"yeah, sleep!" a voice yelled, waking kaho. she had overslept and was met with the sight of jae-ha awake and looking better.

"hello, dear."

"jae-ha!" she flung herself on him. "i was so worried!"

his eyes widened and for a brief moment, he froze, startled that she had hugged him. but when he snapped out of it, he wrapped his arms around her.

"i'm fine..."

"good. no, go back to sleep." she pushed him down on the floor and covered his eyes, trying to force him to sleep.

"the drug... if it's strong, more symptoms will show up later." yun said.

"it's fine, i'm used to drugs."

"what?!" kaho moved away.

"ah, no i lied."

"dangerous! dangerous!" zeno and kaho exclaimed, one in a cheery tone and the other, in an accusing tone.

"it's probably best if we don't let you go outside." kija suggested.

"we need to discipline you so you don't do something like this again." hak said.

"shall we tie him up?" yun asked.

"eh...?" jae-ha asked, hearts in his eyes. of course, the masochist in him jumped out.

"no perverted thoughts!" kaho smacked him on the head. 

"wait just a— with my current strength i wouldn't be able to resist:.." jae-ha confessed and in the end they ended up tying him anyway.

"i wonder if jae-ha is sleeping now." kaho muttered as the group, excluding shin-ah, walked down the street.

"hopefully the rope will keep him down. i tie knots well." yun boasted as the group came to a stop.

"what are you not good at?" kaho mumbled.

"last night, jae-ha fell unconscious here." kija pointed out and yona looked around, conscious of her surroundings.

"what's wrong?" kaho asked.

"it feels like someone's watching us."

"miss, it looks like there's something over there." zeno said and kaho let out a gasp, running forwards. a man was laying face first in water. it seemed like he was dead and floating.

"what happened to this person?!" yun asked another man that was crouched by the water.

"he probably slipped because of the rain." he replied, pulling the man out the water. "move aside. i need to clean it up."

the man left with the dead man, leaving the group to discuss what they had just seen.

"i got a good look at him and i don't think it was just the rain that did this." kaho told yun.

"yeah... his fingernails were discoloured and his teeth were falling out."

"the people living here are really strange." hak said, looking around the place.
