gray man

EP.13 Gray Wolf

[This episode is told from Jimin's perspective]

I decided to listen to Do Ji-hoon, saying that I would do everything for Yeoju's sake, but in the end, I ended up kidnapping her, and feeling sorry for that, I hugged her and cried.

"Jimin, for now, I'll allow you to take him to your house."

박지민 image

박지민

"..T-Is that true..?"

도지훈 image

도지훈

"Bring him along every morning when you come here, and go home together at night."

박지민 image

박지민

"H-haa... Ugh... ugh..."

도지훈 image

도지훈

"However, only when you have completed all the work I assign you every day."

도지훈 image

도지훈

I'll do that for him, and if he fails, this guy will stay here.

박지민 image

박지민

"...."

도지훈 image

도지훈

You get the meaning, right?

박지민 image

박지민

"O-yes."

도지훈 image

도지훈

"I should have done this sooner. Jimin is such a good boy, right?"

박지민 image

박지민

"...."

도지훈 image

도지훈

"Then, what our Jimin has to do this time is..."

"ha..."

민윤기 image

민윤기

"Brother, how are you feeling? Are you okay?"

김석진 image

김석진

Thank you, Yoongi.

김석진 image

김석진

"Anyway, Park Jimin took Yeoju away after leaving just a single word of apology, and there's still no news?"

전정국 image

전정국

"...yes"

김태형 image

김태형

"Ahhh!! Hey Jeon Jungkook, it hurts, so go easy on me..."

전정국 image

전정국

"It hurts because you got hurt, you idiot!!"

민윤기 image

민윤기

"Shut up, if you're going to fight, get out."

김태형 image

김태형

"Damn it..."

전정국 image

전정국

"Ah, anyway..."

김석진 image

김석진

"Does the medicine have Do Si-hoon?"

민윤기 image

민윤기

"Yeah, but doesn't it matter?"

전정국 image

전정국

What do you mean it doesn't matter?

김석진 image

김석진

The medicine Do Si-hun made himself is a fake.

김석진 image

김석진

The real medicine is with me.

전정국 image

전정국

"Then what's the use... when the female lead isn't here..."

김태형 image

김태형

"...But if Park Jimin listens to Do Jihoon and follows his instructions..."

김태형 image

김태형

"Aren't you going to give that medicine to the female lead someday?"

민윤기 image

민윤기

Come to think of it... that's a possibility, too..

김석진 image

김석진

"Haa, things... I can't believe things got this messed up..."

Bang bang bang-

전정국 image

전정국

"What is it? Who is it?"

민윤기 image

민윤기

Stay here, I'll be right back.

민윤기 image

민윤기

"...."

박지민 image

박지민

I don't even know what nerve I have to show up here.

전정국 image

전정국

"Shameless bastard."

박지민 image

박지민

"..."

박지민 image

박지민

This is all for the female lead..

전정국 image

전정국

"For the female lead?"

전정국 image

전정국

"If it was for the female lead's sake, you should have just ignored what those bastards were saying there and killed them all."

전정국 image

전정국

But as if that weren't enough, that bastard Do Ji-hoon decided to live like a dog.

전정국 image

전정국

"From your mouth, for the female lead?"

전정국 image

전정국

How can you even say something like that?

I didn't want to admit it, and I wanted to at least offer a little rebuttal to Jeon Jungkook who was so angry, but everything he said was true, and it was such a waste that his words about it being for the female lead were practically a lie.

I knew all too well that his attitude of protecting Yeoju while deceiving me was wrong, so I could neither block nor refute the words Jeon Jungkook was thrusting at me.

Because it's true.

But I don't know where I got the courage from, but looking at the four of them gathered there, I spoke boldly.

박지민 image

박지민

Then you should have caught me back then, or protected the heroine yourself.

박지민 image

박지민

You know very well that I ended up in this state after joining them to protect the female lead.

김태형 image

김태형

You have no right to say that.

김태형 image

김태형

If that medicine were fake, if I had known that fact

김태형 image

김태형

"Did you do that?"

박지민 image

박지민

"what?"

민윤기 image

민윤기

"I told you before, we make two medicines: a fake one and a real one."

박지민 image

박지민

"S-surely not..."

전정국 image

전정국

"If you know, bring the female lead."

박지민 image

박지민

I can't bring him.

Tight-

박지민 image

박지민

"Ugh, hmph..."

김석진 image

김석진

"Jeon Jungkook, what are you doing?"

김석진 image

김석진

Ah, no.

김석진 image

김석진

Both of you stop it.

김석진 image

김석진

You were both slow to judge each other, so what are you doing?

김석진 image

김석진

We'll figure out a plan to get the female lead out ourselves.

김석진 image

김석진

So stop it.

전정국 image

전정국

"...."

박지민 image

박지민

Do Ji-hoon..

박지민 image

박지민

"If you don't do as you're told, the female lead will be in danger."

박지민 image

박지민

"At the very least, to save the female lead, I have to listen to that bastard Do Ji-hoon."

박지민 image

박지민

Only then can I be with Yeoju in the morning and at night.

민윤기 image

민윤기

"Haa, opportunities are morning and night, and I don't know what Do Ji-hoon will make me do."

김석진 image

김석진

I should always keep that in mind when I go out.

김태형 image

김태형

"...I'll do it as soon as possible, but it's impossible today."

김태형 image

김태형

We need to be in a state of recovery to some extent to fight and hold out.

박지민 image

박지민

"...Anyway, the reason I came here is because of this."

박지민 image

박지민

I'll be going now..

전정국 image

전정국

"...Wait a minute, Park Jimin."

박지민 image

박지민

Do you have something to talk to me about?

전정국 image

전정국

Do only as much as you can.

전정국 image

전정국

Just do it up to that point.

박지민 image

박지민

"...huh"

'Tuk-'

.

. .

As I left the house following Do Ji-hoon's instructions, I dropped a sleeping bomb, and I smiled a little at the thought that I could at least go home with Yeoju today.

But I was so foolish; even though I was laughing, the tears wouldn't stop, and in the end, I just collapsed right there.

박지민 image

박지민

"Hmph, if only I... hmph... hadn't made this decision..."

박지민 image

박지민

"The female lead... could have been happy by now..."

박지민 image

박지민

"M-m-sorry... Yeoju..."

박지민 image

박지민

"I'll definitely, definitely save you..."

No matter how much gray is meant for everyone, gray could not save gray, and for those who possess that gray, the desire to kill someone who tries to save someone else only grows stronger.

And in the end, I was nothing more than Do Ji-hoon's gray wolf, blinded by that desire and unaware that I was being held captive by him.
