Chapter 222 – 222- Deal
#
Jin-woo looks at the two men and women drinking from the other side.
The names of the two men and women are Ji Seung-jun and Yoo Ah-ra.
Baby first
She is a woman full of energy and chattering like a sparrow, but with a cuteness like a puppy.
Jinwoo and Ara were intertwined in many ways.
When he was working as Woojin, he was a young man at a part-time job…
When he was Jinwoo, he was called a benefactor who helped him.
Because of this, I’m old, but I felt it the other day, but Ara was the owner of an enormous affinity.
“So why is mint chocolate so delicious…”
Ara, what did she want to say so much? She couldn’t stop her mouth…
“Haha… But mint chocolate is not my taste…”
“Ah~ Try it once. It is delicious.”
I didn’t feel any discomfort, though.
It was a nonsensical story, but it was fun to listen to.
Perhaps the pure appearance also played a role.
And the boy sitting next to him.
A man named Seungjun Ji was the first person I saw today.
I knew exactly what it looked like.
In the past, in the early days of Sia’s Starstar account, Seungjun uploaded a cosplay photo, so I saw it for the first time.
Because of this, Seungjun’s face was somewhat familiar.
One surprising thing is…
‘You look really young…’
Is it that you look younger than you thought?
If you could sum up Seungjun’s appearance in one word, it would be ‘Ae’.
Even though he was a middle school or high school student, he looked so young that he couldn’t believe it…
He looked younger in real life than in the picture alone.
Is it to the point where Ara next to her looks like an older sister?
Should she be a while… Or is she still not growing up in her…
…So it was anyway.
I mentioned earlier that Jinwoo investigated Seungjun…
This was because it was thought that Seungjun had a fairly close relationship with Shia.
As a result of the investigation, Seungjun is a photographer who takes pictures for Xia’s stars.
Behind the scenes, he learned that he was the cameraman who followed Su-ah around and filmed her flight.
‘As far as I know, I think we’ve been together since the beginning of the app…’
If you check the log, the name that came up next to Kim Joo-won was Ji Seung-jun.
It seemed that he had been hanging out with Sia for that long.
What is particularly impressive is the request video.
When Woo-jin didn’t know anything about the app, she once asked Su-a for a quest to find an anal virgin (?).
When I made the request, it seemed that Seungjun was filming and appearing…
If you check the log and the body shape of the man who appeared in the video, it is clear that the person sitting in front of him is Ji Seung-jun.
To sum it up, this boy named Ji Seung-jun has been hanging out with Sia since the beginning of the application, and it can be said that he is the person who took the beginning of Sia’s back hole.
“…”
In many ways, it is inevitable to be angry, but Jin-woo, unexpectedly, did not have big feelings for Ji Seung-jun.
Jin-Woo decided not to cling to Shia any more, and he didn’t want to say anything when he looked at her weak-looking appearance.
Like Jin-Woo did to Oh Jun-Seo… No, I wondered if he would die even if he hit just one…
Above all, Seungjun’s faults were relatively few compared to other characters.
‘Rather, if he helped, he helped…’
As far as Jinwoo knows, most of the incidents happened while Seungjun was being dragged around by Shia, and although he didn’t know what was going on, it seemed that he had played a role in spilling a nuance of doubt (?) To himself in cooperation with Eunjin.
So there was a part that was normal to some extent.
‘But…’
However, I had no intention of just passing over Seungjun.
As I said earlier, Seungjun was a man who secretly mixed his body with Shia.
This was an act that only made Jin-Woo himself clear, and above all, he had no intention of passing it off as good because he had many things to find out through Seung-Jun.
‘Um… Shall I scare you in moderation?’
So the result is scary.
The result of Jin-Woo talking with Seung-Jun for a while.
It was a punishment (?) Derived from the thought that it would be possible to obtain the desired information with just a little intimidation (?).
Even if Jin-Woo thought about it, he wondered if this was the right way to punish him, but he couldn’t help it because he couldn’t even hit him.
Instead, he intends to obtain all evidence, both present and absent, through this blackmail.
‘Alright then. Should I stab him?’
The content of Jin-woo’s threat is to intimidate Jin-woo by revealing that he is Woo-jin.
And he decided to get various information through the blackmail.
Well… Jin-Woo revealed his identity to Seung-Jun, so there were concerns that his identity would be known to others…
Well?
It seemed that this would be resolved with a moderate threat.
“Ah! Excuse me for a minute.”
Ara must have gone to the bathroom.
Jinwoo slightly stabs Seungjun…
“Are you still dating Sia?”
“…Yes?!”
The effect was amazing.
“Wasn’t Xia’s cinematographer Seungjun-ssi?”
“Ah. For reference, shooting doesn’t mean normal shooting like a star star. From what I remember, it must have been since I left with Shia…”
“Seungjun-ssi knows what ‘du’ I mean, right?”
As I said this, I shot Seungjun’s face as if he was terrified.
Maybe you think to yourself, ‘Oh, that’s fucked up…’?
“I… There…”
Seungjun trembles and opens his mouth.
It seemed to take a while for the back story to continue, but Jin-woo waited patiently.
It must have taken some time to think.
And after a while…
“Are you… Seo Woo-jin…?”
Seungjun’s words continued.
Seungjun shakes his hand and grabs the straw.
Then he drank the drink with difficulty.
“Well?”
“Huh… Huh… Huh…”
Jin-Woo gave a vague denial, but Seung-Jun’s reaction seemed to indicate that he probably figured out that he was Woo-Jin.
“…”
Seungjun hesitated for a moment and glanced at himself.
“And what about that figure… Avatar…?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
This time, he answered clearly.
Haha…”
Then, as if he had been liberated, Seung-jun smiled innocently.
“…”
As I was looking at Seungjun, I had a question.
How exactly did he pinpoint himself as Woojin… That was the question.
Given the circumstances, it seemed that I could guess well enough, but I couldn’t be certain.
It was clear that Sia must have shown him (Woojin) a picture, and Seungjun must have known his (Woojin) face.
But now, Jin-woo’s appearance must be very different from Woo-jin’s.
Sia/Sua’s avatars are avatars that change while maintaining the basics such as skin color, hair color, and tattoo, while Woojin/Jinwoo’s appearances are the same person, so they are different enough to not be noticed…
I wondered how he thought he was Woojin.
So I asked myself.
“You seem to know a lot about apps. But how did you figure out that I was Woojin? I was just poking around a little bit, right?”
“That is…”
In Seungjun’s words, thanks to Ara’s words, he said that he got the feeling of ‘maybe?’
“As Ara said, my name is Jinwoo. There’s something similar to Woojin…”
He had already known that the person Ara called ‘Bob’ was Shia’s boyfriend, Woojin.
When Ara saw Jin-woo, she said that her voice and atmosphere were similar to Woo-jin, and she said it was Gingamin…
Then, when Jinwoo, a potato baby, spoke about things that only he and Xia knew about, he said that he had no choice but to be sure.
“Exactly…”
Jin-woo had no choice but to agree with Seung-jun.
In the case of the last time when Jin-Woo saved Ara from her clubhouse, Ara asked Jin-Woo if he was her Woo-Jin.
And today, since Jin-Woo was saying ‘Brother’ and ‘Brother’, he couldn’t help but be surprised by Ara’s senses from Jin-Woo’s point of view.
‘Does it have a good sense?’
No, if you think about it, it might be because of Ara’s eccentricity.
Her appearance is completely different, how can you tell that she is a similar person just with her voice or atmosphere…
It was an action that a normal person would not have thought of.
“Then it should be easy. Seungjun, do you know what mistakes you have made?”
As he spoke, Jin-Woo’s tone naturally changed to half-speaking.
However, Seungjun will not be able to point out Jinwoo’s attitude.
He was well aware of his mistakes, and he must have keenly felt how threatening Jin-woo is now.
“Yes… I have sinned… To death… I’m sorry…”
Seungjun slammed his head into the table.
Thud-
Seeing Seung-jun like that, Jin-woo gets flustered.
‘I didn’t expect you to be so frightened…’
Jinwoo didn’t know that Seungjun would be so scared.
And I thought the reaction was a bit excessive.
Of course, being afraid of yourself is necessary for future work, but it was too much for now.
“Help me…”
Seungjun hits him on the head again.
His head hit the table and the table made a noise, so he was in trouble because he was attracting attention…
I had to lift his head once.
“But…”
Seungjun lifts his head while crying.
Then I saw the moisture around her eyes, and it seemed that if she scared me a little, she would burst into tears.
‘I don’t think I was that scary…’
As I said before, I didn’t have big feelings for Seungjun, and I thought it would be like this in the first place, so I just gave an impression…
Being so scared, I couldn’t do anything from Jinwoo’s point of view.
It seemed that he was quite frightened of himself, to the point that he felt that his heart was weakening for some reason.
If you asked him to tell you about what had happened, he was ready to call out everything, and if you told him to keep his identity a secret, he would shake his head vigorously and agree.
‘No…’
However, after a while, Jin-woo changed his mind and made up his mind that he should act a little more resolutely until he got the necessary information from Seung-jun.
Before that, he decided to calm Seungjun down.
“What did I hit? It’s not like that, so calm down for a moment.”
“Yes Yes…”
It was a bit of an arrogant comment, but I was able to calm down and ask the next question anyway.
“First of all, don’t feel too pressured, can you tell me what happened with Sia?”
…
…
Seungjun told Jinwoo about everything that had happened.
Starting to meet Sia, following her around, and many other things…
When he speaks, Woojin in front of him… No, Jinwoo
He nodded his head at his own words, sometimes making an interesting expression as if he knew for the first time, and sometimes listening with a grin.
Jinwoo also asked himself a question.
In particular, I asked a lot about Kim Joo-won, and Seung-jun answered them wholeheartedly.
“So… That’s how it happened…”
As we talked like this, the fear of Jin-woo from earlier gradually faded.
It gave me time to think…
Suddenly, I had this thought.
From Seung-jun’s point of view, Jin-woo seemed to already know a lot, but why did he bother to ask such a question?
Just by looking at the attitude of listening, it seemed like it was already confirmed that Sia was cheating on her. He wondered if he needed to say more.
So I asked directly.
Whether his own words help Jin-Woo.
Then Jinwoo said:
“To bring down all the people who fucked me.”
“Yes?”
Seungjun is surprised by Jinwoo’s words.
Among them, he thinks that he will be included, and once again starts to tremble as if an alarm bell has sounded in his body…
“Ah… Seungjun, calm down because you don’t think much of it. Just keep today’s matter a secret from others.”
Only then did Seungjun sweep his chest.
Good luck… Good luck… Again, good luck.
It’s because Jin-woo doesn’t see himself as bad.
It’s a fall anyway…
I thought the word fall might be a word that expresses ‘social burial’…
Judging from Jinwoo’s reaction, it seemed that the two people who seemed certain to fall were Shia and Joowon.
Other than that, it seemed to be about Eugene and Tae-woo.
I don’t know what he’s trying to do, but maybe he’s not working as Woo-jin, but as Jin-woo, a businessman.
I didn’t ask for details, so I don’t know.
Seung-jun is a little pricked by his conscience because he thinks he’s doing something like a bat, but…
He had to be willing to do bats in order to survive.
After that slightly lengthy explanation of Seungjun…
“Well…”
Jinwoo makes an expression that seems to be lacking something…
“Then, are you keeping the photos and videos you took?”
“Ah…”
Listening to Jinwoo’s words, it seemed like he was really about to crash.
You want a video…
On Seungjun’s hard drive, the original and edited versions of the videos he had taken so far remained intact.
But is it right to hand this over?
“I wondered how it happened, but it felt like it lacked impact.”
“Ah… That’s a little…”
Seungjun hesitates.
Jin-woo is saying ‘evidence’, but in Seung-jun’s eyes, he thought Jin-woo might be thinking of ‘revenge porn’.
Aside from being a criminal, the sources of the videos are so clear…
There was a very high possibility that Seung-jun would be disadvantaged later.
Because of this, he could not easily hand over the images.
Jin-woo also noticed that,
‘Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything myself.’
‘Couldn’t it be done by hacking?’
‘Even if there is an investigation, he can cover it himself.’
I came up with various countermeasures, but they were not very trustworthy.
However, from Seungjun’s point of view, there was no choice.
It was because, for some reason, if he said no, he would be added to Jinwoo’s ‘falling list’.
That’s why I wondered if I should trust Jinwoo’s words and hand them over…
Suddenly, a thought passed through my head.
Then, the corners of Seungjun’s mouth parted.
“Then… There is… A condition…”
Seungjun slowly began to speak the text in his head with a trembling voice.
“Condition?”
“Yes… Maybe…”
Seung-jun is now well aware that what he is trying to say is crazy.
A normal person would never think of such a thing.
“With my girlfriend…”
But he thought it was something he couldn’t say if it wasn’t now.
This situation where conditions, justifications, and interests all match.
All of this was saying that now is an opportunity.
“Can you have sex?”
It was a golden opportunity to release his twisted sexual desire, and a win-win opportunity for the three of him, Ara, and Jinwoo…
“Then I’ll give you all the videos and photos I’ve taken so far… How is it?… Hehe…”
Seungjun cautiously made a deal.
