003. find evidence.

* * *

After disconnecting the voice code, I sat there for a while and stared at the monitor screen.

Taemin Han…

I never thought I would be in the same group as Taemin oppa out of that many and many students.

Even the real sky is harsh.

is not it. Was the professor harsh?

I couldn’t help but feel depressed at the thought of seeing Taemin oppa’s face already by the end of the semester.

“ha…”

I pushed the chair all the way back and looked up at the ceiling.

“Calm down. Kim Do-ah.”

It’s already been several months, but do you still use your heart?

The emotions that had been lingering for a long time could not be washed away even with a dry wash with both hands together.

there was such a time

There was a time when I thought that if I could have a dream-like relationship with someone like Taemin oppa, I would be able to stop broadcasting.

The time when I couldn’t sleep, thinking how nice it would be if we could fall in love without being envious while going to and from campus together.

But Taemin oppa is a wall to me.

It was a wall, not a door.

When I realized that the person I was knocking on was not a door, but a wall, my expectations shattered so badly.

The shards that flowed down stuck in my chest and left a terrible scar.

…it was bittersweet.

no Rather, it might be a good thing.

Thanks to that, I was able to clenched my teeth and become more immersed in the show.

In the end, I thought that the only ones who liked me in my room were the viewers in my room.

Confirming once again that the voice chord was broken, I started singing the song I had just practiced.

“The warm sunshine. That dazzling smile.”

It was a lack of skill.

Of course, if you think it’s a cover song for the general public, it’s not a level you can’t listen to, but it’s true that it’s inferior compared to other candidates for the project I’m preparing.

How dumbfounded I was when I heard that an actual musical actor-turned-candidate participated in the audition.

Why are real singers coming to the virtual idol open recruitment?

But that doesn’t mean that it’s an industry that only competes with songs.

As it is a virtual idol, the concept and character were important, and it was written in the recruitment guideline that broadcasting sense was also an important factor to be considered.

“can do. can do.”

Shaking my head to get rid of my thoughts about Taemin oppa, I started to spur on singing for the final audition again.

Doa Kim… Doa Kim… Doa Kim…

I scrolled down my cell phone to find the message window that I had last contacted with Doa, and found a conversation window below that that was about to be discarded.

“The last conversation…”

As soon as I saw it, I couldn’t help but feel like a cold sweat was running down my forehead.

no. Why am I being so nonchalant?

[brother. Do you have time tomorrow?]

[no.]

[Um… uh… I’m doing this because of the class materials from the other day.]

[ah. Then 3:00 a-]

Actually, it wasn’t that different from when I was just talking with my friends, but thinking of talking to Luca made me feel very rude.

It wasn’t really a matter of gender.

It’s just that my contact style is that dry.

Come to think of it, I think we did that and met at 3:00 and dumped Doa…

I couldn’t bear to look at my phone screen anymore.

To a kid who might be Luca-sama… such atrocities…

Should I just commit suicide?

But at the time I didn’t know.

I thought it was a completely different situation from now.

From my experience so far, when I set aside a little time to see my face or have a private meeting, girls always wanted to cross the line and have a more authentic relationship with me.

And to be honest, I thought this would not be much different from Doa.

Because Doa also said similarly that she wants to be in a serious relationship with me.

It wasn’t that there was a problem with my course of action and that it needed to be corrected, but the important thing was that I… with my own hands… Luca…

“I’m sick…”

I felt like all the negative emotions were eating me up.

The feeling of all the melancholy in the world rushing in like a wave and sweeping me away.

There is only one prayer I can do now.

“Yes… Doa may not be Luca…”

It could be that I just made a mistake on my own and turned Doa into Luka by turning my delusions into my brain.

Yes… That’s right… If it’s not Doa and Luca, then everything will be back to normal…

In order to deny reality, I had to find out why Luca wasn’t Doa.

And finding the evidence wasn’t that difficult.

* * *

One hour before class starts.

While watching Luca’s broadcast, I put together all the information about Luca that I had recorded.

Luca’s favorite snack.

A vegetable that Luca hates.

Lucca’s favorite flavor of ice cream from the famous chain.

Luca’s favorite music these days.

Luca usually spends a lot of time having daily conversations before going into games or other full-fledged content, so it was not difficult to know this much.

Right on the air the day before yesterday, Luca talked about the drama he most recently enjoyed watching.

[Did you see that? That prosecutor drama that is popular these days.]

[I saw it because it was so much fun that I didn’t notice the time passing?]

[This is only up to episode 7, so hurry up and go straight!]

I decided that if it was about this drama, I could naturally induce a conversation without raising a lot of suspicion, so I stayed up all night watching the latest episode of the drama.

Now, if you answer that you haven’t seen this or don’t know at all, then Doa is not Luca.

Originally Mr. Han, I always had my attendance number at the back, so if I entered the classroom a little late, it would not be today.

“What. Why are you late?”

Club jukdol Yoon-je, who was sitting in the back, greeted me in amazement.

“What. Hey.”

“no. It comes in when I call your name like a knife to meet you.”

“It’s just that the bus came a little early today.”

It was the first offline class after Voice Code.

Since we had to sit in groups, I turned my back to Yoon-jae and turned my head around to find Do-a…

“Han Taemin!”

Joon-seok, the team leader, waved at me.

“uh. Goes.”

The members of the group are sitting in a row in the order of Minji, Junseok, and Doa.

Naturally, the seat next to Doa, who was sitting at the farthest side, was taken by me.

Even though I arrived, Doa didn’t look at me.

Dark brown hair came down like a curtain, obscuring her expression.

“brother! hello~”

When Minji said hello, Doa looked at me slightly.

But no matter how you look at it…

Could he be Luca…?

The temperature difference between Iljin Luca, who is in charge of all the jerks I met on the air, and Doa, whom I am seeing right now, was too great.

In my memory, Doah was never a cheerful child.

Of course, I’d never talked to her that much or heard of her, but at least based on what I’d seen, she was a very passive person.

“…hello.”

No matter who sees it, I notice that it is uncomfortable to talk to me.

It was a perfectly normal reaction.

Even if it’s me, I think it’ll be difficult to talk hahahaha with a girl who dumped me.

First of all, I have to lead the conversation in the direction I want before the class starts…

Jun-seok and Min-ji are talking about something together.

Doa is just looking down at her desk.

If I were to talk to her, I would have a one-on-one conversation with Doa, but it wasn’t easy.

How many times have I deliberately spoken to a woman first in the first place?

“…do it.”

Still, you can’t just shut up and say nothing.

I called her name in as gentle a tone as I could.

“yes?”

When I called her name, Doa looked at me somewhat surprised.

“That… what is that… you know that…”

Why can’t I think of it all of a sudden? this.

Obviously, the first plan was to bring up the story of the drama, but a very strange question came out of my mouth.

“Do you like banana milk?”

“yes?”

“Uh… that… you have banana milk. That fat thing.”

After spitting out, I wanted to talk about the prosecutor’s drama, but well, this also became part of the investigation.

That’s because banana milk was the kind of milk that Luca started drinking every time he started broadcasting.

“Ah yes. What… I like it.”

“Low fat?”

What Luca always emphasizes is ‘low fat’.

Is it refreshing to drink low fat?

To be honest, I just wondered if that was it, but it seemed like a big difference to Luca.

“I only drink low-fat.”

Doa was answering my questions diligently, but on her face, she had an expression as if asking a question, ‘Why are you curious about that?’

Doa tilted her head when I did not show any reaction after hearing the answer.

Since I was not around, I suffered from the obsession that I had to continue the conversation, and I ended up spitting out nonsense again.

“I’ve been thinking about it, but I wonder if eating a low-fat diet will make you lose weight? It really doesn’t seem to work very well?”

Minji, who had been quietly listening to our conversation, said a word.

“brother. Oh, I’m on a diet these days, so I’m eating that.”

…Lukatan didn’t explain that far.
