Colorful. Only the faint, feeble sound of breathing filled the vast space. Perhaps it was the irregular routine, or the imprisonment without a single ray of sunlight. Unable to tell whether the sun was rising or setting outside, the heroine endured, relying on a single, dim light, closer than sunlight.
I don't even know how many days have passed since I last saw Jeongguk. I just miss my teammates. Thoughts of them stirred my emotions, but I couldn't bring myself to shed the tears that had dried up.
"...."
Are you eating well? Are you receiving guidance? Her teammates always came first in her mind. Even when she was on the edge of life and death with a knife in her stomach, even when she was unconscious due to a rampage, the woman's mind was always on her.
Min Yoongi. Kim Namjoon. Jung Hoseok. Jeon Jungkook.
These came first.
"... My lady."
"...!"
The upper body, which had been limp and limp, quickly leaped upward. Far away, outside the prison, a familiar, nostalgic face shone. "Yeojuya." "Haejuya." The more the names were repeated, the more urgent the Yeoju's steps became. "Thud." Her palm touched the holographic wall.
"You, why are you so thin?"
"Hoseok, Hoseok."
"...Yeah. I'm here."
"Hoseok, ah..."
It was different. No, it was different.
Hoseok's gaze was different from everyone else's.Resentment. Hatred. Instead of the emptiness and loss visible between them, a repetition of worry. Yeo-ju nodded and clapped her hands as Ho-seok called her name with trembling lips.
"I'm gathering evidence right now?"
"...."
"Just wait a minute, just wait a minute and I'll get it out of there."
"...."
"So please."
Alive. You have to come out healthy. Okay?
The woman smiled sadly at the warm, long-awaited gesture. Hoseok pressed his forehead against the wall, muttered a few words of concern, then turned and walked back the way he'd come.
"...."
Lady, stay healthy.
Yes, that's right.
We'll take you in.
"You must bring him in the best condition and health."
"That's your first mission."
Just, just a little bit of hurt.
It's okay if it hurts a little.
"... brother."
"why."
"... i miss you."
"...."
"I've been ignoring you so much, I miss you so much."
The atmosphere in the dorm was completely subdued. Even without saying who it was, everyone knew who it was. Someone you couldn't hate, even if you should. Someone you pushed away with ill feelings, but eventually found yourself drawn back. Someone who helped you move faster through life's longest tunnel.
Just as the presence of someone who wanted to do something for everyone was deep, the depth of the wound cut by the knife of betrayal was also deep, and before it could heal, they were busy applying the wrong medicine called resentment.
"The exterior,"
"...."
"Who did it first?"
Hoseok's chilled voice filled the dorm. But his face was filled with a smile. He smiled and tapped the nib of the pen in front of him. Once, twice. One day, two days. ... Seven times. A week.
"The heroine was taken away."
"...what?"
"He was taken away because of malnutrition."
"...."
"Namjoon."
"What are you doing up there? Should I go find it?"
Well, do you have the right to do that?
The time it takes for Sentinel to recover is one week.
"Go ahead. The heroine will really like it."
Everything must be turned on within this time.
Hoseok rose from his chair, slowly walked over to Namjoon, who stood tall, and handed him the pen he had been holding. His eyes were consumed by longing. How could they be so similar to hers? But he didn't like those eyes. Eyes that should have been filled with loathing rather than longing. Eyes that needed to be transformed.
"Yeoju, do you know what he said to me while being carried away?" Hoseok raised his head to meet Namjoon's eyes, but Namjoon avoided his gaze. It was natural. Hoseok's ability was shiver. No one could meet his eyes. Except Yeoju. Perhaps because of that, Hoseok was very good at hiding his lies.
"Please give me more information."
"...."
"You're on my side. Just give me a little more information about our team."
lie.
"... crazy bitch."
Even though it's a blatant lie.
Because of that ability, I am fooled.
"It was all real in the end."
Powerless.
"...."
Those idiots were so easy to fool.
In 7 years.
That's enough, my lady.
This bustling place. It was a secret anti-government den unknown to anyone. While the number of Sentinels and Guides at the center was smaller, only those with a rank of A or higher existed. After receiving a message titled "Code: J," people wearing white masks moved about, checking the female protagonist's identity.
The female protagonist's personal information was displayed on a large monitor. From her basic name to her date of birth and physical information. Next to it, information about her team members was listed.
"...Call the copy."
The man who had been controlling everything in the middle of the monitor called out to the copy. The woman standing next to him nodded slightly, then turned and left the room. Soon after, a man wearing a white mask gave a brief, dry nod.
"S-class copy."
"...."
"You are the most important in this operation."
"Yes, I know."
"Prepare everything you can in a week. Copy... no."
"...."
taehyoung kim.
I'll look forward to it.
"It's been a while since I've seen a main character."
"...."
"Hey. Just kidding."
This kid doesn't know how to play. Taehyung, his white mask pushed to one side, looked down at Jimin with a murderous gaze at his words about the protagonist. He quickly averted his gaze and mentally replayed the photo from earlier.
I'm used to it.
"okay."
It feels so familiar, like I've seen it somewhere.
"Wow, this team is no joke. Just looking at the line, it's like they're our special team."
At Seokjin's voice, Taehyung's gaze naturally shifted. The team members he hadn't noticed just now. Kim Namjoon. Min Yoongi. Jeon Jungkook.
Oh yeah, Jeon Jungkook.
He saw the future.
Knowing the source of the familiarity, he unhesitatingly lifted his gaze from the team member list. Then, he slumped limply on the bed, covering his eyes with his hand.
Ah, this is annoying.
With those last words he fell asleep.
