“Then I will call you again.”

“see you later.”

After successfully negotiating with the Hundred Days Guild.

When I returned home after receiving Baek Yu-jin’s see-off, I immediately contacted Han-na Bang and said that we should have dinner together.

By the way.

[Seowon said that a close older sister came and came in the evening! ]

At the same time, Yoon In-kyung came to see the news that Jin Seo-won had vacated the house.

‘Then is it only Hannah?’

I have something to say anyway, it would be okay to have dinner with Hanna Bang.

[Then I’ll go home in the evening. ]

So, after making an appointment for dinner, I came home, took a quick shower and checked the time.

About 2 hours until dinner.

It’s a good time to do a little work with the interlude.

“Let’s see… .”

I immediately sat down in front of the computer and connected to a large community site.

[ Treasure Hunt Bulletin Board ]

It sounds like a childish name, but the inside is full of all kinds of items and information about the dungeon in the gate.

‘Is there any new information? ‘

The treasure hunt bulletin board is a community that appears in the original novel ‘The Strongest Gosu’.

Seol Joo-hee in the novel mainly got information about rare items and gates here.

I was able to preempt information about various items and hidden places faster than anyone else, remembering that point well.

Dripping- Drubling-

At that time, I was going through the articles about the information, speculation, and conspiracy theories that came up.

[ Found something strange at the 992 gate of Jirisan ] Hits : 0

“Well?”

One of the posts I just posted caught my attention.

‘Mt. Jirisan?’

Without thinking, I clicked on the post and checked the contents… .

[ Someone I know said that he was having a heart attack over there, and he stopped by the waterfall to wash herbs and accidentally found a strange structure behind the waterfall. You said it looked like a drawing board? ]

Contrary to the meaningful title, common content such as ‘someone saw it by chance’ was written on it.

‘If it’s Simmani, he’s probably a herbalist… .’

As a matter of course, Simmani exists in this world as well.

Instead, it is not a normal mountain, but people who gather various medicinal materials while walking inside the gate.

So, it is quite often the case that Simmani finds information that has not been found… .

Since the gate itself is connected to the ‘other world’, in most cases, traces of useless civilization are found.

However.

‘Behind the waterfall… .’

In the case of such a hidden structure, the batting average is quite high.

“Uh… .”

I leaned back in my chair and looked back at my memories.

According to the author who wrote the original novel, most of the rare items that exist in the worldview were mentioned or appeared in the original novel.

In other words, the information on the Jirisan Gate posted this time is likely not to be very useful.

‘This is a pass.’

That’s how you filter out the information on the Jirisan Gate.

I moved the internet page to look through the other articles.

click-

By the way… .

“… … ?”

For some reason, I couldn’t see the article I was reading a while ago.

‘Did you just erase it?’

I don’t care much for that fact and moved the mouse,

After thinking a little more about the future plans, I went down to the dormitory of the team Seoul City Hall.

*

“I will enjoy this food!”

“Eat a lot.”

Dinner with Hanna Bang.

It was a simple composition of ham fried rice and kimchi stew, but it was enough for a simple dinner.

“right. How was your trip?”

Hanna Bang naturally asked about travel topics while moving the spoon.

I told her that I was going away for a trip, but I didn’t reveal that the person was Arin Lim, so I guess I need to be a little careful.

“It was fun. I see the sea.”

“Wow… . Where have you been?”

“This time, we mostly just played in the dorm.”

I didn’t actually leave the dorm after seeing the sea, so it’s definitely not a lie.

“I’m so jealous… . Actually, I’ve only been to Jeju Island once so far… .”

“really? When did you go?”

“I went on a middle school field trip!”

“If it was a school trip… , I must not have enjoyed it properly.”

“So… ! I just keep riding the bus… .”

“Don’t you usually go to college with your friends?”

“ah. I’ve had pajama parties, but I’ve never been on a trip for a few days. It costs a lot of money… .”

While we were chatting like that, we were in the middle of eating.

‘ah. right.’

I suddenly remembered the ‘You did a great job’ stamp that she had been collecting one by one, and I quietly spoke out.

“I can use it later and go on a trip.”

“yes? What is it?”

“Wish stamp. You’ve already collected three.”

“Yeah, I can go on a trip with it… ?!”

Hanna is surprised as if she didn’t think of it at all.

I smiled involuntarily at her reaction and added a word.

“If a wish has restrictions, is it a wish?”

OK.

gulp-

With a slightly nervous face, Hanna Bang leaned her body toward me, and carefully posed a question with a very wretched look.

“Hey, are you going with me?”

It was a question about participation.

“Aren’t you going?”

“Oh, no! He doesn’t mean that… . that… . You can go together… , I wonder if it’s okay… .”

She glances at me constantly, looking into my eyes.

It seems like he’s worried about my busy body.

‘After all, I’m the only one who thinks of me.’

I said it was a trip, but after the season is over, I plan to go to a workshop where everyone participates.

It’s not like I’m taking a vacation, it’s because I’m going for a formal job, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.

“I can’t go very long anyway… . From 3 days 2 nights to 4 days 3 nights? That’s okay.”

“… 4 days 3 nights… !”

Hanna’s eyes gleamed with subtle anticipation,

I quietly moved the spoon, thinking that it would have been a good motivator for her.

“Whoa… . I really enjoyed the meal!”

So after eating.

“I’ll do the dishes!”

“okay? Thank you for doing it.”

“Oh! I have ice cream in the refrigerator, would you like some?”

“ice cream… ? What, zero-calorie ice cream or something?”

“… … maybe?”

“you… .”

“Seo, Seo-won bought it… !”

We put off washing the dishes a bit and sat side by side on the sofa eating ice cream for dessert.

Then then.

beep- beep- beep- beep-

As if Jin Seo-won had returned from going out, suddenly the sound of pressing the password resounded.

“Looks like a vow has come.”

“Are you here pretty early? Did you eat dinner… ?”

burst-

“… I’m home.”

Jin Seo-won’s voice is heard.

Hanna Bang and I headed to the front door to meet her.

“Have you been well?”

“… … !”

Jinseowon, who was taking off her shoes just in time and stepping on the front door, found me and opened her eyes wide… .

blame-

He ran to me in an instant, and hugged me tightly.

“?!”

“… You have come.”

Bang Han-na, surprised, and Jin Seo-won, casually greeting each other.

‘… what, what… ?’

I was taken aback by her sudden action, and I froze.

*

After Do Ji-hyuk returns.

Only the two of us remain.

“Seowon-ah.”

“… yes?”

“Why did you do that earlier?”

“… what?”

Hanna Bang sat down Jinseowon, who came out after washing, and talked seriously.

“I hugged the producer as soon as I saw him. Why are you like that all of a sudden?”

Do Ji-hyuk, the party involved, thought it was because it was nice to meet him after a long time, so he didn’t take it seriously.

Among close brothers and sisters, she was not good at expressing herself, so I thought it could be enough.

However.

Hanna Hannah could not think like that.

“Tell me honestly.”

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won pondered the answer to Han-na’s serious expression on her face.

And then… .

After a short deliberation, he calmly confessed his feelings.

“… I like it.”

“Seo Won-ah. What does that good mean by any chance? Is it just good to see you after a long time? if not… .”

“… It was nice to see you after a long time.”

“okay… ?”

In fact, for Jin Seo-won, ‘good’ is the same expression as ‘I love you’, limited to Do Ji-hyuk, which is close to praise.

However… .

Hanna Bang, who had no way of knowing that fact, simply thought that she must have made a mistake again, and gently pointed it out.

“Seo Won-ah. You shouldn’t hug people like that.”

“… why?”

“Excuse me. We’re not even dating… , no. You can do that even if you’re not in a relationship, but that’s only for people close to you like me, and it’s rude to do that to the producer.”

“… But… .”

Jin Seo-won, who was trying to argue with Bang Han-na, saying that the situation is different this time, stopped for a moment.

It’s only the two of them secret that they got a confession from Do Ji-hyuk.

No matter how good Hanna Bang is, she couldn’t break the ‘promise’ she made with Jihyuk Do.

“… sorry.”

Soon after, she evaded the situation by pretending to admit her mistake.

Bang Han-na let out a short sigh as if she couldn’t help it, then relaxed her expression and patted her.

“What… . It can happen, so don’t be too discouraged. Understand?’

“… yes.”

The misunderstanding between the two is growing out of control.

It couldn’t inflate, but it has grown to the point where it fills my heart… .

Both of them had so much faith that there was no doubt that they had misunderstood.
