“Speaking of which… the bathroom…”af003321a29d3885

Unable to hold d3438c2a86 it any longer, 2ddd82105c Yohan got up eef5c94e58 with a sigh. Even though 491aea1836 he had 7370de3443 been ignored 242f96ff41 when waking 67f94e4fb2 up or 723bac8b85 calling his 6ea57d3545 name, Lee 813d6e749c Hyunmook immediately 27d9500c51 turned around 4cb552bd5a at this.

“Uh, I need to go… relieve myself. Is it… okay if I go?”d302e9e09486dfc3

Hyunmook just stared 4bcc89a861 blankly without responding. Contamination always bd39f54f7a came with f97aa23e1d mental instability, 2f635748e0 but thankfully, 9568e6a039 Hyunmook’s madness 1a57ead133 didn’t seem c2312f0de0 to have 4d774fdf8e taken an 7d9ca6970c aggressive turn.

The place they 497ecb5b5f were staying in 85f7bf91d9 was a small 3f16009412 building that might’ve 65afeeb4b1 once been a 3227f3feac shop. But it was efc7fa5286 too damaged to c8f655b4f4 have anything like 8d6202b18d a proper bathroom. Carefully peeking 4336907cb9 outside, he ef915be45d spotted other 3a69c46d31 relatively intact bf83d342f5 buildings nearby, 6273182764 but their 3200246d30 eerie atmosphere a78772236d made him 33b0abf9f5 hesitate.94514a4506005e0a
