Chapter 260
Chug, chug.
During the morning rush hour, the subway was packed with office workers as it sped along the tracks. Despite it being the middle of winter, the sheer number of people made the air stiflingly warm. For some, this was the worst part of the day, but Do-Jun didn’t mind it one bit. In fact, he actually enjoyed it. It gave him a feeling that he was living a normal, ordinary life, no different from anyone else.
One particular dragon, however, disagreed with him. Yong-Yong peeked his head out from inside Do-Jun’s briefcase and looked at the subway map.
“K-keugh... W-we’re almost there... It’s almost over...” He confirmed there were only three stops left before they would arrive.
Perhaps the crowded environment made Yong-Yong uncomfortable. Do-Jun smirked at the sight.
“By the way, Master, that guy’s not coming to work today, right?” Yong-Yong asked. The “guy” he referred to was none other than Cheol-Soo.
Do-Jun shook his head briefly.
Yong-Yong often tagged along to Seoul City Hall with Do-Jun, but recently he had started choosing days when Cheol-Soo was off-duty. The reason was simple: every time they met, Cheol-Soo would relentlessly pinch Yong-Yong’s cheeks, pull at his face, or hug him. It was nothing short of annoying.

Yong-Yong’s expression soured as he entered the office with Do-Jun. Someone was seated at the head of the Fissure Exploration Unit’s section—a seat that was supposed to be empty. The person was leaning on one hand, staring at a monitor.
Do-Jun placed his bag on his desk and said, “Chief, are you working today?”
“Yeah. Turns out I don’t have anything to do at home, anyway.”
