— I was nervous. Thank you for telling me I'm a good person.
— What, how did you know?
— Your watch was on? That's why I overheard.
— Ah... I made a good statement, right?
— Well then. Fortunately, your statement is the same as mine, so that's a blessing.
— Really? What did you say?
"I did the same thing. The moment I saw you, I heard gunshots from inside and the boss was dead. Then I left him at the house of a friend you knew and reported it. Anyway, the other killers wouldn't say anything because they didn't know it was murder.
— Really? Oh... I'm sorry...
- what?
— I'm sorry for disobeying you and acting on my own. And for swearing at you.
— ‘Then, you should be sorry.’ J asked me to tell him?
— Oh, huh?
— Well, I would have done the same thing. Don't feel guilty, just think it's all right. Your father's death was properly revealed, just as you wanted. Everything worked out as you wanted.
— That's true···.
— Hurry up and drive for a while. J-hyung said he bought some dessert to cheer you up.
K ran ahead, telling me to hurry up, and I felt a little better, so I ran after him. J had indeed bought dessert for me in the car. It was a bit tough, but now I feel like I can finally relax a little.
.
— But there are some things you need to be scolded for.
- what···.
— Who brought the hideout gun without saying anything?
— Hey, Ms. Yeoju must be reflecting on herself too.
— I’m sorry… It’s not that I didn’t trust you, but just in case… I brought it in case something dangerous happened, but I’m really sorry for taking it without telling you.
— I didn't mean to be so sorry... Don't do that again.
- okay.
— Miss Yeoju, how about those cookies? They're delicious.
— Yes, it's delicious.
— It's really delicious, isn't it? Smile, now. I miss your energetic appearance, Yeoju.
— Actually, I thought I felt more at ease, but I don't think I really felt that way. It's all over, so why don't I feel relieved? Was it really right to kill him?
— But know this. If Yeoju hadn't intervened first, Yeoju would have died. Yeoju protected herself, and in a way, she protected her father.
— That's right... I almost died.
— Hey, shall we go to the beach?
- ocean···?
— Go get some fresh air and blow off some steam. I don't like seeing you like this. Why don't you hurry back and get angry and swear again?
— Hey...! I told you I was sorry!
— Yeah, I think you'd rather be like this than dead.
— What? LOL
— I'm finally laughing. How could you not go to the sea?
— Let's go!
I could see him teasing me to lighten my mood. It hadn't been long since I'd known K, but he was so different from my initial impression. Just like J said, he was gentle and kind. I finally understood. He was a kind person. Hmm... I guess he was right. Now, my mind was really at ease, and my tension was lifted, and I fell asleep in the car without realizing it. I don't usually fall asleep when someone drives next to me, but I guess I had a hard time.
Some time had passed, and when I opened my eyes, I was alone in the car. I turned my head to see K and J talking right outside next to me. Their expressions looked quite serious. I pretended to sleep again and opened the window slightly to eavesdrop.
— It's obvious that I'll find the heroine again.
— Then let’s keep Yeoju-ssi. It’s true that we’d feel uneasy if we let her go.
"You want to keep me a little longer? Why..."
— What should I do with that bastard Min Yoongi… Should I kill him?
- no!!
Without me knowing"no!!"He said loudly. Now, I think the word "kill" scared me a little. K and J were both startled by the sudden shout. Min Yoongi, and you're looking for me again? After listening to him, I could tell he was talking about the guy who jumped in at the practice room earlier, trying to kill me. I got out of the car.
— What, when did you wake up?
— Miss Yeoju, were you listening to everything?
— Don't kill. Don't kill. Don't kill anyone anymore.
— You're not going to live with us your whole life. That bastard will definitely look for you. After seeing you once.
— But...! Don't kill me. And you, Mr. J, don't have to protect me anymore. I'm no longer a killer, so you're no longer a killer.
— Please do it···.
—Stop killing people. Please.
—Killing, yes. I won't do it. But let me protect you. We'd be just unemployed if we didn't have to protect you.
—You can just find something else to do.
— Anyway, we don’t intend to do that, so just know that.
— Mr. J... do you feel the same way?
— I have no authority. If K wants to do something, I'll do it. Besides, if I'm not protecting Yeoju, where else would I use my work?
These people didn't seem like they'd listen to me. I figured it was best for me to just continue on my original path. I figured I could now protect myself, no matter who tried to kill me. Even I could tell I'd suddenly become quite sensitive, but there was nothing I could do about it. I no longer want to hurt or harm anyone. I just want to live like normal people.
—Okay, then do whatever you want. I'll just go back to living a normal life.
