Chapter 59 – Episode 59
After finishing her lunch and sex by cumming in Ga-hye’s mouth, she spent the rest of her afternoon leisurely.
I came down there just to rest, I was a little tired, and Ga-hye wanted to roll around…
After such a peaceful afternoon, Gahye’s father returned.
“Are you hungry?”
The man smiled kindly and held out the plastic bag in her hand to us.
“What is that, Dad?”
“I bought it on the way. It’s your favorite Geoje.”
“What~?”
What was in the bag was a hamburger.
It was not a franchise hamburger commonly seen in the city.
The packaging I saw for the first time, and the packaging looked somewhat shabby.
However, when the packaging was removed, what was revealed was a delicious-looking homemade hamburger.
“Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve had this~! Junseok, this is really delicious!”
“Uh, uh…”
I could tell just by looking at it that it was delicious.
The bread and vegetables were ordinary, but the patty in the middle was very thick and juicy.
But while saying that, I felt burdened by Gahye offering me a hamburger.
My father is watching right in front of me.
“Now, hurry. Ah,~ ah.”
The man didn’t react at all.
Even when his daughter showed her cuteness and offered me a hamburger and said ‘Ah~’, the man’s expression didn’t change.
‘Is it okay to think of it as being accredited…’
I took a bite of the hamburger that Ga-hye held out, looking at the man’s notice.
The man still had no reaction.
***
After finishing dinner, I went out of the house.
It was to talk alone with the man who was smoking.
“Hmm? Do you smoke too?”
“No.”
Well, it’s good that you came out to ask questions… But what should I say?
After thinking about it for a while, I decided to just throw it right away.
“Uncle, there are a few things I’d like to ask you…”
“What is it?”
The man was smiling in a friendly way.
“I… I heard from my father that he was asking me to take charge of Gahye because his situation was not good.”
“Yes.”
“The circumstances are not favorable…”
Is it true?
Before you ask that question, the man plays first.
“I’m sorry. For some reason, I’ve caused you a lot of trouble. Thank you very much. Maybe you’re short on money or something? Ga-hye eats a lot, but then I’ll have to pay at least a little bit for living expenses…”
“No, no. That’s not it. Ga-hye is not a wasteful child, and she is not short of money.”
“Well, I’m glad.”
“If you don’t mind asking me why things aren’t so good…”
The man smokes a cigarette without answering those words.
He quietly takes a sip and exhales smoke.
For that moment, the man’s expression wasn’t very good.
It was the first time I saw Gahye’s expression after coming down here.
“… Well, when you run a ranch, you spend a lot of money here and there, right? If you manage to save that money and keep going, no matter how much money you have, it’s not enough. But if you’re going to sell the cows, how can I sell the livestock I’ve raised all my life? ?”
“Well, of course.”
“Somehow, since I had to take responsibility, this became something I couldn’t handle. Do you understand what I mean?”
No, I’m not sure.
I asked more questions about the strangely rambling man.
“Maybe I owe money to the ranch…”
“No, the debt is useless.”
The man reacted immediately to the word debt.
“Anyway, thank you for coming to my quiet house.”
“Oh, yes.”
The man began to awkwardly but clearly show his intention to refuse.
Just suddenly changing the topic.
“Rest in peace with Ga-hye. Ga-hye. I feel so fortunate that a man who is as reliable as my Jun-gil son becomes Ga-hye’s boyfriend.”
With those last words, the man put out his cigarette and went into the house.
“…”
Let’s summarize it first.
It seems like you don’t have any money.
As soon as I brought up the topic, I asked, ‘Would you like me to help you with living expenses?’ From what you asked, I guess it means you have money to give me.
And according to what the uncle said, there is no debt on the ranch.
But looking at that reaction, it’s hard to believe that.
Didn’t you immediately stop talking when you heard the word ‘debt’?
Even though I asked openly, my curiosity was not satisfied.
In that case, the only thing left is for me to find out…
‘Is that okay?’
Digging into personal circumstances.
Can I do this on my own?
As I thought about that, Gahye’s face came to mind.
Gahye ate more than usual on the way down.
Ga-hye comes down and asks for sex more than usual.
Definitely a different and anxious look than usual.
‘Let’s take a look.’
If it’s related to Gahye, you definitely need to find out.
***
The next morning, I went out into the city alone and headed to a PC room.
A good way to find out if someone has debt is to check if the debt is tied up in that person’s house.
Usually, when you take on a large debt, you use your house as collateral.
Now, it’s lecture time.
Can someone else check whether a house is in debt or not?
The answer is ‘yes.’
After accessing the Internet registry office, enter the street number of the house you want to check in the real estate registration search box.
And when you search, voila!
The owner of the house appears.
And when you press the button next to the owner…
“What is this…”
Before I pressed the button, words flowed out of my mouth without me realizing it.
I couldn’t find out the name because it was only the last name, but the owner of Ga-hye’s father’s house was not Ga-hye’s father.
Song XX.
… Why is someone other than Mr. Lim the owner of a house where my mother is no longer there?
It’s not like I owe you anything.
***
After that, I checked with the owner of the ranch just in case.
I checked the addresses of barns and simple buildings as much as I could, and found that the owner of those buildings was Mr. Song.
‘Gahye’s father pretends that someone else’s house is his own?’
That’s strange.
This is the house where Ga-hye has lived since she was young, so in reality, that house is Ga-hye’s father’s house.
So, it is difficult to say that someone would lie about someone else’s house.
What I’m curious about here is something else.
It’s not about why Gahye’s father lives in someone else’s house.
The actual residents are Gahye and her father, so why is the owner Song and not Lim?
With my curiosity growing, the next place I headed was real estate.
Real estate is a place where you are familiar with the situation of the neighborhood.
There is a lot of information you can get just by talking well.
You might be able to find out who Mr. Song is by pretending to look for a place to live.
“Hello.”
“Welcome.”
When I opened the real estate store and entered, a somewhat strict-looking young lady welcomed me.
“I’d like to take a look at the house…”
“You’re not from around here? What kind of house are you looking for?”
“Actually, I’m thinking of a ranch.”
“Ranch? Hmm… This isn’t a town famous for ranches…”
A real estate woman squinting.
“Actually, I was passing by and saw a ranch that I liked. Why do I get there when I take the bus there…”
“Ah, it’s Mr. Lim.”
Hmm, it seems like this person also knows that the ranch belongs to Ga-hye’s father.
“I guess Mr. Lim..? Is the owner of the ranch?”
“Yes, but I can’t buy that house.”
“He doesn’t dig it?”
“You won’t think about it?”
Since he’s been running the ranch for about 20 years, you’d think he wouldn’t sell it.
“Then I’d like to talk about it. Can’t I at least get that person’s contact information?”
“More than anywhere else, Mr. Lim…”
The lady was searching something on her computer and opened her mouth.
“Oh, this is not something I should contact Mr. Lim.”
It was good!
“The landlord’s contact number is 010-XXXX-XXXX? Please call there.”
“His name is exactly…”
“This is Song Se-hyeon. Song Se-hyeon.”
“Thank you.”
That’s how I succeeded in getting the name and contact information of the landlord.
***
Before calling the actual homeowner, I wanted to gather some information about him or her.
So first I returned to the ranch.
“Song Se-hyun? Who is that…”
First of all, Mr. Seonghun.
It would be better to ask people around you first rather than the person involved.
“Is this your first time hearing this?”
“Yeah. Does anyone live around here? What’s going on?”
“No, it’s just that… It’s nothing special, I know someone at work, and he lives nearby. I was wondering if you could tell me his address and say hello if you knew…”
Now that I say it, it’s a really weak and awkward excuse.
This is where I get in trouble for moving right away.
But Mr. Seonghun didn’t seem to think anything of it.
“I don’t know, but check the phone book. There’s one in the warehouse.”
“Yes?”
A phone book?
“It might be written down.”
“Is there a phone book…?”
“Yes, it’s still there. People in Seoul don’t know about it, but they still use it in places like this.”
“Well, I see…”
It was a shock.
Even when I was young, it was like an ancient relic, but I can’t believe I’m still using it.
After thanking the man, I headed to the warehouse in the corner of the ranch.
“Wow…”
A phone book found after searching in a corner.
From the color alone, you can tell that it has been rotting for a long time.
If it’s this old, I don’t think there’s any helpful information at all.
While thinking about that, I opened the book and slowly looked up the name ‘Song Se-hyeon’.
“Song Se-hyun, Song Se-hyun… Ah, there it is.”
To avoid confusion, there was only one person.
I looked at the address below and tried to call the phone number attached to that address before stopping.
‘What should I do by calling?’
We still don’t know the exact relationship between Song Se-hyun and Ga-hye’s father.
I guess it might be Gahye’s mother who left a long time ago, but…
It is hasty to make such a judgment without any evidence.
Just like when Seong-Hoon asked Mr. Uncle a question, if I suddenly call without thinking, I will only end up in an awkward position.
‘If you call and suddenly ask, ‘Are you Gahye’s mother?’ You might be treated like a weirdo.’
What I want to know is the relationship between Song Se-hyun and Ga-hye’s father.
If you are treated like a weirdo for no reason, you may not be able to get the information you want.
You’ll be lucky if you don’t get reported as a suspicious guy.
‘What should I do…’
While thinking about it, I took a cell phone photo of the address written below.
Let’s go first.
Think about what to do on the way.
So thirty minutes later.
What I saw in front of the address I arrived at was Gahye’s father coming out of the house.
