It’s been an hour ago since Seungcheol called to Jeonghan, saying that he’s with Celine and they are on their way back to the mansion. That lessened the panic among them, especially Minghao who blamed himself for leaving Celine’ side again. However, he soon realized that this maybe the best way to protect him.He knew now that Joshua secured Celine in advance. Now what left is to find a way to locate the leader of the organization.The clue they have is the letter that Jeonghan brought. It says that to save Joshua, Celine needs to come alone with the document that her father left.‘But where and how did Jeonghan got the letter?’ Minghao had his suspicion.He looked at the newly appointed second leader of the HongYoonChoi.Jeonghan is sitting beside him, currently gaping at a certain direction. Curious to where his disgust look was for, Minghao followed his gaze and then found Almond and Eugene.The two are together at the corner.“Are you really sure you feel okay now?” Almond asked,
Kloper did not close the window of his car as he drives back home. The cool breeze in the atmosphere gently touched his skin. It made him feel strangely calm and good. Once in a while, he glanced up to see the clouds in the sky changed their color with huge color palate of violet and blues merging together with the passage time as the morning continues to envelope above. From the window, he could see the dark colored mountains, crinkled from the top, covered in mist. Driving back home after visiting the tombstone of his old friend, somehow it felt like he came from a wonderland sanctuary. He had the moment of quiet reflection on a task well achieved. It was this moment he sensed an inner peace that can only come of being best self. Is it because he came there with Groid? Or was it because of Fredd who shared the the last words that Freea told him before everyone was left broken? One thing for sure, he thinks he can make a plan accordingly to what his friends wanted him to do. Kl
The internet was flooded with news of Woozi’s report during the live forecast. It spread quickly, like a virus, and affected the citizens’ beliefs. Those who supported the Governor finally turned their backs and were disgusted to trust the man. They could just not believe that they almost vote an evil guy like him as the new ruler of the country. People initiated the government and the police to investigate the case. Many hashtags trended online, such as: #don’t_hide_the-truth #putShiminJail, #No_to_drug_pusher_as_president, #The_clown_of_the_Century, #Woozi_The_new_hero, etc… Because of this, all effort to bury the case went futile. “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!” Governor Shim will be heard inside his room. He was breaking anything he sees after the news spread unstoppable. “S-Sir,” his aide murmured. “We were clearly reassured that they won’t air the news. However, the news anchor said those despite receiving the warn.” “WHO IS THAT BASTARD AGAIN?!” “Woozi Lee.” Catching his
Celine’s POVI stood in front of an underground parking entrance. It was heavily blocked off with chains. However, it was still accessible.My hand reached of the metals. Dingle dangles sounds were created as I made my own way in. The rusty smell of the chains reached into my nose, and it wasn’t pleasant. My hand felt dirty and dusty, yet I knew it isn’t the time to think about cleanliness.Finally, I entered the space. The moment I walked in, it was like diving into water. Sound stops and the entire place is at constant 14 degree Celsius with a slight breeze passing through. It started to get deeper and colder as I walked in the dim.Part of myself was thinking about turning around, because actually, it wasn’t easy to be to here now that I know I’m alone.‘But I can’t change my mind.’ I took a deep breath.Hoo.Then I walked again. Continuing, I saw some grassy shrub in various parts of the parking lot that are somewhat overgrown. That means this was abandoned for a long time ago.G
Celine’s POV Through the cellphone he’s holding, he showed me the video where Joshua and Jeonghan are together. “Now that you see this, give me that damn document,” he asked, pointing these papers in my hand. If Jeonghan finally arrived at Joshua’s side, then the plan is going smoothly. All I need to do is to steal more time so Jeonghan can make a way for escape. ‘30 minutes will do? Right?’ “What are you waiting for?! You already see that he’s alive! Come on and give me that!” he started to be impatient. Just like what I promised, I put the fire out of the lighter. Everyone then sighed in relief, as if they thought they can handle me starting from now on. I threw the brown envelope to his side, there near his shoes. As soon as I threw it, I sensed the movements of the men surrounding my side. Either they’ll kill me or hold me captive. Therefore, I began to execute my 2nd plan. “Only half of the documents are there,” I said. They stopped. The man who’s picking up the paper
Third Person’s POV Six hours ago before Celine went to the underground parking lot… Wonwoo heard about the incident a little too late. He couldn’t believe that the someone invaded the Hong mansion and even abducted the new leader.Well, Joshua made decisions which surprised many. No doubts that there are people inside the organization who will fight back against the tyrant ruler. However…‘Abducted? That clever man will get abducted?’ Wonwoo can’t imagine who the hell outsmarted a guy like Joshua. But besides that, his deepest concern is his little sister. Joshua is missing, then how about Celine?It’s clear that the enemies main target is her. And so, Wonwoo quickly took his way to the mansion.With swift paces, almost running, Wonwoo arrived at the entrance. There, he bumped into someone who had the same reason for coming.Mingyu and Wonwoo looked at each other.Both was catching their breaths.If today is just an usual meeting, Wonwoo might be teasing him right now. However, the
“Joshua was what?!” Junhui shouted as soon as he heard that the leader of HongYoonChoi was abducted. The information doesn’t sink in. All this time, he’s been trying to defeat the clever man who looks formidable. So if someone like him was abducted that easily… “That makes me look like an idiot,” Junhui murmured. “Yes,” Dokyeom agreed, nodding his head. He blinked his eyes upon realizing his mistake. “Huh? Idiot? Why master?” Instead of entertaining his idiot servant, Junhui fell into deep thoughts. ‘No. Joshua is not like that. He maybe planned for this,’ he believed. According to Kelly Park, their next move is to get Celine and take the documents left by her mother. She told him those while under the Gilge drug. Therefore, if their target is Celine, why did they capture the new leader of the HongYoonChoi? “Did you say before that Governor Shim asked for some members of HongYoonChoi as soon as the Wen abandoned him?” Junhui asked Dokyeom. “Ah yes!” Dokyeom answered. “Shim me
Murgine felt the burning ache in his stomach that almost wiped out all of his thoughts. He was stabbed and surprised how sharp the pain was, and also how a single thrust, but deep into him, deep in his muscle can cause this great agony. ‘I will die like this?’ He looked at the camera above, thinking when will help would come. “Sh*t!” But all he could do was curse. It will be his end. He knew that. Murgine finally reached the leg of the chair by crawling onto the floor. He leaned his back there and checked his shirt. Blood seeped through it. He lifted his shirt to see the condition of his stomach and saw the hole with uneven chunks of flesh laid disorderly in the wound, and the dark crimson thick liquid gushing out from the center. His heart clutched in pain. Murgine pressed his wound so that the blood won’t seep out but that was futile. “Argh!” he groaned. He was so angry and disappointed. This is how he felt when he lose from the paintball game. He planned so hard, and saw
