Chapter 10: Alice in wonderland
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH65lToQXxE
It was after we had a simple dinner that I had to listen to the manager and apologize all the way back to the company.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ1D5uJulU
"....Don't worry. Hahaha….I'll buy alcohol and brainwash Mr. Lee into thinking it's all a joke, so it's okay...So is Mr. Lee…."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EYfHjAN5t
I was about to say I was starting to feel tired, when suddenly I heard a faint vibration somewhere.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlbuSKYbcD
"Mr. Lee has a very poor drink, so if I say it over and over again that it's a joke...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLSIljMCxt
"You have a phone."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDnfzD2YIO
He pointed to the cell phone next to him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD944kHLMq
He stopped talking and looked at his phone, then happily pulled over to the side of the road, quickly putting on his headset to connect. When I was wondering who called him and was so happy, I saw the name Chief Park’' on the phone screen.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1mFAxAur8
Ah, that Chief Park who was sobbing. When I recalled the person who interviewed me, the voice of the manager sitting next to me suddenly became strange.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd26rJtXbXU
"….Yes? Chief Park….What do you mean?....Why am I being disciplined?....Yes…..Yes, that is true. But, that's not what I mean…..But it's not that I have any objections, it's that all scheduled classes are suddenly canceled, so I just wanted to ask...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCOTp8pd5K
While he unconsciously raised his voice, he looked at me and lowered his voice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv68fyWIkfD
"Wasn't it the company's fault that the originally registered classes were canceled ?.....I got it. I understand. But did Chief Park check why it was canceled? No, I'm not making excuses, I'm just explaining why I was disciplined for being against the officer in charge. And if I don't have that much of an opinion, how can I be a manager...Yes, yes.... I got it."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOIxT67qWe
Tut…Tut....
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmXqieh0G7
"...Haa…"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTMpfRlAbW
Manager hung up the phone with a serious face, looked at the phone screen for a long time. Then remained the same and opened his mouth.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k3u1zZT2v
"Taemin ah, why don't you ask me what happened....Go..on..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnrWJYsOpX
"What happened?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh73SyzrDQ
He raised his eyes but his expression remained unchanged, the eyes of a normally gentle human were now darkened. It was clear that he was angry.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY08r8jdpLP
"Do you remember I called the person in charge of your canceled classes this morning? That's the problem. I was reported threatening an employee so now I have to pay a fine from my supervisor.....here. So I won't get the basic operation fee for a month."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4BqxTl0mQ
There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes remained dark. Instead of being silent, I slowly spoke up.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYYRvNGbAj
"Then I guess it can't be helped. Seems like there's no choice but to give up on the lessons."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpFVxs8R2a
"!!"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblerAQDvEB
"I'll be fine, for learning I can just go to prep schools....."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoowa6HCNID
"It can't be fine!! Because it's so absurd....Obviously your scheduled classes are all canceled by Myeongshin. "
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMahKcRBhM
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his mouth and lowered his eyes down as if thinking about something before lifting them up.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk62wuFycu
"That's right, it was Myeongshin who was wrong first.....Why should I be disciplined? That fuckin bastard!!...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuaE5CCw1M
Hearing Manager curse words at Myeongshin for the first time made me smile inside.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe50A1u9Kd9
"So, what are you going to do now?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmgMumLDh0
"Damn, I have to go to work. Even if I can't expose everything, I still have to erase my mistake....I should have gone to the company in the first place.....I'm sure it's because I'm scared of stupid words..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS2nlV6faE
He scolded himself and roughly started the car and drove away. Once the car had rolled away, I leaned back against the car seat and opened the door....
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGZ7u2Rz71
"Talk to Chief Park...Try making a phone call to clear things up when you get to the office."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrZkpeTAK6
"What call?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqVxwGf067
He asked again. I turned to look at him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gg1WPowVs
"First let's go see Chief Park."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiWhucq7b3
Chief Park 's office is on the top floor of the building. The executive offices are all gathered in one place, so we have to go through multiple closed doors with different levels of verification from the entrance to the lobby. We were able to get in through the manager yelling at Chief Park. I stepped on the carpet without a sound and entered the office not far from the entrance.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhA2uOO61K
Chief Park was sitting on the opposite side with a serious expression because he knew we were here to protest, so he put on a face that had all the tough features of a man, but it didn't seem to be very effective, because I already knew he was a crybaby.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3IaiTHBgD
" Manager Choi is very loud, so I asked the two of you to come up here to talk, but saying it in advance won't work."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHtiRCKswY
He forcefully told the manager to let him lead the matter first.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM7NfsKvnp
"I contacted the staff you called in the morning and they said it's true that you intend to oppose them.....Of course Manager Choi seems to be the victim but..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZletDhD8dh
"So you know. I was harmed by someone."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQYWlYWTgn
The manager interrupted and approached, causing Chief Park to close his mouth with a confused look on his face. After that, the manager neared out his name.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcsfpdSCrG
"Yoohan. Is it Song Yoohan?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EdBAPxaBq
"Cough….Let's see. I don't know. If you're just saying that without proof...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqbi1HXExq
"Haha….I can give you proof....Watch it here."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbXUVKzC8t
When he finished talking, he used his phone to send a message. Not long after connecting the phone to the speakerphone he had taken from the car, the phone rang. Manager smiled and gave the phone to Chief Park department.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWQHOIkVee
"Listen carefully. Hello? Myeongshin right?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHIuv4ENuc
[What do you mean by that?]
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCISfbN6ic
"Thank you for everything, thanks to me?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSqrXhGZG7
I could hear Myeongshin's exasperated voice through the speakerphone. Now, the manager only smiled at him, no longer had to bow like before.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z70WGMEU8
"Ah, of course thanks for worrying about my newcomer....It's all thanks to the eldest brother...Thank you for taking away all the studio photographers we signed with the company. Only then can Mr. Lee of studio XX take a photo for him."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvlF3yQ2NL
When Myeongshin asked again.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZJauxAQEa
[Mr. Lee?...Don't make me laugh over doing it with that bluff….]
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWRbwylmOV
"It is indeed Mr. Lee...Haha, by the way, I also filed a complaint with the company because the registered classes weren't for newbies who didn't know anything. That's why Chief Park gave us a dedicated instructor there! Hahaha, if it's not thanks to you, then what is it? Thank you very much indeed. This time the person who was brought in was a university lecturer…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHu8NbHN6I
Tut. Tut. Tut..
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pqqqva0Mr
It seems that the other party has hung up so the only sound left is the sound of the phone coming from the speaker, raising his head to look at Chief Park.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwveyZF1BH
"If I now recommend to Chief Park about dedicated instructors, then am I right?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxatfVxtnaq
When asked by Manager, Chief Park put his hand on his forehead because he had a headache.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORhJ7ZRvNg
"I know it is true, but what if you lie like that if he finds out? The fact that it was photographed by Mr. Lee is just a matter of checking...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdjqaQhynU
"It's real."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzlZRDZxBa
"Hah?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDohFMD1W0
"I just brought Taemin to take pictures there."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDeZ4FHZNf
The manager said in a smug tone. It was a bit different from the image of the old manager running around holding a can of water in his hand that I met the other day.....now he's standing up straight and looking at the other person with confidence.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL60Wv18U2
Chief Park must have been surprised, then blinked and cleared his throat.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDc4Y5pkWz
"Cough….So, what if you don't get a call?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRNixUDgzQ
"He will call."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni3AmSpvXI
"......"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJc1LBK1J7
"......"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVbJqZsFcZ
"So if the phone calls , please let Taemin attend the classes as per your contract. Chief Park.....I don't care if there is an operation fee."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBobJ1H83U
Chief Park silently watched the manager speak in a serious tone and nodded.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnkLZvHASk
"Yes. I will."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nOWNk7C5N
"Thank you.... Chief Park. Oh yes, by the way Taemin said he has something to ask."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYoxQLAsVd
He remembered my request before coming here. Chief Park suddenly became a bit wary as if recalling the scene where I was holding a knife and ‘'threatening'’ him.....
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MsN9XNF31
"Hmm….What do you want to know?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdOr4XlzvU
"Please tell me who it is."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGE5KZLFDx
"Who….what?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPOmfxjSjr
"The one who ordered me to discipline my manager."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG1F6GWjqs
There were many reasons why I asked that Psychopath to discipline my manager, but the biggest reason was still that I wanted to know his identity. I could have easily asked him, but I wanted to double check before he told me. I wonder if he can really do anything I ask. And now the opportunity has come. But Chief Park's reaction was a bit strange.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1COYmCKUk
"Huh?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiRptv956r
He seemed very surprised, so he just stared at me. I asked again.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdLt08eLOc
"To be honest, it's very strange. Why force discipline just because a phone call doesn't even count as a recommendation…..It's like someone is behind the scenes manipulating everything."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOgcVWyXmr
Of course it was him....
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtePuOWXCxe
"Ah...That's...It's..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnxKZAxBq3
He opened his mouth in shock but only stammered out a sound like an idiot with his eyes wide open. But why should he be so surprised? Although I knew he probably wouldn't answer easily, I didn't expect him to be so surprised.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBrru2l9s9
"Is it because the person who pressures you is an artist?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzvQYRALQF
The manager who was always watching beside me suddenly got angry and shouted at my question.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9mXRLsed6
"Artist? Could it be Song Yoohan? That guy??!!"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwY2Jv5mJq
"Ah no. Not Song Yoohan...and...not an artist either."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNUhIuUjrH
This time it was my turn to be surprised when he waved his hand in denial…..Hmm? Not an artist? So he's in another position to give him orders? I furrowed my brows and asked Chief Park to confirm once more.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxxQy4fbfW
"Really not an artist?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioowaz6tai
He nodded in response.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrXhVM5Ijr
"Then why are you so surprised?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GUpKhrzKe
I couldn't help but ask Chief Park, then he swallowed and said.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrNu5TfZKE
"I was really surprised. I didn't expect you would actually ask that question."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdsmiYvFHI
Really ask?....What?.....
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7J162qY2P
"I actually received an order."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OvRIDxOfO
"Order?....What order?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxEy2Izi2n
"When someone asks me about a disciplinarian, this is the answer."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OXzRRwXNj
He looked at me awkwardly and opened his mouth with difficulty.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ609uR8SNF2
"Stop worrying about other people's business Baekwon, you idiot.....That is it."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjbMgFlcqj
I turned my back, trying to swallow the curse words in my heart that were about to burst out.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw6IMddv0b
Okay, I admit. He really is much more of a pain in the ass than me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7iycR2tQ9
Manager and Chief Park both wondered what the “Baekwon”was all about, so it took me a long time to change the subject and leave the company. I refused the manager's good will and walked to the bus stop alone. I got on the bus in the opposite direction from the way I usually go home. Their reason was because, just as I left the company, at that moment, I received a message as if it was just waiting for me to leave.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8wAawDsVy
[Come here now.]
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXY0KzqDkE
The sender was [Madman].
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqR08iWmbF5

The lights in the entertainment district were brighter than during the day, making me a little dizzy. In other places, it is time to relax after a long day….but it's only this place that is still bustling as usual. Busy people flowed on the street, long lines of sidewalk shops, cars moving slowly trying to cross the narrow road. Chatting, laughing, the sound of excitement mixed with the popular music crept through the buildings.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R6CtUcMDL
Everyone seemed to be mesmerized and absorbed in that bustling atmosphere. Things that don't concern me. Music, noise, neon lights all left no impression on me. I still have not forgotten the fun of laughing and drinking with everyone back then. Maybe it's because I haven't touched it in years, that part of my past enjoyment seems to have been cut by a knife. From that moment five years ago. So, I feel like it will never change no matter how much time has passed. Like I can't go back. I stopped and looked at the sign hanging at the entrance leading down. Checking the string of English names that looked like phone fonts, I entered.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KftNHo21C
Then, a muscular man in a black suit next to the entrance stood up to stop me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTPRJeqC05
"You can't go this way."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujULDFcnnk
I looked down the stairs,and checked the name again, and continued on. I ignored him and moved, but this person who looked like a security guard continued to put his hand out in front of me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo5jcNlqcN
"This is a membership club, if you are not a member you cannot enter."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IXe3SBWs8
"What if I am a member?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzATruMeaD
The guard hesitated, then stepped back a little, watching me from below. Then he asked, looking suspiciously like he thought I didn't fit his standards.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoKGYAkgwX
"Are you a member?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvkX8J9BCm
"No."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREHLrTNVSF
Looking at his contorted face, I pointed down.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20tUKE6NUw
“But, the person waiting down there is a member."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXJZbTp3La
The security guard immediately apologized and asked something into the receiver connected to the headset. I'm annoyed that he told me to go to such a troublesome place. So, I stood slightly tilted, the security guard was checking when suddenly asked me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqwjmmjudn
"What is the name of your companion?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj22ArBxuT
"That...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfrNf5lB2q
"Could you tell me the name of your companion?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwK7wRR4cv
"!"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdW8RVfZCz
"You have to give me the name so I can check..."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYNW9vjFXv
"Let's see if anyone looks like a madman in there."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFKuP0HMBo
"Huh?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6DyDyWTlx
He raised his voice and grimaced.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUcIE4RIKy
If he did, he might forcefully drive me away, so I took a big step back. That's it, anyway, he just told me to come this far, I've already done it, so it doesn't matter if I leave now. If he does come, I can just make excuses, so I turn around. As I was about to leave quickly, I seemed to hear someone running up the stairs and calling my name back.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCWERStWT6
"Is it Mr. Lee Taemin?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFU5tON7L2
That's not my real name, so I thought it would be fine to just deny it and leave...However, I couldn't help but turn around at the next confirmation.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIftDS0WLDe
"Ah yes, Lee Taemin is just a stage name, and the real name is Lee Baekwon. If it's you, then please...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsn8RFO95Z
When I looked over, I saw the security guard standing....I blushed in surprise at that so-called ‘’'real name of mine”.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DFjDpzLdJ
Because of my ‘'real name”' Lee Baekwon, I have to trust this so-called club manager down below. Other than the speculation that this shop with a long English name would just look like a regular bar, the atmosphere here is like that of a high-class, classy and quiet restaurant.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbsMTH7z78
Classical tunes rang out, chandeliers hung from the ceiling and paintings hung everywhere in the small hall. Around the hall, narrow passages curved in various directions extending to three places, giving the place the feeling of the center of a maze.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr51SIgVkNg
"This way."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtFg0UjkMn
Just as I stopped and looked around, he called out softly and led me into the leftmost aisle.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZYXLsokTQ
"It's easy for first timers to get lost, so please follow closely behind me."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxws17gLEbY
Perhaps he was right, the strange passage met more corridors and branched again. It seems that I really would have lost my way if I had missed the manager. The only distinguishing feature was the doors on either side of the corridors, all of them of different designs. The manager stopped in front of one of them, opened the door, and reached in.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63JqgIpBav
"Can you wait here for a moment?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BStIObHbE
Entering the small room with furniture that looked like a normal apartment, I asked him to close the door.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9cOEpfrww
"How long?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaqRy8VhoM
He was about to close the door when he stopped and replied with a smile.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDQX06sa5d
"It won't take more than 30 minutes."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLFAHHmPVx
Click.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqFP1IMhNF
After the door closed, I looked around the quiet room, sat down at the end of the long sofa and checked the time.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOr8yfzkgsI
...9 hours and 29 minutes...
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEcM0M85C1
"Come quickly...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJWcMKHqg6
I was mumbling when suddenly the door opened and someone walked in.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc33uLtHZtR
"Hello sir."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYgXJxDkyZ
A beautiful girl approached and greeted me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53oh1qpFx2
The lightly makeuped face looked like it came out of a painting and the skin was clean and spotless. Exalted by a deep red dress that revealed a high neckline under her bouncy hair, it looked even more white and glowing. This girl looks even more beautiful than most artists in the world, to the point that it can make people on the street turn their heads to look at each other, holding a tray of glasses and a bottle of Western wine in her hand.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja6vBOVq9q
However, it was immediately apparent that she was clearly not a waitress carrying a glass of water at all. Serving a glass of water or anything. With that side slit red dress and gorgeous jewelry, she looked more like a receptionist. The problem is why the receptionist entered this room. It's not like I haven't been to a place like this in the past so I know well, unless I'm a loyal customer, alcohol and women will never automatically be offered. Confused, I watched her gently sit down beside me. Before my gaze, the girl came to sit closer to me and smiled.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RP76zIdyL
"In the meantime, let's chat for a while."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSDMbo568D
"No need."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToGyH1JWih
"Ah, don't you like to be disturbed? Well then...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ALDHSZzUG
"I don't need to."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy57brYrQAf
Staring at the girl. I coldly spat out.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB5qGH1TTA
There was a hint of embarrassment on the beautiful woman's face, but I had no choice. Based on my experience, their job is to receive guests, so even if the man sitting in the room refuses, they can't just leave. I'm not used to this, so I thought I only had to refuse once.
But...,no matter how unlucky I am, I have to say it clearly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLyOw5JWO6
"Get out of here."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tv8HFGl35
I pointed at the drink and asked in a low voice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkJmoaEeRL
The girl stopped breathing for a moment,and looked at me and realized it was true, and reluctantly put on a smile.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2pfvwelyV
"Aren't you satisfied with me? Or should I go for another drink?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIABVeYAoMZ
She was immediately able to return to her original bright voice, showing how well-trained the girl was. From the looks to training. Since it's mentioned as a membership, the quality here can be counted on to be quite high. Maybe that bottle alone is equivalent to half a year of my salary.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnlawPrIo1
"Tell me if you like any kind of wine....He told me to say to you that you don't have to worry about money, and just need to wait comfortably."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO0S72nbaD
The voice is as sweet as the song of a bird...I would be grateful if I could drink expensive wine for free, but….
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSG4ZucmkH
"I don't drink...So take it away."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnWLonSLVs
For the second time, the girl finally got up from her seat. However, the girl left the wine behind and walked out the door smiling.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3eQ9bpWws
"Looks like you're not happy with me . I'll call someone else over."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKk2sVXYcT
The girl left before I could say no, and after a long time someone actually approached. This time a handsome guy. Sure enough, also with a face with a more beautiful appearance than most artists in the world, he smiled at me and entered the room.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpRqhSG4tk
"Woah….You are so lovely...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAcUfIAcD3
"Get out...."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8evClOLvQX
I said, somehow I had an uneasy feeling that these words would have to keep coming out of my mouth.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIcxOOqonm
9 hours and 59 minutes...
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBWxq2mZTt
When the clock struck the right time, I got up from my seat immediately. From now on, men and women have had enough, taking turns entering. After all, taking turns entering, causing me to constantly chase them out , and in the end 30 minutes had passed. I really wanted to leave this room because I've had enough, but the door opened before I could even touch it.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I have come to pick you up."

As soon as the face of the club manager who led me here first met my eyes, I really wanted to swear. It only takes one step faster to leave.
I tried to suppress the regret in my heart and was dragged along with him through the labyrinth of corridors.

Turn right, turn left, then turn right again.

I had passed these passages enough for the back to gradually disappear from view, but I was not bored at all. Watching the doors change is also quite magical for me. I think I've seen this scene in some fairy tale. Labyrinth of corridors with different doors.

She becomes huge and can also shrink, and a rabbit appears…

"Do you want to go inside?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZE7qoXdnS
When I looked up, I saw that he had opened an iron door at the end of the corridor and pointed inside. Ah...I remembered that the girl entered the wrong door,and got into trouble, and so she fell into a wonderland.

For some reason, I have the feeling that if I step inside, I will also fall into another magical land. But that feeling was gone in an instant.

"Mr. Lee Baekwon?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx54jh35B7o
I lazily reacted to the name making it impossible not to wake up from reality. The manager who was over 40 walked in first and kindly explained.

"We're almost there. Mr. Lee Baekwon."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXCTsLW3Sm
"…."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgybQAGTTV
"Is there anything uncomfortable about Mr. Lee Baekwon?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRdwcFnj3o
"No."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf18QY7kKY
I replied briefly to confirm with him.

Obviously he didn't mean anything by calling me that. Even so, the innocent person still felt awkward at my gaze and stepped inside. It was a storage room with stuff piled up on either side, but he slid right through them and opened another door on the opposite side and went in. Then, another corridor appeared.

These corridors are a little different. No decorations, no music, like a corridor for employees who are busy moving. The man crossed the narrow aisle, came to a nearby door, knocked and turned to look at me.

"He is waiting inside."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkwUvQGK9A
Then he gently opened the door and stepped aside....I looked around once more before entering. Having a room deep inside this wonderland meant he couldn't at least be a guest...Or is he the owner of this place?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjb58NZzGL
"Who is the person inside?"
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1PE6OB3he
I tried to ask, he was a bit confused but immediately replied with a smile.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuoDlPteOC
"Of course, it is the one who is waiting for you, Mr. Lee Baekwon."
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGTCyjWAaF
I suddenly felt extremely regretful, when I only had 200 won in my pocket the day I first met him.
