Volume 7 – Disjunction
Chapter 18
The following day, Haneul got on the train.
The voice that he had heard over his telephone receiver was not the voice of JoonYoung from his memories. It was deeper and manly, unlike his voice when he was going through puberty.
However, it was definitely JoonYoung’s voice.
Rather, JoonYoung asked very coolly as to why Haneul had called. It was very difficult to explain how Haneul felt.
“Let’s meet up. Let’s talk after we meet.”
Haneul thoughtlessly spoke, and although JoonYoung was surprised, he agreed.
Haneul got off at G City, which was a huge zone within Central South. If he was to compare the place to the world that he was from, Haneul compared it to Yongsan.
(Djinn- Yongsan is a place in Korea, south of Seoul.)
This was the place where Haneul had lived at previously.
However, the atmosphere that it used to have back in the days, were now gone. Having had rifts appear within it several times already, it had completely become a new town.
Haneul headed towards the café that JoonYoung had marked on the map. There were several people within the restaurant. As Haneul sat by the window to wait for JoonYoung, he suddenly received a phone call.
It was from the Hero Organization.
“Yes, how can I help you?”
<Hello, it’s YooShik Kim from the HR department. I apologize for contacting you out of the blue, but we would like to do a rerun of a couple of tests with you at the Organization as soon as possible. Would that be okay?>
“Well. I’ll think about it.”
Tests. Do they want to do the same thing as they did last time?
Haneul wasn’t really willing to.
<W, please wait just a moment! This will help us advance in our research, so please don’t reject it and come.>
“I don’t have any problems with my body, so what tests do you need to run?”
<I promise you that you don’t have any problems. It’s just, we need to run some tests that will help us in the future, so I implore that you help us. And, I understand that we’re taking up your precious time, so we will also provide you with a bonus.>
Haneul who had been indifferent till now, suddenly showed interest on his face.
“Bonus?”
<Yes, that’s right.>
“How much are we talking about?”
Haneul asked in a frank manner.
YooShik Kim froze for a moment. He had said empty words to get some tests in, but he did not think that such a response would be shown.
He thought for a moment and yelled out a large amount of money.
It was an amount that Haneul would never think of.
‘Is it okay to be giving away so much money? They’re easily giving away over $1,000, even though it’s just running some tests.’
Haneul would’ve gone even if they said that they would give $100, yet an extra 0 was added to it.
There was no reason to reject. Either way, Heroes didn’t have much to do on a normal basis.
“Alright. When should I stop by?”
<If you’re okay, even now would be………..>
“Ah, it would be a bit difficult right now, so I’ll stop by next time.”
Suddenly, with the ringing of bells, a man entered the café.
Haneul’s eyes naturally moved towards that direction. A guy with a big stature with dyed blonde hair. His features were well-defined, and jaw line was sharp. However, Haneul immediately recognized who he was.
‘JoonYoung Lee.’
His face had definitely lost the baby fat from the past, but he still looked the same.
“I will call you back.”
Haneul hung up.
Suddenly, JoonYoung turned his head, spotted Haneul, and walked towards him.
“Long time no see.”
“…….”
