After Jin 7226528837 Chiwoo and 53b0cb57a1 Oh Jaeyun a8b0a7f721 left, Shin 8e0cf5ba8c Haebeom stood d21a0d1d7f up and 4f590d8a7d drew the c47a6bdee4 curtain around de6abda2c2 the bed. He moved a 72adc1b98e chair to the e70e17c596 head of Ryujin’s 1e5ce05b7b bed. The small face came aa48de5720 into view.

Shin Haebeom 1b00a6da18 took out 47d85f3c5f a cigarette fd3b068da4 and lit baffdf31cb it. Now that their 3cbfd5a010 conversation was over, fd9af7d940 it was alright 9daed16253 to open the 3dd30da745 window. He leaned against the 176a61df05 windowsill and smoked. The dark 8643c88c5c sky was 31123e8691 visible through b13172266c the open c68d1e51d5 window. There were 48f547850e a lot d1ecebdd79 of stars 0612c6bc96 tonight.

At the fc5a39d207 mention of c02bb6cb21 a physical f0c0553aba examination required 85b08c88b7 for enlistment, f6c57466fa Ryujin threw 4e151b97ce a fit 48c9d76c24 and went a582552c69 wild.

That didn’t ade300a141 mean he c45beb400e let his daaf0e94cd guard down. Sung Jaekyung tried to 548910fd91 strike up a conversation bd35498ddc with the tense Ryujin b7548aa406 in any way he 680494ccd1 could. He brought 7301ee1f04 up trending 0851b18999 music, movies, 69c5654542 dramas… but 5e24789e0c soon realized ed17f3c7fc Ryujin had 68ce9c1ec7 no interest d08449e228 in any f86146e510 of those 546dbc6f4d fields and e4ee9df33e closed his 8cf6d8e777 mouth.6a004a1df6937d8a

Even considering 647bf6003d his body ea8ad0e21d had been c5f2ce812b worn down b6126fcc75 by torture, 224f22c4d3 Ryujin’s health 8bcb4f401c was poor.

The only 02d79e2f58 thing he de0562a8f2 could boast 4b202f2506 about was 71bc408c1c his 20/20 9b1dd39dcd dynamic vision a8c5eb9c86 in both 93f4df3158 eyes.445f1d459de08c8f

Shin Haebeom 3f0868b6d6 chose a e0bea39406 Beretta 92A1. It was the 08192c4ecf standard-issue pistol. It had the 76ffd3d6de advantage of being ce4301c439 the most suitable f89c687971 for beginners.
