Men’s Comprehensive Welfare Center Vice Minister’s Office.
Palak, palak.
Inside the Vice Minister’s office, all I could hear was the sound of Hee-je flipping papers.
Sitting in her seat of honor, she silently examines the documents brought by her deputy minister with an expressionless face.
Gulp.
The vice minister silently watches Hee-jae like that.
She involuntarily swallowed her saliva in the midst of her tense tension.
The Vice Minister just watched Hee-je, who was concentrating on the paperwork, holding her breath in the midst of her nervousness.
How much time has passed.
After concentrating on the documents for a while, I finally opened her mouth.
“There are a few things I want to ask you.”
“Yes! Ask me anything!”
Hee-je slowly took her eyes off her papers and looked at her vice-minister.
“Is this man biologically male?”
“…… Yes?”
At the completely unexpected question, the vice minister turned into a bewildered face, but he answered with infinite sincerity.
“Uh… That is. If you look at the medical records, you’ll see that it’s really male. There was no problem in the health checkup, and it is definitely a male.”
“That’s right. Hmmm, haven’t you checked it yourself?”

“Yes, yes?!”
The vice minister looked at her in surprise at her question of Hee-je.
Then she didn’t know how to answer, so she hurriedly searched in her head for the words to come out.
“That, there, that, that. Confirmation is, where and what you are talking about.”
“Huh, it was just a joke. To lighten the mood.”
“Ah, eh. hahahaha. It was a joke, a joke. Ha ha ha.”
Following Hee-jae, who laughed as if it were a joke, the vice minister smiled awkwardly and laughed as well.
It was a very absurd joke, but Hee-jae’s joke seemed to ease the cold atmosphere in the vice minister’s office a little.
Thanks to that, the Vice Minister felt relieved.
Fortunately, Hee-je’s anger seems to have been relieved.
However, the Vice Minister did not know.
Hee-jae’s next question would make the Vice Minister’s mind even more disturbed.
“Hmm, but this is a bit suspicious.”
“Yes? Are you suspicious?”
“Here, this part.”
Hee-je unfolded the documents she was holding and showed them to her vice minister. The document in Hee-je’s hand was none other than Jin-hyo’s life record from the year before last.
“Everything is good, but why is the May record missing?”
“Hup──.”
At Hee-je’s point, the vice minister breathed in vain.
After sneakily watching the Vice Minister’s reaction, Hee-je nodded as if he knew everything.
“Oh, you deleted it on purpose.”
“──!”
“It is clear that the erased parts here were written about things that should not be known to the outside world. It’s such a big thing that it could even shake your position.”
The Vice Minister had goosebumps all over his body.
At Hee-je’s words, as if he had penetrated his heart.
The deputy minister’s back was already drenched with cold sweat, and his chin automatically trembled in shock.
“I won’t criticize you. So will you listen to me?”
Hee-je looked at the Vice Minister’s behavior and continued talking with a mocking smile.
“What the hell happened that day?”
Hee-jae’s eyes were like those of a predator, shining brightly.
The Vice Minister’s heart was eventually broken by that overwhelming momentum.
She couldn’t help but explain with her trembling mouth.
She is her own stain that she so longs to hide,
Her own weakness. Her own private parts.
What should never happen in a male shelter,
This is the whole story of the attempted kidnapping case.
◈◈◈
“That… over there, so.”
“… ….”
I just silently glared at the counselor who didn’t listen to me at all.
In my eyes, the counselor looked very embarrassed. He couldn’t speak easily, and he couldn’t move on.
Before he knew it, sweat began to form on his forehead. Soon, he took a towel from the inside pocket of his suit and held it, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
The counselor, who had been silently wiping his sweat for a long time, suddenly lowered his head.
“What… radish….”
“?”
The counselor lowered his head and started muttering something in a low voice.
What is it?
I just looked at him with a puzzled face at the counselor’s mysterious behavior.
I could see the counselor’s shoulders trembling slightly.
Ah, this can’t be.
No way?
“It’s a bunch! I can’t do it!”
The counselor raised her head while shouting that.
Tears welled up in the eyes of the counselor.
“What the hell! This kid!”
“Hey? Counselor? Uh.”
Mistress, I almost got cursed at for nurturing.
Gross tears of a middle-aged man.
Oh, I got rid of my eyes properly.
The counselor turned his head towards the magic mirror and began shouting, raising his voice as if complaining.
“Leaving aside things that don’t make sense! This child!
It’s so scary!”
“…… Yes?”
Are you afraid of me?
Looks like you haven’t seen anything really scary.
Should I just show you a magic that makes the pencil disappear?
“Too much! Scary! Black!
It’s like thinking! As well as talking!
It’s too scary! And that kid! Ugh, black!”
The counselor burst into tears.
“Your eyes are so scary! Aww!”
“Oh, please.”
A counselor who wipes his eyes with a handkerchief and cries.
It was truly horrifying to see a grown man crying with a whooshing sound, not a whimper.
It was too disgusting to open my eyes and look at it, so I couldn’t stand it and covered my eyes with my hands.
Ah, why are you doing this to me?
No, what’s wrong with the old man who ate like that?
At most, it’s not like I’m crying because I’m scared of a kid like me staring at me and talking a little rudely.
Unable to understand at all, I just shook my head.
The time when my head was about to hurt,
As the only exit from the counseling room opened, two women rushed inside.
“Yes, Counselor! Are you okay?!”
“Huh, black. I’m so scared Black.”
“It’s okay. Because we are here.”
“Huh, black. aaang.”
The two women who approached the counselor did not know what to do and only rolled their feet.
Please, can’t I just take you out?
Ah, you weren’t allowed to touch men without their permission.
Oh, really. There is nothing going on.
I couldn’t help but just look at the counselor with a pathetic expression.
After crying for a long time, the counselor ran out of the counseling room with her handkerchief covering her face.
The two women hurriedly followed the counselor out of the counseling room with troubled faces.
What a spectacle. It’s a spectacle.
But wait a minute.
“What? What about my consultation review?”
I muttered to myself when I noticed that the results of the consultation screening had not come out.
No hey! Come back right away!
I have to get out!
At least you don’t have to tell us whether or not you’re judged!
This is dereliction of duty, dereliction of duty!
What should I do now?
Shall we go out and apologize to the counselor?
If it doesn’t work, do I have to drag it back in?
Just as I was thinking about what to do, the door to the counseling room opened again.
Kkeik, rattle.
Then a woman entered the counseling room.
She was a very pretty woman.
Hmm, what should I say?
Should I say it’s like an aristocrat? She didn’t just dress up fancy, but she was a woman who felt very noble and old-fashioned.
Without exaggeration, her beauty was comparable to that of her mother.
It felt like the eyes that had just been abandoned by the terrible sight were being cleansed.
The woman who entered the counseling room met her eyes with mine and greeted me with a slight smile.
“Hello, Mr. Jinhyo.”
“Ah, yes hello.”
“There was a bit of a commotion. Really sorry.”
The woman slowly approached me, who was sitting in her chair, keeping her smile.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Lee Je-hee, who was invited as a special judge today.”
She introduced herself as Special Examiner Lee Jae-hee and held out her hand as if to shake my hand.
I was moved by the examiner’s hands.
Wow, how many ordinary greetings is this?
I was delighted to jump up from my seat and grab the judge’s hand with a smile.
“Hello! Nice to meet you too.”
When I held my hand and shook it up and down lightly, the judge’s eyebrows twitched once.
Oh. Maybe the greeting was wrong?
Since it’s been such a long time since I said an ordinary greeting, did I make a mistake? Or is the handshake in this world different from the way I knew it?
However, as if my worries were simply unfounded, the examiner smiled and opened his mouth.
“As I’ve heard, you are a wonderful person.”
“Ayu, that’s amazing. What am i
Embarrassed by the sudden praise, I replied with a wave of my hand.
But the examiner shook his head and said.
“No. You know that a man can shake hands like this. That’s great.”
… ….
Was it commendable for a man to shake hands?
Is this really that great?
“hehehe, you look like you don’t know. It’s really fun.”
“Ah, does my expression show so much?”
“I didn’t mean it in a bad way. Rather, I think it’s good. Now, shall we start the consultation again?”
At the words of the examiner, I nodded and sat down again.
The examiner went to the seat where the male counselor was sitting and immediately brought up the main topic.
“First of all, I heard Jinhyo’s story well outside.”
At the words of the examiner, I slightly turned my eyes to look at the magic mirror.
As expected, other people over the magic mirror were listening here. Will your mother be there too?
“In my short opinion, I think Jinhyo can live outside the shelter without any problems.”
Oh! After all, a special judge!
I never thought I could communicate so easily.
Besides, I never dreamed that you would consent so neatly.
“Really? Thank you.”
I bowed my head at the positive reviewer’s comment and expressed my gratitude.
“Huh, no. But just, I have a few questions, can you answer them?”
“Uh… If only I could answer.”
“Thank you. First of all, the first question.”
The examiner raised his black but pinned hand and continued his words.
“First, Jinhyo, why do you want to go out of the shelter?”
It was a very satisfying question.
Previously, the counselor explained to me why going to a shelter would be bad.
Actually, I didn’t ask why I wanted to go out, and I didn’t even wonder. That was my biggest complaint.
The special examiner is also different.
I answered the question of the examiner, who was clearly different from the counselor, with admiration in my heart.
“Because life at the shelter is terrible.”
“Pu-huh.”
Was my answer too unexpected?
The examiner could not hold back the sudden burst of laughter and covered his mouth with a light laugh.
“Kuhm. Big. Sorry.”
“No. Are you okay.”
“Excuse me. Hmmm. Are you saying that’s terrible?”
“Yes, it is awful.”
I said with an exaggerated frown.
The examiner smiled and asked if my expression was interesting.
“What were you afraid of?”
“I always spend the same daily life at the same time, in the same space.”
“Well, definitely.”
The examiner nodded once as if he understood what I was saying.
The examiner nodded and immediately threw a question at me.
“It must be boring enough. But the shelter is safe, right?”
“Mmm.”
“To be honest. If you think about safety, I think you have to endure a boring life to some extent.”
“Of course it could be. But, Judge.”
I looked straight into the eyes of the examiner and continued.
“Does the examiner not go outside and stay at home on rainy days?”
“…… Yes? What do you mean?”
“Literally. Do you just stay at home on rainy days?”
“… No. It’s not just in the house.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Why? It’s a big deal when it rains.”
“Why is that such a big deal?”
“You can catch a cold, and if the cold gets worse, it can spread to pneumonia and kill you. Are you still going out?”
As if my words were absurd, the examiner looked at me with a disappointed expression and replied.
“It’s not like everyone gets a cold just by getting a little bit of rain, but the analogy is too extreme. Besides, do you have an umbrella? The premise that it rains just because it rains is strange.”
“Yes, that’s right. That’s what I mean.”
“Yes?”
I continued the explanation with a smile.
“Why are shelters safe for men?”
“That’s right, there are a lot of women outside the shelter.”
“What’s wrong with having a lot of women?”
“Yes, women are dangerous to men.”
“Why is that dangerous?”
“You can do bad things to men, and in the worst case, you can harm them—
…… Ah.”
The examiner let out a small exclamation as if he understood my intention. And she looked at me with an expression of admiration.
I smiled and went on.
“Just because there are a lot of women doesn’t mean it is unconditionally dangerous, but you are looking at the situation too extreme.”
I quoted the answer the examiner gave me, changed it a bit, and then answered.
“Besides, I have a family, and I will have bodyguards supported by the government. The premise that you will definitely be in danger is strange.”
“Ha-ha-ha!”
The examiner laughed happily with an expression that he had eaten a shot.
“Ha ha ha! Okay. Certainly, there is no bird that does not fly because it is afraid of falling.”
“Wow, that’s a great metaphor. And thank you for understanding.”
“No. Hey, this Thanks to Jinhyo, I learned a big realization. Thank you.”
“Nothing.”
Looking at the judge’s reaction, it seemed that my thoughts were fully conveyed.
Since I was smiling with satisfaction, the examiner also looked at me with a soft smile.
“Then, the second question.”
The examiner raised his index and middle fingers this time and asked me a question.
“What do you like to do when you go outside?”
“Uh… ….”
I thought carefully about the examiner’s question.
There are many things I want to do.
However, the common sense of this world was so different from mine that I couldn’t figure out how far it was permissible.
I closed my eyes, gently crossed my arms, tilted my head to one side, and thought for a moment.
Hmm, how should I answer?
Roughly organizing my thoughts, I opened my closed eyes and looked at the warden.
Wait a minute, but I think the warden was looking at me with a strange expression. Is it because of the mood?
“To be honest, I don’t know.”
“Hmm? Don’t you know?”
“Because I don’t know what is outside the shelter or how to live.”
“Ah.”
The examiner looked at me with a sorry expression.
Then, as if he had made a big mistake, he opened his mouth with a face full of regret.
“Well, this question… pretend it didn’t exist I am very sorry.”
“Ahahahaha, no.”
“Then, the last question.”
This time, the examiner asked a question while raising his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger.
“What do you think about marriage between a man and a woman?”
“…… Yes?”
I was speechless at the examiner’s question.
Because it was a problem I had never thought about since I was born in this world.
Marriage… It’s a marriage
It’s still a very distant story for me.
After hesitantly deciding how to answer, the examiner opened his mouth with a bitter smile.
“As expected… Jinhyo seems to have a negative view of marriage as well.”
“Yes? No, that’s….”
“No. I knew it was very rude to ask a man such a question.”
The examiner bowed his head with a firm expression.
“For you to ask such an rude question even though you know it is rude. I am so sorry.”
“No! It was absolutely not rude! So please keep your head up!”
I answered with a wave of my hand.
“It was because I had never seriously thought about marriage.”
“Sure, are you going?”
“Yes, it is. And um…….
Certainly, when I grow up, I will meet a good person and get married, right?”
“…… ! What did you say now?
Are you going to get married?”
The examiner raised his head and asked.
Huh? What did i say wrong
“Yes? Yes. You’ll probably get married, right?”
“Are you serious about that? Are you sure you want to get married?”
“Yes, and besides, if you get married.”
Mmm, yes.
Besides, no matter what marriage is.
“Shouldn’t we marry after dating?”
“… ….”
Isn’t love marriage the best?
When I answered that, the examiner looked at me with a surprised expression as if it was nonsense.
Huh? Weird.
Could it be that the number of men in this world is so small that love marriage is a very unusual case?
─ Dada Dada!
Quaang!
“Son! What does that mean! Marriage!”
“Wow! Mother?”
The door to the counseling room opened with a crashing momentum, and her mother hurriedly came inside.
She shouted, then she shot towards me and grabbed me by the shoulder.
“Marriage! Nonsense!”
“Yes? Uh, mother? It’s nonsense, what—”
“Whoever wants! Mom will never allow it! Even if dirt gets in her mother’s eyes, no way!”
Dirt in your eyes, mother.
….
No, more than that, there was a saying like that in this world too.
“The son should live with his mother for the rest of his life! What are you talking about!”
“Mother?! Are you telling me that she wants to live alone for the rest of her life?!”
“Why does my son live alone! I have to live with my mother and her family!”
My mother held me tightly in her arms and proudly declared,
“My son will never get married! Okay?!”
Ah, Mom! Please!
And Judge, why are you looking at me with such an ecstatic face? Awfully.
‘Ah, finally, I finally found it.’
