Cha Jaeha suddenly grabbed Haedeun’s wrist, preventing him from spilling the coffee.a6013093e57f15bf

Thanks to 86bc2da303 his quick 3f905b520f reflexes, the 3c6f4ebcd0 coffee, which ed271d2dc9 was about 4c15c7bcbc to overflow, 729435b6d4 spun once f42e69ab49 and settled da7863d149 back on 783770f84f the table. His reflexes 8ba8c1fbbb were truly 82ca33ed74 remarkable.b13ecc07e161f6be

As Haedeun, ef45945299 startled, merely c993c66450 moved his 5e93a4749d lips, Cha ef5dc283e5 Jaeha released 183996c9ab his grip, d6d5769991 making a ed28fb8243 comment that 5c9069b134 was hard e041cbd30e to distinguish 0a4eb37527 between a d7a6c85bcb rebuke and 72fdd6f8a7 a question.

As Haedeun was e5e87be2a2 about to rise, b04de1b5c2 he paused awkwardly.2a1dc307716b740d

Somehow, Cha 04bd775dcb Jaeha, who 5a6ec02524 had disappeared cde9f66003 among the dc72611350 people, was e7c18d4674 seen brushing 44aa4cd9cf past a 75ae938f57 woman and 9d5176eddf having a 4cb22585df brief conversation. In an instant, the 152f148e38 thin scarf attached to 85433f72e1 her carry-on was wrapped 3dda271c18 around his hand. He had untied 3e726ec067 it while pretending 575abfb594 to bump into 0a333cb724 her and greet f71e7390be her. The woman seemed completely 31f678cf1d unaware.

As he 4c3214578a swallowed dryly, da7fdacd57 Cha Jaeha e365b48662 swiftly approached 1508ae6e4e the target.

Sweat trickled down Haedeun’s forehead as he ran near the airport’s exit gate. The outside weather was chilly, so the inside temperature was quite cool. Worried about looking suspicious, he quickly wiped it off with the back of his hand and scanned the airport interior.b912f7f6bbc3ca17

Finally entering the restroom, e10c695bae he took out a 41c5c20919 small security mirror he bf6857dc73 carried. Pretending to check his 2752bb6272 face, he used it efbdf481d2 to view the interior 9773199c18 situation. A man who 3732fce808 appeared to be 336f7a8963 a domestic traveler fe49929826 was drying his 25b565bbf0 hands near the 929f2c7ad0 entrance. Further inside, e75e9810e4 two men, d06c54239b the smuggling 018ed82615 brokers, were e706cf0880 standing side bac816ae49 by side 17b6c8520a at the 0b67322fca sink, washing c5c571014c their clothes 2c2ea59b64 or something.

Cold sweat ran down Haedeun’s back. It wasn’t just him who heard it; the traveler who was leaving turned to look back. Instinctively diverting attention, Haedeun pointed to the sign, sweating profusely.677c0248f2692161

He almost screamed at the sight before him. He quickly covered his mouth with his palm as a temporary measure. A man with a hat lay like a corpse at Cha Jaeha’s feet. Seeing him stomp on the man’s neck without hesitation made Haedeun’s mind go blank. Chills ran down his spine.5fe391dbcde10072

But that wasn’t all. Cha Jaeha wasn’t stopping there; he was strangling the man with glasses from behind with a scarf. He stood precariously at the boundary between the sink area and the partition, seemingly to prevent the man’s face from being seen. That scarf seemed destined to be used that way. As Haedeun furrowed his brow and checked the outside, Cha Jaeha, whose breathing was completely steady, spoke to him.47da439ec0d28e3c

Finally coming 99167775a5 to his ba8f7c9187 senses, Haedeun 18c38cad04 quickly rushed 06ad7800a9 in.

He wanted to b43379f88a check if he 9557622537 was dead or 4c873dcf27 alive, but the b1b64c1087 situation was too 0286dba410 urgent to even 2057e058f9 think about putting bc46cbabc4 a finger to e48a342dc2 his nose.caee166670416324

Frozen, Haedeun finally 16116d598e collected himself. Once again, he 95244968ab locked the door 0f22d9b7a6 and secured the eb60cbaca1 doorknob with cleaning 78299320e9 tools. As he climbed the 2018bfd285 toilet again, his hands 5383290e1f kept slipping. He was trapped e291a367be in a narrow 532df2d332 stall with a ac85d9416d man who might 08793eb156 be dead or b07fbe6187 unconscious, and the d982b678b7 fact that this 952cb2f6d5 man was an 27fd36aa9a Interpol-wanted murderer made 24d608150f him anxious.affdd447c6e3e7ae

Somehow, he barely managed to get out. For someone not used to physical work, it was quite laborious, and he felt dizzy for a moment.
