Ja-kyung was speechless as he smoked a cigarette and checked his breasts in the mirror. Even after two days, the red marks could still be seen here and there. Because of how many times Il-hyun bit and sucked his nipples, the size of his nipples appeared to have changed slightly. Kang Il-hyun had a strong obsession with nipples, possibly because he grew up not feeling loved by his mother. When Ja-kyung touched it, he felt tingling and pain, and he cursed.
“As long as I’ve lived, I’ve never seen such a man…”
That was all. At first, even if he said that he was reluctant, later he moaned and moved his waist. He even wrapped his legs around Kang Il-hyun’s body. His mind should be lighter when he checked the whereabouts of the object, but thinking about it, it was impossible.
Kang Il-hyun was busy after that day and didn’t show up for two days. Ja-kyung felt relieved that he had been fortunate. He sent a picture to Wang Han, requesting the same USB so that once the issue was resolved, he could rest easy. He hoped that there would be no more body entanglement until then.
It was hot inside the house when he came out of the bedroom. All of the air conditioners were shut down. A vehicle that came to work on the swimming pool collided with a nearby electric pole and the power was cut. He went downstairs and stood in front of the living room window. Outside, the workers were busy working.
There were no signs of bullets piercing the windows. The bullet was a 338 Lapua Magnum intended for sniper use. It was used by snipers due to its low tolerance and fast bullet speed. The morning of that day was not even windy, and the sky was clear with not a single cloud in the sky, making it ideal for aiming at the target. However, the bullet was aimed at Ja-kyung’s right shoulder, not his left chest.
Ja-kyung didn’t think it was a mistake. Perhaps that person intended to harm Zhang Yi An. Zhang Yi An was the only grandson of Zhang Yin, the godfather of a Hong Kong organization with ties to the shipping group. And if Zhang Yi An was hurt, Kang Il-hyun, who was now protecting him, would face difficulty.
He wondered who had given the order. He remembered the faces of the family members he saw at the Chairman’s house one by one.
“Yi An!”
After some thought, he heard a familiar voice behind his back. When he turned around, Kang Seok-joo waved his hand and approached him. Ja-kyung received a call in the morning and stated that he would be unable to leave the house for some time, so Seok-joo came to the house immediately.
“Is it here? But there’s no bullet mark?”
Kang Seok-joo, who approached, smiled as he looked through the window. Ja-kyung could only guess why he had come.
“You look very happy.”
“Not happy. I’m dissapointed.”
He turned around to make sure no one was there and lowered his voice.
“Director Kang should have been shot.”
Ja-kyung chuckled. Seok-joo seemed to be at ease with himself by saying things like that casually. He was much more energetic than he remembered seeing at home. After all, it was difficult to survive among brothers like hyenas.
Ja-kyung and Seok-joo moved upstairs after asking the staff for a car. Then, in private, he asked about Choi Ki-tae’s well-being.
“Ki-tae? That bastard must be going crazy now.”
“Why?”
Kang Seok-joo leaned on the sofa on the second floor and proudly crossed his legs.
“His father is a drug dealer. You know that drug? The one we took last time.”
“Yeah.”
“But then there this employee. After all, this employee took the working kids.”
“Employee? Who?”
“I’m not sure. They’re minors so that employee must have taken them to the police station and ran. But then they got a call from the police. To take the kids.”
Ja-kyung hardened his face as he listened. His tight jaw was clenched and his eyes were on the verge of bursting.
“You said… minors? Weren’t they taken to the shelter?”
“You’re so naive. They are kids with nowhere to go. Because his father knew a lot of powerful people, they called him right away to take the kids. That’s why you need power. Even the police are powerless in the face of money and power.”
Kang Seok-joo laughed arrogantly and proudly as if he were at the top of power. Ja-kyung was at a loss for words. The children’s eyes that stared at him come to mind.
“What happened to them? Are they working… again?”
“How can you trust kids who ran away? They’ll be dealt with.”
“Dealt?”
“You don’t need to know.”
Kang Seok-joo laughed it off without further explanation. Ja-kyung knew what it was. He remembered hearing a story as a child. It was said that useless children’s organs were taken or used as sexual tools for adults. Alternatively, a man who was visiting his mother told him that he would become dog food.
Ja-kyung initially thought it was a joke, but when he found a child hand his age who was working with him rolling around in the dog kennel, he realized it was real. On the other hand, he had nightmares for a long time due to his fear of becoming dog food.
Ja-kyung’s eyes, which were recalling old memories, became cold. He should have sent them somewhere other than the police in the first place. No, he should have pretended not to know from the beginning. He shouldn’t have driven the already miserable kids into their death.
Fuck. He got up from his seat.
“What. Where are you going?”
“I’m sorry. I have a bad headache, so I think I need to get some sleep today.”
Kang Seok-joo got up from his seat and was annoyed.
“What. Then what do I do?”
“I can’t go out for a while anyway. You know that. I’m so sorry.”
Ja-kyung smiled at him and hurriedly into the bedroom. When Seok-joo was left alone, he pouted and cursed to himself. The unit price would be great if the customer was important. He was irritated that he had to come for him, and Ja-kyung then left him to sleep because he was sick. He kicked the leg of the table with his foot, closed the door, and walked out.
Ja-kyung walked back and forth in the bedroom while smoking an electronic cigarette. He became irritated and rubbed his face. He opened the safe, took a piece of paper from it, and unfolded it. It was a location in the house where CCTV was installed. He placed the paper in the safe under the bed after checking the exact location with his eyes and memorizing it.
He then took a small flashlight and an iron rod from the safe and hid them in his clothes. Ja-kyung went downstairs and found the housekeeper. She was preparing dinner for tonight with the staff in the kitchen.
“Yi An. What’s the matter?”
“It’s quite noisy outside. How long will it take to set up the swimming pool?”
“They’re finishing up right now. The electricity will be turned on soon.”
“There doesn’t appear to be any emergency power here…”
“Yes. This is the first time this has occurred since the house was built… I was perplexed as well.”
“I see… Actually, I’m not sure I’ll be able to eat dinner because I’m sick. I’m going to take some medicine and go to bed.”
“Oh, my. Do you want me to make you some soup?”
“No, it’s fine. When you’re sick, it’s best to get plenty of rest. Please inform the Director if he is looking for me.”
He added that once he fell asleep, no one should disturb him. That meant not to look for him even if Kang Il-hyun came. She smiled and replied that she understood.
“If you need anything, please feel free to contact me downstairs.”
“Yes, thank you.”
After saying his gratitude, Ja-kyung went upstairs. He entered the bedroom, closed the door, and lowered all of the curtains. He went to the bathroom after putting a blanket on the pillow and making it appear as if someone was lying down. The windowless bathroom was pitch black when the door was shut.
After turning on the flashlight, he climbed up to the bathroom railing and removed the ventilator. He checked the passage with the flashlight, and it was quite narrow. Before leaving, he thought it would be fun to see if he could get stuck in the passage and die. He threw the flashlight inside and used his arm strength to climb up.
He crawled forward and lifted his lower body. The thick layer of dust tickled his nose and made him want to sneeze. He put the flashlight in his mouth and moved forward slowly, holding his breath as much as he could. Sweat poured like rain as he squirmed and moved like a caterpillar in a narrow ventilation hole in hot weather.
Fortunately, the passage that curves to the right was much wider. Breathing a sigh of relief, he curled up and moved forward. Sweat ran down his face, stinging his eyes. After a while of crawling, light poured in from the front. The large ventilator fan had stopped functioning. He pulled the fan out and pushed his face out.
He took a deep breath and breathed in some fresh air. Apart from the power outage, the cameras on either side of the vents were functional. Damn it. He knew it. He drew out an iron rod about the width of his waist and pressed the button.
The rod’s length gradually increased. He stretched his arm, touched the CCTV with the tip of the stick, and changed the directions. The other side received the same treatment. Then he dangled himself from the railing as far as he could, jumped down, and rolled himself.
He leaned against the building’s outer wall, lowered himself, and looked around to see if there was anywhere he could go outside. Fortunately, there were few cameras around, and when he turned around the corner, the camera was unable to capture him. Furthermore, it was all covered in rose vines.
Ja-kyung took a long, deep breath as he looked at the wall in front of him. It was high, but he thought he could climb it. He ran, jumped, grabbed the wall with his hands, and climbed it with his feet. He hadn’t exercised in a few days and had been playing and eating peacefully, and his body seemed to be the first to notice.
He felt that his movements were slower than usual. He climbed and jumped to the other side. He looked around, but everything was quiet. All he could see were people working on the construction of a utility pole in the distance. Ja-kyung stepped back from the wall and rolled beneath the van in which the workers who had come to build the swimming pool were riding.
After a while, with the sound of the door opening, people came out one by one. Staff voices could also be heard. He could hear everything about the construction period and the electricity. The car door opened and closed, and the engine began to turn on. The car moved, and Ja-kyung who had crawled down beneath it disappeared as well.
Ja-kyung was speechless as he smoked a cigarette and checked his breasts in the mirror. Even after two days, the red marks could still be seen here and there. Because of how many times Il-hyun bit and sucked his nipples, the size of his nipples appeared to have changed slightly.
