After Saving the Villains, They Became Obsessed With Me - Chapter 105



Side Story – #2. Stories You Didn’t Know (2)

「Research Journal – Joo Heon」

People swear. Of course, there are people who don’t, but they swear anyway.

Every situation is different.

You got a really painful wound, or something really irritating happened.

Again…

“Wow!!”

“Oh fuck, surprise me!”

Or be really surprised.

“Why, why are you swearing… The baby is going to be surprised.”

“No, ah, I’m sorry.”

Joo Heon urgently apologized.

No matter how surprised I am, I can’t believe you swore at someone you love.

I wanted to rip this guy’s mouth off and roast it.

“It’s okay.”

My wife smiled and forgave me.

A woman with orange hair and purple eyes. It was quite different from me, who had black hair and black eyes.

His wife, Ji Young-woo, was a good person

A person whose mind becomes as clear as looking at the morning sunlight.

It was truly a blessing to be married to someone like this.

“······The baby will be born well.”

She also had concerns. That is, having a baby.

There were no complaints about the pregnancy itself because it was with someone I loved, but the problem was the location.

This is a research lab. They don’t even do legitimate research. Since it is an island located in the middle of the sea, it is not easy to get out.

But she wanted to give birth. Joo Ji-heon was like that too.

I wanted to give my child love and help him grow up well.

“······Should I ask the director? “Can I go out?”

Maybe it will be okay if we go to land now. In a normal environment, you can raise them by giving them more love.

I have money saved up so there won’t be any problem.

“······No. “You know the director’s personality.”

It was an ideal ending after all.

The warden will never be sent off the island. That’s because the information might leak out.

The warden I have seen so far is a cruel person.

They never pay attention to test subjects, whether they are young or sick. Rather, they conduct more intense experiments than usual in hopes of obtaining new results.

Sometimes I wonder if I don’t have any emotions.

“Then what should I do…”

“Tsk, should I at least say something?”

But people always dream of impossible hopes.

My wife was like that, and so was I.

“Let’s do it!”

We ran straight to the director.

We announced our pregnancy together.

The director’s reaction was that he had expected it. A reaction like I knew this would happen someday.

“Well, because you are a couple.”

Quite unexpectedly, a good answer came back.

“You can’t go out. Instead, I will allow you to grow it here. “It doesn’t really matter as long as it doesn’t interfere with research.”

It was like a salvation.

You can raise a child.

The warden, whom I had always thought of as scary, even looked different.

We decided to have a child.

Just like that, “A child was born.”

“My wife was sick for a few days, but the child was healthy.”

“When I think about it now, it was a miracle. “A baby was born healthy in a place that wasn’t even a hospital.”

“Her wife asked me to name her.”

“Actually, I’ve been thinking about it for a few days now because I think this will happen. Anyway, I confidently told her the name of her child.”

“It will be clear in the prefecture.”

“My child’s name is Joo Hyeon-ah.”

Happy. Just for a moment.

“That child should not have been born.”

“Oh, it would be rude for the child to speak like that.”

“I’ll correct it. That child should not have been our child.”

“We were desperate and irrational.”

“If I were born in another good family…”

“Damn it.”

“We are foolish parents.”

+*^

“······Yes?”

“Good job, it’s hard to find a test subject that young.”

“What did you say just now?”

“The director’s attitude suddenly changed a day after the child was born.”

“The director said he would use our child as an experiment.”

“Didn’t you hear?”

“I didn’t mean that! “How could you do something like that to a child… “

“Oh, there was a misunderstanding. I’m not saying I’m going to use it like that. I have to wait until I’m at least five years old.”

“Director!!”

“That’s strange.”

Actually, I have no right to be angry.

“A just-born baby is young, and so is a fifteen-year-old you just drugged. “What’s the difference?”

Nevertheless, I was angry.

Because I was a father now.

“You…Are crazy.”

“Yes, it was crazy. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have built this research center. But… Aren’t you both crazy for giving birth to a child in a place like this?”

“······In any case, absolutely not possible. The moment you use a child as an experiment, I will ruin everything, including the research. This is a warning.”

“Hmm, I have no choice if you refuse. “Try to grow it well.”

The director seemed to be retreating, but he did not retreat.

“But you have to stay out of my sight. You can’t miss out on research either. “On days when you hear a baby crying at night, there will be one more test subject.”

“I should have killed the warden back then.”

“Why didn’t I do that?”

+*^

“Hyunya, eat your meal as quickly as possible.”

Once the child grew up to a certain degree, the director requested more performance.

They say it was consideration that they watched us until now.

In the end, neither of us could stay by the child’s side for long.

“When the child said that he would eat with us no matter what, we had no choice but to urge him to eat quickly.”

“Because I shouldn’t have been outside for no reason and caught the warden’s attention.”

“What are you doing now? Eat faster.”

“They can’t be good parents, but they shorten meal times.”

“Nevertheless, Hyuna grew up well.”

“Someday, I will have to know the truth.”

“How should I tell you?”

“Honey, let’s put one more book in the room.”

“What book?”

“A book about morality… Or ethics. “There is one, right?”

“I hid a book in my room.”

“I hope you learn that this is wrong.”

If this continues, Hyuna will go astray. Even if I leave here someday, I will be different from other kids.

At least morals had to be taught.

We wanted to educate ourselves, but unfortunately we didn’t have time.

Because I only have time to see Hyuna at dawn.

It would have been difficult already, but I couldn’t disturb my sleep time.

“Hyunya, at least the books in this room… Are books that record the truth.”

“But this choice was also a wrong choice.”

During the day, Hyuna came to visit.

When she found the book, she asked about morality.

The problem is that there was also a warden there. The director was looking at Hyuna with a meaningful expression.

“We hurriedly kicked Hyuna out.”

“Damn, I’m so angry. “I haven’t been able to properly say I love you.”

“Why am I…”

“Honey, what should I do?”

“······I don’t know.”

“So, if the warden does anything…”

“Now that I think about it, a guest came that day. A guest from a villain organization who said he would come often from now on.”

“A fellow researcher said he was a sponsor.”

“Uh? Honey, that person must be…”

When her wife saw the black man, she ran to him.

I wanted to stop her, but her wife was running faster than I thought.

“Please take my child with me!”

As soon as her wife encountered the man, she suddenly said that.

I wondered if I was sane, but it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand his feelings.

If you’re going to live as an experiment in a place like this, it’s better to leave even if you become a villain…

Damn it, how did I even come up with this thought?

“What is the child’s name?”

The man asked that question.

“Joo, Joohyun…”

“Joohyun… If it’s useful, I’ll take it with you. So calm down now.”

The man was a person who spoke in a strangely feminine tone.

He also smiled strangely.

It was a smile that made me anxious.

As if to prove that she had been pushed too far, her wife despaired as soon as the man left.

“Oh, my, what have I done…”

The man is the warden’s guest. Maybe I’ll report what we said to the warden. Maybe you just saw the scene on CCTV.

Feeling anxious, we ran straight to Hyuna.

“And her wife died.”

“The warden killed him. They dragged the test subjects and beat them to death. When the warden said that he would release the person who struck the last blow, the test subjects did not hesitate.”

“Are we being punished?”

“I will die soon too. In the end, the only hope left was that man.”

“Damn it, I have to leave my child with the first person I see.”

“I’ll leave this map to that man. You should never, ever show it to Hyuna. “I didn’t want to cause any confusion.”

“Ah, there is no time. Let’s end this diary here.”

“I really need to find that man.”

After finishing the diary, Ju Heon tore up all the other pages.

This is an experiment conducted on people. I couldn’t leave Hyuna with the diary she recorded.

“Oh, indeed.”

As he was about to leave, Ju Heon opened the journal again.

I wrote the last sentence as is.

“I’m so sorry to Hyuna.”

“If we hadn’t had a stupid dream, you wouldn’t have suffered.”

“Still.”

“I was thankful for being born.”

“······What is it?”

Joo Hyun-ah crumpled her notebook.

“What is this?”

I had doubts.

Is this diary real?

Could it be fake?

I soon realized that wasn’t the case. There is no way Do Hanna kept a fake diary.

“······It was just something like this?”

The diary becomes increasingly sparse as it progresses.

Probably because I was busy. After I was 10, it was difficult to see my parents’ faces.

Still, it was enough of a diary to find out what I was curious about.

The reason I fed him quickly and the reason he got angry that day. It was like this.

Other than that, I didn’t think much about it.

Sadness, anger. I didn’t feel anything like that.

Because everyone to blame was already dead.

All she felt was a sense of futility at having learned the truth through only printed matter.

It had been too long since then to be shocked by the truth.

“Well, that’s ridiculous.”

Since she was a researcher, why didn’t she make smarter choices?

“You’re so bossy, you’ve been hiding this until now.”

Joo Hyeon-ah sighed and opened her crumpled notebook again.

She unfolded it again, etching her handwriting into her eyes.

From her room she brought a pen.

I wanted to write something.

The last sentence in an old notebook. Below the sentence that made me laugh because it was so absurd, I wrote a new sentence in letters of similar size.

「 A smart daughter was born to stupid parents. It’s a miracle, right? 」

“It’s done.”

Well, I don’t have any resentment towards my parents.

The right to forgive her parents belongs only to Joo Hyeon-ah, her child, and she had already exercised that right a long time ago.

It’s a right she’s earned so well, but it would be a waste to let it go to waste.

Hyeonah Joo closed her notebook and put it back on her bookshelf. It’s a note I left with the captain, so let’s keep it here.

After finally finishing all the cleaning, Joohyun opened her gate.

Before she went in, she took one last look at the bookshelf.

“······Sometimes, I wonder if I’ll come visit too.”
