Episode 142: Good Friend No. 17

* * *

Cheondoun’s motive number 49.

While he was in the sea, he felt a familiar presence and went up to the surface.

A 10-year-old girl was seen looking around on a rugged rock wall.

“Why did you come again? “I told you not to come here because it’s dangerous.”

Number 49, who saw the girl, sat down on the rock wall and said. The girl who found him smiled brightly and ran towards him.

“Man number 49!”

The girl sat in front of him. Number 49 made a face of wonder at that.

“Aren’t you scared of me?”

Number 49 knew what he looked like.

Jet-black eyes without any whites would look like aliens.

Fins growing on the back and webbed feet between the fingers. No matter where you looked, it wasn’t a person.

He is a monster. Number 49 knew that. That’s why I was surprised by the girl who approached me without hesitation.

“Aren’t you disgusting with me?”

“It’s not gross. “You saved me from drowning.”

The girl said as she opened her school bag.

“He also rescued our dog, Poppy. “I was more scared when Poppy fell into the water while taking a walk.”

The girl said, recalling what happened a year ago. To the girl, he was a hero in a movie.

“But this person is your friend. The person who sent the letter before. Was it number 17? “What kind of person are you?”

At the sudden question, number 49 stared out into the distant sea.

A calm smile appeared on his lips, as if reminiscing about the past.

“Number 17… “He was very close to me.”

In number 49, memory distortion beyond memory correction occurred.

“No, we must have been close.”

“If you’re friendly, you’re friendly. “What do you mean?”

“Actually, I don’t remember much. I once suffered a head injury in an explosion. So my memory is a bit vague.”

Still, there was something I didn’t forget.

“Number 17 was very nice.”

Distortions occurred again in his mind.

“I helped other kids escape, not just me. If you get caught, it’s dangerous for you too. “He risked his life for his friend.”

I have never risked my life.

All he did was wear a paper bag and flap around at the chasing instructors.

Number 49, who didn’t know that, continued with a faint look on his face.

“That guy… He probably had a timid personality. “I got bullied by kids.”

Poor number 17 who was bullied by children.

An image of something bloomed in his mind.

[Hey, this idiot has appeared. let’s go.]

[If you stay here for no reason, sparks will fly.]

The children would say that and avoid number 17.

Number 17, the number 17 he remembers, was a child who wandered around the lab.

“So I’m curious. How did I and that guy become friends? No matter how much I think about this, it never comes to mind.”

Since we were never close in the first place, there was no way it came to mind.

However, Number 49 was confident that he was close to Cheon Do-un.

Otherwise, who would risk their life to help others escape?

“Then we can meet and ask.”

The girl took out the stationery and pen she had prepared.

“Stop putting it off, quickly set up an appointment and send the letter. “I’ll put it in the mailbox when I get home.”

After thinking about it for number 49, I picked up the pen.

This may be a trap on the part of the research institute. With that in mind, I hesitated to meet him, but I thought it would be okay if I hid in the sea and watched him before heading out.

The girl wrote down the meeting place and time on a letter and put it in an envelope.

“Then I’ll put it in the mailbox as I go.”

“okay. request.”

When the girl disappeared, number 49 quickly jumped into the sea.

The aftereffects of the detonation spell did not only cause memory problems.

Number 49 spent most of the day lying in an underwater cave due to burning pain in his body.

I escaped the lab because I wanted to swim freely, but I couldn’t remember swimming to my heart’s content.

‘I don’t even look forward to walking again. So that I can swim to my heart’s content… ‘I just wish the pain would go away.’

It is a wish that cannot be fulfilled. That’s why the wish becomes more earnest.

Number 49 entered the underwater cave with a bitter smile.

* * *

Cheon Do-un, sitting at the table in the yard, looked at the laboratory building.

At that moment, Park Soo-kwon came out from the entrance.

He brought out a stone the size of a human body and threw it away.

“you’re good. After all, S-class abilities are different.”

Soo-kwon Soo-kwon’s face became complicated in response to Do-woon Cheon’s praise.

It’s been two days since I woke up after fainting.

He had been clearing away the collapsed remains of the laboratory for two days.

‘How did I end up like this?’

He thought about the past.

When Park Soo-kwon came to his senses, there was only one command he heard.

[Clean that building so that it is usable.]

After hearing that, I started carrying stones.

It took a long time to clean it up carefully so it wouldn’t collapse.

“Your complexion is not good. it’s hard?”

“no. It’s not that hard… .”

“don’t worry. Class A workers will arrive soon. “If we work together, it will be over quickly.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the gate to the yard opened.

“Brother, I’m here!”

Ki-Seok Nam, a man who cannot be considered a nobleman, has arrived. He paused as he set down the box full of groceries.

‘What is that?’

He tilted his head when he saw the suddenly formed laboratory building.

My curiosity doubled when I saw Park Soo-kwon wearing a government agent uniform.

What on earth is going on? He thought for a moment and then nodded his head.

‘Well, this is my brother’s house.’

If it was Cheon Doun’s house, it would not have been strange for the building to rise from the ground.

Even though government agents suddenly appeared and were cleaning, it felt natural.

Nam Ki-seok is now equipped with the mentality to ignore everything that happens here.

Cheon Do-un looked at Ki-seok Nam and laughed.

“You dyed your hair?”

“Ah yes. “I tried to change my image a bit.”

Nam Ki-seok’s hair had turned into gorgeous blonde hair.

“I also got a perm.”

“yes. “I want to look richer.”

He gave off the vibe of a foreign rock singer.

“Have you learned how to headbange?”

Nam Ki-seok’s eyes widened at Cheon Do-un’s words. How on earth do you know that?

Nam Ki-seok nodded with a curious expression.

“As expected, you are amazing. Since he didn’t have time, he just looked a little on the Internet. “How did you know?”

Wouldn’t it be impossible not to know?

Cheon Do-un thought while suppressing laughter. It seemed like we would soon be able to see Nam Ki-seok headbanging in front of Yoo Ji-ah.

“Oh, more than that, look at this. “I got a call from the president of the association, and I think there was a letter from person number 49.”

Ki-seok Nam turned on his cell phone and showed the photo sent by the president of the association.

“But I’m sorry. I was late in checking the text message… “The date we agreed to meet is already today.”

“today? time is?”

“There are two hours left. What should I do?”

“That’s enough.”

After checking the location, Cheon Do-un stood up.

I opened my waist bag and checked that Dodak was in place.

Dodak was sleeping, hugging the World Tree staff in his bag.

-Huh… .

He seemed quite happy sleeping and talking in his sleep.

Dodak and himself, who have healing abilities. There are only two people going.

If they rush in, they won’t show up because they’re on guard.

“Nam Ki-seok, you are cleaning the building with that person.”

“All right. But who is that person?”

“That guy… .”

Cheon Do-woon looked at Park Soo-kwon. Come to think of it, I haven’t heard his name in the two days he’s been cleaning.

“What’s your name?”

“Well, this is Park Soo-kwon.”

“Yes, Park Soo-kwon. Because I’m going to be away for a while. “Don’t think about going anywhere until the building is all cleared out.”

Cheon Do-un said as he took out the hearthstone.

If you search the house a little, you will find a chest containing a Hearthstone.

He could use that to escape, but Cheon Do-un wasn’t worried.

“Do you want to know what this place does?”

Park Soo-kwon’s shoulders twitched.

The reason why he did not actively attempt to escape even after coming to his senses.

Park Soo-kwon considered this a suspicious organization.

Therefore, while he was captured, he tried to find out the purpose of this organization.

Of course, that couldn’t have happened.

“Try to clean up the building to a level I am satisfied with. Then I will come back and answer a question for you. “Do you have any questions?”

“If you have a question… “Can I ask you anything?”

“okay.”

“If I ask you what this place does, will you answer?”

Cheon Do-un looked around his house in silence. What is this place doing?

It was home. It was a family home.

“Is it really okay to ask that question?”

“yes.”

“He is a man without greed.”

Cheon Doun said as he broke the hearthstone.

“I thought you were going to ask how to break the S-rank wall. “It’s unexpected.”

“yes? What is that… .”

“Then I’ll come back.”

“Now, wait! What does that mean… ! “You mean you can go higher from here!”

He shouted, but Cheon Do-un had already entered the gate.

Park Soo-kwon had a blank face. Nam Ki-seok was also embarrassed.

It is said that the highest level a person can climb to is S rank.

There was more up there?

‘Yes, that’s right. When I think about it, I didn’t even have to lift a finger against that person.’

It really was there.

A way to break the S-class wall. If I had known such a thing existed, I would have asked about it.

Park Soo-kwon was frustrated in front of the bus that had left.

‘shit… ! Now that it’s like this… We will definitely find out at least the secrets of this organization!’

He looked up at the fluorescent-colored home and made a promise.

* * *

After crossing the gate, Cheon Do-un ran toward the East Sea.

The location designated by number 49 is in front of the dolphin statue in front of the beach.

‘Are they not here yet?’

Cheon Do-un stood in front of the statue and gazed at the sea.

There were no people because it was a place lined with sharp rocks instead of sand.

They must have deliberately chosen a place where no one comes as the meeting place.

I waited like that for 5 minutes.

‘It’s late.’

Cheon Do-un looked around the sea. He had no sense of anything approaching.

‘Do you have a suspicious personality?’

Is he looking this way from under the sea? Another 10 minutes passed like that.

“They don’t come very often.”

Before I knew it, 20 minutes had passed since the appointment time.

At this point, it’s not just that they don’t show up because they’re on guard.

‘Let me take a look.’

Cheondoun spread mana around. Traces of battle were caught in the mana that stretched out like a spider web.

‘There are four hunters. ‘She was caught in the net.’

A white sand beach not far from here.

When it was detected, Cheon Doun was no longer there.

* * *

Four hunters were struggling on the white sand beach.

They laughed as they pulled a large iron net.

“I finally got it! “So this is the rumored sea monster?”

“Stop talking nonsense and pull the net!”

“That thing is really tough. It’s so poisonous that even an elephant falls down within 3 seconds. “Hold on to that.”

Hunters pulled iron nets.

Number 49, trapped in the net, was unable to resist in any significant way.

By the time he was dragged ashore, there was already no chance for him to win.

All I can do is give my strength and hold on so as not to be dragged away.

“Wow, it’s really tough. Hey, shoot some more poisonous needles.”

“okay.”

When one hunter activated his ability, dozens of poisonous needles appeared in the air.

“Don’t kill me. Because human-shaped monsters are rare. “If sold alive, the price is what enthusiasts call it.”

“I know. The concentration of poison is… “Should we do it like this?”

When the hunter swung his arm, a poisonous needle was shot out.

Number 49 closed his eyes tightly as dozens of poisonous needles flew at him.

I expected pain to come, but there was nothing like that.

Someone landed in front of him with a loud bang as if he was a minister.

“Who, who… ?”

The sand on the white sandy beach blew so thickly that I couldn’t see the other person.

I could only see the person blocking my path waving his hand.

The thread that came out from his fingertips shattered dozens of poisonous needles.

“Well, what is that…” ! Who are you!”

“He’s trying to steal our prey! Everyone, get ready!”

Cheon Do-un ignored the hunters’ shouts and looked back.

The thread from his fingertips cut through the iron net.

Number 49’s eyes widened as he saw that the special net that had never broken was cut like a piece of paper.

“I thought I was going to be late. “It was like this here.”

“What is that, you can’t believe it… Number 17?”

Number 49 looked up at Cheon Do-un with a surprised face.

A young friend in my memories. A simple best friend who was bullied by children.

His good friend was right in front of him.

Cheon Do-un looked back at the hunters.

The hunters took a step back due to the unusual energy. As they retreated, Cheon Do-un approached.

“It was you. “The person who made me wait.”

Good friend number 17 smiled at the hunters.
