Youth Event (3)
There is one advantage to being a guardian of a ten-year-old child.
No one calls me out at night.
Thanks to this, I was able to put off all my work until tomorrow and rest comfortably.
“Hyung, I’m bored.”
“… … .”
I couldn’t rest comfortably. Guardians must take care of their children.
“Is it time to sleep?”
“already?”
Mini Me opened her eyes round and climbed onto the bed.
sometimes… Sometimes not. She could often see her mini-me’s habits from her lab days. If she were a normal child, she would have complained at least once that she didn’t want to sleep, but look at her calmly climbing onto her bed without any such thing.
This lifestyle is completely different from the one I used to scrape out the insides of my small intestine. Requests for snacks or new toys fall into the category of things that the warden has no choice but to listen to despite being irritated, but there are some things that you can’t do anything about, no matter how hard you try. Wake up time, bedtime, medications and injections you need to take every day. Well, things like that.
Fortunately, by the time I was adopted by my father, many of those habits had disappeared. Because I didn’t receive Ark’s care like Mini Me did when I went to the orphanage. In order to survive among kids my age at school, I had to become stronger in a different way than when I was in the lab. I was strong and survived.
It will take that much time for Mini Me to get rid of that habit. If you guide me from the side, it will disappear faster. But then, if I go into a premature rebellious phase for no reason, it gets annoying, so I’m tempted to just leave it alone… .
“brother. good night.”
When I see this guy lying down and greeting me so calmly without even knowing where I am, I feel drained.
When I saw his sleeping face with even breathing, I thought he was a child. Unconditional trust in me. His eyes had no doubt that I was his older brother.
done.
You shouldn’t think about things that don’t have answers.
I adjusted the magic watch. When I lightly rubbed the clock panel, the screen turned on. Since it was created as a watch, it naturally functions as a watch as well.
Even if twenty years pass, watch design is unlikely to change dramatically. Even at this point, it just looks like a clunky watch. Since it’s not an analog watch, it’s almost like a smartwatch.
If there’s anything different, well… That it uses the user’s horsepower as power rather than electricity?
It’s a technology that doesn’t exist in 2021. Semi-permanent horsepower battery. It’s cool technology. Commercialization was scheduled to begin in earnest once the vacation was over. I was trying to make a lot of things. It all flew away.
hmm.
Just in case, I searched Alex Hope’s name on the horsepower watch one more time.
I know the result anyway.
[Search results – 0 results]
I can’t help it. Because there is only domestic data.
No matter how hard you try, the 0 search results do not change.
“… … .”
done. Since Mini Me is sleeping too, let’s do something else.
I grabbed my cell phone that I had left on the table next to the bed. Thanks to Mini Me, it’s easy to work because there are no interruptions.
When I say work, is it too grand? Nothing great. I turn on the currently active dungeon list on my phone and compare it with the past dungeon list stored in the magic clock. The Siren’s Nest that Hong Seok-young and Kim Chae-min attacked last time was not an original attack, but a dungeon that would have been exploded. Since all the children came out of Myeongdong alive, Hong Seok-young must have done more dungeon raiding than he originally did. I feel at ease by checking these things in advance.
It would be much simpler if you had a laptop, but… . You can check your internet history at any time. Since I found out that Lee Mi-seon is a member of the International Talent Association, it would be better to just make up for it with my own labor.
The charger was disconnected from the phone. It is a pitiful necessity for humans living in 2021.
… It was also something that wasn’t in Lee Seung-yeon’s room.
My thoughts return to Seungyeon Lee.
If I were Seungyeon Lee, I would have used a more complicated method to avoid being tracked by my aunt. Since you have enough cash anyway, buy multiple bus tickets to avoid confusion.
However, Seungyeon Lee is not a criminal, but just an ordinary runaway teenager. He didn’t think it was that complicated.
Look. The child who threw away his cell phone to avoid location tracking carefully took the charger with him.
The fact that he made Kang Tae-woo leave his cell phone behind was just a smokescreen. Isn’t there one person here right now who would be willing to listen to Seungyeon Lee’s request?
Seung-yeon Lee’s childhood friend, Soon-jin Sun.

“hey! “Have you seen my socks?”
“Why are you looking for your socks from me? “You didn’t suck, did you?”
“I have a new one?!”
Without even knowing what happened last night, the kids were very energetic from the morning. It’s so loud that it gives me a headache.
Lee Mi-seon is not visible. The same goes for Daseon’s hunters. Fortunately, Ji Yu-geon came out with a blank expression on his face and was making breakfast for the children.
“Good morning, teacher.”
“Can’t you find it?”
Although there was no subject, Ji Yu-geon understood and nodded.
“Thanks to you, teacher, I know roughly how to get my bearings… . Perhaps because the bus terminal is old, the management was a mess. “The CCTV is also in bad condition.”
Ji Yu-geon opened his mouth wide and yawned.
“I said it yesterday, but we… “Because I’m not in charge.”
“why? Alex Hope is good at finding things.”
“That’s a very distinct feature, isn’t it?”
but. That’s right.
It was a face that stood out too much. Ji Yu-geon continued to yawn and said.
“We also put in the data and ran it just in case, but we didn’t know that it would come out as is.”
“Shouldn’t it be easier to find a runaway teenager than to find an unknown crazy hunter?”
“Seungyeon… .”
Ji Yu-geon smiled half-fazed.
“He’s definitely going to be big. The Master says absolutely not, but in my opinion, he looks a lot like the Master. “We still found out what bus they took?”
“yes. But what?”
“I took a bus to Daejeon. So, I checked the CCTV at the time of getting off… .”
“Did you look into it?”
“no.”
“… “No?”

Ji Yu-geon cut carrots with a half-fazed look on his face. Still, a hunter is a hunter, and even though he was cutting with that ugly face, he was doing it well without cutting his fingers. Although the shape of the carrots was not guaranteed.
I saw a carrot that should have been shattered rather than sliced. If it goes into your mouth, it will all be the same.
“I was obviously on the bus, but no one got off. What on earth did I do to make a fuss in the early morning… .”
Ji Yu-geon yawned and sighed at the same time. Mushrooms are also falling apart in the hunter’s hands.
“They said that that route would drop off passengers once before arriving at the terminal.”
“ah.”
“yes. ah.”
Ji Yu-gun put the prepared ingredients into a large frying pan and began to fry them. Well, if you want to prepare a meal for about 10 people, fried rice is probably the easiest.
“I even checked to get off and take a taxi. I came out because I had to prepare food for the kids. hmm… Would you like to give the baby separate food?”
baby… . done.
“no. “My younger brother is still sleeping.”
“In the first place, you need to sleep a lot when your child grows up. Look at me. “Isn’t it like this because I didn’t sleep at that age?”
Even though I say that, I don’t think I’m short.
“I didn’t sleep either, but he grew up well.”
“… IM jealous. “The baby should take after his older brother.”
Since they don’t look alike, their genes will be 100% identical, so I think they’ll probably be as big as me.
I shrugged and helped take out the dishes. Ji Yu-geon put fried rice in a bowl and nodded in greeting.
“I’ll call the kids.”
“Yes, I would appreciate it.”
At this time, the children are all awake and huddled in front of the TV. I don’t know why they’re gathered there without even looking properly because they’re fighting over the remote control anyway.
Some impatient people are snooping around the kitchen, as if they knew from the smell that breakfast was almost ready.
“teacher!”
“Are you welcoming me or food?”
“Uh, both?”
Choi Jin-woo scratched his head and laughed. I snorted and pointed toward the kitchen with the tip of my chin.
“Go and eat something.”
“yes!”
“And Sunsunjin?”
“… yes?”
“for a moment.”
Soon-jin, who was lying on the sofa, got up with a suspicious look on her face.
Only after making sure that all the children had entered the kitchen did I extend my hand to Soon-jin.
“yes?”
“Give it to me.”
“what… yo. this?”
“Your cell phone.”
Sun Sun-jin blinked. She was desperately trying to look as innocent as her name, but it wasn’t as good as her efforts.
“I, that. cell phone… .”
“hmm.”
“Hey, the screen is broken.”
“are you okay. “I just want to check if it exists.”
“Buy, buy, actually, I lost it.”
“okay? It’s a big deal. Should I tell this hunter? “It would be inconvenient without it.”
“Uh, uh… .”
Sun Sun-jin didn’t know what to do and just fiddled with her fingers.
I chuckled.
“Lee Seungyeon took it, right?”
“… that is.”
“I didn’t mean to scold you, but I still needed to know where you went, so I asked to check.”
“S-sorry… .”
“I’m not trying to scold you.”
I don’t expect Alex Hope to attack a third time, but I understand Lee Mi-sun’s concerns.
However, it is unlikely that a child who decided to run away from home will follow along even if you forcefully bring him back. It’s neat to gently coax her to come back. And if you only knew where she went, wouldn’t you be able to watch from a distance?
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell this hunter.”
“yes… .”
“Go and eat.”
“yes… .”
Sun Soon-jin entered the kitchen with a somewhat listless look on her face.
“uh? Teacher Wu, aren’t you eating?”
Ji Yu-geon suddenly stuck his head out and asked.
“When my little brother wakes up, I’m going to eat with him.”
“aha. yes. “I even took care of it for the baby, so you can eat it.”
After giving a cursory greeting to Ji Yu-geon, I took out my cell phone. Let’s see what the naive number is.
What should I send?
‘Call me when you confirm. Before you tell your aunt.’
The response was quick.
I laughed as my phone rang in my hand. They’re diligent about moving around overnight. Or is it still moving?
I can’t believe I’m using the good stamina of an awakened person like this. It’s a waste.
As soon as I picked up the phone, I immediately asked.
“where are you.”
-uh… . Oh, hello?
“What are you saying? “Where?”
-Do I really need to tell you… ?
“Your aunt was really angry.”
-Oh, as expected?
Seungyeon Lee spoke in a calm voice.
-I think so, so I’m going to stay later and then go back.
Listening to that listless voice, Lee Mi-seon’s worries felt pointless.
This is why it is useless to raise a nephew. Of course, I don’t have any nieces or nephews.
“one week.”
-yes?
“I’ll give it a week. “The teacher will stop your aunt for just one week.”
– Okay, thank you?
“instead.”
Seungyeon Lee swallowed his saliva. The sound quality is good.
“Tell me where you are now. Accommodation too. If you move, report it immediately. No, call me every night.”
-… … .
“Something like that happened, so why don’t you get out?” “You know you acted without thinking, right?”
Seungyeon Lee did not answer. I waited without saying anything more, and eventually Seungyeon Lee opened her mouth.
-… … yes.
“I don’t know what you were thinking. But because you ran away from home too hard, I’m giving you a week. “You decide something after a week.”
This time the answer came a little faster.
-yes. thank you sorry.
Unlike usual, I didn’t even have the heart to say anything when I heard the dejected voice.
I sighed.
“What about Kang Tae-woo?”
-I’m next to you now.
“okay. We’re still together… . Where are you now?”
-Now? Yeosu.
“… Yeo su?”
-yes. I’m going to see the sea.
“okay… Seeing the sea… . “You know there’s a sea in front of the pension too, right?”
-no way. Is that sea and this sea the same? It’s much more romantic here.
Romance is frozen to death.
The feeling of pity disappeared and cursing rose to the top of my throat, but it was entirely thanks to my patience that I didn’t let it out.
