The Returner

1. Why not? (2)

“Hello?”

Lee Hyuk awkwardly smiled at Kim Da-Som, who was waiting for him on the porch as if it were natural.

Kim Da-som stared at Lee Hyuk and glanced at him like a dog.

I think she's a little bright.

In the past, it was an image of something spicy, but in the meantime, the child seemed to have brightened up.

Lee Hyuk awkwardly turned his head as he opened his eyes like a puppy waiting for Kim Da-Som to pet him.

“How are you? ”

“Your brother?”

“Kim Da Hyun... aren't you home? ”

“I'm here.”

Kim Da-Som tilted his head as if to say something.

"Look at this guy? ’

He's hurt that badly...

He didn't say a word to his brother that he had suffered.

‘He's a subtle human being. ’

When I saw what he was doing, there was no man like him, but when I saw what he was doing to his brother, I couldn't be good enough... I had the ability to make people fall into a dilemma.

“Hnng, no. There you go."

However, Lee Hyuk stood up for no reason, saying that Kim Da Hyun didn't speak, it was vague to talk about the Americas.

If that's what you want, you'll have to keep your mouth shut.

It doesn't make any difference to say it, and Lee Hyuk shook his head.

“So are you feeling okay? ”

“Yes, I'm fine. ”

“Aren't the appendages bothering you? ”

“ ……. ”

There's no answer.

So why did you do it?

I tried to buy it and installed it... Stupid girl.

Lee Hyuk shook his head.

The appendix he knew was a gecko who didn't know about admission or reason or anything. If there were any recognition at all, I wouldn't have stopped Lee Hyuk so persistently.

It took over a thousand years for her and Lee Hyuk to have a little bit of consideration for each other or an interest or a human part.

But now that we've only gotten to know each other, there's no way the Appledrice would ever want to give us human consideration.

Probably rolling him to his death.

That way we can extract the data.

“Cheer up."

“… Yes. ”

The boy who had just been active quickly became dull because the grass died.

Lee Hyuk was embarrassed because he felt like he had done something wrong.

“Yes, do you want to come? Are you going home? ”

“Yes, go home. ”

“Need a ride? ”

“No, it's okay. ”

What's he doing here?

“Aren't you busy? ”

“Huh? Yeah, a little. ”

“Then you should get to work. ”

“Oh?”

Lee Hyuk tilted his head.

Is this the kind of character she used to be?

I think something's changed. Why?

After all your troubles with Apeldice, have you had any change of heart?

“Here.”

Lee Hyuk received her drink.

Takeover.

Just before Lee Hyuk takes the drink, Kim Da-som opens the lid and throws it out.

‘This... can't be anything, right? ’

I don't think I should be, but I couldn't help thinking about it because it looked a little strange today.

But you can't help but accept what you give.

I'll give you that one myself.

Lee Hyuk took a drink with a subtle emotion and took it to his mouth.

“I'll eat well. But why didn't you tell me I had to take you? ”

“I think about it……. ”

“Yes.”

Lee Hyuk drank a bunch of drinks.

“I don't think it's the innards that are interfering with outsiders.... ”

Phew! Phew!

Immediately, a drink burst out of Lee Hyuk's mouth like a fountain.

“Ugh!”

Kim Da-som screamed, avoiding the flying beverage.

“... I'm sorry. ”

I don't know if this is something to be sorry about, but let's just say I'm sorry.

And what did I hear?

Lee Hyuk tilted his head and looked at Kim Da-Som.

Kim Da-Som smiles at Bashi.

‘You're so pretty. ’

She's a little weird, but she's really pretty.

Lee Hyuk tossed the empty can and waved his hands.

“Well, I'll go first. ”

“Yes. Have a good day at work. ”

“Hmmm... ”

It gives me goosebumps because I feel subtle saying, 'Good luck with your work.'

Lee Hyuk waved his hands with a shaky face and walked towards the NDF.

It's gonna be a rough day.

Lee Hyuk was tilting his head, looking at the scene before his eyes.

Hmm...

That dog over there is definitely a glitch. And it was clear that the little dog next to him was captured alive as a girlfriend.

An ogre made of puppy shaped by Lee Hyuk.

When I asked Ozai, she seemed to like it because she was pretty for Ogres.

Then...

What the hell is that little puppy in front of him?

“You look like you're fighting. ”

Apparently, the noodle was curled up with her girlfriend and the dog's teeth exposed, and the noodle was curled up next to her head.

This looks familiar.

If it was a person and not a dog, it would be an exception.

Aargh!

Lee Hyuk coughed at the thought of biting each other soon.

“Heh-heh-heh!”

The dogs' gaze is on Lee Hyuk.

“... Hey, come here. ”

The noodles stumbled helplessly.

“What's going on? ”

Ojii doesn't lift her head.

Lee Hyuk wants an explanation from his dog.

Oh, isn't that a dog?

“Hmm……. ”

I understand the situation, but what the hell is that dog?

He looks like a real dog.

“… Ah. ”

Lee Hyuk stared at Noodles with open eyes.

“Yes! You had a girlfriend! ”

Queek.

“You crazy bastard! ”

Lee Hyuk looked at the mischief because it was ridiculous.

When Ogres came to Earth, they asked me if I would catch them, so I was in a frenzy. When I said she was a female, I thought my mouth was ripped open.

I was surprised at the fact that such diverse expressions of emotion were possible in the form of puppies!

Come to think of it, this guy?

“If you cheat on your client, you will be punished? ”

Queek.

“Ha, you bastard……. ”

I understand.

What would the faction do differently?

No matter how urgent it is, Ogres can't hang out with dogs like humans can't.

I understand, I understand.

I understand...

‘Things got a little messy. ’

I don't care about the pet lover, but I felt something was wrong to just ignore what I saw with my eyes.

Lee Hyuk turned his head and looked at the only dog here.

But the dog couldn't recognize anything with his face, like the individual or the ogres.

But he's gonna have a fever.

I'd do that to a dog, wouldn't I?

“Heheheh, actually, I'm a little used to talking about this... …. ”

Lee Hyuk gave a speech first because she became a mother-in-law who opposed her son's marriage.

“You're not one of them. It's a love that can't be fulfilled. So why don't you pull yourself together and try to find another handsome dog? ”

How can a dog understand a human being?

However, Lee Hyuk kept talking to his dog as if something was wrong.

“Well, technically, he's not that good of a boyfriend. Violent, meatlight.It's cute, but it's a beast. So that's it... ”

“What are you doing?"

“… hmm? ”

Lee Hyuk turned his head and looked up.

Jung Jeong-min was looking at Lee Hyuk with a face like ‘What are you doing?'

“Well, no, that's... ”

How should I explain this situation?

By the time Lee Hyuk was embarrassed, Jeong-min had simply solved everything without waiting for an answer.

“What's with all the dogs? This is not a fucking place! Heave!”

Jung Jeong-min kicked his ass lightly, and the puppy smashed and ran.

“Hehe.”

Lee Hyuk swallowed up his tears as he watched.

Forgive me.

It's because I forgot.

“What's wrong with you? ”

“There was a sad story. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“You'd better not know. ”

Lee Hyuk stood up and kissed the butt of the fig! I kicked.

“Don't feed me for a week, bitch! ”

Broken grain!

Lee Hyuk shook his head and headed into the building as he fled to the corner.

Anyway, everything is rotten inside.

Phew.

“Talents have been used to block gates. ”

“That's right.”

“But now I'm going to war. quite simultaneously. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Seo Ah-young tilted her head.

“Why does that matter? ”

“It's war.”

“So why is that? ”

Choi Jung-hoon looked at Seo Ah-young with a severely stiff face and said like a heavy tone.

“War is for humans. ”

“… Yes? ”

“Talents attack humans. Don't you know what this means? ”

Seo Ah-young's face was severely stiffened.

I didn't know what it meant just after hearing the word war, but after hearing Jung-hoon's words, I felt how serious the situation was.

“To date, talented people have not been the object of fear of being targeted by timing and jealousy. But when there's a war going on, and talents are going into battle, the story changes. that the people who have been protecting them so far have always come to realize that this is the kind of weapon that can put a sword in them. ”

“Isn't that a terrible thing to say? ”

Seo Ah-young, a capable person, was moved by the idea of that weapon.

“Ha……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon shakes his head.

“It doesn't matter if you tell me. Most people would think that. ”

“Ah……. ”

“Now you can still fix it. But there's no turning back if the talented people show up on any footage of them attacking ordinary soldiers. I can't even imagine the impact. ”

Seo Ah-young kept her mouth shut.

People will see abilities attacking soldiers, killing people?

Even if a foreigner killed only one person, it was today that the hatred of the country was heightened.

But how will those who saw it react?

“I have to stop it.... ”

At that time, Lee Hyuk walked inside as the door opened.

“How do I stop what? ”

“Lee Hyuk! ”

Choi Jung-hoon looked at Lee Hyuk and cried out.

“What's wrong with that? ”

“Hmm……. ”

Lee Hyuk shook his head.

“Not enough.”

“As expected……. ”

I tried to catch a straw in a hurry, but there was no way that it could be Lee Hyuk.

This was not a problem that could be solved by hard work.

It wasn't even a question with an answer.

“Above all, we have a perception that people in the world can use their abilities as weapons. And no matter how we stop it now, it's not going to happen again and again, and no matter how we stop it, it's not going to get worse. ”

“Mmmm... ”

Choi Jung-hoon stared at Lee Hyuk.

Sometimes it makes me think he's smart.

“There's nothing we can do. ”

“Well……. ”

Lee Hyuk sat down and scratched his head.

“You'd better focus on the gate for now. Please report to the top for image management. ”

“It's not easy either. ”

“Why?”

It's been under control so far.

Despite the recent deterioration in the image of the talented people, even though the decisive people have become unemployed, they won't be able to move if they know the seriousness of the situation at all.

“The situation in London has made things a little more subtle. ”

“Yes?”

Lee Hyuk looked at Choi Jung-hoon with questionable eyes.
