Chapter 29 – 29. I Think It’s Possible.

In the original work, the ‘Truth Quest’ club room is close to Lee Do-joon’s hideout. A secret place where I often stop by and build up a good feeling with Jinlina. However, it is said that it may disappear.

‘… Are you saying it’s no longer a novel?’

It is because of the main character, Lee Do-joon, that the club with only two members, including the director, was able to be maintained. The writer intervened to weave the main character and heroine who will lead the novel.

One of the writer’s expedient developments collapsed. According to the principle of the principle, the academy presented two paths to the ‘Truth Search’ club. Either meet the number of people or leave the club room.

You shouldn’t think of the current situation simply as a ‘truth-seeking’ club. The club existence crisis was throwing very important information to me, who had fallen into the world of the novel.

Preferences that were not given to the protagonist may disappear. What does this mean? What should I know in the situation?

‘Lee Do-joon, the main character, is no longer the main character.’

Judging from the fact that he made a contract with the evil elemental spirit “Demonis”, It doesn’t seem to be that far. Shall we say that he is the main character who does not receive help from the writer?

‘It means that I may not be able to receive the main character’s buff.’

Write it as luck and read it as the writer’s heart. It is normal for everything in the world to flow for the sake of the main character, but now the possibility has increased that this is not the case.

Jin-ri-na, who was crying at the shocking news. He scratched his head as if the air was stuffy here. His yellow hair was messed up.

“Teacher, as you said… You mean we need to get one more person from our club?”
“Huh. If you don’t want to leave the club room, you have to fill it up.”
“Who is coming to our club? No one is coming, but I only got three people to sign up.”

When the other clubs were accepting double digits, the ‘Truth Search’ club only gathered three. Those three weren’t even proper members. One was more like a ghost.

Park Ah-young shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t seem interested in whether the club was gone or not. The existence of her club in ‘Truth Quest’ has nothing to do with her.

“I can’t help it. The kids say it’s not fun here, what should I do?”
“I am a teacher. If our club disappears, teachers have to take charge of other clubs. Don’t you hate being bothered?”

Jinlina widened her eyes as if she had struck a blow of conversion. She stares at Park Ah-yeong and urges her to come up with an answer. Park Ah-young shed such a smile and laughed.

“It’s okay to take charge of the club and then disappear. It would be better if this club disappeared. I can safely spend this year.”
“Aaaaang! I’m a teacher!”

Truth, I couldn’t even get her age right and harassed her. With her junior in front of her eyes, she clung to her teacher and begged her to spare her.

Even though she was like that, she wasn’t the kind of person who would do something. Park A-young was a woman who thoroughly maintained a bystander attitude toward the club.

She was nice because she was free in the original story, but in reality, she became only a burden when needed. Play and play games to your heart’s content, but take care of your future instead. I guess it’s like that kind of grazing parents.

‘The characters’ personalities are the same, but it seems like the real world is going around.’

The parts that were roughly skipped by the artist seem to follow the original flow. I was annoyed because I felt like I was trying to take care of probability.

“Shouldn’t we just save one more person, Jinri or Director?”
“… They won’t come even if I ask them to come, so how can I get them…”
“How long is the period, Mr. Park Ah-young?”

If you try to save one person, you can save enough. The important thing was to know how long to save it.

“One week? That much is left.”

Park Ah-young answered while sucking on the powdered butter from her fingers. Her calm voice, as if it were not her own, made people tremble.

“My friends are all members of other clubs…”

Jinlina muttered beside her. She seemed to be trying to appeal to the fact that she couldn’t do anything about it. Even if she didn’t say that, it didn’t matter because she already knew it all.

‘It’s true that all of them joined different clubs, but that doesn’t mean they’re all Jinri or friends.’

What kind of settings do you need to set up so that a senior in the second year can be attached to a freshman in the first year? For the sake of the senior heroine, it was necessary to induce a situation where the sophomore had no choice but to be with the freshman of the first year.

Club or student council. If the character is good-looking, there is no need for minor conditions, but Lee Do-joon is set to be ugly, so I needed a reason to put it naturally.

Jinlina spends most of her time at her academy in her club room. It was impossible for her to be a normal cadet. Contrary to how she looked, she had no friends, so it was a possible condition.

This is why I cried when I was notified of the closure of the ‘Truth Search’ club. Jinlina has no friends to ask for help. The situation is literally on the verge of ending.

‘… Is there anyone I can ask for a favor?’

If you ask me if I have friends, she can’t give me a definitive answer. I also tilt my head. The criterion of a friend here is whether or not it is possible to join the ‘Truth Search’ club.

She tried to recall the relationships she had built up. I only focused on getting to know the heroines. In particular, there was a lot of exchange with Gong Suji. I still have a sense of distance from Wang Ji-hee.

‘Dokgo Hwaryeon has already joined…’

Even though I was not active, I joined the club. The only person I could ask for was Suji Gong. Since I don’t have to be active, I should at least ask if I can join.

“Oh.”

As she took out her smartphone and was about to leave a message for Gong Suzy, Park Ah-young let out a sigh as if she had just remembered it. She’s scared because she can’t figure out what she’s trying to say.

“You have to report club activities every quarter?”
“Yes?”
“Our clubs also have to be reported to the student council every quarter. Otherwise, they said there would be no subsidy. Even if the number of people is full, you might have to leave the club room.”

A club that does nothing is meaningless. Especially if it is a club for entertainment only by the manager, like the ‘Truth Search’ club.

In a situation where she is pressuring her in all directions, Jin Jin-I ends up bursting into her tears. He blew her nose with an ugly look, wiping away her tears.

“My, my club… Do you have to disappear like this? I’m here or I have nowhere else to go… !”
“If you can’t fill one member, there’s nothing you can do. Aren’t there many countries that are disappearing historically? If our club also ran out of luck, it would be right to let them go.”
“Sir, I’m… !”

Park A-young had already left the ‘Truth Search’ club in her heart. It was not an ordinary skill to stop losing because I wanted to at this time. In this case, is it not a stop loss but a ripe one?

She clung to the truth alone. Since she was the only person in this club who played and ate, she seemed all the more sorrowful. The truth is that she wants her hideout to disappear, but she is terrified.

‘Should I use a chance to pay for the offense?’

I tried to give him debt and use it at a really important moment. Or, in many ways, I skip a lot in my favor. I don’t know which side the club membership belongs to, but I felt like I had to get the word out.

“Chief Jinrina, we still have a week left. This is not the time to cry Yo.”
“But…”

Jinlina has no cards at hand to use. We just wait for defeat to come empty-handed. But I wasn’t. I had one character card called Suji Gong.

“You must be studying, so I’ll leave it to you. I’ll give you an answer during the break, Yo.”

I sent a Kkaetok to Suji Gong. After a while the reply came back. The answer was that it was time to talk. I headed to the classroom to meet Suji Gong.

“You must bring it. Because I prepared butter crackers… !”

Jinri I greeted me with eager eyes like a woman waiting for news of her victory.

* * *

Gong Suji woke up to the vibration from the bag. It happened while I was studying with concentration to the point of trance.

‘Who is it?’

Suzy Gong carries two smartphones. One is an external smartphone to operate as her cadet status, and one is a hotline smartphone connected to important cadres as the daughter of a religious fanatic.

The former was silent, but the latter was set to vibrate. Even in the case of a person who is likely to be important to Kwangsinkyo, the hotline smartphone number is provided.

‘Johnson?’

Black Johnson was such a case. A person who wants to be recruited as a religious fanaticism, and a man who is talented and wants to keep by his side.

Suzy Gong confirmed her chat. She said there was something she wanted to say, and it was a message calling her. Johnson himself? I don’t know why, but I took it as an opportunity anyway.

I want to relieve the debt in my heart that was created because of Yoo Ji-hyeok. He was willing to give Johnson anything he wanted. Except for the impossible.

Johnson returns to the classroom shortly after replying. He seemed unwilling to study for the midterm exam. While the other cadets studied theory, he was enjoying the club alone.

‘He must be confident in his skills.’

Knowing Johnson’s strength, Suji Gong easily guessed his will. Rather, it felt great. Despite his lack of theory, he led the team with great ideas.

“Johnson, what are you calling about? Do you need my help?”
“Yes, I need Susie’s help.”

Johnson spoke directly. He wasn’t about to drag on for a long time anyway. He didn’t want to interfere with Gong Susie’s time.

“There is a club I joined.”

Suji Gong has already completed the investigation. He knew that Johnson had joined the ‘Extreme’, ‘Flame Flame’, and ‘Truth Quest’ clubs.

I quickly inferred the contents of the club, the problems that might arise at this point, and Johnson’s main point. In the course of the investigation, I wondered why the ‘Truth Search’ club was not disappearing.

“Yes, the ‘Truth Search’ club?”
“… Yeah, the ‘Truth Search’ club is in danger of being closed. Since there are not enough people, can Suzy join me if possible?”

Suzy pondered for a moment. Can he join one more club and be active? Is it a worthwhile exchange?

‘I can’t erase the debt with this kind of request…’

I assumed that I would join the ‘Truth Search’ club at Johnson’s request. Still, her heart was not lightened. It meant that accepting it was meaningless.

However, on the contrary, the idea was changed. A paving stone to draw Johnson into fanaticism. How about creating a give-and-take relationship to solidify an unexpected opportunity?

I was able to join a club. Thinking of exchanging it with Johnson’s favorability, it even felt rather cheap. Suzy nodded her head.

“I think it is possible.”
