You’re talking about that here now?

For a moment, I was so startled that I almost said it out loud.

“…Seol Yu Hwa? What do you mean by that?”

Sung Ji Chan asked in a puzzled manner.

“Did you change your name?”

Is that how it works…? No, is that a normal reaction? When Sung Ji Chan says it, it’s a bit confusing.

Seol Yu Hwa smiled slyly.

“No, I’ve been Seol Yu Hwa since I was born. I’m Seol Yu Bin’s twin elder sister.”

At those words, Sung Ji Chan fell into serious thought for a moment before speaking.

“Uh… So what?”

It was an expression of being unimpressed, as if to say, “So what do you want me to do about it?”

‘…Hey, is that how you react at such an important moment?’

Are these two really the female and male leads? It seems like they won’t even develop a friendship, let alone love.

Suddenly, I had a bad feeling.

‘Could it be that the original story has already gone off track?’

Is it because I interfered and their relationship became weird? Please tell me that’s not the case.

I watched the conversation between Seol Yu Hwa and Sung Ji Chan with an anxious feeling.

Seol Yu Hwa said,

“Isn’t it surprising?”

“It’s surprising to find out she has a twin, but I don’t know why you’re suddenly saying that.”

At that, Seol Yu Hwa laughed.

“The reason I’m revealing my identity now is because it’s related to you as well.”

“Me?”

“Yes.”

Seol Yu Hwa nodded.

“I’m the one who has been hunting down those delinquent bastards.”

…You’re really going to say it all.

It was truly an unexpected development.

Sung Ji Chan must have also not expected it, as he rolled his eyes in bewilderment.

“Uh, so… You’re saying it’s because of you that the guys from Hae Sung High School went wild?”

Seol Yu Hwa nodded.

“If it’s because of the delinquent hunter like you said, then I guess so.”

Sung Ji Chan fell silent for a moment.

“Then could it be… You’re the world’s rank 0?”

I couldn’t believe those words came out of his mouth. It felt strange.

“Heh… So you knew?”

Sparks flew between Seol Yu Hwa and Sung Ji Chan.

The meeting of the Ice Boy and the world’s rank 0… It’s truly amazing. I was at a loss for words.

Sung Ji Chan laughed.

“I see. So the rumors weren’t just rumors after all…”

I can’t handle these two being together.

I discreetly stepped back.

“What rumors?”

“There’s a rumor going around that the world’s rank 0 is at our school. And that the person has been hunting down delinquents.”

“Hmm.”

Seol Yu Hwa had an intrigued expression.

“The rumors are quite accurate.”

I’m telling you.

I’m seriously suspecting there’s someone among Seol Yu Hwa’s subordinates who is talking. Otherwise, there’s no way the rumors would spread like this.

Sung Ji Chan fell into thought for a moment.

“Then the Seol Yu Bin I’ve seen recently at school was actually you all along?”

“That’s right.”

“Why are you pretending to be Seol Yu Bin?”

At that question, Seol Yu Hwa gave a bitter smile.

“…It’s a long story. Do you want to hear it?”

It probably won’t be that long.

Seol Yu Bin ran away after being dumped by Ji Seung Hyun, and Seol Yu Hwa thought Seol Yu Bin ran away because she was being bullied, so she returned to Korea to take revenge. That’s about it, right?

While I was thinking that in my head, Seol Yu Hwa gestured to me with her chin.

“You explain it.”

“Huh?”

I was taken aback for a moment, but I recited to Sung Ji Chan exactly what I had just thought.

“…That’s what happened.”

After hearing my words, Sung Ji Chan nodded as if he understood.

“Anyway, that’s enough about that.”

Seol Yu Hwa glanced over Sung Ji Chan and said,

“Your physical condition must be at its limit now, right?”

Is it? He looks fine to me.

In my opinion, Sung Ji Chan looked like he had a cold, but not to the point of collapsing. However, Sung Ji Chan readily agreed.

“It is a bit tough.”

“Yeah, I see.”

It seems like there’s something that only fighters can sense about each other.

Seol Yu Hwa said,

“Get some rest for now. We’ll talk about the details later.”

So we left Sung Ji Chan to sleep and went outside.

I cautiously opened my mouth after watching for the right timing.

“Um, can I ask you something?”

“Go ahead.”

“Why did you bring him here?”

“What do you mean?”

I added an explanation as if making an excuse.

“I mean, you knew his face, but you two are practically strangers. You could have just left him alone, but you purposely brought him back. Is there a reason?”

Like love or something like that.

At my words, Seol Yu Hwa pondered for a moment.

“Just…”

Just what?

“He looked like a drenched puppy.”

Usually, people would say a puppy, not a dog…

I was momentarily at a loss for words at Seol Yu Hwa’s unconventional choice of words.

“I had a dog when I was young. He reminded me of that child… So I couldn’t just ignore him and walk away.”

Anyway, it seemed like she brought him because he looked pitiful.

‘Yeah, he did look a bit pathetic.’

Well, love can start from sympathy, right?

In any case, it seems like this event was quite successful in bringing the female and male leads together.

…I just want to believe that.

‘But can I go home now?’

You called me here to take care of Sung Ji Chan, right? Now that it’s come to this, haven’t I completed my mission?

‘I’ll wait for a chance and run away.’

I slyly gathered my things.

As I was watching for the right timing to slip away, Seol Yu Hwa abruptly spoke.

“Is there a place around here where the guys from Hae Sung High School would gather?”

I was taken aback.

“Uh… Why are you suddenly asking that?”

Then Seol Yu Hwa laughed.

“Since an innocent person got hurt because of me, I should take responsibility.”

Well, if I were to interpret those words… It seems like she’s saying that she’ll take responsibility because Sung Ji Chan ended up like this due to her ‘delinquent hunting.’

‘There’s no need to take responsibility for that.’

First of all, Sung Ji Chan is not innocent. He already had a bad relationship with Hae Sung High School.

And if you’re going to take responsibility, can’t you do it in a different way?

‘Asking me where the Hae Sung High School guys are means she’s going to beat them up, right?’

Isn’t that just stirring up the hornet’s nest instead of helping?

“Do you really have to go meet them right now?”

I spoke while watching Seol Yu Hwa’s expression. Seol Yu Hwa’s eyes gleamed fiercely.

“Why, is there a problem?”

There’s no problem, but…

I backed down.

‘Oh, whatever. Let it be.’

I let out a sigh and spoke.

“If it’s Hae Sung High School, they’re probably gathered at that abandoned building.”

“Abandoned building?”

Seol Yu Hwa slightly furrowed her brows.

“Where is that?”

I kindly explained the location of the abandoned building, even drawing a rough map on paper. Seol Yu Hwa listened to my explanation with a serious face, nodding her head.

“…So if you turn here from that alley, you’ll see the abandoned building. Got it?”

Finally, I finished my explanation. I looked at Seol Yu Hwa with a proud smile. Then Seol Yu Hwa confidently replied,

“I don’t get it.”

“Yeah, you don’t get it… Huh?”

I sensed that things were going wrong.

“…You don’t get it?”

“Yeah, I’m not familiar with the geography of this neighborhood yet.”

Seol Yu Hwa spoke nonchalantly.

“You’ll have to help me out a bit.”

What?

Dumbfounded, I gaped at Seol Yu Hwa, who gestured to me.

“Let’s go.”

Go? Where? Don’t tell me, to the abandoned building?

That’s right. I’ve been designated as Seol Yu Hwa’s human navigation system!

I hesitantly opened my mouth.

“Uh… The intention is good, but… wouldn’t it be better not to go?”

“Why?”

“Well… Revenge breeds revenge… If you beat them up this time, they might harass Sung Ji Chan even more later…”

Seol Yu Hwa made a serious expression as if in deep thought for a moment.

“So you’re saying you’re afraid Hae Sung High School will retaliate?”

I nodded vigorously. Seol Yu Hwa laughed.

“It’s fine. I’ll just crush them so they won’t even think of doing that.”

That’s not what I meant!

It was a mistake for a commoner to try to understand the thought process of the world’s rank 0. Seol Yu Hwa said,

“And anyway, I feel bad about what’s happened so far, so I want to give that child a gift as an apology.”

In the end, it means she’s going to crush Hae Sung High School.

You don’t feel sorry for me, only for Sung Ji Chan!

If you’re going to go, go by yourself. Why are you taking me with you?

But I’m a weak and powerless citizen. I don’t even dream of rebelling.

“What are you doing, not coming?”

“Yes… I’m coming…”

‘This can’t be happening!’

But no one heard my inner scream.

Seol Yu Hwa changed clothes before leaving.

‘It’s the outfit I saw last time.’

All black from head to toe.

With a hat and a black mask on top of that. It looks like she’s dressed as a thief.

‘Is this what she wears when she goes delinquent hunting?’

She must have deliberately chosen a color that doesn’t stand out.

‘You really won’t be seen in the dark.’

As I was blankly staring at Seol Yu Hwa, something was suddenly pushed in front of me.

“Huh?”

“Wear it.”

What Seol Yu Hwa handed me was the exact same outfit she was wearing.

…Why are you giving this to me?

I looked at Seol Yu Hwa with eyes full of questions. Instead of an explanation, Seol Yu Hwa pointed to the clothes again with her chin.

‘If she tells me to wear it, I have to wear it.’

I hurriedly took the clothes and headed to the bathroom.

A moment later.

I finished changing and came out.

Although I’m taller than Seol Yu Hwa, the difference isn’t big, so the clothes fit without any discomfort.

“Put this on too.”

Seol Yu Hwa handed me a black baseball cap identical to the one she was wearing.

“And this too.”

This time, she gave me a black mask.

After doing everything as told, I ended up looking exactly the same as Seol Yu Hwa from head to toe.

…Twins?

“This way, we won’t stand out.”

In other words, this was Seol Yu Hwa’s activity outfit.

‘Is this… me?’

Looking in the mirror, Seol Yu Hwa and I looked so similar that we were almost indistinguishable.

‘Wait, isn’t this more dangerous?’

We won’t stand out, but what if someone mistakes me for Seol Yu Hwa?

“Alright, let’s go.”

Confirming that I had changed clothes, Seol Yu Hwa went out without hesitation.

‘Just let me change back!’

I followed Seol Yu Hwa, crying inside.
