Taejonbirok Volume 3 Episode 20
Chapter 22: The Good Man Does Not Come (5)
“But still, aren’t you a royal inspector in name only? Royal inspector!”
“Ah?”
The left-handed man tilted his head.
Jin So-ah shouted with great confidence.
“Yes! That man over there is the Inspector General! He has seen your wickedness with his own eyes, and he will never turn a blind eye to it!”
The left-hand man's face became serious.
If the term "inspector" refers to the imperial inspectorate, then this was no ordinary matter. If he were a real inspector, he would have the power to erase Heukjijubang from the world in an instant.
but!
'What is this?'
That human?
The left-handed man looked at Wi Yeon-ho with a trembling face.
Let's say he could be an expert, even if we give him a hundred concessions. He saw it with his own eyes, so there's no way he wouldn't believe it, but how can we believe it to that extent?
But what the heck.
Is being a royal inspector something that an ordinary person can do?
Among those who passed the difficult past, only the best could enter the Eosaedae.
But that guy with a face that doesn't look like a gun is a police officer?
The left-handed man looked at Jin So-ah with a mixture of suspicion and distrust.
Jin So-ah, who realized what the left-handed man's gaze meant, swung her sword sharply.
“No, I’m not scamming you!”
“No matter what, it’s a bit…….”
“Why don’t you just ask him?”
“Euuuuum…….”
The left-handed man still looked at Wei Yanhu with a sullen face.
“Is that right?”
“What?”
“Are you a monk?”
“Me?”
Wi Yeon-ho laughed with a face of absurdity.
“No.”
“…….”
When the left-handed man turned around with eyes telling him to look at that, Jin So-ah stuttered and shouted.
“Oh, no! I heard it with my own ears! It was a secret!”
When the gaze of the left-hand man returned to Wi Yeon-ho, Wi Yeon-ho answered again with a calm expression.
“No.”
“No, that’s not it……”
“Oh my, I’m going crazy! Why are you lying! I heard it clearly!”
Wi Yeon-ho yawned and continued speaking.
“Hey, does it make sense for me to be a royal inspector at my age?”
“Right?”
“It seems like a child had a dream, so please understand with an open mind.”
“Wow, you are indeed wise.”
Jin So-ah pounded her chest as she watched Wi Yeon-ho, who was quickly becoming a pair of left-handed men, begin to embrace her.
How on earth did something like that roll into a house and create this mess?
“Ugh.”
Jin So-ah felt like screaming at him right then and there, but she wasn't stupid enough to not realize that her frustration wouldn't help resolve the situation at all.
“So you’re saying you won’t get involved in the Heukji Kitchen’s business, right?”
The words of the left-hand man became shorter again.
“Just a moment.”
“Hmm?”
“I’m not that smart, so I can’t do the math well if you push me. I need to think about which is right.”
Wi Yeon-ho said that and buried his head under the blanket.
“……You think in a peculiar way.”
Zuo Jie had a lot to say, but he felt he had no choice but to hold on to Wei Yan Ho and continue talking.
'Just wait a moment.'
If you wait a little longer… … .
Drumroll.
The left-hand man's eyes shook.
The eyes of the left-handed man and Jin So-ah met.
Jin So-ah groaned as if she was in pain, then slowly approached Wi Yeon-ho and shook him, including the blanket.
“So-hyeop, you shouldn’t be sleeping. So-hyeop?”
“Ugh…….”
Unlike when he went in, Wei Yanho's head slowly popped out of the blanket.
The left-handed man felt like crying.

But what can you do? If you feel wronged, you have to fight back.
If he hadn't cursed the eccentric person who tried to take him away, saying that he had a large frame when he was young, as if he were a kidnapper, he wouldn't have suffered such humiliation now.
“No matter what, it’s like that! How can I sleep in the middle of all this!”
This time, even Wi Yeon-ho showed an awkward smile, perhaps embarrassed.
“I couldn’t sleep well last night…….”
“…….”
Jinsoah looked up at the sky with vain eyes.
If a person who does nothing but sleep all day says he can't sleep, everyone else would be in hell by now due to lack of sleep.
"anyway."
Wi Yeon-ho yawned again and opened his mouth.
“I thought about it……”
"yes."
“I don’t think that girl will be able to give it to me.”
At Wei Yanho's words, Zuo Jie's face turned red.
“Are you trying to interrupt the Heukji Kitchen event right now?”
“I don’t know if it’s a black kitchen or a black mosquito room, I thought about it, but I did receive a letter of recommendation, so if I send that girl away like this, it’ll be bad for the sender’s reputation…….”
Wi Yeon-ho shivered as if he remembered something.
“When I think about the woman who will rush to me and boil me to death if she finds out the whole story, I don’t think I can let that girl go for the sake of my future comfortable sleep.”
The left-handed man looked at Wi Yeon-ho with a stern expression.
Originally, there would have been no need to have a conversation like this, but since I couldn't fight with someone as skilled as him, I had no choice but to try to resolve the issue through conversation.
“Then I will assume that you have decided to disrupt the event in this room.”
“I don’t mean to bother you.”
When Zuo Jie was about to say something with his face twisted, Wei Yanhui cut him off.
“So… the problem now is money.”
The left-hander's eyebrows twitched.
“Well, that’s what it is.”
“Then all I have to do is pay back the money. You get the money and it’s good, and I don’t have to suffer.”
“Huh?”
The left-hand man smiled and said.
“So are you saying that you will pay the money on my behalf?”
Wi Yeon-ho opened his eyes wide.
“Where is my money?”
“…….”
“I’ve never had money in my life.”
The left-handed man nodded without realizing it.
Yeah, I guess so.
Looking at the way he acts, it looks like he's not even getting enough food, let alone money.
“But how are you going to pay me back?”
“Money is something you can make.”
If money were easy to make, who would bother?
He wanted to scream out loud, but the warning coming from his jaw, where he still had not fully recovered his senses, was too real.
“Ugh.”
When the left-handed man shook his head as if there was no answer, Wi Yeon-ho smiled faintly.
“There are many ways. I’ll make the money and give it to you, so don’t worry and just go.”
“If I go back like this, I’ll get beaten to death. At least give me a deadline.”
“I can give it to you within two weeks.”
“Really?”
“You don’t trust me?”
The eyes of the left-hand man wavered.
Of course I don't believe it!
Do you believe that I have never seen you before?
But what can you do? The law is far and your fists are close.
It was annoying to see Wei Yeon-ho wriggling under the blanket all this time, even though he was being picky.
“……I will believe you.”
The left-hand man bowed his head.
The biggest reason he was able to survive in the Black Sea until now was his ability to find a suitable place to lie down.
But no matter how I looked at it, this was not a place to lie down.
I had a strong feeling that if I continued to act clumsily, I would end up eating only porridge instead of meat for the rest of my life.
“I believe you will definitely keep your promise.”
“Yes, yes. If I take away the god, I’ll be a corpse again.”
Zuo Jie looked at Wi Yeon Ho as if he couldn't believe it, then turned his head and glared at Jin So Ah and Jin Ye Ran.
“Since your majesty has promised, I will believe your word and go back today. However, if you still can’t pay me back after the promised time, I will show you how to handle it. No excuses will work then! Next time, I will not come alone.”
The words of the left-hand man were directed at the two siblings, but they were also a warning to Wi Yeon-ho.
But Wei Yanho, whether he knew it or not, slowly crawled back into the room.
“I’m going back.”
As the left-hand man turned around and went out of the holy water hall, Jin So-ah sat down there listlessly, as if her tension had been relieved.
“Whew…….”
A deep sigh escapes me without me realizing it.
“What on earth is going on?”
As Jin So-ah was looking at the hospital in chaos with the patients being dragged out, Jin Ye-ran calmly reassured her.
“First, bring the patients back to their rooms and check their pulses to see if they’re all surprised.”
“……Is the patient a problem right now?”
“If the patient isn’t the problem, what’s the problem?”
“Sister! Sister, you were almost dragged into the hospital. How can you even say that you want to see a patient in such a situation?”
At that moment, sparks flew from Jin Ye-ran's eyes.
“Is that something that should come out of a member of the National Assembly? Have you already forgotten your father’s teaching that a member of the National Assembly should put patients first in any situation?”
Jinsoah got up from her seat, grumbling.
“Everyone, please return to your seats. Mr. Hwang, please help me. I will have to get those who have difficulty moving back to their rooms.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Jin So-ah stepped forward and pushed the patients back into the room, stability returned.
Jin Ye-ran quietly watched the scene and then turned her head to look at the door of the room that Wi Yeon-ho had entered.
Jin Ye-ran’s eyes were filled with a complex light.
That night.
“Are you sleeping?”
"huh."
“……You’re sleeping.”
Jin So-ah opened Wi Yeon-ho's door without hesitation and went inside.
"huh?"
Jin So-ah rubbed her eyes as if surprised.
“I clearly heard the answer?”
Jin So-ah rubbed her eyes and looked around the room, but there was no trace of Wi Yeon-ho.
“It would be a shame for a ghost to cry.”
“Tsk.”
Wi Yeon-ho clicked his tongue as he looked at Jin So-ah, who was looking around the room from the eaves.
“What are you going to nag me about now?”
Jinsoah didn't really bother him, but she whined too much.
If I keep going at the same pace, I won't be able to get a good night's sleep. In that case, it would be better to sleep on the eaves, even if it was a little chilly.
Although the night dew was cold, for Wi Yeon-ho, who had spent five years in the cave, this air and night dew were almost charming.
“Okay, then go to sleep…….”
Just as Wei Yanhu was about to fall asleep, a low sobbing sound came into his ear.
"to……."
Wi Yeon-ho looked down with a slightly surprised expression.
'Whose room is this?'
There was no need to look into it. The sobbing was loud. It was the sound of a young woman crying.
Wi Yeon-ho felt his chest tighten slightly as he looked up at the stars that filled the sky.
"……mother."
Hearing the low sobbing sound, Wei Yanhui let out a silent sigh.
“It’s my fate.”
Wherever I went, I was destined to have a good rest. Since I left the cave, the place I had the most peace of mind was the beggar's cave, isn't that all?
Even the heavens are indifferent.
Giving someone both laziness and trouble. Isn't this the real way to torment a person?
“Ugh.”
Wi Yeon-ho tightly closed his eyes.
Even if I can solve tomorrow's work tomorrow, I have to sleep for today. If I don't sleep well today, I'll collapse tomorrow.
The distant sounds of crickets, low sobs, and the soft breathing of Wei Yanhu filled the starlit night sky.
