The death toll is 10, with no injuries and one survivor. Emergency workers are searching with rescue dogs, expecting there to be more survivors.

When I opened my eyes, a white ceiling greeted me.

홍지수

Is this a hospital...?

As I looked around the hospital room, my eyes met with the nurse who had come to check on me.

간호사

Is the patient awake?

홍지수

Yes... Could you explain why I am here...?

간호사

♡♡You know the orphanage, right? The news said there was a fire there and no survivors except for the patients.

... In the end, Su-ah died on the spot.

홍지수

Oh, thank you...

간호사

The patient just woke up, so if you're in pain, please ring the bell and I'll be right back.

After leaving those words, he left the hospital room.

홍지수

What the... Are you going out like that?

Not long after the nurse left, there was a noise outside the door.

윤정한

No, Choi Seung-cheol, is this the right place???

최승철

Oh, that's right??

최승철

I saw the nurse come out here earlier

I got out of bed and opened the door. There were two men staring at me, startled by the door suddenly opening.

홍지수

What the heck, why are you guys making noise in front of someone else's hospital room?

최승철

Are you the kid from the news?

홍지수

What if it's right?

윤정한

Then let's be friends

홍지수

Why me?

최승철

We're from that orphanage

최승철

I was adopted not long after I came in...

I remembered

The director had mentioned indirectly that two boys my age had been admitted and then immediately adopted.

홍지수

Yeah, let's be friends
