"If you have any questions, just ask."

"Don't hang around so annoyingly."

The man stood there, holding only the handle of the gun, with not a single finger on the trigger.

I thought there would be something going on seeing the way he was pulling the trigger, but as expected...

I burst out laughing because I could clearly see that he was just putting on airs without even having the guts to pull the trigger. I turned around and headed towards the narrow door next to the blackboard, the place and cause of my curiosity.

Then I tried to open the door in front of the man...

bang-

Suddenly, a gunshot is heard, and at the same time, a bullet passes between the door and my face at an incredibly fast speed...

The speed was so fast that I couldn't even follow it with my eyes, so I couldn't do anything like tilt my head back to dodge or crouch down.

I stood there frozen in place, reeling from the bullets that passed me by, close enough to make my nose tingle. I slowly turned my head and saw a man walking towards me with a gun in his hand.

"Are you crazy?"

I was so shocked that my jaw dropped and the first words that came out of my throat were, "Are you crazy?"

The man who lowered his gun at my words and came towards me leaned against the door I was about to open, tilted his head, and opened his mouth.

"I'm not crazy."

The man's answer was enough to convince me he was truly crazy. He shrugged his shoulders with such composure, despite the fact that he could have easily blown a hole in my head if he hadn't been careful.

I was so surprised that I slowly clenched and unclenched my fist, putting strength into my weak hands. I looked up at the man and calmly held out my hand and spoke.

"Hand it over. You can't use it carelessly without even learning it."

He waved his hand calmly, as if he was trying to persuade a child, and told him to hand over the gun...

The man, who was still looking down at me with the gun still tightly in his hand, as if he couldn't understand what I was saying, suddenly raised the gun and put the muzzle to his head.

And then...

Scratch...scribble...

A man scratching his head..

The worry that the man might shoot himself in the head with a gun was a completely pointless and useless thought.

I tried to control my expression, thinking that he was just a little nervous, startled by the sudden action. Then, the man scratched his head with the muzzle of the gun and opened his mouth with a questioning expression.

"Why do you think I would never have learned it?"

A man raises his eyebrows and asks, "Why would you assume that he's never learned how to shoot?"

Seeing the man spitting out words that suggested that it was impossible for a civilian to have learned marksmanship, I thought that he must have been acting like a slacker because he had played with toy guns at the arcade.

The man was still mumbling and fiddling with the gun.

"There's no way a shooter wouldn't know how to use a gun."

The moment I heard the man's words, something that happened a few hours ago suddenly came to mind...

After talking for a while, Seong-un suddenly remembered something he had forgotten and came to me, clapping his hands and saying,

"One of the kids that came out of the music room... was famous!"

이여주 image

"who?"

Seong-un frowned and opened his mouth as if he was vaguely remembering something in response to my question, and began to blurt out whatever he could remember.

하성운 image

하성운

"Why... He's handsome! Tall! He's a marksman!"

As I listened with a frown at the description that made it difficult to conjure up a human image, my eyes widened and my mouth dropped open when I heard the word "shooter."

이여주 image

"Shooter?"

When I look at Seong-un oppa with surprised eyes, I hear a voice from next to me...

"jungkook jeon..?"

하성운 image

하성운

"Oh!! That's right!"

One of the people who came out of the music room said he was a shooter and his name was Jeon Jungkook.

There's a shooter at our school...

But that person...

"jungkook jeon..?"

"How did you know my name?"

This is the man in front of me right now...

For some reason, the way he handled the gun was different from other guns, even though he was usually taught how to handle it by playing with toy guns.

Even when shooting a gun, the arms were stretched out straight to minimize the impact, the strength with which the bow was pulled back so easily, and even the movements of the hands that seemed to have mastered the grip of the gun were all extraordinary, but of course, I looked down on the man because I was a civilian and had prejudices against him.

But what's more important now is what I've seen and heard so far...

A man strode through the school, seemingly uninterested in the mysterious woman's voice and the zombies that were heard from the wall connected to the music room.

And at the thought that everything, including Seongwoon Oppa's sighting and the friction sound I heard before entering the music room, was connected to this man, a thousand doubts suddenly rose in my head and questions about the man came to mind.

I slowly lowered the hand I had raised in front of the man and stared at him intently. The man, who was looking down at me with his lips trembling, slowly opened his mouth as if he had something to say to me...

"What are you?"

이여주 image

이여주

"Did you sexually assault her?"

I cut the man off and asked him what I wanted to ask him most right then and there.

It might seem too direct, but I decided that there was no question that could get to the bottom of things faster than this, so I spoke without a filter. The man who heard me opened his eyes wide as if he was quite embarrassed and immediately responded with a rebuttal.

전정국

"It's not me!?"

The man's expression, as he threw a tantrum, saying it wasn't him, looked quite wronged, and his tone of voice was so sincere that I immediately put my doubts aside and grabbed the gun from the flustered man's hand.

Then, I grabbed the doorknob of the narrow door next to the blackboard, which was my original target, and pushed the man's waist aside.
