Awakened as a Superman

chapter 48



{ return 3 }

A young man was walking down the street.

A slender body with a height slightly taller than the average adult.

A typical college student is wearing a hoodie over jeans and carrying a backpack.

He is wearing an earphone in only one ear.

bang

As he walked out of the apartment complex and turned into the main road, he was walking towards the bus stop. Suddenly, a black van honked his horn and ran over to him.

bang

He kept walking, thinking it had nothing to do with him, but when the horn sounded again, he glanced back.

Then, an unexpectedly familiar face caught my eye.

“father?”

“Hurry up!”

I don’t know the English, but at his father’s resolute tone, he hurriedly moved and got into the car through the open door.

“Is there a mother too? Huh?”

Unexpectedly caught in his sight, he spit out a word on his face.

Something has changed a bit, but you can see it at a glance.

“Brother? What, all of a sudden? When did you come?”

As the car started moving quickly, Yuhan-wol looked at his brother and said.

Since I had boiled the inside a little, the tone did not come out well even after a long break.

“Hey! Dude! Why aren’t you answering the phone?”

“Huh? Did you call?”

“Take a missed call. How many?”

His younger brother, Yoo Je-wol, calmly checks his cell phone.

“Ah, you’re the one who called because of the caller ID restriction? I don’t answer those calls at all.”

The simple words of my younger brother.

Then Yuhan Wol changed the subject and said.

“And you, what the guy who went to school is doing here now?”

“Huh? Did you tutor?”

“Teaching?”

“yes.”

“You… dude, if you have time for that, study more…”

“… you should make money while you can. What nonsense is that.”

Yoo Je-wol immediately cut off the conversation as if he was listening to a nonsensical sound.

It was Yuhan Wol who gave the money he received from BH to his parents to help with his younger brother’s tuition.

So I wanted my younger brother to focus more on his studies… …

But there was nothing wrong with what my brother said.

The money I gave is not a huge amount of money, so there is nothing wrong with making money in advance if you can earn money for living expenses or future use.

“It’s not even dinner now, it’s from the morning what… tutoring!?”

Of course, tutoring is not done during the evening hours after school for students.

But Yoo Je-wol’s response is unobstructed.

“Ah… the kid I look at is a dropout. It’s because he dropped out of school and went all-in on the SAT.”

“…”

Yuhan Wol kept his mouth shut, and Yoo Je Wol opened his mouth.

“But what happened all of a sudden? When did you come home? Why did you and your parents suddenly come all the way here? What’s with this car?”

But the older brother does not speak, and neither does the parents explain.

“Is there something urgent? Then you should have called your parents.”

Then the father spoke in a solemn tone.

“Turn off your cell phone.”

* * *

“Welcome. Nice to meet you.”

As Yuhan Wol’s family got out of the car, Aiden came to the garage and greeted them warmly.

It was a family that saw and felt a lot while coming.

I could see the seriousness of the work in its severity and complexity.

It’s like some great secret organization.

Besides, the facilities are great too.

How much money would it take to build and maintain a facility like this?

Of course, there was no reason not to ask, and Yuhan-wol gave me a rough idea.

When I first heard it, it didn’t have a sense of reality at all, but it’s a car I’m starting to wonder if it might be true.

And Aiden began to explain the situation once more in a friendly and serious tone to the family sitting in the living room.

Yuhan Wol also sat next to him and listened to his explanation.

It is a situation where we have to leave the operation as soon as possible, but we are unable to leave.

No matter how urgent the work, he had no intention of moving before his family’s whereabouts were clear.

And whether he understood his heart, Aiden did not show much expression toward Yuhan-wol, who was sitting on one side, but only focused on his family.

“So it’s better to stay here for a while. I’ve prepared as much as possible, but you’re probably going to feel very uncomfortable…”

As Aiden uttered his words of understanding, Yoo Je-wol, who had been silently listening, spoke suddenly.

“You have to stay here? Can’t you go out?”

“It doesn’t mean you can’t go out, but it’s probably… you’ll have to minimize your outings unless absolutely necessary.”

Then Yoo Je-wol answered in a firm tone.

“I can’t do that. How do I study?”

Yuhanwol looked at his younger brother and opened his mouth.

“Your life could be in danger. Is school important now?”

“Then it doesn’t matter. How did you get into college? Life? … Then what about my life? What will my life be like?”

The words that the younger brother swallowed in his mouth echoed Yuhan-wol’s head.

‘Because of my brother… .’

He could fully understand his brother’s feelings.

How long will I have to hide?

No matter how short it may be, it must be several years.

If you stop studying for a few years like that, the hard work you have accumulated throughout your life will be in vain.

So, how can we take this situation seriously?

I had been pushing for it because the safety of my family was at stake, but it was difficult to say anything more.

Father and mother looking at Yu Je-wol.

However, they are not easily able to open their mouths.

At that moment, Aiden suddenly opened his mouth.

“Jewol-gun. You are right. I have no intention of forcing you to make sacrifices unilaterally. Um… Would you like to talk to me and the other side for a while?”

Yu Je-wol got up from his seat and followed him moving to one side.

In the midst of thick silence revolving around the place, Yuhan Wol’s mouth suddenly opened.

“Father. Mom. I’m sorry.”

As with his younger brother, he did not have the face to see his parents’ faces.

The reason why they had to live in hiding without a promise was because the two of them were the same.

“…I hope it’s okay. That’s the most important thing. I’ll have to figure out how to deal with it in the future.”

How many parts do you want to scold?

However, it was Yuhan Wol, who became more guilty of the unexpectedly calm reaction of his parents.

The father, who looked at Yuhan-wol with his head down for a moment, turned his head and looked at where Yoo Je-wol was headed.

The words explained by the person who introduced him as Aiden linger in my head.

‘… … ‘

How long has it been?

It was a time of silence because everyone’s minds were complicated, but it certainly didn’t last long.

However, Yoo Je-wol, who returned to his seat following Aiden with a bright face, opened his mouth to the faces looking at him.

“I’ll be here, too. Until the problem is resolved.”

Aiden smiles at the gaze of the left who is focused on her.

“Thankfully, Jewol-gun made a good decision with broad understanding. Then… Let Livi guide the family to the facilities. Please pay close attention so that you do not feel uncomfortable. Hanwol-gun, you will have to leave immediately.”

Yuhan Wol nodded his head.

It’s an urgency, he doesn’t need to mention it again, he’s fully aware of it.

So, his words must be in consideration for his family.

Yuhan Wol got up from his seat and said.

“Father, Mom. Then, take a look around the facility. If you need anything, just tell me. I’ll be right back. I’ll probably be there in two or three days.”

He is a son that I barely met after boiling for a long time whether he was dead or alive.

Next to Mom with a worried face, Dad opened his mouth first with a serious tone.

“Yeah. Take care of yourself.”

“Yes. Don’t worry. It’ll be fine.”

The father, who was staring at his son’s smiling face, turned around and strode away.

Everyone hurriedly followed behind him as he moved quickly enough to share shoulders with Livi who was guiding him.

Yang Kwang then moved to prepare for the operation with Cain, and Aiden, Brian, and Yuhan Wol were left in the living room.

Looking back at Aiden who was smiling, Yuhan Wol asked.

“…how did you do it?”

How did you change your brother’s thinking?

The stubborn one is a younger brother who is second to none.

‘I thought it wouldn’t be easy… ‘

Then Aiden suddenly asked.

“Hey, what did you do in the game?”

“yes?”

“You said you were old enough to eat? You died of old age. You lived your whole life, didn’t you accumulate wisdom during that long time?”

“… it certainly wasn’t a life where you could afford to have a family.”

“Ttttttt. Hey, do you know what your brother’s dream is?”

Yuhan Wol was speechless at the question that Aiden, who was biting his tongue, threw it back.

can’t answer

“…”

“I don’t know. So, do you know what your younger brother’s major is? Ah… I’m asking a question. You don’t know what your dreams are, but you know what your major is.”

Even if it wasn’t, I didn’t know that, it was a car I was pathetic to myself.

“Biotechnology. My brother’s dream is to be a researcher. To be a scientist.”

It was Yuhan-wol with an expression that felt something at that time.

“That, then?”

“He knew me.”

“Is it January?”

“Yeah. At first, it seemed like a long time ago, but he said he had read a paper I wrote a long time ago.”

“ah…”

“Well, it’s hard to find experts in this field who haven’t read my thesis… But it’s not easy for a freshman in college. It must mean that your younger brother has a high level of skill and puts a lot of effort into it. The goal is clear.”

Yuhan-wol’s mood slowly improves at Aiden’s praise.

He is truly at the forefront of his field.

So the reason he said this to this extent was because he was not acknowledging his younger brother’s superiority.

Aiden’s voice continued to be heard.

“What’s the difference? I promised your younger brother that I would teach you directly. Of course, the actual content of education is different from what you can get at university. Besides, the time and experience will also be invaluable, even with a university diploma, etc. Think about it. Candidates with common college diplomas and those who have done research with me. If you were a recruiter at a company, who would you hire?”

He talked about Korea University, a prestigious university among prestigious universities, in a very ordinary way, but Yuhan-wol nodded as if he understood.

Even the most prestigious universities in the world can think so.

“By the way, your brother, do you know how to negotiate?”

his sudden words.

“yes?”

When Yuhan Wol asked the question, Aiden continued.

“Actually, I’m the one who has to pay a huge price for teaching me that way and letting me participate in my research. Of course, I don’t need any more money.”

“…”

“Anyway, but… your younger brother suddenly asked. Then, what do you do if you can’t go to tutoring in the meantime?”

“…”

“So you’re asking for money. Hahaha! So I decided to give you some money too. Then my brother agreed to stay here.”

Words rich in public servants.

But there was no discomfort in his bright smile.

“thank you.”

Aiden frowned at Yuhanwol’s sincere greeting.

“Really! This is a secret from Do Kwang-gun.”

It reminds me of Yang Gwang Yang, who couldn’t even refute Aiden’s words after talking about his salary.

Aiden moved while looking at Yuhan Wol with a gentle smile on his face.

“Then let’s go to Do Kwang-gun quickly. Maybe it’s because your ears are itching while you’re in a hurry to prepare for your operation now.”

“yes.”

Yuhan-wol did not immediately follow him, but looked up for a moment.

The presence of Rivy and her family can be felt upstairs.

And while Yuhan-wol stands still, he quietly changes his gaze.

Whether or not he knows he’s not following, he sees Aiden’s back, moving quickly in the direction of the underground passage.

Did you say that you want to save your family first to go to war with peace of mind?

‘Looking the other way… ‘

Yuhan Wol thought.

It’s like taking a hostage.
