The Returner

The Returner 7 volumes (Trinotes)

1. So let's enjoy a little bit (3)

Lee Hyuk was deaf because he thought he heard wrong.

“Coming?”

“Yes."

“Where?”

“Lee Hyuk and Choi Jung-hoon's amusement park. ”

Lee Hyuk stared quietly at Lee Ah-young and kicked his tongue.

“Why are you here? Why?”

“The more amusing the amusement park is, the more fun it is. ”

Oh, yeah?

That's it, but...

Lee Hyuk tilted his head and Seo Ah-young struck.

“Sister!"

“Huh?"

Jung-min who was watching the situation in the corner raised his head.

“You'd better go too! ”

“Huh?"

Jung-min's head starts spinning.

Go to an amusement park.

Lee Hyuk's family.

It's nice...

Seo Ah-young, who felt annoyed, ran to Jeong-min and gave her mouth to her ears.

“He's coming, too. ”

“I want to go! ”

Lee Hyuk flinched at the immediate response of Jung-min.

Bang, bang.

“Huh?"

A white hand protrudes out of the shadow and grabs Yi Hyuk's leg.

“What? You're coming, too? ”

The hand slides OK back into the shadows.

When Lee Hyuk was embarrassed by the sudden change, Kim Da-hyun's phone rang.

Kim Da-hyun answered the phone and nodded, then said to Lee Hyuk with a slight look.

“Sir... ”

“Huh?”

“Dasom's coming, too. ”

“Huh?"

What's going on here?

No, wait!

“But how did she know that? She called you. ”

Kim Da-hyun was unable to answer Lee Hyuk's question.

“I am well……. ”

Lee Hyuk, who was creeped out, looked around.

I'm being watched! I'm being watched!

His whole army must be watching him right now!

“Can't you take care of your brother? ”

Kim Da-hyun, who was accidentally hit by debris, was bent to a corner.

Seo Ah Young snorted at Lee Hyuk as if to look at it.

“We can all go together. ”

“Whatever you want! ”

Lee Hyuk shouted.

“You have nothing to do! No, no, no, no! ”

Seo Ah-young smiled.

“Then Choi Jung-hoon can't rest. I don't take annual calls. ”

“Wow... That's disgusting. ”

Lee Hyuk suddenly changed his teeth.

Why don't you help me get my sister married?

“Let's conclude. Either we go together, or we don't go together! ”

“Phew……. ”

Lee Hyuk, who had made a choice over and over again, grabbed my head.

What is it?

Why is this happening?

Seo Ah-young gladly smiled at him.

I felt cheerful because I felt like I punched Lee Hyuk.

“Knng... ”

Lee Hyuk sighed and said.

I felt like it would be more twisted if I made a situation to try to make something here.

Above all, the cold energy felt under the bridge was burdensome, and it was hard to avoid all of their eyes, even if Kim Da-Som found out.

I'd rather...

“Okay, let's go. Let's all go together. ”

His eyes gleam.

“Instead, if you interfere, I'll throw you all in the Pacific! ”

“What are you interrupting? ”

“There is such a thing. ”

Lee Hyuk looked back at Seo Ah-young, who was suspicious, and looked back at Choi Jung-hoon.

Yeah, what does a lot of people have to do with anything? All you have to do is achieve your goal.

“Let's set a date, then. ”

“Well, what makes you so uncomfortable? ”

As soon as Seo Ah-young finished speaking, she picked up her phone and called somewhere.

Seo Ah-young pronounced the phone blunt.

“We'll play tomorrow. ”

- What?

“I'm playing.”

- No, Director Seo! What the hell are you talking about? Explain yourself. You're saying the NDF is closing tomorrow?

“Yes.”

What are you trying to do?

“After we were formed, I worked without rest until now. No weekends, no special occasions. You can take a day off now. ”

- No, but when it does!

“I'll leave you on call. Okay?”

― Director Seo!

“Then should I really get back on holiday? ”

- Rest easy.

“Yes.”

Seo Ah-young, who lightly resolved everything, looked back at Lee Ji-hyuk.

“Tomorrow.”

“ ……. ”

I really don't have a plan.

Since when did he become a character like this... No, did he always do that?

When Lee Hyuk, who had taken away Seo Ah-young's nature, was subtly regretting, Seo Ah-young declared.

“Rest up tomorrow. ”

“Waaaahhhh!”

The NDF agents shout for inspiration.

I'm telling you, I've been back for half a year, and I haven't had a day's rest, and I'm back to my normal life, so I'm not complaining.

Jaebum Kim shouted and asked with a single smile.

“But who's on call? ”

“ ……. ”

Seo Ah-young stared at Kim Jae-bum without answering.

Jaebum Kim felt desperate in that look.

“Ah……. ”

It's me.

It was me. It was me.

Kim Jae Bum lowered his head and Seo Ah-young put her hands on his shoulders and said without drying out.

“Stand by. ”

“Yes……. ”

“Call me as soon as you get something. Make sure you check your emergency contacts. ”

“Yes……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon stared at the scene and strongly rejected.

“Tomorrow! Tomorrow? You know how much work I have to do now, but what if I take tomorrow off? Even if the sky falls, all this won't be over until tomorrow! I can't go! ”

Seo Ah-young gazed at Lee Hyuk without a word because of Choi Jung-hoon's resolute attitude.

“Huh?"

Seo Ah-young quietly approached Lee Hyuk and whispered.

“There's a lot of work to be done. ”

“But?”

“Why is there so much going on? ”

“I've got a lot of work to do. ”

“Does he have to do it alone? ”

Oh, yeah?

No, you're not.

More work means more people.Why does everyone have to suffer more?

“Maybe last time? ”

At Seo Ah-young's words, there was blood on Lee Hyuk's forehead.

Oh, right. I forgot.

“Wait a minute.”

Lee Hyuk went to Kim Jae Bum and said something, and got a phone number and called him.

“Hmm……. ”

An old man enjoying the afternoon breezy sunshine and hot coffee aroma.

Clean hair and a slight wrinkled face make me glorious.

The afternoon of the elderly politician was always busy, but also always free.

“Today, then. ”

Now that I have something to report to the President, I'm starting to prepare...

Larara.

At that time, the phone rang and the old man frowned.

I don't think I'll get a direct line at this time....

No one who doesn't know him should call him, and no one who does will try to interfere with his teatime at this time.

“Who……. ”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs tilted his head, looking into the liquid crystals of his cell phone with annoyance and anger.

‘I don't know... ’

If I hang up, I'll stop, but I don't like it.

“Hmm……. ”

I pressed the call button and put the phone to my ear.

“Who are you?”

- Minister.

Minister?

Who would say such disrespectful things to a Minister of the Republic?

How does a chodding kid get a phone number unless he's making a prank call?

I had an ominous imagination in the brain of the lower planets, which was about to disconnect the phone and get irritated.

No way.

“Who, who? ”

- It's Lee Hyuk.

“Hiic!”

Suddenly, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which received a phone call from Lee Hyuk, sat down.

Why are you calling me?

“W-what's going on? ”

- I told you to clear things up here the other day, but nothing seems to have worked out.

The lower castles closed their eyes.

I don't know what to do with this maniac.

“You don't seem to know it very well, but that's the way it works. Even if I give the order, it'll take some time to process. And the position of Minister is not powerful enough to change the organization chart as I want... ”

- Where are you?

“Huh?"

- Where are you right now?

“ ……. ”

You don't know that!

- No, he's in the Foreign Office. Just a moment.

“Huh? Huh? What's the matter? ”

- I can't talk, so I'm gonna go talk to him myself.

“No! Don't do that! I understand and I can explain! It's true! So stop for a second! ”

Stop it, you f-fucking idiot!

Don't come!

Don't come!

- But it can't be solved.

“I'll take care of it! I'll take care of it right now. Calm down! Yeah, what do you need? What do you need right now? ”

- Uh, hold on.

I thought I heard someone talking, but soon someone answered the phone.

― Minister, this is Jung-hoon Choi.

Son of a bitch...

He said he wanted to kill his sister-in-law smiling more than his abusive mother-in-law, and Choi Jung-hoon was more annoying than Lee Ji-hyuk.

“Yes, what do you need? ”

― First of all, I'm very sorry that I got this call.

Screw you, asshole!

If you were, you wouldn't have made this happen!

I'm crazy. What am I supposed to do with a human like that?

Seeing that, I felt a little bit of hatred for Choi Jeong Hun strangely disappeared.

Even though he's been on the phone for so long, Choi Jeong-hoon is staying next to Lee Hyuk and picking up all his shit.

“... So, what do you need? ”

- First thing tomorrow, we have to leave, so we need a replacement. In the long term, at least five people of grade 5 or higher are required to carry out office tasks. And there's too little funding.

“Money and manpower……. ”

- And here... it's so rural, it's hard to eat. It looks like you need to build a restaurant, so I need your permission to fund and hire people. It's an employee welfare problem there…….

You said you were sorry, asshole!

Is that a request from someone who's sorry? You want to build a restaurant because it's too late?

After a long time, he felt tired and helpless when he heard more requirements.

“Is that all you have to do? ”

― This is what I asked you to do the other day, but in the meantime, I need something else...

You have no conscience.

God damn hatred!

I'll send you to a deserted island if I have to do something about Lee Hyuk!

“But, you know, that's something you can solve in one day. Once you ask the Ministry of Defense for cooperation, and the NDF is in the presidential position, I should report it to you... ”

- Lee Hyuk wants me to change it.

“Tell him I'll make it right. You have to do it today! ”

- I'm sure you know that.

“Hnng... ”

Haseong, who hung up his phone roughly, stood up and shouted.

“Vice Minister! Send in the Vice Minister! Now!”

The secretary who was waiting outside responded loudly and moved forward.

“I won't die from the banishment. ”

The lower castle sat down on its chair and pulled out its cigarettes, bit it, and lit a fire.

I don't want to smoke indoors, but I can't help it.

“Only the best effort in Korean history.... ”

This is my country...

No, it would be the first time a country built on the Korean Peninsula has demonstrated such power since its inception.

Every time I got a call from the U.S. Department of Foreign Affairs, I was so proud of the tone of politeness.

“Then why are you so.... ”

I rubbed my eyes with my thick fingers.

I heard Anger and Blessing are coming together.

Who knew it was the same painter and the same good guy?

“Phew... ”

A deep sigh in the lower palace was telling him what he was going through.

It took one more person to realize that life is hard when I get involved with Lee Hyuk.
