Chapter 14 “Haa… haa…… What the hell is going on……?” By now, it was the twentieth time. After storming out of the lodge, Young-in had experienced the bizarre phenomenon of walking and running in the complete opposite direction, only to somehow end up right back in front of the lodge. To make sure he wouldn’t get lost, he had kept the stream he remembered seeing when he first came up the mountain on his left and repeatedly checked his surroundings as he made his way down. Yet,…-

Chapter 13 What exactly was he? How did he know that I wasn't normal? How long had he been watching me? And how had he healed my body? And so on. Young-in slowly exhaled as he went over the dozens of questions rising in his head. Honestly, if the man weren't there, he was so physically exhausted that he could collapse and fall asleep immediately. But at this very moment, there was one fundamental question he felt he absolutely had to ask, no matter what else he put aside. “……What do you…-

Chapter 12 “……Sir, is that you?” Instead of turning the doorknob, however, Young-in reached out and grabbed the metal lever beside the chair. A few hours earlier, he had exchanged a radio message with Mr. Lee, who had said that he had some business to attend to and would be staying at his daughter’s house today. So instinctively, Young-in knew that the person outside the door was not him. Knock, knock, knock. At the sound of another knock, Young-in slowly swallowed. It’s okay.…-

Chapter 11 “……” I wonder if he's doing well. Young-in was worried about the rabbit that had followed the man. That little creature had been one of the few sources of joy in his lonely life in the forest. It had been like his only friend after spending so much time alone, staring at the walls. And now that it had disappeared so suddenly, someone as fragile as Young-in couldn't even bring himself to properly face the empty cage without feeling as though the ground beneath his feet…-

Chapter 10 When the large hand lifted the blood-soaked T-shirt, something the size of a finger wriggled beneath the smooth abdomen before disappearing from sight. Got you. The man's lips curved with excitement. “Even if it's a body that can sustain life well, that's still too foul-smelling to raise inside such a pretty body.” “Let's just give you a small reward today.” The man placed a hand on Young-in's shoulder. “W-What are you doing?” Sensing something ominous, Young-in…-

Chapter 9 Thud. With a dull, heavy sound, Young-in's head rang sharply. His vision blurred and warped. Ah… I must have hit my head on the bed… Lying with his head against the slanted floor, Young-in slowly blinked as he listened to the pounding ringing in his ears. A bitter laugh escaped him at the faint heartbeat he could hear—less than half as lively as the heartbeat he'd heard against the chest of the baby rabbit. I managed to avoid a wild bear in the forest, only to end up dying…-

Chapter 8 Was this man the one who drove the bear away? How could he make such an enormous beast keep its distance in an instant? And not only that—how could he appear without making a sound and remain so utterly composed? Ah, this isn't the time to think about that. I should thank him… But just as Young-in was about to speak to the man, he suddenly remembered the baby rabbit that had escaped from his arms. His face went pale. “Uh… W-Where did it go?” Even though the injured…-

Chapter 7 “Today, we’re going to pick wild raspberries.” Twenty days had passed since Young-in began living in the forest. Contrary to his expectation that he might suddenly be torn apart and killed by a wild animal one day, life in the forest had been peaceful. He liked having his little friend following him around at his feet, and the cabin owner, Mr. Lee, contacted him more often than expected out of concern for him, so he rarely had time to get bored. Once again, Young-in became…-

Chapter 6 “……” The rabbit’s belly, round and swollen from eating so much, rose and fell with every breath. Young-in watched it quietly for a while before slowly bending down and resting his cheek against the rabbit’s tiny chest. Thump, thump, thump. The heart beating inside that tiny chest, barely the size of his thumbnail, was racing with vitality, announcing to the whole world that it was alive. It’s warm. Young-in carefully pulled the little ball of white fur into his arms…-

Chapter 5 Since it was a trap set by a human, perhaps another human—himself—could somehow do something about it. Young-in knew that was nothing more than clumsy arrogance, but without hesitation, he lifted the trap. There had to be some way to release the lock. Even though more than half his cognitive abilities had been damaged, leaving his processing speed at less than half that of an ordinary person, perhaps because of his determination to save a life, Young-in concentrated harder than ever as…-
