that alone? I’m sorry for doubting you, but it’s something that can’t be helped. “If there really is no problem, then there’s no problem at all if I follow along, right?”

“....”

“I’ll just introduce you to my team members and then leave. huh?”

Lee Jae-heon almost forgot his face and clapped his hands.

‘That’s right, you bastard...!’

That’s it! I thought it was so frustrating that I was frustrated. A very young guy with a lot of spirit....

“....”

It’s hard to make a living.

Lee Jae-heon, who had been speaking in tongues for the first time in a while, kept his mouth shut due to the sudden embarrassment that came over him. Because I thought it was funny that I wholeheartedly welcomed the murderer’s visit, saying that I would go out and search for it. I had the feeling that my mentality was really being weakened.

“how is it?”

“....”

“Mister? hey?”

“...Kang Min-ah.”

He reflexively turned away from Song In-myeong’s voice and turned to Kang Min-ah.

“Are you sure you don’t mind? “If we leave it like this, I think things will get worse.”

“That over there...”

He looked a little embarrassed.

‘I guess they hoped I would notice on my own.’

Unfortunately, the current ‘Lee Jae-heon’ has lost his mentality and lacks insight.

There were many excuses. First of all, his physical condition was one of the factors that undermined his spirit, and more than anything, ‘Jae-heon Lee’ was still under the influence of the green algae monster. It would also be nice to have a story where the character just met a monster abandoned dog and lost whatever mental strength he had.

‘It’s similar in reality.’

In conclusion, it means that Kang Min-ah’s overreaction and Jung In-ho’s comment about ‘Song In-myeong’ were not brought to mind. In the current situation, I am consciously blocking it in case the killer in front of me introduces himself.

“...yes I’m okay.”

In the end, Kang Min-ah seemed to have given up. In any case, he probably thought there was no need to provoke the killer in this place where there were many people who would stop him when he returned and few who would help him.

Perhaps, if Kang Min-ah had confessed about her dream sooner, the story would have been a little different. Or that Jung In-ho revealed that he was a regressor in front of others. Then, even Lee Jae-heon, who is now out of his wits, would have realized that the person in front of him was a dangerous killer.

“...I heard that’s true....”

“Okay.”

“Yes, shall we move together?”

Around that time, Jaeheon Lee thought.

‘Isn’t this why smooth communication between team members is important?’

At least it wasn’t a thought he could think of.
