Chapter 90 – This Time It Will Be Different.

“Hello.”
– Ah oh? Are you Sungkyu?
“Yes, that’s right. I’m with Eunha. Sleeping now If it is important, I will deliver it.”

This was not the right word.
It’s not a good thing to answer someone else’s phone instead because you’re sleeping in the first place.
Park Eun-ha belonged to an underground guild.
When she talks to people from the same guild, it will often be related to work.
Of course, Park Jeong-kyun and Park Eun-ha were very close, but it wasn’t enough to call them from early Saturday morning about personal matters.

Asking about business on behalf of me was crossing the line, but this was just thinking from the point of view of a 40-year-old, and if you were 20 and didn’t know the place called an underground guild, it was something you could easily overlook.

In fact, instead of hanging up the phone right away or telling Park Eun-ha to wake up, Park Jeong-gyun was a bit silent.
He told me

– Have you seen the news?
“What news are you talking about?”
– The news that Park Cheol-gwan died.
“Park Cheol-gwan is dying?”

I was surprised.
What happened in one night to make him die?

– Since you have nothing to do with this, I will let you know. Those who contacted us took action. Even if you say that much, Eunha will understand. Anyway, since the matter is over, tell him that you can take a good rest as instructed.

Park Jeong-gyun let out a sinister laugh after a serious talk.

– I like being young too, don’t I? Since we are both young and hunters, we spend at least two days in bed on the weekends…

Pop,
I hung up.
I am not the only one who crosses the line, but Park Jung-kyun crosses the line freely.
Of course, this is more of a joke.

I sat down on a chair.

‘Park Cheol-gwan…’

I was thinking about how to solve his problem.
In any case, this quest could only be completed when two issues were resolved.

To win Choi Ju-ri’s heart.
In order to do that, she has to deal with Park Cheol-gwan, who is a stumbling block in her life and the basis of her unhappiness.

The Park Cheol-gwan issue was also connected to Park Da-in.
Needless to say, there was Park Cheol-gwan behind Park Da-in’s cheeky behavior.
When he disappears, she becomes an ordinary college student.
Gaon will also be kicked out.
If there is no one who makes a donation on behalf of Park Cheol-gwan.
Choi Ju-ri may exist, but I didn’t want a picture like that.
It is enough that Park Cheol-gwan suffered.
She didn’t have to have any sense of her duty to her daughter.

I did a search on my phone first.
The article was plastered without looking for a long time.

At first glance, dozens of articles poured in overnight.

I read it as I sat.

The reason why Park Cheol-gwan died was said to be suicide.
That he died by hanging himself at his home.

The article cited the crimes he committed as the reason.
That he chose death because he could not handle the crime that had begun to be revealed through the media.

The biggest crime that was leaked through the media was the teacher murder.
In order to marry Choi Ju-ri, he killed her ex-wife and even killed Choi Ju-ri’s father.
It was the content that specific physical evidence had come out and an investigation had begun.

However, I thought that Park Cheol-gwan was never the type to take his own life.
Park Jeong-gyun also said the same thing.
He said he was in action on the other side.
Of course, I didn’t know who the opponent was.
It doesn’t matter too much right now.
Anyway, Choe Ju-ri got away from her Park Cheol-gwan and it was only important to separate her from her villain.

‘The quest has not yet been completed…’

Of course, it must be because Choi Ju-ri’s favorability rating was not 100%.
I had to meet her, even if it was to comfort her when she was shocked.

I looked at the two people still asleep on the bed.
I wanted to spend a comfortable and good time with them today, but I couldn’t.

But it wasn’t sad.
There would be many opportunities to do so in the future, and the important thing right now was to carry out the quest to face.
The quest was the reason why I was able to get closer to Shin Hye-yeon and Park Eun-ha.
As long as I continue to carry out the quest, the possibility that my life will go wrong is zero.
Either in terms of growth or in terms of relationships.

It was still early, so it was not appropriate to contact her Choi Ju-ri or visit her.
Instead, I decided to read The Book of Truth.

Because I was curious about Park Da-in’s whereabouts.
At this point, she couldn’t help but know what had become of her father.
Whether she would act in the future was highly likely to be a variable.

I went to the bathroom
I locked the door and took out the thick book that only I had.

“Show me what Park Da-in is doing.”

Flutter,

The bookshelf is over.

“…”

I read the contents of the book.
The content did not show only what Park Da-in was doing now.
What she did after breaking up with me.
She showed the person she met.

“Haaa…”

I wiped my face.

At the beginning of this quest, I had a question.
Why is there only one target for this quest, Park Da-in?

In the previous quest, Lee Seul-gi and Park Jong-gil appeared at the same time.
All of them were involved in NTR, so it was only natural.

That’s how I met Shin Hye-yeon and Park Eun-ha.

However, the target of this quest was only Park Da-in, who was missing the male side.

If you think about the reason, it was simple.
Because my life is different from my previous life.

It’s the same with what you’ve been through and the progress of time.
In my previous life, I met Park Da-in at a much later point.
And in the second half of that relationship, Lee Chul-gi appeared in an unwelcome form.

‘This is how they connect…’

If the quest had just been completed, Lee Chul-gi wouldn’t have appeared in my life at least through her.

However, Lee Cheol-gi appeared in a completely different form from her previous life.

In a previous life, he dated Park Da-in and did NTR in front of me, another of Park Da-in’s boyfriends.
They didn’t care about me at all.
Like an ant passing on the street.
I could read in Lee Chul-gi’s eyes that he regarded it as a meaningless existence.

To Park Da-in, it was just a play.
He just used me as a tool for his bad taste and pleasure.

He had no intention of dating me seriously in the first place.
To her, a serious partner meant a man like Lee Chul-ki.

After NTR, I wandered a lot.
But not as much as during the dew season.
I felt desperately that I needed to be treated more than anything else.

I have to drive the drugs out of my body and fix my broken mind that considered sex only as a tool for pleasure.

The method I chose was the most familiar to me.
To train recklessly.
Aside from attending lectures at school, I spent my time sweating at the training grounds and training grounds.

I was able to wash away the symptoms of poisoning with sweat.
The fortunate thing is that Park Da-in released me from that level.
It is true that meeting Lee Chul-ki helped to some extent.
If Da-in Park had kept her obsession with me without putting her heart elsewhere, it was clear that her wandering mind would have broken me even more.
To an irreversible level.
And I wouldn’t even care.

‘It didn’t go well.’

As soon as I got out of her drug addiction, I tried to draw a line and forget about Park Da-in thoroughly.
It had to be.
Because it was much better for me in my life than her heart was suffering.

Park Da-in was the daughter of a member of the National Assembly, and Cheol-ki Lee was also the son of a member of the National Assembly.
A few years later, Park Cheol-gwan ran for president.
However, he seemed to have an advantage in the beginning, but he fell from the horse as various corruption broke out.

Five years later, it was Lee Nam-cheol who ran as the presidential candidate of the same party.
He was troubled by a scandal involving his son, but eventually became president.
As my son goes to prison.
It reminded me of an interview he had given to the media saying he had a heart that cut the intestines.

I was able to draw all the pictures.

Although Park Cheol-gwan and Lee Nam-cheol belonged to the same party and seemed like comrades in that sense, they were forming a rivalry in the end.
Lee Chul-ki and Park Da-in’s closeness must have been a kind of reconciliation gesture from Lee Nam-cheol’s side.

In fact, it was Park Cheol-gwan who ran first as a presidential candidate.
However, he failed to win the election by a wide margin as corruption broke out.
Couldn’t it be Lee Nam-chul who controlled it from behind?
If Park Cheol-gwan falls down like that, he will stand out more as a person of the same generation who has taken similar steps.

Indeed, five years later he became president.

‘Sacrificing Lee Chul-gi…’

Lee Cheol-gi was also just a tool used by his father.
He was behaving the same way in this lifetime.
If it was Lee Nam-cheol who destroyed Park Cheol-gwan…
Lee Cheol-gi’s approach to destroy Park Da-in must have been part of that.

I wouldn’t have been able to do anything anyway.
At the time Park Cheol-gwan died, Park Da-in would have been just a wooden doll with a thread missing.

The cruel temper was the same as the rich man.

What I was really concerned about was how Lee Chul-gi’s appearance would affect my life.

‘Of course I want it, but…’

In my previous life, I lost.
It’s too powerless.

But this time it will be different.
