Kiss your shadow
[G-Kiss] | 17.



Jeokbuk

Jeobuk_



A lakeside where the lights of a banquet hall can be dimly seen in the distance.

Jungkook glanced around and wiped the blood off his hands with the lake water. He then stood up, shaking his wet hands.



전정국
....


전정국
...((I raise my head and look at the sky




Pitch black, barely able to see a single star,

It's like the moon is hidden behind the clouds and not visible...



전정국
........


전정국
.....It's a perfect day for someone to die_

however,

..Here, it's better than I thought...?


Thanks to the bright lights of the banquet hall that shine brightly at all times, it is not too dark at night.

There is a lake in front and trees behind it, so it is good for hiding and getting drinking water.

..If something happens, you can just say that you came to get water.


And there is no sign of people here

Jeokbuk,


전정국
Whoosh((



전정국
......


전정국
....(I'm not the only one who thought this was a good place to hide...)



전정국
Oh,, ...have you lost your senses..?


전정국
....



Jeongguk hid himself at the sound of footsteps a few steps away from where he was.

Looking at the man in the black mask and the large sack, it didn't seem like he was doing anything very clean.


Then, with a splash, the bag was thrown into the lake.

After the man confirmed that the sack had sunk to the bottom, he disappeared like the wind.


전정국
.....

Swish, Jeongguk shows up.



전정국
.....What,..is he really dead..?

This is scary for me...

No no, I'm not afraid of ghosts or anything, but this actually happened in real life..!



전정국
.......


전정국
.....let's just go...


전정국
They say closing your eyes and ears is the palace, ...I didn't do anything today

with a splash

with a splash-


전정국
.....


Swish

Swish-


..Jeong-guk cautiously turned around at the sound that was so different from what had just happened before his eyes.

And soon, the person who caught his eye was someone so unexpected that it made his thoughts of just leaving seem meaningless.



전정국
.....New heroine...?!


신여주
...uh..

The female protagonist looks up at him while drenched in water.

...There was silence for a moment, and then,



신여주
......


신여주
....Anyway...


신여주
((He loses consciousness and sinks into the water.



전정국
New heroine...!!



Jeong-guk, who pulled the unconscious female protagonist out of the water.

..Did he cut the handle with the knife he had hidden on his body?

The fact that my body felt light even when wet made me wonder if I had been caught after disappearing for a few days.



전정국
.....


전정국
...no......



전정국
Where are you going with this?




_Meanwhile, Gangnyeongjeon



민윤기/이융
......

Thump

Thump-


A blood-splattered outer garment,


Thump

Thump-


He took off his vest one by one, smelling of alcohol.


The more I took off the clothes on my body, the heavier and darker it became. Just imagining it made my head spin as if I was possessed.


내관
..Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has requested an audience with you tomorrow.


민윤기/이융
Reject it.

내관
......


Even though there is nothing to worry about, I worry about something every hour.

Even though I haven't been drinking, I have strange thoughts as if I were drunk.


Every single word I uttered was unpleasant,

I feel uncomfortable with something that keeps coming to my mind.



민윤기/이융
.....

내관
Your Majesty.... ..The Queen Mother.... requests to see you....


민윤기/이융
Refuse. I have no intention of seeing you.

내관
.....




민윤기/이융
......

내관
...majesty......


민윤기/이융
(Buruk)) Refuse, today... I don't want to meet anyone

Drumroll

Drumroll-





민윤기/이융
.......


전정국
....


내관
...ㅁ,I brought the ..g,gu..court lady who disappeared a few days ago....


Thump

Thump-

내관
...Your Majesty...!


Two people's eyes met through the open sliding door.

He pushed the eunuch standing in front of me away and met Jeong-guk's eyes.



민윤기/이융
.....


민윤기/이융
....what is this... what is this,


민윤기/이융
.......((He looks down at the female protagonist who is being held in his arms



민윤기/이융
What the heck is this...



전정국
Because it was by the lake,


전정국
..I have met you as a court lady of His Majesty, so I came here.


민윤기/이융
......


He looked up from his gaze at the female protagonist as she spoke to him as if informing him, and met his eyes again.

It was a moment when the sound of water drops falling on the floor was louder than anything else.



전정국
....It's probably been three or four days. It's been gone.


민윤기/이융
.......


전정국
I almost drowned in the lake. I was so emaciated that I must have starved for days.


전정국
..Your Majesty, a maid has gone missing from the palace, but there is no...!


민윤기/이융
It's four days.


전정국
...yes?



민윤기/이융
..Yeah, after tonight it'll be 13.



민윤기/이융
Are you saying I did nothing right now? In front of me?


전정국
......


민윤기/이융
...Why is it so big a deal or so unusual for one person to disappear from the palace?


민윤기/이융
Even if that were true, I wouldn't be able to check every single palace maid, right? .... I'm not a saint or anything..



민윤기/이융
..But, even I, a simple court lady, how can you be discussing such things like this?


전정국
......


민윤기/이융
By any chance, are you lusting after the king's woman, the court lady? Huh?


Yoon-ki and Jeong-guk look at each other and sneer softly.

Jeongguk just watches him without any expression on his face.


He, who had received the female lead from the bosom of a certain Jeongguk, quickly turned around and entered the bedroom.



민윤기/이융
...order the fire in the room to be kept hot,

내관
Uh..yes....? ..yes!!


He put the wet female protagonist down on his blanket.

He approaches Jeong-guk, who has reached right in front of the third settling point.



민윤기/이융
But.... ..you look familiar. Like,


민윤기/이융
.....just like I hid in the sediment once before...


전정국
......



전정국
....he


전정국
Smile)) You must have seen it a lot already


민윤기/이융
....?


전정국
..because I am in the palace as a member of the orchestra.


민윤기/이융
band?



민윤기/이융
Ha...heh


Yoongi approached Jeongguk with a smirk.

I reach out and squeeze his shoulder.



민윤기/이융
.....


전정국
....













전정국
...whatever the reason...


민윤기/이융
.........


전정국
.....


민윤기/이융
....smirk)) Just...ㅎ I'll go now. It's too late at night


He smiled, loosening the hand that had been holding Jeongguk's shoulder.

He turns around calmly as if nothing happened and goes into bed.



전정국
.....


민윤기/이융
....he


Was it the other arm? lol
