452. A certain young man 1
“….”
“{It was a bit… out of the blue, right? Hahaha….}”
As silence passed through the room, the kongdol couldn’t stand the awkwardness and smiled awkwardly.
“{What am I saying again?}”
Kang Seung-hyun replied with a face that was nothing.
“{Because you kept fussing unnecessarily, I finally asked you to take care of a person you don’t like.}” “{Did you wait for
me to ask you to do that?}”
“{If not, I was wondering if there’s something worth worrying about. It’s a pity that it’s not.}”
“{Is it regrettable…}”
It was a mindset that Kim Ho-jung, a human with an ordinary personality, could not understand.
“{So why are you suddenly curious about that? Did Mr. Alec make you ask?}”
“{Ah no!}”
The thug jumped up and shook his head, then immediately lay down on the sofa.
“{Because I think it will work now…}” “
{Now?}”
“{Honestly… I never imagined that there would be a formal party that would accept a monster like me as a companion.}”
Kang Seung-hyun and temporary companion Although Kim Ho-jeong met several people and organized a party even after finishing “Wonderful Life”, he still had to hide his ability for the black beast.
Kang Seung-Hyun understood his peculiarities, but there was no guarantee that others would do the same.
“{However, our party will say that even if I die and come back to life as a monster and lose my temper in that state, I will do that. And then, even if you stay in a monster state for a while, you don’t feel bad.}” “
{Instead of feeling bad, there seem to be a couple of guys who like their monster state more than when they are human.}” Perhaps
because of Kang Seung-hyun’s personality, the center of the party, the party members are united. Kim Ho-jung, who had dangerous powers because he was a bit out of the way, was able to be at ease at this party.
“{Thank you so much for accepting someone like me.}”
“{Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to say that to someone other than me.}” “
{Of course I should! But Mr. Kang is first.}”
Hwaaaak!
At the same time as he said that, black smoke wrapped around Kkongdol’s body and returned to the human form of Kim Ho-jung.
“huh? Why do you look like that?”
“I really don’t feel anything. I came back as a person.”
“what? really?”
Kim Ho-jeong smiled brightly and looked at her hand.
Instead of black paws, there were apricot-colored palms.
“I’m glad… I was worried that you might not come back this time forever.”
“If you don’t worry about unnecessary things, you’ll be back sooner.”
“But that doesn’t work out.”
Kim Ho-jeong muttered this and sat up.
“Oh, but how far did you talk?”
“Forgetfulness, forgetting what you just said. Red flags of health.”
“iced coffee! for a moment! I remember!”
But somehow the story was leaking the other way.
To compare Kim Ho-jung’s eloquence to driving, all you have to do is simply step on it, but suddenly turn the steering wheel to make a U-turn.
“That’s why Mr. Kang is a great benefactor to me, but I’ve always felt sorry for him because I only get help.”
‘To be honest, I have more memories of pampering Kim Ho-jeong than helping him.’
“…Didn’t you say that Baek Seon-ho was Mr. Kang’s former colleague?”
“It was. Now, though, the kid has gone a little crazy.”
Kang Seung-hyun recalled what had happened earlier with a calm face.
Originally, Baek Seon-ho had a uniquely poor mentality even within the strike, so I expected that if they met again, he would not be in a normal state, so I wasn’t that surprised.
“It is said that something happened to the two of them that caused them to fall apart, but from my point of view, the relationship didn’t seem that bad.”
Kim Ho-jung hesitated for a moment, then continued talking.
“It’s different from us.”
Needless to ask, it would mean Kim Ho-jung, Alec, and their former colleague, Shin Yu-jun.
“I don’t remember anything, but I know that Yu-Jun committed an unforgivable sin. Even if I forgive you in the first place, Cheolhyun will not forgive Yujun… so we won’t be able to go back to the past.”
A hint of bitterness came out of Kim Ho-jung’s voice.
It was because Shin Yu-jun was one of Kim Ho-jung’s first party members.
‘It’s not an ordinary party, it’s a party made up of very precious colleagues who came along saying they would go with them when they were abandoned from the group for unfair reasons.’
But at the same time, because he was the one who destroyed the precious party, Ho-jung Kim could not miss Yu-jun Shin.
“But it’s not Mr. Kang’s side. Is there something wrong?”
“The case is different from Shin Iko Pass.”
“Shin Iko Pass… Anyway, if Seon-ho Baek committed a really big sin, Mr. Kang wouldn’t have let it go.”
Kang Seung-hyun There is no such thing as a kind and affectionate sentence like ‘I look after you because I am a friend’ in the dictionary.
Rather, ‘I trusted you, but I can’t pass it? It’s a shameful sin.’
“More than anything else, I can see that both Mr. Kang and Seon-ho Baek still regard each other as friends… I hope the two of them can get along again like before.”
“I think it will be possible if he comes to his senses.”
Kim Ho-jeong hesitated and continued talking.
“So… I’ll do anything I can to help. Until now, I have always received help from Mr. Kang.”
“I would appreciate it if you could help me. I don’t remember ever helping Kim Ho-jung.”
Kang Seung-hyun still thinks that he is a person who does not remember helping others and only remembers being helped by others.
“But what does this have to do with wondering about my life on Earth?”
I heard Kim Ho-jung’s mindset that he didn’t want them to follow the same line because he remembered himself and Alec Shin Yu-jun after seeing the relationship between Kang Seung-hyun and Baek Seon-ho, but it was a story that had nothing to do with the conclusion.
“That’s why… I suddenly thought of that when I decided to help Mr. Kang.”
“What do you think?”
“I really don’t know anything about Mr. Kang…”
It’s been three years since the dimension movers came to the Azul continent.
Regardless, Kim Ho-jeong is Kang Seung-hyun’s first colleague and the person with whom he has been in a relationship for the longest period of time, but Kim Ho-jeong knew very little about Kang Seung-hyun’s life on Earth.
The reason is that Kang Seung-hyeon rarely talked about his time in Korea.
The information Kim Ho-jung knows is that he lives in Incheon, that he likes fried rice with shrimp and eats it often, that he has a driver’s license, that he likes the sea rather than mountains, and that his favorite drama is ‘Dexter’ and so on.
At this level, it is no different from other colleagues whom I have just met.
“I actually thought… the reason Mr. Kang didn’t tell me about his former colleagues was that something bad happened and he didn’t want to talk about it.”
Kim Ho-jeong even heard that Kang Seung-hyun met a new colleague after ending his temporary companionship and made a party.
But I didn’t hear what happened to make the party, what kind of people the party members were, or why the party disbanded and I was alone again.
So, although Kim Ho-jeong was curious about Kang Seung-hyun’s former colleagues and their stories, he deliberately didn’t ask any more because he thought Kang would be uncomfortable.
Kim Ho-jung also experienced heartbreaking party disbanding countless times.
“But looking at it this time, I realized it was my mistake.”
Although it is true that the party was disbanded for some reason, it was not an atmosphere of resentment or hatred between Kang Seung-hyun and Baek Seon-ho.
Rather, even though they hadn’t met for nearly a year, they were still as close as if they met yesterday, and both of them even showed their side of thinking about each other.
“I knew then. The reason why the teacher didn’t bring up the story of his former colleagues wasn’t because he was uncomfortable, but he said he didn’t do it because he had no particular reason to do it…” ”
You know that now?”
Kang Seung-hyun replied as if he was full of energy.
I thought that knowing what type of person I was after seeing him for such a long time was a skill.
“Usually you brag about that first.”
“Of course, Kim Ho-jung didn’t ask, so I didn’t tell you.”
“You have perseverance…”
No matter how much the other person doesn’t ask, they wouldn’t tell you that you’re close friends with the No.
Kim Ho-jeong smiled shyly and continued.
“I thought that the reason Mr. Kang didn’t talk about his life in Korea was because he didn’t want to talk about it much, but that wasn’t the case.”
I came to know about living in Incheon naturally when Kim Ho-jung asked me about restaurants near my house while talking.
Having a driver’s license meant that it would be difficult to ride the subway when going back and forth between Incheon and Seoul.
The fact that he likes the sea more than the mountains is what Kim Ho-jung said while talking about his hometown and mentioning the sea.
“I just didn’t tell you because I didn’t ask.”
“It’s not something I can’t say, but I didn’t ask, but it wasn’t something I had to say.”
“So I want to ask you. I don’t think I really know what kind of person Mr. Kang is.”
In the end, the story went around and around for a while, but it came back to its place.
“How did Mr. Kang live in Korea?”
However, if there is a difference, it is that this time, the question was asked in the form of a human Kim Ho-jung, not a black beast.
“Well, to be honest, I don’t think it’s very different from when I lived here. It’s the same if you include earning money by treating others, reading books, exercising when you have time, and eating food you order.”
Hearing those words, Kang Seung-hyun seemed to be living a healthy life in the Azul Continent.
“But if there’s one thing different, it’s that when I was living in Korea, there was no one like Ho-Jung Kim who I could open my heart to.”
“Uh…”
“I told you. I didn’t trust anyone until I came to Azul.”
“And your family too?”
“yes. There’s no such thing as siblings…”
Kang Seung-hyun smiled and continued.
“Both of my parents died when I was young.”
“…!”
The moment he heard that, Kim Ho-jung’s face crumpled up to the point of crying at once.
‘Aaaaaaaa! Somehow, I thought it was strange that Mr. Kang never said that he missed his family or anything like that!’
Because I couldn’t imagine not having a family.
“Sorry! I said useless things…”
At the same time, 50,000 thoughts passed through Kim Ho-jung’s head.
‘Everything had a reason… There was a reason!’
Kang Seung-hyeon is a young boy who is envious of children his age who walk happily holding hands with their parents.
Young Kang Seung-hyeon, no matter how high he gets in school, is still gossiped about as a child with no parents or looked at with sympathy.
‘Mr. Kang has become cold and distrustful of others since childhood to survive alone in a harsh world…!’
The moment Kim Ho-jung tries to think of Kang Seung-hyun’s tearful past.
“Hahahaha…”
Kang Seung-hyun laughed lightly as if he could clearly see through Kim Ho-jung’s true intentions, and continued.
“Mr. Kim Ho-jeong. I said I had no parents, but I never said I had no money at home.”
“…huh?”
“You know Seoul Hospital A, right?”
“uh. know. It’s so big and famous.”
“The chairman there is my grandfather.”
“….”
Unfortunately, Kang Seung-hyun’s personality was just innate.
