Chapter 160. Purpose
“Im Hyeji. So it really is you?”
“Damn it, seriously. Nothing’s going right.”
The Raincoat Man and Hyeji seemed to know each other from before.
I stared at the blade pressed against Euna’s throat, trying to grasp the situation.
“Hehe. This situation is really something. And this Big Guy… No, what’s your name?”
I checked the men who had stopped behind me and were now approaching.
These were the same guys who had fought me in the Town Center and then fled.
They kept a slight distance, each taking their positions.
One of them pressed something against the back of my neck.
“Oh, right. I remember you got pissed off about me using informal speech. So, what’s your name?”
“Kim Taesik.”
“Taesik. Do you know that bitch… she’s a con artist?”
It was true that Hyeji and these guys knew each other, but it seemed they weren’t on the same side.
So, what exactly was going on now?
Had it truly become a three-way standoff by chance?
“That bitch Hyeji. Even before the world ended, her profession was con artist. She’d swindle money from older women under the guise of investments. You know, at neighborhood women’s associations or residents’ meetings. You get it? And then she got an Ability just like her personality. Ugh, she’s truly a repulsive woman.”
“Oppa, I’m sorry. But I really didn’t intend for it to go this far. You never gave me your heart… always doting on that girl Euna. So I had no choice.”
