Chapter 536

Episode 536

“I am against it.”

Choi Min-hong’s bold remarks.

“…uh?”

Jaeheon Lee was visibly embarrassed.

The other survivors were also taken aback by the unexpected opponent, but Park Da-young was the first to come to her senses and quickly struck out.

“Yes, Minhong is against it. “I don’t like Minhong, man.”

“No….”

“Wow, you’re telling me you won’t listen to a child’s opinion? Why are you so narrow-minded? That’s absolutely not fair. “It’s not reasonable, and it’s not efficient…” As

Lee Jae-heon continued to repeat the words he usually used, Jae-heon Lee nodded with difficulty.

“…I understand what you mean. Of course, you can’t not listen to opinions just because you’re a child. That’s true, that’s true, but….”

When Lee Jae-heon felt like his words were getting longer, Jeong In-ho intervened.

“Then we should listen to Minhong’s story. Isn’t that right, Manager?”

“But still…”

“We’re not hoping for something very big.”

Jeong In-ho, who had worked hard to regain his composure, continued speaking.

“I’m just… I’m just asking for some time. Da-hoon is not going to die right away, and there is still some time left before the water fills the box. “It seems like Da-hoon, the person involved, doesn’t agree with this method, so let’s think about a different path in the meantime.”

“Someone has to die eventually.”

“Maybe not. So, there is a hypothesis that we came up with earlier… that is…”

When Jeong In-ho’s words seemed to be confused, Seo Jang-hwa, who was observing the situation, calmly continued.

“Dojo map. I heard that there is a stamp map handed out by the staff at this Dreamcatcher Aquarium. “We hypothesized that there might be a hint about the wetsuit in there.”

“…I exchanged my map for prizes at the souvenir shop.”

Lee Jae-heon, who said that, opened his mouth again with an expression of unwillingness.

“But perhaps… it seems that Choi Min-Hong also had guidance.”

“That’s what we’re saying. “Fuck, we’re finally talking.”

Seo Jang-hwa let out a very small sigh of relief.

No matter how much Lee Jae-heon was acting like a dog, at least he didn’t seem to be making up stories that didn’t exist or making nonsense.

Jaeheon Lee was willing to tolerate any conversation or action that was truly necessary. Even though the atmosphere seemed to have ended as if the story was over, when Choi Min-hong expressed an opposing opinion, the evidence was that although he was embarrassed, he did not ignore it.

“We thought there might be hints of each theme zone on that stamp map, right? It seemed like the theme zone that was stamped would have hints about that area displayed on the map or something like that. “I may have sold the map somewhere, but Minhong still has the map.”

“We came to check it out. “It was to check if the manager was okay, but the biggest purpose was to find a hint about the wetsuit.”

Park Da-young desperately nodded at Jeong In-ho’s words following Seo Jang-hwa.

“So, just stay a little longer. It’s not that we won’t make a choice until the end… We all know that if we can’t get a wetsuit, Da-hoon can’t get out either. “At that time, I will have to choose who will die between you and Da-hoon… but that is what happened then.”

Park Da-young’s voice was trembling a little.

“You can choose that at that time. There are still options left to try. I’ll look for a wetsuit a little more. Then I can find the key and save Da-hoon… won’t that work?”

“…I understand what you mean.”

“…really….”

“Yes, really.”

Surprisingly, Lee Jae-heon accepted their words obediently.

“It’s a bit unfortunate that we can’t take the faster route, but I think your opinions are also valid. “If it is possible to find a wetsuit and save Da-hoon Park, it is much more efficient in terms of manpower because it will save both me and student Da-hoon Park.”

“….”

“It is enough for me to know that you are not ignoring the method we have found. “I wouldn’t ruin everything by being indecisive and hesitating and not using a good method even though there is one.”

After saying that, Lee Jae-heon bent down and looked at Choi Min-hong.

“So you’re our friend Minhong Choi?”

“huh?”

“Yes, not yes.”

“yes.”

“What is Choi Min-hong’s opposing opinion? “Can you explain?”

Choi Minhong blinked widely at the gentle question.

The child was holding the hand of his friend who was crying. Choi Min-hong said after seeing Jang Seo-ah sobbing without making a sound.

“no, I do not want.”

“no?”

“He doesn’t like it either.”

“….”

“Boy and I don’t want you to die.”

Minhong Choi asked.

“Why does he have to die?”

Jaeheon Lee couldn’t answer.

* * *

Since Song In-myeong was unable to properly stop the crazy Lee Jae-heon, the survivors had to change their team composition once again. At the very least, I thought it would be unacceptable for Lee Jae-heon and Song In-myeong to be left alone at the concert hall.

In-ho Jeong expressed his opinion.

“This time, I will stay with you, Manager.”

“Oh yeah?”

“More than anything, I don’t want to move with that person.”

Jeong In-ho earnestly wished to be physically separated from his uncle Jeong Eun-woo, and Park Da-young and Seo Jang-hwa respected In-ho Jeong’s opinion.

“Honestly, I also didn’t like being suffocated among you.”

“admit.”

So, Jae-heon Lee, In-ho Jeong, and In-myeong Song remained at the concert hall, and the wetsuit team was made up of the remaining survivors. Song In-myeong had to remain at the concert hall due to the opinion that he had shed too much blood and could attract a monster.

And Seo Jang-hwa also had no desire to work together with Song In-myeong to find the wetsuit.

“Screw it, you trash.”

“Yes, gorilla.”

“Did it turn?”

Seo Jang-hwa left the concert hall coolly after blowing his nose once.

“….”

“Why?”

“Uh…”

“Don’t be friends with that bastard?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It was accurate.”

“I know.”

Seo Jang-hwa snorted at Park Da-young’s shocked reaction.

“And if we become friends, what the fuck?”

“yes yes?”

“Dayoung, now you won’t care whether that bastard dies or not.”

Seo Jang-hwa said as he adjusted the iron rod he had taken from Jeong In-ho.

“And even though it’s such a bullshit thing, I still think of that piece of trash, Song In-myeong, as my friend. Unless I have lost all my memories like that guy, Lee Jae-heon, I spent time with Song In-myeong, so it’s only natural that I consider that guy friendly. “How can I do that?”

“Uh….”

“We were pretty good friends, and it was me who was betrayed, not Song In-myeong. But why should I, who didn’t do anything wrong, have a hard time saying things like, ‘I should never think of Song In-myeong as a friend’, or ‘But she was so close to me that it’s hard to keep my distance…’? “Is that really true?”

“Oh…”

“The bastard is Song In-myeong, not me, and I have the right to demand anything from that bastard. “It’s annoying that I’m wasting my precious emotions just to keep my distance from that bastard.”

After saying that, Seo Jang-hwa looked back at Park Da-young.

“I’m definitely not saying anything to you. “It’s just that my way of speaking is a bit harsh.”

“Oh, of course.”

“You damn cute… I will protect you.”

Jeong Eun-woo watched the warm alliance between the two women with a kind face.

“I’m glad you two get along well.”

“Yeah, not you. “You’re like a child neglecter.”

“At that time, Inho had graduated, so I don’t think he could be considered a child.”

“What can I say, everyone is a child even when they are just starting out in society?”

Therefore, Seo Jang-hwa also emphasized to Jeong Eun-woo that he was a ‘child’ who needed to be protected.

“understand.”

Jeong Eun-woo nodded, opened the map given to him by Choi Min-hong, and said.

“I checked and there was nothing specifically marked as a wetsuit.”

“You’re not changing your mind now, are you?”

“I just thought I needed to move faster to save Da-hoon Park. If it is too late, Director Lee Jae-heon will probably go to his death, and in that case, the other survivors will be greatly disappointed…” “

So, what about the map?”

“Thank you for your quick understanding and cooperation.”

Jeong Eun-woo, who expressed his gratitude to Seo Jang-hwa, continued.

“I couldn’t find anything marked as a wetsuit, but I did see one thing that bothered me a bit.”

“What concerns you?”

“Do you see the small fish drawn here?”

“…Speaking of fish….”

Seo Jang-hwa looked at the spot that Jeong Eun-woo pointed out, and Park Da-young, who also checked the same picture, said.

“There is a picture of a black fish. Why is this?”

The small, simple fish had a black body and white dot-like eyes. The picture, which is a bit far from the ‘underwater world’ and quite close to ‘friends by the stream’, didn’t seem to be anything special.

“There are a lot of pictures like this all over the map… Isn’t it just design? “You made it up?”

“But only this guy moves.”

“Oh, it’s moving.”

Then the words were a little different.

“It’s weird when it moves.”

I wasn’t sure if other similar pictures were moving at the same time, but if only one of them was moving, that was a clear hint. Dayoung Park stared at the fish that were close to her ‘friends by the stream.’

And after a while, the fish was seen flinching and shaking. It was very short, but it was clearly visible.

“Oh, it really moves.”

“This guy is the only one like this.”

“Then is this a wetsuit…?”

“I’m not sure. “I see it moving, so it might be marking a specific monster.”

“The wetsuit could be a monster.”

“It’s not out of the question.”

Sang-hwa, who had been quiet, intervened in the conversation between the two.

“…If you mean the hallway before ‘Friends by the Creek’.”

“Ah yes.”

“Then I think I know who is where the fish is marked.”

“yes?”

“Are there Han Do-yoon and Kim Ki-jeong in the hallway before passing ‘Friends by the Stream’?”

“….”

“That toothpick said he couldn’t cross, so he stayed there…”

Jeong Eun-woo said, blinking.

“Have they already found the wetsuit?”

“…No, there is no guarantee that the fish had a wetsuit on it…”

“It might be worth checking.”

That’s how the wetsuit team’s destination was decided.

* * *

Meanwhile, back again, the waiting team at the concert hall.

“….”

Lee Jae-heon, who was quietly looking up at the tank, turned and walked away.

“…Where are you going now, uncle?”

“What are you planning to do, Manager?”

Immediately, Song In-myeong and Jeong In-ho followed.

Lee Jae-heon looked at Song In-myeong and Jeong In-ho following behind him with pitiful eyes. He looked like he didn’t understand why these two were doing this to him, which irritated Jung In-ho quite a bit.

“I was asking where are you moving now while you’re shedding so much blood?”

“Aha, it’s okay.”

“Isn’t that up to the manager to decide?”

“So, our junior is a doctor?”

“….”

Jeong In-ho has never missed Ha Seong-yoon as much as he does now.

“…So what are you doing?”

“That room.”

Jaeheon Lee asked, pointing to room number 10.

“Have you checked yet?”

“….”

“I understand that room 11 was not properly checked either.”

“So the manager was trying to go in there?”

“Why not?”

Before the angry Jeong In-ho could say anything, Song In-myeong stepped in and grabbed Lee Jae-heon by the shoulder.

“You can’t go in there anyway. Don’t you remember that only people who passed through the theme zone corresponding to each room could go in?”

“Oh, I see.”

“So let’s send that bastard away.”

Song In-myeong pointed to Jeong In-ho.

Jeong In-ho bent his fingers in reverse.
