The Returner

“You took care of it? Without any harm?" ”

“That's right.”

“I don't know how that's possible. What's going on in that little country? ”

“Would you like to take a look?”

There is a vision.

The man who was watching the video taken over his head opened the barrel and cut the cigar.

Tak.

A man with an old-fashioned matchstick emits a deep smoke of dark cigarettes.

“Phew……. ”

The man who was watching the video without saying a word, shaking his head.

“You're not manipulating, are you? ”

“I'm afraid there's nothing more to this video. ”

“Only question remains of how to accept what I have seen. ”

The man's voice sank low.

Again, the man who was silent for a while put his cigar on the ashtray for a while, then put his clasped hand on his knee.

“I don't know, I don't know. I don't know how to deal with this. I feel like the men with swords and spears are fighting, and I suddenly see the man behind them grinding the machine gun. Don't you have to balance that a little bit? ”

“Cracks happen all the time, everywhere. ”

“Crack... It's a good expression, but it's not a good expression. I mean, it's not enough to break the board. ”

The cigar you put on the ashtray scratches your head like a man with a door in his mouth is in trouble.

“Which of the three is the most realistic? ”

“Oil, elimination, neglect? ”

“It's always the same way. Different difficulty. ”

“Removal is not possible. ”

“Never?”

“I wouldn't say it's highly unlikely. However, the probability of failure is too high. The risk of him failing to get rid of it is too great when he feels bad for us. One failure can ruin all of us. ”

The man's eyes twitched.

“That's outrageous. ”

“A dam always starts to collapse from a small crack. ”

The man frowned.

I didn't want to agree emotionally, but knowing that it was true, I had no choice but to express my uncomfortable feelings by rubbing the cigar roughly half burnt on the ashtray.

“Impossible to remove? Yeah, I see. What about refueling?”

“We're gathering as much information as we can, but we're not detecting any patterns of behavior. I'm not the type to fall for the temptation of money, I'm not obsessed with it. ”

“A free man?”

“It's ambiguous to say the least. He is a type who doesn't want to be locked up, and he is eager to adapt to his own system. It's probably best to think of it as an uncontrollable type. ”

“That's the most troubling thing. What about your family?"

“The country is being managed. It's not easy to access. ”

“Of course. I wouldn't be so stupid. ”

But there are always gaps.

When we do similar things for a long time, we realize that there are gaps in everything in the world.

It is about whether we can aim for the gap.

“neglect, neglect.... It's not a good situation to let go. We can't just leave him like that. Just don't slow down the surveillance for now. Resolve the relevant support in my name. ”

“I understand.”

The man glanced at the map and took a picture of a small country in the Far East with a pen.

“Never thought this place would be nuclear. ”

It was an unexpected change.

But how well we can cope with that change.

“And…. ”

“Yes.”

“What happened to them? ”

The person asked slightly lowers his head.

“Nothing new yet. ”

“Well, what about the Alpha? ”

“The Alpha is also endless. ”

A low sigh came out of the man's mouth.

Even an Alpha is a pain in the ass, and a new variable is emerging.

The gates are going crazy these days, and the national collapse of the defense nations is accelerating. There was no guarantee that the aftermath would not reach his country one day.

New variables emerging in a global crisis situation.

How this variable would move was a matter of the future.

“I'll have to work out a title for interest. What should I call him? Do you already have an Alpha… Beta? Or……. ”

“We have a name for you. ”

“What?”

“Mine.”

“Mein. Mines, mines.... It doesn't look like a good fit. Okay, I want you to highlight the future of Mine and keep an eye out. ”

“Yes.”

The man looks out the window and closes his eyes halfway.

‘It's not weird. ’

Change of gate, and up to 'alpha'.

That alone is not going to make any sense, but the surrounding nations will now begin to keep an eye on her presence. If the chaos of the Far East, where there are so many powerful nations around it that it is deformed, there will never be so little impact.

It felt like the world was getting chaotic.

It was not just coping with the sudden change in the world.

“Ha……. ”

Lee Hyuk opened the door and looked out at the sky.

Clear skies pierced Lee Hyuk's eyes.

“What a shitty day. ”

I can't believe I have to go to work!

I should have taken more vacation than money!

Previously, I would have tried to slow down to work with excuses, but I was frustrated because I knew too well that it was not the case.

In Lee Hyuk's eyes, who was looking for nothing to bother him, a blonde curled up in front of the gate.

Now, Lee Hyuk sighed deeply, seeing the blonde look as if it was natural.

Doesn't he have a life?

Lee Hyuk opened the door, and there was an unexpected blonde head standing there.

“Sir, are you out? ”

“… What the hell, you. ”

Blonde, blonde, male.

Seeing Kim Da-hyun standing in front of the gate, the situation I thought I was used to was broken, and I felt creepy behind my back.

“What! Why are you here? ”

Is that the same thing you call a brother and sister?

So this is the stalker type, too!

A number of questions shook my head.

“I've been asked to deliver this. ”

“Huh?"

Lee Hyuk tilted his head when he saw the small box that Kim Da Hyun gave him.

“Who?”

“My brother. ”

“… him? ”

“Yep. That's the one you're thinking about. ”

“Uh-huh.”

Lee Hyuk received the box with a shivering face.

You don't think there's anything weird in here?

Lee Hyuk's suspicious eyes glanced over the box.

What is this unknown emotion that makes me anxious every time I receive it, even though it has never happened so far?

“What's he doing? ”

“I went to school. He asked me to give it to him. ”

“Is that why you're here? ”

“Yes!”

“You're my brother, right? ”

“There's no one in the world more fucked up than my sister. ”

Lee Hyuk grabbed Kim Da-hyun's hand.

An unknown sympathy formed between the two.

“Hard, isn't it?"

“… No. ”

“Come on. You'll get married someday. ”

“If you take me.... ”

“Do you want to die? ”

“No, I'm not.”

Lee Hyuk swallowed tears while tapping Kim Da-hyun's shoulder.

Who comes into this world and who he can't handle the most.

It's the fucking brother!

I can't hit, I can't punch, but my outfit was filled with the tears I felt when I saw that evil human who was upside down.

But…….

I can see Kim Da-hyun's depressed face.

‘But Yaewon is more normal than him. ’

It's a long shot, but it's a crazy year.

If Yewon is a rebel, Kim Da-Som has just lost his taste.

It will be less than an accident, but once struck, it is a type that surpasses human imagination.

It is natural for people to be corrupted because they suffer from such a child.

You've probably been through a lot in your life.

I saw Kim Da-hyun with the look of feeling sorry for Lee Hyuk who remained as much as his fingernails.

“Well, don't look at me like that! Don't pity me! ”

“I know, I know that feeling! ”

“You know nothing! ”

“Let's get to work.”

Lee Hyuk urged Kim Da-hyun's teary feet.

I might actually cry if I leave it like this.

Even though it's only a short distance away, it feels like a long way today.

In addition, there were even those who blocked their way with hypocrisy.

Three puppets in black suits stand in front of them as they walk in peace.

Kim Da Hyun narrowed his eyes.

What is it?

It could get ugly.

Outwardly, it was not common for people to vote, "I am a competent person."

The problem is that this is a restricted area.

It was no coincidence that we stopped them here, but that they had a purpose.

“Who are you?”

Kim Da-hyun took a step in front of Lee Hyuk.

"But what am I doing? ’

It's a natural pinch.

He was watching Lee Hyuk's ability in front of his eyes, and Kim Da-Som's aura was making his body move before he even had a chance to clear his mind.

One of those who watched Kim Da-hyun's movement stepped forward.

"A woman?"

Among the three, it was a woman.

Taking a step forward means you're in charge.

“I have no business with you. The person we'd like to see is in the back. ”

It was a mixture of strange accents.

Kim Da-hyun intuitively assumed that they were not Korean, put his hand in his pocket, pressed the emergency button on his phone, and smiled bitterly.

“Could a foreigner have entered here? ”

“You can do it as a diplomat. ”

“Diplomat?”

Even a diplomat, a Capable Residence...

No, if you think about it, you're both capable and a diplomat might be able to get in here.

“Sounds good. I have to go to work. Can you move? ”

“I thought you said there was no business. ”

“Oh, really? ”

Kim Da-hyun turned his head to the left and to the right.

“Disappointed. Thought you'd heard of the Pass Drifter if you were a talented diplomat. ”

“Of course I do. But that's it. Your business is... ”

“Ah, okay, no business. So, what do we do? I have business now. ”

Kim Da Hyun clenched his fist.

If you put up a fight, just accept it.

I thought...

“Get out of my way, man. ”

“Oh, brother! ”

“Why are you stopping a guest from coming to me! ”

“I'm from another country. Nothing good will come of your contact. ”

“Why do you judge that? ”

“That's right…. ”

“I don't like how your face looks today. ”

Kim Da-hyun unknowingly blocked his face and retreated.

No matter how much time and money you spend coming back to this face!

Lee Hyuk, who removed Kim Da Hyun, opened his mouth.

“What do you want?”

“We have crossed the sea. I come from a country that's close, but far away. ”

Lee Hyuk looked at Kim Da Hyun and asked.

“What did he say? ”

“… from Japan. ”

“Oh, really? Why are you saying that? ”

“I'm sure you can speak Korean. ”

The face of the woman who heard Lee Hyuk and Kim Da Hyun's conversation was subtly shaken.

What, these morons?

“So?”

The woman sighed lightly.

It doesn't seem particularly helpful to be circling around as you investigate.

Directly and concisely.

“In conclusion……. ”

“Yes.”

“I want to recruit Lee Hyuk. ”

It's the same word for a different country.

Lee Hyuk sighed deeply.
