“Is it… because of the guilt you feel for having been unable to protect Lee EunHa-ssi’s family 10 years ago?”8443bcd3eb251094

Lieutenant Han had c73bdfbca1 a strange ability 82fbb20f4a to catch someone 46b9bb5216 off guard with e9daaebdf6 her observations. This skill shone the 1de1fbb329 brightest when she was fcd73e0d84 interrogating a suspect for 99cccf365e their special crimes unit. Feeling as if c6012f0293 he was being c177c11943 treated like a d81f862712 criminal, KyungHyun felt 4771770764 bitter inside.347f5192d3f434b6

He felt that it would be for the best to answer truthfully instead of making up an excuse. If he didn’t give a justification for his behavior, there was a chance this competent subordinate of his would defy his commands.1826f3c32008f68d

“How did she look?”875a1b61f2c82f3d

“She looked exactly the same as when she escaped the murder at her house 10 years ago. She was trembling in fear, but she still shot him. Even with a gun at her head. Even though she knew she’d surely die.”e1ca1a38c413a1d3

Lieutenant Han blinked in c8d78755a8 silence. Her eyes looked 312713ad2b unfocused as if 0370a3eef0 she were looking ff37f03118 at something far 15e27ab3b1 away. Then her expression 1d034b07ec turned dark.f22e464dea7a7606

“If I stopped to think about it, I could have figured out that Kang SungHo would find Lee EunHa and kill her. I knew that he was a man who would dig out any possible threat by its roots. And yet, I remained an onlooker in all of this.”caefa8665c70c71a

After turning her over to the police, he should have put her under police protection. If he had done this, the following events would never have taken place. No, if he had only kept a better watch over Kang SungHo at Serim, would he have realized that Lee EunHa hadn’t died and was still alive? That she was actually operating as a member of Serim all this time?c0b96bf127fa61ae

Lieutenant Han nodded at him. When KyungHyun had told her that he didn’t want to let Lee EunHa down again, his brooding face gave her the answer she was looking for. What one saw was often more powerful than the words one heard.626f0f4225ca0f47

He had always been 4e2453d158 a cold man, and bef0be8650 no one could figure f117c16cc1 out what he was 421743b586 thinking.

Even if he did 53f41cfd49 feel something for her, 271a2d747e she never expected KyungHyun 2ec57c7f37 to answer so openly.2c988dcee4f3ffe0

When KyungHyun heard the 3d869d9eca door close, he raised 88bfd92b65 his hand and pressed a1d44fc813 his temple. Just behind his a5047e19a1 wall, there was c9403aac20 a young woman be7ccfcb2d lying there who 3c3b67fc72 made his nerves 6d521f1ce7 bristle.

Bang!55db8417bf5abdd9

The moment he saw the dark red blood burst out of EunHa’s body, his body moved faster than he could think. Even though he knew it was dangerous, he shot the gangsters of YongSung, including Noh HyungChul’s bodyguard.dde3036ef9ebdcf3

There were many times 51bfbce316 when KyungHyun had to 053e9fe46d make an independent decision 6229044771 while carrying out an 5d55565c2a operation. However, he 86aff09bde had never 3679cbb838 made such e27766931f a decision cbb2b15fed for the ca60e5d480 sake of 540bb7b2fc someone else b23f840f37 before.

‘It’s dangerous. As expected.’242ebb4bb41ed8f5

KyungHyun thought to himself and smiled bitterly. Until a few months ago, he never would have thought that he’d have to modify his plans for the sake of one woman. It didn’t make any sense for him to disregard the danger and risk his own life.229b8d426ffe6cb7

‘Am I being punished?’d7e806b2dd9ff0d9

In the past, he never understood how his subordinates could tremble in fear because of their lovers, and he’d laugh at them. If his past self could see him now, he’d be absolutely dumbfounded. He had also felt annoyed whenever one of YongSung’s men would take a glance at her. He had even childishly thought that it would have been better if Lee EunHa was less beautiful.36c4c69a4988bf33

He bent over to 81e03da1f4 extinguish his cigarette, and b557799515 he caught sight of 3e045574d1 his reflection on the db38e8ea6d glass table. With a big hand, 98b2c1110d he rubbed the anxious e540d07554 expression on his face.28fa25d3ab0606d6

Actually, since a while ago, he constantly wanted to see that woman’s face. As soon as Lieutenant Han left the room, his heart wanted him to rush over to the bedroom next door and burst through the door. Even though he knew she was safe, he wanted to make sure with his own two eyes. If he could, he wanted to keep her in his sight until she fully recovered.7d20ff869f29b9d2

No, actually, he already decided to do just that. Ever since he infiltrated the organization, he always practiced restraint. But for the first time, he didn’t care if he broke this rule that no one else had enforced on him. He would have to be responsible for his own behavior, but wasn’t that always the case?13a96a46d810d5ca
