There is no villain in my return 161

The atmosphere changed drastically just by knowing that Shinwoo was a prosecutor.

Those who had been shouting as if they were going to eat me just a moment ago shut their mouths tightly.

The only one whose attitude hasn’t changed is Shinwoo.

“Pee-pee. Who are your parents?”

The student with the unusually slanted eyes who was hiding behind me flinched.

There’s a guy right next to me who looks exactly like him.

When I looked at him as if asking why, Shinwoo answered.

“It’s nothing. He was swinging a knife at a sitting prosecutor and asking if he knew who his father was. What does that great father do?”

The man flinched at Shinwoo’s question.

He had a rough body and a fierce expression, but he didn’t dare raise his head.

“……I’m running a small tavern. I’m sorry for being immature.”

“It’s okay. I’ll just be punished.”

“That… the punishment is a bit much. The kids have to go to college too….”

Shinwoo’s smile deepened.

This is the biggest problem.

People who didn’t even seem human received support and went to a relatively good university.

And later, when he recalled his mistakes, he remembered them simply as memories from his immature days.

‘It’s just too much compared to the pain and trauma that the victims will be left with for the rest of their lives.’

Jeong Dong-hyeon’s will also included stories about the school violence committee that had been held several times.

The school authorities concluded that it was just a prank between students.

The background is the settlement money received by his father, who appeared as the guardian in the picture.

The bullying became more severe under the stigma of being a child abandoned by even his parents.

Shinwoo stared blankly at the children.

“That won’t work.”

“yes?”

“In my eyes, they look more like criminals than students.”

“……Even if you’re a prosecutor, be careful what you say! These kids were raised like gold and jade!”

“Do children raised like that swing weapons and assault their own children? How on earth do they raise their children to become such cripples?”

“……Whose son is that crippled!”

The woman with the luxury bag screamed, but her husband grabbed her shoulder and glared at her.

It means to tease someone while looking at them.

“……We will pay for that child’s medical expenses. And the settlement fee as well. So let’s wrap it up here. Is that okay, Dong-hyun?”

Parents know about Jeong Dong-hyeon.

The fact that he was aware that he was being harassed.

However, they simply thought that their children were running away because of stress.

I think that if you study hard, things like this can be forgiven.

Jeong Dong-hyeon’s face was filled with helplessness.

Usually, in situations like this, everyone tries to act positively.

They don’t care about the feelings and emotions of the victim, Jeong Dong-hyeon.

I thought it would be the same this time, but it’s not Shinwoo.

“Oh, really. You don’t understand what I’m saying. My brother was bullied by those bastards. Should I bully them the same way? Should I just shake them off until there’s not a single speck of dust left?”

“……Please don’t be so emotional…… Please just look at me once……”

“Once, what the hell.”

I turned my head to Shinwoo’s sharp gaze.

The police naturally figured out whose side they had to take.

Instead of Shinwoo, he dragged the students and headed to the police car.

“Dad. Why am I being taken away? I told you it would be okay!”

“Excuse me, just look at me once! I won’t do it again. I have to study for the college entrance exam!”

Shinwoo clicked his tongue as he looked at the children who still hadn’t come to their senses.

I can’t figure out where it all went wrong.

Shinwoo, who was trying to relieve stress by sweating for once, suddenly headed to the police station.

There is no agreement or leniency.

Intelligent assault using weapons.

What they did was not a minor crime that could be dismissed as mere reckless behavior.

On the way home.

“……thank you.”

Shinwoo glanced at Jeong Dong-hyeon, who was sitting next to him.

His voice was as unconfident as his skinny body.

“Are you eating?”

“……School lunch is available.”

“Those guys are harassing me, but I’m getting over it pretty easily.”

Shinwoo turned the car around and went into a nearby meat restaurant.

“At your age, you need to eat a lot of protein. That way, you can build muscle.”

He silently grilled meat and piled it on his plate.

Jeong Dong-hyeon, who had been watching the situation, carefully began to eat one piece at a time.

And soon I filled my stomach by eating a whole bowl of rice with the soybean paste stew.

“You look good because you eat well.”

“……thank you.”

Jeong Dong-hyun looks curious as to why Shin-woo, whom he has never met before, helped him.

So far, no one has tried to get involved in his work.

“Do you live in a villa on the hill?”

“Yes. How did you know?”

“How would you know? My brother used to live there too. He moved now though.”

“Ah. I’ve heard of it. The prosecutor who said a dragon emerged from that stream…….”

I nodded in understanding at his words that I had just seen him passing by.

“Does your father still like drinking?”

“yes.”

“What about your mother and sister?”

“My mother works at a noodle restaurant from lunchtime until dawn. My younger brother doesn’t come home often, so it’s been a while since I’ve seen him.”

A person who has lived only in depression does not even know that he or she is in such an environment.

Jeong Dong-hyeon is one such case.

I was already used to the bullying and didn’t even have the strength to move forward.

The exact meaning of just living was correct.

But this can certainly change.

‘Everyone has something they want to do.’

Jeong Dong-hyun doesn’t know how to proceed in that direction because he didn’t have proper parents.

“Of course you won’t be able to study. Is there anything you want to do?”

“What do you want to do?”

“Yeah. I’m going to talk about it during college counseling sessions at school.”

Jeong Dong-hyun’s face turned red.

It has become a luxury to even talk about one’s dreams.

“……I’m a webtoon writer.”

Shinwoo had guessed to some extent.

When the will was discovered in his house in his previous life, the notebook was filled with drawings he had always drawn.

It’s a story about a high school student who was bullied, who learns boxing and defeats his bullies and other villains.

I know very well that this is a story that reflects my own wishes.

“Are you good at drawing?”

“No, I’m just fiddling around.”

“Still, it’s admirable that there is something you want to do.”

It was only a short remark, but her face turned red, as if she felt awkward receiving praise.

Usually, when I draw pictures, I get scolded for doing something useless.

In many ways, Shinwoo is a completely different type of person from the people around him.

“Isn’t there something like an academy for webtoons?”

“Yes. Just getting the composition and background.”

“That’s good. I’ll keep working part-time from now on.”

“Are you working part-time?”

Even if I start studying now as a high school senior, it would be difficult to go to college.

In that case, it would be a much better choice to go to an academy and learn the webtoon you want to make.

“Come to the gym you came to today, early in the morning and at night, and clean it. While you’re here, exercise regularly and I’ll give you at least some money to pay for your academy.”

Jeong Dong-hyun was speechless for a moment and just stared blankly at Shin-woo.

Her hair flowed down and her eyes were red.

What you did for yourself today is already a favor I can never repay.

“Why aren’t you answering? Can’t you do it?”

“No. I will definitely do it. I want to do it!”

Shinwoo nodded at Jeong Dong-hyun’s powerful answer and ordered more meat.

“No matter how hard and difficult life is, don’t skip meals. You have to build up your stamina little by little to gain the strength to move forward.”

“Yes. I’ll keep that in mind, hyung.”

“If anything happens, tell me right away.”

Jeong Dong-hyeon rubbed the tip of his reddened nose and stuffed uncooked meat into his mouth.

I felt like I would cry like a child if I didn’t do that.

There are people who drag you into a corner just because you are family.

Just because they are a father or mother, or just because they gave birth to a child, they mortgage their child’s life and sacrifice their family as firewood for their own miserable life.

Jeong Dong-hyeon’s father was like that.

The most rational decision would be for Jeong Dong-hyeon’s family to kick out his father, but that is currently impossible.

‘Should I be more involved here?’

I really wanted to beat that piece of trash up and throw him in a rehabilitation center.

But in order for Jeong Dong-hyeon to move forward, he had to shake off the trap called his father.

Until then, I plan to wait and see.

‘There are more connections from the past than you might think.’

If I had lived only for the purpose of revenge, I would have been able to get to the nape of Geummusan Mountain more quickly.

But in that case, he was no different from Geummusan.

Shinwoo arrived home, washed up and lay down on the bed.

I picked up my phone, but there was no call from Geum Na-yeon.

“I believed you would be a good ally, but is this the end?”

But suddenly, Geum Na-yeon and Jeong Dong-hyun overlapped.

I lived oppressed, trapped in the trap of family.

The difference is that Geum Na-yeon is a bit more mature and has held on without collapsing.

Thinking about it that way, my perspective changed a little.

“Don’t be afraid to reach out first.”

Not everyone experiences the miracle of living twice.

I lived in fear of the present and the future.

The same goes for Geum Na-yeon.

There’s nothing like pressing the call button first to convince her.

The beeping continued longer than usual.

And finally she answered the phone.

-what’s the matter?

Although his tone of voice seemed no different from usual, the coldness contained within was conveyed.

With this attitude, I realized that I definitely knew something.

Whatever it was, it shook Geum Na-yeon’s heart.

“It’s nothing special, I just thought you had eaten.”

-Food? At 10pm?

Geum Na-yeon laughed in disbelief.

-I ate. I ate so well that I’m full.

“Then that’s good. We all have to eat to live.”

-What’s really going on? As for the third safe, I don’t know anything about it.

This time, on the contrary, Shinwoo laughed.

-What? Why are you laughing?

“Why are you so scared?”

-Me? Scared? Or not?

“Is Geummusan showing off his strength in front of you? I am such an incredible person. Like that?”

-… … You don’t know the influence that Cheonwoo Industries has in South Korea.

Judging from the slight delay in speaking, it seems that was the case.

Geummusan was not afraid to periodically demonstrate the influence he had.

For some, such things become another desire or respect, and they follow him.

“That must be true. It must be great. It grew big by feeding off of Grandma Baek’s enormous capital and countless people. The sprouts that were planted and raised over the decades must be no ordinary thing.”

Is it because I admit it too readily?

Geum Na-yeon was speechless.

Today’s Shinwoo is somehow more gentle than usual, standing like a blade.

-13 people came and ate. They were all great people.

“To the extent that even the world’s best Geum Na-yeon would be scared?”

-That’s right, I’m scared enough. And you should be scared too.

“It looks like Geummusan is trying to catch me.”

Geum Na-yeon doesn’t answer yes or no.

I’m still thinking about it.

The heart supports Shinwoo, but reason tells her not to rebel against Geummusan.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make the judgment about the risks. You just think about business like a businessman. I don’t want anything more than that.”

-It seems like you’re ignoring me somehow.

“It’s not about ignoring, it’s about distributing power appropriately.”

-Well, I like doing business. Unlike people, it’s predictable.

As we talked, the initial tension disappeared.

Geum Na-yeon remained silent for a moment before speaking.

-Choi Ki-yeol came to see you. He promised to bring a trap to kill you in exchange for the position of Seoul mayor. It may be shocking, but people are not trustworthy.

Geum Na-yeon thought that Shin-woo would probably be shocked.

As is known, Choi Ki-yeol is Shin-woo’s ardent supporter.

But what actually burst out was Shinwoo’s laughter.

-What? Why are you laughing? Do you think I’m lying?

“No. I don’t believe it. It’s funny because you say things that seem too believable.”

-Did you really expect Choi Gi-yeol to betray you?

“Did you expect that? No. Choi Ki-yeol has to betray me. He’s the kind of person who would do that.”

Choi Ki-yeol is a dirty person.

The relationship between the two was one of use rather than trust from the beginning.

Choi Ki-yeol will cut off Shin Woo’s head several times for the position of Seoul mayor.

“That’s a very minor issue. The fight between Geummusan and I will end when we both stop breathing. You don’t need to be shocked by the fact that I’m using the people around me. If that’s the case, I’m already doing it.”

Choi Ki-yeol is a stepping stone for Shin-woo to take a step further, nothing more, nothing less.

Geum Na-yeon realized that this was a fight she could not get involved in.

“Don’t rush into making a choice and just watch. The winner will be on your side.”

-… … Well. That’s what I was thinking anyway.

Although he was blunt, his voice was softer than before.
