Side Story Episode 32. Burning (7)
Because it was early in the morning, there were hardly any people walking around Homiru. Thanks to this, the transfer was carried out fairly quietly and quickly.
“Hey, kid.”
Clean first floor.
Jeon-oh growled at Lee Cheon-sang.
“It would be difficult to call us so quickly just because the head of the family is watching over us.”
“I understand.”
“I don’t think you know? “How will people view us if they find out that the Penal Court was moved only because of something that happened in Gaiden?”
“… … .”
“Behave well.”
“I understand.”
“… … damn.”
I wanted to pour out more curses, but unfortunately, I had to pay attention to this point.
Jeon Oh left Homiru nervously. When he was escorting the Great Lord of the Gwangma, he never imagined that he would be doing something like this.
Silence returned to Homiru.
Lee Cheon-sang moved the broken chair to one side and cleaned up the table.
Juyeongyo, who had been waiting outside the door, came inside.
“hey.”
“Say it.”
“you… … “Have you been friends with the head of the criminal court?”
“There is no personal relationship.”
Juyeongyo’s eyes wavered.
‘What on earth is it?’
The Criminal Justice Party was an organization with great influence even during the civil war.
Of course, the power that the leader had outside of official duties was also enormous. At least in Gaiden, there are probably ten people who can talk to someone outside of their official duties even once.
‘Did you come to Yasha Headquarters after being in contact with the head of the criminal code? why?’
If he had connections outside of official duties, he would have been able to go to Yashahoryeongbu. Because it is clear that the Yachahoryeongbu will serve as a bridge for power within the school.
Juyeongyo’s eyes deepened.
‘So, did you say that it was incorrect, that you were the victim or the perpetrator?’
Considering that he was from the Penal Court, I understood what he said. He was told that no matter how rotten the criminal law party was, you would have to study quite a lot of criminal law to get into it.
Juyeon-gyo, who was looking at Lee Cheon-sang, dragged the tables and chairs that had been pushed away and cleaned them up.
Grumble. Drurr.
There was a strange rhythm to the sound of tables and chairs being dragged.
Juyeongyo asked.
“Why did you do that?”
“what.”
“With your personality, I don’t think there was any reason to come forward.”
Lee Cheon-sang said bluntly.
“Jumsoi was injured.”
What kind of alumni book answer is this?
Juyeongyo, who was frowning, soon realized that Jeomsoi was an ordinary person who had not even learned a single martial art.
‘Are you saying they came forward because a civilian was injured?’
Of course, even if you were a demon, or rather, you weren’t allowed to touch civilians since you were a demon. This place was even inside the Shingyo Aejeon Hall. If you cause harm to the people who risked their lives to do business, who would think of coming here to do business?
‘I must have been confident because I had the head of the criminal law on my back… … .’
Still, something was unclear.
People tend to attach various meanings to other people’s actions that they do not understand. Lee Cheon-sang was like that, and now Juyeon-gyo was like that too.
Juyeongyo sighed and said.
“It seems like you just handed over my work and solved it.”
“It’s none of your business.”
“huh?”
“It’s everyone’s job.”
Joon-gyo looked at Lee Cheon-sang with surprised eyes.
Lee Cheon-sang continued to organize with a blunt expression.
‘It’s everyone’s business?’
It was something very unfamiliar, yet strangely shocking.
Lee Cheon-sang didn’t seem to have any doubts about what he said. There was no other intention to be found in those words.
After cleaning up, Lee Cheon-sang opened the kitchen door.
“Huh!”
Suksu was surprised and hugged Jeomsoi.
“It’s over. “Take him to the dressing room.”
“Yes, yes!”
Fortunately, Jeomsoy’s expression wasn’t that bad. The pain was still there, but the bones were roughly aligned, and Lee Cheon-sang’s inner energy was seeping in and treating the injured area.
So the two people left Homiru.
Juyeongyo said.
“You are such a strange person.”
“know.”
“Why did you break Punggok Danju’s arms and legs? “If you were good at it, you could have paralyzed it with point blood.”
“I have never formally learned the point-and-point method.”

Juyeongyo opened his mouth wide.
“… … Even if you’ve never studied it formally, you have a lot of skills, right? “Don’t you know roughly which acupuncture points do what?”
“It is not good to do something unfamiliar in an emergency situation.”
It was such an obvious statement that I was immediately convinced.
Juyeongyo said with a grin.
“It looks like you’ve broken other people’s limbs quite a lot.”
It was true. It was difficult to count the number of enemies whose bones were shattered during his time in the fighting arena.
Of course, Lee Cheon-sang didn’t bother to explain.
“Still, if it were your personality, I think you could have verbally warned the other person.”
“I don’t talk much.”
“I know that. But you’re not the type of person to start swinging with your fists, are you? “Does it look that way to me?”
“There are times when words make sense and times when they don’t.”
“You decided it was the latter, so you rushed in without hesitation?”
“Time was running out.”
“What time? “Jumsoy?”
“As time passes, it becomes known everywhere that someone from the penal court has arrived.”
“Will it still be known now? It may take a while, though.”
“Still, it’s better to avoid other people’s eyes as much as possible.”
“why?”
“There are people who don’t want to cause trouble.”
It meant none other than Doheon.
Juyeongyo’s eyes became strange.
“Anyway, you made the most reasonable choice from your point of view?”
“From my perspective, yes.”
“You did well, really.”
The two people walked in silence again.
This time too, it was Juyeon-gyo who spoke first.
“You and I are different.”
“… … .”
“I don’t know why you came to Yasha Headquarters. “If we had that much power, we could have entered into a civil war.”
“… … .”
“Well, I guess each person has their own circumstances.”
“… … .”
“Did you hear what that guy said earlier? “I was almost kicked out of Hwanheewon.”
“heard.”
Juyeongyo sighed.
“Honestly, I was angry. To Hwanheewon and to myself.”
“… … .”
“I came here because I was kicked out, but it just so happened that I had a good argument to make. Like you said, you weren’t really angry at that idiot. “I only take my anger out on people who are worth getting angry at.”
“… … .”
“I just needed someone to vent to. I wanted to see someone weaker and meaner than me get ruined. I don’t know if that will relieve my anger, but… … “I just wanted to do that.”
Lee Cheon-sang still said nothing.
And Juyeongyo actually felt comfortable because he didn’t say anything. If I had continued the conversation by answering each question individually, I would have been a little miserable.
Juyeongyo laughed bitterly.
“On the contrary, I also had feelings that I didn’t want to admit. “He didn’t like Hwanhee Won, but he still had pride in belonging to one of the leading organizations in Protestantism.”
“… … .”
“That’s why I didn’t take off my Hwanheewon uniform. My temperament made me want to tear it to shreds, but I couldn’t do that again. “For me, it was like a pride and a token of love and hate.”
It was a difficult thought for Lee Cheon-sang to understand.
Juyeongyo closed his eyes.
“You are right. That shouldn’t have happened. “I don’t know if I’m a wolf, but if I thought about the people who would suffer because of this guy who wasn’t as big as a rabbit, I should have ignored him or dragged him out.”
“… … .”
“That’s right. Everything is as you said. “To the point where it’s obnoxious.”
Juyeongyo opened his eyes again and said with a chuckle.
“Still, you’re contradicting yourself. Thinking of using power to catch someone? Is this right? Isn’t it true that people who are drunk on power can be caught with power, a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, or something like that?”
Lee Cheon-sang raised his finger.
“first.”
“huh?”
“There were no civilians.”
“… … .”
“second. “If it had been left as is, you, the victim, would have been at risk of being unfairly injured.”
“What are you doing?”
“The last third.”
“… … .”
“We are members of the same unit.”
Juyeongyo’s eyes shook as if there had been an earthquake.
Lee Cheon-sang said.
“I don’t know much about relationships between people. “I know it in my head, but I don’t really feel it, so I often can’t make judgments about how to treat others.”
“… … .”
“Yang Geon said. “If you are a member of the same unit, you are a friend, and if you are truly a friend, you should act like it is your own business.”
“… … .”
“I think this is a remark close to the nonsense of a drunkard. Whether you are a unit member or a friend, without personal connection, you are just strangers. “That’s how I learned.”
“It’s not wrong.”
“Still, I’m going to try my best.”
“what?”
“I approach first.”
“… … !”
“I have always been passive. I know what people are feeling, but I can’t empathize with them. So I didn’t reach out or talk to him first. “Because there is no reason.”
“… … .”
“However, in order to learn about the world, I need to learn about people, and to learn about people, I also need to change.”
A beautiful smile appeared on Juyeongyo’s face.
“Is that why you were so fired up?”
“fire?”
“They burned it brilliantly? “The way he overpowered the crowd was amazing.”
Lee Cheon-sang tilted his head.
“Have I shown my will to live?”
“enough.”
“Then I’m changing too.”
Of course it was a lie. Juyeon-gyo could not find a single ounce of life in Lee Cheon-sang.
That’s why all the demons were scared. They couldn’t help but be afraid of the person who crushed their superior as indifferently as if they were catching a fly.
However, Joon-gyo was able to capture the moment when Lee Cheon-sang changed.
The eyes that twitched when looking at Jeomsoi’s broken leg.
I was able to see a truly human red emotion that slowly raised its head in the colorless and transparent pupil.
“From now on, I will call you a bundle of contradictions.”
“Do whatever you feel like.”
“Are you admitting it? “That you yourself were not right?”
“I admit it.”
“… … “If you say that, I have nothing to say.”
“is it.”
“If you say something is correct or incorrect in front of others, you will be hit hard. “You could be humiliated.”
“do not care.”
“You must be young.”
Before they knew it, the Yasha headquarters appeared in front of them.
“You don’t regret it, right? “Behaved incorrectly.”
“I don’t do it.”
Joon-kyo smiled and surpassed Cheon-sang Lee.
“If we have time, let’s have dinner together later.”
“hate.”
* * *
“Did something like that happen?”
“hmm.”
Gongmuoe scratched his head.
“But there weren’t many eyes to see. “It will spread quietly, but it will cool down quickly so it will be okay.”
Doheon bowed his head.
“I’m sorry for bothering you for no reason.”
“Uh huh, it’s not for you to bow your head. And, of course, he didn’t do it with malicious intent, right?”
Gongmuoe burst out laughing.
“Besides, I was looking for performance to report to the higher-ups. “Even if you have connections, if you don’t produce clear results, this position will be in jeopardy.”
“Is that so.”
“That guy named Punggok Danju took in a lot of kickbacks. “There are even seven buildings built in other people’s names in the suburbs.”
“You are too greedy.”
“That’s right. You pile up so much money and go to hell in one fell swoop. Tsk, they say a person’s life is like a wave, and I feel a little sorry for him.”
“Anyway, thank you for your hard work.”
When Doheon bowed his head again, Gongmuoe waved his hand.
“Hey man, we’re not even strangers, so why do you keep doing this? “I will always look after you and your people, so don’t feel burdened.”
“I’m just grateful.”
“Hehe, what is gratitude?”
Gongmuoe stood up from his seat.
“I caught a big fish, so I can play around for a while. “Do you have time?”
“of course.”
“If it’s okay, let’s have a drink. I’m thinking of going to Jamiru today, how about it? Are you fine?”
“I heard that Jamiru’s alcohol tastes excellent. “I’m buying alcohol today.”
“Hehehe! Now you know the fun of coming and going. Great! “I’ll make your suitcase slimmer today.”
Gongmuoe chuckled and walked ahead.
Doheon, who was looking at his back with a smile, soon sighed.
‘You guy, wasn’t it too bloody from the beginning?’
