I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

Chapter 211

While in the car, I looked at the map of the inside club prepared in advance in the back seat. There were elevators at either end of the building to easily move from the first floor to the fourth floor.

Elevators were always guarded by one guard, so it was said that the third and fourth floors, where the secret rooms and VIP rooms were located, could only be accessed through confirmation.

“Since it’s a party day, the internal control will be stronger than usual.”

“It would be. At other times, it would have been better to mix with ordinary people…”

I answered, folding the guide map.

“This time, we need to get as much attention as possible. No matter who the opponent is.”

That way, the drug dealers would approach you. Park Geon-ho, who was tapping the steering wheel with his finger at my words, opened his mouth.

“What should I call your name?”

“My name?”

I blinked at the sudden question.

“Anyway, our positions are bodyguards who came out for a night drink with the immature master, so we have to use honorifics, but… I think it would look a little weird if we didn’t call your name at all.”

“It means you have to come up with a false name.”

“It would definitely be convenient. It’s the same for me and Secretary Woo Seo-hyuk.”

“It would be better to decide now. Do you have any names you want?”

The name I want… After a moment’s hesitation, I spoke the most familiar name.

“Kwon Se-hyun… I’ll go with this.”

“Kwon Se-hyun?”

“You mean Kwon Se-hyun?”

It would be less awkward to use a familiar name rather than an unfamiliar name. I asked Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk, who showed a surprising reaction.

“Yes. Is it strange?”

“It’s not strange.”

Park Geon-ho, who smiled with an unknown meaning, nodded his head.

“That’s nice, Kwon Se-hyun. Easy to call. Then, from now on, until we leave the club, I’ll call you Kwon Se-hyun.”

“All right.”

There was nothing wrong with that.

“Since I and Secretary Woo Seo-hyuk aren’t very important, let’s make them moderately. What about Park Geun-ho (???) and Woo Soo-hyuk (???)?”

“…isn’t it too rough?”

“So what. You’re okay with that, right, Secretary Woo Seo-hyuk?”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Surprisingly, Woo Seo-hyuk accepted the alias ‘Woo Soo-hyuk’ without saying much. In this case, it meant that the two of them were quite compatible with it.

Having sorted out the necessary contents to some extent, we turned our attention to the club building that was slowly starting to show.

* * *

We parked the car in the parking lot right next to the club and came out to see a lot of people enjoying a Saturday night. Checking that 11 o’clock had passed on my watch, I went straight to the club.

“We can’t be late, let’s go right in.”

As the platinum blonde-haired me, which was rare in Korea, and the taller Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk approached the club building, the eyes of the people standing around turned to this side. Among them, a few women gathered together and their eyes met me as if to pass.

The women, who had been glancing at me with curious eyes, smiled as we met each other’s eyes.

Why were they smiling? Feeling embarrassed, I touched the nape of my neck and turned my head.

“For quick entry, the person who made the reservation came through the opposite door. Let’s go there.”

At Park Geon-ho’s words, as we all walked to the other side of the building, an entrance dedicated to party reservations appeared where the guards stood.

“Please show me your invitation.”

At the guard’s words, Park Geon-ho held out three purple invitations.

“Please go in.”

After checking, the guard stepped out of the way that was blocking the door. As I went down the stairs, I saw the main stage, where lights flashed with a thump, a sound that echoed through the walls.

“Let’s go straight to the elevator.”

Park Geon-ho, who created a gap between the crowds, said to me. Woo Seo-hyuk, like Park Geon-ho, stood close to me.

Cheerful shouts and laughter, loud tangled conversations, and the stink of perfume.

I frowned slightly at someone passing that was touching my waist or chest area. There were so many people, it was difficult to prevent all contact even if Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk were by my side.

When we got to the elevator on the far right inside, the guard bowed to us and asked in a stiff voice.

“Which floor do you want to go to?”

I left the reservation confirmation process to Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk as I continued to look around. It was then.

“Uh, kuak…!”

“……?”

A foreign sound could be heard faintly between the songs that resonated in my ears. I quickly turned my head in that direction, but all I could see was a crowd of people.

‘Certainly… there was a scream.’

My hands got cold with an ominous feeling.

Since the club itself was releasing drugs, there were enough people who came to enjoy it without knowing anything about it.

I frowned and shook my head. If you went up to the fourth floor, which wasn’t accessible to ordinary people, it would be more difficult to understand the situation.

What should I do? At that time, I found a double-decker railing that protruded greatly above the stage. If you went up there, you could see the entire first floor.

Having made the decision, I held Park Geon-ho’s hand as he was about to take out the invitation card and smiled slightly.

“It’s a bit shame to go straight into the room.”

Park Geon-ho, who quickly recognized the meaning of my words, asked with a deep smile.

“Is there any other place you like?”

Without saying a word, I headed straight for the stairs to the second floor. Despite my actions that I didn’t explain in advance, Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk followed suit.

There were several tables and sofas on the upper floor, which was much wider than expected. There must be a price to seat there too.

At my gesture, Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk leaned their upper body and their faces got closer.

“I heard a faint scream earlier.”

“Scream?”

“Yes.”

At my explanation, the eyes of Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk went cold.

“And if we go straight to the room right away, I think it will be difficult to understand the situation inside the club. In order to attract the attention of those involved, how about taking a look here?”

“Certainly that would be better. I’ll see if we can get a table.”

Park Geon-ho, who nodded his head, returned not long after he left. Fortunately, there were only a few tables left. After getting a seat without any major problems, I sat in the middle of the sofa and leaned my back for a long time.

“Then shall we try the money trick?”

It would be best to spend a lot of money to get the attention of club officials. There was nothing to worry about since it was Cheon Sa-yeon’s money. As soon as I gave the order with a bright smile, various wine bottles and snacks began to fill the table.

Various wine bottles shone brilliantly in the club lights. As I hummed and poured champagne, Woo Seo-hyuk, who was sitting next to me, grabbed my wrist lightly.

“Don’t drink too much.”

Ah, right. I’m Han Yi-gyeol now. As I put down the bottle awkwardly, remembering what happened in the past when I went out for a few glasses, Park Geon-ho covered his mouth and laughed.

“We’re not here to play, so please restrain yourself, Master Kwon Se-hyun.”

“…I know.”

I took a sip of champagne and focused on the stage I could see below. The song that had just changed had a more frantic, louder, and faster beat than before.

‘No one seems suspicious…’

Without taking my eyes off the floor downstairs, I sipped champagne and chatted with Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk. It was then that about 30 minutes had passed.

“Hello, Oppa.”

Gorgeous beauty in a red mini dress came up to us and greeted us. Behind her stood two women of similar style.

“I saw it a while ago and it was just the three of you playing with no other party. We are three, too. How about it? Would you like us to join?”

The woman, who proposed with her pretty voice, tucked her dark hair behind her ear and smiled.

Judging by the energy I felt… she was a B-rank talented person. By now, that woman must have felt our energy.

While carefully examining the other person’s appearance, I soon found an earring with a unique shape hanging from the woman’s ear. A diamond-shaped pattern filled with black in half. Watching the earrings twinkle in the light, I answered slowly.

“Whatever.”

When I retorted deliberately, the women sat down as if they had been waiting for my answer. The women, standing in the back, sat next to Woo Seo-hyuk and Park Geon-ho respectively and the only talented woman in a red dress was next to me.

“Huhu, aren’t you drinking too much?”

The woman naturally filled my glass with a bottle of champagne. I hoped it was okay to drink this much. It was very inconvenient to have to think about my weak drinking capacity every time I drank.

“It’s been a while since we came in.”

Ignoring the woman’s words, Park Geon-ho answered instead of me and took out a new bottle of wine from an ice bucket full of ice.

“Then, are our women here good at drinking? There’s a variety of wines and beers, so if you want something to drink, take and drink it.”

“Oh my, all of this? No snacks?”

“Of course. Say thank you to our master over there. It’s all from his wallet.”

Park Geon-ho, who broke the awkward atmosphere and opened his mouth playfully, pointed at me and squinted one eye. That jerk. As I smiled inwardly and waved my hand roughly, the women smiled broadly and stretched out their arms over the fruit snacks.

As the glass of wine began to move on the table, the hard air was quickly released. After the introduction with the alias we had set in advance, Park Geon-ho had a comfortable conversation with the woman sitting next to him as if he had known her for a long time and Woo Seo-hyuk opened his mouth occasionally.

“By the way, what’s your relationship the three of you have? It’s kind of strange to be friends.”

The woman who was laughing at Park Geon-ho’s joke asked a question with an expression of curiosity. I, who had been sitting there without saying a word until then, raised the corners of my mouth slightly and answered.

“Why? Do you like me?”

The woman was slightly flustered by the natural disrespectful treatment. My heart was pounding, but I couldn’t help it now because I’m in the role of the naughty master. Fortunately, the woman soon fixed her expression and nodded her head casually.

“A little bit? You are a rare handsome man and have good manners. Are you really friends? You look a little younger than Geun-ho-ssi.”

Park Geon-ho, who became Park Geun-ho due to his reckless naming sense, shrugged his shoulders lightly.

“He’s our cash cow. To be precise, the master’s father hired us. I work as a bodyguard.”

“Wa… so Geun-ho-ssi and Soo-hyuk-ssi are both bodyguards?”

“Correct. We’ve been working for a long time and we’ve become friends.”

The woman who sat next to Woo Seo-hyuk and kept glancing at him at the word bodyguard smiled shyly and put her words on it.

“Somehow your body… looks very good. I thought you are a professional athlete, but you are a bodyguard. I totally understand.”

“Right, right? Geun-ho-ssi’s biceps are no joke either. He is also tall.”

“I hear that a lot.”

As soon as Park Geon-ho accepted the compliment, the women burst into laughter again. In a friendly atmosphere with compliments from each other, I secretly looked around the arm or nape of the woman sitting next to me.

“You keep drinking. Why don’t you eat snacks too?”

The woman, who stopped me from bringing the champagne to my lips, as if it was her habit, smiled and stretched out her right hand, pulling the plate of fruit snacks closer to me.

“……”

In that brief moment, a small tattoo on the wrist appeared between several bracelets. Seeing that, I smiled slightly.

‘It was covered with a bracelet.’

Earrings and wrist tattoos with the same pattern. And B-rank talented person. This kind of evidence was enough.

“Stop playing around with petty jokes.”

I grabbed her waist and hugged her, leaning my upper body and whispering.

“I’m thinking of going upstairs soon. Will you follow me?”

How to behave in such a situation had been seen through that man. The woman, with her eyes slightly widened as if in surprise, nodded her head, blushing her cheeks slightly.

I glanced at Park Geon-ho and Woo Seo-hyuk, who seemed to have lost their mind somewhere.
