chapter 23
Episode 23. whisper
At the fan meeting place, blue guard bodyguards were placed all over the place.
Of course, we were careful not to disturb the passage of the staff or fans as much as possible.
In the meantime, Kang-soo was in the waiting room with Yoo So-hyun and Kim Bo-ran.
Kim Bo-ran looked at Kang-soo, who was standing there, and asked.
“I heard you went to check the stage earlier, so why are you looking so bad? What happened?”
There is a blue guard bodyguard, but it was to check once in case.
“it’s nothing.”
Kang-soo saw something he really didn’t want to see.
At the moment, his expression was crumpled, but he kept his composure as much as possible so as not to pretend to know.
“How are the people? I secretly wanted to see it, but Boran unnie asked if there was a need for that.”
“I’ll just come and see you. Like the last fan meeting, you’re going out secretly to give a surprise or something.”
“hehehehe-“
It was also the secret to Yoo So-hyun’s long-lasting love from countless fans.
Despite being an actor, singer, and rising to a high position as a heavenly entertainer, he did not keep a distance from his fans.
Rather, the more famous he became, the closer he approached.
That’s why there were almost no anti-fans, but I couldn’t help but be more surprised by the hydrochloric acid attack.
“It’s done!”
Na Bong-sook was in charge of the makeup, just like last time.
When the preparations were complete, Yoo So-hyun jumped up and changed into the clothes she would wear at the opening of the fan meeting.
.
.
.
“hello! everyone-!”
The curtain opened slightly on the stage, and Yoo So-hyun’s face popped out.
At that moment, cheers erupted from the mouths of the fans who were shouting ‘Yoo So-hyun!’
“Waaa—!”
The fan meeting started like that.
At first, it was a simple exchange of greetings and conversations.
There is no MC. Yoo So-hyun did everything alone.
Meanwhile, behind the scenes, Kim Bo-ran sighs when she sees her lively conversation with a fan.
“What’s so good…”
“…But are you still doing it alone like that?”
When Kangsu was in Ejisto, he participated in escorting a famous foreign celebrity fan meeting.
At that time, celebrities were mostly sitting, singing, or participating in events.
On the other hand, Yoo So-hyun was busy enough to run around the stage by herself.
“Are you curious? We’ve said it a few times, but it’s like that. Besides, I didn’t have a fan meeting once, but five times a week… Ah-oh-!”
Kim Bo-ran looked like his blood pressure was rising.
In the meantime, Kang-soo only knew that he had heard it wrong.
“Five times?”
“Yes, five times with 100 people. If I receive a lot at once, I don’t like it because it’s too far away. The one who is running around over there.”
“···that’s interesting······.”
“Help me! please save me! Please… as much as this child…”
At that time, a familiar girl’s image passed in front of Kang-soo’s eyes, accompanied by a voice.
While working as a mercenary in Nightwing, it was time to rescue civilians captured by the rebels. There was an Asian girl holding a bleeding child.
He put the child first before himself.
“You’ve grown up well…”
“yes? Ah… when Sohyeon was a child actor?”
Kim Bo-ran understood differently.
A whopping 7 years ago… At that time, Yoo So-hyun was just 20 years old.
Soon after, Kang-soo nodded and saw Gong Chi-yeong waving a strangely shaped stick in the front row of the audience.
“ah···. I’m going to get some fresh air.”
I didn’t see anything bad, but it was because I felt something unpleasant.
When I came out, a chilly wind blew.
“Really, how does this happen? It was a place where plays were held called Faru Little Theater, but people say people were injured because a truck ran into it. Even the driver is crazy. Could it be that he was driving drunk?」
Suddenly PD Choi Yoon-ho’s voice rang in Kang-soo’s head.
It was the first time since I remembered Hong Ah-jin in Los Angeles.
Kang-soo felt like his head was going numb, but he was overcome by an unpleasant feeling as if an ominous feeling engulfed his whole body from his toes.
“···what? Why did you say that then…”
The memory of that time also crossed Kang-soo’s mind.
Choi Yoon-ho, who was sitting on a bench, was reading an urgent news article that alerted him on his cell phone.
At the same time, Kangsu turned his head and checked the signboard of the small theater he had just walked out of.
[Faru Small Theater]
Chills ran down my spine. It was an auditory hallucination and a situation that could never be passed comfortably.
Kangsu stopped while trying to take out his cell phone while climbing the stairs of the tallest building in the nearest location.
“Ah, Gong Chi-young…!”
It was like asking to scan the CCTV of a nearby road.
However, the person in charge must be shouting ‘Yoo So-hyun’ in the small theater in Faru.
I couldn’t go back down because of anxiety.
Kangsu went up to the roof and scanned the surrounding roads.
“Shouldn’t be today…”
It was a very sudden situation.
The coolness he had maintained under any circumstances was gone.
Why did I hear PD Choi Yoon-ho’s voice as an auditory hallucination today?
“Not that one, not that one… is it that truck?”
Sent several trucks past. Then, on an eight-lane round-trip road, a 5-ton truck caught my eye.
There is something strange about the movement.
I want to sneak into the next lane, then come back, and this time I’m about to cross into the opposite lane.
At this, the driver of the car behind, who was in a temper, shouted loudly.
However, the movement of the truck did not change significantly. It was clear that something was wrong, but the distance was too far to see the driver’s side.
And soon the truck was going to reach the side road beside the road where the little theater was.
“Does it break around that point and come in?”
The small theater is next to the entrance to the side road.
From experience, Kang-soo predicted the position where the car would come in when it was bent.
But the problem is…
“There is no time!”
I don’t know if I have a gun right now.
Soon after, Kang-soo looked around and found the roof of the building next door.
There was no way to get down as quickly as possible.
There are 2 buildings to the main road. After looking for the tallest building and climbing up, the distance has increased.
The river ran once.
ride and ride-
They climbed over the rooftops of buildings one after another. In the middle, I saw a pile of ropes that seemed to have been used during construction, so I took them.
Then, when we reached the end of the roof of the last building, we checked the location of the car.
I was almost there. And the staggering movement was worse than before.
After tying the rope he had just grabbed into a double knot at the end of the broken pipe, Kangsu jumped as far as he could.
“Zenzaang—!”
At that time, something happened in the truck, and the wheel snapped and tried to enter the side road.
The building where the precipitation fell was the 7th floor. Beneath it, a rope hanging from the river was caught on the ledge of a lamppost built at the end of the sidewalk.
widely-! hook!
At that moment, as the rope tightened, the pendulum’s pendulum bent as if caught in the middle. Kang-soo flew off like a web swing and met the driver’s side window of the truck.
Kwajik- Chandang!
The glass on the driver’s side was shattered, allowing Kang-soo to enter the truck.
Inside, the driver had collapsed on his side.
Kang-soo didn’t even have time to stand up before he reached out and pressed the brake.
Hey hey hey hey hey!
The roar of the brakes, which I thought would never end, stopped.
For a moment, silence filled the surroundings. Soon after, the murmur of people came from outside the truck.
rattle.
Kang-soo opened the passenger side door of the truck and came down and let out a sigh.
“Whoa— I lived.”
Even thinking about it, it was really crazy.
Soon, Kang-soo went back to the car and checked the person who had fallen.
“Did you pass out? Hey! Hey!”
pair – pair –
I couldn’t come to my senses even when I tried to slap him on the cheek.
Kangsu took out his cell phone from his pocket, but it was broken. When I jumped into the car, it hit something and seemed to break.
“Someone please call an ambulance and police… no, just an ambulance.”
The police had arrived ahead.
They didn’t understand what was going on, so they asked Kang-su who came out of the truck.
“How did this happen?”
“The truck tried to run over the sidewalk . . . and was blocked. The driver seems to have fainted for some reason.”
“···yes?”
The police did not understand the situation.
Then some people around me shouted as if they were testifying.
“That truck suddenly broke and ran.”
“I think that person who fell from the sky entered the truck and stopped it.”
“Suddenly, a person hanging from a rope in the sky—!”
All kinds of testimonies flew in.
After hearing such an explanation, a police officer noticed a rope hanging down from the roof of the building next door.
I couldn’t believe it at all.
.
.
.
Kim Bo-ran still watched Yoo So-hyun’s fan meeting from behind the scenes.
Then, I hear the murmur of the staff passing by.
“I heard there was an accident outside?”
“accident?”
“They said a truck pulled right in front of them.”
Kim Bo-ran, whose ears were pricked up, was difficult to pass by.
It was said that Yoo So-hyun had an accident at a fan meeting, so it seemed necessary to confirm. So, I called Kang-soo, who said he was going out earlier.
“Why is it off?”
Inevitably, Kim Bo-ran went out of the small theater.
And I saw a crowd of people right in front of the small theater entrance and a truck parked right in front of the entrance steps.
“What is this…? uh? Mr. Kangsu!”
Kangsu could also be found standing with the police next to the truck.
But the atmosphere was strange.
“Yes, Mr. Boran.”
“What happen? Why is your body like that?”
From the legs to the torso, arms, face and head, there was no sound anywhere.
It started with minor bruises, and the clothes were torn here and there.
“I had some business.”
“therefore. What’s going on? Could it be that you were hit by a truck?”
The police interrupted their conversation.
“now. Calm down. Once I heard the situation, someone here stopped the truck that had turned off the road and onto the sidewalk on the side road.”
“Who… what, builds? this truck?”
“For now, yes. But what is your relationship?”
The police explained that Bo-ran Kim was too inquisitive, thinking they were family.
But it doesn’t seem to be the atmosphere, so I was curious.
“It’s a work colleague. But really…”
Kim Bo-ran tried to argue again, but felt that the atmosphere around him was strange.
surprise? Admiration? respect?
In the meantime, an ambulance arrived and took the driver out of the truck and gave first aid.
“You have to go through the investigation again, but let’s go to the hospital first.”
Even in the eyes of the police, Kangsu’s appearance was nonsensical.
“it’s okay. I have something to do, so I will go to the police station and start the investigation.”
Next to him, Kim Bo-ran couldn’t help but feel full of energy.
“Now this is the first thing to do from the police station! I will take care of Sohyeon. Mr. Kangsu, go to the hospital! hey! One more patient here!”
It was a voice calling for an ambulance.
