105 – Chapter 4. Shoveling is the basics of a hero (3)

Baek Seol-hee’s voice was not that of an angry person at all.

Like someone who called me after realizing their mistake, she was clearly watching me.

So the touch came.

This situation, right now, is a favorable situation for me.

‘It’s a little embarrassing.’

It’s hard for me to adapt to the fact that the gunman puts in the setting that he is married, but this is a situation like this, so it works in my favor.

Maybe the gunman looked ahead and asked him to reveal that he was married on Ulleungdo?

Also, the gun is great.

“I’m sorry. I should have texted you in the middle.”

[Ji, where are you now?]

“Seoul. Home.”

[ah….]

A sigh as if it was X.

[That, I’ll hang up!]

“It’s okay. I went to wash up now… It’s okay to talk for a while. That’s why I called now.”

i am a villain

Let’s be shameless.

“Did you call me because you thought I was on Sejong Island?”

[…….]

“I’m sorry. I should have contacted you before I left. I’ll call you first next time. He said he’s stopping by at his house in Seoul. Hmm… A couple on the weekend? No, it’s like seeing them once a month.”

[Even though they’re a couple…?]

“Because my wife is a very busy person.”

That’s not wrong.

Busy conquering the world, right now, he must be busy negotiating shares with Oktober Travel.

[…Somehow, Ji-hwan seems to be a little different from ordinary people.]

“Yes. Me and my wife too. Is it because the world has become like this? hahahaha.”

[Is your wife…a person with special abilities?]

“It’s difficult to say that far.”

It is NG who is trying to figure out the identity.

“Seol-hee, I’m sorry. When I go back to Sejong Island after vacation, I’ll make a reservation for that pension on Ulleungdo. Seol-hee, if you want to come, come.”

[……There is no need to be sorry, Ji-hwan. It’s a bad year.]

“No. It’s my fault that I wasn’t there when Seolhee needed me.”

I didn’t do anything wrong, I apologize.

It’s definitely something to hurt his pride, but by putting me down, Seol-hee Baek has a bigger sense of debt.

“I’ll be by your side next time. Sooner or later…ugh.”

[Why, why are you like that?]

“Oh, no.”

Pretending to be slightly sick, lay a foreshadowing.

“I was just trying to hide it when I asked who was calling… hahahaha.”

[……do you know?]

“I know. Of course.”

I also get confused sometimes.

But even from now on, I must hypnotize myself and tell Baek Seol-hee.

“Um, I’ll contact you later. See you later, Mr. Seolhee.”

[…Yeah. That, I’m really sorry.]

“What? But thank you. For answering the phone. I thought Seol-hee was angry.”

[I was an asshole when I got angry. I’ll do better next time. Ah, then…!]

Baek Seol-hee hurriedly hung up the phone.

After confirming that the call was definitely disconnected, I burst into laughter.

“What are you good at?”

“What did you say? Did you get angry? Why did you get angry when you didn’t answer the phone?”

Gung-ki, who had just washed her hair, wrapped her hair in a towel once, and I grabbed the hair dryer while receiving the towel from her sitting in front of the dressing table.

“He realized that he was in the position of an adulterous woman and came out with a low profile.”

“Chief Doo, do you have a lot of fun playing with Baek Seol-hee?”

“I did say that I was playing with it, but I’m not acting like a bully.”

“Have you a wife and are you cheating on her?”

“I got permission from my wife, so it’s okay. I just apologized for not answering the phone.”

“Huh…”

A warm wind permeates through the wet hair of the gunggi.

You can dry your hair right away through magical powers, but Gung-gi prefers to dry her hair herself like this.

“Do it with one hand. Don’t move your sore hand for nothing.”

“If you move with magic, it won’t hurt.”

“You should get well soon.”

“Rather, it’s better if it doesn’t heal quickly. I’m getting a phone call from my wife right now, so I’m taking measurements for a broken bone in my left hand.”

“…foot.”

The gunggi let out a laugh.

“Will you excuse the wounds of the goblin that way?”

“Wouldn’t it be better to say that the man caught cheating on his wife got beaten up rather than being revealed as a goblin?”

“It’s a legitimate wish.”

“Um… then let’s just say ‘I told you not to do it with other girls when you were with me!’”

Baek Seol-hee also thinks that I am patriotic with my wife, so there is no particular lack of probability.

“As soon as I talk to a woman, she immediately dries the other woman’s hair. Chief Do, if I get stabbed in the stomach later, I think it’s karma.”

“I have already prepared my heart.”

“Oh my. Is Baek Seol-hee important enough to make such a resolution?”

“It’s S-class.”

Also a heroine.

“Well, it’s good. It’s good that I was able to unite with Chief Do after a long time thanks to Baek Seol-hee.

Goong-gi continued talking while glaring at me through the mirror.

“You have to be nice to other executives too. I hate being bullied into a 1:3 ratio.

“I will do my best as much as I did to the director.”

“Yes, yes. I really don’t like being bothered by them. Last time, when I put my image on the Doge Rider and fought, if the president wasn’t there, I would say, ‘Why do goblins use your skills?’ and tried to brush it off.”

“ha ha ha….”

The anticipation goes away and goose bumps run down my spine.

“But thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to handle things very easily this time. If this situation goes well, the president will take good care of me, and then I…”

He stroked his face with his hand with a serious face.

“Hey, Chief Do.”

“Yes, sir.”

“In the Dangun myth, it was said that a bear could become a human if he ate only garlic and mugwort for three seven days.”

“It was.”

“…is it real?”

“Director.”

I put down the dryer.

“Nothing is impossible. After Cataclysm, there is no such thing as ‘logically impossible’ in this world anymore.”

Her hair was all dry and soft, and I put magic into my right hand and made it like a comb to brush her hair and tidy it up.

“This is a world where humans have become demons and supernatural powers have become reality. Believe in the possibility. Faith is power.”

“It’s a very pseudo-like word.”

“If it works, it will be a religion, not a cult.”

Nothing is impossible in this world.

There are cases where readers from the real world have been kidnapped into this world, but anything is impossible.

“Trust the gunman. Trust me. And…trust yourself, the director. If it’s impossible, I’ll find a possibility.”

“how?”

“With the goblin’s bat, snap.”

“…Poop!”

Perhaps it was because he suddenly brought up the story of the goblin’s bat while talking seriously, Gung-ki covered his mouth with his hand and trembled.

“What is it? What if I talk like that?”

“You think this is a joke?”

I whispered softly into her ear.

And the gunggi immediately hardened his expression, and his lips began to tremble.

“What, what is that…!”

“It’s one of the ‘last plans’ the commander-in-chief said.”

“Did you know the other kids?”

“I don’t know. I’m talking specifically to the director.”

“Ugh, ugh…”

Gung-gi blushed in embarrassment, and turned his head with one hand on his chin.

“I’ll pretend I didn’t know later, so don’t ever tell the other kids that you only told me first.”

“Sure.”

seoul.

The sun is slowly moving towards midheaven.

* * *

that time.

Somewhere in Gangwon-do, in a deserted place, a group of masked men gathered together.

“…….”

The masked ones couldn’t even say anything.

Most of the members who departed from Samcheok never returned.

“Who were the people who confronted Samcheok?”

“All arrested by Ahmaud Taejo.”

“Then they…”

“I don’t know where they’ll be sent, but I think they’ll at least be sent to an island over there.”

“…tsk.”

A man in a scholarly suit wearing a ‘Hahoe mask’ that was distinctly different from the others clicked his tongue openly.

“It’s over. This job is a failure. Everyone withdraws.”

“Now, wait! ‘Saengwon’ is better! This isn’t it!”

Malttugi, who was behind the people, stepped forward and shouted.

“Comrades are dead! Senior Yeongno too! How many people have been killed and captured right now, so let’s just withdraw from here?!”

“We couldn’t steal the gene, but Armored Taejo succeeded in breaking it himself. Stop the S-class gene from being taken out of the country. We succeeded in our mission.”

“Because my comrade is dead!!”

“It was a mission worth dying for, and we succeeded because we were willing to die. People might think we failed, but we didn’t. We succeeded spectacularly.”

Saengwon held a black 007 bag.

“Because there is a ‘weapon’ inside this that can stab the enemy’s heart.”

“that’s…!”

“Malduk. Do you know why the country has completely erased all traces of the active party? Do you know why they are pretending that those who ran on the road amidst a series of incidents were just escorting Yuliana?”

“……Isn’t it because we stole it?”

“yes.”

Saengwon opened the 007 bag.

The inside of the red cushion, like a miniature, was packed into several bags.

“There will be an uproar in the nearby military base. We will be tracked down. We will have to keep quiet for the time being. As much as we have obtained this.”

“but…!”

“I know you followed Yeongno well. But don’t forget that he died for a mission. Our enemies… are this rotten country. They sold Gangwon-do to a foreign country.”

“…….”

Malttugi just trembled with clenched fists.

“Or be strong enough to take revenge. The one who killed Yeongno… is likely to be a goblin.”

“…….”

“Don’t become a demon blinded by vengeance.”

“……Yes.”

Malttugi just quietly looked at the items in the bag coldly.

007 in the bag.

It contained a ‘chariot’ smaller than a fist.
