We were only able to arrive 20 minutes later than the originally promised time.
“Uh, come on… .”
Seul-hye Yoon was standing up and waiting in the reserved room even before we entered.
She took turns looking at me and Jin Ye-seul with an anxious gaze, and carefully sat down after watching us sit down.
“Hey, I’m good at cooking here. So why don’t you have something to eat first?”
She pushed us the menu board with a smile that even looked like a submissive one in a way.
The prices listed on the menu board were quite high.
At least, it was not at the level that a student would simply treat and do nothing.
“I’ll just make you a cup of coffee. Add some sugar.”
“for a moment.”
Suddenly, Jin Ye-seul, who was sitting next to me, stopped me.
Then, holding my wrist as if it were a pulse, he began to examine my face and body carefully.
She rubbed my palms, rubbed and fiddled with my hair, and even sniffed the nape of my neck.
To be honest, I was very embarrassed, but fortunately I was able to not show it.
Taking a quick look, Yoon Seul-hye also looked very embarrassed.
“I lost some weight.”
Jin Ye-seul, who gently released my wrist, muttered like that.
“I also lost muscle mass. I guess it’s because I’m overworked or I’m paying attention to something… In this case, a good night’s sleep is the best medicine. So why not avoid caffeinated drinks like coffee for a while? The complexion is a little dark there… My shoulders are a little stiff, and I have a slight sign of indigestion, right? Aren’t your eyes a little blurry?”
At her words, I nodded my head.
… Because it was all as she said.
“Did you hear that? There was no coffee. I’m trying to get you something else instead, okay?”
“yes? Ah yes. Of course.”
Yoon Seul-hye looked at Jin Ye-seul’s appearance, wondering if she was a healer or had that kind of ability.
And I knew better than anyone that Jin Ye-seul had no such ability.
“… … .”
She shut her mouth as if there was nothing she could do now.
Then he reached under the table and invisibly placed his hand on my thigh.
I wasn’t surprised because I had arranged the story with her beforehand.
It was because Yoon Seul-hye decided to give a signal like Morse code by tapping once if what she said was true and twice if it was a lie.
“then… What story shall we start with?”
When I opened my mouth moderately, Seul-hye Yoon looked at me with a nervous expression.
I asked, looking intently into her hardened eyes.
“I’ll ask you just once, what exactly do you want me to do?”
“… Please protect my life from Choi Jun-hyung and his gang.”
tock.
Jin Ye-seul’s finger touched my thigh once.
truth.
“why?”
I spread my hands slightly.
“Since each of us is in a busy position, I will put aside the introduction and talk about the main body. Why do I have to protect you?”
She seemed to have calmed down a little compared to yesterday, so she didn’t immediately shout or shout.
I just kept my lips shut and looked at him.
“Let’s be honest. you… Junhyung Choi After being ordered by that person, you tried to inject strange magic into my body, and even did funny things to my dorm. In addition, Yuna and my close acquaintances were even blatantly shamed in front of my eyes.”
“But now that you’re coming along, I don’t think you’re going to hit a player and stick to me.”
“Is there any guarantee that you will betray me again, or that you won’t? Above all else, I don’t know why I have to take care of you and protect you.”
Seul-hye Yoon kept her mouth shut and just listened to my story.
Then she blinked a few times and then glanced at me.
“… May I give you an answer now?”
I nodded.
She sighed and opened her mouth.
“The first word… There’s no excuse. That’s right, I thought so at first. But please don’t misunderstand this. At first, I was Yoo Ji-hyuk… The reason I did that to you was because I was ordered. As you already know, all upbringing is Choi Jun-hyung, and he receives orders from that person. I was in that position.”
tock.
“There were no personal feelings at all. Really.”
tock tock.
lie.
I narrowed my eyes slightly and looked at her.
“really?”
“yes? yes… .”
“… I forgot to say this, but if I lie from now on, I’ll just do something that never happened. I’ll give you three chances.”
Saying so, I tapped and tapped the table with my fingers.
“And you just missed a chance?”
“That, that… ! I really… !”
Yoon Seul-hye, who had half-raised her body as if in a frenzy, suddenly jerked and stopped moving.
It was because Jin Ye-seul got up from her seat at one point and kicked her shoes right next to her temple.
For a moment, it was so fleeting that I was startled.
It was probably a blink of an eye from Yoon Seul-hye’s point of view.
“sit down.”
With a bloody click, a blade protruded from her hoof.
“Jihyuk is talking.”
Yoon Seul-hye sat down with her body trembling with humiliation and fear at her sad thoughts.
Then, Jin Ye-seul slowly recovered the kicked leg and sat down as if nothing had happened.
“… continue. Don’t forget that you only have two chances left.”
As I waved my hand as if to continue, Yoon Seul-hye looked at Jin Ye-seul slightly and nodded her head.
“… I’m sorry. To be honest, I didn’t have any feelings at first, but… I was vindictive for many things you said.”
tock.
“By the way, that person who broke into the bedroom is Manchas and is a member of the upbringing… He said he would come first, so he said he would find out without me knowing.”
tock tock.
“One time left.”
“ah… !”
Yoon Seul-hye cried out in an urgent voice to see if the situation was understood only then.
“Sin, I’m sorry! That’s what I asked for, that’s what I asked for. Sorry for lying!”
“… Okay, so keep talking.”
“Yes Yes… .”
Yoon Seul-hye came out with a more atrophied look than before and continued speaking while watching Jin Ye-seul’s eyes.
“That, and the second statement is also true… Because they betrayed me first, I am doing this with the thought that if I would be betrayed, I would rather betray myself first. My life is precious too. More than anything… I hated Choi Junhyung from the beginning. Perhaps other people of upbringing did the same.”
tock.
“You said last time I might betray you… To be honest, I have no way left now. So it can’t be. There’s no way I’ll be able to act as a double spy, and even if I do, I’ll kill you if I keep my mouth shut.”
This too was true.
After thinking for a moment, I looked at her and asked.
“Okay, then let’s talk a little more realistic and calculating.”
“… Is it a realistic and calculating story?”
“okay.”
I nodded and looked at her.
“If I protect you, what will you do for me?”
“that… .”
Then a knock was heard.
It seemed that the dishes we ordered earlier had arrived.
The story that had been cut off resumed only after the employees came in and laid out a lot of dishes on the table, especially in front of me.
“I will give you everything I can.”
Yoon Seul-hye said so and looked at me with firm eyes.
“I’m not proud of it, but I’m a pretty famous idol and actor. He is also a member of a group that is a symbol of the association called upbringing. The money you saved up… To be honest, I don’t have much, but I have a building and a penthouse in my name. In addition, there are many connections in various fields, and above all, it is popular with the public. Yoo Ji-hyuk-sama is a member of the World Tree clan, which now has only two members, so it may seem ridiculous… Still, if I go under Yoo Ji-hyuk, at least one person will do his part. Really.”
After a moment’s hesitation, she said as if she had made up her mind.
“Well, there… That’s good enough for the face. So… .”
“Wait a minute.”
I hesitated and waved my hand to stop her.
“What do you mean by that?”
“yes?”
“Your face is fine, so look at me and tell me what to do.”
“That, that… .”
As soon as I saw her face turn red with shame, I snorted as if it wasn’t even funny.
“Do you see me as an idiot now?”
“yes? Oh no. How can I… !”
“Then what do you think you are talking about? Last time I thought it was because you were excited, but seeing that you keep mentioning it, it doesn’t seem like that? Or you… .”
“Come on, wait a minute!”
Yoon Seul-hye, who cried in an urgent voice, got up from her seat in a hurry.
Next to him, Jin Ye-seul said, ‘You dare cut off Ji-hyuk’s words… ?’ and a clicking sound was heard.
“Sorry, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Please forgive me.”
And at some point, Yoon Seul-hye, who knelt down, looked up at me.
“Hey, I was short. Rice, not an excuse… Choi Jun-hyung, I think the thing that that person cursed at me for being a b*tch with only a body was engraved in my head without me knowing. Well, I didn’t mean to. Really. Just in the sense that I am so desperate… .”
At the end, seeing her crying, I beckoned to her to get up and sit down.
However, Yoon Seul-hye continued to weep as she did not see it.
“I really wasn’t like that… I really don’t want to die… please… Whoa!?”
“Okay, stop crying and sit down.”
Jin Ye-seul got up from her seat and lightly lifted her up with one hand.
And he smiled brightly at her, who was struggling with surprise.
“Jihyuk is in trouble.”
With those words, Jin Ye-seul sat her down.
“Hey, I don’t really have anything anymore… That’s all… .”
Jin Ye-seul, who sat calmly in her seat, tapped and touched my thigh.
Seeing her whimpering as if she was going to cry at any moment, I leaned forward, hoping that it would be okay by now.
“Yeah, even if you think about it yourself, what you just said isn’t worth your life?”
At those words that were nothing more than confirmation, tears burst out of Yoon Seul-hye’s eyes.
She nodded her head now almost giggling.
“By the way… If I do what I say correctly, I think I can fill that gap.”
“… yes?”
She looked at me with a blank expression.
“I will save you.”
Saying that, he gently shook his head.
“Instead, can you do just one thing I ask you to do?”
She nodded frantically.
I smiled and slowly began to tell her what I had in mind.
* * *
“… Then I will tell you the details later.”
“Yes Yes!”
Yoon Seul-hye nodded with a bright expression on her face that she thought it was the person who had just runny nose and sniffled.
“Is there anything else you would like to ask or anything?”
“No, no. nothing! Can I just keep in touch with Choi Jun-hyung and be as usual until Ji-hyuk tells me otherwise?”
I nodded my head at the whispering words.
As if reassured, she continued to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief and let out a gasp of breath.
Then she looked at me as if sorry, who had been messing around with her face.
“Oh, I’m really sorry… Can I go to that bathroom?”
“You don’t even need permission to do that.”
“Ah yes. Then excuse me for a moment.”
With those words, Seul-hye Yoon carefully walked out of the room.
I looked at Jin Ye-seul, who was sitting next to me.
Her eyes met and she smiled softly.
“why?”
“No, it’s nothing, thank you for your help.”
“Thank you… I am so happy that Jihyuk was helpful to you.”
I laughed a little at her words.
Then, the phone rang softly.

(｡•́︿•̀｡) =3 eh
“… … .”
It was Esmeralda Listenerger’s text that contained quite a bit of bones.
Come to think of it, no one was as bad with me as she did.
With that in mind, I sent a text message.
Just like we talked, I will bring in the children of Milited including Choi Jun-hyung.
When you get a detailed schedule from the academy, you can make a plan at that time.
ps) Since the captain of the SS is dead, you too will be able to move more easily.
All of the previous conversation had been recorded and sent to her.
Lydia also asked to meet me for a job at the association, so I wanted to send you more detailed and accurate information if you also share this information.
“Who are you texting with? swimming?”
“Ah, because of the previous work.”
Jin Ye-seul, who looked at me curiously, had nothing to hide, so I showed her cell phone.
She mumbled that she didn’t have to, and handed me a fork.
“Okay, now that the story is all over, let’s eat slowly. The body is, once it breaks down, quickly. Besides, Jihyuk has been pushing you for a while. So, you have to eat diligently to replenish your nutrients.”
“Yesul, are you?”
Jin Ye-seul smiled brightly.
“I am on a diet.”
“… Are you Yesul?”
Even in empty words, she wasn’t the type of person who needed to go on a diet.
Jin Ye-seul replied with a grin.
“It’s not just for cosmetic purposes. It has become a habit.”
Having said that, she took the salad with a fork and handed it to me.
“Come on, come on. If you don’t eat it, you will tell other people.”
It was when she said yes and handed the fork from her hand.
The door opened and Yoon Seul-hye, whose complexion had turned pale for some reason, appeared.
“what?”
When Jin Ye-seul tilted her head, Yoon Seul-hye, who saw her, took a step back in surprise and surprise.
Seeing her like that, Jin Ye-seul said with a bright smile.
“Have you ever seen a ghost? what’s the matter?”
“Oh, no… Stir… .”
“Come in.”
she laughed
“But now that I see you, do you have a bad complexion too? You shouldn’t do that, but you have to take care of your health if you want to do what Jihyuk asked you to do.”
Then he pointed at the food with a fork and said.
“eat.”
* * *
“Heh, huh… Great!”
Yoon Seul-hye, who arrived at the bathroom, immediately washed her face and wiped her dirty face.
It was only now that I could feel the throbbing around my eyes, perhaps because the tension had been relieved.
I didn’t even want to think about how many tears I shed.
“Whew… .”

On the festival day at the academy, you just have to do what he tells you.
He said he would protect himself if he did.
She had never dreamed that just a few words would be so reassuring.
“… … .”
… Of course, if it messes things up, that would be the end of it.
But, thinking about where the hell did it come to be able to survive even if it was just a thread, Yoon Seul-hye sighed a little.
“… Oh, my eyes are really swollen.”
It was when she mumbled that as she looked in the mirror.
“Shh.”
For a moment, I felt a pressure as if someone was grabbing the nape of my neck.
Something like the claws of a wild beast poked and stabbed his neck, dripping blood.
A woman whispered in a sweet voice in her ear, which had stiffened in an instant.
“If you scream, I will kill you. Do not react, ask for help, or… Anyway, I’ll kill you if you do nonsense. Blink twice if you understand what I’m saying.”
Yoon Seul-hye quickly blinked twice.
In the mirror, only Seul-hye Yoon, herself, could be seen.
I got goosebumps.
“If you ask me, I will kill you. So just listen.”
It was a familiar voice.
No, there was nothing to do other than the ears.
Because it was the voice I had just heard.
It was the voice of the woman sitting next to Yoo Ji-hyuk.
“… You tell me not to do anything stupid, and if I break Jihyuk’s expectations or ruin his plan, then I’ll kill him with my own hands. You must have come to threaten me like that.”
“… … .”
“Once upon a time. Denial twice.”
Seul-hye Yoon blinked her trembling eyelids.
“But not like that.”
I got goosebumps at the shrill voice.
His relaxed voice, as if he could kill at any time, was like that of a predator, not a human.
“I’m here to warn you.”
hand holding the neck.
And the other hand climbed up Yoon Seul-hye’s body like a snake.
His whole body trembled as he gently stroked his stomach.
It was because I had heard that a ship was a preferred attack site for wild beasts, especially since it is a place where organs are concentrated.
Even though she was trembling with fear and fear, Yoon Seul-hye could not even move.
“Dare you slap your tail at Jihyuk… ?”
At those words, Seul-hye Yoon blinked her eyes like crazy and shook her head.
Unfortunately, she seems to have just accepted Yoon Seul-hye’s actions as rebellion.
“… Whoops!”
A thin, solid line was engraved under the chin with a momentary squeaking sound.
Yoon Seul-hye, who looked in the mirror and saw the blood dripping down, trembled as if she had a schizophrenia.
“I said your face was so beautiful… ? Dig out the eyeballs, tear the corners of the mouth vertically… Would it be okay if I cut out my nose? yes?”
Yoon Seul-hye blinked twice.
Tears welled up again in the corners of my eyes.
“Ah, sh… .”
“I would like to, but… .”
Yoon Seul-hye groaned at the pain that seemed to grip her chest violently for a moment.
No, to be more precise, it was a pain that felt like grabbing my heart directly.
The voice whispered quietly.
“Because Jihyuk doesn’t like that… So these days, I’ve been working hard to tell Jihyuk that I’m normal… I was appealing that I was changing for the better. You can’t ruin it now because of something like you… huh? Can you hear me?”
Flash.
“yes… yes yes good boy… Why did such a kind child annoy me when I was angry for all this time? Oh, oh my. are you bleeding? I’m sick… .”
The hand that was stroking his hair disappeared, and then the wound was licked with his tongue.
Goosebumps came up again at the very vivid touch.
If I could, I wanted to collapse right now.
“Anyway, these days, there have been only annoying things, but you get annoyed when something similar comes up from somewhere, right? Do you understand me too?”
Yoon Seul-hye nodded her head.

Only then did the voice let her go with a smile as if satisfied.
“Come back. Jihyuk is suspicious.”
With those words, Seul-hye Yoon wiped her eyes and wounds again with her trembling hands and headed to her room.
and… .
“what?”
As if he had never been away from the place, he stopped breathing at the sight of Jin Ye-seul, who was so carefree.
“Have you ever seen a ghost? what’s the matter?”
“Come in.”
At her words, Seul-hye Yoon moved her stiff body somehow and returned to her seat.
She looked at him as if strangely, and pointed at the food with a fork and gave an order.
“eat.”
I couldn’t resist saying that.
