chapter 9
9 – 009. Yewon Ji (3)
That afternoon.
“Ugh, hmm.”
She felt a soft touch on Ji Ye-won’s cheek as she tossed and turned as she let out a light moan.
It feels good, but it feels strange somewhere.
She rubbed her cheek inadvertently and opened her eyes softly. A white pillowcase spread out like a pure white snowy field in half of the blurred vision.
And the appearance of a room full of a sense of life beyond that.
Her eyes closed softly, then opened with furious force.
– Jump up.
Ji Yewon raised her body. The warm cotton blanket that was covering her body dripped down. A light chill permeates through the hem of her dress.
“You are awake.”
An unfamiliar voice from behind.
When she turned her head, the security guard she had met during the day was sitting in an awkward posture.
She asked, with her head dazed from having just woken up.
“…… Where are you?”
Look around. A small one-room that college students often use. Judging from the many men’s clothes hanging on the hangers on the wall, the gender of the owner of the room must be male.
‘…… Why did I lose my mind?’
However, she had no memories of her until she came here.
She was deep in thought, holding her forehead. I slowly retraced her memories before she passed out.
The Dawning. The Chaser. Escape. Motel. Room service. Watch. And a Taser gun.
With her memories gradually returning, her mind became clearer little by little.
“Huh?”
At that moment, I felt a sense of discomfort in my lower body.
“What…… ?”
She rubbed her thighs gently at the strange feeling of openness felt beneath her. However, she didn’t feel the texture of the fabric she should have felt at all.
In her uneasy mind, she twists her back and gently removes her blanket.
“Huh?”
The moment her white ass caught her eyes, her head went white as well.
About 5 seconds to look at the scene without saying anything.
Her thighs, which she carelessly stroked, were as dry as if they had just been washed. When she sniffed it, she could feel the subtle scent of body wash.
“…… Uh?”
Her little parted lips trembled.
Soon Ji Ye-won’s head slowly turned to the side. Ahn Soo-ho, who was in front of him, averted his gaze to the side, as if he had no courage to meet her eyes.
“Hey.”
“… ….”
“Hey. Answer me.”
“…… Yes.”
“Why am I not wearing anything underneath?”
Unable to hold on to that question any longer, An Su-ho turned her head. Her attitude made her even more anxious.
“Huh? To answer…… ?”
Ahn Suho bit her lower lip. It was a matter she had no choice but to reveal anyway.
“Do you remember that Mr. Yewon was hit by a taser shot by us?”
“I remember. Her blonde-haired flirt suddenly shot her. Even though I said I would surrender.”
“…… I apologize for that.”
“The blonde hair should apologize. Where did he go?”
“We split before coming here. I’m going to prepare a change of clothes.”
“Clothes? What should I wear?”
“Yes. The clothes you were originally wearing are not in a condition that you can wear right now…….”
“What do you mean by that?”
Ahn Suho let out a deep sigh. This explanation should be made by the perpetrator, Chae-yeon, not by himself. I was resentful of her leaving for an hour and not coming back after I went to get her change of clothes.
‘When I come back, I’ll give it a shot. Must.’
He forcibly opened his mouth, which would not come off, and continued.
“Mr. Yewon was hit by that Taser gun, right? Then that…….”
“Then what?”
“That, you are incontinent.”
“Huh?”
At those words, the expression on Ji Ye-won’s face disappeared.
“Poetry, incontinence?”
“You don’t have to be shy. A taser is an electrical shock that temporarily disrupts the central nervous system and causes muscles to contract. As a result, incontinence due to momentary muscle relaxation and nervous system disturbance when the current is stopped is extremely normal-.”
“…… Stop. Don’t bother explaining You don’t have to.”
“Yes.”
Ji Ye-won’s face was dyed red like an apple in season. Twisting her thighs in her embarrassment, she pulled her blanket up to her chest.
It didn’t matter because it was a natural reaction of the central nervous system. The only thing that filled her head was the shame of urinating in front of people at twenty-three.
‘No, let’s not worry too much about it. That’s not what’s important right now.’
She shook her head and brushed her thoughts off.
She herself is being chased by the Dawning Corps right now. That one or two incontinence was nothing compared to the current situation she was facing.
She took a deep breath, catching all her confused emotions.
‘But wait.’
A question suddenly popped up at that time.
“There he is.”
“Yes?”
The only person in this small studio is the man in front of him besides himself. The blonde haired girl she was with had a split before coming here, she said.
As I thought about it, a question naturally came to my mind.
“Who took off my clothes? And who washed me…… ?”
The eyes of the two met, and An Su-ho turned his head with a bitter expression.
There was no answer, but the expression already conveyed enough meaning.
“Ah.”
Ji Ye-won’s face turned red even more.
***
“I’m here!”
The moment the door opened and Chae-yeon came in, I swung my fist as if I had waited.
– Tick Kong!
“Evil!”
Cleanly filled honey chestnuts. In an unexpected surprise, Chae-yeon grabbed her by the top of her head and screamed out loud.
“What! Why do you hit me!”
“A flying insect flew around and suddenly came into the car I was trying to catch.”
“Does that make sense?! Someone catches bugs with their fists!”
“You should apologize to him first.”
“Apology?”
When I pointed at Ji Ye-won, Chae-yeon exclaimed, “Ah.”
Ji Ye-won was in a hurry and was still wearing my pants. However, the trouser hem dragged on and the waist continued to flow down, which was hardly a condition to wear around.
“That, sorry.”
“Give me your clothes.”
Ji Ye-won had the attitude that she didn’t need an apology or anything. She roughly snatched the paper bag in her hand.
“I’m sorry. There must have been a problem with communication between us. I only thought that An Su-ho was acting like he was conciliatory to get your attention? But I can’t imagine that was a sincere request for surrender-“
“Get out now.”
“Huh?”
“Get out. I’m going to change.”
“Am I not okay? It’s the same woman.”
“Are you leaving?”
At Ji Ye-won’s order to celebrate guests, Vegetable Yeon went to the front door, grumbling. She’s me. She’s gone.
As soon as the creaking iron door closed, Chae-yeon let out her ballmen.
“Truly. I think Ji is the master of criminals.”
“This house is not soundproofed. You will hear everything.”
“It’s a sound to listen to.”
“Well, you have to understand that it is a bit harsh. Wasn’t So-yeon’s fault for working during the day?”
Whether it was because of work during the day or some other reason, Ji Ye-won kept her silence with a dark expression except for when she had just woken up and was in a daze. She seemed uneasy, sometimes letting out her sighs or immobilizing her body.
That’s right, since you’re being chased by the Dawning Corps, you must be nervous.
“No, that’s it, but! The way he squeaks and squeaks when he first meets him, and his attitude is too casual! Is not it?”
“…… Didn’t Mr. So-yeon speak plainly to me when we first met?”
When I asked Chae-yeon, who vented her dissatisfaction, if you did the same, she tilted her head.
“Huh? Me? Isn’t that obvious? I’m your senior at work, why do you treat me with respect?”
“That’s the same department, and we are completely different departments, right? Isn’t mutual respect usually the principle in such situations?”
“Why are you so picky? We’re the same age anyway, so we can use informal language.”
“Really?”
You said well once.
“Then I’ll use short language too, So-yeon.”
“Eh?”
When I said it as if it went well, Chae-yeon frowned. It was like a bullsh*t.
“It was annoying to write respectful words, but it worked out. Are you going to keep talking?”
“Why is that so? I came in much earlier than the guards wanted to come in, but what a distant junior-.”
“What is much? When I asked Min Chaeryeong, the team leader, it was six months at the most. And what are you so picky about? You can use short words between people of the same age.”
“Hey, but respect for seniors-.”
“If you want to be treated like a senior, you have to show a little more like a senior. I was caught watching. Even so, today’s daytime is real. And… ….”
“Profit!”
Chae-yeon couldn’t refute what to say, and only her feet tumbled. Seeing that, she seemed to be getting rid of her congestion a little.
‘b*tch like Lime.’
In addition to what I’ve seen over the past few days, even today’s Taser gun.
A nuisance to clumsy work handling is a nuisance. The image of vegetable-yeon in me has long since fallen into abyss.
I couldn’t understand at all how this kind of Jeong Park-ah could be with the Special Countermeasures Division, and even as a team member directly under Min Chaeryeong.
‘The fact that Min Chaeryeong took it means that he is good at something.’
First of all, it is not the field of information. Looking at surveillance activities so far, spying, tailing, and infiltration are out of the question.
Looking at the way he overpowered me in the alley or during the day, I wondered if he was specialized in combat, but he might have abilities I never imagined.
“Oops, I don’t know. Okay. You’ll talk to me now or anytime. If you go to the Special Investigation Department, you wouldn’t dare to even look at me in the middle of the day. I watched it, really.”
“Yes, yes. Then, can I ask you something?”
“What is it?”
“I was curious about your psychic powers.”
Psychic powers. The core setting that forms the basis of the worldview of .
In this world where the strength of a superhuman is said to be the strength of supernatural power, if Chae-yeon has a special strength, it will most likely come from her supernatural power.
‘Whatever it is, it’s at least better than my ability.’
The psychic powers that I have, that is, given to ‘character Ahn Su-ho’, cannot be said to be good even with empty words.
A pitiful psychic power that has nothing to do with direct combat power, and is at best used for tying the enemy’s feet or tricking their eyes.
On the other hand, Jae Gwa-yeon has a special task, and since it is a team member directly under Min Chae-ryeong, he must have quite useful abilities.
When I questioned her about her thoughts, her vegetable kite spat out with her pouting face.
“…… Can’t tell me that It’s confidential.”
“It’s the same guard, but where is the emergency fund?”
“It’s the same guard, but it’s a different department. If you really want to hear it, come to the special department.”
Is it really confidential or is it just pouting?
As if she had nothing more to say, Chae-yeon turned her head away. He probably won’t tell you even if you ask more.
– Knock!
At that time, the closed front door burst open.
“Yewon? Are you all changed?”
In response to my question, Ji Ye-won stuck her head out through the open door and sighed. Soon, her gaze turned to Chae-yeon.
“Hey. Blonde kid.”
“What?”
Chae-yeon opened her eyes and looked up at Ji Ye-won.
“Blonde kid? Why do you leave a normal name and call me that way?”
“Enough. Why are all the clothes I brought with me like that?”
“What are my clothes like?”
At those words, Yewon Ji exclaimed in rage.
“The size is not right. Size!”
“Size?”
At those words, Chae-yeon’s eyes turned to Ji Ye-won’s lower body. It was hidden from view by the front door from my side.
“Ah.”
I don’t know what she saw, but soon a look of regret came to her face.
“Doesn’t all the other clothes fit?”
“Yes. Are these all your clothes?”
“Yes. These are my clothes…… ?”
Ji Ye-won touched her forehead as if she was dumbfounded. I roughly understood what the situation was.
Chae So-yeon is in her mid-140s. On the other hand, Ji Ye-won’s chin is slightly under 180, so it would be around 165.
Her height difference is only about 20 cm, and Ji Ye-won’s body is much bigger than Chae-yeon’s. Of course, there was no way that Chae-yeon’s clothes would fit.
“Not at all right? Anything for real?”
“Come inside first.”
Ji Ye-won dragged Chae-yeon into the room, and a buzzing sound came from inside her.
-I didn’t know what kind of clothes he would like, so I brought 10 sets, but they all didn’t fit?
The faint voice of Chae-yeon. Perhaps because it was a cheap studio, the soundproofing was poor, and the conversation between the two echoed faintly.
-There’s no way that 10 or 100 clothes that fit your size would fit me. Do you have an idea or not?
-I didn’t know everything would fit! Long pants aside, what about this? If it’s hot pants, the length doesn’t matter, right?
-That’s not right with the pelvis. It goes all the way to my butt, but the zipper won’t close.
-Then what about the skirt? Do you think this pleated skirt will fit?
-Same as pants. My pelvis doesn’t fit, how should I wear it?
-No, skirts don’t have to fit your pelvis. Like this, he lifted his top to his waist……. Ah.
-If this is the case, even if the length is insufficient, it is not enough. She’s not some kind of body girl and how is she doing this? No, why did she come with all these clothes? Didn’t you have that common sweatpants at home?
-I have one, but I’m afraid people won’t like it because it’s pink…….
In the midst of the situation with no sign of ending, I took out a cigarette from my pocket and asked.
“Whoa, whoa.”
As I inhaled the smoke deep into my lungs, my mind seemed to clear up.
“…… f*ck.”
As I pondered over the current situation with a clear mind, a belated strike came.
‘It’s not some kind of one-tool light novel.’
This side’s life depends on the success or failure of this quest right now, but at this busy moment, the two of them were in the middle of a dress-up event, like heroines in a light novel.
‘What is the importance of those clothes? It just needs to be worn loosely.’
I was dissatisfied with their attitude, but on the other hand, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand them at all.
Yewon Ji probably has a sense of awareness about the pursuer of her own organization. Didn’t they attack this side without fail even during the day today?
‘I was running away alone against the dawn, so my nerves must have been on edge.’
In the meantime, an unexpected helper called the Guard has appeared. Relief might ease some of the tension.
I opened the quest tab and activated the timer.
[ Remaining time until incident: 1 day 4 hours 11 minutes 6 seconds. ]
About 28 hours left.
It was a time that could never be said to be leisurely, but thanks to Ji Ye-won’s recruit, I was able to relax.
The key was how to protect Ji Ye-won from the assassin, but Min Chae-ryeong asked me to take care of that, so I wouldn’t have to worry.
‘It’s time to get a call from that side.’
This was the car I thought of while looking at the sky dyed in vermilion.
– Knock!
“An Su-ho.”
Chae-yeon stuck her head out through the door.
“Are you finished?”
“No, let me ask you one favor. Could you go to the convenience store across the street and buy me one pair of black stockings? In XL size.”
She said that as Chae-yeon handed over her card. She let out a sigh of relief.
“No, why stockings?”
“The only thing that fits is the skirt, but even if it’s short, it’s too short. Doesn’t it look a bit like wearing it on bare legs?”
“Couldn’t you just tell me to dress roughly?”
“No. According to her, even a woman who sells herself wouldn’t wear it like that.”
At that, she drew a rough picture in her head. She originally assumed that it was a length from Chae-yeon’s pelvis to her knees, and if Ji Ye-won, who is 20 cm tall, pulled it up to her waist…….
“…… It certainly looks a little like that.”
“Do you want to see it?”
“I miss you, b*tch.”
“What? A horn? Hey, no matter how much you say it, what kind of habit are you talking to seniors!”
I quickly left the building, leaving behind the rampaging vegetable kite on her path.
I was on my way to buy stockings to protect Ji Ye-won’s self-esteem.
– Woo woo woo woo.
When I took out my smartphone due to the sudden vibration, someone called me with the phrase ‘Caller ID display restricted’.
‘Who are you?’
The question did not last long. I can count on one hand the people in this world who will call me, and only one of them will hide my number.
As soon as I pressed the call button, I called the name.
“Chief Chaeryeong Min?”
As I called that name, a familiar voice rang through the phone.
-Yes, it’s me. How did you find out right away?
“The only person I can contact is the team leader, even while hiding his number from me. What are you calling for?”
– Progress report. From there once. What happened to Ji Ye-won?
“Ji Ye-won has been secured. How was the team leader?”
-Are you talking about the place to hide Ji Ye-won? This one is also solved There is a safe house owned by the chairman of the Hansung Group near the Green House, and I just got permission to use it. It would be nice if we could use the guard facility, but the other crew would notice.
The less people know about Ji Ye-won, the better. That’s why she must have rented a facility owned by an outsider, not a security guard.
Hansung Group is one of the leading conglomerates in Korea. If it was a safe house owned by the president of the company, the security would be reliable.
-I plan to return home early on Monday morning. I’m off work all day that day, so I’ll go there right away. In the meantime, you and Soyeon are taking good care of each other. Is Ji Ye-won a bit cooperative?
“Fortunately, we are cooperative. At least, that cooperation almost went overboard.”
– What does that mean?
I explained to Min Chae-ryeong about her situation so far. She seemed to just listen to the part where Chae-yeon took out her handcuffs and entered her motel, but after hearing about her trolling after that, she couldn’t hold back her laughter almost every time she finished talking.
-Ahahahahaha! So, are you on your way to the convenience store? Buy stockings?
“Yes. I really need it, so what?”
-Be careful not to buy a strange misunderstanding.
“What is misunderstanding? At best, they would think of it as running errands for their older sister or younger sister. Do you have anything more to say? I’m going to the convenience store soon.”
-No, that’s fine. Now that I have contacted you, I have to contact Soyeon. Good job then.
After hanging up the phone, I entered the convenience store and headed straight to the stocking display.
‘I thought it was an XL size.’
It was the first time I knew that stockings had sizes. I thought I could wear anything because it’s a material that stretches well, but I guess it’s not.
“It’s 4,000 won.”
Contrary to Min Chaeryeong’s worries, the clerk didn’t show any interest in me. It was a natural reaction. A part-time job at a convenience store, tired of boring work, doesn’t pay attention to what customers buy.
After successfully purchasing stockings, I headed straight to the studio.
‘What the hell is this all about?’
Suddenly, a sense of skepticism came over me. To think that he was leisurely buying stockings at a convenience store when his life was at stake. It was ironic.
What’s so important about a stocking?
No matter how much the Heavenly Demon of Pleasure is a psycho, there is absolutely no way that just one stocking can cause a tremendous butterfly effect-.
-Titling!
