Chapter 144 – Rumors of Truth (7)
“Black… Whoa….”
Seo Joo-hwan felt sorry for Park Do-hee again.
When he heard about it from Yu So-jung, he had no intention of forgiving him, but isn’t this a little too much? After checking KakaoTalk, he couldn’t help but feel sympathy.
‘I’m sorry you threatened me….’
Even thinking about it again makes me angry.
However, he was able to shake off his emotions in that it was all for Jeong Ha-yeon.
As it turns out, it was not Park Do-hee who started the rumors, and she risked her own life to save Jeong Ha-yeon from Seo Ju-hwan’s threats to her.
Of course, it was all a misunderstanding.
Seo Joo-hwan looked at her and shook her head.
‘I was told what kind of talent acceptance is.’
Park Do-hee’s S-class talent, acceptance (受容) has two meanings in the dictionary.
The first means accepting something.
The second is to accept and enjoy art and works in the emotional realm as a basic function of appreciation.
I only knew it vaguely, but seeing Park Do-hee now, it seemed that it could be interpreted in a different way.
‘Fallangi.’
To some extent, this may be the result of merging with her innate tendencies of her, but Park Do-hee, who had the gift of acceptance, was too accepting and trusting of others’ words.
Just looking at the conversation with two disgusting bitches in a chat room.
[The deletion of Homophilia and the addition of Narratophilia may also be related.]
At Lucy’s words, Seo Ju-hwan nodded his head in agreement.
Somehow, fetishes were deleted and added too easily.
In Jeong Ha-yeon’s case, it took quite a long time before Sophophilia, a love for studying, was added.
Seo Joo-hwan shook his head, telling Park Do-hee, who was crying, not to cry. She is pitiful and sympathetic, but she has no intention of appeasing her.
Instead, he thought to give it a chance.
“… Turn it off.”
Park Do-hee swallows crying.
Seo Joo-hwan looked at her with her serious face and asked.
“I have no intention of leaving those two years alone. I plan to do anything legally possible, let alone drop out.”
“…….”
“What about you? Park Do-hee, you too got fucked hard.”
Park Do-hee’s watery eyes her shook.
Are you still conflicted?
No matter how arrogant I am, this is…….
But contrary to expectations, Park Do-hee wiped her eyes and looked at him with a clear gaze.
“… What should I do?”
There was deep anger in Park Do-hee’s eyes as she said that.
The people she believed to be her friends were the culprits who mocked her behind the scenes, covered up mistakes she did n’t make, and even bullied her when she was in middle school.
No matter how weak her affection was, she could n’t help but get angry from below.
Park Do-hee bit her lip and said with a determined face.
“The order is out of order.”
She lowered her head and continued her words.
“Brother, I am sorry. I will be punished. I will do everything you ask me to do. I’m definitely going to drop out of school.”
“…….”
“Instead, let me do something. Jisoo and Jimin… No, I hope those two years are sick too.”
“… Great. Then let’s think about it.”
Seo Joo-hwan nodded his head.
At that time, Lee Seok-chan, who was still looking at KakaoTalk, said.
“Hey, Juhwan.”
“Uh?”
“Somehow I don’t think this will be the end?”
“What?”
“Hmm. I think there’s more to these bastards. It’s just a feeling, but anyway.”
Lee Seok-chan says it’s a feeling without any basis.
However, Seo Ju-hwan took his words seriously.
‘I have to trust Seok-chan’s intuition.’
There was no basis for Lee Seok-chan’s words in his, but there was a clear basis for his belief in his in Lee Seok-chan.
Seo Joo-hwan recalled Lee Seok-chan’s status window that he had opened the other day.
〈 Lee Seok-chan 〉
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Height: 180cm
Weight: 72kg
Likeability: C+
Current sexual desire: C
Fetish: Troilism (lower), Scopophiliac (lower)
Retained Talents: Intuition (B+/S), Management (B/A+), Eye (B/A), Gaming (C+/B+), Acting (C/B+), Ability (C+/B+)
[Troilism is an act commonly referred to as a threesome. It includes three people as narrowly as a few hundred people as wide as possible. It can be seen as referring to any kind of sexual intercourse between three or more people.]
[Scopophiliac is a subtype of Troilism. For example, if the concept of a threesome is one person with two members of the opposite sex, a sub type gets aroused by seeing their partner having sex with another person.]
[It’s fortunate that the rating is low. As I said before, there is no problem up to the intermediate level, but if you have a fetish like this, it is difficult to live a normal life.]
Seo Joo-hwan heard Lee Seok-chan’s explanation of his fetish at the time and understood why he kept asking to go to the pension.
‘That’s not what’s important right now.’
Lee Seok-chan’s latent level S intuition talent.
It is a gut feeling that even the current grade has already reached B+. If such Lee Seok-chan said there was something, there was a high probability that he would be right.
Seo Joo-hwan was lost in thought and picked up his phone again to look at the KakaoTalk log. Then he stopped his hand on one sentence.
– Kim Suji: The recently released Psychic Watch was fun.
– Moon Ji-min: I’m doing that too haha But we ㅁㅋ When?
-Kim Suji: After a while
The word ‘ㅁㅋ’ expressed in initial consonants.
He had talked about games before, so of course I thought it was Malcom.
However, remember one thing that happened in the future. The word was soon connected in a different direction.
‘Mickey! There must have been a hidden camera incident about a year later!’
At the time, the culprit was identified as a man, not a woman.
According to Seo Joo-hwan’s memory, he remembers that one of the men in Class B was singled out as the culprit and dropped out.
‘What happened after you dropped out? I haven’t heard of him being taken in.’
At the time, he only thought he was fortunate that he was not singled out for all sorts of misfortunes, but now that he thinks about it, he remembered hearing a rumor that the man had been acquitted.
‘Are there still hidden cameras?’
I don’t know exactly when it was installed. But it was well worth checking out.
Seo Joo-hwan was lost in his thoughts and called Lee Seok-chan aside.
Lee Seok-chan asked, narrowing his eyes.
“For what?”
“Let’s borrow some strength from the grandson of the conglomerate family. Does anyone know about your law?”
“Well what…….”
Lee Seok-chan shook his head and nodded.
Not only did he know it, but he had already been indebted to it a few times. It was because he had quite a few fist fights when he was in high school, even because of those who slandered Jeong Ha-yeon.
Seo Joo-hwan grinned and patted Lee Seok-chan on the shoulder.
“Wouldn’t it be disheartening to simply drop them out?”
“Yeah, that’s right. So I’m thinking of suing for defamation.”
“No, I think there must be something stronger than that.”
“What is it?”
“At school… Not. Wait a minute.”
Seo Joo-hwan stopped what he was saying and took out his phone.
“Wait a minute.”
Park Do-hee, who was contacted soon after, came out.
Park Do-hee, who is still under the obedience effect, stood in front of him while watching him.
Seo Joo-hwan clicked his tongue and tousled Park Do-hee’s hair. Her eyes widened in surprise at her playful hand gesture of her, but he didn’t care.
“I have something for you.”
“Ah… Yes. Please do anything, brother.”
Seo Joo-hwan explained the plan to the two.
Today is Friday afternoon class.
Weekend after one day.
I was thinking of finishing it before that.

Rumors spread quickly.
In particular, the bigger the issue, the faster it spreads.
Even more so if it is in a narrow department.
“You say they are? Right?”
“Right. Suji Kim and Jimin Moon. Oh, was Park Do-hee included?”
“No. Do-hee is a victim who was manipulated by them.”
“Ah. Somehow, he secretly looked down on Dohee.”
“They have no shame. Why did you come to school? Just stuck at home.”
It had only been a day, but in the Department of Publication and Content, everything that had happened the day before had spread and no one was aware of it.
Seo Joo-hwan did not have to bother with work, but the girls who were with Jung Ha-yeon the day before spread the rumor.
“… Suzy, what should we do?”
Moon Ji-min shook his neck and said in an anxious tone.
At that, Suji Kim distorts her face and glares at Jimin Moon.
“What should I do? It’s over.”
“…….”
“Don’t ask me because I’m annoyed. If only you had n’t given Jeong Ha-yeon her phone her in the first place…!”
“Yeah, but I was scared, what can I do! You didn’t even say anything!”
“I didn’t give you my phone!”
“So you’re saying it’s all my fault?!”
The two raised their voices from the empty back of the department.
It was Kim Soo-ji who calmed down first.
“Whoa. Anyway, now is not the time to fight among ourselves. You can just drop out of school.”
“Now, drop out? Just taking a break…”
“How many years are you going to take a leave of absence? Since we’re freshmen, there will still be people we know after 4 years? It’s not even 4 years, considering that they go on a military vacation.”
“… Black.”
“…….”
Suji Kim barely held back the urge to shout again.
Do you think I’m the only one who wants to cry? She was also anxious and scared and wanted to cry.
