A Heroine Who Can Never Be Abandoned

132 – Dongmin Lee (67)

Dongmin Lee (67)

[…

Dami Lee’s house was not big. When you pass through the narrow alley, you enter square-shaped houses, which are single-story to be called villas and wide to be called studios. Kang Hae-rin stood in front of the door lock.

“… 0709…”

You have entered your password. She found out from Idami, but she figured it must be it, even if she didn’t say it in her desperation. It was a number that led to Kang Hae-rin’s underground torture chamber. Of course, that would have been specified before 『Journal』 Was realized. Lee Da-mi was a fan of her younger brother’s work.

When I opened the narrow front door, I saw the living room right away. There was a window connected to the veranda in the front. LED lights were hung in recesses in the ceiling. Strong Rin turned on her power without hesitation to light up her interior.

It was a typical living room. Fabric sofa and TV in front. And on the table in between was a red wine-colored laptop. It was tightly closed. Idami headed to the kitchen. She didn’t have to wash the dishes. She didn’t even bite. Lee Dong-min is now in the hospital. Perhaps Idami would always be by his side.

“……”

Strong, Rin felt that the two of them were close. It reminded me of Lee Da-mi, who cried when Lee Dong-min was attacked. She held her brother’s hand, which was dripping with blood, and held it so that the knife in her hand would not cut through her skin, shaking her hand. Lee Da-mi said that she was moved by Kang Hae-rin’s appearance, but Kang Hae-rin was impressed by her appearance.

It was not easy for the strong woman to call 911, she was stumbling around in embarrassment. When Kanghae Rin had time alone, so she had no one by Lee Dong-min’s side, she had Lee Da-mi by her side. She continued to hold Kang Hae-rin’s place. No, that might have been her place from the start.

“…Even without me.”

Kang Hae-rin stood and thought.

About future events.

What would happen if she didn’t do anything. Just as a novel progresses according to probability, reality will flow according to the flow of reality as long as there is no change. If nothing changes, it is natural that it does not change.

Lee Dong-min will not care about his own safety.

He will continue to dig the secret of 『Journal』, And will be exposed to danger. Worst of all, you still can’t be sure of his love. He will carry through with his stubbornness to the end. What is hopeless is that there is no guarantee that Lee Dong-min will love Kang Hae-rin.

She became increasingly depressed.

As strong as Lynne suffers from her anesthesia, her frustration with thinking about her move made her even more vulnerable. She was vulnerable, like a child who had never had a cold. She didn’t know how to deal with her feelings of depression and isolation. She thought of Lee Dong-min often, but the more she thought about it, the more nervous she became.

Lee Dong-min lived well without Kang Hae-rin, and rather did not seem to be happy with her appearance. Haerin Kang could feel it. It’s not someone else’s, but it’s Lee Dong-min’s feelings. His behavior was consistent. He was refusing to get close to Kang Hae-rin. It was said that it was because of the 『Journal』 Issue, but even if it was resolved, the situation would not change much.

Kang Hae-rin became more and more confident.

‘Can I be an important person?’

I was getting more and more greedy. No, this is his creation, a well-deserved right to be the half he once longed for. Is not it? Just because he doesn’t need her now, there’s no way she can give up on him. They are made like this Kang Hae-rin just continues to live like that. The way to prove that was to ‘naturally’ separate ‘such precious Lee Da-mi’ from Lee Dong-min’s side.

And watch.

It only takes a moment.

If only he could occupy the place in Lee Dong-min’s heart that he so much wanted.

Any excuse is good. Even if you went on a trip, the situation may be strange, but you can ask for enough cooperation. Idami will understand. In the meantime, Lee Dong-min will be taken care of by Kang Hae-rin and get closer to her. It’s about truly opening your heart and becoming each other’s lover. Lee Dong-min decided to treat her with respect. He decided to cherish them as living lovers, not as paper dolls or ‘characters’ he had created.

Stronger Rin crossed her living room and went to the room on her left.

There was a spacious bed. It was too big for one person, a woman who seemed a little thinner than average. It smelled warm there. She seemed to be very good at taking care of the duvet. Looking at her slim body, you can feel her diligence.

“………”

On the other side was a dressing table. Kang Hae-rin, who gave her eyes for a moment, went to her closet. She pulled out the carrier on top. She put it on her bed, and she gathered some clothes in the closet. An excuse would be a trip. She put her black jeans, a glossy yellow blouse, a black dress with white sleeves, a crimson cropped cardigan, and a miniskirt with flowers on it… She put them in her suitcase and turned around.

“……”

But she didn’t go out.

At first, I had no idea.

But when she came to her senses, she was strong. Rin was looking around her room. With her hands behind her back, she slowly looked at Lee Da-mi’s cosmetics, the paintings on the wall, and the items in the drawers. She even sniffed the two pillows. After a while, she realized she was looking for traces of Lee Dong-min.

She closed the carrier and came out into the living room.

Haerin Kang, who was about to go outside, stopped walking. For some reason, her steps just didn’t fall. Her own plans, her simple plans to get even a little closer to her migrants, were not satisfied.

She was greedy, but many things were not enough to fulfill her desire. She couldn’t have Lee Dong-min recklessly. Like the characters who stray from the author’s thoughts, Lee Dong-min acted as he pleased. No, she’s strong. She couldn’t even handle herself. She asked why in everything, especially after she found out that she was a character in a novel.

‘Because this emotion, this impulse is a character in a novel?’

She was restricted by the rule of three strikes. She is not the one who kills people out of ignorance. Also, Lee Dong-min continued to be stubborn against her wishes. It was still questionable whether he would ever love her in the first place. Even after she found out that she was a character in her novel, or rather, that idea made her feel all the more constrained in her being and in her actions.

‘There is a huge curtain.’

There was another stress factor. Kang Hae-rin, like Kang Hae-rin in 『Journal』, Could hardly act immediately ‘without agony’. Whatever the inside, she doubted herself and was wary of the world whenever she did anything. In 『Journal』, She has strong Rin’s appearance, personality, and abilities, but there is nothing she can do with them. Moreover, the ‘crisis’ she faced was truly global.

『Journal』 Is becoming a reality. The villains there start appearing, but she can’t even use her abilities. This is because of the restrictions of mobility. She wants to receive his love, but if she wants to love him, if she wants to keep him, she must regain her place of original strong Rin. However, she promised Lee Dong-min that she would not kill him. She did not want to receive his loathing and contempt.

… The realization of 『Journal』 Cannot be stopped.

From the moment he first encountered the problem, Kang Hae-rin had a hunch. She is not her pessimist, but neither is she an ignorant optimist; The realization of 『Journal』 Is irreversible and will last forever.

… There were only rough roads ahead of them.

… I needed something to turn the tables on.

“………”

Kang Haerin put down her suitcase and sat down on the sofa.

“… I must have seen it.”

Red burgundy notebook. When I thought about her because I wanted to be stepped on strangely, she was strong. The first time she went to Lee Dong-min’s house, she was at his house. As she tried to touch it, she recalled Lee Dong-min startled and took her defensive posture. However, in Kang Hae-rin’s eyes, it was just a broken laptop. Even when she turned on the screen, nothing was visible. I just passed by then, but it was strange that a laptop with such a strong color and design was in Lee Da-mi’s house.

… Of course it could be. As she is a close brother and sister, she may have asked her to fix her broken laptop. She thinks it’s acceptable up to that point. But there is something more than that. Did Lee Da-mi fix the broken laptop? I had such a thought. Why would she go this far to fix it? Strong Rin said she would fix this, she had told Lee Dong-min directly. But he refused, and instead bought me a new laptop. And the broken laptop is here. Strong Rin thought nothing of it, and she pressed the power button on it.

… A bright light came on on the screen.]

“… Haa…”

Seonggang Park raised his head and blinked his eyes repeatedly.

In the underground torture chamber, there was a yellowish light above, but perhaps because of the color, it was blinding.

Maybe I was too focused on watching it.

It was when he was about to read the following.

“Isn’t it fun?”

Strong Rin came down her stairs behind her.

A gun was fired from behind her.

Bang-!

At first glance, it was a bit crude to be called a prototype, but it was in good shape.

But at least not for civilians.

It was in the hand of a middle-aged woman.

Bang-!

The bullet went through Park Seong-gang’s head.

Then another shot landed on the abdomen as well.
