Chapter 623 – Saying Goodbye Is Too Obvious. It’s Too Clichéd.

“Then, enlisted soldiers, please gather at the parade ground!”

A man in military uniform shouted in the middle of a road full of people. Wearing a red hat, he fashioned a horn with his hands, shouted once more, and then, glancing at us, walked to the field he had pointed to earlier.

“Hmm, hey.”

The Demon King, who was looking at the man who seemed to be an assistant, turned his gaze to me.

“I guess I should go there.”

“Oh, are you leaving already?”

“I’m very sorry, Jiheon. Don’t go.”

“A while ago, I was driving to go.”

Mentioning the time when I was insane, I beat Mina weakly as a joke. Then I looked at the playground the man was heading to earlier.

People were already gathering on the sandy playground. People such as family, friends, and lovers followed one person as the center. I was confused because I thought I would be one of them.

“Can’t we go right away?”

I was hoping for that, so I just asked. As if denying my words, as soon as I finished speaking, another soldier over there shouted.

“Those who are planning to enlist, please gather at the parade ground immediately! In a little while, the enlistment ceremony begins! Those who are planning to enlist, please immediately gather at the parade ground!”

“Ha, really.”

I laughed out loud at the blatant denial of my words. I looked up at the sky to soothe my heart that I had to go but didn’t want to go.

I wanted to make a fuss because I didn’t want to go. Of course, I couldn’t really go wild just because I wanted to. All I could do here was to sigh.

“You.”

Knowing how I felt, the demon king held my hand. She said with a calm, uncharacteristic smile.

“Be careful not to pick up soap in the army.”

“Hey.”

“Haha, isn’t it too obvious to just say have a good trip? It’s too clichéd.”

“Nevertheless it is. Just say goodbye.”

Even after listening to the devil’s nonsense, the tension didn’t rise much. She must have been aiming for this too, but I was sorry that her heart didn’t follow.

“Um, then sleep.”

After thinking for a moment, the demon king raised an eyebrow at her. Her eyes sparkled as if she had thought of a new prank, and, as usual, she said something absurd.

“If you go well, I’ll give you an ass.”

“Hey?!”

Haha! Is that so surprising!”

“No, is that what you mean?!”

“Did you mean to say that you would rent it there?”

“Why are you talking like that!”

“That’s right, Sohee.”

At this time, Minah intervened and made the story more complicated.

“Jiheon’s ass is mine.”

“It’s mine! Mine!”

Of course, Mina wasn’t the only one who intervened.

“Your brother is a very selfish person. How are people?”

“Because it’s mine! I’ve had it since I was born!”

“Then consider donating. What a good thing that is.”

“It will only be good for you guys!”

“No, Jiheon. It will definitely be good for Jiheon too.”

“You wipe your saliva and speak!”

So we made a lot of noise in a crowded place. I didn’t care at all even when the eyes gathered here. If I don’t talk here, the next opportunity will be in six weeks.

“Ha ha, really.”

When hundreds of people gathered in the playground that the teaching assistant said was a parade ground, I let out a sigh like before. Of course, there was no such stuffy feeling as before.

“Are you feeling better, brother?”

Seeing me smile, Sehee looked at me. With a faint smile, she bit her lip and said.

“Brother. If you want to see us, take a look at the photo I gave you. We’ll put up with wanting to see oppa while watching that.”

“Yeah, I’ll see you every break. Watch it before bed.”

“Otherwise, it’s okay to play while looking at it when you want to.”

“Hey.”

“Are you okay. It could be.”

“That’s not good.”

“And we’re going to do it while watching what we did with oppa, so let’s play while imagining it.”

“He must be crazy.”

“I am not the only one doing this. Isn’t it?”

Se-hee looked at the demon king and Min-ah as if asking for their consent. The two then nodded their heads proudly without shame.

“Well, I do it once before going to bed.”

“So do i. Wouldn’t it be refreshing to go to sleep?”

“Ha ha, I’m going crazy now…”

It was me who had been sighing, but I felt lighter than before. I put my hands in my pockets, hoping that this feeling would last as long as possible. I took it out and checked the screen of my phone.

No, he said he was calling, but why isn’t he calling?

I muttered to myself, filled with regret for Taeyeon. Earlier, she had said that she would call her directly, but she was on the verge of enlistment, but there was no call.

However, as the saying goes, even a tiger will come if you speak to it, and Taeyeon’s name appeared on the screen as the phone vibrated. It’s not just a phone call, it’s a video call.

“Uh? What.”

I mumbled in a small voice and inadvertently pressed the call connection button. As soon as the finger that pressed the screen fell off, the word “Connecting” Appeared and the face of Taeyeon and an unexpected person appeared.

-Is this done?

– Mister Hey! Tight man!

The people who appeared on my smartphone screen were Taeyeon in a navy police outfit and Yena in a kindergarten outfit. On the screen, the mother and daughter greeted each other with their happy faces.

-Hey! Can you hear my voice!

– Uncle! I am Yena!

It was to the point of deafening because I couldn’t hear it well. It was a speakerphone, so when I heard a crackling voice, the women who had been paying attention since I connected the call flocked to it.

“Is it just Taeyeon and Yena?”

“Are you on the phone? Now?”

“Nice to meet you. Taeyeon, Yena.”

-Hey! Can you hear this! Did this happen or not?

– Sisters! Color Sisters!

“I can hear! I can hear! So please be quiet!”

I said it to not only the mother and daughter on the screen, but also to the women who gathered behind me. After calming them down, I asked Taeyeon who called.

“What? Weren’t you working?”

-Can’t you see this? Are you wearing a cop suit?

On the screen, Taeyeon showed what she was wearing. As we saw earlier, she was dressed in a navy blue police uniform.

-I stopped by Yena Kindergarten while I was just taking a short break.

“Is that okay?”

– I’m doing this because it works. It can be like this for a while.

“Haha, you’re a corrupt cop.”

“I caught one of my aunt’s weaknesses.”

“I’ll see you later.”

– Look at the view! And you, Sehee! See you later!

“Oh little! I don’t have time! Hey! Quiet!”

I was a little impatient in a situation where I might have to go to the parade ground. As if they understood my feelings, the three of them quietly watched me talking on the phone.

-Hey, are you still before you go in? Right?

“Huh. But can’t you be careful with your words? It’s like going into jail.”

-That or that, what’s the difference? Well, hey. I went to the army well. Be careful. Don’t be afraid because the gun makes a lot of noise when you shoot it.

“What you say is somehow persuasive. Thank you.”

-Then my greetings are over, now. It’s yena Should I say hello to you now?

Taeyeon, who had been speaking harshly until now, spoke in a kind voice. Then, in my screen, Yena’s face was reflected.

– Uncle!

“Okay. It’s yena Our Yena, are you pretty today too?”

-Hee hee, the man is handsome too!

“Yes, lying is not good.”

“Noisy. Okay? Thank you, yena I feel good when Yena compliments me.”

-Is it so?

“Huh! Then! Who praised you! Our Yena saw you and said you were handsome!”

“Jena is young, so she doesn’t have eyes for men.”

“It’s noisy, a little.”

“…”

“Minah, why do you look at me like that?”

“No, Jiheon.”

I glared at Mina as she spoke with her eyes, and continued talking to Yena again.

“Yena. Did you hear from mom? Uncle, I won’t see you for a while.”

-Yes! Mom, you’re trying to be a great person like my mom!

“Huh? Aunt isn’t that kind of person?”

– You suck, really.

“That’s right. You’re going here to become a good person like Jena’s mother. No, great people. Not nice people.”

“You looked like a person who just went crazy.”

“I know. So, it’s Yena.”

I glanced at the demon king, who pointed out the reason for her change of words, and talked to Yena on the screen again while making eye contact.

“Yena. Mister is well gone, she’s fine. Understand?”

-Yes!

“Oh, yes. Yena, she doesn’t like meeting with Mr. Do you think it feels good?”

– No! I miss you uncle!

“Yes, I want to see Jena too. But be patient with the fact that you miss Mr. Jena, I’ll see you next month. Yena can do that too!”

-Yes!

She looked at Jena, who answered brightly, with satisfaction, then looked around her. Almost all the curly hair she had seen around her had disappeared, and now only me was left.

She said her goodbyes to Jena, thinking that she had to hurry to the parade ground.

“Sorry, Yena. I need to stop hanging out I’m sorry, Jena. But do you know that you love Jena?”

“!”

“!”

“…”

-!

-Yes. I know. Hehe.

Except for Jena, none of my girlfriends raised a voice. It seemed that he misunderstood the words that came from the heart of caring for the child.

“Oh, I’ll go now. Sohee, take this.”

Seeing their eyes gradually grow colder, I handed the smartphone that was still being connected to the demon king. Even then, the women hadn’t said a word. I shouted as I hurried away from them.

“Then I must go! I’m sorry, but just watch me go in! So goodbye!”

I didn’t have the heart that I didn’t want to go to the army right now. Right now, all I could think of was the desire to survive. By the time I went into the crowd of people, I heard a familiar voice.

“You! Welcome back!”

“Be careful! Jiheon!”

It was such a great voice that not only me but everyone here looked at it. However, the demon king, Minah, and Sehee shouted without hesitation.

“If you love Jim! To evil! I’ll hold on to it!”

“I love you! Jiheon!”

“Brother! When it’s hard! Think of us and endure!”

All I could hear at this time were those three voices. But later, I heard that Taeyeon and Yena, who were still on the phone, also cheered.

“Then! The personnel here are the 1st Battalion, 2nd Company, 1st Platoon! When we are together, we stand in two columns!”

“… Uh?”

“Uh?”

“…”

“There reserve trainees! I will not leave my seat on my own!”

“No, that is-“

“Pre-trainee! It doesn’t move!”

“Ah, yes.”

“…”

“…”

“… Hey, have you ever met? We?”

“No. It’s a first look. We never met at a motel.”

“Uh? I didn’t say motel…”

Minah! If you don’t meet me!!!
