Chapter 492 – Family Trip With Keitel Street
Swann, who had been waiting for an opportunity to talk to Lane, approached him as soon as his parents were away.
‘I’m curious, I’m so curious, I think I’m going crazy.’
I was very curious whether he was really the unknown masked man who saved me.
First, I couldn’t tell because her body was covered by a suit, but her sharp eyes were telling.
There is definitely something about this man, and his body is quite similar to the masked man I saw back then.
So, I deliberately pretended to have a conversation and asked a lot of questions related to the body.
He thought that if he kept asking questions like this, he wouldn’t be too suspicious.
You would think that it is natural for a young person to be interested in external things.
‘I want to see you soon.’
I want to take off her suit and shirt and see if it’s the person who saved her that time.
While she continued to talk, she looked around her body and eventually came to a conclusion.
‘It can’t go on like this.’
No matter how sharp your eyes are, you cannot know the body of someone wearing a suit like that.
Swan, who thought he couldn’t tell the result just by looking at it, decided to put his plan into action.
Quite naturally, she pretends to stumble because of the heels she is wearing and spills the wine in her hand onto his clothes.
She was confident that she learned the basics of acting when she was young.
While she was talking with that thought in mind, Lane’s gaze turned to the mercenaries who were having a brief conversation, and she put her plan into action.
“What?!”
I turn the wine in my hand towards him, pretending that I will fall because of my heels.
As he stumbled, the wine glass in his hand tilted towards him, and the wine inside was about to splash on his clothes.
-Chin
“Are you okay?”
Lane, who was looking away from her, used her ghostly senses to catch Swan as she was about to fall while dodging the pouring wine.
“Eh…?”
In the end, she cried out that she didn’t understand why she couldn’t achieve what she wanted and was caught by Lane.
The wine was definitely about to touch my clothes, but I avoided it. Even though she wasn’t paying attention to herself, she was looking somewhere else.
It was a situation that a normal person would never have been able to react to, so it was absurd to avoid it.
“Swan, are you okay?”
“Yes, yes? Yes… It’s okay. Thank you.”
Unable to achieve what she wanted, she was ultimately disappointed and had no choice but to thank him for holding her.
Swan still can’t come to his senses, as if he didn’t think this plan would fail.
Jinseok Lee thought as he looked at her like that. She said she was aiming for this.
———————————
The first time I had doubts was after we started talking comfortably.
Swann explicitly asked me questions related to my body and asked if I had studied martial arts or anything.
At first, I thought he was just very interested in the body, but when I looked at it with [Eyes of sexual desire], It wasn’t like that at all.
So she started to suspect me from then on and I realized that she had a different purpose.
And what made me certain was when I checked the information one more time using [Eye of Lust] Just in case.
Name: Swan Keitel.
Age: 22
Height: 168cm Weight: 62kg
Breasts: G cup
Erogenous zones: vagina, nipples, anus, throat
Virginity: Yes
Sexual preference: Intense sex that destroys all one’s dignity.
Sexual desire: medium
Status: I suspect you are the masked man.
After briefly checking the status that tells me what the other person is thinking, I found that she was clearly suspicious of me.
In that case, what action should I take to confirm my identity when I show a loophole?
I deliberately turned her gaze toward where her family was talking, so she could spot my loophole, and she immediately took action.
“What?!”
He stays still and then suddenly pretends to stumble and tries to spill wine on me.
Since I was at a close distance, I could clearly read his actions using my senses without having to see him with my eyes, so I did not deal with him.
Look at the direction in which the wine is pouring, avoid it, then approach the side and catch the staggering Swan.
“Eh…?”
She made such an idiotic noise that she probably didn’t know that I could dodge and catch the wine that was about to be poured by surprise when I was off guard.
‘There’s no way around it.’
I knew what he was going to do, but I had no intention of letting him suffer.
“What’s going on!”
After looking down at the swan she had caught for a moment, Chairman Ron heard her scream and came running towards her.
After explaining the situation to him, I handed Swan over to Chairman Ron.
‘It’s clearly visible, so you can’t do that.’
Of course, she probably didn’t know that I could read thoughts, but she didn’t do this to me because I had eyes of lust.
“I think it would be a good idea to take a break.”
“I see, I’m sorry, but I’ll be gone for a moment. And thank you so much for holding my granddaughter.”
When I said that, Chairman Ron thanked me and left the restaurant with Swan.
“Is your son okay?”
“Yes, I just caught it.”
“Thank goodness.”
I just stayed next to her and held her because she almost fell, but my mom was worried about me and held her hand.
It felt a little uncomfortable to be treated like a child even though I was all grown up, but since it was worth it, I decided to just ignore it.
Her mother’s worries became a little excessive when I told her I almost got kidnapped.
“Well done.”
My dad next to me looked at me and told me I did a good job holding the swan.
It seemed like he was telling her that it was a good thing he protected her because it would have hurt her dignity if she had fallen unsightly here.
‘It’s all an act.’
I knew it was an act, but everyone who wasn’t watching the whole situation didn’t know.
After the incident passed, my parents said they would introduce me to the mercenaries and took me to where they were.
——————————-
‘How is that possible?’
After being led by Chairman Ron’s hand and being told to go back to the room and rest for a while, she sat alone on the bed and thought about what had just happened.
In her opinion, it was perfect timing. The other person’s gaze was focused in the other direction, and he tried to take advantage of that moment to spill the wine.
However, the other person was not even looking at us, but he reacted in an instant and dodged the pouring wine and caught him.
If there was a little distance, I would have understood, but since we were so close, I never thought I would be able to react.
‘There is definitely something…’
She tried to check her body by pouring wine on her clothes, but it had already failed.
But after seeing his reaction today, she was sure there was something there.
No matter how physically capable she was, it was close to impossible for her to react from that distance.
I didn’t see how the masked man dealt with the mercenaries who kidnapped him.
‘Everyone had broken necks…’
The sound of a gun with a silencer heard from outside, and the state of the corpses checked after the masked man left.
I felt a bit nauseous because it was my first time seeing a corpse, but it wasn’t difficult to examine because it wasn’t bleeding and only had a broken neck.
And one most important point. There were many holes in the clothes that saved him.
‘That must have been a bullet hole.’
That was why Swan wanted to see Lane’s naked body. Because I clearly remembered the color of the skin seen through the hole at that time.
It was strange that there were no wounds even though there were bullet marks on the clothes.
His skin would have been visible through the hole, so he wasn’t wearing a bulletproof vest.
Nevertheless, he saved her and left without shedding a single drop of her blood.
It doesn’t make sense, but he was hit by a bullet with a human body and didn’t get any wounds.
Because she is the granddaughter of a military company, she knows how powerful her guns are.
However, the fact that there was no wound after being hit by such a bullet meant that he did not have an ordinary human body.
How could anyone get shot without even wearing a bulletproof vest and still not get hurt?
‘There’s definitely something there…’
When she remembered Lane’s incredible reaction speed today, she thought that he must have a connection with the Masked Man.
A reaction speed so fast that it’s hard to believe it’s an ordinary human being. When he was caught off guard by the wine that was already pouring, he just dodged it.
Recalling her memories from that time, she even wanted to reveal something that Lane was hiding.
——————-
I met and talked to the mercenaries who worked with her parents, but to be honest, there wasn’t much to talk about.
When I explained that, unlike my parents, I was just living a normal life while attending college, they didn’t have much to talk about.
The only person I can talk to is Chrome, who has a family with my parents.
Rachel and Ross had been mercenaries since they were children, so they didn’t have much to talk to me about as adults.
Chrome said that he already has an adult daughter, so we started a little conversation, but that’s it.
In order to delve into a proper topic, I would have to work as a mercenary or something, but since I didn’t have that, all I could do was superficial conversation.
Are you going to college well? If you are an adult, you should know how to take responsibility for your own affairs.
‘I’m bored.’
It was boring because it was always just conversations that adults used when having formal conversations.
When the military topic came up in the middle, the conversation became a little more lively, but that was only for a moment.
This was because there were quite a few differences between the U.S. And Korean militaries, so conversations did not proceed smoothly.
Korean soldiers rarely receive combat training unless they are in a specialized branch such as special forces.
‘I was surprised when they said they would do tactical training with live ammunition.’
When I heard Ross’ story about joining the army as a sergeant and becoming a mercenary to make more money, there were many comparisons.
Of course, he enlisted as a non-commissioned officer and may have had many differences from me as a soldier, but what was surprising.
This side went to protect the country and their specialty was infantry, so they just had to march or die to maintain the camp, but they said they had real combat training, so it was a little sad.
‘It’s definitely different because it’s a volunteer system.’
The conversation, which had been briefly sparked by talk of the military, quickly subsided, and from then on, the conversation was mainly about mercenaries.
Chairman Ron tried to talk to me from time to time, saying he would be considerate of me, but that only lasted a moment.
In the end, rather than having a conversation, I was the one who just listened quietly and agreed.
‘I’m glad we have a system.’
If there wasn’t a system, they speak English at a level that wouldn’t even be understandable.
There was a translation function, so I was able to follow the conversation. Otherwise, I would have kept shouting pardon me.
I think my parents were briefly impressed by my English skills, but they didn’t show it outwardly.
I just think he studied because his parents were working as mercenaries in a foreign country.
In the first place, I didn’t know English well, so I spoke awkwardly as the system told me, so I didn’t have any doubts.
Afterward, the dinner was over and we each went home. On the way home, I quickly closed my eyes due to boredom at the party.
So the next day. My parents’ escort work was all over, and now all that was left was to spend time with my family, but that suddenly changed.
“Old Ron wants to go on a trip to the sea with you today?”
“Isn’t the escort job over?”
“It wasn’t an escort, he just said he wanted to go see the ocean with Jinseok, who is his granddaughter’s age.”
Although Swann has some close personal friends, there are some lines between them all.
The reason was that I couldn’t play comfortably because I always lived under the guard of bodyguards.
In that situation, I, along with her parents who have good skills, are around the same age as her.
I think President Ron asked me to do it because he had a personal relationship with me and could trust my parents.
“Jinseok, what do you think?”
“I think it’ll be okay?”
I wanted to stay away from Swan as much as possible, but when Chairman Ron asked me to go to a private beach this time, I wanted to go there.
I had never been to a private beach in my life, so I was curious.
‘If you’re careful anyway, you won’t get caught.’
Getting caught wasn’t much of a concern as long as you were careful. My face and voice were covered with a mask, so how would I know?
Moreover, even if they are caught, there is no proper evidence, so they will end up just being suspicious.
When I thought about that, I decided that there was no need to avoid this area.
When I said I would go, my father, who always respects the opinions of his family first, nodded.
Her mother didn’t need to ask for her opinion because she always liked to go out to play.
I was already sitting there packing my bags and thinking about what swimsuit to wear.
‘I hope Cynthia is doing well.’
She said it was a one-night, two-day trip, so she needed to check Cynthia’s condition from time to time, so she didn’t see anything special yet.
Because of her trauma, she was so shocked that she just sat on her bed and passed the time.
‘It won’t be any problem.’
With that in mind, I looked forward to the sea I would go to this time without any worries.
