Chapter 303. Reunion
There are always people who speak politely and respectfully.
Naturally, one develops a favorable impression of such individuals.
It was true in the past, and it remains true now.
However, a favorable impression and trust are entirely separate matters.
That’s because some people hide dark intentions beneath their courteous exteriors.
Manager Lee from Hana Trade was one such person, and Bang Yijung, whom I met in Guri, belonged to the same category.
For that very reason, I found myself heading towards Namsan at this late hour.
‘How should I approach them?’
I needed to understand the Namsan Group’s objective.
I had to confirm if they were connected to Seonyoung’s Group.
Even if they weren’t, they could still pose a threat to us.
Given how easily they were willing to give up a week’s worth of Food Supplies, their scale must be quite large.
A large number of people implies diverse Abilities, and if so, there’s a high probability that some of them possess tracking-related abilities.
Therefore, it was also necessary to grasp the Namsan Group’s disposition.
Organizing the information I needed to gather, I reached the edge of the residential area.
Now, crossing the narrow 2-lane road would lead directly into the Namsan forest.
‘I can’t just go up and ask them.’
I crossed the road and entered the mountain path.
Among them, there was someone with an Ability to detect approaching individuals.
I remembered the cluster of light that appeared around me when I encountered them in the deep in the mountains that evening.
