I Became a Villain’s Hero chapter 118

118 – Bait (3)

There is only one week left until everything is over.

Even the last remaining Liem was handed over to the association.

Han Yoo-jung was feeling more and more urgent.

I needed more time.

He was continuing a kind of silent persuasion that maximized Jeong-gyeom’s lingering feelings… but still, his mind did not change.

He still persistently went out to find Trino, and persistently worked hard for Song Soo-yeon.

Of course, it wasn’t that there was no change at all.

Han Yu-jeong constantly spit out words that could stimulate Jung-gyeom’s memories through the note given by Song Soo-yeon, and Jeong-gyeom was dazed each time.

Jeong-gyeom became less talkative as the days passed.

When I secretly opened his door and observed him, I could see Han Yu-jung fiddling with the wish bracelet that he had secretly put in his pocket.

The fight with Solas was gradually becoming mentally burdensome, and he became depressed.

It wasn’t easy to see him struggling emotionally, but it was also necessary.

When Han Yu-jeong’s plan was completed, the lingering feelings she accumulated would be of great help to the plan.

Of course, the choice would be given to Jeong-gyeom.

In any case, Han Yoo-jung spurred on the plan.

If he had had an extra week, he would have been able to completely change Jeong-gyeom’s heart.

But that wasn’t the case… I tried to make the most of the time I was given.

Han Yoo-jung left the mental hospital.

The sleeping pills they prescribed were also in the bag.

As much as he had returned, the death of his younger sister, Han Yu-ra, had only passed five years in terms of timing.

Accordingly, under the pretext of depression, medications were easily prescribed.

With this drug in her arms that she would use someday, she headed back to the hideout.

.

“Gyeom-ah, the food preparation is over.”

“…okay.”

Han Yoo-jung is lost in thought while talking with Jeong-gyeom in the kitchen.

There are things I forgot for a while in my efforts to change his mind.

For her, there was only a week left to make memories with Jeong-gyeom.

Of course, if the trino search took more time, it might be delayed, but… I thought the probability was not high.

Also, if you have expectations, you will be disappointed.

It was rather comfortable to think that there was still a week left.

– Tok tok tok tok.

Han Yu-jeong continued to cut the knife and reflected on the time of a week.

It’s funny, but you don’t know how happy I was to spend time with Jeong-gyeom like this.

Wasn’t it the most emotionally heart-filled time since Yura’s death?

I was so happy just to express my love.

I am grateful to have had this opportunity.

-Tok tok… Tak!

…….How happy was Song Soo-yeon?

“….under.”

Han Yu-jeong laughed at herself at the thought that suddenly came to mind.

She can’t be Song Soo-yeon’s substitute anyway.

I could feel that Jeong-gyeom was happiest when he was next to Song Soo-yeon or Solas.

If he went out to be their substitute for no reason, he might end up doing everything wrong.

So, for now, it was only right… to spend the remaining time preciously.

.

Han Yu-jeong ate dinner with Jeong-gyeom while continuing a light conversation.

Even though Jeong-gyeom may have more worries and concerns than before, I realized that he was treating me much more gently than before.

The starting point was the dream about the past that Han Yu-jeong showed him at that time.

Especially now that the scheduled time is approaching a week ahead, there are many things that answer the question with a short answer to the question of sympathy.

Han Yoo-jung didn’t care if his motive was virginity. It was satisfying enough just to be able to have a conversation like this.

Then comes a moment of silence.

And when there is such silence, the atmosphere cools down as much as you get away from the conversation that makes you forget reality.

Han Yoo-jung was very sorry for each moment like this.

As expected, it was unavoidable because it was under time pressure.

As much as I am impatient, my curiosity also blooms.

how much time is left

“…Gyeom-ah, that’s why Trino is…”

“…”

Jeonggyeom stopped, shaking his head slowly.

“I couldn’t find it.”

“…I see.”

Han Yu-jeong secretly feels relieved.

Even though I knew that catching the trino was Jeong-gyeom’s desire and goal, I had no choice because it was also the destination where everything ended.

-Titling!

The text that arrived at that moment.

“…”

“…”

Han Yu-jeong and Jeong-gyeom exchange glances.

Then, naturally, Han Yoo-jung took out her phone and checked the text message that arrived.

[Trino approaches. Please check the location tracker.]

A simple text from Song Soo-yeon.

However, at that text, Han Yu-jung’s heart hardened coldly.

She unknowingly lied to Jeong-gyeom, who was staring at her.

“S-Spam.”

“…”

As much as Jeong-gyeom was aware, he didn’t seem to believe it completely.

Still, I had no choice.

Taking advantage of this pathetic time, Han Yoo-jung shook her head furiously.

Maybe the time left for her was not a week… maybe a day.

****

After Song Soo-yeon secretly sent a text message, she followed the man into an abandoned building.

In a zone without a single person, a street without a single street light.

Inside the collapsed building, Trino was hiding.

Where did the villain who once boasted of his strength go, hiding like a rat in a place like this?

There were reasons why Jung-gyeom couldn’t find him. If he hadn’t hidden like this, Jeong-gyeom’s fight would have ended sooner.

I thought that maybe the one who was more resolute in death might be on his side.

Especially if there is no Jung-gyeom. Of course, it was never something to brag about.

The man who guided her to this place soon reached out his hand.

“…?”

“Give me your cell phone for a minute.”

“why me?”

“Trino-nim wants that.”

“Isn’t Trino also wanting to meet me? Why do I have to listen to Trino?”

“…This is Trino-sama’s message that if you don’t get a cell phone, don’t bring it in.”

“…”

“Don’t worry, I’ll give it back to you when I get back.”

After all the texts I had to send were sent. Song Soo-yeon gave up the unnecessary fight and handed the phone to the man.

The location tracker Han Yoo-jung gave her was still in her arms, so it would be okay without her cell phone.

Song Soo-yeon had to meet Trino.

Through this, as long as Jeong-gyeom’s fight was over, he could do anything.

I also thought it wouldn’t be a big deal anyway.

Wouldn’t it be at best to say that we should join forces?

Song Soo-yeon moved on.

I twist open the iron door full of rust and enter a room full of dust.

-Kikkik…

Something hits the door.

At the same time, a sound echoed from deep within the room.

“…Give that bag to the man.”

“…”

When Song Soo-yeon looked down, she saw a duffel bag full of luggage.

It looked like a bag of money. Also, it seemed to be the reward of the man who brought her to this point.

Song Soo-yeon nodded to the man.

Then the man lowered his head, grabbed a duffel bag, and headed outside again.

-thud.

Song Soo-yeon closes the door and examines the dark room.

In the distance, I saw a faint figure.

“…”

“…It’s been a while, Luna.”

The person spoke in the same low-pitched voice as before.

Its one eye reflects light like an animal in the dark.

“…Trino.”

“Looks like you and I are the only ones left.”

“……”

“Stingshot, Liquid, Liem, Stella……all of them were captured by that…Dice…monster.”

Trino suddenly let out a slow laugh. It was such an uncomfortable sound that made me uneasy.

Song Soo-yeon asks him to hide his agitation.

It was an effort not to lose the initiative in the conversation.

“…I know even if you don’t tell me. Anyway, tell me why you found me.”

“hmm? So, did you intend to act alone? Wouldn’t it be safer to stick together like this?”

Song Soo-yeon could feel the sarcasm hidden in Trino’s tone.

Every word gave me goosebumps.

“Or, is there any reason why you can be alone?”

“……”

His words seemed like a question, but not like a question.

The atmosphere of the conversation was strange.

Trino momentarily clapped his hands, then rubbed them together.

“…Hey, Luna. I’ve noticed something strange… If you’re looking for opportunities in a place like this, what’s left over is time.”

“…”

“You hear me too, tell me what you think.”

Song Soo-yeon did not respond to his words.

Trino didn’t care and continued talking.

“You seem to be walking around the streets quite freely. is not it? Didn’t you walk around the streets for almost a week this time? Even I found you easily.”

“…”

“Of course it’s you… Since your appearance isn’t known to the outside world, I’d like to think that’s possible… but the problem is that Liem visited you.”

short silence. Trino seemed to be watching Song Soo-yeon’s reaction one by one.

“That Liem disappeared soon after. Probably got caught by Dice. The thing is…you’re back. I went around the streets bragging about my looks again.”

“…”

“When I thought about it, there were not one or two strange things. The day Dice first appeared…you weren’t there. Even when everyone gathered to come up with countermeasures, you didn’t show up. Like, like a person who is full of room.”

Song Soo-yeon finally answers.

“What are you talking about?”

“You know, Luna. What am I going to say?”

“…………”

He got up from his seat and asked softly.

“……You, are you close with Dice?”
