Swoosh, the finger swiping the screen stopped.
The frequent appearances of gates in the Gyeongnam area recently seemed to be real.
Eunha looked out the window, lifting her head.
‘I installed a location tracking app on my younger sibling’s phone without thinking much about it, and the last place it was detected was here, near Busan Jagalchi Market.’
The outside scenery was passing by at a speed too fast to be caught by the eye.
“Our train will soon be arriving at Daejeon Station. Thank you, passengers, for using KTX today. We will soon be arriving at Daejeon Station──.”
An announcement with cheerful BGM played. Halfway there if it’s Daejeon? Eunha returned her gaze to her mobile phone after checking the electronic board.
[Search] ▶ Busan Station to Jagalchi MarketJehwi said in the last message that she had arrived at Jagalchi Market. If something happened, it would surely be there.
‘……Is there really a need to do this?’
Eunha was staring blankly at the train ticket on her lap.
By now, the TV station would be in the midst of recording. The manager not being in contact would mean the same for them, so soon Silvermoon and Siwoo’s side would be contacted too.
That meant a tremendous happening was expected.
But Eunha had booked a train ticket to Busan, even at the cost of skipping the recording.
[Manager Park] [1:02 PM] DoooaHis last message wouldn’t leave her mind. She had a bad feeling. Eunha’s such premonitions were always spot on.
Of course, Jehwi was an adult fully capable of taking care of herself.
But age was not valid inside the gate.
If, by some mad impulse, she had jumped into the gate chasing her younger sibling, there would be no guarantee of Jehwi’s safety as a noncombatant, especially if it was an unknown gate.
‘Nothing should happen.’
She didn’t want to see anyone else around her get destroyed by a gate or a monster.
That was why. With a heavy heart, she chose the KTX, said to be faster than Saemaulho.
The oneway fare from Seoul to Busan was a whopping 108,900 won. Round trip, it would exceed 200,000 won.
It was filthy expensive for a train, not an airplane. It even made the usually composed Eunha hesitate.
But surely, with this speed, it wouldn’t even take 3 hours to Busan. There might be a reason for being expensive.
“Excuse me.”
While she was busy gathering information about Busan, an unfamiliar voice came from the aisle.
Someone was pointing at Eunha’s parasol.
“Here, it’s my seat.”
It seemed to be a passenger who had just boarded at Daejeon Station.
With a shoulderlength brown bob and a pink baseball cap, she looked to be about high school age. Her teddy bearprinted flight jacket was out of season.
Eunha moved the black parasol from the next seat and put it down by her feet.
“Thank you.”
Thump.
The girl sat down and unzipped her flight jacket with a rustle. It must have been hot.
“Huh. Sister, are you a concept hunter by any chance?”
Eunha, who couldn’t keep her eyes on her mobile phone, looked up quickly.
Bright pink eyes like azaleas were staring intently at Eunha, or more precisely, the dress Eunha was wearing.
“……Not exactly that, no.”
Eunha gave a short answer and returned her gaze to her mobile phone. But surprisingly, the conversation that seemed to be cut off continued quite naturally.
“Huh? Really?”
The girl’s eyes widened. Wearing a dress and carrying a black parasol but not being a concept hunter? What did that mean?
“Really not a concept hunter?”
“……That’s what’s known anyway.”
“Ah, I see? I’ve only seen concept hunters on TV. Seeing one in person is fascinating.”
The girl’s eyes sparkled with curiosity as she met a concept hunter in person. There had always been something she wanted to ask if she ever got the chance.
“How is it? Is the moneymaking good?”
“…….”
Swiftly, Eunha looked up from her mobile phone and stared at the girl.
Even Eunha, who was ignorant of modern common sense, knew that it was rude to ask about earnings to someone she had just met.
However.
“Um, is it a corporate secret? Can’t you tell me just a little bit? I’ll give you this.”
The girl rustled around in her pocket and pulled out two candies. One was red, and one was yellow.
With a serious face, the girl alternated between the two candies before suddenly offering the yellow one.
“Okay. I’ll specially give you my favorite lemon flavor.”
“…….”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
