Despite the woman’s invitation to take a seat, the group couldn’t take a seat and just looked around.
Clothes scattered all over the room.
When I cleaned it up and sat down, even my underwear was mixed up, so I couldn’t even touch it.
Baekhwa asked back with an expressionless face.
“Where is it?”
“…….”
The woman scratches her head and spits out an excuse as she clears away the pile of clothes.
“But I still did the laundry first.”
“Ilho, coffee.”
Ilho, the man who acted as the leader of Rider Jacket.
He asked, throwing the baseball bat in a corner of the room without much resistance to the coffee errand.
“Can’t we mix those too?”
“Like~”
In response to Hye-ji’s answer, he throws open the window and shouts loudly.
“Hey, coffee here is 4 for 5!!!”
“I understand!”
To put it in a good way, it seemed carefree, but to put it in a bad way, it was messy.
‘Why aren’t you on guard…?’
It’s a strange situation where you’re not too alert, but rather nervous.
The Virgin Mary exchanged glances with her companions with a hardened expression.
Make eye contact and nod.
Nod.
As the group of five exchanged glances,
The woman who saw this sat down in her seat and asked.
“Have you decided on any signal?”
Legs wide open in a sweatshirt.
The way he rested his elbows on the table and rested his chin exuded an easygoing attitude.
“It is natural to have some degree of caution.”
“Is that so?”
He shook his head as if it was no big deal, and then got straight to the point.
“So, why is there a person named Unseong?”
Is there “…?”
He nods his head as if it were natural to Seongmo’s question.
“Well… His condition is a little bad, but he’s still alive.”
“…I see.”
Even though she pretended to be relaxed, her mind was busy.
‘Why did this bastard just naively bring someone over!’
‘Out of the five, two men are talented, and what about the other three women?’
Ilho, Isaac, Dongho.
I looked at the three combinations, but they just had a big smile on their faces.
It seemed difficult to determine who was capable in that situation.
‘…You bastards in heat. ‘I’m sure they brought it here because it’s pretty.’
My younger brother and his two friends.
It was a duo of four people who had been together since childhood, but this time, even Jigiri was no help.
“Shall we start with the full statement? Nam Darae, the representative of Daegu Union. What about that?”
“Seo Ji-su from Gangwon-do and Han Seong-guk.”
In response to Jisoo’s stiff answer, Hyeji hurriedly continued speaking with an awkward smile.
“Haha… That older sister is a bit stiff, isn’t she? My name is Hyeji!”
“Whitening.”
“This is Jang Seong-mo.”
“Midwinter.”
After everyone takes turns saying hello, Darae introduces the three riders, pointing to their respective jackets.
“In that order, Ilho, Isaac, and Dongho. Even if he looks like that, he’s nice.”
Every time a hand gesture is directed towards them, the three musketeers nod their heads and give a light greeting.
‘Han Seong-guk…?’
He proudly declared his name and even created a kingdom.
Even though the situation was different, it was a little embarrassing that he proudly added ‘guk’.
“Han Seong-guk?”
“Yes.”
‘…please give me a longer answer!’
If it had been Ilho, I would have already hit him in the back of the head a few times, but
Darae calmed down and asked thoughtfully.
“What is the purpose?”
“As I already mentioned, we are looking for a person named Kim Un-seong.”
“So what is the purpose?”
“It’s a secret.”
Negotiation requires understanding the other party’s true intentions while hiding as much as possible.
It was an easy task for the Virgin Mary.
‘It’s annoying.’
Of course, it was unpleasant for Darae.
‘I guess I’ll have to feed it anyway.’
As Darae waved her hand, Ilho brought the coffee that was left outside the door and shared it with her.
“Thank you~!”
“…Uh.”
Hyejiman smiled brightly and expressed his gratitude.
Seongmo takes the coffee and puts it on the table.
“We are all allergic to coffee.”
“Yeah..? Then at least water.”
“I’m not thirsty.”
Darae laughs in vain at the sight of Seongmo showing caution, but then frowns.
“Are we being poisoned?”
“Yes.”
Hearing Seongmo’s confident words, Darae motioned to Ilho.
“Hey, Ilho. Drink this.”
“… Ah, they even made me drink it and confirm it, so they just told me not to eat it.”
“Drink!”
Ilho grumbles at Darae’s coercive words, sticks out his mouth, walks over, and gulps down his coffee in one go.
“It’s sweet!”
He even tapped it on his head to indicate that he had finished drinking.
It seemed like nothing had happened, but to the Virgin Mary, it was no different from a useless show.
Just before drinking, Ilho thought with deep disgust.
[Ah, I guess I have to suck on candy again… .]
Those words reminded Seongmo of one drug.
insulin.
It is one of the hormones secreted by the human body and plays a role in storing blood sugar.
One of the medications taken by diabetic patients.
‘It won’t be absorbed through the stomach… Well, there’s no point in considering that anymore.’
There are also colleagues who use acupuncture as ointment.
It was hard to even say that the insulin I was taking was strange.
“… Don’t you drink coffee?”
“Okay, you drink it.”
Ilho drinks all of his friends’ coffee and drinks three more cups in no time.
In order to avoid hypoglycemic shock, you need to cram in as much sugar as possible.
I frowned as if I had a headache, but there didn’t seem to be any major problems right away.
“Now, drink.”
“I don’t drink it. Don’t fight for no reason, right? I didn’t come here to fight.”
“…….”
Darae, who was glaring at Seongmo, flops down on the sofa.
“You’re quick to notice.”
“Is that person, Ilho, okay?”
At Seongmo’s words, Darae took out chocolate and threw it at Ilho.
“Hey, eat.”
“No, sister!! If it’s going to be like this, why did you throw it away!”
Seongmo, who felt that the atmosphere was a little in their favor, made a suggestion.
“I can’t tell you in detail, but I won’t deny that that person named Unseong is an important person to us. Since we’ve already seen five ‘talented’ people gather together and go looking for them, making excuses will only make them look pathetic.”
“So?”
“What do you need?”
The Virgin Mary asked, showing both hands as if she could give anything.
‘food.’
‘approximately.’
‘Oil.’
Numerous things pass through Darae’s mind.
It seems that the situation in the group is not very relaxed.
The corners of the Virgin Mary’s mouth trembled slightly, suppressing a faint smile.
“Oil.”
“We don’t have any oil either.”
Food is quite generous.
If I had to choose between food, medicine, and oil, I definitely had to give food.
“Tell me what you need.”
“You told me you couldn’t give it to me, so I have no choice.”
I was irritated by the lack of concessions.
Speaking of fighting, there are only two combat positions on the Darae side.
On the other hand, it was unknown what abilities the five opponents possessed.
Moreover, it goes against Darae’s principle of ‘let’s resolve it through dialogue’.
In the end, in order to reach an amicable and advantageous agreement, we had to somehow regain control of the conversation.
‘Fuck…she should be wearing something pretty.’
Even though I was grumbling, I started to focus on Unseong, who was my only clue.
“Obviously that bastard did something… .”
Then Dongho shouted loudly as if he didn’t know.
“Huh? I did not know? That bastard was caught acting like an old man.”
“Really? What are you doing?”
What is “… Did he say he was a very high-ranking official?”
“Where?”
He patted his head a few times and frowned,
As if he had noticed, he slapped his thighs together and shouted.
“Ah! Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power!!!”
‘…Fuck.’
In response, a wrinkle appeared between the Virgin Mary’s eyebrows.
A smile bloomed on Darae’s lips.
“Oil won’t be enough, right?”
***
High-ranking official at Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Corporation.
The need for that person meant that they were going to take over the hydroelectric power plant soon, or that they had done so.
‘When you think of Gangwon-do, you mention hydroelectric power plants, but I didn’t think of that.’
A smile bloomed on Darae’s face at the thought that if things went well, she could obtain a large amount of electricity.
“Please include us too.”
“…No.”
“Then of course I won’t give it to you.”
A tense fight with no room for negotiation.
In the end, Jisoo came forward.
At the speed of light, he takes out the dagger that was fixed to his thigh and brings it to Darae’s neck.
“…What!”
“Fuck!!!”
The Three Musketeers with bats again.
Winter and Hyeji blocked their path.
“Give me.”
“… Do you think you can do this now and return safely?”
“Shall we kill them all and go find them?”
With cold eyes that showed deep confidence, Darae raised both hands and expressed her intention to surrender.
“Surrender.”
“Don’t just say it, bring it.”
“Ilho, bring that guy. Everything will be resolved if you show it anyway, so there’s no need to fight, right?”
“… Well, that’s true.”
Ilho, who had messed up his hair, threw the bat again and left the room.
“Hyeji, I followed you.”
“Yes…!”
Hye-ji, who gave a firm answer in a tense atmosphere, smiled awkwardly and crossed Il-ho’s arms, looking a little embarrassed.
“Shall we go?”
“Yeah, right…?”
Even with a knife pointed at her throat, Darae sips her coffee.
“Your arm doesn’t hurt? Just put it down, right?”
“If confirmed.”
“Anyway, this is a world where only good people lose? Just because I can’t do it the way I want, I put a knife to my throat.”
“mouth.”
The feeling of cold metal in my neck.
I try to act relaxed, but I end up drooling.
20 minutes like that.
Ilho’s voice ended the cold silence.
“I brought you!”
“Fuck you! Come quickly!”
“It came quickly!”
Il-ho, who returns with Hye-ji, puts down the man he was carrying on his back.
Clearly, that face is Kim Un-seong, whom the Virgin Mary read.
but….
“Hey…about!!! Please give me some medicine!!! Darae!!! Hey… medicine!!!”
There are also situations where an answer can be drawn.
It wasn’t even a situation where I could read thoughts.
“Sister, you should put away the knife, right?”
A fresh smile, confident of his victory.
Jisoo had no other options.
“…What did you say you needed?”
“Well? I guess I need to pay some alimony now, right?”
“…….”
Negotiations began to flow one-sidedly.
