00028 Meeting people you know. ————————————————– ———————-=
“I saw a woman when I came here. However, we are not sure that the woman we saw was the kidnapped person as they said. ”
It was intended to cause as little shock as possible. However, the woman’s eyes still held confidence. She quickly nodded her head and responded to my words.
“are you okay. Right now, I feel like grasping at straws. “I don’t know if it’s long straight hair, but if it’s a yellow dress, it’s almost certain.”
“Even if it’s a yellow dress… . “It was torn into pieces so I could only check part of it.”
“what… . “What?”
The woman momentarily stuttered at my words. Woo Jung-min, Seon Yu-un, and Cheon Seung-hyeon were already clenching their hands, as if they were anticipating what was going to happen next. But her eyes still couldn’t give up hope. Eventually she opened her mouth in a trembling voice, a tone that conveyed her hope that it wasn’t her.
“Why, why were your clothes torn?”
“When we found her, she was lying leaning against a tree. And when I approached and checked… . “She was already dead.”
“Won Hye-soo… !”
As soon as I finished speaking, the woman named Won Hye-su had a blank expression on her face and staggered to the ground. Cheon Seung-hyeon, who was next to her, quickly caught her, but her legs must have already completely relaxed. I felt sorry for the woman called Won Hye-soo because I knew better than anyone else the pain of losing her precious person.
For a while, there was silence.
“How did Hyeyeon die?”
However, Woo Jung-min asked me in a calm voice whether I had already accepted the reality. However, the complex tone of the voice must be quite unsettling. I was silent for a moment. He opened his mouth as if he was still waiting for my answer.
“are you okay. I roughly expected it. “Just tell it like it is.”
“… There was blood around the corner of his mouth. He probably committed suicide by biting his tongue.”
“no. for a moment. That can’t be possible. There’s no way that kid would commit suicide.”
“When we found him, he was almost naked. and… . “There was fluid coming out of the vag!na that was believed to belong to that monkey monster.”
The moment I finished speaking, the atmosphere became cold. To that extent, Woo Jung-min was truly angry. There was death in his eyes and his fists were clenched, making it look like he was going to explode at any moment. Seon Yu-woon, who was quietly listening from the side, also had bloodshot eyes, so I was able to vividly convey the sense of loss and anger they were feeling.
It was then. I heard the scream of Won Hye-soo, who must have heard me as she stared blankly into space with open eyes.
“under… . haha… . under… . Haaaaaaa!”
“Hyesu! Wake!”
“Aaaah! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
The momentum was so fierce that even Cheon Seung-hyeon, who had shown a relatively calm demeanor, took a step back. Won Hye-su seemed to be unable to overcome her sense of loss and began to scream, tearing up the floor with both hands.
“no! Hyeyeon! Hyeyeon can’t have died! It is a lie! lie! Hyeyeonaaaaaaaaaa!”
“Won Hye-soo! Wake! We lost Jintae too. I do not remember? “At that time, I told you not to be swayed by emotions and to look at reality calmly, but what if you are like this now?”
“shut up! Hyeyeon! “Hye-yeon!”
Won Hye-soo, who was looking around like a crazy bitch, made eye contact with me. The corner of her mouth twisted in anger, and she immediately got up from her seat and ran towards me. Although Seon Yu-woon and Cheon Seung-hyeon were startled and quickly grabbed both of her arms, she continued to yell at me.
“lie! Do not lie! There’s no way he’s dead! It’s a lie, right? yes? huh? It’s a lie, I tell you… ! “I’m telling you to say it!”
“Hyesu… . Let’s go and check it out first. huh? “Calm down.”
Cheon Seung-hyeon continued to comfort her, but Won Hye-soo was already half-fazed, so she couldn’t even hear her. I stared at her softly and then spoke to her in her quiet voice.
“The body will appear if you follow the road straight behind here for about 30 minutes. There aren’t many trees around there. “I’m sorry about what happened to your younger brother.”
“You bastard! You killed Hyeyeon! She died? Do not lie! no. At that time, she cowardly ran away while seeing Hyeyeon being punished, right? You could have saved her, but she escaped, right? “You cowardly bastard!”
“what? This crazy bitch… . brother?”
Lee Yu-jeong was about to leave, as if she felt sorry for her but couldn’t stand my swearing. I held her shoulder and quietly shook her head. Lee Yu-jeong looked dissatisfied, but she must have seen my stern face and quietly retreated. At that time, Woo Jung-min, who was quietly looking at the sky, soon raised his right hand high with a calm face.
match!
Won Hye-soo’s face, who had been cursing me as a coward, momentarily turned to the side. Her eyes were fixed on Woo Jung-min’s hand as she looked to the side, as if she couldn’t believe it, with her scrunched up face. Woo Jung-min looked down at Won Hye-soo with a face full of disappointment.
“stop. Hyesoo Won. “It’s disgusting to see more.”
“What, what?”
“Reality… . Huh, no. No matter what I say to you now, I don’t think you’ll listen. “It’s strict, but don’t vent your anger and accept reality.”
“under… . okay. I don’t need it all. This is not their younger brother. Yeah~. I guess so. To you, we may have only met for 4 days, but for me, I, I! I’m different. We’ve been living together for over 20 years. But what? Do you accept reality?”
Seon Yu-un looked at Won Hye-su, who spoke in a poisonous voice, with sad eyes. And he ended up ignoring her gaze. After seeing that he had turned her head, Won Hye-su soon began to sob again. All kinds of negative emotions such as disappointment, frustration, anxiety, and confusion were swirling around her to the extent that even a third party would think she was crazy.
“Won Hye-soo, are you crazy? I’m not the one who threw the dagger, but you shouldn’t be like this! Let’s calm down and get our bearings first. “Why on earth are you like this?”
“okay. I’m crazy. I’d rather go crazy. So let go of this. “Stop saying no!”
The hysterics become more and more severe. Woo Jung-min took a deep sigh and opened his mouth in a heavy voice.
“I don’t think you’re crazy. We also lost our minds here. So, I also know how it feels to lose the younger brother you were so close with and loved. Probably, if anyone had seen how you and your younger brother were doing even for 4 days, they would sympathize with your feelings and sympathize with you. and… . “There is still no guarantee that that person is Won Hye-yeon.”
“Do not lie. okay! They could be lying now. Is it because I only saw part of the clothes in the first place? I want to go now. I’m going. Probably, no, it’s definitely not Hyeyeon. “It can’t be.”
It is said that humans are animals of self-justification. Won Hye-soo, who was so confident in the beginning, had already changed her attitude 180 degrees. She pleads, then gets frustrated, then gets angry, then gets hopeful again. She is literally going crazy. She was unable to accept her death and was only interpreting it in a hopeful light. It wasn’t the first time she saw such people, but she couldn’t help but feel mixed feelings.
“stop. “You also saw Hyeyeon being kidnapped by monkey monsters.”
“If you don’t go, I’ll go alone. Stop this now. I have to go. “I’m going now.”
“… Jeong Min-ah. Let’s go first. Go check it out… There’s a body… .”
Cheon Seung-hyun, who spoke carefully, must have felt that Won Hye-su’s eyes became sharper, so he hurriedly shut his mouth. When Cheon Seung-hyun and Seon Yu-un released her arms, she glared at me and started running in the direction I pointed. They just looked at each other awkwardly and followed her at a fast pace. However, Woo Jung-min still remained in his seat.
“You got me involved in something pointless. sorry. “I only saw each other for four days, but Hye-su and Hye-yeon cared for each other that much.”
Anhyeon nodded with an empathetic expression. He seemed anxious as he held Ansol tightly with his right arm. Woo Jung-min, who was looking at the two with a bitter expression, soon turned his gaze to me and spoke in a serious voice.
“Anyway, thank you for taking revenge on me. I relieved my hands. however… . “I’m sure what you said wasn’t a lie, right?”
“what?”
After seeing Lee Yu-jeong, who instantly got upset, Woo Jung-min turned his attention to Kim Han-byeol and An Sol. Then he smiled and opened his mouth.
“but… . They don’t look like those kids. Excuse me. “I guess I should go too.”
“I’m sorry about what he did. Unfortunately, we are busy too. “Then we will leave.”
“Oh, wait a minute. There’s a crossbow. “Come here for a moment.”
A voice suddenly called me, so I glanced at him and slowly walked in front of him. Eventually, he looked at the group in front of him and spoke in a low voice so that only I could hear.
“It’s okay to call it repayment, but… . Let me give you one piece of information. You guys are heading to the central warp gate right now, right? “Don’t answer, just nod your head slightly.”
I nodded right away, and soon Woo Jung-min whispered something in my ear in a soft voice.
