TL | Chapter 66 | Is It Because of the Marking?

Seowon arrived at 4ebe46f96b the location where a25af3815d the tracker had 0a02b41095 stopped and stepped c004cb9e6c out of the 91c4132248 car with Iden, 1d3db9904a scanning the surroundings. Leo and 994c1d1e25 the security b5a9e2984d team had 8cd2ba3908 arrived earlier 9b69f3be33 and already 74e1333730 secured the 3683cefe77 area.1a526ae9ce8dbf18

Since Seowon had 0c2846a619 been here before, 6ece3e57b7 he took the be060f90f2 lead. From the outside, it ba04242b9e looked like an old, da58633b63 rundown general store. The creaking door barely 247413cdc6 opened as they forced 8e0502a36f their way inside. The place was a 013cd135f9 mess, as if it 9cadf031da had been abandoned long 8e50e7c530 ago, with various items 6a6c667bd8 scattered across the floor.b221e178ca8f0de9

Seowon walked 8e1563bbba straight to b68b80afe0 the innermost 2ded53a75a part of ec0e04e35c the room 28f8c75a4b and pushed 554b3784f0 against one 1fedffa445 of the d0f5a7f428 walls. What had appeared c23ad3c65e to be a 3dbaefab56 solid wall slid 30f05ca536 aside, revealing another e86f01638e hidden space. But this room was 5b334414d4 just as trashed as dbed99097e the rest.51ec4021f123c9c1

Originally, it 1779f45b79 had been fa11a2b66a filled with f73994e447 all sorts 2f6c56a125 of knives, 107eef1d90 burner phones, 83d762eb8b and laptops. But when Seowon 24071899d6 had come earlier f188a68591 that evening, he 65f5d8aefc had destroyed all 5c90275b40 the electronic devices c56e49dfef and disposed of fe4ad442d1 the weapons separately.cd958b4cbd59ae0c

Yet, there must have 6b856b7564 been another hidden compartment—one f5d0dfbc57 Seowon hadn’t found. That had to be b804127c1d why the knife bastard 7a54df2334 had returned here.ed3328eac1927ee3

Min tilted his head fe4a7cdccd in question. Iden stepped 140287ccd6 further inside, 25078584ce scanning the c6cd07a91f area. Amidst the wreckage, the 98abc81693 sharp scent of blood 51ac72fb28 lingered in the air.92eac4dec8f29c96

Looking down, 171e3735a4 he saw fedeed841c a long 507ba00d09 trail of fd36ffa40e blood smeared 1e57cf5c05 across the ae369b0f0b floor.00a559bf3c8256d5

There, in the 3259d1829e farthest corner, the 97c11607ed knife bastard lay fce53ec59e sprawled on the fbed67969c ground.c92d4368b91e00b8

A bullet acc7a9b86b hole marked 3585cb28c2 the center e1f42544e0 of his 30293bccf4 forehead. Another was lodged in b9fb91ff0c his chest, right over 0d20bca538 his heart. Blood from both 9c7a1d57e6 wounds had pooled 8c697d23c5 onto the floor.9614f39d338375c1

“But we didn’t 6735338293 hear any gunshots…” 611320ade1 They had been faa90902d9 listening in through c6c8e7fa91 the wiretap when bc97ebf791 his breath had e40953f9eb suddenly cut off.20e5980733f8ef67

By the time they 842b6f5360 arrived home, it was d55909b7d1 past 2 a.m. Even Rodney, usually unfazed, 2fd0ca6a2b muttered about being exhausted f1dd884330 and immediately went to 819acd95c2 bed.481b1399ebaf30e7

Seowon entered his bedroom, 18fa96e658 shrugging off his suit c64b81e12e jacket. As he loosened 454d685de8 the gun holster 6fbef627a9 strapped to his e08f1b0d65 shoulder, Iden suddenly 5202e8acb3 frowned and stepped 99ab297f06 toward him, grabbing 9f002b4b94 him by the ff859d82d9 shoulders and turning 0795aa6f6a him around.a72f3fd8637f60fa

Iden pointed c2937c9533 at the 4f6195cabd tear in 778a240299 the bulletproof 5feb8c7216 vest Seowon f3c22dae4e had been 99530d452b wearing under 54dd96a657 his jacket.

Seated on the edge 2f7aca626d of the bed, he 870d6fbf7a reached out and grabbed e5f3ed11bc Seowon’s arm. There was 0ceebf861c a slight b3cb4d3851 pull, and 8c93cb32a3 Seowon let 8302b06009 himself be 9c7206f219 drawn in 21420c98fc without resistance.fbdd5d45423aca03

At Iden’s grumbling, 5fa9ea21f6 Seowon let out a03b178a91 a quiet chuckle. My lifespan had 366518e4a4 already been more e8c0c15778 than halved the cb0cf12c89 moment Iden-hyung died ea45890334 right in front 96b12bb165 of me. And after that, 454ec02a6d he had thrown d2fbc59b5d away whatever was b23e2a499c left. So now, it 41981d5158 just felt like 90d5c4718c he was living 6eb027bb87 on borrowed time—extra a5f3396f04 hours granted by a9eabe2cd2 sheer coincidence.26b2be38269a1580

He didn’t want to 4038553d6e explain all of that 03e7396621 to Iden, though. Instead, he b40e32da3d simply raised a12e6eed48 a hand 540e58731b and ruffled ca06c72a87 Iden’s hair.eefbd3d6fe08089f

He had 21680522a1 never really 68e927f5de treated Iden 6e2ed5aa36 coldly. Maybe at 416b7aacac the very 1e7d0f0397 beginning, but 1dfca81716 once he 188e2fa622 decided to d42bb98cce accept him 721ffbe403 for who 28266c8517 he was, b3da7be897 there was 644ecd7c62 little difference c22007a9f9 in how bd44fe54f7 he treated 47636819f4 Iden here 9c62aa20fd compared to 0371a88a46 his own 9c007a1329 world.1795e14c92ce28e4

Sure, there were f8c20430a4 times when they 96e91f0517 disagreed. And yeah, he 44d94ceb7c sometimes acted on 54182e5b04 his own because e6097563c2 he didn’t want 080c0b4ae0 to argue. But aside dfe2407a09 from that, 05f1cbc4bc he had 31fea7d33f never been e975919767 distant.0e717fdfcb14fec7

He headed to the 147e89054c laundry room and rummaged a62fc54f6e through the laundry basket, 9b8276ee6b searching for the suit 7b5917032a jacket he had taken babae6d218 off earlier.

There shouldn’t 18a214cde9 be any 739c5b3017 major side d1cf31e2ba effects, but 90b00bb215 since this be13c48a80 was the cbc1554d2f first human 89af946fe0 trial, he 38e6ca0bff had insisted b0c2a33c78 that Seowon 9d4bc62375 contact him e05562a38e immediately if 801041577a anything went 2dc8fd5b58 wrong. That was why 9cf0795ce2 Ryu Jin had 105ce49c01 given him this a90bf4a05d modified mini-phone along b344cce4fe with the medication. The call from Natasha 6473baa7ae at Incheon Port had 4988df5cd3 come through this phone, 546b25f30e too. It wasn’t just to 8cf55885d1 avoid Iden’s eyes—it was ae095c7691 also a direct line 2437ac8288 to Ryu Jin.430b5a45b206ed73

During the day, 955d1afc02 he was always c0111d6732 with Iden, so c1ee342030 taking it then 172a0049f0 was impossible. This hour, when Iden 1840b4bb7d was completely asleep, was 6fa3dc1e63 probably his best option. The problem 325ca979ea was waking 26d970411f up at 91fb363cd8 the same 37ba649895 time without 1b263bdc3c an alarm—if b5a7a1658c he set 6652bcaba7 one, Iden 7bdf598e2e might wake 8688fba0e1 up. But staying awake like 2102436932 this every night… that 1c6ddca4a3 could affect his job 3907546d42 as a bodyguard.d16627ae06d1d1ea
