Chapter 205
“That was a truly terrible experience, so I understand your distress. But drinking like this isn’t good for your health.”
Yuhanul consoled Lee Geonhong, who had been drinking heavily.
“Even if you get drunk, it won’t change the painful reality. You need to take care of yourself first.”
“...I don’t know. Is there even a reason for me to take care of myself?”
Lee Geonhong sniffled, his face flushed from the alcohol.
“I’ve been thinking about this ever since I got here. Why did they send me on this mission with a car that ran out of gas? And why were my companions other foreigners like me? Was it all a setup to send us to our deaths?”
“Lee Geonhong, Hunter.”
“Surviving was a stroke of luck, but here, no one speaks the same language, and I’m stuck alone in this situation, so all I’ve been thinking is negative thoughts. Honestly, I feel like I’m losing my mind.”
Lee Geonhong tried to take another drink, but the bottle was empty now.
“To be honest, I want to go back to Korea. Forget the money, I’m sick of China.”
“Well then, you should go through the process to return...”
“That’s not something I can do on my own. I came to Suzhou, but the city’s administrator won’t let me leave.”
