7% Sunlight.

 

The mother’s face, which Kim San had only seen in pictures, overlapped with the face of the flyer. Even the way his grandfather looks when he looks at his dad, telling him to take care of his body.

 

Kim San turned away as he continued to look down at the flyer in his hand. His heart became heavy, and he couldn’t walk around the neighborhood lightly anymore.

When he arrived at the guide association, Kim San deliberately headed to the back door instead of entering the lobby. This door was relatively quiet because he had to go to the lobby to take the elevator. Kim San, who is more familiar with stairs, used to use this road as if it were a dedicated passage.

 

In his hand, only the bag of pretzels was making small noises. Kim San finished reading the paper handed over by a middle-aged man earlier, folded it, and put it in his pocket. It was just a piece of paper but hard to throw away easily.

 

After passing through the door and climbing the stairs, Kim San is wondering if he should pick up his cell phone first or go immediately to where Gido Hae is.

 

At that time, someone grabbed Kim San’s shoulder from behind. As the view swung around, Kim San turned back helplessly. When he felt like I was going to roll, his face hit the hard chest of the person who pulled me.

 

As he raised his face, he saw a familiar face. Kim San calmly greeted him.

 

“Huh? Hello, Mr. Esper.”

 

“……”

 

Gido Hae, who had a stiff face, was not smiling as usual. However, just by looking at his face, Kim San was able to relieve some of his depression a while ago.

 

Anyway, what’s going on? Unlike usual, Gido Hae looked down at Kim San with an expressionless face. As soon as Kim San opened his mouth and tried to ask why, his arms were caught this time, and he was dragged up the stairs.

 

Kim San steadily followed after Gido Hae. He thought there must be a reason. There was still about 10 minutes left for the appointment. The first thing that crossed my mind was whether he was in pain or an urgent incident occurred.

 

“Mr. Esper?”

 

The grip of Gido Hae holding the arm hurt a little. He seemed to control his strength less because Kim San said he was strong last time.

 

The next time Kim San had a chance, he resolved to say carefully that he didn’t think he was as strong as I thought. As expected, the S-class Esper’s physical ability is also different.

 

It was not until he passed the first security gate that Gido Hae opened his mouth.

 

“You didn’t bring your cell phone.”

 

“Oh. Did you call? I’m sorry.”

 

Ah lowered his head Kim San saw the pretzel bag he was holding. Gido Hae’s eyes turned in that direction. Kim San was about to recommend the pretzel in case he wanted some, but his grip tightened.

 

“Excuse me, Mr. Esper. My arm hurts a little.”

 

I’d better just tell him now. He was confident in his physical strength but also useless in front of Esper.

 

“Oh.”

 

Only then did Gido Hae realize that he was not controlling his strength, so he relaxed his grip for now. Kim San also felt grateful for this fact.

 

“It didn’t hurt much. Thank you.”

 

This attitude of Kim San, always believing Gido Hae would not hurt him, is annoying. His eyes squinted at the innocent voice.

 

He strictly controls the information, but at this point, Gido Hae is doubtful that someone locked up Kim San and brainwashed him that he was a good kid.

 

Reflecting on the troublesome work that happened a while ago. Gido Hae decided to find a way to put the tracker in his body soon.

 

“Please take care of your cell phone in the future. You must listen to the monster alert, so you must take it.”

 

“Ah! Yes, I will.”

 

Kim-san, who heard about the monster alert, nodded loudly and vowed several times. Then he naturally smiled and stood next to Gido Hae as if he believed Gido Hae would continue holding his arms while walking.

 

Kim San acts like he doesn’t care about skinship, but he is a little confused by this natural behavior. Gido Hae refrained from frowning and let go of his arms.

 

“Kim San, I was worried about you.”

 

“I’ll be careful from now on.”

 

He naturally spoke as if he had reacted like this out of concern. Since Kim San entered this security gate anyway, he needed a card to leave. There was enough time to question so that Gido Hae could observe Kim San’s reaction.

 

Kim San was deceived by the appearance again and walked gently next to him as if nothing had happened. He arrived here on time.

 

After carefully observing Kim San’s chattering through two more security doors, he did not seem to have tried to run away.

 

Gido Hae thought Kim San was trying to escape because his father had ordered him. Lee Jae-Chul looked around a nearby store where Kim San might have gone, but he couldn’t find it.

 

Lee Jae-Chul reluctantly delivered the information he had heard. Gido Hae let it in one ear and out of the other, but when this situation happened, it came to mind naturally, and he was full of energy.

 

Gido Hae had to stay inside this room while listening to Kim San’s voice. Isn’t this the same as brainwashing?

 

He opened the guiding room door for Kim San, pretending to be a good person. The heavy iron door can only be opened if he has the access card. Kim San remembered to say thank you every time to the point of weariness. There was a grating sound from Kim San’s wrist as he went in quietly. From a while ago, the hanging bag with the annoying smell probably contained bread or something.

 

Of course, it was an item that Kim San, who liked to list even trivial information, never mentioned. The narrow-eyed Gido Hae decided to ask.

 

“Where have you been?”

 

Kim San was delighted as he entered the dark guiding room. He immediately remembered that he was happy to find a delicious pretzel place.

 

“I went to a place I’ve never been to today. I heard there was a delicious pretzel place when I was passing by the lobby. By the way, there’s one left. Do you want some

 

“You can put it down here for now.”

 

He asked while sticking the bag forward, but Gido Hae avoided eye contact. Then he pointed his finger to the floor at the entrance of the guiding room. Kim San felt terrible about putting food on the floor and looked around, but there was no place to put it. Eventually, he hesitated and carefully put it there. 

 

“A place you’ve never been to?”

 

His hesitation, which had been brief in response to his question, evaporated. This is because Kim San was glad that Gido Hae was interested in what Kim San said and asked back.

 

It was good for Kim San to share his trivial daily life with him. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t have close friends. Strangely, whenever Kim San saw Gido Hae, he wanted to talk to him and laugh with him.

 

“Oh, and it was a huge building. It was a building said to be a government office.”

 

“Yes.”

 

After saying that much, what Kim San saw earlier came to mind. He finally forgot, but his heart suddenly became heavy again.

 

Kim San’s face was temporarily shaded as if there were dark clouds. Soon, however, Kim San smiled again when he saw Gido Hae’s face. Kim San was encouraged to find news about his mother again when he saw the handsome face. Also, he didn’t want to put another burden on him because he was sick.

 

“You’ve gone far without contact.”

 

“Yes! I’ll go further next time.

 

“……is that so?”

 

At Kim San’s bright determination, Gido Hae gently raised one eyebrow.

 

It was very annoying to hear that he would go further. Gido Hae thinks something quite difficult will happen when he can’t control Kim San’s radius of action.

 

Kim San smiled brightly without knowing what had happened while he was gone without any contact. Gido Hae was haunted by the urge to see that little white face distorted.

 

Gido Hae approached him by the bed and gently rubbed his cheek. Kim San would always light up like a light bulb whenever he touched his cheeks.

 

“Take it off.”He deliberately spat out orders in his ears. Without understanding what he meant, Kim San crouched his neck as if it was itchy and took off his coat.

 

Then, after doing it for a few days like a habit, he crawled onto Gido Hae’s lap on his own. Gido Hae purposely grabbed the waist and back, but it was also strange that he didn’t feel any energy before he decided to start guiding.

 

This is why he didn’t like inexperienced guides. Even if the opponent was a man, it took so long that it was annoying.

 

“Today, like this.”

 

Gido Hae tried to hide the annoying feelings that burst out. He laid Kim San on the bed. He turned his body so he would not be able to see the dark expression on his face.
