Chapter 51 – Episode 51: Knight Revival (1)
Cafe near Mirae Special School
In one corner of a quiet cafe, four women were sitting and chatting.
“Final exams are over, and vacation is almost over.”
“So, Eunseo, what are you going to do during vacation?”
Miju took a sip of the cold chocolate drink in front of her and asked Eunseo.
“Well, I think I might do a short-term part-time job. What about Miju? You don’t have to work part-time.”
Miju, who is relatively wealthy compared to Eunseo and Sihyeon, answered with an ambiguous expression.
“Well, I’m not short on pocket money right now. If I don’t have anything to do, I might go on a trip. Considering I’m going to get a job right away without going to college, now is the only time I have to go out and have fun.”
“I’m jealous, I’m jealous. Sihyeon, what about you?”
“First of all, it’s a concert. I have to go to the Four Angels’ local performances and there’s a lot to do.”
“As expected, the fan club president is busy.”
Even while chatting about various things, one person did not participate in the conversation and just listened to the conversation with a sullen expression.
“I wonder if something is wrong with Hyehyun…”
Miju carefully examined Hyehyeon’s condition with a worried expression.
Eunseo and Hyehyun met for the first time through volleyball team activities and became close friends through their personalities, while Hyehyun and Miju knew each other before entering a special school. Compared to Yeji, who had a cold personality and was less sociable, Hyehyun had a somewhat insider temperament, so she was friendly with everyone. She was used to catering to Yeji’s mood and was quick to notice, which also contributed to Hyehyeon’s personal fighting skills.
Most of the students who went to special schools have been in groups since high school, and in some cases, like Hye-hyeon and Yeong-seo, they are acquaintances. Hye-hyeon and Mi-ju were in a similar situation.
Eunseo’s group hated Yeji’s family very much, but Hyehyun was an exception, and even when Hyehyeon was with Yeji, she maintained a good relationship with Eunseo’s group.
“Oh, I guess important data was lost recently.”
Eun-seo took care of Hye-hyeon, who was still suffering from the psychological trauma suffered by A-yeon. In fact, when we met today, Hye-hyeon did not want to come out of her house, but she half-forced her to go to sleep, even if it was windy. Eunseo knew roughly what happened to Hyehyeon.
“Oh really? What should I do… Is it a phone or a computer?”
“I backed up both of them, but they all seem to have disappeared.”
“How could something like that happen all of a sudden…? Have you inquired about recovery?”
Cell phone forensic recovery, which appears in most investigative films and news, is now a term familiar to the general public.
“If the period is long, the probability is low, but if it’s recent, it might be possible, right?”
Eunseo looked at Hyehyeon with anticipation, and Hyehyeon, who had been quiet the whole time, opened her mouth.
“I checked… But I guess it’s difficult to restore because it was saved using a special security app. I also contacted the app company, but only got an answer saying it wasn’t possible. So I just lost my money.”
The data recovery request had a basic request fee regardless of whether it was successful or not, so Hye-hyeon, who was already heartbroken, became even more depressed.
Did you say that people’s moods are contagious? When one person was in a depressed mood, the other three people tried to lighten their mood somehow, but their tension also dropped and the four of them just sipped their own drinks for a while.
“Ah!!”
Sihyeon, who was taking a bite of the piece of cake she ordered for dessert, suddenly screamed.
“You said you backed it up on your computer too, right? I heard it’s possible to restore deleted files on your computer too?”
“I checked that too.”
Hye-hyeon smiled weakly.
“I looked through the trash can and it was empty.”
“Uh… That’s not it…”
At Hye-hyeon’s answer to her, Si-hyeon looked dumbfounded and told him what she knew.
“You know that I broadcast on the Internet, right? Sometimes I can’t see a file and when I look at it, I accidentally delete it. But even if I deleted it from the trash, it remained as a record on my computer , so I recovered it. It was a long time ago, so I remembered it now.”
“Really?!!”
Hye-hyeon asked back to Si-hyeon with her eyes wide open and confirmed again in her most excited voice in a while.
“How do you do that? Do I have to go to a professional company? Do you even want to be around here? That would cost a lot of money…?”
When Si-hyeon saw that Hye-hyeon had survived, she felt fortunate and shared as much information as she could.
“It’s very simple. There are good explanations on the Internet these days, so Hye-hyun, you can probably do it too. It’s true that there are separate computer recovery companies, but they usually ask for them when the hardware, that is, physically breaks down. Deleted If you just want to recover files, you can probably do it with just a program.”
Sihyeon, who quenched her thirst with her coffee in the middle, continued her words.
“There are a variety of recovery programs. The price is also much cheaper than outsourcing. It may vary depending on the number of files to be recovered and their capacity, right? In order to get people to try out their program, there will probably be be be a program that you can use for free, like a trial version. Anyway, What can be restored for free is limited, both in number and capacity.”
The more she listened to Si-hyeon’s explanation, the faster Hye-hyeon’s head spun her, just like when she was tormenting Ye-ji. It didn’t matter what it cost her. If she followed Si-hyeon’s explanation, she didn’t think it would be too much of a burden.
‘If only computer files could be recovered…’
Hye-hyeon was planning a trap to take down Ye-ji, A-yeon, and Sia all at once, but she couldn’t think of a way to execute it. Whether it was favor or inducement, she will now be unconditionally suspicious and wary of her actions.
No matter how much you set a trap to catch its fatal weakness, if the opponent doesn’t get caught, it’s all good. However, if she can resurrect Yeji’s weakness her …
‘We can push those bitches into the abyss more clearly.’
The three of them changed the topic and started talking, except for Hye-hyeon, who was lost in her thoughts and became silent again.
“But is Sihyeon continuing to broadcast?”
“Oh, but I’m actually thinking about it.”
“Huh? Why? You worked really hard. Even while running the Four Angels fan club.”
“But it’s not easy. It’s hard to attract viewers.”
“I guess there were about 100 people now?”
“Yes, if the show goes well, there will be about 200 people? But since the sponsorship is different, there is almost no income.”
Eunseo and Miju responded with surprise.
“Usually, if you’re pretty and have a good body, aren’t there a lot of people looking at you? Sihyeon would be popular.”
“So. Other kids just sit around and do a lot. You do a lot of content, right?”
Sihyeon sighed at the comfort of the two.
“That’s right. In the beginning, I was a bit drawn to it, but not anymore these days. Plus, people who have similar broadcast content and broadcast time as me are also flocking to that side. Oh, it’s really annoying.”〈 Br〉
“What? Who is that person?”
“It’s called Sia Asia. They sold their trainee status to attract viewers and then came out with something that wasn’t even that pretty. Aren’t those guys who suck at bitches really stupid?”
“Siasiara…”
Eunseo searched on her phone her her her, and search results immediately came up with her her her her her. She was a woman with provocative charm, with eye makeup that accentuated her trainee-like beauty.
“Well, I broadcast music on the same chatter broadcast as you and dance to communicate.”
In Eunseo’s opinion, she had little in common other than music-related content and age. She had a completely different appearance, didn’t have much exposure, and seemed to have much more diverse content.
Still, she says she prefers crabs, and she couldn’t praise Sia in front of Sihyeon.
“Just looking at you, Sihyeon, you’re much better. Your face and body are nothing compared to that. If you plan the content well, you’ll win.”
“Really? Thank you, but I’m still wondering if I should continue the broadcast.”
“But where have you seen him before?”
Eunseo’s words made me curious about who Miju was, so I started searching on my phone. Hye-hyeon, who was lost in her thoughts of her, also became curious about who she was talking about, so she glanced at Eun-seo’s cell phone next to her.
“Who are you talking about? Streamer Sia Asia… Sia? Ek? This is Yushia?!”
It took a while to recognize her because she was usually undressed and wore glasses, but Sia’s face came to mind as it overlapped with her her her her name her her her, and she was soon able to recognize her identity of her her her her as it overlapped with her her broadcast image her her her.
“Yushia? That quiet girl who follows Yeji around?”
“Oh, that’s right, I think she said she was broadcasting too. I wasn’t impressed because she had a very demure image.”
Hye-hyeon made a bitter expression as she recalled the memory of Sia, whom she thought she was gentle, losing strength and even having to urinate after a blow from Sia.
“That’s right, that’s right, Yushia.”
“When I heard it, it looked similar.”
Eunseo and Miju also agreed with Hyehyeon’s words, comparing the search results with Sia’s her face, which they occasionally encountered.
“Oh, somehow. Didn’t there happen to be an exposed girl at our school before? There was a lot of noise in her room her back then too? I wondered how she knew, but it turned out it was because she it was at our school.”
“It’s amazing, really.”
“This guy has a lot of viewers…”
Si-hyeon waved her hand at Mi-joo, who spoke while looking at the number of viewers and then cut back on her words while looking at Si-hyeon’s notice her.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I was also trying to find a girl from our school to see if I could use it after stepping on it. But if it was Yeji’s, that would have been too.”
“No, there is a chance.”
Hye-hyeon continued to stare at her somewhere and muttered to herself.
“Huh? What?”
The remaining three, unable to properly hear Hye-hyeon’s words, looked at her at the same time.
“Huh? No, I was thinking about something else for a moment.”
Hye-hyeon’s gaze her her, looking around, was once again fixed on the menu board of her cafe in the distance.
