Chapter 60: Underneath Their Feet
Everyone paused when they saw the hill of debris they had to climb over in order to advance.
There were buildings stacked on top of one another, the pile stretched upwards to about 12 meters. And the rubble ran a long distance to the far right and left, making traversal around it impossible.
The only option was to go over.
Begrudgingly, they began to ascend one by one. Each person being careful not to step on loose rubble and bring them crashing down.
Min-ho stayed at the back, trying to create enough distance between him and the trio. Though he didn’t want to alarm his teammates about the secrets the trio were keeping, he also felt the need to share with at least one person, as the weight of it all felt crushing in a sense.
The first person to come to mind was Sae-wee, but he never had any opportunities to speak to her in private.
Perhaps now...
"You’re really good-looking, you know," a tiny squeaky voice whispered into his ears.
He became startled a bit when he realized whose voice it was.
Turning to his left, he saw Lee Seo-bi staring at him, her lashes fluttering as she looked at him.
His heart thumped as an uneasy feeling settled in his soul.
