Episode 527
“Why are they causing so much trouble?”
Lee Jae-heon’s nonchalant muttering gave Song In-myeong goosebumps.
“You probably don’t know that my method is right... but I don’t know why you hate it so much.”
“....”
“Are you sick, In-myeong?”
Song In-myeong bit his lip and nodded shakily at the cool question in a soft tone.
My arm, which had been caught by Lee Jae-heon and bent backwards, hurt as if it were torn. Normally, the police’s subduing methods wouldn’t be this bad, but I don’t know where Lee Jae-heon learned this. This seemed like a technique that was much more focused on inflicting pain rather than subduing. It seemed like I had intentionally broken it so that it hurt, but it hurt so much that I broke into a cold sweat.
Jaeheon Lee was calm as his arm stood at the crossroads of whether or not the joint would be completely destroyed.
“I shouldn’t have listened to you like that. I don’t want to scold a sincere and capable team member like Inmyeong like this, but you have friends who have to be scolded like this to listen to you, so it’s really difficult for you....” “....” “Did I make things too
difficult
? ? However, even if what I said was difficult, I am sure that Inmyeong would have understood it correctly, so it seems like the reason he is rebelling like this is just to torment me. “Isn’t that right?”
“...Oh no....”
“It’s okay to be cocky on a regular basis... I understand. Since it is my role to embrace and lead such things, I am able to smile enough. But if you interfere with what should be done, it is bound to be a problem.”
My arm, which was bent in an angle when I put a little weight on it, screamed.
“Ugh...! evil...!”
“Song In-myeong is smart, so you understood everything, right?”
“....”
“Why is there no answer?”
“...Oh, I understand....”
“Right?”
Lee Jae-heon, with a small smile, released the restraints and got out of the way, and Song In-myeong stroked his arm, which was so numb that it seemed to be half jointed. Song In-myeong whimpered from the dog-like pain and injustice.
“Oh my... are you crying? “I don’t have a knack for soothing people.”
“The man is trash....”
“Oh, this is really unfortunate, because I hear it all the time, so it doesn’t really hit me. “If you want a proper response, I recommend finding a more novel swear word.”
“....”
“...Inmyeong? “Where are you looking now...”
Song In-myeong, looking for an opportunity, jumped out again with the doll.
Still, this time he was caught in 13 minutes.
Wow, that’s a huge improvement compared to 5 minutes!
“Are my words funny?”
“Nooooook!”
“It’s not? “Do you think it’s funny?”
“Ahhhh, save the person!”
“Where does the dog bark?”
In the end, Song In-myeong, who was caught, was strangled by Lee Jae-heon and was shaken for a long time.
“It will come back to life anyway, so I can’t kill it... This is really troublesome.”
“Cluck, cough, cough...”
“Are you done coughing?”
“Oh, not yet...”
“I know everything is done, so let’s have a productive conversation.”
Lee Jae-heon sat in front of Song In-myeong, who was sprawled out.
“How should I explain it so you understand my method?”
“...Still trying to persuade me...? “I thought they were going to beat me up and try to physically persuade me.”
“Song In-myeong is a good teammate, so I don’t want to cause animosity if possible. Antipathy among team members has a negative impact not only on the individual concerned but also on the entire team, ultimately slowing down progress or leading to failure. “I decided that I needed the sincere consent of my friend Song In-myeong.”
“...AC....”
In response to Lee Jae-heon insisting that he would try to persuade, Song In-myeong made a fuss but adjusted his posture and sat down.
To be honest, it was because Song In-myeong was in a disadvantageous situation to compete in a hand-to-hand combat. Very surprisingly.
‘I never thought I would be treated like this by an office worker in my life...’
I just thought it had a monster-like vibe to it, but I never thought it would really be as strong as a monster.
No, I thought it would be like this. I’ve heard that physical abilities in the other world depend on mental strength, but isn’t this too much?
‘...is not it? In the last episode, I was in a somewhat similar context.’
Anyway, Lee Jae-heon was so strong that he was confused as to what he had eaten wrong, and Song In-myeong had just left the souvenir shop and was in a state of lack of energy.
“...?”
Jaeheon Lee was confused.
“They’re children, aren’t they?”
“And they are your chicks too.”
“...Has Jaeheon Lee ever opened a kindergarten?”
“It really annoys me that my tone of voice becomes softer in front of the kids. Okay, it’s ready. The age range varies from those in their 40s to kindergarteners, but if it’s a kindergarten, it’s still a kindergarten. Anyway, there are two kindergarten students.”
“It’s not called kindergarten.”
“Are you ignoring our little ones now? “Are you ignoring me just because there are two kindergarten students?”
Minhong Choi confidently intervened in a topic about which he knew nothing.
“Ignore me?”
Jaeheon Lee corrected it.
“...the correct way to say it to an adult is to ignore it.”
“Are you ignoring me?”
“If I were to modify it just a little bit, ‘don’t ignore it’ would be a more effective expression.”
“Don’t ignore it.”
“Good job...”
Lee Jae-heon, who was talking to Choi Min-hong, blinked and covered his mouth with his hand.
“...? ...??”
His face looked like he didn’t understand why he was having this conversation.
‘? ‘Does this work?’
Song In-myeong was delighted with this surprising discovery and gently pushed Jang Seo-ah towards Lee Jae-heon.
“Now go. “It’s time for you to step up.”
“...I, I....”
“Only you can do this. “Go and save him.”
“....”
Jang Seo-ah clenched her hands and nodded.
Jang Seo-ah, who was feeling restless, walked over and hugged Lee Jae-heon, who was sitting. Jang Seo-ah was hesitant, perhaps because the crazy zombie man was a bit unfamiliar to her, but when I held her, she started rubbing her head as if it was a familiar embrace.
Choi Min-hong also came forward as the cat seemed to be showing intimacy.
“! me too! “Hands too!”
“...Give me your hand, not your hand... No... Not this....”
“Give me your hand!”
“...Huh....”
Eventually, two kindergarten students settled down on Lee Jae-heon’s legs. In other words, Jaeheon Lee could not get up unless he cleaned up the kindergarten students.
‘...If I run around with the doll like this, won’t I be able to catch up?’
He had such hopeful thoughts for a while, but he felt like the situation would get out of hand if the kindergarten students got hurt, so Song In-myeong quietly gave up on the plan. I had no choice but to hold out until chicks with more stable power than kindergarteners arrived.
And thanks to the kindergarten students taking the time, Song In-myeong was able to figure out how to solve the problem to some extent. At the very least, he got a sense of how the conversation should proceed.
“Whoa...”
Song In-myeong took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“mister.”
“...yes.”
“What kind of person do you think you are?”
“....”
Lee Jae-heon, who frowned as if it was a difficult question, soon gave an answer.
“...Villain?”
“That’s a bit heartbreaking, so what exactly is the villain?”
“All villains are the same.”
Jaeheon Lee looked quite delicate.
“Aren’t you someone who can make people happy when you die?”
“Oh yes, I see.”
“Was I wrong?”
“Let’s start from there.”
That’s how the second game started.
I never thought I would really think like this, but Song In-myeong decided to look into psychiatry once he escaped.
