Chapter 415: Registration Office?
Chapter 415: Registration Office?
'Even if nine of the ten groups they took in were good, one bad one can cause more problems than it is worth,' Dok-ja knew that he couldn't actually stop Haru's group from going in the direction they wanted, but, 'I should at least look around just in case.' Of course, it isn't that he was suddenly feeling indebted to them or anything like that.
It was just that…
'It would be better to return the score to zero,' Soo-young also thought along those lines, she was sure that her image in Haru's group was negative because of her previous hostility.
And so far there have only been three people who she had talked with. But….
'I can't even understand what the first two are thinking,' Soo-young was thinking about Haru and Hae-in, these two weren't readable at all, and she would die before she took their friendliness at face value.
But it wasn't like she had no proper evidence for her previous thoughts, because…
'The two who made the whole crossing plan possible,' She was thinking about Jin-ah and Alea at this moment, 'Those two have definitely shown caution around me.'
Soo-young had noticed that even if the two didn't show it openly in front of her…
'They are wary of me,' And then there was, 'That one named Sang-ah.' Soo-young had clearly felt her hostility, since the latter didn't even try to hide it.
So, just to be safe she had concluded that in Haru's group, she would most likely not be trusted at this moment, and even if she didn't join them, she would still need to work with them in the future.
This is why she had to return things to zero and then build from there, because as things stand at this moment. There should be no doubt in anyone's mind that Haru's group is the biggest power in Seoul Dome, even with its potential problems.
'All I have to do is weed out some of those problems, and it will be easy thanks to my identity,' Soo-young knew that if there were any groups who were planning on taking advantage of Haru's group, while they were busy fending off the scenarios.
'There would be no reason for them to not include me, someone who has already done it once and failed, if I show them that I am interested as well,' Soo-young could easily sneak in their ranks, and get the info then give it Haru's group, which will make them owe her one.
This is how she will be returning things to zero, so to do this….
'I need to get as much information about the different groups that have entered this current giant group, and mark the troublesome ones,' Both Dok-ja and Soo-young had the same thought, until they got off the truck when they reached the destination.
Hannam The Hill, located in Seong-su-dong, it used to be one of the most expensive areas to buy a house in, costing nearly 7 million USD for an apartment of 243 m2.
This area was specifically used by celebrities and rich families, and was seen as a high-end area only for the wealthy with luxurious facilities that match the price tag.
But given that now, Seoul was in shambles with no governing body whatsoever, this place that was filled with luxury goods also shouldn't be safe. And it was true for the most part, but even then it wasn't humans that this place had to watch out for.
Monsters were roaming around the city destroying everything in sight, so if one was thinking logically this place should also be in ruins at this moment, but...
"How?" Soo-young couldn't help but question that after she got off, "How is this place still in good condition?"
It wasn't that there wasn't any damage done to this place but, it was mostly intact, and more importantly.
"Haha, you should've seen how scared he was because of that,"
"Yeah like how can he get confused between the black wolf and the shadow wolf?"
"It was too funny seeing him panicking though,"
"You're right, haha,"
"Shut up!! Stop making fun of me!!"
"Come on if you lose your cool that easily then you shouldn't go up front, there are plenty of things to do here,"
"N-No I can't, I'll do better,"
"Well, keep at it kid, but maybe don't scare everyone next time,"
She heard this conversation from a group that was passing by, the group didn't seem to know each other well enough and from what they were talking about, Soo-young couldn't help freeze on the spot.
'Damn it, I shouldn't have left them,' Soo-young had already separated from Dok-ja and Gil-young, because she thought she would be able to get information on her own, but so far she had just become more confused.
'They are all living here like nothing is wrong,' She had seen the people just living like the outside world wasn't filled with monsters.
Elderly taking a walk in the park, kids playing in the playground with mothers coming to call them, people walking into apartment buildings, some were even eating at restaurants in the area, some were even laughing as they walked by.
And this calm aura was totally different from what she had seen outside. It was the complete opposite of what it was like before.
"Hmm, are you also from the new group that came in?" Soo-young was brought out of her thoughts by the voice of a man.
"Hmm, well…" Soo-young tried to appear clueless just in case to not look suspicious.
"I see, you must've been lost, it happens a lot with the first timers, it happened to me as well, haha," The good looking man who looked in his early twenties laughed, "I guess I have no choice, I'll guide you around."
"Um, I wouldn't want to trouble you," Soo-young looked awkward, but that was just on the outside.
'Don't tell me…' Soo-young was looking at the smile of this guy that was in front of her.
"Ah, no don't worry about it, I don't mind guiding you around at all, My name is Sung Min-hyuk by the way. Nice to meet you," He introduced himself with an awkward smile, since he forgot to mention his own name before, and understood that she might've made that reaction because of that.
And seeing his face strengthened Soo-young's deduction even further.
'…He has totally fallen for me, hasn't he?' Soo-young smiled on the inside without showing her intention on her face, 'wouldn't want to scare this lamb that came up to help me after all.' This just boasted her confidence to another level, but to be honest. 'I already know that looks are certainly a strong point of mine.'
That is why she was now thinking, 'Maybe I should use it more often?' then it may be easier for her to get what she wanted.
"Umm…" But she was brought out of her thoughts by Min-hyuk, "I am sorry I must've come off as creepy, I'll go… sorry to waste your time." he was about to turn back rubbing his neck with a worried look that he might've given the wrong impression.
"Ah, No…" Soo-young quickly spoke up making the guy stop, "I was surprised since… I haven't come across nice people after that…" she was purposefully speaking like a young naïve woman because the man in front of her seemed to think of her in that way.
"Oh! It must've been tough for you," Min-hyuk seemed to feel sorry for her troubles, and this is what Soo-young wanted.
"Yes, which is why as soon as soon as I heard of this group, I joined leaving the previous one behind," Soo-young said looking troubled and it wasn't hard to guess why.
"I understand your problems, I was in the same situation once," Min-hyuk sighed, thinking back it was a tough time that is why, "I'll tell you how to get started here... if you don't mind that is." He quickly added the ending words just in case.
"…Thank you very much, you really saved me," Soo-young bowed her head a few times to express her gratitude, and…
'Hook, line and sinker….'
"There really isn't any need to do that, I am just interfering needlessly," Min-hyuk spoke waving his hands since Soo-young was being too polite.
"Even then ...thank you," Soo-young looked into his eyes, and she could see him look away with a blush.
'Heh,' She resisted her twitching lips that were about to make a smug smile, because this guy was finally about to get to the point.
"Then let's go to the Registration Office first," Min-hyuk said and Soo-young looked confused.
"What is that?"
