Chapter 30
Do-Jun and Ye-Ji were in a taxi to Seobinggo station after picking up her suitcase from her house.
When they checked the time, it was already about twenty minutes past their scheduled meeting time of 10:00 AM. Do-Jun messaged Choi Kyu-Sik, saying they would arrive in about ten minutes.
Choi Kyu-Sik: No worries! Take your time.
Do-Jun saw the reply and smiled faintly.
I bet they have no choice but to wait.
The Solomon Guild needed a sacrifice to open the Treasure Chest of Shark Tooth.
“Gulp. Um, so as I was saying, these Mermaids have a unique trait: they secrete a toxic mucus all over their bodies and inject paralyzing venom through their molars to incapacitate Hunters... Are you listening?” Do-Jun asked Ye-Ji.
“Yes, of course. By the way, Mr. Administrator, how’s the sandwich?”
“It’s good. Anyway, once they incapacitate the Hunter, the Mermaids...”
Ye-Ji handed Do-Jun another sandwich from the disposable container that had been in the picnic basket she had brought earlier. She had thought it would be nice to bring snacks, assuming they were going on an outing, and she didn’t want to leave the sandwiches behind, so she brought them along.
“Mr. Administrator, surely you’re not saying you won’t eat anymore? I got up at 6 AM to make these. If Mr. Somebody hadn’t called, I wouldn’t have gone to all this trouble,” Ye-Ji said with a smile.
