It was nice that he came out for a walk like that.

Even though I read it a lot, I was still a huge fan of this novel.

There’s no way you wouldn’t hate Kang Si-woo’s first heroine, Kim Yeon-hwa.

I put the first button… wrong… no, I put it in very wrong.

From the very first moment, she got hit in the stomach and vomited blood, and from then on, she was kept in check as a heroine.

It’s not something from a novel, and it’s ridiculous.

Still, originally, we would have become close friends by just talking about our interests.

Because there were a lot of things I wanted to ask.

In the original work, Kim Yeon-hwa never talked about her past.

He didn’t even reveal his age or birthday, so I couldn’t tell if he was 20 or 21.

A boyish girl. Out boxer. Virgin. Well, I only remember those properties.

I don’t know what kind of life he lived.

I think he said his parents were in the western part of Busan, but maybe he was dead.

Anyway, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask.

“Seeing you say Siwoo oppa… I guess you are a little younger?”

“Ah, yes.”

“By any chance, how old did you say you were? Have you ever said that to me?”

“I can’t spit on a smiling face,” he asked with a smile.

Anyway, everyone knows that I have poor conversational skills and that I can’t even talk to people I don’t know.

I guess I’ll just move on and say, “Oh, she’s being so insensitive again.”

But surprisingly, Kim Yeon-hwa’s expression was not dark.

Rather, he looked at me with a wide smile.

“I’m 19 years old. There’s still a little bit left until my birthday…”

“Ah, if you show your ID card, you are an adult. Is your birthday in winter? Fall?”

“It’s winter. November. As for your birthday… I’ll stop there. This is a secret from both Siwoo and Ayoung.”

“Yes, yes. I also have to keep in mind what I shouldn’t say.”

“Honestly, I was surprised by how heavy the mouth was.”

“What?”

“I’m just kidding.”

“….What is my impression?”

“They say anything will blow if you gently lure it with something to eat…”

Kim Yeon-hwa looked around carefully, then smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of her head.

Oh yeah. Something to eat. Something to eat…something delicious…

In fact, it wasn’t that no one approached me at all.

Even after all this, he is working hard as Kang Si-woo’s closest aide.

There were a few people who thought that if they could lure me in, they could get a job.

Of course, various offers and food were given.

I can’t tell Kim Yeon-hwa, but people recognize their peers.

I actively used my image to deal with people who approached me with such malicious intent.

I took advantage of the fact that I had a hard time eating it and ate it without anyone noticing! All you have to do is shout.

Then everything would end on its own.

The person who gave me something to eat was not embarrassed and spoke to me.

And he’s the one who maliciously gave him food… If Kang Si-woo catches him, that’s the end of it.

“Sister. Is something wrong?”

“No, I suddenly got chills.”

“Then something is going on.”

“I see…”

“When I look at my sister, she seems innocent, but it’s also strange because she doesn’t seem to be.”

“Me?”

“Yes. Just by looking at his facial expression and the words he often speaks, he seems like a traitor…”

“Me!?”

“But now if I look at it carefully, should I say it’s cute… Anyway, that’s right.”

I didn’t know whether to like it or be angry.

Because that’s the image I had in mind.

yes? Yeji Lee rebels or betrays? Is that a big deal?

Well, if this kind of public opinion spreads, it will be easier for me to move.

In the first place, he has no intention of betraying or rebelling, and he periodically hears warnings that are not warnings from Kang Si-woo.

So for now… it would be better to hear it as a compliment, right?

Yeah, why would Kim Yeon-hwa try to fuck me?

“It’s a compliment, right?”

“…Sister, do you just laugh and ignore it when other people say things like this?”

“Huh? Why…?”

“Well… I’ve seen it for a long time… but it seems like you don’t care about your body a little.”

“What?”

I couldn’t understand.

No, who cares about my body like I do?

If I didn’t care about my body, I would have continued to stretch my body towards Kang Si-woo.

In the first place, the reason I ran and worked every time Kang Si-woo called was because I wanted to protect myself.

But as I listened to Kim Yeon-hwa continue to explain, it seemed like that.

“What you mean is, if I’m not sure I’m going to die, I’ll just leave, right?”

“Yes. Like during that attack last time… Like when we first met…”

“It’s not like I can definitely say that. Write… what should I say.”

It was very strange because it seemed like it was true and sometimes it didn’t seem to be true.

So I sat down on a nearby bench and thought about it, trying to find a counterexample, but I couldn’t find anything to refute.

Until now, I have never really cared for my body very much.

The approach was always to push the body in first and think about it later.

Even when I was alone in a PC room, I started moving my body without thinking.

Because I would move foolishly without any of the usual armor, get hit, and then fight back.

If you ask me if things changed when I joined Noh Chang-hoon, that wasn’t the case.

While Noh Chang-hoon was fighting and cooling off his boiling body, I was trying to kill time with my body.

I felt like I wanted to think about this in more detail, but I knew it instinctively.

It was better not to think about this now.

It seemed to be related to what happened during those two weeks at the officetel.

It was clear that a headache was creeping up just thinking about it.

So, I changed the topic by appropriately agreeing with Kim Yeon-hwa’s words.

Fortunately, as the conversation progressed, he brought up the story of the boxing gym that his father runs.

“If it’s a seal… which way is it?”

“There is a shopping mall in Gaya 2-dong.”

“Where is it?”

“Sister, don’t you know about Inje University Busan Paik Hospital?”

“I don’t know?”

“It was Jang Yu… wasn’t it?”

For some reason, there was someone who often gave me food because I was from the neighborhood.

At some point, it seemed like misunderstandings had spread like this.

So I slowly corrected the misunderstanding.

I live in Seoul, and when I came down to Jangyu for work, something happened.

So, he said he didn’t know anything about Busan and actually just followed his colleague.

“Ah… Then you might not know. You can find it if you go a little east from Sasang.”

“Based on the campus…?”

“To the northeast.”

“Oh, is the distance close?”

“Yes. It’s not that far. To be honest, I feel like running away right now…”

“Ah….”

“As you know, this is not a place where I live alone. Because sudden action is not allowed.”

Yes, then I remembered.

Only after six months had passed since the outbreak of the incident did Kang Si-woo feel free.

The conversation with the military forces in the east ended smoothly, and there were a lot less things to worry about.

So, I clearly remember that from then on, people were mobilized to rescue the survivors.

The highest priority was people who contributed to the community, and among them was Yeonhwa Kim.

And during the first rescue, Kang Si-woo also went out together.

So I went with Kim Yeon-hwa to the place where her parents’ dojo was, and the result was…

It’s obvious, in this situation.

Kim Yeon-hwa’s parents had already become zombies a long time ago.

Kang Si-woo was not described in detail due to vague mention, but given the circumstances, he would have died several months ago.

I remember that Kang Si-woo tricked Kim Yeon-hwa, whose heart was broken, into burning her once.

But right now, it’s only been about two months since the incident broke out, right?

Even if you can’t do it, four months will go by faster.

As it happens, thanks to my joining, Kang Si-woo is pushing for reform more quickly.

I was able to walk well enough.

If we suggest bringing in more people for the purpose of rescuing survivors, it will also help boost morale.

Even if you can’t rescue them, just bringing a keepsake will provide some comfort.

Of course, you have to go out and find the families of the people you rescue first.

In this case, my family will be my priority.

Because he contributed so much to the community.

But as I told Kim Yeon-hwa earlier, I live in Seoul.

It takes a full 5 hours to travel from Busan to Seoul by car, so rescue is not realistically possible.

I want to give it priority, but even if I give it to it, I can’t use it.

So, it would be okay to hand over that priority to Kim Yeon-hwa.

“So what do you think?”

“Yes?”

Kim Yeon-hwa, who had been listening quietly, opened her mouth blankly.

Then, he forced a smile and stretched out his arms forward.

“I’m fine. You don’t have to do that for me.”

“You might regret it. And, I wanted to save more survivors anyway. On-site service… How about it?”

“If you can… thank you…”

Kim Yeon-hwa’s eyes were watery.

It was the reaction I expected, but I was taken aback when he finally hugged me and buried his face in my chest.

I didn’t expect this reaction.

It was very different from what was shown in the original.

Still, I didn’t feel too bad, so I hugged Kim Yeon-hwa and patted her back for a while.
