Chapter 30- Let’s Get Started
Jin-woo didn't want to believe what he was seeing, but even though his eyes were blurry without his glasses, his brain told him that the object on the ground was a piece of flesh.
It landed with a splat due to the bright red blood coating it. The skin was facing downward while the inside of the flesh was facing upright, giving Jin-woo a clear view of what was beneath a human's skin.
It looked like a slice of beef doused with gravy and soya sauce.
After his brain made that comparison, Jin-woo almost gagged.
Seo-joon, who was taking out a box of cigarettes from his top pocket to smoke another one, paused when he saw Jin-woo's expression. He followed Jin-woo's gaze to see what he was looking at and when he saw nothing he frowned.
"What the fuck are you looking at freak?"
Seo-joon's words caused Jin-woo to slowly look up from the piece of flesh and at Seo-joon's face. Jin-woo's pupils immediately constricted and with an expression of horror, he ignored the pain his body was in and scrambled backward.
"What the fuck..."
Seo-joon let out a curse due to Jin-woo's sudden reaction, but his eyes suddenly flashed before he lunged at Jin-woo and grabbed his collar.
"No, let me go!"
Jin-woo yelled and frantically tried to get away from Seo-joon, but Seo-joon pulled him closer and asked.
"What are you seeing?"
"Get off!"
Jin-woo yelled in response and struggled even more fiercely.
"Bastard, I said what do you see?!"
A struggle ensued as Seo-joon tried to hold onto Jin-woo, while Jin-woo was furiously trying to escape. The sudden screaming and scuffle caused the two lackeys to turn around and hurry over
As they came over, Jin-woo's face drained of blood as he looked at them.
Gray skin, rotten and bloodied flesh that was peeling off as they rushed over. Jin-woo's heart started to beat rapidly and a sense of dread overcame his entire being.
"No, get off me!"
Jin-woo turned back to Seo-joon and his struggles to get away intensified tenfold.
"Bastard, just answer me."
Seo-joon growled as he tightly held onto Jin-woo's collar not willing to let him go.
Jin-woo, however, didn't even register his questions. He stared into Seo-joon's empty sockets and tremor after tremor ran throughout his body. The skin on Seo-joon's face started falling off revealing the flesh beneath his skin, and the white bones of his cheeks.
The flesh fell onto Jin-woo accompanied by blood that looked blacker than red.
Jin-woo could feel the cold sensation as the flesh from Seo-joon's face hit his hand on its way to the ground. He could taste the now black blood that spurted onto his face and accidentally seeped into his mouth. It was slightly bitter with a somewhat acidic aftertaste and sludgy texture.
Lackey Two added.
"Unless... He really is a freak."
Lackey One said once again as he looked at Jin-woo with a wary expression.
Seo-joon, however, was staring at Jin-woo without saying anything. With his face expressionless, it was hard to tell what he was thinking at the moment.
"Jin, come on, count with me. One little star, two little star..."
Seong started counting, and Jin-woo started counting along with him in a shaky voice; finally beginning to fully calm down after a while.
"Now he's muttering to himself."
Lackey One said as they could hardly hear what Jin-woo was saying from here.
Seo-joon stepped forward about to approach Jin-woo, however, a loud sound suddenly echoed out. Everyone turned to see that a truck had turned off the road leading to the school gate and was driving behind the west wing and east wing of the High School in this direction.
Even though this back area wasn't an official road, it was large enough for about three cars to drive side by side.
"Shit, Hyung let's go."
Seo-joon hesitated as he looked at Jin-woo. However, he soon clicked his tongue and with his two lackeys he turned and hurried off.
Jin-woo wiped his lips as he watched them go. His vision was still blurry, but he was no longer hallucinating. Nevertheless, what happened just now still made his heart shudder in fear.
As Jin-woo slowly got up, the truck came to a stop some distance away before two drivers came out.
"Hey kid, are you okay?"
One of the drivers asked when he saw the blood on Jin-woo's face.
Jin-woo only nodded before he turned and hurried off.
"*Tsk*... So even a school like this has students getting bullied."
The second driver commented before spitting off to the side.
"Yeah, but what else is new? We're getting paid to steal from this school's water supply, but we've been let into the campus so easily. What does that tell yah about this school?"
The second driver didn't respond but he agreed with a nod.
"Hm, here it is."
The first driver said as he made his way over to a large pipe running alongside the gymnasium that had a latched open. He then turned to the second driver and said.
"Grab the hose, and let's get started."
The second driver nodded and then turned to get the hose from behind the truck.
