His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 141: Aren't you like In-Sik too?

At this moment in my life, I do not believe that anything is a coincidence.

"Why Yoon Miran?" I feel too tired to yell. "Did I meet her because of her condition?"

The keeper gives me a heavy nod. "She's an urgent one."

"Is she my responsibility because I turned back time?" Jae Kyung died. I met Yoon Miran. I found out that she's keeping the soul of a psychopath inside her. After coming across her, I did look into her out of curiosity because I wanted to know who Hong Kwak In-Sik was.

The timekeeper sighs. "Yoon Miran was not supposed to have Kwak In-Sik's soul inside her."

So, it changed.

It was around 5 years ago. Yoon Miran was treated like a national sinner for taking the case of a man who was suspected of a popular murder case. Later, it turned out that the murderer was not only someone else. He killed her parents, the people who were connected to the cases that she won, her friends, and her cousin.

Kwak In-Sik was no other than a popular businessman Son Tae-Il. He switched his identity after an accident and lived as Kwak In-Sik. He even had a family. When they found out that he was the murderer, he went missing.

But I know that he didn't go missing. He's living inside Yoon Miran.

"I told her that I wouldn't bother her. I know that it's wrong, but Yoon Miran seems okay with another soul inside her." I feel uneasy just thinking about Kwak In-Sik. Does Kim Taeho know? "It looks like she loved that killer for real."

"She might be okay. But we are not." The timekeeper frowns at me. "That's an unholy union. It is certainly not love between them. We have to fix it before something bad happens."

"Right." I massage my forehead. "Nothing bad happened since Kwak In-Sik died. What would happen now?"

"Kim Taeho has to leave soon for mandatory military service." The timekeeper scowls at me. "Nothing bad happened because he was there. After he's gone, there's two future for Yoon Miran. The first one is that Yoon Miran will snap and she will take the same path that Kwak In-Sik did. Her first victims might be her children or Kwak In-Sik's wife and his children. She might kill them all. The second one is that she will resist and kill herself. Kwak In-Sik is someone who enjoyed killing. It won't be long that Yoon Miran will give into his desires if Kim Taeho leaves. Kwak In-Sik is wary of Kim Taeho because Kim Taeho is extremely cautious. Also, Yoon Miran has a soft corner for Kim Taeho. That's preventing her from completely giving into Kwak In-Sik. She doesn't know that."

That... I gulp. A psychopath is a psychopath even after he dies. Kim Taeho and his children are living with a bomb that can blast anytime. I am scared. At least, the timekeeper is not a psychopath. He's quite rational.

"Kwak In-Sik also has an inkling that there's a part of her heart that is still human." The timekeeper looks at his hand. It's completely healed. This time, all of his powers are not locked. "He's waiting for a time to completely merge with Yoon Miran. When that happens, Yoon Miran will become a demon in a human form. She will become something like Kwak In-Sik who loves feeling the warmth of blood."

"You want me to take care of someone like that?" After knowing this, I want to stay as far as possible. I won't let Little Hae go to Hyun's house. It's better if Little Hae keeps a distance from Hyun.

"Yes." The timekeeper can almost read her mind by her expression. "You can't keep Hae away from Jae Hyun. Those two are meant to be together. In this lifetime, Wu Yixing found your aunt a lot earlier."

"Wu Yixing and my aunt?" I gape at him. "What does that got to do with my Little Hae?"

"The other timekeeper must have told you." The timekeeper smiles at me. "Little Hae has your aunt's soul. Jae Hyun has Wu Yixing's soul. Will you not save your future son-in-law?"

My future son-in-law is Wu Yixing. My daughter is my aunt. No, I can't accept this. No... Little Hae is Little Hae. Even if she has my aunt's soul, she's not my aunt. She's my flesh. She's Little Hae. Kwon Hae. That's her name. She's not Kwon Yoori.

"If you think like that, then Kang Si An is also not Li Jun. In each lifetime, he had a different body. Now, he might look like Li Jun. He even has memories of his previous lives, but Kang Si An is Kang Si An. He can never be Li Jun."

I hear Keeper say to me.

"Li Jun wasn't Li Jun either after I turned back time." I sigh and stare at the distance. "Why my life is so complicated?"

"You made this mess." The timekeeper laughs. "There's no time for regret. We are already here. We can only make things better."

He's watching me intently with Kang Si An's green eyes. I find it unnerving. "Aren't you like Kwak In-Sik too?"

"Of course, not. I have the deity's permission. I won't kill the innocent. Don't look at me that way. I didn't kill the 'you' now. You are living because of my decision. Let bygone be bygone. Do you see me using Kang Si An's body to go on a killing spree? I don't like feeling blood on my hand either."

His voice is light, but my heart is not. Everything is right if there's deity's permission. It's wrong if it isn't. Who is this tyrannical great deity?

"Tell me more." I have to do it anyway. "Little Hae won't like it if Jae Hyun and Ha-Neul die."

I don't want innocent people to die.

"Yoon Miran's soul is suffering. She's also an anomaly in this world. Keeping Kwak In-Sik's soul inside her is something that should have never happened." The timekeeper's voice turns heavy. "Take your time and think. I need to go now. My daily 100 minutes are over."

"Daily what?"
