Episode 460
“Ah, sister.”
Jaehyung Lee called his one and only older sister.
“How did you manage to come here? “I thought you wouldn’t come because you were very busy right after your business trip.”
“Shouldn’t I have a day off too?”
Lee Jae-hyung shrugged his shoulders at Lee Jae-hee’s words.
“I think it might be a bit far to come to Busan to rest…”
The place they were at was one of Busan’s ports. This place was full of container boxes, and no civilians were walking around, and only a few people could be seen because of logistics. Thanks to the unique salty smell of the sea, the scent of blood is masked and the screams suppressed by the sound of the waves are also hidden.
These two were people who knew very well the advantages of this port location.
“Did Jaeheon come after seeing it?”
“Then I saw it. “He was sleeping so soundly that I couldn’t wake him up.”
“Looks like you’re really tired. “You’re sleeping even though your sister came to visit you.”
“Don’t bother the youngest too much. I am a child who was raised in a greenhouse, so I must have been surprised by this incident. “You should also try to be a little considerate.”
“Even though the flower in the greenhouse went out and started messing with us without our knowledge?”
Jaehyung Lee wrinkled his face exaggeratedly and snorted.
“There was no separate contractor in Majang-dong who cut things with a knife, but when you dig up the back, nothing comes out. “It is not a skill that can be learned by killing one or two people, so it is true that there was an accident, but the results of the investigation are always negative.”
“I didn’t know the youngest had a talent for concealment. Well, seeing as it’s only been recently that he’s shown his personality, does he clearly have a talent for hiding it? If I pushed towards impressionism, wouldn’t it have been worth it to be an actor?”
“No, it’s not just something to look at as cute, right? It was handled so cleanly that it wasn’t caught on our children’s information network, so there was only one person? That said, I received a brief report every month on how he was living. “But it didn’t work.”
Lee Jae-hee narrowed her eyes at Lee Jae-hyung’s joke. It was an attitude of treating the other person as very cute.
“Is it because you’re scared of your little brother like that? That’s why I told you to harass me moderately. Then, I wouldn’t have to worry about when a knife will stick in my back like I do now.”
“That’s not it….”
“It’s an unexpected talent. But it’s still cute. “Isn’t that enough?”
“…What a cute piece of shit….”
Lee Jae-hyung looked fed up at the chairman’s words.
He also had something called common sense. I knew that it was crazy to think that my younger brother, who looked like a well-trained butcher, was cute. Even when and how the younger brother killed the person and disposed of the traces was still unknown.
‘It’s not strange that I’m on guard.’
Anyway, this guy’s house. I felt like I knew why Jaeheon Lee became independent as soon as he got older.
“Anyway, if I had known it would be like this, I would have connected you with the industry sooner, so I’m sorry. You didn’t tell us what you liked and hid it from us just to keep an eye on us. “It’s all because it bothered me so much when I was young.”
“…It’s true that I noticed it, but what is it… ha… I don’t know…”
Lee Jae-hyung scratched his head.
“It looks like we have a share as well.”
It would be funnier if I didn’t admit it at this point.
Lee Jae-hyung admitted that they were largely to blame for Lee Jae-heon being as strangely crooked as he is now. It’s just that Lee Jae-hyung’s heart was shaken by the twist in a slightly different direction than he had expected.
Even though he was crooked, I thought he was a sincere old man and a crazy person who enjoyed tormenting his employees. I had no idea that he would completely act it all out and become a murderer who secretly kills people. When I was young, I don’t think I particularly saw that lack of character, but maybe I hid that too?
Seeing Jaehyung Lee’s shy appearance, Jaehee Lee smiled and covered her mouth with her hand.
“What kind of people are we?” “Jaehyung.”
“Why are you stepping out?”
“I stopped him every time. “Stop bothering me.”
“That’s true, Mr. Lee, but…”
Lee Jae-hyung was joking and Lee Jae-heon was making a fuss. Lee Jae-hee, who witnessed it as he passed by, smiled as usual and said, ‘Don’t bother the youngest, Jae-hyung. ‘When will you grow up?’ Disappearing one after another while doing so was their daily routine as children.
“You didn’t strongly stop me either.”
“So does that mean I should have spent all my energy trying to stop my pathetic little brothers?”
“…Not really.”
“yes?”
“yes.”
Jaehyung Lee obediently bent down.
‘You bastard.’
The youngest, Lee Jae-heon, was an exception, but originally Lee Jae-hyung and Lee Jae-hee were anxious because they couldn’t eat each other. This was because, unlike the youngest, who had been acting stupid from a very young age, they knew that they could rise to greater heights by preying on and oppressing each other. I also knew that the one who was eaten would have to be captured for the rest of his life.
It meant mortgaging all of his honor and pride, and Lee Jae-hyung hated that. Even though I hated him so much, I couldn’t beat Lee Jae-hee. Even though he fought with all his might, it was Lee Jae-hyung who always lost.
“…I just meant that we could be a little more cautious.”
“Be alert. “Jaeheon?”
“He is a guy who has escaped the information network. You never know when or how something will happen. “Right now, he’s satisfied playing with dolls with other guys, but if he doesn’t get enough stimulation, he might even show his teeth at us.”
“Hmm, well.”
Jaehee Lee lightly stroked Jaehyung Lee’s cheek with her finger. When Lee Jae-hyung looked down and pulled his face back, Lee Jae-hee, who enjoyed watching him, smiled and said.
“Behaving funny.”
“What what what? No, more than that, I told you several times not to touch me suddenly like that…! My liver is falling apart! “Are you really doing this because you want to see a director who is doing a good job die of a heart attack?”
“How can people be creatures that die so easily? “Don’t worry.”
She gently lowered her outstretched hand and grabbed Lee Jae-hyung’s shoulder.
“But that’s right. “Jaehyung.”
“yes?”
“For someone who is supposed to be on guard, doesn’t he have a very… satisfied face?”
“….”
Lee Jae-hyung touched my face with a nervous expression.
“…Me?”
“You look happy that we spoiled our youngest child like that.”
“Uh…”
Was that so?
“….”
That might have been the case.
Jaehyung Lee rubbed the back of his neck.
“…Keuhum.”
“Let’s be honest. When I first found out about my youngest’s deviation, I was worried about what I would do if this guy came to bite my neck. “Isn’t it quite satisfying to see him lying so weak in a hospital room?”
“No, if I say that, it makes me seem like a pervert.”
“It’s okay if you don’t deny it. Don’t I know your heart? “I understand everything.”
Jaehee Lee smiled softly and continued.
“Why is that so? Even large wolves that can kill a person in an instant are just as nice and cute as long as they are well-tamed. Of course, since its nature itself is designed to attack people, there may be some anxiety. That’s why the weakness trapped inside a cage is even more endearing.”
“…Are you a pervert?”
“Oh, I was just clearing up the emotional confusion our Jaehyeong was feeling? “He seemed particularly thoughtful today, so my sister just gave him some help.”
“So you’re a pervert?”
“Our director.”
An unusually neat voice.
“You have to go to work.”
“….”
That was a warning.
Lee Jae-hyung straightened his posture and carefully put his hands together.
“I will be self-respectful.”
“Let’s just remember that I am the chairman.”
“That is a fair point.”
Jaehee Lee said, lifting the light shawl wrapped around her shoulders.
“So where is the friend we had an accident with?”
“ah.”
“What did you say your name was?”
Jaehyung Lee still answered Jaehee Lee’s question in a calm manner.
“I think it’s Seong Dae-young.”
“So, did you seek understanding from the industry in advance?”
“I did it as soon as it happened. “It was easy to bring in a writer because we had already said so.”
Lee Jae-heon wanted to connect him with a writer named Song In-myeong, but Lee Jae-hyung did not trust Song In-myeong. Didn’t you witness with your own eyes a perverted bastard hitting on a precious customer without even knowing the subject? Since I still didn’t like it, I told the industry in advance.
So, I thought that if there was a big-time writer who touched Lee Jae-heon, it would be Song In-myeong, but unexpectedly, the wrong guy got caught.
“…Looking at things like this, I wonder if our youngest child has talent in a strange place.”
“okay? “What kind of talent is this?”
“…attracting perverts….”
“That’s quite novel and fun. “Even more so because I don’t think it’s a joke.”
Jaehee Lee laughed and waved her hands as if what Jaehyung Lee said was really interesting.
“How did you do it? “Did you just tie him up?”
“….”
“Jaehyung?”
“…I did try to fix it a little bit in advance.”
“oh.”
Jaehee Lee’s laughter stopped.
“Why don’t you wait for your sister?”
“…I didn’t know you were coming.”
“hmm.”
She blinked slowly and nodded.
“Well, they contacted me too late. “It’s my fault.”
“….”
“Are you hiding?”
“…I guess it will stick?”
“Why am I not sure?”
“Because you didn’t kill him?”
“I understand what you mean.”
Jaehee Lee sighed heavily.
“I didn’t really plan on taking out my anger on myself, so I’ll skip it this time.”
“Oh, don’t you have any thoughts?”
“It’s okay because I think you’ve already enjoyed your share of it. And I also shouldn’t try too hard these days. I recently started doing yoga again, and just doing it gave me strength. After all, you can’t lie about your age.”
“Yeah…”
Lee Jae-hyung wisely refrained from speaking even though he was a person who did not fit in with such weak words. I think he was already upset because I was the only one taking out his anger on him, but in times like this, I had to crawl on my own when the other side showed mercy.
“You also have face, how long are you going to take action yourself? They say you just need to wash it, but look at my father. If you smell too much blood, it’s bound to get on your hands. “We have a corporate image, but if we walk around reeking of blood, what will happen to our stock price?”
“…Wasn’t this incident too big to save face?”
“…That’s also true.”
To Lee Jae-hyung and Lee Jae-hee, the youngest brother was a bit affectionate.
“Is there any blood left to spill on that weak child?”
It was stupid and stupid, and now I know it was all an act, but I also know that it was honest to some extent. In a family that only saw each other as rivals ready to bite each other, he was the only child who celebrated his family’s birthdays. I don’t know where such a soft and weak child came from.
Lee Jae-hyung nodded as if he also agreed.
“As soon as I became an adult, I took a paternity test for Lee Jae-heon.”
“My mother’s expression at that time was spectacular. Ah, it’s funny even thinking about it now.”
“I thought it was definitely something I picked up from under a bridge, but how absurd is it when they say this is my real brother? “Didn’t you?”
“How can you be so suspicious when the faces of the Lee family are all there?”
“You just need to fix the skin on your face.”
“Anyway, it’s weird.”
While chatting about trivial things, the two winked at the men who were waiting. Then, several men came forward and dragged a bright red piece of meat.
Jaehee Lee looked at that and narrowed her eyes.
“Oh, I really enjoyed it.”
“….”
“Didn’t you say that your breath is still there?”
“…Uh…”
When Jaehee Lee saw the doctor, the man with a pale face shook his head in shock. Lee Jae-hyung looked at my sister when she noticed that she had already died a long time ago.
“…sorry.”
“You said you forgave me, so why do you keep apologizing? “Then I guess I’ll have to clean it up first.”
“Do you have any thoughts?”
“Wouldn’t it be even weirder if you had no idea about the meat that was completely cold?”
“Well, that’s true, but…”
Lee Jae-hyung, who was embarrassed, gestured to the men.
“Clean it up after yourself. Since I’m from the industry, it won’t be revealed to the public even if I don’t clean it up very cleanly. “If that’s the case, it would be okay if I asked for permission and threw it in the fish farm I used last time.”
“I will handle it that way.”
Jiik jikjiik….
A long dark red mark was left where the meat was dragged.
“…Can I smoke one?”
“That’s right, Director.”
“thank you.”
Cheeik.
It’s been a while since I started a fire myself.
“…Whoa….”
Smoke spread through the sky and into the night.
It’s white.
“….”
The air is cold.
The scent of the sea is sticky and the lights of the port obscure both the stars and the moon. There were times when I felt dizzy when I thought that everything was hidden in such a bright place. Even though everything is familiar.
The air is like that. The air filled with cigarette smoke. Should it extend upward and sideways or downward?
“….”
“Are you happy?”
To those words,
“Jaehyung.”
“….”
“Are you happy?”
Wow.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. ah? Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Oh right.
My ears hurt. Noisily crushing, breaking, coming together, tearing, making noise, coming together, making my head explode. My heart screamed as if it was going to burst, and the scream penetrated my brain, making me feel distant and thrilled. That’s right. That’s right. That’s right.
Smile and show your teeth.
“…It’s fun.”
The world where the smoke has disappeared is clear.
