The police station parking lot in the early dawn.
The sporadically parked cars seemed eerie.
One of the young men who had just left the police station and arrived at the parking lot opened his mouth wide. He discovered a topbrand sedan he had only seen in photos.
A particularly glossy black sedan. The man moved closer to its overwhelming presence.
“Wow, look at this! It’s a MercedesBenz S 800L! Shit! What kind of person has a car like this here! Wow, is this real life!”
“Nice to see. Is it very expensive? It’s slick.”
“Expensive, you fool! The SW class released in Korea was limited to 30 units to commemorate the release of the full change model! You don’t know anything. Wow, amazing… goosebumps.”
“Great. A knowitall like you hanging around the police station. Hey! Don’t touch it, you jerk! Do you want to go back in just two days after getting out?”
“I think someone is inside… right?”
A man trying to touch a car that could only be possessed in dreams. A friend who stops him in surprise. Right or wrong, they raised their voices against each other.
Inside the car with heavily tinted windows, Director Park, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, spoke to the back seat.
“Should I issue a warning?”
Kwon Jae Ha, who had been fixed on his tablet, moved his gaze outside the window. His expression was utterly indifferent.
“Leave them be.”
Director Park, the executive secretary, chuckled awkwardly.
“They’re just leaving. The car must look quite impressive to those young guys.”
Jae Ha, massaging his stiff neck, turned off his tablet.
“Do you have cigarettes, Director?”
“Do you want to smoke? I didn’t prepare any since I know you don’t usually smoke, but here, it’s not a good one though.”
Jae Ha, who had taken the pack of cigarettes Director Park handed him and stepped out of the car, immediately lit one.
A red spark emerged in the darkness, and his cheeks sunk in as he drew in a puff.
Kwon Jae Ha came all the way here just to see the presumably pale and upset face of the pervert.
Regardless, it was certain to be a dramatic and thrilling reunion, more so than anticipated or expected.
Releasing a long stream of smoke into the air, Jae Ha smirked.
Thinking of the private detective who had thoroughly and flawlessly carried out his task.
However.
He was the one who had originally assigned a person to Yoon Eun Jo.
Though it was true he had said to contact him immediately if anything happened.
Why was he feeling increasingly uncomfortable at the fact that some guy was sticking by her side 24/7, prying into every nook and cranny?
Ha! Crazy. What the hell was he thinking?
Swallowing his hollow laughter. Suddenly the driver’s side door opened.
“It’s Assemblyman Lee.”
Kwon Jae Ha, who had been blankly staring at Director Park’s phone, spoke with his usual indifferent voice.
“Please let him know that it’s already taken care of.”
Would the other party have heard? What would it matter if they did?
In the moment he was leisurely exhaling a puff of white smoke, he spotted a woman.
A slender silhouette appeared at the entrance of the police station.
The woman who was looking around for a moment suddenly froze, recognizing the unwelcome connection standing in the distance in the darkness.
Jae Ha, who felt her entire demeanor, quietly gritted his teeth.
Yoon Eun Jo.
She was now flitting about in the wind, running towards him.
Her frail body looked as if it would collapse at any moment.
.
.
.
Haah Haah.
Watching the woman drawing quick breaths. The man looked down at the real Yoon Eun Jo, who had finally revealed herself before his eyes, with a leisurely gaze.
“Haah… How, Haah…”
On the face of Kwon Jae Ha, who nodded slightly, there was neither joy nor surprise.
The cigarette held between the man’s fingers was being crushed under his shoe.
“Korea is still, indeed, a good place to live.”
“……”
She must have been out of her mind. Jae Ha gently closed his eyes towards the woman who was still catching her breath.
“It’s been a while.”
He whispered as if worried someone might overhear. His voice was lower and deeper than she remembered.
Eun Jo’s large, round eyes looked lost and bewildered. From the hair that had fallen on his forehead to his eyes, from his nose to his lips, and back to his eyes.
It was him.
Kwon Jae Ha.
What should she say? Which words should she begin with? Eun Jo, swallowing hard, blankly stared at the crushed cigarette butt on the ground.
“We are, in front of a police station……”
You’re really still the same Kwon Jae Ha.
“It’s been, a while. But how did you. Moreover, at this late hour……”
“Right. It is quite late.”
His voice was soft. His gaze was leisurely and drowsy.
Kwon Jae Ha, leaning against a highend sedan in a neat suit, cast a slanted glance at her.
In the face of a scene she never even imagined, Eun Jo was on the verge of bursting into laughter.
Such a place. Such a time. Such a…… miserable situation.
Blink. Blink. The broken streetlight jabbed at Eun Jo’s stunned mind.
