Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

"You are not?" he asked, raising one of his eyebrows. Lee Soohyun's eyes did not miss how there was no surprise on his face after hearing those words from her and assumed that he had doubt about this beforehand. Letting out a chuckle, Soohyun voiced out, "Well, you are like your brother; you don't appear to be surprised as well. Since I am not Jiwoo, I do not have any grievances towards you, but you really did that poor girl dirty. Although she was foolish and reckless, she did not deserve all of that." Upon hearing those words from Lee Soohyun, a dark look appeared in Eunwoo's eyes, and she stared down at the ground. Soohyun was unable to guess what he was thinking at this month. Letting out a sigh, Eunwoo voiced out, "I just wish I get a chance to make up about everything with her. Although she had a rotten character, she was involved with the game even when she was innocent." "Wow! I am surprised that you can even feel guilt about the entire thing. I wish for the same thing as well. You really need to pay for what you have done to Jiwoo, but that is none of my business," she vocalised. Before Ahn Eunwoo was able to make a retort to those words of Soohyun, the door to the room opened, and Jeon Minji walked into the bedroom. It seemed that the conversation between the two needed to be stopped now. °°° As the two of them walked through the garden out of the building, she raised her head to look at the starless sky above her head. Her heart beat rapidly within her c.h.e.s.t, and she found herself getting anxious. Even though she had discovered an important piece of information, it did not stop herself from worrying about how everything will be turning out. There was no reassurance that her plan will be going smoothly. Moreover, without Han Minhyun beside her and his words, she felt more unconfident. Realizing the impact Minhyun had on her, a soft chuckle left her mouth. "What are you chuckling about? It seems creepy," Kwangsoo commented. "I have just found an important piece of news today, and now, I will be having a promotion. You can stay here at the institution while I will be going to the outside World in order to complete that. The victory is really close to us; I can feel this," Soohyun voiced out, "I am just afraid that it will be coming at the cost of something." A sigh left her mouth while she lowered her line of sight to look at the ground.  "We can't look back to worry about that. We just have to keep going forward. After all, we have no options. Any way, what is that plan of yours?" Kwangsoo stated. "Can you contact Yejoon? We will be needing his help with this since you have no whatsoever connections with people on the surface," Soohyun spoke out. "That's offensive!" he exclaimed, "I have his phone number. He had given it to me before I left the Underworld, but I don't have that thing called phone. Moreover, he is at the Underworld; it would not be possible to contact him." His words caused Soohyun to come up to a realization, and she voiced out, "That's right; he is at the Underworld due to all that checking." "What are you going to do now?" he questioned. "There is only one person, who is able to help us at this moment," Soohyun vocalised, "Butler Shin— he might have connections on the surface. I can contact him through Junghyun. I have gotten that boy's number once." Lee Soohyun then recalled on what happened with Junghyun before they have left for the Underworld and wondered how the atmosphere between the two of them will be now.  Surely, there would be an awkwardness between the two of them, and it would not be similar to the past. "Right! That's a good idea. That old man has lots of power on the surface," Kwangsoo vocalised, "But I did not expect that Junghyun to have a phone. He is as much as outdated as us." "Aish! This is not the time to discuss about this. Fortunately, my phone had some amount of charge. Let's call them for now," Soohyun stated. "At here? Let's go somewhere more secluded to make that call. Follow me! I know the perfect place for it," he vocalised. °°° "Really? This forest?" Soohyun questioned, shotting him a look of disbelief. Passing through countless trees and vines caused a mess out of Soohyun's hair, and scratches appeared all over her body. Although the marks have disappeared, the pain they left behind did not, and her clothes seemed to tattered at parts. "You girls are too fussy! Now, don't complain that much and make the call fast," he said, "You don't want to have them send someone to look for us and then to get caught." Letting out a sigh, Soohyun looked down at her phone, and turning it on, she swiped her finger across the screen to search for his number. After she had found it, she clicked on it in order to place a call at Kim Junghyun. Seeing that the phone was ringing, she waited for the boy at the opposite side to pick up the call while she tapped her foot on the land beneath her. "Don't do that! That's annoying!" Kwangsoo exclaimed. Upon hearing those words from him, Soohyun hit the land with her foot more loudly, and smirking at him, she vocalised, "I won't! What are you going to—" "Hello." Hearing Kim Junghyun's voice from the other side of the phone caused her to stop taking, and wearing a smiling expression on her face, she voiced out, "This is me— Moon Jiwoo. How have you been?" "Yeah, I have figured that part out. What did you need?" Junghyun voiced out— his voice sounding annoyed. "Wow! He is as rude as I remembered," Kwangsoo mumbled.
