The Returner

95. What do ghosts do? - Isn't this a work organisation?

“You okay?"

Kim Da-som nodded at Lee Hyuk's words.

I was strangely calm even after going through that.

Strange, even for her to think so herself.

Obviously, it was hard to breathe until just now, but my mind was calm and comfortable when I stroked my head in Lee Hyuk's arms.

Is that because of him? ’

As an unknown Kim Da-som, I had no choice but to think so.

“It's okay, brother. ”

“So why do you wander around when it's sunset? Don't keep doing that in front of the house! ”

I was worried about you, and I followed you.

That tickling is funny, that's funny, that's good.

“Smile?”

Lee Hyuk kicked his tongue to see Kim Da-som smiling softly.

This is crazy.

You almost died.

If I'd come a little later, I'd be dead.

Ha…….

How close can I get to laughing if I almost die?

... scary woman.

“Go home first. ”

“… I can't go. ”

“Why?”

“I'm scared.”

Don't tell me you're scared of me looking like that!

I'm scared!

Is your dictionary Chinese?

Is that as scary as I know it to be?

Lee Hyuk trembled.

“So what are we going to do? ”

“… take me there. ”

“That's not so hard. ”

Lee Hyuk turned his head and said.

“Hey, come out. ”

Squawk.

At the same time, a woman's figure appeared in the shadow behind Lee Ji-hyuk's back.

Dogayun glanced at Kim Da-Som quietly.

“… who? ”

Kim Da-som was furious and narrowed his eyes when he saw him.

Who's there?

No, why is he coming out of there?

I understand you're capable. I've heard a lot about it.

But…….

Why, why? There. Coming out.

The shadow of Lee Hyuk.

So, you've been chasing them all day, up close and personal?

So you've been with Lee Hyuk the whole time?

And go to Lee Hyuk's house?

Ugh.

Kim Da-Som stares at you.

However, Dogayun also faced Kim Da-som with a bold but subtle gaze.

“What are you doing?"

When he said that he was relieving tension, he turned his eyes and looked at Lee Hyuk.

“What do you want?”

“Take her home. ”

“Not possible.”

“What? Why else? ”

“It's not protected. It's not my job. Reject.”

Lee Hyuk sighed deeply.

A man's got to have direction! Go, go, go!

“Then keep guard and call the police or something and have them take you home. ”

“It's not my job. ”

“... What is your mission? ”

“Protecting and monitoring Lee Hyuk. ”

“Watchdog, how are you going to protect me?

“An invisible knife is scarier than a visible gun. ”

“What are you talking about? Guns are a hundred times scarier. ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk was annoyed by Dogyeong, who turned away as if he didn't feel worthy of answering.

“So, you can't help? ”

“Yes.”

“Then you can stay here. I'll go alone. ”

“I can't. It won't fall. ”

“Oh, don't do this! Yuck!”

Lee Hyuk desperately endured the feeling of wanting to blow off his hair.

It wouldn't have worked if I told him.

Lee Hyuk took out his phone.

“It's me.”

- Yes, go ahead.

“I got you.”

- Yes?

“We got a killer cub on the loose. There's a bug chasing us. Get me a fix and send some backup this way. ”

- Yes, I'll get it right away.

“And…. ”

- Yes!

“Tell Gayuni to take Gimdasome home. ”

― …….

“Now you think, 'What is this nonsense, you lunatic?' ”

- Oh, no.

“My voice is shaking! ”

- Put me on the phone.

“Ha, the talking class. ”

Lee Hyuk grumbled and without delay handed the phone over to Dogyun.

Dogayun picks up the phone, with a slight look on his face.

Beevik.

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk stared blankly at the phone when the call ended, then lifted his head and looked at him.

However, Dogayun's eyes never turned to Lee Hyuk.

“Was it a mistake?"

“Yes.”

Yeah, sometimes you make mistakes in life.

Everyone makes mistakes by grabbing the wrong crystal and turning off the phone.

But it's not a mistake to squeeze so tight that you don't hear vibrations when the phone rings again!

Break the phone!

“Just take it? ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“... Take it when you say something nice. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Dogayun answered the phone with a sad face.

Dogyun nodded his head and hung up on Lee Hyuk when he heard something coming from over the phone.

“What did he say?”

“No mission changes. ”

“… hey. ”

Dogayun again avoided Lee Hyuk's gaze.

You don't like it?

Is that so?

I don't think this is a level of insubordination.

Do you really hate it that much?

What do you hate so much about taking a girl home?

“Why don't you just do it? ”

“... I hate it. ”

Huh? No?

I can't believe that came out of her mouth.

“What do you hate so much? ”

“I just hate it. ”

“Oh, stop it, stop it! I'll take you! Oh, shut up inside, seriously. ”

At that moment, Dog Yoon grabbed Lee Hyuk's collar.

“Why?”

“Fulfill orders. I'm taking him home. Jung-min is supposed to move to the marker in front of the house. Clear the air.”

“Huh?"

What's wrong with you?

Did it go bad? What's the big change?

“Well, well……. ”

Once you do, it'll be easy for Lee Hyuk.

“Please. You be careful going in. ”

As Lee Hyuk left his words and flew away, he looked at Kim Da-som with an emotionless gaze.

Kim Da-som also looked at him with hot eyes.

“I'll take you. ”

“Is that okay?”

“Orders. Fulfill. Very unfortunately.”

“I don't want to go with you, either. ”

“I agree.”

They stared at each other for a while and did not move an inch.

“Ugh.”

A man with a cracked side spewed blood and shoved gauze through the wound.

“Huh……. ”

An ordinary person would have died instantly from a gunshot wound.

Should we be thankful that he's still alive?

“Kill. Kill. I'll kill you.”

But he didn't seem to like it.

“Son of a bitch, I'm gonna kill you. ”

Thanks to the strong body of the capable person and the ability to recover beyond the killer, it was not an easy wound to recover from.

I don't know if I should go to the hospital, but going to the hospital with this wound was like putting my head in the culprit's mouth to catch me and eat.

“Ugh.”

I remembered the sharp-eyed man's face with a grudge embedded in his brain.

Did you say "Ji-hyuk"? ’

The blonde woman must have said that.

‘He saw my face. ’

With her.

We have to kill him now and stop him from drawing. Whatever it takes.

Otherwise, death will be narrowed down, and even if you can run away, you may not dream of a free life like this in the future.

And his reason for enjoying life will be gone.

“Kill.”

Kill him.

Whatever it takes!

Knng.

“Huh?"

The low beast cries, and the man's head turns to the side.

What is it?

A little dog came into his apartment one day.

No, is that... a dog?

The beast, red and black fur, seems to have mixed the dog and bear in half, staring at itself with open eyes.

“Star……. ”

Normally, he wouldn't have cared about the beast, but it would be unfortunate for him to have caught his eye.

The man picks up the knife that was on the table and throws it to the beast.

Ka 'ang!

“Huh?"

Caang?

What's that supposed to mean?

Isn't this the sound of metal hitting metal?

Why is that sound coming from here?

The man rubs his eyes and looks back at the beast.

The beast stands staring at the man as if it had never seen him before.

The man who felt a strange horror at the sight grabbed the remaining knife.

“What, what? ”

I don't think so.

From there, this is at least a hundred kilometers away.

Even though the power ran so fast that it couldn't get far, it was absurd to chase a distance of more than a hundred kilometers in just ten minutes.

So that strange beast has something to do with that guy, Jihyuk...

Immediately, the neck of the beast begins to glow.

“Huh?"

The startled man flies back.

Squawk.

Five people appeared before him almost simultaneously.

“This bastard……. ”

Kim Da-hyun, who distorted his face with hatred like an evil spirit, flinched as if he were rushing towards a man immediately.

“Whoa.”

Choi Jung-hoon, who stopped Kim Da Hyun, searched up and down the man.

“Unregistered?”

“Is that so?"

“I roughly remember when I look at his face. ”

“Ha, good for you. I remember it all. ”

“… Sorry. ”

You don't have to come all the way out here looking like this!

I don't know what to do. That's what I got.

Choi Jeong-hoon swallowed his brow and looked at the man again.

“Is that him? ”

“Can't you see my flank? It's cool.”

“Is it someone else, the one you pierced by mistake? ”

“Do you want me to show you what you accidentally drilled? ”

“I'm sorry."

So don't look at the flank.

As soon as Choi Jung-hoon was about to say something, Kim Da-hyun shouted sharply.

“Is this the time for jokes? ”

Ha, that Cisco.

When I heard he almost died, I lost my mind, rational.

How dare you yell at me?

However, Lee Hyuk, who had a profound understanding, nodded his head without asking.

“Let's catch it first. ”

Let's get this over with.

“Hehe!”

The moment the man who thought the situation was turning against him tried to teleport again, the tentacle that had reached out from Lee Hyuk's hand stopped right in front of his face.

“You'd better stop. If you don't want to get a hole in your head this time. ”

“ ……. ”

“Telpo is good. Going anywhere. But if the entity dies before it can move on, it's over. Right?"

“ ……. ”

“You should have done the right thing. Don't be afraid to set it up in front of my house. Ha... I'm only after blondes, too. If that's the case, I'll go overseas and install it. ”

Lee Hyuk's death gritted his teeth.

But there was nothing he could do in this situation.

“Let's go together first. We need to figure out how to get you arrested. ”

It won't be easy, but there's got to be a way.

It's Choe Jung-hoon's job to use his head anyway.

“… damn it. ”

“Don't worry. I'll treat you with respect. ”

I regret not being dead.

Kim Da-hyun slowly approached the man who was still unable to escape the tentacle of Lee Hyuk.

“That's a little tricky. ”

A subtle accent.

A voice that sank low.

An unhurried, relaxed voice digs so vividly into Lee Hyuk's ears.

The impact of that small voice was enormous.

Lee Hyuk slowly turned his head to a truly hard face, which he had never shown in this world.

Front door.

There was a man who had never seen him before.
