Theatrical Regression Life

Episode 530

The certification team was still in the ‘feeding experience corner’.

A catastrophe occurred when Jung Eun-woo safely got his license and escaped the pond, but then ran into Jung In-ho and caused a conflict, but this was not as terrible a situation as Park Da-young thought.

‘We don’t fight as much as I thought.’

Park Da-young was surprised by Jung In-ho’s calm reaction.

Of course, it was no different than calmly extending his middle finger, but in any case, it was a much calmer reaction than suddenly grabbing his collar and beating him up with double insults.

“How is our Inho doing these days?”

“Who are you to ask me such a question? “Do you know me?”

“You’re so upset. “I grew up so much knowing that I would do such cute things.”

“Haha, are you crazy?”

It seemed like Jeong In-ho decided to just treat Jeong Eun-woo as a stranger.

Jung In-ho’s eyes looking at Jung Eun-woo were particularly black and shiny, and it seemed like he was thinking about ‘what can I do to fix that?’… Anyway, rather than getting angry at Jung Eun-woo, Jung In-ho seemed to be trying to break the current situation. There seemed to be more focus.

“So Dayoung, how far has the situation progressed now?”

“Oh yes… So…”

Therefore, Park Da-young also decided to pay no attention to this complicated Jeong family situation.

“Jung Eun-woo here went into the pond and even got a scuba diving license.”

“So what should we do now?”

“Now I have to find a wetsuit. But the problem is that no one knows exactly where the wetsuit is stored. “I had no clue other than that it was hidden somewhere in this aquarium.”

“okay?”

Jeong In-ho, who thought for a moment, continued.

“…Even though it’s hidden somewhere, we can narrow it down. “Dayoung, if the ‘wetsuit’ you’re talking about is what we normally think of, it would be quite large, but there is no suitable place to hide a wetsuit of that size in the hallway connecting the theme zone.”

“Or maybe the wetsuit isn’t as big as we think. In that case, can’t you hide it anywhere? “You can even hide it in a fish tank in the hallway.”

“Then I think we can summarize it into two cases. Because it is an ordinary-sized wetsuit, it is either hidden in a theme zone with many geographical features, or because it is small enough to fit in the hand, it is really hidden somewhere in a fish tank in the hallway…” Jung Eun-woo

interjected.

“It’s a large wetsuit, but it’s transparent so there’s a chance it won’t be visible.”

“Who are you?”

“Inho is really angry. However, since I am the one who obtained the scuba diving certification, it will be difficult for Inho to plan the future without me.”

“You’re really annoying.”

“If you tease me, Inho will get his license.”

“What should I do?”

Jeong Eun-woo had a happy look on his face, as if he was very happy with his nephew’s reaction. It was as if he was enjoying the reaction of a 5-year-old child who whined when his soft cheek was pressed.

Seo Jang-hwa, who was watching the amazing scene with disgusted eyes, also spoke.

“Isn’t the condition ‘hidden somewhere in the aquarium’ too broad in the first place? Aren’t there some other rules? Why is there such a thing as a hidden world? Instead of asking you to solve a riddle that was too absurd… I think most people said they would give you some kind of hint…”

At those words, something occurred to Park Da-young.

“…Stamp map….”

“Huh? map?”

“There was a stamped map that we each received when we stopped by a real-life aquarium. You know, when you stop by an amusement park or an event venue, they give you a prize saying, ‘If you collect all the stamps, you’ll get a prize.’ There might be an empty space for stamps.”

“Oh, did you give me something like that here? “I didn’t know.”

When Lee Jae-heon led the survivors to the aquarium, Seo Jang-hwa, who had been busy farming at the time, did not know this story.

“So why that map?”

“I thought there might be a hint there?”

Park Da-young, who was not the final survivor, said that although she no longer knows it, Song In-myeong found out the existence of Morse code, which was a hint when crossing the ‘Friends by the Stream’, from Choi Min-hong’s dojo map.

“What if there were hints in each of the other theme zones like that?”

Jung Eun-woo listened to Park Da-young’s hypothesis with an interesting look on his face.

“It’s a funny story. “It’s a dojo map… I happen to have one.”

“I beg your pardon?”

“If you think about it, today I…”

Jeong Eun-woo tilted his head.

“Is it today? Or has it already been a day? Anyway, on the day I visited this aquarium in reality, I ended up in a different world. “The staff gave me a dojo map, so I kept it.”

“Why are you saying that now?”

“It would be too cliché to say that you didn’t ask, so I’ll say something else. “I didn’t tell you because I didn’t think it would be of any help.”

After saying that, Eunwoo Jeong took out a map neatly folded into a square from his pants pocket. Even though Jeong Eun-woo had just gone in and out of the water, the map was not wet.

He unfolded a map and showed it to the survivors.

“You’ll see…”

“…There’s not much of a hint.”

The map that Eunwoo Jeong took out was the same as the one that Dayoung Park remembered from the Dreamcatcher Aquarium.

So it was strange.

“…There are no hints written like Minhong’s.”

Choi Min-hong’s map clearly had a very small hint on how to cross the ‘Friends by the Stream’. But Jeong Eun-woo’s guidance was nothing like that. Dayoung Park seemed to know where the difference came from.

“Does this only give hints about the theme zone that has the stamp?”

“After hearing what student Dayoung Park said, I was thinking maybe that was the case.”

“Then it’s a bit difficult…”

Park Da-young had never seen Choi Min-hong’s map, but she remembered that the child had stamped all the theme zones. If we got a hint for ‘Friends by the Stream’ from Choi Min-hong’s map in the last episode, we didn’t know if we could find other hints there as well.

“As far as I remember, the only people who completed this map were Minhong and Mr. Minhong.”

And these two people were in the final theme zone, the concert hall.

“Now that I think about it, it’s more likely that he went into a souvenir shop and sold his map. So, the only hint left is Minhong’s map, so are we now in a situation where we have to go back to an uncertain performance venue to find out where the wetsuits are…?”

“I don’t think it would be that bad to go back and check the situation at the concert hall by now. “I don’t know if writer Song In-myeong properly stopped Manager Lee Jae-heon, who was out of his mind.”

“That’s right.”

When Park Da-young nodded, Seo Jang-hwa asked in confusion.

“…What did I just hear? Who in my right mind should Song In-myeong stop? “Is this a subject and predicate that can be included in one sentence?”

Jeong In-ho also had similar feelings.

“Song In-myeong is trying to stop the manager? “How did such a terrible situation happen…”

“Ah, didn’t you hear the explanation from Detective Hong Gyeong-jun?”

“No, I heard the explanation, but first of all, don’t be friendly towards me, but try to maintain a public attitude and explain it properly. “Why on earth did this terrible situation happen where the manager was protected by Song In-myeong?”

“Director Lee Jae-heon is in a more sane situation than writer Song In-myeong, so stop.”

“But you left them together?”

Park Da-young closed her eyes tightly at Jung In-ho’s reaction of complete disbelief.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I was so weak…”

“It’s not Dayoung’s fault. “This is all because of bad adults here who start with Jeong and end with Woo.”

Jeong Eun-woo smiled happily at the sight of Park Da-young and Jeong In-ho.

“We get along really well.”

“Isn’t it?”

“no.”

Park Da-young and Jeong In-ho looked with straight faces as if they were drawing a picture.

The two were clearly allies, but they were not clearly close friends either. They always hoped there would be a reasonable distance between them.

Eunwoo Jeong even looked at him as if he was cute.

“Yeah, I guess so.”

“Anyway, I guess we’ve decided what we should do now, is that correct?”

Seo Jang-hwa sighed and affirmed Jeong In-ho’s words.

“It doesn’t mean you have to go to the concert hall first.”

It was an annoying tone, but Seo Jang-hwa had already relaxed his neck. A harsh, crackling sound came from her throat.

“Mr. Ha, meeting Song In-myeong and this bastard like this… Ah… I’m not mentally ready yet…”

Jeong In-ho smiled warmly.

“I think my body, but not my mind, is already ready.”

“Don’t you know reflexes? Don’t you know that if you hit your knee with a hammer, it bounces back? “I heard that when people get angry, their fists go out, which is a very normal and natural physiological phenomenon?”

“Let’s say so.”

Park Da-young thought to herself as she looked at Jeong In-ho’s smile.

‘It is true that Jeong Eun-woo and his uncle have a real relationship.’

I won’t say it because I know people will hate it if I say it out loud, but the warm smiles of Jeong Eun-woo and Jeong In-ho are very similar.

Even though their faces looked quite different, seeing the same expression made it clear that they were related by blood.

“….”

To be honest, it was a bit disgusting.

What on earth was going on in that damn Jeong family? Jeong Eun-woo and Jeong In-ho both had very round and very dark eyes. It looked like a black glass bead, so I felt a bit out of place.

“Uh-huh…”

“What kind of reaction is that?”

“People can take a breather.”

“I’m asking about your intentions.”

“Where is the intention in sighing?”

It was when Park Da-young was arguing with Jung In-ho.

“hmm.”

Eunwoo Jeong looked at the survivors with an expression that said he had something to say.

Something was ominous.

“…What is it?”

“It’s nothing special.”

“Main subject.”

“I feel like I need to run away.”

“….”

Jeong In-ho slowly turned his head and looked towards the pond.

The surface of the water was shaking loudly as if something huge was rising from within.

“…Why are you saying this now?”

“I told you not to ask.”

“Do you want to die?”

“Ahahahaha…!”

Jung Eun-woo laughed as if he was really happy, and he looked like a truly crazy person. It was the moment when it became clear that Jung Eun-woo was 100% enjoying Jung In-ho’s reaction.

And then,

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh -!!

■■■■■■■….

“Wow.”

A large monster appeared as it waded through the pond water.

“The dog is ugly.”

As Seo Jang-hwa said, it was an ugly monster.

Immediately, Jung Eun-woo picked up Park Da-young, and the survivors began to jump, including everyone.

“…Sibaal!! “You should have told me in advance that something like that would come out!!”

“How do I know that and tell you in advance? Of course I knew. Instead of giving me an ear, I asked them to wait a little longer and then come out.”

“You are a real dog!”

Seo Jang-hwa seemed to want to grab Jeong Eun-woo by the collar, but unfortunately or fortunately, he was in no position to do so. In the end, Seo Jang-hwa managed to calm himself down with Park Da-young, who was being held by Jung Eun-woo, holding his collar instead.

And then back again to the ‘Amazon of the world’.

“….”

“…is it true that we can survive here?”

“I don’t think it’s impossible.”

“Teacher Jeong Eun-woo, you’d better shut up.”

“Why?”

“Every time I open my mouth, my stomach turns.”

The survivors were hiding from the numerous monsters roaming around looking for us.

“….”

Why is life so difficult?

Jeong In-ho covered his face with both hands because he was embarrassed about his uncle.

* * *

Meanwhile.

“Uh…”

Kim Ki-jeong found a ring rolling around as if it were alive.

“What is this?”

“Wow, the ring in the other side of the world also moves.”

“What kind of thought was this made with?”

Han Do-yoon caught the ring that was running away in fear and looked inside it.

“…Uh….”

“Is there something written on the ring?”

“…It says don’t use it for too long.”

“I don’t know what it is, but it looks like a dangerous ring, so don’t even think about wearing it on your finger.”

“I’ll put it in my pocket for now. I might need to use it later.”

Han Do-yoon put the ring in his pants pocket.

So he didn’t notice that ‘wet suit’ was written on the outside of the ring.
