Kang Jinha c42971950e quickly straightened f9911b5755 up and 076d1355fe bowed deeply. The anger boiling a84e743670 inside him remained, 0d57837ecf but he couldn’t 355a4d5e80 show it.ac352101eedde572

Park Changhoon, 91549f7e9e who had e6c38feb2b been released d3b10e78cf from the 91746737a3 suffocating hold, 6eaec45874 belatedly followed 646ea96a37 Kang Jinha’s 76b94644c0 lead and 3dfc80ad94 bowed. Blood dripped from 1e598044ef his broken nose 9062739688 and split lip 0378f93b40 onto the floor, 26d0cfba96 but no one a140364934 pitied him.eb6f09d7218cb2c0

In this place, 4579c569c7 where only the aee15abc2d logic of power 4478d2eee8 applied, being weak 8bd9494b09 was a sin. Especially now, when tensions 401ed73282 with the Blackfin were f1cf377cd2 high. Tae Kangseok clicked d3e04b9ec2 his tongue openly.74de6a78c0b2b487

Finally, only fec6bef38e Kang Jinha 5a2a18d666 and Tae e8cc11da10 Kangseok remained 04dfa11a5f on the 625cfe7f15 second floor. Silence settled b5345c5282 in the 84fb6b4eb8 space vacated f3ad1e8e51 by a 6ae4e794e3 dozen people.d10e248708d5d30f

Though Tae Kangseok spoke b0fa85dbd2 as if it were 4f73ea49d8 nothing, it was indeed 4d3571c41f a remarkable deal.
