Chapter 108 – Episode 108 Phone Call With Minah
At Do-hyeong’s order, Ji-ah, Ji-seon, and Eun-ji had no choice but to upload the video they captured themselves.
Each video was uploaded to three different sites, each uploading it with their own hands.
The three cried in their hearts. Her face is said to have been pixelated so that it is unrecognizable, but not only did she take a video that was humiliating for a woman, but she felt like a crazy devil who made her post it herself.
“Then shall we stop here for today?”
After confirming that all the videos had been uploaded, Dohyeong stood up with his laptop in hand. As usual, after the game was over, she was trying to get out of the basement.
At the sight of Dohyeong, the three of them sat down, thinking they had finished playing one game today.
“W-wait a minute!!”
The person who screamed was Sujin.
Unlike the three who knew that Do-hyeong would leave the basement when the game was over, Su-jin had no idea about the rules of the basement, so she shouted out of fear that Do-hyeong would leave the basement forever.
“Huh? What is it?”
“Um, are we still here…?”
Sujin said, looking at her figure with anxious eyes. She felt like she was going crazy imagining being in an environment so different from the world she knew.
Moreover, she was afraid that if she stayed here, she would turn into something strange like Jia, Ji-seon, and Eun-ji, so she desperately cried out to Do-hyeong.
“Of course, right? You all live here now. It’s a hassle to keep it in each room, and anyway, it’s better to collect trash like you that can’t even be recycled.”
Before talking to Mina properly, all four people, including Mina’s assailant, Sujin, were planning to slowly harass her.
In addition, he planned to bring together the three people who had become his slaves and make them suffer endlessly, but after seeing Ara sincerely reflecting and apologizing to Minah and Minah forgiving him, Dohyeong’s mind changed.
She didn’t think there was any need to categorize people who couldn’t even truly reflect.
However, I had no intention of letting Sujin and Hyemin participate in the game. Because this game is for your assailant.
Instead, I was planning on teasing him differently instead of not involving him in the game like he did today. I planned to give them a mini-game-like mission and punish them if they couldn’t complete it.
Sujin and Hyemin couldn’t believe that they would be left here anymore and tears flowed down their faces.
In the end, Sujin cried, bursting out with the anger she had been holding in, and shouted at Dohyeong.
“Black! Hey, this bastard !! I have to be like something wrong !! I and you don’t care !! I don’t know who you are … It’s like this… Hehe…”
“Oh, that’s right! We have nothing to do with you, so why are you doing this… Min, did that bitch order you to do it? Did that bitch sell her body to you or something? That’s why she’s doing this…”
Match!
Following Soo-jin, Hye-min was also pouring out her anger and screaming when Do-hyeong’s hand flew out and hit Hye-min hard on the cheek. Thanks to this, inside her basement, Hyemin’s body rose slightly and fell next to her, along with the sound of Hyemin being slapped.
Hyemin didn’t understand what happened for a moment. She just found herself falling sideways when there was a flash of light. And she gradually began to feel a stinging pain fill her cheeks.
“Huh… I have nothing to do with you? Of course, that might be the case.”
Dohyeong continued her words in a voice that seemed to suppress his anger as much as possible.
“I’m just punishing you on Min-ah’s behalf. This has nothing to do with whether Min-a wants it or not. I can’t stand it when I see you destroying other people’s lives like you and living on with a smile.”
Even while listening to Do-hyeong, Su-jin and Hye-min did not understand why Do-hyeong was angry at them. She felt beyond angry and dumbfounded to think that Dohyeong might be taking revenge on them for his own way when Minah did not want it.
He said that he would judge them as if he were an apostle of justice. Just when I was about to become dumbfounded, I couldn’t help but be surprised to hear Dohyeong’s next words.
“Just like Minah, my life was ruined by school violence. That’s why I hate guys like you.”
“Well, like that…”
“The guys who bullied me are the three guys over there.”
Dohyeong pointed with his finger at Jia, Jiseon, and Eunji who were looking at them from a distance.
At that moment, it felt like all the unknown puzzles in Sujin’s mind were being put together at once.
Why is Eunji here?
She said that when she started harassing Minah, it was all because Eunji told her to. Of course, Sujin herself did not deny that she enjoyed teasing her as the intensity gradually increased. But she also remembered that before that, the reason Eun-ji made her bully was for the very trivial reason that she didn’t like her.
Before Min-ah transferred to the school, she said that it was disgusting to see Min-ah protecting the child she was bullying, and she half-ordered Soo-jin to bully her.
And later, she heard that the name of the child Eun-ji had been bullying was Do-hyeong, and that she was currently missing and declared dead.
But she got goosebumps when she thought that that guy had appeared again and was kidnapping not only Eun-ji but also her self and making her suffer.
“Besides, I gave you a chance. If you sincerely reflect on yourself and apologize to Mina, and Minah accepts your apology, I will release you. But you are not even truly reflecting, so why should I release you?”
“But… Then, ah, Ara really… Has she gone home?”
“I guess he was just fooled… He was forgiven by Minah and returned home. Oh, just in case, don’t expect him to call the police for you. I never let him talk about what happened here.”
In fact, Su-jin and Hye-min saw that A-ra did not return and thought she was killed by Do-hyeong. I thought there was no way he would let me go after he did something like this just by apologizing and forgiving me, but I was really surprised when Do-hyung said he actually let him go.
‘They really released it…? Just because Mina forgave me?’
Sujin couldn’t believe Dohyeong’s words. It felt like a lie to say that she had let me go by simply accepting my verbal apology and forgiving me.
But on the other hand, if that were true, she felt like it was the lifeline she had left, so she immediately cried out to Dohyeong.
“Well then, I’ll apologize again! I’ll apologize to Mina… Please give me a chance to be forgiven!!”
The moment he heard Sujin’s words, Dohyeong showed his emotions openly on his face for the first time today.
That is the feeling of disgust.
Dohyeong frowned and glared at Sujin, who had just shouted.
“Opportunity…? You think you deserve a chance?”
Sujin and Hyemin, who had been venting their anger just a moment ago, were unable to say anything at the sight of Dohyung suddenly starting to get angry. This was because I noticed that I was not in the mood to say a word.
“Are you really thinking that you’re sorry to Minah before being forgiven? If you want to be forgiven, you have to understand and accept what you did wrong. You can’t even do that.”
Do-hyeong, who was glaring at Su-jin and Hye-min, shifted his gaze towards Jia, Ji-seon, and Eun-ji who were looking at him from a little distance away.
Three people who, similar to the two people who just made them angry, do not think about their mistakes.
Even though a considerable amount of time had passed since they were kidnapped by Dohyeong, the three had not yet reflected on their actions.
Jia, who has become obedient to Do-hyeong, is not reflecting on her own mistakes. Rather, she just accepts the situation and does not blame Do-hyeong.
On the other hand, Ji-seon and Eun-ji felt more resentful of Do-hyeong for causing them pain rather than reflecting on their mistakes.
Ji-seon and Eun-ji were not stupid enough to not admit that the reason this happened was because of what they did in the past. They knew that if they hadn’t tormented Dohyeong and ruined his life, nothing would have happened.
However, understanding the situation with your head and coming out of your heart are two different things. It was really not easy to admit that you were wrong and not blame Dohyeong.
Although it is called revenge, it seemed like it would be so difficult to admit and reflect on one’s mistakes without blaming those who caused one’s pain.
As a result, while looking at the five trash people here, Dohyeong even wondered if Ara, who had sincerely reflected on her mistakes, was actually even greater.
Dohyeong would have taken the opportunity if he had just reflected on his mistakes, but looking at the guys who couldn’t even do that, Dohyeong felt that his revenge was justified.
“Just know that. I’ll be back tomorrow, so look forward to seeing what happens.”
After talking to the guys in the basement, Dohyung opened the door and went out.
@@@
That night.
Dohyeong was looking inside the basement through CCTV.
The five people who were awkward with each other gradually started talking, and eventually they could see the three people in the basement trampling the two people who came in today.
It was truly Eunji’s action to maintain power within a small society.
Anyway, this power ends when the palm time in the game box comes out.
“Hehe… I see you punished the trash again today…”
Dohyung was looking at the guys and thinking about what happened today.
Huh~ Huh~
His cell phone, which was normally like a watch, began to vibrate. Dohyung immediately realized what was happening and picked up his cell phone.
There was only one saved name floating there.
“Is it Minah…”
I remembered Mina’s words yesterday telling me to call her every night and thought about answering the phone.
In fact, there was no problem even if I cut off contact with Minah and live like this. As it is, she has forgotten Min-ah and lives only for her revenge. She can return to her past body a little while ago.
Still, if it was difficult for her to forget Min-ah, she could use her magic to massage her memories and make meeting Min-ah never happen.
But Dohyeong’s heart didn’t want that. His head screamed at him to cut off his relationship with Minah for revenge, but his heart did not follow at all.
“Huh… The human mind really can’t be controlled as it wants.”
Dohyung sighed and picked up the vibrating phone.
“Oh, I got it. Should I say good night? Anyway, I’m glad you got the call, Dohyung.”
Mina’s lively voice came from the cell phone. When I first met her, her despondent voice was so completely different that I was confused as to whether she was the same person.
“Your voice is really nice. Did something good happen?”
“Huh? That’s not true… Is it because I called you?”
Minah’s voice gave Dohyung a happy feeling, as if she was smiling at him right next to him.
“I can’t do this to anyone else but you… The scar is gone, but it still bothers me a little…”
Although things have certainly improved, Dohyeong thought that it would be difficult for a pattern that had existed for 10 years to change overnight.
“We have to change things gradually. So is there anything else you want to talk about?”
“Oh, that’s it~”
Minah immediately talked about what happened. She talked about her mother who was surprised to see her completely healed body, and how happy it was that her family, which had always been in a gloomy mood, burst into laughter for the first time in a long time.
She didn’t stop there and continued to laugh as she talked about strange customers during her part-time job at a convenience store. Dohyung was in a position to just listen and react, but he felt happier than he expected.
“That’s what happened. But…”
Minah, who was talking happily, suddenly trailed off and couldn’t speak right away. Dohyeong wondered what was going on and waited for Minah to talk.
“… Did you get your revenge today too?”
“… Yes.”
After hearing Minah’s story, Dohyeong understood why Minah didn’t ask right away. It was strange that she asked me this story while laughing.
“So can you tell me what she did?”
“… What?”
“I want to know what happened. Can’t I…?”
Dohyung didn’t understand why Minah bothered to ask this. Not only is it not a very enjoyable story, but it also has to mention the names of the perpetrators, which would be uncomfortable for Minah.
So Do-hyung thought about lying and saying that nothing much had happened.
“Don’t lie, tell me the truth…”
For a moment, Dohyeong was surprised, thinking that his thoughts had been read.
“… Okay, I’ll tell you. Today…”
Dohyung, who was worried about lying, told Minah the truth. He said he abused her by making her sing today’s song, and as punishment, he uploaded a video of her having sex with him on the Internet.
There were some things she didn’t want to tell Minah, but she had no choice but to tell them when Minah asked her not to lie.
As Minah listened to the story, she didn’t say anything. In her mind, she wanted to tell Do-hyeong to stop seeking revenge, but she knew that with words like this, she wouldn’t make it easy for Do-hyeong to stop.
So, she decided to call and talk every day like today and chip away at the solid rock of revenge in Dohyeong’s heart.
I don’t know how long it will take, but I hope that Dohyeong will not be destroyed at the end of his revenge.
