《Codename-Anastasia》 Chapter 1 - 1.1 Prologue: Mission in Busan Chapter 1: 1.1 Prologue: Mission in Busan7:49 pm Busan International Port. Night gradually falls on the pier. Export preparation work also took place enthusiastically. The 5,000-ton auxiliary ferry clearly shows its majesty under the flickering light of street lights. This is a scheduled train that operates once a day and will arrive at the port of Shimonoseki, Japan tomorrow morning. The doors close after boarding time ends. The crane finished loading the goods and finally quietly withdrew. As expected, the lights in the station went out. The surrounding area was quiet, buried in the stillness of the night, only the ferry tied to its rope was still floating on the black, rippling sea. But the atmosphere inside is completely different. A man entered the room arranged early and put down his luggage. Passengers around him were busy looking everywhere on the train with excited faces. Everyone gathered in small groups at a drinking table in the village hallway, some people also recorded every moment with cameras in hand. Boisterous laughter echoed everywhere, even on the cold, windy deck of the ship was filled with a typical atmosphere of excitement and anticipation for the journey about to begin. Kwon Taek Joo is present in that crowded place. He wore a normal suit with a jacket, looking no different from the people present except for his extremely depressed expression. That was clearly not the look on the face of someone staying in the most expensive room. He occasionally lifted his sleeve to check the time. Kwon Taek Joo followed every movement of the second hand on the watch. Exactly 8 o''clock. The whistle signaling the departure of the ferry split the night sea. Kwon Taek Joo followed suit and walked out onto the balcony. The deck below appeared clearly in his vision. Tourists are still busy taking photos. It would be difficult to get a decent photo in this darkness but they kept pressing the shutter button. He was indifferently observing those constant movements when a small mechanical sound suddenly came from his left ear. Next, someone''s voice rang out. -How are you? Are you enjoying the romantic atmosphere of the night sea? "Not bad. Noisy but also quite boring." Light laughter came from the communication device in my ear. Meanwhile, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were still directed towards the deck. He carefully looked at each person passing by, but no one particularly stood out. "Report it." - Contact person Kim Young Hee and National Security Agency official Lee Cheol Jin were both confirmed to have boarded the plane. Lee Cheol Jin is disguising himself as a Chinese citizen. He will probably leave China as soon as he arrives in Japan, and Kim Young Hee has booked a ferry leaving from Shimonoseki tomorrow night. "Then I''ll have to reach them before the ship docks." Kwon Taek Joo muttered to himself and quickly left the balcony. "Are you going to start acting now?", he asked. Kwon Taek Joo just walked out of the room and answered while walking through the empty hallway. "When playing hide and seek, good players are those who like to take risks." If the targets are to contact each other, a chaotic scene like 2 this is the best time, because meeting in a place with few people will only attract more attention. Kwon Taek Joo jumped down two spiral stairs. He passed by a group of people gathered in front of the 2nd floor restaurant and examined each face one by one. This time there are no outstanding characters either. Kwon Taek Joo went straight down the stairs leading to the first floor lobby and gave brief instructions. "Call me." The phone rang immediately. Kwon Taek Joo let the sound vibrate continuously twice and took the call when he reached the middle of the stairs. "Hello", he spoke up to continue the serious conversation with the silent person on the other end. No one seemed suspicious when Kwon Taek Joo was talking on the phone and walking around. Not long after, a woman passed by. The collar of her coat stood up looking very awkward. Kwon Taek Joo''s black eyes quietly watched that woman. She passed the information desk and approached the vending machine next to the elevator. She stood there for a long moment as if choosing a drink. Other people came and then left one by one. The woman took out the 1,000 yen bill again after the surroundings became quiet again. After a long period of hesitation, what she chose was green tea. Change poured out of the machine, and the drink also fell down with a slight sound. She picked up the green tea quite naturally, then gathered the change and returned to the 2nd floor. Kwon Taek Joo pretended not to pay attention to the woman, and she did not pay any special attention to him. - The target is approaching. The voice ringing on the intercom caught Kwon Taek Joo''s attention after the woman disappeared upstairs. "Okay. Let''s talk later." He pressed the button to end the call after greeting. At that moment, a man walked out of the living room at the back of the lobby. He was wearing a navy blue beanie and was striding towards the vending machine. The man rummaged through his pocket and took out a few coins but only glanced around, not at the drink. An overly cautious attitude. After a while, the man put a 100 yen coin into the slot. At that moment, an arm suddenly reached over his shoulder. Then a cheerful clicking sound was heard. That familiar sound was like the sound of a coin rolling through a narrow groove. The blue beanie was still holding a hundred yen coin in his hand. That arm suddenly entered the vending machine, chose a drink and pressed a button. "What''s up?" At this point, the navy blue beanie realized the current situation. The heavy can of water fell with a clatter. The beanie quickly grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s hand as he walked towards the place to receive the can of water. He shouted in confusion at the unexpected situation. "Ah you bastard, what are you doing?" "It seems like you''re hesitant to make a decision. If I keep waiting, I''ll probably have to stay up all night." Kwon Taek Joo held his hand tightly and brazenly responded. The tone was whispery but provocative. There was no sign of remorse in the faint smile on his face, as if the conflict that was happening was what he wanted. An unfortunate premonition and a creepy feeling. Instinct was one step ahead of the mind in recognizing the danger, the blue beanie''s eyebrows furrowed. Under the light, the anger was pushed away and replaced by an expression of anxiety. His breathing also became rougher, and at some point, cold sweat also formed on his forehead. "Damned." Immediately, the blue beanie suddenly swung his hand towards the vending machine. He quickly lifted the lid of the vending machine and picked up something inside. Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate to step on the lid. "Ah!" A loud scream came from the man whose hand was caught in the vending machine. Kwon Taek Joo was calm as if nothing had happened. "Ah this crazy guy!" The man grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s collar in response to the recent provocation. His eyes widened as he stared at him. But Kwon Taek Joo didn''t flinch, he just looked from his shirt to the man''s face. His eyebrows furrowed even more because of this strangely leisurely attitude. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the wrist of the man holding his collar. His leisurely movements seem to be engraving each of his actions into the other person''s mind. The skin under the man''s eyes twitched. The eyes that had been glancing at Kwon Taek Joo now looked down at his wrist. Even when the man tried to ignore it, an unbearably cruel force began to spread, what was happening was definitely not good. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the people gathered around and muttered. S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "It''s true. Getting too much attention is very troublesome. Lee Cheol Jin-sshi also understands, right? Everyone in the industry is like that." As soon as his name was called, he was able to guess Kwon Taek Joo''s identity. The man''s already angry face suddenly turned pale. Passengers continued to rush out and quickly surrounded the two people. The most curious thing is always watching a fight, and the strange expectations of people running to watch a noisy action movie arise. There''s no benefit to continuing like this. A cornered mouse will bite the cat back. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know what unexpected actions Lee Cheol Jin would take if he put more pressure on him. If civilian casualties occur, a letter or two of apology will hardly calm the situation. Kwon Taek Joo held Lee Cheol Jin''s arm tightly. Suddenly he burst out laughing. "Okay. Great!" He no longer tried to hide his identity. If their identities are revealed, the spies have only two options. Committing suicide by drinking pre-prepared poison or using force to escape. He won''t throw away something that was hard-won, so the choice this time will be the latter. Lee Cheol Jin quickly put his hand inside his jacket, but that arm was immediately lifted up by Kwon Taek Joo in a split second, followed by his head hitting the vending machine. The vending machine vibrated with a thud. Lee Cheol Jin also couldn''t get over the shock and staggered. At that moment, Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his arm and easily snatched the gun. When a gun appeared from nowhere, the gathered onlookers screamed and retreated. Without hesitation, Kwon Taek Joo used all his strength to kick Lee Cheol Jin''s butt. His body hit the floor. His face and head were shaken so he could not stay awake. Meanwhile, Kwon Taek Joo lifted the lid of the vending machine and took out the USB. The woman from earlier left it behind. According to intelligence information, it may contain high-level information equivalent to state secrets. "Sorry, please give way! Just for a moment, please." At that moment a flight attendant approached, apparently he had received a report about the commotion. Kwon Taek Joo looked in that direction, at the same time he heard an angry mutter ringing in his ear. "There''s no law for you to rummage through other people''s things." Kwon Taek Joo turned his head with an unfortunate premonition. His eyes immediately met Lee Cheol Jin. His eyes flashed strangely. Could it be? He did not miss the rope that had just been dropped in front of him. "What''s going on?", the flight attendant rushed in to ask. "Hic.." It happened in just a split second. Lee Cheol Jin wrapped his arms around the flight attendant''s neck and pulled him back. In his other hand was a sharp knife. "Ahhh!" "Ah!" Seeing the sharp blade, the surrounding passengers fled, only Kwon Taek Joo remained in his position. He bit his lower lip out of habit. Whenever things go smoothly, he feels uncomfortable. There is no such thing as an easy thing to do. This time is no exception. Lee Cheol Jin wrapped his arms around the hostage''s neck and clutched his weapon. The flight attendant shouted. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head in annoyance. "Give me that." Lee Cheol Jin reached out his hand to request. The sharp blade stuck tighter to the hostage''s neck. Kwon Taek Joo just stood there observing without reacting at all. Lee Cheol Jin impatiently waved his hand. He even shouted "Throw it over here!" Kwon Taek Joo looked boredly at the hostage''s pale face at his every move. His breathing was rapid, almost like a sob. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the USB in his hand and threw it away without hesitation. The small USB hit the hostage and then fell to the floor. Lee Cheol Jin reflexively intended to bend down but quickly changed his mind and asked the hostage to pick up the item that had just fallen. The flight attendant picked up the USB with shaking hands. In the desperate crisis, his pants were helplessly soaked. Lee Cheol Jin forced him to stand up and step back step by step on weak legs that no longer had any strength due to fear. At this time, Kwon Taek Joo also slowly moved. The distance tightened as soon as Lee Cheol Jin retreated. The series of actions were without hesitation as if he did not care about the safety of the hostages. When Lee Cheol Jin took a step back, Kwon Taek Joo took a step closer. Lee Cheol Jin''s voice cracked with anger. "Don''t follow me!" But that threat had no effect at all. If he takes a step back, Kwon Taek Joo will definitely take another step. Although a certain distance was still maintained between the two sides, the anxiety of the person being chased was still indescribable. "Please help me." The hostage rubbed his hands together in supplication. The urine that had soaked his pants was now dripping to the floor. For a moment, all movement and noise stopped as if time itself had stopped. Lee Cheol Jin took a step back as if to check the situation. Kwon Taek Joo followed again. He went crazy and jumped up, his eyes seemed to have no mercy for the hostages. "You bastard, didn''t you listen to me when I told you to stop?" Even being angry is of no use because it''s hard to find room for compromise on Kwon Taek Joo''s face. Even if the hostage''s life is in danger, he will not back down. But one thing is clear: the moment the hostage stops breathing, Lee Cheol Jin himself will no longer be safe. All of that is contained in Kwon Taek Joo''s quiet but pressured gaze. "This bastard...!" Lee Cheol Jin quickly gave up the confrontation and pushed the hostages away. He then walked up the stairs in the back. Kwon Taek Joo helped the flight attendant who fell aside and chased after him. As soon as he reached the second floor, people started flocking to the entrance to the deck. Kwon Taek Joo turned around and walked straight in that direction. The sight of Lee Cheol Jin quickly running away entered his sight. But Kwon Taek Joo didn''t run even though his strides were wider and he sped up somewhat, because there was absolutely no reason to lose patience. Either way, this ship is heading out to sea. Lee Cheol Jin is no different from a mouse that has crawled into a trap. Kwon Taek Joo leisurely followed Lee Cheol Jin who was running away. His black hair fluttered in the sea breeze. That scene brought a strange sense of menace. -Senior, the ferry assistant just reported to the Coast Guard that there was an armed person on the ship. What''s going on? Suddenly the voice from before rang out from the communication device in Kwon Taek Joo''s ear. "Let''s talk later. I''ll probably be a bit busy." Kwon Taek Joo finally looked straight at Lee Cheol Jin, who had approached the railing. A warning sound came from the walkie-talkie, but he turned it off without hesitation. As a result, only Lee Cheol Jin and Kwon Taek Joo remained on the windy deck. Lee Cheol Jin looked down at the dark sea. His hands that were clinging to the railing tightened. Meanwhile, Kwon Taek Joo gradually narrowed the gap. Lee Cheol Jin was cornered and suddenly swung his weapon wildly into the air. That gesture was like trying to escape at all costs, but it was also meaningless. The moment you are afraid, your threat has lost its power. "Don''t come here!" He quickly approached the aggressive Lee Cheol Jin. He alternately looked down at the dark sea and towards Kwon Taek Joo and continuously waved the knife in the air. "I told you not to come here!" He panicked and screamed violently. Kwon Taek Joo took out the Colt. That was the moment Lee Cheol Jin''s knife turned into a piece of scrap metal. Chapter 2 - 1.2 Prologue: Mission in Busan 2 Chapter 2: 1.2 Prologue: Mission in Busan 2Lee Cheol Jin''s eyes nervously looked at Kwon Taek Joo, then his eyes followed somewhere behind him. Next round, sparks burst from Kwon Taek Joo''s gun muzzle along with an explosion. The bullet passed through the target accurately, but the one who collapsed and screamed was not Lee Cheol Jin but Kim Young Hee, who quietly approached Kwon Taek Joo from behind. S§×arch* The ¦Çov§×lFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kim Young Hee''s ivory jacket was stained with red blood. She sat down clutching her torn right hand while the Colt in her hand fell and shot bullets into the air. It is unclear whether the target the gun was aimed at was Kwon Taek Joo or Lee Cheol Jin. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head forward again. Meanwhile, Lee Cheol Jin also threw his knife away and stood with his back turned. He grabbed the railing and took a deep breath, his shoulders rising, his back bulging. Just as an unpleasant feeling flashed through Kwon Taek Joo''s head, Lee Cheol Jin''s body, which was clinging to the railing, suddenly jumped out. Kwon Taek Joo immediately ran to the railing. But before he could get there, a "thud" rang in his ears. Kwon Taek Joo looked down, one side of the black sea broke into white water jets. He looked everywhere looking for Lee Cheol Jin but couldn''t see him anywhere. Kwon Taek Joo waited a little longer. Then Lee Cheol Jin''s head began to rise above the white wave. Jumping from this height into the sea is tantamount to suicide. But as if to mock Kwon Taek Joo''s idea, a boat suddenly appeared from somewhere. What was approaching with its lights was an old wooden fishing boat. Perhaps thanks to that, it was able to avoid the surveillance networks of investigative agencies and come all the way here. The wooden boat glided in the darkness gradually approaching Lee Cheol Jin. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was hit in the back of the head. Perhaps this is his real way out. The plan may have been to distract the pursuers'' attention with a return train ticket and evaporate at sea as soon as the item was received. Kwon Taek Joo opened fire immediately, but it was not easy to snipe a boat from far away in the dim visibility of the dead of night. Even though the goal is clearly in sight, putting them in a bad situation can complicate matters. If he had been allowed to shoot to death from the beginning, he wouldn''t have worked so hard. The purpose of this operation is to search for North Korean spies who have been residing in South Korea for a long time, who have occupied important social positions and stolen national secrets. Surely there must be more than one person colluding and supporting them. Kwon Taek Joo cannot cut off the tree trunk before digging up the roots. Meanwhile, the ferry continued to move and the distance from the fishing boat gradually increased. A man from the cockpit of the fishing boat pulled Lee Cheol Jin onto the boat. He took off his soaked jacket. Of course it is. Various small buoys were wrapped around his body. As the boat left, Lee Cheol Jin raised his hand as if mocking him. Proud and victorious face. Kwon Taek Joo smiled lightly, then that smile soon disappeared from his face. He turned around and approached the collapsed Kim Young Hee. Kim Young Hee trembled in pain from her injured arm but was still trying to pull something out. It''s poison. Kwon Taek Joo hit her hard on the back of the head to stop her suicide. Kim Young Hee lost consciousness. Kwon Taek Joo continued to stuff a handkerchief into her mouth to prevent her from harming herself after she regained consciousness. He then grabbed Kim Young Hee''s left hand and twisted it behind her back. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally looked down, a ring was on the ring finger of Kim Young Hee''s hand. The exterior has almost no scratches, showing that it was only recently purchased. "The ring is so beautiful, isn''t it? So we should have a bracelet to match." Kwon Taek Joo sarcastically took out the handcuffs. The deafening sound of the handcuffs fixed Kim Young Hee''s left hand to the railing. After finishing somewhere, Kwon Taek Joo turned on the intercom again. "Okay, in 8 seconds, run here immediately." "Yes?" the person on the other side shouted as if he had heard wrong. Kwon Taek Joo ignored it and turned his attention to the watch on his hand. When he pressed the reset button next to the watch, the time indicator disappeared and road markings appeared. While chasing Lee Cheol Jin, Kwon Taek Joo attached a tracking device to his belt. The red dot represents the position of the target gradually moving away from the orientation line. He couldn''t delay any longer. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and quickly ran towards the back of the ferry. He stood at the end of the deck, then stepped onto the railing and jumped off without hesitation. His vision went black for a moment. The wind blew from all directions as if it was passing through Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body. Fall seems to have lasted longer than expected. Damn. The water surface rose suddenly, accompanied by a loud noise. A fierce shock also hit Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body when he touched the black sea water. It felt like every muscle in my body was being ripped apart. Seawater immediately filled every pore with bursting water bubbles. He submerged in the water for a while to reduce the shock and then slowly moved his arms and legs to hold his body as the current carried him away. Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes and looked around, but the water was pitch black without a single ray of light shining through. He kicked his legs with all his strength and rose to the surface. It''s hard to stay in position when high waves keep coming. Kwon Taek Joo raised his wrist with difficulty and pressed the reset button of the watch again. Then the navigation chart disappeared and the entire license plate lit up. That light shot into the air. 2, 3 seconds passed like that. Then a familiar mechanical sound rang out not far away. That is the sound of a motorboat engine. The noise grew louder and louder and then quickly fell silent. Immediately after, white waves crashed into the propeller and whipped Kwon Taek Joo''s skin along with a nagging voice pouring down above his head. "Really. If you keep this up, you''ll become a water ghost." Yoon Jong Woo, who ran with all his might to get here in 8 seconds, is reaching out his hand. Kwon Taek Joo held his hand and climbed onto the boat. His whole body was wet and uncomfortable. Despite the intense cold, Kwon Taek Joo still took off his watch and threw it at Yoon Jong Woo. Without asking, Yoon Jong Woo steered the boat following the red dot on the clock''s direction board. Meanwhile, Kwon Taek Joo took off his wet jacket and gasped. The motorboat ran quickly through the dark waves. The entire boat bounced violently in the rolling waves. The red dot is almost outside the orientation line and is gradually approaching. Pip, pip, pip, pip, pip,pipipipi. When the wooden boat came into view, that characteristic mechanical sound became even clearer. Even the wooden boat that was leisurely running away must have noticed the presence chasing them. Soon, a man stepped out of the cockpit and grabbed a rifle. Yoon Jong Woo gritted his teeth and steered. The ship turned suddenly and a strong current appeared. Most of the incoming bullets missed, but one of them hit a corner of the boat. Fortunately, it did not hit the engine or fuel tank, so the fireworks display at midnight did not happen. There was still no light around the fishing boat. In this state, it is impossible to control the target without killing the opponent. Even when he got a little closer, the bullets from the fishing boat had already shot out with no room left. Capturing armed targets is truly an absurd order. A series of situations repeat over and over. being attacked and then dodged, then continuing to approach the target and then being shot at again. Yoon Jong Woo angrily slammed his hand on the steering wheel. The target was right in front of him but not being able to touch it with even a fingertip drove him crazy. "Let''s get out of the way." Yoon Jong Woo was pulled back. Kwon Taek Joo sat in the driver''s seat and rushed to the fishing boat. Yoon Jong Woo was helpless as the boat bounced. "Ah! Senior, we''re going to collide! We''re going to collide!" Yoon Jong Woo stood up and screamed in horror, but Kwon Taek Joo only increased his speed. Bullets were fired from the wooden boat. Kwon Taek Joo tilted the boat, causing a large stream of water to splash onto the deck of the wooden boat. Only then will the opponent''s attack soften a bit. Just like that, he walked ahead of the fishing boat for a long time. Then Kwon Taek Joo suddenly turned the steering wheel and made a wide right turn. The engine could not bear to make noise. The boat rotated strongly as if it wanted to be flipped upside down. Yoon Jong Woo''s pale face could not avoid falling again when the train changed direction and began to reverse. Kwon Taek Joo returned to the path he just passed and increased the boat''s speed to the maximum. When the motorboat that had disappeared into the darkness reappeared, the wooden boat looked restless. Anxiety was evident through the merciless bullets. Because of the relentless pursuit, Kwon Taek Joo did not have time to shoot back. Yoon Jong Woo panicked and focused on protecting his body by holding his head with both hands. "You''re really going to die like this! You''re going to die! You''re going to die! Are you listening, you crazy guy!" Yoon Jong Woo was scared and cursed his superior Kwon Taek Joo without hesitation. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t care at all and kept rushing away. If the situation continues like this, his boat will collide head-on with the wooden boat. Yoon Jong Woo''s eyes closed tightly. The image of his parents back home suddenly flashed through his mind, making his eyes suddenly wet. Two months ago, he didn''t even have enough money to pay for the kimchi his mother sent him. The text message he received from his mother telling him he was a "bastard" before he took action this time still lingered in his mind. Ah, mom. The wooden boat also had a premonition that something bad was about to happen. They watched in confusion as the motorboat rushed straight at them and then jumped into the water almost at the same time. With less than 5 meters left. the two boats will collide. The abandonment and despair became equally heavy in that brief moment. At that moment. Kwon Taek Joo turned the steering wheel hard again. The boat could not handle the speed at which it was traveling, so it shook violently due to sudden braking. The boat''s hull jumped out of the water and slid in a long arc. Even so, eventual conflict is inevitable. That''s it in theory This is the time to give up to save your life, but Kwon Taek Joo continues to hold the steering wheel tightly. Soon, the right side of the wooden boat touched the stern of the motor boat with a thud. The collision caused both boat hulls to shake violently. A spark clearly burst out from the friction area. For a moment, the entire boat seemed to float in the air. "Huh?" After the chaos subsided, Yoon Jong Woo slowly opened his eyes. The surroundings were quiet again. He was on a boat, not on the cold sea, and Kwon Taek Joo was still sitting in the driver''s seat. Smoke billowed from the back of the boat, there was a large hole on the right side of the wooden boat, but that was all. The tension that had tightened his entire body was suddenly released, but his heart was beating so hard that he couldn''t control his body. The sound of the engine finally stopped. The waves crashed in the direction of the boat, bringing it closer to the wooden boat. The two boat hulls suddenly approached and collided continuously, creating a deafening sound. Kwon Taek Joo stood up from his seat and walked towards the wooden boat. Only then did Yoon Jong Woo come to his senses. He groped around on the floor and picked up his Colt. So it''s not dead yet. Kwon Taek Joo boarded the fishing boat and illuminated the surroundings with a flashlight. He saw two figures swimming endlessly in the deep sea with nowhere to escape. While quietly observing those desperate movements, he picked up the fishing net lying next to him. Kwon Taek Joo held it tightly so it wouldn''t get entangled and threw it towards the fleeing men. The fishing net spread out in the air and flew away. Two men who were swimming diligently suddenly became entangled in a net that had just flown in. The more they struggled to escape, the tighter the net became. Kwon Taek Joo observed that fierce battle for a while then turned the machine connected to the fishing net. A rusty rattling sound came from the hand tractor commonly used on small fishing boats. It''s not as difficult to use as it looks. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo looked back. Yoon Jong Woo, who had been quietly watching in the name of cover, was approaching. Perhaps because he was embarrassed, the boy used the net machine more passionately than Kwon Taek Joo. Immediately afterward, Lee Cheol Jin and his accomplices along with the fishing net were pulled onto the boat deck. "Ha...ha...what should I do now?" Yoon Jong Woo asked while wiping his sweat. No response from Kwon Taek Joo. When he looked up curiously, Kwon Taek Joo had already moved towards the motorboat and was busy looking for something. "What are you doing?" "Where is what I told you to prepare?" "Ah, it''s under the driver''s seat." Kwon Taek Joo immediately leaned back in the driver''s seat. Just like Yoon Jong Woo said, there was a suitcase underneath. Kwon Taek Joo opened the zipper and checked inside then immediately gave instructions to Yoon Jong Woo. "Contact headquarters and inform them that we have captured Lee Cheol Jin, his accomplice, and the USB. Contact Kim Young Hee is tied up on the ferry so the Coast Guard should have been searching by now." I saw her. Call them and tell them to take over." "Yes? Senior? Why does it sound like I have to do it all myself..." "But what else?" "What about senior?" "I''m busy as hell. I have a family event to attend. Work hard." Is it true that at the crossroads between life and death, do people often not carefully consider the words they say while losing their reason? Yoon Jong Woo kept asking, "Yes?" just denied reality. As if to turn that unfortunate premonition into certainty, the motorboat started. Yoon Jong Woo was left behind on a wooden boat with two men caught in the net. Kwon Taek Joo left without looking back. Powerful boat motor glides quickly. Everything happened so fast that Yoon Jong Woo didn''t even have time to think. When he looked back bewilderedly, his shoes were already soaked, because seawater was seeping into the boat''s hull. Even if this hole-in-the-wall boat doesn''t sink immediately, can a superior abandon a subordinate without feeling guilty or hesitant? Yoon Jong Woo screamed like he was dying from behind, but Kwon Taek Joo could only assume that he had mistakenly heard the wind or the waves. The sound of the wind today sounded like screaming "Unbelievable!". It is said that the more precious a child is, the more strictly he or she must be raised. So the sound he heard was definitely just a mistake. Chapter 3 - 1.3 Prologue: Psych Bogdanov Chapter 3: 1.3 Prologue: Psych BogdanovKwon Taek Joo''s boat was parked at a corner of the dock. He did not encounter any obstacle even though he did not have a license because the boat had been previously registered for official purposes, and he did not need to go through any other procedures. Kwon Taek Joo took his suitcase and went into a nearby warehouse. When he left there after a while, he had changed into a neat suit. Kwon Taek Joo walked through the station where darkness fell. A taxi that he had called earlier was waiting for him when he walked out onto the main road. He got in the car and went to Busan station. The departure announcement of the KTX train departing for Seoul rang out when Kwon Taek Joo just arrived at the station. He joined the group of people heading down to the station platform. An early train is waiting. Kwon Taek Joo went through the nearby door, checked the seat number and sat down. It was late at night so the train carriage was very quiet. Drrrrr... drrr... As soon as he sat down, the phone in his pocket rang. It is used for personal purposes outside of work. As expected, the person calling was his mother. Kwon Taek Joo cleared his throat and answered the phone as usual. "Yes mom, I just got on the train. Cleaning up after the event is later than I thought so there''s only the last train left. Even if the train isn''t delayed, I won''t be there until early tomorrow morning so Mom, just go take a nap." Kwon Taek Joo answered as if reading a story by heart. The mother''s series of questions began. When will it depart, when exactly will it arrive, how will Kwon Taek Joo get from the station to home, etc. Since his mother only sees her son once or twice a year, the times he comes home again are even more special. He could only end the call after promising her that he would go home immediately without stopping by anywhere else. Kwon Taek Joo hung up the phone. The feeling of fatigue that I thought I had forgotten came rushing back. He suddenly sighed. The train closed and started departing for Seoul. He leaned back with his head still wet and felt the vibration of the train. An announcement of stops was made in the quiet train car. After the train driver''s voice stopped at the last station ''Seoul, the light seemed to gradually dim. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body sagged from the heat of the heater. His wet eyelids began to become dreamy. Eyelashes also seem heavier because of the sea salt. There are still 3 hours left before arriving. Should I get some sleep? The moment Kwon Taek Joo compromised with himself and was about to close his eyes. Drrrrr... drrrrr... A vibration sounded in his pocket. The phone he used to talk to his mother was still in his hand. So the bell ringing at this time is definitely for work purposes. Kwon Taek Joo tried to ignore it and tried to sleep, but the phone kept vibrating tirelessly. Obviously, they will definitely call until you receive the call. The noise made passengers in the same train car begin to feel uncomfortable. "Ha.." Kwon Taek Joo finally had to lift his body that was lying on his side and press the button to receive the call. -Where are you now? The person who suddenly asked the question was Chief Lim. As expected. If Yoon Jong Woo wasn''t buried under the sea, he would have received reports on the results of his activities directly from him. But why did Chief Lim call back? Kwon Taek Joo never felt anything good came from receiving contact from him. "Is something wrong?" -I want to see you for a moment. So why should I call? What''s up? The only thing Kwon Taek Joo could think about was the spy catching action that had just been completed. The incident should have been handled quietly, but there were many witnesses. An innocent citizen was also taken hostage, so high-ranking officials who received the report may have jumped up. In addition, the Coast Guard is also involved, so it will not be easy to handle everything. The reporters may have already sniffed out the incident, so it was not difficult to guess Chief Lim''s persistent questions. Even though he knew it would be useless. Kwon Taek Joo still tried to make excuses. "That''s really the best course of action this time. You know that." -Alright. So let''s come here and talk a little. Of course. If he hadn''t given such orders, he wouldn''t have been the great Chief Lim. Before starting this campaign, Kwon Taek Joo reminded him been the great Chief Lim. many times that tomorrow was the birthday of the mother who couldn''t sleep at night because she was worried about her only son. So no matter what happens, Kwon Taek Joo has to go home. What did Chief Lim say at that time? Didn''t he promise that even if the Second Korean War broke out. he would definitely return you to your mother? Kwon Taek Joo asked if he had forgotten and reminded him of the conversation at that time. "Chief, have you forgotten? Tomorrow is my mother''s birthday. -I won''t keep you for long. There''s no way to refuse anymore. Chief Lim is brazen and even stubborn. Kwon Taek Joo angrily ruffled his wet hair. He made his final argument while looking out at the rapidly passing scenery outside the train car window. "But the train has already left, how can I get there?" Right then. The KTX train that was operating smoothly suddenly stopped. Passengers who were listening to music or playing games on their phones all looked around in surprise and bewilderment. The KTX train was stopped for a while in the tunnel. There were no announcements in the cabin, nor were any flight attendants passing by. It is not uncommon for KTX trains to be damaged and stopped. For that reason, no passenger seemed too uncomfortable. Those who stuck their heads out into the aisles wondering what was going on quickly lost interest and went to sleep. That''s right, this is not a big deal. Kwon Taek Joo wants to believe that. But unfortunate omens always appear like ghosts. -Come down, hurry up. Chief Lim skillfully gave instructions. Kwon Taek Joo was about to ask, "What''s wrong?" then an announcement came out from the speaker "Because there was a problem on the track, the train had to stop for a moment and will depart as soon as the problem is resolved. We hope for your understanding." ''As soon as the problem is resolved. This means that if Kwon Taek Joo did not listen to the instructions, the train would not move like this. -Are you planning on not getting off the train? The gentle urging continued to sound. His voice was leisurely as if he was enjoying the current situation. Chief Lim''s attitude makes Kwon Taek Joo not want to follow his orders anymore. He also didn''t pay much attention to the other passengers. But as long as the train doesn''t move. Kwon Taek Joo has no way to go home. He tilted his head in irritation. Kwon Taek Joo even hung up the phone. Manager Lim also did not call back, and of course there was no sign that the dormitory was leaving Kwon Taek Joo sat for a moment, then sighed and stood up. As he walked through the hallway and exited, the train door opened as if it had been waiting. He shook his head and went down the stairs and walked on the gravel road. Kwon Taek Joo called while walking to the back of the train. As soon as he exited the tunnel, the stopped KTX started moving. That''s when he heard a reply from the other end of the phone: "Hello". That''s your mother. Her voice was deeper than before. She was definitely worried that her son, who had said he would definitely return, would use the excuse of urgent work to break his promise. "Mom, it''s me. There''s a problem with the train so I''ll be a little late. No, this time I''ll definitely come back, just a little late" He stopped for a moment and asked. "So mom, don''t light the candle but wait for me." The place where Kwon Taek Joo arrived on a prepared helicopter was the National Intelligence Agency. An employee waiting at the helipad guided him to the office of Deputy Chief 1. He followed silently and thought. The person I asked to see you earlier was Chief Lim, but for some reason you were taken to Deputy Chief 1''s office and not the Chief''s office. The three Deputy Directors are the top executives of the National Intelligence Agency, each in charge of an independent job. Each Deputy Head is not allowed to participate in matters beyond his or her authority. There is an unwritten rule that departments, of which there are dozens, must obey their immediate superiors. So Kwon Taek Joo and Chief Lim, who were participating in espionage and intelligence activities under Deputy Chief 3, did not need to meet at Deputy Chief 1''s office. Is there something wrong here? While a series of questions were still repeating in Kwon Taek Joo''s head, the employee knocked on the office door. Permission was soon given to go inside but it wasn''t Chief Lim''s voice. The employee personally opened the door to let him inside. Kwon Taek Joo forgot to say hello and just looked at the Deputy Manager 1 sitting across from him. It was no surprise that Deputy Chief 1 was sitting in his office. But the current situation he faced was ironic, because Chief Lim, the person who called Kwon Taek Joo over, was also sitting next to him. He looked straight at Chief Lim as if waiting for an explanation. Chief Lim just smiled in confusion. The atmosphere was unusual. Kwon Taek Joo glanced at Deputy Chief 1 and Chief Lim. As if trying to calm his wariness. Deputy Chief 1 spoke first with a gentle expression. "I heard you just finished your mission in Busan, right?" "Yes. I tried my best." Kwon Taek Joo responded as soon as Deputy Head 1''s words ended. Although there was some commotion, it is clear that Deputy Chief 1''s reprimand of Kwon Taek Joo was an abuse of power. Deputy Chief 1 and Chief Lim looked at Kwon Taek Joo who was defending and then smiled strangely. This feeling is not very pleasant. "That''s not the reason I called you here, so there''s no need to be so tense. Although there was more commotion than necessary during the operation, it was insignificant compared to the leak." state secret. Is that right, Chief Lim?" The implicitly sarcastic way of speaking is typical of an old fox manager, Kwon Taek Joo did not dispel his suspicions and looked at Chief Lim. He just shook his head with a smiling face, so for Kwon Taek Joo, things only became more confusing. If it weren''t for what happened in Busan, why would you summon me at this late hour? He thought all the time but couldn''t come to any conclusion Chief Lim did not stress Kwon Taek Joo any more. He put the tablet he was holding down on the table. "What is it?" "Let''s see first." Kwon Taek Joo shrugged and gently picked up the tablet. He nonchalantly flipped through the first page. The bored gaze scrolling through the news gradually accelerated. Kwon Taek Joo pulled down the screen. He held his breath and silently read the information on it and quickly turned to the next page. Chief Lim watched those movements for a moment then opened his mouth. S§×ar?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "This is special intelligence information recently obtained. This story has been rumored for a long time but this is the first time there is real evidence. As you have seen, the main content is North Korea and Russia began working together three years ago to develop the new weapon. The weapon boasts firepower that no other country in the world has ever had. It is said that once completed, the situation will change. Global hegemony will also change. Its name is Anastasia. I don''t know exactly whether that is the name of the weapon or the secret agreement between North Korea and Russia to produce weapons, or maybe even the name of the weapon''s manufacturer. Right now we don''t even know if this weapon has been completed or not." It seems that Kwon Taek Joo understood what the combination of Deputy Manager 1 and Director Lim meant. If North Korea and Russia work together to create unprecedented weapons of destruction, who will be in trouble? Without thinking too much, I knew it would be Korea and the United States. "We need to know what that weapon is, because the lack of information causes an imbalance of power. If ''Anastasia'' is not yet completed, and if possible, we should stop it before it appears." presently." "Can''t we do something for the peace of the world and humanity? Stealing is not always bad if that small bad thing is to prevent a big bad thing." Therefore, it is necessary to find out the identity of the weapons that North Korea and Russia have cooperated with. This means that, if necessary, the blueprints and related secrets must be retrieved, and if this is not possible, they must be destroyed so that they have no chance of ever seeing the light of day. Who will do it? Kwon Taek Joo himself? Since he started working as a special agent at the National Intelligence Agency, it was very normal for him to be sent on overseas operations. Rather, the days he spent abroad were more than the days he spent in Korea. For that reason, business travel directives are nothing new. But what is worth noting is that this mission was carried out in Russia. That is a land that Kwon Taek Joo personally has never set foot on, let alone carry out a strategy But it''s not like he''s not qualified. Kwon Taek Joo has been trained in Chinese, Persian and Russian since joining the headquarters. Even if he had to move to Moscow immediately, he himself would have no difficulty speaking the language. But that''s all. The most important thing for Kwon Taek Joo was that he had no field experience in Russia. Is there anything more important to an agent than actual combat experience? This mission is no different than asking Kwon Taek Joo to jump into the middle of a battlefield without a gun. And he couldn''t understand why this task was assigned to him. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes and looked at Chief Lim with a dissatisfied expression. He nodded as if he understood everything. "Strictly speaking, you are not the right person for this action." "Then you have to find someone qualified." "Of course I found it, and I sent it too." "But?" Chief Lim just scratched his eyebrows without continuing. Deputy Head 1 also smiled wryly. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know what the answer was because they couldn''t spit out anymore. "Probably not." Chief Lim nodded again and spread the three photos on the table. The first photo is of someone''s hand with 10 fingers amputated. His bloodless skin was swollen with water. Another photo shows the body''s forehead being covered with a white cloth with a pattern engraved in the middle of it. Kwon Taek Joo quickly realized it was a tattoo. Judging from the condition of the body''s skin, it seemed that the tattoo had only been engraved not long before. Finally, a neat ID photo. Based on a series of details, it can be assumed that this is the original shape of the body before being damaged. Kwon Taek Joo knows the person in the photo. "Dominic Morgan. He was an elite agent sent to Russia by the US intelligence agency. He was found dead on the banks of the Nara River four days ago. At that time he was in charge. The only task was to find out the identity of ''Anastasia'', and he was a very knowledgeable person in gathering Russian intelligence, but unfortunately, Russia treated him as an unknown death case, identity. Since he disguised himself with another identity to go to Russia, it''s only natural. But I wonder if they really consider him an "anonymous" person." "Because of that, Russia''s surveillance has become stricter. what do you want me to do?" "You understand what I''m saying. Anyway, let''s not make this any more complicated. Since it involves North Korea, our country can also be called a litigant, right? So we can''t just stand by and watch.". That''s right, you know Agent Morgan from the last joint Korean-American training course, right?" "We''ve only known each other for about a month at most, to be exact. I happened to be assigned to room with him." Everything is clear. Chief Lim grinned. He skillfully attacked Kwon Taek Joo who was trying not to reveal any loopholes. "That''s why I chose you. Because emotions clouding reason can lead to undesirable things." There are no other donkeys. Just as Kwon Taek Joo was about to angrily protest, a shaking sound suddenly rang out. It was Deputy Chief 1''s phone. He said "Wait a minute, please understand" then passed by Kwon Taek Joo and walked out. The door had just opened and then closed. Chief Lim gave the order as if he had been waiting for a long time. "On behalf of Agent Morgan, go find Anastasia." The gentleness from before was no longer there, replaced by a rather serious tone. Kwon Taek Joo stared at him without answering. Is this really the only way? There has to be someone more suitable for this action than Kwon Taek Joo. It''s obvious that there aren''t at least a few employees in the headquarters... Isn''t there even just one person? He racked his brain, but no character appeared in his mind. Chief Lim still looked calm as if nothing was so special. Yeah, it''s no big deal. Only one elite agent was found dead overnight, that''s all. Kwon Taek Joo was about to speak sarcastically but then remained silent. He worked under the direction of Chief Lim immediately after joining the headquarters. Now the two had become close enough to joke around, but one way or another he was still the superior. When Chief Lim assigns a task, Kwon Taek Joo is forced to obey. There is no resistance or refusal here. Chief Lim smiled with satisfaction at his resigned expression. "I promise to provide full support. I will arrange the team members according to your wishes." "It''s more comfortable to act alone." "It won''t be easy this time. Will it? It will be very difficult." "There''s no need to put more people to death when you know that." Kwon Taek Joo responded gently. Chief Lim smiled as if he knew he would say that. Immediately after that he produced a thick envelope containing documents. Kwon Taek Joo snatched it. The unsealed envelope.contained various documents and a fake passport. When he opened his passport, an unfamiliar face appeared. "Hiro Sakamoto?" "I heard that a contract to build an LNG facility was signed between a Japanese energy company and Gazprom, the Russian state-owned gas company. The expected profits alone are estimated to be in the tens of millions. Tens of trillions of won. For that reason, officials of energy companies, major banks responsible for cooperative lending, and international trading companies were invited to Russia to celebrate the signing of the contract between the two countries and visit the proposed construction site. Major officials including the prime ministers of the two countries and big men in the business world will all attend the event. I heard that an international trading company named ''Itochu'' played a big role in signing this contract. Hiro Sakamoto is the officer in charge of the European region. His name is proudly on the list of those expected to visit Russia." Will Kwon Taek Joo disguise himself as Hiro Sakamoto and infiltrate Russia? Not a bad plan. If it is true that North Korea and Russia are developing weapons, then very few people will be involved or know the secrets involved. They are in leading positions in Russia so it will not be easy to reach. But if it was Hiro Sakamoto, it would be a different story, because they would automatically meet without any effort. Of course, that''s only if his identity isn''t revealed. Besides Hiro Sakamoto, many other officials were also invited. If any of them noticed that Hiro Sakamoto was different than usual, all their plans would be in vain. Although Kwon Taek Joo only imagined it for a moment, Agent Morgan''s outcome still appeared in his mind. Chief Lim reassured the confused Kwon Taek Joo. "Relax. Unless another Hiro Sakamoto appears, there is no chance of your identity being exposed. Hiro Sakamoto is scheduled to leave the country the day before the delegation''s visit. All But in reality, agents in Tokyo will help prevent him from leaving the country." The headquarters'' camouflage skills were good enough to fool even his mother, and it seemed like there was no need to worry about the Japanese being relatively shorter than him. Tohiro Sakamoto''s height is 180cm. Kwon Taek Joo is about 2 to 3 cm taller than him, but the average person wouldn''t be able to tell the difference. If anyone gets suspicious, just tell them you''re wearing insoles. If it were normal, Kwon Taek Joo wouldn''t have given it much thought. Unless he takes off his professional uniform, he has no right to refuse orders from his superiors. But he couldn''t bring himself to agree easily. For some reason, Kwon Taek Joo felt an unrelenting sense of insecurity. Because the agent Morgan in charge of the mission is dead? It would be a lie to say it didn''t affect him at all, but that wasn''t the only reason. Kwon Taek Joo''s instinct was to feel vaguely worried about something that hadn''t even happened yet. "It''s about rearranging world hegemony. If this succeeds, your position will change significantly." Manager Lim skillfully encouraged determination, Kwon Taek Joo looked straight at him without saying a word. His eyes were straightforward and resolute. Chief Lim faced him with his signature smile. No words were spoken between the two for a long while. Not long after, Kwon Taek Joo stuffed the prepared envelope into his jacket. He also added as if to clarify everything. "I don''t care about status or power. Those things have an unnecessarily fierce aspect." "So why did you accept this combat action if you have no interest in it?" "This is an order from a senior manager. Does a subordinate like me have the right to refuse?" "Besides, that is there any other reason?" "If I refuse this action, my career, which has always been 100% successful, will collapse." "Anyway, of course it is." "Can I go yet?" "Oh, also, there''s one thing to note." "What''s up?" Kwon Taek Joo asked with an annoyed look. Chief Lim''s attitude has become rigid. His eyes quietly observed Kwon Taek Joo and seemed quite cautious. The voice that came out immediately after seemed to calm down a bit. "Psych Bogdanov." "Psych Bogdanov? Your name... doesn''t seem right?" Kwon Taek Joo frowned and tilted his head. ''Boedanov'' is supposed to be a Russian surname, but ''Psych'' is not a human name no matter how you look at it. What parent would call their child ''crazy''? Chief Lim explained as if Kwon Taek Joo hadn''t heard wrong. "People often call him that rather than his real name." A name that is used more often by another person than that person''s real name. Then that nickname can become the basis for evaluating the litigant. The fact that the Russian that Chief Lim mentioned was called "crazy man" Bogdanov instead of his real name meant that he was quite a famous name. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know what kind of person he is even in this far away country he is called that. "In Russia, this man is like ''nuclear" "If ''nuclear'' then nuclear means ''center of gravity''?" Kwon Taek Joo asked suspiciously. This is due to the ambiguity of the language. In addition to the meaning of ''core'' or ''focus, ''core'' also has a completely different meaning. But why would people compare a person to such a deadly weapon? He looked at Chief Lim wonderingly, he grinned again. "That''s right, it can be understood that way." In any case, that meaning seems closer to ''nuclear'' which refers to nuclear weapons. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously frowned. After all, what kind of person is this who is called "crazy" more often than his real name, and even symbolizes nuclear bomb? Thoughts on ''Psych Bogdanov'' raise another question. Why was he mentioned in the campaign whose purpose was to find ''Anastasia'' this time? "Did that person have anything to do with Morgan''s death?" "I''m not sure. There''s no concrete evidence, although there''s a lot of speculation. If you want to get close to Russia''s big guys, you won''t be able to avoid confronting this person. ''Nuclear'' It''s not natural, it''s ''nuclear''. So damage can happen, so even if we meet. don''t confront each other." A burst of laughter rang out. The more warnings Kwon Taek Joo received, the more curious Kwon Taek Joo was about who that crazy person was. At that moment, a knock on the door rang out. When Chief Lim agreed, the employee who guided Kwon Taek Joo here also walked in. In his hands was a large bouquet of flowers and a suitcase. He handed them over to Kwon Taek Joo then silently bowed and went out. "I''ve prepared everything you need. To save time and money, you don''t have to worry too much. Is that right? Especially after buying underwear two months ago, you have no transactions." I don''t want to buy anything anymore so I took your preferences into consideration and replaced everything. No need to thank me." "You know the condition of my underwear better than I do, don''t you?" "There''s only so much I can do. And bring flowers home. I remember you said today is mom''s birthday, right?" This man is so cunning. Kwon Taek Joo swallowed back the words he couldn''t spit out and replied gruffly. "I won''t tell Mom it''s a gift from the Chief. If she finds out it was sent by a man who took your son away on his birthday then that will only put a damper on her mood." My mother''s good day just got worse." "Thank you for thinking about me." Chief Lim smiled brazenly. "Don''t die!" Kwon Taek Joo was about to turn around and leave when suddenly a request was made. He stopped for a moment and nodded absentmindedly. He walked out into the deserted hallway. Kwon Taek Joo trudged towards the door. The sensor light turns on and off from behind each place he passes. The lights dimmed and darkness descended as if to swallow him. "..." He suddenly stopped walking and turned to look. The ceiling light finally turned off. Kwon Taek Joo''s silhouette was buried in dense darkness.

Chapter 5 - 1.5 New Mission: First Meeting Chapter 5: 1.5 New Mission: First MeetingA low, commanding voice rang out. The man sitting in the driver''s seat obediently followed instructions. The moving sedan stopped in the middle of a narrow alley. Vasily did not resist and raised both hands. "You have quite a dangerous toy, Mr. Sakamoto." "Who exactly are you guys?" "I told you. My name is Vasily Alexandrovich, and I''ve come to pick you up." "Alexandrovich has nothing to do with Gazprom, right?" "Just a little." At that moment. Suddenly the backseat door opened, a man walked in and pushed Kwon Taek Joo. In his hand was a Tokarev, a Russian rapid-fire pistol. The black muzzle of the gun immediately touched Kwon Taek Joo''s temple. Not only that, a red dot flew out from somewhere and hovered near his left chest. He was completely surrounded. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his teeth in tension. "Wouldn''t it be better to stay silent, Mr. Sakamoto?" Vasily hummed as if singing, word by word. There are no clues as to who he is. In the end, what is this Vasily aiming at? Only one thing is clear: Kwon Taek Joo must get out of this bad situation immediately. But how? If he keeps moving casually, his head and chest will become a honeycomb. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes and looked around. The only thing illuminating the dark alley was the sedan''s headlights. No, there was also a light inside the car illuminating Vasily''s smiling face. "Don''t play tricks. Your head will..." Before Vasily''s warning ended, Kwon Taek Joo''s upper body bent down as a gunshot rang out. The lights inside the car went out as a bullet flew out without warning. Next was another sniper bullet flying from a nearby rooftop. Clear gunshots and cracking sounds rang out one after another. That was the sound of the back seat window shattering After that momentary commotion, there was an overwhelming silence. There was no movement around the car. The sniper slowly moved the barrel of the gun and did not lose his guard. The next moment, the stopped car suddenly accelerated into a narrow alley without turning on its headlights. The car drove wildly and crashed into a trash can and the wall of a building. The snipers opened fire simultaneously, but only the shock absorbers and rearview mirrors were destroyed. "If you don''t want to fall into the same situation, you better be obedient." Kwon Taek Joo wiped the blood from his face and threatened the driver. That blood belongs to the guy who pushed him into the backseat just now. He was tilting his head back and drooping after becoming Kwon Taek Joo''s shield and being shot by the sniper. Vasily''s situation is not much different. He was lying on the dashboard with a bullet through the middle of his face. The driver, drenched in someone else''s blood, was driving the sedan and did not dare to resist. Kwon Taek Joo wrapped her arms around his neck from behind and guided each direction of movement. The problem is that no matter how hard I drive, the car cannot get to the main road. The car moved with its headlights turned off because the snipers were still ambushing from afar. It''s hard to know if there''s a dead end ahead. Once again. "..." Something was moving quickly between the buildings. It was an existence that Kwon Taek Joo had only seen not long ago. Is it a cat? No, it''s much bigger and heavier than that. At the same time, its movements became even more agile. Kwon Taek Joo confusedly looked around searching for the existence that had disappeared in the darkness, but he couldn''t see that image anywhere again. Once may be an illusion, but the second time it cannot be an illusion. He turned around uncomfortably and looked around. Suddenly a sedan rushed out from the next alley. The ''bang'' sound rang out at the same time the car body suddenly rushed forward, the back seat where Kwon Taek Joo was sitting suddenly floated in the air. That short moment seemed like an eternity. Time seemed to stop and Kwon Taek Joo''s vision suddenly turned upside down in the blink of an eye. His whole body continuously banged against the car''s body. Shards of broken glass flew everywhere. The four wheels of the overturned car spun in the blink of an eye. The whole area became quiet again. The two sides of the car collided with no movement other than the whine of the engine. How long has it been? A sudden noise broke the long silence. Someone was trying to escape by kicking the completely deformed door multiple times. That''s Kwon Taek Joo. He was crawling out through the door. "..Aaa" He tried to get up from the ground and then fell to his knees again because his head was suddenly spinning. It appeared that he had hit the safety bar and suffered a mild concussion in the accident. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head to try to regain composure, then clung to the car body and stood up with difficulty. He looked at the driver''s seat in front. It was completely quiet there. With a broken window full of blood like this, the driver will not be able to escape unharmed. And the remaining car also didn''t seem to have any significant movement at all. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know how the situation is going. What is the identity of the people who suddenly appeared and intended to kidnap Kwon Taek Joo or more precisely Hiro Sakamoto? For what purpose is this done? Since they knew Hiro Sakamoto''s schedule and background, they were probably not a normal group of criminals. Instead of saying that there was something wrong on the Japanese company''s part, it seems more reasonable to say that they had something to do with the Russian government or Gazprom by holding Japanese officials hostage. But it is also unfair that Kwon Taek Joo himself is not the real Hiro Sakamoto but is being punished on his behalf. After all, why did he have to work so hard as soon as he set foot in Russia? Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and headed towards the back of the car with the intention of getting his luggage. He was struggling to open the trunk when an unpleasant sound rang out from behind. "Raise your hand." Kwon Taek Joo was startled reflexively. For a moment, the clatter of reloading guns fell into his ears. If he moved one more time, the trigger would be pulled. He raised his hand with a dissatisfied expression and then silently followed orders to turn around. The face of the man pointing the gun appeared, making him shiver. His head was broken and he was bleeding so it looked like he was in the other car. The man''s gun looked very familiar. It is clear that he is on the same side as Vasily. "What should I do?" While Kwon Taek Joo was straining to find a solution, the familiar Colt lying at the man''s feet caught his eye. "Slowly go this way, be smart and don''t do stupid things." The man''s appearance was so pathetic that it was funny to hear such a threat from him. But Kwon Taek Joo still obediently followed instructions. No matter what, he couldn''t kill Kwon Taek Joo because if he could, he would have done it right away. As expected, the man showed no intention of killing. Rather, he seemed worried about a situation where he would be forced to shoot. Even though he had a gun and had the upper hand, he became more restless as the distance narrowed. It seems to be easier than Kwon Taek Joo thought. Just as he had a glimmer of optimism, he was grabbed by the back of his neck. "Take off your coat. I don''t know what else you''re hiding inside." Is there another name? Kwon Taek Joo glanced back but it was a face he didn''t recognize. He could only guess that that guy was the sniper from earlier based on the rifle he was holding. He shrugged and obediently took off his jacket, leaving only the right sleeve. Kwon Taek Joo pretended to pull his right arm out of his sleeve and then suddenly used force to pull the entire jacket towards him. The sniper, holding on to the shirt with just one hand, lost his balance momentarily because of the rifle. Kwon Taek Joo threw the jacket he just grabbed back at the man pointing a gun at him. When his vision was obscured by the flying shirt, the man panicked and pulled the trigger. During that time, Kwon Taek Joo tightly grasped the sniper''s rifle. He tried to keep his gun from being taken away, so he was pulled down. "Sniff!" An explosion rang out at the same time as the sniper groaned. When he shook off the jacket covering his face, Kwon Taek Joo had already run far away. Red blood flowed from the body of the sniper who was hit by a stray bullet and fell to the ground. He trembled in anger and began shooting wildly. However, none of those bullets hit the target. The bullets ran out soon after and they chased Kwon Taek Joo with the dead sniper''s rifle. Kwon Taek Joo just looked straight ahead and started running. The advantage right now is that the surrounding is pitch black, but the disadvantage is also that. There is almost no place to hide. If you run into a dead end, it will be even more dangerous. Even when he started running, the pursuer continued to shoot. Most of the bullets missed Kwon Taek Joo by just an inch and left bullet holes on the building. Every time an alley appeared, Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate and rushed straight into that direction. Damn. Another gunshot rang out, and something shattered above his head. The incoming bullet probably broke the flower pot placed next to the window, causing it to fall to the ground. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head to shake off the dirt and debris and turned onto a small road that had just appeared. At that moment, a truck came out from there. Kwon Taek Joo rolled over the bonnet to reduce the force of the collision. The four doors of the stopped car opened simultaneously. Armed men appeared from there, even the man who had been chasing Kwon Taek Joo all this time had joined that group. The group exchanged a few words and then suddenly pointed their guns. "...Damned." If you defeat one, another will appear, and if you eliminate that guy, another will come running. How long will Kwon Taek Joo have to repeat this? He slowly walked backwards and started running again. He ran as fast as he could while cursing continuously. After running for a while like that, a wide open space appeared in his sight. There is an abandoned building under construction there. The building was left open with no front or rear walls, only the bare frame remained. Materials such as cement and steel frames are scattered everywhere. There is no time to weigh and measure anymore. The only place Kwon Taek Joo can hide until now is there. He entered the building down the dusty stairs. "ha, ha, ha..." Kwon Taek Joo climbed to the 4th floor and let out the breath he had been holding, His heart beat so painfully hard that it made him nauseous. He only had a thin shirt on but he didn''t even feel cold. The group of people chasing Kwon Taek Joo gradually arrived under the building. After a count, there were four names in total. What about the other name? Kwon Taek Joo gently walked closer to the wall next to the stairs. He leaned his back against the wall and listened to the movements below. It seemed like someone was secretly approaching him. Kwon Taek Joo quietly took off his belt and held it with both hands. Soon, the muzzle of a rifle protruded from the wall as he climbed each step. Not missing that moment, Kwon Taek Joo threw the buckle of the belt horizontally. The belt came off and wrapped around the barrel of the gun again due to the recoil force and returned to Kwon Taek Joo''s hand. He immediately grabbed it and tugged on it. Bang bang bang bang. Bullets were fired continuously from the rifle upward. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly released one side of the belt he was pulling tight and swung it with all his might. The belt whipped the back of the man''s hand like a whip. The man screamed violently and dropped the gun. Kwon Taek Joo kicked the rifle forward that had just fallen to the floor and wrapped his belt around the neck of the man trying to pick it up. The strangled man struggled with his legs. S~ea??h the n?vel_Fire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Ugh!" Kwon Taek Joo put more effort into tightening the belt. The man''s body trembled for a long time and then gradually relaxed. When Kwon Taek Joo loosened his grip, the man fell to his knees. He kicked him down and let out a breath. So one guy can be dealt with Just then. the downstairs became noisy. It seemed like a whole group of people rushed in after hearing the gunshots earlier. The gun was lying in a position facing the stairs. If he doesn''t pick it up in time, Kwon Taek Joo won''t be able to shoot back and he will become a honeycomb. You cannot subdue an armed group with your bare hands. Kwon Taek Joo took another deep breath and quickly rolled to the other side. The group had almost climbed the stairs when he picked up the rifle that had fallen on the floor. When facing Kwon Taek Joo from the front, they pointed their guns without hesitation. But Kwon Taek Joo pulled the trigger first. Gunshots rang out one after another, two men fell down screaming in despair. The bullets fired from their guns accidentally hit the ceiling. Kwon Taek Joo without hesitation threw away his rifle, which now had only an empty magazine, and moved forward. So there are 2 more names finished. He mentally calculated the remaining names and observed the movement below. "..." Suddenly he raised his head. Because something else immediately caught his attention. But as soon as Kwon Taek Joo looked back, there was no one there. Why do you keep seeing meaningless things? Because he was so stressed, his breathing was louder than usual. All Kwon Taek Joo could think about was that he saw something wrong. He didn''t have time to be swayed by such vague intuition. But he also couldn''t shake that annoying sixth sense. "..." Again. Kwon Taek Joo stood up and looked up at the building opposite. The distance is too far so the image is not clear. He squinted his eyes to look, but the large figure floating on the rooftop quickly disappeared. Kwon Taek Joo never believed in ghosts. But it was also difficult to say that the image he had just witnessed was not such an existence, since it was impossible for humans to move like that. Kwon Taek Joo was facing a series of questions appearing in his mind at the wrong time when a fierce attack came from below. The bullets flying continuously turned the floor he was standing on just now into dust. Kwon Taek Joo had difficulty avoiding bullets and looking for signs of the enemy. The remaining two had drawn up a plan of attack. One jumped into the building and the other raised his gun and readied it. Kwon Taek Joo quickly looked around. He had to find a way to fight back against his would-be attacker, but there was no place for him to hide and no suitable weapon in sight At that moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out from below. Kwon Taek Joo stopped and listened in the direction of the gunshots. In an instant, he heard a scream that felt like it was being torn apart. "Sooo!" No, it was more like a roar. It''s not very far, just somewhere right below. Kwon Taek Joo waited a bit but he couldn''t feel anything anymore. He looked outside the building to understand the situation. The man waiting outside was also looking around with a bewildered expression, perhaps he was also surprised by the gunshots and screams. As soon as he discovered Kwon Taek Joo, he suddenly pulled the trigger. He quickly turned around to avoid the incoming bullet. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know what''s going on. It wasn''t long before even the man who was still outside entered the building. Cop. Cop. Cop. There was the sound of leisurely footsteps going up the stairs. It gets closer and bigger. In a moment it will reach the 4th floor. If that''s the case then there''s no other choice but to end it. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the right button and tore it off. The button fell and a long, thin string protruded, accompanied by a small mechanical sound. It''s a mini bomb. Kwon Taek Joo will overcome this crisis by throwing it. He cut the wire, rolled up the bomb and waited for the man from before to appear. "..?" But that man didn''t appear for quite a while. The surrounding was quiet as if Kwon Taek Joo was the only person in the building. He couldn''t even hear his breathing, let alone the footsteps that were chasing him. What happened? Or is he hiding somewhere and waiting for Kwon Taek Joo to make the first move? He raised his head again and looked at the clearing. There was not a single person in sight. By this time the questions about what was going on had reached a peak. "..." Suddenly something reached out right next to his face. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally looked in that direction, stiffened and unable to move. What was being stretched out was a human arm. And the person hanging from the end of his arm was the man who rushed into the building earlier. Kwon Taek Joo could only recognize his identity based on the outfit he was wearing, because his face was being squeezed by that large hand. More precisely, long, straight fingers were stuck in that man''s eyeballs. The man was pushed out of the building almost floating because his fingers had gone through his eyes and got stuck in his eye sockets. His legs trembled in the air. "Ah ah... ugh...cough..." A strange groan came from the man''s mouth. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyebrows furrowed. His back felt frozen. He didn''t dare turn his head to see who that monster-like hand was. It is not a matter of courage but of instinctive refusal. He didn''t even dare to breathe The owner of the crane-like arm did not prolong the situation any longer. He shook off the man hanging on his finger like he was removing a strand of hair stuck to his body. Without the slightest hesitation. The man kept falling. A rumble rang out from under the building. Now all that''s left is Kwon Taek Joo. No, there''s also that unidentified murderer. He could tell without looking back that he was within range where he could grab him simply by extending his arms. His wet eyes slid down his spine like a hungry animal looking for prey. Kwon Taek Joo firmly believes that the disappearing existence he has seen since being kidnapped is him. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eves and then slowly opened them. He tried to regain his composure. Each of his temporarily frozen senses awakened. Meanwhile, the existence he could not yet grasp finally began to exist. A shadow that towered above his own reach. A pungent scent numbs the tip of the nose. It carries a unique cold energy that can suppress all air currents. Kwon Taek Joo clutched the cuff in his hand. No matter how talented this killer is. he will not be safe when the bomb explodes. Because the distance with him was too close, if he was unlucky, his limbs would fly away. But that''s not something to worry about right now when his head could still fly away under his hands. All Kwon Taek Joo has to do is attack suddenly and stuff a bomb in his eyes, nose or mouth. With that determination, he turned around. But before Kwon Taek Joo could do anything, the hand holding the bomb was grabbed, followed by his vision suddenly turning upside down before his mind could realize what was happening. The wind caused the bomb to slip out of his hand and fly away. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly in anticipation of the terrible pain, but the explosion rang out from underneath the building. The heat soared. That was the moment his last fortress disappeared in vain. Kwon Taek Joo''s head came into contact with the rough cement floor. The only thing that caught his eye was a pair of long, straight legs and crocodile leather shoes with a special pointed toe, something he had seen in magazines. Its smooth appearance reminded him of the body of a crocodile, making it even more memorable. Its price is about 4 thousand dollars. A luxury not suitable for a murderer. "It''s dirty. Can you take it off a bit?" Those were his first words. His voice was not as deep as he thought, he seemed quite young. But what is he asking Kwon Taek Joo to take off? The only thing that was dirty was his hand that stabbed someone else''s eye. A vague idea flashed through his mind but he tried to ignore it. If even the remaining shirt was taken away, he would freeze to death before being killed bv this bastard. But it seems he is not very patient. While Kwon Taek Joo was still pretending not to pay attention, an object with a familiar texture touched his head that was being pressed down. It''s a Colt. "...Damned." Kwon Taek Joo cursed and unbuttoned his shirt. Because his right arm was grabbed by him, he could only use his left hand. And because it''s a new shirt, even the button grooves are stiff. making it quite difficult. Just as he was about to undo the second button, he grabbed the back of his shirt. The shirt ripped instantly. The button popped out with great force and hit Kwon Taek Joo on the chin and cheek. Something cold replaced his hand and wrapped around his bent wrist. When he withdrew his hand. Kwon Taek Joo heard a rattling sound. Those are handcuffs. The remaining handcuffs were fixed to a nearby iron bar. Only his head was still on the floor. His shadow moved leisurely and slowly. When that movement stopped, the shirt stained with blood and body fluids fell to the floor. Next he took a deep breath and exhaled longer. Looks like he''s smoking or something. With his slowing breathing, the delicate scent emanating from him became even more intense. It''s not the usual nicotine smell. It''s darker, deeper and spicier than that. Kwon Taek Joo could feel the moisture from that unique scent. What is it? Before long, something fell into his inverted vision. It''s the tip of a handmade cigar left over after smoking. After the bastard finished smoking, he immediately turned around and left. The straight legs gradually moved away. It seemed he had no intention of taking back the handcuffs so he just kept going down the stairs. He''s quite tall. It took a while for Kwon Taek Joo to see the back of his head. That is all. Only after the mysterious man''s presence completely subsided was Kwon Taek Joo able to let out a breath. His whole body no longer had any strength. The body, which was stiff and stiff, also fell down. When the assassin disappeared, the chill of fantasy subsided and the cold of reality began to cut into the flesh. The wind blew against his body, making his goosebumps not even dare to rise, as if his skin was freezing and cracking. Damned. Kwon Taek Joo swallowed a curse and lied down on the floor in frustration. Before long, a rather familiar sound rang in his ears. It is from far away and gradually getting closer. It was the sound of a police car siren. Chapter 6 - 1.6 New Mission: Cohiba Behike Limited Edition Chapter 6: 1.6 New Mission: Cohiba Behike Limited EditionKwon Taek Joo was detained at the police station for a long time. A policeman passing by gave him a thick blanket. I don''t know when it was washed, but a musty smell hit his nose. But even when the heater was turned on, the coldness still filled the room. Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to cover himself with something. He wrapped himself in the blanket and looked down at his throbbing wrist, which had just been bandaged. Inside, the murderer''s fingerprints were still intact. He must have been so surprised that he didn''t feel any pain even after receiving first aid. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even know that his wrist was dislocated and only when the medical staff was about to give him first aid did Kwon Taek Joo realize why he couldn''t use strength in his hand. He moved his fingers sticking out of the bandage and laughed to himself. It''s impossible to say. Not only was he suddenly kidnapped, but out of nowhere a murderous bastard suddenly appeared to save Kwon Taek Joo and then suddenly disappeared. No. Can we call that ''saving''? His shirt was taken away, and even his healthy wrist was now dislocated. If the police had been even a little late, he would have been a frozen corpse. Is that guy human? A grown man''s wrist was broken just because he grabbed it? If it was a fragile or vulnerable body. he could at least understand. One of the things Kwon Taek Joo is proud of is his strong and sturdy muscles. But now that I think about it, his strength is truly beyond my imagination. At that moment the person in charge appeared again. He sat down, causing the old chair to creak. "This incident seems to be carried out by people who are dissatisfied with this contract. Because this is a large-scale project, there will definitely be jealous people. I heard that the capital amount is up to 10 thousand billion won, right?" Although he was nominally a civil servant, he referred to the contract between nations as a war. When it came to expected profits, even his cloudy eyes lit up. Kwon Taek Joo remained silent and did not respond, but only looked dissatisfied at the clock on the wall. He wanted to get back to the hotel as quickly as possible. But even then the official in charge was still very excited and said that he hoped this incident would not cause any prejudice to Russia and that no matter what, he would definitely find out who is behind the incident. A superior who was about to go out to dinner wondered why Kwon Taek Joo was still here and allowed him to leave. "My baggage..." "Oh, you mean the bag in their car? If it was that, I would have brought it over there. I also checked to see if there were any bombs or location tracking devices inside. You don''t need to thank me because these are just small things." It seems like I definitely have to say thank you. Kwon Taek Joo nodded and stood up. Just as the police officer said, a bag was placed right in front of the door. Kwon Taek Joo quickly grabbed it and left the office. He went down the stairs to find his way back to the hotel, the policeman from earlier followed him. Kwon Taek Joo tried to ignore him because he thought he just happened to be on the same road, but the police officer continued to follow and kept a certain distance from him. Finally Kwon Taek Joo stopped walking and looked back. "What is wrong.... " You were targeted once, and there''s no law that says you won''t be targeted a second time. Now that their accomplice is dead, you''ll probably get even more revenge. So I''ll take you back to the hotel safely." Then, as is his habit, he added a sentence. "Ah, you don''t have to thank me." Of course, I still have to thank you. The police officer walked ahead without confirming Kwon Taek Joo''s intentions and said, "This way". Unnecessary kindness is nothing more than a nuisance, but Kwon Taek Joo is currently Hiro Sakamoto. A civilian who is suddenly kidnapped and whose life is threatened has no reason to refuse the protection of public authorities. He reluctantly accepted the policeman''s goodwill. In the parking lot there was a Volga with paint peeling off one side and dented in many places, looking like it was at least 15 years old. He took a decent set of clothes from his bag and put them on. The police officer struggled to open the distorted trunk and put Kwon Taek Joo''s bag inside, then he sat in the driver''s seat and started the engine. The old car body vibrates continuously. Kwon Taek Joo hesitated whether to sit in the back seat or not. A little disrespect isn''t enough to kill you. But Japanese people tend to avoid rudeness and inconvenience. Finally, he sighed as if he was dying and opened the passenger door. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally sat down and put his hand under his butt. It seemed like something was spreading underneath, and a sock was pulled out. The police officer quickly grabbed it and threw it back. Pieces of bread, paper cups, and adult magazines lying on the dashboard were also thrown everywhere. "I thought you only worked with paperwork but I guess you also like sports a lot, right?" He quickly opened his mouth to cover his embarrassment. It seemed like he had noticed Kwon Taek Joo''s body a while ago. Muscles that are naturally trained while working are different from muscles that are inflated artificially. It is not suitable for people who spend all day at their desk. He shrugged and said that physical strength is also important if you want to sit for a long time. Even while speaking, his ears still felt itchy. It had been a while and the car had not left the police station, because the rear wheel had a problem and had to be replaced before departure. Kwon Taek Joo intended to take a taxi by the way, but the police officer insisted on taking him home under the pretext of protecting the victim and witnesses. Finally, the new tire was replaced and the car was able to leave the police station. "Go back to the hotel, don''t think about anything and just rest. If you can''t sleep, drinking a glass of vodka is also a good idea. We will properly punish the group of people who caused you trouble. But What did you say just now?" The officer who was talking to himself suddenly tilted his head. The question was vague so Kwon Taek Joo just looked at him without answering. "What''s wrong? Didn''t you say that in addition to the dead people at the scene, there was another person? That guy was wearing luxurious cowhide shoes. Also, you said it smelled bad, right? That guy used his hand to gouge out his eyes." of another guy and made him fall down the building. Is that right?" During his time at the police station, Kwon Taek Joo repeated what he witnessed at the scene. But the officer in charge couldn''t remember any of it accurately. That means he didn''t pay attention. It seemed like everything he said was just empty words. Anyway, Kwon Taek Joo didn''t expect anything from the beginning. He sighed and corrected "Not cow leather shoes but crocodile leather." "Maybe it''s just its shape like that. Crocodile-style cowhide shoes" "Definitely crocodile leather, that''s true. I don''t remember the exact brand but the price must be at least 250,000 rubles. Dark brown color, size from US 13 to 14. good condition as if it was just taken out of the box. That means the shoes haven''t been used for long or they were recently purchased. That means the person must be quite wealthy." Kwon Taek Joo angrily tried to refute but ended up making a mistake. Before he knew it, the police officer threw a surprised look at him. He looked blankly and said that because it was the product he was eyeing. It wasn''t a completely unreasonable statement, but the policeman still couldn''t easily take his eyes off him. He looked at him as if he was suspicious of something and then laughed. "Yes, then let''s call it crocodile skin. His words sounded as if he were compromising with all his generosity. Kwon Taek Joo uncomfortably changed the shirt he was wearing. It seems that he is becoming a difficult person because of unnecessary things. Even though he tried to stay calm, he still felt uncomfortable. If he continues to suppress his anger, he will explode. The running car received the stop signal and stopped. Kwon Taek Joo, who had kept calm until then, couldn''t hold anymore and opened his mouth. "And it''s not a stinky smell either, but a burning smell. It''s not a regular cigarette but more like a handmade cigar. "Yeah, I''ll consider that too." He answered absentmindedly. For some reason, the police officer didn''t seem to care about the murderer who appeared blatantly in the middle of the city, but on the contrary, he seemed very interested in Japanese women. Along the way, he kept asking questions like whether they really served their husbands like a boss and whether the kimono''s belt was a mat that could lie anywhere. Kwon Taek Joo seemed to be sure that this damn Russian policeman would never catch that murderer. After a period of patience that seemed like it was about to die, the car finally pulled up to a luxury hotel. "Come on, we''re here. We don''t know when they''ll target you again, so it''s best for you to change places if possible. If you need a personal bodyguard, you can contact me privately. I''ll try my best to help you. Oh, there''s no need to spend anything. Just think about buying me wine later." Now Kwon Taek Joo can''t even smile reluctantly. He used all his strength to pull his stiff mouth up. "I''ll think about it slowly. There''s already a lot to worry about today." "It''s nothing. This is just Russian hospitality. You don''t need to thank me." Again, why not repeat these words? He nodded and quickly left. The policeman gave him a creepy goodbye by telling him to call him if he needed a drinking buddy. Kwon Taek Joo walked into the lobby, the porter tok the bag in his hand. The hotel was less than an hour from the airport, but due to the plane being late, being kidnapped, and receiving an investigation, he arrived half a day later than expected. Kwon Taek Joo was completely exhausted, slowly walking towards the reception desk. "Please come in." He skipped the polite greeting and just silently handed over his passport and credit card. The employee looked at his extremely tired expression and quietly hurriedly checked the information. It wasn''t long before he was able to receive his room key. Kwon Taek Joo intended to go straight to the assigned room but hesitated. He thought for a moment then turned back and asked. "Are there any handmade cigar shops around here?" "Handmade cigars are also available at our hotel shop. We have a wide variety of products, so you will be able to find a cigar that suits your taste. Just come back. Come back to the lobby. Here, I''ll show you about the facilities." The employee produced a catalog. He immediately followed the direction he directed. Even though he really wanted to rest, with this feeling of uneasiness that he couldn''t shake, it was better to confirm a few things. Once the real mission begins, it will be difficult for him to find time for it. Kwon Taek Joo quickly found a shop that sold handmade cigars. The splendid appearance and high-quality products placed in the display window immediately attracted his attention. Kwon Taek Joo walked inside without hesitation. The bright-looking employee who was arranging the store cheerfully greeted him, "Hello, customers." "Are you looking for anything in particular?" "I don''t know the brand but I Happened to smell that scent." Kwon Taek Joo looked around vaguely. The employee slightly raised his dark eyebrows and walked out to the display counter. "Cuban handmade cigars are considered the best cigars in the world. Most of the cigars here are Cuban cigars, just different brands. 100% handmade does not mean it is produced on a small scale. The cigar he sees now is ''Macanudo'', the number one seller in the United States. Selling a lot means it''s popular. It''s perfect for beginners. The mild flavor is the best." S~ea??h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo is considered a beginner in handmade cigars. He looked at the ''Macanudo'' the seller gave him. "How much does this cost?" "It costs $7 a cigarette. It''s very affordable." "So that''s probably not it." He returned the cigar. The employee placed it on the shelf and confirmed it again. "Are you looking for that cigar you happened to find?" "Yes, I really want to know what kind it is." "Hmm. Then please give me a hint." He smiled curiously. It seemed the salesman was very interested in the challenge of finding a specific product among the dozens or hundreds of cigar varieties based solely on the scents he encountered. It''s like a puzzle associated with the pride of experts. "That''s what someone wearing $4k worth of shoes sucked." "Shoes are consumer items so the person seems quite wealthy. Such people usually look for the highest quality in everything. All the products here are good, but there are some that are exceptional. This masterpiece is called ''Romeo and Julieta''. Its flavor is spicy and rich. You can also feel the smell of damp earth, mushrooms and sweet honey." "It smells moist but not earthy or mushroomy. It smells slightly sweet but far from honey." "It wouldn''t be El Rey del Mundo if it didn''t smell earthy. Do you smell burnt wood? What about leather?" "Yes. I think it''s closer to the smell of burning wood. It doesn''t smell like leather" "Is that smell very strong?" "Umm... not very strong." "Then it wouldn''t be a Montecristo, but what about Bodhi? Is the whole thing a long cylinder? Or is the head and feet both pointed?" "All I see is the residue left after smoking. It''s not sharp. I also feel the same scent as Aroma." "Ah, if so, is it really this one?" The employee smiled brightly and took out a cigar. Although Kwon Taek Joo did not specifically ask, he explained in detail. "It''s called Cohiba Behike. Its characteristic is a deep and delicate scent. It has an Aroma that is both strong and sweet, but also subtle enough to create a wonderful overall flavor. Do you want to try?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded silently. The seller lights ''Cohiba Behike'' with a specialized cigar lighter. Unlike a regular cigarette, the tip of a cigar burns slowly as if a fallen leaf had just caught fire. The ash does not fall to the floor but remains sticky and retains its shape. He enjoyed the aroma of the cigar filling his mouth. Kwon Taek Joo could even smell the smoke when looking at the burning cigar. But in the end he shook his head. "It''s similar. but a little different." "How is it different?" "The overall feeling is quite similar. But the smell of the cigar I smelled at that time was a bit stronger and the Aroma fragrance seemed more intense. Furthermore, this cigar does not smell damp." "If you smell a wet cigar, it''s because they put a little cognac in the tip of the cigar before lighting it. That way, the unique flavor of the cognac will blend with the aroma of the cigar." The salesman signaled Kwon Taek Joo to wait a moment and then went inside. A moment later he returned with a glass of wine in his hand, which appeared to be cognac. He used a knife to cut off the burning end of the cigar and poured cognac on it, then lit it again and gave it to Kwon Taek Joo. "How was it this time?" "It''s more similar. But there''s still something different." The salesperson was confused by the disappointing response. He muttered to himself while stroking his wrinkled eyebrows like a habit. "Similar scent means it''s the same cigar, but it''s much darker and stronger than this... Then I can only think of one." "What is that?" Kwon Taek Joo quickly asked again. The salesman rubbed his chin and thought a bit more before opening his mouth. "Normally Cohiba products are made by brewing the main ingredient, Tobacco leaves, twice. But a few years ago there was a limited edition ''Cohiba Behike'' produced and sold to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the birth of Cohiba. "Cohiba cigars. It is said to be made by aging the highest quality Tobacco leaves three times. It is kept in the right humidity and temperature to produce the best flavor, then it is stored in a cigar box. cigar for 6 years after completion to enhance the flavor. Unfortunately, this cigar is only sold in Spain in a limited quantity of 4 thousand packs. Many cigar enthusiasts have tried to get their hands on it. This product. I am one of them. The characteristic of this limited edition product is that it has a stronger smell than regular Cohiba products. The characteristic Aroma scent is also richer. Because it is an edition product. limit so the price is $400. Of course that''s the price of a cigarette" 400 dollars a cigarette? Intense and rich fragrance. The reason for the damp smell is because the tip of the cigar is dipped in cognac before burning. The shoes cost four thousand dollars, and four hundred dollars per suction. It''s obvious that a rich environment turns people into monsters. "I wonder if you have that limited edition product?" "I wish I could see it with my own eyes once." The salesman smiled helplessly. Anyway, thanks to that, Kwon Taek Joo''s curiosity was resolved. He took out a few bills and held them out with the intention of giving a reward (tip). Doing the math, three $10 bills seem to be enough. "You don''t have to do that. You can''t even find the product you want." "Then I''ll take this. I must have bothered you, but thank you." Kwon Taek Joo picked up a $20 handmade cigar nearby and left the store. There are only 4 thousand packs of ''Cohiba Behike'' in the world. What a murderer with noble tastes. Chapter 7 - 1.7 New Mission: Face to Face Chapter 7: 1.7 New Mission: Face to FaceKwon Taek Joo entered the room. He ignored the bag that had been brought before and just took off his clothes and went to the bathroom. He walked in and stood under the shower and pulled the lever. Hot water slowly poured down on his head. Kwon Taek Joo stood still under the water for a moment and then leaned his upper body against the wall. He needed time to organize his thoughts. He agreed with the police explanation that the kidnapping upon arrival in Russia was the action of forces opposing the energy facility contract. There is no other doubt. But what he couldn''t understand were the crocodile leather shoes that appeared at the scene. Who exactly is that person, and what is his purpose in coming there? In the end, he received help from him, but it was difficult to guarantee that he was his ally. Did he have no intention of harming Kwon Taek Joo from the beginning, or was he just unable to do anything because the police arrived too quickly? Just thinking about him being there right behind Kwon Taek Joo was enough to make him suffocate. He could barely move, it felt as if there was a crocodile living nearby, and if he were startled just a little, it would tear him to pieces. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was thrown into a barbaric world without a single armor on his body. This was the first time he didn''t even dare to fight back. He tried with the will to survive but was defeated with unbelievable ease. What will happen if his brother is determined to harm Kwon Taek Joo? Pointed shoes, the smell of cigars, a calm voice and violence without any hesitation. His violence is not simply controlling the opponent, but it is more like the process of gradually engraving fear in the prey and destroying it little by little. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and shook his head. He forced himself to shake off that lingering afterimage. If it''s a bad memory, it''s best to forget it as soon as possible. Kwon Taek Joo was trying to finish showering quickly, but the bandage on his arm was really making him uncomfortable. He removed the wet bandage without thinking too long. His wrist ached, but not unbearably. The artificial skin covering the face was also decisively peeled off. Instead of the tired face that had fallen off, there was Kwon Taek Joo''s refreshed face. He quickly washed his face and hair and put on his robe. He walked out and opened his bag. The bag had been bumped here and there like Kwon Taek Joo himself, messy with mixed belongings. Above the pile of clothes were razors, game consoles, watches, tablets, cameras, etc. He lined them up and took out a small screwdriver from the hand tool box and began to disassemble them. Brand new items in the blink of an eye. He took out the necessary parts from each item and put them together. A small device that connects to a mobile phone is used for such completed work. It''s a high-tech device that periodically changes IP using the hotel''s communication network and can prevent eavesdropping or hacking. He plugged it into his laptop and booted it up. Kwon Taek Joo entered the password and waited a moment. Soon a simple screen appeared. Among the countless icons, he clicked on a commonly used SNS messaging application. Immediately after logging in, the National Intelligence Agency logo appeared and Kwon Taek Joo was quickly connected to headquarters. Chief Lim''s face appeared on the screen immediately after saying "You''re late". Kwon Taek Joo also complained. "If you''re going to hide my identity, shouldn''t you choose someone safer?" "You have to be valuable enough to be kidnapped to meet high-ranking people." "It seems like you knew this was going to happen, huh?" "Why is it like that? I just figured it could happen. Because you are an excellent agent, even if you are in danger, I believe you will survive." He can say anything. Kwon Taek Joo asked again with a dissatisfied expression. "What happened? Apparently you said Gazprom would pick me up." "Yes. That party contacted me saying they would send someone to the airport." "Did you really receive contact from Gazprom?" "What''s up?" His identity was almost revealed. They waited for a long time, then said he didn''t show up and immediately called the Itochu Group. I diverted the call and blocked it. I heard your flight didn''t arrive on time due to chaos on the plane? It seems there was a mistake with the Gazprom staff who came to the airport to pick him up. I heard that an Asian person who entered Russia before you impersonated Hiro Sakamoto. Only later did I find out he was not Hiro Sakamoto. Meanwhile, he was kidnapped by a fake employee. That''s right, everything started to get messy on the plane because a stupid Russian guy was drunk and behaved rudely. Kwon Taek Joo leaves the airport late and meets Vasily, a fake Gazprom employee. "But it''s much later than expected, isn''t it?" "There was a small commotion in the plane." "Are there any drunk people causing trouble again?" "..That, how do you know?" This is remembering the story with the name Vasily. How do you know what? Because it''s the same group, so what? As expected, he killed Vasily so easily. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his fists in rising anger and then frowned, because his wrist suddenly throbbed. He looked down at his right arm. The place where the killer grabbed it was still bruised with a hand clearly printed on it. The shame he had suppressed the moment he encountered him surfaced again. No matter what, Kwon Taek Joo must reveal this guy''s identity, otherwise he will have to live with that terrible feeling of surrender forever for the rest of his life. Kwon Taek Joo confides in Chief Lim about the murderer. His plan was to borrow the information capabilities of headquarters. But Chief Lim reacted with disappointment. "Let''s see. If you haven''t seen his face, there''s no way to confirm who he is. According to his research, 4 thousand packs of cigars were sold, meaning there could be up to 4 thousand buyers. Trying to keep track of everything would take a lot of time. Furthermore, the shoes he wore were not limited edition products." Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth but then closed it again. It''s not wrong either. "It''s just the first day but it''s already a lot of hard work, right?" Ignoring Chief Lim''s comfort. Kwon Taek Joo just held his head in frustration. Chief Lim observed for a moment then leaned forward. "No matter how much you like working alone, if you''re such a mess from the beginning, how can I feel secure in this far away place? I will be very worried about you." "Why do you suddenly say such itchy words?" He continued, "I''m afraid something will go wrong." "I found someone to help you." "You didn''t say that before." Kwon Taek Joo frowned. This mission is only for him to perform. He did not announce that he would have a partner until just before departure. But only now, after coming this far, did he secretly reveal that truth. This sly person is no different from a snake. Kwon Taek Joo stared at the screen. Chief Lim didn''t mind and continued talking. "That friend not only understands the geography of that place but also the movement of power and money. It will help a lot. Looking at the situation, I think that party will contact you in advance the day after tomorrow. When I have time I will send a photo of that friend so please check carefully." He brazenly blurted out what he wanted to say and then as if remembering something, he went "Ah." raised a voice. "Since you will meet directly with the people involved in the contract tomorrow, let''s learn more about the LNG equipment project." The communication was cut off before Kwon Taek Joo could speak. A file arrived from Chief Lim. He opened it discontentedly. Soon after, details of the contract signed between Russia and Japan and documents related to the construction of the LNG facility appeared in the form of a 527 page PDF file. Kwon Taek Joo stared intently at the pile of documents filled with tiny words and then suddenly turned his head. The soft bed without a single wrinkle was seducing him. But he had no other choice. Kwon Taek Joo let out a sigh that made his shoulders droop and stood up. He opened the minibar and took out beer. drank half the can, then returned to the table. He took a deep breath and sat down. Finally, my academic luck is booming after a long time. ______ Kwon Taek Joo sat in the main restaurant with an extremely depressed expression. Key Russian and Japanese figures are expected to enjoy lunch there. Fortunately, there was no suspicion from Japanese officials about him, because there was no need to focus attention on a lower-level employee. All vou have to do is finish today''s lunch safely and attend the celebration party that will be held in a few days. The moment he left the gathering of Russian political and business tycoons, his role as Hiro Sakamoto ended. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo looked at the clock. The scheduled lunch time was noon, but the minute hand had passed the number ''12'' and was heading towards the number ''6. Those who arrived on time were forced to stay for about 30 minutes, because the Gazprom representative did not arrive. The person in charge of Gazprom called the company several times to confirm. The sight of him struggling to stand still looked extremely pitiful. "... Mr. Sakamoto?" Kwon Taek Joo was so distracted by that distracting scene that he even missed a question from a Russian official. "Yes? Ah, sorry. What did you just say?" "I heard you had some bad luck on the day you entered the country. Are you okay?" "Ah yes. The Russian police arrived just in time so I was safe. He even kindly took me to my place." "I don''t know how to apologize for this... I''m sorry for putting you through something like that." "No, why do you have to apologize? I should have paid more attention, I really have no face." Kwon Taek Joo replied politely but his eyes did not show any shame at all. He said it was okay but the other person kept apologizing. After that, even the Japanese delegation began to bow their heads in unison. They apologized for making him scared, saying it was their fault so he didn''t need to worry. They apologized, he apologized, everyone was in chaos. Then Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt uncomfortable. He stood up, drawing the attention of both delegations to him. Kwon Taek Joo was about to try to sneak out so he smiled wryly and asked for sympathy. "Please excuse me for a moment." He even pretended to wash his hands and then went out. A deep sigh rang out as soon as he closed the door. Kwon Taek Joo was loosening the tie that was tightening his neck when he suddenly stopped. Gazprom''s CEO was still standing in the aisle making a phone call. He was talking to the person on the other end of the phone in a somewhat angry tone, but in the quietest tone possible. "Where is the chairman? Has he departed? Is he not coming?" The patience until now suddenly melted into soap bubbles. Not long after, the employee broke out in his suppressed anger. "Representative? What are you talking about? Is the representative coming??" That was the moment where all his patience thus far came to naught. Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue and leisurely went to the bathroom. To find the bathroom, he had to go down a separate hallway. He opened a door that reached the 5 meter ceiling and entered. Kwon Taek Joo checked inside the room as usual and let out a long breath when there were no suspicious signs. He came to stand in front of the sink. Kwon Taek Joo wiped his hands and looked back at his activities. The other day he fell asleep looking at the PDF file that Chief Lim sent. That night wasn''t too bad except for a rather vague dream. I don''t know if it was because he was so tired that he fainted for a while. Yesterday morning he finished reading the remaining PDF files and this afternoon went to the airport to welcome the Japanese delegation. Even after examining each situation, it doesn''t seem like there were any major mistakes. Studying was indeed just cramming, but thanks to the contract documents he had read in the past two days, Kwon Taek Joo was able to understand the conversation without any difficulty. At the same time, a sound rang out from outside the door. Someone''s voice. If he wasn''t talking to himself, it sounded like he was talking on the phone. Is that the person in charge of Gazprom''s affairs just now? The door opened, and that voice reached Kwon Taek Joo more clearly. His body stiffened for a moment. "...No. I''m here but it will probably be boring." It seems like you''ve heard it somewhere before. Where? That memory is not too old. Although he didn''t hear it often enough to be familiar with it, that moment was so powerful that it was imprinted in his mind. While Kwon Taek Joo was trying to recall the memories that seemed to have disappeared, the voice from before rang out again. Exactly right behind him. "Let''s be clear. If it''s support, then what happened last time is enough." It''s him. Kwon Taek Joo can be sure without looking back. This was the killer he met in that makeshift building two days ago. As soon as he realized that fact, all his senses become sharper. The first thing to wake up is the sense of smell. Kwon Taek Joo could feel the strong scent of wet leaves gently burning. An unmistakable scent of delicate cognac and rich Aroma. Cohiba Behike. The excitement that couldn''t be ignored seemed to weigh heavily on his shoulders, even though the other person hadn''t smoked a single cigar. His voice still echoed in the background. He stopped right at the door and continued the call. Then, Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt a gaze. He still didn''t look back or look in the mirror, but that was certain. He is looking at Kwon Taek Joo. A chill ran down his spine. sea??h th§× n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "That''s enough... I know." Maybe it was just an illusion, but his tone sounded a bit longer. The call ended. The eyes following him became much clearer. Now only he and Kwon Taek Joo were left in the closed bathroom. He constantly washed his hands and watched his movements. He always looked down at his hands without appearing to recognize who he was. The atmosphere quickly became heavy. Time passed so slowly. How long has it been? The man''s footsteps, which had stopped, echoed again. He walked to the sink right next to Kwon Taek Joo. Soon the water poured out with a clicking sound. He began to gently rub his hands. With just that small movement, Cohiba''s scent became stronger, along with memories of the first day he smelled that scent rushing back. Kwon Taek Joo tried to act as calmly as possible. He turned off the water as if he didn''t know him and then used a prepared towel to dry his hands. I wonder why that murderous bastard appeared at this moment right here. If it''s random then what a damn coincidence. Just considering the economic situation, this is not a place he cannot go to. The only problem is that he is locked in a closed space with him. Must avoid. The thought that he shouldn''t be in the same space as him took over his entire body. Kwon Taek Joo felt the pressure on his brain increase in tension. He threw the wet towel into the trash and tried to escape. At that moment, a sudden word was thrown out that made him choke. "You didn''t even say hello? It seems like we know each other." "So Japanese people aren''t that polite?", he continued. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t look back. He couldn''t even open the door handle he was holding. Don''t know what will happen if you act hastily. Even if something bad happened here right now, even if he killed Kwon Taek Joo by smashing his body, no one would know. And if someone finds out, it will be too late. He continued sarcastically, hesitating, "That''s all a Samurai''s manners are, right?" The tone was calm but didn''t sound entirely comfortable. He didn''t say anything more after that. Kwon Taek Joo put all his senses behind him and walked out without saying a word. As soon as the door closed and he got rid of him, Kwon Taek Joo breathed a sigh of relief. His heart was pounding. Maybe he hadn''t realized it but it seemed like it had been like that a while ago. He didn''t remember the last time he was this stressed. Chapter 8 - 1.8 New Mission: Zhenya Chapter 8: 1.8 New Mission: ZhenyaYou have to stay far away first. Just like that, Kwon Taek Joo was about to follow his instincts when a vibration rang out from inside his jacket. Hiro Sakamoto''s phone was in his outer pocket, so the current vibration must have come from the phone used to contact headquarters. Manager Lim said he would send a photo of his partner participating in this campaign with him. Kwon Taek Joo reached into his jacket and took out his phone. Sure enough, a photo was sent from Chief Lim. He immediately checked the photo. It takes about 2 or 3 seconds for the display device to load the image on the screen. 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds. Kwon Taek Joo clicked on the ''Download completed.'' The awaited photo quickly filled the screen. "Hmm? It''s me." He almost dropped the phone to the ground, because someone''s voice suddenly interrupted. Kwon Taek Joo just silently rolled his eyes and looked at the floor. A huge shadow came from behind and swallowed him. Just by looking at it, you can tell who it belongs to without looking back, because that strong woody smell seems to paralyze the olfactory cells. Gazprom representatives did not appear in the end. The group of people waited together to eat, drink and chat for a while and then parted ways. The Japanese delegation, tired after the long flight, also dispersed to their rooms. Thanks to that, Kwon Taek Joo was able to complete the work earlier than expected. The real problem is now beginning. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even enter the room and just lingered in front of the door the whole time. It took him a moment before he took a deep breath and opened the door. His eyes went straight to the table placed next to the window. The murderous bastard was sitting on the armrest of a chair and looking out the window. It seemed like it would be more comfortable with his long legs. A powerful source of energy filled with pressure flowed from his broad shoulders and strong back. Perhaps realizing that eyes were looking towards him, he quietly turned his head. The light dyed the strands of hair mixed between gold and white brilliantly. Eyebrows are long, gentle but still show sensitivity and sophistication. The long eyelashes that cover the eyes carry a hidden fierceness, and the pupils as transparent as blue ocean water carry a calm coolness, creating a unique work of art. The high and straight bridge of the nose brings a natural beauty that directs the eye to the lips. His face was smiling brightly, but the tension still did not subside. Human eyes cannot lie, so those smiling lips have a fake presence. Although her overall face is extremely beautiful, Kwon Taek Joo cannot feel any sympathy. When he made eye contact with him, the air particles around him seemed to freeze. The eyes seemed to be quietly watching the writhing prey, unlike the eyes of a human. He warmly turned towards Kwon Taek Joo who was standing in the doorway. "Just come in, don''t be shy." The host and guest have been completely reversed. He nodded and took off his jacket, then suddenly he turned his head away, because the strong scent of cigars was spreading all over him. It wasn''t too strong but he felt very uncomfortable. He didn''t know if it was due to the afterimage of the first time they met or not. As if he didn''t know the aversion on Kwon Taek Joo''s face, he reached out and offered to shake his hand. "I''m Zhenya." Kwon Taek Joo stared at Zhenya''s hand held out in front of him. Is this what stabbed a human in the eyeball? That thought suddenly flashed through when suddenly that hand reached out. Kwon Taek Joo was startled unconsciously without knowing that his upper body was also shaking. The long white fingertips stopped in front of Kwon Taek Joo''s left chest. His lungs suddenly tightened, making it impossible for him to breathe normally. The fingers that were still standing there soon began to swing as if teasing Kwon Taek Joo. The overwhelming tension seemed to be relieved. Dissatisfaction was evident on his face. Zhenya chuckled and gently tapped his hand on his side. "You don''t look very happy, do you?" "Why not? But if you let me hit you a few times, maybe I''ll feel happier." Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth, strength concentrated in his lower jaw. Perhaps just seeing it as a joke, Zhenya just laughed and ignored it. "So what''s your name?" "You know that." "It''s really difficult to pronounce. Is there an easier name?" "If it''s too difficult, don''t call." Zhenya stared at him at the blunt answer. His lips still drew a long curve and his eyes shined strangely. Just like that, silence prevailed. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt uncomfortable being observed without any measures to deal with it. A moment later Zhenya spoke up, "I heard you went to the police station?" He broke the long silence. Zhenya even laughed shamelessly, as if he had forgotten everything that had happened before. Kwon Taek Joo stared at him without answering. No, that''s nothing more than vigilance. Intuition told him that Kwon Taek Joo himself must not reveal the slightest gap to him. Zhenya didn''t pay attention and left the table and went to the mini bar. He looked through the small bottles of liquor displayed there and took out some whiskey. He quenched his thirst that way and shrugged. "There''s no need to be so cautious. I was just helping a colleague who was in danger." He talks about unusual things as if they were normal. Kwon Taek Joo continues to closely monitor Zhenya. "Since when have you been following me?" Sear?h the n??el Fire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "And since when? From the beginning." Was he at the airport from the beginning? Does that mean he timed the right time to contact Kwon Taek Joo and then chased after him when he was kidnapped and saved him? So why didn''t he reveal his identity at that time? Zhenya suddenly grinned. It seems that Kwon Taek Joo''s doubts have been seen through. "Headquarters told me to obediently wait until today. If you hadn''t been arrested in such an embarrassing way that day,I wouldn''t have had any reason to come forward." Zhenya chuckled with whiskey-soaked lips. The shame that Kwon Taek Joo had tried to suppress for so long now surfaced again. The person he thought had extraordinary, inhuman strength turned out to be his colleague. Kwon Taek Joo''s pride was hurt. "First impressions are really unforgettable. You even showed me what it''s like to poke someone on the eye." Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue in response. There''s no reason to feel inferior just because he''s your partner. He and Kwon Taek Joo are on the same team. Just that one fact blew away his fear for the first time in his life. Zhenya curled his lips in mockery at the unexpected criticism. "Are you a pacifist?" "I like neat things." "Neat and efficient, like shooting? Or bombing? Then it''s no fun" He shook his head with a bored expression and then used his fingers to gently tap his temple. "Think about it. Who doesn''t want to be special, right? Everyone wants the moment of their last breath to be as sacred as possible. But how useless and insignificant it would be if their deaths were combined "killed by shooting" in the corner of an article? If both eyes were pierced, they could grab another headline. Wouldn''t it be better?" That''s just an excuse. The excuse of a psychopath trying to justify his nefarious behavior. Kwon Taek Joo sarcastically replied. "If one day I fall into your hands, please kill me senselessly." "Hmm. It''s a bit difficult but I''ll think about it." Zhenya paused for a moment as if thinking about something then he continued "Don''t worry too much." "Because if you didn''t hurt me, it wouldn''t have happened. Look, I''m just defending myself." "Are you a pacifist?" Kwon Taek Joo responded to the sarcastic comments Zhenya said a while ago. He laughed loudly and threw the whiskey bottle he was drinking towards him. The small bottle was more than half empty. Without hesitation, Kwon Taek Joo put his mouth into the bottle and drank all the remaining wine. His tongue tingled as if his esophagus was on fire. At that moment, Kwon Taek Joo''s phone rang from inside the jacket he had taken off. He put down the empty bottle and took out his phone. This time too, a photo was sent from headquarters. After a moment of waiting, a mysterious looking Russian filled the screen. Is this the ''Psych Bogdanov they told you to be careful of? Kwon Taek Joo vaguely speculated, but before he realized it, Zhenya approached and snatched his phone. "I was told to be careful with that guy. Do you know him?" Zhenya squinted, examined the photo, then nodded. "Of course. I know. Very well." "What kind of person is he?" "It''s better not to touch him. I''ve never seen anything good come from messing with him." "Is Morgan''s death related to this guy?" "If it''s Morgan, do you mean the former American? Let''s see. maybe it''s that crazy guy''s trick, maybe it''s not. Don''t worry about it. You''re not here for revenge. Just leave him alone. Play his game, let''s do ours." "If you call him crazy with your own mouth, it seems that this guy is an unpredictable great man." Kwon Taek Joo shook his head. Zhenya just chuckled. Even if he was Psych Bogdanov, he would believe it immediately. He couldn''t even imagine that someone like him would call that guy crazy without any hesitation. In any case, if getting involved in this matter won''t help, then it''s best not to collide. No need to worry about someone you haven''t even met yet. Currently, Kwon Taek Joo must focus on the assigned task. "I heard you know the political structure and money flow here well, right?" "Of course. If you want, I can list it for you anytime." His confident appearance did not seem to be showing off in vain. It seemed like accepting a partner he didn''t want, and making the most of it, was a good idea. The problems that have occurred since day one seem to be being resolved smoothly. Kwon Taek Joo felt relieved after a long time and then gave instructions. "First, I hope you will select people who are knowledgeable about underground weapons transactions, regardless of whether they are capital providers, actual developers, or businessmen involved in the sale. If you want to meet ''Anastasia'' You must attack first." At the mention of ''Anastasia'', Zhenya''s eyebrows raised slightly. It was not an obvious change that Kwon Taek Joo could notice immediately. But in just that moment, he gently nodded and seemed to understand, then immediately took his coat and stood up. "Then let''s finish preparing tomorrow and continue talking." Kwon Taek Joo stood up and followed Zhenya. Why were you so happy when you heard he was leaving? Kwon Taek Joo followed closely behind as if intending to chase away not only Zhenya but also his unique scent. He reached out and opened the door himself. Zhenya obediently went out. Instead of saying go away, Kwon Taek Joo said "See you tomorrow". Then he closed the door but it did not close. He looked down curiously, one shoe toe protruding from the crack in the door. Kwon Taek Joo looked up at Zhenya with a dissatisfied expression. He tilted his head and leaned down a bit, their eyes met. "Let''s slowly take off that mask." The voice mixed with dark laughter. Kwon Taek Joo frowned and glared at Zhenya. He grinned again, stood up straight and walked to the other side of the hallway. Kwon Taek Joo looked until the elevator door closed and then he closed the door. The elevator door quickly opened. A man was standing inside making eye contact with Zhenya. He stood in front of him with his back turned. While the elevator quickly went down to the first floor, the man behind him suddenly spoke. "What should I do?" Zhenya looked at the decreasing number of floors on the display board and thought of something. The mouth on his usually calm face suddenly curled up. He muttered with a languid voice. "Blow it all away. Don''t leave any caves for it to hide in." Morning. The hotel room doorbell rang. Kwon Taek Joo checked the mask on his face and looked at the clock. It''s only 8 a.m., there''s still a while until the scheduled cleaning time. There is no official schedule for the visiting delegation today. Or Zhenya? If so, it seems he is more diligent than he looks. He smoothed the artificial skin on his face and walked out the door. Outside suddenly spoke before he could ask who it was. "Room service." Kwon Taek Joo opened the door skeptically but it seemed he didn''t hear wrong. A specialized cart is standing in the hallway in front of the room. A waiter wearing a hotel uniform greeted him politely. Kwon Taek Joo poked his head out and looked out into the hallway. It was still early so the surroundings were very quiet. The waiter asked. "Can I come in?" when he stood right in front of the door. "Looks like you found the wrong room." "That''s right, room number 911, sir." "But I didn''t order room service." "Ah, someone else requested it." "Someone else? Could it be that guy?" "It''s a representative of Gazprom." "Ah", Kwon Taek Joo laughed as if what he just thought was silly. Even though he is a colleague, he is no different from a murderer. What to expect from a name like that? If it was sent by a Gazprom representative, would this be an apology for what happened yesterday? Not only did he not attend the luncheon he arranged, his representative did not even come. If Kwon Taek Joo refuses, they will probably contact each other again. There''s no need to attract unnecessary attention with useless mistakes. He nodded into the living room. The waiter bowed slightly and gently pushed the cart in. Food is brought in and placed on the table next to the window. The waiter left after placing the silverware neatly and asked to call him if he needed anything else. Kwon Taek Joo also doesn''t understand why this strategy is so luxurious. All dishes are covered with a layer of foil. But the faint scent told him that it was Russian borscht, toast, poached eggs, fruit and coffee. Kwon Taek Joo slowly glanced across the table, there was a card stuck on the note shelf. There must have been a greeting written on it. He indifferently looked down at the content on the card. There is only one word written there. Four clearly engraved letters caught his eye. B.o.o.m. Damned. Chapter 9 - 1.9 New Mission: Why don’t you remove it? Chapter 9: 1.9 New Mission: Why don¡¯t you remove it?Kwon Taek Joo immediately threw the card and ran towards the door. He didn''t have time to judge the situation but could only grit his teeth and use all his strength to jump up. The moment his fingertips touched the doorknob, the air stopped for a moment with a loud bang. Kwon Taek Joo''s body was pushed into the next wall. Right after that, the floor where he was standing suddenly collapsed. The front window of the room was broken by the force of the explosion, and the furniture in the room was destroyed. The ceiling began to shake and alarm bells began to ring loudly throughout the hotel People staying in the hotel stopped all activities immediately. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes to see what happened. "Aahhh!" "Ahh!" Almost everyone thought of ''terrorism'' at the same time and then without anyone telling anyone, they lost their minds and ran away. The voices of employees trying to calm customers were completely drowned out by screams coming from everywhere. Big and small collisions occurred as everyone ran toward the narrow emergency exit. They don''t hesitate to push or knock someone down to get out first. A person rushing down the stairs falls, and those following him jump over or step on him. If there is such an extreme fear that paralyzes reason, a hell on earth, this is it. The situation calmed down after firefighters were dispatched. Once the fire extinguishing work was completed, a fully equipped explosives removal team was brought in. The reporters who rushed over were reporting on the atmosphere of the scene in high-pitched voices. The number of injured people is very large compared to the scale of the explosion. Most injuries occur during evacuation rather than direct trauma. Ambulances run continuously carrying patients without stopping. Amid the chaos, a man was confronting medical staff. The most seriously injured man was none other than Kwon Taek Joo. "Right now you''re so shocked that you can''t feel any pain. You''ll regret it later when you wake up. Because you have a head injury, it''s best for you to go to the hospital right away for a CT scan. Quickly lie down." The rescue worker looked down at the stretcher and raised his voice. No matter how many times he denied that he was okay, it was of no use, Kwon Taek Joo sighed tiredly. "Okay, I can take care of myself. For now, please take care of the other patients." "I also want to forgive a stubborn person like you, but because of principles, I can''t. Will you be responsible if something goes wrong and my salary is cut?" "Because of the bleeding, it looks like it, but the wound is not that serious." "Let the doctors evaluate that." Crazy. Kwon Taek Joo saying that he is fine is not an empty word. His forehead was slightly lacerated and bleeding. Just disinfect the area and bandage it. Stitches may be needed to stop the bleeding, but at most it will only take a few needles. so it won''t be a problem if treatment is delayed a bit. But the medical staff in front of him remained determined. After all, who is stubborn? Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head with an annoyed expression. His left chin appeared unnatural as the artificial skin around it had peeled off due to the force of the explosion. The medical staff did not ignore that scene. "Is that area injured too? Let''s see." He waved away the approaching medical staff''s hand. The emergency worker''s eyes widened at the violent reaction. He wasn''t angry about being hit on the back of his hand, but his expression only became a level more serious. It now seems certain that Kwon Taek Joo''s mental state was affected by the shock after the accident. He nodded as if he understood everything and gently rubbed Kwon Taek Joo''s back before winking and calling his colleague. A member of the delegation who had been watching the two people''s long argument ran to them. Both sides held Kwon Taek Joo''s hand and urged him to lie down on the stretcher. Curses poured out. It''s a pity to receive a bomb as a gift early in the morning and not feel uncomfortable. If he''s dragged away like this, people will find out that Kwon Taek Joo is not Hiro Sakamoto. There must have been police stationed at the hospital and if disguised equipment was discovered in such a place, just imagining it would be troublesome. This is absolutely impossible. "I''m really okay. Look. I''m fine." Kwon Taek Joo showed off his energetic moves but the medical staff didn''t even pretend to listen. They just laughed and said "Okay, let''s walk like that in front of the doctor." Kwon Taek Joo just did that. Go crazy. There were so many eyes looking at him that he couldn''t knock them out. Kwon Taek Joo was helplessly dragged away and suddenly stared at the onlookers. He seemed to see a familiar face among the noisy crowd. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes turned towards him, and the person who was following him quickly disappeared. Truly a suspicious gesture. Kwon Taek Joo changed his mind and obediently followed the medical staff''s requests. As he walked towards the ambulance himself, the eyes that were fixed on him seemed clearer. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly turned back that way, once again the man disappeared behind the crowd. His heart pounded when he saw that face. It''s him. Psych Bogdanov, the man was known as a madman in this country and he had been repeatedly warned not to encounter him as much as possible. Kwon Taek Joo was surprised for a moment, then a question began to form in his mind. Why is he here? After all, why? Or did he just happen to be passing by this area at this time? No, that''s too absurd. The hypothesis that the culprit always appears at the crime scene is even more convincing. It wouldn''t be surprising if he did that. I just wonder why this is so. Has your identity been revealed? Kwon Taek Joo continued to think about this and that and then came to the conclusion that he had to leave this place. All of his belongings, including the Colt, were blown away by the explosion. Even if he collided with Psych, now was not the time. No matter how crazy he was, he wouldn''t be able to do anything in broad daylight, so it was best for him to quietly go to the hospital and escape at the appropriate time. Kwon Taek Joo calculated everything and then climbed into the ambulance. Psych Bogdanov suddenly approached Kwon Taek Joo. The flexible man jostling among the crowd suddenly wore a white coat, looking exactly like a medical staff''s uniform. He put a white mask on his nose and walked to the driver''s seat of the ambulance without hesitation. If things continue as they are now, it''s clear that Kwon Taek Joo will have to sit in the same car as him. Danger. Instincts kept alarming each time in his head. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly pushed the medical staff and jumped out of the car. "This!" The medical staff shouted loudly. Psych Bogdanov got out of the driver''s seat onto the road when he heard a commotion. Kwon Taek Joo fixed his eves on him and then slowly backed away. He also strode towards him with a fierce expression. The two eyes above the mask glowed brightly. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his molars and ran towards the crowd. He violently walked through the crowd of people there, causing angry screams to ring out everywhere. That is also Kwon Taek Joo''s strategy. In the current situation, receiving a lot of looks would be safer. Perhaps because he was aware of the attention of the people around him, Psych Bogdanov could no longer quickly chase after him. He hesitated for a moment then disappeared in another direction. Kwon Taek Joo quickly left the area around the hotel and entered the main street. That crazy guy must have mastered the entire geography of the area so he had to go as far away as possible. He moved forward for a while when suddenly a shrill engine sound rang out from behind. When he turned around, a Jeep was quickly approaching. The front glass was tinted so thickly that it was impossible to see inside, but what was clear was that a man in a white coat, apparently Psych Bogdanov, was sitting in the passenger seat. Kwon Taek Joo muttered a curse then immediately turned around and walked into a narrow alley that cars could not enter. The Jeep that was driving straight at him stopped at the beginning of the alley. The backseat door opened, and a man dressed in black from head to toe stepped out. After Bogdanov''s nod, the man threw up his shirt and started chasing Kwon Taek Joo. Meanwhile, the Jeep disappeared again along the main road. Their plan was to chase him from behind and block him from the front. Kwon Taek Joo ran away frantically and kept thinking. Why would Psych Bogdanov target you? Unless his identity is discovered, his target will be Hiro Sakamoto. Is that guy also dissatisfied with the Russia-Japan agreement? No matter how hard he tried to speculate, it was still difficult to understand. If they wanted to exert influence by holding the contracting party hostage, it would have been better to kidnap another member of the delegation with higher value than Hiro Sakamoto. On the first day of entry, the only contract officer who deserved to be kidnapped was Hiro Sakamoto, but now the situation is different. So in the end the person he wanted to capture was not Hiro Sakamoto but Kwon Taek Joo? After all, why? Suspicions continued to spread but no conclusion could be reached. Kwon Taek Joo raised his head and looked around. He could see a spiral staircase leading out of the building ahead. To avoid getting yourself into a trap, you might want to climb the stairs to the rooftop or climb the railing to the next building. He visualized the route in his head and decided. But his pursuers did not let him go easily. A bullet came from behind, grazed Kwon Taek Joo and scratched the wall outside the building. As if reading his plan, a series of shots were fired around the stairs. He tried to climb up to the ventilation hole of the building next door, but they shot there too. "..Damned!" Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth in frustration and ran away. The man also persistently chased after. Even if he ran until his lungs pounded so hard that it hurt, there was no escape in sight. How on earth can this country be so quiet when gunshots ring out right on the side of a major road in broad daylight? Kwon Taek Joo criticized the laziness of the Russian police and then changed direction. The road is just wide enough for one person to pass, connecting with the road next to the river. He couldn''t have predicted the current chase, but it was good to know the road conditions. A wide stretch of highway appeared in his vision, shaking from running. There were quite a few cars passing by there. Just like this a little more, just a little more. Kwon Taek Joo took larger strides and increased his speed. Since arriving in Russia, it seems like he''s just been running around without any plans. It''s time for Kwon Taek Joo to leave the narrow alley and enter the main road. A car suddenly stopped and blocked his path. It was Psych Bogdanov''s Jeep that he had seen a while ago. Behind him were his juniors who were still closing the gap. Kwon Taek Joo used force to push the driver''s door open. The driver was trying to get out and was hit. He took advantage of that moment and flexibly jumped over the bonnet. At that moment the passenger door opened. Kwon Taek Joo ran straight into it so he couldn''t keep his balance and tripped. He rolled to avoid the next lane but the situation only got worse. A motorbike is speeding down the lane. When the driver saw Kwon Taek Joo suddenly appearing in the middle of the road, he quickly braked. But the distance between them was too short to stop. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have the strength to stand up. He reflexively bent down. A long ray of light appeared when the front wheel of the motorcycle trying to stop suddenly rubbed against the road surface. Psych Bogdanov''s group of people, who had been chasing Kwon Taek Joo until now, also closed their eyes tightly, as if they also felt the worst situation. A loud noise sounded as if it wanted to tear apart the space Kettttt, the sound of friction rang out continuously. For a moment, the surrounding noise disappeared, but the expected shock did not occur. "..?" Kwon Taek Joo slowly opened his eyes. The rear wheel of the motorcycle that had just stopped was spinning right in front of his nose. The rear of the car that hit the front of the Jeep was suddenly lifted up after the impact. That moment of vacuum was strangely long. Kwon Taek Joo quickly moved aside. It was a move based purely on survival instinct. The rear of the motorbike had just been lifted for a moment and then fell with a loud bang. If he had moved even a little bit late, Kwon Taek Joo''s head would have been crushed by the rear wheel. After dying and coming back to life, Kwon Taek Joo felt relieved. His eyelids blinked restlessly. His sweaty body suddenly felt numb. How many times has your life been threatened since this morning? Someone grabbed Kwon Taek Joo while he was lying down and lifted him up. He is a subordinate of Psych Bogdanov. Crazy Bogdanov even grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s other arm. He looked around and muttered. "Stop making noise, obediently get in the car." A fist suddenly hit Kwon Taek Joo in the stomach. His stomach rolled at the same time as his strength decreased without any resistance. The group recklessly placed the helpless Kwon Taek Joo in the back seat. Psych Bogdanov sat next to him. All the Jeep''s doors closed one after another and the vehicle rolled down the street as if nothing had happened. Still no sirens, let alone the police. Truly a kidnapper''s paradise. Even when Kwon Taek Joo was stunned, he still laughed unreasonably. What will happen now? Would he die like Morgan, having all 10 fingers cut off and drowned? It was an ending that Kwon Taek Joo had never thought of before. Zhenya , where is that damn bastard in this moment of despair? That''s when Kwon Taek Joo suddenly remembered something he had forgotten for a long time. The sound of rotating propellers could be heard from afar. "It''s him!" The man sitting in the passenger seat shouted. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes and looked out the window. A helicopter was flying in the sky opposite the Jeep. A man is sitting and stretching his long legs out of a helicopter. The figure was still vague, but it was definitely Zhenya. The han sitting in the passenger seat immediately opened the window and started shooting. Meanwhile, Psych Bogdanov reached under the back seat. The object he quickly took out hit Kwon Taek Joo''s heel. It''s a Bazooka. S§×arch* The n??el Fire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Open door." The rear seat window lowered on his command. He put his entire upper body out the window and aimed straight at the helicopter. If hit directly, it will explode. Kwon Taek Joo flew at Bogdanov but could not stop him, because the man sitting in the passenger seat pressed a gun to his temple. Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to raise his hands and step back. Right after that, the Bazooka was fired with a loud bang. That impact caused the moving car to sway from side to side. The helicopter quickly increased altitude to avoid incoming artillery shells. Bullets grazed the helicopter''s tail, ripped through the air and crashed into a building. One side of the building''s wall was destroyed as if hit by a mace. As if waiting. The helicopter also began its fierce attack. Zhenya used the machine gun he had been wearing since then and fired mercilessly. Together with Psych Bogdanov, Kwon Taek Joo bowed deeply. The driver helplessly held the steering wheel while the car''s body was now no different from a honeycomb. The driver tilted his body and the steering wheel also tilted. The car''s body suddenly tilted to one side. The man sitting in the passenger seat with a gunshot wound groaned and quickly grabbed the steering wheel, but the car crashed into the railing and fell into the river. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have time to scream. His vision suddenly reversed. The sound of air escaping can be heard from all directions. Cold water rushed into his nose and ears at the same time. During the gunfight, river water poured in through the torn windows. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly lost his breath but he quickly regained his composure and waited for the surroundings to quiet down. A moment later his breathing stabilized. Psych Bogdanov also lost consciousness. Kwon Taek Joo glanced at him then slowly swam out through the open window because that was the only suitable way out. At that moment. Another shot was fired from underwater. Kwon Taek Joo backed away and hid inside the car body. He couldn''t be sure because his eardrums were sealed, but it looked like the helicopter had landed right on the water. The water surface rippled violently due to the wind from the propeller. At the same time, his breathing began to become unstable again. Not only that, bullets continued to rain down. The bodies of the driver and the man sitting in the passenger seat who had stopped breathing were penetrated and shook helplessly. Kwon Taek Joo''s vision faded as blood spread out like ink on the water. Anyway, he couldn''t help at all. Doesn''t Zhenya know that Kwon Taek Joo himself is still in the car? His gun was being fired with a spirit that did not leave any living creature alive. This crazy guy knows no bounds. Kwon Taek Joo was dissatisfied and narrowly avoided the incoming bullets. While waiting for the gunfire to stop, he gradually lost his breath. His lungs, which were not supplied with oxygen, were pounding as if they were about to explode. If he doesn''t rise to the surface immediately, Kwon Taek Joo will suffocate before being shot to death. At that moment, the intense gunfire stopped. The shadows on the water stopped as if just to check the situation and it seemed like the attack was not over yet. Kwon Taek Joo kicked his feet and swam out the window. He was only about 3 or 4 meters from the water. He had to move forward before Zegna opened fire again. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and crossed the water. Suddenly his body was bouncing up and was suddenly pulled down. From below, Psych Bogdanov was holding his ankle. The crazy man''s face looked intently at Kwon Taek Joo and then he frowned. He certainly couldn''t avoid the bullet, red blood oozed from his left arm. Kwon Taek Joo mercilessly kicked him in the face. The hand that was used to stop the continuous kicking began to separate. But that''s not the end. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s collar again before desperately letting go, as if he didn''t want to die alone. Kwon Taek Joo swung his fist at Psych Bogdano. While he was hesitant to dodge, he immediately wrapped himself around his neck and pulled him back. His whole body struggled as he tried to squeeze his neck. The bullet wound had lost a lot of blood, making it impossible for him to use much strength because even breathing was difficult at this time. Kwon Taek Joo himself is not in a very comfortable situation. Psych Bogdanov tried to resist scratching his arm and twisting his body in protest, then began to convulse and stretch his arms and legs down. Kwon Taek Joo waited a few more seconds before releasing him. The giant body that had stopped moving slowly fell down. He watched the pale face gradually sink and then kicked the water back up. As soon as Kwon Taek Joo emerged from the water, his entire body seemed to swell. The breath he had been holding in for a while suddenly came out. His lungs constantly inhaled cold air, causing his chest and airways to become painful. His eyes opened wide. It took a while for Kwon Taek Joo to realize the terrible cold. The mouths that were opening to breathe began to crackle together. He had to get out of the water immediately, but his limbs were weak from the recent struggle. All he could do now was relax his entire body and float up. Suddenly, someone suddenly grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s neck and pulled him out. "Crack." He vomited a lot of water that had accumulated in his lungs. He coughed for so long that his throat was sore and his mind was dizzy. The stomach that was beaten by Bogdanov was also painful. Kwon Taek Joo sat down holding his stomach with his upper body leaning forward. His eyelids twitched. Then a pair of long straight legs appeared in front of him. Kwon Taek Joo slowly looked up, from the pointed toes of his shoes to his grinning face. That''s Zhenya. "So you''re still alive?" "Thanks to you, I almost died." He coughed again and gritted his teeth. "How''s that guy?" "He kept clinging to me like a water ghost, so I sent him back to hell" Zhenya muttered "Pretty good". Kwon Taek Joo glared at him then stood up. Water dripped from his body. Wet skin quickly freezes from the outside. The function of his fluid-filled lungs worsened. Even though he inhaled as much air as possible, he was still constantly short of breath. Maybe he needed to warm up as quickly as possible. Kwon Taek Joo tried to go somewhere when Zhenya suddenly blocked his way. "That looks pretty weird." "What?" Zhenya patted his cheek. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously touched his face. The artificial skin was torn due to the explosion and car accident earlier. He sighed and touched the peeling skin. Zhenya''s eyes followed Kwon Taek Joo''s gently moving fingers. Although he said it looked strange, in reality he seemed more curious about what it would be like to peel someone''s skin. Kwon Taek Joo pretended not to know Zhenya''s concern and then walked away tiredly. He leisurely followed and said, "Why don''t you take it off?". Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even laugh at his ridiculous curiosity. He ignored him and walked to the main road, the wind from across the river hit his whole body, making him cold. His teeth began to chatter again. At some point, he glanced at Zhenya, who was standing next to him wearing a thick fur coat. Kwon Taek Joo trembled as he observed him, but he just looked at him with a calm expression, as if asking why he looked like that. He couldn''t be so generous as to take off his coat for a colleague, who wouldn''t be surprised if he froze to death here immediately. Kwon Taek Joo quickly gave up and waved at the approaching taxi. The taxi slowly stopped and then suddenly accelerated and passed him. Is he worried that the chair will get dirty? Or perhaps he was surprised by the passenger''s pathetic appearance? Three or four cars passed like that. Every time Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t catch a taxi, Zhenya would laugh. Although he did not hope for his help, he was also not satisfied with his attitude. His fingertips and toes also gradually lost feeling. "No matter how you look at it, it''s because of that." Zhenya, who had been watching all this time, began to tease him. Kwon Taek Joo looked at him uncomfortably, Zegna used his fingertips to touch his cheek, "Is it necessary to be so stubborn?", he said. Nothing special. No, it was so cold that he didn''t have time to think. Zhenya''s attention made Kwon Taek Joo also start to worry. He tried touching the leather that was swaying in the wind. Suddenly something flew close to his face. Kwon Taek Joo reflexively stepped back and hit the approaching thing. Zhenya''s hand that was reaching out towards Kwon Taek Joo stopped in midair. For a moment, the two people''s eyes met. Zhenya no longer had the sarcastic expression on his face like before. His eyes narrowed slightly, sparkling with a strange interest. "Why are you avoiding it?" "Why do you keep coming forward?" Kwon Taek Joo responded dissatisfied but Zhenya didn''t mind and extended his hand again. "Don''t do that." he said and grabbed his wrist to stop him, his head also falling back. But the next moment, Zhenya''s other hand rushed forward and grabbed his chin. "...!" The torn skin was torn off before he could protest. The entire irritated skin area on the sticky surface tingles. His eyebrows furrowed because of that intense pain. Kwon Taek Joo cursed while opening his eyes, which had been closed for a while. Zhenya stood right in front, looking like he was facing something strange. Transparent eyes slowly rolled over and examined every line on Kwon Taek Joo''s face. The bastard stared at his face then quickly scanned his entire body and looked back at his face. He gave a meaningless smile. His reaction towards Kwon Taek Joo was even more surprising. If it was his real face, he would have seen it in the photo. Of course, the person in the photo and in real life may be different, and because he is familiar with the impression of Hiro Sakamoto, Kwon Taek Joo''s real appearance may not be familiar to him. Is it worth watching so intently, though? Kwon Taek Joo was watched from head to toe. but for some reason he felt like he was standing in front of Zhenya without anything to cover his body. Not only is nudity exposed, but also the thoughts and emotions contained therein are exposed. He was uncomfortable because he felt threatened. Suddenly Zegna''s lips moved. The voice couldn''t be heard clearly but it sounded like he was saying "Go this way..." A cold wind blew again. Kwon Taek Joo squeezed Zhenya''s hand that was placed on his shoulder, then he quickly realized that action and shook his hand away. Kwon Taek Joo turned back to the street and tried to hitchhike. But no kind person would help a suspicious foreigner who was getting wet. Countless vehicles kept passing him coldly. When Kwon Taek Joo no longer felt cold, something touched his shoulder. He turned his head and saw a shiny card. Zhenya was holding it between his thumb and index finger and lightly tapping Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder. "What''s up?" "You don''t know if there will be more surveillance or searches in the future, so dig a hole and hide well." "Hang?" It seemed he heard strange words. Does the word ''hang'' in Russian have another meaning that even Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know? For example, ''tiger''s den'' or wolf''s den... Suddenly a strange bell rang. Looks like it''s Zhenya''s phone. He checked the caller then received the call and asked "What''s going on?". The voice is a bit different from usual. It''s not friendly or kind but more cold and dry than that. His voice was so deep that it sounded like a completely different person. "I know. I''ll be right there." He only listened to the other person''s one-sided story and quickly ended the call. Kwon Taek Joo blankly looked at Zhenya. Since he was a colleague, he thought he would tell him who he had just talked to and what he had discussed. But Zhenya waved his hand into the street without saying a word. Soon a taxi stopped in front of him. Before Kwon Taek Joo could ask where he was going, Zhenya sat in the back seat, closed the door and just left. Kwon Taek Joo stood there bewildered. Soaked clothes had frozen solid and were worse than not wearing them. Zhenya''s hand holding the card was red and shaking. He didn''t know where to go safely. He couldn''t even guess where this was. The taxis still drove quickly and none of them intended to carry Kwon Taek Joo. The winter wind in Moscow blows again. Now he didn''t even have the strength to shrink anymore. He vaguely looked at the cars speeding by, his stomach churning. Come to think of it, he hasn''t had breakfast yet. What movie is it? Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt sad because he looked like a beggar in a place thousands of miles away. Chapter 10 - 1.10 New Mission: Do you want to keep me by your side to watch Chapter 10: 1.10 New Mission: Do you want to keep me by your side to watchKwon Taek Joo found a motel near the river. It was a shabby place, a far cry from the high-class hotel he had stayed in at the invitation of the Russian government. There were several different types of rooms, but because he desperately needed a hot shower, he chose the most expensive room. And then when he entered the room. he didn''t understand why it was more expensive than other rooms. Does the price change simply depending on whether the room has windows or not? The only things in this cramped room were an old bed that could barely fit one person and a table with a broken leg. Speaking a little more, there is also a palm-sized TV, but Kwon Taek Joo wonders if there is enough power to turn it on? And it seems impossible to dream of something as luxurious as Wi-Fi. Of course, as long as the water flows out properly, it''s not a problem. Kwon Taek Joo barely took off the clothes that were still clinging to his body and stood under the shower. He turned the water valve all the way to the hot water side to thaw his freezing body. But the hot water he expected only came out after he had finished showering with cold water. There was no bathrobe so he went out with a large towel wrapped around his waist. Something just quickly disappeared before his sudden appearance. It''s a cockroach. At least 3-4 children. They seem to still be able to mate and lay eggs even in Siberia, where temperatures fluctuate between minus 40 and 50 degrees Celsius. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and threw himself on the bed without hesitation. I don''t know when it was cleaned, but the mattress was full of dust. His nose and throat were itchy and uncomfortable, making him cough continuously, but Kwon Taek Joo still didn''t sit up. He no longer had the strength to lift a finger. The bed creaked every time he turned. Now, it wouldn''t be strange if it collapsed immediately. However, let''s get some sleep first. Kwon Taek Joo''s body felt heavy and his head was dizzy. If he could close his eyes for a moment, maybe his mind would regain consciousness. Soon, both of his eyes became dreamy. Kwon Taek Joo slowly closed his eyes and thought about today. It''s time for your mother to contact you. But now what to do because everything including his cell phone has been blown away. Kwon Taek Joo said goodbye while imagining what it would be like to completely lose contact with his mother. It''s okay for about a day, but after a few days, mom will probably leave the house to find Kwon Taek Joo in person. The day she discovers that Kwon Taek Joo is not an ordinary administrative officer, she will probably be bedridden. His mother would probably cry that she would go first, because she wouldn''t be able to see him become like his father and brother. That''s not possible. Impossible. Kwon Taek Joo sat up. He picked up the receiver on the table and called out to the lobby, but for some reason there was no beep. Even when he hung up and tried calling again, it was still the same. Kwon Taek Joo yanked the phone to check. Sure enough, an electric wire that looked like it had been chewed by a mouse was hanging out. He angrily threw away the phone he was holding in his hand. Today nothing goes your way. What should Kwon Taek Joo do? He ruffled his still wet hair thinking. There is only one way. He didn''t dare put on his clothes, which were still half frozen. Instead. Kwon Taek Joo wrapped a scarf around her waist to cover her lower body and trudged down to the first floor. Contrary to fears, he did not encounter any other guests. The owner was sitting and dozing on the counter. He tapped his hand on the table, startling him awake. "Oh, I''m startled. What''s going on?" "I want to make an international call." "It cost a lot of money. Is it okay?" "No problem. Can I pay by card?" The owner nodded nonchalantly and took out the phone to make international calls from the counter. The phone was covered in dust, probably due to not being used for a long time. Kwon Taek Joo learned the basic instructions and then picked up the receiver. He entered payment information and then dialed the country code and home phone number. Soon, the beeps started falling. His mother picked up the phone immediately. The voice "Hello" was unusual. Looks like she''s worried again. "It''s me. Did you call me?" As expected, Kwon Taek Joo was attacked by a series of questions. Why didn''t you answer the phone, what happened to you and are you injured anywhere? She was so worried as if she hadn''t received any news for several days. Now Kwon Taek Joo is so used to it that he knows how to calm his mother in a reasonable way. S§×arch* The nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He could only end the call after promising himself to proactively call her every day. Energy is depleted. Kwon Taek Joo was pressing on his tired eyes when his stomach started to growl. I guess I have to eat something to feel comfortable enough to go to sleep. Kwon Taek Joo glanced at the motel owner. He was yawning continuously with an annoyed look on his face. "Are there any good restaurants nearby?" He looked annoyed and stood up, then lightly pointed his finger at the location of a certain restaurant. The motel owner was about to sit down after giving instructions when the scarf tied around Kwon Taek Joo''s waist suddenly became loose. The towel fell to the floor before he could stop it. Kwon Taek Joo asked the owner who was staring at his downtown area one more thing. "I probably need some clothes too." Why, out of all the restaurants around here, did he show you such a shabby place? Kwon Taek Joo sat in an empty restaurant and kept looking around. Who knows, maybe this is a hidden delicious restaurant that only locals know about. He tried to console himself and immediately changed his mind when he saw the owner. If the innkeeper''s name is ''lvanovich'', then isn''t the owner of this place ''lvanova''?* It''s just that the hairstyle is slightly different, but if it were a stranger, it would be difficult to be so similar. There seems to be no menu, nor any special notes. The owner. who had been neglecting Kwon Taek Joo all this time. suddenly brought him dishes that he had not ordered. Borscht cabbage soup and Russian-style Pelmeni wontons. Kwon Taek Joo looked curiously at the restaurant owner. She pointed at the wall in front of him. The words coffee, vodka and kvass were scribbled on it. He chose kvass, a traditional Russian drink, and began to taste the food that was being served. The distinctive smell of lamb spread as soon as he took his first bite. After all, it was just an appetizer, Kwon Taek Joo frowned and continued stuffing food into his mouth. He ate and drank sips of kvass. He chewed and rearranged his thoughts. Obviously, after coming to Russia, he encountered bad luck, otherwise the situation would not have been so complicated. He was assigned a mission that he didn''t have enough experience to begin with, he was kidnapped on his first day in Russia, his belongings were blown away in a bomb attack on the third day, and he almost drowned not long ago, he almost couldn''t keep this small life alive. Furthermore, his partner couldn''t help him at all. If he didn''t die at his hands, he would have been very lucky. Kwon Taek Joo has never had so much bad luck in his life, but why is it all happening at once now? His stomach was boiling but Kwon Taek Joo tried to stay calm. There''s no use complaining about the past. It is better to think about the future that is more constructive. It seemed necessary to first report that he was still alive and the progress of the accident to headquarters and then receive additional support. And you must leave here immediately. Considering that Kwon Taek Joo suddenly became the target of Psych Bogdanov, it seems that he is not the only one targeting him. He must clearly understand the situation to ensure safety before it is too late. But how should Kwon Taek Joo contact headquarters? The communication equipment was blown up and it was an absolute secret that Kwon Taek Joo himself was in Russia. Not only the Korean immigration authorities but even the embassy did not know that truth. During his time in Russia, Kwon Taek Joo''s identity was actually Hiro Sakamoto. But he also couldn''t go to the Japanese embassy. What should I do? No matter how hard he thought about it, the only way was through Zhenya. The problem is that he doesn''t even know how to contact him. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know when he''ll come or where he''ll meet, and Zhenya seems to only appear when he feels like it, with no way to predict it. Maybe we can only wait. That guy also doesn''t have any plans, so just giving you a card is enough? Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know where he will go. "Really." He shook his head in frustration and put down his fork. When his stomach was full to a certain extent, he no longer had the will to swallow these tasteless foods. Kwon Taek Joo took the bill and went to the payment counter. At the same time a bell rang from the door behind him. Two police officers were walking inside. They seemed to be very close friends with the owner, so after cordially greeting each other, they found a plce and sat down. The owner brought out glasses and vodka as usual, chatted with them for a while at the table before returning to the counter to pay "It''s 3000 rubles." She unreasonably slow in stating the amount of money he had to pay, because even 1,000 rubles was already a lot. but her expression was not only shameless but also very confident. Kwon Taek Joo was not the least bit satisfied with the quality of the food and the price, but he also had no strength to argue. It''s not his money anyway. He silently handed out the card. The owner seemed quite dissatisfied. When Kwon Taek Joo said he didn''t have cash, she reluctantly accepted the card. After a while of waiting, it seemed like there was a problem with the payment terminal. The owner, after swiping his card many times, glanced at Kwon Taek Joo and then suddenly went to the two policemen''s table. They then continued to glance at Kwon Taek Joo and whispered something. He immediately made eye contact with two police officers but for some reason those eyes were not very friendly. Are they talking about Kwon Taek Joo himself? Soon, one of the two policemen stood up. Kwon Taek Joo stared at the man approaching him with a puzzled expression. "Is there something wrong with me?" "Shall we talk a bit, sir?" Meanwhile, the remaining police officer also approached as if surrounding him and grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s arm. What''s the matter here? These never-ending events are truly wild. It seems there was some misunderstanding. Misunderstandings are often resolved when you calmly talk to each other. The problem is that the artificial mask has now been removed, so with his current appearance, Kwon Taek Joo is not Hiro Sakamoto. His true identity may be revealed. At all costs you must avoid anything related to the police. Should he ignore it and just run away? It''s also not difficult to fight both with your bare hands. But Kwon Taek Joo worries that running away would mean admitting to charges he didn''t know about and would even turn the Russian police into enemies. There was no benefit in increasing the number of pursuers in his current hiding situation. First, Kwon Taek Joo needs to calmly consider what needs to be done. "Shouldn''t you also tell me the reason?" "The card you were trying to use was reported as stolen." What? I do have it. It wasn''t a problem when I used it at the motel not long ago. The owner gave the card reader to a confused Kwon Taek Joo. A real warning message is being displayed on it. "Come on, don''t waste any more time, let''s go." The police officer urged Kwon Taek Joo who was standing stunned. What should I do? If we continue to be dragged along like this, we will encounter many difficulties. He had now lost contact with headquarters and it was difficult to expect any support. After all, the only way to escape is to knock out these two policemen? While Kwon Taek Joo was still hesitating, the police officer who had urged him earlier was trying to handcuff him. Immediately Kwon Taek Joo raised his hand. "Gulp!" He used the back of his hand to hit the policeman in the face and then stabbed him in the chest with his elbow. The big policeman held his nose and chest and fell helplessly down. Red blood flowed between his thick fingers. The police colleague who was watching the scene widened his eyes and rushed over. "Ah this bastard!" He shook off his grabbed arm and was about to kick him in the stomach when a distinctive bell rang from the door. Kwon Taek Joo, whose long legs were floating in the air, along with the two police officers who were trying to react, stopped moving. The one who walked in at the right time was Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt relieved when he saw a familiar face, If the owner of the card had arrived, everything would probably be fine. He abandoned his attacking stance and stood up straight. Immediately afterwards, the confronting officer flew in and knocked Kwon Taek Joo down. His wrists were immediately bent backwards and handcuffed. Kwon Taek Joo helplessly glared at Zhenya. He even nodded to signal him to quickly resolve this damn situation. But Zhenya just leisurely looked around inside the restaurant. Perhaps he was assessing the situation, but shouldn''t comfort also distinguish time and place? Kwon Taek Joo''s body, which was being crushed by the police, was violently pulled up. The police officer who handcuffed him gasped and asked about the condition of his colleague who had just woken up. The policeman with the nosebleed smiled as he approached Kwon Taek Joo, hatred evident in the hand pushing his back. Kwon Taek Joo still stood firm without taking a single step. He glared at Zhenya, who had been observing all this while. "Hurry up!" The big policeman shouted excitedly. But when Kwon Taek Joo didn''t move, he raised his hand as if intending to hit him with a strong spirit. Just as a giant fist was about to fall on his face, something fast and nimble stopped him right in front. "..Ah!" It''s unknown what happened because Kwon Taek Joo''s vision was obscured a moment ago. But before he knew it, Zhenya was standing tall like a wall in front of Kwon Taek Joo. He was holding the neck of the police officer standing in front of Kwon Taek Joo with one hand. The police officer''s face turned pale in just a moment due to being squeezed so tightly. His eyes were wide open and he looked like he was about to fall. Zhenya only let him go when the policeman was about to not be able to breathe anymore. The huge officer fell helplessly with just that gentle gesture. His face turned red as the blood began to circulate again. "Talk to me first." Zhenya looked down at the policeman and gently requested. The two police officers looked at each other warily with puzzled expressions, then after several glances, one officer nodded and signaled him to follow him. Zhenya turned back to look at Kwon Taek Joo and quietly followed him out. Kwon Taek Joo came and sat at the table next to the window. Zhenya was talking to a police officer outside. He occasionally flashed a commercial smile and smoothly continued the conversation. He tried to guess the content by looking at his mouthpiece, but it wasn''t easy because the policeman accompanying him blocked his view. His fat ass invaded his vision whenever Kwon Taek Joo could concentrate. Soon, Zhenya and the officer returned to the restaurant. He looked at Zhenya as if asking for an explanation. That guy just smiled and shrugged. The police officer accompanying him did not explain much to his curious colleague. He pointed his finger at Kwon Taek Joo and gave an unexpected instruction. "''ll let you go." Kwon Taek Joo looked at Zhenya uncomfortably, wondering if the conversation just now went well or not. Immediately the handcuffs binding his wrists were released. The two officers quickly exchanged greetings and left the restaurant. The owner, who had been watching the entire situation up until now, tilted his head. Kwon Taek Joo was equally confused. "What did you do?" "I just gave them a few coins to pay for the alcohol." Zhenya replied nonchalantly. Kwon Taek Joo stood with his arms crossed, looking at him suspiciously. The bastard always smiles slowly and faces everything comfortably. Even though he always looked like that, he felt strangely scared. It was difficult to shake off the suspicion that his free-spirited appearance was not his true nature. Although he looks comfortable, Zhenya is not a superficial person. Although he is bold and reckless, he does not act without thinking. Kwon Taek Joo wondered how he could find him, but it seemed Zhenya had thought this through before him. First, he will track the location of use of the card he gave you, and if necessary, report the card as stolen as is. The fact that the other person feels awkward is not an issue that needs to be considered. His personality is also not simple. Even though it was Psych Bogdanov''s car, the fact that his partner was still in the car couldn''t stop him from continuously shooting. Zhenya did not mind Kwon Taek Joo''s suspicious eyes. Rather, he was being brazen as if he wanted me to look at him for pleasure. That appearance made Kwon Taek Joo raise his sarcastic voice even more. "You seem so busy, huh? It''s really hard to see your face." "What''s wrong? Do you want to keep me by your side to watch?" Are not. I just want to pull down your ears and sew them together with your beak. Kwon Taek Joo bared his teeth and smiled fakely. His eyes that were glued to Zhenya suddenly looked over his shoulder. He grabbed Zhenya''s chin when he turned to follow his gaze. Then Kwon Taek Joo looked straight into his eyes and gently licked his lips. "Someone has been glancing this way since a while ago. Haven''t you been followed?" "..Ah?" "Not careful at all." "What should we do now?" "It has to be resolved." "Then you stay here, I''ll go handle it and come back." "If you need help, you can tell me now." "Thank you, but I decline." He smiled and answered and left. When Zhenya left the restaurant, the person hiding in the corner was suddenly startled. Zhenya strode leisurely towards him, the hem of her long coat fluttering. The spy was startled and suddenly ran away. Zhenya slowly followed him, and soon the two disappeared from Kwon Taek Joo''s sight. Just 2-3 minutes later Zhenya appeared again. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyebrows furrowed as he looked at him, because the eye-catching long coat he had just worn had disappeared. "Where''s the coat?" "I threw it away." Kwon Taek Joo didn''t ask why because he could vaguely know the reason. But Zhenya was still very enthusiastic in explaining the situation. "Because it''s dirty." Kwon Taek Joo glanced at his fingers. Even though he didn''t try to notice it, it still caught his attention. He punctured someone''s eyeball with those fingers. Where were they placed today? If it''s to the point of having to remove the jacket and then turn around, then it must be the neck? Perhaps Zhenya suffocated the other person by crushing his nose and mouth. Although it sounds absurd, for someone like him, it is extremely easy. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo felt uncomfortable. Somehow this bastard resembles Psych Bogdanov more than the guy who died in the river. He stared at Zhenya''s fingers and thought vaguely. Suddenly a light ''click'' sounded. Kwon Taek Joo was suddenly startled to realize Zhenya was snapping his fingers right in front of his face. He looked up and saw a mischievous smile on his face. Kwon Taek Joo really doesn''t like it. Zhenya held something out towards him, frowning heavily and glaring at him. "Don''t look elsewhere, look here." Chapter 11 - 1.11 New Mission: Armory Chapter 11: 1.11 New Mission: ArmoryWhat he presented was an invitation card. A party was held at the Kremlin to celebrate the signing of the agreement between Russia and Japan. A Japanese delegation and Russian figures from different walks of life were scheduled to attend. Kwon Taek Joo also planned to infiltrate there as Hiro Sakamoto, but the entire plan failed due to the previous surprise terrorist attack. S§×arch* The n??el Fire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. However, the date written on the invitation was different from what he knew before. It seems that the schedule was changed due to an unpleasant incident at the hotel where the Japanese delegation was staying. Checking, searching and security will also be enhanced by one level. How to get in there? While Kwon Taek Joo was still thinking, Zhenya took back the invitation card he was looking at. "This is just a facade. The real party will be held later." "Real party?" "Not far from the Kremlin is the residence of the Boedanov family. They are the real representatives of Gazprom. The second son has a close relationship with the President. I heard that after a national event, a dinner party will be held immediately afterward at their mansion. Even those who are not invited to the Kremlin will still come to the party there. The underworld bosses or the big hands that control the Russian money are truly honored guests. They are people who will do anything to make money, so they are quite a useful source of information. If you meet them, you don''t know what clues you will get. about ''Anastasia" "Could it be that Bogdanov is the Bogdanov I know?" "Why not?" "They still hold a party like that even though my bloodline just died?" Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand. By this time, Psych Bogdanov''s body had already been found. Even if it is a national event, can it be held at home? "Do you really think he''s dead?" "Isn''t that so?" "What a pity. I listened to the news and found out that only two bodies were found in that river." No wonder. Why would it be so easy to kill him? Kwon Taek Joo was warned many times about him, right? But it was true that he was unconscious and bleeding profusely from the gunshot wound, so saving him would be difficult. Furthermore, the river water is so cold that the river banks freeze and quickly reduce body temperature. Surviving in such harsh conditions, as expected, as he heard, he is not an ordinary guy. Psych Bogdanov''s survival means that at any moment he could become his target. Kwon Taek Joo felt uncomfortable but he tried to put it aside. "How do I make sure I get Anastasia''s clue there?" Zhenya immediately gave Kwon Taek Joo something, as if he knew he would ask that question. It''s a document envelope folded in half. He grabbed it and examined the contents. Inside was a copy of an old newspaper article and a series of unknown identities. The list lists dozens of Russian and Korean names. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the written names while looking at the copy of the article. Each article has a date in the past, their name, and how they faced death. But how did the names of the deceased seem so familiar to Kwon Taek Joo? He checked the list again with a skeptical expression. Soon both of his eyes opened wide, because most of the names listed on that list matched the names of the deceased listed in the article. Zhenya explains why. "These are the people who participated in the development of Anastasia. They are all dead now." "Why did you die?" "Let''s see, why did he die?" Zhenya raised the corner of his mouth and asked again. He had a sarcastic look on his face as if he was teasing a child who didn''t know anything. Kwon Taek Joo had a vague thought, but he still couldn''t come to a hasty conclusion. Intertwining doubts continually hindered the flow of his thoughts. Kwon Taek Joo kicked Zhenya''s shoes, urging him to answer quickly. Zhenya only opened his mouth after enjoying Kwon Taek Joo''s anxious look for a while longer. "Anastasia is a lethal weapon with unprecedented destructive power. There are many things hidden. Everyone talks about Anastasia, but in reality, many people don''t even know what kind of weapon it is.". And even though they don''t know what it is, they''re still vaguely afraid. No, it''s because they don''t know that they''re afraid. Perhaps the fact that nothing is revealed is Anastasia''s true strength. But once development is complete, the story will change. The research participants will scatter, and one of them may spread rumors about Anastasia''s true identity and principles. This Shouldn''t happen, right? Because Anastasia must become an unprecedented fear in the present and the future." Kwon Taek Joo frowned. Even if he didn''t listen to the end, he still felt like he knew the correlation between ''Anastasia'' and the other list. Zhenya nodded affirmatively. "All have been purged, so that such weapons can never be developed again." Kwon Taek Joo was speechless for a moment. They were not murdered for stealing secret information or counterintelligence. They were simply eliminated before even attempting to do so. Kwon Taek Joo looked down at the list again in shock. Then he realized something strange and objected. "But...!" "That''s right, in the meantime there are still survivors." Members of the Bogdanov family also appear on the list. But they are still alive and well. With most of the people involved in developing ''Anastasia'' facing death, how can one explain their survival? Kwon Taek Joo continued to reason and then looked at Zhenya with an expression as if he had just been hit in the head. A satisfied smile spread across Zhenya''s lips. The Bogdanov family was clearly involved in the study of Anastasia''. But with most of those involved dead, they are the only ones still alive. Isn''t that proof that they were the ones who eliminated those researchers? To possess this weapon absolutely, so that nothing like it could be born again. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s somewhat serious face. "What do you think? Do you feel like having a little fun now?" "That''s a tiger''s den. Would I jump into it empty-handed?" Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and lamented. If the information Zhenya probed is accurate, there is a high possibility that the Bogdanov family will know Anastasia''s whereabouts. The problem is your own situation. Tomorrow night, a party will be held. Even if he contacted headquarters through Zhenya, it would be difficult to receive material support within a day. But he could not rush into the tiger''s den with his bare hands. "I didn''t think headquarters would be so prepared." Zhenya laughed and said "Get up". After paying for the food and leaving the store, a convertible parked in front of Kwon Taek Joo, its sleek appearance identical to its owner. Zhenya pushed Kwon Taek Joo, who was standing dumbfounded, into the passenger seat and quickly drove down the street. About 30 - 40 minutes passed like that. High-rise buildings gradually disappear and people become fewer and fewer. What is this place? Kwon Taek Joo was looking around suspiciously when the car stopped. "Arrived." Kwon Taek Joo obediently got out of the car and continuously looked around. There were no warehouses or garages to be seen. All that entered his sight was an abandoned building that was collapsing. First is a store with a book sign. But it seems like it closed a long time ago so there are no customers at all. Kwon Taek Joo followed Zhenya, full of doubts. The guy in front pulled up the shutter and went inside. Kwon Taek Joo also continued to enter the building without any light. Zhenya opened another door inside and disappeared down the dark stairs. He chased after him without thinking and almost slipped and fell. You should at least tell people that there are stairs there, but he''s not someone who cares about others like that. Kwon Taek Joo suppressed his dissatisfaction with Zhenya and continued groping in the dark along the wall where he couldn''t see even a centimeter in front of him. Finally, his feet landed on the flat floor. Although his vision was still dark, Kwon Taek Joo could feel the dust rising. Every time I move, dust flies around, making my nose itchy. But something is a bit strange. The basement of the bookstore usually has stacks of old books, but here there is no that characteristic smell. A moment later, the light turned on with a clicking sound. "...?" The light on the ceiling could distinguish the furniture, but his vision was still dark. Kwon Taek Joo frowned and slowly looked around. It wasn''t long before he realized the cause of the uneasy feeling he had been feeling all this time. Large bookcases were placed everywhere in the basement, but there were no books there. There was only an old phone lying in the middle of an empty bookshelf. Why did he drag Kwon Taek Joo all the way here? Just as doubts and complaints were growing inside him, Zhenya approached the phone. He picked up the receiver and slowly dialed the number. 3, 9, 1, 6, 5. When the dial, which had been pulled to ''5'', returned to its original position, a mechanical beep sounded from somewhere. Then, the empty bookshelves began to rotate, making heavy noises. As a result, a lot of dust was blown up. When Kwon Taek Joo closed his itchy eyes and opened them, the old bookshelf also disappeared. Instead there is a shiny steel cabinet. All kinds of guns, high-tech equipment and small bombs are lined up in storage cabinets. Chapter 12 - 1.12 Nuclear Man: Bogdanov Mansion Chapter 12: 1.12 Nuclear Man: Bogdanov MansionThe Bogdanov family''s mansion is truly beyond imagination with its size and luxurious appearance that can rival the Kremlin. The blue roof over white walls exudes elegance and sophistication. The harmony between Rococo''s unique soft curves and dazzling gold decorations adds a classic touch. along with meticulously crafted circular stone steps and giant marble columns supporting the ceiling. high building. Kwon Taek Joo felt the majesty and solemnity that was hard to touch through the large and sturdy gate. The light concentrated around the entire building creates a vaguely magical atmosphere. The shadow of the main gate is bold and stretches across the lawn. The door that had been closed all this time was quietly opening after midnight. Cars were still lined up across the large garden even in the middle of the night. The mansion is located next to a large lake, so after passing the main gate, you have to walk for a while to get inside. Dense trees along the small road act as a wall separating them from the outside, discreetly hiding the activities inside the mansion. Security is tight because the guests are famous people with high social status. Everyone must be allowed in through the main gate first and then again at the start of the path leading into the main garden. The same goes for Kwon Taek Joo''s car. S~ea??h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. An armed security guard approached and knocked on the door. Kwon Taek Joo lowered the window as instructed and then had four or five items of information checked. Even when bringing an invitation, the name listed on the attendance list, the car number, whether there is an accompanying person or not, and even the relationship with the accompanying person, all must match what has been announced. before, no exceptions. "Can you show me the invitation, please?" Kwon Taek Joo obediently did as requested. The guard holds a reader equipped with a special light placed near the invitation envelope. Soon, a mark that could not be seen with the naked eye appeared. A clear electronic sound rang out from the recognition device. Immediately after that, the guard carefully looked inside the car. It is to confirm the accompanying person. It seems that the invitation letter was processed to not only hide the secret information on it but also the guest''s information. When the device recognizes the card''s serial number, the guest''s identity will automatically appear on the screen. The intention to completely prevent uninvited guests is expressed very clearly. The security guard carefully observed the back row and quickly said "Thank you for your cooperation." and retreat. As a result, congestion extended from the main gate to the garden entrance and from the garden entrance to the front of the mansion. "How great is this party that an entire spy movie has to be filmed?" Kwon Taek Joo was grumbling with a bored expression. "I have to endure these unnecessary ridiculous things alone, is the world fair?" Kwon Taek Joo stared at the rearview mirror and complained. He made eye contact with Zhenya sitting in the back seat. His eyes silently curled up. "I was the only one invited, so there was no other way. There are only two ways for uninvited guests to join the party, to be a driver like now or to be a lover. If you don''t like the first one, you have to disguise yourself." becomes a second one, right? It''s probably worth watching." "There''s also a way to control a guard and change clothes. In such a crowded place, even if one person disappears, no one will know, right?" "Are you the type of person who likes to live hard? If you want to use your strength, save it for important moments." It''s not wrong. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know how Zhenya got such an official invitation, but since they were invited, there was no need to make a fuss. He just didn''t like the thought of having to treat Zhenya like a boss, even for a moment. "You can close the window now," Zhenya said. There''s definitely an open/close button in the back seat, he just doesn''t want to lift his finger. Kwon Taek Joo glared at Zhenya through the rearview mirror and reluctantly rolled up the window. Finally arrived in front of the mansion. He pulled the car aside and applied the handbrake. Meanwhile, Zhenya did not move at all. "What are you doing, don''t you get out of the car?" "That''s what I was going to say. Did you forget something?" When Kwon Taek Joo asked again with a puzzled expression, Zhenya winked at the door behind him. He shook his head as if that was impossible, but Zhenya nodded as if that was exactly what he was talking about. There were many eyes outside the car watching. A residence employee is also arriving to provide valet parking for guests. Kwon Taek Joo has no other choice. He sighed and got out of the driver''s seat. He then walked around the car and opened the backseat door. Zhenya leaned forward and walked out, his movements leisurely and his eyes licking his face for a long moment. One side of his mouth curled up. "Please come this way." The wait staff politely guided Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo quickly followed. A large gate appeared after climbing ten steps. Its height was probably at least 4m with doors opened on both sides by guards. The Bogdanov family''s mansion finally appeared. A completely different world from the outside is opened. The endless ceiling and the lobby extending to both sides like a replica of a chapel in a cathedral overwhelm guests right from the entrance. Pure white walls and pillars exude elegant luxury, and gold-plated jewelry shows off the nobility to the smallest detail. The light from the gorgeous chandelier shines down gently on the gold as if making the view more open. The painting on the ceiling has dark tones to help harmonize the colors of the room. Large and small statues are cleverly arranged to eliminate boredom on monotonous walls. A small-scale orchestra is performing enthusiastically on the balcony-style staircase. The lively yet sophisticated melody fills the vast space without interrupting the conversation. "I''m going to throw up." Zhenya suddenly turned to look at Kwon Taek Joo as he talked to himself. Even though he was in an enchanting space that is hard to find every day, his expression looked very depressed. Of course he didn''t expect him to have wonderful impressions of beauty or to feel like he was in a fairy tale. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t seem to have an eye for aesthetics, and he also doesn''t seem to be passionate about playing the prince. Even so, even when entering a place that he might only visit once in his life, the only thing he felt was "Nausea". Zhenya stared expressionlessly at Kwon Taek Joo''s face, the corner of his mouth curled up, then he turned away. There were many people gathered in the main lobby. They were divided into groups of 3-4 people and talked to each other. Among them is a character that attracts Kwon Taek Joo''s attention. He is the president of Russia. Even though it was a face he had seen many times in the media, seeing him right in front of him made him feel unreal. "Come in." Kwon Taek Joo was checking the surrounding situation when a middle-aged employee approached and sincerely greeted him. He looked like a butler or general manager of the party. Zhenya passed him and entered the hall without answering. The man stood up straight, blocking Kwon Taek Joo who was unintentionally trying to follow. "Driver goes this way." He stretched out his arm and pointed to the side passage. It looks like a space mainly for employees. Kwon Taek Joo quickly looked after Zhenya, but the bastard just walked straight ahead without looking back. Every time it''s like this. Even though he is a partner, he cannot help in important matters. "Let''s go." The manager silently urged. It''s difficult to act in a driver''s shoes. Having no other choice, Kwon Taek Joo followed him to the designated location. The last time he saw Zhenya, he had mingled with the other high-ranking guests. He is like an indispensable person in Russia''s top royal club. Zhenya, who exactly is that guy? Kwon Taek Joo''s eves instantly became sharp. All emotions evaporated from his hard face The place he was taken by the manager was the storage room next to the kitchen. That place receives uninvited guests, including Kwon Taek Joo. As soon as he stepped in, the door behind him slammed shut. The people gathered in the room were all focused on their phones as if they were used to being treated like that. Some people are playing chess or joking with each other. If this is the case, why did they let staff into the mansion? Wouldn''t it be better to stay in the car? If you must find a reason, it is to prepare for an unexpected call from your boss. Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue in disgust at that extremely ineffective scene. It was comforting to know that, unlike them, he had work to do. The party is in full swing and is also the perfect opportunity to find out the secret. If so, then Kwon Taek Joo needs to leave this place and return to the main hall, where the important people are. But he didn''t have a suitable reason. As a driver, he even had to get permission to go to the bathroom. If Kwon Taek Joo''s unexpected behavior is discovered, his identity will immediately be suspected. Should he trust Zhenya and wait? No, that''s not possible. What should I do? Kwon Taek Joo continued to wander by the door and think of a way to escape. The staff looked at him curiously as he was suspiciously busy but they quickly lost interest. If you just leave quietly like this, it seems like no one will notice. Kwon Taek Joo quietly opened the door after confirming that no eyes were watching him. He gingerly opened the gap, careful not to make any noise from the hinges. Outside the door it seemed like someone was transporting alcohol and food. Kwon Taek Joo found the right moment and quickly walked out and quickly closed the door. He didn''t relax the tension until he completely let go of the handle. Only after the door closed did he breathe a sigh of relief. On the aisle there was only Kwon Taek Joo. He had to find a way to get back to the main hall before someone showed up. Kwon Taek Joo immediately turned his back on the kitchen and started walking. There was a hallway that branched off to the side not far away. Everything is going smoothly. "Where are you going?" Until he heard an unexpected voice. When Kwon Taek Joo stopped walking and turned around, the manager he met earlier was standing tall. His eyes looked suspiciously at Kwon Taek Joo without missing a single corner. He had to quickly find an excuse. "I want to find the bathroom." He made the most awkward face possible. It is a physiological problem that people often understand. However, the manager''s suspicions were not easily dispelled. He silently examined Kwon Taek Joo little by little. He didn''t avoid it, but just returned that look. Kwon Taek Joo even tried to lift the corner of his mouth. The capital manager makes a living by dealing with people, so it is not easy to deceive him. Suspicious eyes seemed to be scratching Kwon Taek Joo''s skin like glass beads. Not long after, he signaled a waiter coming out of the kitchen. "You over there, take this guy to the bathroom." Even though he said it was urgent, he still looked stressed. The waiter approached Kwon Taek Joo and said "Let''s go." Unfortunately, the toilet is on the opposite side of the hallway. He had no choice but to bow to the manager and follow the waiter. The restroom is mainly used only by staff here and is located near the kitchen. On the way there, Kwon Taek Joo carefully observed the ceiling, walls, columns, windows and all the spaces but did not see a single surveillance camera. "I''m here. Please excuse me." The waiter nodded and turned to leave. Kwon Taek Joo obediently ducked against the wall to get out of the way and then suddenly grabbed his shoulder "What''s up..." "You should probably get some rest." "What?" The waiter looked puzzled and confused. But that didn''t last long, because Kwon Taek Joo suddenly hit his weak point. The waiter, who was stunned with surprise, quickly went down. Kwon Taek Joo pulled him inside. A moment later, he came out looking like the perfect waiter. The door to the room where the waiter was earlier was tightly closed. Something fell from inside. Kwon Taek Joo took a mop that was leaning against the wall and inserted it across the door and the opposite wall. It will take a while to spot the waiter. Kwon Taek Joo had to handle everything during that time He didn''t hesitate and went straight to the kitchen. "Where''s my whiskey? Where did you run off with the canap¨¦s! You lazy guy, move quickly!" Outside, an elegant party was in full swing, but inside the kitchen looked like a battlefield. The irritable and grumpy chef handed a wooden tray of Single Malt to Kwon Taek Joo as he entered the kitchen. He pushed his back hard and told him to stop acting like a slug. Just like that, Kwon Taek Joo was kicked out again. Although he was quite confused, this was a good opportunity for him to enter the main hall alone. Kwon Taek Joo followed closely behind another waiter who was walking ahead of him. Thanks to that. he was able to return to the main hall without getting lost. Kwon Taek Joo met the manager again as he walked to the lobby door, but he quickly lifted the tray onto his shoulder and covered his face. Just then, many people had gathered in the hall, and even though they were in the same space, the aspects of the conversation were very different. On one side were discussing political issues with a somewhat serious expression, on the other side were young men and women giggling together. The children who were reluctantly dragged here were dozing, some were eating, some were sitting like dolls. It''s not easy to find the lovely innocence that is often seen in children in any of the children here. Kwon Taek Joo walked back and forth between high-ranking guests and offered them Single Malt wine on a tray, while naturally eavesdropping on the back and forth conversation. Perhaps because the space is so large, there doesn''t seem to be any interesting story. There must be someone in this group of people who knows Anastasia''s whereabouts. Kwon Taek Joo decided to narrow his outreach goals. A special lens worn on his left eve quickly prints information about a specific person when he looks at them for more than 3 seconds. If he looked at Lomonosov for three seconds, the words "Valery Antonovich Lomonosov, President of Russia" would appear in one corner of his vision and then disappear. Kwon Taek Joo slowly turned his left eye and checked the faces of each guest. From high-ranking government officials, including the president, to world-famous corporations and notorious mafia bosses, they all stand together in one place. "This suits you too." Kwon Taek Joo was happily observing his surroundings when a familiar voice suddenly rang out. When he turned around, Zhenya was standing right next to him. He reached out to grab a glass of Single Malt and looked happy, perhaps because of the attention from around him. Kwon Taek Joo also occasionally offers alcohol to people passing in front of the two. Zhenya muttered as he gently swirled the wine in the glass. "Isn''t this a strange place? It''s this noisy but no one really exists." He almost asked again. Feeling like he had just heard something strange, Kwon Taek Joo wondered if he heard wrong. But then he realized his current situation and closed his mouth, only his eyes glanced suspiciously at Zhenya. He slowly brought the glass to his lips and changed the subject as if the previous muttering was just Kwon Taek Joo''s hallucination. "The person standing with Lomonosov is the second son of the Bogdanov family, Bazim Vissarionovich. Known as one of the president''s closest associates. I heard that the two of them always like to ride horses together once a week. He is the most influential person among the Duma parliamentarians, right? In general, all public projects proposed by the Russian government must pass through his hands before being approved by the president." Come to think of it. Kwon Taek Joo had heard that the head of the Bogdanov family was the true representative of Gazprom. It is understandable that his son is one of the President''s close friends and also one of the influential parliamentarians in parliament. Zhenya quickly put the empty glass in his hand down on the tray while explaining why the energy facility construction contract with Japan was successfully signed and why the Bogdanov family became the biggest beneficiaries. He drank another glass in quick succession and pointed at an older figure. "The person sitting in the wheelchair over there is Visarion Romanovich, a powerful figure of the state-owned Gazprom corporation. The reason the Bogdanov family is what it is today is thanks to that old man''s tight grip on the energy industry. This country survives." has survived so far thanks to abundant resources that became a source of capital and economic support immediately after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The ruler of Russia is the president, but the people who really control everything are the presidents. boss like him" The true nature of the Bogdanov family is much greater than what Kwon Taek Joo imagined. Curiosity about the rest of the family also began to arise. He quickly turned his eyes to look for Vladimir Vissarionovich, the eldest son of the Bogdanov family. After searching for a while but not seeing him anywhere, Kwon Taek Joo took a glass of Single Malt and gave it to Zhenya. He understood the meaning of that action and smiled, then calmly took the glass and said, "Here he comes." Kwon Taek Joo turned his head towards Zhenya''s gaze. A man was walking down the stairs and shaking hands with guests. The surprising thing is that he has a small figure but makes a sharp impression. "They say the eldest son, Vladimir, will take over the family business. When Vissarion Romanovich dies, he will become Russia''s number one energy tycoon. Slaves give birth to slaves, kings are born kings. He has received more attention than his father in the industry. Some predict that the family business will grow stronger under him." "Everyone''s gathered here, so what about Psych Bogdanov? Is he Visarion Romanovich''s illegitimate son? A gangster like him doesn''t really fit in with the royal family, huh." "Not really. Strictly speaking, that person is a government employee." Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously turned to look at Zhenya. Apparently he heard wrong this time. Otherwise, Zhenya might have told a not-so-funny joke. But Zhenya just faced Kwon Taek Joo with an extremely calm expression. Unbelievable. Is the person who tried to kidnap an innocent foreigner a public servant? The person holding the bazooka right in the center of the city in broad daylight is a government employee... A dog passing by would probably die of laughter. But Zhenya did not correct what he said, but only added a little more detail about Psych Bogdanov. "That person is very knowledgeable in the defense industry. His abilities are also quite impressive. In the underworld where diverse arms trade is taking place, no one knows him." The underworld is the mafia. The fact that the mafia has become an emerging force in the Russian economy has become a clear fact. In the past, mafia gangs maintained their power through illegal activities such as prostitution, human trafficking, drug trafficking and violence. However, since the early 1990s, they have turned their attention to the defense industry. As a result, they have boosted their incomes and the defense industry, along with the energy industry, have become the major power duo of today''s Russian economy. Many weapons developed in Russia are often traded through the mafia. That''s because they can achieve higher profits than by following formal and legal procedures. The government cannot be unaware of the path to selling advanced weapons created with the national budget. And even if they know, they either turn a blind eye or willingly agree. With powerful financial resources, the mafia is not the government''s enemy, but its brothers. The living witnesses are the Bogdanov family. The Bogdanov family was not very prominent in the business world before the time of Vissarion Romanovich. Their rapid rise came after the collapse of the Soviet Union, during a period when new corporations were flourishing. Although it may be an extreme guess, assuming the Bogdanov family has mafia connections then everything can be explained, including the difficult situation they had to go through before the 1990s.. Kwon Taek Joo can also guess why Psych Bogdanov is called Russia''s ''nuclear''. Although he has made enemies within the Royal Family, he still maintains relationships in the underground world. And he has become a seamless bridge between two divided economies. Chapter 13 - 1.13 Nuclear Man: Prick your ears and listen Chapter 13: 1.13 Nuclear Man: Prick your ears and listenSo is that guy the one who took the lead in developing ''Anastasia''? Did Morgan approach him with those assumptions and end up murdered? Although there is no specific evidence, it is clearly very suspicious. Kwon Taek Joo was still thinking hard when Zhenya suddenly said, "I''m out of wine." Sure enough, the tray was full of empty glasses. If he were a normal waiter, he would return to the kitchen before the drinks were gone to maintain the party''s professional style. But Kwon Taek Joo was so engrossed in what Zhenya had just said that he lost track of time. He turned his attention towards the kitchen hallway, the manager from before was glancing at him strangely. "I have to go." "Let''s hear about this before that. I just saw Psych Bogdanov go upstairs. Alexei Perov and Yuri Levin also secretly followed." Alexei Perov and Yurv Repin are Russia''s Ministers of Defense and Foreign Ministers. The two and Psych Bogdanov have a secret meeting. So Kwon Taek Joo must find out what is going on. "I''ll cover you, so turn on your communicator." Zhenya continued to demand as Kwon Taek Joo hurriedly tried to return to the kitchen. For some reason. his tone seemed light, as if something happy was about to happen. He wasn''t sure if he could trust someone as shady as him. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and crossed the hallway. "Wait." Although he tried to pretend not to see the manager standing in the aisle, he called Kwon Taek Joo over. He lifted the tray and covered his face. "Did you forget the instructions? Do your work properly and move quickly." "Yes. I remember" "If it were me, I would take at least one more step instead of answering." He took it upon himself to arrest others and then scold them again. Kwon Taek Joo controlled his emotions and ran through the hallway. The chef''s screams still echoed in the kitchen. As soon as the waiters put down the empty trays, they were kicked out with new trays of food. Kwon Taek Joo had just stepped into the kitchen when someone took the empty tray from his hand He quickly looked inside and noticed a corner of the kitchen where food was constantly piling up without being cleaned. While another waiter was facing the chef, Kwon Taek Joo approached the kitchen counter. The chefs of each department put a lot of effort into preparing ingredients, cooking dishes, presenting and decorating. But if a small action like pouring sauce goes wrong at the end, the dish will still be thrown in the trash mercilessly. As a result, trash piles up and spills onto the floor. According to the mansion''s diagram, there is a door leading from the material warehouse to the backyard. And waste is often disposed of in places that are not easily seen. Then there is no better place than the backyard. Kwon Taek Joo lifted the heavy trash can. The kitchen staff are all too busy to pay attention to others. He walked around the kitchen counter and entered the ingredient warehouse. There is a side door on the opposite side. The door is locked from the inside so getting out is not a problem. What needs to be noted is the tight security outside. Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door to step out, Kwon Taek Joo was stopped by a bodyguard. "What''s up?" "Ah, there''s so much trash... If we don''t take care of it right away, our chef will explode." S~ea??h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The bodyguard looked at Kwon Taek Joo and then looked at the trash can in his hand. Soon, eyes passed by Kwon Taek Joo and looked into the kitchen. The chef''s frantic screams echoed through the open door. The guard seemed to understand the story. Kwon Taek Joo bowed and went to the landfill. He took out the food waste while observing the entire building. If the two ministers and Psych Bogdanov were meeting secretly, then the first floor, where the party was being held, was not the ideal choice. Of course, even if the entire first floor was removed, there would still be a lot of empty rooms. Kwon Taek Joo looked out over the entire mansion and then suddenly fixed his eyes on the room at the end of the 3rd floor. Because it was night, all the rooms had curtains drawn, but for some reason that room was the only exception. He didn''t know why, but somehow he felt uncomfortable trying to ignore it. It would be better if you check it out a bit. Kwon Taek Joo visualizes the general travel path. There are too many eyes watching inside so it''s better to move from the outside. The backyard is quite quiet, the darkness of the building is also very suitable for hiding. Of course he had to clear the guards first. Kwon Taek Joo returned to the ingredient warehouse with an empty trash can. The bodyguard from before was still observing the area. When Kwon Taek Joo approached, he turned around without question. At that moment. "..Gulp!" A trash can was stacked on the bodyguard''s head. When his vision was suddenly blocked, he immediately raised his gun. Kwon Taek Joo used his knee to kick that hand. The gun flew into the air and fell into Kwon Taek Joo''s hand. When the bodyguard threw the trash can off his head, Kwon Taek Joo hit him straight in the face. He groaned heavily and fell down holding his nose. It looked like his nose was broken from being punched straight in the face. Kwon Taek Joo frowned as if he was in pain, then attacked his opponent''s weak point and defeated him. Then he pulled him close to the outside wall, where he was hidden in the darkness of the building. He looked around but no one seemed to feel anything suspicious.. Now all that''s left is to climb the building. There are two ways. Descend from the roof with a rope or climb up from below.I don''t know if it''s luck or not, but thanks to the grand appearance of the building, there are quite a few places to set foot. While the front had to spend a lot of effort to ensure security, the back was extremely negligent. How lucky. Then let''s climb up. Kwon Taek Joo rolled up his shirt sleeve and took his watch out of his sleeve. He pointed the front of the watch toward the roof and pressed the button on the side. A nylon rope bounced across the space and shot up high. He pulled hard on the rope to check. The entire rope became tense as if it was clamped somewhere. Kwon Taek Joo pressed the side button again. Immediately after that, the motor inside the watch starts and the wire is wound to a certain length. He began to climb the outside wall like he was climbing a mountain, putting all his weight on his left arm. Even though I slipped a few times because the shoe sole was slippery, it wasn''t a big problem. On the contrary, the increasing gravity as he climbed higher was what made him uncomfortable. The watch exerted strong pressure on his wrist. It wouldn''t be strange if his left wrist suddenly fell off. It''s a nylon line commonly used to catch large bluefin tuna, so it won''t break easily. Of course, there are always exceptions. Even if the rope is strong, its strength cannot be guaranteed if it is repeatedly rubbed by sharp gold ornaments. And this is the moment. Suddenly a sound like a broken bowstring entered his ears. At the same time, Kwon Taek Joo''s left arm, which had been stretched painfully, suddenly became loose. "...!" Falling. He closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the shock to come. Suddenly his vision was blocked. His entire body reflexively shivered and all his senses were tense. The hair on his head also stood up. But a while has passed and Kwon Taek Joo still doesn''t feel the pain as expected. He slowly opened his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo''s body floated in the air. As soon as the rope broke. he grabbed the third-floor window frame to avoid falling. The nylon rope supporting his body fell helplessly to the ground. Kwon Taek Joo breathed a sigh of relief. It''s dangerous. Anyway, compared to before, there was a time when he almost fell from a skyscraper nearly 110 meters high. He waited until his temporarily tense muscles and nerves gradually stabilized before climbing up to the window frame himself. After that, Kwon Taek Joo held his breath and looked around the room. "...Ha." He couldn''t hide his disappointment as soon as he got there, because the room at the end of the third floor was completely empty. There was no trace that anyone had been here. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head to look at the other rooms. Given the scale of the mansion, each room is also very large, so moving between them is not easy even when they are on the same floor. Can you find Psych Bogdanov and the two ministers within the scheduled time? As Kwon Taek Joo was trying to concentrate, a clicking sound rang in his ears. "This. Where are you?" It''s Zhenya''s voice. Only then did he remember the existence of the communication device. Kwon Taek Joo sat and rested on the windowsill for a while and sighed. "I''m just wasting my time." "If you''ve had fun playing around, now prick up your ears and listen." What is he saying? Kwon Taek Joo was about to ask again when suddenly there seemed to be the sound of the door opening. The sound of the door closing was also heard clearly. Although he didn''t know what was going on, Kwon Taek Joo instinctively lowered his breathing and focused on the signs he could feel. In addition to the sound of doors opening and closing, there seemed to be whispers of conversation. There were definitely 3 people talking, each of them had a different tone of voice. But the voice transmitted through the communication device is different from the real voice. So it''s difficult to confirm whether Psych Bogdanov is there or not. Kwon Taek Joo decided to listen to their private conversation a little more. "How is the progress of SS-29?" "Waiting for news from Sonchev. They said they were looking for experts to solve SS-29''s errors. It seems he''s quite busy, especially since he didn''t attend the party today. Sonchev said he would contact me soon, so let''s wait and see." "What does North Korea say about this error?" "They said this was an unexpected incident. There were no such errors during the experimental study." A satisfied smile appeared on Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. In Russia, the designation ''SS number'' is mainly used to refer to intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs for short. For example, the official name of ''Satan'', said to be the most powerful ICBM of the former Soviet era, is ''SS-18''. Therefore, there is a high possibility that the ''SS-29'' they are talking about is a similar type of nuclear weapon. In addition, the ''Sonchev'' mentioned in the conversation is a Slavic mafia group. The weapon known as ''SS-29'' appears to be in the hands of that company. After all, he was probably closely related to the Bogdanov family. Otherwise, there would be no reason to hold an event like today at the Bogdanov mansion. Furthermore, it seems that even North Korea is involved in the development of this weapon. Could ''SS-29'' be ''Anastasia''? "What about the moves of the Americans?" "It''s still very quiet. We got rid of the mouse that snuck in, so maybe they were more cautious, but what difference did it make? They''re still in a situation where they can''t claim the body." If it was a rat that snuck in, were they talking about Morgan''s death? Nuclear weapons being secretly developed in Russia, North Korean intervention, US surveillance and spies eliminated. Every situation is correct. But that''s just speculation, there''s still no concrete evidence. The conversation stopped for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo heard the door open and close. Did someone just leave the room? He vaguely speculated, but Zhenya recounted the situation in the room. "Bogdanov has left the room. Looks like he''s about to get a phone call." Kwon Taek Joo said "Ah" and tilted his head. A question that he hadn''t realized while he was eavesdropping suddenly popped into his head. Where is Zhenya anyway? How could he know Psych Bogdanov''s movements so clearly? "What just happened, how did you know that?" "Well, just now there was a girl named Olga who said she would take me around the mansion. Is there any reason to refuse? So I followed and inserted a listening device into the keyhole of the room where they gathered." ''Olga'' is the youngest daughter of Visarion Romanovich. Olga Vissarionovna. At this point, Kwon Taek Joo was more curious about Zhenya''s identity than ''Anastasia''. What the hell was he doing, being invited to a party like this and wandering around haphazardly inside the heavily guarded Bogdanov family mansion? "Where are you now?" "Control room in the basement." "What are you doing there?" "I''m watching someone..." Zhenya paused for a moment then continued. "...Someone almost fell from the third floor." There was a slight laugh in his voice. Kwon Taek Joo immediately turned around to look for something. Not long after, he saw a surveillance camera installed in the corner of the wall outside. He raised his middle finger towards the sparkling lens without hesitation. Immediately after, a loud laugh rang out from the other end of the communication device. Zhenya smiled excitedly for a moment then asked again in surprise. "Why are you hanging there?" Kwon Taek Joo didn''t answer, there was nothing to explain. He looked at the clock and it was almost 3 am. The reason Psych Bogdanoy left was because of a phone call. Is it an important call that needs to take priority over work? Kwon Taek Joo suddenly remembered part of the conversation he had just heard earlier. "The phone call that Psych went to receive, was it from Sonchev?" "Let''s see, I don''t know either. But it''s okay to test it. When visiting the mansion earlier, I saw a landline phone at the end of the hallway on the second floor. There''s one in Bogdanov''s office, too. Of course, the two lines were different so calls could only be received directly at his office." "But is there a way to receive calls?" Kwon Taek Joo asked while looking down. The place Zhenya mentioned was not far from his current location. As long as you open the door to the room downstairs, it will be right in front of you. The important thing is probably to see if there is protection there or not, but the approach doesn''t seem to be very difficult. "Uhm. If you can move from where you are to there in 8 seconds." Looks like the line is connected. What matters is timing. All Kwon Taek Joo had to do was get to the phone within eight seconds and pick up the receiver in the hallway at the same time as Psych Bogdanov picked up the receiver in the office. Of course, it''s easy to say, but if you deviate even a little, it will be very troublesome. Kwon Taek Joo nodded towards the CCTV then took out a piece of gum and put it in his mouth. He stood up and put his feet on the window frame, as if the wall clinging to his back was pushing his body down. Kwon Taek Joo did not have time to prepare safety equipment. 8 seconds is not a very long time. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and jumped straight down. As soon as he fell, he caught something. It was the window frame on the second floor. His knuckles, wrists, and even elbows were all sore from the fall, but he still gritted his teeth and climbed up. 3 seconds passed before he landed safely on the window frame. "This is quite good, isn''t it?" Zhenya watched the situation and chuckled. While Kwon Taek Joo was struggling to do everything, he was happily sitting and looking at the computer screen. He continued to ignore him and took out a lighter. At first glance, it is a regular Zippo lighter. But when Kwon Taek Joo opened the lid, a long and thin tube like a screwdriver appeared. He bent it and turned it on. A ray of light flashed at the end of the tube. Kwon Taek Joo placed the chewing gum on the glass door and then used the flame of the lighter to draw a circle around it. Then, he took the piece of gum and gently pulled it out, a round piece of glass was cut out without making any sound. He gently placed it on the window sill, then reached into the circle and unlocked it. The window opened with a click. After looking around once, Kwon Taek Joo walked inside. He walked like a cat, gingerly and quickly approached the door, then put his ear close to the door and carefully listened to the activities outside. It''s so quiet. Kwon Taek Joo quietly opened the door and went out. He turned his head to the right and saw the table at the end of the hallway. The phone Zhenya mentioned was also on there. Just as he was about to walk towards the table, Zhenya''s voice rang in his ears again. "I will give a signal so please synchronize properly." Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the receiver and nodded. Just then, Zegna started counting from the other end of the radio. "Three." He took a deep breath. "Two." Kwon Taek Joo looked back again and checked to see if anyone was approaching. "One." As soon as the counting sound came, power was transmitted to the hand holding the receiver. "Hear it." Kwon Taek Joo picked up the receiver immediately. Absolutely no sound at all. Not only was the other side of the phone silent, but Zhenya also didn''t say anything. It seems that no one other than Kwon Taek Joo himself is holding the receiver. His mouth was dry. Are you wrong again? Kwon Taek Joo held the stethoscope tightly and waited for a sound. Is it the sound of the wind blowing? Without warning, Psych Bogdanov''s voice rang out from the other end of the receiver. "Right on time. Just when I was talking about that." "I just made an agreement with that party." "So how''s it going?" "I will send a technician from North Korea." "This is the good news among the news I have heard. So when will it be sent?" "We will depart tomorrow. Probably going to Moscow the day after tomorrow." "You have to be careful not to let the rats follow you like last time." "This time he will disguise himself as a Chinese tourist so even Americans will have a hard time recognizing him." "Continue to follow. Don''t forget to report the situation regularly" "Yes, of course." The call was quickly disconnected. The conversation is said in a vague manner and avoids direct mention. This probably means they are being cautious. Thanks to that. Kwon Taek Joo''s confidence was strengthened. He was still holding the stethoscope. Kwon Taek Joo planned to wait until Psych hung up first. But at that moment, a roar from nowhere came from the communication device in his ear. For a moment, a pain as if being stabbed with an awl penetrated his ear and brain. Kwon Taek Joo melted down and hugged his head as if it was about to explode. He immediately pulled out his communication device and threw it away, but the echo of that loud noise continued to echo in his head. His forehead was drenched in cold sweat and a chill ran down his spine. In utter confusion, even his vision was blurred and his heart was pounding. I don''t understand why the communication equipment that was working normally suddenly had problems. If it was this loud, Psych Bogdanov would have heard it too. Damn, the bad prediction has come true. A gunshot suddenly rang out outside the mansion. Because of the recent chaos, Zhenya also seemed to have been discovered by the security guard. First of all, you have to avoid it. "...Damned." Kwon Taek Joo barely had any strength left to stand up. His legs trembled without strength. He held his aching head and tried to run down the hallway and his mind still hadn''t returned to normal. He couldn''t immediately find a way out of the situation, and he didn''t know where to run. He just ran blindly. Chapter 14 - 2.1 Twilight: Do you have abs? Chapter 14: 2.1 Twilight: Do you have abs?"Please take good care of mom. I trust you guys." Dad always says that every time he leaves the house. To little boy Kwon Taek Joo, that greeting was strange. I don''t know why, but it wouldn''t be surprising if Dad never came back. And in fact, Dad''s greeting each morning became his last. His mother sobbed in front of his father''s portrait. Kwon Taek Joo took a step back before that pitiful cry. He was suddenly afraid. At that time, seeing his mother become a stranger shocked Kwon Taek Joo more than the despair of not being able to see his father again. His brother is different. Even though he wasn''t an adult yet, he was more determined than anyone there. As if he had been preparing for a long time, he dutifully took care of his family. It was he who comforted his mother and took care of the food. After the funeral, he was also not swayed by the expectations, worries and responsibilities of those around him. He is an upright and upright person. For her mother, her older brother is someone she can trust and rely on, and for her younger brother Kwon Taek Joo, he is a comforting, protective shade. Thanks to that, he never had to feel the absence of his father. The interaction between the two brothers is not much, partly because of the six-year age difference, partly because his brother is often away from home because of work. The two weren''t particularly close, but they weren''t strangers either. The two brothers lived like that. It''s rare for two people to contact each other unless something special happens. So one day, Kwon Taek Joo was surprised to receive a phone call from his brother. He had a feeling something was wrong, but his brother just called to ask. During the conversation, he did not mention any special stories. "If I leave the country this time, I probably won''t be able to return for two months. Please take good care of my mother for me." The conversation in the end was no different from normal, but Kwon Taek Joo still felt strangely uncomfortable and even he couldn''t find the reason. It was probably just a coincidence, because even after a while, nothing happened to his brother and his family. Kwon Taek Joo quickly shook off the insecurity in his heart. Accidents always happen suddenly without warning, It came as a shock only after he had relaxed his mind. Same thing that day. A call came in late at night. Even though he heard clearly what the other person was saying, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t believe it. He thought he was having a nightmare. He did not know how he arrived at the announced location. Both mother and Kwon Taek Joo were not conscious. When the two arrived, there were many people gathered there. They are soldiers, bereaved family members, reporters and curious onlookers. The memories after that are no longer clear. All Kwon Taek Joo could do was sit there dazed in the chaos of despair, sadness, and anger mixed together. He took a nap while tending the altar. Sleeping or waking up is no longer his will. Amidst the dreams, the figures of his father and brother appeared. The two of them repeated the same words as if they already knew what was going to happen. He hated those repeated requests. He covered his ears and they started scolding him to answer quickly. Both take the form of the moment of death, an incomplete and haunting image. When Kwon Taek Joo woke up in a daze, his mother came and sat next to him. Contrary to fears, the mother who fainted after seeing her brother''s body still maintained her usual demeanor. At least it seems that way. She held Kwon Taek Joo''s hand tightly when he had a nightmare and gently stroked his sweaty hair. "Now I can only live by looking at you." In the mother''s tired eyes, a determination suddenly flashed. ¡ª¡ª Sear?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and opened his eyes. Thin eyelashes trembled in the open vision. A vibration continuously hit his head. Dizziness too. The surface of the object in contact with his skin was cold and hard, like a glass window. He slowly closed his eves and then opened them, the scene outside the car window passed quickly. Scattered buildings, abandoned cars along the road, dense but bare trees, it looks like a city made of snow. Still on the ship? No. he could no longer feel the noise or vibration characteristic of the wheels running on the railway. But he still moved regardless of his will. It''s just that Kwon Taek Joo didn''t remember switching to another means of transportation midway. "Are you awake?" While he was still trying to understand the situation, a familiar voice rang out. Kwon Taek Joo made eye contact with the man sitting in the driver''s seat through the rearview mirror. Just look at his curled eyes to know who he is. Who else, it''s Zhenya. "What is this... Ugh!" Kwon Taek Joo groaned because of the dull pain in his spine. He unconsciously put his hand on the back of his neck and felt a bandage there. The last memory vaguely appeared. He was attacked by a group of two people while searching for the missing Hong Yeo Wook. Have you been unconscious since then? How long has it been, how did you get off the train, are you in the car and where are you going now? Kwon Taek Joo cannot guess anything. He stared at the rearview mirror as if looking for an explanation. "A lot happened while you were sleeping." Zhenya blinked again, his tone sounding humming. Kwon Taek Joo just glared in disapproval at the bastard who looked quite happy but didn''t say anything else. He was so curious about what happened while unconscious that such teasing didn''t bother him. But Zhenya still did not clearly resolve Kwon Taek Joo''s doubts. "You don''t remember anything, do you?" "No problem." "Yes, that''s good, but remembering it clearly would be embarrassing." "Stop beating around the bush and say it properly." "Well, I won''t refuse if you want to embarrass yourself more. I went back to my room and couldn''t find you. The bathroom was empty. I waited for a few minutes and you didn''t come back, nor could I contact you.", I found it strange so I went to find him myself. And guess what, you were lying in front of the bathroom door." "...Hong Yeo Wook suddenly disappeared so I went to look for him and was attacked by them. Those two guys seemed to be in the same group. Did you see their faces?" "Let''s see. Should I say I saw it?" "If you see it then you see it, if not then you haven''t seen it yet. Why do you keep answering vaguely?" "I should have taken the time to look closely. It was all crushed." It''s unclear why Kwon Taek Joo believes that Zhenya played an important role in making things like this. He saw this partner with his own eyes before collapsing. What kind of enthusiasm and sympathy do you expect from him? It''s just that he found something interesting after a long time. Kwon Taek Joo gave him a mocking look. "That''s legitimate defense, just legitimate defense." Zhenya explained in his characteristic superficial tone. Now Kwon Taek Joo no longer believes in his shameless justification. "You must have determined their identities before dealing with them, right? Is it true that they were sent by Bogdanov?" Kwon Taek Joo silently expected it, but Zhenya immediately affirmed that this was not the case. The answer that followed was even more surprising. "They''re skinheads. You know, right? People who want to create a world just for white people." "..What?" "You were attacked by those people." No way. Certainly one name in that group is Hong Yeo Wook. It must have been him. because even though he searched all the train compartments, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t find him anywhere. And as soon as they confronted him, he attacked him without hesitation, so it was definitely because Hong Yeo Wook discovered that he was being followed. That guy in black even has the newest gun, so there''s nothing left to doubt. But was their true identity simply skinheads and was Kwon Taek Joo accidentally attacked by them there at that time? This is Russia so it''s not unreasonable at all. It''s just that the timing was so random that it was suspicious. Assuming Zhenya''s words are completely true, there are still doubts. If Hong Yeo Wook wasn''t one of those two guys, then where would he have disappeared to? From the night before until morning, the train did not stop for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo began searching for Hong Yeo Wook and looked around the ship before arriving in Irkutsk. The only hiding place for Hong Yeo Wook, who disappeared in an instant, could only be a locked bathroom. That''s not the only strange thing, either. While searching for Hong Yeo Wook, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even meet Zhenya. If Hong Yeo Wook and Zhenya had nothing to do with the gang that attacked him, then where were the two of them during that time? Can people hide under the floor of a moving train or hang from the ceiling of a train car? Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes became sharper as he looked in the rearview mirror. "Where were you then?" "Are you doubting me? Or are you complaining that I Wasn''t there when you were beaten?" "I searched all over the ship looking for Hong Yeo Wook. But neither he nor you were anywhere to be found." "You searched all over the ship... Is that true? You never showed up where I was." "What do you mean?" "You didn''t go to the management office." "Management department... what?" Kwon Taek Joo was stunned for a moment as if he had been stabbed in a weak spot. Of course he didn''t go to the management office. Rather, from the beginning he did not suspect that place. Unless the manager is a woman, there seems to be no reason for Zhenya to stop by. But if he was really there, that would explain why Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t find him even though he searched the entire ship. But this does not mean that doubts completely disappear. "What were you doing there?" "Unlike the others who only worried about sleeping and forgetting their tasks, I followed Hong Yeo Wook all night. That guy suddenly left in the middle? Usually at that time, he would read a book or do something because the train hadn''t arrived yet. I felt a bit suspicious so I went to his train car and met the woman in charge there. I asked if she had seen him, and she answered quickly. Hong Yeo Wook said he wanted to change the destination from Irkutsk to Moscow and asked how to meet the manager." If you want to change your itinerary when traveling by cross border train, you can do so by meeting with the person in charge to process it. This method is often used when you go further than your original destination. But Hong Yeo Wook bought a ticket to Moscow from the beginning. Even if something goes wrong, there''s no reason to see the manager unless you want to prolong the journey. All he has to do is get off the train at the desired location and be reimbursed for the remaining cost of the journey there. The strangest thing is that while he has to keep his identity a secret, he is obsessed with refunding tickets that are not worth much. A premonition flashed through Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. He immediately stared at the rearview mirror. His eyes seemed to be checking to see if his guess was correct or not. Zhenya nodded gently. "That''s right. I was in the management office. The Bogdanovs contact was the deputy manager." Kwon laek Joo felt like he was stabbed in the back. Is contacting Hong Yeo Wook in the middle of something so meaningful? He''d thought they''d put a contact on board. Of course, from the beginning he also considered the possibility that the contact could be disguised as a normal tourist. He also did not rule out the possibility that they could pretend to be flight attendants on the ship. But no matter how clever he was, he could not imagine that even public officials would be manipulated for their convenience. What a surprise. People who are flying are inherently faster than people who are running. The strength suddenly disappeared from Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulders, which were stiff with tension. "So how is he? How could you have missed him?" "If so then yes, if not then no." The situation is getting serious but everything is still vague and unclear. Kwon Taek Joo lost all patience and got angry. "Spit it out." "The conclusion is that Hong Yeo Wook did not get off in Irkutsk." "So what?" "After contacting the conductor, he took off in a prepared helicopter and evaporated from the moving train." "Is that okay then?" "Nothing is impossible if you give up half your life." Certainly, it''s not physically impossible. Kwon Taek Joo was just confused because it was something he had never thought about. Hong Yeo Wook used the excuse to change the itinerary to go to the management office. The manager was the contact person who promptly called for a waiting helicopter. Adjusting the speed of the train so that Hong Yeo Wook can board the train safely will not be too difficult. At that time, the train was approaching Irkutsk, so no passengers were suspicious even though the train was moving slower than usual. Including Kwon Taek Joo. Hong Yeo Wook left by helicopter while the train continued to head to Irkutsk. Even if some pursuer belatedly found Hong Yeo Wook, he would have disappeared long ago. The ship''s contact person could have just returned to Moscow as if nothing had happened. All of this happened while Kwon Taek Joo was hanging out in the restroom area. His mood suddenly dropped. He thought he might miss Hong Yeo Wook, but not like this. But not always. We can''t let things end so miserably. With that frustrated mood, he spoke harshly to Zhenya. "Are you just standing there watching?" "But what else? Should I grab the flying helicopter and pull it down?" It sounds absurd, but somehow that seems possible with Zhenya. It''s easy to imagine him catching a helicopter like he''s catching a dragonfly. And it''s hard to believe that this kid missed Hong Yeo Wook right before his eyes. He was not the type to let his targeted prey get away. Unless he intentionally let it go. At least that''s the Zhenya that Kwon Taek Joo knows up to this point. As if to confirm the thoughts in his mind, Zhenya admitted that he wanted to release Hong Yeo Wook. "I thought there was no need to catch him right away, so I left him alone. There was no need to fight the snake." "Why are you so confident?" Zhenya picked up something and threw it at Kwon Taek Joo. He caught it and realized it was a location tracking device. A red dot is flashing at the coordinates on the screen. "What is this?" "My confidence." "Did you install a location tracking device on Hong Yeo Wook?" "But this shallow method will probably lose its effectiveness quickly." "Why?" "I fed him it." "...Feeding?" "I''ve been watching what he''s been eating for the past few days. He''s only eaten a little bread. It seems that Russian food doesn''t suit Hong Yeo Wook''s taste very much. When the Asian people around him started to enjoy it." He seemed quite interested in Chinese instant noodles. So I asked the lady selling snacks a favor.'''' Did Zhenya put a tiny location tracking device in instant noodles and sell it to Hong Yeo Wook? He''s only eaten dry bread these past few days, so he must be craving soup. If the soup is spicy enough, it will be difficult to be wary. For a Korean like Kwon Taek Joo, this story is completely understandable. He hated to admit it, but Zhenya was right this time. If Hong Yeo Wook is stopped by force, Bogdanov''s side will also know of Kwon Taek Joo''s presence. If so, the original plan may have to be changed to maintain secrecy. Instead, it seemed much more effective to let Hong Yeo Wook escape as planned and chase after him. The most important goal of this operation is to determine the identity of ''SS-29, not to hinder Hong Yeo Wook''s communication with Bogdanov. Zhenya suddenly said "One day is enough". This also means that the time allowed is only one day. When Hong Yeo Wook digests all the food, the navigation device becomes meaningless. Kwon Taek Joo only hopes that Hong Yeo Wook will meet ''SS-29'' before that time. The target continues to move southeast. The sign outside the window said that was the direction to Lake Baikal. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know if it was the real destination or if they were trying to change the route again. Anyway, fortunately, the gap between him and Hong Yeo Wook is gradually narrowing. The car carrying two people rushed through a large field. There was not a single person on the road, let alone a single car passing by. Is it because your head is temporarily anemic? Even though he was not in such a situation, he suddenly felt dizzy. Dense clumps of cypress trees appeared on both sides of the road. The quiet scene became even more desolate because snow covered the dry branches. No matter where Kwon Taek Joo looked, he only saw a picture of pure white snow and trees. As soon as we left the cypress forest, an endless snowfield opened up. The piled up snow made the boundary of the road unclear. The surrounding space was wide open but made his heart uneasy. Kwon Taek Joo felt a sense of despair, as if he would never be able to get anywhere. He kept looking for signs of life. Not long after, he saw a herd of sheep. Their fur is especially long and shaggy because they live in cold areas. Wooden houses are occasionally seen with steep roofs that help withstand large amounts of snow. The car drove non-stop through the vast snowfield, Kwon Taek Joo began to feel reality. The two of them are now in the middle of Siberia. "Is your head okay? I pinned it back." Zhenya suddenly asked. Kwon Taek Joo looked in the rearview mirror so their eyes immediately met. He unconsciously touched the bandage on his head. It''s unknown what hit him, but the impact was so strong that he wouldn''t have been surprised if his skull had been shattered. But there was hardly any blood on the bandage. Kwon Taek Joo isn''t sure but it looks like the stitches are pretty good. The worrying thing is who stitched this wound? Must be a doctor. Of course you have to be a doctor. Was there not a single medical staff member on that long train journey? Maybe he was taken to the hospital as soon as he arrived in Irkutsk. The more he rationalized, the more obvious the feeling of insecurity became. "Who?" "That''s me." The answer he was worried about came. The thought of being completely unconscious and in Zhenya''s hands made him feel needlessly embarrassed. Kwon Taek Joo could imagine the look on his face as he squeezed the stapler. No wonder he asked about others for no reason like that. Zhenya then continued to spout stories that weren''t even asked. What was the condition of Kwon Taek Joo''s scalp at the time of discovery, how much blood was shed, the characteristics of the weapon that hit his head, the feeling of using a stapler on raw meat, etc. Every time he said The pain he had been suppressing seemed to revive. Kwon Taek Joo has to quickly change the subject somehow. "Instead, have you greeted Louise properly?" "Who?" "Who else? The French girl is getting married. Aren''t you very pleased with her?" "Me?" Zhenya showed a silly expression. He even pointed at himself with his index finger. Why did he suddenly turn around like that? "You said you couldn''t sleep with the same person twice. But you slept with her three times." I don''t know why Kwon Taek Joo himself has to explain those things too. A dissatisfied expression appeared clearly on his face. Zhenya looked in the rearview mirror and laughed loudly. The voice muttered something extremely gentle. "Honestly, that girl is my type." "What?" "You said you like women with big and chubby breasts. Are you satisfied with that size?" So, was seducing Louise all about that? Because she fits the ideal type that Kwon Taek Joo himself talked about? The past suddenly flashed like a ray of light. On the last night on the cross-border train, he was so seduced by Zhenya and Louise that he lost his way. The image of Zhenya smiling while spraying semen on someone else''s face was still vivid in his mind. Kwon Taek Joo immediately lowered the back seat window. A cruel wind blew through the open window. His hair, headband, and collar fluttered. Amidst all that, he looked up at the distant sky and let out his anger that was about to explode. He closed his eyes once and then slowly opened them, a fighting spirit he had never seen before burned in his eyes. "I never really saw it because you hid it so well. Do you have abs?" Kwon Taek Joo clenched his molars, as if he was squeezing out every word. Zhenya suddenly glanced at the rearview mirror. "So suddenly?" "When this job is finished I will personally shred it." The declaration of war against evil continues to resound. Zhenya was silent for a moment then burst out laughing. The rest was serious but he didn''t consider it a threat at all. It took a while for him to stop laughing and roll up the back window. "I''m looking forward to it." The corner of his mouth still drew a curve. Chapter 15 - 2.2 Twilight: The only room Chapter 15: 2.2 Twilight: The only roomLake Baikal, the green heart of Siberia, boasts a long history spanning 25 million years. The area alone is up to 31,500 square kilometers, with a diameter of 636 kilometers and a circumference of 2,200 kilometers. There are 22 islands in this giant lake, the largest and only inhabited island is Olkhon Island. If you want to go to Olkhon Island, you need to time it properly, because crossing the river is only allowed in winter, when the surface of the giant lake is frozen solid, or in the middle of summer, when the ice has completely melted. In summer, people can cross the river by boat, but in winter like this one can cross directly by car. Zhenya hurtled across the seemingly endless frozen lake. The ice surface was uneven, so he should have gone around in circles, but he still stubbornly kept going straight. As a result, the car body continuously vibrates. Even in that situation, Kwon Taek Joo did not complain and remained silent. Although at first glance it looked like the car was driving on part of the road, it was actually lying on a surface of water so deep that it could not be measured. So even though the ice is very thick, the tension in my heart is inevitable. Luckily, the worrying accident did not happen until the two arrived at the Olkhon Island pier. It seems that even the world''s famous Lake Baikal cannot overcome the extreme cold of -50 degrees Celsius. Kwon Taek Joo stepped out of the car for a moment and looked back at the road he had just passed. The world covered with white snow was silent as if dead. Everything seemed to stop. I don''t know if it was because he was overwhelmed by the beautiful scene that appeared before his eyes, but he couldn''t think or feel anything for a moment From where he was standing to the dock, there was no road that could be called a road. Only the wheel marks of the cars ahead were engraved in all directions. The place you are going is the road. The two people''s car also pioneered a new route by crossing the unmarked snow. The target has been somewhere northwest of Olkhon Island for quite some time. While crossing the mountainside following the flashing red dot, Kwon Taek Joo saw a villa in the distance. It looks smaller than the Bogdanov Mansion but has an eye-catching appearance considering the size of the island. The car was parked near the villa. The red dot on the position tracker and the origin completely overlap. It was obvious that Hong Yeo Wook was there. Kwon Taek Joo stuck his face out between the driver''s seat and passenger seat and observed the villa. "Is that there?" "Maybe." Two people checked the CCTV cameras installed everywhere. There are no blind spots at all. "We can''t just rush in." "Why not?" Kwon Taek Joo looked at Zhenya with a puzzled expression. Why not anything? Did he not know that''s why he asked? The villa is located on high ground on Olkhon Island. Below it is a steep cliff. The wind blowing around the island continuously pushed up the edge of that cliff. That means intrusion from above is not possible. At first glance, there are no air ducts or ventilation holes to penetrate. Surveillance cameras are closely arranged at the main gate and on the walls, some are equipped with electronic guns capable of wireless control under the cameras. "You''ve seen it and you still ask like that? I guess you have nine lives?" Kwon Taek Joo was intentionally sarcastic, but Zhenya''s chin suddenly raised. His expression also became arrogant. See, that''s not a compliment. He tried to protest with his facial expression but to no avail. Kwon Taek Joo quickly looked away from the bastard who was spreading his shoulders wide. Seeing him arrogant like that just made him feel embarrassed. "We already know where Hong Yeo Wook is so that''s enough. It would be crazy to attack directly, so I think it''s a good idea to quickly review the situation around here." Zhenya said "Okay" then turned the steering wheel and started driving somewhere without mentioning the destination. He didn''t even use the navigation system but still drove without hesitation on the unmarked road. Zhenya seemed quite familiar with the geography of this place. Kwon Taek Joo observed the red dot getting farther and farther away when the car suddenly tilted to one side, because it was stopped suddenly on an inclined slope. Did an animal just jump out? Kwon Taek Joo guessed and sat up straight. Zhenya suddenly opened the car door. "LH24" The next words became even more ambiguous. Did he suddenly intend to set up camp in a place like this? Kwon Taek Joo looked around but still didn''t see anyone. He looked at Zhenya while hugging the passenger seat. He was about to close the door and go to the trunk of the car, but suddenly stopped for a moment when he saw his eyes as if begging for an explanation. Then he bent down to look at Kwon Taek Joo and teased. Sear?h the N?vel(F)ire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I won''t eat you, so get out of the car." Every chance I get, I tease him. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t stay silent when he heard those sounds. He grumbled as he went out. Strong winds that he didn''t feel in the car blew from all directions. All he was wearing was a loose shirt and a jacket so his shoulders automatically shrunk. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his molars because it seemed like if he opened his mouth, his teeth would automatically collide. At this point, it was surprising that his heart didn''t freeze. Meanwhile, Zhenya took a fur coat out of the trunk and put it on. Even if you hunt a live animal and skin it, it cannot compare to the fur of that coat. While Kwon Taek Joo clung tightly to the door without moving, Zhenya passed him and went somewhere. After a while he noticed that Kwon Taek Joo did not follow him and turned back. Facing that silent urging, he followed step by step. Climbing back up a snow-covered hill was not easy, as the two had to face a strong wind blowing from the top of the hill. Even when trying to step up, Kwon Taek Joo often slipped on the snow and fell down. He was out of breath and breathed continuously, but only the cold wind and ice particles mixed in the air interfered with his breathing. Recalling his days in the special forces team, Kwon Taek Joo also climbed over the hills ready to face any challenge. It wasn''t long before he realized Zhenya''s intentions. There is a guest house right at the foot of the hill. The number of rooms may not seem like a lot, but in the current situation, even that is quite good. While Kwon Taek Joo was still hesitant, a cold wind blew. He, who was following Zhenya like a cow being led to the slaughterhouse, quickly passed him and entered the guest house first. Right at that moment the owner was sitting at the front desk. He seemed quite confused by the intrusion of a stranger wearing only a thin shirt and a bandage on his head in the current harsh cold. "How did you get here?" "Ph... room..." "Have you made a reservation?" At that moment, Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth stiffened and he stuttered as if he was seeing a ghost. He trembled and had difficulty answering. "No. I didn''t make a reservation. Are there any rooms available?" "Because it''s winter, there are still rooms available, but 100% reservations are required. One room is enough, right?" "No. Two. It must be two rooms." Kwon Taek Joo emphasized again and again. Just in case the guesthouse owner didn''t understand his pronunciation, Kwon Taek Joo stretched out his index and middle fingers. He didn''t want to have to be in the same room as Zhenya anymore. If it''s in combat and there''s no other way, he can endure it, but when it comes to resting, he wants to feel a little more comfortable. But the guesthouse owner''s reaction was not very positive. "Oh," he said with a low sigh. That pitiful look glanced at Kwon Taek Joo. No, that was Kwon Taek Joo''s own mistake. That must be the case. All his nerves were focused on the motel owner''s lips. Immediately, the door opened and Zhenya walked in. His fur coat wiggled its fibers delicately as if it were still alive. And then the homeowner''s desperate answer rang out. "There''s only one room left." The room assigned was extremely narrow. There is a table for two right in front of the door and a bed right next to it. That is all. There is no minibar, wardrobe or at least a shelf or place to store luggage. The only consolation was that the only bed was a bunk bed. The two sat facing each other in silence for a long while. Kwon Taek Joo glanced around and meaninglessly stopped his gaze somewhere in the corner of the room. He thought that if he just got off the train, he wouldn''t have to be in the same space as Zhenya anymore. All you have to do is get a private room and since you won''t be taking the train across the border anymore, you just need to be a little patient. But in the end, the two of them had to stay together for a few more days like this. Kwon Taek Joo was tired both mentally and physically, he just wanted to close his eyes for a while but because of that boy he couldn''t rest assured. The warmth had completely disappeared from the cup. There''s still nothing to say between the two of them. The atmosphere gradually turned from awkward to heavy. Kwon Taek Joo knows how to be comfortable. You just need to trust Zhenya. His words, actions, and thoughts are all unusual, but he doesn''t know what he will do next so he won''t be able to betray Kwon Taek Joo. After rationalizing it several times, he shook his head. Saying it is easy, but doing it is not easy at all. His instincts were constantly on guard. Kwon Taek Joo also unconsciously followed Zhenya''s every move to look for loopholes. That''s why he quickly got tired of being with him. even though he knew that now the two of them were on the same side. Is it because he is an opponent that Kwon Taek Joo himself cannot defeat? Every time Zhenya did something crazy, his heart pounded. Now, even though he is a colleague, he doesn''t know when and how he will take off that mask. Kwon Taek Joo has met many people from all walks of life since becoming an agent. Due to complex interests, many people gradually degenerate into cunning, but rarely is anyone absolutely evil. Everyone has their own beliefs and acts according to those beliefs, it''s just that their own justice may be unfair to others. But Zhenya is not like that. He said he would make huge profits if he got ''Anastasia''. But in reality, he doesn''t seem to be controlled by money or power. Even in a situation where live bullets were fired, unable to rest properly and continuing the tedious chase without positive results, he still seemed happy. Zhenya is like a child addicted to a spy game. He doesn''t care how much the game costs or how many people die. A person who only cares about excitement is him. Zhenya will retreat mercilessly once current interest cools. To end things neatly, he could have pointed the gun at Kwon Taek Joo himself without hesitation. That''s why every day, every hour, every minute with Zhenya, Kwon Taek Joo is as tense as walking on thin ice. "I can hear you rolling your eyes from all the way here." Zhenya suddenly hit the weak point. It stung, but Kwon Taek Joo didn''t show it. "I''m just trying to organize my thoughts. This and that..." He pretended not to know and made excuses that were not excuses. Zhenya nodded in a fake "Ah ha." The sarcastic smile on his lips remained the same. A face so beautiful that he naturally turned his gaze there, but when their eyes met, Kwon Taek Joo felt strange. That''s because of his probing eyes. It''s like a reptile narrowing its pupils and obsessively observing each other''s expressions, eyes, and actions. If he continued to be observed like that, it seemed like all his thoughts would be revealed. Kwon Taek Joo changed the subject so as not to get caught up in it. "Do you know who owns the villa where Hong Yeo Wook is staying?" "I saw the symbol engraved on the main gate of that place." Icon? Kwon Taek Joo suddenly remembered the scenery of the mansion. Just as Zhenya said, there was something embossed in the middle of the main gate. "If it''s Russian, everyone knows it''s the symbol of the Bogdanov family." If that''s true, then Kwon Taek Joo has come to the right place. He had felt like he was in a cloud because he couldn''t grasp the authenticity of ''SS-29'' let alone ''Anastasia'', but now he felt like he had finally gotten one step closer. step. Just by infiltrating the mansion, it will be possible to know whether SS.29'' is Anastasia or not. Although it is very small, that harvest is enough to be a consolation. The difficulties of the past seem to be no longer significant. Kwon Taek Joo presented his future plans with a happy mood for the first time in a long time. "Okay. Then let''s monitor every morning, noon and night to find a way to infiltrate there." This time Zhenya just nodded silently and asked again, "Are you finished?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded. He stood up as if he was waiting. He quietly watched him go straight to the door. Does his probing eves cause discomfort? Zhenya turned around before leaving. "I heard there''s a Banya here. Do you want to take a bath together?" Banya is a Russian steam bath. Kwon Taek Joo intended to refuse out of habit but was lost in thought. He had been locked in a cramped train compartment for several days and now his whole body felt very frustrated. Perhaps due to the injury, his blood didn''t seem to circulate normally, and the terrible cold made him crave a hot sauna as well. What an attractive offer. The problem is that Zhenya will also be there. Kwon Taek Joo wanted to refuse to be in a small space with that kid. Furthermore, there''s no problem if he uses banya first and I use it later. But the reason he didn''t quickly decline the invitation was because doubts were still lingering in his mind. Up until this point, Kwon Taek Joo had never seen Zhenya naked. Even during sex, only the partner is naked and he only pulls the zipper down. He was curious as to what he was trying to hide that made him so careful. And Kwon Taek Joo is also not the type of person to easily ignore the doubts that have arisen. "Sure." Chapter 16 - 2.3 Twilight: Bathing Together Chapter 16: 2.3 Twilight: Bathing TogetherSomewhat 18+ Kwon Taek Joo pours water onto the stone pechka. The hot stones spew out hot steam. The hot air quickly made it seem like he couldn''t breathe for a moment, but he quickly got used to it. His frozen body began to warm up. When sweat pours down your face, the accumulated fatigue seems to be released. There''s nothing quite as luxurious as a relaxing soak in the sauna while on duty. (Pechka is like a oven/furnace or just a source of heat) Kwon Taek Joo slowly turned his eyes to look around Banya. The scale is much smaller than what the guesthouse owners brag about. If two or three men entered at the same time, it would definitely be crowded. Currently, Kwon Taek Joo is alone so everything is fine but everything will change when Zhenya arrives. He stared at the door. Kwon Taek Joo is waiting for Zhenya. He said that it was impossible for a Russian to enter Banya without vodka and that he would stop by the kitchen. This time he won''t be able to avoid taking off his clothes. Kwon Taek Joo was excited for a moment then sighed again. He wondered why he wanted to see a man''s body so much. Zhenya was the problem from the start. I don''t understand why he''s so hesitant, there''s nothing to lose if he exposes his body a little. Kwon Taek Joo was grumbling in his heart when the door suddenly opened. Zhenya, whom he had been waiting for endlessly, walked inside. His gaze that should have been directed at his face suddenly fixed on the center. That''s because he''s too tall. As a result, Kwon Taek Joo had to face his goods first. He unconsciously frowned. Zhenya''s genitals are no different from weapons. It''s not even erect yet but it''s already so big? Finally, Kwon Taek Joo felt like he could understand why the people who fought with him were screaming like they were about to die. He forced himself to raise his head. Zhenya smiled strangely, as if he was reading his thoughts. Kwon Taek Joo tried to hide his confusion and pretended he was also calm. Zhenya walked to the opposite seat. A mass of red flesh was clearly visible between the thighs of the man standing upright. He could feel its texture and weight at a glance. Kwon Taek Joo was trying to ignore it and turn his head away, but then by chance, his balls fell on the chair. Kwon Taek Joo''s eves instinctively followed the movement of that object. Zhenya didn''t pay attention to Kwon Taek Joo''s eves that were clearly focused on his crotch and just handed him the glass of wine. It''s time for you to stop before things get awkward. "Once it''s up, it has to be plugged into any hole." Kwon Taek Joo''s eves immediately looked up. Zhenya smiled and poured him vodka, then filled his glass and quenched his thirst. Kwon Taek Joo tilted his glass and scanned every corner of Zhenya''s body. His body is a bit unreal. It was both slim and toned, as if someone had crafted it meticulously, considering the entire layout carefully. All muscles are placed in the most beautiful positions like a deliberate work of art. Straight collar bones fit well with broad shoulders, and prominent wrists and elbows create strong yet elegant lines. Clearly divided abs are reminiscent of shark fins in perfect detail, as if they had been there since birth. Her skin was porcelain white and smooth, her whole body looked solid, as if she were to stab her with a needle, it would break. There were no scars on that body, nor were there any skin diseases or allergies. If you look at it like that, it''s hard to guess why until now Zhenya still keeps his skin hidden inside. Kwon Taek Joo felt a bit surprised and disappointed. "What is it? I thought you were hiding something big, because you''re being so careful." "Do you crave my body that much? How sinister." There is nothing unspeakable about this mine. Kwon Taek Jo mechanically raised the corners of his mouth and poured a bowl of water into the pechka. White steam rises with a clicking sound. Zhenya''s shining appearance was momentarily obscured. When the steam rises excessively, sweat begins to pour out like rain. Zhenya''s body was also soaked. Every time he inhales, his shoulders expand, causing the muscles throughout his body to contract and move. They stretch and intertwine with each other as if each of them were an independent entity. Even though there wasn''t much difference from Kwon Taek Joo''s body, he still couldn''t take his eyes off him. Zhenya closed his eyes and tilted his head back, Sweat slid from his chin down his long, slender neck. Transparent drops like small marbles lay on the cheekbones and soon fell and curled over the neckline. I don''t understand why these things make Kwon Taek Joo feel nervous. sea??h th§× Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Have you been looking too obvious? Zhenya suddenly opened his eyes. Immediately the two people''s eyes locked together. No, exactly he was looking down at Kwon Taek Joo''s body, not his face. Transparent blue pupils slowly rolled under wet eyelashes. His whole body suddenly became itchy, as if a snake''s tongue was licking his skin. Kwon Taek Joo covered his head with the scarf that was wrapped around his neck. He also leaned forward to hide that naked gaze. Meanwhile, Zhenya poured another glass of vodka. Kwon Taek Joo''s lips stand out under the veil. Perhaps because of the heat, his lips were redder than usual, he was constantly sweating and panting. Is it because of the vodka that his plump lower lip suddenly becomes glossier? He tilted the glass, the outline of his lips creating a vague image of the tongue inside. Zhenya drank all the vodka in the glass and then licked his lower lip. He looked like a hungry predator. "What a waste..." Kwon Taek Joo raised his head when Zhenya suddenly muttered to himself. The two people''s eyes met again. That look was persistent and oppressive as soon as he received it, but now it''s hard to avoid it. The two of them kept looking at each other as if they were having a duel, then Zhenya suddenly bent down so that their faces were only half an inch apart. He squinted his eyes, looked into Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes and chuckled. "It''s his butt, attaching it to a man is such a waste." That damn beak can''t be obedient. Kwon Taek Joo picked up a birch branch and hit Zhenya in the face. Drops of water on tree branches splashed. Zhenya did not react to that backlash but just quietly raised his eyes to look at Kwon Taek Joo. Droplets of water from his hair fell to the floor. The mouth that had just opened was now tightly closed. Kwon Taek Joo thought, "It''s over." Zhenya''s eyes blinked strangely. The moment he felt danger was also the moment his wrist was grabbed tightly. Kwon Taek Joo has no time to cope. In a split second, his arm was bent backwards and his face hit the wall. With that sound, his vision began to rotate. Zhenya pressed his heavy body against Kwon Taek Joo and quietly breathed into his ear. The towel fell because of the struggle. You missed it. Zhenya''s suddenly cold face was still like a dark afterimage passing through his mind. Kwon Taek Joo tried to twist the arm that was being grabbed, but he could not overcome this man''s terrible grip, it had been like that before, and it was the same now. Zhenya didn''t say anything for a while. He just adjusted his breathing and kept looking down at Kwon Taek Joo. His gaze moved back and forth between the straight nape and strong wrist as if measuring where he should hit first. Then suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s wrist twisted harder. With self-defense instinct, his whole body tensed up, causing his thighs and buttocks to naturally shrink. Zhenya''s gaze slowly slid down his wet spine and stopped at the curve of his buttocks. His slim waist makes his round buttocks look especially outstanding. The plump flesh was even shiny from sweat. Soon, the madness in Zhenya''s eyes disappeared and was replaced by a secret desire. Zhenya without hesitation reached out towards Kwon Taek Joo''s butt. He could have grabbed it immediately, but for some reason his hand moved slowly. Zhenya''s fingertips were finally about to touch Kwon Taek Joo''s puffy ass. Kwon Taek Joo, who had been silent for a long time, shifted his weight back to throw Zhenya away. He grabbed his wrist tightly and threw it away immediately. Zhenya fell helplessly before the sudden attack. His temporary laxity created an opportunity for Kwon Taek Joo. In an instant, the person who was being thrown back became a generous colleague again. He picked up the towel that had fallen next to him and wrapped it around his neck. "Are you going to call your mother?" Zhenya smiled teasingly when Kwon Taek Joo instead walked out of Banya. He replied with an equally sarcastic tone. "Yes. I''ll tell her to scold you." Kwon Taek Joo raised his middle finger then left Banya and closed the door. A cheerful laugh rang out from inside. Mad. What''s so funny about laughing? He shook his head and headed towards the dressing room. But after a few steps he stopped. Kwon Taek Joo raised his hand and placed it on his left chest, where his heart was beating so hard it was hard to breathe. I don''t know when he had goosebumps all over his body. This time is really dangerous. If Zhenya hadn''t been distracted midway, something on his body would have broken. He is not a generous great man who can tolerate others just because the other person is a partner. If he feels uncomfortable, he will destroy anyone without the slightest hesitation. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his trembling hands into fists. This was an emotion he had never experienced in his life. One cannot understand what fear is until one faces it. So is Kwon Taek Joo. Perhaps this campaign should end as soon as possible. Completing the mission and cutting off Zhenya would be the only way for him to escape these unfamiliar emotions. Chapter 17 - 2.4 Twilight: Package of Korean spicy ramen Chapter 17: 2.4 Twilight: Package of Korean spicy ramenNo matter how you look at it, this is a crazy action. Kwon Taek Joo was thinking endlessly one early morning on the shore of a snowy lake. The weather wasn''t nice and the surroundings were covered in snow, making it impossible for him to tell where was what, but Kwon Taek Joo still decided to go cycling before the meal. If he puts his foot in the wrong place, there''s a chance his knee will immediately buckle and be unable to move. Skiing might be a lot easier at this rate, because at least in the eyes of others he wouldn''t look like a crazy person. Kwon Taek Joo grumbled for a while then a large hill appeared right before his eves. Only when he gets there can he see the mansion where Hong Yeo Wook lives. He regained his composure and pressed his foot hard on the stiff pedal. Kwon Taek Joo climbed the steep slope. It took him a long time to reach the top of the slope after the wheel continuously rolled and slid several times. He took a deep breath and considered the situation inside the villa. There was no trace of people coming or going, perhaps it had been completely wiped out by the overnight snowfall. Kwon Taek Joo turned the lens leg out. A small mechanical sound rang out along with the vision becoming three dimensional. It is a special device that can see through buildings or structures. He manipulated the tripod a little more and pulled the zoom to maximum. The mansion reminds people of a fortress. The chimney is designed to connect to the basement rather than the roof, so that steam can escape through the ground. There were a lot of windows but it was too narrow for one person to get in or out. The water supply and drainage system also faces the cliff. It seemed that to break into it one would have to climb up an upside-down cliff while fighting strong winds. An act tantamount to suicide. In short, the only entrance is the main gate. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and bit it into his mouth. Even though he didn''t light it, the tip of the cigarette burned red. Immediately. The wind speed and direction at the point where Kwon Taek Joo is standing are displayed on the glass screen by year, quarter, month and day. Although it took him a while to accept this fact, it seemed impossible to break in from the roof by helicopter or parachute. All the methods Kwon Taek Joo could think of were in vain. But it''s not like there''s no gain. After seeing with his own eyes the solidity of the ancient mansion, his suspicions became almost certain. What are they hiding that they have to build such a defensive barrier? A satisfied smile spread on Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. The more something is hidden, the higher its value. He observed the mansion for a while longer and then quickly walked down the hill. ¡ª¡ª "I''m so bored." Kwon Taek Joo ate breakfast as soon as he returned to the motel. He munched on Pelmeni and felt like he was chewing rubber. After enduring the freezing cold outside for a long time, the only reward he received was a bowl of Pelmeni. It''s warm anyway, so shouldn''t you feel a little comforted? Even if the menu changes, it doesn''t seem to be very appetizing. Anyway, it''s just lamb, herring, cabbage or potatoes. Foods that are delicious when eaten occasionally, but eaten every day will definitely be boring. Now just smelling it makes me feel like I''ve eaten it. But he was constantly hungry, so things became even more difficult. Kwon Taek Joo really craves warm and spicy soup. He rummaged through the spice cabinet but couldn''t find anything similar to chili powder. I''m so tired. Kwon Taek Joo was so hungry that his stomach hurt but he didn''t want to eat anything. He rested his chin on his arm and sighed heavily. Kwon Taek Joo had just taken a hot bath so his hair was still curly, and he was naked with only a pair of underwear. He was covered with a blanket and struggling with the Pelmeni. Zhenya walked into the kitchen. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t turn to look at him and just stabbed his fork into a piece of Pelmeni. "It''s still quiet. No special characters have appeared." He reported forcefully. Zhenya also did not respond, only something rustled in front of the stove. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally turned his head to look and suddenly opened his eyes wide, because what he was holding was none other than Korean spicy ramen noodles. Just looking at the packaging makes my mouth water. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t take his eyes off the ramen package, Zhenya gently held it up. His eyes rolled with it. Even as he tossed it from one hand to the other, his eyes still restlessly followed. Zhenya''s lips drew a long curve. "I heard Koreans would die from just one of these things. Is that true?" "Where did you get it?" "I got it from the landlord. A Korean who used to stay here gave it to him." In the eyes of the motel owner, does Zhenya look more Korean than Kwon Taek Joo himself? Why did he suddenly give that precious thing to that guy without even saying a word to me? He just stared at the ramen package and blamed the stupid landlord. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously reached out his hand. A corner of the ramen package touched his finger and made a rustling sound. As if it was some kind of signal, he suddenly reached out and aimed at the ramen package. He didn''t even care that the blanket had fallen off his shoulders. It would have been nice if Zhenya had known how to feign defeat, but he avoided it by raising the ramen packet higher. Kwon Taek Joo jumped without hesitation, his hands waving continuously as if he were blocking a ball. But that wasn''t enough for Zhenya, he raised his hands and dodged here and there. However, Kwon Taek Joo did not surrender easily. He jumped up many times, trying to catch the ramen package, but Zhenya still flexibly avoided him. "I guess Korean''s can die from this." At this point, Kwon Taek Joo also stopped attacking. He calmly smoothed his messy curly hair, took a deep breath and confidently made his request. "Give it here." "I can''t just give it away." It''s really amazing to say. Is he any different from the devil? Kwon Taek Joo was not satisfied but still secretly asked. "So what do you want?" "Nothing special, depends on your attitude." Zhenya spoke half-heartedly, then held the phone in one hand, the ramen package in the other, and read the cooking instructions. It seemed like he was trying to translate Korean using a translation app. Soon, a small pot of water was placed on the stove. Zhenya meticulously adjusted the fire and then stood with his arms crossed. Now Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were glued to the pot. Saliva oozed out from both ends of his chin. He was about to drool at any moment like a hungry puppy. Even so, he couldn''t take Zhenya''s bait. I wonder what evil request he will make. While he was still hesitating, the water began to boil. Zhenya put the soup powder into a pot of boiling water. The pungent scent begins to stimulate olfactory cells. Kwon Taek Joo pretended not to care and returned to his seat, continuing to dig into the cold Pelmeni. Maybe the brain can cause temporary hallucinations and you can trick your tongue with smell. He was so optimistic that he put a piece of Pelmeni into his mouth but only felt the greasy taste spreading, as if mocking his humble expectations. Meanwhile, Zhenya finished cooking the ramen and placed it on the table. Kwon Taek Joo''s eves quietly followed that image. That thing is not a drug. Just eating one bite is probably enough to comfort his stomach. The moment the Korean spicy taste touches the tip of the tongue, even this accumulated feeling of fatigue seems to disappear. He stealthily placed his fork on the edge of the pot. But Zhenya quickly pulled the pot away and Kwon Taek Joo''s fork was thrown away. He tried again but it didn''t help either. Zhenya continued to pull the pot away every time Kwon Taek Joo approached. He couldn''t bear it anymore and suddenly gave an unreasonable warning. "If you don''t eat it right away, it will get cold." "What is the matter?" Yeah, no problem. Bastard. The hand holding the fork trembled, His unprecedented appetite quickly became boiling and everything before his eyes began to spin. His vision also became blurry. If you don''t eat it now, you don''t know when you''ll be able to taste it again. Maybe Kwon Taek Joo was just thinking too much, Zhenya''s request might be simpler than he thought. At least listen to him talk first. While he was thinking, the ramen soup gradually decreased. It seemed like he had to eat it immediately to survive. The fragile thread of reason is gradually breaking. Kwon Taek Joo immediately stood up and picked up the pot. Then he drank the soup as if it were the water of life. His neck moved up and down vigorously. As soon as the spicy soup touched the tip of his tongue, his eyes seemed to light up, his nose cleared and his ears seemed to open. It seemed like his stomach full of butter and fat was released instantly. Zhenya leisurely walked behind Kwon Taek Joo. He was too busy eating noodles so he didn''t notice his approach. Zhenya lowered his eyes and slowly scanned Kwon Taek Joo''s neck to his shoulders. He looked at the straight back, the smooth waist, the protruding buttocks and the legs stretched out below as if he wanted to lick it, then commanded in a low voice. "Do not move." Zegna''s fingertips touched the back of his thigh. It was a gentle touch, as if to brush away dust that was clinging to it. His earnest eyes followed each fingertip. The blue eyes didn''t blink for even a second, seemingly not wanting to miss anything. Even his breathing was suppressed. The next moment, his thighs were squeezed tightly, as Zhenya, who was gently massaging Kwon Taek Joo''s skin, suddenly grabbed his thighs. Kwon Taek Joo looked back with an annoyed expression, then focused on eating the noodles again. He had expected Zhenya to make a rather mischievous request, but this was acceptable. But that was an extremely reckless thought, because Zhenya''s fingers were slowly pushing the panties up and poking inside. The hand massaging his thigh quietly caressed the curve of his buttocks. His eyes, which were cold as ice, were now wet with enthusiasm. The man massaged the plump flesh so much that it slipped through his fingers. As if that alone wasn''t enough to satisfy him, he also made a brazen request. "Brace yourself a little." What is this? Kwon Taek Joo was about to frown and protest. Suddenly, a sharp sound rang out on the location tracking screen. He put down the ramen pot and checked the target''s condition. Sure enough, the red dot disappeared from the coordinates. This means that the location tracking device in Hong Yeo Wook''s stomach was somehow expelled. He brought the device in his hand to Zhenya''s chest. "You look satisfied." No response from Zhenya. He didn''t even quickly take back the location tracking device and just looked down at his hand. What is that regretful expression? Kwon Taek Joo laughed and patted his shoulder. "Thanks to you. I ate well." Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t miss the opportunity to tease. He wrapped the blanket that fell on the floor around his shoulders and left the kitchen. The new pot was empty. Zegna stood stunned for a moment then burst out laughing helplessly. In the evening, Zhenya went to scout the mansion''s movements. There was no one around so Kwon Taek Joo breathed a sigh of relief. He lay down on the bed and enjoyed the rest he was granted after such a long time. Both physically and mentally he felt comfortable. As expected, Kwon Taek Joo himself seems only suitable for solo missions. Looking back, he received a lot of help from Zhenya. But it''s better not to have a partner like him who specializes in causing more harm than good. Somewhere suddenly vibrated. Kwon Taek Joo out of habit took out his phone but it was just silent. It was the device that Zhenya gave him from the beginning, so no one other than him knew how to contact him. If it wasn''t Kwon Taek Joo''s phone, could Zhenya have left it behind before going out? It may also not be an important contact. And it''s also possible that he mistook the sound of the wind instead of the vibration. Even after predicting other possibilities, Kwon Taek Joo still did not hesitate to get off the bunk bed to find the source of the vibration. He tried liftingZhenya''s bed sheet. A phone fell out from under the pillow. As expected, a new message arrived. As soon as I tried to check the content, the lock function was activated. He relied on luck to try the Zhenya password he used in the armory. The lock on the phone was lifted as a joke. "..." But then suddenly he hesitated for no reason. It''s embarrassing to arbitrarily look at other people''s phones. Kwon Taek Joo''s life principle is not to interfere in other people''s affairs. Is it necessary to check this message to violate that? Maybe it was an extremely private communication that had nothing to do with Kwon Taek Joo himself. No, isn''t this an opportunity to confirm Zhenya''s true nature? Two streams of thoughts were in sharp contrast in his mind. Kwon Taek Joo turned on his laptop and connected it to his cell phone. It will take a while longer for Zhenya to return. He didn''t want to do something like this, but he needed to strengthen his faith in Zhenya''. What exactly is he doing? Did he really participate in this strategy just to get the blueprints like he said? And who is close to him? It seems like Kwon Taek Joo can only escape suspicion and be wary of Zhenya when he knows everything. He plugged the USB into the computer slot. It was one of the few belongings he had brought with him since the hotel exploded. It is specially manufactured to withstand most shocks and humidity, but it is unknown if it will still function properly. In a restless mood, Kwon Taek Joo scrolled through the list of files on the storage device. Luckily, the hacking program on the computer still works well. He ran the program and downloaded all the files on Zhenya''s phone. When a specific command is entered, all information is displayed at once. Even files that have been arbitrarily deleted or changed can be restored without any problems. Immediately, Kwon Taek Joo disconnected the cell phone from the computer and returned it to its original location. The unopened message icon still floats on the phone screen. It is almost impossible to find any traces of hacking at all. Kwon Taek Joo checked the most recent message among the messages uploaded to the computer. It was a long MMS message. "The SS-29 defect has finally been resolved. We are currently conducting additional testing to see if there are any other defects. Final results will be announced two days later with everyone present. Please come on this occasion." Such a surprise. SS-29. Kwon Taek Joo knew that the weapon had a problem and that problem would be resolved soon. But it''s unclear why that message was sent to Zhenya. According to the content of the message, those who received the message were involved in the development of ''SS-29. Doesn''t Zhenya have nothing to do with it? "You''re doing something pointless." Kwon Taek Joo was startled by a sudden voice. I don''t know when Zhenya was standing in the doorway. A chill suddenly ran down his spine, and the back of his head tightened. When did he come back? He couldn''t feel Zhenya''s presence. Not because Kwon Taek Joo''s senses are not quick, but because he is no different from a ghost. Therefore, hacking into his phone was discovered. "If you ask, I''ll show you." Kwon Taek Joo was surprised by his extremely calm voice. He was originally a shameless person, but right now he was in no position to act like that. "What is this about?" "I stole it." "What are you talking about?" "Do you remember when I came to the Bogdanov mansion, I met woman named Olga? Before we broke up, she asked for my phone number. By the way, when I entered the number into the phone, I also set it up. a cute application into it. It is different from regular hacking or virus programs. Even an expert cannot know something like that has been installed and it will spread naturally to other recipients through text messages. Fortunately, it seems that Olga is still in regular contact with her family, right? You can see all the messages coming and going from Bogdanov''s phone." Zhenya explained as he took out his phone. He even entered the password himself and threw it to Kwon Taek Joo. He hesitantly looked at him then turned his eyes to the phone. Just as Zhenya had just said, all the messages exchanged between members of the Bogdanov family and others were piled up. Additionally, all personal information, including past call records, contact information, photo albums, notebooks, and schedules, are stored in folders. Looks like he really hacked the Bogdanovs. "These days, things like that have also become weapons. They sell better than big. heavy pieces of iron." The era of armed war is over. Countries around the world continue to develop weapons and increase firepower, but most of them are only conceptual. The means of power dispute between nations has also been replaced by intelligence information. These days, where information dominance and secrecy matter most, Zhenya''s hacking program is highly commendable. Taking the Bogdanov family as the first experimental subjects is also worthy of praise. However, the question is not yet completely resolved. "That''s okay. Everything''s fine. But why did you hide such a good thing? If I hadn''t found out first, would you have pretended not to know until the end?" "I have no intention of sharing my business plan just because we''re collaborating for a moment." Zhenya sarcastically. His lips also drew a curve. The next words seemed especially fishy. "Did you ever consider me a colleague in the first place?" Despite such criticism, Kwon Taek Joo has nothing to justify. because Zhenya''s conjectures are completely correct. He usually didn''t consider him a colleague so it was unreasonable to think thatZhenya was betraying him because he didn''t share important information like this. After all, Zhenya is also a sharp person. There''s no reason he didn''t know that Kwon Taek Joo didn''t trust him. Even so,I didn''t think he would criticize me so bluntly. Things had reached their climax and he lost the motivation to push him further. Kwon Taek Joo returned the phone with a depressed expression. He was about to close the laptop, but Zhenya stopped his hand, then leaned over and looked at the screen. His head hovered near Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder. Suddenly he felt restless for no reason, as if he had just exposed his neck to a dangerous animal, He gently turned his head to the side. The person who checked all the copied files laughed. A ticklish breath blew against his neck. "Even though it''s only temporary, I''m still a colleague. I was even hacked. Can I trust you?" Zhenya is teasing Kwon Taek Joo as much as possible. His naked eyes looked at his cheeks and temples. Kwon Taek Joo does not necessarily have to justify nor apologize. All he had to do was turn off the running hacking program and turn off the laptop Zhenya''s continues. "If I treat you coldly. you''ll be hurt too, right?" What the hell. There are many levels to describe bullshit, but it''s truly impossible to describe his absurdity. Kwon Taek Joo gave up trying to react. Now is the time to focus on work. Luckily, the two of you had received information that the problem with ''SS-29'' had been resolved, so it seemed like you needed to take action seriously. The problem is that he still hasn''t found a way to break into the mansion. "They''re about to gather here, wouldn''t it be easier if we broke in before them?" "That''s probably it." Zhenya nodded absentmindedly. "When would be a good time? Tonight? Tomorrow morning? Or should we rest a bit until the afternoon and then go?" Anyone looking at him would have thought he was planning to go for a walk. Kwon Taek Joo asked again. "Why is that so easy for you, you bastard? Everywhere you look, there are no corners to crawl into." S§×ar?h the n?vel_Fire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "That''s because I''m just trying to find a way to get in like a mouse. Just enter through the main gate." Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even laugh. Just go there and ring the bell and they will open the door to let you in. "Easy for you to say? So how?" "Just take advantage of my plan in reverse and you''re done." "Against my plan?" "The hacking app I checked just now isn''t on the market yet. Not many people think that such a thing really exists. Most of the weapons being traded right now are iron bars used for fighting" and destroying objects. This is the time to raise awareness. Think about it. Like a virus, it exists in the host''s body and spreads naturally without leaving any trace, stealing everything information from infected people in real time. Who wouldn''t be tempted by such a product?" So he''s trying to make a fake transaction using that hacking app, and officially visit the mansion like an arms dealer? There is definitely a chance of winning. Just looking at the person in charge of ''SS-29'' maintenance, the owner of the mansion must be very interested in weapons. "But what if that side doesn''t respond to our proposal? Aren''t they busy preparing to welcome guests right now?" "That could be the case. But if it''s suggested that this is a program jointly developed by the US and Korea, they''ll give it a try" "Why are you so sure? There''s no way they can easily trust us. In military goods transactions, trust is life." "I''m here, what''s the problem?" "It seems you forgot, but I am also a famous businessman in this business field. No one doubts the products I introduce." "You''re so confident, it seems like everything is certain, right? Are you okay? There could be a big loss. You will have to announce a product that you had no intention of revealing before." highway." "There is no greater loss than not having Anastasia." If that''s what Zhenya thinks then Kwon Taek Joo has no reason to refuse. In a situation where all intrusion routes are blocked, it is difficult to find a better method. Zhenya, which operates in the arms smuggling market, introduced Kwon Taek Joo, a former member of the Korean intelligence agency. Kwon Taek Joo introduced the hacking application just now as a collaborative product between Korea and the US. If he can attract the other person''s attention, he can easily step into a mansion as solid as a fortress. Unforeseen problems may arise once inside, but it is not too late to resolve them. "Sergei Ilyavich Bogdanov. The owner of the mansion. He is a distant relative of Vissarion." Zhenya showed a photo of a middle-aged man. He seems to be quite a famous person in Russia, to the extent that information about him can be found from the Internet. "He is very interested in weapons. Especially if it is made in America, he will fall in love at first sight." Probably a weapon fanatic. This is a good omen. Chapter 18 - 2.5 Twilight: Sergei’s mansion Chapter 18: 2.5 Twilight: Sergei¡¯s mansionLate at night, Kwon Taek Joo quietly woke up. He carefully stepped up the stairs and climbed down. Zhenya must have been in a deep sleep because he didn''t move. He stared at his face in anticipation, but inside his closed eyelids there was only silence. His breathing was even and calm. Kwon Taek Joo only left the room after confirming multiple times that Zhenya was asleep. He lowered the sound of his footsteps and walked gingerly through the dark hallway. The first destination is the homeowner''s room. It was late so he tried knocking on the door. Occasionally there was a noise coming from inside, and the door quickly opened. The sleepy homeowner suddenly stuck his head out. He nodded and said sorry. "Sorry it''s late, but can I make an international call?" Kwon Taek Joo gave another excuse for dropping his phone into the toilet. Of course, it''s different from the truth. He also added that today is his single mother''s birthday in Korea. Of course that was also a lie. The homeowner with an annoyed expression reluctantly let Kwon Taek Joo into the room. Then he gave me the phone and instructions on how to make an international call. He carefully explained how the fare was calculated before going out. As soon as the door closed, Kwon Taek Joo picked up the receiver. He rarely had personal contact with the person he was trying to call right now. In strategy, he mainly uses walkie-talkies and SNS messages for other tasks. Because of that, Kwon Taek Joo had a hard time remembering this person''s contact phone number. After a long while, only a waiting signal rang out from the receiver. I don''t know if the person went to bed early or not but the other person didn''t quickly receive the call. Finally, a voice announced that the customer could not answer the phone, Kwon Taek Joo did not give up and pressed the callback button. The beeping started again. Just when he thought he should give up, the voice he had been waiting for all this time rang out. "Hello?" "Yoon Jong Woo." "Money... senior?" He was immediately startled when he realized it was Kwon Taek Joo. "What''s going on?" The stuttering voice had no feeling of joy or nostalgia at all. On the contrary, it seems that if he had known in advance, he would not have picked up the phone, and was left scratching his head. "I have a favor to ask." "Thank you...? Suddenly? Where are you now? Why is the phone number like this? "You don''t need to know that, just listen carefully to what I say." Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t explain the details to Yoon Jong Woo. Even colleagues belonging to the same organization are strictly prohibited from revealing combat content. That''s why Yoon Jong Woo doesn''t know where Kwon Taek Joo is and what he''s doing. So he asked for help as discreetly as possible. Call it a favor, but it''s no different from a one-way directive. "I sent a photo to your email, let''s find out what he''s doing." "Who is that?" "You think I already knew that but still called you? Hmm?" "Oh, that''s right. Because I don''t know, I asked for help." Yoon Jong Woo smiled awkwardly and looked confused. A while ago Kwon Taek Joo sent a photo of Zhenya to his email. He said that the two of them happened to be together and also gave him directions to investigate. If it''s Yoon Jong Woo. he cannot only find out the personal information of the person in the photo but also unofficial information. Kwon Taek Joo looked around warily and emphasized again. "Hurry up and find out. I''ll contact you via the phone number I''m calling" "Did you change your phone?" "What, something happened." Memories from the dav his phone was lost until now flashed like a flash of light. Every moment is filled with despair. Kwon Taek Joo rubbed the back of his head, which was almost completely healed. Thinking back, it''s lucky he''s still alive Now being able to talk to Yoon Jong Woo on the phone like this feels unreal. Yoon Jong Woo hung up the phone and said he would find out as soon as possible. Except for his genius hacking skills, he is an extremely stupid junior. It''s a pity, every time he remembers the past, he realizes how ungrateful people were. The more evil faces he saw, the more he realized that before was still better. Kwon Taek Joo finished calling and walked out. There was light coming from the kitchen as he walked down the hallway. Occasionally the homeowner''s voice can be heard. It seemed he was chatting with a guest who couldn''t sleep yet. Kwon Taek Joo interrupted someone''s sweet sleep so he wanted to stop by the kitchen for a while before returning to his room. "Thank you. Thanks to you.." He said hello and then suddenly stopped. Because as soon as he entered the kitchen, a familiar back appeared before his eyes. Sure enough, Zhenya turned to look at him. In front of him was a bottle of vodka and a glass. He must have been standing here chatting with the homeowner a while ago. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt nauseous, as if he had just done something he shouldn''t have done. Zhenya calmly asked about it as if he knew everything. "Who are you calling?" "Mom" "...A ha." Kwon Taek Joo thought he was going to tease him, but Zhenya''s reaction wasn''t very good. Has he realized something? It seemed that he left before the atmosphere became even more ambiguous. He quickly apologized and greeted the homeowner and glanced at Zhenya. "Not sleep?" "A little more." Zhenya shook the bottle of vodka that was still more than half full. Luckily he didn''t ask me to drink with him. As if saving ''he should drink alone", Kwon Taek Joo shrugged and left the kitchen. It seemed like Zhenya''s eyes were glued to his back. but Kwon Taek Joo just ignored it. He also tried to shake off the growing uncomfortable feeling. Kwon Taek Joo closed the door and climbed into the bunk bed. He pulled the blanket up to his neck and covered himself. He thought a lot about this and that and wondered if he would have a nervous breakdown if he continued like this. Starting tomorrow, his physical strength will be seriously depleted. There is nothing better than good sleep to improve your health. Kwon Taek Joo tried to force himself to sleep. When Kwon Taek Joo''s restlessness subsided, the surroundings became quieter. Snow fell outside the window again. Occasionally there is noise from the kitchen not far away. At first it annoyed him, but gradually the white noise became like a lullaby. His whole body became sluggish and his eyelids drooped heavily. He laid facing the wall and slowly fell asleep. Snow falls, piles up, it was blown away by the wind, then piles up again. A long time has passed like that. It was almost dawn and it looked like dawn would soon break. Suddenly, the door that had been tightly closed all this time opened. Zhenya entered. He went straight to bed after drinking the entire bottle of vodka alone, so it was just in time to get a good night''s sleep. But instead of returning to his bed, he reached out and grabbed the second floor railing. Zhenya is very tall so you can immediately see the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. His straight back continuously rose and fell as he breathed. He looked at that extremely peaceful scene for a while. Even though it was only for a moment, his blue eyes radiated a strange light. "...." Zhenya stood there and watched for so long that he forgot to blink, and only after he was bored enough did he bend over and lie down. The tension that had been stirred up by Zhenya''s movements quickly calmed down. The room became silent again. "...." Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelids, which were tightly closed, completely opened. He looked at the dark wall in front of him and was lost in thought for a long time. "Can we go now?" Zhenya asked while standing in the doorway. Kwon Taek Joo nodded while tying his tie. He is wearing a neat outfit after a long time. Kwon Taek Joo usually only wears a shirt and vest outside, but today he paid special attention. It''s been a long time since he''s buttoned his shirt up to the neck. The tie tied tightly around the neck was suffocating. He put on his vest and coat one by one and buttoned it up, Zhenya came up behind him. He immediately put the fur coat on Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulders while he was still looking at him curiously. Do you look too shabby to play an arms broker? Natural hairs gently wrap around his skin. The shirt was heavier than he thought, making him feel like he was wearing armor made of steel. Kwon Taek was enjoying the feeling of touching that soft fur when he suddenly looked in the mirror and was surprised. He had never been called small in his life. but his reflection in the mirror looked like a teenage boy stealing his father''s clothes. The width is a bit large but still acceptable, but the length is an issue. The hem of the jacket, which had touched Zhenya''s ankles, was dragging on the floor. "This..I refuse" He took off his fur coat and handed it back to Zhenya with a frown on his face. Zhenya, on the other hand, looked triumphant. Looking at his eyes curled up as if mocking, it was clear that he did it intentionally. Do you suddenly do such a ticklish action just to tease others? Kwon Taek Joo glared at Zhenya and walked out of the guest house first. The homeowner came to the front door to see the two people off. Kwon Taek Joo intended to sit in the back seat but then moved to the front passenger seat. As he was a guest of Zhenya, sitting in the back was no problem. But if Sergei Ilyaevich was an old acquaintance of Zhenya, he would certainly be suspicious. Because that side will know that Zhenya is not a great man to take someone with him. Do not arouse any suspicions. Zhenya quickly sat in the driver''s seat. Kwon Taek Joo straightened his back without even realizing it. Whenever Zhenya was within arm''s reach of him, his body stiffened. Even though they''ve been together for many days, Kwon Taek Joo has never let down his guard. The car backed out of the guest house. Strong winds throughout the night blew the snow away, erasing all traces on the white snow field. The wheel rolled over the roadless mountainside leaving a long trail. The mansion seemed far away when Kwon Taek Joo rode his bicycle facing the bitter cold, but now he soon arrived. Zhenya parked the car a short distance from the main gate and glanced at Kwon Taek Joo, wondering if he should enter or not. He took a deep breath and nodded. "Scat." "Obey." Zhenya laughed loudly and suddenly pressed the accelerator. The car rushed through the entrance like it was bouncing and then ran straight to the main gate. Cameras mounted on both sides of the thick iron gate were aimed at the car. While checking the people in the car, the gun attached below also aimed at the temples of two people. If you move hastily, everyone will have a hole in their head. A moment later, the camera returns to its original position and the iron door opens. An SUV is visible through that door. It seemed like someone had personally come to welcome the uninvited guests. Soon, the SUV''s windows rolled down all at once, and fully dressed guards stuck their rifles out. Kwon Taek Joo had anticipated that level of welcome so he obediently raised his hand. The security team confirmed that the two had no intention of resisting and nodded to follow them. At the same time, the SUV blocking the road opposite the two people''s car slowly backed away. Zhenya moved the car and approached the distance where the SUV had retreated. As soon as the car entered the main gate, the heavy iron gate also closed. Two people were completely trapped inside. Kwon Taek Joo and Zhenya''s eyes met and then quickly separated. Different from the outside, the inside looks simpler, even rough. The small garden built in front of the building looks like a wasteland. It seems the reason Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t find a single piece of green from the garden wasn''t just because it was the middle of winter. Maybe Sergei Ilyavich is not interested in managing the building, or maybe his taste is such. Every part of the mansion is cracked and weathered. making it look like an ancient ruin. The two were led to the front stairs of the building. The SUV stopped first, and armed men poured out from inside and surrounded his vehicle. Then, they roughly opened the driver''s door and passenger door and pointed guns at the two people. Zhenya and Kwon Taek Joo''s eves met again. One of the guards couldn''t wait any longer and pulled Kwon Taek Joo out. He was pushed against the body of the car and searched. All firearms were confiscated, including the Colt he was wearing on his belt and the Glock 26 inside his jacket. He also had to hand over a small knife that he didn''t know could be used to peel fruit. Zhenya cannot avoid the same thing. The man was scanning every nook and cranny of his body, constantly tilting his head as he examined the center area. Perhaps he was wondering if what was inside were human body parts. His eyes were filled with suspicion that Zhenya was hiding something else under the guise of a penis. The shape vaguely resembled a gun. Zhenya smiled sarcastically at his expression, wondering whether he should double-check or not. Soon, his penis wiggled and swayed from side to side. The man cleared his throat and quickly retreated. At that time, a chubby Russian man came down, leading his assistant. That was Sergei Ilvavich, a distant relative of Visarion, a powerful figure of the Bogdanov family. He was once a member of the Russian parliament, but his past glory has long since faded. Sergei hid in this place when he withdrew from politics after all the scandals and rumors. It is said that from then on. he turned his attention from the world of power under the sun to the underworld. The old mansion built on Siberian soil seemed to represent his situation, Kwon Taek Joo seemed to understand why ''SS 29, which was being developed with so much effort, was hidden here. No one would suspect that the Bogdanov family, the most powerful family in Russia, would entrust such an important item to a distant relative in the suburbs. Sergei Ilyavich stood with his arms crossed on his staff. Although he was very chubby, his legs did not seem particularly uncomfortable. So that staff with a large pearl embedded in it was no different from a piece of jewelry. He stopped in the middle of the stairs and looked down at Kwon Taek Joo. He also calmly faced the old man. Eyes trying to understand and eyes trying to hide tense conflict. Sergei then smiled mischievously. "How did you get here?" "I have something good that I want to show you." It was Zhenya who answered the question. Sergei''s eyes left Kwon Taek Joo and turned to him. "Good stuff? "Let''s go inside first and talk slowly. I don''t think this is a product that can be revealed indiscriminately in a place like this." "Let''s see, the house is a mess right now..." He hesitated and gave a rather obvious excuse. Zhenya encouraged me with a confident tone. "I''m sure you''ll like it." It was a voice that could captivate anyone who heard it. Is that why he calls himself a businessman? Kwon Taek Joo could feel the confidence and strength, even the cold determination that this was Sergei''s only chance. His expression became a bit more serious. It was definitely a worry. Hong Yeo Wook is currently in the mansion and ''SS-29'' is also hidden there. If he carelessly brings guests and related confidential information is leaked or any trouble occurs, his position will be in big trouble. But it seemed he didn''t want to give up checking to see what Zhenya had brought Sergei smiled awkwardly then looked atZhenya and Kwon Taek Joo respectively and nodded in decision. When he turned around and went up the stairs, the guards also let go of the two men. He smoothed his wrinkled clothes and chased after Zhenya who was walking ahead. At first glance, it seemed like the two of them had succeeded in piquing Sergei''s interest. A good start. Soon, the two were led to Sergei''s private reading room. Sergei, sitting at the head of the table, offered to shake hands first. "Long time no see." Zhenya nodded slightly and took his hand. Sergei glanced at Kwon Taek Joo as if looking for an explanation. "He belongs to the Korean intelligence agency... "It''s just a type of mercenary." Kwon Taek Joo put his hand out first. He did not hesitate to impersonate Chief Lim. He is living well in Korea so it is impossible for him to be falsely accused just because of this matter. This job is already quite hard and he should endure a little, this is the price that Chief Lim has to pay when pushing Kwon Taek Joo into this strategy. Sergei held Kwon Taek Joo''s hand without hesitation. "Hello. Nice to meet you." There was not a single empty space on his chubby finger, but it was filled with rings. If there was anyone in this world who was sad because he only had ten fingers, it was probably him. When Sergei let go of the hands that were clasped tightly with him, I don''t know if it was a mistake or not, but his fingers seemed to gently touch the middle of his palm before leaving. Kwon Taek Joo was suddenly startled. Zhenya, who must have been watching everything, suddenly laughed quietly. "We don''t have much time so let''s get to the point. What good stuff did you bring?" Sergei asked with a serious face. Zhenya also began his prepared explanation. "Not many people know about it yet, but there is a program that was jointly created between South Korea and the United States about three months ago. These two countries have realized the importance of dominating information." believe so he came up with a method to spy like a devil. With that program, there is no need to send elite agents to directly steal information or break a solid security network. Strictly speaking. Actually, it''s hacking but it never leaves a trace. You don''t need to risk direct contact with the enemy. Just borrow a communication device from one of his acquaintances for a bit. When that acquaintance calls the other person, sends SNS messages, regular messages, emails, and malicious code will automatically be transmitted. Thanks to that, all information going in and out of the other person''s phone is recorded over time. and the other side will never know that their information is being leaked. How about that? Isn''t it very interesting?" "Hmm? This story only appears in spy movies." "It''s a reality now." Zhenya took out his cell phone. Sergei hesitated a bit and then quietly took it in his hand. The first thing he tried was Messages. As he looked through thousands of messages, his cheeks occasionally twitched. It was a mysterious expression that seemed to be both smiling and not smiling. How would one feel when they discover that a message they only sent to a specific person is on a third party''s phone? Sergei immediately put down the phone and rubbed his hands together. "This is so... awkward." "There''s no need to answer right away. If you want, I can wait a day for you." So the matter will have to end in one day. Sergei looked at Zhenya with meaningful eyes and then laughed loudly. But he still seemed worried so he kept tapping his forehead many times and was lost in thought. Occasionally, he would roll his eyes and then look at Zhenya and Kwon Taek Joo respectively. The product itself was very popular, but he seemed skeptical as to why Zhenya would bring him such a good item. Sergei hesitated for a long time and then finally nodded. "Okay. Let''s think about it and decide. The price isn''t cheap, but it''s an attractive enough item that I don''t want to miss it. Can you please stay in this shabby place for the time being?" Are they not?" sea??h th§× ¦ÇovelFire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Those involved with "SS-29" took at least a day to arrive. Sergei just needs to decide before then. If he likes it, he''ll take the item, but if he hesitates, he''ll just kick you two out. All that needs to be done is not to let the existence of ''SS-29'' be discovered. In other words, it was necessary to find ''SS-29'' in one day, before Sergei made a decision. Kwon Taek Joo smiled and accepted his proposal. "Of course." Chapter 19 - 2.6 Twilight: Go Away Chapter 19: 2.6 Twilight: Go AwayKwon Taek Joo became busy as soon as he entered the room. He stood with his back to the door and looked over the overall structure of the room, then walked along the wall and looked into the window. He carefully checked the shape of the window frame and the glass material and then tried pulling it in and pushing it out. The fixed window does not budge. In addition, there is another cliff outside. All was as expected. There was no way Sergei could give a good room to a stranger. It seemed difficult to move anywhere in this mansion without passing through hallways filled with security guards. Kwon Taek Joo took out a lighter from his pocket. It''s a small device that uses high heat to penetrate glass or thin steel plates. It was also used at the Bogdanov mansion once before. He grabbed the handle and pulled the long tube out, then bent it and turned the flint wheel in a circle. A few rays of light appeared at the end of the long tube, and soon a high temperature flame flared up. With that, Kwon Taek Joo successfully punched a large hole in the glass window on the cliff side. He placed the neatly cut part on the window frame and put his left wrist through the hole. Kwon Taek Joo stood so close that his head touched the glass door and then pointed his watch up to the sky. When he pressed the time control device on his side, the watch face opened and something shot out. The object flew straight up and quickly disappeared from sight. Not long after, a clicking sound rang out in the air. Kwon Taek Joo took off the watch, opened the inside cover and took out a tiny memory chip. He plugged it into his phone and downloaded the saved file. A cross-sectional drawing of the mansion was broadcast on the mobile phone screen soon after. He could immediately understand the structure of the building, as if he were looking at the whole mansion from above. The hidden space between the wall and floor is also completely exposed. Kwon Taek Joo sent that cross-section diagram toZhenya and deduced the storage location of ''SS-29. I can guess 3 or 4 places. Basement, attic, behind the second bookcase in the reading room and the space inside Sergei''s bedroom. He tried contacting Zhenya by pressing the communication device to his ear. "I''ll probably have to search each place one by one." "Then I will be in charge of the reading room. Security in that place is especially strict so it should be very interesting." "Don''t kill innocent people. It will be troublesome to clean up." "I have never laid a hand on an innocent person. I''m just trying to protect myself in a legitimate way." Justified'' is not a word for you to use. Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue and ended the meaningless conversation. "Then I''ll start from the basement. Work hard." Kwon Taek Joo finished talking and looked back and forth between the room door and the bathroom. He quickly decided and headed towards the bathroom. The mansion is designed for daily use, so surveillance cameras are hidden not only in hallways and stairs but also in fire extinguishers, picture frames on the walls and flower pots. Now that an uninvited guest has arrived, security will be even tighter. In a situation where the whereabouts of ''SS-29'' were uncertain, the two of them could not risk a direct attack. When the enemy is outnumbered, it is best to avoid any conflict. According to the cross-sectional drawing, there appears to be an exhaust fan installed on the bathroom ceiling. Vent pipes in all rooms are connected as one and extend all the way to the tower to release air. And the basement is no exception. Kwon Taek Joo locked the bathroom door and turned on the water. A stream of cool water poured down. He pulled the opaque curtain to hide his absence After completing a series of preparation steps, Kwon Taek Joo entered the toilet and removed the ventilation fan cover. He poked his head through the ventilation hole and saw a dark passage. Not a large enough space but it didn''t seem difficult to crawl through. Kwon Taek Joo gently climbed up to the ceiling. The low ceiling of the vent immediately pressed down on his back. Even the slightest movement created a cloud of dust that made his nose and throat itch. Kwon Taek Joo buried his nose in his arm and coughed for a while. He turned on the headlights and shined forward. Eye sight can see clearly about 1 meter. He took a short breath and folded his arms and began to crawl. Kwon Taek Joo was careful and gentle not to let the ceiling shake He crawled through his room and approached the hallway, when suddenly there was a loud conversation coming from below. They seemed to be guards guarding the front of Kwon Taek Joo''s room. Leaving that extremely private conversation behind, he held his breath and moved forward. Finally, a turning path appeared. Kwon Taek Joo turned on his phone for a moment and checked the cross-sectional drawing again. To get to the basement, you have to turn left. When he turned to the left, a profile appeared. It looks like a path leading downstairs. Up to this point, Kwon Taek Joo was putting half of his weight on one elbow and straightening his upper body. At that moment, the ventilation hole collapsed. "..." It seemed he had touched the bottom of an old ventilation hole. Kwon Taek Joo quickly grabbed the wall to keep his balance. This caused quite a noise. Just at that moment, a guard passing nearby suddenly stopped walking. He saw him tilt his head beneath the ventilation hole woven like a net. He looked somewhere behind and tilted his head again. His front colleague asked what was going on. "Did you hear anything just now?" "What sound?" "It sounds like something is falling...?" He looked left and right again, then suddenly looked up at the ceiling and discovered that a ventilation hole had fallen down. This situation has been going on for quite a while but has not been fixed yet. Because owner Sergei said he would complete important work first and then proceed with large-scale repairs to the mansion, but he kept delaying it day after day. Could a mouse have run by? Even though I wondered that, the sound I just heard was heavier than that. The guard couldn''t let go of his doubts so he lightly tapped the ceiling with his rifle. If there is nothing on it then it will sound empty. Even the slightest touch of the collapsed vent causes it to shake violently. By the way, he also tried touching other places but could not detect the existence of anything anywhere. "What''s got you so stressed?", his colleague complained. "Nothing." "That''s it." "Don''t worry. It''s not unusual for rats to appear in the past day or two." The guard looked into the ventilation hole with a confused expression and was pulled away by his colleagues. Kwon Taek Joo is struggling in the dusty alley. He kept his head, back, buttocks, and both hands completely pressed against the vent ceiling, with only the tips of his toes touching the floor. His hands were slipping little by little because he was starting to sweat. If you fall, the ceiling will shake again. He just hoped that the two guards would disappear from the hallway before then. If it happens once, it''s a mistake, but if it happens a second time, they definitely won''t ignore it. If security decided to search the passageway, he would have no way to escape. The problem is that awkward posture cannot be corrected immediately. The sweat that accumulated on his forehead fell to the floor. His wet hand kept sliding down. It seemed like Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t bear it any longer. That''s your limit. The clinging body fell with a thud. The ceiling also shook violently. He held his breath and looked down at the situation below. His heart beat fast. Every minute and second seemed endless, Kwon Taek Joo waited a while longer but still saw no sign of anyone running because of the noise. It seemed like the security guard had completely left the hallway. Only then could he breathe out. "Ha, ha..." Kwon Taek Joo took a moment to catch his breath and start moving again. He crawled, turned around and crawled again along a path that seemed to stretch on forever. How far have you gone? Gradually, the smell of mold and moss arose. It seemed like he had finally reached the basement. The ventilation hole in the basement has a vertical shape, cut horizontally like a chimney. The height seems to be the longest at 4m and the shortest at 2m. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t let his head go out first, so he turned around with difficulty and jumped down without hesitation. The speed of the fall combined with the body weight caused the ventilation hole cover to break. Kwon Taek Joo rolled for a moment to diffuse the impact of the fall. Dust flew up as soon as he fell to the floor. Kwon Taek Joo''s vision became blurry. He stopped the cough that was about to explode with the back of his hand, then brushed away the dust and looked around. All the furniture was piled up in the basement. Among them, what caught Kwon Taek Joo''s attention was something covered under a thick veil. Its size is quite large. He quickly approached and cleaned up the surrounding furniture. The veil was pulled off immediately. Dust flew up again. This time Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t stop sneezing. When he opened his reflexively closed eyes, the strength in his shoulders suddenly disappeared. What was covered in the basement was not the weapon he expected. It''s just an old piano. As soon as the lid was opened, rats with glowing red eves rushed out. He suddenly sighed. Kwon Taek Joo risked his life to come here but he completely failed. He wanted to deny the truth before his eves. He searched not only inside the piano but also all the boxes there in vain nostalgia, but there weren''t any firearms or anything like that. He also pressed and knocked on the wall many times, but there was no such thing as a second space. What''s even more tiring is that Kwon Taek Joo has to go back the way he came. He looked bored at the ceiling. He had come here with a glimmer of hope but now all that remained was difficulty, and a challenge from a 3 to 4 meter vertical walkway. How to climb up there? Kwon Taek Joo, in a miserable mood, took out a special device that looked like a camera. He brought it with him just in case. He pointed the lens area at the ventilation hole in the ceiling and pressed the shutter button. A long wire was immediately shot out along with the lens cap into the ventilation hole. The rope didn''t fall down so it seemed to have stuck somewhere on the ceiling. He pulled hard to check, but it was already tightly fixed, so the thread became even tighter. Kwon Taek Joo climbed on the old piano. The rope fixed to the walkway was connected to his belt. Kwon Tae Joo held the rope with both hands and kicked his legs to climb up. He is familiar with rope climbing because he often practices it when studying Judo. Kwon Taek Joo safely arrived at the ventilation hole and crawled for a while to return to his room. Whenever he feels signs of movement from below, he will stop for a moment and then crawl again. As he slowly approached the room, he felt exhausted. All Kwon Taek Joo wanted to do was turn away and lie down. He had just passed through the hallway leading to his room. Suddenly there was a knock on the door from somewhere. Zhenya never knocked on the door, so the visitor was probably Sergei or one of his assistants. Kwon Taek Joo was surprised for a moment then hurried out of the aisle. The knock on the door rang again. When Kwon Taek Joo arrived at the ventilation hole in the bathroom, there was also a sign that the door was open. There''s no time left. Sergei burst into Kwon Taek Joo''s room and looked around at the mess inside. There was the sound of running water from the bathroom. He wondered if he didn''t even notice someone coming because he was taking a bath. Sergei considered what to do and decided to return later. Since you are a guest, it is only polite. He turned around and walked towards the door then suddenly stopped. After that, not knowing what he was thinking, he walked straight to the bathroom. There seemed to be a rush on his stiff face. Sergei pulled down the door handle but it was locked from the inside. Normally, the door that is locked must be the main door of the room, not the bathroom door. A bad premonition. He immediately took out a set of keys from his pocket and counted them one by one to find the correct one. At the same time, the bathroom door opened. The steam that filled the inside escaped through the open door. The person who opened the door was none other than Kwon Taek Joo. He must have just finished showering because his black hair looked thick and wet. The solid, curving body was also wet and shiny with water. A body that looks like someone put all their heart and soul into creating it. Sergei just stood there bewilderedly looking at Kwon Taek Joo. It was Kwon Taek Joo who broke the long silence. "What''s going on?" "Ah, since it''s almost dinner time... Let''s eat together..." Sergei stammered but his eyes slowly slid from Kwon Taek Joo''s face down to his chest and stomach and right down there. His thick lips opened. Kwon Taek Joo took out a towel and wrapped it around his waist. Only then did Sergei come to his senses, looking regretful at losing the taste he had just tasted. Sear?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "You want to take your meal into the bathroom?" "Oh, I''m sorry if I made you uncomfortable. Because I called many times and no one answered, I''m afraid something unfortunate has happened." Sergei made an obvious excuse. After that, he said that everyone would have dinner together at the restaurant on the first floor and quickly left the room. The door closed with a "bang". The footsteps echoed for a while and then quickly faded away. Kwon Taek Joo put on his robe as if nothing special happened and then staggered to sit down. He sighed with relief. He almost ran into Sergei in a dusty state. His heart was pounding uncomfortably. Kwon Taek Joo angrily ruffled his wet hair. "How''s it going? It''s probably not easy to fix something that''s completely broken. But succeeding in something everyone else has given up on is probably a great experience." "We''re just in the stage of tweaking the design." "Designing really takes a lot of time. That''s why it''s even more valuable. Even so, things that put a lot of effort into will not betray us. Just like sincere love will never been betrayed like that." Sergei laughed at that joke. Then, he gently leaned towards Zhenya and whispered a question. "Okay, when will you announce it to everyone in the industry? Everyone is very curious." "I have to consider it carefully. Over the years..." Zhenya, who was answering without hesitation, suddenly stopped talking as soon as he made eye contact with Kwon Taek Joo, who was entering the restaurant. Sergei also raised his head to look out the entrance and raised his hand to greet Kwon Taek Joo, who had now become neat and clean. "This side." The restaurant has a long table that can easily seat 40 people. But only Sergei, Zhenya and Hong Yeo Wook were sitting there. This is the first time Kwon Taek Joo officially met Hong Yeo Wook. Their eyes met and he just nodded. Hong Yeo Wook was quietly eating and also bowed his head silently in response. It seems like the seat where Kwon Taek Joo will sit has already been assigned. It was the chair right next to Sergei. Sure, because that''s the only place the cutlery is located. The waiter who appeared also placed Kwon Taek Joo''s appetizer there. Sergei nodded and said "Hello." He wasn''t interested but had no reason to refuse, so he just quietly walked back to his seat and stared at Zhenya sitting opposite. He looked at Kwon Taek Joo while politely eating and cutting the meat, then didn''t look at him but just shook his head slightly. It seems that Zhenya also wasted time and effort in the first search. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were glued to Zhenya, then turned to Hong Yeo Wook. He didn''t participate in the conversation at all and just focused on filling his stomach. After quickly finishing his food, he quietly left. As Hong Yeo Wook walked around the table, his eyes lightly touched the back of Zhenya''s neck. Even though it was only for a moment, the gaze was quite intense. Have the identities of the two people been discovered? Kwon Taek Joo was suddenly startled. Sergei says that Hong Yeo Wook is a guest who will stay for a while. He immediately changed the subject as if he was waiting for Hong Yeo Wook to leave. "Is the hacking program you mentioned used in both Korea and the United States?" He seemed very good at hiding his sinister intentions behind his cunning demeanor. To cover up a lie, it''s best to say a little less than to keep repeating it. Kwon Taek Joo wiped his hand on a napkin and brushed it away. "I want to avoid mentioning information related to weapons." "Ah, that must be it. I was so negligent." Sergei apologized more profusely than necessary. Then, as if thinking it would be better to have a normal conversation, the old man asked very personal questions about his hobbies and interests. I don''t understand why he is so curious about other people. When Kwon Taek Joo was looking for something to respond to, he often made eye contact with Zhenya. He was resting his chin on his hand and looking at the two of them, as if he was watching something very interesting. There was no sign that he was going to change the subject or help Kwon Taek Joo. When Kwon Taek Joo quietly urged him to do so, Zhenya just quietly laughed and slowly stood up from his seat. "I''ll go first. It''s a long way so I''m tired. You two continue talking." Zhenya left alone, leaving only Sergei and Kwon Taek Joo. It was obvious that the way he glanced at Kwon Taek Joo again and teased him was intentional. He was extremely angry but had no other choice. All he could do was stare at the back of Zhenya who was quickly walking away. That''s why he also missed Sergei''s question. "...You did?" "Hmm? What did you just say..." "I asked if you are married? Like having a lover or something." Sergei happily asked back with a friendly expression. "Does whether or not I have a lover affect your purchasing decision?" Kwon Taek Joo asked again and laughed. It was a rather cheerful smile. He could feel the calmness in his own voice, facial expressions and gestures. Sergei''s thick lips drooped at the unexpected provocation. His hand full of rings slowly covered the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s hand. The slow movement of his thumb and hand kneading his hand was extremely uncomfortable. "That depends on each case." The old man finished his sentence cunningly. Meanwhile, his hand slipped into Kwon Taek Joo''s sleeve. He had been enduring blatant harassment all this while, suddenly standing up from his seat. Sergei''s hand fell off immediately, his expression shameless as if something shocking had happened. "Sorry. I have urgent business to attend to." He showed off his even teeth and smiled fakely then left the restaurant. Sergei was left alone, looking on in bewilderment. Soon, the waiter brought dessert. It''s a chocolate covered brownie. He could see its moist and chewy texture. Sergei looked down at the brownie hesitantly, finally regaining his appetite and putting his fork down to enjoy the cake. Chapter 20 - 2.7 Twilight: (18+) Crocodile became a panther Chapter 20: 2.7 Twilight: (18+) Crocodile became a pantherKwon Taek Joo entered the room and stopped. Because Zhenya suddenly took over his bed, acting like they were still in the same hotel room. "Don''t be shy. come in." Kwon Taek Joo glared at him then closed the door and walked in. He immediately lowered his voice and asked "How''s it going?" "What?" "I''ll go investigate outside, and you said you should go check out the office?" "Ah, I left. Personally, I''m curious why they double and triple protect it like that. There''s also a safe there. I haven''t opened it myself but I''ve checked." See what''s in there. Mostly gold bars, cash and documents." "Anything else?" Zhenya shook his head. Isn''t it the same with the library? If so, there were only two places left to check, the attic of the tower and the secret space inside Sergei''s bedroom. If no trace of ''SS-29 is found in both places, this operation will be no different from failure. A day later officials from ''SS-29'' will arrive. After making sure that the defects have been corrected, ''SS-29'' will soon be transferred to another location. If Psych Bogdanov was among the guests, it was only a matter of time before they discovered his identity. Of course, the scenario where Sergei spits out the bait again and kicks them both out is still possible. So it''s best tonight, everything must be handled before Sergei discovers the truth. If we do not take advantage of this opportunity, even clarifying the identity of ''SS-29'' will become difficult. The two of them needed to move quickly, but on the other hand, they also had to be very cautious. However, it is not easy to reach the remaining two places because there is only one road leading to the tower. The ventilation hole used when going down to the basement is connected to that place, but the higher you go, the narrower the width becomes, so it will be difficult for a child to pass through. There is also a way to climb the wall outside the building, but climbing the steep cliff with your back to the fierce wind is tantamount to suicide, and it is also impossible to avoid the surveillance of CCTV and security guards inside. inside and outside. Finally, if you want to reach the top of the tower you must use the stairs, but even that is not possible because the entrance to the room is censored, especially if ''SS-29'' is stored there. Infiltrating Sergei''s bedroom was also not easy. The sun has set, Sergei will take a nap in his room. Security has clearly been tightened and it''s impossible not to have security sensors or surveillance cameras there. The more you delay, the more restrictions there will be. Kwon Taek Joo said disappointedly. "Or we could just capture Sergey and beat him up." "Before that, our bodies will turn into honeycombs. We still don''t know how many bodyguards are here, right?" On that part, Zhenya is absolutely right. The only information the two knew was the size and structure of the mansion. Kwon Taek Joo did not know how many people were inside or what security devices were installed. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn''t come up with a suitable method. While outside the villa, the problem was how to get inside, but once inside, there were other obstacles. "Sometimes soft power surpasses guns and knives." Zhenya spoke up. Kwon Taek Joo looked at him with curious eyes. ''Soft power'' is often referred to as women''s power, as distinct from force. Intelligence demonstrated in problem solving, persuasion, rich emotions and deep empathy etc. Of course, beauty cannot be ignored. History has proven that even a man of steel can fall in front of a woman. But what use is that now? Kwon Taek Joo immediately denied. "Things like inspiration and cunning can drive people crazy, but how can we find reinforcements now? The only person we''ve met on this island is the owner of the guest house." Zhenya listened and then smiled strangely. Then he stood up and closed the distance with slow steps. Kwon Taek Joo stood still and waited for him to come right in front of him. But when Zhenya suddenly stretched out his hand, he suddenly lowered his head. Even though he didn''t show it, he was still very wary of him. Zhenya didn''t hesitate for a second, his outstretched hand finally touched Kwon Taek Joo''s ear and stroked it gently. The hairs behind Kwon Taek Joo''s ears stood up immediately, clearly visible through his brown skin. He gently closed his eyes and tucked Kwon Taek Joo''s hair behind his ear. "There''s nothing to worry about. According to rumors, Sergei Ilyavich likes gay sex, and more than anything, he likes dark skin." "What...." "The way his eyes glanced at you was not normal at all." Kwon Taek Joo pushed Zhenya who was teasing him away. As if to warn him not to talk nonsense anymore, he pointed his finger at him. "Are you crazy? I''m not that enthusiastic" "Don''t get angry, think about it. You can go into Sergei''s room without having to run or roll around. Who knows if he''s so interested that he''ll talk about ''SS-29'' himself. I''m just telling you to find a way to get into the bedroom, after that it doesn''t matter whether you beat him to death or actually roll around in bed with him. This will all be behind the door, just the two of you. Just know on the inside. Isn''t that right?" Zhenya continued to persuade. It''s easy to say. If he was Kwon Taek Joo, would he want to let a perverted old man hold his hand? Kwon Taek Joo firmly refused and walked to the window. "Don''t keep forcing me into strange things. I absolutely won''t do it." "Do you really think that''s bullshit?" Something suddenly flew towards his back, Kwon Taek Joo followed the distance and turned around and grabbed it. It''s a location tracking device. A red dot indicates the target is flashing near the origin. It''s not completely overlapping. which means the target is standing close to the locator. Kwon Taek Joo stared at Zhenya as if asking for an explanation. He smirked and sarcastically asked him back, "Who is loitering outside which room door?". It appears he attached a location tracking device to Sergei at some point. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head again then threw the device he was holding onto the bed. "Anyway, I don''t..." "You know? The more opponents there are, the more the males burn with the desire to conquer." Kwon Taek Joo was about to firmly refuse, but Zhenya suddenly added and quickly approached. He also unconsciously stepped back, but he had completely closed the distance. His back hit the window frame, Kwon Taek Joo had no corner to run away from. For a moment, the two people''s eyes were entwined with each other. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo with eyes with unusual heat. It''s so strange. "The more desirable you are to others, the more valuable you are." "What..." Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Then Sergei''s voice asked, "Are you sleeping?" Sear?h the nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "No." Kwon Taek Joo quickly answered because if he remained silent for too long, the possibility of being suspected would also increase. He was about to walk towards the door when Zhenya suddenly grabbed his wrist. Kwon Taek Joo was almost thrown back into the window due to the strong pull. He tried to push his hand away but he still stood firm and did not move away. Zhenya raised his arms against the window frame and locked Kwon Taek Joo in the middle. It feels like a large, solid wall is blocking the front. "What are you doing?" Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth. Zhenya''s lips drew a long arc. It''s clear he''s plotting an evil plan. Just then, a jik sound rang out, the sound was so familiar that it confused Kwon Taek Joo, because Zhenya''s hand was going through the open zipper. "..." He quickly grabbed Zhenya''s arm. Despite being prevented, he did not hesitate to enter. Immediately, he grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s genitals that were quietly lying inside. The pressure was too great, for a moment his mind was dizzy. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s face while caressing the soft flesh in his hand and kneading it gently. The pain when touched was no longer there, Kwon Taek Joo winced slightly as if it wasn''t so bad. "Ah..." He gritted his teeth. He couldn''t kick or throw Zhenya away because his body was too close. If he were a little closer, he would bite his nose, but that was also impossible. All Kwon Taek Joo could do was grab his collar as if he was going to tear it off. He pushed Zhenya''s chin irritably. Even when pushed away, he still persisted in rubbing his penis, which was gradually becoming hotter. Kwon Taek Joo tried to glance down, the red meat mass was exposed, a little liquid had also accumulated at the head. His breathing, which had been rapid while struggling with Zhenya, now became faster in a different way, the eyes that were glaring at him with the momentum to tear him apart now blinked as if they were about to close. Zhenya gently turned his head away from Kwon Taek Joo and unzipped his pants. The huge penis rushed forward and bulged out. The meat mass that was too heavy to hold with one hand was added to Kwon Taek Joo''s penis and rubbed against it. Kwon Taek Joo panicked and suffocated. "...!" Just then another knock sounded outside. "Mr. Lim?" Sergei''s voice was full of doubt. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly woke up and pushed Zhenya away again. The more he pushed, the more Zhenya pressed his body closer and did not even allow him to struggle. Kwon Taek Joo was pressed tightly between the window frame and Zhenya without any countermeasures. Zhenya rubbed his rapidly growing muscles against Kwon Taek Joo''s pelvis and erect penis. Shaggy hairs rubbing against soft skin evoked a subtle feeling of pain. Kwon Taek Joo''s hips trembled. "Uh.." His upper body gradually melted away, his head slowly lowered. Zhenya doesn''t even allow that. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s chin and held it so he could look into his eyes. Zhenya lightly licked his lips as he watched Kwon Taek Joo frown, his genitals standing erect and proud as if it could pierce through anything. The mass of flesh swayed through between his legs, Kwon Taek Joo frowned at the strange feeling. A satisfied smile appeared on Zhenya''s lips, he licked the side of Kwon Taek Joo''s face with his hot tongue, his blue eyes filled with lust. At that time, Kwon Taek Joo seemed to have forgotten why he was being held back. His penis vibrated every time it was rubbed by the rough veins on the surface of Zhenya''s flesh. He tightened his genitals even more, using his own tendons to scratch Kwon Taek Joo. The liquid spilled out quickly, making his palms wet. Every time he moved his hand up and down, a rustling sound rang out. The feeling of sudden ejaculation made his middle tense. Kwon Taek Joo covered his mouth to prevent the sound from leaking out. The whole body''s temperature quickly concentrated in the center area, something that had been cooking all over the body suddenly exploded white at the tip of the penis. "Ah uh ugh..." Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly, he covered his mouth to prevent moans and gasps. Zhenya stared at Kwon Taek Joo''s red face and pushed his genitals against his firm thighs. The smooth skin felt hot as if it was about to peel off, but as soon as he ejaculated, he no longer had the strength to fight that terrible feeling of exhaustion. "Are you okay? I''ll come in." Sergey suddenly opened the door. The old man walked in without hesitation and then hesitated at the strange scene taking place before his eves. Kwon Taek Joo was half sitting on the windowsill. Zhenya stood in front of him and was personally smoothing his clothes. The room did not open the window so the heat and the characteristic fishy smell could not escape. There was a strange atmosphere between two people who were stuck together. Zhenya turned to Sergei with a business smile. "Please come in. I just came to borrow a book." He babbled excuses, picked up a random book on the bed and just walked out of the room. Just before the door closed completely, their eyes met. Zhenya smiled meaningfully at Kwon Taek Joo. He just wanted to shoot him dead immediately. Kwon Taek Joo stared at the closed door for a moment then Sergei cleared his throat to remind him of his presence. He stepped down from the window sill and approached him. "What''s up?" "Ah, actually..." Sergei was about to say something but fell silent. His eves were fixed on Kwon Taek Joo''s central area. When he bowed his head in the old man''s direction, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes widened. The zipper of the pants was not closed. Damned. He thought Zhenya had packed his clothes, but he was too subjective. The bastard''s face as he left the room flashed across his mind. Kwon Taek Joo swore in many languages in his heart and quickly zipped up his pants. But Sergei took his hand. He whispered meaningfully to Kwon Taek Joo, who was looking at him with a stunned expression. "Actually I''m curating an object. Everyone in Russia is interested in that object now. They say if they put it on the market it will be worth it. I want to hear your opinion Mr. Lim about whether that pile of iron is really worth it or not. How about it? It''s not something you see every day." Chapter 21 - 2.8 Twilight: Crocodile became a panther 2 Chapter 21: 2.8 Twilight: Crocodile became a panther 2There are three doors in Sergei''s bedroom. The first door is at the end of the hallway, the second door is through a long hallway where paintings are hung, a sliding door from both sides separates the bed space and the living room, each pass requires fingerprint identification. and iris. Security cameras are installed at a distance from each other, monitoring every move of guests to the point that people wonder what the hell is in there that has to be hidden like that. Sergei personally opened the last sliding door to the sides. The space inside is quite spacious. The round bed placed in the middle is large enough for 10 people. A leopard skin nearly 4 meters long was spread on light purple silk, each hair seemed still alive. Its yellow eyes also sparkled. Kwon Taek Joo wondered how he could sleep on that thing? I don''t know if that''s the hobby of people with excess money or not. The room even has a spacious bathroom that just looks at the design intention. Kwon Taek Joo hovered near the bed and became aware of the secret space behind it. According to the sectional drawing that he grasped, there was a rather large secret room there. "Do you want something to drink? Some good whiskey." Sergei offered him wine, and his way of speaking also changed from entering the bedroom. The eves looking at Kwon Taek Joo also became more obvious. He obediently accepted the cup he gave him. At a glance, he could see the undissolved white powder surrounding the small stone. Kwon Taek Joo pretended to bring it to his mouth and clicked his lips. Sergei walked past Kwon Taek Joo and climbed into bed. The old man relaxed his body, sat down and looked at him every inch as if he were a product displayed in a glass case. His eyes slid from head to toe in discomfort. Kwon Taek Joo put the glass he had just sipped on the nearby table. "Where is the thing you mentioned?" "Why are you in such a hurry? It''s not too late to take a look, is it? The night is still long.". The old man narrowed his eyes devilishly. A drop of whiskey dripped down the rim of the glass, and he stuck out his tongue to lick it. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away in annoyance. Meanwhile, Sergei poured the remaining wine and stood up, looked straight at Kwon Taek Joo and began to take off his clothes layer by layer. He took off his shirt and took a step forward. He took off his pants and took a step forward. Sergei quickly became naked with only a tiny pair of pants on, closing the distance and panting into Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Kwon Taek Joo quietly gritted his teeth and endured. Sergey walked behind him, gently rubbed his waist, then suddenly hugged his strong body. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s breasts that stood out from his shirt and squeezed them as hard as if he could burst them, then let them go, his hands sliding down his smooth abs. Kwon Taek Joo held his breath and looked into the distance. If you try to endure it three times, maybe you can avoid murder. But as he was trying as hard as he could, something hard touched his thigh. Kwon Taek Joo clearly felt its heat even through his clothes. In a moment, he was thrown to the floor. His chin hit the floor painfully. Sergei was completely oblivious and rubbed his swollen third leg against Kwon Taek Joo''s thigh. He exhaled refreshing breaths into the nape of his straight neck. As if being ridden by a pig in heat and panting, Kwon Taek Joo felt like something was crawling along his veins. Kwon Taek Joo, who was meaninglessly counting the spaces, suddenly opened his mouth to mumble. "No way..." "Huh, huh, huh? Huh, what did you say?" Sergei was completely naked, pressed against Kwon Taek Joo and breathing hard. The chubby hand poked into his side and moved towards his groin without hesitation. He held Sergei''s hand tightly. It seemed he mistook it for an act of sympathy, Sergei used his tongue to lick the back of his neck. Sergei''s body was lifted up. Vision turned upside down in an instant. That''s because Kwon Taek Joo threw him over his shoulder. Sergei was thrown backwards, his head planted on the floor, stunned by the memory of what had just happened to him. "It''s too dirty, I can''t stand it, it''s just enough to be perverted." Kwon Taek Joo mumbled as he pulled back his disheveled shirt. He angrily wiped the saliva on the back of his neck. Suddenly his phone rang, a series of numbers not in his contacts appeared on the screen. The series of numbers looks familiar, and seems to be Yoon Jong Woo''s phone number. Thinking back, Kwon Taek Joo asked him a favor. He immediately received the call. "Hello" Yoon Jong Woo shouted right then. "Senior!" Kwon Taek Joo''s eardrums rang at the sudden scream. He moved the phone away from his ear for a moment. Even so. Yoon Jong Woo kept saying words that he couldn''t understand. "What''s going on? How''s the research going?" "Who the hell are you with? He... You know?" "What are you talking about?" Kwon Taek Joo lifted the phone from his ear again, this time because of the poor connection. This is not an area where phone calls are impossible, but the Siberian cold seems to freeze radio waves and sounds. Furthermore, "who are you with?" Is he hacking and watching CCTV? Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously looked back at the bed and was startled. Sergei, who had just been thrown in that direction, had disappeared somewhere. Kwon Taek Joo quickly looked around and saw Sergei rushing towards him. He immediately put down the phone and grabbed the man''s wrist. Even though he blocked the attack, the old man''s speed and weight caused him to fall onto the bed. Sergei used his whole body to press on Kwon Taek Joo, his hand was held tightly by Kwon Taek Joo, holding a syringe, the cylinder inside was empty. It didn''t seem that way at first because there was still some liquid left at the tip of the needle. Kwon Taek Joo bent his knees and hit Sergei''s head, who was lying on top as if he wanted to crush him. Then he hit the weak points of the old man''s body. Sergei struggled and quickly became limp. "Damned." Squeezed by a giant body, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even breathe. He used all his strength to push Sergei''s body away. There was a thud and a heavy body fell onto the bed. He took a deep breath and stood up from his seat. Kwon Taek Joo searched every nook and cranny of the bed''s top and bottom, behind the headboard and underneath the leopard skin to find the key to the secret room. But there were no keys or anything like that. Surely there must be. Where is it?! Kwon Taek Joo continued to think and then looked back at Sergei lying on the floor. If it was an important item, he would definitely bring it with him. But now he wasn''t wearing a single piece of fabric, it seemed like it would be in the clothes that Seigei had taken off. Kwon Taek Joo picked up every piece of clothing that fell on the floor and tried to shake it off. His hand accidentally brushed something around Sergei''s belt. An object that looks like a square button. Kwon Taek Joo doubtfully emphasized it. Just then, the lid popped off and a remote control appeared. "Found it." Kwon Taek Joo smiled with satisfaction. He stood up from his seat with the belt. His heart was excited at the thought of seeing the secret room he had been searching for so long. "Ah..." But that didn''t last long. His mind suddenly went blank. This was probably just a temporary symptom, but his eyesight was quickly shaken. Kwon Taek Joo staggered and sat down next to the bed. His mind immediately became foggy. His train of thought quickly slowed down to the point where he couldn''t even think of why Kwon Taek Joo was here. He shook his head trying to regain his composure. Suddenly, the syringe Sergei was holding appeared in his mind. The cylinder was empty but he was too subjective. Kwon Taek Joo only guessed that the liquid inside had spilled out during the fight. Has it been injected into you? Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt pain in the back of his neck. The omen is not good. And it was worse because he didn''t know what kind of drug he was injected with. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and pressed acupressure points on his temples but it had no effect. He laid his heavy head on the bed. The whole world started spinning. How long has it been? Someone''s feet were in his side view. Since when has that person been here? Is it an illusion? Kwon Taek Joo wanted to raise his head to check that face, but his body was no longer following his head''s instructions. Kwon Taek Joo slowly rolled his eyes then little by little lifted his legs and thighs than waist then chest and shoulders. It took a moment before he could see the person''s face. At the same time, Yoon Jong Woo''s voice rang out through the phone that had not yet been disconnected. "It''s him! Are you listening, senior?" Who do you mean he is? The phone immediately fell into the other person''s hand. He calmly hung up and slowly walked towards the bed. While Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body was dizzy from the drug, his instincts sounded a fierce warning. Must flee. "Oh my." A familiar voice. That''s Zhenya. His long shadow covered Kwon Taek Joo''s head. He clicked his tongue but he didn''t feel any sympathy, pity or regret in it, only a mild interest in the current situation Zegna walked over the unconscious Sergei. Seeing his smiling face, Kwon Taek Joo was suffocated. The man in front of him was no longer a happy colleague. Nothing has changed from a while ago. but it''s not exactly the same as before either. Kwon Taek Joo used all his will to step back as much as possible, but in reality he only retreated a few inches. Meanwhile, Zhenya arrived right in front of him. He tilted his upper body to look down at Kwon Taek Joo. Kwon Taek Joo''s black eyes looked back at him hard. His lips drew a long curve and then right after that, he slid his hand into Kwon Taek Joo''s armpit and hugged him. Kwon Taek Joo was thrown straight onto the bed. The mattress creaked. "I came here because I was so worried, and you ended up like this." He climbed on top and stared at Kwon Taek Joo who was drenched in sweat. It''s unclear whether the person he''s worried about is Kwon Taek Joo or Sergei. He couldn''t understand what was going on. But on the other hand, you think you know. Conflicting emotions and thoughts constantly flash and pass. Only one thing is certain: if Kwon Taek Joo stays here, he will definitely die. Zhenya picked up the belt that had fallen on the bed and then skillfully operated the buttons with his hands. Then, somewhere on the wall, a loud mechanical sound rang out. Next, a part of the opposite wall began to slowly move. What appeared when the flat wall disappeared was not a safe or an armory, but only a large photo frame hanging there. It was a group photo of about 20 men. Kwon Taek Joo saw many familiar faces. Visarion and his sons he met at the Bogdanov mansion. Sergei, who is lying on the floor, is also taking up a spot in the photo. But somehow, Psych Bogdanov was not there, only a man who looked remarkably like Zhenya was standing right behind Vissarion. No, that must be Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo sighed, pursed his lips and looked at Zhenya. You have to check. He raised his hand that was shaking from the medicine and grabbed the man''s shirt as if crushing it. Zhenya just silently watched as Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his collar. A deep joy welled up in those cold eyes. Kwon Taek Joo snatched his shirt. The buttons of his shirt burst open and hit him in the face. Still, without blinking, Kwon Taek Joo witnessed the truth right before his eyes, a clear tattoo in the middle ofZhenya''s chest. It was a pattern he had seen many times before, from the Bogdanov family mansion, from the back of Boris''s hand, from the front door of this mansion, and from the forehead of dead Agent Morgan. "Ah, this? Don''t you think that only you can use that camouflage technique?" Zhenya''s taunts increased. It''s him. Zhenya, he is Psych Bogdanov. "Ha ah... Ugh..." Kwon Taek Joo was out of breath. He could see himself gasping helplessly in the mirror on the ceiling. Every time he breathed, the ceiling seemed to rush in front of his nose and then continuously recede. Kwon Taek Joo''s vision was greatly disturbed and his stomach cramped in pain. His whole body became hotter and hotter. His brain seemed to instantly boil and hot blood flowed through his veins to his toes and fingertips. The heat that invaded the whole body did not decrease but only continued to increase. His head felt heavy but he tried to stand up calmly. All senses were awakened so sensitively that just a light brush on the bed sheet made his limbs weak. Many thoughts rushed into Kwon Taek Joo''s mind at the same time. The first time he accepted a mission, the moment he happened to meetZhenya in the hotel bathroom, and the news hit him like lightning right after that he was his colleague. He has been both a generous and evil colleague, and a silent and brutal killer. Even so, the reason Kwon Taek Joo trusted him was because he was the partner he had been assigned by headquarters. When Kwon Taek Joo''s vigilance reaches its peak, he always creates situations that leave him with no choice but to consider him a colleague. It wasZhenya who guided Kwon Taek Joo to secret places in the Bogdanov mansion, and thanks to him he learned of the existence of ''SS-29'' through eavesdropping. In case of necessity, he did not hesitate to reveal information that was secretly shared among mafia businesses. To come here to find the whereabouts of ''SS-29'',Zhenya''s support was not small. The sole purpose is to make Kwon Taek Joo look ridiculous. Where and how did things get so confusing? Why did headquarters appoint him as your partner? Who knows, maybe he wasn''t a colleague from the start. Could it be that the plan of this operation was wrong? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand it except he came all the way here and it turned out like this. He stammered and looked at Zhenya. His appearance was the same as usual, but different. It''s ironic that he realized that his partner was someone he needed to stay away from. Intuition and reason, the current situation and even Zhenya''s behavior all point to one truth. However, there are still things Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t understand. "Why do you still let me live until now?" "Did I let you live?" Zhenya frankly sneered. "You''re so delusional." Kwon Taek Joo was stunned by the blatant ridicule. Come to think of it, Zhenya tried to get rid of him as soon as he had the chance. Joo was blown up. The entire room was blown away, and he couldn''t even get his belongings. Contact with headquarters was also severed. If he didn''t have experience with terrorism, he probably wouldn''t have gotten out of there alive. What was it like when Kwon Taek Joo was chased by a man he thought was Psych Bogdanov? Zhenya appeared in a helicopter and opened fire. It''s a pity that the moving car got stuck in the cold river, otherwise all the passengers including Kwon Taek Joo would have become a honeycomb. Even though his colleague fell into the water,Zhenya did not stop shooting. He didn''t even try to save his colleague from drowning. Anything else? At Bogdanov''s mansion, there was an unusual noise in the communication device. Zhenya gave him, and on the cross-border train, Kwon Taek Joo was attacked by an assailant" while searching for a missing person. Looking back, it all seemed so silly. Every momentZhenya aimed at Kwon Taek Joo, but he misunderstood that he was being helped. Meanwhile, new doubts arose. If Zhenya was determined to rush in, Kwon Taek Joo himself would have died a long time ago. However, it seemed that the fact that he was still alive was not simply luck, it was just that he had not yet used all his strength to kill him. Zhenya tells the reason. "It''s nice to see you fighting to survive." Zegna''s eves curved slightly. It''s always been like that. Every time he disappears, a difficult situation will arise, and if Kwon Taek Joo escapes the danger alone, he can find him watching from afar before he even realizes it. Even when Kwon Taek Joo''s life was threatened,Zhenya was always extremely comfortable. To him, Kwon Taek Joo''s life and death are nothing more than a game. "Bastard..." Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth. He clenched his hands into fists until his nails dug deep into his skin, it seemed like his anger would not subside if he did not smash the brazen face standing in front of him. I will turn him into a bloody rice cake so he can''t be so arrogant anymore. Determined, Kwon Taek Joo swung his fist. S§×ar?h the N??elFir§×.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But Zhenya blocked the punch with just one palm. Kwon Taek Joo''s fists trembled. He put all his strength into his fist but that bastard''s hand didn''t move. At that moment, the smile disappeared from his face. The true face of the man he often met before is revealed. At the slightest insult, Zhenya threw away his mask without hesitation. "It would be better if you could consider the situation before rushing in. Huh?" Kwon Taek Joo''s face turned around with a thud. The intense shock to the left cheek was really great. In an instant, the stars before his eyes flashed yellow. He couldn''t even moan, the left side of Kwon Taek Joo''s face immediately felt hot and swollen. Something exploded deep inside his nose. Not long after, red blood flowed out. His gums were torn and a fishy smell spread throughout his mouth. Kwon Taek Joo seemed like he would believe it immediately if his skull was broken right now. If this continues, he will die at Zhenya''s hands. The survival instinct beyond personal resentment begins to take over the entire body. Kwon Taek Joo struggled endlessly to endure the pain, but Zhenya used one hand to hold Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. "...Cough." Zegna''s fingertips tightened his breathing. Kwon Taek Joo frowned and painfully scratched the back of his hand. ButZhenya didn''t budge and just pressed down with momentum to break Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Looking at Zhenya''s narrowed pupils, it seemed thatZhenya''s reason had completely disappeared. Kwon Taek Joo hit Zhenya''s elbow to escape him. But It''s hopeless. His outstretched arm didn''t even move. The price to pay for a reckless attack is very high.Zhenya''s other hand directly punched Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach. His stomach fluctuated violently, feeling like it was about to burst. For a moment, his vision blurred and cold sweat broke out. Kwon Taek Joo lost the will to fight the pain that penetrated his lungs. Will you die like that? In a place like this, in this way? During the mission, Kwon Taek Joo''s life was threatened many times. There are a lot of situations that are much more unpredictable than now. But nonetheless he was still very determined. Kwon Taek Joo never gave up even when the plane crashed, the storage room exploded, or at a depth of hundreds of meters. Sure it was, but now he was thinking about the end of his life. You can''t run away. It is such a strong belief and at the same time an obvious truth. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes trembled and had difficulty graspingZhenya. No expression could be found on his cold face. Is that guy really Psych Bogdanov? Will he ever be fooled by his strange prank again? He threw out useless excuses. A vein appeared on Kwon Taek Joo''s straight forehead, and his eyelids twitched continuously. As if he had a premonition of the end, the warming light in his head went off. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly, about to explode from the pressure, then opened them. He licked his trembling lips. His exhausted voice choked and broke. "You... yes, you really... Uhm, that''s right." Zegna was successful. Kwon Taek Joo will laugh. It''s not unbelievable either.Zhenya is very close to the Royal Family. and he can go wherever he wants. Like Psych Bogdanov.Zhenya is very skilled in the military. Kwon Taek Joo should have paid attention when he saw his high-tech arsenal on display. Besides, there are countless moments whereZhenya''s identity could be questioned. The root cause was that he trusted too much information from headquarters. A bitter smile appeared on Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. Even while he was panting, he still laughed. His blood-red eyes curled up, and his mouth that was trembling in pain curled up. The laughter that should have come out coldly got stuck in his throat as a growl. A change inZhenya''s cold face, a meaningless smile crossed his face. It was such an instantaneous change that Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even notice it.Zhenya suddenly let go of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. "Phew, ha, ha, ha... Cough cough cough cough" Kwon Taek Joo breathed a sigh of relief. His heart pounded in his chest. He took a deep breath, trying to absorb oxygen hastily with a strong survival instinct, then coughed. His face was red with coughing and blood coming from his mouth.Zhenya watched Kwon Taek Joo cough hard and then lifted up his pants. He pulled out a dagger that was tied tightly to his ankle. Chapter 22 - 2.9 Twilight: (18+) Crocodile became a panther 3 Chapter 22: 2.9 Twilight: (18+) Crocodile became a panther 3The sharp blade slowly swept across the corner of Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. It was a threatening action, as if his eyeball could easily be gouged out at any moment. Holding the dagger vertically, Zhenya held the tip right above Kwon Taek Joo''s eye. The tip of the knife moved gently, barely touching the eyeball and during that time,Zhenya''s eyes did not blink for even a second. Kwon Taek Joo''s cough almost stopped. Instincts completely control the entire body. Zhenya grinned when he saw Kwon Taek Joo stiffen. Immediately after that, he held the knife in his mouth for a moment and then pushed his knee below Kwon Taek Joo''s waist, his lower body was naturally lifted by strong thighs supporting his waist. Then he tore Kwon Taek Joo''s clothes and threw them in all directions with the dagger he was biting. The knife cuts not only cut the clothes but also grazed the skin, but Kwon Taek Joo''s panicked head didn''t even notice the pain. Suddenly he heard the sound of the zipper going down. Something heavy fell on his lap. That''s Zhenya''s huge penis. The already erect mass of flesh pressed down on Kwon Taek Joo''s knee, pushing forcefully against Kwon Taek Joo''s skin. When Zhenya glanced at him and put him back in place, his fingers slid through the gap in his ass. He shook the red hot, hard mass of flesh as if it could penetrate anything, The small hole in the glans throbbed and did not hide the excitement. Kwon Taek Joo only realized Zhenya''s intentions when the mass of meat rubbed its head against the hole in his butt. Zegna held tightly onto Kwon Taek Joo, who was struggling urgently with flailing arms and legs, and recklessly pushed in the hot genitals. The huge mass of hard flesh was stuck in the dry hole, unable to fit all the way in and was bitten tightly. Zhenya stuck his saliva-soaked index finger into the annoying hole to widen it. Then he thrust his hips again. Only then do the dense folds open and the bulging glans is swallowed. After removing his fingers, Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulders with both hands. Maintaining that position, he lifted his waist and pushed his genitals all the way in. "..." An indescribable pain overwhelmed him, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes widened at the feeling of penetration for the first time and then quickly frowned. His buttocks twitched as the ferocious monster forced its way inside, as if an iron stake had been driven into the middle of his body and firmly embedded there. The area around the navel becomes burning. Something flowed down, sliding along the massive column, drenching all the rough pubic hair. The holes are not loosened properly and the muscles suddenly contract. Zhenya frowned and clicked his tongue. The hole bites tightly into the penis, preventing blood circulation. A large vein stood out on Zhenya''s smooth forehead. If it''s too uncomfortable, it''s better to stop, but it seems he has no intention of doing so. Instead,Zhenya arched his upper body and whispered coldly. "If you realized what was going on, you might be able to shake your hips to save your life." The humiliation made the skin under Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes tremble. The irrepressible anger rising from deep within was enough for him to tear Zhenya to shreds in an instant. Zegna gave a more satisfied smile as he looked at Kwon Taek Joo gritting his teeth in indignation. Suddenly, he lifted his leg and placed it on his shoulder. When Kwon Taek Joo''s waist was raised, the tightly woven lower part came into view. The small hole twitched continuously, struggling to hold the frantically eager penis. Kwon Taek Joo''s spine chilled. Zhenya slowly licked his lower lip and then pulled his lower body back. Kwon Taek Joo closed his mouth tightly and turned away. The next moment, the lower half of the body is impacted and the entire penis is pushed back in. "...Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body shook. When the buttocks and thighs are hit hard, the joints make a friction sound. As if that wasn''t enough, Zhenya put his entire body weight on Kwon Taek Joo, pressing Kwon Taek Joo''s knees into his chest and lifting him up. As a result, the two people''s faces were no more than an inch away from each other. Kwon Taek Joo''s lower body had lost feeling, his eyes were closed and his clenched teeth were cracking to endure the terrible pain. His skin turned pale with shame and anger and then turned red again. Zegna watched Kwon Taek Joo and thrust his hips continuously. The mass of meat swelled to the maximum and then repeatedly hit the small hole, scratching inside mercilessly. The originally narrow entrance gradually loosened to accept the ferocious monster to its core. Every time Zhenya thrust deep inside, Kwon Taek Joo''s body felt like it was being split in half. He struggled to escape the pain that poured down on him like a heavy rain. But the more he struggled, the more aggressive Zhenya became. If Kwon Taek Joo twisted his waist even a little and tried to run away, he did not hesitate to attach his lower body and press him down harder and block all movements. Kwon Taek Joo was brutally abused with his hands and feet tied tightly. And he couldn''t stop it or run away. Wet sounds came from the hole that was being interlocked and collided continuously. The buttocks collided with Zhenya''s swollen, rock-like thighs. As if not wanting to miss any change in Kwon Taek Joo''s expression, Zhenya continued to push his back without changing his position, only occasionally rotating his waist to stimulate excitement. Amidst the terrible feeling of failure and humiliation, the heat still increased in the core. If he paid attention, Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was about to feel something. He tried to stand up and curl up, but his head kept tilting back, and his toes kept stretching out, his chin trembling as if he was about to stop breathing." "Ugh, Ah, oh.. Ah..ah.." Kwon Taek Joo shook his head angrily but the tingling feeling running through his body did not dissipate. His mind became increasingly foggy and dizzy. I don''t know when the pain from the penetration disappeared, now only the unpleasant burning sensation remains. It''s your body but it feels like it''s no longer your body "..Haah." Zegna straightened his back and took a deep breath. He leisurely smoothed his tangled hair and moved his lower body. When the mass of flesh was completely enclosed inside, his chest and abdominal muscles contracted as if reacting to the sweetness. His sweat was drenched in intense pleasure, making his body even smoother and sleeker. Zhenya ripped Kwon Taek Joo''s shirt. The torn shirt opened to the sides, revealing a solid body. He slowly rolled his eyes over Kwon Taek Joo''s naked body. It was clear that this was the body of a man but I couldn''t understand why he kept drooling. Zhenya quenched his desires endlessly, but his thirst was still not quenched. His head was spinning dizzily but something was still missing. He wants a little more. When Zhenya straightened his back, the view below Kwon Taek Joo''s waist was clearly reflected in the mirror on the ceiling. He turned away embarrassed. But it was useless, because Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s chin and fixed it straight towards the front. He shook his head and tried to push his hand away, but Zhenya didn''t budge. He closed his eyes tightly, but he forcefully thrust his large penis inside, forcing him to open his eyes. "You have to raise your head. Think of the difficulty of attaching a mirror to the ceiling." Zegna''s face was filled with mockery. Unable to bear the insult, Kwon Taek Joo clenched his teeth and closed his eyes. Zhenya did not hesitate to lift his lower body. To penetrate deeper, he held Kwon Taek Joo''s body and pushed his body hard. The internal organs in his stomach felt like they were being ripped apart and pushed up to his neck. Kwon Taek Joo was suffocated and suffocated. That''s not the end. Zhenya raised Kwon Taek Joo''s knees and bent his waist. His back was completely arched and his butt was placed right in front. That image is reflected directly without any filter through the mirror on the ceiling. Kwon Taek Joo could see two sweaty buttocks completely intertwined with the giant mass of flesh. Zhenya slowly moved and pulled his genitals in and out of the hole. The normally folded entrance now widened as if it would be torn apart with the slightest touch. When the penis completely disappears inside, the discomfort subsides. But as soon as Kwon Taek Joo witnessed the penis being pulled out endlessly, the hangover he had been suffering from returned. "Ah... You bastard... Ack!" Before Kwon Taek Joo could spit out curses, Zhenya pushed the entire penis in. Suddenly someone entered the empty wall inside, making a loud sound of air escaping. The genitals accelerated and hit the soft wall as if cutting Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach. The feeling of nausea and pleasure kept coming, making it impossible for him to stay awake. "Ah, ah, ha...!" S§×arch* The Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Compared to my thoughts...it''s not bad, right?" Zegna''s voice was excited. The curved eyes also shine strangely. Those eyes were tinged with excitement and madness as if he had just finished hunting. "I thought it would be dry and tasteless." Zegna lowered his upper body while pushing his genitals into Kwon Taek Joo. He gently lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s arm, grabbed his chin and turned it to the side. Zhenya leaned down and opened his mouth to bite Kwon Taek Joo''s protruding sternum. His arm that was held tightly in Zhenya''s hand trembled at the feeling of his sensitive skin being gnawed by sharp teeth.Zhenya smiled and sucked the part he was biting. "..Ugh" Kwon Taek Joo frowned. His neck arched and his breathing became unsteady, his whole body flinching at the feeling of his delicate skin rubbing against Zhenya''s soft tongue. He licked his exposed neck for a long time then suddenly gritted his teeth. Kwon Taek Joo''s limbs shook again. A clear tooth mark is left at the site of the bite. Immediately, blood seeped through his skin, heat rushed to his chin, Kwon Taek Joo angrily muttered "fuck" Zegna comfortably pushed back. The hole began to be penetrated violently again. The swollen entrance had difficulty swallowing the large penis and then releasing it. Her arms were tied tightly so every time she was stabbed, Kwon Taek Joo''s chest was also shaken. Shiny nipples attract attention, Zhenya did not hesitate to hug Kwon Taek Joo''s chest, the muscle in his palm was both firm and soft. As Zhenya kneaded and squeezed it, the two nipples that had been quietly raised their heads between his fingers. He sneered, "That''s really lewd." "Your nipples are so big, it''s like they''re begging me to suck them." Kwon Taek Joo''s ears burned with embarrassment. He tried to raise his shoulders, slapped Zhenya and tried to push him. But unlike his will, his body was almost paralyzed by the drugs. Zhenya gently held Kwon Taek Joo who was trying to struggle and used her tongue to lick his nipples. "..Dog!" A vein appeared on Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. The angry curses that had not yet come out were caught in his throat. His head twisted as Zhenya pressed down on the sensitive flesh with the tip of his tongue and sucked it tightly. Kwon Taek Joo''s abdominal muscles also tightened. Enjoying Kwon Taek Joo''s rebellious reaction, Zhenya sucked his nipples even tighter. The stimulation spread down Kwon Taek Joo''s waist. The more he struggled and protested, the more stubbornly Zhenya bit and sucked on the nipple. Even the nipple that wasn''t bitten hardened. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes gradually softened at the unfamiliar stimulation from an area that had never been attacked before "Aww... uhm... ah!" Zegna lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s lowered chin little by little and sucked on the other nipple. He extended the tip of his tongue to lick the areola and then bit the round nipple. Zhenya pressed Kwon Taek Joo''s knees and shoulders that were trembling from the sharp pain and then rubbed his tingling, aroused nipples. Her nipples were covered in saliva and were grabbed by a naughty tongue. The small, hard mass of flesh that was bitten and sucked became soft and the numbness that broke out there spread to the center. "...Ugh, ah, ak." Zegna played with Kwon Taek Joo''s nipples then suddenly looked down, because something hard was touching his waist. Kwon Taek Joo''s penis has been erect ever since. showing its presence. The corner of Zhenya''s mouth curled up. "Look how swollen it is." Kwon Taek Joo''s face heated up at that naked sarcasm. He gritted his teeth and poured out curses he couldn''t understand and a promise to kill him. Meanwhile, Zhenya, after a moment of caressing his waist, stopped with a satisfied expression. The sound coming from Kwon Taek Joo''s butt colliding with his firm thighs was painful. Zhenya''s long, thick penis thrust in and out of the hole. It wouldn''t be surprising if the skin on his abdomen, which became swollen every time he was stabbed, was torn. Zegna accelerated as if he was about to reach the finish line then suddenly pulled his hips out. Then, not only the soft skin around the hole but also the slime inside was exposed along with his genitals. Zhenya''s lips drew an arc as he looked at the pale pink mucous membrane that had stuck to his genitals. He lightly touched the smooth mucous membrane with body fluids, then suddenly stabbed underneath. "..Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo groaned nervously. Even in his hazy state of consciousness, he still tried to throw himself away to escape Zhenya. He held onto Zhenya, who didn''t care about the situation and stabbed him in the stomach as much as he could. But those are meaningless actions. Zhenya opened Kwon Taek Joo''s knees and tightened his lower abdomen. He braced himself with both arms and pushed his upper body towards Kwon Taek Joo. He was pushed into a place where his genitals had never touched before. Kwon Taek Joo''s waist was floating in the air twitching. Blood rushed to his frowning face, he couldn''t breathe. "Come on. I have no intention of letting you live." Suddenly he pushed hard inside and whispered. Kwon Taek Joo''s head was spinning from the gnawing feeling in his stomach. Zhenya''s penis shows no signs of stopping. He didn''t know how much longer he would have to endure that excruciating pain. Chapter 23 - 2.10 Twilight: Crocodile became a panther Chapter 23: 2.10 Twilight: Crocodile became a pantherKwon Taek Joo lost consciousness several times and then regained consciousness. Time seemed to have passed for a long time and it seemed like it had stopped. He couldn''t tell if this was a dream or reality. Whenever he opened his eyes, Zhenya was still on top of him and tied his arms and legs. A series of terrible pains came, Kwon Taek Joo continuously screamed and fainted. He didn''t want to move his body but it was still pushed hard by Zhenya. His throat was so hoarse that he couldn''t swallow, and there was no feeling between his legs and his ass. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even dare move his legs because his body fluids had dried and stuck to his hip bone and around the hole. He was so wet between his legs that it looked like it would run down his legs if he suddenly moved. Just then, the bed shook. Because Zhenya appears again. In his hand was a thick handmade cigar. After taking a sip of a lit cigar, he sat down next to Kwon Taek Joo. "Now I will answer each of your questions. If you die without knowing the situation before or after, it would be unjust, wouldn''t it? I also admit that." That''s so kind. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes narrowed. The hand that was already hanging down was now clenched into a fist.Zhenya looked at him happily and then held out his hand. Kwon Taek Joo shrugged. He didn''t bother reaching out to touch his messy hair. "Let''s start with the Anastasia you''re looking for." Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes, which were blurry, suddenly became much clearer.Zhenya laughed at him for not giving up on the mission even in this situation. "There is no Anastasia. It never existed." Kwon Taek Joo frowned. Impossible. It was obvious that Zhenya was trying to tease him again. "Don''t play tricks. So how will you explain SS-29?" "SS-29... I don''t know why you mistook it for Anastasia, but that ballistic missile is so ordinary compared to Anastasia." Kwon Taek Joo''s face was blank at Zhenya''s comfortable answer. Is ''SS-29'' really just a ballistic missile? In Russia, he learned that the serial number ''SS-No.'' applied to intercontinental ballistic missiles. However, the information about ''SS-29'' that Kwon Taek Joo accessed at the Bogdanov mansion reminded him of ''Anastasia'', so he thought they must be the same. Anastasia was praised for its unprecedented firepower, but in reality it was expected to be similar to existing nuclear weapons. But are they completely different? From the beginning, wasn''t it Anastasia and Kwon Taek Joo who fell for Zhenya''s scheme and were unreasonably mistaken? Questions appeared one after another in his mind. "Anastasia research failed a long time ago. There were some problems with the design. I wasted countless money, time, and manpower developing it. Well, in some ways, that''s okay." not exactly a losing investment. The whole world was excited just by the rumor that it existed or that it would be completed soon. Just look at both Korea and America sending him and his colleagues. This is clear now." Zhenya laughed and grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s body and turned him around. His strength exhausted, his body was flipped over without any resistance. His hand stroked up his calf and gradually went up, slipping between his thighs. The limp penis was held inZhenya''s hand. He said "No need to be too disappointed" while wiggling and playing with Kwon Taek Joo''s soft penis. "You know, Anastasia was the last princess of Russia. There is still a lot of talk about her fate. Because the death of the roval family was covered in a veil and the body was not found either. properly recovered. After being shot in a certain cellar, the whole family was thrown into a mine shaft... Those were the tragic rumors about her family, also known as the Romanov family. Of course, being widely known doesn''t necessarily mean it''s true. Unclear things will always create ''fakes''. It''s true. After Anastasia''s death, many women claimed to be her. Anna Anderson was one of them. At first, she was also considered an impostor seeking the royal family''s wealth. But gradually evidence and testimony began to emerge that She could be a real princess. What''s the result?" Zegna stopped mid-sentence and asked a question. When there was no response from Kwon Taek Joo, he suddenly squeezed his genitals and asked, "huh?" like asking for an answer. "...Ack! Damn, who knew that!" Zegna laughed as if such a violent reaction was amusing. Then he gently caressed Kwon Taek Joo''s swollen balls. His soft white hands massaged and kneaded the two round eggs as if he had a lot of feelings in them, but Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t know when he would get mad again.Zhenya continued to explain and slid her hand deeper between his legs. "The boring legal battle lasted decades. People are divided into two camps. Those who believed in Anastasia''s return and those who did not. Time passed and Anna Anderson died. It was a life nonsense, but something remained. It made countless people over the decades think that Anastasia might actually be alive." What does he want to say? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t grasp the heart of the story "There is a character who always appears in Russian folk tales. Koshichei" The Immortal. As his name suggests, he is strong and nothing can kill him. There is an obstacle that character must overcome and is the crystallization of adversity. In that story, Koshichei kidnaps a beauty and a warrior rushes into his castle to rescue her but always fails. Of course, Koshichei also has weaknesses. Only Koshichei himself knew that. In the end he was killed by that brave man. If you are passionate about beauty and without hesitation brag about your weaknesses, then that is truly stupid! Kwon Taek Joo who was silently listening to try to understand Zhenya''s intentions suddenly frowned, because his thigh was suddenly pressed hard. Zhenya, who was fiddling with Kwon Taek Joo''s genitals, climbed on him again. His legs were pressed and blocked by him. Zegna''s eyes were fixed on Kwon Taek Joo''s back. The back line extends straight from the broad shoulders to the slim waist. If Kwon Taek Joo moved even a little, his sweaty back muscles would move too. Her buttocks attached tightly at the end of her waist showed off her smooth curves like a ripe fruit.Zhenya''s dark eyes glanced and captured all of that Zegna lowered his upper body and pressed his lips to the nape of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. It was a gentle touch, completely different from before. Kwon Taek Joo''s body odor filled his nose. As if unable to bear the increasing lust, he bit the back of his neck, Kwon Taek Joo lowered his head in disgust.Zhenya smiled softly and whispered in his ear. "No matter how you look at it, you''re not a beauty, but I''ll tell you Koshichei''s weakness." Kwon Taek Joo thought it was still a dream. He couldn''t find a single connection from the storiesZhenya told him which made him feel like he had been having one dream in a row. However, the feeling of pain all over my body was unmistakable.Zhenya''s voice rang out clearly. This is not a dream.Zhenya continued to speak mysterious words whose meaning he could not understand. "There is an uninhabited castle in a vast land. You cannot go there by yourself unless you become a fish, a worm or a flying beast. And in the castle there is an ancient tree that is very tall, its age is the same as Koshichei''s age. There is a large jewelry box on the south side of the tree, and that jewelry box is filled with small jewelry boxes. Within those boxes, there is something that everyone searches for. It''s not too much or too little compared to other boxes. Koshichei''s heart may or may not be in it. But if you find it, Koshichei will be in your hands. You can freely I become a Koshichei." Zegna lowered himself a bit. At the same time, his thick chest touched Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder blades. The two people''s sweaty bodies stuck together and their body temperatures overlapped. Kwon Taek Joo shrugged his shoulders, looking annoyed. "That''s enough. Go away." The words were like a growl. ButZhenya just laughed. He placed his hand under Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach and rolled his penis. AsZhenya slowly pulled down the skin, the pink glans were revealed. Kwon Taek Joo''s back arched. The mouth that was barking fiercely also closed. The penis fell into Zhenya''s hands trembling with both anticipation and fear.Zhenya looked at him like a child and then lowered his lips to Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder. He kissed along the straight back. When Zhenya''s lips touched the rising buttocks, Kwon Taek Joo''s body stiffened. He gently hugged her firm buttocks and let go. "I want to meet your expectations." Immediately after that, Kwon Taek Joo''s buttocks were expanded to the sides. The semen-soaked hole was exposed without time to hide it, even the slightest exposure to the outside air startled him. The semen that filled Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach flowed out all the way to the entrance, filling almost all of the tight folds. If he turned even a little, some of it would spill out and flow out. Kwon Taek Joo buried his head in the pillow at that extremely sensitive feeling. Zegna put the handmade cigar in his mouth again. Then he stuck a finger into the hole. Semen flowed out from the fingers. He raised his fingertips to rub against the inner wall, the remaining semen flowing down. Between Kwon Taek Joo''s legs quickly became shiny. Zegna opened the hole wide and suddenly lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s face. He opened his mouth with a long finger and pressed it against his tongue.Zhenya put the cigar he was smoking into his mouth. Kwon Taek Joo could neither smoke nor spit out the cigar, groaning with difficulty and clenching his hands into fists. The curse came out from between clenched teeth. "Haah... bastard." Because Zhenya opened his ass and licked it. The wet hole continuously rubbed against his tongue. The sensation is maximized to the point where the taste buds can be felt in each unfamiliar stimulus. The tip of Zhenya''s tongue slid across all the wrinkles at the entrance. Kwon Taek Joo''s back twisted violently every time the hard tongue pressed tightly against the hole and pushed inside. The cigar he had just sucked on soon fell out of his mouth. Overcoming the itchy feeling, Kwon Taek Joo shivered because of the feeling of joy that followed. Zhenya''s legs were propped up against the soft bed sheets. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s hips as if he wanted to break them and firmly immobilized his body as he tried to escape. Kwon Taek Joo quietly pressed his lower abdomen to the bed and rubbed it in pleasure from behind. And his penis quickly became erect. You must be crazy. Kwon Taek Joo felt like his brain was being torn apart. The humiliation of being arbitrarily violated into a secret area that even he himself had never touched. The blood flowing throughout his body became as thick as semen. Thick saliva spilled out of his mouth as he bit into the pillowcase trying to hold back his moans. As time passed, Kwon Taek Joo seemed to become sensitive to stimulation. By the time Zhenya sucked the thin skin around the hole until it made a sound, the thrusts of the lower abdomen became more intense. Kwon Taek Joo squirmed under the stimulation from the front and back then suddenly held his head and gritted his teeth. The next moment, his spine stiffened and his thighs tightened. "...!" Zegna suddenly raised his head. He looked down at his hand, something splashed out. Semen smeared between his fingersZhenya suddenly looked at the wet hand and Kwon Taek Joo who was panting. Then he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled "Did you shoot semen because I sucked your hole?" Kwon Taek Joo trembled and cursed. He thought he could endure it, but couldn''t believe it. anything else? His body caught fire with just the slightest touch, he must have been completely drugged. At first Kwon Taek Joo thought it was just a muscle relaxant, but now it seems to be an aphrodisiac. It was clearly Sergei''s action, because he wanted to hug Kwon Taek Joo from the beginning, so he must have had a plan in advance. Zegna laughed at Sergei lying on the floor and spread Kwon Taek Joo''s legs a little more. "I''ll let you shoot one more time, just from behind." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhenya''s penis plunged into the hole and crashed into the inner wall. The opened entrance bit the mass of meat immediately. Kwon Taek Joo still can''t get used to the feeling of his stomach filling up at the same time as the pressure on his spine. "...Ah!" He tried to hold back but a moan that was no different from a scream came out. This time Zhenya inserted his genitals to the base and observed the junction. The hole opened its mouth and closed tightly around him like a small creature. Zegna''s arms stretched out to support his upper body. Kwon Taek Joo with her legs spread wide held his arm. Maybe because he was too tired, he couldn''t resist like before. Instead Kwon Taek Joo just waited for this terrible moment to pass quickly. None of this is fun at all. Zegna enjoyed the tightness for a while then grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s nape. He pressed his lower abdomen against his ass to penetrate deeper. As he put all his body weight down, Kwon Taek Joo groaned. Just like that, he pushed his waist behind him. Zegna''s huge muscle mass attacked with vigor, Kwon Taek Joo tore the bed sheet with his angry hands. The pillow was also thrown to the floor. Zegna''s eyes gradually turned a different color. Strange excitement rushed over him when he saw a creature writhing restlessly and helplessly under him. The thrill of catching a bluefin tuna with your bare hands, the thrill of beheading a reindeer struggling to survive, and the heat radiating from the core are similar to the feeling of euphoria. It quickly rose to the nape of the neck and spread to the head. Immediately after that, the calmness disappeared from Zhenya''s face. He frowned and concentrated on mixing skin and flesh. The sound echoed from skin hitting each other. Body fluids pooled white and stretched like spider webs across the buttocks and pelvis. While pushing himself like a storm, Zhenya ran his nose across Kwon Taek Joo''s neck and ears. The strong smell of her body stimulates desire. Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach was so compressed it felt like it was about to explode. Every time the huge mass of flesh pushed in, his stomach tensed helplessly. He gasped at the burning numbing sensation. His fingers dug down again, tearing the bed sheet. Zhenya did not hide his overflowing lust. He bit Kwon Taek Joo''s ear and continuously buried his face in his black hair. "If you want to walk out of this room on your own two feet, you''d better bend down and shake your hips or howl like a dog in heat. I''m even more excited to see a fearless rebel." scary. They say you have to trample on lovely things to release your essence. You''re defending that you''re like this because Sergei drugged you. Huh?" "Nonsense... Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted again in anger, because Zhenya''s lower body was excitedly pressing down on his waist. The sinewy penis mercilessly rubs its head against the overworked hole. He thrust so fast and hard that sometimes his penis stuck into his thigh. The mass of meat was as hot and hard as a heated iron bar that seemed to be able to easily pierce a hole in Kwon Taek Joo''s thigh, quickly finding its position and stabbing inside. "..." Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes opened wide. For a moment, a corner of his stomach tightened. He jumped up in confusion but Zhenya suppressed that almost convulsive body movement and pressed his chest tightly against Kwon Taek Joo''s back. The sweaty skin stuck together, Zhenya''s penis also dug deeper into the mysterious place. He grabbed the trembling Kwon Taek Joo''s waist and squeezed his groin tighter. The glans, which was expanding the tight inner wall, was suddenly pulled up somewhere it had never touched before. Right after that, Kwon Taek Joo, who was pinned underZhenya, jumped up. "...Ha ha!" Zhenya was startled by the unexpected reaction. He gently removed the upper part of his body that was clinging to Kwon Taek Joo and looked down at the back of his neck. Kwon Taek Joo buried his head in the pillow but he couldn''t hide the blush behind his ears and nape. His body trembled from the indescribable burning sensation he had just experienced. Zhenya''s lips drew a long arc. He immediately pulled his genitals out of Kwon Taek Joo. His body trembled as the tight inner walls suddenly became loose. The cells, which were very tense, quickly relaxed and fell into silence for unknown reasons. Even his shoulders suddenly lost strength. Noticing all those changes, Zhenya stretched Kwon Taek Joo''s buttocks to the sides and immediately gently rubbed the genitals that were eager to enter on the buttocks bone. Every time the hot meat rubbed, Kwon Taek Joo''s head was buried deeper into the pillow, his hands gripping the bed sheet also tightened. Zegna patiently rubbed the outside. The afterglow of intense stimulation made Kwon Taek Joo''s hole tickle endlessly. "Come to think of it, there was something I was curious about before..." He left the sentence unfinished and suddenly stabbed his genitals inside. Kwon Taek Joo''s body, which was restless and worried, became crazy. Zegna''s penis wiggled, enjoying the sweet encounter inside, without hesitation, stabbing into the same spot as before. A gentle tingling feeling ran down Kwon Taek Joo''s spine. "Ah...!" The old feeling returned. His whole body trembled, not knowing what to do, as if an electric current was running through all the cells in his body. Just as the constricted cells were about to burst open,Zhenya suddenly withdrew his penis. Kwon Taek Joo''s swollen stomach suddenly became empty. When Kwon Taek Joo felt suspicious,Zhenya rubbed his genitals against his butt bone. As soon as the heat increased, the flesh woke up and screamed. His patience ran out and he began to burn. Kwon Taek Joo tried to rub his lower abdomen and his tense center. Once again, Zhenya plunged his penis into Kwon Taek Joo''s hole. He pressed down hard on Kwon Taek Joo living helplessly below, the heat of the friction seemed to melt his skin. A quick breath suddenly came out, the pain penetrating his lungs made his upper half collapse. Kwon Taek Joo frowned bitterly, realizing that his genitals could explode at any moment. There was a sharp pain between his legs, and his mind was spinning. However, he still endured until the end. The hole was exhausted from being repeatedly attacked by Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo nervously bit the glans but his penis was still dripping wet. "Is it possible to kill someone just by doing this?" Zhenya exhaled heavily and muttered. No response from Kwon Taek Joo. He gently pushed his back and went inside the hole a little more. Like a joke, the inner wall tightened and wrapped around the skin. He repeated that action a few times and then smiled softly. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s body rushed towards Zhenya. It was a completely instinctive move. Zhenya observed the scene with a surprised expression. Against Kwon Taek Joo''s will, his body opened up and swallowed that huge, ferocious piece of meat. A satisfied smile appeared onZhenya''s face. Kwon Taek Joo could only tremble with humiliation and shame. "Fuck.." With mixed emotions, Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his hair and buried his red, distorted face deep into the pillow. His aphrodisiac-infused eyes burned and blurred but he could clearly feel his buttocks twitching and pressing againstZhenya''s body. Sear?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zegna continues to devour Kwon Taek Joo''s hole. His penis, red with heat, roughly moved in and out of the tight entrance. "Ah... Ah, ha...!" "Ha ha... ugh..." The moans of the two people mixed together.Zhenya kept moving his waist then suddenly grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder and turned him around. The body was locked tightly by Zhenya could only turn halfway. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head vigorously as the body part that was connecting together rotated.Zhenya lifted his legs to his shoulders. The mass of flesh rubbed against the inner wall creating another stimulation. He reached out and continuously squeezed Kwon Taek Joo''s chest. Zhenya gradually accelerated. The two people were panting heavily and moaning continuously. The burning feeling controlled the entire body and spread to each of Kwon Taek Joo''s toes. Something in front of him was about to explode.Zhenya''s situation is not much different. He rushed forward to devour Kwon Taek Joo as if he was hitting him between his legs. A tingling feeling like an electric shock exploded. "Uh.." "Ha ha!" Both of them roared and spat out the remnants of their lust. Semen splashed onto Kwon Taek Joo''s chest at the same time as something shot deep into his stomach. Kwon Taek Joo was imbued with a terrible feeling of exhaustion and could barely breathe. His whole body was numb. He no longer had the strength to lift a finger, nor did he have the strength to look down at his genitals that were tingling in the lingering aftertaste. Zhenya kept pounding his lower body to spit out what was left. Even after ejaculation, the penis inside his brother was still full of vigor. The semen that filled the inside spilled back out. After finishing his work, he pushed Kwon Taek Joo''s foot off his shoulder. Long tired legs drooped helplessly. Kwon Taek Joo was limp and breathless. Zhenya put the cigar rolling on the bed into his mouth. The warm smoke went down his neck and down his stomach. Zhenya enjoyed a cigar while slowly passing through Kwon Taek Joo''s body. No matter how you look at it, this is a man no different from him, but if he asks again and again why he is so captivated by that man, the answer will appear on its own.. "It''s also a good idea to test whether a person can die just from this. Either way, you''re going to die here today." Zhenya spoke up as if he was wasting something. Chapter 24 - 2.11 Twilight: Crocodile became a panther 5 Chapter 24: 2.11 Twilight: Crocodile became a panther 5He''s done it three more times since then. Kwon Taek Joo was almost unconscious the whole time so he might have done more. If you do this several times in one night and stay with him for three days and three nights, you will really die. His blood and body fluids would run out before he starved to death. Since when has he no longer felt anything below the waist? The feeling of excitement also subsided as if the injected drug had dissipated. All that''s left is just excruciating pain. Kwon Taek Joo raised his eyelids when he felt the bed shaking. In his blurred vision, he saw Zhenya going somewhere. The bastard calmly walked into the dressing room behind the bed, which was also where the photo of the Bogdanov family hung on the wall. Zhenya stood in front of the photo frame and then without hesitation flipped it aside. Another door appeared behind it. He is familiar with entering passwords. The door opens easily with a characteristic mechanical sound. Inside were unidentified glass bottles lined up. Zhenya took out a bottle of them and went back to bed. "Do you know what this is?" He gently shook the small bottle in his hand. No answer. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t even have the energy to lick his lips.Zhenya remained silent and unconcerned. "This is polonium-210. It can be said that it is a relic left behind by the failed Anastasia." Kwon Taek Joo''s eves widened at the phrase ''polonium-210''. It is a substance with thousands of times more alpha particles than radium. Only about 100g is produced annually in the world, but the toxicity is so strong that even a very small amount introduced into the human body is fatal. Zegna slowly raised Kwon Taek Joo''s hand. He muttered while neatly picking up each long straight finger, his tone seemed to be humming. "What should I do? Let''s cut off each finger first, okay? A body was found in Lake Baikal. Not bad. A frozen body will be brought back by your colleagues. No matter what." he also tried to contact you. He must have been very hurt because you beat him." sea??h th§× N?velFire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Colleague, who is he talking about? No one appeared in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind, but there was one person who reminded him of "hurt from being beaten". Is he really Kwon Taek Joo''s partner? Zegna did not give Kwon Taek Joo a chance to think longer. Before his eyes, ''Polonium-210'' was inserted into the syringe. The piston is pulled in and a clear liquid fills the cylinder. "Anyway, do you think you''re hated over there too? Did the place called the National Intelligence Service send you my photo by mistake?... There''s no such thing." It''s confusing. Too much information pouring in at once in a desperate situation with imminent death. Kwon Taek Joo''s heart skipped a beat not only because he had a premonition about the end of the world. An uneasy feeling of unknown origin stuck in his mind and couldn''t be shaken off. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo himself missed something. What is that? Zegna tapped the syringe to get the air bubbles out. "It''s like you knew about the corruption of your superiors that they didn''t want to reveal." Zegna made a judgment as he pressed the plunger, the medicine sprayed out from the sharp needle. He lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s arm. His whole body was tense. Are you going to die like this? Impossible. Kwon Taek Joo can''t die like this without knowing what''s going on. However, the body doesn''t even have the strength left to try one last time. That sharp tip of cum seemed like it could touch him at any moment. At that time. Kwon Taek Joo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly pushedZhenya''s shoulder. He didn''t know where that power came from.Zhenya also seemed startled by the sudden counterattack, but he wasn''t too surprised. Kwon Taek Joo, who was struggling desperately, was immediately subdued.Zhenya without hesitation inserted the needle into his neck. "Ugh!" Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes narrowed at the sharp feeling. He was stabbed so violently that blood flowed out from where the needle was inserted, even inside the cylinder, red blood flowed out like ink.Zhenya smiled and pushed the plunger all the way to inject all the medicine. All the sparkling liquid inside the syringe was pushed into Kwon Taek Joo''s body. For a moment his mind was spinning. The arm that was resistingZhenya also fell helplessly. The vision split into many pieces and then immediately dispersed. So is it the end? Everything in his ears became distant. Kwon Taek Joo felt the presence of something opening and closing, clicking, clicking. A sound he had heard somewhere. Are they cigar scissors? Kwon Taek Joo heard happy whistling not far away. The other person held his ring finger tightly, and the clinking cigar scissors also moved closer. Immediately after, a sharp pain came from the ring finger. "Stupid rabbit." A deep laugh echoed in Kwon Taek Joo''s ears. Perhaps something had been cut off and a terrible pain continued to rise from the ring finger. What will happen now? His consciousness seemed to sink into a deep abyss, leaving behind vain self-questioning. Chapter 25 - 2.12 Counterattack Chapter 25: 2.12 CounterattackA vague humming sound. The shadow swayed rhythmically across Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelids. Fingers were cut off, limbs and body were cut in half. The body was cut into pieces like a fish and quickly lost body heat. All the blood was drained, leaving only a bloodless mass of flesh washed in bleach. He didn''t feel any pain. His mind was still blank. Are you dead? All that remains are vague thoughts that dominate my mind in the last days of my life. His arms and legs froze. His body seemed to float in a vacuum, and also seemed to be sinking into the water. The strong smell of alcohol entered his nose and a dark area immediately appeared. Cold water flowed through every hole in the body. There is a fishy smell. A black snakehead fish appeared in the darkness. One child. two children, three children... They kept coming in droves, their eyes sparkling. They wander around and look for prey that has been thrown away. Then a guy suddenly burst in and everyone simultaneously started tearing off the white meat and eating it. A dark shadow swayed in the blurry vision. But Kwon Taek Joo could neither see the face nor hear the voice. When he came closer to get a closer look, they also backed away. A certain distance was maintained and a dark shadow surrounded it. It moved slowly, then faster until his eyeballs couldn''t keep up. His breathing became labored. When the rotational force reached its peak, the black shape became a water bubble and burst. Don''t forget your promise to dad. A sound echoed in the foam that had disappeared. It wasn''t a human voice. Kwon Taek Joo quickly turned back to the source of the sound but the separated black shape did not reappear. Have you completely stopped breathing? So you can see the souls of the dead and even hear their voices? Why does consciousness not disappear but still remain? Kwon Taek Joo floated vaguely, but a giant water bubble suddenly emerged and quickly passed beside him. He turned back to look. The bubbles receded very quickly and then formed a shape. It was bigger and more dynamic than anything Kwon Taek Joo had ever seen. It''s that bastard. The moment he realized the identity of that shape, his body reflexively took a step back, but the more Kwon Taek Joo stepped back, the bigger and bigger he became. Don''t come here. The silent scream shook the space. The next moment, that giant shape crashed into him. His body was sucked into the dense darkness. Kwon Taek Joo choked. The forgotten pain returned more vividly as if every joint in his body had been chopped into pieces. The peeling skin was unbearable. The black shape that covered his body instantly turned white, emitting a cold, mocking laugh. Stupid rabbit. "..." Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelids opened wide. Vision fades then becomes clearer. Everything is before your eyes. Is there a problem with your vision? Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes and then opened them again. Nothing changes. The quiet white ceiling, the faint sound of the air conditioner, the familiar smell of disinfectant. The cushion felt like it supported his back firmly. From what he saw, it seemed like this was a hospital. Kwon Taek Joo raised his hand. An intravenous needle was stuck in the back of his hand. There are up to two injections. He even brought an oxygen tank with him for emergencies. Apparently he was still alive after thinking he was dead. So what is illusion, what is reality? His head felt like it was waterlogged and he couldn''t remember anything clearly. It''s difficult to know whether the afterimages left in the brain are real or not. The only thing Kwon Taek Joo was sure of was right before he got off the train. When he tried to recall the memories afterward, his head felt like it was about to explode. Kwon Taek Joo groaned softly and clutched his bandaged head. "Are you awake?" Suddenly an unfamiliar voice intervened. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly woke up with relief. His hands involuntarily groped around his waist. But the guns that should have been there were gone. After identifying his opponent, Kwon Taek Joo quickly let down his guard, because the person facing him was also in a not so good condition. He was in a cast from shoulder to wrist Kwon Taek Joo raised his head because of a bandage around his neck. His eyes were bruised and swollen, and his lips were swollen and dry. A bandage was wrapped around his head and duct tape was applied to his torn forehead and cheekbones. Judging from the fact that he was on crutches, his legs also seemed to be in bad shape. It appears this person has been in treatment for at least 12 weeks. But somehow, that face caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eye. It might have been just a hallucination, but he had a profound sense of deja vu. Not long after, the man''s identity appeared in his mind. Kwon Taek Joo could recognize him, but he didn''t immediately because of his miserable appearance. It''s Psych Bogdanov. No, he''s the man that Kwon Taek Joo mistook for that bastard. On the day of the hotel terrorist attack, he disguised himself as a paramedic and followed Kwon Taek Joo. At the time, he thought he was Psych Boedanoy. Now he knew he wasn''t, but what the hell was he talking about? Remembering that he aimed at the helicopter as soon as he saw Zhenya with a bazooka, it''s best that Kwon Taek Joo should not get close to this person. "Who are you?" "You asked too early." "There has to be a time to ask." "Ah, that''s probably not the case. You must have been so busy that you didn''t even notice your partner." "...partner?" Kwon Taek Joo frowned. The man came forward to face him. He heard from department head Lim that there was a randomly assigned partner. After considering the attention of people around him, the other side naturally approached him and said they would send photos at the appropriate time. The next day, two pictures were sent to him. One was a photo ofZhenya, and the other was of the man standing in front of him. At that moment,Zhenya started talking and Kwon Taek Joo immediately thought he was his colleague. He was very brave and he helped him on the first day he entered the country, so Kwon Taek Joo was not too suspicious. How the hell did things get so messed up? A perfect confusion was created by the head office''s mistake of forcing an unwanted partner and mistakenly sending a really important photo and time to meetZhenya. But there''s still something puzzling "Why didn''t you reveal your identity sooner?" "Did I have time to reveal? If you had time then why didn''t you tell me? How the hell was I supposed to get to you when you were so attached to Bogdanov? I waited until you were alone to approach you but I almost died trying to take you to a quiet place to explain. Have you forgotten that you beat me until I passed out and drowned in the water?" He wears his sarcasm with a lot of resentment towards Kwon Taek Joo. Why not? It''s all because of Kwon Taek Joo that this man is now in such a bad situation. He was so embarrassed that he couldn''t lift his head and wondered what the hell he had done. "Now it sounds like an excuse, but I have a reason... Ha, it''s really an excuse. Sorry for not recognizing you. I''m truly sorry for that." "I feel like I''m being teased because you admit your mistakes so easily. This is the price of wasting time." "Because of misunderstandings with my teammates, I almost died several times. If that doesn''t console you, I can take a few hits right now." Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo stuck out his left cheek. That''s not just talk. He thought that if the man wanted it that way, he would comply. The man clenched his fists. But soon he loosened his grip and scolded him for being ridiculous. "I really want to, but that''s okay. Look at you." The man clicked his tongue in disapproval. What could be enough to arouse his compassion? Only then did Kwon Taek Joo raise his hand and touch his face and body. That alone gave him a clear idea of his condition. His head was bandaged, and his forehead, cheekbones, earlobes, nape, and collarbone were also bandaged. Even the slightest twist made his back ache. So what about your fingers? Kwon Taek Joo remembered old memories and suddenly opened his arms. A bandage was wrapped around the ring finger, which was in severe pain. Truly so. "Finger.." "I heard it was a broken bone." That''s right, as expected at that time... huh? Kwon Taek Joo nodded and looked blankly at the man. "..What?" "Are you deaf in your ears too? I said it''s a broken bone. Is that the first time you got your finger bandaged?" "Isn''t it cut off?" "Is there any reason to cut it off? You''ve watched too many mafia movies." He shook his head with a puzzled expression. Before losing consciousness, Kwon Taek Joo received a strong shock from his ring finger. He clearly heard the clicking sound of the cigar cutter, and he thought he was going to cut his finger, but it was just a simple fracture. In addition, except for the ring finger, the other fingers are normal. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t believe it and turned his hand over. "But didn''t Morgan''s body have all ten fingers cut off?" "That''s true, but you''re alive and he''s dead. So you don''t have to be sad that your fingers are still attached in the same position." Kwon Taek Joo was confused. He thought that, just likeZhenya killed Morgan, Kwon Taek Joo would do the same. How are you still alive? "How did I get here?" "You were left on the riverbank near Olkhon Island. Just in time the Bogdanov family moved there and our agents who were still chasing them found you. The doctor said if it had been a little slower it would have damaged your heart." Is that so? Zhenya didn''t save Kwon Taek Joo himself, he just didn''t care if he lived or died. He didn''t even know that his joke had luckily saved his life, that he would try to save his miserable life. No, right? Kwon Taek Joo remembered the injection he was given before losing consciousness. He also felt the bandage on his neck. Really if it was ''polonium-210'' at that time, would he still be able to open his eyes? "I won Polonium-210?" "Who said that?" "At that time it was obvious that Zhenya..." "Zhenya , that crazy guy? Yevgeny Vissarionovich Bogdanov. I mean your best friend?" He raised his voice sarcastically. "Zhenya, Zhenya..." he repeated his name several times. "How can you call him by such a familiar name? Even his blood relatives don''t call him that." He clicked his tongue with a tired expression. What kind of intimate name? Kwon Taek Joo was about to get angry but he kept his mouth shut. A vague thought appeared in his mind. From the beginning, he introduced himself asZhenya. Of course he didn''t think that was his real name, because it wasn''t a common Russian name. So he thought it was just a nickname he often used. Because arms trading is his main job, he seems to hide his identity as a habit. In some ways, he resembled Kwon Taek Joo himself, and he felt a kinship with him. He also knew that ''Psych Bogdanov'' was scandalous. He still forgot that Psych had a real name, though. Additionally, Yevgeny''s nickname is ''Zegna. When learning Russian, he also learned about ethnic composition, history, society, life and culture. But nicknames don''t really matter. At that time, he did not know that Kwon Taek Joo would come to Russia or call Russians by nicknames. What was he thinking when he told him his intimate name? And what did he think when Kwon Taek Joo called him by that name without any suspicion? He had given him a clear hint as to his identity, but how interesting it was to see an idiot who believed he was a colleague. Climb back up walls, cycle in Siberia in the cold of winter and go through dusty air vents. Zhenya''s face, which was smiling like a devil, sparkled before his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth, his fist trembled. S~ea??h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Zhenya!" Chapter 26 - 2.13 Counterattack 2 Chapter 26: 2.13 Counterattack 2The pent-up anger exploded. The man stood and looked and shrugged. Kwon Taek Joo was furious. The bandage on his head loosened halfway, the injection solution hanging on the shelf fell down. and even the pillows and blankets on the bed slid to the floor. As if that didn''t alleviate his anger, he stomped his hand hard for a moment. "Calm down. You didn''t even get a P of polonium-210 that you were worried about. It was just a simple anesthetic but it was so strong that you couldn''t even wake up." when shocked." The man interrupted Kwon Taek Joo with a confused look. He bowed his head and took a quick breath. His flowing hair covered his eyes so he couldn''t see Kwon Taek Joo''s expression. It took a while before he opened his mouth and asked the man, "What is he doing?". "What?" "Yevgeni. that bastard... What the hell is he doing?" Kwon Taek Joo raised his head, his already sharp eyes now burning with anger. The man shrugged. "You''ve heard about the FSB, right?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded instead of answering. ''FSB'' is Russia''s Federal Security Service. Its predecessor was the KGB, an organization famous for its ''once you enter, you cannot return alive'' reputation in the former Soviet Union. They can investigate multiple organizations without a warrant and often gather necessary information by sending spies abroad or establishing shell companies. They even enjoy the privilege of not being monitored by other agencies. Official operations included counterintelligence and counterterrorism missions such as the National Intelligence Service, but unofficial rumors of kidnappings and assassinations of enemies were also widespread. ''FSB''? Although a bit hasty, Kwon Taek Joo had an almost certain hunch. If Zhenya belonged there, then as he said, he was a state official. He really doubted the national reputation of a country that would entrust work to such a madman. Kwon Taek Joo''s face suddenly darkened. The man did not pay attention and continued to explain. "There are two special forces under the FSB. Spetsgurpa Alpha and Vimpel. Among them, Spetsgurpa Alpha, commonly known as Alpha, is said to be composed of the most elite agents. Most of their troops are stationed in Moscow. It is a unit, but a group that is independent enough to have its own investigative powers. They are made up of five subunits, each with at least 150 to 250 members. The important thing is What''s next: 1 of those 5 units has only one member." Gathering only elite agents into each unit proves that the work that must be handled is very difficult and complicated. But is there anyone who can handle work alone that should be shared by many people? No way. When Kwon Taek Joo was still skeptical, the man firmly affirmed "It''s him." Kwon Taek Joo laughed loudly, Is that possible? Isn''t he saying ridiculous things to tease you? But it''s true that it has to be at that level to be worthy of being called ''Psych Bogdanov''. However, it was still beyond his understanding. Does the Russian government or ''FSB'' accept such deployment of manpower? The man again eliminated Kwon Taek Joo''s doubts with a simple question. "If it were you, would you want to be on the same team as him?" Never. Kwon Taek Joo did not like Zhenya from the beginning. If that damn headquarters hadn''t sent me the wrong photo,I wouldn''t have run into him. Even if he had to face him unexpectedly, he would still completely follow his instincts and stay far away from him. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t remember sleeping comfortably for a single day since meeting Zhenya. "It''s not for nothing that the word ''nuclear'' is attached to him. It''s like it will explode at any time even if it''s just a small mistake. I heard that if someone messes with him, Even his allies will be crushed to death." "And he will claim that it was a legitimate defense." Kwon Taek Joo joined the story with the tone that he was so familiar with. The man waved his hand to say that was it. By now, Kwon Taek Joo understood a little more. The reason why Zhenya saved him the day he came to this country disguised as Hiro Sakamoto. The reason why he met him again at the hotel where he had lunch with Russian representatives. At that time, Zhenya was talking to someone on the phone. "..Are not. I came but it must have been boring." His voice sounded like he was making excuses, maybe he was in the process of spying on his opponent. On the way to the bathroom, Kwon Taek Joo saw a Gazprom employee fiddling with his phone. That person said the representative didn''t show up at the luncheon? Let''s be clear. If it''s support, then what happened last time was enough." Sear?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zegna also said the same. In the end, it was because he was the third son of the Bogdanov family that he saved Kwon Taek Joo, or actually Hiro Sakamoto. He went to the hotel to ''represent'' at the request of his father or brother at Gazprom, only to meet Kwon Taek Joo right there. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was pushed out to accidentally discover unexpected interesting things. He looked meaningfully at the photo of himself on Hiro Sakamoto''s phone. Since he was a member of ''FSB'', he must have realized that this was not a normal situation. That is also the reason why Gazprom representatives did not appear at the luncheon that day. Puzzle pieces that rarely fit together have found their way into place. All of Zhenya''s odd behavior is also explained. As that bastard said, Kwon Taek Joo himself is completely lucky to be alive. There were countless moments when his life was threatened by him. Kwon Taek Joo organized his thoughts then suddenly sighed. Raising his head to face the man, he regained his usual calmness "So what''s your name?" "What does it mean to say it now?" "I''m Kwon Taek Joo." He paid no attention to the man''s scolding and asked for a handshake. The man patted Kwon Taek Joo''s hand with a dissatisfied expression. "Salman. Salman Basayev." When Kwon Taek Joo turned around a bit to shake hands, the muscles all over his body screamed, especially the area below his waist was in unbearable pain. Salman frowned and shook his head. What would he expect from a patient who just woke up from near death? Salman stood up and prepared to leave. Kwon Taek Joo looked puzzled. "Are you going?" "Can''t I go?" "From now on we have to plan the next steps." Salman made a funny face and then burst out laughing, Kwon Taek Joo suggested discussing the plan when he looked like a zombie. Even when his health was in the best condition. nothing changed. Did you ever think about giving up right after just saving your life from Psych Bogdanov? Or was there a concussion in the head that made him unconscious? Salman clicked his tongue. "You still don''t know? This operation has failed." "Are not....?" "You probably want to deny and save your mistake, but we don''t have any more chances. Support from headquarters will also stop when the treatment ends. So in order to receive proper treatment, you should Go back to your country." Kwon Taek Joo immediately tried to object, but Salman raised his hands as if he didn''t want to listen any more and then limped towards the door. He opened the door and stopped for a moment. As if thinking of something, Salman turned to Kwon Taek Joo and spoke meaningfully. "I guess he likes your butt a lot? But it looks like it''s torn." What? Before Kwon Taek Joo could ask, the door closed. He stared at the closed door. It was clearly a smile mixed between teasing and mocking. But where the hell is torn? Kwon Taek Joo thought over Salman''s words. He was tired and pale in the blink of an eye. Forgotten embarrassing memories quickly returned. He slammed his hand on the bed but still didn''t feel better. The roar suddenly rang out throughout the hospital. "You crazy bastard, I''ll kill you...!" ¡ª¡ª "Why?" Vladimir Vissarionovich raised his eyes inquiringly. Gazprom''s next boss visited the FSB headquarters early in the morning to meet a relative as an annual event. The main character, true to his name, is calmly scratching his ear. "It seems like someone is talking about me." No matter what he said, he couldn''t hear it and started saying bland words. Vladimir rubbed his throbbing head. His already wrinkled eyebrows furrowed even tighter. "Dad was very disappointed." "It''s not just one or two?" He mumbled childishly as if he didn''t know he was being scolded. Furthermore, that''s not wrong. How many years has it been since the family had to overcome the consequences that Zhenya caused? Vladimir thought that after puberty things would get better, that one day Zhenya would grow up, and over the past ten years he had always been optimistic and patient. It doesn''t matter what crazy things he does outside, as long as he doesn''t bring that problem into the house. But Zhenya is without limits. Vladimir clearly remembers the first time Zhenya laughed. It''s been quite a while. The white peacock that the youngest sister cherished suddenly disappeared. It is a bird that is carefully raised by creating an artificial habitat in the garden. Not long after, the poor bird was found in the corner of the garden. Its feathers had been plucked. Next to the staggering and collapsed peacock was Zhenya, wrapped in white feathers. "Look at me, brother. It pretends to be elegant but it''s ugly." That was when he was less than ten years old. Zhenya smiled brightly like he was so happy he couldn''t bear it. If he finds anything interesting, he will take pains to destroy it. After it was completely destroyed, he would quickly set his sights on something else. When Zhenya''s destructive instincts manifested in humans. Vladimir''s father made a decision. You booked a spot at the FSB and put him there. There. Zhenya''s violent tendencies are not a big deal. The problem is that sometimes work can''t cover him up. The same is the case this time. When Gazprom became the biggest beneficiary of the contract between Russia and Japan, dissatisfied forces appeared. Vladimir was worried that it would harm even the VIPs on the Japanese side. It was for this reason that he sent his direct secretary to pick up the Japanese staff who entered the country one day before the visiting delegation. It was only when he arrived at the hotel that he learned that the male escort had been bribed by a disturbing force. Vladimir immediately sent Zhenya to the airport. That''s a mistake. But it was a done deal anyway, and he shouldn''t have called Zhenya to the luncheon. Unfortunately, that morning, Vissarion collapsed from a chronic illness and things got complicated. Vladimir tried to coax him to go, but Zhenya did not attend the luncheon and played spy with a Korean intelligence agent. He openly took him to a place where only important people were invited and he even revealed secret information about ''SS-29''. anything else? There was a gunfight and hostage kidnapping right at the party. Just thinking about it gave Vladimir a headache and dizziness. He let out a sigh. "Baram''s stance became very awkward because of the commotion he caused. What should I do at the place where the president and ministers gather? What are you thinking? The person* has been betrayed by you." kidnapped that night and died... "Ah, come to think of it, how did you deal with him?" "...That Korean agent used you and him as hostages to escape and kill him." Zegna suddenly burst into laughter. "Who took who hostage?" he asked the confused Vladimir. Anyone who knows Zhenya would not believe such a brazen lie. However, it is only a countermeasure. Russia today is a society where money is power and power is law. The existence that proves that is the Bogdanov family. "Why didn''t you get rid of that Korean agent as soon as you knew he was a spy?" Vladimir reluctantly asked. He was also personally curious. An existence that Zhenya could hunt to his heart''s content had fallen into his hands, so why did he let it live forever? Even when spy Kwon Taek Joo was found with his naked body, no one could say anything. Even in Korea, where he was sent, the issue could not be raised. That is the fate of spies, and the practice of many intelligence agencies. Zegna shrugged differently. "I thought I should, but they trust me so much that playing together for a while wouldn''t be bad." "Just like that, you caused something so serious..." "It''s fun to watch them struggle to survive, so killing them so easily would be a waste. It''s boring." "..Alright, let''s put it that way. I found out he''s being treated at a small hospital in Irkutsk. If you''ve had enough, you should clean up. Why leave him alone?" alive?" "I didn''t mean to let him live. If I had discovered him a little later, he would have died." "Anyway, when you let him go, he was still breathing. Don''t you show off your brand by chopping off their fingers or their body and throwing it away? There''s never been an exception." Zegna smiled strangely at Vladimir. "So what are you worried about in the end? Are you worried that someone who is barely breathing will fight back? Don''t bother. He can''t act that cute." Zegna was decisive. Vladimir was about to say something more, but he closed his mouth. It''s already done, no matter how much we argue about it, it won''t change anything. Some secrets may have been leaked to the South Korean side but their operations were not carried out. They will not know that vigilance has become stricter. Zegna showed a bored expression and said, "That''s all you came to say?". In fact, there were several reasons why Vladimir wanted to meet him. As the eldest son of the Bogdanov family, trying to advise the family''s troublemaking third brother was a headache. But he has another purpose. "Is Anastasia still not done?" Zegna grinned at the straightforward question. A mocking look appeared in his curved eyes. Originally the relationship between the two was like this. Although they haven''t seen each other for a long time, they are still more curious about their work progress than about each other''s health, which is not surprising. Zegna did not answer the question but asked the opposite. "Who''s curious about that? Dad? The president? Or the other big hands?" Vladimir did not answer. Actually everyone is curious about the ''Second Anastasia'' that was created based on the design of ''Failed Anastasia'' Months ago, North Korea and Russia agreed to destroy all evidence related to Anastasia''s research. Designs created by leading weapons developers over the years are a top priority for being scrapped. All officials were massacred, weapons, arsenals, and blueprints under development were blown up. Of course only the Bogdanov family survived the brutal destruction of evidence. That''s the price to pay to keep quiet about all that forever. Rumors spread that, just as the Bogdanov family had not been purged, the blueprints were still out there somewhere. The Bogdanov family remained silent, but ironically, their unclear stance added to the fear of the outside world. Vladimir was also curious in his heart. Instead of seeing whether the blueprint existed or not. what he was interested in was whether they could rearrange it to create the real Anastasia. The only one who knows the answer is Zhenya. Because the current Anastasia blueprint exists in a form that only he can understand. Whenever he had the chance, Vladimir asked Zhenya when the complete ''Anastasia'' would be published. Zhenya appeared reserved and said that he would think about it when he felt like it. Vladimir remembered the conversation at that time and reaffirmed Zhenya''s intentions. "Are you still not satisfied with it?" "I think I''ll play with it as soon as this job is finished." "However?" "Looking back today, it seems better to leave it alone, right? It''s great to see everyone around like a dog in heat. Not long ago, someone said he would avenge his father. and ran to me. He didn''t even know that his arms and legs would be torn to pieces, but he kept barking that he was going to kill me... I wish you could see it too." Zegna seemed genuinely interested. Vladimir turned his head towards him, sighed and pressed his throbbing temples "..So did you kill Hong Yeo Wook?" Zegna did not answer. He only gave a vague smile with cold eyes and an excited expression. For some reason, he felt like the clothes he was wearing were being peeled off one by one, it felt like all the curtains around the man named Vladimir were being exposed. Frustrating. Vladimir absentmindedly stroked his collar. Zhenya leisurely observed and asked, "Do you regret it?" "What?" "Do you regret sending me there?" The question is vague but not difficult to answer. "I regret trusting you. I regret being optimistic that you would obediently do only what you were asked. Me and dad too." Although the family expressed disappointment and resignation, the laughter continued. "Regret as much as you want and stop drooling at other people''s things. It''s mine now. I have no intention of using it for the benefit of others. I''ll keep it until I get bored and will destroy it myself. Until now, I still think about brotherhood, but if it keeps going like that, I can''t sit still." Vladimir silently looked at Zhenya. Expressionless eyes passed between the two brothers. The space was filled with silence. Vladimir silently looked at Zhenya. Expressionless eyes passed between the two brothers. The space was filled with silence. Vladimir firmly walked up to Zhenya''s desk and snatched the phone from his hand. The phone that he hadn''t even touched was in the call connection state. The caller ID displayed on the screen was the same as the ID on his phone. "Are you still following the whole family now?" How silly. Zhenya makes no excuses. Vladimir stood up from his seat and casually opened the door. Vladimir left the office after threatening to sue Zhenya if he didn''t stop hacking phones. He walked out and slammed the door Peace finally came after noise pollution disappeared. Zhenya went to the window and watched Vladimir angrily climb into the car. The smile filled with teasing quickly disappeared. Zegna slowly turned around and looked around the empty office. The clock on the wall said that the morning was not over yet. "So boring, so boring." He muttered to himself. Strangely, time seems to pass slowly. Chapter 27 - 2.14 Counterattack 3 Chapter 27: 2.14 Counterattack 3The window rattled non-stop and then burst open, the wind that followed blew the curtains violently. In his sleep, Kwon Taek Joo pulled the blanket up to his neck, but the cold seemed to penetrate deep into his skin, making him shiver. If he continued to sleep, he would probably become a frozen corpse the next morning. Finally despite the discomfort, Kwon Taek Joo woke up. His whole body felt cold when his feet touched the floor. He thought his body was quite flexible, but maybe he was wrong. After waking up, his physical strength also decreased and it took him quite a long time to recover like before. Kwon Taek Joo trudged to the window and closed the doors completely. Only then did the wind stop blowing, but his shoulders were still shaking. He half-awake and half-dreamed and returned to bed. The mattress was so hard and the blanket so short that he had to curl up as much as possible to cover himself. The single room with very poor facilities, if he returns to the country safely, Kwon Taek Joo will definitely settle the matter with the headquarters. He sat up, wetting his throat, then lay down again. Now he just wants to rest without thinking about anything. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes and tried to sleep but suddenly his hair flew up. Perhaps it was due to the steam escaping from the humidifier, but he gradually realized that everything from his hair to the hospital gown, the IV tube, and the blankets began to shake violently. The window is obviously closed, right? Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes with a puzzled expression. He was startled and raised himself up. The window that had been tightly closed suddenly opened again. Someone''s silhouette was reflected through the fluttering curtains. Even though he couldn''t see his face. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he knew who it was. His heart was pounding. The blood vessels of the entire body also beat violently. "Is this your cave?" He grinned and jumped through the window with his long legs. Kwon Taek Joo''s hospital room is on the 4th floor but that doesn''t seem to be a problem for him. He lifted the curtain and walked over with a characteristically scary smile. Kwon Taek Joo instinctively took a step back but soon a cold and hard wall hit his back. There''s no way back anymore. "Ah, how... That bastard is here, keogh...!" The voice came out broken. Because he suddenly reached out and strangled him. It seemed that his body had grown several times larger and his power to suffocate the breath was similar to that of a monster. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t stand the pressure, his eyes bulged and his mouth fell open. He struggled to escape his arms, but the bastard didn''t budge. He just whispered in a relaxed tone. "If you''re tired of playing, you should leave, right? As expected, you should deal with it neatly." He licked his lips and looked down at Kwon Taek Joo, his eyes glowing like those of a giant reptile. He was breathing rapidly and could barely open his eyelids that he was trying to close. His eyes glowed red. That is desire, the red color of desire. "You''ve heard enough, now I have to say goodbye, right?" As soon as Kwon Taek Joo felt danger, his body flipped over. The hand that was strangling him kept pressing hard on the back of his neck. His head was helplessly buried deep in the pillow, his pants had slipped off, something hot and hard touched his tense buttocks. Kwon Taek Joo struggled desperately. "Can''t you stop? If it''s rape then you''ve done enough, you bastard!" He tilted his head to watch Kwon Taek Joo scream angrily and then teasingly rubbed the hot flesh against his hip bone. "You call that rape? I like it too. How many times have you had orgasms?" A terrible pressure was placed on Kwon Taek Joo''s spine along with a cold mocking laugh. His lungs and intestines felt crushed. He panicked and screamed in extreme pain, even though he knew that if anyone ran to him, it would be useless. But the higher he raised his voice, the more buried his voice became as if he were falling deeper into water or drowning in a thick swamp. No one heard and no one came to help. A feeling of despair came. ¡ª¡ª "..Oh my God!" Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and opened his eyes. He could see the familiar ceiling. In the blink of an eye, all the pores opened, the hair on his whole body stood up, and his trembling hands touched the mattress. Everything was still the same, he was still lying in the hospital bed and the window was still closed. Just a dream. Kwon Taek Joo lay unconsciously groping every corner of his body, without any special pain except the uncomfortable feeling like he had just been strangled. He wiped his sweaty face and sighed. Even if I dream, do I have to dream like that? It took a while for Kwon Taek Joo to sit up. Sweat fell from his face, his throat dry from labored breathing. Suddenly his mood dropped and his head felt heavy. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he had to take a shower. He was getting out of bed when he suddenly stopped. Something in the blanket was standing up straight. No way. Kwon Taek Joo quickly lifted the blanket. Sure enough, his front was bulging like it was about to explode. Damn, damn, damn. Kwon Taek Joo jumped up from his seat and went to the bathroom. He didn''t take off his clothes but turned on the shower to cool his excited body. Crazy. That''s crazy. How could it be made in such a nightmare? Not once or twice. If it was just today, Kwon Taek Joo could have argued that his body was reacting abnormally to fear. But he has no excuse for this recurring phenomenon. Kwon Taek Joo banged his head in embarrassment. Before losing consciousness, it was clear that the drug Zhenya injected into him was not a simple sleeping pill, otherwise there was no way he could have such an erection naturally. Zhenya''s face suddenly appeared in his mind. The face Kwon Taek Joo saw in his dream and the cold smile appeared vividly again, His fists clenched under the cold water. As Salman said, it was lucky that he kept his little life. Kwon Taek Joo knows he cannot win against Zhenya. Besides wealth and power, he also has extraordinary physical strength. Even though he knew that in advance, Kwon Taek Joo''s anger still could not be appeased. If this continues he will die of anger. Anger aside, confronting Zhenya directly in a body that had not yet recovered was a reckless act. The hotter his heart is, the more Kwon Taek Joo has to keep his head cold. Hasty judgments only ruin things. Is there any way to get revenge on him? Is there any way to deal a fatal blow to someone with the strength of a monster and a sharp head? Kwon Taek Joo racked his brain and thought. Past memories are brought back with a profound sense of deja vu. "...It is very strong and nothing can kill it." It was a story he heard recently. Who said that? There is a character who always appears in Russian folk tales. Koshichei-Immortal. It''s Zhenya. That was definitely the story he told me. Thinking about the narrator and the circumstances in which the story appeared, Kwon Taek Joo''s face heated up in an unnecessarily vivid memory. S~ea??h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He shook his head to get rid of nonsense thoughts and then slowly repeated what he had said. Of course Koshichei also has weaknesses. Only Koshichei knows that.'' What else did he say? "In the end he was killed by a brave warrior. If you''re passionate about beauty and don''t hesitate to brag about your weaknesses, that''s really stupid." He also added. "No matter how you look at it, you''re not a beauty, but I''ll tell you Koshichei''s weakness" Weaknesses of Immortals. Kwon Taek Joo goes back a little further and examines the circumstances of that subject. Before mentioning Koshichei, Zhenya talked about Russian princess Anastasia. He had previously told Kwon Taek Joo that the development of the weapon he was looking for, ''Anastasia'', had failed. Anastasia does not exist, Anna Anderson, the last princess impersonator and Koshichei''s weakness-the Immortal. Each story that seemed to have no special connection began to connect little by little in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. After production of "Anastasia" failed, everyone involved in its development was massacred. However, only the Bogdanov family survived. Why weren''t they purged? Also, did Anastasia, hailed as the first deadly weapon, really disappear forever without a trace? Or, like the surviving Bogdanov family, does Anastasia also exist somewhere, in some form? "Anastasia? I don''t know why you''re looking for me." When Kwon Taek Joo met ''Sonchef''s'' Boris, he replied that he didn''t know why. He even glanced at Zhenya with an incomprehensible smile. There were quite compatible looks between those two people. What is it? Something that Kwon Taek Joo himself has been missing all this time. It seemed like something was about to pop into his head. Kwon Taek Joo turned off the shower, memories of the past sprouting like mushrooms after rain filled his quiet head. Psych Bogdanov. In Russia, he''s like a nuclear man. ''It''s not for nothing that the word ''nuclear'' is attached to him." Nuclear. Nuclear Man The man is no different from a nucleus. Kwon Taek Joo tried to develop his thoughts step by step and then blinked. Something powerful pierced his mind. Why didn''t you think of it? The bottom of the lamp is usually the darkest place. What you''re looking for is often found right under your nose. Perhaps this time that truth will also work for Kwon Taek Joo. He rushed out of the bathroom with crazy thoughts. The place Kwon Taek Joo visited was a library in Irkutsk. Pitiful eyes glanced at a stranger in a hospital gown. I do not care. Kwon Taek Joo was worried that the documents in a place with old facilities might be too few or only partially available, but unexpectedly, there were high-quality documents inside. He uses a desktop computer to patiently access the Internet at snail''s pace to retrieve information. When the access website finally appeared, Kwon Taek Joo clicked on the satellite image. He entered the address ''Bogdanov villa in Moscow'' into the search bar at the top. Wait a moment, a photo appears. It is a picture of the Bogdanov mansion and the surrounding streets. Kwon Taek Joo zoomed all the way. It was difficult to determine exactly due to the image quality, but he could distinguish between the main building, the outer garden, the central garden, and the main gate. Kwon Taek Joo muttered to himself, pointing at that blurry photo. "An uninhabited castle, a tree the same age as Koshichei, a jewelry box in the south and small jewelry boxes inside.." Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes suddenly opened even wider. His heart was also beating erratically. Maybe it''s not. Could be just a coincidence. You should have checked more to be sure. Kwon Taek Joo left the computer and went to the bookshelf. He strode past several bookshelves and stopped at the architecture section. He took all the documents related to housing styles in recent years. Kwon Taek Joo went through the list of selected books and selected the ones that mentioned the Bogdanov mansion. In Kwon Taek Joo''s hand, there are only five or six books left. He opened the page pointed to in the table of contents. Photos of the Bogdanov mansion and detailed descriptions of the architectural style used to construct the building, the designer and the materials used in its construction come out beautifully. The image of the villa was taken in many different photos. Some are lush spring backdrops, some are winter landscapes with bare tree branches. There is also a book showing photos that appear to have been taken at night while also explaining the local lighting around the building. "..." Kwon Taek Joo looked at the photos over and over and then stopped. He thought it was an illusion but he checked again and it was clear. No matter when the photos were taken or from what angle, there was one room among the mansion''s countless rooms that always had the lights on and the curtains always open. Found it. Koshichei''s heart. Chapter 28 - 2.15 Counterattack 4 Chapter 28: 2.15 Counterattack 4When Kwon Taek Joo visited, Salman had just removed his bandage. The doctor in charge repeatedly reminded him that he had not fully recovered, so he should absolutely not be abused. The doctor only went out after Salman promised that he would obey. Salman looked at Kwon Taek Joo and slowly moved his arm. "The nurse said she hasn''t seen you since dawn. Where have you been?" "Are you really going to end it like this?" As soon as he was asked, Salman did not answer but just stopped and stared at Kwon Taek Joo and shrugged. "What if it doesn''t end?" "If you complete this mission, what benefits will you receive?" "You''re so unreasonable. What''s the use of that?" "Try it, maybe it might be useful." Salman looked at Kwon Taek Joo with a puzzled look. For some reason, Kwon Taek Joo looked very excited. Did something happen last night? He hummed in response because he thought that if he ignored it, he would be bothered more. "We will get independent funding." "From the Chechen side?" He nodded to the next question. Zhenya said that a Russian was involved in this operation to get the blueprints of Anastasia''. He said it was something worth doing, but it was hard to believe. Because it would be dangerous enough to risk one''s life, and even if the mission was completed, it would still be selling the country for glory. Surely Salman''s story is much more convincing than someone like him who already has rights. It is understandable that Zhenya and Salman know each other. His ''FSB'' is periodically monitoring the movement in Chechnya. An Alpha unit was even stationed in Chechnya under the pretext of preventing unrest. It is possible to guess the extent of Salman''s influence if South Korea and the US privately contact each other and even involve them in the operation. That will be a thorn in the side of the Russian government and even Zhenya is no different from their natural enemy. However, after knowing Salman''s real identity, a question arose. Chief Lim has instructed to keep Anastasia''s blueprints confidential if possible. The same request will be made to Salman. Then when the design falls into the hands of the two of them, who will own it? Korea sent Kwon Taek Joo? Or did the US make a deal with Salman? "If we get Anastasia, what happens next?" The next moment, Salman suddenly pulled out his gun. A black gun was aimed at Kwon Taek Joo. "I have one more mission." Kwon Taek Joo without falling, even his outstretched arms did not waver. Those were the eyes of a sniper. A story appeared in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind when facing the cold face that seemed to want to pull the trigger before his eyes. ''Do you think you''re hated over there anyway? Did the so-called National Intelligence Service send you my photo by mistake?... There''s no such thing.'' At that time, Kwon Taek Joo did not pay too much attention to what he said. He couldn''t even afford to consider that. ''It''s like you knew about the corruption of your superiors that they couldn''t reveal.'' That''s just Zhenya''s guess, but it''s good to be able to confirm it on this occasion. "Is that a directive from the US? Or Korea?" "I cannot speak." "Can''t you even grant a dying man''s wish?" Kwon Taek Joo persuaded. Salman, who didn''t seem to budge even when pricked by the needle, lowered the gun and smiled. "It''s over, why are you asking?" "Since it''s over, I asked." "If you really want to know, it was a directive from Korea. The US side will operate independent funding, now that I think about it I''m quite curious, what the hell did you do back home? You did it. Why did you get sent all the way here and almost get killed?" "That''s it. I also want to know." "If you really want to know, it was a directive from Korea. The US side will operate independent funding, now that I think about it I''m quite curious, what the hell did you do back home? You did it. Why did you get sent all the way here and almost get killed?" "That''s it. I also want to know." Salman threw a puzzled look. Actually, even Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t understand why he became the subject of elimination. He thought about returning to Korea and asking questions. But there is something more important right now. Kwon Taek Joo remembered why he came to meet Salman. He still hasn''t organized his thoughts so his story has no beginning or end. "Zhenya.. No, that Psych guy shot and killed a politician at a party at his house. I thought he would be wanted immediately but in the end nothing happened. If he was officially invited to come Isn''t the Bogdanov estate quite an influential person? How is this possible?" "If it was that news, I would have heard it too. It''s hard to believe, but they are Bogdanov." "So he leaked state secrets knowing clearly that I was a foreign spy? Is that also because ''they are Bogdanov''?" "State secret? It depends on how serious it is." "I heard Russia is developing a new ballistic missile. Like ''SS 29''? There was a serious error but a North Korean engineer recently came and solved the problem. I thought that''s it." was ''Anastasia. That''s why I chased him all the way to Olkhon Island." Salman listened silently, looking puzzled. Even though he knew the opponent was an agent of another country, he still took the opponent to a party and even murdered an influential politician for seemingly revealing secrets related to the latest weapon. not enough. In addition, he did not hesitate to act against the country when he became Kwon Taek Joo''s colleague. But Salman also did not hear that Zhenya had been disciplined or reprimanded at all. Even if you are a member of the Bogdanov family, can you not be affected like that? Salman''s face looked doubtful, Kwon Taek Joo brought up a possibility. "There must be a reason why no one can touch him no matter what he does?" "No matter what you do, you can''t touch it?" "Like, ''He has Anastasia." Salman was surprised by the sudden inference and then quickly objected strongly as if it were absurd. "No way. That''s the type of weapon that Russia and North Korea have been working on for many years. There''s no way they''d let a kid under 30 years old take over it." Kwon Taek Joo shows the documents he brought to Salman, brief articles about various incidents and accidents. "All of the deceased listed are people who participated in the development of ''Anastasia''. Coincidentally, they all died on the same day, in an unavoidable accident or in a way that caused death cannot be determined." "You mean this is all murder?" "If everything Psych says is true, think about it. ''Anastasia'', what would happen if development failed. Russia and North Korea were hoping that the news wouldn''t be leaked. leaked out. A unique lethal weapon. Just the title alone, the unfinished ''Anastasia'' has made the whole world worried. The fact that you and I face each other like this is proof. On the contrary, if ''Anastasia'' cannot be completed, the consequences will not only be limited to its failure, but even Anastasia"''s inherent power will be damaged, even if it develops again later. difficult to be taken as seriously as before. Perhaps that''s why they tried to cover up not only the results of the research but also the fact that they had started developing it again. To do that, they would have to calm down, oppress those who know the identity and development achievements of ''Anastasia" Salman''s eyebrows drew closer together. Kwon Taek Joo looked at his suspicious eyes and nodded in conclusion. "All of them were killed so that ''No one can reveal that Anastasia''s development failed and no one can develop such a weapon again" Salman sighed deeply. "They had to deal with dozens of people in a short period of time without leaving any clues. Who was in charge of that?" "If that''s the case, of course it''s the FSB..." "They can''t send anyone away because this is a special situation." When Kwon Taek Joo mentioned it, only one person appeared in Salman''s mind. He is the sole member of Alpha Unit 3, a special unit of the ''FSB'' and the third son of the Bogdanov family, which provided a huge amount of money for the development of ''Anastasia'' . There seemed to be no other person better suited for the final phase of research, the purge mission. Perhaps the government intends to wipe out Zhenya and his family as soon as he returns after completing all his work. But they couldn''t. The Bogdanov family has remained since then. No, their influence seems to be much stronger than before. That''s the most confusing part. After all, why is the Kremlin holding such a time bomb? Perhaps the reason is Zhenya. For example, if he didn''t completely follow instructions to massacre all the developers and even get rid of the blueprints, or if the failed blueprints fell into Zhenya''s hands and let''s say he figured it out. the cause of the problem based on his extensive knowledge of weapons, then the answer appeared. It is said to be a powerful enough weapon to rebalance global hegemony. If it''s in Zhenya''s hands, even the Kremlin can''t do anything to him. They had no choice but to turn a blind eye no matter what he did. "But that''s just my guess..." Salman was about to object but Kwon Taek Joo offered something else. It was a local newspaper in Irkutsk published yesterday. Featured on the front page is a short article about a mysterious body found in Lake Baikal with a photo attached. The unidentified deceased is believed to be an Asian and was found with torn limbs. Because there was no evidence of using a blade to destroy the body, it was tentatively concluded that the body had been attacked by a ferocious animal. Salman''s face was bewildered after reading the article. "What about this?" "This is Hong Yeo Wook, a North Korean engineer called in to fix the ''SS-29'' error. I saw him at the Bogdanov family''s villa. And..." "And?" "Anastasia''s developer list also includes his father." "What do you mean?" "Hong Yeo Wook came here not only to fix ''SS-29'' but also to meet with Psych. Sergei will call the Bogdanov family and government officials once the equipment problem is fixed. Really.", and perhaps he recognized Psych from the moment he boarded the Trans-Siberian train. They just pretended not to know each other. We finally met again at Sergei''s villa on Olkhon Island, and I wondered if the situation would be reversed when he tries to avenge his deceased father? Looking back, it seems like Hong Yeo Wook often pays attention to Psych." If Hong Yeo Wook had no other reason to attack Zhenya, then his death would prove the speculations from now on. Kwon Taek Joo''s head, which was full of complicated thoughts, was clear. Kwon Taek Joo confidently asked Salman, who was just reading the newspaper. "Let''s cooperate. Then I will help you receive the promised support money." Kwon Taek Joo is full of confidence in his tone and expression. Is there anywhere Salman can trust? After a moment, he looked at Kwon Taek Joo and shook his head. "I told you, right? The headquarters'' support ends up being the hospital expenses." "I don''t need support from headquarters." "What are you talking about? What will you do with a weak body and no support?" "Don''t worry. You can move better now, right? You don''t need to worry about weapons either." "That''s not the only problem. What you''re trying to do is a single action outside of the campaign. If you fail, that''s the end, and if you''re unlucky, you die. Do you think headquarters will reclaim your body?" "Did you prepare for all that when you came here?" "That''s right. But the situation back then was much better than it is now. Why don''t you stop and face reality? They already know who we are. If we were noticed, we would be followed immediately." immediately. Besides I don''t even know where that damn ''Anastasia'' is." "Let''s see. As for how to defeat the immortal Koshichei, that Psych guy already told me about it." "What was that again?" "I think I know where the blueprints are." Kwon Taek Joo assured us that by opening the satellite image he had been wearing since now. It appears to be Bogdanov''s mansion. Salman had seen it once before, so he was familiar with it. But what does this mean? Salman''s expression became more confused. Kwon Taek Joo pointed to different places in the photo and told an unexpected story. "Psych said that there was an uninhabited castle in a vast land, and that there was no way to get there, either on horseback or on foot, and that I couldn''t get there without being a fish or a flying beast. In that story, the vast land seems to mean the estate, and the uninhabited castle seems to mean the Bogdanov mansion. Psych has told a similar story before, that their villa has double and triple security and very tight surveillance, so I cannot enter without going through official visitation procedures." On the night of the secret party held at Bogdanov''s mansion, Zhenya said so. ''Isn''t this a strange place? It''s so crowded now, but normally there''s no one.'' Kwon Taek Joo dismissed it at the time as a meaningless statement but he did not expect it to be such a great suggestion. Of course he''s still not 100% sure. Kwon Taek Joo is just trying to connect each little piece as if putting a puzzle together. "And there is a very tall old tree growing in the castle, they say that the age of the tree is equal to the age of Koshichei. Bogdanov''s mansion was decorated with many trees in the garden, but only four birches were planted around corners. Since ancient times, the Slavs planted a young birch tree when a child was born, right? Coincidentally, there were 4 children in the Bogdanov family and there was a villa to the south of the trees So, the ''big jewel box'' placed on the south side of the tree must mean the building itself. Each room that fills it is a ''little jewel box''. Intersecting lines are drawn on the satellite image to divide the building into a set of small squares. Each square represents a room. "Psych says there is a jewelry box that everyone is looking for, but it''s neither too much nor too little compared to the other boxes. If there''s a blueprint of ''Anastasia'' somewhere in the mansion, I think it would be right there. He said that Koshichei''s heart may or may not be in there. That means that even if the room is found, the blueprint may not be found right away, right? In the room, right? there''s a special device or something like that." "So, Psych told you where such a design was?" Salman was skeptical. Kwon Taek Joo nodded in response. A sigh came from Salman. "Hey, calm down. What was he thinking, revealing such information?" "I don''t know about that either, but he has never revealed false information. He''s always been so complacent. Kwon Taek Joo was not discouraged by the sincere advice. He made an attractive offer to Salman. sea??h th§× nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I won''t force you to work with me. If you''re not interested or not interested, you can refuse, but I can''t give you much time so decide quickly. If you really have the ability to design, I''ll give it to you." Salman remained silent. Dangerous and reckless. But he also doesn''t want to give up right away. Salman cannot go home empty-handed after such a failure. "Are you sure there are blueprints in that room?" Salman did not give up his doubts until the end. Kwon Taek Joo shrugged. "When I broke into Bogdanov''s mansion, I saw one of the rooms. Everyone was at a party so all the lights in the room were on, all the curtains were drawn. But only the curtains were there." in that room it was wide open. There was no furniture in the room, no one was there either. Of course it could just be a coincidence. So I searched for more pictures of the villa. Yes can be seen at a glance. All year round, day or night, that room is always lit. Whether the weather is nice or not, the curtains are always open. Recalling the memory of that room, it seems suspicious. At that time, I was a bit confused so I lurked in front of the room''s window. My shadow fell on the floor and something sparkled, even though it was only fleeting. Maybe it was moonlight, but it was different from the light. moon. There''s something in that room." Kwon Taek Joo''s conversation with Zhenya at that time also appeared clearly in his mind. ''Why are you hanging there?'' When he looked at Kwon Taek Joo climbing outside the 3rd floor, he said that clearly. He wondered if he would mind him wandering around in front of that room. Kwon Taek Joo stared at Salman as if he had finished what he needed to say. Salman, who was nervous, suddenly stood up and took the gun. "I''m really crazy too." Chapter 29 - 2.16 Counterattack 5 Chapter 29: 2.16 Counterattack 5"What''s here?" Salman looked disgruntled at the empty surroundings. From Irkutsk to Moscow, then from Moscow to the suburbs, they move nonstop to find the arsenal that Kwon Taek Joo promised. But when he got out of the car, all around was an unpaved road and not a single streetlight. Kwon Taek Joo walked forward without explanation. A moment later, the two arrived in front of a dilapidated building. Salman watched blankly, laughed and said, "It''s unbelievable." "Not here, right?" Kwon Taek Joo pulled up the shutter, shattering that modest hope. As soon as Salman entered, a cloud of dust rose, causing him to cough violently. Leaving Salman coughing behind, Kwon Taek Joo held a lamp to shine on the floor. The light spread into a small groove. Just like Zhenya did. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the notch and slowly lifted it back up. Another cloud of dust rose and then slowly subsided. Below it, a staircase appeared. Kwon Taek Joo walked first down the dark stairs, Salman followed step by step in confusion, looking left and right. Perhaps because he moved carefully, the stairs seemed endless, it took a while before Salman''s feet touched the flat floor. The surroundings were still pitch black. Kwon Taek Joo was standing nearby, and suddenly left. Salman was about to rush after him when the lights inside turned on with a clicking sound. The vision opened quickly with an empty bookshelf appearing, but without a single book, only a dial phone. "What is it? Did you come all this way just to show me this?" Kwon Taek Joo passed by Salman who was standing dumbfounded in front of the phone. Once you pay attention to something, it is not easily forgotten. The password Zhenya entered was the same. Of course, if he takes precautions against Kwon Taek Joo and comes back here to change the password, this place will become useless to him. But Kwon Taek Joo has a hunch that that won''t happen. 3,9,1,6. Kwon Taek Joo took turns dialing the numbers. Finally, the wheel engages the number ''5'' and spins and stops moving Just then, a familiar mechanical sound rang out. Salman was standing there in a depressed mood, fearfully pulling out his gun. Busy eyes are alert to the surroundings. Empty bookshelves appeared one after another after that. Unlike the confused Salman, Kwon Taek Joo was very calm. No. his back stiffened "I underestimated this." He muttered dissatisfied and then examined the high-tech weapons that appeared in front of him. Kwon Taek Joo randomly took a few rifles and pistols and threw them at Salman. He also gathered various explosives, including TNT into his bag. Something was flashing, Kwon Taek Joo turned around. A surveillance camera is flashing a red light. Kwon Taek Joo immediately raised his middle finger and pulled the trigger towards the reflective lens. "There are two approaches worth trying. One is to go against the drainage pipe in the mansion that connects to the river, or infiltrate from above." The only chance of survival is the first. If they tried to infiltrate from above, they would end up like a honeycomb before even setting foot in the mansion. The sewers of the Bogdanov mansion are connected to the river that flows through the center of Moscow. The water was quite deep so both had to wear diving suits. As the crow flies, it seems like there''s nothing to worry about. However, Salman has other worries. "Even if we get close to the mansion, from then on it will be very difficult. We will have to turn the fan to swirl the flow at the manhole. If we are lucky enough to get out of there, the passage inside may be wide enough to carry diving equipment." The two of them looked down at the meandering river at the same time. The water flowed so fast it seemed like it could swallow them up at any moment. "..Surely there is another way?" Kwon Taek Joo asked boredly. Salman coldly shook his head. He sighed deeply, put on his diving suit, and without anyone telling anyone, they jumped into the river. The heavy body sank deeply and then emerged again. Kwon Taek Joo followed Salman before he could catch his breath. He nodded and led the way to the river. Kwon Taek Joo swam while checking the device on his wrist. The red dot indicates the current location of the two, gradually approaching the sewer pipe of the Bogdanov mansion. The closer you get to the target point, the more intense the water flow becomes. That means there is a device nearby that is doubling the flow rate. That is the propeller that Salman mentioned. The reality that Kwon Taek Joo faced right before his eyes was truly colossal. The two propellers rotate in front and rear respectively. Just looking at it made me feel tired, but Kwon Taek Joo kept calm to measure the rotation speed. If the timing is right, they can get through it safely. If they were wrong in a split second, they would be crushed beyond belief and there would be no guarantee of life or death. This time Kwon Taek Joo went first. He kept enough distance to avoid being sucked into the propeller and closely observed its movements. The two of them had to make good use of this short moment. He adjusted his rapid breathing and stepped closer to the fan blades. The powerful rotation force causes the surrounding water to quickly spin. Kwon Taek Joo tried to hold on and pulled out the underwater gun. The plan was to stop the propellers from operating at least temporarily, by inserting a high-strength iron harpoon between the interlocking blades. Kwon Taek Joo quietly aimed the gun. He focused all his attention on one point, the propeller seemed to slow down for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate to pull the trigger. The harpoon bounced out of the gun barrel and quickly rushed through the water, crashing between the propeller blades. The force of the swirling water was intense for a while and then the rotation of the propeller slowed down little by little. Then it completely stopped. Was it successful? "..." As if punishing that hasty judgment, the propeller started to rotate again. The rope connected to the harpoon quickly coiled and pulled Kwon Taek Joo''s body away. He quickly let go of the gun but to no avail, his body was swept away by an uncontrollable force and sucked into a giant propeller. Iron wings swirled a large amount of water appearing right before Kwon Taek Joo''s eves. He unconsciously closed his eyes. At the last moment of intuition, the rumbling sound of friction rang out and at the same time a heavy pain rushed through my whole body. Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes, a strange scene appeared. His body thought it would be cut by the propeller, but it was floating somewhere. The surrounding rushing water also became quiet. The propeller kept making mechanical noises like a whale''s roar but was no longer working properly. Kwon Taek Joo gasped and turned his head to see that his oxygen tank was stuck between the two propeller blades. Kwon Taek Joo felt like 10 years of his life had just quickly passed, the tense and contracted cells immediately relaxed. But there was no time to relieve himself, so he quickly took out the oxygen tank he was carrying and signaled Salman on the other side to come. Salman immediately turned against the current and swam towards Kwon Taek Joo. Just as Salman arrived on the other side of Kwon Taek Joo, the propeller suddenly roared and began to crush the trapped oxygen tank. Salman falls into a dangerous situation. Kwon Taek Joo quickly pressed the button on the watch on his wrist. A long rope came out and wrapped around Salman''s arm. Just before the propeller touched his body, Kwon Taek Joo wrapped the rope. Salman narrowly escaped the propeller, so tense that his arms and legs seemed to lose all strength. Salman, who almost died, gave his oxygen mask back to Kwon Taek Joo. He took a full breath of oxygen and swam again. The two finally reached the sewer entrance, which was their destination. The pipes are divided into several sections: kitchen, bathroom, garage and garden. On the day he came here for the party, when escaping from the mansion with Zhenya''s help, Kwon Taek Joo discovered that there was a secret passage inside. If you can find the starting point, the path to the destination will no longer be a problem. First of all, in terms of circulation, the two of them turned to the drainage pipe on the garage side. Immediately after that, a long and wide corridor appeared overhead, the end of which had to be connected to the manhole outside the garage. Salman took off his heavy diving suit and took out the equipment he had prepared. After silently signaling, Kwon Taek Joo alone climbed up the simple ladder mounted on the wall. He tried pushing the manhole cover on his head but it was firmly fixed and wouldn''t budge. Kwon Taek Joo took out a card and inserted it into the slot of the lid. The card quickly swelled and lifted the heavy lid. Through the gap, Kwon Taek Joo could see the bodyguards going in and out of the garden. Kwon Taek Joo was only 2-3 meters away from the parking garage. If you''re lucky, you might not get caught, but you have to be very careful, you need to avoid the eyes of the bodyguards for a moment. There was something rolling on the grass in the garden. Round objects like beads simultaneously rolled to the feet of the guards. The bodyguard unsuspectingly looked down at something that had just touched his shoe. Immediately, a strong, blinding light emitted from the beads. The guards simultaneously covered their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, their vision turned white and they couldn''t see anything in front of them. Kwon Taek Joo took the opportunity to flip the curved lid and get out. In an instant, he ran to the front of the garage and leaned close to the wall and pressed the open/close button outside, the garage shutters opened smoothly. "Ah!" But inside the garage there are also bodyguards. The sudden intrusion surprised him. Kwon Taek Joo quickly kicked the confused bodyguard''s rifle. The long barrel of the gun just hit him straight in the face. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his nose and gave him another blow on the back of his head. The bodyguard quickly collapsed without even groaning. He grabbed his intercom and went inside. Perhaps because it was a weekday afternoon, the inside of the mansion was unusually quiet. Although the occasional sound of plates clinking could be heard from the kitchen, there was little sign of other people. Thanks to that, Kwon Taek Joo was able to climb the stairs easily. As soon as he reached the third floor, Kwon Taek Joo leaned his back against the wall in the hallway and placed a microscopic device on the floor. The object, which imitates the appearance of a bug, is a spy device that uses a built-in camera to transmit panoramic images of the area to a connected account. Salman checked the video under the manhole and suddenly warned Kwon Taek Joo. -Wait a minute. Kwon Taek Joo stood closer to the wall. He even stopped breathing and noticed a presence from the other side of the hallway. A moment later, there was a sign that a door was opening and closing. There was the sound of human footsteps. There were at least two of them, all female. The women chatting in the hallway quickly split into different directions. -Right now. Kwon Taek Joo followed Salman''s instructions and quickly moved. He avoided the cleaning supplies lining the hallway and went inside the nearby door to find the secret passage. A hollow sound echoed from under the sofa but there was no way in the room that was connected to the hallway, only the main door was not locked but it seemed to be designed for exit. -Hurry up. Help is coming. Kwon Taek Joo''s heart beat rapidly and Salman''s urging was added. There''s no other way. Kwon Taek Joo knelt on the floor and sat down. He cut the floor using a special device equipped with a silencer and then slowly lifted up the neatly cut piece of floor. Sure enough, a secret passage appeared. He jumped in and covered the floor again. The cutout is inserted into the floor perfectly, hiding the cutout. Kwon Taek Joo quickly strode across the aisle. A moment later the bodyguards'' intercom began to buzz. They seemed to be aware of the intruder''s presence. Kwon Taek Joo hurriedly walked and ran forward. A dead end appeared. He groped every inch of the dark walls. Busy hands caught on a hook. Kwon Taek Joo pulled hard, the wall on the blocked side slowly lowered. A staircase appeared. Kwon Taek Joo walked up the stairs, a handle that looked like a bank safe was waiting for him. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the handle and turned it with all his strength. A metal plate that seemed to be unable to move slowly rolled up and divided the wall in front of Kwon Taek Joo into two sides. The bookshelves that filled the wall were opened and an emergency door appeared through the gap. The room at the end of the third floor that Kwon Taek Joo entered was still the same as the first time he saw it. The curtains were still open and all the lights were on even though it was midday. Something is quite strange. Kwon Taek Joo walked over and closed the door, then he pulled all the window curtains. Kwon Taek Joo then tried to turn off the lights inside, but he couldn''t find the switch anywhere. Meanwhile, the bodyguards were rushing into the hallway. Kwon Taek Joo has no other choice. He pulled out his pistol and shot at the light bulb. The next moment, an unbelievable scene unfolded before his eyes. "This.." When all the light was covered, an existence that tried to hide was exposed. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly gasped. He felt like he finally understood why the lights were always on in this room and why the curtains were never closed. Even the reason why the heart of the immortal ''Koshchei'' may or may not be in the jewelry box. Inside the room, a long line made of fluorescent material continued, forming a single shape. The room itself is Anastasia''s design. S§×ar?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chapter 30 - 2.17 Counterattack 6 Chapter 30: 2.17 Counterattack 6In the corner of the 2nd floor of the FSB headquarters, there is a sign saying ''Alpha 3 unit command headquarters''. In fact, it''s no different from Zhenya''s own office. Facilities are limited to a desk and sofa for receiving guests. Even so, the owner of the room rarely used it so no signs of wear could be found. Zhenya was sitting in a chair staring out the window. A boring surrounding landscape appears. Occasionally there are people passing by and cars moving around. In the hallway outside the door, there were sounds of people walking and talking every now and then. close and then quickly subsided. He was not in a comfortable enough state to listen to the noises around him. The phone on the table has been ringing for a long time. But as if he hadn''t heard that sound, Zhenya moved his chair from side to side in complete relaxation. It was still a day no different from any other day, but for some reason his mood was more boring and boring. Zhenya didn''t feel that way for a while. "That''s fine." Suddenly he thought about something and muttered with satisfaction. Looks like there''s someone outside the door. The presence is so gentle that it can only be detected by the criminal''s intuition. Even so, Zhenya still noticed that someone was hesitating whether or not to knock on the door. But that was it, he didn''t react any further. Zhenya waited to see how the opponent outside the door would act. It wasn''t until a while later that there was a knock on the door. Hearing no movement from inside, he knocked on the door again. This time Zhenya also did not speak. The guest hesitantly said "I''ll come in" with a voice as loud as an ant and opened the door after a while. At that moment, Zhenya turned around. The person who entered the office was a low-level employee with a package of letters. When their eyes met, he was startled. The way he reluctantly walked to the sofa looked like a cow being led to the slaughterhouse, it seemed like he was planning to hand over the mail in his hand and quickly run away. Zhenya silently looked at the man. He placed the stack of letters on the edge of the table like he was giving food to a beast. It''s as slow as watching slow motion. "Then I''ll ask your permission to go out." He hesitated, waiting for the opportunity to run away immediately after announcing his intention to leave. Immediately, Zhenya stood up from his seat. The man was suddenly startled, but then he stiffened and did not move. Psych Bogdanov, whom he had only just heard about, was here. The seniors'' advice that it was best not to appear before his eyes flashed through the poor employee''s mind. His characteristic heavy body odor emanated from such a close distance. The man''s throat burned, his stomach churned. "Is there a tiger here? Why are you so tense?" "No. I''m not tense." "Is that so? Then let''s dance." S~ea??h the ¦Çov§×lFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The employee was bewildered by the unexpected request. As if to say he hadn''t heard wrong, Zhenya told him to jump again. The man''s face turned pale in shock. He cannot resist. Following orders from superiors is the principle. If Zhenya doesn''t do what he wants immediately. Will he bite his neck? Just walking through the hallway was enough to suffocate, now alone in a cramped space, the hair on his body kept standing up. The man regretted his actions as he entered and closed the door. Not caring about those complicated thoughts, Zhenya urged again "Huh?" The employee looked up at him frantically, his eyes as if begging for his life. Zhenya grinned and sat down at the table with his arms crossed. Let''s see. He stared at the employee with clear eyes. The man swallowed his saliva and closed his eyes tightly. hypnotizing himself as if he had been bitten by a mad dog. He could not end his life in vain just because he did not please Psych Bogdanov. Just do enough and you''ll be fine. The man made up his mind and shook his body desperately. The tension made his limbs stiff, no movement matched the other. If you keep calling this dancing, it''s really embarrassing. It was just a fierce struggle for survival. Zhenya looked absentmindedly and told him to stop. "It''s not fun. How about taking it all off and dancing? Climb up on the table." Faced with that ironic request, the man looked like he was about to cry. In an instant, he compared the time it took to run at full speed to the door and the time it took Zhenya to grab and twist his neck. If the employee is lucky enough to escape, the consequences are unpredictable. The man imagines everything in the most positive way possible and is soon disillusioned. Everything is hopeless no matter what measure. He gave up all hope and gently took off his clothes. Zhenya looked at the naked man without any interest. This is a man''s body. All men are like that. His arms and shoulders looked quite sturdy, but his stomach was full of fat, probably from drinking too much. The thighs are quite big but not all muscular. The skin was so pale and red that he could feel the roughness even without touching it. No matter how you look at it, it doesn''t look pretty. But how did he come to desire a man''s body? Zhenya was deep in thought when the employee walked up to the table. The penis shrinks from tension. His balls were red and wrinkled and his butt was as saggy as a lump of protein. Then suddenly, the man''s head landed on the sofa. That''s because Zhenya suddenly grabbed him by the back of his neck and pinned him down. A large body pressed against the back of the man who didn''t know what happened to him. Zhenya grabbed the frightened employee''s arm and inhaled the body odor. There is no stimulation at all. His brain felt like it was becoming limp and his lower body also lost feeling. Or is it because the other person looks like a corpse? "Hey, aren''t you protesting?" Zhenya annoyedly reprimanded the employee. The man was just trembling as if he was waiting for this moment to pass safely. "Go away." Zhenya nodded at the employee. He suddenly woke up, quickly grabbed his clothes and ran away. The door slammed shut with a loud bang. The pile of letters piled up on the table fell down at the same time. Normally Zhenya would ignore them, but for some reason today he picked them up. It was the height of boredom. Zhenya opened each letter that arrived. Usually it''s a damage claim invoice, a fine, a lawsuit, a statement of expenses too much to tell. He nonchalantly glanced through the pile of letters and then suddenly stopped, because there was an envelope with nothing written on it. Zhenya thought for a moment then opened the envelope and examined the contents. A piece of paper appeared. A single message was written on it. [Tick tock. Tick tock. Boom!] He recognized this text. The sound of the hour hand suddenly seemed longer. Tick tock. Tick tock. And soon there was a loud bang, quite far away. Before Zhenya could understand what was going on, his cell phone and land phone rang at the same time. An unpleasant feeling crept up the back of his neck, but it was also a strange expectation. Zhenya immediately picked up the phone, Vladimir''s urgent message came from the other side of the call. He listened silently and then turned off the phone. So cute, so he would appear like that. His stiff mouth drew a long arc, a large amount of adrenaline surging, making his head spin. Zhenya threw away the phone and immediately left the office. The blue eyes were filled with unusual joy and shone brightly. -- The whole city was blocked off because a mysterious explosion had occurred in the Bogdanov mansion, only fire trucks lined up to pass through the controlled road. The explosion occurred in two places. One place is in the manhole near the garage and one place is on the third floor of the villa. Damage was limited to a room blown away without a trace and several security personnel injured. Based on claims that there was an intruder at the villa, police sealed off surrounding roads and launched an extensive search. Reporters and curious people flocked to see the terrorist attack that occurred in the center of Moscow, especially in the mansion of the most famous family. Soon the whole area became crowded with people. The explosives disposal team brought in first came out and firefighters entered the scene. Because the area of the mansion is very large, it is necessary to thoroughly inspect it to ensure there are no remnants of the fire. Firefighters disperse in an orderly manner to assigned areas. Firefighter Dmitry also rushed through the nearby door following the captain''s hand signal. The room was largely unaffected by the explosion, but he still carefully observed the corners of the walls inside. At that moment, Dmitri''s eyes turned to the window full of cracks. Suddenly the floor he was standing on stood up. "Ah!" His body suspended in the air fell with a thud, a single scream trapped in the mask unable to escape. Dmitry groaned in pain and quickly felt dizzy from the back of his head and fainted. A moment later. Kwon Taek Joo, not Dmitri, walked out of the room. He took advantage of the chaos and quietly left the building. Thanks to his firefighter uniform, no one suspected him. Just as two fire trucks entered the garden, Kwon Taek Joo climbed into a passenger seat. "Dmitry? Why are you free here? Why Aren''t you working?" Dmitri''s superior, sitting in the driver''s seat, suddenly asked and looked suspicious at the strange appearance reflected outside the protective suit. Kwon Taek Joo immediately threw a punch and hit a vital point. The firefighter couldn''t even stand up straight and fell off the steering wheel. Kwon Taek Joo changed seats to the driver''s seat. Having to leave here as quickly as possible, he immediately started the engine and turned around. A nearby police officer approached with a suspicious look on his face. "Where are you going?" "We''re having trouble with the fire hydrant. I''ll quickly replace it and come back." Kwon Taek Joo cleverly made excuses. The policeman checked the extent of the fire then turned around and nodded coldly. Kwon Taek Joo drove onto the street and smoothly escaped the scene. He turned onto an avenue. A police official controlling the road stopped the fire truck. He looked around the car and suddenly asked a difficult question. "What is your name and employer?" Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know. He hesitated, the police officer looked at him suspiciously and then suddenly exchanged something over the radio. The officer''s attention gradually turned to Kwon Taek Joo and soon, he pulled out his gun and closed the distance. It seems like it''s only a matter of time before Kwon Taek Joo''s identity is revealed. There was no other way, he could only continue. Kwon Taek Joo made a decision and stepped on the gas. The wheel''s sudden acceleration made a noise that seemed to tear apart space. The police officers who were slowly approaching also suddenly stopped the car in front. But when a heavy barricade was rapidly approaching, police cars had no choice but to open the way. The fire truck rushed away like an angry bull. Unstoppable bullets were fired from behind. A barrage of bullets shattered the rearview mirror and even shattered the car''s windows. Kwon Taek Joo pressed his chest against the steering wheel and continued to accelerate, The giant fire truck sped away with momentum, pushing back everything on the road. Kwon Taek Joo thought of going to the embassy. It wasn''t a smart move, nor did Kwon Taek Joo expect them to protect him there. But that''s a way to buy time. Even the Russian Investigative Service cannot enter a foreign embassy without permission because it could escalate into a diplomatic matter. He just needed to hide there for a while and find a way to return home. Dozens of police cars suddenly followed. Sirens were blaring and chasing like a swarm of bees from the side and from behind. Kwon Taek Joo continued to speed up. Not long after, a sharp turn appeared in front of him. He should have stepped on the brake, but Kwon Taek Joo just quickly turned the steering wheel. The car''s body could not stop at the speed it was going and began to slide down the road. He held the steering wheel tightly as it was about to rotate on its own due to too great inertia. The car''s body screamed and ran zigzag, hitting the railing but still not veering off the road. However, the police cars following closely next to them were caught up in the heavy vehicle body and fell into the river because they could not withstand the centrifugal force. Even though they had overcome such a difficult period, there was no time for relief. A convoy of police cars immediately appeared on the other side. They did not hesitate to run back at a fierce speed. If this continues, Kwon Taek Joo will be surrounded in the blink of an eye. He nervously turned the steering wheel and went into a side alley. The road was so narrow that fire trucks got stuck between buildings. Violent sparks emitted from the car''s body, continuously colliding with the outside wall, and the car''s body also kept rattling. The more they collided, the harder Kwon Taek Joo stepped on the gas pedal. Fire trucks rattled through the narrow road. Shots were fired from police cars. A stream of water gushed out from the punctured water tank. Roads in all directions soon became flooded with water. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly went out onto the main road, the police car also blindly followed. He kept running for a while and then stepped on the brake. The police car also quickly stopped when the fire truck stopped suddenly. A film of water formed on the paved road due to water sprayed from the punctured tank, so even when the brakes were applied, the police cars still drifted helplessly away. Cars running from behind crashed into the back of another car and flew into the air. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the cars crashing into each other and then stepped on the accelerator to start. Not long after, he heard the familiar sound of propeller blades. It seems helicopters have been mobilized. The helicopter hovered in the air and warned that if they did not surrender, they would open fire. Dead either way, Kwon Taek Joo ignored the warning and ran across the bridge. Now go a little further and you will see the Korean Embassy. The last helicopter opened fire. Kwon Taek Joo quickly turned the steering wheel. The merciless rain of bullets tore through the passenger seat and water tank. Black smoke rose from the engine. Kwon Taek Joo focused on controlling the wobbly body of the car without having time to care about the blood flowing from his arm. The car''s body lost direction and spun around. Kwon Taek Joo saw the embassy in sight. Just a little more, just a little more. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator. The engine roared one last time. "Damned!" The embassy was right before his eves. The siren from behind was also closer. The helicopter continued to fly overhead like an eagle waiting for its prey to stop breathing. Kwon Taek Joo has no other choice. He closed his eyes again as he turned the wheel again, his foot never leaving the gas pedal. The fire truck drove straight into the front door of the embassy and crashed into it. A loud noise like an explosion rang out, the low walls and guard posts were swept away. The shock was as intense as if Kwon Taek Joo had thrown himself into a storm. Thick dust flew up, but the surrounding was as quiet as a sheet of paper. The sound of police sirens and helicopter blades were still there, but otherwise there was no sound at all "..Ugh." Kwon Taek Joo barely left the wheel. The area around his collarbone was stiff. He took a slow, deep breath and looked around. The fire truck driven by Kwon Taek Joo crashed into the main gate of the embassy and got stuck on the outside wall. He saw police pouring out of the car in the rearview mirror, but they couldn''t set foot inside the embassy. Kwon Taek Joo used a pistol to hit the windshield, which cracked like a spider web. The pieces of glass stick together and break easily. He gently swept away the damage and crawled forward. Inside the embassy, it was unusually quiet. It''s a weekday and it''s not even time to get off work yet, but Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t see a soul. Which direction should you turn? Kwon Taek Joo stood for a while in the hallway and then went to the ambassador''s office. Red blood dripped into drops with every step, Kwon Taek Joo''s ankle was cold, causing him to limp. A while later Kwon Taek Joo also arrived at the ambassador''s office. During the entire journey, he didn''t even see a shadow, let alone a person. Kwon Taek Joo reluctantly knocked on the door. There was no response from inside. He carefully lowered the door handle. The door is not locked. There are four tables placed inside, divided into two sides. Looking at the layout, it seems like this is a secretary''s office, but there''s no one there. There was still half of the coffee left in the cup and the screen was still on, indicating that someone had been here a while ago. Kwon Taek Joo took another step inside. There are two other doors, probably the ambassador''s office. He was about to knock on the door, but as soon as he touched it, the door opened by itself. Looks like it wasn''t sealed in the first place. In front of Kwon Taek Joo is a large desk often used for political purposes. A high-backed chair is facing the window. There is someone sitting there. Kwon Taek Joo happily took another step. At that moment, a suppressed groan rang out from somewhere, as if someone was gagged and calling for help. It''s obviously Korean. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head to follow the noise and saw a locked cabinet. Not sure if it was an illusion or not, there was a series of thudding sounds coming from inside. The locked cabinet door also shook. Kwon Taek Joo''s head was stunned by the strange scene, his instincts sent a danger warning signal. But his legs couldn''t move and felt like they were glued to the floor. His whole body stiffened. An unfortunate premonition ran down Kwon Taek Joo''s spine. The senses of the whole body are directed towards the chair in front of you. The chair slowly turned around as if fulfilling that expectation. The breath that was about to escape was choked, the floor under Kwon Taek Joo''s feet seemed to collapse. The person sitting in the chair is not an ambassador. It''s Zhenya. An evil smile appeared on his lips as he faced Kwon Taek Joo. Chapter 31 - 3.1 Contrabass solo Chapter 31: 3.1 Contrabass solo[NSFW Alert. Sexual / Violence / Non Con. / 18+] "Is this your cave?" Zhenya was still filled with relaxation and slowly looked around the office. That calmness surpasses Kwon Taek Joo. His fingertips were shaking, the blood flowing in his body was also boiling. "You should have dug a little deeper. Deep enough that I couldn''t reach it." Zhenya whispered then lifted himself up. Kwon Taek Joo''s stiff body suddenly shrank. His eyes opened wide without blinking for a second. The instinctive siren of danger rang loudly in my ears. Zhenya is also in no hurry. He coldly laughed at Kwon Taek Joo and then gradually approached. It''s not too late to run away now. If Kwon Taek Joo ran away at full speed. he would have had a chance. Of course there are still a lot of police outside the fence but it might be better to be caught by them. Zhenya took another step forward. Perhaps fear makes Kwon Taek Joo''s hearing more sensitive, so his presence is especially clearer. His heart seemed to have stopped beating for a moment and was now beating wildly again. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t keep calm. That was the moment when Zhenya was about to take another step. Gunfire suddenly rang out. Smoke rose from the tip of Kwon Taek Joo''s gun. There''s no way the threat to shoot him if he moves is going to work. If Kwon Taek Joo didn''t kill him, he would die today. But the bullet aimed at Zhenya went straight into the wall. He turned his head to avoid the bullet and smiled slightly. Kwon Taek Joo tightly grasped the trembling gun and gave a useless warning. "Do not come near." Zhenya took another step as if to tease him, his face glossy and mocking. Kwon Taek Joo took the phone out of his pocket and held it up in front of him. "If I go one step further, I will send this photo." Zhenya''s gaze shifted to the phone screen. There is an image inside a rather familiar room. It appears to be a photo taken before Anastasia was blown up. It''s a photo with only half of the design, the rest belongs to Salman. Kwon Taek Joo decided to send the part he was keeping as soon as he got on the plane to Korea. For Kwon Taek Joo, it was the price of his life. He didn''t know that he would have to use it here, like this. Are threats effective? Zhenya did not approach any further but just blankly looked at the worried Kwon Taek Joo. Then, as if it were a very funny story, he curled his mouth and spoke. "How do you prove that it''s ''Anastasia"s blueprint?" Kwon Taek Joo frowned at the unexpected question. The photo itself is the design of ''Anastasia'', so what more proof is needed? "Who knew that the room you blew up was Anastasia''s blueprint? At most, me and my family members knew. Do you think they would be willing to admit that ''Anastasia was stolen? Those bastards aren''t that naive. Of course your runaway partner could make a fuss about getting ''Anastasia''. The problem is that no one would believe it. Aren''t they a group of traitors? Is this movement threatening the peace of Russia? This will be considered a plot to weaken my power. Then there is only one person left who can reveal the secret... There is also no need to worry because that person won''t be able to walk out of here on his own." Sparkling blue eyes. The hand holding the Colt had more strength. "If the blueprints leaking and exploding weren''t an important issue, you wouldn''t have come running here like this. The fact that no one knows where the blueprints are means no one can confirm that it exists or not? The whole world was scared just because of the rumor that this country was holding Anastasia but what would happen if a rumor spread that the blueprint had disappeared? No one would believe you.. There will probably be doubters, but the words are scary. If you persist in creating something that doesn''t exist and reinforcing that fiction, one day it will come true, just like Princess Anastasia there." That could be the case, but are you monitoring the situation? Thank you for worrying about me, but why don''t you think about your situation first? Even if I die. I won''t die alone.'''' Kwon Taek Joo moved his finger to the bullet, his black eyes glowing with fighting spirit. All senses are sensitive to Zhenya''s every move. He completely forgot to inhale and exhale. Zhenya burst out laughing again but the feeling was completely different from a moment ago. He snapped his long fingers. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t answer and pulled his feet back. The two pairs of eyes stared at each other, the tension seemed about to break. Suddenly Zhenya''s finger stopped. His originally smiling face suddenly turned cold. a large vein appeared on his forehead. The next moment, Zhenya strode forward ignoring Kwon Taek Joo''s warning. The distance between the two quickly decreased even as he retreated in despair. Kwon Taek Joo stepped back and hit his back against the wall, his finger accidentally pulled the trigger. Zhenya stopped and looked at the confused Kwon Taek Joo. The surrounding noise suddenly completely disappeared. A dark silence prevailed. The life-sustaining thread has also disappeared in vain. The corner of Zhenya''s mouth pulled up. Then he immediately rushed forward, just strides but the feeling was no different than a tiger about to attack. If Kwon Taek Joo stood still, his neck would probably be bitten off by him. He did not hesitate to pull the trigger, but Zhenya easily avoided the flying bullets no matter how many times he fired. "I don''t know how many more shots you can shoot, but you better finish it quickly." Kwon Taek Joo fired again before Zhenya could give his arrogant advice, but the bullet didn''t even graze the monster''s hair or collar. Kwon Taek Joo''s injured arm made it difficult for him to aim accurately. The distance between him and Zhenya rapidly decreased again. He finally filled Kwon Taek Joo''s field of vision. He gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger again, but before the bullet could be fired, the gun barrel was kicked away. Just like that, the Colt fell from Kwon Taek Joo''s hand and flew into the air. While Kwon Taek Joo was still trying to figure out what was going on, Zhenya''s shadow covered him, his hand grabbed his neck and squeezed him tightly. A distinctive body odor wafted into Kwon Taek Joo''s nose, making him suffocate even more. "Should I ask for damages now?" Blue eyes filled with anticipation. Kwon Taek Joo was thrown into a nearby cabinet before he could regain his composure. The pile of files stacked on top of the cabinet also fell down. "Ugh." His back hit the cabinet handle as if it was about to split in two. His head was also pounding. The shock was so sudden that Kwon Taek Joo didn''t have a second to stand up on his painfully sprained legs. He tried to lean his back against the cabinet and try to stand up straight, but Zhenya was right in front of him before he realized it. He used his shoe to stomp on Kwon Taek Joo''s right shoulder. He was pushed back into the closet. As if a large spear was stabbed into his shoulder, Kwon Taek Joo tried to push Zhenya''s leg to escape but it only increased the pressure on his shoulder. His shoulder bone felt like it was about to break, Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth. "What''s wrong? Are you already about to die? Haven''t you prepared for this outcome?" "..Ugh, this is the result of your arrogance." "And also the result of your petty pride." Zhenya shrugged and mumbled. Kwon Taek Joo grimaced in pain. His joints ached, his forehead was also drenched in sweat, and the grinding sound continuously came from his teeth clenched together. Just before Kwon Taek Joo felt like his shoulder would break. The cruel shoe came off. But the relief didn''t last long as he stepped on between his legs. The toe of the shoe is reminiscent of a crocodile''s snout, squeezing Kwon Taek Joo''s crotch tightly. His upper body tilted strongly forward. "Ahh.." "I thought you wouldn''t do such a lovely thing, but it turns out I was wrong." With every word he uttered, the pressure from the shoe increased and Kwon Taek Joo''s body also collapsed. He quickly grabbed Zhenya''s shoe with both hands but to no avail. His genitals were about to be crushed out of shape, his nerves stretched with intense pain. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even breathe Zhenya slowly stepped on Kwon Taek Joo''s groin. He knew that if he still wanted to live, if he still wanted to keep his life, he should not provoke him, but Kwon Taek Joo could not bear it any longer. He used his fist to hit Zhenya''s shin hard. The blow must have caused considerable pain, but he did not move. His face was completely expressionless. Right after that, Kwon Taek Joo''s face turned away with intense shock. The fishy smell of blood mixed with exhaled breath. His whole body lost all strength, even the will to fight against violence was broken. After a moment of lifting the shoe, it fell onto Kwon Taek Joo''s lower abdomen, his shirt flap was lifted up by the sharp tip of the shoe. Zhenya''s eyes stared at his curled toes then he moved his foot a little higher. The deeper the shoes go, the more the shirt swells. "Spying, breaking into people''s houses, assault, terrorism, theft, impersonating public officials, destroying public property.. You''ve really caused a lot of trouble" As if looking closely at Kwon Taek Joo''s every action, Zhenya listed each crime. His eves slowly looked down. Just like that. The first button flew out of his shirt, revealing his flat lower abdomen. Zhenya moved his feet without stopping. The toe of the shoe goes over the abs and then reaches the ribs. The shirt was ripped again. "That''s fine anyway. But you should have heeded my warning. I''ve already explained it to you, haven''t I? Just don''t touch my things. Is it that difficult?" Another button popped out and hit Kwon Taek Joo on the chin. He angrily rolled his eyes and stared at Zhenya. But right after that, Kwon Taek Joo bowed his head and groaned, because Zhenya''s shoe was stepping on his chest. His lungs were compressed so he couldn''t breathe. Two other buttons popped out one after another as the shoe slowly moved forward. If he continued to step down, Kwon Taek Joo''s ribs would definitely break and pierce his lungs. If you''re unlucky, the bones can get stuck in your heart. Life and death are facing each other. Kwon Taek Joo held his breath and lay still as if waiting for a full stomached tiger to give up interest and obediently retreat. Zhenya''s eyes looked down at him extremely calmly. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t read any of his emotions. The shoe threatens the final knot. The button tightened and trembled, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelashes also shook slightly. Zhenya''s pupils immediately tightened. "If you damage someone else''s things, you have to pay a corresponding price, right? I''m not losing business." The last button fell out, causing the shirt to open completely. The sharp toe of the shoe touches Kwon Taek Joo''s chin. His chin was lifted, his eyes froze. Zhenya looked into the dark eves that trembled in uneasiness, and he clicked his tongue in pity. "From now on you have to learn to think hard about how to keep your little life." Kwon Taek Joo was pushed through the table and fell down. All office supplies fell to the ground. His right cheek and bare chest along with his stomach hit the cold tabletop. Before he could get used to the shock, his lower body was empty and his pants flew off. Kwon Taek Joo struggled reflexively, but Zhenya''s weight quickly overwhelmed him. Then, a burning and heavy pain cut through his lower body. "Ahh!" Kwon Taek Joo screamed like he was about to cry. A mass of hot flesh without hesitation plunged its head between his legs. The hole, which was hardening with tension, was forced to open and take in the ferocious giant. Kwon Taek Joo angrily raised his head and then pushes it down again. His lungs were pressed down so much that he couldn''t even take a single breath. The two buttocks that were pushed hard trembled as if they were convulsing. Despite that stiff resistance, the meat column continued to devour the hole. Zhenya''s firm thighs finally touched Kwon Taek Joo''s buttocks. "Ugh, ha." His jaw clenched, his fingertips continuously scratched the table, Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach was full. The lower part was completely expanded, almost sucking the penis. If it was rubbed mercilessly like this again, the unhealed wound would tear again. Zhenya''s chin rested on Kwon Taek Joo''s stiff shoulders. The temperature on his skin suddenly dropped, giving Kwon Taek Joo goosebumps. Zhenya''s long fingers lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s chin, his jaw trembling even though he tried to clench his teeth. The huge muscle that was enjoying the tightness suddenly twisted its head. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes at that terrible feeling. "Do you cry often?" Zhenya whispered softly. Kwon Taek Joo''s butt stiffened. He gave a low smile and pulled away. Immediately after that, the meat stick was pulled out and used all its strength to stab hard below, hitting Kwon Taek Joo''s spine. "Aaa!" A horrifying scream rang out. Even Kwon Taek Joo''s fingertips that were scratching the table surface turned white and clenched tightly, the large blood vessels on his neck also stood out, and the hole in terrible pain tightened Zhenya''s penis. The monster seemed about to crush everything inside. The calmness on Zhenya''s face also gradually disappeared, the grinding sound came from his clenched teeth. It seemed he was in pain also. From the place of contact with Kwon Taek Joo, every cell in his body seemed to be accelerating, his spine throbbed like blood was flowing backward. His eyes were dark. Zhenya pulled his penis all the way out and then thrust it back n hard. Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body trembled at the feeling of deep penetration. He was impatient because the hole was not loosened. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s buttocks, spread them wide and thrust them underneath. The tight hole began to loosen little by little with rough thrusts. The action is filled with pain that brings gentle pleasure. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s arm as he was trying to struggle away from him, pulled him back and lifted his back up. The table was pushed away by Zhenya''s hip thrusts causing scratches on the floor. Kwon Taek Joo''s body was stuck between the table and Zhenya gradually helplessly opened it. He shook his head angrily because he couldn''t overcome the overwhelming strength even when he struggled fiercely. Suffering groans continuously rang out. "Ahhaaaaa! Ugh, hmmm! Haa!" The sound kept coming out of his open mouth, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t bear it without screaming. But no matter how much he screamed, the pain did not subside even a little. It wasn''t like the time he was drunk. There is no place for pleasure, only excruciating pain. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo who was trying to escape and stabbed him in the lower abdomen. "Ahha!" He pushed deeper, Kwon Taek Joo lowered his head to the table. His legs struggled helplessly in the air. Zhenya pressed her chest against his hot back and kissed Kwon Taek Joo''s jet black hair. "Why did you decide to come back?" "Huh?" He said as he thrust his hips continuously, the hot product reached Kwon Taek Joo''s navel. Every time he pushed in, his stomach bulged, the feeling of nausea made saliva ooze out at the tip of his chin. Zhenya took a deep breath of Kwon Taek Joo''s body scent. The stimulation from his nose rushed straight to his brain, the blood running through his body also boiled. "The ideas from your little head are so adorable." Zhenya''s mouth curled up. A child receiving a magical toy for the first time in his life would not be as excited as he is now. Suddenly, Zhenya bit the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. He grabbed his thighs, which were burning and felt like they were being crushed, and moved in and out quickly. Kwon Taek Joo''s red hot penis was chopped up inside tight as if he was trying to make a mold of the right size inside. When Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was about to go numb from the feeling of his stomach being brutally stabbed, a strong force landed on his right buttock. Kwon Taek Joo was startled, he hit his butt again. Intense pain rose from the same place. "Fuck.. stop. you bastard! Ah!" There was no doubt that he was administering physical punishment. Zhenya seemed to ride in and out of Kwon Taek Joo and continuously patted his right buttock. The tormented muscle in his palm quickly swelled to the shape of his palm, so painful that the skin felt like it was about to peel off. S§×ar?h the N??elFir§×.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s arm as he struggled to block the brutal blows, then he pulled out his meat and hit his butt again. The poor red butt trembled. Kwon Taek Joo was both painful and embarrassed and banged his head on the table. Zhenya looked at the arm holding his hand tightly as the small hole tried to swallow his exploding load with a strange feeling of pleasure. The liquid flowing from the penis made the hole wet, the flesh stuffed inside also became shiny, and a sharp friction sound rang out every time Kwon Taek Joo''s butt and Zhenya''s pelvis touched each other. The table shook more violently, causing Kwon Taek Joo''s vision to shake. He closed his eyes, but the feeling of his flesh being deeply penetrated by that hot iron bar became clearer. Even his gasps and reluctant moans could not be hidden. Kwon Taek Joo is dead, one way or another. He clenched his fists to endure, but Zhenya suddenly grabbed his shoulder and turned him around. The flesh column stuck in his body also rotated. Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth and gasped at the uncomfortable burning feeling. Zhenya lifted his sweaty thighs and placed them on his chest. The two people''s eyes met between their widely opened legs. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were filled with fatigue. Zhenya grinned down and licked his exhausted face. The pupils in his eyes shrank strangely as if they did not belong to a human. "I don''t know if you''re worth replacing Anastasia." Zhenya hit the right buttock again. The butt was beaten continuously so just touching it was so painful that it was beyond words. If this continues, it would be better for Kwon Taek Joo to be shot with a gun. He spoke as if he was emotional and then spanked the innocent butt again. The muscles under Kwon Taek Joo''s skin were screaming, his knees twitching uncontrollably from the pain. "If you''ve caused trouble for others, you should receive a suitable punishment, right?" Zhenya smiled. His blue eyes shined strangely. Kwon Taek Joo was like a frog thrown into the hands of a child. The frog''s limbs were tied and its white belly was exposed. There was a sense of crisis that he was really going to die here. The tense hole tightened and bit into the genitals tighter. Zhenya continued to spank Kwon Taek Joo''s swollen butt as if telling him to relax. His muscles twitched from shock and sharp pain. Kwon Taek Joo kicked Zhenya''s leg and cried out. "Damn, it hurts." Zhenya didn''t leave it alone. He put his hand firmly on the butt that was jerking in pain. Kwon Taek Joo held his breath nervously, there was still a groan even though he tried to clench his teeth. Zhenya raised the corners of his mouth and continued to push into the lower part and dig inside, causing Kwon Taek Joo''s hips to also be pushed up. In that moment, he pulled out his column of flesh and pushed it back as if to defeat Kwon Taek Joo. The stabbing speed also increased rapidly, then slowed down, then rammed again. Each time Zhenya''s penis was pulled out, the red mucus inside that stuck to the surface of the flesh was also sucked out. Just like that, Kwon Taek Joo felt like his lower body would completely fall down, and his stomach would also roll up. Zhenya pushed his hips and pressed Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs down further. In an instant, Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulders shook as if burned by a fire. "Ha ugh!" He bit his lip but couldn''t stop the moan. The body''s reaction surprised Kwon Taek Joo even more. In contrast to the trembling gesture like an electric shock and trying to escape, the hole bit the huge mass of flesh even tighter. Zhenya was surprised by that obvious change in attitude and then curled his mouth and smiled. Uneasiness came. Zhenya used force to press Kwon Taek Joo''s arm that was trying to defend himself and plunged his genitals straight into the spot just now. Kwon Taek Joo''s back shook violently. "Aah!" His whole body stood up. Zhenya''s thighs that were placed in front of his chest also twitched because of that echo. His toes curled and his wide eyes trembled in surprise. Zhenya followed his every move and then suddenly leaned his upper body towards Kwon Taek Joo. The level of penetration became deeper and his face got closer. When Kwon Taek Joo met his naturally curved eyes, his stomach tightened, with an unfortunate omen. "Damn.. Aaaa!" The big, hot object kept stabbing into a corner as if Kwon Taek Joo''s body was folded in half. The skin inside feels like it''s peeling off, creating a feeling of numbness. The stimulation from the pelvic area surged violently to the head and then spread to the tips of the toes. Kwon Taek Joo bit his lips and tried to endure but could not stop the moans that flowed out chaotically. "Haa. Ugh!" His eyes flashed. If this continues, Kwon Taek Joo will go crazy. He struggled to escape this unbearable feeling but Zhenya used his entire body weight to stop him. His whole body pressed down on him, making Kwon Taek Joo unable to move. Even in the midst of that, the meat column still persistently stabbed inside without tiring. Kwon Taek Joo''s saliva seemed to boil in his mouth. Beads of sweat formed on Zhenya''s chin, his forehead wrinkled in sweet pleasure but only his lips still drew an arc. He wants to break and destroy Kwon Taek Joo completely. He had only one thought: to completely crush his rebellious body by expanding it again and again. Red-hot excitement took over his consciousness. Just like that, Zhenya pulled himself away and stabbed into the deepest part of Kwon Taek Joo until desire flowed out. "Ugh." "Damn party, ah!" Zhenya firmly fixed Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs and rubbed his lower body against the firm buttocks. The penis swelled for a moment and spurted out thick semen. He lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s waist even higher so as not to miss a single drop. Kwon Taek Joo''s lips were dry, saliva boiling in his mouth flowed down his chin, his hair seemed to stand on end. His whole body''s temperature seemed to evaporate in an instant and hot steam rose through the pores all over his body. The current passes through the whole body still inside, sending out a tingling stimulation. Zhenya still didn''t stop, he smacked his penis again. The remaining semen erupted and flowed out all the way to the entrance. The compressed hole became smaller and swallowed it whole. Zhenya observed the scene with satisfaction and vaguely declared. "You''re going to cry a lot today." The huge column of flesh still inside suddenly became larger. In an instant, Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach was full of pressure. Kwon Tae Joo''s shocked face distorted miserably. Chapter 32 - 3.2 Contrabass Solo 2 Chapter 32: 3.2 Contrabass Solo 2Consciousness is interrupted many times and then continued, the boundary between day and night is not clear. Even when he woke up, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t tell if he was dreaming or awake. He suddenly felt cold on his skin, but even that was difficult to guarantee that it was real. Then a completely different scene flashed across his gradually expanding vision. The surrounding scenery was completely different from the last memories. A long time later. Kwon Taek Joo fully woke up, his body was covered in a layer of soft fur. There''s something warm nearby. There is a pungent smell of burning firewood. Is it the fireplace? As if to increase certainty, the flickering flames nearby continuously dimmed and then flared up again. A shadow passed in front of Kwon Taek Joo. The movement was leisurely. Soon, a heavy object pressed on his leg. The characteristic body odor is also more intense. There was smoke coming from somewhere that stung his nose as if Kwon Taek Joo had just smoked a cigar. Cohiba Behike. The distinctive scent enhances its presence. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath. The strong scent faded a bit and then quickly became rich again. The cigar soon approached Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. He turned his head away to avoid that unpleasant touch. A mocking laugh rang out from the head of the bed. Zhenya''s hands slid past him, over his upper body and then slowly down, down and further. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes showed discomfort. As if sensing something bad, he looked down. A cigar was wandering over his drooping penis. The burning red cigar swayed gently back and forth. Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs tensed up at the feeling of crisis. Zhenya''s lips drew a long arc. "If you stand up now, you''ll touch it." Zhenya pressed the shoulders of Kwon Taek Joo who was angry at his fishy warning and moved closer. He naturally leaned down to Kwon Taek Joo''s upturned chest and placed his lips on his nipple. Zhenya gently sucked on the small piece of meat and then used the strength of his tongue to slide over it. He used his entire tongue to flatten her stiff nipples. Kwon Taek Joo could not adapt to those completely unfamiliar and intense situations. "Ahh!" His body became excited. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and struggled, but his arms and legs were locked tightly, unable to move, letting his flesh be oppressed until it completely stood up. The tingling sensation from the sensitive area rushed to the center, the groans and grinding of teeth that could not be swallowed emanated from the clenched teeth. the two knees rubbed together, causing an intense burning sensation to run. to the groin. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body feeling became clearer in her restless mood. Every time Zhenya sucked hard on her nipple, something seemed to be pulled out from inside. That intense feeling runs down between the legs, where the still-floating cigar encourages an erection. Kwon Taek Joo worriedly examined the situation below, his tense flesh seemed to be about to touch the cigar. He forgot to breathe, his nipples were being chewed on and seemed like they were about to break off. "Ah!" The veins on Kwon Taek Joo''s neck and forehead stood out from the persistent pain, at the same time his penis also raised its head. The heat seemed threatening around the swaying flesh. It will be touched. Kwon Taek Joo tried to brace his thighs. Zhenya licked Kwon Taek Joo''s lower lip with a happy face. There is a faint taste of blood on the tip of the tongue. A small drop of blood on Kwon Taek Joo''s nipple glistened along with his saliva. Zhenya pretended not to know and then kissed the surrounding area. Every time the sharp tip of her nose passed by, Kwon Taek Joo''s injured nipple trembled, a premonition of fear and worry for what would happen next arose. Zhenya smiled and pressed harder on Kwon Taek Joo''s wrist and then once again he sucked on the injured nipple. "Ugh. Ah!" The small piece of meat became sensitive as the tip of the soft tongue began to rotate. The feeling of tingling pain mixed with pleasure rose up. Kwon Taek Joo''s legs could not stand the stimulation and were sliding down. He tried to lift his wrist that Zhenya was holding so tightly that it turned white. The more he tried, the more Zhenya''s perseverance increased. Kwon Taek Joo''s arms and legs were forced down reluctantly and her nipples were sucked so hard that they made a sound. "Ugh, stop it. damn it, ugh!" No matter how hard he tried to shake it off, he couldn''t beat him. Even when Kwon Taek Joo tried his best, only his body being controlled by Zhenya ached. He bit the nipple and sucked it again as if in punishment for that useless resistance. His lungs tightened as the pleasure gently spread through his body with a sigh, that unbearable pain returning to his groin. The cum mixed with resignation came from Kwon Taek Joo. The next moment, his trembling limbs clenched tightly. "Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo''s lower abdomen convulsed with each spurt of semen. Zhenya stopped after that moaning sound and looked at the small trembling column of flesh. "You seem to like being sucked, don''t you?" Zhenya raised the corners of his mouth and smiled widely. The fist Kwon Taek Joo swung out in anger was grabbed and twisted back immediately. He bent down completely and licked the inside of my trembling arm for a long time. Goosebumps appeared intermittently on Kwon Taek Joo''s skin. If Zhenya suddenly bared her teeth and bit into his wrist artery, it wouldn''t be surprising at all. Sear?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zhenya lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s arms up, tied them tightly with a belt, then waved something at him. Kwon Taek Joo stared at him both scared and angry. That small object was made of gold and had a ring attached to a long and thin bar that just looking at it made Kwon Taek Joo feel uncomfortable. Zhenya held Kwon Taek Joo''s wet front hole still for a moment and then opened it slightly on both sides. "Since the days of the KGB, the FSB has been training agents in sex. It can penetrate a target''s deepest recesses without bloodshed. There is a town called Klin, about 80 km away, where they taught sexual techniques for three weeks. I served as an instructor there for a while." "Ah!" Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s upper body shook, because Zhenya had pressed the instrument into his gaping urethra. The metal bar pushed through the hole but barely scratched it. Kwon Taek Joo''s abdominal muscles tightened before the unfamiliar stimuli. The semen left inside like lubricant swallowed the metal rod smoothly. Soon the tool was deep inside with the circle hanging in the middle pressing on the muscle that hadn''t even had time to tense up yet. Kwon Taek Joo''s chest opened but he stiffly held his breath. He couldn''t move, only his evelahes were shaking slightly. If Kwon Taek Joo moves hastily, his body will be damaged. Zhenya looked at him pitifully and then affectionately lifted his flowing hair. "That means I''m still good at making people cry." Zhenya''s knee crashed into Kwon Taek Joo''s thigh right after that statement. He quickly lifted his stiff legs and immediately slid his giant meat rod into the hole. Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body was pushed up by his thrust. Zhenya used his hand to cover Kwon Taek Joo''s naturally opened mouth and slowly leaned down to look at his face. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes widened from the heavy feeling in his stomach then he frowned. Zhenya looked into his eyes filled with his silhouette and pulled away. The penis is sucked out, leaving only the head, which quickly retracts inside. Kwon Taek Joo''s insides. which were already hot from the previous contact, now became burning. The cells of the entire body, which were already stimulated, are now even more sensitive, so gentle provocations are enough to cause unusual pain. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head angrily. The scream he couldn''t let out choked in his throat, choking him. The lower part was continuously opened and deep inside was continuously oppressed. Zhenya remembered exactly Kwon Taek Joo''s weak point, so as soon as he passed through that area, he grabbed him tightly and deliberately stabbed him in one place. "Ugh! hmm. ahhh.. Ah!" He was in the mood to make a mold in someone else''s stomach. Kwon Taek Joo''s insides were constantly being kneaded and dug as if it was about to turn into the shape of Zhenya''s penis. Other than his wriggling legs, the wall inside his stomach yearning for intense pleasure tightened even more tightly around his large member. Zhenya''s eyes sparkled, the corners of his lips also drew clearer lines. He did not hesitate to lick Kwon Taek Joo''s armpit and then sucked even harder on the sensitive skin as he gritted his teeth and shivered. Zhenya moved her lips and then bit into the strong chest muscles until he left teeth marks and then held his nipples tightly. When he sucked the small piece of meat and made a loud sound, Kwon Taek Joo''s toned waist also began to vibrate. He held his waist tightly and continuously sucked his nipples, Kwon Taek Joo''s lower body also automatically lifted. "Ah. ugh, haa, ugh!" Kwon Taek Joo tilted his head and kept looking down. Her exposed chest clearly rose and fell with difficulty. Zhenya dug into his stomach as he used the tip of her tongue to press down as if to engulf the raised nipple. The small hole was pushed in and out violently, still persistently squeezing the hot and hard meat column. The feeling of discomfort and excitement at the same time made Kwon Taek Joo dizzy. The thrusting shaft of flesh quickly slid out of the hole and rubbed against the skin of the inner thigh. Kwon Taek Joo swallowed his breath in vain when the large object inside suddenly disappeared. Zhenya looked at his helpless face and then gently rubbed her genitals against Kwon Taek Joo''s thigh. The soft skin quickly became hot. Then Zhenya squeezed his ass open and inserted the meat rod into the small hole again. Kwon Taek Joo frowned and shouted. The cylindrical monster rammed into him until his insides collapsed. "Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ugh." Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t stop moaning, his knees kept rubbing together, blood rushed to his groin and he was about to go crazy. Because the iron bar had blocked the hole in front, the inside was cramped and swollen. The sirens of his instincts rang loudly again. If he couldn''t ejaculate property, his balls would explode. Kwon Taek Joo quickly pushed Zhenya but he remained as stubborn as a rock without moving. On the contrary, he only clung to him even more and continuously licked the veins on Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Two sweaty bodies overlapped each other. The pitiful mass of flesh was pressed and continuously swept against Zhenya''s abdominal muscles that stood erect with tendons and veins bulging in extreme excitement. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t bear it anymore, his toes curled white but Zhenya continued to thrust inside. Kwon Taek Joo desperately struggled with all his strength to shake off the huge ghost that was oppressing him. He struggled to escape by any means. Zhenya hit him hard underneath and lifted him up. Kwon Taek Joo''s frantically waving limbs were instantly shaken violently. He continued to bend his knees towards his chest, his buttocks naturally lifted and the places where their bodies were intertwined also tightened. "Ahhhhhh! Ughh." Even when he tried to run away, his legs held tightly by Zhenya wouldn''t budge. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and endured, his hands clenched tightly with his breath panting in his throat. Zhenya gently caressed the place where their bodies were interlocked. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelids twitched, veins bulging on his sweaty forehead. He couldn''t breathe and stared at Zhenya then suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s body jumped. "Haa.!" An explosive groan. A laver of saliva flowed down Kwon Taek Joo''s trembling chin. His chest opened wide and his shoulders stiffened. His eyes seemed to melt, his heated brain seemed to turn into liquid and flow through the pores of his body. Wet tears gathered in the corners of my eyes. When Zhenya lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s waist again, the mess started to flow down. Zhenya''s lips curled up. He licked the drops of tears flowing down Kwon Taek Joo''s face and gently pulled out the tool that was clogging his front hole. The wet metal ring and rod that had constricted Kwon Taek Joo''s painful penis slid out easily. The next moment, Kwon Taek Joo''s penis, which could not ejaculate, twitched and spurted out semen. The liquid that had accumulated inside spewed out little by little irregularly. The inside of Kwon Taek Joo''s stiff thighs also trembled at the same time. He covered his eyes in fear with both his tightly tied hands. "Ughh!" "You surrendered really quickly." Zhenya used his fingertips to touch Kwon Taek Joo''s trembling flesh and then he smeared the semen there into the hole that was biting his muscle mass. Zhenya takes all that''s left and rubs it all around the penis. Kwon Taek Joo''s normally calm genitals suddenly swelled up, inflating Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body. His insides were quickly filled with no gaps left. Zhenya smiled and lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s legs, which were stretched out due to exhaustion, onto his shoulders. "Aren''t you already crying? It''s going to take a long time for me to stop being angry." Kwon Taek Joo would rather be sentenced to death than be in despair right now. -- Kwon Taek Joo could barely lift his heavy eyelids. It was dark all around. I don''t know what day it is or what time it is. Every minute and second seemed like an eternity. Even being thrown into hell probably wouldn''t be as scary as it is now. His back hurt so much that he couldn''t move. His spine must have been misaligned. Kwon Taek Joo was very sure, but he soon realized that he was wrong, because his stomach, which was already full, suddenly became loose and then immediately became full again. Zhenya is still bothering him. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyebrows frowned, a soft curse echoed in his throat, consciousness had returned but his eyes were tightly closed and could not be opened. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo heard something, it seemed like the clanging of iron furniture, as if Zhenya had just inserted his giant monster into someone else''s stomach and was preparing something. His shadow swayed on Kwon Taek Joo''s back. Not long after. his hand touched the waist area just above his buttocks. Zhenya gently groped around and then suddenly put strength into his fingertips. Right after that, something sharp cut into Kwon Taek Joo''s flesh. "Ahh! Ah!" The sharp feeling of stabbing into the skin made Kwon Taek Joo''s senses tense. The delicate, sensitive skin is unbearably painful. A sharp needle pierced his skin and intentionally caused the wound. Then a dark dye is applied to the area. It hurts like crazy. Zhenya squeezed Kwon Taek Joo''s body was trying to escape the pain and carefully carved a pattern. "Some people say this is a symbol of desire." Zhenya dipped the tip of the needle again and began carving the most important part, his eyes opened wide with an unprecedented sharpness. He even held his breath. "This is just a contract between a lord and a servant." "What are you doing, you bastard! Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted in anger and then quickly put his head down on the bed, because Zhenya lifted his waist as if to respond to that crazy protest. A heavy burning feeling pressed down on his spine and spread throughout his body, his fists trembled white. "Instead of the blueprint you blew up, now you should know clearly who owns your body." Zhenya looked down at the tattoo and smiled with satisfaction. He turned to bite Kwon Taek Joo''s nape and slowly lifted his waist. "Ha ha. Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t lift a finger, trembling, moaning and squirming to let Zhenya tear him apart. His back was pushed violently but his mind was gradually fading. Chapter 33 - 3.3 Contrabass Solo 3 Chapter 33: 3.3 Contrabass Solo 3There was some echo in Kwon Taek Joo''s dream, was it the sound of the wind or the heartbeat of a giant creature? The melodious melody that followed seemed to be interrupted, causing the icy air to tremble splendidly. Looks like someone is playing a musical instrument. It''s clearly a stringed instrument, but it doesn''t have the brilliant tone and technical variety of a violin. That heavy sound weighed on Kwon Taek Joo''s body. It''s sad but not unpleasant at all. His exhausted body became even more tired, and his consciousness gradually became blurred. Even though he knew he shouldn''t and couldn''t do that in a situation like this, Kwon Taek Joo fell into a deep sleep. No longer worried or afraid, he seemed to enter a perfect and safe space in that moment. -- Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were closed tightly but he still felt the cold. He gently lifted his eyelids and closed them again. The sun poured down on his face, not hot but very bright. Kwon Taek Joo raised his hand to cover his eyes and looked around. The first thing he saw was the fireplace. The fire was almost extinguished but the embers were still there. Large fur blanket was spread out in front of it and a white sofa. The feeling of the fur blanket is quite familiar, so it seems that the fact that Kwon Taek Joo was lying on it was not an illusion. He still doesn''t know where the dream comes from and what is reality. Did you just fall asleep like that? Maybe Kwon Taek Joo fainted for a while. He groped through his past memories and looked around him. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen. Kwon Taek Joo lifted himself up. A dull pain came. Every part of his body, down to his knuckles, ached. When Kwon Taek Joo felt intense pain from his muscles, past events appeared in his mind one after another. Is it all real? Kwon Taek Joo sheepishly stroked his face. It''s crazy. How did he get held down by a man and ejaculate in the hands of someone who wouldn''t be happier if he tore him apart right away? It''s not like he was injected with drugs like he was on Olkhon Island. He had orgasmed many times while sober and abused. Even if it was a dream, isn''t it too embarrassing and cruel? ''Do you call that rape? Do you like it too? How many times have you had an orgasm?'' Zhenya''s mocking smile in his dream reappeared every day. Kwon Taek Joo''s teeth naturally grinded together. Not only that, he also slept very well and comfortably. If only he had been injected with drugs like last time or even drunk, his feeling would have been less bad. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head in embarrassment. He sat up. Something slowly flowed from inside his ass as soon as he took a step. Kwon Taek Joo bit his dry lower lip because of that terrible feeling, his forehead wrinkled bitterly. After a while of regaining consciousness, Kwon Taek Joo realized that some kind of liquid was glistening under his thighs. His stomach was filled with sticky semen. "Damned." Sear?h the nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Hands clenched into fists trembling with anger, Kwon Taek Joo angrily punched the rigid wall in front of him but his anger could not be relieved at all, if only he could have died at Zhenya''s hands at that moment. It wasn''t as embarrassing as it is now. Perhaps this is the reason he kept Kwon Taek Joo alive. He banged his head against the wall as if torturing himself. Nothing has changed either. He was still breathing stupidly, only the discomfort was more obvious. Kwon Taek Joo slumped his shoulders and exhaled a long breath then raised his head. He turned back to look at the unfamiliar space in front of him. This was not the Korean embassy. Kwon Taek Joo turned pale and got goosebumps, not just because he was naked. He strode hastily toward the window. Inside his butt there was a tingling pain every time his legs met, the small hole was soaking wet. Kwon Taek Joo walked slowly so his skin wouldn''t rub against each other then suddenly ran to press his forehead against the window. The eyebrows that were frowned as a habit were now completely relaxed, because of a scene that was unbelievable even when Kwon Taek Joo was witnessing it with his own eyes. Everywhere, from all four directions, there is only snow, snow, snow. He couldn''t even see a single tree, even to feel the distance was really difficult because of the pure white color that met his eyes. A scene no different from the vast ocean. Kwon Taek Joo also doesn''t know how he got here because he has no memory of him using his legs to move here. His consciousness had been unclear since meeting Zhenya at the embassy. There were times when he felt the air and temperature changing, but it was still shocking to see such an unfamiliar scene. Where the hell is this place? How many days have passed? Kwon Taek Joo was vaguely aware of reality but the back of his neck suddenly tightened. A cool scent spreads. He reflexively turned his head and met his blue eyes. Zhenya had just come out of the shower with wet hair that was thicker than usual. Her body was naked, revealing an ugly object between her legs. Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach felt tense when he faced that giant weapon. Was that thing put inside you? Kwon Taek Joo''s butt suddenly cramped in pain. Zhenya is back as usual, even the eyes looking at Kwon Taek Joo are calm and cold. The marks left on Kwon Taek Joo''s body proved that everything that had happened was true, but his extremely calm face and clean appearance seemed to tease him as if he had just had a dream. Kwon Taek Joo took a step back and frowned angrily. Suddenly the cold window sill touched his back. With no room to retreat, he clenched his hands into defensive fists and glared at Zhenya as if he were about to tear him apart. Zhenya spoke up indifferently. "Why don''t you go take a shower, you''re so dirty." He nodded toward the bathroom. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body was wet and sticky, he really needed to take a shower. However, Kwon Taek Joo''s vigilance did not calm down. Would a cornered mouse look like that when it meets a cat? Just a slight movement is enough for it to raise its feathers and rush out to attack. But Zhenya did not hesitate and reached out his hand, which was violently thrown away before it could touch Kwon Taek Joo. The scratch on the back of his hand appeared squiggly and then turned red and hot. "Do not touch me." Kwon Taek Joo wrinkled his nose and growled. Zhenya quietly looked at the back of his red hand and shrugged, his face remaining calm and unchanged. On the contrary, there was only a slight smile that Kwon Taek Joo did not know what it meant. Zhenya gently turned around to get out of the way. A series of leisurely and indifferent actions like a conqueror who has completely defeated his opponent. Kwon Taek Joo''s mood suddenly calmed down, he pushed Zhenya with his shoulder and walked past. This time he obediently moved aside. With eyes watching behind her, Kwon Taek Joo slammed the bathroom door shut. He leaned his back against the closed door and sighed, ruffling his falling black hair. From special gestures to smiles and Zhenya''s naked eyes, it made him uncomfortable. Kwon Taek Joo just wanted to bury as quickly as possible the embarrassing moments he shared with him. Zhenya is clearly the culprit and also the witness to Kwon Taek Joo''s tragic collapse before his primitive instincts. Has the aftertaste of sex ever been this dirty and humiliating? No amount of violence or torture could compare to his current state of being like a dog. Kwon Taek Joo himself had never felt so helpless, he didn''t know what to do with the feeling of having to give up when being subdued like this. Everything becomes confusing and chaotic. Kwon Taek Joo wants to wash away all remaining traces on his body. He turned on the shower and stood still for a long time under the hot water. His body and mind gradually calmed down. I have to go back. If Kwon Taek Joo can somehow escape Zhenya''s clutches and reach Korea, all the pieces that have been dislocated since he mistook him for his colleague will be put back in place. Your identity that was distorted and destroyed by him will also be restored. Kwon Taek Joo watched from inside the bathroom. There might be a key to escape somewhere. The first thing that caught his eye was the window on one side of the wall. However, its width is too narrow for a person to squeeze through, it is even blocked by thick and strong barriers. There is sunlight shining through it from outside, if the wall is not too hard or too thick, Kwon Taek Joo should try to find the weak point and smash it. He stepped out of the shower, dried himself and the soles of his feet, then put on a thick bathrobe and tied it tightly around his waist. Kwon Taek Joo still doesn''t know where this is, but if an area can build a villa of this scale, there must be other houses. He will be able to arrange a place to hide and find a car or other means of transportation. So all Kwon Taek Joo has to do right now is get out of the villa. He made up his mind and stood under the window. Kwon Taek Joo tried sweeping the wall, but the bathroom tiles were too slippery. Climbing up the window with your bare hands is absurd. He immediately rummaged through his closet looking for a solution, but all he found were a few towels, facial cleansing products, and cleaning supplies. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head and suddenly threw a towel on the floor. He used a razor to tear the long scarf and tied both ends of a piece of scarf cut to the right width to form an unbreakable knot. Kwon Taek Joo connected a dusting clip to the rope. The end of the rope had become quite heavy. He looked up at the window, estimated the distance and height, then threw the clip with all his might like a dart. The clamp hit the metal bars with a prolonged sound and then fell uselessly. Kwon Taek Joo had to try again before Zhenya noticed, but the result was the same. I Can''t give up. Impossible. If Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t escape. what would his life be like and how would he die? A well-fed beast will be docile, but it will quickly change its attitude and become cruel as soon as hunger returns. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t sit still and wait for that moment. He made up his mind again. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the towel under the clamp and rotated the clamp in the air to obtain centrifugal force. When the thrust reached a certain level. Kwon Taek Joo threw it like a spear towards the high window. The clamp flew quickly and slid between two iron bars. He took a deep breath and yanked the attached rope, the clamp lying on its side and clamped tightly between the bars. Alright. Kwon Taek Joo used a towel string to quickly clean the slippery tiles on the wall and then thoroughly wiped the soles of his feet again. After a series of preparations, he was ready to grab the rope with both hands. Kwon Taek Joo slowly pressed the soles of his feet against the wall and put his body weight on the rope. He kept falling down in vain, but after a while of perseverance, Kwon Taek Joo was able to climb up proficiently. He quickly crossed his legs and hung himself under the window frame, then quickly grabbed the iron bars. Kwon Taek Joo''s left leg slipped but he stretched out his right arm immediately. His chest hit the wall hard as he tried to hold on to the iron bar. He endured the pain and supported his whole body with one arm. Then he raised his other arm to grasp the iron bar. And then Kwon Taek Joo was certain that the iron bars on the window could not be cut with any tools he had. He tried to shake it as hard as he could but to no avail. The cold iron bars did not move. Kwon Taek Joo pulled it until he was exhausted and then gave up and let it go. "Ah!" His butt hit the floor. His buttocks, which were supposed to reduce shock, were now causing him pain. After a while of groaning, Kwon Taek Joo slowly stood up and frantically searched for another escape tool. He saw the drain pipe in the sink. Kwon Taek Joo recklessly pulled it out and used all his strength to smash it against the wall. "Fuck, fuck, fuck!" Every time I hit the drain pipe, there was a swearing sound. Zhenya must have noticed the commotion in the bathroom, but Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t back down. He gathered all his strength and hit the wall, the solid bricks began to crack. In desperation, Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the cracked brick with his bare hands and tore it apart. But it didn''t take long for Kwon Taek Joo to stop, because another wall appeared where the brick fell. It''s not just a simple concrete wall, it''s like a rock that has been smoothed and polished, perhaps even an excavator wouldn''t be able to drill through it. Is Kwon Taek Joo trying in vain again? He couldn''t try any more because he was completely exhausted. Kwon Taek Joo tiredly trudged out but suddenly stopped, because Zhenya had been standing in front of the door. He stared at Kwon Taek Joo''s haggard face and then looked inside the bathroom, then he smiled. "Are you done having fun yet?" Kwon Taek Joo glared at him without bothering to speak. He didn''t even have enough energy left to speak. Zhenya looked at him with amusement and ridicule, then suddenly reached out his hand. Kwon Taek Joo was startled unconsciously. The outstretched hand suddenly paused in the air for a moment and then grabbed the cloak. Then without saying a word, Zhenya pulled him somewhere. Kwon Taek Joo instinctively tried his best to hold his body back, but he was still dragged away. He was worried about what he was going to do to torture him, but the place Zhenya took Kwon Taek Joo to was an unexpected dining room. He was looking confusedly at the strange room with only a table large enough to seat ten people when he was pushed into a chair. A piercing pain emanated from below. Kwon Taek Joo was clenching his fists trying to endure when the food was brought in front of him. It''s Blini, a Russian-style pancake that just looking at the image on the packaging is enough to make Kwon Taek Joo sick. He moved the plate aside and asked. "Where the hell is this place?" "Even if I told you, you wouldn''t know." "Where is this place?" "Ajinoki Island." What place is that? Kwon Taek Joo''s face darkened. Zhenya smirked. "See, I told you you wouldn''t know. This is an uninhabited island 60 kilometers from Murmansk." Kwon Taek Joo doubted his ears. Murmansk is the northernmost region of Russia, 200 km from the Arctic Circle. But an island 60km away? And is it an uninhabited island? "No way. Is there really an uninhabited island? Who can live here?" Kwon Taek Joo muttered denying reality, the questions sounded like self-defense monologues, no crazy person would build a villa on a remote island where no one lives and no one goes around. But Zhenya''s assertion that followed cruelly extinguished even that faint glimmer of hope. "There''s nothing here but this house." That crazy guy. Kwon Taek Joo stared blankly at Zhenya, it was hard to believe that no one or means existed to help him escape. Zhenya again pulled the plate of Blini from before in front of Kwon Taek Joo. "I brought it, so you should eat it, unless you want to starve to death." What he said didn''t sound like a joke at all. Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach was empty and rumbling. If he didn''t put anything in, he probably wouldn''t be able to bear it. But Kwon Taek Joo rarely eats Russian food, and even his crushed self-esteem shows resistance to the food that Zhenya seems to be generously offering. Kwon Taek Joo glanced at the cold plate of blini, but soon his stomach growled again. This is not the time to show pride. He reached for a piece of blini with a shy expression and put it in his mouth. His stomach was excitedly preparing to receive food after a long time, but Kwon Taek Joo''s jaw moved extremely slowly. Zhenya kept looking at his face as if admiring an interesting scene. Kwon Taek Joo turned away to avoid his eyes and continued digging through innocent pieces of blini. "I''m probably going to get bloated. Why are you free to stay here like this?" "I''m not too busy." "Why aren''t you busy? Don''t you have to clean up that mess?" "Cleaning up the mess? Ah, you mean the blueprint? It seemed like you were excited to blow it up, but unfortunately it didn''t cost me that much. If it was as loose as it was Then I couldn''t have survived to this day in the first place." "What are you talking about?" "What do you think you can do with the blueprints that you and your colleagues took away? Are you going to use it to develop a new weapon that can be compared to ''Anastasia''? No, you can''t do that. That''s okay. Because I''m the only person in this world who can analyze that design." Zhenya''s cheerful expression looked as if what he had just said was not nonsense. If it was simply because of the design that no one could touch him, then Zhenya must have come up with a way to not completely lose it even if it was lost. He couldn''t be careless for even a second when he held in his hands was what everyone was aiming for. There is actually no way to prove that the blueprints were lost. The only people who know that the room exploded is the blueprint, at most only Zhenya and his relatives. Would one of them risk his privilege and his life to reveal the truth? Salman is a target of surveillance by the Russian government, so there is no reason for him to stand out and attract attention. Depressed. Kwon Taek Joo thought he had dealt Zhenya a fatal blow, but instead it turned into a handshake that pushed his head into that bastard''s mouth. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s stiff and sulky face, his eyes were like a cat watching a trapped mouse. "I told you. From now on you have to find a way to save your life." Chapter 34 - 3.4 Contrabass Solo 4 Chapter 34: 3.4 Contrabass Solo 4Zhenya placed the shafka on the table, the slightest movement causing the fur coat to flutter, as if a living animal were riding on his shoulders. Kwon Taek Joo sat sideways on the sofa to watch him prepare. I didn''t ask where he was going. Zhenya also said nothing. A while later, Kwon Taek Joo walked up the stairs. The sound of propellers rang out immediately afterward. Perhaps it was an illusion, but it seemed like the window was shaking slightly. Kwon Taek Joo was shocked and quickly ran to the window. A helicopter was flying right above him and into space, inside seemed to be that bastard. ''I brought it, you should eat it, unless you want to starve to death.'' Does that mean that? The helicopter quickly became a dot and disappeared. Zhenya probably doesn''t intend to ride it out to the grocery store. Is it okay if he leaves only you as a prisoner like this? Kwon Taek Joo raised a question while forgetting the current situation. He looked down at his hands. His wrists were not tied with rope, let alone handcuffs. Kwon Taek Joo is free as a bird. Not only that. Both the windows and doors were unlocked. Is Zhenya asking you to disappear while he''s not here? Kwon Taek Joo quickly turned around with a skeptical expression. He went into the living room and checked the condition of the fireplace. Only piles of ashes remain after burning, the warmth has almost disappeared. Not lighting the fire anymore means he will be absent for a long time. Was Zhenya careless? No, that bastard is not that kind of person. I just don''t know if he underestimated that Kwon Taek Joo himself wouldn''t be able to escape even if he went like this. A smile appeared on Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. Whatever the reason, this is a golden opportunity. Maybe he will be very angry, but right now preserving your life is the most important thing. Kwon Taek Joo was about to rush out when he suddenly remembered how he dressed. He couldn''t freeze to death in vain, Kwon Taek Joo went straight for Zhenya''s dressing room. Hundreds of decent clothes were hung in the narrow and deep room but he couldn''t even think of what to wear. He took out a jacket that seemed to fit him and put it on. Both the length and width are absurdly large. Kwon Taek Joo folded his sleeves and tied his belt just right then went out. The heavy door pushed the pile of snow on the floor and slowly opened. Breathing outside air for the first time, a stream of cold, clear air penetrated Kwon Taek Joo''s lungs. It was cold enough to make his throat constrict. He pulled back his collar and strode forward. The snowfields stretched on endlessly, with no signs of life anywhere. Is it like this when you suddenly fall into the desert? He was confused and didn''t know which direction to go. A snowy mountain in the distance looks like a screen, but it''s hard to tell whether it''s snow on the mountain or natural snow, and it''s hard to open your eyes when the white snowfield reflects the sunlight. It seemed like the entire land inherently rejected human settlement. Kwon Taek Joo turned his back on the snowy mountains and moved towards the blowing sea smelling winds. His lips are a bit salty so it seems like there is a sea side lately. His feet sank with each step and quickly became soaked to the knees, his skin was numb and itchy, and the cold wind blew like it was cutting his skin. Kwon Taek Joo hurriedly walked through the fluttering snow. A moment later he reached the beach with gentle waves lapping at his feet. Zhenya said that this place is 60 km from Murmansk. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t find a small island or a coral reef nearby. Everything became distant again. But that doesn''t mean Kwon Taek Joo will give up. He was going to die, one way or another, and whatever the outcome was, it was better than playing around in Zhenya''s clutches. Kwon Taek Joo returned to the path he came from. Swimming 60 km with a fragile body was impossible, so he had to find some way, if not, he planned to cut a birch tree to make a boat. Kwon Taek Joo returned to the villa after walking non-stop. He lit a fire in the fireplace and sat in front of it to thaw his whole body and then went down to the basement. As expected, all kinds of household items were piled up in the basement warehouse. He boldly stepped into it. A thick layer of dust flew up blindly. sea??h th§× N?velFire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. -- "Found it." With his dusty face shining brightly, Kwon Taek Joo found a kayak after half a day of diving. No matter how you look at it, it''s just a boat for one person, but that''s enough to make him emotional. Without it, Kwon Taek Joo would have to cut down a frozen birch tree outside. He put the kavak on his back and left the villa. The boat was made of much heavier wood than he thought. Considering the heavy snowfall, Kwon Taek Joo was more prepared than before but his feet still sank deeper because of the kavak. It was not easy to take even one step, his toes were gradually becoming numb. Kwon Taek Joo is willing to endure frostbite. Compared to the difficulties he has experienced so far, this hardship is nothing. If you are smart enough and try hard enough, the weather will definitely help you escape. The fierce snowstorm that had lasted until this morning had subsided, the heavy snowfall had subsided, and the sea that he had come to with great difficulty had calmed down. "Alright." Kwon Taek Joo immediately placed the kayak on the water. He carefully pressed each place on the boat''s hull and checked to see if it was leaking water. Contrary to concerns, none of the corners are worn or damaged, and the weight balance is also quite well adjusted so it won''t tip over easily. Kwon Taek Joo immediately placed the kayak on the water. He carefully pressed each place on the boat''s hull and checked to see if it was leaking water. Contrary to concerns, none of the corners are worn or damaged, and the weight balance is also quite well adjusted so it won''t tip over easily. Kwon Taek Joo held the oar for a while and waited for the boat''s body to shake less. The kayak, which was shaking violently, gradually regained stability. He took a deep breath and then used all his strength to hit the water surface. While in the special forces. Kwon Taek Joo once went on a 20 km round trip on a rubber inflatable boat. He will have to travel three times that distance to reach the mainland but with the help of the weather, there is nothing Kwon Taek Joo cannot do. This is no longer training but real combat, desperation that pushes human''s potential to the maximum. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and rowed even harder. The force of the water hit the boat hard and was pushed out. The kayak continued to turn the water and move forward. But the real ambush was the ocean weather. Just because the coast is quiet doesn''t mean the ocean is the same. The kayak, which had been moving forward strongly for a while, suddenly began to spin. Rising waves quickly pushed the boat''s hull to shore. Kwon Taek Joo could no longer control the boat even when he tried to row. If he keeps being swept away like this, his fragile kayak will sink. Kwon Taek Joo kept his oars steady and moved forward. The strong wind blew with high waves, the kayak lost momentum and swayed violently, the boat''s head could not be completely oriented and began to spin. Meanwhile, fierce waves continuously hit the boat''s hull, the kayak swayed precariously as if it would capsize immediately. Kwon Taek Joo managed to keep his balance by moving the oar to the opposite side but he could barely control the small boat against the big waves. The waves pounded relentlessly against the boat. The second wave was larger and more ferocious than the first wave. The sea that is neither blue nor black opens its mouth as if swallowing everything. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body was soaked in the fierce water, ice crystals seemed to grow from the wet skin. Kwon Taek Joo''s heart beat violently at the feeling that his survival was threatened. "Ah!" He faced the wave with all his might, but even as he pushed the oar desperately, the boat''s hull still moved only slowly. The deep sea swallowed the strength he had worked so hard to build, but Kwon Taek Joo still tried his best to row the boat in place because if he sat still, the boat would be swept away in an instant. "Ha!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted in shock. As if realizing his efforts, the bow of the boat was moving forward little by little. But unfortunately, that hopeful situation did not last long. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo heard a very loud noise, he looked ahead in bewilderment. A dark blue wall was approaching from afar. It was a wave the size of a house If you face him head-on, you won''t be able to survive. Before his head could give an order, his arms and legs moved automatically, but the continuous ripples kept wrapping around Kwon Taek Joo''s ankles. The wave crashed before his eyes while he could not move, his black muzzle opened wide. It''s here. Just as intuition alerted the brain, the giant wave hit the kayak straight. Kwon Taek Joo was helplessly sucked deep into the water in the blink of an eye before he even realized it. The strong force of the water pushed his whole body deeper. Kwon Taek Joo choked. A moment later, the water that was pushed in continuously flowed back and burst white, taking Kwon Taek Joo with it. He raised his legs above the water to avoid being swept into the sea again. Underwater is terrifyingly quiet, but above is still a battlefield. Waves came from all directions, leaving Kwon Taek Joo unable to breathe. "I will never give up!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted frantically. He cannot submit to this challenge. He stretched out his cramped arms and leaned against the water, his legs also stretched out. Every time he turned his neck to breathe, the salty seawater rose. His lungs tightened, making Kwon Taek Joo gasp. Despite all his efforts to separate the water and move forward, his body, which had no strength left, was immediately pushed back. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body relaxed from exhaustion. He kept being pushed up and then swept in, then pushed up again and swept back. He couldn''t imagine where he was drifting or how much further he had to go. He also didn''t know if he would even be able to return to Ajinoki Island. My arm felt like it weighed a thousand pounds and no longer obeyed Will Kwon Taek Joo die like this? "..?" Something caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes just when he was about to give up. That was the remains of the previously broken kayak floating on the sea surface swept away by the waves. The survival instinct that had been extinguished flared up again, and he exhausted all his remaining strength to chase after it. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the board that looked like it would disappear instantly. The body that was about to be submerged was suddenly supported firmly. He leaned back for a moment and took a heavy breath, his whole body feeling as heavy as soaked cotton wool. Kwon Taek Joo wanders aimlessly at sea. The sunset was setting behind him. -- The sound of waves gently lapping in my ears. Kwon Taek Joo''s body is still being supported by something. Is it the remains of a kayak? But it''s much tougher than that. It does not shake at all even in the constant rushing water, Kwon Taek Joo could feel the roughness touching his cheeks. His fingers wiggled, the wet sand in his hand. Kwon Taek Joo tried to lift his drooping eyelids. It was pitch black all around and he couldn''t see anything. He lay on his stomach like that for a while after waking up. He also didn''t dare stand up. The waves still crashed into Kwon Taek Joo''s wet body. His limbs trembled as his senses awakened. He tried to move in every way but his body was frozen from cold and fatigue and did not move. Can this be called survival? The most reassuring thing is that Kwon Taek Joo is no longer floating at sea. Right now he doesn''t know where this place is, but luckily he has arrived on the mainland. He tried to lift his upper body. Sea water flowed from Kwon Taek Joo''s hair and clothes. The lungs that had been compressed for a while calmed down and let out a deep breath. He drank so much cold and salty sea water that his stomach was churning and his head felt strange. Kwon Taek Joo slowly looked around. While unable to see even a centimeter ahead due to lack of light, suddenly there was a human presence. There was the sound of someone stepping on the sand and approaching. Kwon Taek Joo tried to call for help but no sound came out. Looks like your vocal cords are damaged. Kwon Taek Joo squeezed his neck as hard as possible and screamed. "Here!" The voice was hoarse and broken. The sound of footsteps gradually approached and stopped in the distance. Kwon Taek Joo''s arm that was happily raised suddenly stopped. Because the savior who appeared in the darkness was none other than Zhenya. "Swimming in the ocean at night? Is that your special hobby, huh." Probably just a nightmare. Otherwise, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand how he got here. Zhenya was still wearing the same clothes he went out in. Impossible. Has he returned to Ajinoki Island? Kwon Taek Joo quickly glanced around but the darkness made it impossible for him to distinguish the terrain. "Get up if you don''t want to freeze to death." It''s not incorrect either. Teeth collide and make clicking sounds. If this continues, Kwon Taek Joo will go straight to hell because of hypothermia. He staggered for a moment to stand up and then sat down again. He tried to stand up again but this time even the arm supporting his upper body lost its strength and slid and Kwon Taek Joo fell down helplessly. Zhenya stood watching and then openly clicked his tongue. Then with a reluctant expression, he grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s elbow. Only the arm was pulled up, while the heavy body hung down like water-soaked cotton and still did not move. Zhenya shook his head and sighed then suddenly bent down. The smell of his body buried in the sea breeze becomes even stronger. Kwon Taek Joo''s arm reflexively tried to throw him away but was quickly grabbed by him and he immediately slung him over his shoulder. "You''re more troublesome than animals." Zhenya also did not forget to scold him. Every time he walked, Kwon Taek Joo''s body shook. Sea water trapped in the body also flows down and wets the clothes. Zhenya didn''t pay attention and just quietly walked towards the villa. Kwon Taek Joo instinctively pressed his body into the soft fur coat, deeply burying his face that had lost all feeling due to the cold. The black waves winding behind the two people that were gradually getting farther away. Chapter 35 - 3.5 Contrabass Solo 5 Chapter 35: 3.5 Contrabass Solo 5Hot water poured down, Kwon Taek Joo was thrown into the bathtub with his wet clothes intact. Warm energy quickly spread throughout his body. His lower jaw trembled even as he curled up tightly. His lips also turned pale. Zhenya sat down in the bathtub and roughly pulled off Kwon Taek Joo''s clothes. The wet shirt that stuck uncomfortably to his body was torn into pieces. He nonchalantly took off his pants. The zipper was ripped off, then he grabbed the bottom and turned it over. Kwon Taek Joo''s lower body was lifted up in an instant and his upper body fell into the bathtub. A large amount of water rushed into his nose and ears. Kwon Taek Joo struggled but he could barely keep his upper body steady. The cough broke out intermittently. "Cough." The inside of his nose and throat quickly became irritated. As if that wasn''t enough, Zhenya turned on the shower head hanging on the wall and sprayed water so that Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t open his eyes. Even when bathing animals, no one does it like that bastard. "Are you stupid or brave?" Zhenya muttered in an unintelligible voice. "I''m sorry, but human power alone is not enough to leave this island. In the sea nearby, there is a coastal current that pushes everything towards this island." That''s probably why he comfortably went out even after leaving Kwon Taek Joo alane here. Around the islands there are often strong belt currents. If they cannot penetrate that current, they will be swept away by waves and pushed back to the coast. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even know it and swam to death over and over again. He burst out laughing with frustration. "Don''t be so hard in the future. If I have to pick you up like today, it will be very troublesome." Zhenya demanded with disdain and stood up. The showerhead he was holding fell into the bathtub, causing water to splash. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away to avoid the water. The bathroom door made a loud noise and slammed shut. Left alone, Kwon Taek Joo slowly stroked his face. His shaking fingers and toes still tingled from the numbness. The blood seemed to be circulating rapidly, spreading a tingling sensation throughout his body. The sudden change in temperature made his head dizzy. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body became tired, his mind and body were so exhausted that all his will was gone. He just wanted to lie down in front of a warm fire. Kwon Taek Joo lifted himself up, but even that alone made him stagger. The limbs attached to his body moved slowly as if they were no longer his. Kwon Taek Joo limped out wearing only a robe and untied belt. All that was on his mind was the fireplace. Kwon Taek Joo was about to go into the living room but Zhenya suddenly blocked the path. Right now, even looking up at him was beyond his strength. "What''s wrong?" The fatigue was evident in his weak voice. Zhenya calmly spoke up. "Are you going to skip dinner?" After dying and coming back to life, do we still have to eat rice? It''s not that Kwon Taek Joo meant to be rude, but he really didn''t have the strength to lift the spoon halfway. He waved his hands with an annoyed expression. S§×ar?h the N?velFire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Don''t need it." Zhenya suddenly let go of Kwon Taek Joo. He left him behind and disappeared into the kitchen alone. Kwon Taek Joo was about to continue walking when a scent entered his nose. Is it wrong? His legs moved automatically, the closer he got to the kitchen, the clearer the scent became. An unprecedented craving for food made Kwon Taek Joo''s jaws stiffen. His eyes looked straight at the pot in Zhenya''s hand. There, a pungent smell that touches the hearts of Koreans is emanating. Looking at the packaging still lying next to the kitchen counter, Kwon Taek Joo knew for sure it was it. Zhenya carried the pot from the stove to the sink and as if emptying out everything inside, he tilted the pot without hesitation. The moment the ramen broth dripped into the sink, Kwon Taek Joo ran over and grabbed his hand. "I''ll eat." "..." "I will eat." Kwon Taek Joo conveyed his intentions again and took the pot away. He reached for any fork that was within reach and hurriedly scooped up the ramen. A few noodles hung from the fork, but before they could reach the tip of the tongue, they slid into the pot. It stays that way no matter how many times Kwon Taek Joo tries. Losing patience, he used scissors to cut the noodles into small pieces, then placed his mouth on the pot and drank the broth at the same time as the noodles. Zhenya crossed his arms and observed Kwon Taek Joo, who was still limp like a corpse, then he turned his eyes to the ramen package. He picked it up and looked at it for a moment then tilted his head. "Does it have drugs in it?" -- Kwon Taek Joo lay down on the fur blanket and lit the fire. The rolling heat started from the back and slowly warmed the entire tired body. He was full and felt comfortable. Kwon Taek Joo even yawned peacefully. Who risked his life to escape this island? Kwon Taek Joo didn''t try to open his drooping eyelids, he used his arm as a pillow and fell into a deep sleep. His back slowly bulged and then deflated, making a loud breathing sound. Consciousness vaguely enters the world of the unconscious. Soon Zhenya appeared. The unique scent makes it impossible for Kwon Taek Joo to recognize it. His shadow hovered in front of the fireplace. Then, a naked gaze landed on Kwon Taek Joo''s face. He wondered if he had something to say, but once he closed his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t lift them anymore. He just wanted to be buried in this sweet, body melting feeling He pretended not to know but the bottom was suddenly empty, because the robe had been raised above his waist and his buttocks were exposed. "Go somewhere else, kid." Kwon Taek Joo still closed his eyes and muttered. He waved his hands as if annoying, but Zhenya didn''t mind and continued to grope the waist area right above his buttocks. No, it feels thicker and softer to the touch than a finger. Before Kwon Taek Joo had time to realize what it was, Zhenya climbed on his back. "I told you I was tired." Kwon Taek Joo pushed him away again with an annoyed look. Perhaps the words had an effect, the weight on his back decreased at the same time as Kwon Taek Joo''s grimace also relaxed. Now you can sleep soundly without being disturbed. A satisfied smile spread across Kwon Taek Joo''s lips. Suddenly his shoulders jerked up while he was falling asleep, because something hard was being pushed between his buttocks. Its aura silently heated up uncomfortably. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes and turned around. but he still stubbornly followed and rubbed his head between his buttocks. "Sleep comfortably. Sleeping while having sex isn''t that bad." Zhenya''s voice gently reached his ears while Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body was completely out of the control of his head that was still deep in a silent sleep. He opened his ass and slowly put something in. Even in his sleep, the tingling pain still penetrated throughout Kwon Taek Joo''s body. "Um ah." A soft groan came out, his body began to tremble slowly. The bottom was punctured, but his consciousness became more and more distant, Kwon Taek Joo gradually fell asleep. -- When he opened his eyes, the sun had already reached the middle of the sky. Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes feeling much more refreshed than when he fell asleep like he was unconscious. The sudden movements hurt his lower back and butt, but not enough to make him groan. Kwon Taek Joo looked around bewilderedly and then suddenly stared at his crotch. Why is that possible? He tried to deny it and lifted the blanket. It''s not a mistake. The immature object between his feet was raising its head upright. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t dream about anything last night, nor did he have anything to get an erection while sleeping. He was startled and searched for his memories. Kwon Taek Joo remembered he talked to Zhenya until before going to bed. I remember he said it was okay to have sex and sleep and he didn''t hesitate to put it in. Every time Kwon Taek Joo woke up halfway, that bastard was still on top of him. It seems that one time he clamped it on his thigh and pushed his hips. Kwon Taek Joo hesitantly checked the inside of his thighs, the bruises appeared clearly as if they were not an illusion. How much did he rub that disgusting thing to make it like this? No, that doesn''t matter now. Kwon Taek Joo did it again with Zhenya last night. His erect penis must have been the result of him, but other than that, he couldn''t find any other reason. Kwon Taek Joo is so embarrassed that just because of a package of ramen, he physically merged with him. "I can''t believe it. I''m crazy. Really crazy!" Kwon Taek Joo screamed and scratched his hair that was falling in front of his face. He doesn''t want to admit it. But he couldn''t pretend that nothing had happened. On the contrary, the more he denied it, the more clearly he would remember what happened last night. Even the feeling of Zhenya''s lips touching his skin came back vividly. Kwon Taek Joo immediately left his seat and stood up. He wandered around the mansion without the slightest concern about putting his almost off robe back on. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen, it seemed he had boarded the helicopter again and left. I don''t know what the hell that guy was thinking, when facing him at the embassy, Kwon Taek Joo had a premonition of his doom. Zhenya had no reason to keep him alive. But he''s still breathing, and since that day, he hasn''t tried to hurt Kwon Taek Joo anymore. Why so? Or did he think it would be more fun to kill him slowly instead of killing him with one shot? Or is it because Kwon Taek Joo''s life is so insignificant compared to what Zhenya lost? I don''t know half of it either. What are his real intentions? Kwon Taek Joo was still repeating the doubts in his head when something soggy flowed down his thigh. Kwon Taek Joo looked down and gritted his teeth. No matter what his intentions were, he had to go take a shower first. He rushed into the bathroom and turned on the shower. Kwon Taek Joo stood under the water looking into the mirror, a tattoo on the back of his waist caught his eye at first sight. Zhenya was marking him like a cow or a pig. No, it''s not much of a difference. He was imprisoned in a cage surrounded by the sea on all four sides and only ate the food he gave him. ''This is just a contract between a lord and a servant.'' Kwon Taek Joo frowned angrily. The area of skin that was swollen immediately after the tattoo has now subsided, but the area around it is still mottled for another reason. That''s because of the unusual hickeys. He clicked his tongue to finish the shower. But he still couldn''t relax, because that stupid mass of flesh still hadn''t calmed down. Its aura is so good that its red head feels like it could hit his stomach. Kwon Taek Joo placed his forehead against the wall and bowed his head slightly. He grabbed his hot penis and started stroking it roughly. The tingling sensation in the groin increased, the muscles that had been silent became visibly twisted in pleasure. "Damned." Kwon Taek Joo lowered his head more and more. His teeth clenched tightly, creating a grinding sound that made the veins in his lower jaw stand out. He stroked as if he wanted to tear off his excited flesh. Kwon Taek Joo''s body was engulfed in hot arousal and kept clinging to his moving hand. Kwon Taek Joo''s fingertips dug hard into the wall. Not long after, the lower part of the body bounced violently. "Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo roared like an animal and spewed semen. His body temperature quickly dropped, making him shiver. The front of his eyes turned white, causing dizziness. Kwon Taek Joo gradually regained his composure, a sudden feeling of loss of strength overtook him. He looked at the semen scattered on the wall and laughed to himself. Who is the person who once bragged that even if there were only men in this world, he wouldn''t plug into that hole? Just because you have sex in the back multiple times doesn''t mean the front has to react as well. Is Kwon Taek Joo becoming gay? He shook his head. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t want to have to think about a problem that he had never even thought about once in his life. He finished washing his dirty body and left the bathroom. Masturbation was also work, and his stomach was immediately hungry. Kwon Taek Joo went into the kitchen and rummaged through the cabinets but couldn''t find the package of ramen he ate yesterday. All that could be found was Russian-style pre-cooked food. Frustrated, he put one of them in the microwave. How long will it take this time? Kwon Taek Joo estimated the time Zhenya would return while waiting for the food to be heated. If he intended to come back during the day, he wouldn''t have gone at noon like this, so at least Zhenya wouldn''t come back today. During that time, Kwon Taek Joo had to escape. Ever since he got stuck on Ajinoki Island, all he could think about was running away. Kwon Taek Joo can''t continue to live like this forever. There are only two ways to get off this remote island with no boats or passersby. Ride a helicopter or use a boat equipped with a powerful engine. Kwon Taek Joo searched the mansion a few days ago and only found a kayak, and even that was destroyed. The only hope left is to fly. The problem is where and how to get the raw materials. Kwon Taek Joo was immersed in thought. The wind blew from the open window for ventilation, the curtains fluttered gently. He looked at the scene meaninglessly and then opened his eyes wide. Suddenly a thought flashed through Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. Parasailing. Right. If it jumps far enough and is supported by the wind, it can fly a distance of 100 km. If the thrust is doubled thanks to skis in the snowy highlands, Kwon Taek Joo can completely reach Murmansk, 60 km away. Thoughts continued to appear one after another, and paragliding preparation methods were quickly concretized. While rummaging through the mansion a few days ago, Kwon Taek Joo discovered an umbrella covering household items. It covers all the furniture in the warehouse, so the width is just enough. Kwon Taek Joo sometimes paraglides, so he clearly understands its structure and operating principles. It''s worth trying to make your own umbrella at this time. The microwave announced that it had finished cooking, but Kwon Taek Joo did not take the food out and went straight to the basement. The parachute fabric was still intact in the position he saw. A bundle of acrylic fibers was also found in a nearby toolbox. New hope arose. Due to the geographical characteristics of the island, the wind blows strongly and non-stop from all directions. It is unfortunate that the new, good quality parachute fabric is used as a tarpaulin and right now, the surrounding area is covered. Because snow is also a blessing. Kwon Taek Joo immediately squatted down and cut the parachute fabric out. -- Zhenya returned the next morning. He returned earlier than expected, so Kwon Taek Joo stopped sewing and hurried upstairs. He went into the bathroom, threw away his dusty clothes and quickly washed himself before he came down from the roof. Kwon Taek Joo wrapped himself in a towel and walked out, but Zhenya was standing right in front of the door. "Oh, did you just come back?" Kwon Taek Joo was embarrassed, he even raised his hand to say hello. Zhenya looked down at Kwon Taek Joo with a strange expression. He bit his hand in embarrassment because of Zhenya''s suspicious expression as if he had eaten something by mistake. Why did he come back so early? I have a lot of work to do today. After sewing the fabric, Kwon Taek Joo had to find something that could be used as a belt and connect it. And if he has time, he plans to look around the island to calculate wind speed and direction. It will take another three days of test flying but there is no sign that the Zhenya will be out again anytime soon. While worrying about this and that, Kwon Taek Joo accidentally followed Zhenya. He pulled off his fur coat as he entered the living room. The coat slid over his back and fell to the floor. Then shirt buttons and collars were also continuously removed. I don''t know if it was an illusion, but every time he took off something, his body odor seemed to become more intense. Zhenya quickly sat down in the armchair in front of the fireplace. Kwon Taek Joo, who was following him, also stopped, looking hesitant as if he had something to say. "What''s up?" "When are you leaving again?" Zhenya just stared at Kwon Taek Joo without answering. He felt that Kwon Taek Joo seemed a bit strange. He pretended not to know and fixed his eyes on Zhenya''s lips. It was a look of worry and expectation. "I won''t go for a while. Going out is too troublesome." "What''s bothering you?" "Headquarters is asking for you to be taken out. My brothers are also scolding me that you must be punished to set an example for the family''s pride." Zhenya grinned. Kwon Taek Joo was speechless so he kept his mouth shut. It wouldn''t be strange if Zhenya immediately dragged him to FSB headquarters. The FSB knew that Kwon Taek Joo was a secret agent of South Korea and that he entered Russia in disguise for intelligence activities. Somehow. he even discovered the existence of the new weapon ''SS-29'' and he was involved in the murder of a government official and even committed a terrorist act against his family. Bogdanov. Clearly his capture would be of the highest order and he would be lucky if there was not an immediate kill order upon discovery. If caught, Kwon Taek Joo will at least be imprisoned for life and if necessary, he can be eliminated without anyone knowing. That is the situation of an intelligence officer caught in the process of carrying out an action. If he is lucky, Kwon Taek Joo may be released thanks to the exchange of spies between the two countries, but such a chance is not much because as far as he knows, there are no Russian spies detained in Korea. The problem facing him was more complicated than he thought. Even if he got off this island somehow, another difficulty was waiting for him. Without support from headquarters, can Kwon Taek Joo escape all pursuit and return home safely? He suddenly felt doubtful. But Kwon Taek Joo has no intention of giving up. As difficult as it was, there was still more hope than being locked up here waiting for Zhenya to get fed up with him and then be dragged to the FSB, or ending his life at the hands of that bastard sooner than that. The immediate problem is that he won''t be out for a while. Kwon Taek Joo must research countermeasures. Everything had better be prepared in advance so that the next time Zhenya goes out he can escape immediately. To do so, it is important to catch him off guard. Kwon Taek Joo secretly looked at Zhenya''s face. He was closing his eyes but it seemed like he wasn''t sleeping yet. He thought about secretly leaving while he was sleeping like that but then quickly gave up the idea. It''s too reckless to do that to someone as sensitive as him. Or rather, even if it''s reluctant, going with him will avoid suspicion. "I''m so bored staying inside all the time, do you want to go fishing?" Zhenya opened his closed eyes wide at the unexpected suggestion and then he didn''t say a word but just stared at Kwon Taek Joo. It seemed like Zhenya was trying to see through his intentions, but even if it wasn''t intentional, Kwon Taek Joo''s face was still full of boredom. Being locked in the house with nothing to do was something he couldn''t bear. What''s so surprising about two people spending some time together? Zhenya tilted his head as if he had heard strange words. Kwon Taek Joo tries seduction more actively. "The water is so clear that there probably won''t be any fish." "Is it a bet?" "You can say that." "What do you have to bet?" At times like this Kwon Taek Joo feels that Zhenya is truly a businessman. If he didn''t have the money to bet, he probably wouldn''t agree. But Kwon Taek Joo really has nothing to bet on. "Right now I don''t have anything to bet on, how about granting the winner''s wish?" "A wish?" "Instead, no matter what you wish for, I won''t complain." "Can you bear it?" Zhenya raised the corner of his mouth and asked again. Before starting, Kwon Taek Joo was sure that he would win. He always looked down on others like that, which made his desire to defeat this bastard even more boiling. "We''ll see, kid." Chapter 36 - 3.6 Contrabass Solo 6 Chapter 36: 3.6 Contrabass Solo 6The two stood side by side on a rock on the west side of the island and lowered their fishing rods. It is a relatively windy area. Buckets are placed right at your feet, the fish will be removed from the fishing rod and placed there. Kwon Taek Joo''s bucket was full of salmon, pollock and herring, but for some reason, Zhenya''s bucket remained empty, and his fishing rod was also motionless. Kwon Taek Joo put the newly caught pollock in the bucket and checked the wind direction. A gentle west wind blew through most of the morning, and the weather was no different from any other day. The sun was up but not too hot and the amount of clouds was not too much. It is perfect for fishing but not suitable for paragliding. Meanwhile, the fishing rod jerked up again. "Just now, you took the bait." Kwon Taek Joo muttered to himself as if for Zhenya to hear and then pulled the fishing line. A cod as big as a forearm appeared. When he threw it into the bucket, the other fish that were dying were suddenly startled and jumped away. There''s no more room in the bucket. When Kwon Taek Joo was thinking about what to do, it seemed like a look was staring at him. He turned his head and met Zhenya''s eyes. "What''s wrong? Does the fishing rod have a problem, I change it for you? Or the seat?" He pretended to look pitiful and chuckled. Zhenya''s pride must have been deeply hurt because he turned his head away without answering. Then he quietly glared at his fishing rod that was lying still. Does anyone fish that way? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t hide his bright smile. He threw the fishing rod again. The conversation was interrupted for such a long time. There was only a breeze between the two of them and they quietly watched the sea. It''s getting cold. Kwon Taek Joo wanted to go back because he had already visualized the terrain and wind direction on the west side of the island. But it seems Zhenya doesn''t think so. Should he wait until he catches a fish as big as a human? Kwon Taek Joo estimated the time again. The fishing line was pulled down again. The severity this time is significantly different. His body leaned forward on its own. Kwon Taek Joo quickly shifted his weight back and began to hold tightly to his prey that was trying to escape. The caught fish struggled violently. The winding water stream also breaks into pure white. It was clearly a big fish. Kwon Taek Joo struggled for a while and then, without knowing when, Zhenya rolled his eyes to watch that scene. He smirked and reeled in the fishing line as hard as he could. Midway, Kwon Taek Joo loosened the fishing line a bit and then rolled it up to flexibly pull the prey. Then a moment later, he used the elasticity of his belt to lift the fishing rod. Soon the stubborn fish appeared. Looking back now, it was not one fish but two fish. Kwon Taek Joo happily sang and said, "Kill two birds with one stone." As soon as Kwon Taek Joo made eye contact with Zhenya, he also appeared openly arrogant. "My bucket is full, so can I put some into yours?" This time Zhenya didn''t say anything. Kwon Taek Joo looked serious while humming a song and separated the fish from the fishing rod. Knowing this, he wouldn''t have had to work so hard on sewing. If he wins the bet, Kwon Taek Joo will make his wish and it''s nothing fancy, all Zhenya has to do is give him the keys to the helicopter. Just the thought of leaving Zhenya on this island and going out alone made him overcome with emotion. The guy''s fishing rod that was glancing at was still silent, while he himself was also intently looking at his fishing rod that had no news. That sincerity is pitiful. "Hey, We should go back now." "Shush." "No way. Do you know how many kilograms of fish you have to catch at once to win?" Zhenya signaled Kwon Taek Joo to be quiet, his eyes still facing the sea water. Is there something there? He looked at his fishing rod without expecting anything. Not sure at first, Kwon Taek Joo quickly noticed a dark shadow floating below. Is it a coral reef? Because of its unrealistic size, that was the first thing he could think of. It leisurely hovered near the fishing rod and then suddenly stopped moving. At the same time Zhenya''s fishing rod began to bend down without hesitation. The force to hold and the force to pull need to be compatible with each other. The water surface, which was calm a moment ago, suddenly curved and then broke into a white light. The fishing line looked like it would break at any moment. No, it looks like the fishing rod might break. Kwon Taek Joo was able to loosen the rope a bit but Zhenya could not. Faced with the unknown existence opposing him, Zhenya resolutely pulled the rope. The next moment, the fishing rod''s float quickly returned. When the tightrope suddenly slackens, the bait that is swinging wildly from side to side slides out. Zhenya did not miss the moment when the reins were released and wrapped around the rope immediately. Then he pulled the fish that was biting the hook using only the strength from his belt. The water splashed and something huge emerged. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even wipe the water off his face and could only look blankly. The living fish that was confronting Zhenya made a loud noise and fell down. Even then it continued to bang its tail against the stone floor. Zhenya without hesitation stabbed the knife into the fish''s gills. Red blood flowed out. He didn''t stop there, he turned the fish over. The big fish struggled for a while longer and then gradually shrouded itself. That moment the shape of the fish caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eves. It is about 150 cm long and weighs at least 40 kg. Zhenya threw the big fish that was about to suffocate at Kwon Taek Joo. He caught it but it was too heavy so he dropped it. Even though he saw it with both eyes and even if he was touched for a moment, he still couldn''t believe the truth. Zhenya looked at the bewildered Kwon Taek Joo and then smiled apologetically. "Now I have to make a wish." -- Kwon Taek Joo took off his cloak with a confused expression. The shirt slipped off his body and fell to the floor. Zhenya sat on the other side of the bed watching the scene. His upturned mouth seemed to foretell the hardships to come. His wish was too clear. All Kwon Taek Joo has only a healthy body, and that''s the only thing he''s interested in. It''s just a matter of how many obnoxious tricks will be added. Kwon Taek Joo sat still on the bed facing Zhenya. Now being naked in front of him was nothing to be ashamed of, but he wasn''t sure if he would still be like that after hearing his request. In an uneasy mood, Kwon Taek Joo planned to place another bet. "You said you wouldn''t do that to the same person more than twice." "It used to be like that." "As I recall, we''ve had sex at least three times, right?" "There''s no other way, because right now I have nowhere to plug it in." "Won''t the problem be solved if you didn''t come to this island?" Zhenya laughed as if that didn''t change anything, then without giving Kwon Taek Joo a moment to think further, he suddenly demanded. "Get down on all fours." "What?" "Don''t you understand? Bend down like an animal." "Hey, that.." "You said you won''t complain." Why did Kwon Taek Joo add that condition? Damn stupid mouth, damn it. He looked at Zhenya with his eyes asking if that was really his wish but he showed no signs of backing down. That bastard''s hobby is really dirty. Kwon Taek Joo still hesitated, Zhenya lowered his chin and looked at him urging him. He scratched his head and said. "It''s crazy," then reluctantly turned over. Kwon Taek Joo just lay down on his stomach but did not dare to stretch out his arms and legs, his clenched fists trembled with shame. "Don''t like it? I say another wish?" He silently urged. For some reason, Kwon Taek Joo had a premonition that his other wish might be worse than what was happening. He clenched his molars and slowly lifted his feet. The arms are stretched out and the prostate like a four legged animal. Zhenya stared at him from behind then tilted his head. "Spread your legs, I can''t see anything." Damn it, what else does this bastard want to see? The sound of grinding teeth rang out. There''s no good in holding back, it''s better that this moment passes quickly. Kwon Taek Joo tried to separate her legs. The penis that was curled up on the inside of the thigh slid out. Zhenya rested his chin on his arm, enjoying the sight. He slowly swept his hand down the plump buttocks, then to the firm thigh muscles, then moved to the smooth butt bone and the hanging flesh below. Kwon Taek Joo''s shaking limbs further stimulated his desire to conquer. Soon, his blue eyes were filled with a burning desire. Zhenya slowly stood up from his seat. The cloak on his shoulders also slowly fell off. He covered Kwon Taek Joo''s prone body while biting his neck hard. Kwon Taek Joo was startled and puffed out his chest, but Zhenya still didn''t move. "Ah." He bit harder on his neck as if to punish his useless resistance. a block of hard flesh was also continuously pushed between his tight buttocks. Kwon Taek Joo''s body twisted as if he folded under brutal pressure, his lungs were heavy and he was constantly out of breath, his whole body tilted forward. At that moment, the part of the penis that was inserted was pulled out, then as if dissatisfied, Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s arm and yanked it towards him. The flesh column was pulled out, leaving only the tip which was immediately penetrated deep into the root. Zhenya''s pelvis hit Kwon Taek Joo''s butt, making a loud noise. Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs clenched at the horrible feeling of penetration. He still wasn''t used to that terrible feeling even though he had experienced it several times. "Ah!" Kwon Taek Joo lowered his head with a choked groan. Zhenya held tightly the back of his neck that kept shrinking, he was blind with a desire as a male in breeding season. With the genitals inserted, Kwon Taek Joo''s ears turned red. Zhenya licked vigorously at his ear where the hair stood up. The ears quickly become hot and clammy. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away to avoid that itchy and embarrassing skinship scene while muttering "Don''t do that" "Okay, foreplay is a luxury in sexual intercourse." Immediately after that, the penis was pulled out, leaving only the glans to plunge back in. Kwon Taek Joo''s body was pushed up at the same time. Zhenya didn''t even like that, he thrust continuously as if he wanted to flatten his bulging buttocks and then rubbed hard to make the joined bodies wrap tighter. "Ah, ah!" Kwon Taek Joo felt like his stomach was being devoured. Zhenya did not let go of him, but he pulled his waist away and pushed hard inside. His body trembled as if there was an electric shock. Before that shiver disappeared, Zhenya let go of Kwon Taek Joo and then quickly poked him below as if he were riding a horse. The naked rubbing sound clearly came from the skin that was continuously being hit. The echo seemed to resonate deep inside the body. If he continued stabbing like that, Kwon Taek Joo''s body would be split in half. Kwon Taek Joo''s limbs seemed to freeze in an attempt to escape the cruelty pouring into his senses like a waterfall. The heat immediately spread to the back of my ears and neck and all over my back. Zhenya pressed harder on Kwon Taek Joo and licked his dry lips. "Cry, rabbit." -- Kwon Taek Joo laid on the bed staring at the ceiling. No matter how he accepted the outcome of the bet, there must be something in his head to be able to accept Zhenya''s dirty request so obediently. A belated regret came rushing out of him. This time it was almost consensual, clearly not rape. Kwon Taek Joo knew he could lose the bet. What Zhenya called a ''wish'' was obviously not going to be pure. However, determined to escape, he stuck his head into his pillow. It''s frustrating and embarrassing. It''s a shame that Kwon Taek Joo was so arrogant and in the end he was crushed by Zhenya. But that''s it. Kwon Taek Joo is no longer shocked and angry like before. Has he been hurt so much that having sex with Zhenya is no longer a problem? This may be a defense mechanism to maintain mental integrity. In fact, this was a common problem in all-male prisons or on ships on long voyages and in the military. Surely Kwon Taek Joo is used to this because he is stranded on a deserted island and is in a special situation where the only existence is the two of them together. Humans are inherently creatures that are strongly influenced by their environment. After all, having sex with Zhenya has no meaning at all so there was no need for him to add meaning to the meaningless act. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t need to try to rationalize it. He was clearing his troubled mind when a sound that Kwon Taek Joo could not recognize rang out. It''s a pretty familiar tune. It''s not a strong enough tone to immediately immerse yourself in it. It''s simple rather than flashy, and it''s quiet and gentle but has a heavy power. Kwon Taek Joo felt a deep sense of deja vu. When did he hear it? He recalled the memory and realized that the first time Kwon Taek Joo came into contact with a melody like this was also in this house. It seemed that what he thought was a dream was actually reality. Kwon Taek Joo raised himself up and listened. This is clearly a stringed instrument, but it does not appear to be a violin or cello. Is it a viola? Kwon Taek Joo got out of bed as if he was being pulled by something. It was dark. He pulled the blanket to cover his naked body and did not turn on the light but just moved his steps The show is continuing upstairs. Kwon Taek Joo swept his hand on the wall and then walked up the dark stairs, the melody becoming more vivid with each step he passed. The footsteps that seemed to be walking in a dream finally stopped. His vision widened in an instant. The moonlight through the large window shines onto the sound of the contrabass. The vibrations echoing from the huge body of the instrument touched his heart. The long white fingers played on the strings and the signature platinum blonde hair shone brighter than ever, but the expression of the person who was breaking the low chords suddenly looked extremely lonely. Kwon Taek Joo was so enchanted and immersed in the illusion created by the light that he forgot who was performing it. He leaned his heavy head against the wall and sat down. Kwon Taek Joo wasn''t too familiar with music, but he knew people rarely played contrabass solos. It is a musical instrument that is often optimized in ensembles to create harmony rather than performed alone. The stubbornness and slow melody emanating from that giant body looked so strong and masculine, except for a feeling of deep sadness creeping in somewhere. sea??h th§× N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes, immersing himself in emotions. A monster without emotions knows how to make such beautiful sounds?The melody is neither harsh nor intense, making the atmosphere ambiguous. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelids gradually became heavy, he gently fell into a comfortable sleep like on his mother''s back on a sunny spring day. The music stopped not long after but Kwon Taek Joo didn''t notice it at all. A huge shadow covered his head after Kwon Taek Joo fell asleep. Zhenya stretched out his long arm to brush Kwon Taek Joo''s hair. His face, which had always been stiff, was now relaxed. He looked down at that strange face for a long moment. Not long after, the loose bangs fell down to cover Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. Zhenya returns to perform with the contrabass. A low, gentle melody echoed in the space. Chapter 37 - 3.7 Contrabass Solo 7 Chapter 37: 3.7 Contrabass Solo 7"What''s over there?" Kwon Taek Joo asked while eating breakfast. Actually, it''s not a question out of curiosity. Zhenya was drinking coffee and turned his head to look at Kwon Taek Joo''s arm. He could see a few trees in the distance outside the window and beyond that was birch forest. Zhenya shrugged as if he didn''t care. Really hard. Kwon Taek Joo had to check the terrain of that place to find the optimal spot for skydiving. But Zhenya shows no signs of going out. If Kwon Taek Joo said he would walk alone, he would definitely be suspicious. There''s no other way. "There''s nothing to do, how about we go hunting together?" Zhenya raised his eyes again at the unexpected proposal and looked at Kwon Taek Joo. He constantly proactively suggesting to do this or that thing like this must be extremely strange to him. As if trying to guess what his real intentions were, Zhenya stared intently at Kwon Taek Joo. "If I don''t have a way to kill time. I''ll die of boredom." S§×arch* The ¦ÇovelFire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Only that is sincere. There wasn''t a single book in the house. There is no sound, let alone an internet-connected computer or TV. Moreover, the only conversation partner, Zhenya, spoke very little and Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have anything to share with that guy. One day feels like a year. No prison could be more desolate than that. Despite his best efforts, Zhenya did not show much interest. He is someone who likes to be alone, so how can he know the suffering of abandoned people? Kwon Taek Joo decided to change methods. To deal with an insolent animal, you must gently scratch its belly. "Tiger skins are everywhere in the house. Don''t tell me you caught them all." The compliment was a bit vague, but it was enough to make Zhenya''s chin quietly tilt up. Those words can be understood as compliments even though Kwon Taek Joo did not intend to say compliments. Zhenya tilted his head as if wanting him to say more. "How many are there? Why don''t you continue?" His chest opened up, his silent mouth drawing an arc. "Do you want my body to play with you that much?" What.? Kwon Taek Joo''s face immediately turned red at the cheeky voice. If Kwon Taek Joo really wanted to, all he had to do was lift himself up. "Is this also a bet?" Zhenya asked again before leaving the kitchen. Last night''s embarrassment suddenly came back to Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. He swallowed his tears and nodded. Instead of being angry, you will win. Even if Kwon Taek Joo cannot defeat Zhenya with strength, he is still very confident that he will not lose to him in accuracy and speed. -- Gunshots rang out across the quiet snowfield. The birds flew away in surprise. Even small animals quickly disappeared. Snow accumulated on tree branches then fell to the ground as if the sleeping forest suddenly woke up. Kwon Taek Joo ran through the forest. He was chasing a reindeer that was peeling and eating tree bark. That was also the first time he saw it in real life. Kwon Taek Joo knew that the reindeer''s size was huge, but he was still stunned by its 2m tall body. The reindeer galloped and kicked the ground with its long, strong legs in a risky way as if its giant horns were about to get caught in the branches. The forest has not been affected by human hands so it is still pristine, with only animal footprints across the snowfields. Trees naturally fall down and then grow back up on their own. If you carelessly place your foot on the wrong foot in a place like this, it is very easy to get injured by tripping over wooden cracks that have been buried under snow. It''s not easy to climb over a fallen tree, the wild forest seems wary of strangers and places traps everywhere. The reindeer disappeared among the dense forest and occasionally jumped up to show off its presence. Just when it seemed like it would soon be caught, it quickly got out of range. Those flickering movements made Kwon Taek Joo impatient. He recklessly ran after it for a while then suddenly bent one knee and sat down. it seemed faster to shoot it from afar than to continue the never-ending pursuit. With the gun pointed forward, Kwon Taek Joo held his breath and waited for the reindeer to jump again. He focused his attention on the target, the noise around him seemed to temporarily subside. Kwon Taek Joo narrowed his eyes and pulled the trigger halfway. The reindeer that had disappeared behind the tree suddenly appeared. Kwon Taek Joo without hesitation aimed at its head and pulled the trigger. The bullets returned with a bang, but the reindeer quickly changed direction and Kwon Taek Joo only hit one horn. "Damned." He sighed. Meanwhile, Zhenya overtook Kwon Taek Joo and chased the reindeer. Kwon Taek Joo was about to run after him when he suddenly stopped. Meanwhile, the distance between him and Zhenya became increasingly distant. He suddenly remembered the mission he had forgotten because he was engrossed in hunting. This was not simply to kill time, but he also had to learn about the terrain characteristics and wind direction of the forest to escape. But now it seems that is not necessary. The two of them were quite far away from the villa. Zhenya was excited about the hunt and was busy chasing the reindeer, leaving Kwon Taek Joo alone. In terms of distance, he is closer to the villa than he is. What will happen if Kwon Taek Joo comes back like this? If only he could return to the villa before Zhenya caught up with him and boarded his helicopter like that. What will happen if Kwon Taek Joo comes back like this? If only he could return to the villa before Zhenya caught up with him and boarded his helicopter like that. Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes wide and ran away even before he was sure. He desperately flailed his limbs while cutting through the rising wind as fast as he was running. Just the fact that Kwon Taek Joo turned his back on Zhenya was enough to make his vision waiver uneasily and his heart beat even faster, his legs felt like they would twist and fall at any moment. Kwon Taek Joo is now no different from a reindeer being chased. He ran away unconsciously. Kwon Taek Joo really didn''t think and just ran blindly. The back of his thighs and calves quickly ached, but he didn''t have time to stop. He must escape after failing once. Kwon Taek Joo must run farther, faster, before Zhenya could notice his absence. The next moment, a gunshot rang out in the distance. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly stopped in surprise. He turned to look, but Zhenya was nowhere to be seen. However, he was certain that the reindeer was killed by that shot. Kwon Taek Joo hesitantly took a step back, then gritted his teeth and ran away faster. Now the person who just finished hunting will notice your absence. Just imagining Zhenya coming to him was enough to send chills down Kwon Taek Joo''s spine. Soon a snowfield opened before him. It is both an entrance to the forest and an escape route. Kwon Taek Joo ran for a long time but he still had to cross that distance. The trees have protected his body until now, but now Kwon Taek Joo will have nowhere to hide. No matter how fast he ran, it was difficult to avoid the flying bullets, so he had to quickly get out of range. Just a little more. Just a little more. Kwon Taek Joo cheered himself non-stop. Suddenly a sign reached his ears. Maybe it was the sound of the wind, but it was different. Something was penetrating and damaging the dense birch trees. Is it a reindeer? No, it''s bigger and more agile than that. Kwon Taek Joo felt a deep sense of deja vu. It seems like a similar situation happened in the past. Immediately, the first day he arrived in Russia appeared in his mind, similar feelings when he wandered through dark alleys after being kidnapped by strangers. It''s that bastard. Kwon Taek Joo could clearly hear Zhenya''s collar rubbing against the bushes. It was even scarier than the previous gunfire. The trees swayed gently, warning of his approach. Damn it, he was quickly leaving the forest. The snow field reflected sunlight, making it impossible for Kwon Taek Joo to open his eyes. All he could hear with his ears was his own panting. His heart raced and nausea rose to his throat. Even when his feet sank into the snow. Kwon Taek Joo still ran like he was crawling on all fours. Even when he was in the special forces, Kwon Taek Joo did not run that hard in the special forces physical test, or even when chasing enemies or being chased back. Because your life is not threatened in those situations. But the situation is different now. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know how the days will pass if he continues to be detained by Zhenya. His whole body exerted superhuman strength like never before, stirring up the freezing air and trampling on the slippery snow surface. The back of his head kept tensing up, though. Kwon Taek Joo did not dare look back, the thick snow secretly hid the presence of the pursuer. His right foot accidentally stepped deeper than expected. causing him to stagger. In that moment, something passed over his shoulder and ear with an explosion. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body froze. If he had staggered a beat later, his ears would have blown off and his head would have exploded. "Next time I won''t miss it." A warning from someone running towards me. Zhenya must have run a considerable distance without stopping but his cold voice did not waver in the slightest. What should I do? Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t hear his footsteps so he couldn''t feel how far away he was. He couldn''t move in a hurry. The arm holding the shotgun tightened, sweat formed in his palm, his heart beat so fast it made him dizzy. Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t have the confidence to try anything, but there''s nothing more desperate than standing here waiting for him. Kwon Taek Joo tried to the end as if meeting a tiger on a deserted road. Ignoring Zhenya''s warning, he ran away again. It was a risky decision. His limbs instantly went numb, cold sweat poured from his pores, he gritted his teeth with desperation to become whatever he wanted to be. Soon, three or four gunshots rang out from behind. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly because he thought he was going to die. But he didn''t feel any pain for a while, Kwon Taek Joo ran with both feet again with eyes wide open. An unusual sound rang out somewhere while Kwon Taek Joo was still skeptical. Is it an illusion or the ground also seems to be shaking little by little. Some giant existence is turning around. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously stopped and turned his head towards the direction where the noise originated. He was immediately startled by the snow peaks lined up like partially separated screens sliding down the slope. It''s an avalanche. Kwon Taek Joo had to run away. His mind was filled with that idea but his legs didn''t move. He couldn''t even think of raising his arms and covering his eyes. Then a wave of white snow hit Kwon Taek Joo. The surrounding area was silent again after a period of commotion. All traces on the snowfield were completely erased. Zhenya walked over it. Bright red blood oozed from the neck of the reindeer that was draped over his shoulder. Drops of blood embroidered on the pure white snow field create a vivid color contrast. Zhenya nonchalantly passed the point where Kwon Taek Joo disappeared and then he stopped for a while in a quite far place. How long has he been waiting? Suddenly a hand poked out through the snow. That hand was clawing at the thick snow, desperate to survive. Zhenya stood watching for a moment then reached out his hand, and the desperate hand grabbed his. Zhenya pulled with force. Soon, Kwon Taek Joo, who was covered in snow, was pulled up onto the snowfield. "Ah Ha. Cough, cough." Kwon Taek Joo exhaled the breath that had been choking for a while and his whole body trembled. He felt nauseous because he inhaled too much. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and brushed the snow off his body. His head throbbed. This time he really almost died. "It Looks like I won again." Zhenya whispered while looking down at Kwon Taek Joo who was panting. His face suddenly stiffened. -- Kwon Taek Joo''s hand uncomfortably pushed his chin away and he fell onto the bed. Zhenya stopped moving and looked down at his grim face. There were dried tear stains on his wet eyes, deep wrinkles formed between his eyebrows, and even thick veins appeared on his forehead. Kwon Taek Joo''s dry lips opened helplessly and let out a shallow breath. He relaxed his hand on his neck. His chest, shiny with sweat. moved hard and slowly, and his normally grim face relaxed slightly. He slowly tilted his upper body towards Kwon Taek Joo. As he entered deeper, Kwon Taek Joo''s body twisted slightly. Chest to chest, shoulder to shoulder tightly. His body temperature and pulse could be clearly felt through the skin when touching each other. He quietly licked Kwon Taek Joo''s wet eyes and then used the tip of his tongue to trace her sharp eyelashes. Tastes salty. Then he gently licked Kwon Taek Joo''s lower lip. "Why is that?" No matter how many times he asked himself, he still didn''t know. It is nothing more than an interest in strange and difficult to grasp things. What if he did this? If he did it differently, what would happen? This is just an object of curiosity, he will not regret throwing it away when he runs out of inspiration. Kwon Taek Joo is not the only object he is interested in until now. As soon as the short-term interest fades, he will look for a new joy. In his relationships with women, he had never felt interested in the same person more than twice. The moment Kwon Taek Joo reappeared, he became an exception. As soon as he received the call that ''Anastasia'' had been blown away by his hands, Zhenya had goosebumps. An uncontrollable shiver erupted from his head and spread throughout his body. He laughed because he was thinking about hunting him down. He never lets go of his prey. He will chase it relentlessly and slowly suffocate it. The object he is interested in will be conquered by any means and will be eliminated without hesitation if it does not submit. That''s his way. However, Kwon Taek Joo is still alive and well. He was an existence that should have died three times over. Why is he so comfortable with him? If Kwon Taek Joo were to live. it would be a little troublesome but not unpleasant. Even though he constantly tries to escape, if he is caught he will be obedient for a while. He is quite pleasant in eating and knows how to say cheerful words. Kwon Taek Joo''s biggest advantage is that he is so tough that he won''t break even if he controls him to his liking. It was fun to hold him back even when he was fierce with pride. It''s nice to see a body that seemed like no needle could pierce it finally become limp. Is it like having a pet? That''s right, it''s not so different from raising an animal that''s not easy to tame. He only goes out when he can''t avoid it, comes home early and hangs around grocery stores he''s not interested in, it''s all part of it. The more you look at something, the more attached you will be to it. What''s new is that Zhenya has never raised anything before. He put aside what he was thinking and moved his waist where it had stopped. Kwon Taek Joo''s drooping body also swayed. A strong and sharp jawline, a prominent neckline, a straight collarbone with a busty chest underneath and abdominal muscles that vibrate with each breath. There wasn''t a single corner that wasn''t masculine. but for some reason, his mouth kept drooling. The deeper you penetrate, the more the thirst below increases. No matter how much he shook Kwon Taek Joo''s unconscious body, his anger still could not be released. He placed his knees under Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs and lifted him up and pulled him closer to the end of the bed. He stretched his body and pushed it into Kwon Taek Joo''s weak body. As he inserted deeper, his body felt like it was being crumpled. His penis was wrapped nicely and warmly inside, writhing violently. "Haa." Zhenya enjoyed the tightness and then let out a long breath, everything before his eyes seemed to spin for a moment. He rubbed hard where their bodies interlocked and dug deeper into it, Kwon Taek Joo groaned. He grabbed his arm, which was still reflexively waving chaotically, then he pressed his own huge, ferocious muscle mass into him mercilessly. Every time the swollen hole scratched his hot genitals, his blue eyes were engulfed in a fiery red. Unable to control his own excitement, he pressed his lips to Kwon Taek Joo''s face, ear, and chin. His mind was so chaotic that he couldn''t bear to do nothing. His body, which was so hard that it caused him pain, now became tight and mesmerizingly soft. He reveled in having expanded and having tamed a body that no one had ever touched before. He pushed his waist and devoured Kwon Taek Joo''s inner meat. Looking down at Kwon Taek Joo who was being stabbed by him, the corner of his mouth curled up. "It would have been a shame to have to kill him." Zhenya lit a cigar. The spicy scent spreads into the quiet space with each inhalation and exhalation. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly opened his eyes. His eyelids felt heavy as if a stone had been placed on them. His throat was dry and it hurts. Kwon Taek Joo screamed until he passed out so it''s not so surprising. He tried to stand up but his body refused to obey. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes and saw Zhenya sitting on the bed with his back turned. He tried calling him but no sound came out. "?" Zhenya , who was lighting a cigar, suddenly glanced back, because Kwon Taek Joo had patted him on the back. His hand swayed in the air as if he was longing for something. He looked intently at Kwon Taek Joo''s still moving hand and then handed over the half-smoked cigar. Kwon Taek Joo let out a shallow breath as if that wasn''t what he wanted when Zhenya hesitantly stuffed the cigar between his lips. Kwon Taek Joo was not satisfied, but he also did not throw away the cigar from his lips. He slowly raised his body while pressing the acupressure point on his throbbing head. Zhenya lit a new cigar. The bedroom was quickly filled with acrid cigarette smoke. A violent cough erupted from Kwon Taek Joo''s dry throat. I thought I was going to die last night. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t forget Zhenya''s face when he pulled him out of the snow. A cold face he had never seen. He could even feel the anger in the hand gripping the back of his neck. Was he angry because he was lied to? Kwon Taek Joo''s still throat suddenly ached. There was no feeling from the waist down, but he knew he was still alive. The ferocious beast that appeared all night seemed to be trying to tame another spoiled mountain beast. It was not a demonstration of coaching ability but an act of unilaterally trying to create rank and superiority. Zhenya''s rough and harsh gestures made Kwon Taek Joo realize the extent of his perception of people. It was clear that he considered people other than himself to be creatures to be subjugated. Kwon Taek Joo''s lower back hurt just because he turned a little. Can you get bruises during sex? Looking back at his body, there is no corner where Kwon Taek Joo is not determined enough to ask such a question. He groaned for a long time before sitting up straight, leaning his back against the headboard and letting out a sigh. "I saw a lot of slopes yesterday so it would be great to go skiing." Zhenya looked confused. Skiing looking pale and haggard like this? Right now, even walking on his own feet seems impossible. "It''s still worth living, right?" "It''s better than staying here and going crazy." "Prison is better than here." Kwon Taek Joo muttered. Once again, Zhenya''s eyes were still looking straight at him. The look in her eyes made it seem like Kwon Taek Joo''s dark inner thoughts would be exposed immediately. He quietly averted his eyes and took a deep breath of his cigar, Kwon Taek Joo even scolded the arrogant guy who never responded obediently. "Don''t pretend to be upset, kid. I''m enjoying myself too." "Did you do the best you could?" Zhenya laughed and provoked. The consecutive losses in the previous two bets were due to the impact of variables. This time will be different. It must be different. "Just show off. Looking at it like this, I still get dozens of business cards asking if I want to try becoming a skier." "Ah ha.?" Zhenya seemed to be completely in disbelief, he really always looked down on others. "This is a bet, understand?" Kwon Taek Joo seduced him again with his indifferent reaction. Zhenya let out a mischievous laugh. "Do you keep begging because you want me to have sex with you?" How did the other head come to such a disturbing conclusion? "Get your ass ready." Kwon Taek Joo growled and raised his middle finger. After successfully provoking, Zhenya appeared satisfied. The back of him going to get ski equipment looked quite happy. For some reason, his gait seemed lighter than usual and his shoulders seemed to move comfortably. It must be just an illusion. Chapter 38 - 3.8 Contrabass Solo 8 (18+) Chapter 38: 3.8 Contrabass Solo 8 (18+)Kwon Taek Joo rubbed his eyes and ran as hard as he could. The wide and short Siberian ski runs slide smoothly ev snow-covered fields. He rushed through the tall trees as if he was attacking it head-on. After a long slide, a feeling of suspense spread every time Kwon Taek Joo jumped up. His mind, burning with the desire to win, was relieved and he began to enjoy the joy of skiing. I don''t know how long it''s been since he''s been immersed in excitement like this. Two people glided along the mountainside, one in front and the other behind. The faster he accelerated, the more difficult it became for Kwon Taek Joo to breathe. A sharp pain rose from his chest but even that felt good. All toxins in the body seem to be eliminated just by breathing this clear air. Kwon Taek Joo also did not forget to grasp the surrounding terrain while skiing. He carefully considered which ridge to use so that he could achieve a strong thrust. It couldn''t be a hill that would collapse with just a few shotgun blasts like yesterday. It would be great if it was a high hill, but the most important thing is the wind, you have to have the wind pushing your back to fly far. Kwon Taek Joo continued to accelerate while flexibly dodging trees and rocks that were no different from obstacles. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen. He looked around for a moment to search for him and then quickly gave up. Not having him around was an advantage. Kwon Taek Joo carefully checked the areas he could take advantage of that he might have missed. Of course, if Kwon Taek Joo wins this bet, paragliding will be useless. He tried to endure any of Zhenya''s demands to win one day. Kwon Taek Joo had accepted everything so far so he wouldn''t be able to ignore his request. Just imagining Zhenya reluctantly handing back the helicopter keys made Kwon Taek Joo feel excited. This time he will definitely win. With that strong confidence. Kwon Taek Joo rykkede forward. Victory or defeat will end when either person reaches the predetermined point. Kwon Taek Joo dares to ensure his victory. He had never lost a ski bet, unless there were unreasonable variables, otherwise even a monster like Zhenya would have a hard time beating him. Kwon Taek Joo increased his speed and ran down the steep slope. Still no sign of Zhenya, he must have tripped on a rock and fainted. Now just turn the corner. Kwon Taek Joo used his stick to hit the snow hard and speed up. The thighs and calves that balance the body stiffen as if about to explode. But victory is right in front of your eyes, so it''s okay to be so painful. A satisfied smile spread across Kwon Taek Joo''s face. He''s won. Just as Kwon Taek Joo confidently turned the comer. something flew above his head. When Kwon Taek Joo accidentally raised his head, a dark shadow fell over his face. It''s Zhenya. "Ah." Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously exclaimed softly. The snowballs created by his dash were gradually increasing in size and rolling down. He had to avoid it but if he flinched even for a moment then Kwon Taek Joo would lose to Zhenya. He gritted his teeth and endured. A snowball suddenly fell on Kwon Taek Joo, turning him into a living snowman. Zhenya has landed safely and is accelerating forward. Kwon Taek Joo belatedly tried to chase, but the collision with the snowball caused his speed to decrease. Kwon Taek Joo could not close the gap. Zhenya smoothly turned into the rendezvous point and easily pulled out the pole planted there. Kwon Taek Joo arrived a little later. He ran and shook his head to brush off the snow, but his whole body was still covered in snow. Kwon Taek Joo angrily threw the stick like a polar bear fishing for salmon. That''s why Zhenya suddenly bursted out laughing. "Ahaha!" Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes widened in a daze. This was the first time he saw Zhenya smile so brightly. Is that why your heart is beating wildly? Kwon Taek Joo was so surprised. He gently rubbed his chest, which did not calm down easily. The snow all over Kwon Taek Joo''s body was melting and the coldness pulled him back to reality. He sat down on his skates and began to brush away the snow that was sticking deep into every corner. He shook his head to brush away the snow from his eyes and ears, but Zhenya came closer and continued with sarcasm. "Winning all the time is so boring" Kwon Taek Joo''s heart ached but he did not show it. It''s not like there''s no harvest at all. Even if he didn''t win the bet and didn''t win the helicopter, Kwon Taek Joo had completed the topographic survey, so he had achieved his next goal. I just can''t accept that he''s being arrogant again. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously reached out his hand to the unlucky bastard. It is a habitual action. A habit that Kwon Taek Joo previously only did with people who went skiing with him. He suddenly realized his mistake but Kwon Taek Joo did not withdraw his hand. Zhenya just blankly looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s outstretched hand. The hand reached out shyly. "Hey." he urged, then twitched his fingers. Zhenya looked at him like he was looking at a strange creature and then after a moment. He reached out his hand. No. Kwon Taek Joo thought so. The moment he tried to stand up by leaning on Zhenya, he fell backwards. As soon as Kwon Taek Joo fell, Zhenya''s body fell on top of him. He reflexively raised his hand, but Zhenya skillfully grabbed his arm and pressed it down. Soon, Zhenya''s face was placed within the distance of their noses touching each other. Zhenya quietly looked at Kwon Taek Joo. Facing each other so close made him able to see what was in his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo''s thick eyebrows, dark eyes, straight nose and rather thick lips are being slowly scanned one by one. Zhenya then lowered his head and pressed his lips to the corner of Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes and the inside of his neck. Perhaps because of the cold, his lips that gently touched and then parted were warmer than ever. The man kissed Kwon Taek Joo''s neck for a moment, then let go, then lowered his head a bit and bit the zipper of his jacket in his mouth. Zhenya then slowly pulled it down. Kwon Taek Joo''s bare skin was soon exposed. Zhenya leisurely moved her lips from Kwon Taek Joo''s neck to his collarbone and then to his chest. It was an unusually gentle touch. Kwon Taek Joo got goosebumps, not sure if it was because of the cold or because of that itchy action. "Is this the wish?" Kwon Taek Joo waited patiently and asked. Zhenya hesitantly raised his head. His face was blank as if he had just woken up from a dream. All childlike emotions in his eyes disappeared like a ghost. Zhenya seemed quite confused. "Ah, that''s right, the wish.." The man muttered and suddenly stood up. Kwon Taek Joo also quickly sat up and pulled back the zipper that had been pulled down to his navel. He brushed off the snow again. Zhenya stood with her back to him for a long moment. Kwon Taek Joo looked at where his gaze fell, but there was nothing outstanding there. Not long after, Zhenya said he would go ahead and crossed the snowfield alone. Kwon Taek Joo blankly watched the man leave and then struggled to stand up alone. He picked up the sliding stick that was lying around. Kwon Taek Joo was quite far away from Zhenya''s but he had absolutely no thought of running away. Even if he fled, Kwon Taek Joo was still on the island and he was not confident enough to deal with the consequences of being captured. Kwon Taek Joo rubbed his eyes and went straight home. He tilted his head to listen to his irregular heartbeat. Thump. Thump. Even if he took a deep breath and continued to stroke his chest, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t calm down. Are you about to die? Kwon Taek Joo really doesn''t know half of it. -- Kwon Taek Joo finished showering and went out. Zhenya was soon sitting in front of the fireplace. As soon as their eyes met, Kwon Taek Joo sighed and turned around. He unbuckled himself and took off his loose robe. The remaining underwear was also slowly pulled down. If there was anything to wish for. He would have done it yesterday so today Kwon Taek Joo hopes to end it quickly in one go. "What are you doing?" Kwon Taek Joo turned around at the sudden question with her underwear hanging between her thighs. Zhenya''s surprised expression was brazen. Isn''t it obvious that that would be his request? Kwon Taek Joo glared at him as if protesting. "I never said that was my wish." Kwon Taek Joo frowned, his face felt like it was about to explode. Every time he wins a bet, Zhenya only asks for one thing, Kwon Taek Joo undressed himself because hearing those words from him made him feel embarrassed every time, but now he really doesn''t understand. Kwon Taek Joo cursed and put his underwear back on. The man smiled and snapped his fingers, like calling a dog. When Kwon Taek Joo didn''t answer, he immediately stiffened his face. That bastard must have bipolar disorder. He approached Zhenya with a reluctant expression. He suddenly reached out towards Kwon Taek Joo. He hesitantly put his hand on top of the other hand. Zhenya used his thumb to rub the back of his hand and then he immediately pulled Kwon Taek Joo down in front of him. His knee hit the floor in unbearable pain. "Ugh, it hurts." "You can hit your knee as many times as you want, but using it there would be a waste." Zhenya grabbed the angry chin. Kwon Taek Joo tilted his head back and shook off his hand, but that effort only made his jaw clench tighter. He unzipped his pants and pulled his hateful penis out through that gap. The mass of flesh that wasn''t even erect yet swayed proudly in front of his huge body. Zhenya gently rubbed its head against Kwon Taek Joo''s lower jaw. Inauspicious. "Suck it." "No!" He grabbed the hair from the dodging head and rubbed his flesh against Kwon Taek Joo''s pursed lips. He gritted his teeth and held his lips tightly, but Zhenya pulled his head back. "Ah" just as Kwon Taek Joo let out an unpleasant groan, the thick piece of meat was stuffed into his mouth. Both of his cheeks were tense and his mouth was full. The penis presses against the mouth and then hits the tongue. Kwon Taek Joo will vomit. His upper body shuddered in horror, Zhenya gripped his struggling chin and silently looked down at his grimacing face. Kwon Taek Joo tried not to bite his genitals, causing his gaping jaw to begin to tire. The saliva he couldn''t swallow continued to pool in his mouth. The mass of meat was halfway to his throat, making Kwon Taek Joo''s breathing even more rapid. Every time he tried to take a deep breath, the rich smell of flesh came up. You better end this quickly. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly and held the penis in his mouth. That alone made Zhenya''s lower abdomen clench in satisfaction. The hand holding Kwon Taek Joo''s chin gradually relaxed as he slowly moved his head. sea??h th§× n?vel_Fire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This was the first time he sucked a man''s penis. It wasn''t originally what he wanted to do, but since it had already begun, Kwon Taek Joo also wanted to do it well so that the bastard would be obedient. but he didn''t know what to do. While Kwon Taek Joo was still confused, Zhenya grabbed his head and pulled him in. The red-hot column of flesh penetrated deep inside, the small hale in the column of meat continuously throbbed in anticipation. Kwon Taek Joo frowned dissatisfiedly and looked at Zhenya then opened his mouth again. Zhenya''s abdominal muscles visibly twitched as he bit and sucked on that hot skin. He tilted his head slightly and slowly looked down at Kwon Taek Joo. Soon something came out. It''s slippery and fishy. The genitals in the mouth also increase in size when rubbed against the soft mouth. Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth became fuller and his jaw opened wider, he didn''t know what to do next as the meat was too big to even hold. Zhenya inserted his finger into Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth and pressed down on his confused tongue before he thrust his erect penis. Kwon Taek Joo''s eves opened wide. The corners of his mouth stretched up because his meat was much larger than before it was erect. If Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth is torn right now. it would be understandable. He couldn''t believe that this weapon had penetrated his butt. The penis rubs on the tongue a few times and then is pushed all the way to the base and touches the throat. The hangover surged. "Ugh!" Kwon Taek Joo leaned back trying to escape the pain. Zhenya pressed his lower abdomen to his face, enjoying the sweet warm feeling from inside Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth. The image of Kwon Taek Joo bowing his head into his core evoked an unprecedented feeling of conquest. A dull heat spread to his spine. Zhenya couldn''t take it anymore. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s hair and pressed his back against her. The thick mass of meat is pushed in, sweeps onto the tongue, then immediately touches the throat and passes through it. Sometimes he turns around and pokes me on both cheeks. Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth helplessly before that violent thrust. He gasped for breath in his throat, his tongue rolling away like he was about to get a cramp. "Ha ah ug cough" Saliva ran down his chin. His genitals rushed in, causing his neck to swell, putting pressure on his airway. Kwon Taek Joo would die of suffocation. Angrily, he bit his teeth down on the mass of meat. A hard Colt touched Kwon Taek Joo''s temple. Zhenya looked down at him as if wanting him to try something. He observed Kwon Taek Joo''s reaction while gently pushing her back. He stared at him with disgust as if he was about to bite off his flesh. But instincts are still more inclined towards survival than self-respect. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo who had calmed down now and raised the corner of his mouth. From that moment on, he calmly trampled Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth. Zhenya rubbed the glans vigorously against the inside of the palate and then poked the inside of the cheek. Then he gently touched the skin on his face with his thumb. Soon the whole palate tingled. As if that wasn''t enough, Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulders and changed positions. The chair he was sitting in touched the back of his neck, both arms were still tightly held by him. Zhenya tied Kwon Taek Joo''s wrists and mercilessly pressed his penis inside. The two balls hit his lower jaw, Kwon Taek Joo''s neck and entire face turned red from the brutal compression that left him without even a chance to breathe. Zhenya''s thigh touched the side of Kwon Taek Joo''s face and began to convulse violently. His abdominal muscles were also extremely stimulated from the pleasure of running from head to toe, while Kwon Taek Joo just waited for the current pain to pass. Immediately afterwards, Zhenya''s lower abdomen pressed against his nose and was completely attached to his face. Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was about to suffocate because the strong smell of flesh made his breathing stop. The genitals in his mouth vibrated violently, and something thick splashed down his throat. "Ah ugh." Zhenya gritted his teeth, his composure completely disappearing from his excited face. A fishy smell along with mucus spread in his mouth. Kwon Taek Joo wanted to spit it out quickly, but his penis was still stuck firmly in his mouth as if not allowing it. Kwon Taek Joo tilted his head back and raised his back a little more, the semen suspended in his mouth then flowed down his throat. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes were filled with surprise, strength poured into his arms that were tightly held by Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo''s neck moved up and down to swallow the semen. Immediately after that, the genitals slid through the throat and out. At the same time as the breath was released, nausea struck him, Kwon Taek Joo collapsed and gasped for air. His trembling lips were wet with semen and saliva. Zhenya silently observed the scene and then extended his hand again. He lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s chin, his black eyes were puffy and wet with tears. Zhenya looked at him with wide, surprised eyes. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away to avoid his hand At that moment. There was a vibration somewhere. Zhenya''s eyes, which were looking at Kwon Taek Joo as if about to pierce his face, moved according to the vibration. A phone lying on the floor caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. Zhenya slowly stood up and picked up the phone. He didn''t pick up the phone right away but still hesitated to check the caller''s identity. Even when receiving the phone call, Zhenya did not greet him but just listened to what the other person was saying. He listened and looked back at Kwon Taek Joo. His face showed signs of disapproval, but Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know why or what the meaning was. -- Kwon Taek Joo followed Zhenya to the roof with an unhappy face, his mood was still uncomfortable because of last night''s events. Zhenya stood there staring at him instead of immediately climbing into the helicopter. He also didn''t say anything. For a long moment, there were only glances back and forth between the two. "Go quickly." At first it sounded like a greeting to wish him a good trip, but it was more like asking him to go away quickly. But Zhenya still looked at Kwon Taek Joo with a strange look. Actually, this wasn''t just once or twice. Sometimes he has strange expressions even with Kwon Taek Joo''s normal small words and actions. He frowned and asked, "What''s going on? and only then did he come to his senses. Zhenya climbed into the helicopter without saying anything. The engine started and the propeller began to rotate immediately afterwards. A strong wind seemed to shake Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body, blowing his hair and collar fluttering. He remained standing there until the helicopter took off overhead, then nonchalantly waved goodbye. The two of them wouldn''t see each other again soon, so he wondered if there would still be any difficulties. The bet with Zhenya that Kwon Taek Joo never wanted and felt shameful about will end here. Zhenya looked out the window for a long moment before slowly turning towards the sea. Kwon Taek Joo watched until the helicopter completely disappeared from sight and then descended from the roof. The place he immediately headed to was the basement, a place he hadn''t been able to set foot in for many days. When Kwon Taek Joo opened the door, the paraglider was still left on the floor. He was very worried that Zhenya would find out during the time he was here. Kwon Taek Joo immediately squatted down and finished sewing the unfinished part. The location for the paragliding launch has been chosen. The wind speed and direction he had just checked on the roof were also just right. Kwon Taek Joo will leave this place today. Chapter 39 - 3.9 Contrabass Solo 9 Chapter 39: 3.9 Contrabass Solo 9The Zhenya helicopter landed in a meadow near Moscow. The day was quite warm, although there was still a little snow left in places where the sun didn''t reach. The ground where the snow had begun to melt was covered with mud as if ready to cling to his clean shoes. Zhenya looked at his feet and immediately gave up trying to cross the mud. He decided to wait for the appointed person at a nearby stable. Dozens of horses were tied inside. Thanks to high-quality food and regular care, they all have shiny, shiny coats. When Zhenya appeared, the normally polite horses became visibly agitated. It is unknown whether it is because they are wary of strangers because of their sensitive temperament or because that visitor is Zhenya. As Zhenya slowly moved through the central aisle, nearby horses scratched their hooves against the floor in surprise while some raised their front legs in excitement. The innermost position is a horse with dark brown fur whose ransom alone is equivalent to a supercar. Zhenya held the fence with both hands and looked at it. It didn''t buck up like other horses but iust hesitated and backed away a bit. "Is this it?" Suddenly someone was approaching the entrance. It was his brother, Bazim, who summoned Zhenya to this place. Bazim calmed the aggressive horses and approached. His hands became more serious as he stroked the brown horse that Zhenya was observing. "It won''t eat anything, It''s been several days." It''s like worrying about an anorexic child. Since the listener was Zhenya, it didn''t seem like he was discussing or looking for advice on getting his favorite horse''s appetite back. It was just like a sigh. Normally Zhenya wouldn''t care but for some reason today he suddenly came up with a solution. "Because it always eats delicious food, it is full. You let it eat things it doesn''t like and then occasionally throw something it likes, it will be obedient and run after you." It''s absurd. He gave advice to a horse lover when he himself had never even raised a blade of grass. And that method is not breeding but abuse. "Are you raising tigers?" "Well, it''s the same." Another vague answer. Zhenya smiled strangely as if thinking about something. Bazim didn''t know what he was doing or where he was. He asked again. "Where have you been living lately? I heard you don''t even go to headquarters." "That''s not what I''m really curious about." He avoided the answer and smirked, his eyes curling up as if mocking. Bazim looked towards the entrance for a moment and sighed. He opened his mouth again, his voice low. "What did you do to him? Don''t tell me you took care of him yourself?" "Let''s see." "In that case, bring the body here." Bazim added. In fact, that seemed to be the real purpose of summoning Zhenya to this place. "Can we announce Anastasia now?" One person or another is just because of Anastasia. Zhenya burst out laughing as if what he said was silly. "Suddenly you told me to give up my life?" "I''m asking you to give it to me. There are rumors that the Americans have obtained the blueprints of ''Anastasia'', I don''t know if it''s true, but of course the Kremlin is very worried. And because you''re still keeping the name He was a Korean spy, so I lost face. The senators also agreed that we should punish him as an example. The president also wants to reaffirm your loyalty. This may be generosity. The end of the Kremlin." Zhenya smirked at the warnings that threatened his life. Then with a smile on his face, he took a step closer to Bazim. He blinked nervously even though he was his blood relative. "Go and tell them. Don''t pay any attention to the Korean spy or ''Anastasia''. If you continue to covet my things, I''ll throw Anastasia'' into the Kremlin." The smile disappeared from Zhenya''s face. He wrinkled his nose threateningly and walked past Bazim. "Yevgeny!" He was harshly called Zhenya. He walked away without looking back, Left alone, Bazim angrily kicked the fence. -- Before returning to the island, Zhenya stopped at a shopping district. There are many things you need to prepare for your stay on the island in the near future. He intended to buy daily necessities and medicine and then turn back, but a grocery store suddenly caught his eye. A picture of a Korean flag is drawn on the sign. This was an area Zhenya often frequented when he needed to buy sundries, but for the first time he knew that such a store existed. The unpleasant smell wafting throughout the store made his forehead naturally wrinkle. Zhenya stood there for a long time without going in or leaving. The shop owner saw him and ran out. "Please come in. What do you need?" The shop owner who was greeting me kindly was an Asian. Zhenya glanced at the products displayed behind her, they were full of things that he couldn''t tell what they were. Finally Zhenya pointed to the familiar wrapping paper. The shop owner quickly understood and brought out the ramen in the box. "Do you need anything else?" Zhenya shook his head as he accepted the box. He was about to pay, but the store owner took advantage of that moment to introduce other products. "This is a product that was just imported from Korea and everyone''s reaction is very good. I sold it all just yesterday and now only have this left. If you are interested in Korean food, buy a bag. Come back. It''s very delicious." She emphasized by pronouncing the word ''very'' long. Zhenya''s eyes, which were glued to the wallet, suddenly shifted to it. Doubt was evident on his face. The shop owner quickly picked up a bag for him to take a closer look at. A wrinkle formed between Zhenya''s eyebrows at the offensive smell of it. "Are Koreans crazy about this?" "What? Ah, of course! Koreans can''t eat rice without this. There seems to be a whole song related to this. Living abroad, everyone wants to eat this dish so much that I really miss home. How about I get you a bag?" She asked while packing half of the things into her bag. Zhenya reluctantly nodded. -- "What are you doing up there?" Zhenya looked up at the tall birch tree with a silly expression where Kwon Taek Joo was hanging from a branch. On the way back by helicopter, he saw a dark parachute fluttering. Zhenya came to check and found it like this. Kwon Taek Joo remained silent and did not answer. Zhenya looked at the knife sticking straight into the ground right below his feet. It was flapping helplessly every time the wind blew. His rudimentary paraglider became entangled in a tree, and Kwon Taek Joo must have dropped the knife while trying to escape by cutting the leather. Seeing through the entire situation, Zhenya smiled. Kwon Taek Joo impatiently shouted not to laugh, but in a situation like this, he couldn''t threaten him. "Don''t move." Zhenya took a knife out of his pocket and warned. Kwon Taek Joo grasped his intention after a while, then Zhenya without hesitation threw a knife at him. The blade quickly flew around Kwon Taek Joo''s head and cut the puppet string. He fell freely and hit his butt violently on the ground. If the accumulated snow wasn''t as thick as a mattress, somewhere on his body would have broken. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t believe that Zhenya was just staring at a falling person. After all, it will be a long time before he becomes human. He groaned and stood up. Zhenya immediately grabbed the parachute and dragged him away. The boy didn''t ask anything but just told Kwon Taek Joo why he failed. "If you want to grasp the wind direction of this place, it will take at least 20 years." Kwon Taek Joo thought he had fully grasped the island''s terrain and wind direction for a few days, but all of that seemed to be temporary. He successfully slid down the snow and glided powerfully, but he was helplessly swept away by a sudden strong wind. It was like that for half a day. As soon as he returned to the villa, Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even take off her clothes but sat down right in front of the fireplace. His whole body trembled from the cold wind all day. as if the wind had penetrated his bones. I didn''t expect he could be so unlucky. Even if the sky resents you? Zhenya went straight to the kitchen to cook ramen but after a while he turned back to look curiously. Kwon Taek Joo should have smelled the scent and appeared, but he was still nowhere to be seen. He must have had a cold combined with disappointment, so his appetite also disappeared. Zhenya reduced the heat on the stove and approached Kwon Taek Joo. "Don''t you want to eat ramen?" "I don''t want to eat." Kwon Taek Joo refused without any hesitation. He struggled with just one ramen dish, but he wasn''t that crazy about ramen. Right now, his stomach is bloated, his limbs are weak and Kwon Taek Joo just wants to lie down and rest. Zhenya didn''t ask any more questions but just shrugged and returned to the kitchen. "Then I guess I''ll have to get rid of this stinky thing." What is that stinky thing? Kwon Taek Joo slowly turned his head. Just then, he saw Zhenya''s thumb and index finger holding a red bag. Kwon Taek Joo doubted his eyes for a moment. He rubbed his eyes. The shape of what was about to be thrown into the trash became clearer. Kwon Taek Joo ran to Zhenya in an instant. He caught the bag of kimchi on its way to the trash. He didn''t even know where that speed came from when just a moment ago Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have the strength to lift a finger. He took out an empty bowl and carefully put kimchi in it. Then, Kwon Taek Joo added it to newly cooked ramen noodles and ate it. People say that if you eat kimchi, you will feel less homesick, those words are certainly not meaningless. There are definitely drugs in it. Kwon Taek Joo looked satisfied after quickly eating all the ramen. He rubbed his belly then leaned back in his chair and met Zhenya''s eyes. Suddenly he felt embarrassed even though he hadn''t done anything wrong, he coughed and looked away Zhenya smiled faintly. "You really are interesting." "Please get fed up with me, please." Kwon Taek Joo responded as if begging. Zhenya didn''t pay attention and just stared at Kwon Taek Joo. He missed the time to stand up because his gaze was too intense. There''s nothing special to say, so if you just sit still like this, you''ll feel even more embarrassed. Kwon Taek Joo asked seriously. "Have you eaten yet?" That means he should stop sitting here and do what needs to be done. Is your expression strange? Zhenya''s smiling face suddenly turned bewildered. He didn''t seem uncomfortable, instead he had a strange expression. Just as Kwon Taek Joo tried to get his attention by saying "Hey!". Zhenya suddenly said strange words.

Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know what he was talking about. He was frowning in confusion when Zhenya turned away and left the kitchen. "What''s this crazy bastard talking about?" Kwon Taek Joo scratched his neck in confusion. Zhenya did not appear in the bedroom until later that night. Thanks to that, Kwon Taek Joo can sleep comfortably on a spacious bed. It seemed like there was a contrabass sound echoing in his faint consciousness. The flowing melody is still as quiet and peaceful as before, but somewhere there is a hint of sadness. Chapter 40 - 3.10 Lonely Koshichei Chapter 40: 3.10 Lonely KoshicheiBazim is the president''s political partner in both name and reality. The two enjoy riding together once a week. On the way back from horse racing as if they were competing, the two often had normal conversations like this and that. From general government affairs to popular rumors in society, to extremely personal stories. Today is no different. "Okay, so what are you going to do about that troublemaker?" The president often calls Zhenya a ''troublemaker''. The implied question was not simply asking about his situation. Not long ago, Bazim received instructions to hand over Anastasia to the government. It was for that reason that he urgently summoned Zhenya. Bazim silently swallowed his dry saliva. He couldn''t convey his young brother''s answer to the president, who was secretly expecting it. "I still haven''t received an answer." Bazim gave a disappointing answer. The president''s face did not harden, but the coldness of the ruler could be seen in his calm eyes looking into the distance. "I''ve been following him all this time because he''s related to you and because of the trust that the Bogdanov family and the Kremlin have built, but I can''t continue anymore. If in the end that troublemaker doesn''t give Anastasia I have no choice. I have no choice but to sacrifice a cow for a great cause." Bazim just listened silently. Even if Zhenya was his younger brother, it would be difficult for him to oppose the government. "I heard that he often visits that private land recently?" "Are you talking about Ajinoki Island?" "I don''t know the name, but I heard that it is an uninhabited island" "Yes, It''s the island his father gave him for his 10th birthday. It''s on the coast of the Arctic Ocean and no one can reach it without using a helicopter. Zhenya has always been there and never goes out. He hates being bothered." "Even so, traveling back and forth so often isn''t easy. Don''t you think so?" "I don''t know, but it seems like he''s raising some kind of animal. That guy who''s as dry as a cactus recently even taught me how to tame animals. No matter how busy work is, it''s impossible." I''m starving my pets so I have to feed them sometimes, right?" "No, it''s not like that." "What?" "How could that troublemaker be interested in something like that? Not at all. On the contrary, I don''t know if he''s interested in new metal accessories or not. For example, ''The Second Anastasia'' for example." "Anastasia. I don''t even know how far the development has progressed because Zhenya never mentioned it. But if ''Anastasia'' is finished then there''s only one place to hide it. That''s the island. Remote islands visited by Zhenya in all four seasons." "I''ll have to come look for you when the homeowner leaves." The next words were like a declaration of war. Bazim soon realized these were not empty words. The FSB director and the defense minister had been called by the president and were waiting for them in front of the stables. -- "Do what?" He asked again as if he heard wrong. Rock, paper, scissors, Kwon Taek Joo happily repeated. The chessboard and the pieces scattered on the table were pushed aside. How silly, Zhenya burst out laughing. After spending some time burying himself in the warehouse, Kwon Taek Joo found a chess board and as soon as he lost, he immediately proposed another entertainment. It''s ''rock, paper, scissors. "This time it''s a one-shot match. Either you win or you lose." Kwon Taek Joo gently held and shook his fist while agitating Zhenya who was not moving at all. He rolled his eyes and shouted to quickly prepare. Zhenya shook his head and reluctantly raised his hand. Kwon Taek Joo quickly shouted ''rock, paper, scissors''. A voice like a powerful scream rang out. Both of them made fists. After confirming the draw, Kwon Taek Joo let out the breath he had been holding. He had exerted so much force that his arms were tingling. Catching the bored Zhenya off guard, he quickly shouted the slogan again. "Once again, rock, paper, scissors!" Sear?h the N??elFir§×.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This time, fist and fist met again. Kwon Taek Joo stood up after drawing once again. He turned back and took a deep breath. Winning or losing depends entirely on luck and you are wasting more energy than necessary. Zhenya watched Kwon Taek Joo bite his lips and rub his hands together. Right after that, Kwon Taek Joo returned. "Rock, paper, scissors!" He closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look. Zhenya could only indifferently watch the results unfold before his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo let out a long breath and slightly raised his eyelids. His eyes alternately looked at the two hands facing each other extremely cautiously. Zhenya has never changed hands from the beginning until now. And Kwon Taek Joo''s hand is outstretched. Did I win? Really? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t believe it even when he looked closely. He pinched himself and winced in pain. "I won!" He clenched his hands in joy. Zhenya also laughed when he saw him happy as if he had the world after winning just one round of rock, paper, scissors. "Okay, what''s your wish?" "I need to leave this island." Kwon Taek Joo answered without hesitation. He thought he would be a bit surprised, but Zhenya calmly nodded unexpectedly. "Are there any other conditions?" "Alone, standing on 2 legs." "And?" Why does he suddenly feel like he''s rolling out the carpet for you? Kwon Taek Joo was skeptical but he still did not hesitate to read the necessary items. What if you''re a little brazen? "I need a change of clothes, a passport, a Colt... and also some cash." Zhenya bowed his head as if he would listen to anything. It went so smoothly that Kwon Taek Joo was a little worried. He set a limit. "Instead, you can only go while it''s still light." "What are you planning?" "You lost the chess game, so even if you go, you have to pay up." Zhenya threw something at Kwon Taek Joo when he still looked at him with suspicious eyes. He caught it and realized it was the helicopter key. Everything became confused. Kwon Taek Joo could escape so easily, why did he have to go through so much trouble? The futile efforts and endeavors of the past flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope. It''s all quite unrealistic but it''s good that what he wanted was met. Kwon Taek Joo thought about the prospect of returning home safely and lay down on the bed in his room. But the ecstasy didn''t last long, because Zhenya suddenly stood up and quickly approached him. "What''s up?" He took a wary step back. Zhenya did not respond and gradually closed the distance. Kwon Taek Joo was hesitantly backing away when he suddenly tripped over the bed and fell down. Zhenya naturally climbed onto his fallen body. Kwon Taek Joo was about to protest, but the hand that was trying to push him away was easily grabbed. "I''ll let you go when it''s still light." Along with that sly whisper, Kwon Taek Joo''s shirt was immediately removed on both sides. The buttons popped out violently. Zhenya pressed his lips to his exposed neck and took off his pants in one go. Kwon Taek Joo''s body immediately became naked and covered with traces of previous lovemaking. There was no place left to carve another kiss mark, but Zhenya stubbornly bit into the mottled skin and pulled down the remaining underwear as if wanting to tear it apart. He straightened his knees then grabbed and lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s legs for closer contact. "Ah!" The focus quickly shifted to his head and shoulders, blood rushed to Kwon Taek Joo''s face, which turned red, his eyes closed tightly. As he struggled in an uncomfortable position, Zhenya pulled Kwon Taek Joo''s legs towards his shoulder. The back of his thighs touched Zhenya''s chest and his body was completely folded in half. He put his hands on the bed and pressed his lower abdomen against Kwon Taek Joo''s exposed buttocks. The erect penis rubbed against his ass. Kwon Taek Joo clutched the bed sheet tightly in front of the disaster that was happening right in front of him. Zhenya licked Kwon Taek Joo''s calves while pulling his waist back. The wet glans rubbed gently against the soft hole. The surrounding wrinkles were quickly moistened, then he pressed his waist and slowly penetrated Kwon Taek Joo. "Ahh!" A groan of pain came from his clenched teeth. The two of them did a lot last night but the inside was still too cramped to receive the huge mass of meat. Zhenya did not take his eves off Kwon Taek Joo''s face even when he was frowning as if in pain. Then he leaned down further and licked his eyelashes that were trembling in pain. The kiss gently glided across her face like a lover, but the flesh column kept digging holes like a tyrant. The hole, which had been loosened by the repeated lovemaking sessions, kept opening up. The skin and flesh are entwined together. Each time Zhenya pushed in, his weight and pressure increased. Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach felt like there was a hole in it. "Ah, wait!" He unconsciously grabbed Zhenya''s arm, his pleading tone made him stop for a moment and look at him. He had no intention of asking him gently. Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth and then closed it tightly. He turned his head to the side. Zhenya used the tip of his tongue to draw on his ears, then suddenly pushed the tip of his tongue into his ear and continued to push the belt where it had stopped. Intense friction sounds came from the thighs and buttocks being rubbed. Saliva-soaked ears devoured those naked sounds. Kwon Taek Joo''s insides had been stimulated all night, so even a light brush caused scratches. He aimed at Kwon Taek Joo''s weak point and stabbed it violently. His toes curled at every contact, his vision blurred and turned white. "Ah, ah, ha!" Crazy moans came out. Zhenya was pushed to the limit, continuously pounding inside. Then he tilted his head while rubbing his groin against Kwon Taek Joo''s butt and placed his face right on Kwon Taek Joo''s face. "Ahh" "If you can go out, please do so." The corner of his mouth curled up. Kwon Taek Joo has an unfortunate feeling that this night will be very long. -- Zhenya didn''t let go of Kwon Taek Joo until dawn. Every time he woke up after passing out for a while, he would always stab him in the butt. Zhenya massaged Kwon Taek Joo''s penis, causing him to ejaculate multiple times. After four or five times like that, he no longer had enough strength to lift even one arm. Kwon Taek Joo goes limp and realizes Zhenya is a fraud. His throat only let out moans and gasps that sounded like metal hitting metal. After a long time, Kwon Taek Joo woke up. He could barely lift his eyelids as if they were pressed down with a rock. The dizziness made his vision shake. He closed his eyes and opened them again, but it was still the same. "Ugh." Kwon Taek Joo rose up little by little. There was absolutely no feeling from the waist down and he had no strength left in his legs, as if the lower half of his body had been paralyzed. He propped himself up on his elbows and looked around. At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind: to quickly leave. Kwon Taek Joo urgently searched for the helicopter''s key. The key lying quietly on the bedside table soon entered his field of vision. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally reached out and hugged his waist, groaning, cold sweat running down his spine. "Why are you leaving? The sun is about to set." Suddenly Zhenya''s voice rang out. Kwon Taek Joo quickly turned around. He was sitting leisurely on the chair behind him, leisurely tilting his glass of wine while observing the suffering of others. Kwon Taek Joo should have realized when he accepted the rock-paper-scissors result. Zhenya is not the type to easily release the prey he caught in the first place, it could just be that he got bored playing with it or his prey was destroyed first. However, this was also an opportunity that Kwon Taek Joo had, so he did not want to give up. I will confidently leave while looking at him. Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and tightened his grip. His arms trembled trying to support his body as if it could break in an instant. The muscles that ached all night just twisted a little and caused severe pain. Almost crawling out of bed, Kwon Taek Joo reached out and grabbed the helicopter key on the table, then lost his balance and fell to the floor. "Ah." Shock spread throughout the body. An indescribable feeling of pain rose from inside the buttocks as if something serious had happened there. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his back again and waited for the pain to subside. Not only his face but his whole body was quickly drenched in sweat. Kwon Taek Joo glared at Zhenya with heavy breathing, then grabbed the bed and stood up. His knees were shaking. As soon as he took a step, the semen accumulated in her abdomen spilled out onto her thighs and flowed down. The thighs covered with bodily fluids became shiny again. Kwon Taek Joo tightly closed his mouth to endure that terrible feeling. He placed his hand on the wall and moved step by step. He couldn''t blame why the house was so large. Kwon Taek Joo also doesn''t have time to shower. With the current situation. There is not much time left to go to the rooftop. With great difficulty he reached the front of the stairs. He was in a hurry, but as soon as he took the first step, he fell to his knees. Kwon Taek Joo was so exhausted that he couldn''t even groan. He clung to the railing to hold his breath, his chest and shoulders heaving with difficulty. Zhenya followed and crossed his arms to observe before he realized it. Even though Kwon Taek Joo tried to stand and hold on to the railing, his knees still buckled. "It''s less than 30 minutes until sunset." How kind. But Kwon Taek Joo no longer had the energy to talk so he just ignored him. He decided to change his method because his legs kept shaking. Would it be better to crawl with both arms? As expected, it''s much easier. Kwon Taek Joo''s elbow was injured due to rubbing, but at least he didn''t bend his knees or fall halfway. Zhenya continued to follow Kwon Taek Joo, his shadow from behind inciting even more anxiety. Kwon Taek Joo adjusted his breathing as he walked up the stairs to the second floor. His lungs were compressed and he was panting, his head still dizzy. The fragmented vision could not grasp even the key in his hand. Kwon Taek Joo has never had body aches before, but this time he seemed to have a serious problem. "Ha ha." He shook his head angrily and climbed the stairs again. Every time the body moved, moans echoed out. Finally, his eyes were spinning. Kwon Taek Joo wanted to climb to the rooftop but the sun had already begun to set. The red sunset fell on my sweaty body, He really doesn''t have much time left. Zhenya silently looked at Kwon Taek Joo who was desperately trying to escape from him. If it was normal, he would happily watch but for some reason his face turned stiff. Kwon Taek Joo managed to reach the rooftop door. He felt the cool air outside from the iron door his hand touched. Arrived. His distorted face relaxed, Kwon Taek Joo quickly reached out and turned the doorknob. But Zhenya was one step faster. He looked at him holding the door handle and wondered what he was doing? That''s because it''s getting dark outside the window. "Time''s up, Rabbit." Chapter 41 - 3.11 Lonely Koshichei 2 Chapter 41: 3.11 Lonely Koshichei 2Zhenya was busy preparing to go out early in the morning. Kwon Taek Joo slept like the dead all day and just lay in bed without any energy left. He put on his fur coat and was about to leave when he suddenly turned back to look at him. "It will take about two days." Zhenya suddenly reported his schedule. Since when did he say those things to Kwon Taek Joo? He just turned over without reacting. A moment later there was the sound of a propeller spinning. The noise echoed from above and then gradually disappeared. Once again, Zhenya left and only Kwon Taek Joo was left alone on the island. How long will he have to repeat this boring life? So boring. Kwon Taek Joo is not used to killing time but he also has nothing to do. He seemed to be becoming a useless piece of meat day by day, for the first time in his life he felt helpless like this. What will happen if Kwon Taek Joo continues to be left in a place where there is snow on all four sides? You will go crazy. If he hadn''t committed suicide before, he might have been lucky. Each day passes and the sense of time and reality fades away. Kwon Taek Joo wants to get out of here before his mind becomes strange. His heart became more and more desperate, but the path to fulfill that wish was too far away. Kwon Taek Joo nervously pulled the blanket up to his head. -- He left the villa late in the afternoon to get some fresh air. He kept walking without a destination until the blue sea appeared before his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo chose a relatively dry rock, sat down and quietly looked at the distant horizon. He seemed to fall into a completely different world with no way of knowing what was happening outside or how things were going. He could never imagine that Kwon Taek Joo himself would live such a desolate and jobless life. He sighed and stood up. Kwon Taek Joo decided to take a walk on the white sand beach to relieve his still stiff body. The sea breeze brought harsh cold but was quite familiar to him. After walking for a while. Kwon Taek Joo saw a tree branch swaying on the ocean waves. He quickly picked it up because it was a disposable chopstick. Where does it come from? Is it China? Could also be Korea. It seems that his mental condition is worse than what Kwon Taek Joo thought. He used his chopsticks to scribble large letters on the sand. By the way, Kwon Taek Joo picked up seashells and pebbles around, and placed them on top. The complete script is an ''SOS'' distress signal. If you''re lucky, ships or planes passing nearby will see it. If not, then that''s it. Kwon Taek Joo lay down on the ground as soon as he finished. The thick layer of snow covered him like a blanket. He closed his eyes, only the sound of waves and wind remained in endless silence, as if even if he disappeared into nothingness, nothing would change. His consciousness gradually sank into the immense abyss. How long has it been? A sudden sound rang in Kwon Taek Joo''s ears. Is it because your ears are ringing because you want that to happen so much? Kwon Taek Joo jumped up. He couldn''t help but panic and suddenly looked everywhere. A helicopter approaching from afar fell into his sight. It''s not the same as Zhenya''s. Could it be that they saw his distress signal? With that thought, Kwon Taek Joo desperately waved both hands. "Here! Look here!" He even jumped up and down on the spot, but the helicopter just passed by without seeing Kwon Taek Joo. He couldn''t give up like that so he ran to the villa. If he waved with his shirt from a higher place, they would definitely notice. In an instant, Kwon Taek Joo climbed onto the roof and waved with his shirt. He yelled as loud as he could trying to get attention. The helicopter made a big turn and approached the villa. Joy spread across Kwon Taek Joo''s face. He stepped aside to let the helicopter land safely. It crashed down on the roof with a strong wind, the roaring fan blades slowly stopped. Only then can Kwon Taek Joo open his eyes. He quickly ran closer to the helicopter. The door opened and a man in a black suit appeared. While he stretched out his arms to block Kwon Taek Joo''s approach, a young girl followed behind. "What is it, this?" It was a somewhat disappointing reaction. The woman then continued to carefully walk around Kwon Taek Joo and observe him little by little. "Oh. I thought it had to be better since he hid it and said he was the only one who could see it.'' Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know what he''s talking about. Who the hell is this woman anyway? She looks much younger than Kwon Taek Joo. The facial features are exceptionally clear and appear to be both who they are and who they are not. She was beautiful but quite pale, maybe he was tired after a long flight. Kwon Taek Joo stood with his arms crossed in front of the woman who was looking at him as if evaluating him. The woman also stopped walking and returned his gaze. The eyes are very bold. "Who are you?" She rolled her eyes and smiled even with that disapproving tone. She even reached out her hand without hesitation. "Nice to meet you. I''m Olga." Olga. Where did you hear it? Kwon Taek Joo felt a strange sense of deja vu. The face is strange but her name is quite familiar. Olga added a few words and resolved all of Kwon Taek Joo''s doubts. That''s also the reason he came to this place. "Olga Vissarionovna Bogdanov." -- Kwon Taek Joo and Olga sat facing each other for a long time. He invited her down for tea, but neither of them could drink a sip of water. Olga sat on the chair that Kwon Taek Joo gave her and stared at him as if he was about to pierce him. She is even shameless as to assert he is Zhenya''s sister. Kwon Taek Joo sat with his arms crossed in front of that attentive gaze. Nothing is known about Vissarion''s illustrious daughter, Olga. Not only photos, Kwon Taek Joo also doesn''t know when he was born, what school he went to, or where he did what he did. He didn''t know if he was different from her brothers just because he was a woman. "That person, what is it that you like so much?" Olga was the first to speak, her tone quite blunt. It was so difficult to grasp her intentions that Kwon Taek Joo doubted whether he had heard correctly. Waiting for a while without an answer, Olga shrugged and added. "I don''t understand at all. Up until now I haven''t seen anyone who wants to be with that person." ''That person'' must be someone known to both Olga and Kwon Taek Joo. There was only one name he could immediately think of, but the question was a bit strange. "What is it that you like so much?" It seems like he thought that Kwon Taek Joo herself liked him so he voluntarily got attached to him. "You misunderstood. It''s not like that." "Misunderstanding?" "It''s not like I''m stuck in a place like this because I like it." "So what?" Kwon Taek Joo intended to answer immediately, but then closed his mouth. He didn''t know where to start or how to explain. There was no reason for him to reveal his situation to someone he had never met. No matter what, he is also an accomplice of that guy. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head as if he didn''t want to speak. Even so, Olga made her own guess and then exclaimed in surprise. "Were you kidnapped!?" "Huh?" Kwon Taek Joo was speechless. That''s not an incorrect guess either. Although it was a bit ambiguous to say that he was really kidnapped, Olga took Kwon Taek Joo''s silence as a confirmation and couldn''t help but sigh. She muttered, "That crazy guy is really..." Olga''s eyes, which were wary of Kwon Taek Joo, suddenly softened. She held Kwon Taek Joo''s hand and apologized for her rudeness. "I was rude. I thought you had your eye on that person. That person ran away with a terrorist who blew up the house so I thought it was like sleeping with the enemy. Anyway, sorry for the misunderstanding. I can''t believe an idiot fell in love with that person. I didn''t know anything and came all the way here" The last sentence is almost a monologue. It seems like Olga came here to see the monkey in the zoo. According to her words, he came here to find ''the idiot who ran away in love with Zhenya''. How silly. "So why did you come here?" "I came here to recover." Then Olga changed the subject while ignoring Kwon Taek Joo''s objections with her eyes. "But are you going to use those stupid signals like before and continue waiting to be rescued?" Are all people who have never paid attention to others since birth like that? There''s really no way to talk to that bastard or his sister. "Who knows? Maybe someone will come to save the poor idiot." "Um, I''m not saving you''re an idiot." "Thank you for your comfort." "By the way, what''s your name? I don''t even know your name." "Don''t be curious. Because I can''t tell you." "How can you say that? Can''t you tell me? How am I not curious?" "If it''s not possible then it''s not possible. I don''t want to get into trouble." Sear?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo persisted while Olga pursed her lips in protest. He didn''t blow up the Bogdanov mansion for no reason, and because he was on a job he wasn''t allowed to reveal his identity. Olga quickly changed her question. "So what did that person call you?" "That.." Kwon Taek Joo was about to answer but then fell silent. He couldn''t bring himself to say the name ''Rabbit''. He doesn''t know if it was because he wanted to embarrass him even more, Zhenya kept using this name. It was like that from the beginning with words like "Dig a hole and hide well". And "Prick up your ears"... Olga showed her utmost concern with shining eyes. Her upper body tilted towards Kwon Taek Joo. "If you can''t help, don''t ask too much." "I can''t help you. If I get caught, I will be scolded." Somehow, "being scolded" here doesn''t seem to be the usual category of an older person advising a younger person. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t think that violent guy would let it go just because he was a woman, but he also never saw him treat women badly. That''s it. If Olga can''t help Kwon Taek Joo, then there''s no use continuing to talk. He left the kitchen with a sad look on his face. Olga followed. "Which room can I use?" "If it''s just the bedroom, there''s still a spare room so you can use any room." "Well, is that room nice?" Olga walked past Kwon Taek Joo, through the living room with the fireplace, and into the innermost bedroom. Kwon Taek Joo looked bewildered and then suddenly jumped up. In an instant, he caught up with Olga and blocked her path. Olga looked at him suspiciously. "Huh? What''s wrong?" "This room is taken." Kwon Taek Joo has no other valid reason. Olga looked into the bedroom between Kwon Taek Joo''s arms and nodded. "It looks like someone''s room." If you don''t look closely, you won''t know that this is a bedroom for two people. Kwon Taek Joo tried to rationalize it but his pounding heart still couldn''t calm down. He was worried that somewhere in the room there might be something that reminded Olga of his relationship with Zhenya. His body was suddenly drenched in sweat. While Kwon Taek Joo stopped her, Olga gave a strange smile and looked around the room. She said "Ah" with a long, naked breath. "Even though you don''t have feelings, your bodies are still very compatible." She giggled mockingly and moved to another room before Kwon Taek Joo could justify it. He turned his head. The mark of someone lying on the pillow on the bed is still intact. Two robes rolled around on the floor and the bed sheet slid halfway down along with the pillows. He also found his underwear turned upside down and forgotten there. All of that didn''t seem normal. -- Kwon Taek Joo sat on the chair, stunned. He had been like that ever since Olga left the bedroom. What the hell is Kwon Taek Joo doing here? Eat, sleep and be pampered by Zhenya. It is a habit that many people repeat every day. The difference is that they use it to maintain their species. At least he didn''t roll around mindlessly or without will while eating what he gave him. Why don''t you actively run away? Did Kwon Taek Joo adapt to Zhenya because he had no other choice? It wasn''t that he felt any desire for him and he had never been eager to meet him. But when Kwon Taek Joo and Zhenya lived together, everything changed. His body was steadily reacting to him, and now it was melting even when the sex was no different from violence. From that moment on, he stopped resisting. Because Kwon Taek Joo has learned that doing so will only incite Zhenya''s excitement and push him into a worse situation. In his resignation to not being able to escape him, it seemed he had become indulgent while constantly making excuses that the situation was unavoidable. Kwon Taek Joo was just trying to make himself comfortable by using the silly excuse that he had no other choice. So even when he was raped, he still had to listen to nonsense about what rape was like. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head angrily. something is definitely going wrong. He denied it to Olga, but his life these past few days was no different from that of a lover. He lived in a villa where only Zhenya visited, slept in the same bed as him, and made love whenever he wanted. The two spent time together in the name of betting while surviving each day on the food he gave them. Being in the same room as Zhenya or having breakfast together is no longer new or stressful. It''s no surprise that Olga discovered the mark and laughed sinisterly. The appearance of a third person makes the cloudy thoughts become more obvious. When Kwon Taek Joo is alone with Zhenya, a conflicted relationship with him develops without his knowledge. Thinking back, Zhenya''s actions also changed subtly compared to the beginning. The guy agreed to bet on any bet that Kwon Taek Joo suggested and became more obedient. The two of them often laugh freely, and even when making love, which only revolves around inserting and withdrawing, the small touches increase significantly. When Zhenya went out and came back, he always brought Korean food with him and the number of times he went out also decreased significantly. anything else? Before going out today, Zhenya even announced when he would return. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s face and neck became hot. His heart began to beat uncomfortably. It was as if the two of them were playing family. Before I knew it, I was being dragged into things like this with him. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his fists. It won''t work like this. -- "Good morning." Olga appeared in the kitchen just after noon. I don''t know if he just woke up or not, but her face is still swollen. She walked up to Kwon Taek Joo, pointed at the ramen and asked. "What is that?". Then he wrinkled her nose and was startled. "You can''t eat it! it''s spoiled!" The other person was eating deliciously but was complaining that it was spoiled. Kwon Taek Joo took the kimchi back from Olga when he was trying to quickly clean up the bowl. Then as if to show off, he took a piece into his mouth and chewed it greedily. Olga''s face wrinkled. "Do you even have the mind to bring that here?" "He bought it." Kwon Taek Joo answered indifferently and drank the rest of the soup. Olga looked surprised. It was unreasonable for Kwon Taek Joo to bring food that suited his taste when he was kidnapped, but it was even more unreasonable for Zhenya to buy and bring food for others. Did something happen to his mind that he didn''t know about? There is reason to be suspicious. Olga wanted to check again. but Zhenya was nowhere to be found. "By the way, where did that man go?" "Why are you asking me?" It''s not that Zhenya constantly informed Kwon Taek Joo, he had no obligation to do so and he himself never asked. Since he was a member of the FSB, he could only guess that Zhenya was on duty. Of course this time for some reason, he announced that he would be back in two days, and didn''t necessarily have to tell her anything. Olga changed the subject by saying "I''m sorry" to the unsympathetic response. "I''m really curious. How did you know that room had the blueprints?" Olga''s sparkling eyes signaled that he would persistently pry if Kwon Taek Joo did not answer. Without much hesitation, he explained that he had combined the mysterious stories Zhenya had told along with many other circumstantial evidence. "Koshichei." Olga rubbed her chin and repeated those words. Then he smiled strangely, looking like that bastard as if he was plotting something. Kwon Taek Joo left Olga alone and stood up from his seat. He brought the dishes to the sink and started washing them. "Don''t you have anything to ask me?" "No." "Are you originally the type of person who doesn''t care about women?" "I''m curious to hear that too. Why would a woman ask such a thing?" Kwon Taek Joo looked back at Olga with a puzzled expression. Even when he received a question, he just smiled. Louise was the same before, women''s psychology is always complicated. Just then Olga took something from the refrigerator and brought it to the table, Kwon Taek also finished washing the dishes. He was about to leave after wiping his hands when Olga pulled him back. "Do you want some fruit?" In Olga''s hand, an apple was being cut into pieces. If you peel it like that, will there be anything left to eat? Kwon Taek Joo sighed and grabbed the fruit knife. It would be less trouble for him to do it himself than to let Olga bleed. Using a skillful knife, the apple is peeled and cut into equal sized pieces. Olga held her breath as he watched and ate what was placed in the bowl. She said to eat together but he pushed it all into her mouth. Kwon Taek Joo looked down at the empty bowl. He peeled another apple. This time Olga also ate all the apples that were put in the bowl, it seemed like it was a substitute for breakfast. Kwon Taek Joo by the way peeled all the apples that Olga bought. She asked why he didn''t eat after he was full. Silly, Kwon Taek Joo smiled and bit an apple that was turning yellow. How long has it been since you last ate fruit? There was the sound of a fan spinning as Kwon Taek Joo was cleaning up the remaining things. It seems Zhenya has returned. The characteristic noise lasted and subsided and soon he came down from the roof. Kwon Taek Joo thought Zhenya would return late in the afternoon but he came home half a day early. Zhenya walked into the kitchen with his arms full of luggage. "What are you doing here?" That was all he said as soon as he saw his sister. As if he was used to such treatment, Olga was not disappointed at all. Instead, he naturally asked him where he had gone. Zhenya turned his gaze from Olga to Kwon Taek Joo. It seemed like he should explain why he was here, but Kwon Taek himself had no way of knowing. All he could do was shake his head and shrug his shoulders. "I still have to unpack my things." As if he didn''t want to hear unpleasant things, Olga actively avoided him. Zhenya looked at his sister displeased. After Olga went to the second floor, he turned his head and stared at Kwon Taek Joo. He looked at him chewing the apple and wondered. "When did that come?" Calling brother and sister into objects like objects is the same for both brothers. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head, he replied that he suddenly appeared yesterday afternoon and it seemed like he came to recuperate. Then he took his knife, bowl and fork and brought them to the sink. Zhenya boiled some water while Kwon Taek Joo cleaned up. It seemed like water was being poured somewhere, and soon a familiar smell lingered. He turned his head curiously. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes fell on a box of mixed rice. It is a product supplied as military food. After carefully reading the instructions written in Russian, Zhenya mixed the hot rice, then scooped it out into a large bowl and gave it to Kwon Taek Joo. "Have you eaten?" "Huh, what?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded. Even so, he still did not withdraw his hand. Instead, he squeezed the spoon between his lips. Is this kid deaf? "I have already eaten." Zhenya gently nodded. However, as soon as Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth, he pushed the spoon in. His cheeks quickly puffed up. Kwon Taek Joo looked bewildered as the empty spoon escaped his mouth. What game is this? He munched and protested. "I said I''ve already eaten, kid." "Don''t pick up and eat dirty things." Zhenya''s face suddenly grimaced. Could he be talking about apples? It''s impossible to say. Just as Kwon Taek Joo opened his mouth to object, a spoonful of bibimbap was shoved in. Chapter 42 - 3.12 Lonely Koshichei 3 Chapter 42: 3.12 Lonely Koshichei 3[NSFW Alert. Violence] Chapter TextKwon Taek Joo ate breakfast twice in a row. His stomach was bloating and starting to reflux with just the slightest movement. He had to lie still all afternoon waiting for the food to be digested, but it was also hard work for Kwon Taek Joo. Is this a new type of torture from Zhenya? After all, why the hell was that boy so dissatisfied that he had such a grimace on his face? Even if Kwon Taek Joo actually swallowed something he shouldn''t have, it''s none of his business. ''Don''t pick up and eat dirty things'' what does he mean? Those are not words to say to humans. Does Zhenya think you''re his dog just because he overpowered you with his strength? Kwon Taek Joo''s mood suddenly calmed down. It seemed that he had learned the reason for his discomfort during his time here. That''s because he was always controlled by Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo has no right to choose what to eat, what to do, where to sleep or how to sleep. Even going to the bathroom was monitored by him. Moreover, on his waist there is also a tattoo with the meaning of depending on him. "Ha ha ha." Looking back at his situation. Kwon Taek Joo burst out laughing. Even though he once denied it, he was no different from a dog or pig raised by him, and having sex with him was no different. The more he resisted, the more Zhenya enjoyed it. In his eyes, Kwon Taek Joo could see the joy of taming a wild animal. "What are you doing?" Olga''s voice suddenly rang out. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even feel the signs approaching, it seemed he was too immersed in his thoughts. "What do you think I''m doing?" "Playing dead?" "That''s wrong. Playing like a pig locked in a cage." Kwon Taek Joo replied nonchalantly and lifted himself up. He didn''t even ask Olga to sit down, but he sat down on the chair next to him. "You must be very bored. How are you doing these days?" "Lay, sit, eat, bathe, sleep." "I''ll let you borrow my book. Read it. It''s an unprecedented masterpiece." The book presented with a compassionate expression was at first glance a romance novel. It would be more interesting to read Buddhist scriptures. Kwon Taek Joo absentmindedly turned the page. "The main character is a bit unsophisticated, doesn''t have money and doesn''t know how to play around, but since childhood he has had a burning dream. Her advantage is that he honestly and positively believes that if he has faith and effort he will achieve that dream even in reality, that is also a drawback and it soon defeats her. She meets a man in a small place and loves unconditionally. Later on, we found out that the man was one of the famous athletes, a lawyer and a second-generation tycoon. Because he was a workaholic, he had no interest in anything all his life. woman, but he was fascinated by the main character''s innocent and pure appearance and loved only her until the end of his life. Thanks to that man''s support, the main character''s dream came true. Isn''t that right?" Olga''s eyes opened wide. "Have you read this?" "Even if I''m not reading, I still feel like I''m reading." Kwon Taek Joo returned the book with a confused face. It seemed very interesting because Olga was engrossed in reading again as if he was immersed in the book. "I don''t think so but that bastard. Does he like raising animals?" Olga did not immediately answer the question. It was as if he couldn''t hear clearly because he was engrossed in reading a book. An answer given a beat too late is also an off topic. "Sure. I love birds, dogs and cats." "No, not you." "If not me then who?" Olga raised her head. His eyes were filled with surprise. "Could it be that person? Is that called a question?" "So I assumed it couldn''t happen." "You already know, why do you still ask? I''ve never seen that person raise a blade of grass. If he didn''t catch poor animals out of boredom, he''d be lucky." Perhaps people sometimes exceed expectations. I don''t understand why a guy who never raised grass, let alone animals, suddenly became interested in raising humans. Why was the target Kwon Taek Joo himself? Does he have to bother you to make him happy? "Because it''s a tiger." Olga grumbled while looking over Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder. He turned his head and saw Zhenya walking down the aisle. He stood tall in front of Kwon Taek Joo. Zhenya didn''t even look at Olga, who was worried whether he would be sent away or not. A look that could not be ignored fell. Kwon Taek Joo has a bad feeling. "What''s up?" As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhenya''s arm approached. Kwon Taek Joo clutched his arm with no chance to escape. He lifted him up and dragged him somewhere. That''s the bedroom. Behind Kwon Taek Joo, Olga opened her eyes wide and looked at the two people. Was he planning on going straight to bed like this? It wasn''t him who got to choose the time and place, but his sister was still watching. Kwon Taek Joo put on a slim hope but Zhenya unbuttoned his shirt in the blink of an eye. It was as if it had been ripped apart. He panicked then suddenly doubled over and cried out. "Ouch." "What''s wrong?" Only then did Zhenya stop and look back, seemingly annoyed at being suddenly stopped. Kwon Taek Joo pretended to moan. "My stomach hurts so much. It probably hurts like this because I was forced to eat." The hand that was clenched tightly suddenly became loose. Kwon Taek Joo took advantage of that moment to run into the bathroom. As soon as he stepped inside, he locked the door. He closed the toilet lid and sat on it, a sigh escaping him. The immediate crisis has been averted but Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know what to do in the future. You can''t complain about having a stomach ache every day. Zhenya doesn''t believe it easily, and given the size of Olga''s luggage, he won''t be leaving anytime soon. Kwon Taek Joo is fed up with life on the island just the two of him with Zhenya and wishes for anyone to show up. But this is not what he wants. The situation is getting worse and worse. He ruffled his messy hair and sighed again. -- Kwon Taek Joo, who was sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes wide because a shadow was covering his whole body. Zhenya was standing above his head all the time. He raised himself up and said, "What are you doing?" Accidentally, the hard dry floor touched his feet. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo fell asleep on the sofa while going in and out of the bathroom with the excuse of a stomach ache. He slowly rubbed the goosebumps on his arms and sat up straight. His neck was stiff because he had been curled up. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away and stretched to avoid Zhenya''s eyes. "Why are you sleeping here?" "I fell asleep going in and out of the bathroom." Kwon Taek Joo made an excuse in a shy voice. A glare fell on the side of his face. Every time Zhenya looked like that, he felt like he was being dissected in every detail. "It''s all your fault, kid." "Are you better now?" Kwon Taek Joo stopped grumbling and looked at him. A bewildered expression appeared on his face. Kwon Taek Joo did not expect Zhenya to ask such a human question. Did he eat something wrong? He nodded awkwardly and then suddenly Zhenya held out his hand. Kwon Taek Joo reflexively jumped back in surprise. The approaching hand also stopped. He slowly glanced at his hand and then looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s face. His eves moved silently as if suffocating his breath. The more he looked, the more he thought of a crocodile. The man, who had not said anything until now, smirked. "Nothing to compliment, right?" "I didn''t ask you for a compliment." "When a pet loses its cuteness, it will be boiled and eaten." His sarcastic attitude clearly sees Kwon Taek Joo as a pet. It wouldn''t be wrong to say that if he didn''t behave lovingly he would die. The death that he and no one else is talking about is very likely to come true. It''s more absurd than scary, though. How can a person born and raised have such a crazy mind? Zhenya immediately reached out his hand again. Just as his hand was about to touch Kwon Taek Joo''s face, he turned his head away. "Don''t." Zhenya''s eyebrows furrowed, dissatisfaction clearly visible on his bloodless face. Kwon Taek Joo stared at him with a dissatisfied face. Two sharp eves faced each other. Suddenly Zhenya reached out and grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s chin. breaking the tension for a moment. "Don''t do that." He angrily threw his hand away. Immediately after that, Kwon Taek Joo was roughly grabbed by the collar and pushed down on the sofa. He waved his arms and legs angrily trying to get away from him. He desperately pushed his chin and kicked Zhenya in the stomach but the more he did that, the harder his face became. The terrible strength in his arms also doubled and his whole body felt like it was about to be crushed. Zhenya violently flipped up his shirt, his body was exposed and the buttons looked like they could be torn immediately. He immediately used his teeth to sink into Kwon Taek Joo''s exposed lower abdomen. "What are you doing!?" He groaned and kicked both legs. Is he planning to make love in the morning in the open living room on all four sides? At that moment there seemed to be an unexpected presence on the second floor. Olga seems to have woken up. Kwon Taek Joo was startled and looked at Zhenya. He also raised his head and faced Kwon Taek Joo. But in just a moment, he licked again from his lower abdomen to his right hip as if to provoke him. The restraint slipped away. Anxiety increased to the maximum. Kwon Taek Joo cannot be seen in such a dirty way. He gritted his teeth and pushed him fiercely, but Zhenya persisted. He slid his hands under his shirt and grabbed his chest as if he was about to explode, then used his thumb to gently rub his nipples. Kwon Taek Joo raised his body in shock, both his eyes opened wide in surprise. "Good morning.." Olga said hello and stood tall right after bumping into two people wrapped around each other on the tiny sofa. She lowered her voice and avoided him. Kwon Taek Joo was embarrassed and covered his eyes with his hand, his molars clenched. Zhenya stared at Kwon Taek Joo and then twisted his nipples. "Ah!" He shouted worriedly and glared at him. Zhenya''s expression became even colder from that moment on. "You better not be naughty." It wasn''t once or twice that Zhenya was rejected, but this time he seemed seriously mad. -- Kwon Taek Joo even skipped meals and cleaned the empty room. If he couldn''t leave this island immediately, he felt he should have a room of his own, and absolutely couldn''t let a situation like this morning happen again. He can''t just sleep in the same bed as Zhenya. There are plenty of rooms available in the villa but bed linen is severely lacking. Sleeping without a blanket can cause hypothermia which can kill even mice and birds, Kwon Taek Joo reluctantly decided to bring the one he was using from Zhenya''s bedroom. Zhenya is resting on a chair in the bedroom. He tilted his head back and closed his eyes. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t want him to wake up so he took each step carefully. But without knowing when, Zhenya opened his eyes and followed Kwon Taek Joo. He tried not to notice that calm and naked gaze and picked up a pillow. He also took an extra blanket from the closet. "What are you doing?" "We have eyes to see, I can''t continue to stay here." Kwon Taek Joo opened the drawer and took out some underwear. All are brand new, unopened packaging. He went into the bathroom to get his own toothbrush and razor. He was busy moving back and forth and dropped the pillow he was wearing at his waist. Kwon Taek Joo tried to bend down to pick it up, but Zhenya stepped closer and stepped on it with his shoe. He slowly raised his head. Zhenya''s stiff face turned grim. "In whose saying?" "Of course it''s my idea. Stay out of my way." Kwon Taek Joo growled in a low voice, the emotions he had suppressed for so long seemed to burst out immediately. "Don''t get excited just because I let you loose a little. You need to know your situation." Kwon Taek Joo clenched his molars, his hands clenched into fists. If it were normal, he would try to endure it, because after living together for a while, he learned that provoking Zhenya was not a good thing. However, Kwon Taek Joo cannot ignore this time, even if he looks down on others, there must be some level. He stood up straight and patted Zhenya on the shoulder. "Everything should be in moderation." Zhenya stared at his shoulder then turned his head to look at Kwon Taek Joo with cold eyes. Up to this point, he still lived like that and rarely protested. At many stages Kwon Taek Joo gave up on himself just to survive and because of that he endured whatever he had to face. In almost every situation, Zhenya takes the initiative and Kwon Taek Joo''s life and death are completely in his hands. He is the only way to connect him to the outside world and let him know that Kwon Taek Joo himself is still alive. Then a new person appeared, and a lot of things changed because of that one thing. At least that''s the case with Kwon Taek Joo. Olga appeared and woke him up. He had to face his laziness in enjoying the comfort of adapting and compromising with Zhenya. Looking back now, his relationship with Zhenya had been distorted beyond definition. He felt like he would lose control if he continued to be carried away. While he was arranging his thoughts, Zhenya strode forward. Kwon Taek Joo reflexively stepped back and tossed the blanket he was holding in his hand. The fluttering blanket obscured Zhenya''s vision. He swung his fist at the loser. However the attack ended in vain as he raised his hand to block it. His clenched fist was grabbed and twisted back. Kwon Taek Joo''s knuckles seemed to be twisted by merciless force. He seemed to be fading away but suddenly turned around halfway and kicked Zhenya in the shin. The unexpected counterattack caused Zhenya to fall to his knees. Kwon Taek Joo, who was being held by him, also fell down. "Ah" The sound of the head hitting the floor rang out. If it weren''t for the carpet, Kwon Taek Joo would have suffered a concussion. His lungs were compressed, making him short of breath. He wanted to stand up but Zhenya pressed on him, making Kwon Taek Joo unable to move. Looking back at the situation at that moment. it seemed that he had intentionally fallen. The next moment, Zhenya suddenly grabbed his pants. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed that arm and pushed him away, but he was motionless. The hand-to-hand fight went on in silence for a long time, with only the sounds of panting and fierce gestures going back and forth countless times. Suddenly a knock on the door signaled its end. The movement of the two people stopped. But in a moment, Zhenya without hesitation grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s ankle, then he tore off his shirt and scrunched it up. Kwon Taek Joo quickly pushed his chin away and tried to hold the shirt tightly with one hand. His shocked eyes and Zhenya''s blind eyes were intertwined. Just then, Olga raised her voice and said, "Let''s go outside and talk for a bit.". At that moment, Kwon Taek Joo picked up a pillow that fell to the floor and hit Zhenya in the face. He was hit in the face unconsciously, his head turned half way and he was motionless. Even the sound of breathing stopped. In that gap. Kwon Taek Joo stepped back and escaped from Zhenya. Then he hurriedly left the bedroom. "..." Zhenya didn''t move for such a long time. It seemed like a bright red fire was spreading before his eyes, his chin trembled, and the water from his whole body seemed to evaporate. He himself didn''t know why he was suddenly so angry. Zhenya stood up. Not in a rush. The slow movement increased the pressure as if the warmth that was lacking on the white winter day had completely disappeared. He intended to chase after Kwon Taek Joo but Olga suddenly stopped him in front. "Stay away." Zhenya ordered in a voice that was neither high nor low. When Olea shook her head and stood still, he shoved her shoulder hard. Olga helplessly fell down, then stood up again and ran in front of Zhenya. His cold eyes fell again. Faced with those crazy sparkling eyes, no matter how hard he tried, her shoulders would shrink. "I want to talk to you." Zhenya ignored that request and walked past Olga. Olga couldn''t hold him back. All he could do was scream at his indifferent back. "Bazim is home. His conversation with dad was very unusual. You might actually get hurt this time. So don''t be stubborn and give everyone what they want!" The real purpose of the surprise visit was there. But Olga''s worries couldn''t reach Zhenya. He strode up the stairs as if he hadn''t heard anything. "Aren''t you tired of being here isolated and alone?" Olga called to the end. Again still no answer. Zhenya''s figure also quickly disappeared from her sight. Even talking to the wall would not be so helpless, Olga slumped her shoulders and let out a choking sign. -- Boom. The shock was strong enough to bend a closed door. But inside the door remained silent. Once again half Zhenya banged on the door. The fist pounding on the door was filled with rage, but the voice that followed was low and dry. "Open the door." There were still no signs inside. Zhenya''s face became colder. He lifted his foot and kicked the door without hesitation. The door broke in half with a violent crash. Zhenya quickly opened the tattered door and stepped inside. Kwon Taek Joo stood next to the window, frowning in surprise. Zhenya strode closer and grabbed his chin. "Cough." For a moment, his legs were lifted into the air. Zhenya''s jaw clenched as if he was about to crush him. Zhenya held Kwon Taek Joo with one hand and stared at him, his eyes expressionless as if he was enjoying things and not people. Kwon Taek Joo''s face immediately turned red, his eyes closed tightly It seemed like he was about to die in his hands. His feet were struggling to hold on to life and kicked him in the stomach. Immediately, Zhenya pinned Kwon Taek Joo against the opposite wall. He hit his head against the wall and fell onto the table. Kwon Taek Joo groaned with shaking limbs. Meanwhile, Zhenya looked down at the spot where he had just been kicked, then tilted his head back and took a breath. A golden light of anger spread in the eyes of the person who was closing the distance once again. It seemed like the detonator in his head had been activated. Kwon Taek Joo quickly lifted himself up. He threw a wooden stool that was lying right at his feet. Zhenya raised his hand and gently blocked it. The old stool shattered as soon as it hit his hand. Zhenya lightly brushed wood chips and sawdust off his arm. Immediately after that, the two people''s eyes met. His eyes silently looking down at Kwon Taek Joo were not like human eyes at all. It was almost like a predator preparing to hunt. Just as Kwon Taek Joo was startled. Zhenya rushed at him in an instant. There was no time to dodge, his entire face was grabbed. Kwon Taek Joo was pushed against the wall from behind his head. While he was still dazed with shock, his throat was tightened, his body was lifted up. Kwon Taek Joo tried to swing his fist out of survival instinct, but to no avail. When Zhenya raised his hand, Kwon Taek Joo''s feet were lifted off the floor. His body had no support and struggled desperately to survive. Zhenya attentively watched Kwon Taek Joo in severe pain. The blue eves held no sympathy or any hesitation. "If a dog stands up to its owner, there''s no need for it to live" His fingertips tightened the neck more and more, the skin stretched as if it was about to be punctured by his fingers. Pressure was on his eyes and saliva flowed from his lips that were panting with difficulty. Kwon Taek Joo''s life with Zhenya is threatened every moment. Although he behaves extremely comfortably, he will turn around and rush in when insulted. Kwon Taek Joo was too exhausted to continue walking on such a precarious rope. Living in a place without hope and having to be in harmony with Zhenya''s mood to live, if you can''t get off this island, it''s a life no different from death. No, maybe death would be better. Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes with difficulty and saw Zhenya. A vein appeared on his smooth forehead. He frowned at the pain every minute and second and stubbornly looked at Zhenya. No matter how he strangled him, only his eyelids trembled but he definitely did not close his eyes. Is that persistent gaze enough to cause pressure? Zhenya''s eyebrows furrowed. Kwon Taek Joo muttered intermittently. looking down at him. "Okay, kill me. I can''t do anything other than moan." The expressionless face was permeated with discomfort. Zhenya strangled Kwon Taek Joo mercilessly. The force was so great that it seemed to crush all the vertebrae in his neck. Kwon Taek Joo''s head tilted back on its own. His reason had given up the struggle to survive. He just looked at Zhenya''s horribly distorted face, his limbs had no strength left. Zhenya wrinkled his nose. He didn''t even realize why he was so angry that he was immersed in punishing Kwon Taek Joo. Kwon Taek Joo gasped then smiled. He was ready for death, a ghost like him was now nothing. On the contrary, he always felt sympathy for his extremism. "I feel sorry for you too." Kwon Taek Joo whispered in a voice as weak as his breath. Perhaps it was just an illusion, but it seemed like Zhenya''s hand that was strangling him also lost its strength for a moment. But that was just for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo soon lost consciousness. The black eyes that once contained Zhenya closed heavily. Kwon Taek Joo''s pulse, which was beating violently, could no longer be felt. Zhenya withdrew the power from his hand. Kwon Taek Joo''s floating body fell to the floor. When he opened his wet hand, his fingertips were covered in blood. It was buried in Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo who had collapsed at his feet and then looked at his own hand in dismay. He dealt with the person who made him unhappy, but why is he in such a bad mood? Nothing could bother him anymore, but why was his heart, which he couldn''t even feel the beat of normally, beating so fast and heavily. Zhenya observed Kwon Taek Joo motionless from afar and then suddenly grabbed his arm. But only his arms were pulled up while Kwon Taek Joo''s body still sagged. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s collar and shook him wildly. His eyes trembled as he looked around. There was no reaction from Kwon Taek Joo at all. Zhenya slapped his cheek. After only two times, his cheeks were red and swollen and the corners of his mouth were also filled with blood. However, there was still no significant response. Zhenya pulled Kwon Taek Joo''s face closer and continuously placed his ear on his nose and mouth to check his breathing. He could feel the breath, but it was hard to tell if it was Kwon Taek Joo''s or Zhenya''s own. He put Kwon Taek Joo on the ground and tore his shirt. He placed his ear on her bare chest again and listened to the heartbeat. There was a light pulse from inside his skin, but it was so weak that it seemed like it would die at any moment. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s chin and opened it. He inserted his finger and pressed it on his tongue and fixed his airway. At that moment, something fell from his face and landed on Kwon Taek Joo''s forehead. His sweat. Zhenya''s actions stopped immediately. What was so urgent that he was drenched in sweat in just a moment? His eyes opened wide empty but contained nothing in them. He was quite shocked. S~ea??h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zhenya immediately stood up. He walked to the broken door. He then threw debris and furniture around. The room that Kwon Taek Joo diligently cleaned was quickly devastated. However, he still couldn''t relieve his mood, Zhenya curled his shoulders and breathed heavily. He tilted his head for a moment and adjusted his breathing. An unnamed feeling of loss spread throughout his body. Frustrating. His heart was still beating fast for no reason. Why? After all, why? Why is he so unhappy? Zhenya left his seat and walked away. Olga was running towards him when he saw the strange face, he looked at Zhenya with a surprised expression. Olga asked what was going on, but he just walked up the stairs without answering. That was the first time Olga saw that expression on Zhenya. Having an unfortunate feeling, he quickly entered the broken door. Kwon Taek Joo is lying in a messy room with no place to put his feet. Olga checked his breathing first then lifted his eyelids and looked into Kwon Taek Joo''s pupils. Luckily, he was still breathing. There was blood on the neck where the fingerprints were. It wasn''t too much, but it seemed like he had to stop the bleeding first. Olga was about to go get the medicine box when the sound of spinning blades rang out. The helicopter took off and quickly left the villa. Chapter 43 - 3.13 Lonely Koshichei 4 Chapter 43: 3.13 Lonely Koshichei 4[NSFW Alert. Violence / 18+] Chapter TextFSB Director Oleg Khizinsky left his office and went to the command headquarters of the Alpha 3 unit. He was on his way straight after receiving news that Zhenya had gone to work. He was always absent and only answered calls when he felt like it, so he had to go find him personally. Two armed elite agents followed the director. It is to prepare for any possible armed conflict. Like a reptile whose body temperature changes every hour, even Zhenya''s temperament is so sensitive that it is difficult to please him. Just as the director''s group had just arrived on the second floor, one person was suddenly thrown out the door. The man collided with the opposite wall and then collapsed. The room he had just rushed out of was the group''s destination, ''Alpha 3 Unit Command Headquarters. The two agents quietly pulled out their guns. The inside of the room was more messy than expected. The so-called window was smashed and the iron desk was overturned. Office supplies such as papers and phones were scattered on the floor. Zhenya turned his head at the presence at the door, the director''s eyes observing the group of people looked very unusual. What happened to him today? The director signaled the agents telling them to put their guns away. He then sent those two people on high alert out. He closed the door himself and sat on the sofa that had long been pushed out of place. Zhenya stood in place and observed his every move. His stinging glare made him uncomfortable. "I heard you''re keeping that Korean spy, right? Is he dead?" "If not, then hand him over now, what do you think? We should also think about the face of the FSB." The answer is silence. Zhenya didn''t even show any thought for a second. If he had that intention from the beginning, he wouldn''t have gone too far with the spy. Heavy silence followed. Finally, the director shook his head and sighed. As if he had given up, he threw out the pile of papers he was carrying. "If you don''t like it then take charge of this and deal with it. Something has to be achieved to restore the lost image, right?" No matter how you look at it, it doesn''t look like a superior is giving instructions to a subordinate. It''s more like a conditional agreement. Zhenya glanced at the pile of papers at his feet and then looked back at the director. The director briefly explained what he would have to do. "Not long ago, a military intelligence officer was murdered. was right after he was seen entering the hotel with a woman. According to the crime scene investigation team, it appears that he was killed by a suicide bomber while having sex. The rebels now seemed ready to resort to beautification. A group of about 20 rebels disguised their identities, including the woman. dead woman, entered Moscow. So this is probably the beginning." The director paused for a moment and then gave an order. "Find and deal with them all. -- Late at night. The two men and women wrapped their arms around each other and left an upscale bar in downtown Moscow. The man is a high-ranking government official in the Ministry of National Defense. He climbed into a sedan provided by the bar, not an official vehicle. The man''s partner is a woman whose overflowing sensuality cannot be hidden. As soon as he arrived at the hotel, the man impatiently pulled her wrist. After entering the elevator, the two were extremely entwined with each other. The excited man hugged the woman and sat her on the handrail inside the elevator, then rolled her skirt up to her waist. The woman also opened her legs and squeezed the man tightly. He bit into the garter belt that wrapped around the woman''s smooth thighs. When the belt was thrown off, the woman trembled slightly at the waist and groaned softly. The man touched his lips and greedily sucked his tongue as if ready to swallow her excited breath. The elevator quickly went up. They were both half-naked when they stepped out. He threw the woman onto the bed. The girl smiled and rubbed her round breasts. It was a provocative gesture. The naked man rushed at the woman immediately. He touched his lips again and pulled the rest of her clothes off. When the bra was pulled up, her plump breasts rose elastically. He buried his face in it and spread the woman''s legs wide and wrapped them around his waist while rubbing furiously. The shirt, neatly ironed by his wife, was crumpled in the hands of an unknown woman. He took off her underwear while frantically kissing the woman''s neck. The girl was very anxious but insisted on keeping her knees together. The enthusiastic man with a restless body moved around and tickled her buttocks. "Ha, ha, should I lift my ass, huh?" "Ah." He pulled out his penis that was about to explode. The erect mass of flesh snorted, looking for a hole to enter. He sucked the nipple while brushing the hot glans over the woman''s center. She tilted her head and arched her body. In an instant, her body opened wide and he inserted his meat shaft. "Ahh!" "Ah, huh?" After enjoying the feeling of tight compression for a while, the man let out a questioning voice. His head was buried in the girl''s chest, looking up. A hard object touches the glans inside the hole. It seemed like there was something inside the woman''s vagina. He looked bewildered at the still smiling girl hugging his neck, a somewhat forced smile. The man belatedly tried to run away, but the woman hugged him tightly and refused to let go. To prevent the man from easily escaping, her legs were also tightly wrapped around his waist. "I said I would kill you." The girl whispered sweetly into the bewildered man''s ear. The man panicked at the feeling of danger, but for some reason he could not escape the woman''s arms. Suddenly a loud noise rang out. At the same time, the tightly closed door was almost torn apart. The man and woman looked back at the door in surprise at the same time. An uninvited guest walked in front of the two. The one person who didn''t have a trace of shame when he saw the two of them entwined with each other was none other than Zhenya. He burst in with a rifle. Zhenya suddenly grabbed the man who couldn''t move because the woman grabbed him and threw him to the floor without hesitation. In an unexpected situation, the woman quickly pulled out the detonator. However, before he could press the detonation button, her arm was grabbed. In an instant, the detonator fell from the woman''s twisted arm. "Ah!" The woman screamed in pain. Zhenya did not hesitate to point the gun at her head. He did not hesitate for even a second until he pulled the trigger. The woman''s body shook and drooped down. Fresh blood splattered all over Zhenya''s face and body. The man who had witnessed the entire scene hastily ran away. But at that moment. it seemed like the air particles in the air suddenly swelled. Part of the wall was blown away with consecutive loud explosions, and the ceiling also fell helplessly. The impact of the explosion shattered all the windows at the front and all the lights in the building went out. His vision was suddenly blocked. Zhenya blocked debris and dirt with the flap of his jacket. Even though he didn''t understand what was going on, his ears were ringing as if something was wrong with his eardrums. Not long after, a laser beam shines through the broken windows. The groping light in the hotel room, which was full of broken glass and stone dust, quickly reached Zhenya''s mouth. Immediately after, the laser light moved down around his left chest area. Without saying a word, Zhenya looked down at the red dot on his chest. In the next moment, dozens of laser beams flew from many directions and stuck in one place. Instantly, Zhenya''s chest and head were dyed red. Now, if he moves just one step, his entire body will become a corpse. A moment later, there was the familiar sound of propellers approaching. The helicopter hovered in the dark sky and aimed its lights at Zhenya. For some reason, its appearance looks quite familiar. And of course, the FSB symbol emblazoned on the bottom of the helicopter appeared. He didn''t ask for help, so of course he didn''t come to help voluntarily. Zhenya can speak intuitively. This is a double trap. -- Even though it was late, the president still stayed in the Oval Office. Bazim also sat on his chair with a restless look on his face. The two just silently waited for some news. Occasionally he pulled up his sleeve to check the time. Just then, he felt a presence outside the door, and there was a knock on the door. The person who appeared when invited in was FSB director Oleg Khizinsky. The eyes of the President and Bazim turned to him at the same time. The director politely bowed and reported the progress. "A combat team has been brought into the scene. We have blocked all of the target''s escape routes and completely surrounded them." It''s a vague expression but it''s not difficult to understand its meaning. The President nodded silently. Bazim''s expression was not much different, there was no concern or sympathy for his blood relative on his face. The president looked at the FSB director again. There was another piece of news that he had been waiting for more than the previous report. Oleg Khizinsky did not keep him waiting long. "Half an hour ago, nine members of the Vimpel special forces were also dispatched to the location. They are elite agents that you can trust, so please don''t worry." Faced with the director''s boasts, the president finally smiled with satisfaction. He nodded and praised me. "Good job." Important instructions were given one after another. "If the ''watchman'' resists to the end, then just eliminate him." -- All that could be seen was thick darkness. No, maybe it''s snow. Even though he couldn''t see anything, Kwon Taek Joo could feel the characteristic coldness. Not a single wind passed through that place. There was no way out, and he felt trapped in a space with nothing passing through. It''s so stuffy. A child suddenly appeared while he was looking at the dark surroundings. A bov who looked about 6 or 7 years old. The child stood alone in the distance so he couldn''t see his face. Kwon Taek Joo tried to talk but for some reason he couldn''t raise his voice. A moment later, someone approached the child. He couldn''t tell if it was a man or a woman. That figure hovered around the child for a while then suddenly disappeared somewhere. Another person approached the bewildered child. But then that person quickly disappeared. The boy was once again left behind. Countless silhouettes passed by the child. Sometimes one or two people, sometimes a whole group. But in the end no one remained. The boy attracted many passersby but quickly became a loner. After a while, the child turned around. The pale face first approached Kwon Taek Joo. He didn''t hesitate to step forward and quickly approached the boy. Even at close range, he could not see the child''s face. A white hand slowly reached out. Kwon Taek Joo was absentmindedly looking away when suddenly that hand grabbed his finger. The boy''s ice-cold body temperature sent chills down his spine. The child suddenly clenched his hands, so tight that his fingers throbbed in pain. That''s unparalleled power for such a small body. Kwon Taek Joo wondered if the boy was afraid of losing the hand he just held? The child dragged Kwon Taek Joo somewhere. For some reason, he had a premonition that if he was dragged along, he would never be able to escape. He is not confident in raising children. With the thought of being responsible for a child he didn''t even know who he was, Kwon Taek Joo quickly twisted his hand away from that small hand. With empty hands, the child looked at Kwon Taek Joo in bewilderment. The child held out his hand again. Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously stepped back. Its white face was confused with shock, Unlucky premonition. The child immediately burst into tears. The fresh air of space quickly froze. With every breath he took, sharp ice crystals also filled his lungs. Ignoring the tears that continued to flow, the child cried loudly until his voice was hoarse. With that echo, the vast space around began to collapse helplessly. The floor shook as if an earthquake had occurred, and the ceiling and walls crumbled. It''s dangerous. Kwon Taek Joo tried to cling to the child and protect him, but it was not easy to catch him. The more he reached out, the more it wiped away its tears and moved away. A completely collapsed world suddenly swallowed Kwon Taek Joo. -- He took a deep breath and opened his eyes. His vision widened rapidly, making him dizzy. The rotating ceiling looks quite familiar. Kwon Taek Joo moved his hand and felt the floor. It''s stiff. Kwon Taek Joo was left on the floor, not on the bed nor in front of the fireplace. He closed his eyes and recalled his last memories before losing consciousness. A sigh came out, I don''t know if it was from relief or helplessness. This time he thought he was going to die. "Are you awake?" Kwon Taek Joo noticed Olga''s presence when he heard the question. He lifted himself up and as if he was waiting, a sharp pain shot through his body. Kwon Taek Joo swallowed back the moan that was about to come out and looked around again. The look of the room was unbelievable, even the post war ruins didn''t seem that bad. Meanwhile, only the area around Kwon Taek Joo was tidied up. His body was covered with a blanket and had a pillow for his head. Not only that, there were bandages wrapped around his neck and arms. Olga couldn''t move Kwon Taek Joo so it seemed like he took care of him that way. "What happened yesterday? Why did he go so crazy?" Olga was curious. He shook his head. Even Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand why Zhenya was so angry. Even though he usually changed his expression every time he caused trouble, he wondered if using a private room was something worth being so angry about. Of course his useless attacks in anger might have also made him angrier. For someone who likes ''legitimate defense'', is that an act worth killing him for? "He went out yesterday." Olga informed about Zhenya''s whereabouts when Kwon Taek Joo still did not ask, and also classified the drugs he used. Then he said "Let''s eat" and left the room first. Kwon Taek Joo awkwardly touched the bandage. He had no intention of remembering, but Zhenya''s cold expression appeared clearly. He had never been a rational person, but at that moment, it seemed like a fuse in his head had blown. Even when attacking others, he is filled with leisure. Even when it was revealed that he was not Kwon Taek Joo''s colleague and when he came to the embassy to arrest him, Zhenya did not make that face. I don''t know if this is a miracle when Kwon Taek Joo is still breathing. After realizing it again, belatedly, his fingertips trembled again. Then suddenly he remembered the strange dream he had just now. The person he saw in his dream was a child, but why did he suddenly think of him? The only similarities are her transparent white skin and unusual ivory hair. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head again to clear his thoughts. He hurriedly left the room before any more strange thoughts appeared in his mind. Kwon Taek Joo walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. For some reason, Olga wasn''t there. No, I thought so. That was because he was cowering on the opposite side of the dining table hidden from view. Just what was he doing there, but the image of her unnaturally clenching her chest caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. Cold sweat broke out on her bloodless face. "Hey! What''s wrong?" "Medicine, get medicine." Kwon Taek Joo licked his dry lips vigorously. His whole body trembled. He looked around in shock. Soon he found a bottle of medicine rolling under the table. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have time to check what kind of medicine it was, so he opened the lid and gave it to Olga. Olea swallowed the pill in her hand without water. Then he took a deep breath. Kwon Taek Joo carefully lifted her body and brought her water for her to slowly drink. Her cold hands are also massaged to help blood circulation. After a while. Olga''s breathing gradually returned to normal. Her skin also improved significantly. "I have congenital angina." (Congenital angina is having chest pain or discomfort, it''s a heart condition from birth) Olga confessed while rubbing her aching heart. It seemed like her coming here to recuperate wasn''t just empty talk. Kwon Taek Joo helped Olga unsteadily sit down on the chair. He boiled water and brought her another cup of warm water. Olga smiled lightly and said thank you. That was when Olga had just received the glass of water. A slight wave rippled on the surface of the water in the glass. Is it an illusion? The sound of helicopters rang out continuously. Zhenya is back? No, this sound is different from his. At this level, it is likely that this military helicopter has auxiliary rotors. Kwon Taek Joo reached out and placed his index finger between his lips. Olga, not understanding what was going on, nodded silently. He left her in the kitchen and moved to the front window. Kwon Taek Joo pressed his back against the wall and observed the movement outside the window. Not long after, military helicopters crossing the sea appeared in his sight. As if planning to land on the island, they gradually lowered their altitude. It doesn''t feel very good. At least they weren''t here to patrol an uninhabited island owned by Zhenya, Kwon Taek Joo hurried back to the kitchen. "What''s going on?" "Military helicopters are approaching." "Military helicopters?" Olga raised her hand to cover her mouth. It seemed like something was choked up. Before coming here, he overheard a conversation between her father Vissarion and Bazim. They said that if Zhenya did not eventually hand over ''Anastasia'' they would seize it by force. He said it was the Kremlin''s will. She couldn''t tell if those unwanted guests were simply looking for Anastasia or if they were trying to harm Zhenya. Now that he''s not here. I wonder what the situation will be like? Above all, he worried about Kwon Taek Joo''s safety. "I don''t know why they came here, but we should get away first. For now, just do what I say." Olga nodded silently. No one in the family knew he was here. There was no way Vissarion or Bazim would allow her to meet Zhenya before a major event that needed to be kept secret. So nothing good would come of her encountering the government army. Kwon Taek Joo went down to the basement and took out the gun he and Zhenya used to hunt with. He also put bullets in his pocket. Even if the accuracy of the shot is a little lower, it is still better than hitting with bare hands. When he returned to the kitchen, Olga immediately lifted up the hem of her dress, then he took the Colt off the gun rack on her lap and gave it to him. "I''ll give you this." After all, he is a blood relative of the Bogdanov family. Kwon Taek Joo smiled and returned the Colt to her. "You don''t have to wear it as jewelry, you know how to shoot, right? Keep it and shoot it in case you have to." "But you''re more dangerous than me." "Who are you worried about?" At about that time, the noise of the propeller subsided. Kwon Taek Joo quickly led Olga through the back door. As expected, a military helicopter landed on the snowy field. As soon as the engine stopped, the door opened and armed agents poured out. A total of 9 people including the pilot. The difference in the number of people and the inferiority in weapons were too great, it was better for Kwon Taek Joo to avoid a direct collision and hide somewhere. "Do you know how to ski?" He asked while wearing Olga''s umbrella. Olga said "Is that a question" as if it was unreasonable. What a blessing in misfortune. Kwon Taek Joo showed her a place far away on the horizon. "See that birch forest over there? When I give the signal, run in that direction. Even if a shot rings out or there''s some noise behind you, don''t look back and keep running, got it?" S§×ar?h the N??eFire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Olga nodded eagerly. There was no sign of fear. That''s thanks to the courage honed for decades in the Bogdanov family. After quickly checking Olga''s ski equipment, Kwon Taek Joo signaled by patting her on the back. Olga hit the floor with her pole and slid on the snow. He had to attract attention until he reached the safety of the forest. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the girl who was sliding away expertly and then returned to the villa. Immediately afterwards, the agents were divided into two special teams and rushed in. Following the commander''s signal, one team went upstairs, the other team stayed on the first floor and began searching. As if they were looking for something, they kept knocking on the walls and floors, and they even carried metal detectors. Soon, one of the group members found the stairs leading to the basement. They turned on the lights on their helmets and carefully got off. The moment they confirmed that there was no presence and took another step, a hand reached out from between the steps and grabbed their ankles. The attack was so sudden that they fell forward without a chance to react. "Ugh!" A painful groan came from the fallen man. Meanwhile, he was busy searching for the rifle he had lost in his hand. But nothing came within reach. He raised his head curiously. Soon, someone''s long legs filled his vision. That''s Kwon Taek Joo. The rifle the man was looking for was turned over to him. He hit the man in the head with the butt of the gun in his hand. The man could not fight back and fell limp. Kwon Taek Joo dragged him down the stairs and rummaged through his clothes. On the back of the bulletproof vest is embroidered the emblem of "Vimpel. a special unit affiliated with the FSB. Did the FSB send them with the purpose of arresting Kwon Taek Joo? There are a lot of angles that aren''t very clear. The same goes for using a metal detector to search inside the mansion and not being too vigilant to find someone hiding. It was as if they already knew that the homeowner was not here. While Kwon Taek Joo was developing his thoughts, a bullet flew out of nowhere. Another group member seemed aware of the commotion in the basement and ran over. He quickly dodged it. The other agents heard the gunshots and ran to the front of the basement one by one. Kwon Taek Joo went to the door leading outside and mounted the skateboard. It will be difficult to avoid being chased as long as your presence is detected. The forest was the safest place to hide, but he couldn''t drag them there with Olga. Kwon Taek Joo walked in the opposite direction from which he had fled. It was still daytime and the surface of the snowfield had melted moderately, Kwon Taek Joo slid quickly across it. The wind was as fierce as the speed of running, making his eyes sting. He frowned and walked away because he didn''t have goggles with him. Not long after, the agents found Kwon Taek Joo and called each other. Gunshots rang out continuously. The bullets flew from behind through the snow just one step ahead or behind Kwon Taek Joo. He gritted his teeth and rubbed his eyes harder. When he suddenly ran out of range, the agents equipped special skateboards and chased him. Helicopters also followed above his head. It was difficult to aim at a target running in an S-shape, but even if he ran until his limbs became weak, the distance would gradually narrow. With a numerical inferiority, Kwon Taek Joo cannot stop or confront them. It seemed like he had to use the geographical features he had learned up to this point to cut them off. Soon after, multiple shots were fired from the helicopter. Kwon Taek Joo turned around and hid under a cliff covered with white snow. Three or four agents kept up. Then the helicopters began providing cover fire. As if he had been waiting. Kwon Taek Joo rushed out. Bullets rained down continuously and stuck to the steep cliff. Not long after, a loud roar rang out. Kwon Taek Joo pushed the pole as hard as he could and increased his speed. The moment he left the cliff, the separated layer of sediment collapsed. The agents chasing him were startled and changed direction but could not avoid an avalanche that occurred immediately. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t look back and sped through the snowy field. The helicopter kept rushing and shooting. Bullets rained down, tearing apart the normally quiet snowfield. Kwon Taek Joo narrowly passed through the crossfire on a white snow covered field. A steep cliff will appear in a moment. That''s where he had his eye on trying paragliding. It was perfect for sliding down but he didn''t know if it was suitable for jumping. However, Kwon Taek Joo can only try. He made up his mind and flew up without hesitation. The wind blew from all directions supporting his body. Kwon Taek Joo reduces drag by tilting his upper body at an angle. The agents couldn''t react in time, so they could only watch Kwon Taek Joo''s daring and reckless jump. The bottom of the cliff is quickly being approached. That''s the falling point. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the rope so he could open the parachute at any time. Just then, a gunshot rang in his ears. The body that was falling straight down suddenly lost strength. Chapter 44 - 3.14 Lonely Koshichei 5 Chapter 44: 3.14 Lonely Koshichei 5Suddenly he looked up into space with an annoyed expression. His pale face was covered with streaks of fresh blood of unknown origin. At his feet were the agents who had participated in last night''s operation scattered. He frowned at the bright sunlight. He didn''t even realize it was morning. Thinking back, my ears were too noisy. Police who started after receiving reports of an explosion were lined up on the street. Ambulances also blared their sirens and rushed to transport the injured. "Ugh!" The man in his arms let out a heavy groan. He was the only survivor among the FSB agents sent in last night. Zhenya did not ask him who was the instigator of this mission and what was the purpose. He was used to having his life threatened this way. Even in a dying state, he still easily broke the neck of an agent who was trying to fight to the end. The man convulsed and drooped down. He was lost in thought as he wiped his bloody hand on the edge of the curtain. Having received an unexpected gift, now it''s his turn to say thank you, right? Who should he go to first? FSB Director? Or the Kremlin? He smiled as he imagined how Bazim would react when he saw him. He happily developed these thoughts, but suddenly he felt doubts. They will not be optimistic that they can eliminate Zhenya with just that much force. He didn''t know if they were going to tie him up and buy time or not. ''The President also wants to reaffirm your loyalty. This opportunity could be the Kremlin''s last generosity.'' ''Bazim is home. His conversation with his father was very unusual. You could really get hurt this time.'' Could it be? The doubts over the past seemed to have been reinforced. His mischievous face also stiffened. He remembered Kwon Taek Joo who was on the island. His eyes flashed bright yellow and he felt dizzy. For a moment, the comfort was gone. He must return to the island immediately. The strides quickly turned into a quick run. -- He flew through the erratic air currents. When the speed was increased to maximum, the helicopter could not bear to shake violently. The winding black surface of the sea seemed like it could swallow a dangerous helicopter in an instant. He was reckless with a flight that could crash at any time. The only thought in his mind was to return to the island. His heart was pounding uncomfortably. The speed got worse. Nameless frustration continuously tightened around his neck. He doesn''t even know why he is doing these things. He only vaguely thought that if he set foot on the island, this unpleasant feeling would disappear. Despite the bad weather, he arrived on the island earlier than usual. The first thing that caught sight was a military helicopter turning near the cliff. He immediately turned around and flew straight there. When Zhenya''s helicopter approached, the military helicopters opened fire without hesitation. Zhenya could not avoid the flying bullets. The bullets went through the windows, propellers and the front of the fuselage. Black smoke billowed out from the tail. However. he still stubbornly rushed into the military helicopter. That reckless action hides the will to not be afraid of collision. Sensing danger, the military helicopter stopped firing and to hastily increase altitude but in the end it was still impossible to avoid a collision. The fan blades rub against each other creating sparks. The air around it temporarily condensed and then exploded violently. A terrible explosion shattered the air. Black smoke rose, the two planes became piles of scrap metal and fell helplessly. One step before, Zhenya jumped into the sea. Debris from the helicopter fell menacingly. He avoided it and dived deep into the water, then kicked the water and emerged. The agents ran to the battlefield and pulled the trigger randomly. The target once again dives and disappears from their sight. The agents targeted all over the sea and waited for Zhenya to reappear. But he never appeared on the water. Was he injured and drowned? It was during this time that the agents faced each other in bewilderment, a chill somewhere behind them. The agent quickly turned the barrel of the gun, but his head was bowed first. The last bullet he fired took away the breath of his poor comrade. Dreamy red blood spread across the pure white snow field. Zhenya rushed to the cliff where the military helicopter hovered. Even though his eyes were wide open, there was nothing strange there. The closer he got to the cliff, the more the feeling of haste that was boiling in his heart had spread to the extreme. He reached the edge of the cliff and looked down. Blood streaks gradually spread across the prominent snowfield, but Kwon Taek Joo was still nowhere to be seen. Zhenya without hesitation attached his body to the ice wall and slid down. The snow was so dense that it softened the shock, but it was not completely without shock. He clenched his molars and lifted his throbbing body. Zhenya looked around in all directions, searching for Kwon Taek Joo. He chased after the sparse blood stains. That trace was interrupted dozens of meters from where he stood. And there, he saw a small cave that even Zhenya did not know about. It''s called a cave, but it''s just a groove narrow enough for people to enter. Kwon Taek Joo, the person he had been looking for, sat hunched inside. I don''t know how long he''s been like this, his face is pale without a drop of blood, even his cold breath of white smoke is weak. Zhenya ran over and grabbed his arm. It''s not an illusion. Only then did the breath he had been holding come out chaotically. "Ha ha." Zhenya urgently checked Kwon Taek Joo''s breathing and pulse. It was difficult to tell how much Kwon Taek Joo''s body temperature had dropped because his body seemed to freeze. The collar of Zhenya, who was checking his breathing by placing his ear on his chest, was gently pulled. Even though it was a very weak force, he immediately stopped all movements and looked in that direction. Kwon Taek Joo''s cold hand was pulling Zhenya''s shirt. Hand gestures are weak, as if they could break just by touching them. But why did he feel that hand was so heavy? He couldn''t take his eyes off the collar he was holding. No one told Zhenya about life. Up until now he has lived a life no different from a messenger. He took so many lives himself, and that''s all the world wanted and demanded of him. Yet this foolish man is asking him to save his life. This is absurd. But right now only he can help him. Just Zhenya. He helplessly looked at Kwon Taek Joo and supported his back. His whole body immediately collapsed without any strength and fell into his chest. "Is this how you came up with it..." He muttered as he stared endlessly at Kwon Taek Joo''s pale, bloodless face. It was a voice that contained a strange aftertaste. Zhenya then gently hugged him and slowly walked back to the villa. Steps leave much deeper footprints than steps taken alone. That step also left a deep mark on Zhenya''s chest. -- Kwon Taek Joo blinked his eyes open. It felt like his head was being weighed down. His body seemed to be boiling. The high temperature causes the eyes to melt and vision becomes confused. He could feel someone''s presence next to him, but he didn''t have the strength to open his eyes and see that face. A cold towel was placed on his forehead. A grumble was also heard. Something cool flickered outside the closed eyelids. He reached out and grabbed it. Surprised by Kwon Taek Joo''s sudden action, that existence was startled. Sear?h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Are you awake?" That was Olga''s voice. He tried to open his eyes. Olga was sitting next to the bed with a worried look on her face. What happened? Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t remember anything from the middle. The FSB''s special unit Vimpel'' suddenly entered, and while fleeing from them, he jumped off a cliff. Right after that, he even remembered that a sharp pain had passed through his body. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo exhausted his remaining strength and took refuge in a cave. Perhaps because of the bullet wound, his body temperature dropped rapidly and he gradually lost strength. It''s been a while and no one has come. There is no way to escape on your own. The wind blew stronger and stronger and visibility became increasingly blurry. It seemed that even if someone died there, the body would not be discovered unless someone made an effort to search. For the first time, Kwon Taek Joo faced complete loneliness. He thought he was used to living alone, but the thought that he might be abandoned forever made him feel helpless and scared. It is said that when the body is weak, the mind is also weak. Seeing him alive and healthy like this, it seemed like he was discovered before his death. Kwon Taek Joo tried to lift his upper body, but half of his body was stiff. When he stopped with a groan, Olga quickly put Kwon Taek Joo down. His condition got worse so he lay down again. It appeared he had been hit in the side. "You were unconscious for quite a while, you know that?" Olga sighed and asked. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head. After losing consciousness, all his senses became dull and he could not even notice the passage of time. He didn''t even know how Kwon Taek Joo was brought to this place. It''s impossible with Olga''s power alone, so someone else must have helped. Olga did not explain in detail what had happened. It is important for physically and mentally exhausted patients to get absolute rest. She soaked a towel in water and wrung it dry. "You''re sweating a lot and have a high fever, so you might need to clean yourself up a bit. Are you okay with that?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded and said, "Thank you." It was uncomfortable because his whole body was drenched in sweat, and the gunshot wound made it difficult to bathe for the time being. Olga carefully lifted the blanket that Kwon Taek Joo was covering. At that moment, someone grabbed her arm. He also snatched the towel he was holding in her hand. It''s Zhenya. He signaled Olga, who was staring at him, to stop and go out. Olga hesitated with worried eyes. If a duel breaks out between the two of them again, this time Kwon Taek Joo won''t be able to survive. Zhenya spoke up while he was still hesitant. "Get out." The voice was calm but enough to feel the pressure. Olga reluctantly got up and left the bedroom, leaving the door cracked in case of emergency. "..." "..." Two eves met. This was actually the first face-to-face meeting after the quarrel, but the hostility, resentment and antipathy towards each other had subsided. After all the fuss, that''s a good thing. However, Kwon Taek Joo looked quite tired. He didn''t even have the energy to compete with Zhenya. Zhenya pulled the blanket away without saying a word. Cool air rushes into Kwon Taek Joo''s hot body. He shivered coldly. Zhenya looked intently at Kwon Taek Joo and then raised one hand. He was suddenly startled and reached out his hand, Our eyes met again. The usual Zhenya would completely change his expression, but today he showed patience and withdrew his hand. Then he gently wiped his sweaty skin with a damp cloth. At first, just touching the towel gave Kwon Taek Joo goosebumps, but after a while he got used to it. Furthermore, Zhenya only focused on wiping his body and remained silent. The guy delicately wiped each finger and then all the way to the inside of his armpit. Kwon Taek Joo quickly felt comfortable and refreshed, but he also felt embarrassed because every corner of his body was being scrutinized so intently. Just because you''re a patient and you''re being cared for, it seems like your private parts are being exposed. Zhenya moistened the towel again and placed it on his neck. Kwon Taek Joo frowned at the sudden temperature difference. After waiting for a while, Zhenya gently wiped his bandaged neck and chin. The collarbone is straight and the chest mound is also carefully touched as if tracing a trace. His aching body immediately felt refreshed. Kwon Taek Joo freely entrusted himself as if forgetting that the other person was Zhenya. Finally, he pulled the blanket covering his back. Kwon Taek Joo is completely naked. The fact that he wasn''t even wearing underwear made him cringe, but he didn''t show it. There was no reason to be ashamed as Zhenya had seen everything he could see. Zhenya wiped Kwon Taek Joo''s abdomen and thighs in turn, then thoroughly cleaned the groin, genitals and perineum. His testicles shrank when they touched the cold towel. Zhenya, who was often sarcastic and said vulgar things, remained silent. He kept his mouth shut and just focused on what he was doing. It''s embarrassing. For some reason, this guy doesn''t seem like the person Kwon Taek Joo knew. Finally, Zhenya lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s knees and let the soles of his feet touch his chest. Kwon Taek Joo''s legs bent and he stretched out his hand deeply to gently wipe the back of his thighs and buttocks. "Why do you keep running away? I don''t intend to kill you." A moment later, Zhenya opened his mouth. That tone seemed to secretly reveal the concerns that had been cherished for so long. Kwon Taek Joo did not answer immediately. He just stared at the guy''s face. It was strange that he suddenly asked such a question. Did he really ask because he didn''t know? Zhenya immediately faced Kwon Taek Joo. To the man who was silently waiting for an answer, he replied indifferently. "Because there''s no reason for me to stay here." His voice was calm, not agitated. From the beginning, he did not come to this place voluntarily. From that moment on, this island was like a prison for Kwon Taek Joo. Trying to escape was not simply about Zhenya, he just had no desire to stay here. Is he not satisfied with the answer? Zhenya stopped and silently looked at Kwon Taek Joo. He did not frown, nor did he have any obvious change in expression. But for some reason, that face resembles the face of the hurt child that Kwon Taek Joo saw in his dream. It seemed like he did something really bad. He couldn''t help but feel heavy at the gaze of the boy in front of him who couldn''t avoid it even for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo turned his face away, avoiding gazes, then lowered his feet. The conversation was interrupted and a persistent silence prevailed. The two of them don''t talk often, so there''s no reason to be awkward even now. But the longer the silence lasted, the more uncomfortable Kwon Taek Joo felt. A moment later, Zhenya stood up. Kwon Taek Joo was unconsciously tense but he did not pose any danger. All he did was put the towel he was holding on the table. The man who was just about to leave suddenly spoke. "Then leave." Chapter 45 - 3.15 Lonely Koshichei 6 Chapter 45: 3.15 Lonely Koshichei 6Kwon Taek Joo woke up after a long sleep. He had been moaning non-stop so not only his mouth but also his throat was dry. He didn''t know how much time had passed, but the night already seemed very late. It seemed like there was a contrabass sound in his sleep, but when Kwon Taek Joo opened his eyes, the surroundings were quiet. Is even that a dream? Kwon Taek Joo got out of bed and went out. The pain in his hip was still throbbing but he endured it. He went into the kitchen and soothed his dry throat. The gentle water seemed to flow through every corner of the body, making the dizzy head clearly alert. He took a moment to catch his breath and looked out the window. His eyes looked around superficially and then accidentally fixed themselves on one place. He thought it was a reflected light, but Zhenya was sitting outside the mansion. What is he doing there this late at night? Kwon Taek Joo took a sip of water and approached the window. Then he openly admired Zhenya. Surprisingly, the guy didn''t do anything. He just sat there without lighting a fire. Where he was headed there was only a deserted snow field. Even the size of a guy so big it scared him felt insignificant before Mother Nature. Is it because of the contrast effect? His eyes followed the back of the guy sitting absent-mindedly. There was no way a monster would feel lonely, but his back looked especially lonely right now. In the end, who is sympathizing with whom? Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and was about to turn away but he suddenly looked back. The two eyes inevitably met. Does that kid have eyes in the back of his head? His heart beat wildly with surprise. Contrary to expectations, Zhenya did not take any action. He just quietly looked at Kwon Taek Joo who was confused. Those eyes were so straightforward and intense that he didn''t know what he was embarrassed about. Unable to just stand still like that, Kwon Taek Joo turned away. The place Kwon Taek Joo headed was not the bedroom but the dressing room. What the hell are you doing this late at night? Kwon Taek Joo took out his jacket and put it on while grumbling. He found a bottle of Macallan in the kitchen and took it out with him. Zhenya turned his head at the sound of the door opening. He seemed surprised to see Kwon Taek Joo. "I brought a delicious drink." He waved the bottle towards Zhenya, who had been looking at him blankly all this time. Then he walked over and sat down next to him with a soft groan. The hip injury is still very painful. Zhenya still didn''t say anything until then, and Kwon Taek Joo''s stare that seemed like it was about to pierce through didn''t stop either. Without a glass, he opened the bottle of Macallan and drank the wine from the bottle. Alcohol is not good for gunshot wounds, but it seems that drinking alcohol eases the pain. After taking a sip, he handed the bottle to Zhenya. Without hesitation, he put his lips to the glossy mouth of the bottle. After giving and receiving two more times, Kwon Taek Joo was the one to start the conversation. "I ask this because I''m really curious, why did you buy an island like this?" "It''s nice, it''s quiet and there''s nothing." Is that so? Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the bottle with a disapproving look on his face. I''ve known for a long time, but his taste is truly quite special. "Hey kid, don''t you have any friends?" Zhenya stared at Kwon Taek Joo without answering the next question. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head confidently. "There''s no such thing" "What about you?" "I don''t know what you mean. I''m of extremely normal standards. When I want to drink, there are plenty of people for me to call. Just because of work, I have to hide a lot of things so I can''t meet them often." Kwon Taek Joo added. "I also have a mother who can''t even sleep because he''s worried about me." The words made him feel a little guilty. However, not much has changed on Zhenya''s face. Of course. He licked his lips again and asked again. "Anyway, you''re a special kid. Is it fun to play alone like this?" "It''s not fun. It''s familiar." The answer didn''t seem pathetic or pitiful at all, but Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t be as sarcastic as before. He looked into Zhenya''s face for a moment. Surely many people have told him to keep his mouth shut and be quiet like now. When he is assertive and acts cocky, his words are quite eloquent, like when he brags about the technology that worked on the Trans-Siberian Train. He suddenly reached out his hand. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s hand that was suddenly approaching. Just then, his finger touched the side of Zhenya''s forehead. That was the position that had been injured not long ago. A mischievous smile spread across his always straightforward face. "How many people are you planning to seduce?" Zhenya grabbed his hand and brought it to his mouth to bite it. Kwon Taek Joo''s body was pushed continuously and fell backwards on the soft thick snow behind him. The black night sky filled his vision. The countless stars embroidered on it seemed to be about to fall. This is the first time Kwon Taek Joo has seen the stars even though he has been here for many days. "Oh.." Kwon Taek Joo bewilderedly looked up into the air and then pointed into the void. A curtain of blue-violet light fluttered like a curtain. It''s Aurora. He was completely fascinated by the wonderful scene that the vast nature brought. No matter which art museum you go to, no work will surpass the night sky. How long has it been? Zhenya climbed on top of him and blocked his view. The two people''s eyes were close. Maybe he was drunk, or he still hadn''t regained his composure, but Kwon Taek Joo just stared at Zhenya without avoiding it. Kwon Taek Joo''s blue eyes filled with images expressed pure desire. Impossible. Zhenya''s face slowly approached before he realized it. His lips first touched his chin, then pressed against the bridge of his nose and then pressed against his forehead. He accidentally closed his eyes. The man removed his lips and looked down at Kwon Taek Joo. Zhenya gently ran her thumb on his neck, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyelashes trembled because of the tickle. That must be the reason why his breathing was shaky and unstable. Then Zhenya''s face returned as Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even think about avoiding it, but the moment his breath touched his philtrum, Kwon Taek Joo suddenly came to his senses. Almost halfway, their lips almost touched each other. He turned his head to the side so Zhenya''s lips fell on his pointed chin. Zhenya no longer forcibly held Kwon Taek Joo''s face like before, he just didn''t say a word but looked straight at one side of that indifferent face. Kwon Taek Joo''s mood became uncomfortable, he quickly pushed his chest and sat up. "I''m not doing that with you." He drew clear boundaries and left before the atmosphere became more ambiguous. A stinging look followed his back, but Kwon Taek Joo pretended not to know. As soon as he entered the villa, he tore his hair and tortured himself. He was almost completely carried away. Even the excuse that it was due to being drunk, or just to see what would happen, didn''t comfort him one bit. No matter how strongly humans are animals influenced by the environment, this isn''t true. It was no one else but Zhenya who raped, assaulted and attempted to kill him so many times. Apparently he had gone crazy from being left in the snow-covered space for so long. Kwon Taek Joo needs to leave this place before the situation gets worse. -- "Go home." Zhenya gave Olga one-sided orders during breakfast. "Just a few more days, okay? Just two days." "No." Zhenya refused immediately. A tough face shows there is no room for compromise. Olga reluctantly nodded, her face sullenly digging her spoon into the bowl of fish soup. If Olga leaves, only Kwon Taek Joo and Zhenya will remain on the island. He sighed deeply. Then Olga looked at him slyly, saying "Would you be sorry if I went?" Zhenya''s eyes followed. "Goodbye." Olga pouted again indifferently and grumbled that he took care of Kwon Taek Joo in vain. Even after that, Zhenya''s persistent gaze did not leave. Kwon Taek Joo ignored him and silently ate his food. He went up to Olga''s room after dinner. There was nothing to do, so Kwon Taek Joo intended to follow her to borrow the book, but he ordered him to do one thing after another before he realized it. Olga used the excuse that the helicopter was coming and threw the things to Kwon Taek Joo as soon as he picked them up. Once inserted, the bag cannot be closed. While trying to stuff the outer clothes into the bag, something suddenly caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. He secretly observed Olga''s eyes. She busied herself with arranging the clothes he was supposed to wear. Kwon Taek Joo hid the thing in his hand that was in his pocket. "Are you all done?" Olga suddenly looked back. "Yes," he said and closed her bag. "What time will the helicopter arrive?" "About thirty minutes." "Is that so? Then I''ll take this out." Kwon Taek Joo picked up a suitcase that looked like it was about to explode and placed it in front of the stairs. Then he went straight to the basement. Boxes of benzene used for trimming fur are piled up in the warehouse. He grabbed one of them and went into the bathroom. He locked the door tightly. His heart began to beat violently. Kwon Taek Joo tried to escape countless times, but failed every time. But maybe this time will be different. At least it''s more hopeful than other times. His fingertips tingled with excitement and anticipation. He put the benzene on the floor and took out a small bottle from his pocket. It was taken from Olga''s bag. The main ingredient in prescription medications for angina is nitroglycerin, which helps dilate blood vessels. Nitroglycerin can explode even when dissolved in ethanol or benzene. For that reason, it is also a popular drug used by homemade bomb makers. Kwon Taek Joo took all the pills out of the bottle and crushed them finely, then carefully poured the powder into the glass bottle containing benzene. He gently stirred with the handle of the toothbrush and waited for the powder to completely dissolve. The finished homemade bomb was placed at the entrance to the roof. When Kwon Taek Joo finished all the work, he heard the sound of the propeller spinning. A helicopter was also seen approaching in the distance. As if nothing had happened, he went down to the second floor and ran into Olga. "It seems like it''s almost here." To avoid suspicion, Kwon Taek Joo spoke first. Olga nodded and got down from the suitcase he was sitting on. "It seems like that person didn''t want to send me off." "What do you expect from that bastard? Let''s go." Kwon Taek Joo walked up the stairs carrying Olga''s suitcase. She went down the stairs where Zhenya was and shouted, "I''m leaving" and followed Kwon Taek Joo. Just as the two reached the entrance to the roof, Kwon Taek Joo, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped walking. He bent down as if to see if anything had fallen to the floor. "What''s going on?" "I owe you this time." "Huh? What?" Olga gasped in confusion. At the same time, her trunk fell down the stairs. Zhenya was adjusting the contrabass when he suddenly raised his head because of a sudden noise from upstairs. Apparently Olga dropped something while walking around. There couldn''t be a second of quiet even when he was about to leave. He stood up and went to the window. Looking outside, he saw a helicopter hovering in the air. It seemed like I had been arriving for a while but somehow it still hadn''t landed and continued to wander in the sky. Zhenya looked at it without any doubt then suddenly frowned. An ominous feeling ran down his spine, he immediately grabbed the shotgun hanging on the wall and ran up the stairs Olga''s suitcase fell to the second floor. Something is rattling inside. "Taek Joo." Zhenya mumbled like a groan and rushed to the roof. When he threw open the door, Kwon Taek Joo was holding Olga hostage, in his hand was a large bottle of benzene. "Don''t come close!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted with high alert. Zhenya ignored it and approached, he lifted the benzene bottle. "Stop. If you take another step I''ll blow it." Kwon Taek Joo wrinkled his nose in warning again. Even so, what you''re holding is just benzene used for fur care, what kind of threat is that? After a moment, a quick calculation was made in Zhenya''s head. Olga had angina and a large dose of benzene. These facts were combined to arrive at the conclusion that it was a ''nitroglycerin bomb''. If it falls and breaks, the entire roof will be blown off. Not only Zhenya and Olga, but also Kwon Taek Joo''s life, and death cannot be guaranteed. Zhenya quietly took a breath. He gritted his molars to try to control the emotions rising in his heart and then reached out towards Kwon Taek Joo. "Come here." Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and took a step back. As if wanting to show his determination, he put all his strength into making the hand holding the benzene bottle turn white. What the hell? Zhenya''s eyebrows furrowed. He closed the distance as if he was going to test it. Immediately after that, Kwon Taek Joo retreated and did not hesitate to raise the bottle. Looking at his resolute expression, the words he just said did not seem like a useless show off. Regardless of whether anyone was injured or not, it was enough if he could overpower Kwon Taek Joo, but Zhenya couldn''t get any closer. He stopped again. Boiling anger welled up. "Damn it, come here!" Even when urged. Kwon Taek Joo still shook his head firmly. Soon the ladder descended from the helicopter. Zhenya''s eyes wavered. The moment Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the ladder, something was cut off in his head. His body temperature dropped in an instant. As if forgetting Kwon Taek Joo''s warning, Zhenya did not hesitate to rush straight for the helicopter. A bottle of benzene flew. At that moment, it seemed as if the air around him had been sucked in and condensed. An explosion occurred immediately afterward. The entire floor shook and every corner of the building cracked. One side of the wall was completely destroyed. Zhenya also couldn''t stand the pressure and fell down. His back hit the wall and felt like it was about to break. His skin was also scratched from debris flying from all directions. A beeping, ringing sound rang in his ears. Blood flowed from his head, dying Zhenya''s vision red. He lifted his tattered body up and through the smoke and dust. The front of the roof has collapsed to the point that its original shape is unrecognizable. When Zhenya hurriedly looked around, the helicopter was flying in the distance, Olga and Taek Joo holding her standing on the hanging ladder. Zhenya looked around with the thought of chasing after him, but he didn''t have any to. His helicopter sank deep into the sea a few days ago. He could call another helicopter, but Taek Joo wouldn''t wait until then. Even as he stood there helpless. Taek Joo continued to drift far into the sky, never once looking back sea??h th§× ¦Çov§×lFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "TAEK JOO!" A desperate roar rang out in the distance. -- The helicopter carrying Olga and Taek Joo arrived in the suburbs of Moscow. The two walked down with calm expressions as if nothing had happened. "What will you do when you return to Korea?" "There''s still a lot to do. The mission must be completed, and I personally have some things to figure out. I''ll be busy for a while." Olga nodded and asked to shake hands first. A bit of regret appeared on her face. Taek Joo gently held her hand that was reaching out in front of her. Olga shook hands and then looked back at the helicopter. The pilot brought a small bag and gave it to Taek Joo. "What''s wrong?" "I think you''ll need it to return home. Thank you for saving my life twice." In the bag was cash, a neat new shirt and a Colt. Taek Joo needs a fake passport and money to leave Russia. Olga''s support was happily accepted. "Thank you for helping me earlier." "I didn''t help you. I just sat still because I didn''t want to get hurt" "If you want to run away, you have a gun. Just shoot a shot and you''re done." "It''s not impossible, but if I do that then I''ll really die with that person." Olga smiled mischievously. A plane was descending in front of the runway and passed over the two people''s heads. Olga looked up at the plane and suddenly said to herself. "As a result, everything ended up just like Koshichei''s story." The situation of Taek Joo, who finally ran away from Zhenya, is like the beauty who found and destroyed Koshichei''s heart and escaped from his castle. Koshichei''s story always ends there. When the plane''s shadow disappeared, he said, "Let''s go now." Taek Joo looked at Olga for a moment then turned away without hesitation. Olga''s face looked a little bitter as he watched him stride away. She thought of Zhenya, who still called Taek Joo''s name even though his head was injured and bleeding. It was as if he had lost everything. This is the first time Zhenya had made such a face. Even when Anastasia was lost, he didn''t seem that sad. Her shocked heart at that time still couldn''t calm down. If Taek Joo hadn''t brought the bomb at that time, would the outcome have been different if Zhenya had dared to shoot him with a shotgun. Olga muttered, staring at Taek Joo who was walking far away. "Koshichei''s weakness is not his hidden heart." Another plane passed over her head. Buried in the hum of the engine, the added words faded without a trace. "But love, Taek Joo." Chapter 46 - 3.16 Hide and Seek Chapter 46: 3.16 Hide and Seek"Eh? What''s this?" Yoon Jong Woo was about to log into the game and suddenly frowned. When he entered his ID and password and clicked the Login button, an error message appeared indicating that he had already logged in before. He tried closing and reopening the active window, but the result was still the same. If it wasn''t for a server error, his ID would definitely have been stolen by someone else. Yoon Jong Woo felt this a long time ago. Every time he logged in, his level changed subtly and some items were no longer in stock. Yoon Jong Woo simply thought that there might have been some event that he didn''t know about, but it seemed like today he caught that tail. Dare to hack a national intelligence officer? I don''t know whose name it is, it''s really big. "You bastard, you touched the wrong person." Yoon Jong Woo entered a different ID to access the game. It was an ID he created just to register for the event and just left it unused. That''s why he didn''t have anything other than the basic items. Yoon Jong Woo looked for the old ID in the user search window, and the thief''s location was immediately revealed. Entered the server. The thief is there preparing for a game that is about to start. Yoon Jong Woo was talking to him but other users urged him to quickly end the wait. Without hesitation, Yoon Jong Woo pressed the fight button. Soon the game started. A vivid desktop reminiscent of a real battlefield fills before your eyes. The sound of gunfire echoed through the headphones as if it were real. In the place where they went crazy killing each other, Yoon Jon Woo only chased the thief. The guy naturally got caught up in the game and only chose high-level users who were immersed in the massacre of civilians to shoot. It''s magical, it''s a hundred hits. "Ahh! I purposely didn''t use it and saved it." Yoon Jong Woo, who was aiming at him, shouted in surprise. The item that the thief just threw out is a rare item that is difficult to obtain even with cash. The treasure he had carefully stored without daring to use it even once was being proudly squandered by that bastard. He couldn''t sit still any longer. Yoon Jong Woo registered for the 1:1 match with a very serious expression. Forgetting the fact that the ID the other person was using was his, he decided to sacrifice the new cards. Then the thief answered. >Don''t play tricks, go out there and play. Yoon Jong Woo was speechless so he gasped. He signed up to fight again. Rejected again. He registered again. Rejected immediately again. "This bastard." S§×ar?h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Yoon Jong Woo kept clinging to him until he accepted. Then the thief suddenly agreed to the confrontation. Suddenly, he was confused again. As soon as the match started, the two rushedd at each other. However, there is one thing that Yoon Jong Woo overlooked. The ID, which he had accumulated experience by dividing his time with great difficulty, was no longer his. Yoon Jong Woo is just an insignificant and powerless low-level user. He used up all his flamboyant skills and launched all kinds of attacks, but the thief didn''t suffer a single wound. On the other hand, as soon as his bullet passed by, his health meter dropped sharply. Yoon Jong Woo stood up mid-sentence, pounding the keyboard and mouse angrily. "Ahh! Die!" Opponents are equipped with special armor so they will not take damage from most attacks. The problem was that all of Yoon Jong Woo''s firepower was put into that attack. Even when he aimed straight and pulled the trigger, his opponent did not receive a single scratch. He decided to step out of the armor, but that only affected Yoon Jong Woo''s life. In a dilemma, the thief made the decisive blow. His vision was turned upside down when Yoon Jong Woo was hit in the head by a bullet. "No way! Ahh!" Yoon Jong Woo grabbed the screen and shouted, but the game was over. Damned. He cursed while looking for the ID that the thief had stolen. But he has already logged out. Unable to scream in the middle of the night, Yoon Jong Woo could only grab his hair and kick his legs in anger. It wasn''t until a long time later that Yoon Jong Woo discovered that the message had not been read. The sender was the thief from earlier. He immediately checked the content. There is only a place and time written on it without any mention. It''s ridiculous. The time he specified was 30 minutes later, and the location was a computer room in Incheon. He even friendly wrote down his seat number. If Yoon Jong Woo works hard from now on, he will be able to arrive on time. Yoon Jong Woo, who was in a rage, took his coat and left the house. -- The lighting in the PC room is designed to be quite dim as if to increase concentration. Because it was not rush hour, there were many empty seats. The part-time student working at the counter also fell asleep and did not notice Yoon Jong Woo''s appearance. He narrowed his eyes and walked through the dark room. Yoon Jong Woo ran for nearly 30 minutes with fighting spirit, but when he arrived, his heart was pounding. Yoon Jong Woo took a deep breath and moved to the 59th chair that the thief gave him. After passing the 30th and 40th rows and entering the 50th row, his heart beat so fiercely that it seemed like it wanted to jump out of his chest. Yoon Jong Woo walked carefully and finally reached seat number 59. Yoon Jong Woo''s face showed a trace of disappointment, because seat 59 was empty. The damn thief called Yoon Jong Woo here and then ran away? Maybe he was chatting somewhere in the store. Yoon Jong Woo quickly looked around. No one caught my eye, no one stood out. Wasn''t it enough to get beaten up in the game, but now you''re being played properly by him like this? "Ah, you bastard!" Yoon Jong Woo clenched his fists in anger, gritting his teeth and struggling wildly, causing other computer users to also look at that soundless scream. Just like that, Yoon Jong Woo received everyone''s attention and reduced his anger. He accidentally touched a nearby computer screen, the power saving mode was turned off and the screen turned on. It''s suspicious because eye-catching writing fills the screen. "Sit down." What game is this again? Yoon Jong Woo was extremely uncomfortable but sat down quietly. He pretended to calmly look around and wondered if this was a trick of the thief, but on the one hand he was also curious about what trick he was planning to play. However, even after waiting for a long time, the thief still did not appear. Other PC users are just immersed in their games. Are we playing together again? A fire burned in Yoon Jong Woo''s heart. You have to let him know who he touched. Yoon Jong Woo will find this bastard no matter what the tricks or methods are. He gritted his teeth and stood up from his seat. At that moment someone suddenly cried out. "A mature person is a wise person." How does that voice sound so familiar? Yoon Jong Woo flinched and looked at the seat next to him. Immediately the opponent also slowly lifted his back away from the partition. Yoon Jong Woo''s eyes widened. "Senior!" "Take it easy, you bastard." Kwon Taek Joo panicked and blocked Yoon Jong Woo''s mouth and carefully observed the surrounding movements. Yoon Jong Woo also suddenly looked around after panicking. Kwon Taek Joo only released him after making sure he was safe. "What happened? I thought senior was dead!" "Aren''t you looking forward to that?" "What are you talking about? I worry about my senior day and night." "Playing games day and night?" "Yes. Playing games day and night. Ah, I told you that''s not true, really!" Yoon Jong Woo, who was unconsciously drawn, quickly corrected his words. His face almost looked like he wanted to cry. Kwon Taek Joo smiled and nodded telling him to follow and stood up first. Yoon Jong Woo asked in a loud voice as he went down the narrow and steep stairs. "But was the thief just now senior?" "ID cherryboy, password pure1004@. Isn''t it time to change it? Kwon Taek Joo admitted frankly. It''s shameless to openly steal someone else''s ID. Yoon Jong Woo was full of resentment and looked at the back of Kwon Taek Joo who was walking in front, thinking over and over again what he wanted to say if it wasn''t his senior. "What if it''s not senior?" "What?" Wondering if he accidentally mumbled what was on his mind, Yoon Jong Woo was startled and covered his mouth. "Don''t you know? I know how to read minds." Yoon Jong Woo innocently asked if it was true. Kwon Taek Joo just smiled without answering. Obviously they''re playing each other again. Why would Yoon Jong Woo himself meet a sniper like Kwon Taek Joo? How could it have to be him? Today you needlessly challenged God''s will. -- Kwon Taek Joo''s face reflected in the streetlight cannot be described in words. Everywhere you look you see bandages or band-aids. His physique is still the same, but it seems he has lost 5kg because his facial features have become sharper. Maybe he didn''t sleep well, so he had dark circles under his eyes. He''s so pitiful that Yoon Jong Woo doesn''t even feel resentment toward him anymore. Yoon Jong Woo had no way of knowing where Kwon Taek Joo was or what he was doing, as he had to keep the mission a secret even from his NIS colleagues. It was common for him to not be able to be contacted during combat, but he also wondered what he had been doing in the past few months without any news. However, Kwon Taek Joo is also the type of person who will suddenly appear and invite him to dinner, as if he just met the day before if he completes the mission safely. Yoon Jong Woo has never worried about Kwon Taek Joo''s safety. but this time it''s a little different. After Kwon Taek Joo called back from Russia, he felt uncomfortable. ''Yevgeny Vissarionovich Bogdanov'', with whom he was traveling at the time. a character for whom no official information could be found. That in itself wasn''t a good sign, but the more he knew, the more dangerous he became. He tried to tell that truth to Kwon Taek Joo, but the two lost contact. He also didn''t call back. Yoon Jong Woo reported to Chief Lim in vain but all he was told was not to worry because Kwon Taek Joo was safe. Then he put aside his thoughts and shook off his worries like an old woman. However, Kwon Tae Joo, whom he met again after a long time, did not seem to be safe. "Did you bring the car?" "Yes, over there." Yoon Jong Woo carefully opened the car door. Both sat in the driver''s seat and passenger seat respectively "Where are we going now?" "Let''s talk here." Kwon Taek Joo turned off the car engine and pulled out the memory chip from the black box. He also deleted the location information recorded on the locator. The inside of the car was dark because the headlights and interior lights were turned off. It seemed that from the outside, no one could know the presence of the people sitting inside. Kwon Taek Joo only opened his mouth after erasing all traces. "Chief didn''t say anything about me?" "Last time I was talking on the phone with my senior, the phone was disconnected and you didn''t contact me after that. I was very worried at that time, so I told the department head about the name you went with. He told me not to worry because you''re fine. Isn''t that right?" "I''m fine. I''m not saying it''s wrong because I''m not dead yet. So how''s the atmosphere at headquarters these days?" "Oh, stop talking. I really don''t have time to breathe these days. As of yesterday, I had to work nights for 3 days in a row. Why? Not long ago there were rumors that there would be large-scale personnel changes. The Blue House decided that the next head of the intelligence agency will be one of the current deputy directors at NIS." Stories like that still spread regularly. There are rumors that the current head of NIS has announced his intention to resign due to personal reasons. The head of the NIS is appointed by the president and the position is usually held by an outsider. Although it is the highest leader, to prevent excessive power, that position has only symbolic meaning. Actually, it is not irrelevant that it would be easier to manage if the position held was by someone close to the Blue House. For that reason, it is an extremely unusual move for one of the deputy directors to become NIS director. If the rumors are true, then only the employees below are tired, because each department will have to work harder to accumulate another achievement. Yoon Jong Woo''s complaint afterward is proof of that. "The department head is also very active and treats everyone like slaves." "Is there nothing else besides that?" "Let''s see. Well, here''s one. I was recently transferred to the information support team." Only then, Kwon Taek Joo, who was looking straight ahead, turned his head towards Yoon Jong Woo. "Why?", the boy shrugged indifferently. "I was originally not suitable for the investigation team. From the beginning, I did not go in that direction. When I joined headquarters, the department head promised that if the investigation team had enough people, I would be transferred to the support team. So it''s not bad at all. As expected, the support team''s job is to race against time, not take risks like in the field. Life insurance used to cost 1 million won a month, but Now there''s no need to buy half. Everything is good but.." "But what?" Yoon Jong Woo vaguely missed what he was saying. He was silent for a moment, wondering if he should continue speaking or not. He waited a moment and then continued. "I still find something strange. Our team hasn''t been staffed yet and I haven''t heard that there will be staff from another team transferring in. It''s not like I made a big mistake or anything." What a great achievement. Whether it''s a punishment or a reward, there''s no reason to transfer me to the support team right now. Or is this just an act of personnel management?" From the sounds of the complaints, there doesn''t seem to be any obvious reason. Such personnel actions are more likely to be based on the needs of superiors. "Dude, what was the last mission you took on in the investigation team? Destroy Kim Young Hee''s group in Busan, that one?" "I can''t reveal it." "Relax. Do you want to lose your life before talking?" "That''s right, that''s the case." Kwon Taek Joo heard the answer and fell into thought. Looking back, it all started right there. Immediately after arresting Kim Yeong Hee and her accomplices in Busan, Chief Lim called him over and he immediately left for Russia, Then, Yoon Jong Woo, a partner in that mission, suddenly had his personnel adjusted. There is definitely something unclear. It is impossible to transfer a gunner''s assistant without notifying the gunner. ''If considered seriously, you are not qualified for this campaign.'' ''From the beginning you were so confused, how could I feel secure in this far away place? So I''ve already found someone to help you.'' Looking back, there were many strange points. Partners are usually attached before going live. Kwon Taek Joo prefers to work alone and he will definitely refuse to work in a group, so there must be a reason for the delay in announcing the partner. Even if he had given in and they had a good reason to, the swapping of Salman and Zhenya''s photos was not a mistake at all. ''Do you think you''re hated there anyway? Did a place called the National Intelligence Service send me my photo by mistake? That never happened.'' "I have one more mission." ''That was an order from the Korean side. What the hell have you been doing in your own country? What did you do to be sent here and almost killed?'' Zhenya and Salman''s words flashed through Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. At this point, it seems like the situation isn''t just that bad. You definitely need to dig deeper into it. "How are the guys arrested in Busan?" "Ah, maybe the senior still doesn''t know. It''s a bit noisy. It was the strategy to wipe them out on our passenger ship but because there were so many hostages and even witnesses on the ship, they couldn''t just let it go quietly. Perhaps they were afraid of being held responsible later, so instead of claiming that those people were arrested by agents, they claimed that those people were armed drug smugglers and were arrested by the Coast Guard." That is normal. Civilians do not know that there are still agents in Korea today, and the government also wants to avoid social unrest as much as possible. "And Kim Young Hee drank poison right before being arrested." "Poison?" A wrinkle formed in the middle of Kwon Taek Joo''s forehead. Yoon Jong Woo nodded and said that he was dead when the police arrived. Kim Young Hee also attempted to commit suicide when he was captured by Kwon Taek Joo at that time. However, immediately after that he tied her left hand with handcuffs and hung it on the railing, and her right hand was hit by a bullet. He even stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth so he couldn''t bite her tongue. How could Kim Young Hee harm herself? "Tell me more clearly. Why is that so?" "I don''t know either. After that, the whole team was quickly mobilized. It seems the department head wrote the report on your behalf because the senior was not here." If there is no doubt, there will be no doubt. Nothing is impossible if you try to understand it by all means. And once he asked the question, Kwon Taek Joo felt everything was suspicious. He knew the situation was quite unusual, but he also didn''t know the cause. He felt like he had missed an important clue. It seems he has to reconsider from the beginning again. If so it will take time, so Kwon Taek Joo''s return to Korea will have to be kept a secret for the time being. Deep in thought, he softly called out "Jong Woo." "Yes?" "Don''t tell anyone you saw me." "Why not?" "Because there might be an arrest warrant for me in the future. If they knew you were meeting me today, you would be considered an accomplice." "Yes? What the hell did you do?" Yoon Jong Woo shouted in shock. Pupils seemed about to roll down from wide open eves. Kwon Taek Joo flicked his finger on his forehead. Yoon Jong Woo rubbed the painful area as he spoke. "Has senior really caused trouble, you wouldn''t come back here, right? You would have run away." "Yeah, right? There''s no way criminals can properly appear in front of NIS officers. Don''t you know what fear is?" Yoon Jong Woo muttered to himself and then quickly understood. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head and smiled. Yoon Jong Woo immediately understood the meaning of that smile and blushed and said not to laugh at him. That''s right, if you look at the madness in shooting games, Yoon Jong Woo is honestly the best agent in this field. Yoon Jong Woo''s phone suddenly rang. He said "Wait a minute," then checked the message he had just received. Outside the window the sky gradually brightened as dawn appeared. There were no passersby but they were still alert. "Spam is really tiring." Yoon Jong Woo quickly put his phone in his pocket. He tried to pretend to be calm, but his tone seemed to have stiffened a bit. Kwon Taek Joo just rolled his eyes to scan him once. He nervously touched the gun on his belt, then threw his gaze out the window and calmly warned. "Don''t act stupid. I don''t want to knock you out." "What? I don''t understand what senior means." "What? don''t you understand? Don''t be so obvious, kid." Yoon Jong Woo sighed deeply after being scolded as if teasing him. His shoulders, stiff with tension, also dropped. "As the senior said, an internal arrest warrant has just been issued. Please report to your superiors as soon as you contact senior." "What is the charge?" "I heard you were suspected of being an insider with a Russian intelligence agent? Didn''t you mention that guy? It''s Yevgeny Visarionovich Bogdanov." Laughter broke out, It''s absurd. The entanglement with Zhenya was completely the headquarters'' fault and Kwon Taek Joo himself went through all the hardships when he reluctantly attached himself to him, and he came back alive but they made it up like this. Of course. whether he likes it or not. accompanying him to the gathering place of important Russian figures is also a fact, so just with that situation alone. it is easy to be forced into revealing secrets. nation. He even impersonated Chief Lim to Sergei. Yoon Jong Woo doesn''t know what mission Kwon Taek Joo himself was on and there''s no other way to prove it, because Zhenya blows up the hotel and all evidence about him is destroyed. The same goes for Zhenya''s mistakenly sent photo. If Kwon Taek Joo is arrested by headquarters, all suspicions will be against him. Someone is planning. Kwon Taek Joo himself is just a horse playing around on it. When did the drama unfold? After Kwon Taek Joo was sent to Russia? Or after you arrested Kim Young Hee and his accomplices in Busan? Perhaps wiping them out was also included in the script. There are clearly two goals in the Russian campaign. Anastasia and Kwon Taek Joo himself. "What''s going on? The suspicion is an insider accusation, if this continues, it will involve the crime of revealing national secrets. Unbelievable. There is no way the senior would interact with That Russian bastard. If so, I wouldn''t have called to let you find out who he was. That would be like publicly proving that I was in contact with him, right? I wouldn''t have come back if I knew. that the arrest warrant will fall in front of you." Yoon Jong Woo didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. His trembling eyes clearly showed insecurity. As an NIS employee, he had to follow headquarters'' orders, but he seemed confused by the questions about the instructions he received. Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to briefly tell what happened in Russia. Yoon Jong Woo listened carefully then shook his head at the truth about what happened to Kwon Taek Joo and the headquarters. If identities are revealed during normal operations, the NIS will cut off support to the agent to avoid national surveillance. Even so, inside the headquarters there are still carefully considered countermeasures. However, Yoon Jong Woo had not felt such an atmosphere until now. To him, he was always worried about Kwon Tae Joo''s safety. Chief Lim still told him to relax. Something is definitely not normal. "What do you think, senior?" "I don''t know for sure. We''ll have to find out from now on." "You still don''t have any proof, okay? If you keep moving on faith like this, it''s too dangerous. If it''s true as you guess, someone at headquarters arranged this, they definitely won''t let you freedom of movement. Assuming it''s not simply an insider but revealing national secrets, they will involve the prosecutor. At that time, if they are caught, their lives will be over." "I don''t know if I''ll be arrested if I keep going like this. Someone keeps stepping on me, but I have to try until my last breath. I will first investigate again from Kim Young Hee. No matter what I think, Looks like I missed something there." "We''re done with that case, is there anything else we can investigate now?" "Maybe we don''t know. We just looked at a tree named Kim Young Hee and forgot that there was a whole forest. Maybe they threw Kim Young Hee as bait to distract us. Looking back, I caught her so easily back then." "The situation is quite similar to now. There are many suspicious points but I have no evidence. At that time, Kim Young Hee contacted Lee Cheol Jin." First, we must be suspicious of matters that have been resolved too smoothly. At that time. Kwon Taek Joo could not arrest Lee Cheol Jin and he intended to arrest him as a criminal. He planned to arrest him first and then conduct a solid investigation later, but Kwon Taek Joo didn''t have the chance to do that. He himself was sent to Russia and Yoon Jong Woo was sent to another team. "The arrest warrant alone is enough to make things difficult. If you''re careless, it''s inevitable that you''ll be arrested, and you''ll be imprisoned on all sorts of charges. However, if you''re careful, it''s still possible." Agents often compare their situation to that of a bloodhound. Despite their dedication to the country, they were cruelly abandoned when faced with a crisis. Kwon Taek Joo knew there was no other way, which was also what he was ready for when he became a special agent. But this is not an inevitable situation. It is impossible to sacrifice just for someone''s needs. Yoon Jong Woo groaned and put his head on the steering wheel. He dreams of becoming the main character in superhero movies, action movies, and shooting games. Applying to the National Intelligence Service is also part of that aspiration. However, he doesn''t know what to do when he encounters a situation like in the movie. The arrest warrant for Kwon Taek Joo has been issued. If you help him even a little, you can be accused of agreeing to help. If you are more unlucky, you will easily be accused of complicity. The most miserable moment as a civil servant is wondering between finding out the truth and silently ignoring it, and because he is human, Yoon Jong Woo has no other choice but to be shaken. However, when I think back, it was correct to obey the headquarters'' orders. There is no reason for you to put yourself in danger by falling into the trap of friendship or camaraderie. All Yoon Jong Woo has to do is follow his beliefs to live a long and leisurely life. Living healthy in the world is already too difficult, after all, other people will not be responsible for your life. Yoon Jong Woo, after continuously rationalizing his thoughts, finally spoke. "Can I help you senior?" Yoon Jong Woo betrayed his reason in pursuit of safety when his conscience spoke up. Chapter 47 - 4.1 Hide and Seek 2 Chapter 47: 4.1 Hide and Seek 2At prosecutor Seok Jae Hee''s office of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors'' Office, preparations for the trial are in full swing. This happened before the 5th trial of the case against Kim Young Hee, who had been in the US for more than 10 years and had washed her citizenship to return to work in Korea, and Lee Cheol Jin, her contact. ta. The trial is expected to end soon because Kim Young Hee, the key figure in the case, passed away during the arrest process. Because it was necessary to gradually determine Lee Cheol Jin''s punishment, prosecutor Seok thoughtfully looked at the pile of documents on the table. The prosecutor''s decision has a great influence on the sentence. The simple principle is to clearly define the crime and punish the criminal according to the severity of the crime. However, following this principle is not easy. As he was checking the precedent cases, a knock sounded on the door and Chief Kim entered. "These are the documents you were talking about." Chief Kim handed over the overseas cases that prosecutor Seok had requested and then asked if he had heard about them. Only then did he raise his eyes to look at Chief Kim. He came a little closer and whispered. "On the way here I met Park Gye Jang of the public security department. Do you know the NIS agent who investigated us last time? It seems that person is wanted." "What''s his crime?" "It seems he had an affair with a Russian intelligence agent. Probably for the crime of revealing state secrets." Prosecutor Seok also knows Kwon Taek Joo. They cooperated several months ago regarding the investigation into Kim Young Hee''s group. But because the two only met a few times, there is no basis to evaluate ''Kwon Taek Joo''s'' personality, patriotism or integrity as well as personal relationships. However, he still couldn''t understand why, after personally arresting Kim Young Hee and his accomplices, he himself was being chased for leaking national secrets "Tell me more." "I didn''t hear it very well. Kim Young Hee was arrested in Busan and Kwon Taek Joo immediately left for Russia. He applied for leave for his mother''s birthday to the NIS, and then even disguised his identity. But having an arrest warrant shows that there is definitely evidence of him spying in Russia, right?" Come to think of it, Prosecutor Seok never met Kwon Taek Joo after the case ended. All required documents are received directly from NIS. Inherently, litigants in security cases are often unexpected characters. Kwon Taek Joo is no exception. However, Prosecutor Seok was even more curious and suspicious about what national secret he was selling so hastily. A knock on the door rang out again. Because he didn''t have an appointment with anyone, Prosecutor Seok looked at Chief Kim with skepticism. Chief Kim shrugged as if he didn''t know who it was. "Come in." The door opens upon approval. "Hello", the face of the person standing outside the door looked quite familiar. Perhaps because he was talking about Kwon Taek Joo, Prosecutor Seok remembered clearly that it was Yoon Jong Woo, a junior who often met with Kwon Taek Joo. Ah yes. Hello. But why did you come here?" "You''re probably busy preparing for the trial, but I ventured here because I have something to ask." "Is that so? Come in." Even though he was invited in, Yoon Jong Woo continued to hesitate outside the door. Prosecutor Seok glanced at Chief Kim with a confused expression, as if Yoon Jong Woo wanted to talk privately. Prosecutor Seok immediately stood up and put on his coat. There was still a mountain of work to do, but he couldn''t send away someone who had just come to visit. "I''ll be back within 30 minutes." After informing Chief Kim, Prosecutor Seok left the office with Yoon Jong Woo. -- The two entered a coffee shop near the prosecutor''s office. It was quite late in the morning so there were very few people. Even so, Yoon Jong Woo still decided to choose a seat inside. His very alert attitude towards his surroundings made Prosecutor Seok more curious about the reason he came. He asked first while drinking water. "Now tell me. What''s wrong?" "I heard that Kim Young Hee committed suicide." Prosecutor Seok tilted his head at Yoon Jong Woo''s first words. Kim Young Hee passed away less than three months ago. The person in charge of the investigation like Yoon Jong Woo cannot help but know this. However, he still calmly nodded and wondered why he mentioned the old story. "Yes. You also know that she died during her capture. When the Coast Guard arrived at the ferry, she was already dead." "On what basis do you conclude that Kim Young Hee''s death was suicide?" "The autopsy results showed that Kim Young Hee used force to hit her left molar right before she died. There was Cyanide in that molar. Perhaps they put Cyanide in her teeth to commit suicide in case of another accident." "What about handkerchiefs?" "Handkerchiefs?" "Kwon Taek Joo said he stuffed a handkerchief in Kim Young Hee''s mouth to prevent self-harm. There was a gunshot wound on her right arm so it was almost impossible to use, and her Her left hand is bent back and tied to the railing, so it will be difficult for her to pull the handkerchief out of her mouth herself. Her mouth is also tightly stuck so she probably won''t be able to bite her molars." "We have not received any reports of handkerchiefs being found at the scene." Yoon Jong Woo''s face stiffened. Prosecutor Seok''s face also became serious. As Yoon Jong Woo said, if Kim Young Hee couldn''t move voluntarily and was gagged, and if she was alive until Kwon Taek Joo stayed on the ferry, then how did she try to commit suicide and when? That information was not shown in the CCTV footage obtained from the scene. There is only one possibility to infer, and that is the existence of a third party. Between the time Kwon Taek Joo chased Lee Cheol Jin until the coast guard arrived, there was still a small gap of time. It was only a few minutes, but it was enough time to put Kim Young Hee to death. Of course this is just a hypothesis and requires evidence to verify before drawing clear conclusions. This also refers to the need to determine that Kim Young Hee is not capable of committing suicide under Kwon Taek Joo''s certain measures. "So now you''re saying there''s a possibility that Kim Young Hee was murdered?" "I think we need to check again. The handkerchief disappeared unexpectedly, Kim Young Hee died right before being arrested and the fact that what she stole was top secret data cannot be accessed unless it''s a high-ranking official. I feel a bit confused." "That document was provided to Kim Young Hee by a military officer who had a relationship with her, is that what you mean? He also received a summons and jumped to his death so he couldn''t have gotten it. Considering that both were spies, the act of trying to commit suicide after failing in combat is not incomprehensible." "Um. So have you seen that ring?" "What ring are you talking about?" "Wasn''t Kim Young Hee wearing a ring?" "No. There are no reports of that either." Whether it was the handkerchief or the ring, it was a story that Prosecutor Seok was completely unaware of. The trial took place without such elements from the beginning. If Yoon Jong Woo''s words are true, then the trials up to this point are all in vain. "So what do you mean.." "What if someone is manipulating this case?" "Manipulating? You mean the defendant was falsely accused?" "No. That''s not the case, but there could be other people involved in the case. The dead military officer''s statement that he had nothing to do with the operation could be true. Could there be anyone?" Yoon Jong Woo constantly hinted at new possibilities. Exactly close to a conspiracy theory. Prosecutor Seok also thought that the timing of this case was very delicate. Kim Young Hee, who had hidden her identity for many years, suddenly tried to reach out too hastily. Just two months after the official investigation began, a military officer suspected of being an insider committed suicide, and she also made an extreme choice. Except for Lee Cheol Jin, all the key figures in the case have disappeared. However difficult it may be, right now it is just a fantasy without reality, as if something happened without physical evidence. "That''s right, although the truth is unique, each person has a different relationship and perspective, so dozens or hundreds of different theories can appear. The story of the handkerchief or the ring disappearing from the scene is incontrovertible. After all, it''s just someone''s one-sided argument. If you need my help, please come with clearer evidence. I will try to help within my ability." Prosecutor Seok draws a clear line. In the trial of Lee Cheol Jin that will take place in the next few days, before that if Yoon Jong Woo presents convincing evidence, all the time and effort so far will be wasted but Prosecutor Seok will still clarify the truth. But otherwise he could never have agreed. Yoon Jong Woo nodded as if he understood, his face also looked tired and unhappy. "If there''s nothing left to say, I''ll go first." Prosecutor Seok immediately stood up. Yoon Jong Woo quickly stood up and nodded. For some reason, Prosecutor Seok silently nodded to Yoon Jong Woo and then strode towards him instead of towards the door. He passed by Yoon Jong Woo, who was watching suspiciously, and went to the chair behind him. A hooded man was sitting there. He bowed his head and his face was almost invisible, but Prosecutor Seok still started talking without hesitation. "I heard that an arrest warrant was issued not long ago. I haven''t received an official request for cooperation yet so I''ll let it go this time. But the next time we meet I won''t have a choice. other than arresting you. Personally, I hope that never happens." Prosecutor Seok warned in a low, low voice. There was no response from the man. Prosecutor Seok looked down at the man for a moment then turned away and left the cafe. Yoon Jong Woo sat down on the chair. "Senior, it seems you''ve been discovered." Yoon Jong Woo said while turning his head to look back. The man sitting with his back to him is none other than Kwon Taek Joo. Although Prosecutor Seok soon recognized him, he refused to arrest him. It was as if Prosecutor Seok agreed with Yoon Jong Woo''s questions, or Kwon Taek Joo''s questions to be exact. As long as physical evidence is secure, the Prosecutor will always act according to standards. Of course, no matter whose request, Kwon Taek Joo still needs evidence to prove his innocence. "First you go back to headquarters. Nothing good will come of it if you keep hanging around with a wanted person like me." "What about senior? If you''re suddenly discovered." He lightly slapped Yoon Jong Woo''s pale face. Blood circulates quickly, making the whole face hot. Yoon Jong Woo clenched his jaw and shouted "Ahh!" when he felt Kwon Taek Joo''s hand on his face. "Just worry about yourself, I''ll find a way to live my own way." Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the hard-working junior''s nape and comforted him, but Yoon Jong Woo was still somber. -- Kwon Taek Joo''s mother stood at the sink with a confused look on her face. The rice in the pot was mushy. She was absent-minded for several hours while cooking with the thought of feeding her son. She suddenly calmed down and then moved her hand mechanically again. Then, with many thoughts, she hurried into the living room. The phone was being charged and a text message had just arrived. Her hands trembled as she checked the message she had just received. However, it was spam, not the contact she had been waiting for so long. For more than three months, she didn''t know whether her only son was alive or dead. She was frustrated for a moment then suddenly relaxed and stood up. She quickly grabbed a random coat and hurried out of the house. Each of her feet wears two shoes from two different pairs. She passed by without hearing the neighbors'' greetings. She didn''t even realize someone was watching her. A while later, the place where Kwon Taek Joo''s mother arrived was a nearby police station. The police were confused as soon as she appeared. A police patrol who was monitoring the situation nearby approached. "Have you found my son?" Kwon Taek Joo''s mother desperately grabbed the policeman''s arm. He just smiled faintly at this repeating situation, then said, "Let''s sit down here for a moment" and led her to a nearby table. Another police officer who was following the story also brought a cup of warm water. However, Kwon Taek Joo''s mother still looked at the two of them with despair in her eyes, looking confused and constantly muttering. "Have you found my son?" "Ah, about that.. We are also working on it. However, as I said last time, in cases where adults disappear without contact, we usually focus on the aspect of leaving voluntarily rather than being lost. Especially since your son.." "It''s not like that! He called every day. No matter what happened, no matter how late, I always answered. He''s not the kind of person who disappears without a word like that!" "Yes, of course. But, ma''am, your son didn''t say anything honest to you. The community center where your son works said that there is no such employee and Even after searching the list of local officials, there was no one with the same name. You''ve seen this too, right?" The police officer calmly persuaded but Kwon Taek Joo''s mother repeatedly denied that such a thing could ever happen. S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "There must be something wrong. Something bad must have happened. We can track the phone''s location. I don''t know if the phone will turn back on at this time. Hurry up, try it. Hurry up!" "Ma''am, please calm down. First of all, drink water." "You said you would find my son! Hurry up! Find my son!" The water in the glass splashed out with excitement. The police officer grabbed both of her arms to avoid unwanted injuries, but Kwon Taek Joo''s mother continued to move frantically. The police officers who were resisting were pushed away and their nails were scratched and injured. A senior police officer looked at the scene displeased and then he approached. He then confidently presented a printed piece of paper to Kwon Taek Joo''s mother, who was still in a panic. "Ma''am, look at this. Is this your son?" Kwon Taek Joo''s mother accidentally looked at the photo paper and opened her eyes wide. She shook off the policeman''s hand holding her and grabbed the printout in a split second. The printing condition isn''t very good but it''s definitely a photo of Kwon Taek Joo. She nodded several times. "That''s right, my son. Have you found him?" "That''s why he lost contact. Your son, he is a wanted criminal." "..What?" "Don''t you understand? I want to say that Kwon Taek Joo was not the one who was captured by bad people, but it was he who committed evil actions and then ran away. How can we find the person who did it?" The last words he said were almost to himself. Kwon Taek Joo''s mother stood blankly and shook her head. Eyes absentmindedly blinked continuously. "I do have it." "Yes. Your son is not like that, everyone says so. But anyway, your son is being chased for committing a serious crime. You don''t need to tell us to find him, you have to be on duty. Continue to find him and bring him here. If he contacts you, please tell me to surrender and confess." The police officer said an overflow had no chance of being stopped. Kwon Taek Joo''s mother completely lost her senses as if she had just been bombed. She only occasionally groaned and repeated, "It can''t be like that." After a while, she was able to turn around and walk away. The worried eyes of the people around followed. Not long after, she collapsed on the floor before she could get out the door. "Ma,am!" "Oh my god, call 119!" "What are you looking at? Quickly get over here!" The confused policeman shouted hastily. Someone called 119 and several people carried Kwon Taek Joo''s mother to a bench. They wet a handkerchief and apply it to their foreheads, quickly massaging their arms and legs to circulate blood. Ten minutes later the ambulance arrived. Kwon Taek Joo''s mother was taken into an ambulance in an unconscious state. A patrol police officer decided to accompany her to the hospital instead of the guardian who was not present. The ambulance turned on its warning lights and hurriedly left the police station. Until the loud siren faded away, there was one person still standing there. That''s Kwon Taek Joo. Because he was worried about his mother, he wandered in front of the house just as she walked out of the house. The fact that a wanted notice was issued means that people close to him will definitely be followed, so Kwon Taek Joo just planned to look at his mother from afar and then leave. His mother is someone who can''t sleep peacefully because she''s worried about her son, so he doesn''t expect her to have a good life. He never thought he would see her being carried away on a stretcher. Kwon Taek Joo felt resentful as he had to stand by helplessly even though he had not committed any crimes. Kwon Taek Joo pulled the brim of his hat down further. His fists turned white in his hurried steps. Another reason to quickly find out the truth. -- Kwon Taek Joo immediately went to the computer room. He went to the farthest corner and accessed the shooting game that Yoon Jong Woo loved. When he logged in with Yoon Jong Woo''s ID, a message appeared. It was sent by Yoon Jong Woo through another ID. Kwon Taek Joo checked the content and deleted it immediately. Less than 5 minutes after entering, he left the computer room. The place where Kwon Taek Joo reappeared was the subway station. He walked among the crowd of passengers flocking to the station and then left the group. He walked through the low corridor of the station and then began walking in a small tunnel with few passersby. Homeless people were sitting together, chattering and not paying attention to strangers along the small road. Kwon Taek Joo cautiously walked past them and stopped in front of a man lying on his side on a piece of newspaper. On the man''s chair was a worn Bacchus energy drink box. There were only a few coins in the box. As soon as he noticed a wad of money being pulled out from Kwon Taek Joo, he sat up, grabbed the money he was about to put in the box and openly counted it. Immediately after that, the man handed back the black bag he was holding in his hand. Kwon Taek Joo silently took it and the man lay down again as if he had finished his business. Kwon Taek Joo opened the bag and checked each item. Inside was a phone, ginseng juice and a corner of a newspaper with small notes on it. Kwon Taek Joo opened the bottle of red ginseng as he walked and drank it all in one gulp. A memory card is discreetly attached to the inside of the bottle cap. He removed the memory card and inserted it into the slot of the mobile phone and checked the data stored on the card. All the necessary information is arranged right in front of him. Kwon Taek Joo put the phone in his pocket and hurried out of the tunnel. Chapter 48 - 4.2 Hide and Seek 3 Chapter 48 - 4.2 Hide and Seek 3A while later, Kwon Taek Joo boarded the express bus bound for Taebaek. Before entering the main stage of the journey, there was someone he wanted to meet. He reviewed the information related to Kim Young Hee in the investigation documents during the car trip. Kim Young Hee left Korea for China and then Japan when she was 20 years old. After a year, she went to New York and lived there for ten years to clear her citizenship. By the time she entered Korea, her identity had transformed into that of a perfect second-generation immigrant. The investigation into Kim Young Hee began with the awareness of that suspicion. Headquarters obtained intelligence about her and then decided to assign the capture task to Kwon Taek Joo as usual. After monitoring media data such as Kim Young Hee''s SNS and emails, he determined that she had received instructions from North Korea. However, the results of eavesdropping or monitoring cannot be used as evidence. Evidence obtained from direct interrogation is needed to prove Kim Young Hee''s crime of espionage. Even when the "fish" was caught, appropriate evidence could not be found, so an arrest could not be made. At that moment, Kim Young Hee herself revealed it herself. The investigation became intense and Kwon Taek Joo chased her to Busan to attack the scene where she came into contact with Lee Cheol Jin. Everything went smoothly. But is that really the case? Kwon Taek Joo may have missed something important. From realizing the existence of a spy to investigation and arrest, it was so easy. On the other hand, the aftertaste of being arrested is not very pleasant. Kim Young Hee and a military officer committed suicide, Kwon Taek Joo and Yoon Jong Woo who participated in the capture mission were unable to follow the operation to the end. As a result, the case was handed over to the prosecution with some evidence missing. Every time she contemplates, Kwon Taek Joo feels more uncomfortable and confused. He looked at the report that Chief Lim had submitted on his behalf, everything looked very reasonable. The data that Kim Young Hee tried to transfer to Lee Cheol Jin was related to military secrets and could only be accessed by a few people. The military officer who committed suicide was one of them, and he had a very close relationship with Kim Young Hee. He maintained his innocence to the end, but in the report, they recorded that he was a person of high social status so he committed suicide because he could not overcome the psychological pressure. There''s nothing to doubt, but there''s also no evidence to refute it. Even those who might have objected disappeared. More and more, Kwon Taek Joo wondered if he had misunderstood something. The bus arrived three hours later. It was starting to get dark. The location that Yoon Jong Woo wrote on the paper was quite far from the bus station and there were only two buses a day, so Kwon Taek Joo decided to take a taxi. After looking at the address, he agreed with the driver to add a small tip and they departed. The taxi left the city center and drove for a long time on a winding mountain road. The car drove non-stop, approaching the top of the mountain. When the navigation system ends the instructions, everything around is completely submerged in darkness. "According to the address, it seems to be somewhere nearby.." The taxi driver looked out the window with suspicion. Of course. Because there was no light around, not even a streetlight. A place in the middle of a mountain seemed to show no signs of life, but Kwon Taek Joo still paid in full as promised and got out of the car. He confidently walked down the dark dirt road ahead. The taxi quickly turned around and returned the way it came. The sound of the engine quickly disappeared, but Kwon Taek Joo didn''t pay attention. He was too used to the dead silence while being held on a deserted island. Kwon Taek Joo continued walking, the bumpy dirt road disappeared and a mountain road with dense trees began. This is not a climbing path but just a path leading into the forest. Is there a hermitage in the mountains? Or did Kwon Taek Joo go the wrong way? Kwon Taek Joo hesitantly stood at the beginning of the road. He walked back and forth then suddenly heard the sound of a car door opening somewhere. He turned around, a man stepped out of an old truck in the darkness. He looked like a ranger wearing a large coat and hiking hat. "Hey. Don''t go in there. The climbing path has been identified." The man tried to stop Kwon Taek Joo. "Huh? Who is this?" "It''s been a long time since I last saw you, Doctor." Kwon Taek Joo recognized the man and greeted him. The man also recognized him and gave him a familiar smile. "What are you doing here? You''re not climbing a mountain in the middle of the night, are you?" "I''m here to see the Doctor." "What doctor? It''s been a long time since anyone called me that." Like Kwon Taek Joo, Dr. Jo was a member of the National Security Agency until two years ago. His job is to produce high-tech equipment needed for intelligence activities. Because Kwon Taek Joo performed so many missions, the two naturally became close. But since Dr. Jo retired, Kwon Taek Joo has not seen him again. Partly because of his busy work, but also because he did not leave any contact information. "Don''t stay here, go home first." Following Dr. Jo''s advice, Kwon Taek Joo climbed into the old truck with him. The engine starts making a noise like boiling water. "Did you come empty-handed?" "Impossible." Kwon Taek Joo shook the bag he was holding. Inside, the bottles collided with each other, making clear sounds. Dr. Jo smiled contentedly. "You''re such a tricky person." He added, "I''ll give you the chance to stay in the worst room in the country." The old truck staggered and crawled in the dark. After about 10 minutes, the two arrived at a small village with only 5 or 6 houses, but enough for shelter. It seemed like there weren''t many people living in this place, and it was already late at night so there were no lights on anywhere. Dr. Jo''s residence is located at the farthest location. The front yard of the house was full of scrap metal from unknown sources. If strangers saw it, they would mistake it for a landfill rather than a place to live. Inside the house is not much different. One side of the room is covered with a blanket and a table with leftovers from the previous meal left intact. "Sit down." Kwon Taek Joo hung the clothes scattered on the floor on the wall and tidied up. Meanwhile, Dr. Jo has set up a table of drinks. Dishes only include kimchi and tuna. Even so, the two of them gulped down two bottles of soju in the blink of an eye. "You really didn''t come here to see this wrinkled face, did you? Why did you suddenly appear?" "I need your help, Doctor." Kwon Taek Joo answered honestly. Dr. Jo smiled determinedly. "You stopped your current work to go see this old man. Are you going to work without letting headquarters know?" "Yes, it''s due to circumstances." "Then I also have to know a little about that situation. Retired state employees should be able to live comfortably." Sure. Kwon Taek Joo cannot ask for help without explaining anything. He tried to briefly summarize everything that happened recently. Dr. Jo listened carefully and then suggested another approach. "That, wouldn''t it be more comfortable to pretend you don''t know? If you''re worried about the situation later, you can face Chief Lim right now and compromise if you''re hated by your superiors and forced to Wrong crime. You are no stranger to such things. You are still young now, so you need to consider which side will benefit more. I think you are not the type of person who will risk your life for justice, right?" "I''ve considered it, but I can''t accept defeat and just live quietly like that. If there was room for compromise, headquarters wouldn''t have issued an arrest warrant so lightly. Now then. The only way is to play the chicken game." "Tsk tsk. When you''re old, you''ll regret it. When your bones dry up, you''ll regret what you did today." "Because Dr. Jo doesn''t know, that''s why I say that. I was abandoned in Russia and went through a lot of things that I will have to suffer from for the rest of my life." Kwon Taek Joo spoke as if he was about to kill someone, but his mind was still completely clear. Dr. Jo poured him another glass. "So you want me to be your accomplice?" "If caught, I''ll say it''s my fault. Please tell them you were threatened by me." "It''s okay." Both laughed loudly. Dr. Jo looked at Kwon Taek Joo with a look of mockery and complaint. "I just want to live a normal and small life when I retire, but bad people have come here to cause trouble." "Thanks." "Don''t thank me, I haven''t decided yet. Let''s go take a nap first." Dr. Jo crawled to the bed and just fell down. Not long after, a steady snoring sound filled the room. Kwon Taek Joo also laid down on the floor after cleaning up the messy wine table. It''s been a long time since he slept comfortably like this. Kwon Taek Joo looked up at the low ceiling and slowly closed his eyes. That night, he doesn''t remember how he slept. -- Kwon Taek Joo wandered aimlessly through the alleys of Moscow. Then he found a small bar with no sign. Strong cigarette smoke greeted Kwon Taek Joo as soon as he opened the door and entered. There is no ventilation anywhere, making visibility blurry. Kwon Taek Joo broke through the stuffy atmosphere and went deeper inside. At every step, there seemed to be a persistent gaze following him. That dissatisfied gaze swept across a fearless Asian. Kwon Taek Joo stood in front of the bar. The man who appeared to be the owner of the shop handed out vodka as usual. He pushed the glass aside and suddenly asked. "I need a passport." "Why are you looking for your passport here? You see, this is just a bar." The man behaved as if he knew nothing. The others who were watching the two of them laughed crudely. Several of them turned towards the bar and swayed their giant bodies. Some threaten by cracking their knuckles. "I''m busy, don''t waste each other''s time." Despite Kwon Taek Joo''s warning, the man continued to laugh. There was the sound of a chair being pulled out from behind. Kwon Taek Joo lowered his head as he felt the back of his neck tense. A huge fist cut through the air uselessly. He immediately grabbed a wooden chair and hit him on the head. The giant groaned and fell down. The other men saw that scene and immediately rushed in without hesitation. Kwon Taek Joo placed his back on the bar table and kicked both legs at the same time. Two men who were trying to lift the table in the back were kicked in the chest and collapsed. Soon, the inside of the shop became chaotic. In another unexpected turn of events, one of the two men pulled out a knife. He licked his thin lips and gripped the handle of the knife tightly, his half-closed eyes shining strangely. He rushed forward suddenly as if he was going to stab the knife immediately. But after a moment, he flinched and stopped, because Kwon Taek Joo took out the Colt and aimed it at his forehead. For a moment, all movement and noise in the bar was silent. The only thing that could be heard was the rapid breathing of the excited man. He rolled his eyes, looked into the void, then suddenly swung his knife. Kwon Taek Joo easily dodged his attack and pulled the trigger. "Ahh!" The knife fell with a clear gunshot. Its owner grabbed his right hand with severed fingers and shouted "I will kill you". Kwon Taek Joo picked up the fallen knife and stuck it on the bar. The knife was stuck firmly so it kept swaying from side to side. The energetic bar owner reluctantly retracted his hand and tilted his chin behind the bar. Kwon Taek Joo followed him. As expected, the room was equipped with fake devices. From identification cards such as passports to certificates and travel documents, the types of transactions are indeed very diverse. Kwon Taek Joo took passport photos on the spot and paid half the cost in advance. He decided to hand over the rest when he received his passport. Kwon Taek Joo gave him some more money and asked him to buy a train ticket to Beijing. That evening, Kwon Taek Joo received a third-class ticket for the train to Beijing and a fake passport. The passport had a strange name and personal information written on it in Japanese, and even in Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes, it was quite perfect. While he was paying the remaining amount, the bar owner secretly asked. "I heard someone is looking for an Asian who wants to fake a passport. Is it you?" "Who asked that?" "Psych Bogdanov." For a split second, his heart skipped a beat. It''s also not something that can be predicted. Kwon Taek Joo thought that Zhenya would chase him as punishment for the beating he suffered. Even so, his heart still pounded when he heard that he was actually moving. Zhenya clearly predicted Kwon Taek Joo''s upcoming moves. If he is captured again, his humble status will be very difficult to maintain. If he can find even a bar that Kwon Taek Joo went to, it''s only a matter of time before he gets caught again. -- Kwon Taek Joo stepped on the train under the bar owner''s watchful eyes. The shop owner stood and watched until the train closed all the doors and left the station before leaving. Kwon Taek Joo, who was looking for an opportunity inside the train, immediately opened the window and jumped onto the tracks. He avoided injury thanks to his speed. Kwon Taek Joo just disappeared and moved to a local airport. He then bought a one-way flight to Shanghai with cash. Immigration officers checked the passport here and there and stamped it without any special problems. A sigh of relief escaped. But Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t relax even after boarding the plane. He didn''t know why he was so restless during the short time before takeoff. Immediately after that, the boarding gate closed and the crew headed to their seats. After getting ready, the plane slowly began to move. Finally, Kwon Taek Joo left Russia to die. Everything went smoothly, until the plane, moving toward the runway, suddenly stopped. The crew hurriedly gathered into the cockpit. Passengers also looked around continuously in an unusual atmosphere. A moment later, the announcement on the plane rang out. "Please inform passengers. Departure will be delayed for a while due to an emergency request from the airport police. We hope passengers will understand and cooperate." The passengers'' eyes simultaneously turned to the window. Kwon Taek Joo saw an official vehicle driving in the distance. The plane quickly moved off the runway and landed on a separate stand. The emergency stairs were quickly connected and someone was slowly going up that way. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s heart was pounding, pounding heavily. His mouth was dry with an ominous feeling for unknown reasons. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head to the opposite window. There''s no reason for that to be the case, he''s probably just worrying for nothing. Kwon Taek Joo denied the thoughts that were dominating and constantly inflating in his head. Finally, the person boarding the plane slowly walked down the aisle. All eyes were on him so Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t help but pay attention. Finally, his steps suddenly stopped. Kwon Taek Joo still ignored him but he was able to recognize his true identity immediately, because that unique scent immediately entered his nose. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t dare turn his head to look at him at all, every cell in his body seemed to be frozen. "Do you think you can run away like this?" Every word he spit out was like a sharp needle. The conversation quickly turned cold. Kwon Taek Joo''s ears perked up as a beeping sound rang out in his ears. His cold hand tightened on Kwon Taek Joo''s wrist like a handcuff. When Kwon Taek Joo looked back in surprise, the passengers filling the plane had disappeared and the surroundings were in darkness. All that''s left is Kwon Taek Joo and the guy controlling him. He whispered under his breath and then tightened his grip to the point where he could crush his bones. "You can''t go, Kwon Taek Joo." -- "Oh my God!" Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and opened his eyes. His vision was blurry and spinning. The moldy wallpaper and the damp, undulating ceiling met his eyes. Where is this? Kwon Taek Joo tried to calm down and think and finally remembered that he had come to find Dr. Jo. Drops of sweat formed on his delicate, trembling eyelashes. Kwon Taek Joo''s whole body had goosebumps, his heart was beating fast and heavily. He sat up, cold sweat running down his spine, his eyebrows furrowed at the terrible feeling. There was no time for quiet as an even more strange and haunting feeling began to surface. Kwon Taek Joo clenched his fist and quickly placed it on his mouth to suppress his emotions. The suspense has not yet completely dissipated, the breathing and heartbeat become even more intense. It was just a dream. Kwon Taek Joo does not expect Zhenya to let go lightly. Zhenya is not someone who can simply be ignored, and since when has his attitude towards Kwon Taek Joo changed in such an incomprehensible way. If I''m not wrong, then that means.. Kwon Taek Joo accidentally developed a train of thought and quickly dismissed it. It seemed like he wasn''t too miserable yet because he still had time and energy for random ideas. What happened in the nightmare was quite similar to reality when Kwon Taek Joo fled Russia. He got off the train and boarded a plane to Shanghai at a local airport, but he did not encounter Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo faked his passport in Shanghai to enter Korea, he had to use a ship with a relatively lower level of vigilance, because if Kwon Taek Joo himself was falling into someone''s plot, entering The scene from the beginning was a difficult hurdle. His subconscious still reminded him not to let his guard down around Zhenya. Has he ever felt scared and worried about a specific object like this? Even if he sees a ghost, it seems that Kwon Taek Joo will not be as restless and helpless as he is now. He tried to calm his uncomfortably beating heart. S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head to regain his composure. He looked around and realized Dr. Jo was no longer in the room. He must have woken up very early. Kwon Taek Joo opened the creaky door and went outside, the cool morning air rushing deep into his lungs. He walked to the faucet and turned on the water. Ice-cold water gushed out. His hands were filled with water and then splashed on his sweaty face. After washing his face, his mind also became clearer, and the thinking circuit that had stopped working seemed to return. "The sun is up and you''re just waking up now?" Kwon Taek Joo turned around when he heard the sound of clicking his tongue. Dr. Jo is preparing the table. He quickly walked over to help lay out the food. Breakfast is simple with two types of kimchi and soy bean soup cooked with sliced onions, potatoes and zucchini. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t have any appetite, maybe because he drank last night or because the nightmare made his stomach hurt, but he still sat down to eat a little while thinking about Dr. Jo''s sincerity. "What did you dream about last night that made you gasp? I was wondering if I needed to call an ambulance." Kwon Taek Joo choked violently, almost spitting out what he was chewing. He couldn''t answer so he just quickly drank water. It wasn''t even a dirty dream at all but he suddenly felt embarrassed about being caught. Dr. Jo''s eyes widened in surprise at that unusual reaction. He smiled mischievously and then seriously changed the subject. "What? Sleeping one night and still thinking the same? Do you still want to do that reckless thing?" "Yes." Kwon Taek Joo nodded without hesitation. "There''s no other way, right? Then let me know what you need, I''ll prepare it right away." "Thanks." "It will be quite difficult. Even if I help you, in the end you will have to fight on your own." Kwon Taek Joo nodded silently. Dr. Jo looked at him with some sympathy then he stood up. The two got on an old truck and drove to a nearby hill. Dr. Jo parked the car at the bottom of the hill and confidently started climbing the mountain road. It was a long and narrow climbing path but there was no trace of anyone passing by. Even the elk don''t seem to be going that way. After climbing for more than an hour, a small cabin appeared. Kwon Taek Joo could tell intuitively, it was Dr. Jo''s personal laboratory. The inside was just like his home, with many miscellaneous objects scattered around. Pens, lighters, ties, hats and other common items, but in this context, they take on an unusual look that makes the space more unique. Dr. Jo suddenly gave a pen to Kwon Taek Joo, who was engrossed in looking around the cabin. "It''s a device that can deflect laser light or move it in a parallel direction. It looks simple but is quite useful." As if to demonstrate, Dr. Jo pulled down the curtain. Kwon Taek Joo also closed the blackout curtain behind him. The inside of the cabin soon became dark. As Dr. Jo operates the computer, dark blue lasers bounce off from everywhere forming a grid. Looks like the security device has been activated. Dr. Jo rotated the cap of the pen and held it toward the laser. Then, like pieces of metal being attracted to a magnet, all the laser beams began to move along with the pen. It seems that just having that pen makes most security devices useless. Dr. Jo said that it could be used in a different way and then picked up a targeting device mounted on the gun. He turned on the laser and aimed it at his heart. He then bent the laser beam again with the pen from before. The red laser beams were strangely broken or stretched straight up. After explaining, Dr. Jo gave the pen to Kwon Taek Joo and opened the curtains. Kwon Taek Joo then personally prepared the necessary items that were around. "Here, this looks like a normal laptop, but it is a machine that can create artificial skin, fingerprints, iris lenses, etc. Perfect practical implementation is possible with just a simple scan. The stick here is as soft as clay, but if pressed into the hole, it will quickly harden in that shape and can copy any key. But how did you get here?" Dr. Jo asked questions instead of happily introducing his inventions. He looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s surprised eyes and then pointed to the small screen under the table. "The detective dogs have already smelled the scent." The screen showed troops and police climbing through dense trees. Looks like the location has been leaked. Dr. Jo took out his bag and gave it to Kwon Taek Joo. He also coordinated his hands and feet and swept advanced equipment into it. "If you are caught, I will declare that I was threatened by you and give all my belongings to you." Dr. Jo leads Kwon Taek Joo to the emergency exit. He nodded and patted his back, "Go quickly." Kwon Taek Joo bowed and quickly exited through the emergency exit. He lowered his body and quickly advanced between the dense bushes. Dr. Jo watched for a moment then locked the door. The table that was pushed aside was also moved back to its original position and the emergency exit was completely obscured. When everything was finished, there was a knock on the door from outside. The newly arrived army and police were breathing heavily outside the door. Dr. Jo opened the door without hesitation and fulfilled his duties as a park ranger. "Everyone must have had a hard time climbing up here, but you have to go down now. This is a restricted area." Chapter 49 - 4.3 Hide and Seek 4 Chapter 49 - 4.3 Hide and Seek 4A knock on the closed door gave permission to enter. The door opened and Professor Yoon''s eves moved from the screen to the door. She had assumed it was a student or a teaching assistant, but the visitor surprised her. "Why have you come here?" The middle-aged man bowed his head. "I have a few questions regarding Professor Kim Young Hee. May I come in?" Professor Yoon''s face stiffened. "Hm, I don''t know what you''re expecting, but I also don''t know much about that person. Everything I know is not true so I have nothing more to say. So please go back." She drew clear boundaries and expressed her discomfort, but the man remained gentle and did not back down. "Please, just a few minutes." "Who are you anyways? Are you a reporter?" "Sorry, I''m late for introductions." The man took out his ID card and showed it to Professor Yoon, who was wary. "I am the prosecutor''s investigator in charge of Kim Young Hee''s case. I came because there is a part that needs to be added in the trial." The man who was explaining those things had a face similar to Chief Kim, but in reality. It was Kwon Taek Joo disguised as him. His identity card and appearance were so fake that even his family had a hard time telling the difference. Professor Yoon sighed as if disappointed. "Honestly, I don''t know anything. A few years ago I went to a conference and got to know her through the introduction of another professor. We exchanged a few words right when our school decided to hire her. So we live close to each other but don''t know about each other''s private lives. But it''s all just a disguise, what else can I say to the investigator?" Even after living in the same house for more than a decade, people often cannot know that their spouse is a spy. Furthermore, there is no way she could have been aware of Kim Young Hee''s activities within the co-worker relationship. What Kwon Taek Joo is trying to confirm is much more trivial. "At the time of her arrest, Kim Young Hee was wearing a ring on the ring finger of her left hand. That ring is almost unworn, professor, do you know what ring it is?" "I heard she was getting married. She''s been dating a man. I don''t know who it is, but I''ve seen him several times on her phone." Is that man the dead military officer? But he has a family. Social status and self-image are important to spies. Based on that stance, it seems that she will not publicly announce that she is about to marry a married man. If she approached a military officer with the intention of stealing confidential information, their date would have to be more discreet. At least my colleagues couldn''t notice. If so, then there is definitely someone else. Kwon Taek Joo was quite confident but he did not rush to make a decision. This time he must dig step by step. "I wonder if you know where you bought that ring?" "Normally I don''t know because men are the ones buying the rings." "But.. you mean you know?" "Yes. The person who designed the ring is the wife of a member of the same academy." Professor Yoon immediately took out a business card and gave it to Kwon Taek Joo. "Let''s try to find out." he felt a firm voice telling him to stop the questioning. -- Kwon Taek Joo immediately went to the jewelry store that Professor Yoon mentioned. Seeing Kwon Taek Joo in a neat suit, the manager warmly greeted him and guided him to the consultation desk. "Excuse me, what product are you looking for?" "I want to see a ring." "Ah, so that''s it. Are you going to use it to propose?" Kwon Taek Joo nodded. Thinking he was shy, the manager smiled and took out the request form. "Do you want any special designs?" "I''m not very familiar with gemstones, can I look at other products?" "Of course." The manager happily took the tablet and opened up the catalogs. He scrolled through each product photo and gave explanations that bordered on praise. Kwon Taek Joo listened briefly and only carefully observed the photos. "Don''t you know what the bride-to-be likes? Some people like fancy things, and some people like simple things. This type ignores the small details and increases the carat instead." Suddenly an image caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. That is it. That is the ring that Kim Young Hee wore. "This design." "Ah, you like that design?" The manager, who was embarrassed by Kwon Taek Joo''s sullen reaction from beginning to end, suddenly became happy, but he was immediately confused after checking the relevant information. "Sorry, but that ring was specially designed for a teacher to give to an acquaintance. It is not an ordinary product but a type of work created by inspiration. It will be impossible to make another one like it. But instead, I can make a similar one. What do you think?" "When was this ring made?" "Hm, I don''t know. But it probably hasn''t been half a year." "This isn''t a couple ring, right?" "Yes, this is perfect for proposals and gifts." "So the person who bought it must have been a man, right?" "What?" The manager''s smile faded from the questions that continuously flowed out like flowing water, his eyes silently sparkled with suspicion. It seemed he was slowly backing away. "Where''s the bathroom?" "Ah, yes. Over there." Kwon Taek Joo walked in the direction the manager pointed. He pretended not to notice the prying eyes clearly following behind him and walked into the bathroom aisle. The phone bell suddenly rang. The manager finally looked away and went to answer the phone. During that time, Kwon Taek Joo went out alone again. He saw the surveillance camera mounted in the center of the ceiling as soon as he entered. Cameras record the entire store''s activities in real time because the products on display are expensive items. Even if the built-in memory is periodically cleared, there will still be a backup file. Sometimes Kwon Taek Joo still hears the manager''s voice talking on the phone. Repeated apologies, it seems he is receiving complaints. He focused on that and seemed to forget Kwon Taek Joo''s existence. A moment later Kwon Taek Joo arrived in front of the office. He gently lowered the door handle, but it was locked tightly. Kwon Taek Joo took the clay bar he received from Dr. Jo and pushed it into the keyhole. He waited a few seconds then tried turning it carefully, the locking device was immediately removed. Kwon Taek Joo went inside, careful not to make any noise from the door. As expected, a computer was placed there. He turned on the power and inserted the USB into the slot. Immediately after that, an import window appears. The hacking program is executed by entering a specific command. Kwon Taek Joo specified the copy scope as the entire hard drive and pressed Enter. A progress bar graph appears on the screen. Kwon Taek Joo waited and observed the movements outside the door. The manager seemed to still be on the phone. He still just kept apologizing, pitiful. The copy was quickly completed. Kwon Taek Joo took the USB back and turned off the computer. He arranged the mouse back to its original position and went out. Kwon Taek Joo also did not forget to lock the door with a hard clay bar and stop by the bathroom to wash his hands. "I''m very sorry, ladies and gentlemen. When you have time, please come visit and we will compensate you as desired. No, that''s not it. It''s not that I intend to ignore it, it''s just that there are other customers here. Store.. What? Do you feel neglected? It''s unfair. Yes, of course. You must have been heartbroken. I understand." Kwon Taek Joo returned to his seat and pretended to take his coat and take a photo of the ring in the catalog. He then approached the manager who was still holding the phone. As soon as their eyes met, he showed remorse. "It seems you''re busy. I''ll come back later." "What? No.. I..." He didn''t have time to stop Kwon Taek Joo because the voice on the other side of the receiver continued to sound. The manager''s face showed a tired look. Kwon Taek Joo left the store after he asked him to stop by again next time. Kwon Taek Joo quickly walked out, the phone in his pocket rang. The only person who knows this phone number is Yoon Jong Woo. He took out his phone and walked away while receiving the call. -Senior, have you succeeded? "You really have the talent to act, don''t you? As far as I can see, your skills aren''t something you''ve only done this 1 or 2 times." -are you scolding me? "If you want to hear it as a compliment, it''s fine." -The ring, have you checked it yet? Is it really there? "Yes. I found the ring. Now I just need to find someone." If there is a hidden truth, the clue is contained in the USB. "I will contact you later," Kwon Taek Joo ended the call with Yoon Jong Woo and took longer strides. -- Kwon Taek Joo checked the sale records in the copied files. Quarterly revenue data is organized in detail. According to the manager, Kim Young Hee''s ring was made about half a year ago. The search scope was set by Kwon Taek Joo to the fourth quarter of last year and transaction details, deposit and withdrawal records from bank accounts, and sales records were entered. Kwon Taek Joo searched for the name of Kim Young Hee''s ring model. Two results soon emerged. Kwon Taek Joo clicked on the transaction statement. The credit card information that paid for the ring is written on it. The owner of the card is not the deceased military officer. However, there was a strangely familiar name that caught Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. "This is.." Suddenly a character with the same name appeared completely unexpectedly in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. It''s not a common name, but it''s not a very rare one either. Assuming that person is involved, the suspicions are mostly resolved. But that''s just an assumption. Caution is required. He also opened the surveillance camera recording. To prepare for unexpected situations, a whole year''s worth of videos have been kept intact by the store. Among them, Kwon Taek Joo replayed the video on the day that coincided with the sales invoice. Since early morning, there have been quite a few customers coming in and out. Kwon Taek Joo also saw the manager and designer he just met. However, there was no one in particular that attracted his attention. Kwon Taek Joo fast forwards the video at 4x speed. He looked at it for an hour and then stopped. He rewinded the screen that had just passed and played it back at normal speed. A man and a woman visited after lunch. The designer personally came out to welcome the two. The image quality of the video is not very good, but the woman clearly looks like Kim Young Hee. However, the man hovering around the corner of the screen could not be seen clearly. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo felt deja vu from that figure. He sighed as he zoomed in on the screen like a habit. The place where Kwon Taek Joo was sitting was a shabby computer room. Unable to enlarge the screen and unable to improve image quality, it seemed he needed Yoon Jong Woo''s help. Kwon Taek Joo carefully uploaded the video to a website and logged into Yoon Jong Woo''s favorite shooting game. He left his ID, password and requests in a note, then deleted all usage records on his computer and left. As soon as he left the computer room. Kwon Taek Joo entered a big street. Crowded streets before work. He naturally blended into the crowd and walked away. "...." How long have you been gone? Kwon Taek Joo became aware of an unusual sign from behind. The road was filled with pedestrians. Some of them may have the same destination. However, it was strange when that person followed Kwon Taek Joo while constantly looking at the back of his head. At that moment, the faces of the people behind were reflected in the window of the car turning right. There are three people in total. They all closely watched Kwon Taek Joo. There was an entrance to the subway station nearby, Kwon Taek Joo pretended to pass by, then suddenly turned around and walked into it. "Chase!" The pursuers no longer pretended to be people on the road and hurriedly gave in to chase him. They pushed people climbing up the stairs like water at the train station while fiercely chasing Kwon Taek Joo. Kwon Taek Joo jumped through the ticket gate and avoided other passengers to climb up the railing of a staircase. He did not slow down and slid down the steep railing When the pursuers arrived at the station, Kwon Taek Joo had disappeared. The men exchanged signs in silence and then dispersed in various directions. One of them walked around and checked the faces of the sparsely lined passengers while those who remained continued to turn in other directions. At that moment, the announcement that a train was about to arrive rang out. He became more impatient. The man''s eyes looked around and then suddenly fixed on one place. There was another man holding up a newspaper and covering his face. He gently approached, one of his hands reached inside his jacket and grabbed the gun. Soon the train arrived. In a split second, he tugged at the newspaper. Contrary to expectations, the newspaper fell so easily but he did not have a chance to wonder. because a strong shock fell on his neck. "Sigh." He clutched his neck and staggered kicking the man. Passengers around were panicked by the sudden violence. The other pursuers who noticed the commotion also rushed over. At that moment, the train doors opened and people poured out. The helpless pursuers were carried away by that fierce crowd. Kwon Taek Joo looked at that scene and then leisurely walked onto the subway. The pursuers pushed their way through the crowd and tried to approach, but the train doors closed first. The men who missed Kwon Taek Joo right under their noses vented their anger on the innocent screen door. Sear?h the nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo stood leaning his tired body against the train for a while. The movement of the subway train running on the tracks was transmitted to him intact. By now the other men must have called for backup, so he had to get off at the next stop. Kwon Taek Joo was calculating how to escape the siege when his phone suddenly rang. The caller was definitely Yoon Jong Woo. "Have you checked yet?" -Senior. This is not a composite, right? Yoon Jong Woo asked in a confused voice. Isn''t the game found on the sales invoice the same person? "What''s wrong?" -If you watch it live. I just sent it to senior. Kwon Taek Joo checked the image that was just sent. It appears to be an image taken and edited from a video. The person in the picture is definitely someone that Kwon Taek Joo knows. The person who promised Kim Young Hee a future was not the dead military officer. Kwon Taek Joo put the phone to his ear. "Shit." -This is definitely appropriate. What are you going to do now? Should we send this document to the prosecutor in charge? "Not yet." -What evidence is more accurate than this? The train arrived at the next station. Kwon Taek Joo carefully looked around and then quickly walked out. "This is not enough. There needs to be more." "I''ll try to find it and get back to you, until then Jong Woo, slowly dig him out." Kwon Taek Joo assigned the job. Before Yoon Jong Woo could say anything, he said "Alright." then hung up the phone. Just like that. Kwon Taek Joo blended into the crowd again. The phone started ringing again. The text ''does not display caller identity'' appeared on the screen. If it were Yoon Jong Woo, he wouldn''t have to do that. But no one else knows this phone number. Kwon Taek Joo felt confused. He ignored the call and stuffed his phone into his pocket. Not long after, the shaking subsided. Kwon Taek Joo was about to try to ignore it and continue walking, but before he could take a step, his pocket vibrated again. This time, the caller is still ''does not show caller identity'' Who is it? Kwon Taek Joo stared at his phone that continued to vibrate and touched the call button. He didn''t speak, but just held his breath and put the phone to his ear. For some reason, it had been a while and he still hadn''t heard anything from the other end. Kwon Taek Joo thought the phone might have been disconnected, but the call connection time continued. Kwon Taek Joo brought the phone to his ear again. As he gathered all of his nerves, Kwon Taek Joo could hear the sound of light breathing. The opponent also seemed to be clearly aware of Kwon Taek Joo''s moves. "Who is this?" He growled. Although the tone was quite overwhelming, laughter came from the other side of the phone. At the same time, Kwon Taek Joo''s heart sank. The laughter that rang in his ears was quite familiar. Is it him? Vague associations stirred up in Kwon Taek Joo''s heart. His heart was beating wildly as if ready to pierce his flesh. His pulse was beating frantically. His spine suddenly felt cold, his hand holding the phone was sweating. Even in that situation, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t hang up his phone. His thinking system was paralyzed and he couldn''t do anything. The call ended immediately after that. Kwon Taek Joo quickly checked his phone again, and the screen had turned to standby status. It''s really that bastard. How the hell? A memory returned to Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. While in Irkutsk, he contacted Yoon Jong Woo using the phone Zhenya gave him when he told him to feel free to learn about him. And he also owned a program that was easily infected with hacking viruses. If Zhenya succeeds in spreading this program to Yoon Jong Woo''s phone, a call like just now is completely possible. "Damned." Kwon Taek Joo hugged his heaving chest tightly. His strong heart that was always proud was now trembling at the thought of Zhenya. Is it because this is the first time he has exceeded such power? Or is it because he is scared that he will take revenge. No, the current insecurity does not stem from such simple emotions. It''s much more complicated and deadly. During his time with Zhenya, everything always seemed to be under threat, and in the moment when he met Zhenya again, Kwon Taek Joo had the feeling that everything would collapse. It hasn''t even been a month since he ran away from that deadlock. The laughter from earlier still rang in his ears. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo felt a passionate gaze looking at him. Kwon Taek Joo looked around again but there was only a stream of people rushing back and forth, no one was paying attention to him. Probably not Zhenya. Maybe those are just your useless worries. Kwon Taek Joo tried to comfort himself. He pulled his collar up to cover his face and quickly left the place. Chapter 50 - 4.4 Hide and Seek 5 Chapter 50 - 4.4 Hide and Seek 5Chief Lim''s eyes turned to the door because there was a knock on the door that he was waiting for. Even though there was no answer, the door opened and a man walked inside. "Missed him." Faced with the meaningful report, he placed his hand on the armrest of the chair. It wasn''t until recently that Chief Lim learned that Kwon Taek Joo had secretly returned to the country. However, he did not go to headquarters nor return to his home. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo is digging up what happened to him. Chief Lim immediately issued an arrest warrant and began a close search. Surveillance of Kwon Taek Joo and Yoon Jong Woo''s mothers and other close aides was also increased. Then he discovered that Yoon Jong Woo had been frequently contacting a certain phone number recently. Chief Lim succeeded in finding Kwon Taek Joo by tracking the location of that phone number in real time, but still could not arrest him. And since then, the phone power has been continuously turned off. Even at Taebaek, every time Chief Lim missed him right under his nose. "So, what was he doing in the PC room?" "There''s no trace because he deleted all his computer history. Why don''t we use Yoon Jong Woo as bait?" It wasn''t a bad idea, but Chief Lim shook his head. The opponent is an agent skilled in chasing or being chased. Cell phones are turned off more often than they are turned on. He erased the traces so that even experts could not recover them when using public computers. Kwon Taek Joo knew exactly how headquarters would pursue him, so he skillfully escaped. There''s a high possibility that he won''t appear even if Chief Lim tries to capture Kwon Taek Joo using Yoon Jong Woo. Okay, go out. Report as soon as you locate him." "Yes." The man bowed politely and went out. Chief Lim looked at his watch and then stroked his face. It was late at night. He hadn''t been home for many days and was practically living at headquarters. He had no change of clothes left so he probably had to go home. Chief Lim left the office carrying his coat hanging loosely on the chair. He took the elevator down to the underground parking lot. There were only a few cars left there belonging to the night staff. Chief Lim crossed the empty space and went to the parking lot in Block C. He took the key out of his pocket and prepared to unlock it first. Suddenly the driver''s door opened wide. "I''m home, chief." The person who stepped out of Chief Lim''s car was none other than Kwon Taek Joo. He couldn''t understand how Kwon Taek Joo got into the headquarters while being chased. "Long time no see." After a moment of hesitation, Chief Lim calmly greeted. Kwon Taek Joo nodded dryly. He also did not show an offensive attitude or show hostility. From the beginning, Kwon Taek Joo had no intention of threatening Chief Lim. He just wanted to hear him talk. Chief Lim pretended like nothing happened. "How is your mother?" "Well, the department head should know better than me about that." Chief Lim smiled at the gnarled answer. Kwon Taek Joo lifted his body leaning against the car body and slowly approached him step by step. Soon, Chief Lim''s face was dyed with Kwon Taek Joo''s shadow. He held the phone out in front of him. An image of the ring taken from the jewelry store filled the screen. Old Lim also acted like he didn''t know anything this time. "What is this?" "The chief knows it better than me." "I don''t understand what you''re talking about." "So let''s see if you know this." Another photo appeared on the screen. That is the CCTV screenshot that Yoon Jong Woo sent. It has been meticulously edited enough to distinguish the people in the photo even at a glance. Chief Lim''s expression, which was always calm, suddenly turned sharp. "When I caught Kim Young Hee on the ferry to Shimonoseki, I realized she was wearing a ring on her left hand. Although I''m not someone who knows much about jewelry, even I thought it was something. It must mean something to Kim Yeong Hee, otherwise she wouldn''t have worn it even in such a difficult situation, because a ring like that shouldn''t be scratched. That ring had no scratches, it seemed like it had only been purchased recently, and it was not found at the scene. The handkerchief I used to cover Kim Young Hee''s mouth was also gone." "So what?" "Well then. I found out why it disappeared, from where the ring was purchased, and who paid for it. The results were surprising. I thought that the department head was secretly having an affair when His wife was abroad and didn''t know anything. But maybe it''s a little more serious than that. Who would decide to kill a subordinate along with his lover just because he doesn''t want a divorce? I don''t know if there is a temptation that is more difficult to resist. Then, when I saw this CCTV footage, the answer appeared." Kwon Taek Joo was silent for a moment then looked straight at Chief Lim. "Why did you do this to me? Deputy manager 1 said that if this job goes well, he will give you a special promotion?" Chief Lim was unmoved by the angry criticism. He just looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s phone with a calm expression. The character filling the screen is Deputy Manager 1. Recently, it was reported that the current head of the National Intelligence Agency is about to resign. Rumors spread that he would appoint one of three deputy chiefs. Every department is busy secretly accumulating achievements and washing records. In case the direct superior is promoted, the position of the subordinate departments that person is in charge of will also change. If an agency, an organization or a group of people gathers, it is impossible to escape internal politics. Meanwhile, Chief Lim, who was subordinate to Deputy Chief 3, suddenly shook hands with Deputy Chief 1. It was clear that he had been guaranteed a huge benefit that could not be obtained through formal methods. "Now I understand what nonsense you''re trying to talk about. Is this why you came back and dug it up? Like you said, even though Deputy Chief 1 has a deep relationship with Kim Young If Hee is dead, nothing will change. Even in a husband and wife relationship, it''s normal to be completely unaware that the other person is a spy. But that doesn''t mean we should blame all the blame. for one side. Hiding someone you love is not a crime, right?" On that part, Chief Lim is absolutely right. All Kwon Taek Joo discovered was that deputy chief 1 had a personal relationship with Kim Young Hee. To prosecute Deputy Chief 1, he must find evidence that he was closely related to Kim Young Hee''s death. Or, it needs to be proven that he received orders directly from North Korea and contributed to stealing classified information. It''s not an easy task. Chief Lim smiled triumphantly. "Wouldn''t it be much easier to reveal your guilt? There''s no way to prove you went to Russia on a mission. Furthermore, the fact that you met Psych Bogdanov, a member of the agency Russian intelligence, and always with him is the truth, and to this world only what is clearly seen is considered truth, isn''t that right?" "I didn''t come here to compare who is better off." "So you came here to say your final goodbye? I also want to see you at least once before you get caught. I want to advise you to give up before the situation gets worse. To put it simply Then you''re just an agent who stole national secrets on this land and died. What''s so big about having to investigate so endlessly? It''s not too late now. Don''t drag it out. half more. Why don''t you turn yourself in so your guilt and sentence can be reconsidered?" Kwon Taek Joo''s chin shook, his eyes became more fierce. "If you had any desire for status or power, I wouldn''t be like this. You said it was too stressful and uninteresting. So maybe you should leave the field? You really went to NIS to protect the country? How naive." "Ah, I''m almost really angry." Kwon Taek Joo is full of spirit. Chief Lim was a superior he was quite dependent on, if not respected enough. Because he has worked closely with him since Kwon Taek Joo joined NIS. Chief Lim is also the only person Kwon Taek Joo has ever opened up about his family and thoughts. But for him, all that is just a flashy appearance. He knew how to throw everything away to protect his rights. A ''click'' sound rang out when Kwon Taek Joo''s Colt touched Chief Lim''s forehead. His face turned cold. Lives were in danger, but Chief Lim still didn''t blink. "So you still remember this sentence? I can''t accept my 100% mission completion record from collapsing." "Does that mean you''ll investigate this alone?" "It means I won''t be able to die alone." Kwon Taek Joo pulled the trigger without hesitation. Chief Lim, who was already relaxing, tightened his whole body at that moment. But some time passed and the surroundings remained quiet, because the gun had no bullets. Kwon Taek Joo slowly pulled back the gun. Chief Lim, who was closing his eyes tightly, smiled tiredly. Kwon Taek Joo looked at him silently for a moment then turned and left. Such a warning was given. "If this continues, not only will the crime of leaking classified information be added, but illegal intrusion, falsification of official documents, and even intentional murder will also be added." What is he saying? Kwon Taek Joo frowned and looked back. At that moment, Chief Lim pulled out his Colt and pulled the trigger. The ricocheting bullet grazed his shoulder and flew away, smashing the ceiling. Immediately afterwards, the alarm system was activated throughout the building. Chief Lim grabbed the staggering shoulder and smiled with satisfaction. The emergency exit became noisy for a moment. Night duty officers heard gunshots and continuous alarms and were running over. Anyone looking at the current scene will mistakenly think that Kwon Taek Joo is intentionally harming Chief Lim. Kwon Taek Joo quickly picked up Chief Lim''s car keys, climbed into the car and started it. There were about three or four employees running from the emergency exit. One of them assisted Chief Lim, and the rest targeted Kwon Taek Joo. "Don''t move!" "If you move, I''ll shoot!" Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate to step on the accelerator despite the warning. When the car body rushed out, the staff blocking the front also quickly moved to the sides. A late shot is fired at Kwon Taek Joo who is running away. However, the hastily fired bullets only grazed the air vent and the side of the car''s body. The car stubbornly pushed through the lowered barrier and quickly disappeared from sight. S§×ar?h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. -- Kwon Taek Joo left the car in the middle of the road and leisurely walked along the deserted market road. Occasionally a patrol car can be heard from across the street. At times like that, he just quietly hides in the darkness for a while, waits for the situation to return to normal, and then continues moving. His legs felt like they were carrying a bag of sand. His head felt like he had just woken up and couldn''t think of any thoughts. Since escaping from Zhenya''s island, Kwon Taek Joo has never had a comfortable day of rest. Now he just wants to lie down for a while. How far has he gone? Suddenly something caught his leg. It''s an advertising sign for a boarding house. However, there was no place around that resembled an inn. Kwon Taek Joo tried looking at the alley that looked like a trail. There is an old building that appears to be an inn. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t think anymore and walked straight there. Don''t know if they are doing business or not, but the surrounding area is very quiet. The cashier counter is also so dark that it is impossible to distinguish the faces of people inside or outside. The occasional noise from the TV shows that there are still people here. Kwon Taek Joo inserted a 50,000 won bill into the narrow slot. Immediately a key was given. Kwon Taek Joo took the key and went to the second floor. As he walked through the hallway, voices from other rooms leaked out. He wondered if he could rest comfortably here. Kwon Taek Joo entered the arranged room and turned on the lights. The old fluorescent lamp flashed once, but it could not light up completely and kept flashing alternately. Regardless, Kwon Taek Joo closed the door and just fell to the floor without even taking off his shoes. He let out a long breath. Kwon Taek Joo completely lost all his strength. Suddenly, he became a criminal who leaked state secrets and an immoral person who tried to murder his superiors. To prove his innocence, Kwon Taek Joo must uncover the schemes of Chief Lim and Deputy Chief 1. Meanwhile, today''s call still made him worried. Hopefully not. Even though he firmly denied it, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t get rid of the insecurity that always haunted him. Zhenya always ''justly defends'' and he is also someone who always gives back more than what he receives. He can''t guarantee that a guy like him will completely give up on Kwon Taek Joo. And how is your mother doing? Kwon Taek Joo hasn''t been able to see her once since she was taken out of the police station. Because of what happened to Chief Lim, the surveillance will be stricter so it will be difficult to see his mother from afar. Kwon Taek Joo lay back. The light gradually dimmed and then brightened on the ceiling. He gently stroked his face. Too tired. His mind was confused as if his brain was having a cramp. Racing day and night in a noisy and bustling world, every moment seems filled with pressure, Kwon Taek Joo remembers the stillness he once vaguely had. When consciousness became distant, Kwon Taek Joo imagined himself immersed in a white snow field. -- The door opened. His body was still in contact with the hard floor. The cool air from the hallway flowed onto Kwon Taek Joo''s feet. He tossed and turned in his sleep. But he couldn''t quickly get up and close the door. Have you locked the door carefully? Memories of that are also unclear. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt uncomfortable. But that feeling is familiar, not strange. Are you used to this cold? The cold quickly enveloped his body. His eyes were still closed, but it seemed like Kwon Taek Joo could see the hallway through his eyelids. What stretched there was not darkness, but a field of snow. Heavy snowflakes blew into the room. The surrounding was still so quiet that Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t feel a trace. However, he felt he needed to get up immediately. A vague sense of urgency as if everything was going in an unexpected direction. But Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know how to escape this dream. He was only aware that he needed to wake up, but his eyes still couldn''t open. Kwon Taek Joo vaguely felt someone''s presence. He was startled, but luckily that person was not big. A boy who looked quite young was standing behind him. That image brings a feeling of both strangeness and familiarity. The child covered his eyes with the back of his hand. It looked like he was crying. Why are you crying? Kwon Taek Joo wondered and suddenly remembered a memory. And soon he realized, it was Kwon Taek Joo who made that child cry. Because the child held his hand so tightly, he thought that if he was held back, Kwon Taek Joo would never be able to escape. The child suddenly looked up. A face he had never seen before. But with this feeling, Kwon Taek Joo seems to know who that person is. His normally calm heart suddenly beat wildly. At the same time, a bad premonition rose in Kwon Taek Joo''s head. The dark fire called insecurity burns like a forest fire. Run. His instincts spoke up to give orders. Suddenly the boy ran over. Kwon Taek Joo tried to step back but his body lay still and did not move. The child''s body was as cold as an ice field embracing him tightly. Kwon Taek Joo was startled and reflexively pushed the child away. But the child no longer let go as easily as before. No matter how hard he tried to shake it off, it only increased the pressure on his waist. "Kwon Taek Joo, why.." A gentle voice rang in his ear. Kwon Taek Joo looked down bewilderedly. The child was gone, and Zhenya suddenly appeared pressing his whole body against him. No, it''s not him. Kwon Taek Joo denied his presence even though he saw that person with his own eyes. He never spoke like that. And he can''t call Kwon Taek Joo in such a pitiful way. The surrounding landscape changed into a white snow field. The gentle scent of McCallan along with the scent of birch trees carried by the wind gently touched his nose. The chaotic atmosphere also calmed down. His vision was obscured by Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo cannot move even without being bound by anything. So Kwon Taek Joo fully received Zhenya''s eyes looking down. Inappropriate emotions filled those blue eyes. His heart was beating wildly again, uncontrollable. Everything is just an illusion, only the heavy and uncomfortable heartbeat is real. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even breathe. Suddenly the man''s face came closer. Somehow Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t avoid it. He was no longer swept away by the atmosphere like before, but he still lay quietly under him. Two nervous lips touched each other. The cool air quickly spread from his lips and ran along all the blood vessels throughout his body. Kwon Taek Joo''s limbs froze. Why..? The complaining voice blew like a wind. A strange feeling invaded Kwon Taek Joo''s entire body, like something unidentifiable had penetrated deep into his soul. -- Kwon Taek Joo immediately opened his eyes. Drops of sweat ran down the sides of his face and down his neck. His eyebrows furrowed because of the scary feeling. Some people say that if you think too much, your dreams will become gloomy. That''s right, in the past few days, Kwon Taek Joo has continuously had nightmares. His heart beat so hard it hurt. Like an automatic reflex, just seeing Zhenya makes Kwon Taek Joo excited uncontrollably. It seems like the difference between fear and desire is as thin as a piece of paper. Kwon Taek Joo gasped. His whole body was drenched in sweat, making him uncomfortable. Even though he really needed to take a shower, he couldn''t stand up and just lay quietly in one place. The next thing Kwon Taek Joo realized was that the discomfort came from a very subtle place. He was startled and looked down, the leg below him was raising its head stiffly. Kwon Taek Joo rubbed his eyes and looked back, its appearance still hadn''t changed a bit. And what for.. Kwon Taek Joo tried to find another reason, but the only thing he saw in his dream was Zhenya. No matter how many times he thought about it, everything just stops at the moment their lips touch each other. Could it be.. Just because of that, you''re like this? Kwon Taek Joo stared at his core but it was not subdued in the slightest. It was still very arrogant as if teasing him. Kwon Taek Joo angrily rubbed his messy hair "Fuck, am I really gay?" While he was still struggling fiercely with himself, there was a whisper from the next room. He also knocked hard on the wall with a warning to be quiet. Outside the window it was already bright. It seems that Kwon Taek Joo slept soundly in the situation of running away. Whether in a dream or when waking up, Kwon Taek Joo feels chased. Pitiful. He groaned and then lifted himself up. Kwon Taek Joo quickly left the room. The hallway and cashier counter remained quiet. Kwon Taek Joo walked quickly on the road where dawn had begun. Chapter 51 - 4.5 Hide and Seek 6 Chapter 51 - 4.5 Hide and Seek 6The sauna house was almost empty after work, only Kwon Taek Joo and two elderly people. Thanks to that, he rented a private sauna. The hot air covered his tired body. Kwon Taek Joo comfortably rested his neck and enjoyed the hard-won peace. It is a luxury that he does not know when he will be able to enjoy it again. He looked up at the ceiling with countless drops of water forming. Kwon Taek Joo meaninglessly counted them and rearranged the complicated thoughts in his head. The key character in this case is not Kim Young Hee or Department Head Lim but Deputy Department 1. The important thing is whether he only has a pure love relationship with Kim Young Hee or something more. If Chief Lim affirms that Deputy Chief 1 is also just a victim of Kim Young Hee, then his crime is limited to neglecting the case. However, if he helped Kim Young Hee despite knowing her identity, or if he acted on direct orders from North Korea, the punishment would be much harsher. The nature of the evidence that must be found to clarify the truth will also be different. Kwon Taek Joo met Deputy Head 1 at headquarters before going to Russia. At that time he appeared extremely calm. That has never been the attitude of someone who has just lost a lover. If the relationship between them was so deep that it promised a future, could he be so calm after hearing the news about the other''s true identity and death? Kim Young Hee suddenly made a move after a period of silence at a time when the NIS and the prosecutor''s office were busy. It could have been just a coincidence, or there could have been orders coming from North Korea at the time. Maybe someone proactively revealed the incident between Kim Young Hee and Lee Cheol Jin. One thing is for sure, if Deputy Director 1 is interested in the NIS head position, he will definitely want to cut off all ties with Kim Young Hee. If Deputy Chief 1 went beyond the level of mere participation and interfered in operational activities, there is a high possibility that he also contacted Lee Cheol Jin. Lee Cheol Jin is the only survivor among the key figures of the incident. First, it''s best to meet him. Kwon Taek Joo took a quick shower and then went out to the dressing room. He took out his phone and turned it on. A pile of missed calls and texts, all from Yoon Jong Woo. He must have gone to work so he must have heard the news from headquarters. Kwon Taek Joo called the worried Yoon Jong Woo. Before the call connection sound could be heard, Yoon Jong Woo picked up the phone. He asked without stopping. -Where are you? Are you alright? I heard you came here last night? The atmosphere right now is no joke. Senior, you almost became a terrorist. "That''s all?" -Really? So what? Why is the senior so calm! They said that the senior tried to kill the department head, which was attempted murder. The arrest warrant has also been strengthened. There will be a request to cooperate with the national investigation agency. Yoon Jong Woo seems to be hiding somewhere talking on the phone. He lowered his voice as much as possible and whispered very softly but his mouth was moving non-stop. "Jong Woo", Kwon Taek Joo spoke while using his teeth to tear the plastic layer of his underwear. - Yes. What? He spoke softly. "Do you think I shot Chief Lim?" -That.. I don''t know anymore. If it wasn''t the senior, then who shot? It''s true that you came here last night and met the department head. Really.. What are you planning to do next? "The others don''t know, but you have to trust me. There''s no other way now. Chief Lim must have realized that you were helping me." - Yes? What do we do now?! "There''s no one else there but you who can help me. I forced you to be my accomplice a long time ago. Although.. I wonder if I can reduce your sentence based on the condition that you leave the NIS.." -It''s gone! "That''s why I said that if I get caught, it probably won''t work, right? If you don''t want to get into trouble, then tell me what you investigated." -He''s deputy chief 1. Did you know he previously worked at the Korean Embassy in the US? Yoon Jong Woo opened his mouth in a low voice as to say more. -It seems he met Kim Young Hee around that time. Both were active in a relief organization called ''POC'', and also regularly participated in volunteer activities abroad. It is possible that he contacted North Korea at times when he used the excuse to go to a third country. It is highly likely that he contacted Lee Cheol Jin, who took on a role related to communications and transportation in Kim Young Hee''s operations. Coincidentally, the time and country Deputy Chief 1 participated in volunteer activities were almost identical to Lee Cheol Jin''s movements. "As expected, we have to meet Lee Cheol Jin first. It''s going to be difficult. Jong Woo, please continue to dig deeper for information about Deputy Chief No. 1 and those close to him. If I''m not going to be arrested, the chief Lim won''t do anything to you so don''t worry." Kwon Taek Joo gave instructions and ended the call. He turned off the phone immediately as usual. A new guest entered the sauna. This time it was also a gray haired old man. Kwon Taek Joo started getting dressed as if nothing happened. Suddenly a look was directed towards Kwon Taek Joo. That old man looked at his belt and frowned. As soon as their eyes met, he clicked his tongue and turned his head away. Kwon Taek Joo looked at his back in the full length mirror. A clear tattoo appears just above the butt. During this time, he didn''t have time to look in the mirror, so he completely forgot about it. The existence of the tattoo caused embarrassing memories to come back. The sharp feeling of the needle piercing his skin mercilessly, the painful feeling of the ink applied to the wound, even the fingertips gently pressing down on the skin. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head. He quickly took out his clothes and put them on. He already knew the first thing to do today. -- "It''s going to hurt a lot." Kwon Taek Joo nodded at the doctor''s warning. A drape is immediately placed over the surgical site. "Hm, looks like it hasn''t been long since the engraving." The doctor muttered to himself as he touched the tattoo. A moment later, the laser turned on with a clicking sound. "Then I''ll start." Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly. Laser treatment begins with a characteristic mechanical sound. It felt like there was a flash of light on his tense skin. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly shivered. The throbbing, burning pain continued to spread, and the smell of burning raw meat also rose. Laser beams are continuously fired into damaged areas causing sharp pain. Kwon Taek Joo had made up his mind, but he still automatically groaned at the repeated stimulation on the rough flesh. "Shit." Because the dye has penetrated the dermis, the wound that needs to be treated is also deeper. The doctor was examining the burn site with a laser and clicked his tongue. Treatment was paused for a while and then started again. Cold sweat continuously poured out from the sharp pain, Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth. When the laser light shined on the tattoo, the feeling of contempt that day also suddenly arose. Some people say this is a symbol of lust. As if trampling him like that wasn''t enough, he also marked him like cattle or a slave. The burning sensation from the burning red needle was still vivid. The feeling of ink seeping bitterly into the wound still hurts. This is just a contract connecting a lord and a servant. Kwon Taek Joo clearly remembers Zhenya''s sarcastic smile. He frowned. He was determined to cut everything off, but the events in Russia still appeared indiscriminately in his mind and occupied his complicated mind. The moment Kwon Taek Joo escaped from that prison-like island, that bastard''s meaninglessly painful face was still like a dark afterimage in his heart. It gave him goosebumps. His chin was also tense. The reason Kwon Taek Joo was drawn to him in an instant was because that space was isolated with only the two of them. Because Zhenya is the only person he can talk to, in dire situations, he will turn to him as a place of refuge. There is no room for emotion in temporary compromises for survival. Therefore, nothing has changed in his nature and feelings towards him. Just like that, rationalization was like a mantra that Kwon Taek Joo repeated many times. Kwon Taek Joo recalled unpleasant memories and then realized his heart started pounding again. It was like having a terrible nightmare. A nightmare that he never wanted to return to. The skin is being burned and fluid is flowing from the wound, along with that terrible pain, the memories of the past will fade with it. There''s no reason to go back there. -- Incheon International Airport arrival hall. Large electronic billboards continuously announce flight arrivals. People who came to welcome family, relatives, customers, business partners gathered in front of the gate. Passengers passing through customs poured out endlessly. Because everyone comes from different places, their appearances and costumes are very diverse. Among them, there was one man in particular who attracted attention. He is so tall that he can be seen from afar. That''s why the accompanying passengers and the surrounding receptionists all glanced at him. Some people even stopped and looked back. It''s unknown whether this special attention comes from his unusually colorful appearance or not. The man slowly looked around the airport without paying attention to the looks of the people around him. Around every corner are the faces and voices of Koreans. A quiet smile appeared on his lips, his blue eyes sparkled a strange light. -- "Fortunately, it was only a muscle rupture. If you slide down a little further, the prognosis will not be good. But you should not overexert yourself. You must rest absolutely until you completely recover, and Monitor rehabilitation well." Chief Lim just nodded vaguely at the request of the doctor in charge. After completing the examination, the medical team went out, and Deputy Chief 1 walked in. Chief Lim tried to stand up as usual, but Deputy Chief 1 told him to lie down and held him back. Chief Lim finally sat up, Deputy Chief 1 clicked his tongue. Sear?h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "That person is also real." In addition to the two people, plainclothes police were always on duty in the hospital room. It''s part of personal protection. "Sorry, I have some personal business to attend to. Please step out for a moment." At Deputy Room 1''s request, the policemen looked at each other. "Just a little," Chief Lim added. There was no reason for them to follow orders from someone other than their superiors, and they had no obligation to follow the plans of the other two. However, they still left quietly. As soon as the door closed, the friendly smile of Deputy Manager 1 immediately disappeared. "You still don''t know your friend''s location?" "This has already attracted the intervention of the police, so it won''t be long before there will be contact. After all, he is a notable talent at NIS, so he won''t be caught easily. That''s why I advised you to choose another friend from the beginning, is that what I said?" "You''re so calm at the moment." Deputy Head 1 expressed discomfort. Chief Lim smirked and changed the subject. "Isn''t silencing Lee Cheol Jin more urgent?" "If that''s the case, then there''s no need to worry. Since he failed to carry out his orders, he will know clearly that all that remains for him is death. Even if he is killed, everyone will think it''s North Korea''s actions." Deputy Chief 1 boasted while whispering another word. "Maybe we won''t make it through today." -- The sound of an iron door opening could be heard from afar. The warden passed through many doors one after another and stopped in front of a room. "No. 342. Talk to the lawyer." He unlocked it and the door opened. However, Lee Cheol Jin sitting there had no intention of getting up immediately. The warden pulled him out as if he was used to it. He handcuffed Lee Cheol Jin''s bony wrists and gently pushed him in the back. It took a long time just to get to the interview room. Lee Cheol Jin''s lawyer, who had been sitting there before, stood up. "Please sit down." The two sat down at the warden''s request. "Long time no see." The lawyer nodded in greeting afterwards. He observed Lee Cheol Jin''s absent-mindedness. It seems that the arduous life in prison was not the only reason why Lee Cheol Jin''s face was so ruined. There were clear marks of self-injury on his neck and arms. It was said that last night he tied an electric cable to his neck and strangled himself. "Lee Cheo Jin-sshi, why do you keep trying to harm yourself?" "Do you know the feeling of someone who just waits for death?" The outcome of the trial in Korea did not seem to matter, it did not concern him, and he seemed to believe that he would die somehow. Instead of waiting to be eliminated, he chose to volunteer. Even in that heavy situation, the lawyer still smiled, then he slowly leaned back. The lawyer took off his glasses with one hand and placed them on the table. There was something strange about the eyes that appeared, the feeling of those eyes being so sharp that Lee Cheol Jin didn''t know if it was originally like that. "I heard that Kim Young Hee already has a lover?" The words were suddenly different. Even the lawyer''s tone completely changed, and he seemed to be a completely different person. However, that voice was strangely familiar. Where did Lee Cheol Jin hear it? "I saw it clearly on the boat, but it disappeared. It was the ring that Kim Young Hee wore." The lawyer raised his left hand and lightly moved his ring finger. Lee Cheol Jin''s eyes opened wide. It seemed he finally knew the cause of the unpleasant feeling of deja vu. The man in front of Lee Cheol Jin was not a lawyer, but that person, a Korean agent who fought with him at a vending machine on the ferry. The person who caused Lee Cheol Jin to be imprisoned here. Lee Cheol Jin jumped up from his seat. Then, the lawyer, no, Kwon Taek Joo disguised as a lawyer, quietly looked up at Lee Cheol Jin. Kwon Taek Joo looked straight into the eyes of Lee Cheol Jin, who was trembling with panic, and nodded for him to sit down again. "I even covered her mouth so she wouldn''t die easily. Even that disappeared." Lee Cheol Jin''s face added to the chaos. He clearly understood the meaning of the clues that Kwon Taek Joo had just thrown at him. The two people''s eyes were tense. Lee Cheol Jin''s eyes were full of doubt. "Sit down, I didn''t come here to compromise with you." "So what did you come here for?" "I wonder if you know you were stabbed in the back?" Lee Cheol Jin''s eyebrows furrowed, his suspicion deepening. Both he and Kim Young Hee seem to believe that they failed their mission simply because of their own mistakes. Kim Young Hee''s death is just self-responsibility. Looking back at the situation at that time, there was nothing suspicious. However, Kwon Taek Joo appeared again and is giving a completely different story. Kim Young Hee''s death in a state of being unable to commit suicide, and the ring''s disappearance. Just with those two questionable points, there is already a character associated with it. However, Lee Cheol Jin did not act hastily, he kept his mouth shut and endured even though his eyes wanted to inquire about many things. "Anyway, that author might be the next head of NIS." "You said director of National Intelligence?" "Even if he is a great man who sells his country, he still has to covet that position. Perhaps he can enter the political world starting from being the head of the National Intelligence Agency, but there are two other opponents. half a competitor and it was not a position that could be won with just small achievements. Meanwhile, they were also constantly looking for dishonesty in each other. Perhaps he was very worried. If Kim Young Hee''s identity is a secret, or their relationship is discovered, then even maintaining the status quo will be difficult." Lee Cheol Jin''s face darkened even more, his eyes wavering, showing confusion. Kwon Taek Joo sat up straight, looked intently at Lee Cheol Jin and continued. "If you have something to say, you better do it now. I won''t come back here anymore, no one will listen to you except me. Not even your lawyer." "Why are you trying to reveal the truth? Isn''t this a very troublesome matter?" "Of course it''s troublesome. But I''ve already been hit, so what can I do? I have to return what I received." Kwon Taek Joo smiled, revealing straight teeth. Lee Cheol Jin''s expression wavered slightly. They say you can''t spit on a smiling face, but Kwon Taek Joo is an exception. Every time he smiled, Lee Cheol Jin didn''t feel comfortable at all. It has been like that from the beginning. The trial, which has been going on for several months, is about to end. Lee Cheol Jin could guess his sentence just by the atmosphere in court. At least 10 years, if he''s lucky not to be eliminated before then. "There''s no need to think complicatedly. He abandoned you first. Is there a need to be loyal to someone like that?" Kwon Taek Joo persuaded Lee Cheol Jin again, but he just kept his mouth shut and bowed his head, not even moving. It certainly didn''t work, but it''s very difficult to believe the words of the person who personally arrested Lee Cheol Jin and put him in prison. Furthermore, to prove the crime of Deputy Division 1, Lee Cheol Jin must completely reveal himself, the organization, and the purpose of infiltration. This is an act of neglect of duty and betrayal of the country. Even after waiting for a long time, Lee Cheol Jin still had no reaction. There is no sign of compromise. This was not a place to stay for long, Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate to stand up from his seat. Until then, Lee Cheol Jin still did not move. However, there are signs of something a bit strange. Looking closely, his body was convulsing. Kwon Taek Joo immediately grabbed his neck. Ugh White foam poured out of Lee Cheol Jin''s mouth and he collapsed on the table. The eyelids are completely inverted and only the whites are visible. "Hey! Is there anyone outside?" Kwon Taek Joo shouted at the closed door. At that time, Lee Cheol Jin, who was having a seizure, grabbed Kwon Taek Joo tightly. Then, he struggled and peeled off the bandage from his lower abdomen, where there was a fresh wound from the stab wound that had just been stitched. "Ugh!" Lee Cheol Jin ran his fingers through the wound. The area was stitched open and blood flowed from the wound that had not yet fully healed. A groan came from clenched teeth due to the unbearable pain. Just by looking at it, it seemed like the pain was completely transferred away. Right after that, a small chip was picked up from Lee Cheol Jin''s bloody hand. He gave it to Kwon Taek Joo without hesitation. When Kwon Taek Joo frowned and just stared at him, Lee Cheol Jin even directly placed the chip in Kwon Taek Joo''s hand. "What''s this?" Immediately the security guards came running. They took Kwon Taek Joo out of the interview room and gave first aid to Lee Cheol Jin. The area around the quiet interview room suddenly became noisy. A prison guard approached Kwon Taek Joo. "Did he try to harm himself again?" "No. He had a sudden seizure during the interview. I wonder if he has any problems with his diet or any illness?" "That''s not true.. Things like that.." The warden stammered and looked away. He did not know whether his words would be caught red-handed by the prisoner''s lawyer. Kwon Taek Joo finally left the detention center as if he was being chased. The prison said they will contact you again when the cause of the seizure is determined. The last time Kwon Taek Joo checked, Lee Cheol Jin was completely unconscious. His face was pale, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Perhaps Deputy Chief 1 is also trying to eliminate Lee Cheol Jin. If Kwon Taek Joo is discovered to be a fake lawyer, his accusations will continue to be added. Kwon Taek Joo peeled off his artificial skin and threw it away as soon as he left the prison. He had to move faster. -- What Lee Cheol Jin gave me was a memory card. What''s in this? Just looking at the tearing of flesh and hiding it deep inside, this is definitely not an ordinary document. Kwon Taek Joo was accidentally walking towards the avenue when he stopped, because three or four patrol cars passed by one after another with sirens blaring. He turned into the next alley and moved restlessly to the narrow road that cars couldn''t pass through. Then Kwon Taek Joo found a photography studio. As soon as he stepped inside, the photographer who was eating quickly stood up and said "Welcome". Kwon Taek Joo immediately gave him the memory card. "Here, thanks." The photographer took the memory card and inserted it into the reader. Kwon Taek Joo tried to wipe off the blood but it was still unreadable, so he took it out several times and tried again. There are only photos and videos in the card. "There''s pretty much.. all of these?" The photographer turned to Kwon Taek Joo to ask for confirmation. Just as he said, there were hundreds of photos saved. Inside, Kwon Taek Joo could see Lee Cheol Jin, Kim Yeong Hee, and Deputy Chief 1. There was also a scene where only Lee Cheol Jin and Deputy Chief 1 were taken. Given the different appearance and background of the subjects, it seems that the place and time the photos were taken are different. If Lee Cheol Jin did not serve at ''POC'', it is clear that he took these scenes to prepare for the possible betrayal between his accomplices. "How long will it take to print these photos?" "There are so many that it will take several hours." The photographer replied and then moved all the images to the print folder. Then, the siren sounded outside again, this time not far away but right in the next alley. Was Kwon Taek Joo''s travel route recorded by CCTV? "What''s going on outside? It''s been so noisy since just now." The photographer glanced out of the store and returned the copied memory card. Kwon Taek Joo silently wrote something on paper and then gave it to him. "Can you send it to me as soon as you have the picture?" "Is it the prosecutor''s office?" On the paper were the words ''Prosecutor Seok Jae Hee''s Office, Prosecutor''s Office 1, Seoul Central District Prosecutor''s Office''. Kwon Taek Joo also did not explain the situation to the confused photographer but only took out 50,000 won bills. "Then thank you." The photographer nodded bewilderedly. Kwon Taek Joo bowed slightly, took the memory card and left the photo room. The photographer was left alone, looking at the money lying on the counter in disbelief. Big profits always come with a corresponding price. Perhaps he is involved in unpleasant matters. He was worried, but the place where the customer had just asked to send the photo was not anywhere else but the prosecutor''s office. At least it doesn''t seem like this has anything to do with crime. The photographer immediately put the money in his pocket and started printing. Chapter 52 - 4.6 Hide and Seek 7 Chapter 52 - 4.6 Hide and Seek 7At the hospital there were many police officers in plain clothes. Three or four people stood in front of the main gate. two people stood guard around the taxi stand and bus stop, and perhaps more people were placed inside. It''s true that he shouldn''t go in there, but Kwon Taek Joo bravely walked into the hospital. He has to check if his mother is safe. His cloak flutters with each step, inside the white cloak is a gray shirt and tie, his hair is fixed by a moderate parting and black horn-rimmed glasses hide his face and sharp eyes. Plainclothes detectives glanced at him as he passed by, but no one came to check his ID card, because anyone who looked at him could see that Kwon Taek Joo looked exactly like an internal medicine doctor at the hospital. The police not only camped at the reception desk and windows but also at the cafe and restroom on the first floor. Kwon Taek Joo naturally walked forward and comfortably responded to the greeting medical staff ''Older brother.'' Thanks to checking the location in advance. Kwon Taek Joo arrived at the hospital''s internal medicine department without getting lost. The police are also wandering around. He took a deep breath and calmly continued walking forward. "Hello", the nurses who were taking care of the patient greeted him. Even for just a moment, the eyes of the detectives who had focused on Kwon Taek Joo also stopped, but they did not suspect anything. Kwon Taek Joo tried searching for his mother''s name on the computer. He checked the patients admitted to the hospital, and the search results appeared instantly. His mother was placed in a single room because she was the subject of special surveillance. He said, "Everyone has had a hard time." and left his seat just as a nurse stepped out from behind the counter. As soon as he bowed, she tilted her head. "Oh, doctor. Isn''t today your day off?" "Ah.." S§×ar?h the ¦Çov§×lFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Hearing her voice, the inspectors turned their attention to the counter again. "I changed it to tomorrow." Kwon Taek Joo smiled and left the counter. He also nodded to the police officers who were watching, then leisurely walked to the side and entered the elevator, then he went to the 8th floor where his mother''s hospital room was located. The problem is from now on, because the place where his mother was staying was a one-person room, it was difficult to access. The police''s ability to concentrate human resources is higher, so he must also approach more cautiously. The elevator stopped at the 8th floor. The door opened but Kwon Taek Joo did not step out immediately. He checked the situation in the hallway first, but for some reason there wasn''t a single sound. Kwon Taek Joo waited a little longer and then went out. Immediately, he was bewildered because the hallway was unexpectedly empty, not seeing a single person, let alone the police. Kwon Taek Joo was suspicious as he walked through the hallway. The feeling of insecurity reached its maximum when he was about to reach the emergency exit. The door that should have been closed was slightly open, and someone was sticking their hand out of the gap. Kwon Taek Joo was about to close the door when, right then, he saw six or seven men had fainted on the emergency stairs, they appeared to be police and security Guards. Kwon Taek Joo looked around again but could not sense any other signs. He carefully approached and examined the condition of those unconscious people. They were still breathing but all their limbs were hanging down. With hardly any visible injuries. it seemed like they had been restrained for a short period of time targeting only weak points. Someone broke into this place and didn''t make any particular noise, the person''s workmanship was unusual. So what about your mother? Kwon Taek Joo''s heart was pounding, a cold air spread on the back of his neck. Immediately, Kwon Taek Joo stood up and opened the hospital room door. "..!?" He was about to rush into the hospital room but then stopped, because someone was sitting in front of his mother''s bed. Is it an intruder? Kwon Taek Joo''s heart was pounding, and the beat was getting faster. It wasn''t simply the suspense of an intruder, but more like a game that originated from an unfortunate premonition. Kwon Taek Joo is used to that appearance of sitting with his back turned. He also did not look back at Kwon Taek Joo but just sat there and expressionlessly looked down at his unconscious mother. Apparently he also heard the door open. Is it okay to run away now? Kwon Taek Joo definitely had to do that to maintain his life, but leaving his mother in that guy''s hands? But maybe he won''t be discovered. Kwon Taek Joo himself is a doctor at this hospital right now, even though he has a hard time seeing through it right away. He made up his mind and went inside. Kwon Taek Joo approached the bed and checked the amount of injections hanging in front. Only then will the view from the side become clearer. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head and looked straight into those eyes. The person calmly sitting next to his mother was Zhenya. His heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to jump out of his chest, so much so that Kwon Taek Joo was worried that the sound would reach him. The confident courage in him quickly put his tail down and ran away, his mind confused as to how he got here and what he intended to do with his mother. "Excuse me, are you the guardian?" Kwon Taek Joo had difficulty suppressing his confusion and opened his mouth. but because it was Korean. Zhenya couldn''t understand it, and his voice was different from his own. As expected, Zhenya just stared at Kwon Taek Joo. "I will check the patient''s condition a bit," he said, then looked down at his mother''s pale face. The lips were dry, the eyelashes and the corners of the eyes were sticky with white, probably marks of tears. He looked at his mother''s thin cheeks and neck, it seemed like she couldn''t eat properly. A heavy lead pressed on Kwon Taek Joo''s chest. He pretended to check the needle while stroking the back of his mother''s skinny hand. He only looked at biological signals such as heart, blood pressure, and brain waves; they are not at a dangerous level. It seems that letting his mother stay here until Kwon Taek Joo clears his crimes seems to be better. But the problem is Zhenya. He can''t let him stay with his mother. "Come out with me for a moment. I have something to say." Kwon Taek Joo tilted his head toward the door at the man who didn''t understand what he was saying. First, he planned to drag him out of the hospital room and wait for the right moment to run away. The police were everywhere, so he couldn''t just jump up and down arbitrarily. It wasn''t a hopeful plan, but Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to bet everything on it. He turned his head to go first. Zhenya also slowly lifted himself up. The distance to the door is extremely far. His body odor seemed to fill the hospital room, making Kwon Taek Joo unable to breathe comfortably. His heart was pounding uncomfortably hard and constantly putting pressure on his lungs, and his hands were numb from the stress. Kwon Taek Joo pulled the door aside. The door opened for a moment and then was immediately closed, because a hand reached out from behind and grabbed the door. Zhenya''s shadow was swallowing Kwon Taek Joo and his unique body scent was suffocating him. His mind was blank, and his body was completely stiff and unable to move. Zhenya couldn''t recognize it, now it seemed like he could break his neck at any moment. Suddenly his hand reached into his pocket. Kwon Taek Joo also unconsciously shrugged. Zhenya gently took out his phone and held it towards the door, right in front of Kwon Taek Joo. He was calling someone, a ringing sounded in Kwon Taek Joo''s ear. "drrrr.. drr.." Zhenya''s hair fluttered and he burst out laughing. The alarm siren in Kwon Taek Joo''s head continuously sounded. Right after that, Zhenya''s face approached Kwon Taek Joo''s ear. "Is it fun to play hide and seek?" The whispering voice contained satisfaction. The floor beneath his feet felt like it was collapsing. Chapter 53 - 4.7 Checkmate Chapter 53 - 4.7 CheckmateSuddenly Kwon Taek Joo was grabbed by his shoulders, he turned around to face him. Blue eyes that were cold like ice. "Ah!" Zhenya forcefully peeled off the mask on Kwon Taek Joo''s face. Even the last fortress that hid him could not hold back, Kwon Taek Joo felt like he had suddenly become naked. The man''s blue eyes sparkled wildly. In a moment, he was grabbed by the neck and was dragged. He stood on tiptoe due to the height difference, and because he was suffocated, he unconsciously grabbed Zhenya''s hand. His arms were cold, completely unlike human hands. Zhenya glanced down at the hand holding his hand tightly and then stared at Kwon Taek Joo. His eyes were so sharp. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes, filled with Zhenya''s cold, dangerous image, slowly shifted aside. He saw his mother over Zhenya''s shoulder. If the situation continues to escalate, it will be difficult to control it, and that''s something he doesn''t want to happen. S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo shook off Zhenya''s hand and used all his strength to push him away by his shoulder. While distracted, Zhenya was pushed back a little. Then he breathed softly and tilted his head to look straight at Kwon Taek Joo, a thick vein appeared on his smooth forehead. The moment he felt the danger. Kwon Taek Joo was violently pushed. His back hit the door hard, making a loud noise. His whole body ached from the terrible thrust. He saw Zhenya''s hand raised in his wavering vision. Kwon Taek Joo reflexively closed his eyes tightly. He had no chance to cope differently. and as if anticipating the terrible pain that was about to occur, the cells throughout his body began to shrink. However, after a while, Kwon Taek Joo still didn''t feel anything. He slowly raised his eyelids, the situation remained the same. as it was just before he closed his eyes. Zhenya''s hand was still as if he would hit Kwon Taek Joo immediately, and the fierce aura also did not change. The only thing that changed was that distorted face. Zhenya''s hand trembled in hesitation, as if he couldn''t understand this situation. Kwon Taek Joo was also quite confused because his actions were different from what he imagined. Kwon Taek Joo looked at Zhenya bewilderedly. Many emotions rushed into his eyes, anger, hostility, confusion and resentment. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes opened wider. Then Zhenya stopped and his hand quickly rushed in. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head away and thought this time it would be right. But there was no pain like he expected, just once again he was pushed back. Then he grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Once again, he pushed Zhenya''s hand down, but it didn''t budge. Kwon Taek Joo frowned and stared at him. In that short distance, Zhenya''s eyes also froze. "Don''t make me kill you with my hands." Zhenya wrinkled the bridge of his nose and growled, but it didn''t sound like a threat. Not only that, the hand that was squeezing Kwon Taek Joo''s neck also seemed to loosen, and suddenly his face came closer to him. The eyes of all those mixed emotions radiated a strange heat. Kwon Taek Joo quickly raised his hand and pushed his chin away. "You bastard, what are you planning to do?" Zhenya looked down at his pushing hand. The stubborn struggle between the two was like a fierce fight without any sound. Have Kwon Taek Joo really forgotten where he was and who was lying on the hospital bed? "Let me go, don''t act like that." After pushing hard, Zhenya smirked, then he gently turned his head to look towards Kwon Taek Joo''s mother''s bed. "What if I keep doing that?" "You crazy bastard!" Kwon Taek Joo shouted in surprise and then quickly lowered his voice. He quickly looked at his mother first, but she didn''t move. The moment he was relieved that the situation was defused, Zhenya suddenly pulled him into the bathroom in the hospital room. A premonition of misfortune spread throughout Kwon Taek Joo''s body. If only two people were locked in there, he would have to face something embarrassing. But even though Kwon Taek Joo tried to resist, Zhenya forcefully pushed him inside. As soon as he was thrown hard against the wall, Kwon Taek Joo''s back seemed like it broke. His lungs writhed endlessly as the cold brick wall and his chest were completely pressed together. He struggled to escape Zhenya''s hand, but the more he struggled, the more intense the strength and pressure from his side became. Zhenya tugged on Kwon Taek Joo''s pants. The lower body is pushed back due to too strong a pull. The zipper could not withstand the impact of the pulling force and was removed as if it was about to explode. The bare skin on the back is exposed intact. His eyes seemed to stop at one point on his back. Zhenya was staring at his waist, where the scar from the removed tattoo was left. "Fuck" Zhenya muttered, while Kwon Taek Joo''s spine chilled. The next moment, he grabbed his pants with a stronger grip than before. Kwon Taek Joo tried to stop it by all means, but to no avail. His pants and underwear were pulled down at the same time and his buttocks were clearly exposed. Then he heard the sound of his pants being pulled down from behind him. The insecurity that was growing inside became concrete. Kwon Taek Joo struggled and shook his arms desperately. He used his foot to push against the wall and tried to push him away, but could not overcome the monster. He was pushed against the wall again and pinned from behind. Kwon Taek Joo was suffocated between the wall and Zhenya as if he were trapped in the hands of a crocodile. Kwon Taek Joo was tired but he still lifted his elbow and pushed him. He continued to push his thigh that was approaching him. Afraid that even a small sound would leak out, Kwon Taek Joo tried to keep quiet. There was no sound, only fierce movements back and forth, his whole body quickly drenched in sweat. "...." Suddenly outside the door became noisy. Police deployed everywhere in the hospital seemed to have received suspicious signs. They must have discovered their unconscious colleagues at the emergency exit so they were ready to invade the hospital room immediately. If arrested now, Kwon Taek Joo will be forced to accept all charges. Prosecutor Seok has not yet received the photos, and the original that can be used as evidence is still on Kwon Taek Joo. Moreover, he is still involved with the bastard he is suspected of colluding with. There were signs that the hospital room door was carefully opened from the outside, but Zhenya still did not give up. His eyes looked out the door for a moment and then turned back to Kwon Taek Joo. Fifty thousand thoughts mixed in his head. Now or never. No matter how optimistic he was about the future situation, the outcome would only be the worst. "Choose." A low murmur suddenly reached Kwon Taek Joo''s ears. Was he hallucinating in an extremely urgent situation? However, his heart was beating strongly with a completely different feeling than before. In this moment of despair, it seemed as if a rope had been thrown down. He reached back and placed his hand on the back of Zhenya''s hand that was gripping his ass. Zhenya just stared at Kwon Taek Joo''s hand, overlapping his hand. There is only one way out of the current crisis. He couldn''t know if it would work or not, but he could only try it first. Kwon Taek Joo let go of his tightly closed lips and begged. "Please.." The voice was mixed with a sigh, but Zhenya did not react at all, only the hand that was leaning against the wall was clenched into a fist. "Please." Immediately after that, Kwon Taek Joo''s body was turned around. Zhenya''s melancholy gaze was fixed on him. Even in such an urgent situation, the wrinkles on his forehead and his concerned eyes still fell on him. "Don''t complain later." In the man''s hand holding his arm tightly, Kwon Taek Joo felt a restlessness that did not match his appearance. Zhenya looked into his eyes suspiciously and pressed her hand firmly down on Kwon Taek Joo''s hand, waiting for an answer. "Answer me, you clung to me first." There''s no other way. Kwon Taek Joo nodded patiently as if agreeing with himself. Then, the hand that was ready to break his arm finally let go. The bathroom door handle is pushed down. It seemed that the police were also monitoring the situation from outside. Zhenya grabbed the door handle and without hesitation pulled the door inside. "Ah!" The door opened without warning, they lost their balance and fell loudly. One policeman was hit in the back of the neck, the other was kicked in the face and lost consciousness. The last policeman who was pointing his gun hastily had his wrist completely bent backwards Zhenya simply controlled all three people and then turned to look at Kwon Taek Joo, before he could even put on his pants. He nodded and left the bathroom first. He followed behind while re-zipping his pants. Kwon Taek Joo looked back once more. He didn''t know if it''s because of the noise going on or not, but his mother''s face is wrinkled little by little. It looks like his mother is about to wake up, he has to leave here. Kwon Taek Joo took the gun out of his jacket and hurriedly left the hospital room. -- "Over there!" "East of the ward!" Being a Noisy hallway, a group of police were running from the opposite side. Zhenya did not slow down. He moved away, took the gun out of his chest and did not hesitate to open fire. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have time to stop it. The police panicked and hid behind the wall during the sudden shooting. Meanwhile, the two of them coordinated well and ran down the hallway next to each other even though there was no plan discussion. When someone appeared in front of him, Kwon Taek Joo tried to dissuade Zhenya from shooting and running away, wanting to avoid collision as much as possible. Zhenya replied quite obediently while clicking his tongue in annoyance. The man is so weird. Even when pretending to be his colleague, even though Kwon Taek Joo was in a dangerous situation, he still just stood by and watched. But now that man is helping him without offering any price. Maybe because he was so surprised, that his heart kept pounding. How long has it been running? The stairs below became noisy. Police who received requests for assistance seemed to be rushing in. Kwon Taek Joo cannot continue to stay at the hospital like this because not only will he soon become a rat in a rat, but he will also harm innocent people. "Where did you park your car?" Zhenya tilted his chin toward the street corner that was about to appear before him. He ran after him around the comer, and the police appeared. They threw a smoke bomb and warned that they would shoot if the two continued to move. The entire area became chaotic as smoke rose. Taking advantage of that chaos, the two ran to the emergency exit. The emergency radio, voices and footsteps mixed together so the stairs vibrated loudly. The siege was constantly tightening from top to bottom and from bottom to top, it seemed there was no other way but to go through it. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and jumped down the stairs below. Immediately, he met the police climbing up. The moment they were about to take out their guns, Kwon Taek Joo rushed straight at them. A group of people were swept away by Kwon Taek Joo and rolled down the stairs. Zhenya followed behind and helped Kwon Taek Joo stand up. He then held his head, waist and legs tightly and then braced himself to kick at those who tried to fight back The two finally went down the stairs. Kwon Taek Joo stood in front of the emergency exit for a moment to observe the pursuit and then went into the hallway. Immediately there was the sound of quick footsteps following, and the two people''s steps also became more hasty. When the two of them ran to the end of the hallway, a window appeared right in front of them. Tempered glass windows are no different than a retaining wall. Kwon Taek Joo intended to turn back, but the special task force had already been brought in and was blocking the front. "Stop right there!" "If you don''t surrender, we will shoot!" The loaded rifles were simultaneously pointed at the two people. If they moved even a little bit, they would probably become two honeycombs. What should he do? Kwon Taek Joo slowly raised his hands and thought. At that moment, Zhenya silently approached him. Even with that small movement, the gun muzzles moved towards him simultaneously. "Hold on tight." Zhenya whispered so loudly that only Kwon Taek Joo could hear. He looked at Zhenya in bewilderment, and his arm suddenly wrapped around his waist. At the same time, he threw something into the front window. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes along with the eyes of the opposing commander team chased that small object. Nearly all of them had the same bewildered expression. A crack appeared around the small object and suddenly the entire tempered glass cracked into a radioactive form. Zhenya immediately dragged him to the broken glass window. As soon as it was touched, the glass pieces broke into pieces. Kwon Taek Joo threw him into the air as he leaned over and hugged Zhenya. A long fire hose stretched out into his chaotic vision. The task force ran to the window immediately afterward. Meanwhile, two people were hanging on the fire hydrant and swaying at the height of the 2nd floor. Without saying anything, they both jumped down to the grass. The special task force, immediately after confirming that the two people were not normal, and opened fire without hesitation. Kwon Taek Joo ran through the bushes to avoid the bullets, the back door appearing before his eyes. Zhenya arrived first and immediately threw something at him. Kwon Taek Joo caught it and realized it was a motorcycle helmet, he was surprised. "Didn''t you drive here?" "I never said I drove here." Zhenya suddenly started the engine. Kwon Taek Joo quickly put on his helmet and sat in the back. "Damn it, I''m going straight to hell today." He was still muttering indignantly when the motorbike sped away without warning. His unbalanced body stuck to Zhenya''s back. The police following behind quickly opened fire. Dozens of bullets flew but the motorbike still gilded comfortably and avoided everything, It ran straight towards the back door. But nothing is easy. The patrol cars waiting outside the back door blocked the front. The motorbike going downhill gradually accelerated. No matter how big the body is, there is no chance of winning when colliding with a car, but now if they hold the brakes, the two people will not be able to overcome the speed they are going. Zhenya pulled the handlebars hard, the front wheel lifted up and the entire motorbike immediately flew up. The moment of floating in the air took place like a slow motion movie. Kwon Taek Joo even saw the officer in the patrol car widen his eyes in surprise. Immediately afterwards, the motorcycle crashed onto the roof of the patrol car with a loud noise. The warning light must have been broken. Just like that, the motorcycle weighed down on the ceiling and lowered to the road surface. The car fortunately did not turn off the engine, the tires remained intact, maintained speed and entered the avenue. Kwon Taek Joo''s hair and clothes fluttered due to the wind. The car glided on the highway between fast-moving vehicles on the road. If this keeps up, he will fall to the ground. He hugged Zhenya''s waist tightly. At that moment, the guy''s eyes that were pointed towards the front fell on Kwon Taek Joo''s arm. The peace did not last long when the siren sounded again in the distance. Kwon Taek Joo turned to face the siren, and three or four police cars came from the opposite lane. The vehicle of the commando team following from the hospital is also tightening. Kwon Taek Joo kept looking forward and back in worry, the motorbike following closely to a truck. Even though it was as dangerous as being hit by a car immediately, Zhenya still maintained the same speed, so the police could not rush to get close. The motorbike ran all the way down the highway and a large intersection appeared ahead. The go straight signal is about to turn to stop. The police cars running on the opposite side were rearranging their ranks as if preparing to attack. If they stop now, their retreat will be blocked by a commando vehicle chasing from behind. The sidewalk starting from the end of the pedestrian street is not wide enough for a motorbike to pass because there are too many trees. And if you just ignore the signal and turn left, there is a very high risk of colliding with another vehicle going straight ahead. However, Zhenya''s speed did not decrease, on the contrary, the motorbike accelerated to maximum speed. He ran out between the cars waiting for the signal to go straight. The signal light ahead turned green and the cars waiting at the stop line simultaneously accelerated. At the same time, Zhenya''s motorcycle passed in front of the cars going straight, Zhenya tilted the motorcycle to avoid falling from the excessive rotational force and immediately, the road surface and the two people''s bodies seemed to touch. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly and hugged Zhenya tighter. The cars intending to go straight suddenly braked and honked loudly. In a moment, the intersection became so chaotic that even the police could not move. Leaving that commotion behind, Zhenya did not hesitate to launch into the empty left lane. Even after the moment of crisis had passed, Kwon Taek Joo''s arms still hugged Zhenya tightly. His limbs seemed paralyzed. Because of the life threatening situation, the hair on his whole body stood up and he got goosebumps. His fingertips trembled. Kwon Taek Joo gasped and then he heard a familiar sound above his head. That was the sound of a helicopter''s rotor blades. The helicopter flying from behind quickly caught up with the motorbike. Not only that, police cars were also crowded together at every intersection "Stop. If you don''t stop, you''ll be shot at!" Warnings sounded several times from the following police car. Zhenya ignored it and continued driving, all car windows rolled down. That is a sign of preparing to shoot. Suddenly Zhenya turned the steering wheel to the left, the motorbike crossed the center line and started running in the opposite direction. Cars driving in the opposite direction honked loudly. While the police cars hesitated, a road leading to an overpass appeared right in front of them, and a median strip also appeared on the main road. Now, even police cars cannot get through there. However, the two of them could not completely escape under the helicopter. Even if they cut off one team. the support team would come from the other side. Rather than surrender, Kwon Taek Joo nervously stared at Zhenya. He still didn''t slow down. All he could do was hug him tightly, pressing his forehead against his back and tightening the arms that were holding him, ignoring what was happening even for just a moment. As soon as the speed reached its peak, the motorbike crashed straight into the edge of the fence. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes and foresaw the last thing. The fence seemed to be torn apart with a fierce friction sound. The motorcycle jumped off the road and the two people were pushed into the air. A sudden blockage occurred on a smooth traffic road. The helicopter rotated in a large circle and observed the situation below. Smoke rising from the accident scene obscured visibility, so it took a long time for the police to grasp the situation with the remains of the motorbike and the fence blocking the road. All vehicles traveling on 4 lanes were stuck on the road. However, no matter how much they searched around, they couldn''t find the target. The number of surrounding motorists curious to see what was going on continued to increase, but other than that there was no other chaos. Chapter 54 - 4.8 Checkmate 2 Chapter 54 - 4.8 Checkmate 2The two of them entered the empty motel. Taek Joo was completely exhausted. The moment it fell from above, the motorbike luckily landed on a passing truck, otherwise if it hadn''t both of them would have been arrested. Now, being able to still breathe was a blessing. The siren still sounded in his ears. S§×ar?h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The room was full of old things. Unknown stains were scattered all over the wallpaper, the corners of the furniture were scuffed, and there was no way to tell when the bed sheets had last been changed. But anyway, a hiding place like this was good enough. Taek Joo raised his hand to stroke his face, persistent fatigue came over him, right now he just wanted to lie down and sleep. Taek Joo sighed and turned his head, immediately making eye contact with Zhenya. The guy was sitting at the table next to the window. Taek Joo thought that if it was just them two alone, he would definitely be beaten, but unexpectedly, Zhenya just looked at him quietly. Taek Joo stared at Zhenya for a moment then stood up. He rummaged around in drawers and closets, and soon a dusty first aid box was found. Inside there was an ointment box with the medicine inside spilling out, bandages faded to yellow, disinfectant. He sighed. They weren''t good enough, but in this situation there was no other way. Taek Joo held them and approached Zhenya. Taek Joo pushed the table back a bit and sat on it. Zhenya just watched him without saying a word. He returned that persistent gaze for a moment then pulled his arm towards him. There was quite a bit of blood flowing out of Zhenya''s upper left arm, possibly from the bullet passing by or from impact somewhere, but at first glance there seemed to be no bullets or debris inside. For proper treatment, Taek Joo unbuttoned Zhenya''s shirt button by button. Despite having had sex many times before, it was strange to see Zhenya with his shirt off. His fingertips stiffened from the useless tension, and from that persistent gaze. The shirt opened to reveal his large body. Taek Joo clicked his tongue and pulled his shirt back over his shoulders. Zhenya, who had been watching since then, suddenly smiled softly. Taek Joo examined the injured area. The wound was quite deep so stitching was inevitable He poured disinfectant. The transparent medicine mixed with the flowing blood caused bright red bubbles to appear on the wound. It would have been very painful, but Zhenya didn''t flinch. Ignoring that passionate look on his face, Taek Joo found hemostatic medicine in the first aid box. At that moment, Zhenya, who had been obedient until now, suddenly stood up. The guy''s shadow covered Taek Joo''s face. The moment he turned his head, his face came closer and his warm lips touched Taek Joo''s cheek, exactly above his chin. What are you doing?" Taek Joo frowned and tilted his head to avoid it. Zhenya didn''t pay any attention and just put his hands on the table and moved closer. He pressed his lips down around Taek Joo''s chin and then gradually raised them above his cheekbones. A gentle rubbing sound rang out, the hairs on his ears stood up. Taek Joo''s head bowed in embarrassment, his upper body was pulled back. Zhenya used his hand to support Taek Joo and held him tightly so he couldn''t dodge him, then moved his lips to his mouth. Zhenya''s hot lips touched the corner of his mouth and then pulled away. For a moment, their eyes met. The next moment, Zhenya attacked more fiercely, breaking the boundary that Taek Joo had tried his best to build. He lost and tried pushing his shoulder, but it had no effect. Zhenya used his whole body weight to press Taek Joo down on the table. At first, his lips just randomly touched his lips, but then Zhenya tilted his head so that the two lips met without a gap. Taek Joo was shocked by the unexpected kiss. Although he had made love many times with Zhenya, the two had never kissed. Zhenya used his hand to cover Taek Joo''s eyes, who was thinking absentmindedly, then he pursed his lips. Zhenya rubbed his tongue against his teeth and dug deep inside to lick Taek Joo''s tongue. Even then, Taek Joo still stubbornly refused. Zhenya suddenly bit his lower lip. "Ah.." Taek Joo frowned and moaned. When Zhenya gently pressed his tongue inside, the soft corners all over his body seemed to harden, making Taek Joo excited. Zhenya''s hot breath even reached Taek Joo''s throat. Breaths mixed together and sounds came from his wet lips, his thick eyelashes brushing his cheeks and his eyelids tickling. Zhenya''s body odor took over his sense of smell. "ha..ah" Taek Joo tilted his head and panted. Zhenya also tilted his head and swallowed his lips again. The table carrying the weight of the two of them shook dangerously as if it might collapse in an instant. For a moment, it was just lips and tongues intertwined. It wasn''t Kwon Taek Joo''s first kiss but for some reason his heart was beating like crazy. The breath he couldn''t exhale or swallow echoed in his throat, and his vision blurred for a moment. Zhenya''s lips only parted from his when Taek Joo choked. He coughed until his face turned red, and in the process his pants fell off. Taek Joo shivered at the feeling of emptiness down there. The shaking table suddenly turned over. The back of his neck rang. Taek Joo was dragged away by Zhenya without having time to realize the pain, his vision was reversed. That was because he was thrown hard onto the bed. -- The old mattress creaked Zhenya pressed Taek Joo down and sat up. His hands groped his body hastily like an animal that had been starving for days. Suddenly he was grabbed by the collar. Realizing something was wrong, Taek Joo stopped his hand, but Zhenya ended up tearing his shirt. Suddenly Taek Joo felt a chill. Not stopping there, Zhenya''s hand moved down. The wind blew onto the dick in Zhenya''s hand. The mass of flesh covered with unfamiliar body heat trembled. Taek Joo''s face was restless. Zhenya moved his thumb over the dick he held in his hand. Zhenya slowly bent down and pressed his lips along Taek Joo''s chest bone and toned abs. A moment later, he suddenly raised his head and looked into Taek Joo''s eyes. When Zhenya pressed his dick, Taek Joo''s eyebrows furrowed. Zhenya asked, looking straight into his dark eyes. Why did you run away? Didn''t you rely on me to survive? You clung to me first. Why?" There we go again. "You want me, take the initiative." "Ugh.. What the hell are you on about?" Taek Joo frowned as the pressure on Zhenya''s hand increased. He couldn''t understand what he said. However, Zhenya ignored Taek Joo''s question and just continuously massaged his crotch. Taek Joo groaned and spread his legs, his hand that was being held tightly by Zhenya was also pressed down on the bed. Zhenya stared at his clearly exposed crotch then opened his mouth and lowered his head. "Ha" His cock was tightly surrounded by his warm mouth, the feeling of sharp teeth gliding vividly across sensitive skin made his leg kick. For a moment, Taek Joo''s whole body had goosebumps, but unlike his neck that automatically twisted, his lower abdomen wanted more pleasure and just stuck to Zhenya''s face. "Ahh!" Taek Joo moaned at the feeling of both warmth and tightness from Zhenyas mouth. Taek Joo''s thighs continuously vibrated as if they were on fire. His lower abdomen swayed with each movement as Zhenya''s neck bent. Taek Joo frowned at his body''s too real reaction. Even though he wanted more pleasure, he couldn''t let go of his reason. His dick was taken in Zhenyas mouth and sucked hard, Taek Joo''s knees once again shook from the strong feeling of absorption. His whole body heated up and grinding sounds came from between his tightly clenched teeth. Zhenya pressed down on his twitching thigh and he quickly moved his head up and down. "ah... ha... ahhh..." Taek Joo shook his head repeatedly with moans he couldn''t swallow. Something inside him seemed to be sucked out every time Zhenya took him further. Just as his vision blurred from that strong pleasure, the stimulation between his legs suddenly disappeared. The intense heat that was approaching its climax suddenly disappeared. The continuous panting breath from the throat suddenly disappeared in vain. "..?" Taek Joo had difficulty opening his tightly closed eyes. He saw his dick was red and still hard. He moaned pitifully. Zhenya licked his lips covered in saliva while looking at Taek Joo. What was this bastard planning to do? The sexual desire coming from Zhenya made Taek Joo''s entire stomach twitch. He frowned in pain as he stared at Zhenya. He reached out and opened the desk drawer next to the bed, which contained the disposable gel usually provided in most motels. Zhenya used his teeth to bite the wrapper, the clear liquid flowed into Taek Joo''s buttocks, his body was startled by the cold feeling. Taek Joo''s entire lower abdomen, muscles and thighs were quickly drenched, the wet and slippery feeling was extremely uncomfortable. Since then, his hot dick had no chance to cool down, but on the contrary, it had stood up strongly and defiantly. Zhenya looked down at Taek Joo who was grumbling with unquenchable lust and declared. "If you beg, then I''ll give it to you." What? Taek Joo opened his eyes wide and gritted his teeth. He reached out his hand, intending to relief himself. But Zhenya didn''t even allow that. The bastard grabbed both of his wrists tightly. Taek Joo wanted to kick him away, but his legs had been pressed open by him. He wanted to escape that cramped pain, but he couldn''t do it alone. No matter how many times he tried to escape Zhenya''s grip, Taek Joo only lost more strength. Taek Joo rubbed his whole body trying to do something. Suddenly, there was something strange on his thigh, something hard and hot was pounding against his soft skin. In response, Zhenya''s large body moved little by little, his penis, already hard, was rubbing against his thigh. Zhenya rubbed his cock hard and stubbornly looked down at Taek Joo''s face. "Ugh... Ugh..." Taek Joo''s toes turned white and the dense blood vessels on his neck turned red. "Ahahh" Zhenya''s finger fidgeted and then slammed into his hole, but it didn''t penetrate with all its force, just slightly rotated at the entrance. Zhenyas'' situation seemed to be no better than Kwon Taek joo''s. The guy''s body temperature was clearly rising, his continuous panting was rough and dull, his broad shoulders were moving up and down with difficulty, and Zhenya''s muscles were constantly tightening and relaxing. That was patience Taek Joo had never seen before. Zhenyas dick continuously slid against the gel. Taek Joo''s hard lower body shook violently. Zhenya''s intense gaze fell on Taek Joo. He seemed to be asking if he was going to beg or not. The back of his neck was hot and angry. No, that wasn''t the only reason why he was suddenly upset. The urge of his heart to wonder if it would be better to give up made his heart stir. And at that moment, Taek Joo''s lower stomach suddenly pushed lightly, it was so light that he couldn''t even notice it. Zhenya''s cock was pressing against his entrance. Every time his hard dick touched his soft hole, a moan came out. Taek Joo''s thighs trembled with joy, his eyes were dreamy and his cheeks were wet and pink. Zhenya watched him with a satisfied smile spreading across his lips Zhenya seemed not to care and left Taek Joo alone. And then Taek Joo''s movements became bolder. He didn''t stop at lightly pushing on Zhenyas stomach, but turned around and rubbed Zhenyas dick on his ass. Zhenya licked his lower lip and observed, then pulled back slightly. "Huh?" Taek Joo stopped suspiciously, Zhenya pulled his cock back as if nothing had happened. Right after that, Taek Joo''s back arched further and tried to push itself in. But this time Zhenya also backed away. Taek Joo tilted his head in frustration. Slowly reaching its limit. His hands were still tied tightly and he couldn''t move and his dick was so painful that he thought it would be better to cut it off. Because he couldn''t breathe comfortably, even his lungs were burning "Damn it.. Do something, you bastard!" Taek Joo couldn''t bear it anymore and screamed. His face turned red with anger. A triumphant smile spread across Zhenya''s face at the same time the cock slammed right into Taek Joo''s seething hole. "Ahh!" His prostate was penetrated all at once, his stomach was filled quickly and Taek Joo''s jaw clenched. His shoulders and chest also bulged, revealing a strong feeling of rejection. Zhenya sucked on Taek Joo''s nipples and stroked his soft waist. "Ha, ha.. I''m gonna..." Zhenya enjoyed the tightness for a moment then slowly thrusted his hips. He pulled out and then immediately slammed back in. Nausea rose as all parts of his stomach were pushed up at the same time. Taek Joo gritted his teeth and endured it. When he opened his eyes, he could see his legs spread open, Zhenyas every move was clearly imprinted on him. But when he closed his eyes, the feeling of his cock moving in and out of his body only became more vivid. "Ahh.. ha" Taek Joo picked up a pillow to cover his face. If he didn''t do that, the moans he didn''t want to hear would probably come out in disarray. because he was constantly overstimulated, he naturally got used to it. Taek Joo tried to justify but he couldn''t lie to his body that was being honest about its desires. Every time Zhenya''s dick penetrated deep into his stomach, he unconsciously trembled, the strong stimulation spreading as if the reins were being removed. Their bodies interlocked without rest, Zhenya bit Taek Joo''s neck and continued thrusting. "Ha!" Taek Joo''s whole body trembled and for a moment, it seemed like all he could see were stars, the tingling feeling originating from his stomach did not dissipate immediately but spread throughout his body. He looked at Zhenya with suspicion. "Haugh, uh, ah, ahhh...!" Taek Joo moaned like he was screaming and he trembled. Zhenya suddenly lifted Taek Joo''s legs to his shoulders, then raised his knees and thrusted in and out faster. Taek Joo''s whole body convulsed and he came, his thighs stiffened, his eyelids opened and closed continuously and his vision gradually became white. "Ah! Fuck!" His whole body tensed up and Taek Joo roared like an animal, his hair standing on end. At the same time, the cum boiling inside him surged out. "Ahh.. ha." Taek Joo''s lips trembled and he panted, his sweaty chest and stomach swayed as well, the exhilarating feeling of release and the feeling of exhaustion coming at the same time. His whole body was sticky and uncomfortably slippery. His eyelids trembled tightly closed and then opened again, the blurry, shaking scene was finally becoming clear. Taek Joo could see the ceiling of the motel that he had never noticed before. Is that why? Why was Zhenya heavier? Taek Joo''s lungs were choked when the man collapsed on top of him. "get off!" He said and pushed Zhenya away. But Zhenya didn''t budge. He didn''t move away, nor did he move his dick still inside Taek Joo. Something was wrong, he looked at Zhenya curiously. With the little strength he had left, he pushed Zhenya away. His body fell to the side. His eyelids were closed silently as if he passed out, his bloodless face was streaked with sweat and his breathing was labored. "Hey," he called, shaking Zhenya. No reaction. He slapped Zhenya cheek but he didn''t even lift his eyebrows. It seemed Zhenya was in shock from losing so much blood. Even in that situation, his throbbing boner was still inside his body. Taek Joo slowly pulled himself out. A small moan escaped him as he tried to escape from his trapped body, goosebumps rising on the back of his neck as his tight ass suddenly became loose. Chapter 55 - 4.9 Checkmate 3 Chapter 55 - 4.9 Checkmate 3Taek Joo crawled slowly to the floor. The bed sheets were stained with blood. Taek Joo doesn''t want anything to do with Zhenya anymore. He had no intention of returning to such an abnormal relationship. He was nothing more than an unconscious disaster. If he ran away now, he could escape this guy. If Taek Joo returned to the hospital while Zhenya was unconscious and ran away with his mother. Just thinking about it made his heart beat faster. Finally making a decision, he put on the clothes that were scattered on the floor. Sorry Zhenya, but now you have to find your own way. Zhenyas injury itself wasn''t too serious, just because of vigorous exercise and no reasonable treatment, the amount of blood he lost was quite large. So if Taek Joo escaped alone, there would be no danger to Zhenya. Even if this is an uninhabited inn, there would definitely be a manager, so they would definitely find out. "Why.." That was the moment Taek Joo just turned away. Zhenyas voice rang out from behind. He was startled and turned his head back. The blue eyes were still tightly closed and seemed to be muttering meaningless things. Fortunately, he was still able to leave safely. But he couldn''t move as if he was stuck to the floor. Taek Joo shook his head angrily at those meaningless feelings. He couldn''t even imagine or be confident about what would happen later. If you don''t intend to deal with it, it''s better to shake it off early. He quickly walked to the door, grabbed the doorknob and went out. And once again, the small whisper reached his ears ".. Taek Joo.." He didn''t understand why he was heartbroken. He didn''t think Zhenya could call him by such a sad name. Taek Joo''s heart stirred. His heart was beating wildly, he frowned in discomfort, even his naturally curly hair was now more messy. A trace of regret rose in his impudent conscience. Just try to ignore it and walk, but his feet won''t move. Why should he feel guilty about that monster? Taek Joo stood in front of the door for a moment, confused. Then he tilted his head angrily and shouted. "Damn it, I''ll be back!" He slammed the door. Taek Joo was still inside though, not outside. Even so, the question continuously echoed in his mind whether this was true. Taek Joo took a hesitant step and walked to the table. A first aid kit was overturned underneath him, and he rummaged through spilled medications to find powdered hemostatic drugs. Taek Joo picked it up and looked at the bed. When Taek Joo''s weight was placed on it, the mattress tilted to one side. Zhenyas face was covered in sweat, and he was even wheezing. He sprayed a lot of hemostatic medicine while clicking his tongue. Then he put gauze on it and fixed it with tape. Even after finishing his work, Taek Joo still sat there. With his eyes quietly closed, Zhenya looked quite handsome. No, his face was beautiful to begin with. It''s also because of those unusual eyes and physique that made Taek Joo''s feelings even more ambiguous. Even in the dark, his ivory golden hair still shimmered gently. He looked bewildered and then unconsciously reached out his hand. Taek Joo looked down at his hands in surprise He''s crazy. He couldn''t turn away now. The reason why Zhenya, who should have been in Russia, went to Korea, and the reason why he was shot and injured was because of Taek Joo himself. -- "There''s nothing to worry about. It''s safe for now. Oh, this cell phone? I just borrowed it from someone else for a while." In his hazy consciousness, Zhenya heard a familiar voice. Raising his heavy eyelids, Taek Joo''s back appeared dimly little by little. It looked like he was talking to someone on the phone. He must have been unconscious for quite a while, Zhenya couldn''t remember why he was lying there. Reviewing the memories of the previous night, he remembered pushing Taek Joo to the limit. As he waited for him to latch onto him first, Zhenya tried to suppress his rising lust. When he finally got what he wanted, it felt like all the liquid in his body evaporated instantly. But after that, Zhenya looked down at the bandage on his shoulder. He didn''t remember putting it on himself, so it must have been Taek Joo''s work. Why didn''t he run away? If he was determined, he probably could have run away. But why was Taek Joo still here? Zhenya reached out to see if the man he saw now was an illusion. His straight back was touched by his fingertips. He even glanced back when he felt something touch his back. The two looked at each other without saying anything. Taek Joo continued the call in that state. "Anyway, I wish you all the best. I''ll be in touch later." He quickly hung up and threw his cell phone aside. When checking the call list, Zhenya saw some numbers that looked quite familiar. Not knowing what was going on, Zhenya turned on the TV. The news broadcast on TV is reporting what was reported last night. The theme is nothing more than a chase that takes place in the middle of Seoul during the day. The content wasn''t beyond Taek Joo''s expectations. Charges of impersonating a lawyer, charges of plotting to assassinate Lee Cheol-jin, charges of obstruction of official duties and destruction of public property, and charges of causing injury to police officers attempting to arrest were added to the existing charges. While considering complex countermeasures, a metallic sound suddenly rang out. When he turned his head, Zhenya had sat up and was twisting his handcuffed wrists, his eyes showing discomfort. "Is this fun to you?" "From now on, I will try to threaten you. I will release you if you obediently obey." "Listen to what I want first." Tired of acting, Taek Joo made it clear that he had no other choice. You said you would agree with me first." "Do you even know what you''re asking of me?" "That wasn''t a question, it was a threat, you bastard." He frowned fiercely, it wasn''t at all scary "Taek Joo. Don''t you think you should make a better deal than threaten me?" He was clearly smiling, but it didn''t look pleasant at all. In fact, if it''s not a threat, then what if it''s an offer? Having only one thing to say, Taek Joo shrugged and explained quite abstractly. It''s not fair to have to throw away a car like this, so I''m thinking about reorganizing the traffic, but I need your help. So, please help me." Taek Joo raised his chin slightly. Confident eyes directed straight at Zhenya. The guy tilted his head as if he wanted to say something, but he was sure of his suggestions. "Kid, you should be nice to me." Without a doubt, Zhenyas eyebrows furrowed. But just for a moment, he smiled coldly and brushed it aside. He seemed to know exactly what he wanted to say. Taek Joo took out the memory card and placed it down in front of Zhenya. "This is the reason why I''m being chased. I want you to hand it over to the prosecutor in charge of the case. It won''t be easy. The police are everywhere. Even the execution order has probably been issued." The tone of the request was quite sincere, but the expression on Zhenya''s face was quite dissatisfied. Taek Joo''s plan couldn''t even guarantee his safety. But that was the only way, he asked Zhenya once more. "It''s the original, so you have to take it with you. No matter how you think about it, it''s the only way. I don''t know about others, but with a monster like you, I can trust it and leave it to you." There was nothing more to say but trust each other. It''s not like he''s completely unaware of Taek Joo''s situation or circumstances. Zhenya obediently held the memory card in his hand, then he waved it gently and made a bid. "In retrospect, doesn''t hiring a prostitute also come at a price?" Taek Joo curled his mouth as if he had known Zhenya was going to say that. S~ea??h the n?vel_Fire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Of course. If everything ends well, III think about taking us seriously. It will be quite interesting to try to tame someone like you." "Who''s taming who?" Zhenya frowned as if he had just been spat on. Taek Joo happily explained further. "You''ll chase me wherever I go. I''m sick of running away now. And if I don''t want to run away then I''ll have to compromise with reality to some extent. So, I''ll stay with you. it''ll be difficult to kill you straight away, but it is what it is." For a moment, Zhenyas face was blank, looking like he had been hit hard on the head. Blue eyes filled with images of Taek Joo. He rarely smiles at Zhenya. Even so, Zhenya couldn''t come to a conclusion on whether or not Taek joo was trustable. Zhenya leant back and snapped his fingers at Taek Joo. "1 star.. I''m not paying for any of the services I received. Now come here" He truly was a businessman. As requested, Taek Joo climbed onto the bed. Soon, he was within Zhenya''s reach. He sat quietly observing Taek Joo then suddenly turned around. Immediately afterwards, Zhena''s lips roughly intertwined with his. Looking at Zhenya coveting Taek Joo''s lips with frowning eyebrows, he suddenly felt something very affectionate. He looked at that strange face and slowly closed his eyes, his whole body was pulled by a strong force, his heart began to beat strongly again. Taek Joo felt like he was stuck in a trap. Chapter 56 - 4.10 Checkmate 4 Chapter 56 - 4.10 Checkmate 4NIS headquarters was in a state of emergency. The chase that took place in the city center after Taek Joo invaded the hospital couldn''t avoid the fierce bullets of the media. Many voices criticized the incompetence of public authorities when it became known that the wanted man had escaped, despite traffic being paralyzed and civil damage having occurred. Furthermore, when Lee Cheol Jin was arrested as a suspect in the case and was mysteriously poisoned while awaiting trial, things became even more noisy both inside and outside. That''s why they had to capture Taek Joo. Someone must be responsible for this. When the situation became serious, Chief Lim, who was in the hospital, also rushed to headquarters. He hadn''t even left work since last night and was continuously receiving status reports every hour. No one knew Taek Joo''s whereabouts. Everything went according to plan, although it was a little noisy. Now, as long as they had a proper ritual offering, everything would be arranged smoothly. The only obstacle was that Chief Lim doesn''t have much time left. A knock sounded on the door and an employee entered the office. He was assigned to monitor Yoon Jong Woo''s phone usage. Deputy Chief 1 accompanying him could not hide his concern and asked what was going on. "A while ago, I received a call on Yoon Jong Woo''s cell phone." "Have you checked the sender yet?" "Okay. This number is in the name of a Russian named Yevgeny Vissarionovich Bogdanov." "Where is the call from?" "It is confirmed to be near Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do." "Alright." Deputy Chief 1 clenched his fist. Chief Lim also nodded. Now was the time for him to complete what had been planned. The employee was still waiting for further instructions. He sat politely. "Immediately send a cooperation dispatch to the local police station. Let our elite agents participate." "How?" "I will be directly in charge." The employee who was listening to the order looked puzzled. Managers or executives are often only informed about the situation in the control room and give instructions, but do not work directly in the field. Of course, this is not unreasonable as Chief Lim was also a special agent. However, he wanted to make sure he hadn''t heard wrong. "Are you going to join?" "I have to go. One way or another, he''s my subordinate, so shouldn''t I go catch him myself?" "Then I''ll go too." Deputy Chief 1 who was listening suddenly spoke up. The employee wondered why, as this was truly an unusual situation. "I will prepare as you said." "One more thing. Yoon Jong Woo from the support team, is he at work yet?" "Not yet." "Is he at home?" "Yes. He was spotted leaving early this morning." Chief Lim rubbed his chin and thought for a moment. Immediately after being contacted by Taek Joo, Yoon Jong Woo disappeared, he must have received some instructions. Manager Lim knows Taek Joo well because the time the two of them worked together wasn''t short. Even when Taek Joo is arrested, he is not a person who gives up easily. Taek Joo must have prepared a plan to deal a blow to the person who tricked him. The visit to Lee Cheol Jin before he disappeared also bothered Chief Lim. "Then let''s find out where Yoon Jong Woo is and hold him off until I''m done." "Yes." The staff received polite instructions to leave. The two remaining men in the room didn''t say anything. Chief Lim only spoke after the footsteps had completely subsided. "We have to end this now." "For this to be done safely, it''s all up to you. Make sure you''re pulling your own weight." -- "Are you sure you sent it yesterday?" Yoon Jong Woo held the front door open and asked for confirmation. Because of Yoon Jong Woo, his plan to sleep late was ruined. Yoon Jong Woo left an emergency contact number at the photo studio, but he couldn''t understand how he knew his home address. He sighed and pulled the door open. "Ah, yes! They said that most of the pictures would be sent out the night before the holiday. Did they not deliver them?" "Please tell me about the express delivery service you used. Does it usually arrive within a day?" S§×arch* The nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I''m using Chunlima delivery service. And you shouldn''t ask me about the delivery date but should go check with the courier?" The owner of the photo studio said, "Let''s go" and pushed Yoon Jong Woo. The front door slammed shut in front of Yoon Jong Woo while he couldn''t even find the delivery receipt number. He angrily wanted to ring the doorbell again, but if he really did, he would call the police. Yoon Jong Woo shuffled back and forth hesitantly. He went down to the alley and took out his phone. There has been no further contact from Taek Joo. Yoon Jong Woo heard about him on the news last night. He was so shocked that he couldn''t sleep, but then Taek Joo called back. According to Taek Joo''s instructions, Yoon Jong Woo shouldn''t go to work today. A sigh came out. You''ve come this far and you can''t go back. Yoon Jong Woo can only do his part and hope everything goes well. Yoon Jong Woo went online and searched for Chunlima express delivery. He couldn''t look up the delivery status because he didn''t have the invoice number, so Yoon Jong Woo had no other choice but to call the main switchboard number. After a while, he was connected to an agent. "Yes, Chunlima delivery? Thank you for your hard work. I want to ask something. This is 1724 Seocho-dong. The package I was supposed to receive yesterday still hasn''t arrived." Yoon Jong Woo gave the address of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor''s Office, and an expected response rang out. "Oh really? Do you happen to know the invoice number?" "Ah, like this.. Today the shipping company coincidentally had a holiday. If they don''t answer the phone, will it be difficult to look up my information?" "Please read more information." This time, Yoon Jong Woo reread the sender and recipient information that Taek Joo had tipped him off. "Thank you very much." He replied back. "Dear customer, after looking up, I can confirm that the courier has already arrived in this area. We will provide you with the contact information of the driver in charge. Could you please try contacting us with them?" Yoon Jong Woo quickly wrote down the contact number. Taek Joo said that the photo would be convincing evidence. If that''s true then it should be safely sent to Prosecutor Seok. Due to the nature of the express delivery service, Yoon Jong Woo was very worried because he could not be sure exactly when the package would arrive or whether the package would be delivered properly. Yoon Jong Woo called the courier driver, the call connection rang. He walked back and forth aimlessly and anxiously waited for the other end to pick up the phone. However, there is only a voice notification that the person on the other end of the line cannot answer the phone. "Ah bastard. Why don''t you answer the phone?" Perhaps they were busy with work so they couldn''t answer the phone, Yoon Jong Woo''s thoughts continued to spread in a bad direction. Because it was something that had to be delivered, he couldn''t help but worry about whether it might get lost on the way or someone might take it midway. Yoon Jong Woo was looking at his phone to see if anything was wrong when another figure approached from behind. "Yoon Jong Woo." Yoon Jong Woo nervously looked back in the direction he heard the call. Two men in black suits were standing there. Yoon Jong Woo could sense their identities through intuition, they were agents sent by Chief Lim from headquarters. Yoon Jong Woo''s phone fell to the ground. There, the message rang again that the customer could not answer the phone. Chapter 57 - 4.11 Checkmate 5 Chapter 57 - 4.11 Checkmate 5Kwon Taek Joo left the motel and went to the rooftop of a shopping center. The surrounding buildings were of similar height and a few roads led to the main road, but most of them were alleys so narrow that even a car could hardly pass. From above, the town looks like a maze. Sirens kept sounding somewhere, and then people who looked like plainclothes policemen started appearing one by one. It seems they checked Yoon Jong Woo''s call list and are searching the train station. From now on. Kwon Taek Joo must become their own bait and attract their attention. He took the gun out of his belt and pulled the trigger toward an investigation vehicle equipped with warning lights. The silent bullet flying from the silenced gun hit the wheel of an investigation vehicle and focused all attention immediately. Police nearby lowered their bodies and frantically scanned in all directions looking for shooting points. Just then, one of them gestured to the rooftop. "Over there!" Investigators and police scattered to the building where Kwon Taek Joo was staying. They quickly jumped up the stairs and then onto the roof. S~ea??h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Stay still!" They each pulled out their guns and aimed at Kwon Taek Joo. He didn''t care and continued running out of the hiding place. The police officer looked blankly at him as he suddenly rushed towards the railing as if intending to commit suicide. His body did not encounter any obstacles and just fell downwards. The policeman rushed to the railing. Kwon Taek Joo was in the building next door. He immediately stood up and checked for any injuries then ran away again. The police officers who had been watching all this time simultaneously opened fire. Empty bullets were fired along with real bullets, flying into the wall instead of Kwon Taek Joo and getting stuck there. Meanwhile, Kwon Taek Joo once again went from rooftop to rooftop. "He''s over there!" The employee waiting below discovered him and screamed. A group of police chased from all directions. A patrol car also followed and continuously announced Kwon Taek Joo''s location on the radio. In a densely populated area with shabby shops and houses, even if Kwon Taek Joo passed by in front of them, they could not recklessly pull the trigger, because the safety of the people was the top priority. even if the subject is a dangerous criminal. They must be more careful now that media attention is focused, and distrust of public authority is rife. Kwon Taek Joo tried to take advantage of that so he just hung around the residential area all the time. As the number of investigators increased and the siege gradually narrowed, Kwon Taek Joo jumped off a 3m high stone wall and then ran on a wall that appeared to be less than 15 cm wide. Without hesitation, he jumped down the wall and disappeared. The way Kwon Taek Joo moved from now on reminded people of a leopard, not a field agent from the National Intelligence Agency. "Target detected. Move west, move west!" The investigator was running and communicating via radio when suddenly a very loud engine sounded in front of them. A car was driving so fast that they didn''t have time to check who was in it. However, just by looking at the patrol cars chasing each other, guessing that the driver is Kwon Taek Joo. The police also quickly climbed into the investigation car. Together with the support team controlling the road, everyone focused on chasing Kwon Taek Joo. Now it''s just a matter of time. The siren sounded shrilly in the small residential area. Kwon Taek Joo freely drives through the chaos. He doesn''t slow down even on roads narrow enough that only one car can pass. How long has he been running? The side door of a house suddenly opened, and a man stepped out to throw trash. He turned his head at the unusual sign and shouted when he saw Kwon Taek Joo''s car rushing towards him. "Ahh!" Kwon Taek Joo turned the steering wheel to the right. The entire body of the car was pressed against the wall and the rearview mirror was smashed. The car passed without leaving any casualties. The pursuing patrol cars could not pass the man sitting down on the road, forcing them to stop. While the police got out of the car and evacuated the man to safety, Kwon Taek Joo leisurely slipped through the alley. He had just gone down the hill and turned onto the main road when Kwon Taek Joo''s car was caught up by the support team waiting nearby. Two nearby patrol cars immediately blocked the road, then without hesitation they crossed the center line and ran back. But luckily no car could keep up. Suddenly there was the sound of propellers overhead. A military helicopter is following Kwon Taek Joo''s car. A sniper is aiming through binoculars, ready to open fire to suppress. The investigation vehicles also drove one after another and one of them crossed the three-lane road and crashed into the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s car. As a result, his car''s body spun in a large circle, leaving dark skid marks as the tires slid across the road surface. The cars chasing nearby also hurriedly braked, but the collision was unavoidable because of the sudden stop, causing six or seven patrol cars to collide one after another. Even the investigation cars driving from the other side stopped. Smoke rose from the cars following each other but it was impossible to determine where Kwon Taek Joo was. As the patrol cars came one after another and gathered around, the whole area looked like a car cemetery. Soon, the car door opened and armed police stepped out. They hid behind open doors in case of a gunfight and closely searched for Kwon Taek Joo''s car. Sakaman guns drawn. Soon a black sedan drove to the scene. Inside were Chief Lim and Deputy Chief 1. Chief Lim got out of the car and revealed his identity to the police officer who was trying to block the way. He then called the field manager and grabbed a megaphone. "You are completely surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender." Chief Lim''s voice echoed on the road where only sirens could be heard. However, there was no sign of Kwon Taek Joo''s car. Pedestrians whose access was restricted and people in nearby buildings also closely observed the situation, each of them had a cell phone in their hand. "I warn you again. Raise your hands and step outside. I will spare your life." A comment that can only be heard in the movie makes viewers even more curious. Everyone was busy taking photos and filming even though they didn''t know the severity of the situation. The police tried to stop it but to no avail. Related content spreads everywhere on social networks. At that moment. Kwon Taek Joo''s car door, which had been silent all this time, suddenly opened wide. He finally appeared and stepped on the car''s bonnet to climb up to the ceiling, Kwon Taek Joo wears a character mask that children use. Everyone was confused by the unexpected turn of events, but only Chief Lim was able to recognize that he was Kwon Taek Joo. Kwon Taek Joo climbed into the car and slowly raised his hand. The police guns gathered at the scene were immediately loaded. The air seemed to be stirred by Kwon Taek Joo''s every move. Just like that, another silence came. Everyone held their breath and waited for Chief Lim''s instructions because everything would end when Kwon Taek Joo was arrested. Even so, Chief Lim still quietly turned his eyes as if looking for someone. During the time Kwon Taek Joo was exposed, there were no reports of anyone accompanying him. Even now he was alone, Psych Bogdanov was nowhere to be seen. Is he not here? Is Kwon Taek Joo really safe and sound after contacting him? It''s confusing. Chief Lim had a feeling something was wrong. Then I came across an unexpected scene. The window of the car in which Deputy 1 was sitting slid down, and a long gun muzzle protruded through the gap. Since all the attention was focused on Kwon Taek Joo, no one except Chief Lim noticed it. Since Kwon Taek Joo already knows everything, what more can be done now that it''s over? Chief Lim frowned and glared at Deputy Chief 1. For a moment, their eyes met. Chief Lim shook his head to signal, but Deputy Chief 1 still closed one eve and looked into the binoculars before Chief Lim''s intervention. Harmful seeds need to be eliminated. "Only the dead are silent." Like Kim Young Hee and Lee Cheol Jin. The index finger on the trigger is completely folded. A flame burst out from the black muzzle of the gun. -- The Seoul Central District Prosecutor''s Office also had a strange sense of tension, because the wanted person succeeded in escaping every time despite the public agencies mobilizing a lot of public power. Relevant news is in turn transmitted through mass media and social networks as well as communication networks between investigation agencies. Attention cannot be quelled as it relates to the case handled by the local integrity department. The situation is no different with Prosecutor Seok. Of course, arresting Kwon Taek Joo and revealing his crimes is beyond Prosecutor Seok''s authority. But he must find out whether it was Kwon Taek Joo who poisoned Lee Cheol Jin, and if so, why. Kwon Taek Joo has stated that the series of events surrounding him are someone''s conspiracy. But so far. Prosecutor Seok has not received any further evidence. Perhaps the reason Kwon Taek Joo came to meet him himself was just an act to confuse the investigation. "Prosecutors?" Prosecutor Seok was lost in thought when Chief Kim approached and called him. He suddenly woke up. "Yes?" "The courier has arrived." Manager Kim handed over a silver express envelope. He checked the bill. It was indeed sent to Prosecutor Seok, with the sender''s name ''Garam Photo Studio'' written on it. Prosecutor Seok never received letters for personal use at the District Attorney''s Office. So this courier was also sent unilaterally by someone. Solicitations bribes. Personal letters and threats are also often sent that way, but sometimes there are also clues sent in by anonymous informants. Chief Kim suggested, "I think it''s a photo." In his heart, Prosecutor Seok was also curious about the contents of the envelope. Perhaps because the sensitive moment made him automatically remember Kwon Taek Joo. Could it be? Prosecutor Seok shook his head and opened the envelope. Inside are hundreds of photos. Prosecutor Seok tried to pull them out, and one of them fell to the floor. Chief Kim said, "Ohh" and quickly picked them up. Then, "uh," he said softly. Prosecutor Seok stiffened when he saw the photo in his hand. Lee Cheol Jin appears in most of the photos. What surprised Prosecutor Seok more was who Lee Cheol Jin was with. Someone who looks quite familiar. Chief Kim seems to have the same sense of deja vu as Prosecutor Seok. He tilted his head and said, "You''ve seen this person somewhere, right?" "Don''t you know who this is?" "Wow, I think I''ve seen this person somewhere before.." Manager Kim looked closely at the person in the photo. He looked at a few more pictures and rummaged through his memories. A moment later, a vague image appeared like a mirage in his mind. Chief Kim often remembers people even though he only met once, but this time was different. Chief Kim took out his phone and to be sure, he connected to the Internet and searched for someone. Immediately after that, information about the accessed person appears. Manager Kim checked his name, current relationship, and photos on his phone one by one and then suddenly opened his eyes wide. Surely not, right? He immediately turned the phone around and gave it to Prosecutor Seok. It was clear that the person being searched was the same person as the person in the photo. His identity is Cha Moon Seok, Deputy Division 1 of the National Intelligence Agency. -- Damn it. The sound of gunfire broke the momentary silence. At the same time. Kwon Taek Joo was raising his hand, quickly crossing his arms. The police who were aiming at him were also confused by the untimely gunfire. A few stray bullets shot into the sky. Despite the chaos, Chief Lim and Deputy Chief 1 exchanged disapproving looks with each other. Not long after that, Kwon Taek Joo heard the sound of a propeller. A helicopter is approaching from above. He thought it was a support helicopter that had arrived late, but it looked quite different from the existing helicopters. Its sleek exterior and uniquely long, thick landing slides are its distinguishing features. Everyone''s eyes were directed into space. Kwon Taek Joo''s hair and collar fluttered as the helicopter approached. He squinted as he watched the helicopter continue to lower altitude. In fact, the rotation of the rotor blades did not decrease at all and it seemed that it had no intention of landing, but the distance between it and the road surface was too close. A helicopter that could not distinguish whether it was friendly or not, and even the purpose of its approach was unclear, dropped a large amount of gasoline. It was a thick smoke grenade. Even in the middle of the day, visibility is instantly blocked, to the point where it''s impossible to see even a few centimeters in front of you. Even so, the sound of the propellers continued while everyone was confused. No, it''s closer than before. Deputy Chief 1 in the car looked around uncomfortably. Strangely, it felt like the helicopter was just hovering above his head. The vibrations of air created when the propeller rotated shook the body of his car, black smoke and strong wind blew through the open window. Deputy Chief 1 clutched the rifle in his sweaty hands. The next moment, the sedan suddenly swayed violently from side to side, a sharp shrill sound scraping the eardrums. Deputy Chief 1 looked out the window in horror. He saw a block of metal coming quickly through the smoke. Soon, it broke the window and crashed straight into the car. Shards of glass fell onto the chair with a violent explosion. Deputy Chief 1 was extremely surprised because the process looked like a slow motion movie, but in reality it only happened in a few seconds. The metal block pushed right in front of Deputy Chief 1 was the helicopter''s landing slider. It was probably made of special titanium so there were no scratches even after the previous collision. The slider did not hit Deputy Chief 1 but got stuck in the ceiling of the car. As a result, the helicopter and the car''s ceiling collided continuously. causing sparks. No one understood what the helicopter''s intention was, but it seemed it was not a wish to die together. Immediately after that, the car''s body, which had only been swaying from side to side, began to sway up and down. Sometimes it seems to float lightly in the air. Only then did Deputy Chief 1 realize what was happening to him. He tried to quickly get out of the car, but the door was crushed and could not be opened. Meanwhile, the helicopter gradually gained altitude. The sedan stuck on the slide also flipped and was lifted up. "Ah!" Deputy 1 screamed and rolled into the window. The car door open and close button doesn''t work. He tried to destroy it with his rifle, but even the slightest movement made the car''s body shake. The slider mounted on the ceiling also slides with a squeaking sound. If it falls out of the car, his car will definitely fall. Realizing his situation, Deputy Head 1 stiffened. He didn''t even dare to breathe. The smoke gradually cleared, but the police could not take any action and just quietly watched the helicopter fly in the sky. A hostage vehicle is not safe if shot at, and for the same reason, a police helicopter hovering nearby cannot attack. It only follows the mysterious helicopter at a certain distance. Surprisingly, the chase didn''t last long, because the other helicopter landed in the parking lot of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors'' Office. When the helicopter suddenly appeared from nowhere, the security guards of the prosecutor''s office rushed out with puzzled expressions. The mysterious helicopter released the sedan from the slider then flew up again and landed completely next to it. At the same time, Prosecutor Seok was leaving the office with investigators from the prosecutor''s office. He stopped when he saw a helicopter land in the parking lot. Other employees also clung to the window and watched the unexpected scene. Security guards surrounded the helicopter and the sedan, uncertain what to do. Immediately after that the helicopter door opened. The person who appeared inside was none other than Zhenya. The atmosphere around them became even more disturbed when a Russian suddenly appeared. Zhenya walked to the sedan in front of dozens of pairs of eyes, opened the dented door and dragged the bewildered Deputy Manager 1 out. After examining his face, Prosecutor Seok strode towards Zhenya. Zhenya pushed Deputy Chief 1, who could not stand because of his pulse, into prosecutor Seok. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly held out a memory card. As soon as Prosecutor Seok received the item, he immediately realized what it was. With that. Zeana finished all his work and returned to the helicopter. Surrounding guards all pulled out their guns to stop, but Zhenya went straight to the cockpit. Prosecutor Seok intervened and stopped the scuffle. Soon, the helicopter flew back into the air and created a huge wind. When the wind stopped, it had gone very far, only as small as a fingernail. Prosecutor Seok clearly informed Deputy Chief 1, who was still bewildered. "I am Prosecutor Seok Jae-hee of the 1st Public Security Division at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors'' Office. We urgently arrest Cha Moon Seok for violating the National Security Law. You have the right to an attorney, you have the right to remain silent and anything you say can later be used against you in court." -- Zhenya''s helicopter landed on a skyscraper. The door opened, Zhenya and Kwon Taek Joo walked out one after another. He leaned against the railing and enjoyed the wind blowing from all directions. The wind is everywhere, so pleasant. When Deputy Chief 1 suddenly opened fire he reflexively twisted his body and almost could not avoid it. When looking at Chief Lim''s eyes, Kwon Taek Joo saw a gun pointed at him from behind. Kwon Taek Joo sprained his ankle when he fell under the car, but he was lucky to avoid the bullet. Immediately afterwards, Zhenya flew the helicopter and lowered the rope ladder through the gap in the smoke. When Kwon Taek Joo asked him why he came to do the job he was assigned, Zhenya said something cryptic that he would do that job from now on. Afterwards, Deputy Chief 1 was arrested again and taken to the Seoul Central District Prosecutor''s Office. There''s nothing out of the ordinary, it''s just that he feels Zhenya is adorable when doing the work he instructs, so Kwon Taek Joo probably isn''t normal either. He must have gone crazy from the stress. "It''s quiet now." Zhenya leisurely leaned against the railing. Kwon Taek Joo looked up at one side of his face for a moment then looked away and said "Mhm". He felt relieved thinking that everything was over, but something was still missing. Maybe it''s because he still can''t feel reality. From the day he arrived in Russia until now, it was as if he had had a long dream. Kwon Taek Joo was lost in his emotions for a moment, but Zhenya''s hand approached him. He unconsciously tried to tilt his head to avoid it. Zhenya watched him react cautiously with his arm frozen in the air. It''s just that he suddenly became shy. Kwon Taek Joo stared at Zhenya without backing down any further. Zhenya then reached out and took off the mask he was still wearing. The two people''s eyes met. Will everything be okay, when Kwon Taek Joo is carried away by temporary emotions, when he has never wanted a man and has not treated Zhenya properly, Kwon Taek Joo still rushed into blindness? Maybe he would be with Zhenya now, but he had no intention of yearning for that man. Kwon Taek Joo was no longer imprisoned and isolated from the world like before, nor did he have to rely entirely on that man. But at least, Zhenya is next to him now. "I guess I won''t have any more nightmares." (I''m guessing he''s talking about the kid dreams) Kwon Taek Joo muttered to himself as he stared intently at Zhenya. He''s not asking him to get married or anything big, Zhenya''s current feelings will probably cool down soon. So maybe Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t need to worry too much, he just needs to try a little. If he was tired and afraid of being chased, he didn''t have to run away anymore, and right now he still couldn''t find a better answer. Even after coming to the conclusion, Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t believe it and burst out laughing. He looked down at the world at his feet and let out a long breath. "I want to rest somewhere quiet." "I know there is a place like that, where no one bothers you." "Hm, consider helping me get there." Kwon Taek Joo said as if lamenting. Zhenya curled her mouth at his disgusted expression, then walked towards Kwon Taek Joo and grabbed the railing. His body was trapped between the railing and his arms stood upright, he was almost completely buried in Zhenya''s arms, his body odor also became stronger. Zhenya bit Kwon Taek Joo''s shirt collar and placed his lips on the back of his neck. He rubbed his nose against the dry skin and comfortably inhaled the body odor. The gentle stimulation caused Kwon Taek Joo''s heart and rhythm to become chaotic. This was enough to know that he couldn''t deny it any longer. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and blamed himself for why his taste was so limited. He spoke in Korean so Zhenya couldn''t understand. He asked again and as if to punish Kwon Taek Joo who was whining and talking nonsense, Zhenya bit hard and greedily on his back. (Sadly it doesn''t say what Kwon Taek Joo said) Sunset has set at the end of a long day. The wind was fierce, but for some reason Kwon Taek Joo felt warm. It is a harbinger of spring. Chapter 58 - 4.12 Checkmate 6 Chapter 58 - 4.12 Checkmate 6Court No. 426, Section 21 of the Criminal Agreement, Seoul Central District Court. The trial of a case involving a senior NIS official has begun. The defendant is accused of receiving orders from North Korea and carrying out activities for decades. However, he gradually changed his ideology, and when his name was mentioned as the next head of the NIS, he tried to cover up and manipulate the activities in the process. my past to wash away the past. Besides, there is another person in the plan, including personnel at the NIS department head level, and even public power is drawn into it. In addition, an innocent NIS employee was accused of stealing national secrets and was chased, also attracting public attention. However, because the first trial took place in a closed room, reporters as well as onlookers were completely prohibited from entering. Due to strict court control, even lawyers must prove their identity when entering and exiting. It was an unprecedented scene. "I am filing as a witness for an agent from the National Intelligence Service who arrested the defendant at the time." The judge accepted the prosecution''s witnesses. After that, the courtroom organizers brought office partitions to install them on the prosecutor''s chair, the defense attorney''s chair, and the participants'' chairs, respectively. This is to protect the identity and take into account the professional characteristics of the witness. A moment later, the door opened and the witness entered the courtroom. Hiding in a sheltered place, he swore to only tell the truth and answer questions truthfully. Including him, a total of three agents now sit on the witness stand. The fierce battle continued for more than two hours. "We will rest for 30 minutes." After a short break, the court announced that it would now switch to a public trial. Immediately, the witness protection partition was removed and the closed door was opened. The reporter waiting outside the courtroom rushed over. They eased their regret at not being able to attend the first part of the trial by taking photos of the partially covered facilities being cleaned. Meanwhile, the witnesses secretly left through a hidden entrance. Yoon Jong Woo took off his tight jacket and threw it over his shoulder. Even the most fashionably styled hair gets messy. "Ah, I didn''t commit any crime, so I''m suddenly so scared. I came to court and was completely stunned. If we were just a little bit unlucky, we would both be sitting on the defendant''s bench." Taek Joo heard the conversation and loosened his tie, then he smiled. Like Yoon Jong Woo said, there were obviously a lot of variables, but luckily they all worked hard and led to the current results. He didn''t know how things would be different if either of them made a mistake. Much of the truth is like that, but what should be revealed is often easily buried, distorted and difficult to determine. After the case ended, Taek Joo''s life returned to normal. He was still working as an NIS agent and his mother''s concern for him remained unchanged. Taek Joo still couldn''t honestly tell his mother everything. He argued that the reason he was wanted was due to a computer error. The reason he hid it from her was because of NIS''s job regulations, and his job there was just a simple support job. Of course, his mother''s radar stopped as soon as she heard the words ''National Intelligence Agency''. So Taek Joo was ready for this incident, and lied and said not to worry because he would soon be transferred to another agency. It''s not pleasant to lie to his mother, but Taek Joo also doesn''t want her to live a life of constant anxiety. The job of an intelligence officer suited him well enough to be considered a vocation. Every time he goes to a work scene, he feels like he is alive. Taek Joo is not sure if anything else can replace the joy and feeling of fulfillment after completing a mission. His mother recently began receiving counseling to overcome the lingering psychological trauma. She was taking care of her life little by little. For peace and happiness between mother and son, it seems like Taek Joo would have to be willing to lie for the time being. Sear?h the nov§×lF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He decided to ask Zhenya for some help. Although he didn''t know whether it was acceptable to use a public agency for such a private matter, thinking back, he didn''t know why Zhenya would take such a position. Both he and Russia silently listened to his request without taking any countermeasures. It was an element that would only cause trouble if kept in the country, so they must have thought it would be better to bring Zhenya to the far away country of Korea. "Anyway, I was very surprised when I heard the news a few days ago. Did you know that sir? That Russian lunatic will become the next Russian ambassador." While Taek Joo was clicking his tongue, Yoon Jong Woo suddenly brought up the matter. He felt so guilty as if he was the cause of the incident. As if being a crazy person with a degree in Russia wasn''t enough, now Zhenya has also fled to Korea. It''s crazy. Taek Joo took a deep breath and then gently shook his head. Yoon Jong Woo expressed concern, "Are you okay, sir?" "Probably just for a while. Even if he ran here, he would get bored quickly." Taek Joo sighed with that fragile hope. But he also did not intend to break his promise. It''s just that it''s hard to immediately start dating a guy who could have killed you and then saved you. The thought of being together with Zhenya made him a little scared. That''s why he hoped that Zhenyas strange feelings would naturally fade over time. Until then, Taek Joo was determined to be by his side whenever possible. As long as he still has a little affection for him, Zhenya wont act as carelessly as before. His weapon-grade cock was still uncomfortable, but Zhenya seemed like a suitable person to sleep with, so it wasn''t a complete loss. I need to go back to headquarters, what about you sir?" "I''ll enjoy the rest of my vacation." That said, Taek Joo felt an ominous feeling flicker with the sudden vibration from inside his jacket. He took out his phone from his pocket, and sure enough, the headquarters phone number was displayed. Yoon Jong Woo looked at his phone with an unusual reaction. The tired boy stared at the constantly ringing phone and mumbled something. "If you pick up the phone.." "They called me and told me to find you. They know I''m with you." Taek Joo was forced to receive the phone call. The call started and ended unilaterally as usual. He couldn''t even open his mouth once. The new manager was a typical civil servant. The main characteristic of competent people is that they have the knack of forcing subordinates to obey orders. "What did they say?" "What are you talking about? There''s a new mission." A sigh came out. The two put their arms around each other and immediately smiled. It is a daily habit that can''t be escaped while serving in NIS. Taek Joo couldn''t avoid it. Taek Joo gave up and was about to leave when the phone rang again. Somehow this time he felt like he knew who it was without having to check. It''s vague, but it''s an almost certain intuition. If he didn''t pick up the phone it would ring for an eternity. Taek Joo pressed the answer button and brought the phone to his ear. Before he could say anything, the other end spoke up. "Tell them you can''t go." The one who always says that is Zhenya. Looking at the timing of the call, it seemed like he hacked Taek Joo''s phone. The one who always says that is Zhenya. Looking at the timing of the call, it seemed like he hacked Taek Joo''s phone. "Hey, hacking and eavesdropping is illegal in korea? Did you forget?" "Maybe you forgot, but diplomats have immunity." They didn''t necessarily give that privilege to Zhenya. Where will Korea''s future go? Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt worried and guilty. He didn''t know if Zhenya felt the same way he did, it wouldn''t be easy because he had never considered a man to ever be an object of love in his life. But there''s one thing he''s sure of, that Zhenya is the only person who makes his heart skip a beat, regardless of whether he''s with men or women. Taek Joo only wondered how much Zhenya could change for him. Every time he showed strange gestures or attitudes, a strange feeling of challenge and excitement rose within him. Taek Joo laughed and decided to follow his heart. "I''m coming back." "Then hurry and come back." Chapter 59 - 4.13 Honey Trap Chapter 59 - 4.13 Honey TrapThe Russian Embassy is in Korea. The president''s goodwill visit and the Royal Ballet''s performance in Korea are coming in a month. Of course, the embassy''s work is also in a state of emergency. The staff spent a busy day answering phone calls that rang as soon as they got to work, receiving and sorting incoming faxes one by one, sending dispatches to relevant organizations and responding Various questions received via email. After the official event ended, the embassy planned to hold a ''Russian Night'' event for cultural exchange between Korea and Russia. That''s why every department feels like it''s sitting on fire. In addition, visa applications for students preparing to study abroad or train are also lined up so long they don''t have time to breathe. Unapproved documents continued to pile up on the ambassador''s desk. Assistant Pavel Menshikov sighed deeply as he placed another stack of papers on it. There hasn''t been a day without a sigh since the new ambassador was appointed. It was sad to serve a young ambassador. but he also didn''t want to be judged as an incompetent assistant. His eyes darkened when he heard that Zhenya was appointed as the next ambassador. because he was as famous as the president in his native Russia. No matter how many times he hoped it was just a baseless rumor. But by the third month of the announcement there was still none of the feared chaos. In a way, it was a very natural result because the ambassador only appeared when he felt like it and usually didn''t leave the house. There are no troublemakers, so there can''t be any problems. Around the time he was considering whether or not he should take over the overdue work on Zhenya''s behalf today, there was a knock on the door, and soon the door opened. The Secretary of the Department of Culture and the Secretary of the Politburo entered one after another. They opened their mouths as if they were too tired to ask about the familiar scene taking place in front of them. "Where did the Ambassador go again?" "I wish someone would tell me." "Tsk tsk, there are too many documents." "It should be done in a day or two." All three sighed in unison and shook their heads. "I wonder if the Kremlin knows where he went to like that after leaving his phone behind on a day like this." "How could they not know? They just pretended not to know. No, this was expected from the beginning." "I heard this appointment was personally requested by the ambassador. Why Korea?" "Who knows. Even the biological mother who gave birth to him may not know." Another sigh came from the three of them. Counting out the remainder of his term, the future seems even bleaker. They don''t even want to work anymore. The assistant still tried to explain the current situation as optimistically as possible. "It''s nice to see him in a good mood every once in a while. Have you heard from Russia? They say that just the slightest bit of anger can turn everything around him into a mess. Maybe it''s better to let him do as he pleases and just stand around and observe." The two scribes nodded in partial agreement. They were complaining about the delay in work, but in reality, they were also happy not to have to meet Zhenya. That''s because of the rumors related to him. There are even rumors that there is a single one-man unit of the FSB. Everyone is understandably reluctant to become part of his unit. It''s best not to cause trouble with your superior, whose emotions fluctuate very erratically. Ambassador work is never idle. As a top level diplomat, Zhenya represents Russia itself, so he has many foreign affairs tasks to deal with, and personal matters are also very important.

However, the Kremlin''s ridiculous personnel reshuffle should be attributed to the relationship. I can''t take it off, and after rubbing it many times, it''s hard to keep it, so it''s better to just send it far away. If Zhenya himself wants to go, there is no reason to hesitate. Embassy staff have been drastically changed into competent diplomats, and there''s a reason for that. Apparently they had anticipated the consul general''s frequent absences and negligence from the moment he was appointed. Even if they realize it now, nothing will change. "Come to think of it, what is the identity of the Korean belonging to our embassy?" "I know, right? I also checked this out a while ago and was a bit confused. They said to contact the ambassador if we want to find that Korean employee." The two secretaries took turns asking questions. In fact, not only them but all the employees in the embassy were curious about it, because no one had ever seen a Korean proudly write their name on the staff list. They don''t know what he does or what he looks like. It''s just that the special ambassador hired him, so he must be an acquaintance of his. The Secretary of the General Department of Politics expressed dissatisfaction. "Tch tsk. A person appointed through an umbrella hires another umbrella person." "He is an atomic bomb, not just an umbrella. No, it has to be a nuclear weapon." The words were full of metaphors but no one objected. They laughed and continued their work. Chapter 60 - 4.14 Honey Trap 2 Chapter 60 - 4.14 Honey Trap 2The gates opened and a group of people poured into the arrivals hall. Kwon Taek Joo immersed himself in the crowd. His neat outfit reminded people of a desk clerk who had just finished a business trip, but the bandages all over his body showed that this was no ordinary civil servant. It''s been a long time since he set foot on Korean soil. Kwon Taek Joo stopped for a moment and took a breath of the air he longed for. Enjoying the outside scenery through the glass walls. When he left it was early spring, and everyone''s clothes were now lighter and more comfortable. It seems like summer is about to begin. Kwon Taek Joo lifted his sleeve to check the time. It''s past 7pm. He quickly took out his phone and turned it on. Luckily, even though the flight was delayed for 30 minutes, there was no call or text from his mother urging him to return home. If before, she would have contacted her dozens of times because she couldn''t stand the anxiety of waiting. It was a good sign that his mother was gradually getting better. But for some reason Zeana remained silent. Until yesterday Kwon Taek Joo seemed exhausted because he called every second until he answered. "..." Did something unfortunate happen to Zhenya? Kwon Taek Joo made an assumption and then laughed. Zhenya is someone who isn''t even sick, so we should try to fight him to see if he bleeds. It''s hard to imagine that something so serious happened to Zhenya that he couldn''t raise a finger. Of course, monkeys sometimes fall from trees. Maybe some exceptional situation happened, so you can''t predict it at all. Kwon Taek Joo glanced down at his phone. Or would you be more lenient and take the initiative to call first? He looked for Zhenya''s name in the list of previous calls, and immediately his phone number filled the screen. However, Kwon Taek Joo''s finger did not immediately press the call button but just lingered on it for a long time. He was thinking about Zhenya''s reaction. Kwon Taek Joo''s face suddenly grimaced. Just think about that guy''s face raising his chin and smiling with a satisfied half mouth, then it would be better to give up, Kwon Taek Joo put down the phone. "Is he reminding me?" Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo felt a little itchy in his ears. It''s probably because he''s so tired, he needs to go home and rest well. Kwon Taek Joo walked out and took a taxi. He told the driver his destination and immediately closed his eves. His body quickly sagged. It''s never been like that, but lately the wheels seem to be spinning more intensely. After completing one mission. The next mission was waiting, then when he finished and returned, he was assigned a new mission. Because the period of regime change is approaching, every time the government changes, foreign and security policies also change and affect foreign interests. NIS work also cannot help but increase naturally. The mind understood that, but Kwon Taek Joo''s body gradually became overloaded. He intended to close his eyes just for a moment, but the taxi quickly stopped. To keep his mother from worrying, Kwon Taek Joo slapped his face hard to dispel the sleepiness. The taxi driver gave him anti fatigue medicine without saying a word. Kwon Taek Joo thanked him and drank it all in one gulp. He got out of the taxi and trudged along. The entire apartment complex and Kwon Taek Joo''s house were brightly lit at night. His mother usually goes for a walk to wait for him at the entrance, but today she was nowhere to be found. Every time he discovered that change, his mood softened. Kwon Taek Joo intended to wait for the elevator but he went up the stairs. The closer he got to home, the neater his clothes were. He buttoned his shirt up to his neck and tightened the tie that had been loosely removed. When Kwon Taek Joo arrived in front of the main door, he removed the tape on the back of his hand. He unlocked the door and went inside. Kwon Taek Joo took off his shoes and walked into the living room. "I''m home." The mother was sitting in the living room, smiling and welcoming him. "Are you back?" Kwon Taek Joo was saying hello when he stopped, because a surprise guest had arrived. It seemed he knew why his mother hadn''t contacted him. She must have been busy cutting fruit to entertain this unexpected guest. None other than Zhenya, who looked up at Kwon Taek Joo while stabbing his fork into an apple that had been cut into bite-sized pieces. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo''s face contorted in surprise and then raised the corner of his mouth. While Kwon Taek Joo stood there staring at Zhenya in protest, his mother spoke up. "He came to play. The ambassador has come all the way here." His mother hit Kwon Taek Joo''s back and said hello. Zhenya couldn''t understand Korean, but his facial expression had become more arrogant. His mother knew that Zhenya was the Russian ambassador to Korea. And Kwon Taek Joo''s mother believed that he would quit his job at the National Intelligence Agency as promised and work as an office worker for him. His mother was someone who had lived her entire life in a culture of respect for superiors, and because he was Kwon Taek Joo''s superior, his mother must have welcomed him so respectfully. "You''re here." Kwon Taek Joo didn''t want his mother to get angry so he greeted him in a brusque manner, and she also nodded lightly. He showed a dissatisfied expression. His mother smiled wryly and said, "He must be tired," then suddenly grabbed him and pulled him out the door. Kwon Taek Joo was gently dragged away while continuing to silently protest against Zhenya. Of course, he just ate the apple as if he was completely blind. The mother cornered Kwon Taek Joo against the wall and lowered her voice to scold him. "What''s wrong? Why are you being so rude to the ambassador?" "It''s normal, mom. He is much younger than me. After all, he doesn''t understand Korean, and since he''s a foreigner, he''s used to dealing comfortably with superiors or elders." "What, him? Foreigner? Ya, ya. Did mom teach you that? If you are a superior, you must show respect!" "Oh mom, you are truly a soldier in your blood." Kwon Taek Joon replied jokingly and was hit on the back again. "That young man was a big help. When I go on a business trip, he comes to my house every day because my mother is alone. Why is that? How can anyone take care of their subordinates like that?" His mother grumbled with a dissatisfied look on her face. "That''s right. Our Ambassador really does have feelings." "Don''t say such annoying things." "Because I''m tired, mom. The Russian consulate is not far away." "No matter how tired you are, you can''t act like that. Mom doesn''t have any great ambitions. I just hope you can continue working there. Do you know yet?" "Okay, okay. I''ll eat some rice first. I''m so hungry." "Eat the fruit first." S§×ar?h the ¦ÇovelFire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Fruit first? Where''s the rice?" "Mom has plans to go to the market a little more. It would have been nice to know in advance that the ambassador was coming.. Didn''t you know too? You have to tell mom." "Ah, because of that? Oh god, it doesn''t have to be like that, Mom. You can eat anything.." "You really.." Did Zeana hear it? Kwon Taek Joo''s mother glanced back and hit her eldest son on the back, the sound of hitting the back rang out clearly. Kwon Taek Joo did aegyo with his mother to get out of the troublesome situation. "You were wrong. But really. I''m starving to death. So today we''ll just eat with side dishes. Huh?" "Oh, how can this be? Stay there." Mom left quickly and came back. "Go talk to the ambassador." Mom pushed Kwon Taek Joo into the living room and quickly left the house. He didn''t understand why his mother was in such a hurry. The door opened and closed, and the door was locked carefully. The sound of his mother''s footsteps also quickly faded away. Anyway, it can''t be stopped. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and changed his expression then returned to the living room. Zhenya still leisurely ate the fruit. Even under Kwon Taek Joo''s frowning eyes, the strawberries looked very delicious. "What brings you here, Mr. Ambassador?" "You said you were scared and couldn''t sleep because you were worried about your mother being alone in a far away country. So I have to do something, right?" There was no way it could have such a profound meaning, Kwon Taek Joo stood with his arms crossed, wondering. "Just how many days have you been going back and forth? According to my mother, it wasn''t once or twice?" "What does that have to do with anything? My mother likes it very much." "There is some mistake here. What mother doesn''t want her son to look good in the eyes of his superiors?" Zhenya shrugged. If he says more, his mouth will only hurt. Seeing him at home only makes Kwon Taek Joo feel more tired. He reached out and loosened the tie around his neck, then unbuttoned a few uncomfortable buttons on his shirt. Kwon Taek Joo had been in the dry plane for a long time so his throat was also dry. He wanted to eat some fruit first. Kwon Taek Joo did not hesitate to approach Zhenya. He sat close to the table, one eye was staring at the top of his head. Kwon Taek Joo ignored it and picked up the strawberry to take a bite. The refreshing juice spreads out, instantly refreshing the dry palate. Kwon Taek Joo quickly ate a bite, then picked up an apple and asked about Zhenya''s recent situation. "What about work at the embassy?" "You don''t need to worry. I said I would appoint a qualified assistant." "How can my country be so good to me?" "If you still don''t know, will you teach me?" Zhenya muttered and slowly ran his fingers across Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. The unexpected touch gave him goosebumps. He was startled and dropped the strawberry he was holding in his hand. On the white shirt there was a light pink stain. Kwon Taek Joo sighed and was about to take off his shirt but he immediately stopped. He really wanted to put the shirt in the laundry basket and take a shower, but that was unthinkable in front of Zhenya. It''s been a while since Kwon Taek Joo saw him again even if it''s just a small stimulus, Zhenya might rush onto him. His mother was about to return, he absolutely cannot let such a situation happen. Kwon Taek Joo regretfully glanced at the bathroom. Zhenya saw through the reason without difficulty and grinned. "It''s so dark." "What?" "I told you, I''ll stay here." Zhenya obnoxiously claims innocence. Didn''t he touch his neck just now? If Zhenya had just sat still, nothing would have happened. Kwon Taek Joo can''t go to the bathroom even without any provocation from him. Even if he didn''t have that thought, he didn''t know if Zhenya had dark thoughts or not. "Don''t be too cautious. That way, only you will suffer." Now we are even pushing the responsibility. That''s ridiculous. Kwon Taek Joo glared at Zhenya''s shameless face and quickly stood up. He went into the room and brought a change of clothes. He obediently sat quietly on the sofa. Kwon Taek Joo took off his wet shirt, threw it in the laundry basket and went into the bathroom. He locked the door from the inside. But for some reason the door couldn''t close tightly, it felt like something was stuck, Kwon Taek Joo turned around to look curiously. Zhenya had been standing there all along, holding the door tightly. "Hey, you said something different just now." Kwon Taek Joo frowned in protest, but there was no way it would work. Zhenya''s pupils narrowed with excitement. "I was going to sit still, but I don''t think I can." "This crazy guy. Don''t go into heat anytime soon." Kwon Taek Joo used his whole body to push the door, but it did not close. On the contrary, the gap only widens. The wooden panel is bent by force from both sides. If it endured it any longer, the wooden panel would probably break. If so, how will Kwon Taek Joo explain to his mother that is coming back? The door was so old that you could break it in half alone? How can he believe that? The door arched and began to creak, Kwon Taek Joo gave up and let go. At that moment, the door opened wide and Zhenya rushed inside. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s face with both hands and just touched his lips. Zhenya''s unstrapped lips fell over his eyes, then his forehead, then slid down his nose and onto his lips. Then Zhenya happily licked his cheek and gently touched the corner of his lips. Kwon Taek Joo was about to try to argue whether these things were sweet or not, but during that time, Zhenya placed his lips on his. The feeling of softness and wet sound begins to concentrate on the lips. Zhenya gently sucked Kwon Taek Joo''s upper lip and then smiled softly. "It''s fine here." Zeana smirked. While Kwon Taek Joo still stood there dreamily, Zhenya quickly kissed him. Hot breath filled his mouth and spread to his throat. His head naturally tilted back. Just like that, Kwon Taek Joo was pushed back and his thigh accidentally touched the sink. Zhenya did not stop there but continued to pressure Kwon Taek Joo. His upper body was constantly pressed down and pressured to the point that his waist stiffened. Just as he winced, Zhenya placed his lips on his and lifted Kwon Taek Joo to sit on the sink. Zeana lifted his chin and bit his bottom lip. then released it, then bit it again before suddenly sliding his tongue inside. The tongue mixed together and the sweet flavors of strawberries and apples spread in the mouth, saliva kept rising. Zeana sucked hard on Kwon Taek Joo''s tongue. which was about to suffocate in a sea of boiling saliva, the pressure as if pulling the tongue out. Finally, the tongue pulled out of his mouth and saliva flowed down his chin. The person playing with Kwon Taek Joo''s tongue bent down to kiss around the wet chin. When Zhenya''s lips gradually fell down his neck like flowing water. Kwon Taek Joo quickly patted his shoulder. "Hey, wait. Stop for a moment." Zeana''s lips parted at the declaration of an emergency ceasefire. Kwon Taek Joo took advantage of that time to take a breath. Zhenya stared at him with a red face then lowered his head to hug his collarbone and nibble the skin on it. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed Zhenya''s face with both hands and pulled him in front of him as he attacked persistently as if he had been starved for several days. "Stop for a moment. If you behave obediently now, I will definitely listen to you later." Kwon Taek Joo proposed a quite reasonable proposal. However, Zhenya just looked into his eyes without much reaction, as if wanting to confirm the sincerity of those words. He felt dissatisfied with having to believe in promises and having to restrain his current desires. Zhenya''s face was pushed away with an expression wondering if he had been tricked or not. "It''s really piling up." Zhenya does not hide his lust. He grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s hands that were covering his face and slowly pulled them down. The two people''s eyes met through their outstretched fingers. The two eyes began to shine with a slight fire. "Hm." But not long after, Kwon Taek Joo frowned and groaned, because Zhenya suddenly sank his teeth into the inside of his wrist. Kwon Taek Joo tried to pull his arm back but was bitten harder. There was a dark kiss mark there when Zhenya''s lips parted. At that moment there was the sound of the front door unlocking, it seemed like his mother had returned. No matter how you look at it, the image of two grown men entering a cramped bathroom is not normal. Zhenya smiled happily watching Kwon Taek Joo''s confusion. "I''m really looking forward to it later!" Zhenya whispered softly then obediently closed the door and went out. Kwon Taek Joo heard his mother telling the boy to wait a bit because she would prepare the meal right away. Of course it was Korean which Zhenya couldn''t understand. After Zhenya''s brief answers, the two exchanged several different stories. The special thing is that Kwon Taek Joo''s mother speaks Korean and Zhenya speaks Russian. He put his ear on the door and eavesdropped on the conversation. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t help but laugh. The way they talk is so different, there is no answer to any question. However, it was miraculous that the atmosphere was not broken at all. Other than concerns, the two seem to have lived very harmoniously together in recent times. He must go take a shower. Kwon Taek Joo took off all the remaining clothes on his body and was about to go to the bathroom. Suddenly, a sentence from Zhenya from outside made his heart almost fall. "Thanks to you, I will get something cool. I will receive full service from your son." (I hope this sentence makes sense, but in short Zhenya is just saying that he will receive sex from Kwon Taek Joo) This kid... Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the door handle and let go. He couldn''t suddenly run out naked and grab that bastard''s neck. It was lucky because his mother did not understand Russian at all. Kwon Taek Joo finished showering and went out, his mother was still engrossed in cooking. Zhenya stood sideways toward the nearby kitchen table. The crossed-arms look doesn''t seem to be particularly helpful. He just attentively watched his mother prepare the meal while chattering happily. He didn''t know if it''s almost done cooking or not, but the aroma was overwhelming. Even the steam rising from the rice cooker makes the atmosphere in the kitchen warmer. The sound of dishes clinking together also adds comfort. Just standing still and looking makes Kwon Taek Joo feel like his tired mood has improved a lot. Zhenya felt that gaze and turned his head towards Kwon Taek Joo. He looked at him without looking away. Kwon Taek Joo was also looking towards Zhenya with a rare friendly face. At that time, Kwon Taek Joo''s mother picked up the marinated bean sprouts and asked him to taste it. Zhenya just stared at the bean sprouts presented in front of him, as if he didn''t understand what to do with it. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and approached the two. He hugged his mother''s shoulders from behind and suddenly ate the offered bean sprouts. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo strangely as he chewed the unprepared food. "Um, it''s delicious. The ambassador is truly blessed. My mother cooks so well. Not everyone can taste it." "Oh mom, ah you''re really.. No, it''s really not that good." The mother covered her mouth and laughed and lightly punched Kwon Taek Joo''s hip. That was a signal for him to quickly prepare the table. The son returned after two months, but in front of his superiors, he had to be given priority first. Kwon Taek Joo quietly took out spoons, chopsticks and side dishes. His mother said to sit down and then personally pulled Zhenya''s chair out a bit. Zhenya sat down familiarly and looked at the long iron rod placed on the table. Only then did Kwon Taek Joo remember and take out a fork that looked like a foreign object and gave it to him. The table was quickly filled with food. Zhenya looked around at the colorful dishes and muttered uninspiredly. "It smells strange." His mother''s eyes lit up and asked, "What is it?". Kwon Taek Joo''s mother couldn''t understand, so he spoke poorly. "It''s so delicious, he''s sure he can eat a lot." "Oh, Ambassador, please eat a lot." Kwon Taek Joo''s mother pushed the side dishes forward and offered them to Zhenya. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo bewilderedly. He just smiled fakely and nibbled on the food, then rolled his eyes and told him to eat quickly. Zhenya glared at the face that Kwon Taek Joo only showed in front of his mother and picked up his fork. The hand holding the fork was a bit hesitant, the fork was wandering on the table. Just then, the fork stuck into the cutest looking piece of pickled cucumber and Zhenya popped it into his mouth Zhenya''s chin moved slowly and then suddenly stopped. Sure enough, for a while, he said nothing, didn''t move and covered his mouth with his fist. The tip of the fork in the boy''s hand also seemed to tremble slightly. His mother seemed worried about the unusual reaction. "Not to your taste?" "No way. He eats Korean food very well. It''s probably so delicious that he''s touched." (Not Kwon Taek Joo lying haha) His mother continued to pick up the dishes one by one and piled them into Zhenya''s rice bowl. Kwon Taek Joo rested his chin on his hand and leaned towards Zhenya with a gentle smile. His expression was quite friendly, but that smile was not really sincere. Under the dining table, Kwon Taek Joo lightly kicked his leg. Zhenya put strength into his chin. He stared dissatisfiedly at Kwon Taek Joo and then silently continued his meal as if nothing happened. A smile appeared on the worried mother''s face again. She explained the effectiveness of the ingredients used and repeatedly asked everyone not to be shy and eat a lot. When Zhenya''s cup was empty, his mother immediately poured water and enjoyed the sight of him eating contentedly. It seemed like his mother wasn''t pretending to flatter Kwon Taek Joo''s superiors, but she was actually very excited that Zhenya was here. Being alone in a house without Kwon Taek Joo was also very difficult. She didn''t know how long it has been since there has been such vitality in the house. Kwon Taek Joo is often away from home because of work, and even when he stops by, he only sleeps. Part of it was because he had a lot to hide from his mother, but that wasn''t all. It seems that she is not that close to her son. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo stared at Zhenya. Surely this brat had his own dark inner self, but he should be a little proud that Zhenya had kept an eye on his mother while he was unaware. After a while, their eyes met. "Eat slowly." Kwon Taek Joo picked up a piece of fish directly onto Zhenya''s spoon. He didn''t eat it right away but just stared at the spoon. In a deep place that hands cannot reach there is a gentle and delicate feeling lingering. -- "You guys can sleep and then go." The mother followed to the front of the elevator to express her regret. Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo, this little woman seemed to be asking for something with such a regretful face. Kwon Taek Joo shrugged and translated deceitfully. "Mom told you to go away quickly." Zhenya''s gaze fell suspiciously. Kwon Taek Joo ignored and stopped her mother. "Oh, mom too. Why does it come to that? Ambassador, is it comfortable to sleep at my house? Look at this. It will be awkward for him." Zhenya''s expression didn''t change at all, but Kwon Taek Joo said he was feeling awkward. Then he lifted his mother''s back. "I''ll take the ambassador home and have a drink on the way. I don''t know if it''s late or not, so go to bed first. Oh, don''t worry mom, I''ll take good care of him." His mother happily agreed. Although performing well with the ambassador had nothing to do with promotion, Kwon Taek Joo''s mother was enthusiastic. The mother watched both of them get into the elevator before going into the house. As soon as the door closed, Zhenya stuck to him. "Hey", even if he protested, he didn''t mind and continued to bury his face in the other person''s hair. At times like these, Kwon Taek Joo feels like he''s raising a big dog, not just a crocodile. Zhenya''s car was parked in the underground parking lot. Like its owner, it flaunts an existence that cannot be ignored. The already narrow parking lot looks more cramped. So everyone just stays away from it? The Bugatti was empty. Anyway, no more worrying about parking. "Are you driving?" "I''ll drive." Zhenya started the engine and nodded to get in the car. He sat in the driver''s seat and Kwon Taek Joo was in the passenger seat sitting next to him. "Clack", as soon as the door was closed, the car slid out of the parking lot. Kwon Taek Joo leaned his chair back deeply and leaned down comfortably. There was no music in the car, only engine noise. The city center late at night was almost empty of cars and people. Kwon Taek Joo looked far into the street lights. He was tired after eating and taking a bath. The gentle vibrations transmitted from the car''s body also contributed to making his body more lethargic. Not long after, Zhenya''s Bugatti arrived in front of his house. When the sensor in the garage is activated, the rolling door opens. Zeana drove inside and turned off the engine. At the same time, the lights in the car also turned off. "Here." Zhenya opened the door and was about to get out of the car, but he looked back at Kwon Taek Joo who had been silent all this time. They arrived but he didn''t make any movement. Zeana leaned over to take a look, Kwon Taek Joo completely tilted his head and fell asleep, sighing deeply and seemingly very tired. Having to wake Kwon Taek Joo up to receive the service he was promised. Zhenya observed Kwon Taek Joo sleeping for a while longer and then got out of the car. Then he walked around the body of the car and opened the passenger door. Kwon Taek Joo''s body leaned that way and slowly fell down. Zhenya grabbed him, then gently slung him over one shoulder and leisurely walked into the house. Kwon Taek Joo fell asleep and was put to bed. The soft mattress supported his body, Kwon Taek Joo instinctively rubbed his face and then dreamily and unconsciously crawled into the blanket. Zhenya looked at that figure while unbuttoning his shirt. The corner of his mouth lifted up to form a long curve. Kwon Taek Joo fell into a deep sleep without knowing what was about to happen to him. (Not again hahaha, he really wants what he was promised) Chapter 61 - 4.15 Honey Trap 3 Chapter 61 - 4.15 Honey Trap 3"Hmm?" Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes opened wide. Whether it looks familiar or not, the ceiling quickly fills the view. How did he get here? Kwon Taek Joo recalled the memories of last night. He remembered leaving the house and getting into Zhenya''s car, but he didn''t remember getting out of the car himself. It seemed like his consciousness was cut off midway. That''s also because he hasn''t been able to sleep properly for a long time recently. Kwon Taek Joo rolled his eyes and looked around. The place where he was staying seemed to be the Zhenya family''s bedroom. He had only been here once before going on a business trip. so he was still a bit confused. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen, and Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t feel his presence either. Or maybe Zhenya isn''t home. He vaguely speculated but had no intention of getting up to confirm. Zhenya''s body odor was still wafting onto the bed sheets. Regardless, he buried his head in it. Suddenly the blanket slipped off. Even though it was summer, he suddenly felt unusually cold, because Kwon Taek Joo didn''t have a single piece of clothing on. Thinking back, his mind felt refreshed as if he had just experienced a deep sleep, but his body felt stiff and sore as if he had struggled all night. And that discomfort is especially concentrated in the groin. Kwon Taek Joo sat up and immediately grabbed his aching waist. He groaned and checked the area between his legs. It was unexpectedly clean. However, everywhere he can see there are colorful hickeys. The insides of his thighs were covered in dark red bruises. Did Kwon Taek Joo not know that he was bitten like this? He seemed dumbfounded by the loss of feeling in his body. Kwon Taek Joo tried to stand up from the bed but his legs had completely lost all strength. Just sitting down made the inside of his butt numb beyond words. Even without careful inspection, it is clear what condition he is in. "We did it, right?" Kwon Taek Joo muttered uselessly. And it didn''t seem like it was over in just one or two sessions, but he actually slept very well. "What happened?" Kwon Taek Joo looked down at his lower body and asked. There was no response, so he could only feel it by feeling. Looking at it without any vitality, it was enough to see that it had fallen asleep like him. Damn Zhenya, he''s the only one who''s happy. He was so thirsty, Kwon Taek Joo went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. Inside was empty, with only a few bottles of bottled water lying around. Kwon Taek Joo was grateful for that simple thing, then opened the bottle and took a sip. Every time the collarbone moves, the skin around the neck with countless bites becomes itchy. Kwon Taek Joo wiped his wet lips with the back of his hand while observing the inside of the house. The house looks like a model house. The bed, sofa and TV are all fully equipped but there is absolutely no sense of living here, as if they have never been used since they were purchased. Kwon Taek Joo threw himself down on the sofa that had a slight leather smell. Where did that guy go anyway? It was a weekday, but he was sure that Zeana was not at work at the embassy. Not knowing how long he would wait, Kwon Taek Joo turned on the TV to watch. The noon news is being broadcast. Kwon Taek Joo absentmindedly looked at the screen and suddenly remembered his mother. Thinking back, he hadn''t been able to contact her until now after saving he would be home late. Kwon Taek Joo went straight to the bedroom and found the phone. The battery is less than 10%. Sure enough, he received a missed call from his mother. a text message asking where he slept and if he went to work. Kwon Taek Joo pressed the call button. Not long after. "Hello" his mother picked up the phone. "Mom, it''s me. Yesterday I drank too much so I didn''t go home. They didn''t let me go home until morning. I''ll go take a sauna and then go straight to headquarters." "Oh my God. You are not allowed to eat fake wine soup." "I will go eat now." "How much did you drink to make your voice so hoarse? Are you tired?" There is another reason why Kwon Taek Joo''s voice is hoarse, but even he couldn''t say it. He just blamed everything on alcohol and reassured his mother that he would be home soon. When the call ended, Kwon Taek Joo felt a presence at the front door. He looked outside, Zhenya had just entered the house with a heavy plastic bag in his hand, it looked like he had returned from the convenience store. Zeana placed his purchases on the table and stared at Kwon Taek Joo. For some reason, his face seemed happier than yesterday. He put down his phone and approached Zhenya. "Did something happen last night?" "It''s because it hasn''t been filled in for a while? It seems tighter than before. I was only going to do it twice, but because of that hole.." Zhenya was shameless and didn''t change his expression, Kwon Taek Joo immediately raised his hand to cover the bastard''s mouth. The guy immediately licked his palm, then grabbed his hips and pressed on Kwon Taek Joo''s lower abdomen. "If you feel sorry, you can do it again now. The day is still long." "I''m trying to enjoy the long day." Kwon Taek Joo tried to defend and push away Zhenya''s chin that was stuck to him. Zhenya gently lifted Kwon Taek Joo up and placed him on the table. Things bought at the convenience store spilled out, some of them fell to the floor making loud sounds. When Kwon Taek Joo reflexively turned to look at the falling object, Zhenya grabbed his chin and turned him towards her. Blue eyes filled his face, eyes looking straight at him looked quite serious. Every time he looked at that gentle face, Kwon Taek Joo felt like he was disarmed. He often gets carried away without even realizing that his heart rate and pulse are becoming irregular. This time is no different. His heart softened, and he also relaxed the hand that was pushing Zhenya away. The sensitive guy noticed that change and slowly approached. A sigh came out as the parted lips were falling. At a distance where the bridge of their noses were about to touch, Kwon Taek Joo stared at Zhenya''s lips, and he looked straight into Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes, his thin, broken breath trembling uncontrollably. Zhenya continued to kiss him forcefully. Zhenya''s upper lip surrounded Kwon Taek Joo''s lower lip and then pressed firmly on his face. Kwon Taek Joo bit his upper lip and grabbed Zhenya''s face. He naturally leaned back as if clinging to Zhenya. Chok, chok, the sound was repeated over and over again from two lips that met and gradually wrapped tightly around each other. His body also gradually grew hotter. It would be great if he could focus on that, but the sound of the unturned TV kept entering his ears. It was news that the North was recently conducting a missile test in the presence of the supreme leader, and when the government expressed regret, public opinion poured out strong criticism. . It''s not a matter of one day, but whenever the relationship with North Korea becomes tense, Kwon Taek Joo has no choice but to worry. It''s like an occupational disease of yours. "..ah.. Come on..." Kwon Taek Joo muttered like an ominous omen. Zhenya was kissing his chin and neck, finally looking up at the TV. On the screen, North Korea''s missile launch data is being broadcast. Zhenya went straight to the TV and unplugged it. He pulled it so hard that the plug shook. At that moment, Kwon Taek Joo''s phone vibrated. He awkwardly checked the sender and then sighed as if the ground was disappearing. Zhenya turned him around and pulled Kwon Taek Joo''s legs and placed them completely on the table. He leaned towards him then turned his head and tried to kiss him again. The lips without hesitation fell down to meet Kwon Taek Joo''s lips, it wasn''t his lips, but his stiff cell phone, because Kwon Taek Joo suddenly put the phone between his lips. "Headquarters called." Kwon Taek Joo announced with an annoyed expression. He gently pushed Zhenya''s shoulder then stood up and walked down the table. Zhenya''s dissatisfied eyes followed him. -- Kwon Taek Joo got dressed and answered the phone. When he buttoned up his shirt, the call ended. Feeling Zhenya''s gaze, Kwon Taek Joo turned his head. Zhenya has been standing in front of the door ever since he reported the sad news. "I have to go to headquarters. They called" There''s no way headquarters wouldn''t know that Kwon Taek Joo just returned yesterday. Yet they still call. So, either there was a problem with the previous job, or another urgent task arose. Whatever it is, it wasn''t going to be fun. Kwon Taek Joo left the house without looking back. The door made a loud noise and then closed. Finally, only Zhenya was left alone in the large house. He stared at the ramen packages scattered on the floor with dissatisfied eyes. So what''s the point of coming to Korea? Looks like Zhenya has to prepare countermeasures. -- "Senior, don''t you need a lot of rest?" Yoon Jong Woo was there to welcome Kwon Taek Joo when he entered the headquarters. The boy glanced at his frowning face for no reason. He calmly nodded and put his arm around Yoon Jong Woo''s shoulder. He shouted soundlessly as he tensed his body and then grunted and groaned. He ignored Yoon Jong Woo when he couldn''t leave the overworked gunman alone and personally took him to the manager''s office. Chief Kwak is the new person filling the vacancy of Chief Lim. Although he is not an agent like Chief Lim, he is so knowledgeable about North Korea that he is in turn rated as the Minister of Unification. If there is one thing in common with Chief Lim, it is the harsh way he treats his subordinates. No matter how physically strong Kwon Taek Joo is, his blood will run out after a few months without rest. People can die from overwork, right? He arrived in front of Chief Kwak''s office and proved that he would not be assigned the new assignment. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and knocked on the door. "Come in." He regained his composure and went inside. When Kwon Taek Joo, who had been waiting for a while, appeared, Chief Kwak glanced at the chair opposite. He quietly walked there, then gently bowed his head and sat down. First, Head of Department Kwak expressed his admiration for the achievements he has achieved in recent times. "It was a lot of work to get the final iob done safely." "Yes, that''s what I should do." "I heard that you are very proud of your achievements, but the more I meet you, the more I understand that." He laughed and changed the subject, asking, "Have you seen the news today?" "Is it because of the missile testing conducted in North Korea?" "Right. Recently, intelligence information obtained shows that the locations of missile launch pads in North Korea have been changed a lot. Just yesterday, it was reported that the launch pad was aiming into the sky, and before that a missile test was conducted under the supervision of the supreme leadership. I don''t know if it''s related, but I heard that a high-ranking North Korean official will soon be making an unofficial visit to China. You go and find out what''s going on." "You mean right now?" "I knew you were tired when you got back yesterday. But what if the problem is urgent?" Kwon Taek Joo raised his eyebrows looking very sad, but he seemed to have no intention of handing over the job to someone else. "I left because you told me to. but I don''t know what to say to my mother." "If necessary, I will even give you an official document in disguise. You can also get help from the Russian embassy where you work." "That work.." "What''s up? You seem quite close to him, right? The two often come and go together privately" "You seem to know a lot.." "I''m just trying to be friendly with my subordinates." Chief Kwak smiled sarcastically. It seemed like the raccoon had left and the snake had arrived. He didn''t want to talk too long so he quietly stood up and nodded. Manager Kwak saw Kwon Taek Joo off as he left the office without making a sound and said, "Let''s go drink together when you get back." Kwon Taek Joo sighed. Right now he doesn''t know if he lived for work or work to live, He doesn''t want anything but just wants to rest. Once this mission is completed, it looks like he will have to take a leave of absence. How should he explain this to his mother? What would he say to Zhenya? It''s so stuffy. If he confessed honestly, he might be tied up. Wouldn''t it be better to announce it after he left? Kwon Taek Joo considered many different reasons and then went straight home. It was disappointing that his mother was not at home, it seemed she had aone out to the market. It also didn''t look like Zhenya had come to the house. Is he quietly waiting for Kwon Taek Joo at his house? He packed his things with tons of thoughts in his head. His mother did not return when Kwon Taek Joo was about to leave. And there has been no communication from Zhenya either. -- He called a taxi and told the driver to go straight to the airport. Looking out the window for a moment, he called his mother. "Yes, son. What?" "I stopped by the house but mom wasn''t home, I''m gone now. I probably won''t be able to go home for a while because I''m busy with work. I told my mother last time. There is a large-scale event organized by the embassy for a month. This business trip will be extremely busy because I have a lot of work to share with the Russian department, not many people are going to work and the time zone difference." "Uh, you must be very tired. Mom, it''s okay, don''t work late and eat well." "It''s just a little uncomfortable. It''s a job that has to be done every day." Maybe his mother will make some side dishes, right? Has he bought new clothes for his mother yet? "Food will be served and you''ve got everything you need. I''m just calling to say don''t worry if I can''t contact you for a while. I hope you take good care of yourself too" "You talk like you''ll be gone for a long time" "Mom, I have to go. I will contact you later." "Yes, work hard." After the call ended. Kwon Taek Joo continued to look at the phone. Since he was leaving right now, he should have contacted Zhenya. The problem is that no excuse fits him. Normally, Zhenya would try to interfere by forcing him to refuse the new mission, and he was also uncomfortable with being apart all that time. After thinking for a while, Kwon Taek Joo tried calling Zhenya. However, for some reason, there was only a continuous ringing sound. Of course that guy doesn''t always wait for Kwon Taek Joo. He may not answer the phone once or twice. But he was now worried, because it rarely happened before and Zhenya always contacted him first, and he also had no contacts in Korea other than him. Is he sulky? Kwon Taek Joo thought about leaving a message, but decided against it. If Zhenya was truly sulky, it seemed like he should reassure him with words rather than making a unilateral announcement, and also to avoid future consequences. The taxi quickly arrived at the airport. Kwon Taek Joo checked in early after receiving pre-booked tickets at the headquarters. Before entering the departure hall, he called Zhenya again. But this time, the other end of the line was also silent. After going through the scanner, he continued to try calling when he reached the boarding gate. Many times but it''s all in vain. Kwon Taek Joo lifted his sleeve to check the time. It''s time to board the plane. He didn''t know how many days this mission would last. Finally, he touched the call button again but could not hear Zhenya''s voice. Looking at the call history that has been accumulated since now. Kwon Taek Joo feels like a stalker without cause. "I guess he can''t answer." He gave up, but still couldn''t take his eyes off the phone. Even though he didn''t turn off the power, how could Zhenya not answer the phone until this hour? Of course, even if something goes wrong, Kwon Taek Joo should worry about someone else, not Zhenya. Even so, the mouse pressed the call button as if thinking about the cat. "Please answer the phone." Kwon Taek Joo muttered. At the same time, a voice instruction came out asking everyone to board the plane as soon as possible. And on the phone, there were still just indifferent beeps that kept dropping. (Cute how Kwon Taek Joo is the mouse and Zhenya is the cat) Suddenly the beeping stopped. Then came the breathing sound of the man he had been waiting for all this time. Zhenya is outside and there is a lot of noise. The other end of the line spoke before Kwon Taek Joo could open his mouth. "I''m busy now. Let''s talk later." "What?" As soon as he asked again, the call ended. Kwon Taek Joo looked down at the phone bewilderedly. Call connection time is less than 3 seconds. Needless to say. he felt quite embarrassed. Is Zhenya busy, is he going to the embassy? Luckily, there didn''t seem to be any problems. sea??h th§× n??el Fire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo left a message saying he was going abroad for a while for work, then turned off his phone and got on the plane. -- The flight is about two hours to Beijing. Kwon Taek Joo joined the crowd and went to the immigration checkpoint. An airport employee stands holding a sign in the reception hall. Kwon Taek Joo''s name is openly written on it. "Mr. Kwon?" He approached Kwon Taek Joo, asking if he could predict his facial features. The feeling of deja vu came rushing back. This time too, Kwon Taek Joo did not hear that anyone special would come to welcome him. He opened his cell phone, but there were no messages on it other than the text message sent when entering a foreign country. Has his existence been exposed? If so, it is necessary to confirm who is trying to reach him and for what purpose. The other person already knew about his identity and appearance, but he couldn''t refuse blindly After pondering, Kwon Taek Joo slowly nodded. "Please follow me." He went first. Kwon Taek Joo followed silently and took out his prescription glasses and put them on. If he breaks the stem of the glasses and pulls it out, a needle containing a powerful anesthetic will come out. Kwon Taek Joo can''t afford to assemble a gun right now, so he''s trying to prepare for an emergency with that. Kwon Taek Joo left the crowded scanner table, and the surroundings became even more deserted. The employee walked ahead of him to the elevator and occasionally checked to see if Kwon Taek Joo was following him. Kwon Taek Joo followed him up to a mezzanine, where there was a waiting room. It doesn''t even have a name so it seems like it''s used by a designated few. There was not even a single person around at this time. The staff member guided Kwon Taek Joo to that place, knocked on the closed door, bowed politely and left. After confirming that he had gone down, Kwon Taek Joo quietly took off his glasses. Then he bent the glasses and held them tightly in his hands. When he opened the door, the panoramic view of the runway outside the window filled the view. And an unexpected person was sitting in front of Kwon Taek Joo. "Why don''t you put it on?" He folded his glasses and held them in his hand. He immediately realized Kwon Taek Joo''s ulterior motive and even laughed at him, It''s Zhenya. The boy who should have been in Korea was sitting with his back facing the runway of Beijing airport. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand. "What''s going on?" "Want anything to drink? We still have a little time before we get on the plane." Zhenya didn''t answer the question but just sat there relaxing. He snapped his fingers signaling him to come closer. Kwon Taek Joo walked over as requested and sat down on the opposite side. "Explain. Why are you here?" Zhenya threw a paper envelope at Kwon Taek Joo. A series of confusing situations. He frowned. Zhenya nodded towards the envelope and told him to check its contents, then poured the wine into a glass and enjoyed its aroma. Kwon Taek Joo looked at him suspiciously for a moment then opened the envelope first. He took out the papers inside and flipped through them without thinking much. But not long after, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes widened. "This.." He stared at Zhenya, as if trying to make sure he wasn''t mistaken about what was in front of him. Zhenya quietly raised the corners of his mouth and took a sip of the sparkling wine in the glass. No matter how many times Kwon Taek Joo rereads it, it cannot be a mistake. That document is why he''s here now. The inside story of North Korea''s recent moves is fully written there. Where the hell did Zhenya get this from? Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t even think he used a legal way to get it. So, is this the reason why he couldn''t contact Zhenya, why there was so much noise around him when he picked up the phone and why Zhenya asked to talk later because he was busy? Kwon Taek Joo rechecked the report with confused eyes. "..Can I give this to you?" "Is there any reason why it wouldn''t work?" Zhenya calmly asked the question. Kwon Taek Joo wonders whether a Russian ambassador like him can exchange information freely for the benefit of another country. Of course, it''s just a precaution because it''s impossible for Zhenya''s every action to be tied to national security. But his goodwill could be a major diplomatic issue. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t shake his rampant anxiety. However, he could not ignore the sincerity that Zhenya had worked hard to achieve. "Do you really accept it? Don''t say anything later." "Only you are like that, Kwon Taek Joo." When did he say that? It was obviously blown away by the wind. Anyways.. What now? When everything suddenly went smoothly, things naturally became quite boring. Kwon Taek Joo also didn''t know how to inform headquarters about this. During tasks, intermediate situations need to be reported. This is to minimize the possibility of missing information and prevent leaving the site of operations. It seems like Kwon Taek Joo should contact them that he has arrived safely. "Wait a minute." He apologized and stood up. At that moment, Zhenya reached out and grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s phone. Then in the blink of an eye it was in the ice bucket and wine was poured on it. "What are you doing!?" Shocked, Kwon Taek Joo begins to rescue his phone. Zhenya also took his hand. "It will be troublesome if you call them." "What are you talking about? You crazy bastard!" "You have no commercial ethics at all. I bought you time, so how should you repay me? Since Kwon Taek Joo has completed what he had to do, he can now use his time as he wishes. Surely if he handed over these documents to headquarters, he would only receive empty praise and a new mission would be assigned immediately. The hamster wheel will spin continuously until the busy work is finished. Kwon Taek Joo relaxed his body. Even the phone that has crossed the river and can''t turn back can be easily given up. After all, thanks to Zhenya, he was able to get valuable information without having to lift a finger. Furthermore, because of the call from headquarters, he couldn''t keep his promise yesterday. It seemed like it would be fine to comply with Zhenya''s request this time. For that reason, he also had a little desire to rest. Kwon Taek Joo held Zhenya''s hand. "So, what do you want to do?" A satisfied smile appeared on Zhenya''s lips. Chapter 62 - 4.16 Honey Trap 4 Chapter 62 - 4.16 Honey Trap 4Taek Joo looked out the window from afar and muttered in resignation to himself. The scenery outside was very familiar, but not quite the same. Green lawns spread out around the villa instead of pure white snow fields, and vegetation grew densely in the forest instead of bare trees. The sky was cloudless, as if spring had come to this remote island. It feels so new. This is where Taek Joo was detained for many months. The space that once looked like a prison was now like a resort. The change in his feelings towards Zhenya seemed to make everything around him look so different. It was so quiet that there was almost nothing left. Just a feeling of comfort and goodness. It seemed like these past terrible days were all just a dream. S§×ar?h the Nov§×l?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Just as he looked out the window, a large shadow passed behind him. Even if he couldn''t see him, he could still recognize Zhenya by that unique scent. He rushed to bite Taek Joo''s neck, who was still absentmindedly thinking and not alert. Zhenya reached out and held Taek Joo''s stomach tightly, letting him lean on him. "Did you just wake up?" Taek joo whined in Zhenya''s ear, but it was no use. Zhenya pretened not to hear him and then continuously bit the back of his neck and undid each button of his shirt. The front of his shirt quickly loosened, revealing his solid body. Zhenya''s other hand reached in and squeezed both of his full breasts. Zhenya took a deep breath, and smelled Taek Joo''s body, then suddenly grabbed his arm. Zhenya threw him straight on the bed and tightened his grip on his body. His loosely worn shirt was also pulled off. His smooth, curvy body was clearly exposed and writhed. Zhenya slowly and gently ran his long fingers from Taek Joo''s neck down to his chest, then suddenly made a strange suggestion. "we can either do it once now or wait till we get back home, then well.. you know how I am, I could go all day" Why did he have to choose just one? Of course, no questions asked, it was definitely the first choice he wanted. Taek Joo decided they''d just do it once and then he could sleep some more. Just as he was about to answer, Zhenya added another condition. "But, if you want it now, then you''d better do it yourself." What? He wasn''t seriously asking Taek joo to ride him...right? When he looked at Zhenya confused, he just provoked him with a half-assed smile. Until now, Taek Joo had managed to get by whenever Zhenya was especially in the mood. Many times he fell asleep first or passed out from exhaustion, but Taek joo had never exactly done it himself. Thinking back, Taek Joo found himself quite passive. His physical strength was inherently far beyond normal standards, and he had never lost the initiative in relationships with the opposite sex. So there''s no reason to be indifferent just because the other person was Zhenya. "Then you''d better listen to me, okay?" Zhenya silently nodded at the unexpected request then quickly lifted Taek Joo up and placed him on top of him. Zhenya swept his hands across Kwon Taek joo''s smooth waist up to his chest and gently rubbed both his nipples. Taek Joo grabbed his hand and pulled it away from him. "Don''t touch me while I''m doing this." Knowing Zhenya something like that was easier said than done. Zhenya''s blue eyes protested silently. For a moment, Taek Joo moved his waist to rub between Zhenya''s legs and asked "Do you like it?". Zhenya just burst out laughing. "Just do as you wish." Taek Joo confidently put his hands behind him and leant on the bed to support his upper body. -- "Ahh.." Taek Joo put his finger in his hole and stretched it the best he could. He thought it would be better to do it himself instead of making Zhenya do it, but maybe he was wrong. He used a generous amount of lube but he was still just as stiff and tight. Taek Joo felt this strange softness in the deepest hidden place of his hole. He clenched his teeth at the strange feeling of grazing against his prostate. "Put some on my dick. I don''t wanna hear how it hurts" Zhenya leant back comfortably on the bed and gave his instructions. Taek Joo glared at the obnoxious guy and squeezed out a lot of lube. The slippery liquid slid down Zhenya''s ass and then ran down the back of his thighs. "You look like you''re covered in syrup." Zhenya looked at Taek Joo''s dick swinging in front of his face and then gently licked his lower lip. His burning blue eyes narrowed slightly. As soon as Taek Joo lowered his butt a little, something hard hit his thigh. Before Taek Joo could do anything, Zhenyas''s cock stood up and throbbed. Even when he tried to ignore it, it wriggled and rubbed against his ass. "Fuck your disgusting." He looked at his huge dick, with a displeased face, and pushed it away. He glared at Zhenya and he just gently smiled at Taek joo. Zhenya put his arms behind his head and shook his lower body some more just to piss him off. Taek Joo''s eyes automatically furrowed. Just looking at that huge thing and thinking about trying to stuff it into his stomach made him feel helpless. Taek Joo couldn''t tell if riding Zhenya would be any easier than just letting him pound into him relentlessly. The remaining lube in the bottle was poured onto Zhenya''s ugly dick. The cold gel suddenly flowed down his lower body, causing him to suddenly frown and then moan softly. The head of Zhenyas dick trembled slightly because of the strange cool feeling. Precum slowly began to build at the head. Taek Joo optimistically held the base of Zhenyas cock, which even with his large hands it was hard to grab. He braced himself against Zhenya''s stomach and then guided it to his hole. Even though it just gently brushed over his hole, Zhenya''s cock spurted out, leaving a trail of cum running down Take joo''s leg. Did he really just.. (Damn, someone is hungry) Taek Joo laughed surprisingly at Zhenya and just slowly sat down. His lower abdomen naturally tightened and his abs became more prominent. His hole sucked Zhenya in with difficulty. Zhenya''s head tilted back, and his curled eyelashes twitched slightly. "Ah!" Taek Joo gasped as his hole stretched as far as it could. He raised his knees and adjusted his breathing. Taking in Zhenya''s huge dick wasn''t easy. Taek Joo groaned and put pressure on his lower body again. He thought he had stretched himself out enough but taking Zhenya in so deep was no simple task. Taek Joo was confused and didn''t know what to do. No matter what position he was in, he felt uncomfortable. Zhenya looked at his struggling appearance with burning eyes. He liked it when Taek Joo teased him like that. Zhenya just bit his lower lip. Zhenya suddenly moved his hand to Taek Joo''s waist. He intended to grab his whole body and push it down. But Taek Joo was one step ahead of him. He grabbed Zhenya''s hand and looked at him with disapproving eyes, then reminded him of his promise. Zhenya reluctantly clicked his tongue and bit his hand. Taek Joo continued to lower himself further down. His spine stiffened from exerting so much strength in trying not to fall straight down on Zhenya, even his vision became blurry for a moment. "..ahh.. Haa" Taek Joo''s breath was intermittent as if something was stuck in his throat. Zhenya was equally miserable. The two of them did it a few times last night, so he thought things would go smoothly. Perhaps because Taek Joo was so stressed, even putting it in wasn''t easy. The feeling of the tightness below made Zhenya''s thighs twitch. Zhenya gritted his teeth and squinted one eye. "ugh.." Taek Joo looked at Zhenya curiously. It seemed like he had misheard a moaning sound, but Zhenya was breathing heavily with red eyes and ears, and his neck and abdominal muscles were constantly twisting from a seemingly insatiable thirst. Seeing Zhenya suffer in lust only made Taek joo want it more. At the moment Taek Joo looked away for a moment to reach for the lube bottle, Zhenya''s hips suddenly lifted "Ahhh!" Taek Joo shivered and his body bounced. His intruding dick was suddenly pulled out again. "Hey, don''t move!" "Just rest and let me do it for you." While he frowned in hesitation, Zhenya raised his back again. "Ahh!" This time, a real scream broke out. Taek Joo''s knees that were supporting his body lost their strength and he collapsed completely on top of Zhenya. He didn''t miss the opportunity to take over the situation. Zhenya thrusted as deep as he could into Taek joo. Before Taek Joo could straighten his slumped body, Zhenya greedily lifted his back. Zhenya''s thighs slammed against Taek Joo''s ass, creating a friction sound. His body suddenly flew into the air and then slammed straight back down. It felt like all the organs in Taek Joo''s stomach were being crushed. Although he tried to suppress it, Taek Joo still kept moaning, his whole body was burning with heat and sweat began to pour out all over his body. Zhenya slowly looked at Taek Joo''s sleek body and then reached out his hand. But Taek Joo flicked his hand away again. Even while enjoying the pleasure, he still didn''t want Zhenya''s hands on him. Zhenya gasped. He became grumpy. He showed his displeasure by pushing roughly on the lower half of his body. Taek Joo kept moaning, screaming and eventually collapsed. Not only Taek Joo''s butt but also Zhenya''s thighs where he was bouncing, became blood red Zhenya complacently looked at Taek Joo as he tore him apart and made him shake. Every time his body fell, his strong dick and breasts swayed as well. "Haa! ah..mnh haa!" Even when he tried to cling to Zhenya''s legs or stomach to support himself, it wasn''t easy because of the lube. Taek Joo stretched out his hand and grabbed the headboard, Zhenyas''s face was quickly buried in his leaning upper body. ".. ugh!" Taek Joo twisted his shoulders and moaned, because Zhenya suddenly stuck out his tongue and licked the nipple he had been begging for. Looking back, Taek joo had always been sensitive there. He had thought that the reason such a thing was attached to a man''s body was simply because without it it would look strange. Only after meeting Zhenya did Taek Joo realize that men could feel it just like women. "..Fuck I''ve always wanted to.." Zhenya muttered while rubbing his nipples with the pointed tip of his nose. He used the tip of his tongue to wrap around the soft flesh and suck it until Taek joo made a shrill sound. When the upper and lower parts of his body were attacked at the same time, Taek Joo''s body stiffened and trembled. He gritted his teeth, bowed his head, groaned and listened to his excited body Zhenya buried his head in Taek Joo''s chest. He pushed Zhenya''s shoulder, "Don''t do that.", but his upper body betrayed his reasoning and gradually clung tightly to the man''s face. His throbbing dick also rubbed its tip against Zhenya''s stomach. "Hey! ..fuck I said..not to touch me!" Taek Joo belatedly protested and took a deep breath. "Who said anything about touching you?" Zhenya jokingly raised his hands and brazenly protested. Even in that moment, Zhenya only went back to eating Taek joo up. "Ha ha! Uh haa uhm.." "Hah" Taek Joo hugged Zhenya''s neck and let out a muffled moan in his ear as Zhenya thrusted deep inside him. Every time Taek Joo''s body moved, his excited dick continuously rubbed against Zhenya''s toned stomach. The sudden change made him feel more dizzy and numb than happy. His skin was wet with sweat. Excited breaths exploded in each other''s ears, causing their body temperatures to increase. His head felt like it was on fire, his eyes felt like they were about to melt at any moment. Zhenya pushed his hot tongue into Taek Joo''s ear. He was excited as if he was about to reach his climax. Zhenya couldn''t stand it anymore and changed positions. He immediately turned them over and placed Taek Joo underneath him, pulled his legs up and slammed into him. "Ahh! Slow.. Slow down!" Zhenyas lower body pushed hard into him no matter how many times Taek Joo pushed him away, no matter how much he twisted and struggled, it was all in vain. As if the continuous thrusts weren''t enough, Zhenya completely crushed their bodies together. Zhenya slid his tongue into his mouth. "hm...," the moan was stuck in Taek Joo''s mouth. With black eyelashes and wet eyes Taek Joo''s chest expanded, his shoulders shook and his hole was hotly rubbed against. The violent giant moved in and out of Taek Joo''s crushed body. His toes turned white from the persistent grinding against his prostate. An intense burning sensation rushed straight into his stomach, making him want to cum. Taek Joo''s breath was sucked right out of his lungs and into Zhenya''s. His vision was reversed. Taek Joo turned his head away from the unbearable burning feeling. A heavy breath broke out, and the moans that only echoed in Zhenya''s mouth flowed out chaotically. "Ngh..mnph.. ah.. haa" His whole body shivered. Taek Joo''s cock rubbed roughly against Zhenya''s abs, and then exploded. His thick cum spurted out and splashed all over Zhenya''s chest, collarbone and chin. It then spread to Kwon Taek Joo''s body, Zhenya calmly licked the semen from his collarbone. "Ugh.. haa" A sound came from Zhenya. His lower abdomen moved closer. His sweaty ass was completely pressed tightly and glued to Zhenya''s waist. Something heavy and hot shot in his stomach. Taek Joo squinted his eyes and trembled from the heat inside. Zhenya seemed to want to crush his entire body, collapsing and gasping for air. He breathed heavily and was immersed in the deep aftertaste. Taek Joo just wanted to collapse and fall asleep. Zhenya raised his head. He closed his sweaty eyelids and quietly looked at Taek Joo. Taek Joo''s black eyelashes and wet eyes also looked at Zhenya without saying a word. Zhenya pursed his lips and licked his eyes as if he wanted to eat them. He groaned softly at the unfamiliar stimulation and cringed. Goosebumps arose on the back of his neck. Zhenya pulled out the penis that was still inside. Kwon Taek Joo wonders if Zhenya will keep his promise? What a mistake thinking that was. Zhenya picked up the lube bottle lying nearby and poured a new amount of it onto Taek joo''s thighs. "What are you doing? We already did it once..." "Mnhm, once. Until it has nothing left to come out even if you squeeze it, that''s one time." Taek Joo was about to try to argue but had to stay silent. Suddenly something cold was stabbed inside his butt. Gel-coated fingers dug in and scooped up the liquid that filled his stomach. Zhenya bit his lip and continued to clean him out. Zhenya then teased Kwon Taek Joo until he lost consciousness. An affectionate voice rang in his ear, "Taek Joo" the small call echoed for a long time. "Hmhm." Not knowing whether he was awake or dreaming, Kwon Taek Joo was in a dreamy pleasure on a deserted island that has no visitors. Chapter 63 - 4.17 Honey Trap 5 Chapter 63 - 4.17 Honey Trap 5Consciousness dimly returned. Kwon Taek Joo enjoyed the feeling of the bed gently supporting his body. His eyes were still closed because his body no longer had any strength. A gentle breeze blew through the half-open window. It was chilly outside, but where he was lying was still warm and the sun was tickling his back. Kwon Taek Joo thought it was a dream because of that extreme peace. Can he lie down a little longer? Kwon Taek Joo rubbed his head on the soft pillow. "..Yes." A shadow flickered across his closed eyelids. He could tell it was Zhenya just by his voice or his body odor. It seemed like someone was calling him. Every time he stops talking, the sound from the other end of the phone speaks out. Kwon Taek Joo noticed a stare falling on his body. It seemed that Zhenya just continued the phone call next to him while Kwon Taek Joo is "sleeping" on his stomach. Does he also have a hoarse voice? The voice of the other person was babbling on the phone sounded gentler than ever. (I put sleeping like that because he is obviously not sleeping) "Your son is still alive." Zhenya drawled his voice as if he was enjoying his words. The other person on the other end of the line was chatting again. Not sure why the voice seemed familiar, but Kwon Taek Joo wasn''t sure because he was still not completely awake. Suddenly one side of the mattress tilted down, and the body odor also became stronger. His eyes were now frankly staring down at him. Zhenya spoke in a relaxed tone. "Last night I thought things had gotten worse. He said he didn''t like it and hugged and didn''t let go. I almost didn''t stop and kept pounding into that narrow hole." (Getting very detailed here Zhenya.) This crazy guy, Who is listening to that kind of vulgar talk? Kwon Taek Joo''s consciousness suddenly became clear. He didn''t open his eyes right away but tried to find out who he was talking to and what he was talking about. "I don''t know what to do either. If I try to treat him like a woman, his self-esteem will be hurt. But it''s not just about taking care of a few delicious dishes. He''s not a dog or a horse. What if he runs away again? I''ll be really angry. It''s strange that I don''t want to kill him. I also felt uncomfortable, because the more I looked at him, the more I wanted him. Things that make me uncomfortable right in front of me must be eliminated.. But I don''t want to do that." A big dark shadow covered Kwon Taek Joo''s face. Zhenya''s hand seemed about to touch his face. Even in that situation, Kwon Taek Joo still turned a blind eye. Zhenya saying such things in front of him made him feel really awkward. The annoying man''s hand was slowly covering the area around Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. Thanks to that, the bright sunlight was obscured. Next, a calm, gentle voice echoed in the ear, continuing the story with the other person. "How could you give birth to someone like this? Huh? You have done such a good thing for me." (I hope this makes sense) It was lucky that Zhenya was covering his eyes, otherwise Kwon Taek Joo wouldn''t have been able to lie still and pretend to sleep. The phone call ended immediately after that. It seemed like the phone was placed somewhere on the bed. After that, Zhenya''s body temperature also became warmer. He leaned closer and whispered softly into Kwon Taek Joo''s ear "Your mother says hello." Why is he still pretending to sleep? Kwon Taek Joo quickly pushed away the bastard''s hand that was covering his eyes. In a blink of an eye, he saw Zhenya''s face with an evil smile. It seemed like Zhenya knew that Kwon Taek Joo had woken up a long time ago. He talked to his mother on the phone. What Zhenya just said was replayed in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. The skin on his face felt like it was about to burn. Of course, since Zhenya spoke in Russian all the time, his mother wouldn''t understand any of his profanity. But that''s not a reason to lighten the punishment for this bastard. "This bastard!" Kwon Taek Joo reached out to prepare to grab Zhenya''s collar, but he easily leaned to avoid it. From that useless attack, the forgotten pain suddenly rushed back all over his body. Kwon Taek Joo groaned and hugged his waist that seemed about to break in half. Zhenya grabbed his arm and pulled him out of bed. "Since you''re awake, take a shower and then eat." It''s not incorrect either. The growling sound was resounding from Kwon Taek Joo''s empty stomach. His already rising spirit suddenly lost all momentum. Zhenya smiled and walked out first. At times like these, Kwon Taek Joo resents being a human being who is hungry three times a day. Well, ignoring that bastard. He slowly rubbed his growling stomach and left the bedroom. He didn''t know how long he had been lying down, but the feeling of the soles of his feet touching the floor was strange. While walking past the kitchen and into the bathroom, Kwon Taek Joo smelled a familiar smell. He glanced and saw Zhenya boiling something in front of the stove. Come to think of it, he didn''t even take care of his meals that diligently. But Zhenya still didn''t forget Kwon Taek Joo''s dish. Is that a new form of entertainment for him? (I find it cute that Zhenya cooks the ramen for Kwon Taek Joo. Imagine going from being terrifying, blood-curdling, spine-chilling to being obedient.) Zhenya glared at the pot while boiling instant noodles, anyone looking would think he was cooking a whole pot of beef bone soup. Kwon Taek Joo laughed at the guy who was concentrating more than necessary. He looks lovely too. He unconsciously thought that and then suddenly woke up. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head and hurried into the bathroom. He finished showering and went into the kitchen, the finished ramen was waiting. Kwon Taek Joo was about to go to the table and sit down as usual, but Zhenya blocked him right in front of him. And he held out a mysterious black box. "What''s this?" Kwon Taek Joo reached out to receive it. The box was heavier than it looked, so his arms fell down. He almost dropped it. Zhenya looked at him with puzzled eyes and replied indifferently. "Anastasia." Ah, is that so? Anastasia. "...Wait.. What?" Kwon Taek Joo tried to understand then suddenly jumped up. Zhenya continued explaining like there was no mistake. "That''s the Anastasia you were looking for before." This is an unprecedented weapon that Russia and North Korea have been diligently producing for a long time. After the development failed, Anastasia itself took and buried countless lives. Kwon Taek Joo knew very well that only Zhenya could analyze the blueprints of ''Anastasia'' and that he was an expert when it came to weapons. The reason why the Russian government can''t do anything about the troublesome guy is also because of the fear that Zhenya will be able to recreate the ''second Anastasia''. If there was a real ''Anastasia'' in the world, its owner would definitely be Zhenya. (Damn, never mess with Kwon Taek Joo. Not with this monster haha) But on an uneventful morning, the unexpected item given to Kwon Taek Joo was ''Anastasia''. This is beyond his imagination. "Kwon Taek Joo, I give this to you." Zhenya was talking nonsense again while Kwon Taek Joo still couldn''t escape the shock. Was he joking this early in the morning? Kwon Taek Joo was about to put the box on the dining table. He was careful not to cause any trouble, but the guy who had been just watching all this time gave a leisurely warning. "You''ll have to treat it well. It is very sensitive and will explode at the slightest shock." What kind of mine is this? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t put the box down so he just held it in his arms. "Take it back. I don''t need this anymore, and I don''t care." "You have to dream big. As long as you have that, you can get your hands on anything you want, do you want to hold power? Do you want to become the richest person? Just say it out loud. It will be ready to help you." "I will receive the attention and attention of the world. I will become the target of any person who wants ''Anastasia'', will always be chased, and at any moment I will have to live as if I have one foot in death.. Just imagining it is stressful. I will never be able to live quietly and die as if I never existed. So, please take this trouble back." "Of course there''s pressure. That''s why I gave it to you." "What are you saying?" "Instead, you will receive a worthy price from me. You gave me something as precious as your life, so it''s only fair that you get something in return? So, don''t hesitate any longer and give yourself to me." (He gettin bold asking Kwon Taek Joo for that) That guy wanted to pay for the unnecessary thing he threw away himself. There is no love of the rich for the poor. In front of Kwon Taek Joo''s bewildered face, Zhenya took a step closer. He suddenly took a step back. It seemed like he heard something wonderful, but Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t just get caught up in an atmosphere like this. Zhenya always got his way, and the payment wouldn''t be as terrible as a loan shark. Zhenya told Kwon Taek Joo that what he was holding in his hand could explode. The warning siren in his head sounded. While he hesitated because he thought it would actually explode, Zhenya closed the distance. Soon, his entire face was covered in Zhenya''s enormous shadow. "You know, I do business at my core, so I don''t make any transactions that don''t make a profit." "What a funny bastard. So what is your profit?" Kwon Taek Joo objected, but Zhengy without hesitation brought his face closer. The feeling of a sudden change in the atmosphere was uncomfortable. Two men did things early in the morning. Kwon Taek Joo tried to retreat again but suddenly stopped because the hand holding Anastasia suddenly shook when his back suddenly touched the wall. As Zhenya had warned, it could explode with the slightest shock, and he didn''t want to end his life here like this. Zhenya''s hand approached Kwon Taek Joo. Zhenya ran his long fingers down his chin and down his neck. Blue eyes slowly and quietly followed the fingertips. Not long after, Zhenya raised his eyes to look straight at Kwon Taek Joo and then gently touched his protruding sternum. "It seems like there is no benefit now, but who knows." There will be greater profits later. Even when Zhenya gave a reasonable reason like business or profit, in his blue eyes there was only Kwon Taek Joo. Those blue eyes no longer showed the coldness of the reptile as usual, but today they carried within them an inappropriate desire. Looking at Zhenya completely immersed in him, Kwon Taek Joo smiled. For some reason, he remembered the moment he first met Zhenya, he was the first person to make Kwon Taek Joo feel scared. Did he ever imagine things would be like this. (Honestly I would look at Taek Joo like that too if I were Zhenya) Kwon Taek Joo shrugged slightly. He was the only one struggling to keep from being swept away when he dipped his foot into the rapids. But sometimes letting himself go with the flow isn''t so bad. "It is said that good memories of places, times and experiences with someone can evoke positive feelings towards that person." Now Kwon Taek Joo realizes that the real way to win Koshichei''s heart may be just that. "Then.. Don''t let me get bored when I''m with you, kid." ¡ª¡ª The reindeer were startled by the gunshots and quickly ran away. Without anyone telling anyone, the two of them kicked the ground and ran out. The green forest smells of damp moss. The fresh air exhaled from the green trees fills the lungs. Bright sunlight filtered through the dense canopy of birch trees. Everything that had been sleeping all winter seemed to wake up. The reindeer ran away quickly and crushed the tree. The two blindly pursued, scattering in different directions as if they had made an appointment in advance. Kwon Taek Joo''s heart beat as fast as the heavy footsteps of a running reindeer. Thump, thump. His skin also warmed up comfortably. After running non-stop, Kwon Taek Joo suddenly fell to one knee. He then aimed the rifle at the escaping reindeer. Kwon Taek Joo moved the gun along the swaying bushes, he held his breath and stared ahead. Not long after, the reindeer suddenly appeared. Kwon Taek Joo pulled the trigger without hesitation. The bullet made a fierce explosion and passed through the forest. It passed Zhenya who was running ahead. The running reindeer fell down. Zhenya, who was running after it, suddenly stopped. Did he win? Kwon Taek Joo hurriedly ran towards it. When he got closer, he saw a reindeer lying on its neck. Zhenya held the thick horn in his hand and turned its head from side to side. It was impossible to distinguish Zhenya''s size from the reindeer''s size. Just like when he caught a big fish, a strange joy covered his whole body. It took a while for Kwon Taek Joo to realize his hand was tingling from the recoil of the rifle. Zhenya quickly pulled out a sharp knife from the sheath wrapped around his leg. With that, the guy who was preparing to completely block the reindeer''s breathing stopped for a moment. Zhenya then quietly looked up at Kwon Taek Joo. "What?" "Aren''t you going to do it yourself?" Zhenya happily held out a sharp blue knife. He spread both his shoulders wide with a triumphant expression as if he was giving in to something huge. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t want to cut raw meat and draw blood, even in punishment. While on missions, he would shoot guns and sometimes use knives when necessary, but it''s not something he enjoys. The feeling when the blade penetrates the flesh and cuts through the skin has never been pleasant. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head with a confused expression. sea??h th§× n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I''m not doing that." "There''s nothing to refuse, because you''re special." It''s not a refusal, it''s a rejection, this kid. Why is cutting an animal''s throat particularly lenient? "Alright. Let''s see.." Kwon Taek Joo frowned and took a step back. Zhenya shrugged and immediately plunged the blade into the reindeer''s neck. The reindeer trembled and quickly drooped down. When Kwon Taek Joo came closer to observe the dead reindeer. Zhenya, who was still sitting in front of it, suddenly grabbed his ankle. "Ah!" Right after screaming, Kwon Taek Joo''s body fell down. Luckily the grass was overgrown, otherwise he would have had a concussion. Zhenya supported Kwon Taek Joo''s back, easing the pain. He looked down at Kwon Taek Joo who was grumbling "Damn". Perhaps because of seeing blood, the pupils in Zhenya''s eyes shrank. He could see his crotch bulging with excitement. If it were any other time, Zhenya would have tried to undress Kwon Taek Joo immediately, but now he just silently bowed his head and parted his lips. A soft breath from Zhenya''s lips touched his skin. Kwon Taek Joo widened his eyes and looked at Zhenya, the space between his eyebrows furrowed and looked quite urgent. Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened his mouth, Zhenya eagerly inserted his tongue, causing the oral cavity to stiffen tensely with the exchange of temperature and breath. Everything is like a passionate exchange. The more they mix their tongues together, the more intense the warmer feeling becomes. The gentleness from before quickly turned into passion, as if both of them were caught up in an intense, uncontrollable emotion. The two bodies were entwined with each other as Kwon Taek Joo gradually lifted himself up. He gently pulled Zhenya''s lower lip as if he were clicking on it, then gently let go, then he opened his eyes and stared at Zhenya. Again. Incomprehensible pure desire in the monster''s eyes. He didn''t understand why he became its owner. Was there a reason or not? Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo remembered a question Zhenya asked him a long time ago. Even then, he had the same look in his eyes as now. "The reason I will stay here.." There were so many thoughts flooding his mind. But in the end there was nothing left. At this moment, Kwon Taek Joo had no time to think about his situation, the weight of Zhenya''s existence, the past had gone through, and the difficulties ahead. He only saw Zhenya. In Zhenya''s blue eyes, his unfamiliar face appeared. Kwon Taek Joo felt awkward and embarrassed then he raised his hand to cover Zhenya''s eyes. Thick eyelashes tickled his palm. "..depends on what you will do in the future." Kwon Taek Joo slowly lowered his head, his lips gently placed on Zhenya''s lips. Zhenya''s lips also slowly softened. There was a strong smell of blood. It''s alright, even though it''s not sweet, even though it''s not good, but the long winter is over and spring has come. If so, is it enough now? Chapter 64: Side story 1 Chapter 64 - Side story 15.1 Side Story In conversations between characters, Korean is marked with "", English is marked with ¡¸¡¹ and Russian is marked with [ ]. Las Vegas at night is more beautiful than during the day. As the sun sets, the sleeping city begins to awaken. Luxury hotels line the main street, flaunting their colorful lights and neon signs. Street lights, bridges, railings, signs, palm trees and giant screens, a colorful light party takes place wherever the eye can reach. Cars lined up on the street flashing their blinding headlights, and there were huge crowds of people pouring into the streets. Music is played everywhere. Colorful laser beams and streams of water from a giant fountain decorate the pitch-black sky. People line up to enjoy dinner, shop, and watch different shows while soaking up the dazzling spectacle at a classy restaurant or bar. No kaleidoscope could be more luxurious than that. There is a pinnacle place in that unreal world. A space where tens of millions of dollars evaporate like a mirage overnight. Casinos opened their mouths and swallowed the flow of customers. Some are constantly looking for a little profit, while others dream of the biggest jackpot of their lives. The bright lights and bustling tunes from hundreds of slot machines, the stinging cigarette smoke, the strong smell of alcohol in the air, the strict supervision of guards, the international language mingling throughout the tables and sounds. of sharp chips than any other noise. The flood of stimulation quickly numbs the five senses and dull reason. Gradually, the people here will lose control and become immersed in the game. The casino side has taken full advantage of human psychology. The clock and windows are simplified to reduce the feeling of reality, and the table arrangement is also carefully considered, the higher the stake the deeper inside. At the high-priced tables, the dealers are skilled, and most of the players are regular customers. The casino also offers suitable services to steadily attract them. Every time you visit the restaurant, Pit Boss, the person in charge of sales, comes out to greet each customer and mix drinks according to each person''s taste. As large amounts of money come and go, monitoring becomes stricter. These make it more difficult to penetrate than any other active location. Kwon T aek Joo is shuffling cards on the table. He wears the name tag ''Philip'' on his chest, a 10-year veteran dealer and Chinese-American. Because he wore a special disguise, his appearance was not much different from him. That was so he could naturally approach the target with a lot of vigilance. At the table he is in charge of, ''Blackjack'' is going on in full swing. ''Blackjack'' is a simple card game and incredibly complex. The basic rule is that the dealer and players draw cards at random and the person whose total is closest to 21 wins. However, if your total number of cards exceeds 21 and becomes a ''Boom'' (quack), you will lose regardless of your opponent''s hand. 1None of the four sitting customers were ''squeaked''. The total of the cards changes from 13 to 19. Now it''s the dealer''s turn, it''s Kwon T aek Joo''s turn to open the cards. The song that was revealed in advance was ''3''. The number is small, so the possibility of ''snapping'' is very high. This is because only the dealer must continue to receive more cards until the total number of cards exceeds 17. Players pay attention to the face-down cards with worried eyes. ¡¸Turn the cards over¡¹ The remaining card is turned over. A strange sigh came from the player when the number ''7'' appeared. If the card about to be added is ''A'', then the blackjack will be completed and the dealer will collect all bets. Even if a ''10'' card or a card with a letter like ''J'', ''Q'' or ''K'' appears, the sum of the cards is 20 and the dealer wins. ''Blackjack'' is usually a 1:1 game between the dealer and each player. However, everyone sitting at the table unanimously hoped that a number of buttons less than ''6'' would be drawn. Kwon T aek Joo according to the rules draws one more card. The card is revealed immediately and placed next to the existing cards. That''s card ''5''. Still have to take one more card because the total is less than 16. The player now clenches his fist and mutters whispers as if reciting a spell, staring at Kwon T aek Joo''s hand. Draw another card. The card''s tension reaches its maximum until it is turned over and placed down. :Please: , as if to break the expectations of a player who spoke up, ''Card 6 appears. 3, 7, 5, 6. As a joke, a total of 21. ¡¸Blackjack ¡¹ Declaring another victory, Kwon T aek Joo collected all the chips on the table. The collapsed players gritted their teeth helplessly. ¡¸Asians are very difficult after all.¡¹ They both smoked and openly complained. They are not social, and even if they die early, they will still try to win. Kwon T aek Joo has heard that complaint for three days now. There is a common misconception that people who visit casinos have. If you get acquainted with the dealer, he will help you a little, and if you win the psychological battle, the hand will turn in your favor. But unfortunately, all card games are completely based on luck. As the number of repetitions increases, the consecutive win rate decreases. Being close to the dealer really doesn''t change anything. Players who blew a lot of money left one by one. An older man who guarded the table until the end lost the remaining chips. He said he owned a large shipping company and always gave generous tips. :Phillip, it seems you are actually winning right now, but you have to lose often to achieve your long-term goal. If you keep winning, who else will sit at your table?: (In English) Hm.. it really doesn''t depend on Kwon T aek Joo. He wanted to refute, but he restrained himself and nodded. 2¡¸I will remember. Please come back next time.¡¹ The man laughed loudly. ¡¸You told me to come back after wiping everything away like that.¡¹ Even saying that, he will probably visit Kwon T aek Joo''s table again tomorrow. People with greedy minds must win to be satisfied. After the man left, the table was empty. It''s time to show up. ¡¸Are you alone again? Did you finally win today?¡¹ Kwon T aek Joo was cleaning up his seat for a while when he heard the voice he was waiting for. He looked up, a middle-aged woman was grinning. ¡¸You should play with me too.¡¹ she said and sat down on the middle chair. Her name is Kiara Chang. She said she is doing fashion-related business in Italy. She was born in China, but mostly lives in Italy. While playing cards, she said she married a local husband 10 years ago, and they had no children, thus the sad story of the estrangement between the couple arose. It''s all a lie. Kiara Chang''s nationality is North Korea, not Chinese. Her real name is Choi Yeon Hwa, and she was in charge of North Korea''s European funds while living in Italy for nearly 20 years. It would be impossible without the trust of the party leadership because the size of the slush fund she alone manages is several trillion won. However, like other North Korean elites, she appears to have undergone a gradual ideological change. As her knowledge and thinking expanded through her long life abroad, she became skeptical of the North Korean system, which had been deadlocked for decades. Later, when a large-scale hereditary purge of the leaders was carried out, and her relatives and colleagues who followed the party were killed, she decided to ask for help. refugee. Italy, which is discussing and cooperating with South Korea and the United States on this issue, did not provide any information about Choi Yeon Hwa immediately after her deportation. It''s for her safety. This was a few years ago, not long after NIS started monitoring Choi Yeon Hwa. Recently, intelligence information obtained shows that a social group with close ties to domestic political forces has created a large amount of slush funds and transferred them to North Korea. According to intelligence information, this money was laundered in many European countries and transferred to North Korea, so Choi Yeon Hwa must have known about the situation. If it was simply the purchase of support funds from a pro-North Korea group, or if the price was paid in advance to gain some advantage in the political world, then it is necessary to find out in detail who is involved in the matter. Who are they and what is their purpose? North Korea also aggressively hunted for Choi Yeon Hwa. Not just because of the trillions of won she swindled while in hiding, but because if she told everything, everything from the secret accounts hidden throughout Europe to the fundraising methods, The origin and methods of money laundering will be exposed. As part of 3sanctions on North Korea, if secret accounts are tied up, the North Korean government will have no way to raise dollars. Did she have a premonition that she would be chased for the rest of her life? Choi Yeon Hwa underwent a full body plastic surgery right after being wanted. With the active support of the Italian government, her status was also completely changed to ''Kiara Chang''. It''s not a lie that she married a local. I just don''t know if that marriage is a limited relationship on paper or a real relationship. Choi Yeon Hwa, who ended her long secluded life in Italy, recently started visiting casinos in Las Vegas. Is she trying to play the role of ''Kiara Chang'', a successful businesswoman who is bored with married life? Or maybe she wants to let go of her true self in a place where everyone loses themselves. One thing to note in this activity is that there must be no physical conflicts. Choi Yeon Hwa is now Italian, so diplomatic friction must be minimized. If the fact that she is in contact with South Korea is discovered, the North Koreans will be even crazier to eliminate her. You can''t alarm an important source. Kwon T aek Joo tried to find a way to approach her as naturally as possible. The problem is that Choi Yeon Hwa''s wariness towards strangers is very high. The plainclothes bodyguards she hired were pretending to be customers, hiding as quietly and neatly as possible throughout the casino. This is why Kwon T aek Joo disguised himself as a dealer. T o dispel Choi Yeon Hwa''s suspicions, it seemed more effective to let her approach first instead of hastily approaching. So, four days ago, he disguised himself as ''Philip'', a dealer at the biggest casino in Las Vegas, and waited for her. Due to the nature of the work, supervision is very strict and cannot be neglected even for a moment. Even when the target doesn''t appear, Kwon T aek Joo still has to exhaust himself to deal with other guests. He wondered if there had ever been an activity that made him so mentally tired. Choi Yeon Hwa comes down to the lobby around 2 a.m. every day and enjoys the game. Kwon T aek Joo didn''t try to be polite, and he didn''t even risk starting a conversation. But she seemed interested. ¡¸Did you want to lose today?¡¹ "Good luck" She pouted at his industrial answer. ¡¸I will shuffle¡¹he said and shuffled the cards. Shuffling is the rule at big tables. It is a measure to prevent suspicions of card manipulation by machines. For that reason, Kwon T aek Joo put all his effort into practicing, staying up all night to learn how to handle and follow ''Philip''s'' habits. Soon, the waitress approached. ¡¸Do you want something to drink?¡¹ ¡¸No, I''m fine.¡¹ 4Choi Yeon Hwa refused all services provided by the casino. It seemed that caution was ingrained in her. In case something was suspicious, she didn''t even utter a word. ¡¸Is this also a casino business secret? Are you going to make me bet money on alcohol?¡¹ ¡¸Impossible. It''s a special service only for VIPs. If you don''t like alcohol, we have water and soft drinks.¡¹ ¡¸Thank you for your concern, but I already have water.¡¹ ¡¸I see¡¹Kwon T aek Joo said and put down the cards one by one. Choi Yeon Hwa silently shrugged her shoulders in sarcasm. The way she touched the chips was somewhat strange. ¡¸But drinking with Philip is another matter.¡¹ ¡¸I''m not allowed to drink alcohol while working.¡¹ ¡¸It''s not necessary to drink it right now.¡¹ The saying is full of meaning. When their eyes met, she smiled and softly closed her eyes. Is she seducing Kwon T aek Joo? He was a bit surprised because the atmosphere was nothing special. ¡¸What''s wrong? Don''t you like it?¡¹ ¡¸This is the first time a customer invited me to drink alcohol.¡¹ ¡¸Lie¡¹ ¡¸Aren''t you going to bet anymore? I will turn over the cards.¡¹ ¡¸You are like stone.¡¹ Choi Yeon Hwa grumbled openly. She had no companions, and guests asked for her own room, but even when eating, she was always alone. She could have found a man to be with if she wanted but she didn''t. Kwon T eak Joo wondered why she suddenly expressed such an attitude. Since learning that ''Philip'' is Chinese-American, she has always shown friendly feelings. Of course, he thought even that was just part of acting. Or, if Choi Yeon Hwa was honest, he had no reason to refuse. Because he didn''t bother waiting for her here anymore. Furthermore, there aren''t many disadvantages to approaching the target that way. All Kwon T aek Joo has to do is create just the right atmosphere, then use confession triggers to extract the necessary information. He''s just not sure yet. Kwon T aek Joo needs to be careful. The total number of buttons on the cards that Choi Yeon Hwa received is 17. The card placed in front of Kwon T aek Joo is the ''9'' card. The card facing down next to it has been turned over. When ''A'' appeared, Choi Yeon Hwa''s shoulders sank. ¡¸Oh, I lost. Didn''t the beauty''s plan succeed?¡¹ ¡¸Because blackjack is not a psychological battle.¡¹ ¡¸Aren''t you gay?¡¹ ¡¸Does it look like that?¡¹ 5She smiled and picked up the chips. Choi Yeon Hwa said, :Wow: and suddenly tilted her upper body forward. She began to examine each piece of Kwon T aek Joo''s face. There was no way advanced camouflage techniques could be seen through, but he couldn''t help but feel nervous under that gaze. ¡¸Looking at this, I don''t know if he''s gay or not, but he seems gentle. I like a man who listens and understands.¡¹ ¡¸You can''t be sure just looking from the outside.¡¹ Someone suddenly interrupted the conversation between two people. Choi Yeon Hwa turned her head with a confused expression. For a moment, Kwon T aek Joo''s eyes flinched, because the voice that reached his ears was too familiar. A unique body odor that he hadn''t noticed until now because he was too focused on Choi Yeon Hwa. He raised his eyes hopefully. Zhenya was slowly walking closer to the table. Why is he here? His cheeks stiffened in shock. ¡¸What do you mean by gentle? He''s perfect for a Chippendale show.¡¹ Zhenya looked Kwon T aek Joo up and down and added. Choi Yeon Hwa considered it a mischievous joke and laughed reluctantly. The guy who attracts attention because of his height of over 2 meters and his unnecessarily dashing appearance is dressed a bit colorfully today. His appearance reminds people of a white peacock, causing people around her to glance at him. Of course, unwanted attention focused on Kwon T aek Joo''s table. Without hesitation, Zhenya sat down next to Choi Yeon Hwa. :Can I sit here?: :Well, I didn''t rent that seat either.: Choi Yeon Hwa nodded without reservation. Zhenya also squirmed strangely towards Kwon T aek Joo. He seemed to see that his awkwardness was completely because he was surprised. Without a doubt, ''Chippendale Show'' is one of the attractions that represents Las Vegas, and it is a show where male strippers with beautiful bodies will perform various performances for female audiences. The problem is that ''Philip'' has an extremely normal body. T elling a woman she would look good if she were to strip is more likely to be considered sexual harassment than a compliment. Is it different for men? :You better be careful. He will not lose.: Responding to Choi Yeon Hwa''s advice, Zhenya nodded indifferently and stared at Kwon T aek Joo. The two of them made eye contact again. He wanted to ask why someone who shouldn''t be in Korea appeared here, but now was not the time. Kwon T aek Joo had to regain composure. :Winning so easily is no fun. I can''t wait to see how scary he is.: Zhenya laughed provocatively. Kwon T aek Joo tried his best to keep a cold expression while feeling the artificial skin covering his face being pulled away. 6Phillip? Bad name. (Zhenya''s thought I''m guessing) He continued to debate in his mind whether this kid was really planning on ruining everything or not. Kwon T eak Joo shuffled the cards, ignoring Zhenya. :China or Japan? Or.. Are you Korean?: Zhenya asked meaningfully. Kwon T aek Joo stopped for a moment and stared at him. Zhenya muttered with a shameless face. Choi Yeon Hwa looked at the two people in a strange fight in turn and shrugged. :Hmm. Do they all look the same to Westerners? They think that all Asians are Chinese.: :Really? I Don''t know why but he looks like a Korean I know.: (Zhenya hahah) Kwon T aek Joo''s strength is concentrated at both ends of his jaw. Zhenya just raised his eyebrows as if he hadn''t done anything wrong. When ''Philip'' looked agitated, Choi Yeon Hwa burst out laughing. :Many people often see it wrong.: As if listening to Kwon T aek Joo''s voice, she even gave advice to Zhenya. :However, it is rude to say that Chinese people are Japanese or Korean. There are many people who feel offended by the long and intertwined history.: :I have to remember this. I behaved inappropriately.: It was casual teasing. If possible, he wanted to immediately grab Zhenya''s collar. After settling in Korea, he often appeared at the places where Kwon T aek Joo worked. He even told Zhenya not to follow him because his status could lead to diplomatic friction that was useless. He is always present and interrupts Kwon T aek Joo''s activities. No, if only in terms of results, Zhenya always targets Kwon T aek Joo. However, Kwon T aek Joo was not sure whether he really helped him or not. He sometimes suddenly interrupts the crowd like now. Zhenya always walks around the scene as he pleases. He probably doesn''t know that he always stands out wherever he goes with his special appearance and physical condition. Zhenya never disguises himself like Kwon T aek Joo, it''s like advertising to let everyone around him know who he is. In fact, ever since the guy appeared, Choi Yeon Hwa has felt him. Kwon T aek Joo knows that Zhenya is always watching him. He warned him not to do that and tried to set up a separate work account but to no avail. Zhenya comes like a ghost wherever Kwon T aek Joo is active. He suspected that Zhenya might have installed a listening or tracking device somewhere on his body. That''s why he feels even more awkward and worried if he doesn''t appear right now. Because he didn''t know where Zhenya was and what was happening to him. 7Of course so far there have been no major problems. But he couldn''t help but worry, because every time Zhenya got involved, he always had to pay a pretty hefty price for him. The worry in Kwon T aek Joo''s heart resounded again. He was awakened by the sound of tapping on the table. When he realized, Choi Yeon Hwa and Zhenya were staring at Kwon T aek Joo. :Shouldn''t you deal the cards?: :Ah, sorry.: He hurriedly shuffled the cards. While moving his hands out of habit, Kwon T aek Joo thought over and over how to overcome this difficulty. His head was pounding. :Player Cards.: He placed a card in front of Choi Yeon Hwa and Zhenya. Card ''8'' and card ''Q'' are drawn one after another. He placed a card in front of him. :The cards are for the dealer.: The first card is ''A''. Choi Yeon Hwa lamented and said :Look: If the dealer''s open card is ''A'', the player is at a significant disadvantage and is asked if they have purchased some form of insurance. With insurance, even if you lose, you only pay half of your bet. Instead, if the player wins, they will receive 1.5x back. Choi Yeon Hwa and Zhenya shook their heads in unison. Kwon T aek Joo handed out the cards one by one. Choi Yeon Hwa''s card is ''9'' and Zhenya''s card is ''A''. Blackjack was completed immediately. :Wow? Is that real?: Choi Yeon Hwa couldn''t help but be surprised. Of course, it won''t end there. If the dealer, Kwon T aek Joo, also hits blackjack, they will not be able to receive the money due to the tie. T o prepare for this case, Zhenya can get back 1x of the pre-stake amount. :Do you want your money back?: Zhenya shook his head again. Just like usual, even when gambling, Zhenya was still very reckless. Kwon T aek Joo''s face down card was turned over immediately. It''s a ''6''. Zhenya wins. Winner, winner chicken dinner. After declaring Zhenya''s victory, Kwon T aek Joo took a chip from the bank and gave it to him. The corner of Zhenya''s mouth curled up. Sometimes he won, sometimes he lost, but for some reason his stomach turned. Kwon T aek Joo shuffles the cards and starts a new game. Both of Zhenya''s cards are ''9''s. Kwon T aek Joo''s face card is ''Q''. At this time, the dealer must check the remaining cards with the reader and notify the player whether they have achieved blackjack or not. :No blackjack: Zhenya tapped his index and middle fingers on the table to signal ''split''. because his fingers are long, the hand gesture is especially elegant, to the point that Kwon T aek Joo unconsciously stares blankly. 8:I hesitate.: Choi Yeon Hwa''s announcement of giving up suddenly brought Kwon T aek Joo back to his senses. Once again faithful to his duty as a dealer, he split Zhenya''s ''9'' card in half and gave one more card. When the ''A'' card and the ''3'' card are dealt, the total is 20, 12. Zhenya gets 12 buttons in total. With the addition of the ''7'', the combination of cards S~ea??h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. created a total of 19. Choi Yeon Hwa, who was watching, exclaimed, :Oh my gosh.: Kwon T aek Joo and Zhenya''s eyes met. He quietly narrowed his eyes and observed Kwon T aek Joo''s expression. Zhenya''s eyes were full of mockery. T o be honest, the bet amount was not Kwon T aek Joo''s personal money and it didn''t matter how much he lost, but clearly, the anger was a lot. :Do you want to bet more?: :So boring. We have to do something to have more fun, right?: Zhenya slyly stacked the chips in his hand. At least $100,000 each. Choi Yeon Hwa watched the betting guy with interest. The face down card is turned over. A ''6'' card is drawn. Since the total of the cards is only 16, Zhenya draws one more card. An ''8'' card is drawn and the sum of the three cards exceeds 21. :Oh, is that so?: Zhenya smirked. Is it useless to feel like the taunt was aimed at Kwon T aek Joo. :It''s not fun because I keep winning.: Kwon T aek Joo was angry at the provocation but he did not show it. He exhausted his patience to the maximum. Zhenya clearly knew Kwon T aek Joo''s feelings and continued to move forward. A few more games were played, and Zhenya showed no signs of leaving. More and more chips piled up in front of him. Zhenha won 6 or 7 games out of 10 bets. The manager comes and observed the games. This is because cheating often takes place or casino robbery occurs due to collusion between players or between players and dealers. Kwon T aek Joo''s mentality became even heavier. It was a game that depended on probability, but he had continuously lost to him. How can Zhenya continuously win without cheating? Or was he born that lucky? Zhenya''s consecutive victories once again attracted public attention. Even Choi Yeon Hwa took her hands off the card game and watched him. Every time they communicated with each other with their eyes, Kwon T aek Joo winked fiercely and told him to go away, but he acted as if he didn''t know anything. He even nodded towards the door, but Zhenya pretended not to know and just raised his eyebrows innocently. :Oh, Philip. Damned, I have met the right opponent.: :No, I was worried but you didn''t realize it.: Kwon T aek Joo straightened his stiff face and grinned. Zhenya smiled sarcastically. :But you can''t openly show that you''re not happy for the guests.: 9:Oh. I''m just a little tired.: The corner of Kwon T aek Joo''s mouth pulled out with difficulty, feeling like he was about to spasm. Zhenya rolled a chip between his long fingers and whispered lazily. :If you''re tired, rest a bit. I have a reservation.: Either way, it doesn''t sound like a joke. However, Choi Yeon Hwa thought it was just a joke and said, :What? Are you really going to rest?: She laughed. Kwon T aek Joo felt like his blood boiled for a moment. Kwon T aek Joo is once again confused. The sum of the two cards Zhenya received is 14. A rather ambiguous hand to discard or play and receive a new card. On the other hand, Kwon T aek Joo''s card is ''A''. Zhenya makes a bold shot without insurance. Another card is dealt. A ''6'' was added to complete 20. Immediately, Zhenya pushed all his chips in front of Kwon T aek Joo. Even the onlookers around him were agitated by the sudden all-in. A crazy man suddenly appeared from somewhere. Does he know how much it costs? Kwon T aek Joo has never worried about Zhenya''s wallet, but he also never thought he would throw money on the street like this. Choi Yeon Hwa also expressed concern. :Are you okay?: :I''m not in the mood to eat little by little.: ( he''s saying that he doesn''t feel like playing a little. Something like that.) Everyone watching looked nervous as if they had bet their own money, but it was Zhenya alone. Zhenya threw Kwon T aek Joo a meaningful look. He sighed softly and continued playing cards. :Check the face down card.: Kwon T aek Joo turned the card face up. For a moment, the surrounding noise seemed to stop. Everyone held their breath and just looked at Kwon T aek Joo''s hand. Card 8 is turned over. Zhenya wins. It was an unbelievable result even though Kwon T aek Joo himself was in charge. Cheers and applause rang out all around. :You''re really good. I just keep losing. Do you have any tricks?: Choi Yeon Hwa was excited as if she had won. Zhenya leaned back deeply in his chair and stared at Kwon T aek Joo''s stunned face. Then he naturally turned to look into Choi Yeon Hwa''s eyes. :Shall I teach you?: The tone was gentle. Kwon T aek Joo''s hand that was pulling out the chip suddenly stopped. Choi Yeon Hwa shows deep curiosity. :Is there really a way?: :Maybe. Maybe not.: :What is it?: :Why don''t you try checking for yourself? I can''t tell you myself.: Once again, the half-hearted statement left room for flirtation with slightly narrowed eyes. 10What is this kid saying? Perhaps because of the light, the long eyelashes seem to sparkle strangely. Kwon T aek Joo''s stomach boiled. Choi Yeon Hwa just looked at Zhenya with puzzled eyes at the unexpected suggestion. Immediately after, her smile deepened. (Not Zhenya ''cheating'' on Kwon T aek Joo when their not even dating) :So shall we go drink together? I have no companion.: :Okay.: Zhebya happily nodded. Choi Yeon Hwa immediately packed her clothes and bags. When Zhenya stood up from his seat and met Kwon T aek Joo''s eyes, he greeted without hesitation. :See you next time, Philip.: He didn''t know what to do with this unexpected situation. Zhenya threw back a chip, saying it was a tip. When he received it, it turned out to be $500,000. The man smiled at the speechless Kwon T aek Joo and then escorted Choi Yeon Hwa out of the casino. He was dumbfounded as he watched the two of them walk away. How long has it been? Someone knocked on the table. Meanwhile, other guests occupied the empty chairs and sat down. *Aren''t you dealing cards?* *Oh yes. Sorry* Kwon T aek Joo awkwardly shuffled the cards mechanically. The manager who was watching from behind squeezed Kwon T aek Joo''s shoulder and then stepped back. He shook his head to clear his mind. Right now Kwon T aek Joo must focus on ''Philip''s'' work. But even after pushing himself like that, all he could think about was Zhenya and Choi Yeon Hwa. He didn''t understand what the hell Zhenya was doing. He was just, vaguely, very worried. Damn, there''s still an hour left until the shift ends. Chapter 65 - 5.2 Side Story Chapter 65 - 5.2 Side StoryFinally, it''s time to change shifts. Kwon Teak Joo quickly changed clothes. ''Philip'' and his close friends cracked jokes, but he couldn''t hang out like other times. He refused the invitation to go out for a drink and hurriedly left the dressing room. At that moment, Annie, the concierge, came to visit. She gave Kwon Taek Joo an envelope of unknown origin and said that it was an item delivered to ''Philip'' by a certain customer. It was an envelope with the logo of a famous hotel nearby. Inside there is a card that is said to be the room key. Obviously from Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo left behind his colleagues who were teasing him about whether he was going to meet his lover and went to the employee parking lot. Kwon Taek Joo drove an older SUV to a safe place. It''s a large mechanical car wash. He casually parked the SUV and went to the bathroom. When he reappeared, he had completely transformed from ''Philip'' to Kwon Taek Joo. He went to the parking lot opposite and got into a brand new sedan. Kwon Taek Joo immediately started the car and drove out, the destination was a luxury hotel with a logo printed on the envelope. That hotel is located in a prime location of Las Vegas. Here you can enjoy panoramic views of Las Vegas from anywhere in the 3,000 guest rooms. Just like that, cars and people came in and out continuously. Kwon Taek Joo was also a part there, he left the valet parking and went inside. When he arrived at the elevator reserved for guest rooms, the receptionist asked Kwon Taek Joo for the key card key. He obediently handed over the card key that had been given to him before. The employee then asked to wait a moment and called another employee. The new employee who appeared soon greeted him warmly and then led Kwon Taek Joo to the other side. The place he arrived at was in front of a separate elevator. It seemed that only that side was particularly quiet, and it was reserved for the VIP room only. When Kwon Taek Joo entered the elevator and inserted the key card, the light on the top floor button turned on. When he got there and looked out, there were only a few doors in the hallway. The room Kwon Taek Joo entered was likely 150 pyeong. It appears to be the Presidential Suite, which is said to cost between 30 and 40 million won per night. Three bedrooms, four bathrooms, spacious living room, private bar, terrace with comfortable sofa bed and private swimming pool. The interior in the old Persian style disturbs the view. Kwon Taek Joo looked at its scale and splendor and couldn''t help but sigh. The employee said to call them anytime if you needed anything and then quietly withdrew. Kwon Taek Joo glanced around and walked inside immediately without looking closely around the guest room. He chose a bottle of whiskey and a glass and sat down on the sofa in the living room. The seat cushions were gently turned to support his tired body in the most comfortable way. As soon as the glass was filled, it emptied in one go. The feeling of a full stomach immediately disappeared. But after just a little bit of comfort, complicated things appeared in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind. He poured and then drank the whiskey in the glass, his eyes always directed towards the door. Truly, there wasn''t a day that went by that he wasn''t seething over Zhenya. Even if he asked him not to interfere in work matters, Zhenya wouldn''t listen. If so, please let me know in advance. But that kid always surprises Kwon Taek Joo every time and everywhere. He didn''t know if Zhenya was trying to help or if he was trying to get in the way. That guy is a diplomat, but not careful at all. You won''t be able to forget that face once you see it, but Kwon Taek Joo has never seen him in disguise. It seemed that in Zhenya''s mind, there were no international problems that could arise for himself. Knowing that he was also very reckless in Russia, why should Kwon Taek Joo himself be more restless? Even ten fingers cannot count all the troubles from Zhenya. Were you working in Dubai at that time? Kwon Taek Joo tries to stay home as much as possible during holidays or his mother''s birthday, but at that time there is an emergency at headquarters and there is nothing he can do. At that time, Zhenya visited the house while Kwon Taek Joo was away. After that, he brought his mother''s homemade rice cake soup to Dubai. Have you heard that Koreans have to eat rice cake soup on the first day of the new year? I don''t understand how his mother and that boy can understand and talk to each other, while both speak in their native language. Because of the long flight, all the water in the soup leaked out. Just looking at it made me feel choked up, so Kwon Taek Joo refused and said he didn''t need to eat, but it was S~ea??h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. useless. Zhenya immediately threatened Kwon Taek Joo, saying that if he ignored his sincerity, then his sincerity towards his target, him, would be in vain. And since the target had fallen into his hands, Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to swallow the tteokguk that was as dry as a desert. Is that all? There was a time when Kwon Taek Joo had difficulty because he was Zhenya''s date. That''s when he took action in Iran, a traditional ally of North Korea. The two countries illegally traded weapons and supported the development of nuclear programs under the pretext of ''scientific and technical cooperation'' from a very early age. However, US intelligence agencies determined that exchanges between the two countries gradually decreased from 2013 onwards. But intelligence obtained from a UN member state directly contradicts that analysis. Until recently, the two countries actively traded arms and technology. Kwon Taek Joo also heard that a North Korean trading company called ''Cheongwoon'' in Tehran was relaying this. It was even discovered that parts related to ballistic missiles were transported through Air Koryo and Iran Air, the national airlines of both countries. To get clearer and more detailed information, Kwon Taek Joo approached the commander of the Iranian army. However, Zhenya appeared right at that place. Because the target recognized him a long time ago, even Kwon Taek Joo had to greet them. Zhenya blatantly introduced Kwon Taek Joo as his lover. When both the subject and Kwon Taek Joo were shocked, Zhenya corrected Kwon Taek Joo as his subordinate, saying it was just a joke. Because from the looks of it, Kwon Taek Joo was affiliated with the Russian embassy, so there was no doubt about the target. The risky campaign at that time was easily completed thanks to Russia and Iran having a common enemy, the United States, and the long-term cooperation between the two countries in the fields of security and economics. Of course, only physical suffering is reduced, but mental suffering is several times more than normal. Zhenya always interfered like that, ruining all of Kwon T aek Joo''s plans and very actively boasting that the mission was completed entirely thanks to him. In exchange, Kwon Taek Joo was taken to Ajinoki Island and forced to go on vacation many times. Because he always stopped by Russia after completing a mission, one time Chief Kwak asked about matters related to Zhenya. Manager Kwak also could not easily understand Kwon Taek Joo''s explanation. If it were Kwon T aek Joo and it were him, I probably wouldn''t be able to understand. He was very upset every time Zhenya came to his house to see his mother. Because it''s his nature to not care about what should and shouldn''t be said. One day, his mother felt uncomfortable communicating with Zhenya. She heard that there was a translation software and asked how to use it. Kwon Taek Joo was in a cold sweat. He said that Russian translation is not common, and even when there is translation software, mistranslations are common. His mother was very sorry but still obediently believed her son''s words. But Kwon Taek Joo also doesn''t know when that lie will be exposed. Suppose his mother tried to translate Zhenya''s words through translation software... Just imagining it made my head spin. Every day that passes is like walking on a tightrope. Looking back on the past journey, Kwon Taek Joo sighed. How did you get involved with such a troublesome guy? It was Kwon Taek Joo who was determined to tame Zhenya rather than continue running away from him. However it was more difficult than expected. Even though they''ve been together for a year, he still doesn''t know Zhenya''s whereabouts. Even when they were together all day, Kwon Taek Joo didn''t know what he was thinking. *..Anyway...where is this bastard and what is he doing?* He glared dissatisfied at the silent door again. It''s time for Zhenya to come back. Two hours after leaving the casino with Choi Yeon Hwa there was still no text from Zhenya. Did something happen? Since Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t know what he''s planning to do, it''s hard to guess what he''s doing right now. The two of them went out drinking together, but he wondered if that was all. (Definitely not just drinking. If you know what I mean, it stated ''that'' in the beginning about his need for sex.) Or roll around in bed again? Of course that is not surprising. Zhenya''s lower body is inherently promiscuous, and when it comes to women, he doesn''t care about age, nationality, or style. On the contrary, Choi Yeon Hwa is what Kwon Taek Joo needs to worry about. (Hahha! He doesn''t care about Zhenya but he worries for Choi Yeon Hwa. Haha, gosh I love Kwon Taek Joo.) He tapped his watch, the ticking second hand made him more nervous. Finally Kwon Taek Joo stood up from his chair with a sigh and strode towards the door. He wasn''t wearing camouflage or had any plans in mind, but he had to find Zhenya quickly. That was the moment he was about to grab the door handle, when suddenly the lock was unlocked and the door opened from the outside. The person who appeared in front of the hesitant Kwon Taek Joo was none other than Zhenya. He slowly observed Kwon Taek Joo, who had a serious expression, from face to toe. Chapter 66 - 5.3 Side Story Chapter 66 - 5.3 Side StoryIn conversations between characters, Korean is marked with "", English is marked with ¡¸¡¹ and Russian is marked with [ ]. [Where did you go?] [I saw it. You went out with that girl. What have you two been doing up until now?] Zhenya spoke meaningfully. Kwon Taek Joo was uncomfortable but he tried to calm down and then stared at Zhenya uncomfortably. The guy leisurely walked past Kwon Taek Joo and then sat on the sofa, pouring whiskey from the bottle that Kwon Taek Joo had already drunk nearly half of into a glass. He didn''t immediately drink the rich amber liquid but shook it in the glass. [Why Choi Yeon Hwa, why did you do that?] [What''s wrong? Do you think I will kill her?] Zhenya blinked and then slowly looked up. He even laughed at Kwon Taek Joo, who was extremely confused. [You''re not that inflexible.] [How about not?] [Kwon Taek Joo, what are you really planning to do to seduce that woman? Are you really planning to use a handsome man?] [Who used the handsome guy?] It''s beyond words. Zhenya rushed in to disrupt the group of subjects he had been diligently following for many days. The guy who had been listening silently suddenly smiled, it seemed like Kwon Taek Joo''s answer made him very satisfied. [Ah, so you were planning on chasing me? Are you afraid that she and I will have fun together?] [No. Because I don''t know what you will do with her. If you kill her, it will become troublesome.] [It seems like you already said that. I won''t attack unless someone else touches me first.] Kwon Taek Joo gasped and was speechless. It''s true he said that. Zhenya didn''t mind, he tilted his chin to the seat next to him, folded his arms and said [It seems like you don''t need this?] In his hand was a small microchip. [What''s that?] [Information on North Korea''s loan account in Europe. And the source of funds deposited into each account, etc?] Zhenya always easily gets what he wants. Always the same. Therefore, Kwon Taek Joo kept feeling uncomfortable because he felt like he was losing. He stared at Zhenya with a disapproving expression and then reluctantly approached. Kwon Taek Joo reached for the chip, but Zhenya suddenly retracted his hand. [Did you think I would waste so much time just to get this?] [Unlike some others, he cannot expose his face in all directions. I don''t have anyone to back me like you do.] (He''s saying how he doesn''t like to show his face while on missions, unlike ''someone'') Kwon Taek Joo gritted his teeth and made a sarcastic comment. Zhenya looked at him and quietly straightened his shoulders, his expression also seemed to become more arrogant. It''s obvious that this bastard has no learning ability. [That''s not a compliment, kid. Shouldn''t you know that by now?] [You''re still so shy, Kwon Teak Joo.] [..Haa.. It''s because of you that I''m embarrassed on your behalf, really.] [I didn''t expect you to think so much about my dignity.] His head was pounding. This was something that often happened when he talked to Zhenya. Compared to continuing the dialogue, it''s better to give up. Kwon Taek Joo took a deep breath and held out his hand. [What are you talking about? Quickly give me that.] However, Zhenya did not introduce the microchip lightly. He just turned it around as if to show off. [Taek Joo, I never said I would give this to you.] [What? You don''t need it anyway.] [That''s true, but now that it''s in your hands, it''s up to you to use anyway.] It must have been quite a hefty price. A terrifying sigh came out. [Is there gold on that thing of yours? As if he can give up a lot to be satisfied.] [Ah? Is it because of that that you have been sulking all this time?] [Who.!] [You''re so naive. That woman stole 400 billion from the dictators'' slush fund. She would die if caught, but she still had the audacity to do so. Could such a woman be so loose as to let her guard down with a dealer she had only met for a few days? If you hadn''t intervened, I would be dismembered in her bed right now. Who sent him, what is the purpose of approaching, she will try to use her body to ask for the truth. A woman only has money, but that doesn''t mean she can''t use beauty tricks.] When Choi Yeon Hwa suddenly seduced ''Philip'', Kwon Taek Joo became suspicious. Everyone''s preferences are different, but ''Philip'' is not a very sexually attractive man. Choi Yeon Hwa said she likes a gentle man. The problem was that he didn''t know if it was real, because he hadn''t shown anything like that before. After all, had she always been suspicious of ''Philip''? Kwon Taek Joo did not know that she had planned a private meeting with the purpose of confirming his identity. While he was organizing his thoughts, Zhenya added. [If it were you, it would be a different story.] [What do you mean?] [Now seems like the right time to unleash my beauty plan.] He frowned at the ominous omen. Zhenya seemed to enjoy Kwon Taek Joo''s reaction and smiled slightly as he took a sip of whiskey. Just then, Zhenya took something from a nearby drawer and threw it at Kwon Taek Joo. It''s a small shopping bag. Part of the inside protrudes from an overturned shopping bag. At first glance, it resembles a bow. [..What do you want me to do with this?] Kwon Taek Joo looked at Zhenya with suspicious eyes. The corner of his mouth drew a long arc. [Put it on.] ¡ª¡ª "Ha, this crazy guy.." Kwon Taek Joo sighed as he put on the clothes he received from Zhenya. No, it was absurd to call it "clothes". The black pants were completely tight on the lower body, with a zipper running along the crotch, and the shirt only had a bow and cuffs. Looking in the mirror, he soon believed he would be the exclusive performer of the Chippendale Show. If it''s like this, taking it all off will probably be less embarrassing. Kwon Taek Joo checked his face in the mirror and sighed as if the ground was about to collapse. The feeling of his pants rubbing against his bare skin was strange. Wearing a shirt like you''re not wearing it makes you feel like you can''t wait to show off your breasts. How did that bastard''s taste come to be like that? He was reluctantly looking at himself in the mirror when from outside, Zhenya urged him to come out. Kwon Taek Joo touched the mirror and then went out. Being embarrassed in this situation will only make Zhenya happy. He regained his composure before leaving the room and going to the living room. The guy lying on the sofa grinned when he saw Kwon Taek Joo. [Look. Is that suitable?] Zhenya''s body, which had been leaning completely backwards, now leaned forward. The cloak hanged loosely. He didn''t know if it''s because he just took a shower, but his skin became smoother and his ivory hair looked thicker because of the humidity. The eyes also became more transparent and rolled slowly and glanced at Kwon Taek Joo. His persistent gaze licked every corner of his body down to the invisible parts. Kwon Taek Joo has known this guy before, but not with such a perverted, beautiful face. [Come here.] After completing the overall feeling, Zhenya waved his hand. The arrogant attitude was annoying but Kwon Taek Joo had no other choice, he just bowed down dejectedly and walked forward. He came and stood in front of Zhenya. He reached out and grabbed the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s thighs. Long, slender fingers pressed firmly into his firm skin. The pants were pulled up and the genitals inside were also tightened. Kwon Taek Joo also unconsciously put strength into his stomach. Zhenya raised the corner of his mouth as if he also felt that slight change. Disagreeing with that attitude, Kwon Taek Joo took the initiative first. He placed his knee between Zhenya''s spread legs and used one hand to grab the back of the sofa Zhenya was leaning on. As the distance grew closer, Zhenya looked up at him with a satisfied expression. Kwon Taek Joo looked into Zhenya''s eyes and gently touched his ear and silently rubbed the entire ear as if massaging it. Zhenya breathed slowly, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly. Kwon Taek Joo suddenly felt a strange sense of sea??h th§× n?vel_Fire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. accomplishment when seeing Zhenya in such a happy and enjoying mood. It seemed like he had properly tamed someone who was no different from a wild animal. He lifted Zhenya''s chin who was looking at him passionately and kissed him. The corners of Zhenya''s mouth twitched. When he stuck out his tongue to lick his upper lip, Zhenya''s hands grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s round butt. He silently pursed his upper lip and let it go, then suddenly tilted his head and pushed his tongue in. As if he had been waiting, Zhenya pulled Kwon Taek Joo''s body back and bit his tongue. Persistent red tongue mixed with touch and sound. Thump, chug... Zhenya''s hand rubbed his butt and then gradually moved up his back, each place his fingertips touched seemed to have a light electric current running across it. Kwon Taek Joo''s back trembled. Zhenya smiled more earnestly. There was numbness between his legs as Zhenya''s hand groped his straight spine. Kwon Taek Joo held the hand that was tickling his back and held it tightly. The lips that were tightly attached to each other parted. Zhenya raised his head and kissed him again, he bit Kwon Taek Joo''s lower lip and stretched it out with his tongue. Even if he grabbed Zhenya''s shoulder to push him away, it would have no effect, Kwon Taek Joo responded for a moment and then turned his head. Zhenya licked his glossy lips with a delicious expression. [It''s a pity to watch striptease alone.] [Weird thing. If not me, who would want to see this?] [Self-esteem is lower than expected. Or do you pretend not to know?] Zhenya smiled and pulled Kwon Taek Joo a little more. Then while caressing his shoulder blades, Zhenya gently rubbed the tip of her nose against his smooth nipple. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes narrowed slightly at the strange feeling. The unstimulated flesh is pressed down and rubbed and then crushed without countermeasures according to the guy''s movements. Feelings that have been forgotten for a while return and stimulate faster between the legs. [Look at this. If you don''t do it regularly, it won''t rise anymore. You don''t even do it yourself? You neglect it too much.] Zhenya brushed the tip of his nose and lips as if he were biting them, then suddenly raised his head and buried himself deep into Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. Zhenya bit his neck and sucked on the thin skin there while continuously kneading the elastic buttocks with both hands. Kwon Taek Joo''s body, which was originally standing upright, collapsed little by little under the outpouring of stimulation. He tried to separate himself from Zhenya, who was nibbling on his neck. He seemed dissatisfied with Kwon Taek Joo, who kept stepping on the brakes. Then, as if to show his temper, he bit Kwon Taek Joo''s chin. [Uh. Choi Yeon Hwa... Is it true that she is safe?] [Did you get shot in the eye without me? Why are you so haunted by that woman''s life and death?] [Zhenya. Is it true that she is still alive?] [Maybe so.] Zhenya said he hadn''t touched a single finger and continued. This time, he licked Kwon Taek Joo''s ear lobe and stuck his tongue into Kwon Taek Joo''s ear, his middle finger rhythmically traced the butt bone and thrust deep inside. Kwon Taek Joo groaned and reached back and grabbed his wrist. He grabbed Zhenya by the back of his neck and pulled it away from him. Obstructed once again, Zhenya sighed. [Taek Joo, is it not foreplay but sexual torture?] [You must check the product condition. How did you get that information without touching Choi Yeon Hwa?] (Kill her??) [That side already knows who you are.] [No wonder you go around asking to be identified like that.] Kwon Taek Joo laughed sarcastically. [Noise is no good, so I proposed a deal. I know what she needs most right now. If you can ensure that, it will be easier later.] [You gave Choi Yeon Hwa a family tattoo?] [Well, that''s kind of it.] [Did you have such a peace negotiation?] [Taek Joo, I don''t know how much you misunderstood me, but so far the transaction has been processed without any problems.] Of course Zhenya often calls himself a ''skilful businessman''. Even when Kwon Taek Joo went looking for Anastasia, he had a flexible and tactful conversation with the VIPs and Sergei who attended the party. Just looking at his mother alone at home, the communication still went quite well. However, Kwon Taek Joo could not believe it with certainty because of Zhenya''s unpredictable nature. Looking at the unreliable expression, Zhenya sighed and said [ I have no trust.] His eyebrows also dropped as if he was seriously hurt. How obnoxious. (He being a baby, so funny to read hahah) Kwon Taek Joo lifted the hem of Zhenya''s robe and grabbed the erect penis inside the robe. [You''re still more focused here than talking to me so I can''t believe it.] [It seems like you don''t know? It''s been a long time.] He kissed Zhenya a little and then stood up and knelt down. The huge mass of muscle clenched in Kwon Taek Joo''s hand trembled. Zhenya also gently rubbed his body against Kwon Taek Joo''s inner thighs. He was getting ready to take off his pants. Kwon Taek Joo''s face suddenly became alert, remembering Zhenya''s timely presence at the casino. Once he starts, he won''t have a chance to talk properly anymore, so before that, Kwon Taek Joo must definitely ask. [How did you find out that the dealer was me? Hacking and eavesdropping weren''t enough so you developed a mind reader?] [it''s impossible not to notice.] [So what? I was in disguise and Philip''s colleagues were completely unrecognizable.] [I recognize you, Kwon Taek Joo, you are not Philip.] (A little cute, not going to lie.) He still couldn''t get used to Zhenya achieving his goal so quickly. Kwon Taek Joo''s face showed disapproval. Zhenya raised her head and pressed her lips to his. The lips pressed tightly like a seal and then gently parted. His eyes were also softer than usual at that time. [That''s a piece of cake for me.] After all, this kid is very skilled at manipulating people. Kwon Taek Joo silently looked down at Zhenya and then suddenly grabbed his face. Zhenya blankly looked at Kwon Taek Joo with a relaxed face. A pure desire did not suit him, only a deep blue passion towards him reflected in those eyes. Now Kwon Taek Joo wondered if he was crazy to read those things from Zhenya. He sighed in despair and then lowered his head to kiss Zhenya on the lips. Looking satisfied, Zhenya hugged Kwon Taek Joo''s back tightly and responded to the kiss he led. Lips wrapped around lips and then rubbed together, each time they separated, the corner of his mouth slightly raised. If Zhenya had a tail, it would probably wag wildly. Kwon Taek Joo gently sucked his lips and then rubbed his tongue against the protruding tongue. The moist and tender meat is rubbed and then blended together, both bitter and sweet. Soon, thick saliva formed in his mouth. He sucked his tongue that was bobbing between his lips, then tilted his head and inserted his tongue into Zhenya''s mouth. He bowed his head moderately and did not hesitate to receive Kwon Taek Joo''s tongue. Zhenya''s sternum kept wiggling over and over as if it was very aroused. Zhenya didn''t wear anything after showering so static electricity continued to build up. As if enjoying that tingling stimulation, he traced the dry back of Kwon Taek Joo, who only focused on the kiss, slowly but clearly aroused. Even while kissing, Zhenya also made sweet moaning sounds. Every time he discovers the unusual image of this steel-like man, Kwon Taek Joo feels a strange joy. A moment later, the lips parted. Their eyes met, red with lust. Warm but rapid breaths continued to blow against each other''s necks. Zhenya gently closed his eyes and suddenly stuck out his tongue to lick Kwon Taek Joo''s shiny lips. He grimaced with an annoyed face. [It''s because of you. One is to take the risk to tame it or just wait quietly.] [Good dogs also need to be trained. You have to listen to me.] [Then the owner must be responsible. From the looks of it, it looks like you''re ignoring me.] This kid never gives up even a word. Just then, he heard a jig, and his zipper was unzipped. The hip bone was also helplessly exposed. Kwon Taek Joo''s back suddenly trembled because of the cool air blowing on his body. Zhenya only opens the zipper halfway. That wind caused his penis to start to become erect while it was still tucked tightly into his pants. [ You must have loosened it while bathing, right? It''s quite soft.] Zhenya groped around the hole with both hands and looked at Kwon Taek Joo as if to confirm. [ You have to be more humane than someone else. If you don''t do anything, it''ll probably bleed out.] Zhenya smirked then bowed his head and bit Kwon Taek Joo''s chest then let go. At that moment, the tip of his chin gently pressed Kwon Taek Joo''s nipple, causing him to suddenly tighten his chest. Pretending not to know, Zhenya continuously bit the surrounding flesh until leaving teeth marks, then used his thumb to gently rub the other nipple and squeeze gently. Kwon Taek Joo''s upper body tilted forward in response to unexpected stimuli. The soft, plump breasts rushed in as if they wanted to crush the sharp bridge of her nose. Zhenya happily opened his mouth and sucked the small piece of meat he had been craving for so long. Hot breath along with saliva and the feeling of a soft mouth rushed in at the same time. When Zhenya began to gently suck on the nipple, his eyebrows furrowed. "Hmmm.." Zhenya held Kwon Taek Joo''s hand that was pushing his shoulder, and continued to persistently suck on the small piece of meat. He bit and sucked so hard that the skin around the nipple quickly turned red. Zhenya used his tongue to swipe over the nipple and then rolled it, making it hard. It becomes more sensitive to stimulation, and the hot breath also spreads a strange feeling. Kwon Taek Joo''s breathing became clearly rough. Zhenya hugged him tighter as he continued to try to push him away, saliva rubbing against the slippery flesh. [Ugh, Uhmmm...] [What''s up? I like it. Your waist is shaking.] Where Zhenya touched, Kwon Taek Joo''s flesh trembled uncontrollably. Penis stuck in pants, tight and stiff. He wanted to touch it with his own hands, but he couldn''t move because Zhenya was wrapped around his arms and body. Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo and opened his mouth wide, taking a bite of his chest, sucking on his plump skin and then moving his tongue to play with his nipples. A newborn baby starved for many days probably wouldn''t be that greedy. (HAHA, I too would be that greedy.. please tell me i''m not the only one) Not just this time. Zhenya''s foreplay tends to focus on his chest. Kwon Taek Joo himself also enjoys this stimulation, but sometimes he wonders if this is the lack of lust of his childhood manifested. As he lost his thoughts, Zhenya''s mouth moved away. Her two red nipples glistened as if covered with syrup. Zhenya did not hesitate to use his thumb to massage the smooth flesh, then turned his head to suck on the large breast opposite [Hm..] Kwon Taek Joo''s tightly held hand stretched out and then clenched into a fist. Every time Zhenya sucked hard on his nipple, it felt like something was being sucked out of her body. His upper body kept tilting forward and the heat from his chest pooled down between his legs. Kwon Taek Joo continued to struggle with the unbearable pleasure, his thighs rubbing against Zhenya''s rock-like thighs, continuing to stimulate his penis. Zhenya bit as if to stamp his chest, as if it were a blessing if it didn''t bleed. While Kwon Taek Joo was still moaning, Zhenya tore off the gel and inserted it into the small hole. Before feeling the difference, the gel suddenly gushed out. Kwon Taek Joo was startled, his shoulders trembled. At that time, Zhenya nibbled on Kwon Taek Joo''s left breast and squeezed out a lot of gel. The gel box that should have been new quickly dried up and was thrown to the floor and deformed to the point where its original shape was unrecognizable. Zhenya poked at the hole and inserted his finger into it. Kwon Taek Joo''s spine stiffened with a clear feeling of compression. He rubbed the outer circle while expanding the inner wall. Kwon Taek Joo''s upper body leaned back and trembled, the knees supporting the body also wobbled. Zhenya kissed Kwon Taek Joo''s collarbone and nape as he inserted another finger to loosen it. He spread two fingers wide and wiggled them around, then squeezed and pressed the warm inside to stimulate it. Whenever that happens, Kwon Taek Joo''s abdominal muscles contract. [Huh, ha ha..] [I think your body is resilient, but it''s nothing compared to this.] [Suddenly, ugh..hm..] [Even if it was just a day or two later, it was as if no one had ever touched it. It''s a hassle to have to loosen it every day. I think I tried really hard with it before but it''s still too tight inside.] [...Shut up...ugh..] [You do it on purpose, right? Every time you tense up, my finger will be sucked in deeper.] Zhenya babbled and stretched out his fingers. Although it was nothing compared to Zhenya''s penis, three fingers were enough to make Kwon Taek Joo struggle. He was paralyzed from the bottom up immediately. Every time he went inside the hole and rubbed it, the gel filled inside would come out. The entire genital area cannot stand the stimulation and turns red. Zhenya still calmly put his heart into the small hole and groped it. The long finger is inserted very deeply, so the excitement is maximized. Kwon Taek Joo felt uncomfortable as if he wanted to push Zhenya''s hand away, his stomach was tight and felt like it was full. [Stop it,]he said, then grabbed Zhenya''s hair. His soft ivory hair easily slipped through his fingers. The guy sucked on the nipple and made a clicking sound. The strong suction force causes the soft meat to be continuously sucked up and then bounce up again. His chest was bitten but the pleasure flowed between his legs. Kwon Taek Joo''s penis was under pressure like it was about to explode. He was about to quickly open the zipper, but Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s wrist. [Hmm, let go, kid.] [I''m so impatient. Are you that needy?] [You''re the one who''s stimulating me.] [Taek Joo, I know you like it rougher, but...] Suddenly, Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s waist and gently lifted him up. The completely unpredictable situation took his body by surprise. Kwon Taek Joo''s face was stunned for a moment and then quickly grimaced as Zhenya''s meat entered the hole. [You have to think about my position when I hear you complaining all the time.] [Uh... uh..] Even though he just sat down gently, Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes still frowned. His mouth automatically closed and his breathing stopped. His hands put all his strength into Zhenya''s shoulders. Zhenya was immersed in pleasure when half of his glans entered. He exhaled a hot breath and pressed his lips to Kwon Taek Joo''s neck, whose skin was covered in goosebumps. [I''m the one who bribed you.] Zhenya mumbled into Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. He clenched his molars and pretended to be strong until the end and grabbed his coat as if he wanted to tear it off Zhenya raised the corner of his mouth and without hesitation raised his lower body. The hole that was trying to bite the head of the penis suddenly opened and with difficulty swallowed the huge piece of meat. Kwon Taek Joo''s cheeks became as hard as stone from stress. [Ah... bastard..] [I told you so.] Zhenya scolded Kwon Taek Joo for swearing while kissing his ear. Kwon Taek Joo pulled the string on Zhenya''s cloak and gasped. If he kept that face, he would suffocate or the blood vessels in his head would explode. Kwon Taek Joo let out a breath and relaxed. The penis stuck underneath scraped the inside and slid in more than halfway. His lower abdomen quickly tensed and bulged out. "Ha ha, um..." Why can''t he get used to putting it in? Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously groaned and buried his head in Zhenya''s neck. The strong smell of her body made his head dizzy. His body seemed to have memorized the sensations engraved during each time he made love to Zhenya. Even though it hasn''t quite started yet, the spot that''s always been stimulated is already heating up. Unable to bear that feeling, Kwon Taek Joo unconsciously knelt down. The hole holding Zhenya''s penis also shrunk. The veins were clearly visible on Zhenya''s smooth forehead, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. [Haa... Taek Joo, are you planning to kill me?] [ugh.., hmm.., ugh, stop talking.] He gritted his teeth and said to Zhenya. In an instant, his seemingly floating body fell straight down, the mass of Zhenya''s flesh that was vaguely covered was immediately pushed into its roots. Kwon Taek Joo''s body weight moved and crushed Zhenya''s lower body. A strong collision sound came but. Kwon Taek Joo helplessly tilted his head at the penetrating feeling running down his spine and rising to his brain. "Ha...uh..." He gritted his molars and swallowed down the groan that was about to explode, strength put into his fingertips gripping Zhenya''s shoulder tightly. If it were a normal man, his collarbone would have been broken. The tight inner wall twisted like a spasm, squeezing the genitals, making Zhenya''s always relaxed face frown slightly at the tightness. The mass of flesh trembled like a living fish inside him stirring up sensation, texture and even body temperature. Kwon Taek Joo''s body has been trained for a long time but accepting this name is still too much. Zhenya calmly touched Kwon Taek Joo''s hole that was twitching like a child and buried her head in his chest. His smooth bronze skin quickly became mottled with teeth marks. Kwon Taek Joo trembled and desperately waited for the storm to come. As if he was a little impatient, he hastily tightened his grip on Zhenya''s penis. Zhenya laughed like the sound of the wind blowing. Chapter 67 - 5.4 Side Story Chapter 67 - 5.4 Side Story[I know] Zhenya started thrusting into Kwon Taek Joo''s lower body with a low, cooling voice. He tried to restrain his body but his whole body kept shaking because he was suppressed by an excessive force. His body bounced up and then fell down, swallowing Zhenya''s muscles, expanding the hole and clawing at the tight inside. Kwon Taek Joo tried to run away instinctively, but Zhenya tightly grabbed his waist as he tried to escape and quickly rushed downwards. His firm thighs and round butt rubbing against Zhenya made him even more eager. Screaming moans erupted from the strong thrusts as if left alone, Kwon Taek Joo''s navel would be punctured. The little hole was sucking on Zhenya''s penis with unbearable difficulty. The inside was also constantly being hit by the foreskin like a rock. Kwon Taek Joo bent down and quickly rolled up Zhenya''s cloak and grabbed it tightly, he raised his knees and held Zhenya''s thighs tightly to stop the movements. [Hey, ugh, wait.] Zhenya appeared dissatisfied. The blue eyes looking at Kwon Taek Joo became sharp like an animal that had just smiled blood and was ready to hunt. Looking into the eyes of the man consumed by desire, it was nothing short of a miracle that he stopped. [I think this is also part of the quest. Taek Joo, what I want is in your hands.] "Ahh, ah..." Zhenya rubbed Kwon Taek Joo''s nipples and pulled them all the way up. His pelvis tingled happily, he couldn''t take it anymore and rubbed Zhenya gently. Taking advantage of that gap, Zhenya lifted his lower body that was momentarily frozen. As Kwon Taek Joo grunted and collapsed under repeated insertions, Zhenya placed her lips around his chin and neck and continued to thrust. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t hold back any longer and reached between his legs. He hastily tried to open the zipper that was blocking his way, but every time Zhenya stabbed him hard under his body as if on purpose, so his repeated attempts were in vain. Then he kissed Kwon Taek Joo, who was angry and panting. He uncomfortably grabbed Zhenya''s hair and pushed his tongue between his naturally parted lips. Two tongues merged together, the inside of the mouth quickly became sweet. Only then did the zipper in Zhenya''s hand fully open. Kwon Taek Joo''s penis, which was already stretched from the inside, rushed out as if it were bouncing. Zhenya pulled it with his fingers and pressed it against his stomach. Kwon Taek Joo''s body shuddered every time his butt was poked and his penis rubbed against Zhenya''s abs. A feeling of excitement rose up to the point that his hair stood up, his eyes, ears, nape and even shoulders turned red. Zhenya''s stomach was covered in clear liquid. For a moment, the only thing left in the living room was the sound of the two people breathing heavily and pounding skin rubbing against each other. [Ha.. ha.. Taek Joo...] [Oh! Oh! ah, sss, hauughss, ahh...] Kwon Taek Joo trembled constantly, gently rubbing her bottom and then gently turning her back to seek stimulation to the desired place. Zhenya placed Kwon Taek Joo''s arm behind his shoulder and hugged him tightly until their shoulders touched each other. [You won. Who''s the one who keeps hitting the brakes?] Teasing mixed with sweet laughter. Zhenya placed his lips on Kwon Taek Joo''s shoulder and then moaned softly "hm...". Kwon Taek Joo bowed his head as if to prepare for what was about to happen, his arms around Zhenya''s neck also tensed. The next moment, Zhenya rotated around below and thrust hard inside. For a moment, Kwon Taek Joo trembled as if he was about to faint. Even though his glans only touched a certain spot, his whole body trembled and his eyes were wet as if he were about to cry. Zhenya''s entire body tensed up as his penis was bitten fiercely, and his lungs tightened to the point of making it difficult to breathe. [Here? Do you like it?] Kwon Taek Joo didn''t answer but just hugged Zhenya more desperately. Without any hesitation, he roughly stuffed the huge meat that was being sucked tightly. Kwon Taek Joo seemed to be crushed and collapsed with all four limbs dangling. "A, aa! uh, ah! ugh, ha, uh, uh, ha!" He didn''t know what to do with that intense stimulation, his lips were bitten by Zhenya with his teeth and repeatedly drew long arcs. The desire for the flesh increased more and more as if it were painful, the wrinkles in the middle of his forehead did not have time to relax, the heat from the lower part of his body seemed to melt his brain. Even so, Kwon Taek Joo still wanted more. (MORE??) Zhenya suddenly grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s thigh and stood up. He quickly grabbed onto Zhenya as his body slid due to gravity, the insertion becoming deeper. "Ah, ah...uh!" Kwon Taek Joo groaned. He felt that Zhenya''s penis had penetrated all the way to his ribs. The breath he couldn''t exhale or swallow was stuck in his throat and he kept trembling. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his back so Zhenya would drop him. But regardless, Zhenya continued walking somewhere while kissing Kwon Taek Joo''s ear and face. With each step, the guy''s hot iron thrust harder and harder, making him feel like he was about to die. Zhenya pushed Kwon Taek Joo into some wall. He stabilized him between the hard wall and himself. Kwon Taek Joo''s face contorted in both pain and pleasure, his eyes frowning at Zhenya as if he were annoyed. Zhenya grinned and stuck out her tongue to lick his sweaty cheeks for a long time. [Don''t endure it, just moan freely.] Zhenya whispered softly. But to Kwon Taek Joo, those words were like a declaration of war, an ominous omen ahead. Damn it, right after that, Zhenya started moving his lower body. He stretched his back backwards then slammed downwards and dug deep into the hole. It felt like his insides were being ripped apart. Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even have time to moan, his mouth was tightly closed, there was only the deafening sound of flesh slapping together, the side of his inner thigh colliding with Zhenya''s thigh continuously hurt like he was being beaten. hit. The gel at the intersection of the body turns white due to frequent friction and then stretches into strong strings like a spider web along the skin. [ugh, ah...] The mass of flesh coming in and out was about to explode as if it wanted to poke a hole out of his stomach. Zhenya hugged Kwon Taek Joo tightly to keep him from falling and kept moving. When Zhenya squeezed his glans, Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t stand it and was startled. "hmmm..!" [I told you not to endure it.] The white bubble that formed around the hole burst and reappeared. His body kept being lifted up and then falling helplessly back down, the penetration only getting deeper and deeper. Kwon Taek Joo had no choice but to hug Zhenya and endure that terrible pleasure. Sandwiched between the wall and Zhenya, there was nowhere for him to run anymore. Zhenya repeatedly poked the same spot and then rubbed vigorously. His fingertips stood up at the feeling of being crushed by the sensitive area being stimulated. It was so strong that even his toes felt a burning sensation. Not long after. Kwon Taek Joo let out an uncomfortable groan. "Uh, ha, ha..." His body trembled continuously. His penis, rubbing continuously against Zhenya''s abs, exploded white. The powerful surge of semen not only shot up Zhenya''s broad chest muscles, but also shot hard up to his chin. Both the genitals and the entire pelvis are numb. An unconscious groan came out. "Aw, oops... fuck... His whole body trembled pitifully, Kwon Taek Joo hugged Zhenya tightly without moving. Zhenya buried her face in his dark hair and carried him to a nearby bedroom. The mass of meat was stuffed so tightly inside that it couldn''t slip out even if Zhenya walked, but on the contrary, his slight movements also stimulated the inside of his stomach, causing pleasure to wriggle everywhere. In the bedroom there is a bed large enough for four adults to lie around. Zhenya put Kwon Taek Joo down and climbed into bed. The giant, over 2 meters tall, exerted enormous pressure on his entire body. Even when Kwon Teak Joo was crushed by a rock, it didn''t seem that heavy. "Ahh..ah.." Zhenya lifted his knees up as if to touch his chest, and his lungs were compressed, making his breathing unstable. In the blink of an eye, Kwon Teak Joo''s entire face turned red. He choked out a sigh, but Zhenya pretended not to hear. He kissed Kwon Taek Joo''s lips without hesitation. When he tried to protest in anger, Zhenya twisted his head and stuck his tongue into his half-closed lips. The hot wet tongue rushed in and sucked Kwon Taek Joo''s tongue. Even his exploding breath was swallowed without a trace remaining. Meanwhile, Zhenya''s flesh column that had been gently pierced underneath began to move. It both slowly penetrated deep inside and swirled strongly. Kwon Taek Joo closed his eyes tightly and sighed. [How much longer will it take?l "Ah.. ha..." [This size can be shaped.] Zhenya muttered each syllable slowly while emphasizing the bottom. He seemed to want to create a mold in the shape of his penis in someone else''s stomach. Zhenya stared at Kwon Taek Joo''s sweaty face with unusually bright eyes while his lower body steadily dug deep and stirred inside him. If this continues. Kwon Taek Joo will suffocate and die. (Zhenya is trying to burn Kwon Taek Joo''s face in his eyes and head) [Ugh, stop joking around and get it over with quickly.] He angrily gritted his teeth and arowled. In anger, Kwon Taek Joo grabbed Zhenya''s cloak as if pulling at the collar. He laughed again like the sound of the wind blowing. [You still don''t know your situation and are really brave.] Immediately afterwards, Zhenya pressed his chest against Kwon Taek Joo, almost crushing him completely. He was out of breath. Kwon Taek Joo tried to move his body to have time to breathe, but he was pressed so tightly that he could not move. The guy fixed Kwon Taek Joo that way and moved his lower body and thrust deep inside. His thigh was hit hard. A burning sensation rose from the helplessly expanding hole. The curses and moans that came out of Kwon Taek Joo''s mouth were mixed, but Zhenya didn''t pay attention and just thrust harder. At the place where the penis hits, the feeling of numbness condenses and quickly spreads to the whole body. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes flashed, his brain felt like it was boiling. The penis, which has become smaller after ejaculation, now regains energy and stretches to stand up. He wanted to touch it to reduce the heat accumulated there, but was suppressed by Zhenya. He angrily bit Zhenya''s neck. For a moment, he squirmed and then suddenly stopped. The angry hole twitched and tightened on the guy''s flesh, Kwon Taek Joo''s limbs also trembled. Suddenly Kwon Taek Joo''s body flipped over. At that moment, the blood on Zhenya''s face seemed to be drained, it seemed like the thin thread of reason had also been severed. [Wait.] he tried to stop Zhenya. but Zhenya grabbed the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck and pushed him down. He also grabbed the arms that were trying to resist and tied them tightly above his head. Zhenya then without hesitation lifted up the half-attached penis. The blows were so strong that Kwon Taek Joo''s buttocks were pushed up. The deep and merciless thrust made his body feel like it wanted to split in half [ah! ah! ahhhh! ugh, ah! ah Hey, ha!] He shook his head and twisted his body but couldn''t get free. Zhenya completely disregarded Kwon Taek Joo and continued to act persistently. It seemed like his insides had been crushed so much that they became sticky, sticking tightly to the penis that was moving in and out of the small hole. As if that alone wasn''t enough, Zhenya grabbed Kwon Taek Joo''s ass and spread them open. His vision shook chaotically with the rough thrusting, saliva running down his chin soaking the pillow. "Ahhh, uhm, ah... ahhhhhh... ahh...assss!" [Uhm, uhhh, ahaahh, haaaa... Taek Joo.] [Uh, hey, ah, hey, Yevgeny...] Kwon Taek Joo placed his wet forehead on Zhenya''s arm holding his wrist. Zhenya''s penis throbbed and stopped in a call that was nothing more than a plea. The pain and pleasure that poured down like pouring rain also temporarily subsided. The restless trembling of his body became quiet and the mild dizziness returned. Kwon Taek Joo was barely breathing and the other guy''s item, which had been buried deep in his stomach, exploded. The slimy semen spurted out hotly inside him. Kwon Taek Joo''s stomach was tense. Zhenya slowly and gently caressed Kwon Taek Joo''s belly. He placed his body completely on his back and rubbed his face into his black hair. [Taek Joo.] The loving call seemed to hold me back. The person who had just tore him apart as if wanting to kill him was enjoying the ultimate pleasure inside him. Kwon Taek Joo sighed and stroked Zhenya''s hair helplessly. Zhenya obediently took that hand and lowered his lips to Kwon Taek Joo''s neck. He took a deep breath, enjoying the smell of his body. Even though he was such a monster, when Zhenya acted like a bia puppy like now, Kwon Taek Joo''s mind suddenly became weak and defenseless. Someone has to take a step back. If he continues to watch over this guy. he probably won''t be able to live according to his life''s goal anymore. ¡ª¡ª When he opened his eves, Kwon Taek Joo had been moved to another bedroom. It is unknown when and how he moved. Because the bed sheet was wet, it seemed like he couldn''t sleep there last night. What time is it? Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t even tell if it was night or day because of the blackout curtains. He added strength to his drooping eyelids. His body is relatively light. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen. He usually wakes up first in the morning after completely tearing and crushing you. Is Zhenya taking a bath? Kwon Taek Joo exhaled tiredly. Sometimes Zhenya''s stamina is scary. Kwon Taek Joo himself always receives exceptional marks in all fitness and training assessments, but he cannot be compared to Zhenya. You couldn''t even do it at his age to justify it just because Zhenya was young. Kwon Taek Joo lay down for a while then stood up on his own. His head, which had been dizzy all night, was now completely blank. His whole body felt numb as if it were swollen. Kwon Taek Joo looked down at his body. There were speckled handprints and tooth marks everywhere the eye could see, and even the slightest movement sent screaming pain through all four limbs. It was as if he had been beaten. The problem was that his body was so used to the combined strength exercises whenever he rolled with Zhenya. "Ah... Monster" The inside of his ass was still burning. While Kwon Taek Joo fell asleep, Zhenya was clearly enjoying himself again. Come to think of it, he was rarely awake when he made love to Zhenya. Until now, he has lived a life with no problems regarding nutritional supplements or physical supplements. Even during regular checkups and health checks, his physical condition is always above average. But Kwon Taek Joo himself is not Zhenya''s opponent. If you have a young lover, is everything like this? No, no matter how you look at it, this kid is not normal. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed his waist and walked out to the living room. The strange feeling of his thighs rubbing against each other with every step made him limp. He needed to take a shower but right now his legs were shaking and it was difficult to stand. Kwon Taek Joo tried to get a bottle of water and went to the terrace. As soon as I opened the door, a cool breeze blew in. The noise blocked by the door also spilled in colorfully. It''s night outside again. After all, how long did he have to make love and how long did he faint? Kwon Taek Joo gasped. The flashy lights and signs found only in Las Vegas distracted him. He quenched his thirst and then indifferently looked down at the somewhat ecstatic scene below. Only then did Kwon Taek Joo feel like his sluggish head regained consciousness. How long has it been? He felt a familiar presence behind him, and Zhenya appeared. He smells good. It looked like Zhenya had just finished showering. Kwon Taek Joo turned his head and stared at the guy who seemed sober. The guy raised his eyebrows as if he didn''t understand. [Why are you dissatisfied again?] [Are you human?] [I don''t understand what you''re saying.] [If you go to the hospital like this, you''ll have to be treated for 3 weeks, kid.] He gritted his teeth. Zhenya leisurely crossed his arms and glanced at Kwon Taek Joo''s body. Seeing his chest full of bite marks, he smiled. [Are there any hospitals that specialize in men''s breasts?] Without any expression of apology other than a vulgar joke, Kwon Taek Joo threw a cushion nearby. Zhenya easily dodged and shrugged. [It''s all your own doing.] [Did I tell you to attack? I told you more than 10 times to stop, you brat.] [Start by leaving your lover for more than 10 days. Doesn''t that mean you''ll accept this?] Zhenya was as usual, blaming others and being shameless. But the problem is that being with him as a lover and being apart for more than 10 days because of work are both true. Kwon Taek Joo has nothing to refute. Even after Zhenya followed him to Korea. Kwon Taek Joo''s daily life did not change much. Once a task is assigned, another task is assigned. This is because the relationship with North Korea has not changed even though the government has changed and the policy towards North Korea has changed. As long as North Korea does not give up its nuclear weapons, the current tension has no choice but to continue. Even though it is. When there''s no one to play with, he should focus on his work, right? Kwon Taek Joo wondered if this was something to complain about when Zhenya chased him all the way to where he worked like this. I have never seen a guy with the title of Russian ambassador go on a diplomatic mission. If he''s bored, he can go to Ajinoki Island alone, but Zhenya won''t accept it even if he dies. [Don''t you know I live like this? That''s it, why are you focusing on such strange things...] He scratched his head awkwardly. In the past and now, Kwon Taek Joo himself was just doing his job, but suddenly he had a strange feeling of guilt. Every time we quarrel for the same reason, he felt a bit frustrated. [I know. In fact, he was too obsessed with sacrificing his body. You said you had to run and roll that way to survive, right? That''s why I''m compatible with you.] Just have to give in. With that statement, Zhenya will continue to do so in the future, not to mention self-criticism. Kwon Taek Joo shook his head as if he didn''t want to talk anymore, then he stood up and walked next to Zhenya. [I''ll take a shower.] [Is it okay to not check this right away?] Zhenya held up the microchip delivered from Choi Yeon Hwa. Kwon Taek Joo has not been able to check any data in there. If you receive the wrong information, this mission is not over yet. Kwon Taek Joo hesitated, he ignored his face and turned back to Zhenya. He snatched the chip and plugged it into the phone. Zhenya rubbed his face into Kwon Taek Joo''s black hair until the data was displayed on the screen. He used both hands to massage Kwon Taek Joo''s chest and abdomen annoyingly. Zhenya seems to have learned properly that if you give Kwon Taek Joo what he wants then he will become obedient for a bit. Not long after, many files appeared on the screen. He opened one of them at random. Bank names, accounts, passwords and deposits for each European country have been listed. They all have different names, so it seems like they are accounts that borrow names to fund slush funds. Then Kwon Taek Joo also checked other files. It''s a folder that contains multiple ledgers. It is like a kind of bill of sale. The document also states when and from whom the funding was received, how the money was laundered and what the purpose of the funding was. Kwon Taek Joo searches for Korean social groups that appear in intelligence information. Then, relevant documents are selected. Funding is not a one-time deal. The amount of money is also very significant. Their aim seems to be to get North Korea to participate in the general election in South Korea. They still want to do something like this, even though times have changed but the quality of work in the political world remains the same. It was data that Kwon Taek Joo himself struggled to obtain but Zhenya quickly achieved it in just a few hours. At times like these you have to say thank you, right? Kwon Taek Joo had no intention of competing with Zhenya, but he felt awkward. Can we say emptiness, or a feeling of helplessness? Zhenya''s help was not very welcome. [What''s up? Is something wrong?] [...Are not. I see everything is easy for you.] [People just make easy things difficult.] And the way of thinking is also self centered. Do you think everyone has as much money, power and inhumane force as you? [What should I do? If you have a worthy lover, you should be proud.] [You''re so strange] Zhenya said then turned Kwon Taek Joo around. He lifted his chin and was about to kiss him. Kwon Taek Joo observed the face of the guy slowly approaching. Is it because those pale eyelashes are wet that they look so clear today? Zhenya seems to know very well that his face is his strongest point and Kwon Taek Joo''s weak point. He often looked at that face in bewilderment. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the guy close to his breath and suddenly pinched his cheek. The man''s eyes, which were lowered, suddenly became round. [...Taek Joo?] [Do you want to hear my thanks? Then I have to leave it to you too. You''re not doing this to make money, right?] [It''s okay to say thank you. Be proud of your patience for not blowing up NIS yet.] I don''t understand why those words don''t sound like a joke. With resignation, Kwon Taek Joo said [Uhm] then pulled Zhenya''s cheek. Zhenya''s lower lip that was being gently pulled away bit into him. Kwon Taek Joo tilted his head back as he tried to suck on his upper lip. Zhenya did not hesitate to touch his lips again. This time, Kwon Taek Joo wanted to receive a gentle kiss but he instead bit his upper lip. When he used his tongue to lure Zhenya into a sweet kiss, that tongue also stubbornly continued to nibble. I don''t know if he''s planning to kiss me or bite me. Zhenya gave a silly smile. [Are you planning on having dinner?] [Uhm. Some kid made me exercise all night so I''m hungry.] [Almost there.] Kwon Taek Joo was about to ask what it was but Zhenya put his finger in his mouth. He gently pressed his tongue while touching his lips. Saliva flowed in his mouth and his constantly bullied tongue got tired and began to wrap around Zhenya''s fingers. Only then did he pull out his finger and slide it up his cheek and place his lips on Kwon Taek Joo''s panting lips. The twitching tongue was reflexively sucked into Zhenya''s mouth with a choking sound. Just then the doorbell rang. It seemed like someone had come, but Zhenya was still so immersed in the kiss that he didn''t think about going out. Kwon Taek Joo signaled to stop while gently pulling him away, but instead, Zhenya just hugged Kwon Taek Joo tighter, his lungs seemed to be squeezed too. Kwon Taek Joo moaned for a long time while sucking his tongue and then he pushed Zhenya away. [Okay.] [...Ha, once this kid starts, he doesn''t know how to end. Get out. Why do you say when something comes?] He took a deep breath and cleared his throat, panting. Zhenya reluctantly opened the door with a dissatisfied look on his face. Kwon Taek Joo hears the sound of room service outside. While waiting, he went to the nearby bathroom and took a shower first. He turned on the faucet without thinking much and was startled by the water flowing down. Because as soon as the water touches the body, all parts of the body tingle. Feeling his whole body becoming sensitive after just one day, Kwon Taek Joo looked down at his body, there wasn''t a single part that hadn''t been bitten or sucked by Zhenya. The skin is congested and bruised. The inside of the arms, chest, groin, hips and buttocks still have clear tooth marks. There were also faint fingerprints on the wrists and ankles. If someone saw him, they would think he had been fighting all day, not making love. Kwon Taek Joo sighed deeply and combed his wet hair after taking a shower. Feeling a familiar feeling, he gently pulled back the hem of his shirt and examined his chest. The condition there is worse than anywhere else in the body. Especially the color of the nipple has changed to the point that fortunately it does not bleed. Moreover, it also stands up vertically, so if you wear a shirt, you will definitely be seen. A sharp pain throbbed even as he touched it carefully. At this rate, he wondered if Zhenya would grind her teeth against his chest. Kwon Taek Joo clicked his tongue and took the tape and stuck it on both breasts. Before stepping out, he closed the front of his coat and tightened his belt. Because if Zhenya saw it then he wouldn''t be able to guarantee his current situation. When he exited the living room, covered plates were piled high on the table. At a glance, there are likely ten discs. Zhenya was drinking tea gracefully without a glance. Sitting with long legs crossed, tilting a bright cup of tea looks like a painting, very unsightly. "..That noble bastard." Kwon Taek Joo muttered to himself and tilted his head. [Huh? What are you saying, Taek Joo?] [It looks so delicious.] (Cover up because Zhenya doesn''t know Korean, haha) Kwon Taek Joo looked around then walked to the table. He opened each plate one by one and checked the menu. From the beginning he didn''t expect much, but there really wasn''t any Korean food. Steaks and pasta, steamed seafood, grilled vegetables, salads, sandwiches and soups. The only Asian dishes are Japanese bread and Chinese noodles. Just looking at it made his stomach growl even more. [It''s been 10 days since I''ve been able to eat anything properly.] Kwon Taek Joo grumbled while chewing broccoli. The temporomandibular joint only performs continuous chewing movement like a machine. It is often said that each race and nation has its own unique body odor. Luckily, he had stayed away from Korean food for a while so Choi Yeon Hwa couldn''t notice it from him. Kwon Taek Joo even went around wearing strong perfume. Even though the result was that he was just wasting his time. Kwon Taek Joo cut the steak into bite-sized pieces and placed it on a fork with the salad. He stuffed it all into his mouth as if crushing it. His cheeks were puffed up as if he had eaten a large roll and his mouth was pursed without any inspiration. How long has it been? The doorbell rang again. Is anyone else coming? Kwon Taek Joo glanced at Zhenya. The guy stood up from his seat without a word of explanation. Kwon Taek Joo looked after him, then put the meat and salad on his fork and stuffed it into his mouth. Just then the door opened and he heard him talking to someone. Judging from the conversation, it seemed like Zhenya had requested something. Suddenly a familiar smell stimulated his senses. Kwon Taek Joo''s jaw, which was moving forcibly, stopped for a moment. His eyes widened and he walked towards the door. No way. Zhenya walked in with a tray in his hand, placed on top of it was a white bowl and a plate covering it. At first glance, it seems to be a spicy Korean dish. For sure. [...Where did that come from?] [I talked to the restaurant. I wonder if many Koreans come here so they have.] No, it''s because I''m a VVIP that I turn nothing into something. Sarcasm welled up in my heart along with reason and instinct screaming at the same time. As if hypnotized, Kwon Taek Joo reached out his hand towards Zhenya as if he was asking for a hug. Zhenya smiled and obediently handed the tray to Kwon Taek Joo. He also quickly moved aside the plate of steak that was placed in front of Kwon Taek Joo. Kwon Taek Joo carefully placed the tray down as if he were holding a child, he didn''t want to spill even a drop of soup. He then looked at the state of the ramen and muttered in displeasure. "Damn, there''s as much water as the Han River. Don''t they even look at the recipe?" At first glance there was a lot of water, but he drank the broth first. Fat in the blood vessels seems to be washed away. Ramen is still just a fried dish. but Kwon Taek Joo feels much more comfortable. He slurped the soup from the noodles that were about to bloom again and enjoyed the refreshing feeling. Zhenya held his chin while watching and said that his hobby was useless. There''s clearly something Zhenya got wrong here. It is believed that Kwon Taek Joo likes ramen. Actually, I don''t like ramen very much. He didn''t hate it, but it was one of the dishes he didn''t eat often in Korea. But the longer you stay abroad, the more Korean people crave food, like homesickness. Of course it wasn''t unreasonable for Zhenya to make such a mistake since he kept his eyes on the ramen in front of him every time. Kwon Taek Joo pushed the steak that had lost its owner towards Zhenya. [Eat it.] He mumbled with his mouth full of noodles Zhenya, who never ate anything others touched first, obediently picked up his fork and knife. Then, he carefully put the meat cut into bite-sized pieces into his mouth and chewed quietly. His cheeks weren''t swollen, his lips were tightly pursed, neither opening nor moving much. And it took quite a while to finish eating that small piece of meat. Zhenya''s movements were so graceful that it was as if he was acting out a scene from a movie. Strangely, it seemed that only the light on the side where Zhenya sat was the most special. Is there also a spotlight here? Kwon Taek Joo looked up at the ceiling. The moment he looked at Zhenya again, he recognized that look and looked straight into Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes. Zhenya even asked with his eyes if he had anything to say. He picked up a noodle he was eating and brought it towards Zhenya. The guy looked puzzled. Kwon Taek Joo waved his chopsticks as if inviting him to try it. The guy didn''t move. Kwon Taek Joo also nodded to ramen again without backing down. Zhenya sighed and quickly tilted his head. He silently accepted and ate the noodles that Kwon Taek Joo gave him. [How was it?] he asked. There was no reply. Zhenya just crossed his arms and quietly chewed what was in his mouth. He finished the rest of the ramen and watched Zhenya''s reaction. The man''s jaw stopped moving, and the neckline slowly swayed one by one. But that''s all. Now, as if he had become immune to that level of spiciness, Zhenya casually sliced the steak again. Then suddenly Zhenya lifted the glass of water and rinsed his mouth. It was a leisurely movement, not rushed. However, his ears and eyes were a bit red. Zhenya drank water little by little until the glass was all gone, it seemed like even his lips were swollen. Perhaps the ultimate secret to escaping Koshichei is Korean red pepper. Kwon Taek Joo had a good time with a ridiculous idea. Zhenya looked at him resentfully. [Are you happy, Taek Joo?] [That''s really cool. Most mercenaries learned how to make kimchi within a year of living in Korea. How are you still like this?] [Spicy is not a taste, but a pain. Is it necessary to get used to the pain?] [Those are not words you can say, you brazen brat.] Zhenya had forced him to adapt to the pain, but now he was stupid enough to ask him that again. [It''s good for you too, Taek Joo. Now I can easily put mine in.] A person who lacks shame because he cannot be more shameless. Regardless of time and place, even in front of his mother. Zhenya said vulgar things. He gulped and said it was spicy. His blue eyes were always calm and seemed to be surrounded by gentle water. Kwon Taek Joo put all the milk into a cup of coffee and gave it to Zhenya. The movement of the guy receiving the cup was not natural but as if surprised. He quietly placed his mouth on the cup for a moment and then swallowed. The contrasting sizes of Zhenya and the cup make Kwon Taek Joo feel both trivial and cute. [How long do you want to live on that baby''s tongue? If you can''t eat spicy food in Korea, the food you can eat will be reduced by one-third.] [I hope to live there all my life.] It was a word without any particular weight, but in that moment, Kwon Taek Joo''s hand, which was preparing to continue the meal, unconsciously stopped. [.What? He nodded and shyly brushed it off. Kwon Taek Joo does not envision a distant future. It wasn''t until one day that Zhenya''s unusual interest in him faded away, when he regained composure. He just decided on such an ambiguous ending. This is not a relationship that started because we loved Sear?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. each other so much that we couldn''t live without each other. It''s only been a year. However, due to work, the two were only together for less than 100 days. It is said that life is unpredictable and people''s minds change when they reflect. Is it necessary to make an appointment for the distant future, though? It wasn''t like he was determined to be responsible for Zhenya for the rest of his life. Kwon Taek Joo understood that in his mind, but why did he keep feeling empty? The chopsticks became slow. The salad was almost at the level of being stuffed into the mouth like a masher. He didn''t know what he had put in his mouth and was chewina greedily when Zhenya suddenly stood up. Kwon Taek Joo''s eyes followed. [Eat more.] He thought he wanted to go to the bathroom, but Zhenya went into a nearby bedroom. Zhenya didn''t come back for a while. At first Kwon Taek Joo didn''t notice, but the prolonged absence made him glance toward the door. Lunch also stops there. Zhenya reappeared with decent clothes. When Kwon Taek Joo looked at him, Zhenya checked his watch and said [I''m about to leave.] [Where to go?] [That...] The guy answered briefly and then reached for the phone on the table, ready to leave at any time. But Kwon Taek Joo still wore the robe. Wavy hair is only half dry. Leave the country looking like this? No, ignoring that problem, he had wasted too much time on this activity alone. Kwon Taek Joo should immediately hand over the data to headquarters and be ready in case of an unexpected dispatch. I don''t have time to hang out in Russia. [Ya, this time it really won''t work. The scale of the case is larger than I thought, so I must immediately report it to my superiors.] [Don''t worry. I will go alone.] He almost unconsciously asked again. Because if Zhenya appeared during the operation, he had to go to Aiinoki Island after completing the job. You have to spend the time he earns himself there. It''s always like that, regardless of whether Kwon Taek Joo wants it or not. But luckily that''s not the case this time. However, it was clear that his shocked face had not disappeared. [It may take a few days.) Did something happen to the Boadanov family? No, it would be strange if nothing happened to that family. Haven''t there been any special trends or problems in Russia recently? Even if that happened, there would be no reason to bring in Zhenya, who is currently the ambassador to South Korea. Should you ask why? Is that too invasive of privacy? If it''s a problem that Kwon Taek Joo can''t solve, then asking won''t change anything. Zhenya ended the story there. Kwon Taek Joo poured wine into a glass and drank it all. Zhenya quietly observed him then suddenly approached and lifted Kwon Taek Joo''s chin. Before swallowing all the wine in his mouth, Kwon Taek Joo parted his lips. A bit of wine choked in his mouth. Ugh, he frowned. Zhenya didn''t mind and just licked his thick lips before leaving. He looks like he''s smiling and closing his eyes as usual, so it seems like there''s nothing to worry about. [I''ll be back soon.] [Go quickly. I also want to rest a bit.] Kwon Taek Joo pushed Zhenya''s back. [Not cute at all,] Zhenya smiled and left the room. The door opened when he left and then closed again. The room suddenly became quiet. Kwon Taek Joo took wine and a glass and went to the private swimming pool. No one bothers me anymore so I can rest now. Kwon Taek Joo gently dipped his toes into the water. The water is moderately warm. He sat on a nearby sunbed and enjoyed the breeze. The splendid night view of Las Vegas stretches across the glass wall. A city that forgets the night. A feast of bright lights as if sprinkled with precious stones. All of them, including the top floor rooms and fragrant sake. Have you ever experienced such luxury in your entire life? "It''s such an unreasonable luxury." Kwon Taek Joo sighed and drank another glass of wine. He gently swallowed the remaining wine and massaged his sore neck. His body gradually softened as if he could sleep soundly right now. Kwon Taek Joo sat indifferently like that for a long time. Thanks to Zhenya, his work went smoothly and it couldn''t have been better to enjoy some alone time like this until he returned to Korea. But there is also something a bit worrying. It feels strange to be alone in such a luxurious space. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand why. Is there anything I should ask just now? Kwon Taek Joo looked up at the ceiling and thought vaguely. Chapter 68 - 5.5 Side Story Chapter 68 - 5.5 Side StoryIt''s been two weeks since losing contact with Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo said goodbye to him in Las Vegas and returned to Korea by plane the next morning. He checked his phone as soon as he arrived at the airport, but there were no messages from Zhenya. He should have come to Moscow a long time ago. Since then there has been no news until now. Of course in the case of other people, it''s useless to worry about Zhenya''s health. But he had never been away for such a long time, so Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t help but care. Perhaps the lona vacation arranged after completing the mission was boring, so Kwon Taek Joo had a lot of time to think like that. Yoon Jong Woo, who is called every two days, introduced a popular game recently. After mastering it in less than a week, Kwon Taek Joo lost interest. Yoon Jong Woo asked him to join another game with him. But the problem is that forming a group in real life or in the game does not suit his interests at all. I don''t understand why Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t want to watch movies or videos or even read books during this vacation. He picked up the phone again and stared at his list of one-way calls. Are you sick anywhere? Or was it a sudden accident or emergency surgery? Because of such unavoidable circumstances, can''t you contact me or come back soon? (Zhenya got him attached) Kwon Taek Joo assumed some situations and then shook his head after a while. He couldn''t imagine such things would happen to Zhenya. That guy wasn''t always an iron man, because we lived together for only a year and there was also a time when he got sick. Zhenya especially struggled with the Korean heat. Due to the effects of global warming, occasional heat ups and downs of up to 30 degrees have been recorded in Moscow, but that has nothing to do with Zhenya. If it gets hot, Zhenya will go to Ajinoki Island. The guy, after taking cold showers several times a day. finally poured ice into the bathtub. then filled it with cold water and sat down. Just being close to Zhenya at that time was enough to feel a cold atmosphere. [What are you doing?] [Don''t you know?] [If so, you will suffer from hypothermia and possibly go straight to hell because of cardiac arrest.] [Isn''t it hell now? Awful. The whole country is as hot as boiling.] [What can you do to that extent?] There was no point in nagging Zhenya to go out and saying he would catch a cold. And it would be even more troublesome if Kwon Taek Joo stopped him any more, because he might also be dragged into the bathtub if he kept loitering in front of Zhenya. Kwon Taek Joo had to leave him alone. A moment later Zhenya came out of the bathroom, his porcelain white face without a drop of blood. [You are as white as a piece of paper. Lips are also pale.] Clicking his tongue, Kwon Taek Joo used a towel to dry Zhenya''s hair. The boy who was obediently entrusting his body to Kwon Taek Joo suddenly rushed towards him with a cold body. It was so cold that he didn''t know if it was human body temperature or not, sea??h th§× ¦ÇovelFire.¦Çet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. just touching Zhenya gave him goosebumps all over his body. Kwon Taek Joo turned on the heater, but Zhenya still couldn''t warm up. I knew it would be like this. Kwon Taek Joo sighed and hugged the clingy kid. That day, Zhenya did not let go of Kwon Taek Joo until his body became hot again. Once he starts making love, Zhenya usually doesn''t know how to stop, even though it''s dangerous to sweat in such a frozen state. And the next day, Zhenya fell ill. The person who always wakes up first, is drowsy that day and doesn''t even intend to get up. He touched Zhenya''s forehead. he seemed to have a fever. [Ah kid, what did I say? I told you not to overdo it. Just turning on the air conditioner is enough. I''m not a snowman but you''re still so strangely stubborn.] [Taek Joo. I just have a little fever. There''s nothing to worry about.] Although Zhenya acted like nothing special, he still did not loosen his arm from Kwon Taek Joo''s waist. How can you move with this thing stuck to you? [Then put this down. I have to go to work.] [You''re so cold, Taek Joo] [I''m not a child, I''m not sick to the point of death. If it continues to not get better, go to the hospital. If not, then go home. I''ll call mom.] Zhenya blankly listened to Kwon Taek Joo''s advice and then blinked. It wasn''t long before his eyelids completely closed and Kwon Taek Joo could hear Zhenya''s heavy breathing. Perhaps because of the cold, Kwon Taek Joo''s breathing became more wheezing, and the arms around Kwon Taek Joo''s waist also loosened. Kwon Taek Joo checked the heat again, but it wasn''t boiling enough to have to sit next to it and take care of it. Furthermore, that day he had to go to work and submit a report. He hesitated, then occasionally looked at the clock and left the house very late. Kwon Taek Joo had lunch that day and suddenly had a cough. Yoon Jong Woo sitting across from him opened his eyes wide. "Wow, senior has a cold? Right in the middle of summer?" "What kind of flu? Just a sneeze." "Ah, my arms are full of goosebumps. Lips are also pale." "Why are you turning on the air conditioner here so strongly?" "Is it too strong? But if you don''t open it this much, you won''t be able to breathe because it''s too hot." Kwon Taek Joo was dizzy even though he was eating hot soup. The others were sweating profusely, but he was the only one whose chin was cold. It''s all because of Zhenya. But even so, I don''t know if she''s eating properly. "No way. Eat and then go." "Yes?" "I have to stop by here for a bit." Finally, Kwon Taek Joo stopped eating and went to see Zhenya. He must have been asleep since morning and had been lying alone in bed until then. When he touched his forehead, the slight fever was still there. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the sleeping face for a long time before trying to remove his hand. Zhenya''s head slowly followed. Unconsciously, Zhenya rubbed his forehead against his hand. Not knowing if it was sleep talking or not, he sighed and muttered [Taek Joo] ...Anyway, if this bastard is like a monster then he has to do it to the end. Why does it make people feel so strangely guilty? The fact that Zhenya lived in a foreign land was entirely due to Kwon Taek Joo. He himself is also the only person Zhenya can rely on in Korea over the past year. Even his mother, who is always proud of her friendship with Zhenya, would be just a stranger if it weren''t for Kwon Taek Joo. And it''s also unfair because he himself never wanted that. "What crime did I commit in my previous life?" It wasn''t like someone in the ancestors killed the python that had just become a dragon. If that weren''t the case, then there seems to be no feud as deep as this guy that warrants a nuclear bomb. With that dissatisfied expression, Kwon Taek Joo played with Zhenya''s ivory hair. The sleeping man''s expression became more relaxed. The guy seemed to like his cold hands....Well, anyway. There''s no 2 meter luggage to have to carry like a burden and sometimes bring about this indescribable feeling of debt. That day was the first time Kwon Taek Joo left early since joining the headquarters. Remembering the past, he frowned and scratched his head. "What an unnecessary worry." Chapter 69 - 5.6 Side Story Chapter 69 - 5.6 Side StoryKwon Teak Joo muttered boredly. In general, no news means good news, but Zhenya is an exception. When he was silent, Kwon Taek Joo started to worry about where he was and what he was doing. Even if it''s just a little bit, it''s still worrying. Because Zhenya''s identity is quite sensitive. The Bogdanov family itself has many enemies, and Zhenya is the type of person who likes to make enemies. Not long ago, Zhenya was also "kidnapped'' because of ''Anastasia''. Thinking about it again and again, it''s really impossible to say. That was when Kwon Taek Joo went on a long business trip to China for about a month. But somehow Zhenya didn''t show up all that time. He wondered if Zhenya had heeded his request not to interfere in his work. However, Kwon Taek Joo received a phone call at the end of the mission. The strangers suddenly said that they were holding Zhenya, and if they wanted Zhenya to be safe, they should obediently bring Anastasia. The call ended unilaterally. Kwon Taek Joo blankly looked at the silent phone and then burst out laughing. No comedy is this funny. In all his life, he had never heard anything so absurd. They kidnapped Zhenya, and in exchange for ''Anastasia'' was ''Zhenya''s safe return''. From the beginning, he couldn''t believe that something like this would happen to Zhenya. Even if that''s true. It''s the kidnappers who need to worry, not Zhenya. So Kwon Taek Joo didn''t pay attention. Completing the job safely was his top priority at the time. After completing the mission, Kwon Taek Joo tried calling Zhenya. Don''t pick up the phone. Can''t send messages either. A vague thought appeared in his mind. No way. No matter what, he couldn''t paint a single picture of Zhenya being kidnapped. Kwon Taek Joo repeatedly denied that there was no way that was the case and left to return home. Why is a two-hour flight so long? When Kwon Taek Joo arrived home, even his mother was worried that she hadn''t seen Zhenya. Until then, he still believed that this was not the case and asked Yoon Jong Woo to find the other guy''s whereabouts. With no confirmed exit documents, he frustratedly went to Zhenya''s house. The house is empty. The Bugatti was also quietly parked in the garage. After a while of searching, Kwon Taek Joo found a bottle of soju under the car. Around that time, whenever Zhenya went to the convenience store, he always bought it along with ramen. Are you really caught? That kid''s name? While Kwon Taek Joo was fighting fiercely, the kidnappers sent a photo of Zhenya. The guy was tied to a chair and had his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was sleeping or unconscious. Zhenya''s mouth was sealed and his body chained. The chains were tied from the neck to the wrists and then to the ankles, so it seemed difficult to move. As soon as the unimaginable image became clear, Kwon Taek Joo''s spine suddenly tensed. Even if it was Zhenya, it would be difficult to survive if attacked or drugged. In an instant, it was possible that he was overwhelmed by many people. After making such a trivial assumption, Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even rest and immediately set off. He traveled all the way to Jakarta, Indonesia to find Zhenya. Before that, Kwon Taek Joo stopped by Ajinoki Island for a while to pick up the item that Zhenya gave him, ''Anastasia''. After such a long time traveling, it''s surprising how the heck they managed to drag Zhenya to such a remote place from Korea. Their base is disguised as a parts factory for an international company. Wherever he went in Indonesia, security was tight, and especially there. From the main gate, tight surveillance cameras are installed at each door and wherever you go, you have to face guards armed with heavy weapons. They are all elite agents. After manipulating each person one by one and silently controlling them, Kwon Taek Joo''s physical strength was greatly depleted. He found a secret exit leading to the building''s basement with many guards guarding it. That is the main production site of the factory, if Zhenya was caught it would most likely be there. But for some reason, the hallway there was empty. Except for one room where the access system was operating, other places showed absolutely no trace of humans. Maybe this is a trap. Feeling suspicious, Kwon Taek Joo climbed into the ventilation hole on the ceiling. He carefully crawled through the narrow, dusty passageway and entered the access control room. Trying not to make a sound made his whole body tense, the sweat that had accumulated almost turned into paste along with the dust. There were sparse human sounds as he crawled closer to the room. There were occasional screams or groans, and Kwon Taek Joo sighed in despair as he saw movements below through the grate of the room''s ventilation hole. Zhenya noticed and looked up. He rushed in front of Kwon Taek Joo. [I''m late.] Those were the first words Zhenya uttered. The guy didn''t seem to be injured by even a hair, let alone a finger. Those who claimed to have kidnapped Zhenya were lying everywhere with their heads blown off or their bodies strangely twisted. That was the moment when all the worries about him became useless. [What? Late what?] There is a golden time for violent incidents such as kidnapping. I was almost in danger.] [It seems like the people who captured you are the ones in danger.] [Hmm? This... Anyone can see that this is legitimate defense, right?] Zhenya responded blatantly and then gently twisted the last kidnapper''s neck. The trembling man drooped down with a groan of despair. After cleaning up, the guy looked at Kwon Taek Joo from top to bottom and suddenly smiled. A mocking smile. [What were you doing there that was so dusty? Crawling through the ventilation hole again?] Kwon Taek Joo felt his body temperature drop sharply. He was worried about that bastard and came all the way to this far away place without even resting. Your ability to evaluate things is too bad. [Ha, you''re such an idiot for believing it right away. Did you have fun?] [What fun? I don''t want to be kidnapped either.] [Really? Kidnapped? You? Don''t you follow people on all fours? Is it easy to kidnap someone like me?] What? I was scared because I didn''t know when I would be saved.] The bastard continued to provoke. If I scared him again, maybe even a platoon would disappear. [Say. The threatening phone call telling me to bring Anastasia was also what you asked for, right?] [Why do you speak as if I instigated a kidnapping?] [Otherwise, why was there such a call? Shouldn''t they call the embassy?] [Isn''t it normal to demand ransom from a guardian? The other side got the wrong person, so I''ll just correct it.] [Guardian of an adult child? So are you injured anywhere?] Kwon Taek Joo looked at him with dissatisfied eyes. Zhenya was stunned as if receiving an unfamiliar question. [What injury?] [So, being forced to drink drugs or being tortured...] [Are you worried about me now?l After all, Zhenya''s only strong points are her beautiful face and body. Kwon Taek Joo cleared his throat to regain composure, then he gently tapped his neck. [Why is that area scratched?] [What''s up? If you knew who made the tea, would you scold that person? If I knew this, I should have let them live.] Zhenya looked around regretfully. The bodies were in such bad condition that it was impossible to determine whether they were alive or dead. Bored and don''t want to talk anymore. [Even if you are an immature child, you still have to have moderation. Why are you challenging such a busy person?] [It''s not a challenge. I thought you wouldn''t come.] Zhenya shrugged as if he didn''t expect much [Several days passed without any news so I gave up.] [Ya, you must have been captured somewhere else. Do you know how hard I worked outside while you were having fun here? [If you hadn''t come, I wouldn''t have died. Even though I was alone, Iescaped safely. Even so, I''m getting bored so I think I''ll deal with this guy and leave. And then he came.] Is Zhenya too leisurely? Kwon Taek Joo angrily brushed off his wrinkled shirt. It''s useless. The speckled dirt clung tighter as he slapped his hand against it. Furthermore, even that was ripped apart by Zhenya. The guy did not change his behavior at all and still used other people''s clothes as handkerchiefs to wipe blood and bodily fluids from his hands. Looking at him, Kwon Taek Joo''s mind went blank. [...Sigh... Because of a brat like you, I''m getting older.] It seems like the accumulated fatigue is coming down all at once. Kwon Taek Joo stroked his face and sighed deeply. [But are you really okay?] Right at that moment, even Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand why he was so worried about Zhenya. Even though he knew it was the most useless action in the world. he still kept an eye on him. In any case, Zhenya was still human, so he didn''t know if he had suffered a mental attack or not, because internal injuries were inherently more dangerous than external injuries when exposed to strong shock. And as expected, Zhenya looked puzzled. [What else?] [People who go through really bad things often experience trauma, right? Even the most highly trained agents will be threatened if they are captured and detained or tortured. It can have a big impact later.] Zhenya listened carefully then sighed as if laughing. [You''re unexpectedly overprotective. There''s nothing to worry about. I''m quite used to things like this.] [Are you familiar with it?] For a moment, Kwon Taek Joo thought he had heard wrong. Because he couldn''t immediately realize what "getting used to being kidnapped" meant. [ Was it when you were six years old? It could be a little before or a little later. I''m on my way home after a horse riding lesson. The driver was killed instantly by a bullet flying from somewhere. The car immediately lost direction and crashed into the river. I just swam out of the water but there were already many people waiting there. Then a mask was immediately placed on her head. When I woke up, I was locked in a musty warehouse. Don''t know what they require at home. It could be money, it could be some kind of right, or it could be benefits or power that cannot be measured in money... The more things you have, the more enemies you have, right? Maybe it was evil acts during the crime, or simply because of the greed of those who covet other people''s things. I''m definitely the easiest person to bully in their eyes, because I''m still young. No matter how infamous the family was, they must have thought that the bloodline would be precious. It was a mistake because the Bogdanov family values pride and pride more than mere blood.] Zhenya is someone who likes to express things abstractly, so Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t understand what he was saying. [...What are you talking about?] [That''s just an obvious story. Kidnapped by adults'' wishes and abandoned by adults'' calculations, things didn''t go as expected, so they began to get stressed. She was starved, bullied, and never slept. They gave me a stethoscope so I could cry and beg for help. I have endured it. I don''t want to beg. I didn''t listen to what they wanted but bowed my head and went home to beg for my life.] [The family saw their actions as a challenge to the Bogdanov family and, moreover, to the Kremlin. They wanted to use that as an example, so they started using force to completely wipe them out. They poured artillery shells in as if they forgot I was still in the hands of the kidnappers. Dozens of hundreds of bullets and bombs flew through the walls and ceiling. The heads of those who threatened her were blown off and their limbs S§×arch* The N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. were torn everywhere. Incredible.] Zhenya nonchalantly recalled that moment. How could such a chaotic thing happen to a child only 6 years old? Pitiful. The survivors did not surrender in the end. I''ve been playing with grenades since I was little. Maybe it was the first time. Taking the lives of others with these two hands.] The story is so cruel. At that time, Kwon Taek Joo was about ten years old. The time when he went to school without worrying about anything but just hanging out with friends and playing soccer. He didn''t know how to comfort someone who lived in a completely different world from him. He didn''t expect Zhenya to grow up in a normal environment, but he didn''t know it would come to that. [You don''t need to be sad, Taek Joo. Every family has its own traditions, and everyone adapts or resigns to it. Even though it''s a bit cruel and inhumane, who knows, maybe that''s why the current Bogdanov family exists. People give birth to people, animals give birth to animals. Monsters will give birth to monsters. To not be overlooked among monsters, you must be stronger than anyone else. That''s how I became the person I am today. First it''s my peers, then it''s my adults, then my family, and finally, even the world can''t look down on me. It''s all thanks to Anastasia.] Surely, who would dare to touch a state employee Psych. Even Zhenya''s family couldn''t treat him arbitrarily. Zhenya always lives according to his wishes, but is that good? Olga''s words suddenly appeared in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind: "How long will you live alone?". Kwon Taek Joo looked at Zhenya, he looked lonely and tired because he had never been at peace. [Don''t you think that Anastasia makes you more tired? Like Olga said, why don''t you give it to those who want it? If so, at least there won''t be any trouble like this. These bastards also wanted that, so they kidnapped me. Now I don''t need that anymore, so whether you take it back or leave it, you know how to do it yourself. Anyway, if I can confirm that you''re safe, I''m planning on handing it over to these guys...] [Ah, that''s right. Taek Joo. I gave it to you. He blew one up before. I hid one at my parents'' house and one at Ajinoki. Come to think of it, I did give one to the little woman] (He''s talking about Taek Joo''s mother) Gave "Anastasia" to mom? Kwon Taek Joo''s eyebrows furrowed. [What are you talking about? Why do you keep saying such incomprehensible things?] [I told you, Taek Joo. Anastasia may or may not exist. I''m the only one who can prove it. If what I gave you was called Anastasia, everyone would think it was Anastasia. Also, if you name that pistol over there Anastasia, it will be Anastasia. Anastasia is ultimately in the mind of the person who desires it, and whether it exists or not is up to you. You are the only one who knows this secret.] [What? Is that a lie to preserve life? I thought if that disappeared, something big would happen to you.] While Kwon Taek Joo was angry because he thought he was tricked, Zhenya took a step closer. His face was filled with blue eyes. [Right. Your breath. My weakness. And the secret weapon that makes you the strongest person in the world. Now Anastasia is before your eyes.] The hair on the back of Kwon Taek Joo''s neck stood up. Zhenya is very good at spewing that goosebumps-inducing sound in people''s faces. At such times, the cold, reptile-like eves also become soft with unprecedented warmth. [Taek Joo] [Why. Why are you so close?] [If you come to save the princess trapped in the castle, then that''s the end result isn''t it?] (He''s talking about a princess trapped in a castle and ''the end'' would be a kiss to wake the princess up or something) [Who is the princess? Don''t make fun of me.] Kwon Taek Joo didn''t want to rub his lips like that in a place filled with the smell of blood, but Zhenya showed a pitiful look. [Actually, I was waiting. I tested my patience every day, every hour, every second.] Even though he was determined not to get carried away, Zhenya always opened Kwon Taek Joo''s latch with absurd ease. It was strange that he couldn''t act strong when looking at that gentle face. It''s all just a mask, just a trick like a fox trying to trick you. No matter how you think about it, it doesn''t mean anything. [..Damned. Come here, Yevgeny.] (He''s getting babied right now hahah) [Taek Joo, my Rabbit.] So, that face is very... "Argh!" Kwon Taek Joo shivered as soon as he remembered the memory of kissing in a place where corpses were scattered. He scratched his head in frustration. Or is it because the inside is soft that the brain is also soft? He didn''t know if Zhenya''s madness was contagious or not. Kwon Taek Joo couldn''t say his life was always peaceful anywhere, but after getting entangled with Zhenya he really didn''t have a good day. It''s not that he doesn''t know what kind of person Zhenya is, but it''s also his fault for holding such a bomb. Chapter 70 - 5.7 Side Story Chapter 70 - 5.7 Side StoryKwon Taek Joo picked up the phone he threw away. Open source. The list of incoming calls is displayed on the screen. No calls or messages from Zhenya. He carefully checked each phone number. phone number as a precaution, but did not see the phone number of "Do not display caller identity". At least not like the time Zhenya was kidnapped. Kwon Taek Joo tapped his phone thinking before calling somewhere. Call connection rang twice then picked up. The voice on the other end of the second rang out. -hello? The main character with a somewhat awkward voice is none other than Yoon Jong Woo. "Yoon Jong Woo, what are you doing?" -What am I doing? I''m working very hard. "Are you busy?" - From now on I will be very busy. Yoon Jong Woo is afraid of getting into trouble. He was only obedient when he first arrived as an assistant shooter, but now he has grown up a lot. Of course, nothing has changed though. "Don''t be like that, do me a favor." -I don''t know what it is, but please do it yourself. I''ve been resting lately so I''m very comfortable. "If I could do it, I would have done it early. Why do I have to say these things to you?" There was no answer from Kwon Taek Joo''s sarcastic question, instead there was just a grumble from far away from the receiver. "Yoon Jong Woo?" Kwon Taek Joo spoke up. Only to hear the hum again, "Hmm." Let''s hear what''s going on first. "Yevgeny Vysarionovich Bogdanov. Do you know?" -What''s wrong with that person? "Why are you stuttering like that? Is he a ghost? -Are you kidding? I don''t think there is any difference. "Okay. Find out where he is." -...Yes?? Now you''re asking to investigate civilians? That''s a very sensitive issue, senior. He jumped up. The scream almost made Kwon Taek Joo''s ears fall off. Yoon Jong Woo is often surprised and scared but he still tries to join NIS. Is his ability that outstanding? Kwon Taek Joo sighed. "Do you think that bastard looks like a commoner?" -No, I mean... No... Not that... After all, he is a diplomat. If you dig up mistakes, it could become a diplomatic issue... "There will be no such thing and if it does happen, I will be responsible so let''s find out where he is. I didn''t ask you to arrest that bastard." This time, Yoon Jong Woo also took his phone away and mumbled something. "I heard it all." He was startled and explained that he didn''t say anything. Kwon Taek Joo laughed menacingly. -Really, this is the last time. "Alright. Check it out now and call me." Hanging up. Kwon Taek Joo just wanted to check if Zhenya had entered Russia and if so, whether he was still there or not. He has tried to live a life that clearly distinguishes between work and private life. But when living with Zhenya, that boundary begins to collapse. Kwon Taek Joo cannot rest assured even for a moment because Zhenya has no limits and often causes trouble. He himself decided to accept and tame Zhenya when he settled in Korea, which means Zhenya''s troubles are also Kwon Taek Joo''s troubles. The phone rang again not long after. He reflexively grabbed it and checked the caller first. Still not Zhenya. Ah, Kwon Taek Joo received the call. Yoon Jong Woo''s report rang out. -Senior, Yevgeny Vissarionovich Bogdanov is confirmed to have entered Russia. 2 weeks ago. "What now? No records of exit from Russia or transfer to a third country?" -Yes. None. So Zhenya only stayed in Russia for the past 2 weeks. The answer that to some extent Kwon Taek Joo had expected, but for some reason his arms and legs were hanging loose. "I understand." he was about to end the call. Yoon Jong Woo''s voice was urgent. - Senior, please don''t forget what I said just now. "A moment ago? What have I said?" -He said that if anything happened, he would take responsibility. I''m just a pitiful subordinate who succumbed to authority. "Alright. Back to work." He laughed. Yoon Jong Woo finished speaking, "Bogdanov, please talk to that person like that too." After all, being an employee of the National Intelligence Agency is scary. End call. The surroundings became quiet again. Kwon Taek Joo looked at the phone bewilderedly and tried calling Zhenya. Still no answer. "Hey. I don''t know. That bastard is not a child either." He threw the phone away and ruffled his hair uncomfortably. ¡ª¡ª The ground shook. Bang bang bang. Kwon Taek Joo could not stand up straight every time the vibration changed. Everywhere was dark and everywhere was the smell of damp earth. Not long after, the ground shook with a loud bang. Mixed screaming The people around him were blurry with unclear shapes. The language they speak is similar to Korean, English, and Russian. Thinking it was a dream, Kwon Taek Joo tried going a little further. He couldn''t see anything as far as he could see, so he had no choice but to move forward until he came across a wall. Then the walls and ceiling shook again, followed by broken stone powder pouring down. S§×arch* The N?velFire.n§×t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Kwon Taek Joo cowered out of habit. but small fragments still entered his eyes, nose and ears. He was out of breath. He shook his head vigorously and brushed the foreign object away, then waved his hand to clear the dusty air in front of him. When Kwon Taek Joo was about to take another step, his foot stepped on something soft. He almost fell over but he kept his balance. Reflexively raising his head, Kwon Taek Joo saw an unexpected figure. It was a boy about six or seven years old. Left alone in a dungeon-like place with no light, the child had silver hair and blue eyes. The image was similar to many dreams he had encountered before. Why did that kid appear like that? Kwon Taek Joo frowned. Of course there''s no guarantee who that baby is even though he looks a lot like someone Kwon Taek Joo knows well, but it''s difficult to be sure. Kwon Taek Joo has not yet confirmed Zhenya''s childhood photo but he still thinks it would be Zhenya if there was proper evidence. Up until now, the dream has become intense every time the child appears. The boy did not cause any particular harm to Kwon Taek Joo himself, but every time he woke up he always felt confused and strangely guilty. It had been a while since he had dreamed of the boy so he felt somewhat relieved, but now it appeared like this. The child saw Kwon Taek Joo and raised his guard and backed away. There was something in the small white hand, looking like a grenade. Thinking back, he stepped on something just now. Kwon Taek Joo slowly looked back. In places as far as the eye could reach, scattered pieces of flesh had lost their human shape. Even seemingly normal people were groaning under the collapsed pillar. The insecurity came again. Kwon Taek Joo frantically looked around but nothing came into view. Outside the square blue window. something like the shadow of a fighter plane flashed past. Gunfire also rang out. Red laser beams emitted from various guns instantly covered the space and floor. The warning to surrender echoed from afar. Suddenly, Kwon Taek Joo remembered the childhood anecdote that Zhenya had told him. He said he was used to being kidnapped? It seemed that the afterimages of that time had passed through the subconscious and appeared like a dream. The problem is that Kwon Taek Joo cannot wake up even though he knows this is a dream. A crazy dream. He looked everywhere for a way out. At that moment, a shock stronger than ever exploded throughout the building. The ground shook violently. Even the ceiling could not bear it and collapsed. If this continues, everything will be buried in hopelessness. It was all so vivid that the perception of the dream faded away. The only thought in Kwon Taek Joo''s mind was to quickly escape. He turned his head towards the silver-haired boy. The child was still glaring at Kwon Taek Joo with sharp eyes. He waved to the boy to come quickly, but the child didn''t even move and just looked at him warily. Zhenya! He tried to scream but his throat was choked. Kwon Taek Joo tried opening his mouth wide and putting strength into his stomach, but all sounds seemed to disappear into nothingness. While the ruthless attack continued, the building began to rapidly collapse. Kwon Taek Joo ran to the child and tried to pull him out. But even that is not easy. As if a transparent barrier had been placed in front of him. Kwon Taek Joo could not take another step forward. Even if he ran until it hurt. Kwon Taek Joo could not get close to the child. He continued to call Zhenya, his mouth opening and closing. But the child just stared blankly as if facing a strange scene. Damn it, run away! His arms and legs struggled until they were numb. An urgent cry choked in his throat. He felt so frustrated that he went crazy. As if teasing Kwon Taek Joo, something heavy blew in the wind from behind. There was silence inside the building. And just then, the condensed air exploded and tore the child apart. His whole body was as hot as fire. ¡ª¡ª "Oh my God!" Kwon Taek Joo jumped up. His vision opened in an instant, making him dizzy. His eyes opened wide. He didn''t blink for a while, his eyelids even trembled. "Haha..." The breath he had been trying to endure escaped him. His lungs ached. His heart was pounding like it was about to explode in his chest. His throat was dry as if he had been screaming the whole time. Kwon Taek Joo just breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that it was all just a dream. He slowly stroked his face. His trembling palms quickly became wet. Looking back, it wasn''t such a terrible nightmare that it made him shudder. To be more precise, there were times when Kwon Taek Joo lived a much crueler reality. Even so, the feeling of discomfort and frustration has not diminished. After all, where did the child come from, and why did he appear like that and cause a stir? It''s not like anything really happened to Zhenya. Even though he denied that there was no way that would be the case, his heart sank. Kwon Taek Joo confusedly scratched the back of his neck and grabbed the phone. He still hadn''t heard anything from Zhenya. He tried calling right away but this time he couldn''t even hear the ringback tone. It was as if the phone had been turned off. "Where is this kid going?" If it''s late, it''s too late. It''s difficult to know if something unexpected has really happened, unless you face the inevitable situations directly. Furthermore, Kwon Taek Joo himself never made it clear to Zhenya where he was going, what he was doing, and when he would return. That was the NIS''s work regulations, but he didn''t feel the need to do so, and because he also knew that Zhenya still followed and came to see him like a ghost wherever he went. It''s not often that he makes a private meeting with Zhenya, sending messages or calling can be counted on the fingers of one hand. "Who doesn''t have a conscience towards anyone?" Suddenly questioning myself. Kwon Taek Joo scratched the back of his neck and checked the time. It''s past 7 am. Looks like there''s someone outside the door. His mother seemed to be preparing breakfast. Kwon Taek Joo stood up and went out. Seeing him wake up early, his mother asked with a surprised face. "Don''t you go to work until next Monday?" "Yes. But if you think too long, it will be difficult to work right away. I want to go out for a bit to grasp the work situation." "Uh. Mom will prepare some food, eat and then go." "Ah, I don''t eat breakfast." "You should not let fasting become a habit. How can I work properly on an empty stomach?" "If you go to work now, it''ll be almost lunch time" "Huh, will I be young forever? Debt piles up on your body when you''re young, and when you''re older, you''ll have to pay it back many times over. You''re not too young anymore, so you have to take care of your health. Nowadays, people say that illness does not discriminate by age, so you should go for a checkup regularly..." "Yes.. I know. Is this beef stew soup? It smells so good." Kwon Taek Joo quickly interrupted his mother''s presentation that was about to begin and rushed into the bathroom, Until the door closed, his mother still diligently recounted the medical history of her parents'' family, starting with the story of her friend''s son having a stroke due to a brain hemorrhage. He could guess the backstory even without hearing everything. Which foods are good for which organs, which ingredients are attracting attention today, how harmful is drinking alcohol and smoking to the body. From when he was a child until now, his mother''s interests and hobbies have not changed. The nagging repertoire also remains consistent. After a quick shower. Kwon Taek Joo sat down at the table. There were so many side dishes that he couldn''t find an empty spot on the table. He picked up the spoon and said, "I will eat well." Except for kimchi there are no old dishes. Thinking of that sincerity, Kwon Taek Joo tried each dish and the bowl of rice quickly emptied. His mother said "Look" while scooping up more rice. This is the happiest time of her day. "Does the embassy have a lot of work these days?" "If so, how can I rest like this? "Really?I don''t know if the ambassador is very busy because I haven''t seen him come home." Kwon Taek Joo''s chopsticks stopped. Because Zhenya was suddenly mentioned. The food in my mouth almost choked. He could barely swallow what was in his mouth and drink water. His mother continued to worry about Zhenya. "Mom was worried about what happened because his phone didn''t call. He lives alone in a country where it''s impossible to talk, so if there''s an emergency he won''t be able to ask for help." "Mom is also real. Is he a child? He also received leave like you and returned home to rest. So mom, there''s no need to worry." Kwon Taek Joo responded indifferently. His mother seemed surprised. "Hey! No matter how young he is, he is still your superior, even if he is not here, how can you talk like that as an equal?" He opened his mouth to explain but then stopped, because there was no effective excuse. "...No, we''re just trying to talk comfortably to each other." "Talking like that will easily become a habit, then in important situations you will make mistakes. Don''t you know how old you are? You really don''t know how to think." His mother clicked her tongue in disapproval. Kwon Taek Joo tearfully picked up a piece of fish and placed it on top of the rice. Since meeting Zhenya, the frequency with which he was scolded by his mother seemed to increase. It''s not really the guy''s fault, but it''s not entirely none of it either. His mother definitely wouldn''t have been so supportive if she knew what Zhenya did to her only son. It''s unfair, but I can''t reveal the details of what happened. All he could do was eat and nonchalantly regret what he had done wrong. Kwon Taek Joo was about to leave after getting ready when his mother brought up something. "Take this too." "What is this?" "If you were going to work, wouldn''t the ambassador have come back too? He eats so little that it must be difficult. Mom has prepared something he likes." "How did it come to this? I told you there''s no need to do that, Mom." "I don''t have any feelings. A young man has to live alone without family because of his job. If you can help him, you should help him." Kwon Taek Joo and Zhenya were close but he didn''t think about it this much. His mother''s weakness towards Zhenya''s bright appearance was probably due to the influence of her motherly instinct. Not long ago, his mother said that Zhenya looked like an angel when sleeping and Kwon Taek Joo spit out the coffee he was drinking. He didn''t know what to do when facing his mother''s innocent and pure eyes every time she looked at him. "Shut your mouth and do as I say. I also often travel for work so I know better. If we live outside for a long time, everyone becomes lonely, depressed and sad. Furthermore, the ambassador didn''t know Korean so he couldn''t communicate. How frustrating it would be to have no friends and be far from family. You should also regularly keep an eye on him. I mean, don''t leave him and think of him as your little brother." Strangely, even his mother realized that Zhenya had no friends. Kwon Taek Joo also wondered how his mother was so fascinated by that guy. Even when his mother prayed day and night for his father and brother, she did not have blind faith like she does now. What would happen if the mother found out about his relationship with that brat? Just imagining it gave him goosebumps. A subtle feeling of guilt crept into his chest. "I''m leaving." Kwon Taek Joo calmly received the box and hurried out of the house. He stopped by Zhenya''s house before going to work. The visit was without any great expectations. Kwon Taek Joo was just trying to handle the boxes his mother delivered. But when he saw the empty house, Kwon Taek Joo felt empty. There was no trace of anyone in the house. The bed sheets as well as the position of objects in the house have not changed since his visit a few days ago. The house was so quiet it was cold. Kwon Taek Joo went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. There''s nothing to eat. He put the boxes in the empty space without leaving any special note, maybe one day Zhenya will come back and he will know it himself. Kwon Taek Joo slowly looked around the house again. This is a place where a person has lived for 1 year, how can he not have this feeling of living? Aside from bathroom items, wine, bed sheets and unlabeled clothing, there was nothing that could be called Zhenya. There is not even a regular washing machine in the house. He didn''t know if Zhenya was leaving all his laundry to the laundromat or because he had so much money that he was throwing away all the things he only wore once. Kwon Taek Joo opened the cupboard but it was also full of dust. Pulling out the large drawer at the bottom, many types of ramen are stacked one after another. Zhenya only cooks ramen for him so Kwon Taek Joo never touches ramen anywhere else. He also couldn''t tell Zhenya to stop because he would frown again. "...I don''t like ramen." Kwon Taek Joo lamented and closed the drawer. There''s no food for Zhenya anywhere. Even when he was here, Zhenya only occasionally bought cheese, bread, and fruit. That also means he doesn''t like Korean food. Kwon Taek Joo really doesn''t know what Zhenya does when he''s not here. He went into the bedroom for a moment. Kwon Taek Joo remembers how shocked he was when he first arrived at this house. The body is so large that it seems that commercially available mattresses cannot fit it. So Zhenya''s custom-made bed took up most of the large room. It is said that it is a super king size bed. Not necessarily not. Kwon Taek Joo really rolled on it. To the extent that there wasn''t a position he hadn''t tried before. Even after a year of turmoil, not a single corner of the bed was lost. Isn''t this a quality product that needs to be recognized? Kwon Taek Joo sat on the bed for a while. The mattress supports the body firmly. I thought about a lot of things that happened in the past year. How all memories seem to lead to sex. It''s not an exaggeration, but the truth is that he is always physically attached to Zhenya in this house. It is said that when God created humans. Everything had a reason. It seems he gave Zhenya the mission of breeding the species by giving him a giant penis, an overflowing sexual desire, and an outstanding body. If it weren''t for that, Zhenya wouldn''t have been so filled with desire, even in the golden age of his life. Even Kwon Taek Joo, who is healthy and has good physical strength, cannot stand him because Zhenya always rushes in as soon as the two just make eye contact. It would be quick to count the number of days that he wouldn''t faint after making love. I don''t know, but if you two were a newlywed couple, a set of triplets would have been born. It must have been a time of lust. A year has passed like that. Even if it had been that long, the time to decide Zhenya''s heart had passed. Zhenya was still completely unchanged that Kwon Taek Joo didn''t even notice the passage of time. Meanwhile, he got used to his mother worrying about him, spending time in random conversations between the two of them, spending time with Zhenya after work or on holidays, and seeing Zhenya appear. everywhere. It has become a very normal daily habit. That''s also why Kwon Taek Joo doesn''t think that one day it could end, that everything could return to its original place. When the beginning is sudden, the ending can be just as sudden. The reason why Zhenya suddenly came to Korea is because of Kwon Taek Joo. That means he can leave this place whenever Zhenya is no longer there for him. [I hope to live there all my life.] Every word Zhenya said still bothered him like a thorn in his heart.
