Chapter 360: Leave
People here like to chop the octopus and eat it raw, but Daejun always eats it after it is cooked with instant noodles, or it is grilled slowly in a charcoal basin. His tastes seem to be a bit out of step with those around him, and Daejun himself is aware of this, so he always wants to leave here and go to a place where he can "adapt" to himself, because he thinks that this way he might be able to know who he is.
The girl in front of him didn't know what was going on his mind, and all his attention was on the grill where he was making a sound, and Dajun smeared the whole octopus with the seasoning sauce, and the fragrance attracted the attention of many people.
When it was done, he cut it up and put it on a plate and gave it to everyone, but he didn't eat it himself. He felt that since this group of people were guests, he should also entertain them for Uncle Jin.
The other two idols seemed to be watching Uncle Jin and them fishing on the other side, and from time to time there were a few exclamations, which were very novel.
Daejun didn't go over to help, but sat on the bench at the bow of the boat and smoked, his body did not reject the taste of nicotine, apparently he had a habit of smoking before.
He stared at the water in a daze, and after a while, the girl named Mina came up to him again.
“oppa。。 Can I call you that?" The girl stood beside him a little reservedly, holding something similar to a CD in her hand, as if she wanted to give it to him.
Dajun suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart when he heard the girl call him like this, he felt that he must have been called that by someone before.
"Thank you for your continued interest today, this is our group's album for you as a souvenir. "Mina should be a shy girl, and her little face involuntarily blushed when she delivered something.
"Thank you. Dajun didn't refuse and accepted the small gift.
The girl bowed to him again before returning to the group. If there is no aftermath, maybe the intersection between the two will end here.
In the evening, the group got off the boat and went to the town's homestay to rest, and Uncle Jin also docked his boat in the harbor and began to cook dinner.
At the humble dinner table, Dajun told the other party his plan. Uncle Jin understood his mood very well, and didn't say anything to keep it, but just went to the cabin and took a cloth bag out and stuffed it into his hand.
"This is the rent that those people gave me during the day, you can use it as a fare. ”
"How's that going to work?" Dajun rejected.
"How can you leave without money?" Uncle Jin waved his hand, as if he didn't want to say more.
"Thank you then. Daejun bowed to him.
The other party sighed, sat down again, picked up the bowl and ate the humble meal on the table.
It rained a little during the night.
The next day, the road in the town became a little muddy, Dajun got off the boat with an old travel bag containing a few clothes, and Uncle Kim behind him watched him go away, the sea breeze blowing, with a bit of salty smell.
Soon Dajun arrived at the bus stop in the town, but it was empty, and the silence around was terrible, except for the sound of the sea breeze blowing the animals and plants. He suddenly had an inexplicable feeling, as if he would disappear from this world in the next second.
He stood in a daze, quietly listening to his heartbeat at this moment, as if only by doing so could he feel that he was real.
After a while, there was a sudden sound of a car engine in his ears, and Dajun looked towards the end of the road, but saw several large vans coming this way. One car slowly stopped in front of him, and after the window was rolled down, he saw several idols from yesterday sitting inside.
"Where are you going, young man?" asked him a middle-aged man, who had been following a few girls when he was on the boat yesterday, and seemed to have been hired to take care of them.
Dajun was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer, but he had been receiving information from the outside during this time, and after a little hesitation, he replied, "Go to the city." ”
The man looked at him stupidly, looking like a countryman, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Get in the car, we just happened to enter the city." ”
"Is that the cost of the journey?" Dajun knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
"No, you can't get up, we're in a hurry. The man was amused by his words, and thought that Daejun was really a hillbilly who had never been in the city.
Dajun didn't say more, how can there be a reason not to sit in a free car?
As soon as the car door was closed, he felt several lines of sight behind him focus on him.
"It's you. When I first saw it on the road, I wasn't sure. A familiar voice sounded behind him, but it was Mina, the girl who gave him a CD on the boat yesterday.
"Thank you for taking me aboard, if I have to wait for the bus, I guess it will be a long time before I get on the bus to the city. Dajun kind of understood at this time that it should be Mina who saw him and asked the driver to carry him.
"You're the uncle who grilled squid on the boat yesterday, aren't you?" said another girl, "My name is Sana, and your cooking is delicious, except that a few pieces of meat are grilled." ”
Probably thinking that what she said was a little inappropriate, after realizing it, the girl stuck out her tongue cutely.
"I'm sorry, Sana, she's not woken up yet. The last girl in the car said apologetically to him.
Daejun thought that their accents were strange, and they seemed to be distinctly different from the people he had seen, but he didn't say anything.
"Guy, what are you doing in Seoul?" the middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat suddenly asked.
"Find someone. Dajun thought for a moment and replied.
"Relatives?"
"Sort of. ”
"Young people should come out and break through, it's not good to stay on the boat all the time. ”
Daejun was silent and didn't answer, but the other party didn't seem to intend to end the conversation between strangers.
"When I was as young as you, I also longed to go to the city every day to live, and the conditions at that time were not so good. The man spoke with great interest, and seemed to regard Dajun as the object of confiding.
Dajun talked to him without a match, but his mind was thinking about his own business. When he went to the city, the first priority was to find a place to stay, relying on the money given to him by Uncle Jin, he should be able to survive for a few days, but if he wanted to live there, he had to find a job to make ends meet. But now the key is that he has no identity, he doesn't even know his name, just like a person who appeared out of thin air.
If he didn't want to be invited to tea by the police, he had to have a proper identification.
Daejun was worried about these things, and suddenly felt the speed of the car slow down.
"Guy, it's Seoul ahead, have you figured out where to get off the bus?"
"Don't bother, I'll do it right here. ”
The man seemed to have a good impression of him, and when he left, he gave him a business card, saying that if he wanted to find a job in the future, he could call it. Dajun took it, thanked him, and watched the car gradually drive away.
