Chapter 10: Alice in wonderland
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdl1KdaWYR
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK4Yv31Zs1
"....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…."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1e6xA6HIo
I was about to say I was starting to feel tired, when suddenly I heard a faint vibration somewhere.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8wkVuIxLz
"Mr. Lee has a very poor drink, so if I say it over and over again that it's a joke...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuejCd475kh
"You have a phone."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcfLM0f5Sh
He pointed to the cell phone next to him.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyJCkqJsew
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxJft8cjZn
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihYvqbMQ3J
"….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...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrSElf97jX
While he unconsciously raised his voice, he looked at me and lowered his voice.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpkRIzarsB
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWNG7zEVRs
Tut…Tut....
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrNsDEGLWV
"...Haa…"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZG24i34Di
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8aQI3nwaz
"Taemin ah, why don't you ask me what happened....Go..on..."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshmoTi5oHZ
"What happened?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0UeBvu8ZY
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡri77fl1Fbc
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JSdJ4wIny
There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes remained dark. Instead of being silent, I slowly spoke up.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GbLQCM4YC
"Then I guess it can't be helped. Seems like there's no choice but to give up on the lessons."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ8yzn3RNZ
"!!"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETCu3nWEqz
"I'll be fine, for learning I can just go to prep schools....."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgYU0GvT2U
"It can't be fine!! Because it's so absurd....Obviously your scheduled classes are all canceled by Myeongshin. "
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ9u5OHuLI
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his mouth and lowered his eyes down as if thinking about something before lifting them up.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtp9pUwPLe
"That's right, it was Myeongshin who was wrong first.....Why should I be disciplined? That fuckin bastard!!...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZqtTwhbKD
Hearing Manager curse words at Myeongshin for the first time made me smile inside.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxcA5S7pWv
"So, what are you going to do now?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06ziaCEoBB
"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..."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0IemyQ8Nb
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....
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBv9IIVpAj
"Talk to Chief Park...Try making a phone call to clear things up when you get to the office."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ9CAcSbpd
"What call?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbF3yZsfBy
He asked again. I turned to look at him.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAen649jVL8
"First let's go see Chief Park."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8rkIlLSRp
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1V0tQOWcyA
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLFxt7sLuZ
" 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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2V9x3ZGgNM
He forcefully told the manager to let him lead the matter first.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueAN7Jo2Ez
"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..."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2gQ0vZpIR
"So you know. I was harmed by someone."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs20rwfUdR
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7Yat4hPod
"Yoohan. Is it Song Yoohan?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32pBbTc2kX
"Cough….Let's see. I don't know. If you're just saying that without proof...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFkVXiGOhn
"Haha….I can give you proof....Watch it here."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb6QHPXYKs
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k0XQUv5jE
"Listen carefully. Hello? Myeongshin right?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRmCztb8bE
[What do you mean by that?]
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtssq9UT3x
"Thank you for everything, thanks to me?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3itFs2JkOv
I could hear Myeongshin's exasperated voice through the speakerphone. Now, the manager only smiled at him, no longer had to bow like before.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYLDgOEtoe
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZffiTPAqk
When Myeongshin asked again.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7SwLTcsqI
[Mr. Lee?...Don't make me laugh over doing it with that bluff….]
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGFzeWtonT
"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…”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzZcBHHXdd
Tut. Tut. Tut..
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT6pp7w4M4
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9jUOlbtkj
"If I now recommend to Chief Park about dedicated instructors, then am I right?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQ32ZlVsts
When asked by Manager, Chief Park put his hand on his forehead because he had a headache.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW53uBMHUDf
"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...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxlmdqJ2cp
"It's real."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8PH98fc3W
"Hah?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRnqtaDN04
"I just brought Taemin to take pictures there."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUjIDznM2e
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYofNeB0n2
Chief Park must have been surprised, then blinked and cleared his throat.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQcoLfafg6
"Cough….So, what if you don't get a call?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkmRrQxmaZ
"He will call."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBq8mFrWSn
"......"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLXSItfho7
"......"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW5zZuQqNB
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiFPxqJeKO
Chief Park silently watched the manager speak in a serious tone and nodded.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ge2EiXS0D
"Yes. I will."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx0n48TNbD
"Thank you.... Chief Park. Oh yes, by the way Taemin said he has something to ask."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK5OvfYnV7
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.....
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwz2dBfQwk
"Hmm….What do you want to know?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOlorfZRA8
"Please tell me who it is."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFU2BByCmP
"Who….what?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3SHrl6gG8
"The one who ordered me to discipline my manager."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDpdy25fbw
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOYwIhx94V
"Huh?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq2evyB6DH
He seemed very surprised, so he just stared at me. I asked again.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9tBQcvob6
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSclGIg2sNw
Of course it was him....
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2iLDnFV4l
"Ah...That's...It's..."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJf10Lgkkm
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRzoZhHG5B
"Is it because the person who pressures you is an artist?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v1hTDFLoN
The manager who was always watching beside me suddenly got angry and shouted at my question.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOarr082xd
"Artist? Could it be Song Yoohan? That guy??!!"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZhiHxljVg
"Ah no. Not Song Yoohan...and...not an artist either."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXWtSkyi0V
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTh4IYRCTS
"Really not an artist?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Hl41dF0uP
He nodded in response.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGyuJHoD5y
"Then why are you so surprised?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK7HbktRNC
I couldn't help but ask Chief Park, then he swallowed and said.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4rNs8GC6B
"I was really surprised. I didn't expect you would actually ask that question."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoIZ5vOWpU
Really ask?....What?.....
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDEBK3ayjo
"I actually received an order."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gic6XPsqG
"Order?....What order?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyvIyQqfxD
"When someone asks me about a disciplinarian, this is the answer."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKRu7mskEs
He looked at me awkwardly and opened his mouth with difficulty.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaB4PWd3lj
"Stop worrying about other people's business Baekwon, you idiot.....That is it."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEou452YvQT
I turned my back, trying to swallow the curse words in my heart that were about to burst out.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDueAvz24r2
Okay, I admit. He really is much more of a pain in the ass than me.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylqqcaNSxV
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jeUKJNf2J
[Come here now.]
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQWhwsUkLH
The sender was [Madman].

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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydfGQwu48W
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVDKC0lnBu
Then, a muscular man in a black suit next to the entrance stood up to stop me.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3McZAPjC7
"You can't go this way."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7aBzGEwAm
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTmaNP1Ezt
"This is a membership club, if you are not a member you cannot enter."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qaw33qtGO
"What if I am a member?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWt8urcAct
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hieiCbezk
"Are you a member?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xh3FfJq7S
"No."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKyxOOADkW
Looking at his contorted face, I pointed down.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHHszOPZRN
“But, the person waiting down there is a member."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCedvD1fZfV
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO5ICFEXNx
"What is the name of your companion?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzcPExXwR4
"That...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vyzYHM5Bg
"Could you tell me the name of your companion?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtaDIIk2WB
"!"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qHUSuVPZw
"You have to give me the name so I can check..."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJiMLc8cyx
"Let's see if anyone looks like a madman in there."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXoSXXu33i
"Huh?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww05MqPsSK
He raised his voice and grimaced.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnvBAM8DXe
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoyeqY8cEA
"Is it Mr. Lee Taemin?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTFFLPqBgy
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvXmkfYehm
"Ah yes, Lee Taemin is just a stage name, and the real name is Lee Baekwon. If it's you, then please...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoTvLWNMQz
When I looked over, I saw the security guard standing....I blushed in surprise at that so-called ‘’'real name of mine”.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxbA4LFQ8B
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSM57apAwHg
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlugcz6IxRU
"This way."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjvXxlrxqZ
Just as I stopped and looked around, he called out softly and led me into the leftmost aisle.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORJyB3FCa3
"It's easy for first timers to get lost, so please follow closely behind me."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfRMBm6f7w
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKgNq2Iwgw
"Can you wait here for a moment?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCF9Skik4J
Entering the small room with furniture that looked like a normal apartment, I asked him to close the door.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgl5FjBqHL
"How long?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtNwDv2OQe
He was about to close the door when he stopped and replied with a smile.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhnHZeDKbw
"It won't take more than 30 minutes."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jaoErQjq5
Click.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5xxiiCb37
After the door closed, I looked around the quiet room, sat down at the end of the long sofa and checked the time.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPJkCqAxfD
...9 hours and 29 minutes...
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf43ZqxlFvq
"Come quickly...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDIrHLoCWl
I was mumbling when suddenly the door opened and someone walked in.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh342NTPqdL
"Hello sir."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmOGlVZ5Hd
A beautiful girl approached and greeted me.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGajTex4WFJ
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy4W9Lyf8u
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEXlkuniSa
"In the meantime, let's chat for a while."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrQRN0UytL
"No need."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwnye6J7lu
"Ah, don't you like to be disturbed? Well then...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSy0Vv54YR
"I don't need to."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0KaUQk4ZN
Staring at the girl. I coldly spat out.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAyac2sWID
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh0axcje49
"Get out of here."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6BE2jDtpL
I pointed at the drink and asked in a low voice.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS58CQnOsWa
The girl stopped breathing for a moment,and looked at me and realized it was true, and reluctantly put on a smile.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMNzYuCjd0
"Aren't you satisfied with me? Or should I go for another drink?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWo8Le3zzk
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6uVKsvj6a
"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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyA3U3kf53
The voice is as sweet as the song of a bird...I would be grateful if I could drink expensive wine for free, but….
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uQ1MxxzZw
"I don't drink...So take it away."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAAMxS4ZDi
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB79iYVim90
"Looks like you're not happy with me . I'll call someone else over."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1qGHyZRJw
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUZkXjLQz0
"Woah….You are so lovely...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPHFv0JwuC
"Get out...."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LAgSvn3wX
I said, somehow I had an uneasy feeling that these words would have to keep coming out of my mouth.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZU20sqYIm
9 hours and 59 minutes...
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP5PPhHDhv
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yqKhJrdwY
"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I have come to pick you up."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmB4Hd5D5l
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dG0niAz5I
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?"

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?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlY2yyyqXz
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."
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCDRfoBMNB
"…."

"Is there anything uncomfortable about Mr. Lee Baekwon?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPprDUjFN2X
"No."

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."

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?

"Who is the person inside?"
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRf4JKvvqo
I tried to ask, he was a bit confused but immediately replied with a smile.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ816qhduKme
"Of course, it is the one who is waiting for you, Mr. Lee Baekwon."

I suddenly felt extremely regretful, when I only had 200 won in my pocket the day I first met him.
