Episode 362:
After sending off the sea defense group.
Jin Cheon-hee spent some time alone.
‘It’s exhausting as expected.’
Of course, giving treatment is not an easy task, but what is even more difficult is dealing with people.
This was something that happened often on Earth as well.
Treating people means that you have to keep meeting them.
In essence, it is difficult for someone who hates people themselves to become a good doctor.
Patients with various circumstances and their caregivers with various personalities.
Political situation within the country.
Should I treat patients who will be helpful to my thesis first, or should I prioritize patients who need this treatment right away?
Existing drugs that are covered by insurance and new drugs that are not covered by insurance but have fewer side effects.
I had to make choices again and again at many crossroads.
The responsibility for that choice was also the responsibility of the doctor in charge.
‘It’s not much different here either.’
In any case, the fact remains that dealing with humans is more difficult than treating them.
What’s better about Hyundai is that they don’t stab people to give up patients.
‘Oh, there was one. Such an enemy.’
There was a time when the family went to extreme lengths to fight to obtain the patient’s legacy.
The elderly patient had Alzheimer’s disease.
The children fought to protect each other in front of their father.
In the end, the police came to see it.
‘Is he also human?’
The interesting thing is that none of the children truly wanted the patient to get better.
For them, their father had to be terminally ill.
And when my father came back to his senses, he refused life-sustaining treatment, saying he wanted to die as soon as possible.
As a doctor, I had to go through a lot of agony at that time.
It was like that.
A doctor’s job is to treat people’s illnesses and help them survive.
People live in many inseparable relationships, so there are times when it is difficult to receive ordinary treatment.
‘Gong Yoo-bing’s thing is now a problem.’
Thanks to Jin Cheon-hee’s timely intervention, the blood mission had to give up all the blood poisoners and dead bodies they had caught.
But, ‘I can’t eat this or that, so there’s nothing I can do about it.’ If they say so and go back, they are not blood missionaries.
Now everyone in Jeongsama is aware of her deteriorating appearance.
As befits his nickname, ‘Fighting Goeya Goe (怪)’, he can take care of his own body, but his young granddaughter, who has not learned martial arts, will not be able to bear it.
Now, Gong Gongbing is either walking around wearing a human skin mask for the rest of his life, or he is kidnapped somewhere by Jeongsama and is being used as a threat to commit suicide.
If you are unlucky, a warrior who has a silver lining may end up killing you.
This means that the body has been cured, but the patient’s reality begins now.
The thing that Tugoi fears the most and wants to avoid has become a reality.
‘I think it would be better to ask him to get a job at Baekrin Uigak instead?’
Gong Gongbing plays a minor role in the novel where he dies quickly, so his screen time is less than that of Tugoi.
I don’t know what her specialty is.
Baekrin Uigak has a system to protect the family.
If Tugwe gets a job, public ice can also be protected.
No matter how much of a madman he is, there is no answer if he entrusts himself to a large family just to wash his face.
‘It’s okay if you hide it in the closet.’
If I teach him reverse magic and change his appearance over a period of 5 years, or if I have a doctor change his appearance little by little and last for 5 years, I am confident that no matter how much I try, I will not be able to find him.
‘But… the question is whether Tugoi will accept it.’
Once you are in Uigak, it is no longer possible to steal.
Of course, there may be some secret borrowing(?) of items, but that would only be an ‘unofficial’ business.
The official job would be to handle transport-related tasks such as escorting patients and transporting medicines.
‘Thank you for us, right?’
Among the patients, even those in their 60s, are full of people, so there are many difficulties in transporting them.
Since they can’t attack Baekrin’s Pavilion directly, they aim to transport patients.
However, what happens if there is a throw that evenly attacks the mid-air treadmill?
‘…okay. This is a martial arts drone.’
From human motors to human drones!
I have no intention of starting an industrial revolution in a world where energy and the five elements exist.
Isn’t this a world where humans are much more efficient than coal?
‘But you should officially stop stealing, but I don’t know if it’s okay… Uhm.’
Do you think it would be okay to gently flirt with her while talking about her granddaughter?
Then, the patient’s safety can be protected….
‘The way of thieves is important….’
* * *
“Of course it’s good! On the contrary, I agree.”
“yes?”
Before Jin Cheon-hee had finished speaking, Tou-goi immediately answered.
“You can no longer work as a thief…”
“…officially. But it doesn’t matter, right? “I was the one who stole Dalgi’s notes from the shaman faction last time.”
“Phew!”
Jin Cheon-hee spit out the tea she was eating.
Cluck cluck.
I asked after coughing for a while.
“You said Tugoi stole it?”
At that time, when I stole ‘that item’ related to Dalgi from the shaman, the teacher calmly said this.
-Samjeolchuho gave me a lot of help. He and his friends’ friends were very helpful.
Did Samjeolchuho’s friend or friend’s friend commit suicide?
Jin Cheon-hee was embarrassed and muttered for a long time.
‘Wow, Gangho is so wide yet narrow.’
This is how a mystery from the past was solved.
Well, even though it was a time when the shaman faction was out there, it would have taken a lot of effort to steal even one piece of treasure.
What’s scarier is that they didn’t even know it was stolen after they stole it.
Even back then, Samjeolchuho’s sister’s network was considerable. Indeed, the ‘friend of a friend’ among ronin people is scary.
…I ended up thinking that.
I had no idea that it was connected to the Muyeong Battle.
She continued.
“Hyeollin… No, there was an old benevolence with Baekrin in the past. Samjeolchuho was so anxious to find his younger brother that he helped him several times. Isn’t stealing a specialty? The hardest thing is after stealing. “I heard that white phosphorus would also take care of it, so it wasn’t impossible.”
“…I see… I see.”
She continued speaking calmly.
“As I grew older by stealing, I thought about a lot of things. What is Tao? “Even though this monster was a lowly thief, he had pride.”
“What kind of pride is this?”
“It is the pride of someone who covets things but does not covet people’s lives. Isn’t it the job of Yangsanggunja (an old idiom referring to a person hiding on a pillar; a noble term for a thief) like us to take out items that are stored in the secret room and covered in dust? “In the process, very few people got their hands dirty.”
She also did not commit murder at all.
It seems that there were times when people sprayed water when they felt like they were going to die.
However, it was a small number that could be counted on ten fingers.
They usually gave up things, but rarely killed people.
“If I officially give up the task of fighting, Sajo will be the flagship. They say they have abandoned the way of thieves. However, I thought that if Master had heard, he would have said something different. “Baby.”
“….”
A small tea room.
The sound of wind chimes rattles along with the wind.
In a little silence.
It felt like the tea room was crowded with only two people in it.
Tugoi said while feeling a deep sense of tea.
“It can be said that a Yangsang gentleman is the way to move objects and objects. “If you look at it broadly, moving people from person to person and moving medicine from medicine to medicine can be said to have the same thing.”
She smiled.
“Of course, after five years, if my granddaughter grows up and wants to leave Uigak, then she will be able to leave this place with her. Maybe… it could remain. However, if it is just 5 years. okay.”
She narrowed her eyes.
The face was clearly that of a young man, but the eyes were those of an old warrior.
Those eyes were shining brilliantly.
“…If that’s the case, it would be nice to be with you as an empty guest.”
An empty guest.
On Earth, it is a system that has existed since the Warring States Period.
There was an act in which powerful people gave food and money as guests, even if they were poor guests.
Of course, these empty-nesters usually don’t work and play around, but when the time comes, they do the work even at the cost of their lives.
A famous historical story is the Guemyeonggudo (鷄鳴狗盜) by Maeng Sang-gun during the Warring States Period.
Literally translated, it means a thief who is good at making chicken and dog noises.
In fact, it seems that among Maeng Sang-gun’s guests, there was one who was good at making chickens and dogs cry.
While Maeng Sang-gun was working under the King of Jin, things didn’t go well and he was in danger of dying.
My life was saved thanks to this customer who is good at making chicken and dog noises.
‘Are you saying that a guest who makes dog noises used the dog noises to steal the king’s leather clothes and gave them to his mistress to get free, and while he was running away, a guest who made chicken noises helped him?’
When I loudly imitated the sound of a dawn rooster, the official thought it was a rooster crowing and opened the gate.
I guess they said they were able to escape the gate thanks to that.
The names of the people related to the countries are slightly different.
As is the martial arts world, there are the same idioms and guest system here as well.
Since its origin, officials and powerful families have also been frequent guests.
There was also a tradition of inviting guests like this in large, powerful clans and families.
However, perhaps for somewhat secular reasons, it was difficult for religiously rooted factions such as Gupailbang to implement it.
Instead, clan-centered sects such as the Paldae Sega, and large mid-level sects based on the country or business regardless of religion, are actively using the guest guest system.
As it turned out.
I hear the sound of an expert, but I have no particular affiliation.
However, it was not a situation where there was any ambition to become a strongman, but there were often cases where people who seemed useful ended up as empty guests.
“Of course… if you let this ghost in as an empty guest, other clans won’t stay still.”
She opened her mouth with difficulty.
What does the name Tugoi mean in Gangho?
And it may be because the sect that accepted the attack as an empty guest knows what it means.
Jin Cheonhee calmly nodded.
“The roots of this temple are not so weak that they can be shaken by that. “If I’m shaken by that, it’s just my shortcomings.”
Jin Cheon-hee was lost in thought, then smiled and added a word.
“I know that there are quite a few treasures that have been sold, but I also know that there are many new items that have not yet leaked out.”
“These are things you can’t pay for. “If you go outside of a strong lake, a bloody storm will blow.”
Treasure of non-class elixir.
To a certain extent, it may be possible to sell it as stolen property, but if it is an item that causes a lot of bloodshed, it becomes difficult to dispose of it as stolen property.
The Golden King of Geumhyeolbang is crazy about money.
However, I also had the self-control to ruthlessly refuse if the management cost was more than the money I could earn.
Also, there is no need to leak them out in the event of a collapse.
It was also because of his aesthetic as a thief.
Because she was a thief, not a bloodthirsty.
“Yes, I think you should return them to the owners of each sect.”
“I don’t know if you can wash your hands with that.”
Jin Cheonhee nodded.
“After that, I’ll let Baekrin’s office take care of it.”
It was bizarre.
When this young man smiled with his blue eyes, it seemed like everything was going to be okay.
‘okay. That’s probably why medicine and madness coexist.’
Tugoe really liked this young man.
Perhaps her path and this young man’s path had many similarities.
Especially the aesthetics.
