Chapter 10: Alice in wonderland
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8rmszANUo
It was after we had a simple dinner that I had to listen to the manager and apologize all the way back to the company.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvMjqjMYDJ
"....Don't worry. Hahaha….I'll buy alcohol and brainwash Mr. Lee into thinking it's all a joke, so it's okay...So is Mr. Lee…."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka4ceGiFj6
I was about to say I was starting to feel tired, when suddenly I heard a faint vibration somewhere.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLDX7EGb1l
"Mr. Lee has a very poor drink, so if I say it over and over again that it's a joke...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIJ7IGiW1x
"You have a phone."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFAsCrKGHV
He pointed to the cell phone next to him.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JQ7u2HxJW
He stopped talking and looked at his phone, then happily pulled over to the side of the road, quickly putting on his headset to connect. When I was wondering who called him and was so happy, I saw the name Chief Park’' on the phone screen.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbhqHy2cja
Ah, that Chief Park who was sobbing. When I recalled the person who interviewed me, the voice of the manager sitting next to me suddenly became strange.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0wgzeXThn
"….Yes? Chief Park….What do you mean?....Why am I being disciplined?....Yes…..Yes, that is true. But, that's not what I mean…..But it's not that I have any objections, it's that all scheduled classes are suddenly canceled, so I just wanted to ask...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGlxQoGly6
While he unconsciously raised his voice, he looked at me and lowered his voice.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvQmmJtlHj
"Wasn't it the company's fault that the originally registered classes were canceled ?.....I got it. I understand. But did Chief Park check why it was canceled? No, I'm not making excuses, I'm just explaining why I was disciplined for being against the officer in charge. And if I don't have that much of an opinion, how can I be a manager...Yes, yes.... I got it."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqLzpVZWSF
Tut…Tut....
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L1ST1PhAx
"...Haa…"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewT89vWrWl
Manager hung up the phone with a serious face, looked at the phone screen for a long time. Then remained the same and opened his mouth.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZYPQk0Khz
"Taemin ah, why don't you ask me what happened....Go..on..."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45nuxYFCUx
"What happened?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQrGvHELEd
He raised his eyes but his expression remained unchanged, the eyes of a normally gentle human were now darkened. It was clear that he was angry.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMrkxQ8XIJ
"Do you remember I called the person in charge of your canceled classes this morning? That's the problem. I was reported threatening an employee so now I have to pay a fine from my supervisor.....here. So I won't get the basic operation fee for a month."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOg0qnXduO
There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes remained dark. Instead of being silent, I slowly spoke up.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcC2b6DnFI
"Then I guess it can't be helped. Seems like there's no choice but to give up on the lessons."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD07NS5DzRS
"!!"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wEIyAqBan
"I'll be fine, for learning I can just go to prep schools....."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUakXjPws7
"It can't be fine!! Because it's so absurd....Obviously your scheduled classes are all canceled by Myeongshin. "
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVLqycU8Sn
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his mouth and lowered his eyes down as if thinking about something before lifting them up.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0FjtWxE2g
"That's right, it was Myeongshin who was wrong first.....Why should I be disciplined? That fuckin bastard!!...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZzRasYbgx
Hearing Manager curse words at Myeongshin for the first time made me smile inside.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ojcIKeRE5
"So, what are you going to do now?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZlkEfRoQo
"Damn, I have to go to work. Even if I can't expose everything, I still have to erase my mistake....I should have gone to the company in the first place.....I'm sure it's because I'm scared of stupid words..."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfL0D1P1fJ
He scolded himself and roughly started the car and drove away. Once the car had rolled away, I leaned back against the car seat and opened the door....
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UsAlhPXQ7
"Talk to Chief Park...Try making a phone call to clear things up when you get to the office."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtt2PQDwD7
"What call?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5RLyAtBIv
He asked again. I turned to look at him.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRErsvXyHaQ
"First let's go see Chief Park."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu2d0mxITo
Chief Park 's office is on the top floor of the building. The executive offices are all gathered in one place, so we have to go through multiple closed doors with different levels of verification from the entrance to the lobby. We were able to get in through the manager yelling at Chief Park. I stepped on the carpet without a sound and entered the office not far from the entrance.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEEI37T6Ya
Chief Park was sitting on the opposite side with a serious expression because he knew we were here to protest, so he put on a face that had all the tough features of a man, but it didn't seem to be very effective, because I already knew he was a crybaby.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE0xRVj3ft
" Manager Choi is very loud, so I asked the two of you to come up here to talk, but saying it in advance won't work."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEfDQ4kmUm
He forcefully told the manager to let him lead the matter first.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bQlWEvDQM
"I contacted the staff you called in the morning and they said it's true that you intend to oppose them.....Of course Manager Choi seems to be the victim but..."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhU3rziOxX
"So you know. I was harmed by someone."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYj4T1ZoMa
The manager interrupted and approached, causing Chief Park to close his mouth with a confused look on his face. After that, the manager neared out his name.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHLG2Z6fx7
"Yoohan. Is it Song Yoohan?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0nbL9SN0n
"Cough….Let's see. I don't know. If you're just saying that without proof...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO0ItkNOAZ
"Haha….I can give you proof....Watch it here."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lmzT4VPzJ
When he finished talking, he used his phone to send a message. Not long after connecting the phone to the speakerphone he had taken from the car, the phone rang. Manager smiled and gave the phone to Chief Park department.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3uHHej9Z3
"Listen carefully. Hello? Myeongshin right?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YZ4oS0HNK
[What do you mean by that?]
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptxWDSDd3y
"Thank you for everything, thanks to me?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen75uJ3Ikd
I could hear Myeongshin's exasperated voice through the speakerphone. Now, the manager only smiled at him, no longer had to bow like before.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEqf8jUry6
"Ah, of course thanks for worrying about my newcomer....It's all thanks to the eldest brother...Thank you for taking away all the studio photographers we signed with the company. Only then can Mr. Lee of studio XX take a photo for him."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpv0K80jmZ
When Myeongshin asked again.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNskkzB9Kv
[Mr. Lee?...Don't make me laugh over doing it with that bluff….]
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvdt3P9A2P
"It is indeed Mr. Lee...Haha, by the way, I also filed a complaint with the company because the registered classes weren't for newbies who didn't know anything. That's why Chief Park gave us a dedicated instructor there! Hahaha, if it's not thanks to you, then what is it? Thank you very much indeed. This time the person who was brought in was a university lecturer…”
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pEa9zFVAq
Tut. Tut. Tut..
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eT1hup0GY
It seems that the other party has hung up so the only sound left is the sound of the phone coming from the speaker, raising his head to look at Chief Park.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HvL6pxMVJ
"If I now recommend to Chief Park about dedicated instructors, then am I right?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c2KLpgXhm
When asked by Manager, Chief Park put his hand on his forehead because he had a headache.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiYwP7f74B
"I know it is true, but what if you lie like that if he finds out? The fact that it was photographed by Mr. Lee is just a matter of checking...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS25RYKsex
"It's real."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC0OcsMTnX
"Hah?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn35egBoqiK
"I just brought Taemin to take pictures there."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn7RWWDp6D
The manager said in a smug tone. It was a bit different from the image of the old manager running around holding a can of water in his hand that I met the other day.....now he's standing up straight and looking at the other person with confidence.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1FMguessN
Chief Park must have been surprised, then blinked and cleared his throat.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelPq1uay2C
"Cough….So, what if you don't get a call?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSgbIsG4jt
"He will call."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wILhh0a1I
"......"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatwxz1Ujpj
"......"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGvbIkmqxw
"So if the phone calls , please let Taemin attend the classes as per your contract. Chief Park.....I don't care if there is an operation fee."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylJA4c6wwo
Chief Park silently watched the manager speak in a serious tone and nodded.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9OjemnNM3
"Yes. I will."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjXtxeEVsO
"Thank you.... Chief Park. Oh yes, by the way Taemin said he has something to ask."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvxYxbVlXd
He remembered my request before coming here. Chief Park suddenly became a bit wary as if recalling the scene where I was holding a knife and ‘'threatening'’ him.....
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzS2Qzjlmc
"Hmm….What do you want to know?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFshIaDsLY
"Please tell me who it is."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMz8TTIwDFZ
"Who….what?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3eoic6cog
"The one who ordered me to discipline my manager."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzyPcdPkfu
There were many reasons why I asked that Psychopath to discipline my manager, but the biggest reason was still that I wanted to know his identity. I could have easily asked him, but I wanted to double check before he told me. I wonder if he can really do anything I ask. And now the opportunity has come. But Chief Park's reaction was a bit strange.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySJwVKU39k
"Huh?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXOhHhr8kL
He seemed very surprised, so he just stared at me. I asked again.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKReFTgY4Pn
"To be honest, it's very strange. Why force discipline just because a phone call doesn't even count as a recommendation…..It's like someone is behind the scenes manipulating everything."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIR7QdHYAn
Of course it was him....
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmDebVLUfu
"Ah...That's...It's..."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ2bihmRz8
He opened his mouth in shock but only stammered out a sound like an idiot with his eyes wide open. But why should he be so surprised? Although I knew he probably wouldn't answer easily, I didn't expect him to be so surprised.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyYUa5v1h3
"Is it because the person who pressures you is an artist?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQugrrsrlWx
The manager who was always watching beside me suddenly got angry and shouted at my question.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJYC17NqJG
"Artist? Could it be Song Yoohan? That guy??!!"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9YpPlYrUN
"Ah no. Not Song Yoohan...and...not an artist either."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58JIn1ODRU
This time it was my turn to be surprised when he waved his hand in denial…..Hmm? Not an artist? So he's in another position to give him orders? I furrowed my brows and asked Chief Park to confirm once more.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQoR8KSKry
"Really not an artist?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouispKDePW
He nodded in response.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCc7lUkUDn
"Then why are you so surprised?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PUyf9V2Hf
I couldn't help but ask Chief Park, then he swallowed and said.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNQeVRBIbT
"I was really surprised. I didn't expect you would actually ask that question."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaZ6uNbqNu
Really ask?....What?.....
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m1wyhvnU8
"I actually received an order."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xM0QhP9wE
"Order?....What order?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8LyvY7FXE
"When someone asks me about a disciplinarian, this is the answer."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnjbmxV05y
He looked at me awkwardly and opened his mouth with difficulty.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAULZ8P7Fet
"Stop worrying about other people's business Baekwon, you idiot.....That is it."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19Z4GX5sl9
I turned my back, trying to swallow the curse words in my heart that were about to burst out.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOjISE5GSV
Okay, I admit. He really is much more of a pain in the ass than me.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR0NGHTnmn
Manager and Chief Park both wondered what the “Baekwon”was all about, so it took me a long time to change the subject and leave the company. I refused the manager's good will and walked to the bus stop alone. I got on the bus in the opposite direction from the way I usually go home. Their reason was because, just as I left the company, at that moment, I received a message as if it was just waiting for me to leave.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eZTkZlteM
[Come here now.]
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijIT7Cn58M
The sender was [Madman].

The lights in the entertainment district were brighter than during the day, making me a little dizzy. In other places, it is time to relax after a long day….but it's only this place that is still bustling as usual. Busy people flowed on the street, long lines of sidewalk shops, cars moving slowly trying to cross the narrow road. Chatting, laughing, the sound of excitement mixed with the popular music crept through the buildings.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bvbfTsyEv
Everyone seemed to be mesmerized and absorbed in that bustling atmosphere. Things that don't concern me. Music, noise, neon lights all left no impression on me. I still have not forgotten the fun of laughing and drinking with everyone back then. Maybe it's because I haven't touched it in years, that part of my past enjoyment seems to have been cut by a knife. From that moment five years ago. So, I feel like it will never change no matter how much time has passed. Like I can't go back. I stopped and looked at the sign hanging at the entrance leading down. Checking the string of English names that looked like phone fonts, I entered.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p9WiT00lr
Then, a muscular man in a black suit next to the entrance stood up to stop me.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDfAQEymvM
"You can't go this way."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWBl9AaNSR
I looked down the stairs,and checked the name again, and continued on. I ignored him and moved, but this person who looked like a security guard continued to put his hand out in front of me.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5w9H9xZJd
"This is a membership club, if you are not a member you cannot enter."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTEHo40ddz
"What if I am a member?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPttENUq02
The guard hesitated, then stepped back a little, watching me from below. Then he asked, looking suspiciously like he thought I didn't fit his standards.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ygJojh0y7
"Are you a member?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4xJE9QnTB
"No."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQwslmGPZI
Looking at his contorted face, I pointed down.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEihSop9Y5
“But, the person waiting down there is a member."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyOwJwDu3Y
The security guard immediately apologized and asked something into the receiver connected to the headset. I'm annoyed that he told me to go to such a troublesome place. So, I stood slightly tilted, the security guard was checking when suddenly asked me.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDccBzjt1b
"What is the name of your companion?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwMvijSYAE
"That...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE6JlxjObn
"Could you tell me the name of your companion?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyEDyaCGyI
"!"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGCsnk2cW8
"You have to give me the name so I can check..."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lMHFNMKw0
"Let's see if anyone looks like a madman in there."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStp1YrmPLn
"Huh?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVVHhrnm5T
He raised his voice and grimaced.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzZJbCM8RH
If he did, he might forcefully drive me away, so I took a big step back. That's it, anyway, he just told me to come this far, I've already done it, so it doesn't matter if I leave now. If he does come, I can just make excuses, so I turn around. As I was about to leave quickly, I seemed to hear someone running up the stairs and calling my name back.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoVItsdipq
"Is it Mr. Lee Taemin?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uNdWxHow7
That's not my real name, so I thought it would be fine to just deny it and leave...However, I couldn't help but turn around at the next confirmation.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ0aeXDD7a
"Ah yes, Lee Taemin is just a stage name, and the real name is Lee Baekwon. If it's you, then please...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMl0jgpPsg
When I looked over, I saw the security guard standing....I blushed in surprise at that so-called ‘’'real name of mine”.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwknYIWTcx
Because of my ‘'real name”' Lee Baekwon, I have to trust this so-called club manager down below. Other than the speculation that this shop with a long English name would just look like a regular bar, the atmosphere here is like that of a high-class, classy and quiet restaurant.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HRaFIraLg
Classical tunes rang out, chandeliers hung from the ceiling and paintings hung everywhere in the small hall. Around the hall, narrow passages curved in various directions extending to three places, giving the place the feeling of the center of a maze.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Fc2PcOM42
"This way."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfOXLmjogP
Just as I stopped and looked around, he called out softly and led me into the leftmost aisle.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTD1JphcVL
"It's easy for first timers to get lost, so please follow closely behind me."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ph43Ysq09
Perhaps he was right, the strange passage met more corridors and branched again. It seems that I really would have lost my way if I had missed the manager. The only distinguishing feature was the doors on either side of the corridors, all of them of different designs. The manager stopped in front of one of them, opened the door, and reached in.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqbkMppgwT
"Can you wait here for a moment?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOra0o4RXQ
Entering the small room with furniture that looked like a normal apartment, I asked him to close the door.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj87D7lXL20
"How long?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwjiyk0hcV
He was about to close the door when he stopped and replied with a smile.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNZKQlwo62
"It won't take more than 30 minutes."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHCZoasJCO
Click.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNetT2XERsG
After the door closed, I looked around the quiet room, sat down at the end of the long sofa and checked the time.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIlTgwSKjp
...9 hours and 29 minutes...
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBotxjLlAgz
"Come quickly...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmcHvRHDN9
I was mumbling when suddenly the door opened and someone walked in.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCleRWdBQYd
"Hello sir."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfEIIypUTG
A beautiful girl approached and greeted me.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBuwQG5e2n
The lightly makeuped face looked like it came out of a painting and the skin was clean and spotless. Exalted by a deep red dress that revealed a high neckline under her bouncy hair, it looked even more white and glowing. This girl looks even more beautiful than most artists in the world, to the point that it can make people on the street turn their heads to look at each other, holding a tray of glasses and a bottle of Western wine in her hand.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuywiviPiwL
However, it was immediately apparent that she was clearly not a waitress carrying a glass of water at all. Serving a glass of water or anything. With that side slit red dress and gorgeous jewelry, she looked more like a receptionist. The problem is why the receptionist entered this room. It's not like I haven't been to a place like this in the past so I know well, unless I'm a loyal customer, alcohol and women will never automatically be offered. Confused, I watched her gently sit down beside me. Before my gaze, the girl came to sit closer to me and smiled.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBG9BjTiRn
"In the meantime, let's chat for a while."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFAGDbdDOg
"No need."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J72KTWqtb
"Ah, don't you like to be disturbed? Well then...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMlepN28rp
"I don't need to."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk50Ia8wbd
Staring at the girl. I coldly spat out.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A4EKu5734
There was a hint of embarrassment on the beautiful woman's face, but I had no choice. Based on my experience, their job is to receive guests, so even if the man sitting in the room refuses, they can't just leave. I'm not used to this, so I thought I only had to refuse once.
But...,no matter how unlucky I am, I have to say it clearly.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus2141U2QA
"Get out of here."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOUoCAI0xY
I pointed at the drink and asked in a low voice.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLlhH8cSv3
The girl stopped breathing for a moment,and looked at me and realized it was true, and reluctantly put on a smile.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EZa8FdZsD
"Aren't you satisfied with me? Or should I go for another drink?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon9JiavTfI
She was immediately able to return to her original bright voice, showing how well-trained the girl was. From the looks to training. Since it's mentioned as a membership, the quality here can be counted on to be quite high. Maybe that bottle alone is equivalent to half a year of my salary.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmPqFDGW5R
"Tell me if you like any kind of wine....He told me to say to you that you don't have to worry about money, and just need to wait comfortably."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyzgIZ6XsS
The voice is as sweet as the song of a bird...I would be grateful if I could drink expensive wine for free, but….
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGhVtd9NCC
"I don't drink...So take it away."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11h2pmaHgV
For the second time, the girl finally got up from her seat. However, the girl left the wine behind and walked out the door smiling.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGroMl7aca
"Looks like you're not happy with me . I'll call someone else over."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJEIYYR0BX
The girl left before I could say no, and after a long time someone actually approached. This time a handsome guy. Sure enough, also with a face with a more beautiful appearance than most artists in the world, he smiled at me and entered the room.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwLEAtj0LV
"Woah….You are so lovely...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6bshuhthC
"Get out...."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbpTPLkTlJ
I said, somehow I had an uneasy feeling that these words would have to keep coming out of my mouth.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRVtKPutF0
9 hours and 59 minutes...
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB3u69MoHj
When the clock struck the right time, I got up from my seat immediately. From now on, men and women have had enough, taking turns entering. After all, taking turns entering, causing me to constantly chase them out , and in the end 30 minutes had passed. I really wanted to leave this room because I've had enough, but the door opened before I could even touch it.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I have come to pick you up."

As soon as the face of the club manager who led me here first met my eyes, I really wanted to swear. It only takes one step faster to leave.
I tried to suppress the regret in my heart and was dragged along with him through the labyrinth of corridors.

Turn right, turn left, then turn right again.

I had passed these passages enough for the back to gradually disappear from view, but I was not bored at all. Watching the doors change is also quite magical for me. I think I've seen this scene in some fairy tale. Labyrinth of corridors with different doors.

She becomes huge and can also shrink, and a rabbit appears…

"Do you want to go inside?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52Yha2ihxY
When I looked up, I saw that he had opened an iron door at the end of the corridor and pointed inside. Ah...I remembered that the girl entered the wrong door,and got into trouble, and so she fell into a wonderland.

For some reason, I have the feeling that if I step inside, I will also fall into another magical land. But that feeling was gone in an instant.

"Mr. Lee Baekwon?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmids9sD2D
I lazily reacted to the name making it impossible not to wake up from reality. The manager who was over 40 walked in first and kindly explained.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JMkJ0vZol
"We're almost there. Mr. Lee Baekwon."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXTvCaDVU7
"…."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvyK3EvE4S
"Is there anything uncomfortable about Mr. Lee Baekwon?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPfmvbDpIv
"No."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3BNRz2a29
I replied briefly to confirm with him.

Obviously he didn't mean anything by calling me that. Even so, the innocent person still felt awkward at my gaze and stepped inside. It was a storage room with stuff piled up on either side, but he slid right through them and opened another door on the opposite side and went in. Then, another corridor appeared.

These corridors are a little different. No decorations, no music, like a corridor for employees who are busy moving. The man crossed the narrow aisle, came to a nearby door, knocked and turned to look at me.

"He is waiting inside."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8P16F1lp4Z
Then he gently opened the door and stepped aside....I looked around once more before entering. Having a room deep inside this wonderland meant he couldn't at least be a guest...Or is he the owner of this place?
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaoQHjmjOc
"Who is the person inside?"
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMLJXp9wiO
I tried to ask, he was a bit confused but immediately replied with a smile.
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAas8fHLBx6
"Of course, it is the one who is waiting for you, Mr. Lee Baekwon."
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7Fsf51LvJ
I suddenly felt extremely regretful, when I only had 200 won in my pocket the day I first met him.
