Seonbae (Yudong) – Is this bastard for real?

* Seonbae (Yudong) – Is this bastard for real? (3)

Without knowing that his seonbae-nim was squeezed between the bulky bodies, making onggoooooooot sounds while riding in the car, Junseo just sat in the center of the black vehicle with his legs crossed, his face as fearless as ever. Of course, the bald Jang Mun-sang was driving. He had only brought the minimum number of subordinates with him, and Mun-yeong was also riding along.

“I’m troubled because it seems like Doryeon-nim is falling into a bad path… Won’t the elders’ stomachs melt away…”

“It’s none of your concern.”

“But you’re taking Doryeon-nim to a place that human made, right? I can understand Mun-yeong Agassi’s worries. Shouldn’t we be worried instead?”

“It’s Doryeon-nim who decides that, not you guys. Don’t spoil Mun-yeong. She’ll make fun of my head again.”

“Are you still holding that grudge…”

“He’s big, but so petty…”

The atmosphere inside the car was surprisingly haha-hoho, like a normal family. Even Mun-sang’s subordinates, who weren’t blood-related, were joining in on the family conversation, so Junseo could relax and almost forget the sound of the splashing he heard earlier. He didn’t completely let his guard down, but once he knew that these people weren’t going to harm him, he didn’t get unnecessarily nervous.

“What kind of place are we going to?”

“Didn’t you hear it from Mun-sang hyeong-nim?”

“He asked if I liked strong women, and when I nodded, he said he’d take me to a place my father made. I heard it’s a hostess bar, but I still don’t really know what it is.”

“This hyeong-nim just cuts out all the details and calls Doryeon-nim?”

The bald man, who was holding the steering wheel, scratched his head with his index finger as if looking for non-existent hair. Even the subordinates turned their heads, as if it was hard to say what kind of place it was, so Junseo guessed again.

“Are there even corpses lying around? Why is everyone so quiet?”

“It’s not that far.”

Someone carelessly spat out a word, and he quickly got a sense of it.

“If it’s not that far, then is there blood splattering around?”

“Yes.”

“Ooya.”

As expected, the bald man immediately gave the correct answer. Mun-yeong was fidgeting anxiously in the car, but no one scolded her.

“You’ll be able to indirectly experience how bad our big hyeong-nim’s personality is.”

“I know it well.”

“Is that really so? Seeing it on a USB and experiencing it in real life are worlds apart.”

Come to think of it, this bald guy helped film that video…

Seriously, is it USB-level?

Crazy.

Junseo belatedly remembered that fact. He hadn’t checked all the contents of the USB, but if he had to pick the most shocking scene, it was definitely the tooth extraction and bug biting. As someone who claimed to have relatively normal sexual tastes, Junseo couldn’t understand it at all. The screams of Ha-eun nuna-nim he heard at that time were still in his ears, and he heard there were several videos even worse than that, so he suddenly felt the blood draining from his face.

“I’m not really into gore… It’s fine if you can’t be satisfied with family, but cutting off limbs and stuff is a bit…”

“Are you still bothered by what happened in the slaughterhouse? Don’t worry. It’s not as bad as Doryeon-nim thinks. Besides, this isn’t a village, it’s outside. We’re playing around at a level that we can handle, so you can rest assured.”

“How many people in this world can be reassured by those words?”

“Who knows?”

The bald man chuckled in a way that didn’t suit his character, looked around, and then stepped on the accelerator again. The salty scent of the sea flew in through the wide-open window and permeated Junseo’s nose. Wearing a suit over a red shirt, dressed like a host just like back then, he waited for them to arrive at their destination and faintly noticed the destination in the distance.

If you look to the right, you can see a long road that runs along the beach. An ordinary road that connects cities. Therefore, all you can see from here is the road or the mountains, and there’s no way out. Usually, you wouldn’t stop here, so they went a little further, turned off the road, and went down to a village huddled in front of the beach.

‘This is a place I’ve never been to before.’

It’s literally a seaside village. There are several small boats, probably for fishing, and the nearby buildings are just shabby stone walls. You can tell how old it is just by looking at the fact that they knock on the iron gate instead of using a doorbell. There’s no way there could be a huge building in the city, and even the place that looks like a hotel is barely maintained on the second floor, and even that is so old and run-down that it’s not a place you’d want to take a woman. A love hotel in the shape of a castle with a tripod that looks like it’s about to break and fall down. I can’t even guess what year it was built.

“We’re almost there.”

It’s getting dark, so the whole village is dark. The buildings are already damp, and there’s only one road into the village, so you won’t get lost, but you can’t see anything in front of you anymore. As they drove along the only road into the village, they could see several buildings selling fishing supplies and raw fish restaurants were open. Conversely, all the buildings except those two were dark, so it felt like a ghost town.

What the hell is in a place like this?

It’s creepy.

He could see a few old men walking between the dark buildings, but Junseo couldn’t shake off the unpleasantness. The village he lived in felt anachronistic, but this place felt like it had lost all its energy because it hadn’t been developed and young people had left. There were even old cats staring blankly at the fishing nets and drying peppers on the streets in front of the road, so it wasn’t a place that a young man would like at all. Jang Mun-sang stopped the car in the parking lot in front of the raw fish restaurant, wondering what he was doing in such a place, and got out first. Then he opened the back door where Junseo was and poked his head in.

“Is it here?”

“Yes. Let’s walk from here.”

He parked the car in front of someone else’s raw fish restaurant without any worries and led Junseo. Then he went between the buildings and alleys where all the lights were off and headed towards the love hotel he saw earlier. The lights weren’t completely off on that side, and a pink and blue sign was flashing, enticing customers.

‘Hostess bar?’

He realized something was wrong there. He found a bar sign right next to the love hotel, and when he moved around the outside of the hotel, he soon found a new sign and a small staircase leading down to the basement. The stairs were so narrow that two people couldn’t go down together, so Junseo thought…

In front of it…

“Hey, hey, shit.”

“You clueless bastard!”

“Kolk?!

Scruffy men who didn’t look like the men the bald man was leading, not even wearing suits, punched their colleague in the head and looked at Junseo’s group. The guy who was smoking spat out what he was holding on the floor as soon as he got hit and bowed his head.

“Kolk kolk! Keuk, I’m sorry!”

“Welcome! Mun-sang hyeong-nim!”

“We’ve been waiting for you!”

Anyone could tell that they weren’t the kind of guys Jang Mun-sang would lead around. They were dressed scruffily and weren’t in good shape. Besides, the bald man, who had been smiling all day, frowned for the first time because he didn’t like their reaction.

“Tsk…”

‘They’re completely different from the guys in the village.’

Junseo realized then. That the men next to him were the ones that this bald man’s organization, as big as it was, had filtered out and brought into the village. When he thought about it, wasn’t it obvious? They were all gangsters who politely used honorifics to him, even though it was their first meeting. It was a scene that showed how hard Jang Mun-sang had worked to filter out people.

“Where are the guys who came earlier?”

“They’re waiting downstairs!”

“Okay.”

Jang Mun-sang went ahead, saying that the stairs were dangerous. Mun-yeong, the subordinates who followed, and Junseo were about to go down in that order. Those idiots were acting like gatekeepers here, staring at people’s faces, but they had no tact.

“The guy at the back is someone I’ve never seen before. Look at the quality of his suit.”

“Seeing as they brought him here, I guess he’s our junior?”

“Huh?”

“Really?”

“Didn’t you see the guy who came first? He was trembling, not even knowing why he was here.”

“It feels like we’re having a new recruit welcome party.”

“Awesome, another chot-bap has come~! Will my workload decrease now~?”

“It was fucking annoying to go far to buy cigarettes, but this is good. We can fill the gap with that guy.”

They should have said it after Junseo’s group had all gone down. The building was shabby, so they didn’t think their voices would echo on the stairs. Jang Mun-sang, who had stopped first, turned his head back with an expression that he didn’t understand what he had heard at first, wondering how cheerful their laughter was.

“………?”

First, Jang Mun-sang turned his head with a question mark on his head, then Mun-yeong, who was following behind him, turned her head with a question mark on her head, then the bald man’s subordinates, who were following behind him, turned their heads one by one with question marks on their heads, looking up the stairs like a scene from a horror movie. Junseo, who was walking behind them, almost had a heart attack at the bizarre sight, but he was relieved that their anger wasn’t directed at him and stuck his back to the wall of the stairs.

“Mun-sang hyeong-nim, let’s go down first.”

“I’m going to buy some cigarettes for a while.”

“Okay.”

“Doryeon-nim… me too…”

“Do as you please.”

The two men who were walking right in front of him turned around, laughing nonchalantly. They squeezed into the gap that Junseo had made by sticking his back to the wall and went back up the stairs, and Mun-yeong followed behind them. Those three laughed their heads off, saying 「Those crazy bastards have gone insane」 in a tone they couldn’t use in front of Junseo, and the bald man awkwardly turned his head.

“Let’s go down.”

“Is it okay to leave the store alone?”

“Mun-yeong is an adult, so what does it matter to me if she smokes or drinks? There’s no place to buy cigarettes nearby, so it’ll be a little late, so let’s enjoy ourselves first.”

‘He knows I didn’t ask that in that sense…’

Junseo didn’t think it was necessary to press him, so he started moving again. As he slowly walked down the stairs, he felt a faint scent of perfume cover his nose and his body gradually heat up. He could hear applause and men laughing loudly, wondering what was going on inside.

「Wohooooooooooooo!!!!」

‘Isn’t that Yudong hyeong’s voice?’

With a feeling that he was about to see a funny sight.

Junseo and the bald man soon had a funny sight etched in their eyes.
