The news that the filming was canceled quickly reached the CEO’s ear. Su-Gyeom got a call right away through Min-Seung. It was late at night, so he said to rest today and talk tomorrow.

Thanks to the postponement of the discussion until tomorrow, U-PITE could return to their accommodation immediately. It was strangely quiet in the car heading to the accommodation. Su-Gyeom, who is at the center of it, thought that silence was unbearable, but on the other hand, it was better to be quiet now.

He doesn’t know if it’s because of the unusual situation, but he doesn’t think they would also believe his story.

Su-Gyeom entered the accommodation, looking around.

He walks with the members but is behind them, just following along.

Su-Gyeom himself was the reason why this shooting was overturned. Moreover, there was a phenomenon that no one could understand with the general common sense of “regression.”

Su-Gyeom was a lot involved in the current situation, but that didn’t mean that Su-Gyeom committed a crime. Nevertheless, Su-Gyeom hid his existence as much as possible by walking stealthily. That doesn’t mean his existence will disappear.

Sure enough, Su-Gyeom, heading to the room with a thief’s step, stopped when someone grabbed his arm.

“What’s wrong?”

“Hyung, hold on a second.”

It was none other than Yoo-chan who caught Su-Gyeom. Yoo-chan looked as stiff as he could. Su-Gyeom didn’t want to talk to him. Normally, he would have enjoyed talking with Yoo-chan, but not now.

Even before the conversation, the discomfort flared up. His chest is suffocating.

“Well, I’m tired…….”

It was the best refusal Su-Gyeom could make. He wanted Yoo-chan to step down at this point. Unfortunately, Yoo-Chan seemed to have no intention of doing so.

“Just a moment.”

“I’m really tired…….”

“It won’t take long.”

Although he timidly expressed his rejection once more, Su-Gyeom’s words did not work. In the end, Su-Gyeom was led to the veranda.

When he opened the door, Su-Gyeom felt the unique coldness of the veranda. Su-Gyeom trembled with chills. When Yoo-Chan glanced at Su-Gyeom, he took off his coat.

“No, it’s all right.”

“It’s cold. Wear it.”

“You’re cold, too.”

“I’m fine.”

“……thank you.”

Su-Gyeom could no longer refuse Yoo-Chan’s words and put on the coat he handed over. Perhaps because Yoo-Chan’s body temperature remained, he felt like he was hugging him.

“Hyung, do you know?”

“What?”

“What was that earlier?”

“What? What?”

Su-Gyeom was embarrassed by the sudden question and stuttered. Yoo-Chan asked again as if he didn’t know anything, but Su-Gyeom knew what he was talking about.

“What the shaman said. It was a word I couldn’t understand, but I thought you understood it.”

Su-Gyeom seemed to be suffocating at Yoo-chan’s words. Bi-Yeon’s words crossed his mind.

‘This person is different from you.’

‘Different. He’s alive now. I don’t know why. But it’s not like you guys are dead forever. So you shouldn’t touch this guy.’

“I don’t remember what he said…….”

Su-Gyeom decided to dodge answering. He didn’t want to lie to Yoo-Chan, but I couldn’t tell him everything. It wasn’t like there was a reason to do that. In the end, Su-Gyeom pretended not to know anything.

“He said, this person is different from you. He’s alive now.”

“…….”

“What does “now” mean?”

Yoo-Chan penetrated the point sharply. That was the part that Su-Gyeom was also most poked by among the words that Bi-Yeon said. That he is alive now. In the past, he died, but now he is alive.

“Well, I don’t know.”

Su-Gyeom was not good at lying. Su-Gyeom himself knew this fact. Therefore, he also knew that Yoo-Chan would not believe what he was saying.

However, he lied even though he knew it clearly because he couldn’t tell the truth.

“Don’t lie. Tell me the truth.”

“……that is…….”

As expected, Yoo-Chan found out that Su-Gyeom was lying without difficulty. Thanks to this, Su-Gyeom had no choice but to stutter.

He thought of several answers in his head, but nothing made sense. It was not enough to fool Yoo Chan, who was quick-witted.

“Why should I tell you the truth?”

In the end, Su-Gyeom chose to ask back and avoid answering.

Come to think of it. It was not necessary to tell Yoo-Chan everything as it was. When Su-Gyeom realized this, he gained confidence.

He is sorry for Yoo-Chan but doesn’t want to say anything. If it doesn’t hurt the team, it doesn’t hurt him.

“Hyung.”

” I don’t want to talk. So I don’t want you to ask.”

Although he stuttered a little, Su-Gyeom, who conveyed what he wanted to say, turned.

“I’m cold, so I’ll go in first. Thank you for lending me your clothes.”

Su-Gyeom, who couldn’t bear to see Yoo-chan’s eyes, returned his coat to him and hurried to the room. Yoo-Chan standing in the cold, caught his eyes, and Su-Gyeom’s conscience was stabbed, but he couldn’t go back now.

It was only then that he could get rid of his frightened heart.

However, another ambush was waiting in the room.

“Hyung.”

“Han-Sol.”

Han-Sol stood as if he had been waiting for Su-Gyeom. It was bound to be embarrassing for Su-Gyeom, who barely ran away from Yoo-Chan. Su-Gyeom took a couple of steps back in embarrassment.

“Hyung, talk to me.”

“Talk? I’m tired…….”

At Han-Sol’s words, Su-Gyeom repeated the same thing he said to Yoo-Chan. Although it didn’t work for Yoo-Chan, he hoped it would work for Han-Sol.

Of course, Su-Fyeom’s wish did not come true.

“Just a moment.”

“Uh-Uh-”

Su-Gyeom could no longer refuse because he was determined. Instead, if Han-Sol tries to approach the truth more than necessary, like Yoo-Chan earlier, he vowed to cut it off as he did to Yoo-Chan.

“I was surprised to see a cat outside earlier. But I think you saw something else. Isn’t that right?”

“Uh……that…….”

“That’s probably why you screamed like that. It was the same reaction when you heard something weird in the shoot.”

“Uh, well… I saw something.”

At Han-Sol’s words, which he asked as if he was questioning, Su-Gyeom replied bluntly.

There was no need to lie that he saw a ghost. Anyone who saw him could guess it.

“That’s not what I want to ask. I don’t understand what the shaman said when he came.”

“…….”

However, Han-Sol’s question did not end simply by seeing a ghost. Su-Gyeom bit his lip, not knowing how to respond.

“What happened to Hyung?”

“What’s the matter?”

“There was something. Isn’t that what the shaman said? He’s alive now. Which means he wasn’t alive before.”

“…….”

He saw right through the meaning of a tragic story. Su-Gyeom looked at Han-Sol’s eyes, overshadowing his promise to cut him off confidently as he had just answered Yoo-chan. It was because Han-Sol’s momentum was so scary.

“I know this doesn’t make sense…… It’s because it’s weird. Hey, did you die before?”

Su-Gyeom would have pretended not to know if he was simply asking him to tell him everything that happened, but the point of the question was subtly different. It was a question that could only be answered with either yes or no.

Surprised, Su-Gyeom couldn’t answer anything but his lips.

Han-Sol was waiting for Su-Gyeom’s answer. He narrowed his eyes as if he had noticed something.

Han-Sol sharply hit the nail on the head.

“…… let me ask you again. You’re dead, aren’t you?”

Are they going to find out?!
