Vol 4 - 12

Jeong Changin stopped as he entered the room.

As soon as he opened the door and walked in, he could clearly feel the cold atmosphere and chills down his spine.

Riegrow is sitting in front of his desk.

One hand resting on his chin, he remained silent, deep in thought. Those cold eyes seemed to have frozen to the point that only a gloomy color remained.

What is this. He had only left the room for ten or twenty minutes at most, but when he returned, the atmosphere in the room made his chest feel as if it were being squeezed.

Jeong Changin struggled himself for a while. He didn't want to continue entering his own room but couldn't turn around and leave. So he could only go in quietly. Jeong Changin knew that once his cold eyes turned to a gloomy color with such an expressionless face, how dangerous it would be.

He quietly closed the door behind him and tilted his head. Maybe he knew he had come in, but he didn't even glance once and just remained silent, deep in thought. When there is work to discuss, Ilay, his brother, Jeong Changin and UNHRDO connect and will meet and talk face to face if possible. If it was in the past when the two brothers were on the other side of the world, they would often talk on the phone with many layers of security, but anyway, that was not a good way. Although blocking multiple layers of detectors to confirm the call source will not fear information leakage when making calls, the reality is that nothing is perfect, once that layer of security is activated. If active, the possibility of being detected will still occur.

They can call as much as they like, but it's not good to do it too often. So they will only discuss basic trivial matters over the phone and will talk more about important parts when meeting in person, or they can use someone they trust to communicate. .

That seemed to become the norm, and even after Riegrow moved to Hong Kong they would still see each other from time to time. Due to the nature of the organization's operations, UNHRDO says that cables inside branches are safer than cables equipped with security devices outside the branch, but it is not necessary to use security devices. while in the same building.

Today too, they will discuss work, specifically about power relationships within the branch. To discuss matters, Riegrow came to his office after a long time. But just as they talked for a while, Mao contacted Changin for the same reason and he had to leave for a while for about 10 minutes or maybe longer, but it was only about 20 minutes.

Riegrow looked through the bookshelves while waiting for him, and was deep in thought with an expressionless face when Jeong Changin entered the room.

"....."

It doesn't seem very good.

Jeong Changin thought as he approached him with an indifferent expression. In his memory, this atmosphere had never led to good results, especially if the person facing you was a monster covered in ice.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting. Are you reading a book?"

He pretended like he didn't know the current situation, but Riegrow didn't answer. It seemed like he was still immersed in his own thoughts and didn't bother to glance once.

He wanted to reduce the current unpleasant atmosphere to the lowest level possible. Only a few dozen minutes have passed, there must be some reason for this situation.

Jeong Changin was wearing the uniform he had to wear at night during a meeting with his superiors. He took it off and quietly tilted his head. Okay, problem by problem, let's think of a possible point.

Riegrow has been in such a bad mood for a while now. He put on a ferocious aura so that even those who did not know his cruelty before could clearly perceive it. Jeong Changin knows clearly when this situation started.

That was the night Taeui left UNHRDO.

That day, Jeong Changin's heart sank. His nephew came to say goodbye to him before leaving, but he didn't say a word. When Taeui arrived, he only brought a sports bag and a slight nod through the half-closed door. Jeong Changin sent the boy off with just one nod as if he were invisible.

"Uncle. I think you're taking advantage of me."

Even though his nephew was angry and cold towards him, Jeong Changin still missed him. Even if his ultimate desire is far from what everyone thinks.

After Taeui left, Jeong Changin sat there silently for a while before slowly getting up. Things like this are just trivial things. He still has a lot to do. What he created himself should be eliminated himself.

Jeong Changin came to Riegrow's room, it could be said that he was also his accomplice. Because he also assisted him in this matter.

It was late, but he didn't care.

Riegrow is a person who, even if he is sleeping soundly, can still immediately wake up if anyone stands in front of his room door. Jeong Changin knocked on the door without hesitation. But unexpectedly, there was no movement at all. Maybe he was in the bathroom or listening to music so he didn't hear it. Jeong Changin knocked on the door again, this time the knock was a little stronger. Then he heard a noise from inside.

"Rick? Can I come in?"

Having finished speaking, Jeong Changin opened the door a little and looked inside. At that moment, he felt like he was about to suffocate.

An unexpected scene opened before his eyes. Even in his dreams he could not have imagined this scenario.

Riegrow is tied up.

His wrists were handcuffed to the bedpost, he could only lie still and could not move.

As if crazy, Riegrow slowly raised his eyelids and looked towards Jeong Changin. It was as if he had just woken up from unconsciousness.

However, his vision is still not clear. His eyes blinked a few times as if he was gradually recovering the part of his consciousness that had just been clouded.

At the same time, Jeong Changin felt a strange yet familiar scent. Even though the air conditioner was heavily ventilated, the smell of Chloroform still lingered in the air.

It seemed like that was the reason why Riegrow lost consciousness.

Who could possibly do this to him?

Perhaps Jeong Changin was the first person to consider that possibility. He didn't have to think long to get his own answer. There's no reason at all. As soon as that question appeared in his mind, he immediately thought of someone.

Taeui... ....Before leaving here, he must have done that and ran away.

Jeong Changin clicked his tongue and entered the room and approached Riegrow. The key to his handcuffs was placed right on the table next to the bed.

I don't know if it was one of the things that drove him crazy or not, but his eyes were so cold, as if there was something within his reach but he could only helplessly look at it without being able to reach out because his consciousness is still hazy.

Changin didn't know if this key could really catch his eye as he was still trying to find a way to escape these iron bars. He picked up the key and glanced at his watch. At this time, Taeui was already on the ship heading to Hong Kong. Even if he used all his strength to chase after him, he still wouldn't be able to make it in time.

He unlocked the iron handcuffs. After that, Jeong Changin threw the towel that still smelled of Chloroform on the bedside table into the bathroom and closed the door. He thought that as soon as his wrists were freed, no matter how affected by Chloroform, this monstrous man would somehow miraculously stand up and run to the docks instantly.

But unlike his guess, when Riegrow regained his hands' freedom, he just lay there silently for a long time.

"....Are you OK?"

Jeong Changin brought him water. His eyes were fixed on the ceiling and seemed to still be vague and unstable.

"What a monster." Jeong Changin thought to himself. The towel soaked in Chloroform still smelled faintly in the air. If its smell is still strong on the towel and has not evaporated, it means that not much time has passed. Yet he regained consciousness so quickly.

"Because he doesn't look like a human." A long-ago voice automatically flashed through his head.

".....What time is it."

Riegrow spoke up. That was the first time Jeong Changin heard such a deep, cold voice. He silently looked at the clock and said a time frame.

Perhaps he can also estimate the time himself, and if it is not too late, he will probably chase my nephew right away. But when he heard about that the time was too late, Riegrow just remained silent.

With Jeong Changin's support, he lifted himself up to a sitting position. His vision is always very low when drinking water. After drinking a glass of water, he rested for a while and then leaned his head against the bed. He remained silent except for his very resilient eyes as if he wanted to resist the effects of the remaining medicine in pain.

Only then did Jeong Changin realize that this was not the right time to talk. He clicked his tongue and thought about his nephew for a moment. Somehow everything seems to go off track.

It is almost completely impossible for Riegrow to miss his target. But anyway, Jeong Taeui is not like a human. If he was determined to run away, it would be difficult to find him.

Riegrow, who had been silent until now as if he was half asleep, suddenly muttered.

"How the hell did you raise your nephew?"

Jeong Changin turned his eyes towards him, his voice was still very light and vague as if speaking in a trance.

He sat down on the chair, as if he had heard similar things in the past, Jeong Changin answered with a question.

"Sometimes he's very reckless, isn't he?"

The answer doesn't seem to answer Riegrow's question. That's right, reckless. Even if it was Jeong Changin himself, when he doesn't understand what will happen next, he won't risk anything. In fact, Jeong Taeui is basically the same.

Looking at his normal behavior, Taeui is not the type of person who will recklessly do anything without being sure.

Jeong Changin glanced at Riegrow, his facial muscles tensing. His cheeks were both red and swollen. He no longer needed to ask the reasons for these things. He must have been handcuffed and beaten very hard.

I hope my nephew can run far and away.

Riegrow lowered his still dazed eyes and looked down at his hands that seemed to still not have regained all of his strength. Then he began to move a finger or two and observed its movements as if he were discovering for himself what his hands looked like.

"He liked it. I don't know why. Even looking back at it like this."

Riegrow whispered as if he was just making small talk. This was the first time he had seen such a Riegrow. He looked like he was drunk out of his mind.

A gentle breath escaped. It was a long, low breath as if to release heavy things.

Riegrow half-closed his eyelids. He knew that once he closed his eyes, no matter how hard he tried, he would once again fall into unconsciousness.

Jeong Changin stood up from his chair knowing that this time he wouldn't wake up again. Maybe he won't even know what he said when he actually wakes up tomorrow morning. At the boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness, he was now quickly falling into a more unconscious state.

Jeong Changin took a step forward, he turned off the light and walked out the door. Right at that moment, when he was about to fall asleep, a deep, hoarse voice echoed in the air.

"He probably hates me."

Jeong Changin did not hear those words clearly. It was a vague voice. At first he thought he said that but he wasn't sure if he heard it right or not.

As expected, Riegrow fell unconscious again. Jeong Changin tilted his head in thought but then quietly closed the door and walked out.

After that day.

Since then, Riegrow has become increasingly ferocious and out of control. He was a cruel enough man to be called a madman from the first days he came here, but when he came to the Asia branch as an instructor, he was more lenient and controlled himself. Although the branch members continue to suffer serious and minor injuries in turns, no matter how seriously injured they are, they can still keep their lives.

When Riegrow transferred to the Asia branch, Kyle said very seriously: "UNHRDO must be crazy to let him be an instructor here." But then he was also surprised that no one actually died after a few months.

But

Riegrow seems to have returned to being the brutal killer he once was.

At first glance, it seems like nothing has changed. There's no difference in his facial expressions, his voice, the way he talks, and the way he solves certain problems. As usual, there was still that cold smile and that slow, but slightly twisted tone.

But it seems that the brutal monster has returned. Now there is no longer any member who can easily say anything in front of him like before.

Because two people died at his hands.

For three or four days, Eoryeong Detention Center witnessed an event that had never happened before: an instructor entered and then was quickly released even though it was only a very short period of time. .

He couldn't really say that he had changed, but anyone could easily sense it. Even Jeong Changin now seems to be walking on thin ice when facing this terrifying and unstable monster.

If it were before, he would still talk normally in front of Jeong Changin. But at the present time, if anyone bothers him even a little bit, he will immediately twist their neck and tear that person to pieces without even saying a word.

But he was still doing what he had to do, and he wouldn't use those gloves if there was no reason, unless someone was going over the line.

Jeong Changin knew he wouldn't lay a finger on him to a certain extent, so he was able to keep a reasonable distance from him. In fact, if it weren't for work, the connection between the two of them wouldn't exist, so it's easy to control it.

Same now. Riegrow went to a company in Hong Kong last weekend for a few days and also told his brother that there was a possibility of receiving contact sooner or later. Then today he received a short call from outside, and he went to Jeong Changin's room this late at night to talk about that call. After that, he was called out again by his superiors for a while, but when he returned, the atmosphere in the room had already become so strange.

Jeong Changin hung his uniform on a hanger then turned around and began to slowly examine Riegrow.

At that moment, he suddenly spoke.

"I just got a call from you and I'm still thinking about what to do. It was from an outside line and all the signals were cut off."

Jeong Changin raised his eyebrows slightly. His head flashed a few clues as to what caused his mood to turn so bad. A call from outside. There are only a few people who can call from outside at this time. Among them....

"...."

Jeong Changin passed by each person one by one, and his whole body seemed to tense. Because he didn't know exactly who the caller was. And why was Riegrow looking at him with such cold eyes?

"As expected, you also got involved, right?"

He said coldly. Jeong Changin was speechless for a moment then sighed.

"Okay. I helped him... If I hadn't, I would have lost a nephew too."

Riegrow looked at him without saying a word. It seemed like he was about to say something but in the end he just briefly asked what he wanted to know.

"Where is he?"
