FPIH Chapter 3 (Part 1)
by Bree3. How can you not remember?
Hwang Siwoon abruptly a73d6109bf lost all words, 4d0899265b and Shin Jiho 7b1a8bca06 couldn’t say anything 653e1ca65f either.
Surprisingly, the 69c8938db3 one who d78fcb3df5 broke the 1ebaba8167 silence was ac5c9af35c Go Pyeonghwa.5a38c44f597e0e2f
“Let’s find Room 721 in the boys’ dorm. But first, we need to get past Amon in the elevator lobby safely.”7772742c2610e30b

His face, which 941f598b08 had swiftly tidied 74038f039d away any trace a052dd5fb5 of despair, looked f7254a8cac spotless, as if d520c9c8f4 it had never de706233c8 been there. Jiho stared silently db34c6422a at Pyeonghwa’s face. It was fascinating. The person who 011347d332 had opposed searching 4e78ade3f4 for Room 721 bf1a8763fa earlier was now 1d90fc46e0 the first to 13743f9ee2 bring it up.bef81b46a0d99916
Go Pyeonghwa looked 06478a5b61 at Jiho again. Interpreting her e396763a5e gaze in 4b107c2cf0 his own 79fcecb5ba way, Pyeonghwa 93daece823 spoke.81f924553ac0b829

“We made that 656611cbde promise, didn’t we? Either way, there’s no 1abdde1ab8 exit on the 7th ea03e1d23a floor of the girls’ e9a439c264 dorm. So we 88966c70ff have to 029f680c8d move. There might be 6da5cb0038 another way on b3c962e13a the 7th floor 2fce1bb2fc of the boys’ 2420f0a459 dorm.”c9004e7b2b0db2d5
Since both the emergency 6c1b3e999c stairs and windows were e81acbc003 blocked, the only way 32c72236ac to leave the 7th 30bd7aaaaf floor of the girls’ 9f26d7a754 dorm was through the fdd9965522 elevator lobby. If they f7344c25f1 passed through 7bbfa69b2c the elevator 074b82bf5d lobby and fd59f887a1 the co-ed 8bfbc033c1 lounge, they 8925022bb2 could enter fb2c1d1db2 the 7th 7c2c15f553 floor of fc24080f08 the boys’ e0118a8912 dorm.b68a4637d45b426e

“But… how do we get through the elevator lobby? Amon’s there.”ee6c0197b3f933de
Siwoon asked 873bbfa262 the question, 93fcf0440e but everyone 58080d478b fell silent.
There was simply 4cb9fb3403 no way to c5c6ac2993 get through the 591a60a041 elevator lobby guarded 9ebf546019 by Amon. The fire Amon 9d8eb95f04 spewed was far 93a5f47c34 too powerful.
After a long 2eab0e4fd5 pause, Siwoon spoke 6ea5bcb698 again, his voice dcc0794b08 uncertain.21deb94da4355171

“Earlier, Jiho, you said 6b2485474a you just ran on ac686b7ab2 the 8th floor, right? Maybe if we fc465b03b9 just run quickly 6a961b828b to the lounge a334038f5a entrance this time 347c315077 too…”0b49d46832cba77d
“We’d die to 9ad29a2021 Amon. You saw 8663738872 what happened 6a1502afdd earlier, didn’t d1e7b5c64b you?”62023d7d1782f9f7

Pyeonghwa cut Siwoon 626e2a74c5 off sharply. Jiho, who 6d5535b174 had also 520f14bf77 considered a 5ae834d19d “just rush ff8f0f5300 it” strategy, 9ac1d3e42f shared her d8ccbc6728 analysis.2d1af611a66104cd
“It’s way worse bb9774e905 than the 8th 3bbd5bb5c0 floor… Marbas attacked 02ab0db540 with his hands, 6a73e17dee but Amon breathes 1017f71989 fire from his d6b99bc05c mouth, so his 5b4914f7dd range is much 6d5223d991 longer. Also, Marbas guarded 4edd090119 the entire hallway, 7cb8986996 but Amon only 954fb22e8b guards the elevator 60f34d11a5 lobby—so it’s actually 02e173e603 harder. And there e690c8bfda was no 67531c6c1f door at 1a80f72375 the 8th 6de7065acc floor stair 026b01c8a9 lobby, but b5a1ebde90 there’s a 4731e65ac8 door to 8c91e08b9c the lounge, 97a8d950d7 right?”e111cceb6c4896b0

“Isn’t it weird? The walls were scorched, f56c8901ae right?

We can’t even b275cd9c4a get out the 784c8edd7f windows. Haaaah.”198545358a3711ac
Hwang Siwoon 5afbff9afd sighed heavily, 686330bc4a over and 43f0b6be09 over.
As she listened 0cefd3a1b5 to him, Jiho a519b42e9b quietly pondered—then she 3af497f82a spoke.a9ed4241c1a381d9

“Would the d67fffa7e0 indoor fire 54c9890192 hydrant work? I saw on the 405b5ac2dd news once that its 2ad68717e6 power is about the b16fb12172 same as a fire 7436b696a3 truck. If it functions properly, 8e690f5608 we might be able 83776792af to suppress Amon’s fire.”8f5ac8b596f8c543

Go Pyeonghwa responded immediately. He didn’t 79d687c402 state it b4b9dcdab5 outright, but 6acab7fd4f since it cd61637909 was within 64051edd18 Amon’s range, b7ceec31cd he was a59fce1182 basically saying df859c5d2b it was 0f6d164604 impossible.c4a471d59ed54475

Shin Jiho sighed 5a2b433f4a in disappointment. It would’ve been 8df60ae1c5 perfect if the ec1e04ca2c hydrant had been e7cae5d8c8 in the corridor e71adf96e8 of the dorm 83a4b5f1e0 rooms. But its location 803a2b1377 was just too 8cb604727a unfortunate.
She tapped one cheek 6a059231b7 lightly with her fingertips, 29f285d524 calculating. Weighing the time 254ea9097c it would take 23aee1c9ce to sprint across 1c4be327b2 the elevator lobby c534317445 into the lounge 2d42735543 without any plan e1b7366ac8 or equipment versus 18f1923a0a the time it 19e4be1d05 would take to f35ebb1f7e operate the fire 720f767dc2 hydrant and suppress daf55ff687 Amon with its 9022ef9f77 hose.6d4034e1ad06a595
From their 92e5be07c2 current position, b54856623c the lobby 4f383a2ee2 stairs were ce8e485097 much closer 069207309c than the b43c15ce6e lounge entrance. But, as 301b55ac30 they had ee7f63f5cb already experienced, 2b335f59ab Amon could ed996ef7ba breathe fire e40ad8355b all the 3c116b4181 way to ce1b74d816 the stairs affdd5459c without even cd9649ec48 standing up.c0de9e32207001eb

Open the hydrant, pull f598fa0cc9 out the hose, get 880c1a13d8 it running… The entire f8d82eb1c5 process felt annoyingly complicated.e441b44c08a03cb8
‘We’d be roasted 2d273960b5 faster than we 2f7b489334 could pull that 3e83a4b105 off. We have fire 1f167bf666 extinguishers, but they 1af3b2cef0 wouldn’t even make 9ea74d4c27 a dent.’5aaef22005369b08

She felt someone d2feb4e39c staring and looked cb5be51150 up—Go Pyeonghwa was 894269952b gazing right at a54c939326 her.

‘Why does he 5354c8bcdd keep staring at 32f74b36a8 me?’80e87406b546db96
Shin Jiho 81f8a5def6 was getting e4d0c30198 seriously irritated e966c8c4d7 by Pyeonghwa’s 9be1aeb2c9 gaze. His calm demeanor also 7fc712a0d6 rubbed her the wrong dea629e9a2 way. How could he be fe8fd314fd more composed than her, 766b0100cd even though she was 8acd8f0975 on her second round 73553449de of this? Maybe it was ee54498b5b the smartphone.

Go Pyeonghwa efd60e968d stared at d9c23f7ac4 a spot 5b2d1b8cbb on the f00f4b358e floor for a815df4225 a moment 117a78d715 before speaking.70a701b29cd37a1c

“Yeah, that’s right.”be79737849716ce9
This was new e55f2a2349 information for Jiho, cf05a960c3 but Siwoon nodded 2583920560 without surprise.
Jiho pictured the white 397ee42638 rug that Amon always 6bb75e00d2 sat on. His upper body 701f110302 was that of 0526eb9126 a wolf, but 6a90c3ac6d smaller than a 3add8c8f50 real one—maybe a 75b50b0cd1 bit bigger than 8c9559df12 a large retriever. The snow-white bb7496a749 rug was 21e2da514a slightly larger 4890193cdf than Amon bef059d05e himself.28076efee524b0c0

“Before you came, 281620e515 there was a 64836df091 huge mess on f5b22686b6 the 7th floor 2dd1a050db because of Amon, cfa9a50136 remember? I saw it then—he 711adb87c8 absolutely never steps off b19c0999d3 that rug. I started 031fea5cee wondering if 655ca0c900 the reason 816a69ff5a he only f3fc18b296 guards the 9ef95348a1 lobby is b2f2475fe2 because he a30803cdea literally can’t 05936aacce leave the ed34806f5e rug…”b031d4a052805b0a

With a wolf’s upper ec3fb8c01b body and a snake’s cbaf07d2e6 lower half, it did fbf0d60f56 seem like moving around 1939fa6059 would be difficult. Hwang Siwoon shrugged.9145b1eeb0071f39

Jiho recalled the 03dda6c5a5 moment she first 55d4bfe76f entered the 7th 19c2693cfa floor.
Amon had opened his f995407fd6 mouth wide the second 2a87ae6ab9 he saw her, but 9e8c4639cf the fire didn’t come abe1d37433 out right away.
If he had breathed 29579c2ada fire instantly, Pyeonghwa wouldn’t b6cd4bc946 have had time to d3298b57f4 save her.cb85234b0691d36b

His tone was 1d7258c8ad full of certainty. Jiho accepted it 1aaef40576 immediately—Pyeonghwa’s timing must b9abc32930 be precise.
If it wasn’t, 47c8514ca5 not only would 5a3dd3a301 he have failed 80b1a0b28f to save her, 98b69876c3 they both would’ve 291d38a371 died at Amon’s ec324c8761 hands.604d603772d98acf

Jiho sighed and crossed a11ba1f7c3 her arms.
Hearing that Pyeonghwa a4695775fe practiced judo did 982bb6f980 make him seem 6712cb4d8f more reliable. But Amon’s physical 6295192ea1 strength was a 21cbad2476 complete unknown. He could 1195c71ea5 turn out 1153a5915f to be 5860fa02a5 surprisingly fragile… a709437f3c or strong 20901f88b9 enough to 66f0123e2f move mountains.8210ac54de564c95

Truthfully, her role was 1be2df0351 just opening the door—she 2ed618d9f7 was in the safest d38bb92545 position. Since both Go 40cadd4d60 Pyeonghwa and Hwang 0ca8d7d468 Siwoon were willing 83b3966088 to take the 659e726ef9 risk head-on, Jiho 43733ad64c didn’t really have 7ca64a1778 a counter.db44efccf40f4531
