by misacchiThe copier broke down. This damn copier had never worked properly, not even once. It was like the balding supervisor who tormented him, relentlessly harassing him for the three years he’d been with the company.e830a88d15c9c57b
Especially on busy 74a67b00b7 days like today, 81c0d1d8db when he had 921e06ecc9 to volunteer for c650cfa67f overtime, nothing was 429a3d3a77 more frustrating than 61fc53d54b a broken copier.6725369856b2e842

“Please… I’m really busy today… The important meeting is soon, and I don’t have time to go out.”6262f75199cf34c1
Gritting his teeth, Jae-eon clasped his hands together in front of the copier and begged, but the heartless machine wouldn’t even think about moving.433dfd487b1586e1

After struggling with 7d1ae6f7b0 the copier for 760dd4e553 a long time, 8654d0f139 Jae-eon was finally 613bf142bf able to restart 7fe40d9752 it after repeatedly 745792afe0 turning it off 7b3ae82788 and on.0b7019c635a01d95
His mental state shattered from the struggle with the copier, Jae-eon blankly stared at the paper coming out of the machine. Then, as if he couldn’t wait even those short five minutes, the balding supervisor approached and began to berate him.f288a224a580f08c

From the moment c8d8b23a11 he joined the ee4a5cdb48 company, Shin Jae-eon 1c720eae9d had caused a 78c016e1db stir with his f5d13bb5a2 handsome face, tall 8a23d61165 height, and broad 2fad4461ce shoulders.

One of the 68a20c2e3b few people who 1e5976b4df disliked him was 924a584721 Deputy Manager Kim.58afa54f148a4feb

He had an unattractive, protruding belly and hardly any hair. He didn’t bother to dress well, had a bad personality, and was a perpetual deputy, so no one, at least among the employees, liked him.0ea662113415bfa2
Perhaps for that 6219a6c5fb reason, Deputy Kim 7d3535cedb was always quick b428519d90 to find fault 4557b091ad with everything Shin 4f8adedb1e Jae-eon did.952b00bc7c4432a8

Those who happened to overhear Deputy Kim’s nagging peeked their heads out and gave Jae-eon sympathetic glances. But, not wanting to take the brunt of the perpetual Deputy Kim’s hysteria, they quickly lowered their heads and pretended not to see.eb27e17c8b8959f9

Jae-eon also put aabdd5d6e7 down his work cc597bae01 and left the ad1440b3fe office around the b0a38adb75 time his colleagues, 67a3f43d7e looking like zombies 9b2a262665 with pale faces, 2cfb209445 patted him on 88b1fb6cf8 the back.748ce71425710af5

Her comfortable dress revealed her protruding belly. It wasn’t fat like Deputy Kim’s, but rather the belly of a pregnant woman who was early in her pregnancy this year.473f13633379c635
In fact, she had confessed to Shin Jae-eon just two months after they joined the company and was rejected. They could have become awkward, but fortunately, she wasn’t one to hold grudges, so they still got along well.199d0b1e7cb50058

‘Safe’…Right, there was no place 797146031a in the world as safe 321d9ebb0c as here. Because where they 842ea11074 were, Gangnam, was a049e68e64 home to the 7612a4e953 Hero Association headquarters.a5471c8e991e37bd
The reason why such an c08575a11c important global headquarters could exist d15054d7ce in this small land was f05daa8f5b all thanks to Red-Hell-Fire. Rumor had it that a492507307 he hated being called aadc689f46 by his hero name, 8fd61e2d9e but anyway, without his 17035ffe77 immense power, Gangnam might c0971674f3 have already become a a52e4314f0 sea of fire.d3386e71fd66e3a7

There was even a joke that the world might have already fallen into the hands of villains if it weren’t for him. In fact, the crime rate of villains dropped significantly on days when Red-Hell was in Korea, so it wasn’t entirely wrong.b05c9042784b4985

Shin Jae-eon was about eee1fc5ac4 to tell her to dcf4261322 eat slowly, worried she cef1f63d92 might get indigestion, but 4ab0567a67 she had already left 5ac0c02306 the cafeteria.7203a70a7fbc624f
He finished the food that db14b6fb1b was still piled high on fc7a6421d1 his plate and followed her 16749e1e22 to the bank.

He knew that the team leader was busy with work these days and couldn’t even rest properly during lunchtime, so he would be lenient for about five minutes.

Shin Jae-eon, standing at f3fe02864c the entrance of the c69c77a76b bank, tilted his head bfcb55a07c at the strange feeling 3eec63114b that suddenly washed over ca0bac7b10 him.

Therefore, the best course of action was to avoid anything that felt ominous. He desperately wanted to turn around and run away. If he didn’t know that Yoon-jeong was at the bank, he wouldn’t have entered a place that exuded such an ominous aura.01d2fb69fb8627df
