74 – Last Chance

Time has passed since the day the terrorist attack occurred.

“Mr. Hangyeol.”

“Ah, Yumi. Thanks for your efforts.”

After successfully completing her fourth performance in Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do, Yumi smiled and clung to her Hangyeol, who greeted her with a smile as well.

“What is hard work? “It wasn’t a big deal.”

“Ah, but you performed four times. “When I go to a karaoke bar, I sing three songs and my voice hurts.”

They are both smiling and having a normal conversation, the two girls puffing out their cheeks at the sight, and even a couple looking at them with warm eyes.

It was still an ordinary daily life, but Hangyeol and Yumi’s minds were extremely complicated.

“Now this is the last performance.”

“I see. Was the last time a week later? “Where did you do it?”

“It’s Incheon. “My hometown.”

There is only one week left. There are only 7 days left before she performs her last performance and leaves Korea.

Han-gyeol is on guard, knowing that she only has 7 days left to do her job, and Yu-mi feels impatient just like his thoughts, and she continues to cling to him.

“Hmm, it’s a bit disappointing.”

“What is it?”

“It’s over soon…Our relationship too.”

“…I see.”

It is certainly a peaceful atmosphere to others, but-

“This is the last time, should we go on a date?”

“…Yes?”

“Even if it’s a date, it’s just about spending time together. I need an escort wherever I go. So, by the way – are you free tomorrow?”

Like the two girls who just lost their breath, for those who know the truth, their relationship is as dangerous as walking on thin ice.

“Then it’s my honor.”

“hehehehe. Then tomorrow-“

How long will this relationship last, and what will be the end?

No one knew the answer, and the boys and women walking down that path just smiled and promised the next time.

“I’ll see you in front of the park.”

“Yes. See you tomorrow then.”

They bow their heads to each other for the last time before turning their backs and leaving. The fourth performance, where nothing happened, came to an end, and they each started heading towards where they needed to go.

“-What?”

“I’m going alone this time.”

Hero Handsome puts down the coffee he was holding and sighs after hearing Hangyul’s words.

“What are you going to do if something goes wrong?”

He was taken aback by the declaration that he would meet Yu-mi alone, and soon tried to argue with Han-gyeol with a straight argument, but-

“Then on the other hand, what if I catch up with you this time and get caught?”

“…But.”

This time, I gave the opposite argument and couldn’t say anything else to Handsome’s words and just laughed bitterly.

It has been a long time since we heard that heroes were following us. There were clashes with villains, so in a way, it was natural. But what if I followed him to support him this time and got caught again?

“But rather than reacting after something happens, it’s better to prepare in advance and think about what happens next.”

Han-gyeol’s words also make sense. But the reason why Handsome is so anxious is,

“More than anything, you’re still young.”

This may be because he is still young, and has only been active as a hero for less than a year. What kind of teacher would just watch his student jump into a fire pit?

“Please believe me.”

“…Keuung.”

But Hangyeol’s attitude was firm, and Handsome could only sigh at his confident yet serious attitude.

“Let’s hear the reason. Why?”

As it is, it is not a matter that he can decide alone. This is something that must be decided through meetings with other heroes.

However, this does not mean that it is a problem that he cannot just overcome. She didn’t tell her heroes that she and he were moving in together in the first place, so she just had to keep her mouth shut.

So Handsome decided to listen to him and make a decision, looked straight at Hangyeol and asked-

“There are many reasons. First of all, we don’t know what they’re planning yet. If they find out they’re being watched, things might go wrong, and if that happens, we don’t know how Yumi’s attitude will change… For now, we have our suspicions, but in fact, it’s definitely a villain. “It’s not a thing, is it?”

“That’s right.”

“Then we have to check that, so if it’s really just the two of us left, we can change our attitude.”

Hangyeol continued speaking quietly and began to come up with valid reasons.

If she is a villain, she may reveal her true feelings when they are alone. If I go with the heroes like before, I’m sure I’ll get caught like last time. If nothing happens, if she’s not a villain – well, then it doesn’t matter because a good thing is a good thing.

Of course, if you leave out these correct opinions and reveal your true intentions-

“Well, there are more reasons, but for now it’s just a gut feeling.”

“Trustworthiness is suddenly dropping.”

I can only describe it as intuition.

Hangyeol smiled bitterly and revealed his true feelings, and Handsome sighed and shook his head.

After all, it doesn’t work. Hangyeol thought he would deny it, so she smiled bitterly, but-

“Don’t get caught.”

“…Yes?”

“What is it? That reaction. “I ask you to trust me.”

Handsome’s answer is completely opposite. It meant that I would trust him.

“If something goes wrong, I can just resign from my position as a teacher.”

“…I will make sure that never happens.”

“Okay. Then you have a hard time.”

Even as a joke, he does not say that he will not take any responsibility if he is caught or something goes wrong. He simply maintains the attitude of trusting and entrusting his students.

Seeing that, Hangyeol opened his eyes wide and looked at him, but then he smiled, bowed his head, and left the place.

“…You’re going alone?”

“Yes.”

“What if they are targeting Yumi?”

“Let me put it the opposite way, what if he notices you guys?”

Meanwhile, the dormitory where Yumi and the villains were gathered.

“Yes, but-“

“There is no reversal. “This is confirmed.”

The people who were talking there were no different from Hangyeol and Handsome.

“…Why on earth?”

“Didn’t I just say that? “The possibility of you being caught by the heroes – no, the possibility of being confident that you have already been caught.”

Yumi sips tea and gives examples of possibilities.

“Like Jinho said earlier, they must be suspicious. However, even if that is the case, I am not sure.”

“That’s-“

“It’s not speculation. You guys know that too, right? “If they were so sure, we wouldn’t be having this conversation anymore.”

There is no one watching them. I already knew that fact. Even if they are rotten, there is no way that the members of the evil brigade are incompetent, and even if people beyond their knowledge are watching, they cannot escape with their abilities, so we have to hope that they are not there.

“Contrary to what you think, heroes can’t do as much as you think?”

Assuming that there is no one watching them, it can be seen that they are not sure. That means that if you don’t give them room, you won’t be sure until the end.

“Well, even if I hear various reasons, my true intentions are different.”

“What are your true intentions?”

“…Jinho’s words keep lingering in my mind.”

I don’t trust heroes. It’s like an unavoidable physiological phenomenon. The instinctive reluctance to trust them cannot be helped unless her memories are erased.

Just-

“…Just in case.”

A hero who doubted himself but protected him until the end, and yet saved all the other citizens.

Han-gyeol wondered if something might be different, as assumptions that he would never have thought of before began to swirl around in his head, as if he had been deceived by his experiences so far and the words of the villain who cried out to him until he died.

“Yumi-“

“Well, the situation won’t be as dramatic as you think, so don’t worry. “Because that won’t happen anyway.”

“…I understand.”

Of course, the basic background is that it is to gain Hangyeol’s favor and attempt to brainwash him.

Heroes who truly save people probably don’t exist. Everyone is just acting for their own fame and profit – yes, just like the heroes we saw back then.

Yumi, confident that this would not happen anyway, smiled bitterly and closed her eyes.

The villains nodded and agreed to her words. In the end, it’s not like she can bend her will. That’s why they just trusted her –

“You guys focus on your work.”

“As you wish.”

The villains immediately bowed their heads and began moving to Incheon, the final location of the plan.

“My hometown, where everything began, is the final place.”

This will be the last stage. Incheon, a place that might be her last. And the last chance to determine the success or failure of the plan that will take place there.

“Well… It feels strange.”

She smiled bitterly as she recalled her plan in her head, then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
