Episode 561
The survivors who retrieved the kindergarten students arrive at the concert venue.
“oh my god.”
Ha Seong-yoon was impressed.
“One human being’s spirit can go this far.”
Garam Yoon heard him muttering, ‘I should have written a thesis,’ and looked at him with an anxious face.
Han Do-yoon, who was supporting Yoon Garam, was similar. I was wondering if I was inadvertently provoking Lee Jae-heon, who seemed unstable at first glance.
Ha Seong-yoon was not unaware of the thoughts of his colleagues, but he approached Lee Jae-heon and asked.
“What is your name?”
“My name is Jaeheon Lee.”
“Did I say you don’t remember me?”
“I don’t remember a single thing.”
“This crazy patient.”
Lee Jae-heon noticed Ha Seong-yoon’s pure exclamation and opened his mouth.
“...Are you a doctor?”
“Of course, I am a doctor. “Do you forget that?”
“sorry.”
Jeong In-ho’s round smile instantly distorted at the sight of Lee Jae-heon meekly apologizing.
“Isn’t this a bit unfair?”
Seo Jang-hwa, who was next to him, asked with a worried look on his face.
“What is so unfair?”
“Why did the gentleman who didn’t even bother to apologize to me why in front of Ha Seong-yoon...”
“Are you a saint? “Didn’t you say you’re in your 30s?”
Seo Jang-hwa felt fed up.
‘I don’t know why people who are fine when they are alone become so childish when they get together.’
If Jung In-ho, Ha Seong-yoon, and Hong Gyeong-jun had something in common, it was that they were most mature when they were apart. I don’t know why, but when two or more of those guys get together, they fight like kids.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Ha Seong-yoon and Lee Jae-heon was progressing calmly.
“Where did you blow off your wrist?”
“Oh, it will be in the souvenir shop.”
“I think this is information that Minhong would have really enjoyed if he had heard it.”
“is that so?”
“Don’t be happy. I actually feel bad when I say and listen to it.”
Do-yoon Han, who was supporting Garam Yoon, muttered with a subtle look on his face.
“...Isn’t it a bit strange to even think of giving a 6-year-old child the hand he cut off...”
Seo Jang-hwa agreed with him.
“I’m not the only one who thought that.”
“I don’t even understand why Jaeheon Lee is so happy.”
“Then do you know this? “All these bastards here are crazy.”
“Oh my god.”
“If I hadn’t stopped him, Lee Jae-heon is the guy who really would have sacrificed his hand.”
“I’m glad Minhong is sleeping.”
Garam Yoon smiled awkwardly and neither agreed nor denied it. Even though he thought their conversation was right, he didn’t seem to want to criticize the crazy spirit of his beloved men.
No matter what others were talking about, Ha Seong-yoon steadily observed Lee Jae-heon.
“What on earth are these gills?”
“That’s a good question. “I think I am turning into a fish monster, so I would like to cautiously suggest that I should kill it before something serious happens.”
“What’s the use of being careful with what you say? The content is already a mess. “Close your mouth and lower your collar.”
“It would be disgusting....”
“Use it.”
Jaeheon Lee shrugged his shoulders and pulled down his clothes to reveal his neck. Seo Jang-hwa turned his gaze with an expression of amazement at the clearly visible bright red gills, and Han Do-yoon frowned as he thought of Jeong Eun-woo.
“That...”
Han Do-yoon continued, unable to hide his anxious expression.
“...It’s very similar to Jung Eun-woo’s.”
“Ah, has Jung Eun-woo become a monster? “I thought he was eaten by a treasure chest and went missing, but I guess there was a change in the situation.”
“That’s right... I guess there were a lot of changes...”
Han Do-yoon, who had hesitated, summarized the situation simply.
“...It is assumed that Jeong Eun-woo, who became a monster, came out through the ceiling, killed Kim Ki-jeong, broke CEO Yoon Gar-ram’s leg like this, then ran away and knocked out Min-hong and Seo-ah.”
“Once the mutation progresses completely and you become a monster, you seem to lose your wits, don’t you think?”
“Yes, it seemed like he didn’t remember us at all. Or maybe even though I remembered it, I didn’t really feel the need to control myself.”
Han Do-yoon, who said that, let out a deep sigh.
“Anyway, I agree with Lee Jae-heon that it’s a good thing. “I feel like I want to have my entire gill removed.”
At those words, Jaeheon Lee put his hand over the gills.
“Shall I open it?”
“Would you like to open it? Which unlucky ear caught the word ‘surgery’ I just said? “You probably don’t think that excision surgery is such a senseless act of violence that you just have to tear things apart at will.”
“I made a mistake.”
This time, Jeong In-ho intervened as he obediently apologized.
“What is it? “Why are you appearing in such a low manner?”
Lee Jae-heon smiled brightly and answered.
“In the first place, you have to look good to the healer, junior.”
“Ah, in that context....”
“I was disgusted by the noble doctor and my internal organs were twisted, but if I was left without treatment, I would have to take care of my stomach. “Do you know how tiring that is?”
“....”
Jeong In-ho closed his mouth at the unimaginable nonsense, and Ha Seong-yoon’s face completely lost emotion.
“What did you just say?”
“yes?”
“I think I’ve been hearing stories about a strange doctor for a while now.”
“What...”
“I think I’ve heard stories about doctors who ask for eyeballs, doctors who don’t perform surgery on patients because it’s inconvenient, and things worse than animals that imitate doctors. Maybe I heard it wrong? I am?”
“....”
Lee Jae-heon looked back at Jeong In-ho.
‘Help me.’
Jeong In-ho smiled roundly and shook his head.
‘Each person lives separately.’
Lee Jae-heon was convinced and looked at Ha Seong-yoon.
“Did I do something wrong...?”
“Did you commit a sin?”
“Can I kneel and raise my hands?”
“What are you going to do with that little rag body?”
“I was wrong.”
“I don’t need an apology from Jaeheon Lee right now.”
“Perhaps I should do something to relieve my anger....”
“Try to answer what kind of bastard I met.”
“Oh, well... maybe... you won’t be able to see me anymore...”
“I thought you said they were all dead.”
“....”
“Tsk.”
Jaeheon Lee sent a heartfelt thank you to his past self.
‘It was wise.’
It seems that all the past life relationships that came out of his mouth were turned into deceased, and thanks to that, the current Lee Jae-heon received great grace. Even in the midst of my hectic state, a feeling of relief tingled down my spine.
Ha Seong-yoon opened his mouth as if his thoughts had been organized.
“For now, I understand.”
“Ah... what did you understand?”
“Jaeheon Lee, listen carefully.”
“yes.”
“The world sees what happened to you and calls it gaslighting.”
“...?”
Lee Jae-heon looked back at Jeong In-ho.
‘this is right?’
Jeong In-ho nodded, still smiling.
‘That’s right.’
Lee Jae-heon was convinced again and looked at Ha Seong-yoon.
“I was wrong.”
“That’s not what needs to be said right now, is it? What did you understand while exchanging glances with In-ho Jeong?”
“sorry...?”
“Did you say that because you really thought it was the correct answer?”
“...I will correct it...?”
“Oh my god.”
That’s how Ha Seong-yoon achieved the Triple Crown.
It was a crown that no one welcomed.
