Chapter 98 – #27_Smoke and Illusion
One.
Yoo-chan goes to work feeling desperately tired.
The pounding head her from lack of sleep, as always, was supplemented with energy drinks.
I went through everything in one night, so even if I was five years older, I would have slept with the bed until the morning.
Even then, time was delayed and it was already 11 o’clock.
Eugene, who broke off friendship with Seohyun in the worst way, did not come to the academy.
This was the information Yoo-chan learned from the director who came to her counseling office.
“Yuchan, I believe in you too. What is this though? This morning too, Lee Yoo-jin’s mother called and made a fuss. Huh? Please hand it over quietly, her brother and her begs.”
“Leave it to me. Sorry, I’ll take care of it.”
“What the hell have you done! Is that busy lady boss running all the way here in socks…”
When I asked what was going on in the morning to find her, she seemed to have been hit by something from Yujin’s mother.
She begs, sweating profusely as if unfairly.
It wasn’t something she expected.
If Yu-jin and Yu-chan’s daughter caught the situation that she might have a secret relationship, and her daughter cried and cried,
From Mi-young’s point of view, the prime suspect would be Yu-chan.
“Anyway, I’ll be leaving work first. Please take good care of me when I call later.”
Does this person get off work in an hour after going to work?
Bona Mana, I’m going to roll around with the girl I seduced at a bar.
Yoo-chan, who saw off with a kind smile while hiding her true feelings of her, leaned against the backrest.
“Sorry.”
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t help but regret it.
Basically, it is Yoo-chan who prefers young and young women.
The more inexperienced and greener the sprouts are, the easier they are to be dyed in their color, and the fresher they taste.
However, if it was Song Mi-young, she was within the defensive range.
With a beauty that only looks like someone in her early 30s, she has stylish bobbed hair that doesn’t feel tacky.
A truly successful city woman is the symbol.
However, her barrier to entry was too high to capture her.
She is not an ordinary married woman, but the CEO of a famous jeweler.
She is a woman in power who can lightly crush Yu-chan, perhaps even on the legal side or on the social influence side.
The difficulty and risk of attack are different from those of immature children who get caught up in Yoo-chan’s pace without knowing anything and become desperate.
There are already prey that can be eaten everywhere, but it is ridiculous to take risks.
In this situation, there is only one thing Yu-chan can think of.
There was only disposal.
It is possible to kill her even if she is ready, even if she is fully prepared.
As always, in a completely different way,
To leave no evidence behind.
-Smart
It was the knocking sound that cut off the bloody thoughts.
“Come on in.”
Correct her posture her, which was disturbed by her fatigue her, and wait for the door to open.
She expected that it would probably be Na Ye, but surprisingly, the other person was Do Min-jung, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.
“Mr. Yuchan, are you busy?”
“Long time no see. Shall I make some coffee?”
“Please.”
As the weather warms up, wear lighter clothes.
The unique fashion of wearing a yoga cardigan was still the same.
I haven’t been able to see Tong’s face for days.
The reason was that her lecturer’s office was her, where she was mainly located, and her counseling office was her, which was tucked away in the corner of her academy, were hard to even brush her face unless she was deliberately trying to meet her.
Still, it was a daily routine for her to stop by her counseling room and complain about how far away the day was.
A sudden change in behavior means a change of heart.
So it was her Yuchan who kept an eye on her, but she passed because she didn’t feel much of her.
As Yoo-chan stared at him, Min-jeong fluttered her fan in embarrassment.
“Why? Did you put anything on my face?”
To be precise, what Yoo-chan was looking at was her black box her, not her face her.
There is no shortcut like this to guess the mind of others.
As usual, a hermit crab was playing peacefully in the middle of her chest.
If there is a difference from before,
– Bubbling
To the extent that the hermit crab had burrowed into her shell, leaving only her eyeballs out of her.
It was premature to think that she was the same as usual.
Min-jeong is wary of Yoo-chan.
It was a blatant sign that she was okay with taking it.
Looking at that, I don’t think the reason she didn’t come to the counseling room was because she was just busy.
No matter how busy you are in the first place, there will always be a little time.
Until now, Mindo has been like that too.
This is not good.
Her last point of contact with her recently was the only thing she gave her a ride in her car when she was late about two months ago.
There was nothing happening, but I could n’t help but feel that her sudden change in attitude was a precursor to a crisis.
Yoo-chan began to organize her memories of her as she smelled the fragrant coffee from her coffee machine.
However, no matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand Do Min-jeong’s sudden change in attitude to her.
In any case, it is a brief exploration.
If you are a cautious person like Do Min-jeong and have a high sense of vigilance, it could be from a very trivial misunderstanding.
She put down her coffee cup on the counseling couch and sat down.
“You haven’t come in late, so I was disappointed.”
“I am very busy.”
She subtly let go of her luck and casually crossed her legs.
With the deliberately blurred vision of her, he is still looking into her heart of her.
“I’ll have a good drink. If you’re disappointed, I’ll have to come more often in the future.”
Do Min-jung’s smile her, showing her white teeth her, made Yu-chan have an unexpected sentiment.
Her hermit crab is still hiding behind her body her.
But in her sharp tone and friendly smile, she could n’t find anything out of the ordinary.
It was understandable that all of that was acting and I hadn’t noticed it yet.
Not only was she good at work, but she was also good at adorning her appearance.
“Did I ever make you uncomfortable? If there is any misunderstanding, I want to cool it down.”
Like Yu-chan, humans do not reveal everything about themselves.
Most of them hide their true feelings in a black envelope and tremble in shame.
In this case, it was better to hit the point.
Until the envelope bursts and vomits out the contents it was hiding.
Even though you are still wary, it means that you have something you want.
“…Ah, that can’t be. I’ve just been really busy lately. How many students were looking for… “
In response to Yoo-chan’s sudden question, Min-jeong answered naturally.
Except for the two-second time lag before opening his mouth.
At the same time, ultramarine blue spray could be seen around the hermit crab that had dug into the shell a little further.
Agitation, no… Anxiety?
A little more exploration is still needed.
Her recent affair her dragged in and slowly set her on the cause of her vigilance.
It’s the first time I’ve been stabbed so many times that I can’t get a feel for it.
“That’s fortunate. I should have met you first. But I’m also troubled by Eugene’s student affairs.”
I quietly took out Eugene’s name his.
As much as Song Mi-yeong caused such a riot at the academy, Min-jeong would of course know about it.
Strictly speaking, it is an adult-adult relationship, so there is no need to wear colored glasses to see it,
Min-jung may be offended if she has the moral standards to be uncomfortable with the issue of infidelity between her teacher and her pupil.
Minjeong quickly showed interest in the topic.
It was more dramatic than Yu-chan expected, and even somewhat rude.
“You really didn’t have anything to do with Yujin Lee… Right?”
“Haha, it’s true that I’ve been solo for a long time, but I’m not trying to do anything with the academy kids. Was it because of that too?”
“Oh, no. It’s a joke, a joke~”
Contrary to the word joking, his eyes are infinitely serious.
I was honestly offended.
When Min-jeong was having a hard time at the academy, she was Yu-chan, who took the initiative and helped.
She never thought that the credibility she had built up in her would be shattered by her mere gossip her.
Yu-chan touched the edge of a luxurious coffee cup.
It was because while she was reflecting on her displeasure of her, there was one word that bothered her.
Just rumors?
His intuition His, as sharp as that of a flying beast, flashes like when chasing prey.
Yu-chan held her breath involuntarily.
What if her attitude wasn’t just swayed by rumors?
What if she looked a little deeper and shady and rolled it up.
Yu-chan watched her as she put her pointed nose to her coffee cup and savored her scent of her.
The last time I gave you a ride in the car.
I remember what she said in passing.
‘Okay, I don’t know much about perfume, but I have a good sense of smell. I can even match the breakfast Yoochan ate today.’
‘Chicken breast, salad. It looks like there are also eggs. Hmm… What is this smell?’
Then she guessed exactly what breakfast she ate based on her smell her.
She later said she was joking, but remembers that it took her a long time before she uttered the next word.
Very,
Remember exactly
‘How do I guess what I eat? Even when Yoo-chan does fitness every day and brings lunch to the academy, she only brings chicken breast and salad, and just skips it.’
Is it really just passed over?
That day was the day she confined her Naye to her house her and trained her.
If it was her scent of her, it would be permeated all over her body of her.
And Naye took a day off from academy that day.
More precisely, she was locked up in Yu-chan’s house, so she couldn’t go to the academy.
It seemed to find the point of the problem more accurately and faster than I thought.
This is an unexpected development.
If Min-jeong had the same sense of smell as a drug-sniffing dog, as she boasted, she would notice that Yoo-chan smells like Na-ye, who often asks her questions of her.
A student was absent from the academy and her teacher smelled of her.
Looking at this point, it is simply that Yu-chan enjoyed a promiscuous sex life with a young student.
It might even go beyond his moral hazard to her.
The fact that he had appealed to Do Min-jung by revealing various sincere images must have collapsed at once.
At least it is impossible to infer rape and confinement based on smell alone.
Fortunately out of misfortune
“By the way…”
Min-jeong made an unexpected proposal to Yoo-chan, who tried to buy time to think by changing her words to her.
“Sir Yuchan, are you free this evening?”
I swallowed the words I was about to say about Yoo-chan and looked closely at Min-jung’s black box again.
A hermit crab nestled much deeper than before.
Now even the two protruding antennae are digging into the shell.
The wariness has increased, and he proposes to have dinner together.
It is an inconsistent action.
Are you going to question the relationship you have with students?
She wasn’t a woman with a soft mouth, so she wouldn’t have been bragging about it here and there.
Still, she seemed to want to point out the delicate relationship between Yu-chan and her students, from her point of view her, who is proud of being a teacher.
This too is just speculation.
“Sure? What are you doing?”
“It’s just a meal together after a long time. Because I was busy too.”
I felt a sense of discomfort.
The smile that seemed so natural until now was a little awkward now.
It is far from the smile that Minjeong has shown so far.
More precisely,
The left corner of her mouth is not raised.
It’s a fake laugh
Acting out a perfectly false laugh is impossible unless you practice in a mirror like Yuchan did.
The problem was that it was impossible to determine when Minjeong started showing that false smile.
Digging through the memories unfolding in my head like a mind map.
As if contrasting the videos, Yoo-chan listed Min-jung’s facial expressions she had been watching until now in her mind her.
From around the spring of last year until today.
Some parts were blurred and mangled like an old movie film, but she was able to recall the face of Min-jung from the moment she first met her until now.
The sincere smile that made even the viewer proud by revealing the chosen teeth has been cut off since February 7th.
February 7.
The day the body was sitting on Yoo-chan’s chair.
At the same time, the day Minjeong Do wrote her annual leave her.
Sometimes unexpected coincidences draw a subtle picture.
Just laughed
“Haha.”
“Why are you smiling?”
“It’s nothing.”
It’s still nothing, right?
Because I wasn’t sure.
Yoo-chan, who made a rough appointment, saw Do Min-jeong off with a smile until the end.
