Devil Returns To School Days - Chapter 111

22. Yeokjisaji (1)

Several months ago from now.

In a dark room, Jung Min-ho buried his face between his knees and closed his eyes tightly.

I wanted to ignore reality.

The loud sound of my cell phone vibrating made me feel like I was going crazy.

Jiing.

Jiing jiing.

“…Fuck, stop now.”

I knew who the caller was.

Park Min-cheol’s gang.

Park Min-cheol, Cho Yong-taek, and Kang Chang-seok, who he once hung out with, took turns sending him messages.

How much time has passed?

As soon as the phone went silent, Jung Min-ho carefully picked it up.

In that space, which was dark even when I opened my eyes, the bright light from the cell phone spread in all directions as if engulfing the surroundings.

[Park Min -cheol]

[Hey. Please answer the phone. We’re all screwed now, so you just have to survive? You were the one who received the request to deal with Kim Hyun-seong in the first place. You were asked to ride Shin Young-min’s line, so why are we the only ones who have to go through this?]

[Kang Chang-seok]

[You really shouldn’t be in my sight. Because we can’t see anything right now? When I get released from juvenile detention center, I will look for you first.]

[Cho Yong-taek]

[…Minho. Would you like to survive alone? You are not real.]

These were letters filled with resentment.

At that time, Park Min-cheol’s gang was being punished for the ‘Shin Young-min incident’, and they asked Jeong Min-ho for help, feeling like they were grasping at straws. Still, isn’t Jung Min-ho the only person with some background? However, Park Min-cheol’s gang felt a huge sense of betrayal when they were not even contacted, let alone helped.

why.

Are they the only ones who should be punished?

The resentment towards Jung Min-ho exploded like an active volcano, and even though he changed his number, he continued to contact me, wondering how he knew.

‘Now is not the time to take care of someone. Hyunseong Kim That bastard is crazy. It wasn’t enough that they expelled us from school, they destroyed our family, and now they somehow got us together and sent us to a juvenile detention center. But go back to Daesan and deal with Kim Hyun-seong? why me. ‘There’s no reason to go back to hell when I can live a new life here.’

It was a self-suggestion.

When his parents told him to leave Daesan with a despairing look on their faces, Jung Min-ho vowed that he would never return to Daesan. So I left for Gyeonggi-do. Once he was clearly out of the influence of Myungjin Construction, no more unfortunate events occurred, and he gradually recovered his normal life by planning to enroll in a new school.

Free from the nightmare of the past.

Park Min-cheol.

Kang Chang-seok and Cho Yong-taek.

It was just a nightmare from the past.

I didn’t want to go back to that horrible moment just to save my fragile friendship.

I pressed block one by one.

And then.

“…It’s like shit, really.”

I buried my face between my legs again.

* * *

Did they say that time is medicine?

Jeong Min-ho, who had been spending his ominous days thinking that Kim Hyun-seong might take revenge at any moment, gradually regained his stability when nothing happened even though Park Min-cheol’s entire gang was taken to a juvenile detention center.

This made it clear.

Myungjin Construction, which helps Hyunseong Kim, seemed unable to do anything outside of Daesan.

That’s how we welcomed the new year.

Fortunately, thanks to revised laws, readmission to another school was possible even after being expelled. I went to work in the business world and took a year off, but I was still able to regain my status as a high school student. At first, I thought about taking the qualification exam, but my parents were against it. My parents thought that I should finish school normally.

A high school in Gyeonggi-do.

Jung Min-ho, a first-year high school student, lived a completely different life than when he was at Cheonil High School.

“I will help you.”

“Oh, thank you.”

A classmate carried a heavy load.

Friends didn’t know about Jung Min-ho’s situation.

In fact, since he was born early, he was practically the same age as the first-year high school students, and he completely hid the fact that he came here after being expelled from another school. Of course, my parents actively donated money to the teachers during that process. Even if a rich person goes bankrupt, it lasts for three generations, so Jung Min-ho’s family still had that much to spare.

My parents asked with a serious face.

never.

Never cause an accident.

Jung Min-ho also did not want to relive the nightmare of the past, so he put on a good mask and continued his school life.

“Thank you. “It’s no big deal.”

“As expected, Jung Min-ho. “Why are you so nice?”

“swimming.”

I laughed.

I was happy.

In the eyes of my friends who do not blame me for being able to live normally like this.

I could breathe again.

Jung Min-ho quickly blended into school.

He no longer committed any mistakes that might have earned him ill will, and since he first treated his friends favorably, there was no reason for his classmates to dislike him. If there was a heavy load, they carried it together, if they skipped homework, they were willing to show it to them, and they did not ignore their friends’ difficulties and were the first to lend a hand.

This thought came to me late.

Why didn’t he live like this?

Jeong Min-ho became increasingly satisfied with his new life due to the kindness that was completely different from when he used his petty power to oppress his friends.

Then one day it happened.

Just as he was about to leave school, something suddenly fell in front of Jung Minho.

Tuk.

“hey.”

I raised my head.

I saw a familiar face.

Park Min-gu was the guy who swaggered around in the back of school every day.

He spoke with a nervous look, twitching his lips.

“I heard you are called an angel among your kids? “Please move this to my house.”

* * *

The identity of something.

It was a school bag.

Jung Min-ho’s expression hardened.

This was an obvious fight.

I knew better than anyone else that if I couldn’t show a clear response to the current situation, I would be reduced to Park Min-gu’s shuttle. Why? Because I was like that too. When he was leading Park Min-cheol’s gang and harassing his friends, he picked out those who could not resist properly and bullied them persistently.

Run errands.

Even if I hit you every day.

The type that can’t resist.

Such a group was called a shuttle, and Jung Min-ho enjoyed power in the space called school.

“…Nope?”

The calculation has been completed.

It was time to attack the opponent.

It’s okay to get beaten up.

If Kim Hyun-seong proves that he is strong, unlike other shuttles who never back down, Park Min-gu will not bother to bully himself either. After that, you just have to go back to your normal life. I thought it was a rite of passage that I had to experience at least once after entering a new environment.

Jung Min-ho, who was called an angel, opened his eyes fiercely.

“Why did I…gag.”

Bah!

Quadang!

I was literally kicked in the stomach.

Jeong Min-ho, clutching his abdomen in immense pain, gritted his teeth while spitting out spit.

‘You must not give in.’

I couldn’t show weakness.

kicked the ground

Although his face was red from the pain from just now, he rushed forward and swung his fist at Park Min-gu.

however.

Swish.

Swish swish.

Park Min-gu easily dodged the punch.

I got goosebumps.

The way he lets his fists flow with only his upper body movements proves that Park Min-gu is different from ordinary gangsters. I had no idea at the time. The fact that Park Min-gu is very famous in Gyeonggi-do.

Bah!

The face was tilted back.

Blood splattered.

Jung Min-ho continued to swing his fist, but each time Park Min-gu’s sharp fist found a loophole.

puck.

Sigh!

“evil!”

My strength was gone.

Jung Min-ho collapsed with a pitiful scream.

That was the end.

Park Min-gu walked up to Jeong Min-ho, pulled him up by his hair, and put his face towards him.

And then.

“From today onwards you are my toy, understand?”

He showed a grin.

* * *

New environment.

New beginning.

I was definitely happy.

I thought I had escaped the nightmare that was Kim Hyun-seong, but the new disaster that was Park Min-gu changed the whole situation.

I carried Park Min-gu’s school bag every day.

I followed behind with cautious steps for fear of offending the noisy crowd.

It was a relief to go home right away, but every time Jung Min-ho turned to another direction, whether it was the playground or the karaoke room, he had to hold his school bag right there. My hands were shaking. I was furious at the fact that I was in this situation, but I had no choice but to grit my teeth at the light weight of nothing.

And when you get home.

“You worked hard, idiot.”

Bah!

Park Min-gu hit the back of the head like a procedure he repeats every day.

It was the moment when my life fell apart.

Since the rumor spread that Jung Min-ho was Park Min-gu’s official shuttle, friends who used to call Jung Min-ho an angel stopped coming to him. I was worried that sparks would fly for no reason. Jung Min-ho says there is no need to take risks. Even when Jung Min-ho spoke, everyone tended to ignore him, and some friends even got angry.

“Oh, don’t talk to me.”

“You take care of it.”

It was a miserable situation.

suddenly.

Kim Si-woo came to mind.

When Kim Hyun-seong fell into the abyss, wasn’t there a friend named Kim Si-woo who stayed by his side until the end?

If only Park Min-cheol’s gang had not ignored their difficulties.

Did he still have a friend like that?

It was a meaningless thought.

The pain of reality was too harsh for me to expand my thoughts.

Wow!

“hey. “Do you think I’m joking?”

Behind the school.

Jung Min-ho, who was hit on the cheek, lowered his head.

Park Min-gu’s gaze was so scary.

“…no.”

“But why is this all I have money for? I told you so. I need to have fun this weekend, so bring plenty. What on earth should I do with only 50,000 won? They say you have a lot of money. “Is this ignoring me?”

“That’s absolutely not true….”

Voila!

The face turned.

The harassment has now led to extortion of money.

As rumors began to spread that Jung Min-ho’s family was quite wealthy, Park Min-gu started asking for money as if he was taking money out of a piggy bank. For Jung Min-ho, there was no other way. Although my parents warned me not to cause accidents, it was difficult to exert their influence like in Daesan. Park Min-gu spent too much money just to enter school and hide the fact that he was an ‘expelled student’, so he had to handle it on his own.

My body was shaking.

rather.

Should I stab him with a knife?

Wouldn’t the cycle of bullying be broken if you show that you are truly a self-centered person?

“Why are you so angry?”

Park Min-gu stuck his face out.

I looked into Jung Min-ho’s thoughts.

I could clearly see what Jung Minho was thinking from his red face and trembling body.

Park Min-gu said.

“Why don’t you tell your parents and tell them what to do? Or maybe get a knife and stab me? Do it if you can, you idiot. You’re the one over there. “Do you know who he is?”

Where the finger points.

There were friends of Park Min-gu.

He pointed to a handsome-looking friend among them who was smoking a cigarette, laughing and talking.

“Their house. He is a rich man known in Gyeonggi-do. He’s not just rich, he’s so rich that even the principal of our school would jump out at him with just one word from his parents. But what can you do? Nothing will happen if you reach your parents, and if you stab me with a knife, we will hire a lawyer and completely ruin your life. It’s X anyway. All you can do is grit your teeth and hold on for the next three years or tear your life apart with your own hands. “That’s all there is.”

“…Why on earth are you doing this to me? “I didn’t do anything wrong.”

“Why?”

I chuckled.

As Jeong Min-ho, he couldn’t understand.

Their malice.

What is the reason?

Park Min-gu made eye contact and blurted out something.

“Someone told me to do that.”

“…what?”

“Why didn’t you live your life right? The fact that he took you as soon as he entered school means that this is the relationship you wanted.”

Moment.

There was a word that flashed in my mind.

Golden Circle.

The moment when thoughts reach that point.

“Well, regardless, it’s also fun.”

Sigh.

Jung Min-ho, who was caught by his hair, fell into the pit of hell both physically and mentally.

A day not even in April.

Jung Min-ho’s new life, a new hell has begun.
