I am Noble

― My real name is not Knitro Chambers Jr. Nitro Chambers.

- Find it later. What MIT Nuclear Physics and Nitro Chambers are like. That's fast.

- You'll see what I mean.

- We can't be too old.

The shock of the moment when my hands were relieved was still vivid. Jeong Hye-Joo who woke up instead of sleeping was breathing with sweat all over her body. Looking out the window, it was still the middle of the night.

She covers her cheeks with both hands. I leaned forward, crouching, and kicked the blanket. The blanket flutters upward and falls to the ground.

“Ahhhh! Ahhhh! Shame on you!”

With a tear operation, I could make that sweet young man mine. He thought that if he shed a few tears, he would be able to fall over.

That's why they must be punished. Seeing the shame of that moment every night turned into a nightmare.

“Ahh! Ahh! ”

Mad shyness envelops the body like a splash. For example, when you wake up from sleep, you can hi-kick a duvet to the roof. I asked her once if she had a nightmare, but I was embarrassed and couldn't say anything.

Shame on you. There's something I've been saying to Nitro.

- Yeah, I'm old.

- I'm sorry I was born seven years early. But it's not my fault, is it? Don't you think?

- Do you think I like you? Don't be ridiculous. I've had a lot of kids say I like them. I have a lot of brothers and sisters who like me. And you know why I like you? Yeah? Yeah.

- I'm just glad you like it. Oh, come on. It's getting really weird, but it's just a good thing I like you. But what, you don't like it because you're too old? Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I was born seven years early. It's not my fault. Can you just take care of it?

“Aaah! This is as far as I go!

- Since I was born seven years early, I'll be ten more years younger. I'll get a steady massage every day for the duration of the pack. I'll be sure to whiten it and take care of it. We'll get triple toning and a nourishing massage. I will also lift IPL and skin peeling....

- Can't you do that? Even though I'm gonna try this hard? You're so mean. Were you born that late? Are you talking about being young?

Bam, bam! Bam, bam!

“Ahhhh! Why did I say that? Crazy, crazy, crazy! ”

He wrinkled his wrinkles in front of the pupa. He said to his 116-year-old grandfather, 'He's too good to be born late. He's too young now, so it is natural for him to open his eyes with a duvet kick while suffering from nightmares every night.'

Jung Hye Joo took her hands off her cheeks and scratched her head. My hair was messed up badly, but I couldn't stand the embarrassment if I didn't do this.

“Phew... ”

After barely breathing, Jeong Hye-Joo stared at the ceiling with a dazed look. His face is overlapped by the dark ceiling. A handsome face with a cheeky smile, a flying teenager in a white robe, can be erased, but I can still remember.

“You must be crazy, I.... ”

She didn't understand. I knew his real age, his real identity, but I didn't know why I couldn't get rid of him.

“Mom, Dad won't like it.... ”

Suddenly, I was surprised. Oh, my God, you still have that idea? Crazy! Crazy! Jeong Hye-ju!

“What's wrong with your age? Age is just a number, right? ”

She mutters loudly, as if to persuade someone.

The conclusion was long ago. I just needed time to be sure. Jung Hye-Joo cleared her mind like that.

She picks up the phone. Open the Phonebook Favorites tab. I pressed the name at the top.

Cry

* * *

I want to see it now.

“…… Why? ”

I have something to say. See now. "

“… OK. I'll go that way. ”

You don't have to. I'll go to school.

“Time is running out. I……. ”

I'll be right there.

Then I hung up. Nitro is stunned for a moment with a disconnected phone. The bitter smile came out by itself.

‘I'm a bit of a prude myself. ’

The phone rang as soon as she remembered. What a coincidence, I thought it was funny.

He got up from his seat and got dressed. And I looked in the mirror. I wondered what kind of face he was waiting for her with.

The boy in the mirror was a boy with a stiff face. There were no white beards, no rough wrinkles. The obsessiveness of time was unknown to me.

But his insides are not. I've lived a time that I can't even compare to Jeong Hye-ju. Even her parents are grandchildren in front of her.

‘This is right. ’

With his mind set, he opened the door.

“This is how fate works. ”

At Regina's words, Choi Yun smiles bitterly.

Young-woong didn't tell me who Nitro was. So they only knew that Nitro was the grandson of MIT's already dead nuclear physicist.

I can't believe the dead nitro was the beaver and the east gate. And his grandson is working for Young-woong. Choi Yoon felt that the world was so small because he had no idea.

“You didn't know? That you two were at the same gate? ”

“I knew about it…… but I've never met Dr. Knitro. So I forgot. ”

“That reminds me. I saw that you guys were doing math under Dr. Franklin. But I don't remember seeing you do anything together. ”

“Me, too."

Nitro and Whipher split up their deuterium fusion experiments about 70 years ago, aiming to crack open. It's not hard for Regina and Choi Yun to know that. That was before you two were even born.

“I can't believe it was the Remasia Lab.... ”

“Yeah, I never thought of that. ”

The Remasian Institute collapsed a long time ago due to bombing. The area was destroyed by crystal contamination and remained a restricted area for decades.

Of course, the bombing was not only a public camouflage, but an accident that actually occurred during the blackmail of the military capitalist CIA chief.

“You built a crack in the basement, and then you set up a Remia Lab on top of it. ”

“There's a good chance of that. Dr. Ko Nitro himself participated in the experiment, so it's probably true. ”

“It's a good thing Professor Nitro didn't leave his journal behind. ”

“It was a fortune.”

That's how they knew. It was because Yu Ji-woong was so surrounded because he could not reveal the identity of Nitro. Nitro Jr., the grandson of Dr. Nitro, had his grandfather's artifact, and it said that he had been in the experiment.

“If the crack is really in the basement of the Remia Lab.... ”

“We have to stop him.”

“Is that possible?"

Regina asks nervously. Choi Yoon looked at her face quietly without answering. A bitter smile came to my mouth quietly.

“I don't know. But we have to stop it.”

“ ……. ”

“If we don't stop them, humanity has no hope. At this point, the cracks continue to grow. ”

Regina gazes silently into his eyes. Soon after, she opened her mouth.

“If Grandpa hadn't created the rift...... there wouldn't have been all this misfortune, would there? ”

“Don't say that. He was just doing it for humanity. The bad ones are like the CIA trying to use him. ”

“But it's true that cracks bring danger to the planet. ”

“You can stop it. Me, no, us. ”

Choi holds Regina's hand tightly. Her thin hands tremble lightly. Choi Yoon firmly empowered his hands as if to not worry about anything.

“What should I call you? Professor or grandfather? ”

“ ……. ”

The expression of nitro hardened lightly. When Jeong Hye-Joo saw it, she smiled. It was a bright smile that didn't match a straight face.

“But I guess you don't want to hear Grandpa's voice. Is this green light?”

“Greenlight? What is it? ”

“You're my grandfather, after all. ”

“ ……. ”

Nitro grilled his forehead lightly. I came out expecting a lot of serious air, and she was staggering from the start.

She touches the empty cup of coffee. Nitro confirms that his cup is empty as well. By the looks of it, time has already passed. I think we just met, but the coffee is empty.

“What do you think of me? ”

“As I said before, we have an age difference of……. ”

“Nobody knows anybody anyway. What the hell does that matter? ”

She said a half-word. The knit felt strange. Even though she knew her age, she didn't feel bad at all. I felt awkward about myself.

She's keeping an eye on him. The big eyes seem to be crying soon.

“What do I think? ”

“ ……. ”

“Don't even think about age, numbers, birthdays, things like that, just what do you think of a woman who's purely me? That's what I'm asking you. ”

Nitro can't answer anything. The silence must have been the answer to her. She makes a small smile as if she were at ease.

“You said you were going to America. ”

“How did you know? ”

“My sister told me. You have to go to America for something important, so don't distract me. Are you distracted by me? ”

“ ……. ”

Jeong Hye Joo put down the empty cup she was touching. Two eyes, like black, stare.

“You seem distracted. This is green light, too, right? ”

“Mr. Jung. I……. ”

“I know what you're going to say. But I don't want to hear it right now. I'm just gonna say what I want to say today. So just listen. ”

“ ……. ”

“I've decided. It's a big decision. I had a hard time making this decision. So I want you to take this seriously. That's the kindness of the woman who liked you. ”

Jeong Hye-ju hesitated for a long time about what she was going to say. Nitro waits quietly.

“Age, throw away the past. I put it all down and live for 16 lifetimes. Keep everything a secret forever. That's all I need. ”

She grabs your hand. The knit felt a soft touch on the back of his hand without a word. She said again.

“I'll take care of you from now on. For the rest of my life. ”

Nitro is speechless. I didn't know what to say. This was something he never imagined.

He tried to open his mouth. However, she raised her finger to block her lips.

“Go back and answer me. Okay?"

“ ……. ”

“Sis, I can wait. ”

Don't be fooled by crocodile tears, nitro!
