Chapter 98 – 98 Apology

Dohyeong took out the camera he had prepared and installed it in a place where the three people could be easily seen.

In the direction Dohyeong is looking at, Ara, Hyemin, and Sujin are tied to chairs in that order.

“From now on, I’m going to take turns apologizing… But before that, wouldn’t it be good if you all found out what you did wrong? One by one, tell me what you did wrong to Mina. First, you.”

Dohyeong was the first to point out Ara with her finger. When she was singled out first, Ara was startled and her mind turned completely white.

“Well, that’s… I mean…”

She clearly knew that she had done something to Minah, but it had already been 10 years, and when she suddenly asked, Ara couldn’t think of anything, so she couldn’t answer Dohyeong’s question.

“Okay, that’s it. Then, go for a thrill~”

“Huh? What is that, keaaaaa!!”

Before Dohyeong could even realize what he was saying, Ara started screaming from her immense pain. It was made to look like electricity flowing naturally through a mechanical device, but Dohyeong cast a spell to allow electricity to flow through Ara’s body for about two seconds.

Sujin and Hyemin, who were watching Ara next to her, were also startled by Ara suddenly screaming. She screamed for about two seconds before Ara stopped screaming and helplessly lowered her head to the side, gasping for air.

The sight of Ara gave the two people goosebumps. When Ara let out her scream, she distinctly heard Ara’s crackling sound coming from her chair.

‘Crazy… Are you sure they’re going to use electricity?’

The two people thought that they had to answer Do-hyeong’s words unconditionally for fear that they would end up in the same state when Ara was tortured with electricity.

“Okay, you’re next.”

Do-hyeong pointed out Hye-min, who was next to her, and when she realized that she had been singled out, Hye-min quickly responded to avoid being like A-ra.

“Yes, yes! I started a fight by hitting Minah on the head while she was sitting still in the classroom!”

“Okay, that’s what I’m saying. Now, shall we continue on our own?”

Dohyeong turned his attention to Sujin, who was tied to his chair. Sujin opened her mouth as she saw her figure looking at her and realized it was her turn.

“Well, I incited the other kids to stay away from Minah so she was isolated in her classroom!”

After hearing Sujin’s words, Dohyeong nodded his head.

“From now on, just keep talking even if I don’t say anything. If you can’t speak or lie like that guy did before… You understand without me explaining, right?”

Except for Ara, who was exhausted from the immense pain, Sujin and Hyemin swallowed their saliva nervously.

“Then go ahead and… Start!”

At Dohyeong’s words, Ara screamed as if she had been waiting.

“Well, I threw water from the basket on Minah when she was in the bathroom!”

“I twisted Minah’s body and squeezed her skin, saying it was a weight loss massage!”

“I tripped Minah’s leg while she was walking down the hallway and knocked her down!”

The three people desperately vomited out everything that came to their heads because they did not want to be subjected to electric torture.

And they themselves were quite surprised. It happened 10 years ago, so I forgot about it after graduating from high school, but when I remembered it again, I felt like I knew how badly they had treated Mina.

“I said I was practicing to become a nurse… I forcibly cut Minah’s flesh and tied it with thread.”

“To test out a strange diet combination I saw on the Internet, I force-fed it to Mina!”

“After taking her to karaoke, I forced her to sing until she got 100 points, and every time she didn’t get 100 points, I poured a drink on her head!”

It was a time when the three people were spitting out their past one by one. It was Sujin’s turn again, and Sujin was going crazy.

‘Holy shit… I can’t think of any more…’

Among the three, Sujin was the one who looked down on and tormented Minah the most due to Eunji’s influence, so she erased most of the information about Minah from her memory, saying it was unnecessary.

So he was rapidly running out of things to say about what he had done wrong.

What little she remembered, there were some memories that had been sleeping in the back of her mind thanks to things the late Hyemin and Ara had said.

But that was only for a moment, and little by little I could think of nothing more.

‘Well, let’s just gloss this over for now. Anyway, that guy wouldn’t have been able to check exactly what I did in the past.’

Su-jin, who could no longer think clearly, when her turn came, she made up something that might have happened at school and talked about it as if she had done it.

She said, “When we went on a school trip, she put alcohol and cigarettes in Minah’s bag and deliberately got caught so the teachers would look at Minah in a bad light!”

After hearing Sujin’s words, Ara paused for a moment even though it was her turn. This was because I had no idea what Sujin had just said. Hyemin, who was next to her, had the same reaction in her head.

But for her, not being subjected to electric torture was more important than that, so she tried to talk about her past mistakes.

“For a moment!”

At that moment, her figure intervened and stopped Ara. Sujin became anxious when her Dohyeong, who had been listening quietly and carefully, suddenly showed a different reaction after what she had said.

Dohyeong looked at Sujin and made a dumbfounded expression.

“You mean… I said earlier that I was taking a lie detector test. Are you lying?”

“Uh, yes? Oh, no! I didn’t lie!”

Su-jin was momentarily taken aback by Do-hyeong’s words, which saw through her own lie, but she quickly stuck out her flippers and desperately shook her head.

“No, I lied. Now then, I will do as I said.”

“Oh, wait a minute! Just a minute, keaaaaa!!”

Do-hyeong passed electricity, ignoring Su-jin’s desperate cries, and Su-jin was able to feel how painful it was when the electricity flowed through her body.

Hyemin and Ara, who were watching next to him, saw Dohyeong catch the lie right away and thought that he should never lie.

Just like in Ara, about 2 seconds passed and the electricity flowing through Sujin’s body was cut off. However, Sujin fainted from the immense pain and lowered her head helplessly. In addition, as my strength weakened, I fainted and had to urinate as well.

“Well, I’m already fainting. I guess I still have a long way to apologize.”

Dohyeong made electricity flow once more toward Sujin, who had fainted.

Sujin, who had fainted from the pain, came to her senses as she felt extreme pain again.

This time, it lasted less than a second, so Sujin didn’t even have time to scream. It was just so painful that I came to my senses.

“Okay then, let’s keep going.”

“Sleep, wait a minute!”

As Dohyung was about to start again, Hyemin quickly intervened and stopped him from starting.

“Huh? What’s happening all of a sudden? Are you saying you don’t want to do it now?”

“That’s not true… I was just wondering how long I have to do this…”

Dohyung chuckled at Hyemin’s words.

“That’s it, until you tell all your mistakes.”

“Yes?”

“In order to reflect, you need to know what you did wrong. You probably didn’t even remember what you did wrong before you were caught here, right? That’s why I’m helping you bring out your true feelings.”

Dohyung didn’t lie at all about what he just said. In fact, the three were doing this because they wanted to see Minah offer a sincere apology.

She wanted to let Minah, who still has a bright future ahead of her, break away from the ghost of the past even though she could not forgive the perpetrator and ended up living a life tied to the past.

Of course, even if the three people who heard Dohyeong’s answer thought it was ridiculous, that was none of Dohyeong’s business.

“Then shall we keep going?”

As the relay about talking about their past mistakes started again, the three people racked their brains and poured out as many of their mistakes as they could remember.

In the process, there were people who experienced electricity because they could not speak, and there were also people who were punished for repeating what they said. As a result, there is no one who has not been subjected to electric torture, and it has been experienced at least three times.

As the three people were getting tired, Dohyeong thought that the time had come.

“I think you guys know what you did wrong at this point, right? Or do I need to do more?”

When Do-hyeong said that they could fall into the swamp of electric torture again, the three people who were unconscious due to the electric torture were startled and quickly shouted at Do-hyeong.

“Oh, no!”

“We knew it was all our fault!”

“I guess I don’t have to do this anymore!!”

Naturally, the three people shouted desperately, wanting to escape from this hell.

“Really? Then tell me first.”

Dohyeong pointed his finger at Sujin this time. When he was singled out, Sujin quickly shouted out before Dohyeong changed his mind.

“Min-ya, I did something I shouldn’t have done to you. I was such a scumbag that I only realized and apologized today! I’m so sorry! Please accept my apology!!”

Dohyeong silently read Sujin’s mind as she screamed. And it immediately electrified Sujin.

“Aaaaa!!”

“You haven’t come to your senses yet. You’re not truly reflecting. You’re next!”

Hyemin apologized, but she spoke in a trembling voice when she saw Sujin looking like she had taken a lie detector test.

“Uh, Min? I’m so sorry that when I was young, I didn’t know what to do and made you do a lot of weird experiments like a lab rat… I was trying to be pretty, but I shouldn’t have done something like that. I’m so sorry… I, I was such a trash!! I’m really sorry!!”

Hyemin believed that she was apologizing with all her sincerity and she cried out.

But what came back was Dohyeong’s electric shock.

“Aaaaa!!”

When Do-hyeong read Su-jin and Hye-min’s apologetic thoughts deeply, he sighed when he saw that they had not yet reflected on their actions and were apologizing with the intention of wanting to go home.

‘Then that’s right… There’s no way these trash can apologize properly…’

Dohyeong motioned to the remaining Ara and told her to apologize. Ara stuttered her words in a tearful voice.

“I… I’m sorry… Min, what I did was really crazy… I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…”

Dohyeong thought the result would be the same this time and tried to give him an electric shock.

But I couldn’t.

‘Uh? What?’

This was because Ara’s heart, read through the magic of shapes, was truly reflecting.
