"...!"
The yellow, transparent consistency flowed down along with the shattered shell. It was a raw egg.
However, before there was a chance to escape, the second and third eggs flew in. She instinctively crosse d her arms and lowered her face.
I tried to get away, but my clothes got wet without any help as eggs flew at me from all directions. Does she think of her as someone from the headquarters of her factory? Her outrageous swearing was also inclu ded.
"It's real cannabis?"
"Does it matter now?" !"
She shouted, but Lee Woo-shin began to quietly stare at her with his arms crossed, regardless of whether the egg flew or not.
The egg hit the floor and exploded like a small bomb.
"It's important. "You can't put a hallucinator on your travel list."
"I don't do weed!"
"I heard you're rolling your eyes."
"Let's go out quickly... !"
"If it's not cannabis, what kind of smell makes people crazy?"
"Fuck, my husband smells...! "Where are the cark eys?"
Seo-ryeong slowly vomited out what was at the bot tom. It seemed like I was the only one in urgent need here.
Puck, puck, the eggs being thrown at him were not that easy, but Lee Woo-shin stood motionless with a look on his face as if he had been hit by something bigger than that.
Lady, this person is okay...! In the end, the moment she ran away alone, Lee Woo-shin grabbed her elbow.
"what...!"
A large hand came down steeply, as if to hit the face. what...! His fur stood on end, but Seo-ryeong just stared at his solar plexus without even blinking.
If you hit, I hit too. As a moment of determination p assed her by, a heavy white hand stopped near her temple.
Kwasik - something breaks. The vivid sound gave me goosebumps from my ears to the back of my neck.
All of this happened in an instant. He caught and br oke the egg that was flying towards Seo-ryeong's hea d. A sticky substance was flowing from his grasp.
"It's strange."
While he was in a daze, Lee Woo-shin was casually wiping his damp hands on Seo-ryeong's clothes and muttering to himself. It was a natural attitude without any trace of shame.
"Is it normal to follow a strange man just because o f his smell? "If you tell the boys that they can fly-"
He placed his nose diagonally on his finger, where the transparent viscosity was growing. The unique fish y smell of raw eggs wafted all the way up here. He let out a small laugh.
"But doesn't it still smell like cheap dick?"
"...!"
"How can we entrust our crew's underwear to such a pervert from now on?"
He said with a cold face. Nevertheless, the shamel essly smiling corners of his mouth were, in a way, amazing.
The voice was still soft, but the look in the eyes was unbelievably cold. Seo-ryeong did not avoid his gaze and accepted it.
"Not a man, but a husband."
"....."
"There are many men, but there is only one husband in the world. And he's not a pervert, he's not acting strange, he's not smelling bad like that. "He has no problem working."
She took the opportunity to defend herself. With the intention that there would be no grounds for disqual ification even if she accompanied him on a business trip.
Nevertheless, Lee Woo-shin just stared at Seo-ryeong with a faint smile on his face. A complex look that seemed both annoying and annoying reached me mercilessly.
Because it's my husband. He just snorted and pondered those words.
"Yes, it's definitely better for Han Seo-ryeong to no t be here."
Her eyes widened brightly. Does that mean she can accompany me on a business trip?
Finally, he scratched the end of his eyebrow in frust ration and quickly walked to wards the back door. Looking at it like this, his broad back was also dirty from bumps and broken eggs.
He never opened his mouth until he returned to work.

"Thailand?"
It was the next morning that I received a call from t he division manager.
Her eyes widened as she flipped through the file she had been handed. Okay, here... Medical care, driving, and cooking. Han Seo-ryeong in cooking....
"Han Seo-ryeong will be moving with us as rear support. Please read this carefully and prepare accordingly. The back page is a confidentiality agreement, so sign it quickly...."
The division manager scratching behind his ears looked dissatisfied for some reason.
"Don't worry because you won't have to go out to t he field... All you have to do is provide support from behind. Since the medics are going together, the medicines will probably be procured locally.... Meet the staff at the airport and leave the country first. "The crew will depart on a different plane."
"Those crews... "What do you do in Thailand?"
She thought it was time to ask what she was most curious about. About what the special security team does.
Then, the division manager, who subtly twisted his lips, turned the chair he was sitting on. He stared at the computer monitor and typed harshly on his keyboard.
"I don't know the details either. "I think my travel al lowance will be deducted, but there's no change in m y account, right?"
"Ah yes."
"There is no separate manpower to protect the employees, so take care of yourself... Even if something happens, I just pretend not to notice. "If you throw out food waste there, if you're unlucky, you'll get shot."
He clicked his tongue and organized his desk noisily. "It would be better for Han Seo-ryeong to just clos e his eyes," the division manager added, shaking off his dusty hands.
The schedule for departure the day after tomorrow was tight. Seo-ryeong was stirring the bear soup with a ladle, thinking that she would have to pack her things first when she got off work today.
After standing in front of the fire for several hours, I was sweating through my sanitary hat and mask. Next to her, another woman was rolling eggs, and her ears twitched every time she cracked the shell.
Seo-ryeong reflexively recalled yesterday. All the way back to work, the car, filled with a fishy smell, was quiet and suffocating.
Did Team Manager Lee Woo-shin make his decision at that time? Do you mind if you take me with you?
Somehow I felt a strange corner, but that was none of my business.
Seo-ryeong was originally a person who was not interested in the innocence of the process. However, it was a little shocking that they both thought of each ot heras perverts.
"I'm opening the restaurant!"
The cook looked at the clock and shouted. When the ladies put rice and soup on a flat tray, Seo-ryeong placed the side dishes on a paper plate. While I was doing such mechanical labor, a familiar lady spoke to me.
"I heard Seoryeong is going on a business trip."
"yes."
"Now, Seoryeong, if you quit, this place will get drab... It's a shame so I'll leave this behind...."
Seo-ryeong looked up from putting down her side dish. I just blinked at the completely different reaction from the head of the department.
"I'm only going to be away for a few days."
"That's not what I meant..."
The lady looked around for a moment and lowered her voice.
"It's like everyone quits when they come back from a business trip."
"Who?"
"Just people like us."
"..."
"Even when people ask me why I quit, I just keep my mouth shut and don't say anything."
Seo-ryeong remembered the confidentiality agree ment I had signed.
"If you follow that special team trip, it will definitely take four months... I liked Seo-ryeong, she was like my daughter. It's a shame so I'm leaving this behind...
"Ma'am, you only have two sons."
"Because it's wrong."
The lady slapped Seo-ryeong on the shoulder and Iaughed out loud. Even though Seo-ryeong's body was shaking, she was deeply lost in her thoughts.
People quit just coming back from a business trip?
However, since the rear support team said that they do not go directly to the field, injuries are unlikely to be an issue.
then-.
It's like a sense of guilt that I can't participate.
She hid behind her mask and laughed.
***
It was my first time setting foot on Thailand.
My heart beat rapidly at the exotic scenery and unfa miliar smells. However, the new stimulus quickly tired Seo-ryeong's sense of sight and smell.
Although it was winter in Korea, it was as hot as midsummer in Bangkok, and one of the reasons I got tired quickly was that the humid air was suffocating. My already chapped skin seemed to beripening under the stinging sunlight.
Seo-ryeong had come in disguised as a free travele ralong with other support team members.
There are only three employees.
One for medical care, one for driving, and one for cooking.
Seo-ryeong only exchanged formal greetings with them and then boarded the plane. Perhaps because of their status, their actions were simple and they only talked about what was necessary.
Eventually, the place where I unpacked my luggage was in a shabby area isolated from the airport. All visible buildings were old and dirty. Among other things, Seo-ryeong's group entered an inn with all the walls peeled off and climbed up the barely skeletal steel stairs.
The medic who arrived at the room laid out medicines including bandages, injections, and antibiotics obtained locally, and Seo-ryeong organized the members' camouflage clothing and instant food.
