Episode 021
I kept my mouth shut.
My face felt a little hot.
I would like to protest that if I had been in a situation where I could speak, I would have told them the plan in advance.
“Eup, eup, eup.”
The man underneath looked like he didn’t know what I was talking about.
so do i.
I don’t know what I’m talking about, pervert.
– Follow me. You’d better be quiet.
“article. dragon. Hee ha. doing. good. second. going to be.”
Seo Ji-han shook his head.
Oh what!
This is the best!
I should have had something to say like this in my entire life!
– Place your finger here and press lightly.
He pointed with his hand between the ribs on the man’s back.
I do as I’m told, but I don’t know what I want to do.
– Follow me. If your lungs are pierced, you won’t be able to scream.
Wait.
Do I have to drill that? With my fingers? By stabbing here?
hey? There was no such thing as this, right?
I don’t think I can do that.
Is there a more moderate way?
When I briefly shook my head and refused, Seo Ji-han frowned and urged me on.
– Go ahead and do it.
In the end, I cried and stuck my finger between the man’s ribs.
The man underneath was struggling, jumping around like a fish that had just been caught.
“lung. cast. Drilled. eww. Cotton cow. lee. cast. pond. “I’m going to scream.”
– What’s wrong with that tone of voice? What happened? Maybe it’s because of his strange way of speaking, but he also seems to think you’re crazy, so keep going.
what? Who says this pervert is crazy!
I was so angry that I pressed his body, and the man let out a loud noise.
– Then I will die. Press gently. Now say the next line. Do you want to be quiet? Or should I do it?
“Would you like to be quiet? Or should I do it?”
– What just happened? It was very natural.
thank you. There was a bit of sincerity mixed in.
Anyway, the man shook his head desperately.
Does that mean be quiet? You’re not shaking your head to mean you won’t be quiet, are you?
– Let go slowly, take off the mask, and grab the neck.
Even when I removed the hand covering his mouth, the man did not make a sound.
Instead, he just looked at me with eyes filled with fear.
As Seo Ji-han instructed, he removed the mask and grabbed his neck, but due to the size of his hands, it looked like he was holding a wool band.
– Hmm, the picture is a little different from what I thought, but I guess it’s okay. I tried to grab him by the neck and tell him to lift me up, but that would have ripped his neck off. If you have to, tear it down.
Put your neck on it? Wouldn’t that be too terrible?
no. It’s so terrible. What are you trying to make me do?
I wanted the man to be as quiet as possible.
I meant it.
I don’t want to rip off your neck.
Please listen carefully.
I am a person who has only ever plucked sweet potato stems in my life.
– Again the line. Who sent it?
“who. Let’s go. Paid it. uh.”
– The acting got worse.
No matter what Seo Ji-han said, I ignored it and focused on the man in front of me.
What am I to learn?
This is good enough.
“No one sent the message. It’s true. “I was just a passerby…”
He stuttered, breaking into a cold sweat.
I could feel his back getting sweaty enough to spread to me, who was sitting on top of him.
“A passerby?”
Seo Ji-han clearly saw it, and I also saw this kid pushing the paper that was stuck in the window. Where did he get away with it? Even if he
had called the police, he would have given up various reasons and escaped, right?
Thinking like that, it’s hard to hold back my anger.
– Tell me . . Can you risk your life on those words? Put some strength on the hand holding your neck and be careful so you don’t break your neck bone.
“Can you risk your life on those words?”
I squeezed the windpipe in his neck as if it were going to rip it out, and the man made a choking sound.
After doing that for a while, the man suddenly confessed his crime with tears streaming down his face.
So easily?
“I’m sorry. I didn’t recognize the person. Please. Please just take a look. I won’t do it again.”
– I don’t believe it.
“I don’t believe it.”
The man was so white that he could tell even in the dark.
“Then how can I…”
– If you are serious, you should show your sincerity.
“jin. center. this. noodle. castle. of. graph. city. cast. sun. “Hey.”
“Oh, of course I will. “A sign of sincerity, here’s your wallet…”
The man was grabbed by the neck, fumbling through his clothes with his hands and pulling out his wallet. I
really hated seeing the man quickly regaining his composure as if asking if money was what he wanted. That’s what
Seo Ji-han told him to do . I was about to ignore it and beat it up, but the following instructions came down.
– Put your hand on one of your eyes and say. Let’s pick one.
Hey, wait a minute.
If you pull this one too, I’ll pick it too, right?
I want to make a tearful face, but I can’t even do that because I have to control my facial expression.
Seo Ji-han gestures with his chin. He urged.
– Hurry up and say it.
Oh, I really hate it.
“Let’s pick one.”
“Hike hee hee hee!”
As soon as I heard those words, something felt warm and I fell to the floor. The
man had urinated on me.
Ouch! It’s dirty!
I didn’t listen to Seo Ji-han’s words and slapped the man on the floor. I thought
what I should do if I run away, but the man stopped me. Even without my hand touching him, he was trembling on the spot without being able to move.
“Please save me. I saw the wrong person. Please save me. Please, sir, please save me just once. I won’t forget your grace.”
Without even looking at the man who was begging, Seo Ji-han pointed to the wallet.
I threw the man, and the wallet that had been thrown away was rolling around.
– Take your wallet.
I picked up the man’s wallet on the floor.
When I opened it, I saw a business card . And it contained a resident registration card and bills.
What is it? He works for a fairly wealthy conglomerate.
– Tell him. Tell him. I will find
him. Who is he and who should I go to?
I half gave up on these questions and said, I’m
slowly getting used to this.
“Tell that guy. I’ll come find him.”
– I only accept this today.
“I accept only this today.”
Ah, if you have a wallet, you know your identity anyway, so you can’t act carelessly.
Well, this is also a good idea. I
nodded in my head, but what Seo Ji-han asked me to receive was not a wallet.
– I grabbed my wrist and twisted it.
“Wrist…”
Brief line It wasn’t. yes? really? Am I twisting it?
– Go ahead and do it. not a big deal.
No, it’s really special.
It’s really something special!
Seo Ji-han eventually sighed as he continued to refuse, as if he couldn’t do this.
– Then give him a few hits and send him on his way.
I want to do that too, but I don’t want to put my hands on a man who is wet with urine.
In the end, all I did was kick a few punches out of anger.
To be honest, I didn’t want to hit him because he was constantly shaking and messy, but I thought I would regret it later if I just let him go.
– go away.
“go away.”
When I gave permission, the man started crawling and staggering into the dark alley.
I have my wallet in my hand, so I can use it to report it to the police.
However, Seo Ji-han proposed a slightly different solution.
– Keep that business card. Because there is a hunter who specializes in Eun-won relationships. If you get a chance later, it would be a good idea to ask a witch doctor to put a curse on you.
Seo Ji-han smiled and took the lead as if asking to go home.
I looked at the wallet back and forth with him and eventually put it in my inventory.
And I asked about something I was curious about earlier.
“But who should I go to?”
– no. If you just say that, they’ll think you’re a dangerous person to approach and won’t come back.
aha. also.
I thought it was some kind of bluff, but I wondered if it was someone Seo Ji-han knew.
“Hmm.”
– Blackmail and threats are always good communication skills.
“I don’t think it’s a conversation skill…”
Despite my objections, Seo Ji-han just shrugged his shoulders.
And just as Seo Ji-han said, that pervert never came to this house again. He has been
blackmailing others for many years, but he has been fighting for a long time. The method really worked.
And just a little bit, I felt like I had seen the truth in the rumors about Seo Ji-han.
* * *
“This is the first time I’ve beaten someone that much.”
Seo Ji-han, who was watching TV, glanced at me with a bored expression. It’s
been a few days since the night-time pervert punishment incident, but I still think about that day often.
Even when I came into the room that day, I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep for a long time. .
To be honest, I still feel like I still have the feeling of kicking the man in my foot.
– How long am I going to keep ruminating on this?
When Seo Ji-han didn’t respond, he shook his head and turned his attention to the news he was watching.
Until he turned on the TV. He would stare at me while I was cleaning, folding laundry, or tidying up my room.
He would stare at me
while I was sleeping. It might only be for a moment, but he would stare at me like that for days on end, so it got really annoying.
In the end, I asked him to stop looking at me, and he answered confidently . He’s back.
– There’s nothing to do.
That’s true.
As a ghost, will he play games on his phone or read a book?
But he can’t look at the scrubber in the sink all day or count the patterns on the wallpaper.
I’m bored just thinking about it.
It’s too late . I turned on the TV, and he finally stopped staring at me. He
should have been like this a long time ago.
The TV he was watching was still broadcasting about the explosion that created the dungeon that I was involved in.
Perhaps because the damage was so great, newspapers and TV were talking about it every day. I did.
Actually, there is no such thing as a dungeon creation explosion that causes less damage.
Still, the dungeon creation explosion that occurred this time caused less damage because it disappeared shortly after the dungeon was created and the space sucked into the dungeon was quickly recovered. The scope of the explosion was small
. It was the area where our company was located and 8 nearby buildings.
The entire area was swallowed up in the dungeon, but came back when the dungeon disappeared. Thanks to this, an explosion caused by a broken gas pipe in the middle, a building that was damaged by an attack inside the dungeon, and people nearby were missing. It was quite a mess.
Still, once such a dungeon creation explosion occurred, it was common for the entire area to evaporate, so even though the sacrifices were great, the news was highlighting the people who returned alive and creating an atmosphere of hope. What we are seeing now are the four people
. It was a discussion-type news show.
It is a form of conveying various opinions by giving and receiving words.
