His tongue, which held onto his tongue and wouldn’t let go, kept touching the sensitive places inside his mouth, making goosebumps rise on his body. Every time Joo Seonghan made a moaning sound, he kneaded his buttocks. It felt like his head was melting.
“Team Leader Yeon!”
Han Jaejun’s voice was heard from afar. Yeon Dogyeong, who withdrew his hand from the pants, grabbed Joo Seonghan’s face with both hands. He painfully sucked on his lips and tongue and raised his head. Joo Seonghan couldn’t hide his rough breathing and opened his eyes drowsily. Yeon Dogyeong, who licked Joo Seonghan’s parted lips and teeth several times with his tongue out, rubbed his nose against Joo Seonghan’s cheek.
“Hah….”
His finger entered his ear. He gently caressed it then inserted his finger. He squeezed his eyes shut then bit his lips and opened them. Yeon Dogyeong, who had moved his face away, was looking into Joo Seonghan’s face with a smile right in front of his nose. He rubbed under his chin and his ear while observing Joo Seonghan’s completely relaxed face. Joo Seonghan gripped Yeon Dogyeong’s clothes and shook his head.
“Team Leader Yeon! Hurry up and come here!”
Han Jaejun urged.
“Tongue.”
Yeon Dogyeong, who paid no attention, said to Joo Seonghan. Joo Seonghan, who shrank his neck at the touch caressing his ear, opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, his eyes and shoulders occasionally convulsing. Yeon Dogyeong smiled brightly.
“Good boy.”
He spoke playfully and slowly, then licked Joo Seonghan’s tongue that was exposed in the air once. He touched it tantalizingly and it was frustrating. Joo Seonghan, who had been rolling his eyes anxiously, raised his heels. Hahaha, he pulled out his tongue toward the corners of the laughing man’s mouth. He removed his finger from his ear and sucked on Joo Seonghan’s tongue in his mouth with a face full of laughter.
“No, fuck! Can’t you hear me?!”
There was a sound of stepping on grass. Han Jaejun’s voice was closer than before. Yeon Dogyeong, who slowly released Joo Seonghan’s tongue, licked his own lips and wiped Joo Seonghan’s mouth with the back of his hand.
“Calm down your dick and come out.”
He touched under Joo Seonghan’s chin as if scratching it and moved away toward where the footsteps could be heard. Haa, hah…. Joo Seonghan, who closed his open mouth, looked down. His erect penis was lifting up his pants. He rubbed his hot lips with the back of his hand and tried to calm down his penis. It was three minutes later that Joo Seonghan left the forest and went to the riverside.
“…so wouldn’t it be better to move separately. I think it would be okay if Sunbae acts as bait.”
When they went up a bit along the river, the backs of people gathered together could be glimpsed through the drooping leaves. The sound of Han Jaejun cursing “Fuck” could be heard.
“Jaejun and I will lure them together, and the three of you go inside and open the Guimun. It might close quickly, so check carefully. Don’t leave us behind.”
Yeon Dogyeong concluded his words while patting Kang Hyeonjoo’s back. Joo Seonghan pushed through the leaves and stood beside Yeon Dogyeong. And he opened his mouth blankly.
The vast lake was shining brightly in the moonlight. On the other side of it, one large, solidly built tile-roofed house and countless movements could be seen. There were many semi-humans. Semi-humans drinking water at the lake, semi-humans running around the field next to the tile-roofed house, semi-humans gathered together spinning around in circles as if dancing. Getting into the tile-roofed house was the first hurdle.
“Joo Seonghan-ssi.”
Kang Hyeonjoo gestured to Joo Seonghan. Joo Seonghan glanced at Yeon Dogyeong, who was looking beyond the lake, and approached Kang Hyeonjoo.
“We don’t know the internal structure of the tile-roofed house. Park Gyujin-ssi says he doesn’t know either, so we’ll have no choice but to wander around once we go inside, but let’s try not to scatter and stick together as much as possible. When we discover the Guimun and Park Gyujin-ssi opens it, Joo Seonghan-ssi, you enter inside first. Check the timing of when it closes, and then Park Gyujin-ssi enters next.”
At Kang Hyeonjoo’s words, Park Gyujin, who had turned pale white, nodded like a machine. Kang Hyeonjoo grabbed Park Gyujin’s shoulder and pressed down hard. Ack! Park Gyujin screamed and escaped from his hand.
“Get a grip. If you freeze up from fear, it’s over. If the situation doesn’t go well, I might not be able to save Park Gyujin-ssi.”
“Yes, yes…. Yes….”
Kang Hyeonjoo, who decided to be satisfied with getting an answer even if it was unreliable, looked back at Yeon Dogyeong and Han Jaejun. The two seemed to have roughly made plans as well, silently taking out their weapons and preparing more firmly. Han Jaejun, who noticed the gaze, threw several thin glow sticks to Kang Hyeonjoo.
“Hey, mark it well. If you throw it in a weird place, the team leader and I will die.”
“Yes. I’ll judge the entry timing myself?”
“Yeah.”
Yeon Dogyeong, who threw his empty bag, answered. Armed, he looked at the lake then pointed to a relatively quiet forest on the right side of the tile-roofed house.
“Jaejun and I will wait around there, so signal when you’re ready. When the kids around the tile-roofed house thin out somewhat, go in on your own.”
“Should we split up completely?”
Kang Hyeonjoo, who was shoving grenades inside his vest, asked. The statement that they would wait and start the lure upon receiving a signal meant that the two teams would approach the tile-roofed house in different directions. If they went together in the same direction, there would be no need to signal.
“Yeah. We’ll part ways here.”
Yeon Dogyeong said refreshingly. Joo Seonghan, who had been sitting on the ground taking out unnecessary items from his bag, stopped and raised his head. Yeon Dogyeong lowered his eyes. Smiling, he bent his knees and sat in front of Joo Seonghan, handing him a bundle of glow sticks. When he silently received it, he stroked his head.
“Don’t die.”
“……”
“You have to answer.”
He spoke while caressing near his ear like a whisper. Joo Seonghan answered “Yes” quietly.
“How should we signal?”
At Kang Hyeonjoo’s question, Yeon Dogyeong moved away from in front of Joo Seonghan. Joo Seonghan pressed his lips tightly and put the glow sticks in his bag.
“When you confirm the entrance, throw a stone or something into the lake. Jaejun will see it.”
“Yes.”
With Kang Hyeonjoo’s answer as the end, Han Jaejun, who had finished arming himself, released the safety on his gun. Yeon Dogyeong, who was properly holding the submachine gun that had been hanging on his shoulder, said “Let’s go” to him.
“Sunbae-nim.”
Kang Hyeonjoo stopped the two who were walking away nonchalantly with a blunt voice. The expressions of those who looked back were no different from usual.
“See you alive.”
“Sure.”
Han Jaejun answered with an annoyed face, and Yeon Dogyeong smiled and waved his hand.
Joo Seonghan didn’t take his eyes off them moving away until their backs disappeared. At this moment that might be the last, Joo Seonghan clenched his fists and called Yeon Dogyeong’s name only in his heart, unable to say anything. Please be safe. When he returned beyond the Guimun, or when he closed his eyes in this place, may he not regret this moment. Joo Seonghan bit his lips while arbitrarily imagining the appearance of Yeon Dogyeong standing under the sunlight.
“Let’s go once we’re ready too.”
Kang Hyeonjoo threw his empty bag and took a step. Joo Seonghan answered “Yes” while getting up, shouldering his backpack. Park Gyujin, who had been blankly looking beyond the lake, also quickly stuck to Joo Seonghan’s side.
“Tell us now.”
Kang Hyeonjoo said while thoroughly scanning the front. Joo Seonghan, knowing that those words weren’t directed at him, looked at Park Gyujin who was walking while looking around beside him. Park Gyujin opened his mouth hesitantly, as if he heard the words belatedly, his eyes wide.
“…When, when we arrive at the place where the Guimun is…. I’ll, I’ll tell you then.”
Seeing him answer that he wouldn’t tell them how to open the Guimun until the very last moment, it seemed he thought he might be abandoned. Kang Hyeonjoo, who heard his answer, looked Park Gyujin over once with a suspicious face and didn’t bring up any more words after that.
They circled around the lake toward the tile-roofed house. Joo Seonghan raised his head toward the various footsteps of semi-humans that were starting to be heard gradually, thinking of Yeon Dogyeong and Han Jaejun who would be moving quietly on the opposite side. Perhaps because they were all gathered near the tile-roofed house, they didn’t encounter a single semi-human on the way. However, after leaving about ten meters to the tile-roofed house, they couldn’t advance. Semi-humans were spread all around, and it was certain they would be spotted if they moved forward. The three hid their bodies behind a large rock placed a little away from the lake and looked at the semi-humans roaming in front of the tile-roofed house.
“Anyone see a door?”
At Kang Hyeonjoo’s question, Joo Seonghan and Park Gyujin shook their heads. What was visible from here was the back of the tile-roofed house. Let alone a door, there wasn’t even a single window.
“Structurally, it seems like it will appear if we go around to the front. I’ll send the signal.”
Kang Hyeonjoo said while lifting a rock the size of a person’s face from beside the rock. Without even waiting for an answer, he went toward the lake. Park Gyujin grabbed his arm and stopped him.
“Still…. Team Leader Yeon said to check the door and send the signal. Wouldn’t it be better to check…?”
“Then would Park Gyujin-ssi like to go see where the door is and report back?”
“How could I…. I’m weak, I don’t have a weapon, and….”
Park Gyujin rolled his eyes anxiously while rubbing his cold-sweated face. Kang Hyeonjoo silently shook off his hand and went near the lake, throwing the rock with force. The water dented and bounced up, making a heavy sound. Kang Hyeonjoo, who returned behind the rock again, took out his pistol with an expressionless face. In the heavy atmosphere, Joo Seonghan also gripped his rifle again. Soon, a flare went up in the forest near the building.
