Chapter 561
Episode 561
The survivors who retrieved the kindergarten students arrive at the concert venue.
“oh my god.”
Ha Seong-yoon was impressed.
“One human being’s spirit can go this far.”
Garam Yoon heard him muttering, ‘I should have written a thesis,’ and looked at him with an anxious face.
Han Do-yoon, who was supporting Yoon Garam, was similar. I was wondering if I was inadvertently provoking Lee Jae-heon, who seemed unstable at first glance.
Ha Seong-yoon was not unaware of the thoughts of his colleagues, but he approached Lee Jae-heon and asked.
“What is your name?”
“My name is Jaeheon Lee.”
“Did I say you don’t remember me?”
“I don’t remember a single thing.”
“This crazy patient.”
Lee Jae-heon noticed Ha Seong-yoon’s pure exclamation and opened his mouth.
“…Are you a doctor?”
“Of course, I am a doctor. “Do you forget that?”
“sorry.”
Jeong In-ho’s round smile instantly distorted at the sight of Lee Jae-heon meekly apologizing.
“Isn’t this a bit unfair?”
Seo Jang-hwa, who was next to him, asked with a worried look on his face.
“What is so unfair?”
“Why did the gentleman who didn’t even bother to apologize to me why in front of Ha Seong-yoon…”
“Are you a saint? “Didn’t you say you’re in your 30s?”
Seo Jang-hwa felt fed up.
‘I don’t know why people who are fine when they are alone become so childish when they get together.’
If Jung In-ho, Ha Seong-yoon, and Hong Gyeong-jun had something in common, it was that they were most mature when they were apart. I don’t know why, but when two or more of those guys get together, they fight like kids.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Ha Seong-yoon and Lee Jae-heon was progressing calmly.
“Where did you blow off your wrist?”
“Oh, it will be in the souvenir shop.”
“I think this is information that Minhong would have really enjoyed if he had heard it.”
“is that so?”
“Don’t be happy. I actually feel bad when I say and listen to it.”
Do-yoon Han, who was supporting Garam Yoon, muttered with a subtle look on his face.
“…Isn’t it a bit strange to even think of giving a 6-year-old child the hand he cut off…”
Seo Jang-hwa agreed with him.
“I’m not the only one who thought that.”
“I don’t even understand why Jaeheon Lee is so happy.”
“Then do you know this? “All these bastards here are crazy.”
“Oh my god.”
“If I hadn’t stopped him, Lee Jae-heon is the guy who really would have sacrificed his hand.”
“I’m glad Minhong is sleeping.”
Garam Yoon smiled awkwardly and neither agreed nor denied it. Even though he thought their conversation was right, he didn’t seem to want to criticize the crazy spirit of his beloved men.
No matter what others were talking about, Ha Seong-yoon steadily observed Lee Jae-heon.
“What on earth are these gills?”
“That’s a good question. “I think I am turning into a fish monster, so I would like to cautiously suggest that I should kill it before something serious happens.”
“What’s the use of being careful with what you say? The content is already a mess. “Close your mouth and lower your collar.”
“It would be disgusting….”
“Use it.”
Jaeheon Lee shrugged his shoulders and pulled down his clothes to reveal his neck. Seo Jang-hwa turned his gaze with an expression of amazement at the clearly visible bright red gills, and Han Do-yoon frowned as he thought of Jeong Eun-woo.
“That…”
Han Do-yoon continued, unable to hide his anxious expression.
“…It’s very similar to Jung Eun-woo’s.”
“Ah, has Jung Eun-woo become a monster? “I thought he was eaten by a treasure chest and went missing, but I guess there was a change in the situation.”
“That’s right… I guess there were a lot of changes…”
Han Do-yoon, who had hesitated, summarized the situation simply.
“…It is assumed that Jeong Eun-woo, who became a monster, came out through the ceiling, killed Kim Ki-jeong, broke CEO Yoon Gar-ram’s leg like this, then ran away and knocked out Min-hong and Seo-ah.”
“Once the mutation progresses completely and you become a monster, you seem to lose your wits, don’t you think?”
“Yes, it seemed like he didn’t remember us at all. Or maybe even though I remembered it, I didn’t really feel the need to control myself.”
Han Do-yoon, who said that, let out a deep sigh.
“…Ah… I want to throw up.”
Jeong In-ho joined in on that small muttering.
“It would be a good idea for President Garam Yoon to sit against the nearby wall and Han Do-yoon to get some rest as well. Due to the nature of this aquarium, I often get motion sickness due to the loud noises… and I experienced tiring incidents.”
“…Then wait a minute, is that the bleachers on the second floor? I’ll sit on the chair over there. “Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay, take a good rest.”
Han Do-yoon glanced at Lee Jae-heon, who was clearly different from the one he knew, and left for the audience. His face was quite pale, and he seemed to still be thinking about Kim Ki-jeong’s death.
When Do-yoon Han sat in the stands far away, Jae-heon Lee, who was looking at him, said softly.
“There is someone here who wants to kill me too.”
“Mr. Lee Jae-heon, would you please shut up?”
“Certainly, a colleague who can turn into a monster at any time is an undesirable existence.”
As he said that, his smiling eyes were as thin as a snake.
“Besides, in my case, I will definitely become a monster.”
“….”
“There is no way I would look good in a situation where I lost a close friend to such a monster. He seems to have a very good personality, so I might not kill him, but at least I can hope for his death…” “
Mr. Lee Jae-heon.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. “I’ve been a bit distracted lately, so my tongue has become a little freer.”
“Why have you become so obnoxious?”
Ha Seong-yoon smiled softly and asked, fixing his eyes on Lee Jae-heon’s gills.
“What on earth did you do to the gills that are already growing in strange places? Do you mind if I touch it for a moment? “There’s something I want to check.”
“You can check as much as you want.”
Ha Seong-yoon muttered, looking down dissatisfied at his dirty hands, which were too dirty to touch the affected area.
“You’re too obedient for a person who gives you a place to breathe just by smothering it with your hand…” “If the
doctor wants you to, I should at least give you my eyeballs.”
“Unfortunately, I am not a doctor who needs eyeballs. “Most doctors in the world are like that.”
“Then I guess the doctor I met wasn’t a doctor.”
“…Ah, you talked about your experience.”
Seo Jang-hwa, who was looking at the calm-looking back of Ha Seong-yoon, whispered to Jeong In-ho.
“Is the doctor mad?”
“It’s going to take a while for that anger to go away.”
“Even if Jaeheon Lee is out of his mind, he has a knack for digging his own grave.”
“At that point, I guess there’s something wrong with the genes.”
Garam Yoon, who was sitting between the two, laughed awkwardly.
“You seem very angry.”
“How long do you think that will last, boss?”
“Well, I guess I’ll have to go back to reality to know for sure…”
“Ah, then you’ll still be in low pressure until you go back to reality. I see.”
While Seo Jang-hwa insisted that he not confront the doctor and his argument was accepted, Ha Seong-yoon checked Lee Jae-heon’s condition, barely holding back the frustration bubbling up inside him.
He slightly lifted Lee Jae-heon’s gills.
“…The skin is sticking out widely like a tumor. Is there a total of 4? Are you aware that you are breathing this way? “I can feel the air moving around. What do you think, Lee Jae-heon?”
“…I feel a little bit. “It feels a little different than when you breathe through your nose.”
“How exactly are they different?”
“To be precise, I feel like I’m not actually able to take in oxygen. I think the correct explanation would be to say I’m out of breath. “It is very strange and interesting that although air is flowing, it is not actually moving to the lungs.”
“I feel ashamed because I cannot clearly determine whether the cause of Lee Jae-heon’s shortness of breath is because he is outside the water or because his gills are damaged. Why is blood flowing like this here?”
In response to Ha Seong-yoon’s question with a gentle smile, Lee Jae-heon stared at him and then cautiously asked.
“…Am I being scolded right now?”
“You’re not singling me out, are you?”
“No, it was just a question with pure intentions. “I’m sorry if it sounded harsh.”
“If that’s the case, then it’s true that you’re being scolded. It would have been better to just cut it off completely. It was clearly visible that he had taken half of the gills off and drank it, but this grumpy doctor couldn’t bear to swallow all his anger. “There are signs of regeneration, but the gills have not been completely cut off, so the structure is disorganized.”
Ha Seong-yoon, who became expressionless as if he was tired of smiling, let out a small sigh.
“As far as I know, the gills are probably the part where a lot of blood accumulates because the capillaries are quite developed… This is a part of the human neck that is fatal to fish, so it must be hard to breathe.”
“Fortunately, I can still breathe through my nose and mouth.”
“….”
“…I….”
“….”
“…Teacher Ha Seong-yoon?”
Ha Seong-yoon, who was deeply troubled by Lee Jae-heon’s call, opened his mouth.
“…Well, another problem could arise if the human body breathes through gills rather than the nose and mouth. Lee Jae-heon’s gills don’t have covering bones, so he won’t be able to control his breathing on his own. If he can’t control it and continues to take in oxygen, the oxygen in his blood will become too excessive….” “….” “Well, what exactly will
happen
? “It is true that this is a situation where the body itself is turning into a monster, but it is unfortunate that I have never experienced a patient like this before, so I cannot accurately predict what the outcome will be.”
“I think you fully expected it.”
“Anyway, I agree with Lee Jae-heon that it’s a good thing. “I feel like I want to have my entire gill removed.”
At those words, Jaeheon Lee put his hand over the gills.
“Shall I open it?”
“Would you like to open it? Which unlucky ear caught the word ‘surgery’ I just said? “You probably don’t think that excision surgery is such a senseless act of violence that you just have to tear things apart at will.”
“I made a mistake.”
This time, Jeong In-ho intervened as he obediently apologized.
“What is it? “Why are you appearing in such a low manner?”
Lee Jae-heon smiled brightly and answered.
“In the first place, you have to look good to the healer, junior.”
“Ah, in that context….”
“I was disgusted by the noble doctor and my internal organs were twisted, but if I was left without treatment, I would have to take care of my stomach. “Do you know how tiring that is?”
“….”
Jeong In-ho closed his mouth at the unimaginable nonsense, and Ha Seong-yoon’s face completely lost emotion.
“What did you just say?”
“yes?”
“I think I’ve been hearing stories about a strange doctor for a while now.”
“What…”
“I think I’ve heard stories about doctors who ask for eyeballs, doctors who don’t perform surgery on patients because it’s inconvenient, and things worse than animals that imitate doctors. Maybe I heard it wrong? I am?”
“….”
Lee Jae-heon looked back at Jeong In-ho.
‘Help me.’
Jeong In-ho smiled roundly and shook his head.
‘Each person lives separately.’
Lee Jae-heon was convinced and looked at Ha Seong-yoon.
“Did I do something wrong…?”
“Did you commit a sin?”
“Can I kneel and raise my hands?”
“What are you going to do with that little rag body?”
“I was wrong.”
“I don’t need an apology from Jaeheon Lee right now.”
“Perhaps I should do something to relieve my anger….”
“Try to answer what kind of bastard I met.”
“Oh, well… maybe… you won’t be able to see me anymore…”
“I thought you said they were all dead.”
“….”
“Tsk.”
Jaeheon Lee sent a heartfelt thank you to his past self.
‘It was wise.’
It seems that all the past life relationships that came out of his mouth were turned into deceased, and thanks to that, the current Lee Jae-heon received great grace. Even in the midst of my hectic state, a feeling of relief tingled down my spine.
Ha Seong-yoon opened his mouth as if his thoughts had been organized.
“For now, I understand.”
“Ah… what did you understand?”
“Jaeheon Lee, listen carefully.”
“yes.”
“The world sees what happened to you and calls it gaslighting.”
“…?”
Lee Jae-heon looked back at Jeong In-ho.
‘this is right?’
Jeong In-ho nodded, still smiling.
‘That’s right.’
Lee Jae-heon was convinced again and looked at Ha Seong-yoon.
“I was wrong.”
“That’s not what needs to be said right now, is it? What did you understand while exchanging glances with In-ho Jeong?”
“sorry…?”
“Did you say that because you really thought it was the correct answer?”
“…I will correct it…?”
“Oh my god.”
That’s how Ha Seong-yoon achieved the Triple Crown.
It was a crown that no one welcomed.
