Theatrical Regression Life

Episode 533

Seo Jang-hwa wondered how to react to this confusing situation.

“…I want to react, but I don’t know where to start or how to be surprised…” It felt

like a computer with a lot of files to process, unable to do anything and only buffering.

Seo Jang-hwa took a step away from the situation with a shocked expression and glanced at the mess in front of him. There was a lot she wanted to respond to.

First of all, the large tank at the back of the concert hall and the mermaids inside the tank were amazing, Park Da-hoon, who was trapped in it, was pitiful, Song In-myeong, who was rarely tired, was refreshing, the kindergarten students playing by poking Song In-myeong with their fingers were amazing, and Lee Jae-heon, who was clearly in the right place, was like a dog.

“Uh…”

But I couldn’t be surprised when all these things happened at the same time.

“I do not know.”

Seo Jang-hwa started to step on Song In-myeong, who was lying around like a wet rag.

Originally, he had a lot of feelings that he wanted to exhaust on this bastard, but now that the situation is like this, Seo Jang-hwa is left with only violent desires.

“evil! Argh! “Why the fuck are you hitting me?”

“I had so much to say to you, but I forgot it all, so give it a try first.”

“The fucking gorilla is still as strong as ever…! “Oh, don’t fucking hit me because I’m hurt there!”

“I should have shaken off that corn earlier.”

As Seo Jang-hwa began to do her job, her calmness spread to the other survivors as well.

“I’ll take the kids.”

“Uh, thanks.”

“Then good luck, sister.”

Park Da-young stole Choi Min-hong and Jang Seo-ah from the scene of blatant violence.

Choi Min-hong was a yellow sprout whose qualifications were questionable, so he did it because he was afraid he would be influenced negatively, and Jang Seo-ah was a child who had many wounds in a dirty society.

In fact, it is not advisable to show violence to kindergarten students for any reason, so Park Da-young took care of the two kindergarten students first.

“Um… I think it would be better for you two to get away for a bit first.”

Jeong Eun-woo smiled and put Lee Jae-heon and Jeong In-ho away.

“It seems like Manager Lee Jae-heon and our Assistant Manager Jeong In-ho are in a very confused situation, so how about taking a break for a while?”

“….”

“Fortunately, it will take quite a while for the glass box where student Park Da-hoon is trapped to fill up with all the water. “I think I’ll have time to rest for a bit.”

“…not our Inho.”

Jeong In-ho said that and sighed.

The very presence of Jung Eun-woo, who never misses a moment of provocation, was irritating, but the idea of taking some time to relax in such a chaotic situation was clearly the right argument.

They should have assessed the situation more calmly.

‘…If Lee Jae-heon’s condition is not this bad, I am the one who must take the lead among the survivors gathered now. ‘I shouldn’t have come here and lost my mind.’

Jeong In-ho was not suited to leading and comforting people, but he was not in a situation where he could fall behind. No matter how crazy it is, wouldn’t it be impossible to leave the leadership to Jung Eun-woo, Song In-myeong, or now Lee Jae-heon?

“Okay, first of all…”

Since Park Da-hoon is locked up, it can’t spread too much, but it still seemed necessary to organize the situation.

In-ho Jeong looked at Jae-heon Lee again.

“…I am your junior… Manager.”

“…I guess it’s probably not right?”

“Why are you calling me junior?”

“That face…”

Lee Jae-heon slowly observed Jeong In-ho with his pale, cold gray eyes.

He immediately smiled and spoke in a teasing tone.

“You are my junior, right?”

I had no idea what thoughts were going through that head.

“So… I think you’ve mistaken me for someone who looks like me, but I’m not the manager’s junior. “To begin with, there was no one the manager could call ‘junior’, so I don’t know who he is referring to now.”

“weird. “Have you forgotten me?”

“Aren’t you just ignoring what I say now?”

“But how can you forget me? “You hated me, you said I was a criminal.”

“No…”

Jeong In-ho felt a little mortified.

“Would I have gone crazy and told my heavenly manager that you look like a criminal…? Are you mistaking me for someone else? “I’m not the kind of person who hates people just because of what they look like.”

“So you’re the main character?”

“….”

That was… correct.

I don’t know why the story about the ‘main character’ suddenly came out, but if the ‘main character’ that Lee Jae-heon talks about is the secret world that Jung In-ho knows, then that is.

“…Perhaps not so?”

“So are you going to kill me?”

“Why on earth does the story turn out like that?”

“You are the main character, why don’t you kill me?”

“…?”

“?”

Jeong In-ho became confused.

“What on earth am I talking to this person right now?…”

Then Jeong Eun-woo, who had been waiting like air next to him, intervened.

“As far as I know, Manager Lee Jae-heon has no personal relationship where he calls me ‘junior.’”

“Do you think it will change anything if we speak respectfully now?”

“He didn’t like being friendly, so I changed my tone of voice. And the fact that Manager Lee Jae-heon reacts in such a way when no one calls him ‘junior’ seems to indicate that there is an additional element mixed in with the existing Manager Lee Jae-heon.”

“….”

“I heard that the underworld is a space with a very unique concept. “In a world where abstract concepts can have practical effects, wouldn’t it be possible to dig into a person’s brain and add additional elements while they are traumatized and confused?”

Jeong In-ho, who was staring at Jeong Eun-woo, smiled a round smile that looked exactly like him.

“You’re really good at your job.”

“I am very glad to hear you say that. “Would it have been helpful?”

“From now on, live like a machine, not a human. “Did you know?”

“It is my pleasure.”

“You son of a bitch.”

It was a historic moment when the ‘bastard’ was added to Jeong In-ho’s inner self.

“It is very unpleasant to be persuaded that something is needlessly true, but… I think it is a credible argument. “I think it’s definitely true that the manager had ‘additional elements’ mixed in.”

And there was a high probability that it would be Hong Kyung-jun’s ‘Shooter.’

‘Recently, Ha Seong-yoon also said that he did not see the ghost police officer near Lee Jae-heon. It would be more correct to say that he stayed hidden inside Lee Jae-heon the whole time and then took advantage of the man’s mental confusion to possess him in some way.’

Then I understood who the ‘junior’ Jaeheon Lee was talking about was.

“Do you know Hong Gyeong-jun?”

Jaeheon Lee shook his head in response to Inho Jeong’s question.

“Hong Gyeong-jun….”

“Do you know? “I think I understand.”

“Of course I know.”

Jaeheon Lee nodded willingly.

‘Isn’t he the detective who appears in the novel written by Mana?’

And Jeong In-ho was convinced by Lee Jae-heon’s words.

Currently, Lee Jae-heon is mixed with Hong Gyeong-jun’s shooter, and because of that, the current Lee Jae-heon is confusing Jeong In-ho and Hong Gyeong-jun.

“…hmm.”

Kuuk.

Jeong In-ho’s fist gained strength.

‘I feel bad.’

I didn’t say it out loud because it was a childish thought.

However, if Lee Jae-heon was completely out of his mind, I could understand it to some extent. In the eyes of crazy Lee Jae-heon, he may have confused Jung In-ho and Hong Kyung-jun because they had some things in common.

“My name is Jeong In-ho.”

“Have you changed your name?”

“Do you have a name recognition disorder rather than a facial recognition disorder? How many times did I say I was Jung In-ho earlier? “I’m not your junior, I’m your colleague.”

“Isn’t that what it is?”

“Of course, that’s what it is, but the tone is different. “Don’t you understand what I’m saying now?”

“Anyway, you’re not my junior?”

“That’s…”

Jeong In-ho, who was about to say no, thought for a moment and then smiled brightly.

“you’re right.”

“I heard you said no.”

“I am also the manager’s junior. “It’s okay.”

Anyway, I guess I’ll have to face this damn confusion a few more times in the future, so it seemed much more convenient to acknowledge Lee Jae-heon’s words than to deny it every time.

And there was also Jeong In-ho’s personal selfishness here.

‘Fuck you, Hong Gyeongjun.’

Anyway, that was it.

“Please feel free to call me.”

Jaeheon Lee’s face brightened at that.

“Yes, junior. I thought it was you too. “If you think about it carefully, you remember me, right?”

“Haha…”

“Did you just forget for a moment? Well, it’s been a while since we broke up due to an unfortunate accident, so it might be confusing for a moment. “It’s been a really long time since we had a conversation like this.”

“ha ha ha.”

Jeong In-ho’s confidence became even stronger.

‘Yes, it must have been a long time since we met. ‘I heard that Hong Gyeong-jun’s gunner died quite a long time ago.’

Park Da-young came to the side of Jeong In-ho, who was drawing a conclusion.

“…So how is the situation going now? “Are you sure you’re okay now?”

“It doesn’t seem like a good situation at all, but I think I can roughly explain how it works.”

“What is it?”

“In many ways, it seems like a miraculous combination of bad news.”

In Jeong In-ho’s opinion, the reason why Lee Jae-heon was like this right now seemed to be a complex reason.

First of all, there is a high possibility that a ghost police officer was parasitic inside Lee Jae-heon even before entering this secret world.

And that may be one of the reasons why Lee Jae-heon has been acting like a ghost cop recently. Because of the powerful parasite, he became more sly and playful.

And Lee Jae-heon’s spirit, who came to the secret world, collapsed greatly. This aquarium environment makes Lee Jae-heon particularly vulnerable, so his spirit is easily broken, and the ghost police who took advantage of that gap began to exercise real influence inside Lee Jae-heon.

Jeong In-ho, who explained up to that point, nodded and continued speaking.

“There is a high probability that this appearance is the result of that….”

Park Da-young asked, crumpling her face.

“Then why don’t we remember?”

“…Isn’t it something like dissociative amnesia caused by a major psychological trauma?”

“It’s not impossible, but I can’t say for sure that it’s yes or no. “For these medical aspects, you really need a doctor.”

“That guy is a surgeon, so he doesn’t know much about the brain, right?”

“You probably know better than us.”

“That too.”

Anyway, what was certain was that the current Lee Jae-heon was truly crazy at a historic level.

“Otherwise, how could they have completely forgotten about us?”

Perhaps the reason why Director Lee Jae-heon’s memories have returned to the past is also because the ghost police had a large stake.

Since there are two minds in one person’s body, perhaps the minds themselves have returned to the time period that both people commonly remember. This is the time when the ghost policeman had not yet died and Lee Jae-heon was enduring the underworld together.

As a result, Lee Jae-heon is not the ‘Chief’ they knew, nor is he a complete ‘ghost cop’, and even in the past few months… Or, he lost more of his memories.

“….”

“….”

People can really go this crazy.

Jeong In-ho and Park Da-young felt mild irritation.

“Why is it so damn….”

“So why is it so comprehensive and from all directions?”

Anyway, let me tell you in advance, the current situation was not Lee Jae-heon’s fault.

Lee Jae-heon’s only crime was to create a bad atmosphere by suffering from a sacrificial disease, and even more so, he seemed not to be responsible for creating the current situation.

And in a similar vein, there was something about the two that made me feel uncomfortable.

“It was clear earlier…”

Park Da-young began carefully.

“Didn’t you ask me if you wanted to kill me?”

“…It did.”

Lee Jae-heon called Jung In-ho ‘junior’ and called him ‘main character’ and asked him if he wanted to kill him. Lee Jae-heon was clearly expecting Jung In-ho to kill him.

Even if that was the reason he went crazy, why did he even think like that?

Hong Gyeong-jun would never have tried to kill his shooter…

“….”

Maybe

.

“…The ‘main character’….”

Lee Jae-heon once said, ‘Shouldn’t the main character of the previous generation die?’

Did that mean that Jung In-ho had to kill Lee Jae-heon?
