Chapter 84: Life is Like a Boomerang
"Excuse me, is anyone inside?"
Knock knock knock. The sound of knocking echoed through the quiet hangover soup restaurant. Along with it came a small but clear mutter.
"Are they asleep..."
He could tell just from the voice. It was Yoon Ga-eul, the one who had shown him the world within the fragments. If it weren't for this situation, she would have been a welcome guest... Cha Eui-jae glanced at the corner. Hong Ye-seong was lying on the floor, his head raised and listening intently. He looked like a lizard surveying its surroundings.
'Of all times, this guy had to be here...'
Cha Eui-jae met Hong Ye-seong's eyes and mouthed silently.
"Do you know her?"
Hong Ye-seong nodded seriously with a grave expression. Cha Eui-jae stifled a sigh and twisted his lips. Damn it, do rankers get together periodically for meals or something?
'How do they all know each other, damn it.'
There was another hesitant knock. Knock knock. Hong Ye-seong, who had extended his neck, asked in a low voice.
"No matter how I see it, it doesn't seem like they're looking for me. Do you know that person, Secretary?"
"..."
