78. Korea (2)
78. Korea (2)
Of course, I had no intention of being in the same group as Osana Najimi, even if I gave them the chance to choose again, but there were some disadvantages to me because that group was formed like that.
The downside was that the possibility of the same thing happening in the original work was quite high.
An example would be the small incident with Riko Irigis and the confession of Osana Najimi.
But I wasn’t worried. Rather, I cheered him on.
***
First of all, in the case of Igiris Rico, I already turned off all the big events, so I wasn’t even worried about such minor incidents.
In the case of Osana Najimi, it was because I had already given up on it, and rather, it was because I was hoping for a successful confession.
If you say you want your confession to be successful, you might ask what that means…
I’ll say it again, he was the guy I gave up on, and if he succeeds in confessing differently than in the original work, Toyoda will become the owner and the harem in the original work will collapse prematurely. Was hoping for
It was a bit difficult to give up because it was a goal I had set since I was very young… But it was true that I was tired from preventing every single thing related to the original work, so it was my idea that I wanted to get rid of the harem itself if I could get rid of it at an early stage. .
“…”
‘Going!’
I shouted “Fighting!” To Osana Najimi, who was grumbling in the distance, and started to walk inside Bulguksa Temple with the children.
***
How long has it been since you and your friends started touring Bulguksa?
I felt that cultural assets are beautiful, but what I felt the most while walking around Bulguksa Temple was.
“…”
Anyway, it seemed that Joe was pretty good.
“Eh- So, these stone steps are Cheongungyo-Baegungyo, which are registered as Korea’s National Treasure No. 23, And are connected to the underground gate leading to Daeungjeon. The top 16 of the stairs are-…”
I thought it was normal… But it must have been my mistake.
One of the members of our group, a male student wearing glasses, was reciting explanations about cultural assets, letting out what he had memorized without looking at anything.
“-Originally, it was said that there was a pond here, but they say there is no current. Then, let’s go see the next one.”
And this explanation continued several times over the course of several tens of minutes.
“…”
…He was such a great guy.
***
How long has it been? As I listened to the child’s explanation and looked around, the gathering time was getting closer before I knew it.
“So this cultural property…”
But there was still a little time left, so the guy’s explanation was still going on.
“…”
As I was listening to that explanation, I suddenly saw Satou Ichikawa and her group on the other side.
They are looking around.
As I was watching them from afar, Ichika Sato approached a Korean man passing by alone and began to ask something.
I wondered what was going on with that figure, so I decided to stop listening to the explanation and watch her move.
As soon as I started to concentrate like that, I started to hear the sound. She asked the man in Korean, which she had been studying hard.
“Eh… Hello! I’m on a school trip in Japan, but I don’t know where it is. Can you help me?”
She’s a bit awkward, but she’s talking bluntly and accurately.
Then, the man seemed taken aback by her appearance, but soon agreed to her request and nodded her head.
“Oh, yes. Where are you looking?”
Then, Sato, who was delighted with the man’s consent, asked him if it was because the communication in the language he had learned so far worked.
“Ah! Thank you so much! Um… Er… Where is Baek Ungyo?”
“Ah, Baegungyo Bridge? So… If you walk 3 minutes from here-…”
And then the man’s explanation.
And finally, when the man’s explanation was over, Sato said with a smile.
“Ah, that’s right! Thank you! hehehe.”
And so, having succeeded in locating her to the male, she returned to her herd.
“Ichika-chan! Sugoi!!!”
“It was like a local!!”
“Isn’t Ichika-chan a total expert?!”
“hehehe…”
At the compliments of her friends who were watching her, she smiled in a good mood but also shyly.
And I, who was looking at them, was also proud of myself for helping them.
After looking at her for a while, I started following our group again.
“…?”
However.
“Eh… It’s a pity, but we don’t have time anymore. I think we’ve reached this point. Let’s go back. So, for the meeting point, turn right here-“
“Wait a minute. Haven’t you seen Iinazuke?”
Iinazuke didn’t see him.
When I interrupted him and asked about the whereabouts of Iinazuke, who suddenly disappeared, he said with a questioning expression.
“Yes? I’m good at concentrating on the explanation…”
And the female student, who was concentrating on the explanation, also shook her head in response.
“Me too… I didn’t see it because I was listening to Setsume-kun’s explanation.”
“…”
I finally felt the seriousness of the situation and told the children.
“We don’t have much time, so let’s scatter and find them and then gather at the meeting point. There might be a way to just wait… But maybe something bad happened.”
Then, the two of them, who had a serious expression at my words, said that they would understand, and then went off to find them separately.
And I, too, began speeding down her path to find her.
“……”
I wonder if it’s a big deal… I’m really going crazy because I’m worried.
***
How long has it been?
Her I was looking for her, and finally found her.
Inazuke Iinazuke is talking to a certain woman while staring at a map on the wall in the distance.
Her light blue hair was visible from a distance.
I must have been angry at her disappearance, and I grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her away.
“Hey, follow me.”
“Huh? Huh..?”
“Quickly.”
“…”
Then she, who resisted at first, shut her mouth and quietly followed after me, perhaps realizing that I was angry.
After a long walk, I finally let out a sigh of relief when I was able to arrive four minutes earlier than the meeting time.
After…
“…Where have you been?”
When I finally regained her composure and asked what had happened, Nazuke Ii hesitated uncharacteristically with her cheeks blushing.
“Ha…”
Seeing her like that, I touched her forehead and sighed.
However, after a while, Kurutta, who had been to the meeting place earlier, came to me and said.
“…? Haiseki. Who is that beautiful girl-sama by any chance..?”
Kurutta has a slightly surprised expression.
“…?”
I was dumbfounded by his story, so I asked him what he was asking for granted.
“Who is this? Iinazuke.”
Then Kurutta’s expression looked even more surprised.
He said to me with that expression on his face.
“?????? How do you know that beautiful girl-sama is Iinazuke-sama…????”
“…?”
At first I tried to tell him not to joke around, but then I realized that his expression was genuinely surprised, and then I realized that something was going wrong.
And then I slowly turned my head and looked at the Iinazuke I had brought with me.
Then I found that she was similar but… Very slightly different from Iinazuke.
“…?”
When I was confused and unable to understand the situation, she turned on the interpreter app on her phone and showed it to me as if she had waited.
[That… I think you misunderstood the person.]
“Huh..?”
Embarrassed by her words, I looked at her with her surprised expression.
“……”
I asked her in her Korean, just in case she wanted to.
“Are you… Not Iinazuke?”
Slightly stupid question. However, I couldn’t come up with a better question than that because I couldn’t grasp the situation and was dizzy.
“Huh..?”
But then, as if she was glad to see her, she smiled and spoke.
“Oh yes! You know how to speak Korean! My name is Kang Ha-eun..!”
“…?????”
What…? Kang..Haeun..? Not Yoji Iinazuke..????
And after my head was pounding for a while, I was finally able to figure out the situation.
Ah…
“……”
…Anyway.
That person didn’t look like Iinazuke.
…That’s why.
The person I brought was not her Ii Nazuke, but ‘someone’ who resembled her.
This f*cking facial recognition disorder recognizes it as Iinazuke again, I don’t know. And the nationality was the one who grabbed another person’s wrist and brought it violently with such anger.
“……”
Ah…
“……”
What is this…
…What should I do?
