Chorong offered In-yeop a stick of cigarette but the latter refused. The fat guy was amused to see his leader who is addicted to smoking declined his offer and got candy from his pocket instead.

"What the hell," Chorong blurted out as he stared at In-yeop placing the candy inside his mouth. In-yeop just stared at Chorong with his signature deadpan expression and looks straight ahead.

"When did you quit smoking, boss?" Chorong asked only to hear silence from his leader. He also saw the bracelet he is wearing and it made his eyebrow raise. "What the hell is this?" The fat guy raised the hand with the bracelet, baffled at all the changes he is seeing in In-yeop.

"It's a bracelet, dumbass," In-yeop nonchalantly said in his low voice as he pulled his hand from Chorong's grip.

"Well, I know it is a bracelet. You never once wear those kinds of things because you said it itches your skin," Chorong said with his voice a little higher.

"Will you shut up? Your voice might be heard by the bandits," In-yeop said to dismiss the issue. Chorong pouted and looked at the person with binoculars, taking a look around bandits' hideout. They are now hidden in the forest near the hideout, studying the place to save the kids without them being noticed.

"How is it?" The bulky guy who is in charge of the mission asked the guy holding the binoculars.

"They are a lot, boss," he said and brought the binoculars away from his eyes to look at their leader. "But I think we have a chance."

"Aren't we going in now? It's taking you guys so long just to accomplish one mission," Chorong said as he yawned, showing them that he is starting to get bored. Given the thrill-seeker he is, their team always jumps into action whenever they receive a mission from Mr. Han. Yes, they do plan for the attack but they always go straight in and all in once they are at the mission's site.

"We have to be very careful. As much as possible, we won't cause a scene and retrieve the children without them noticing," the bulky guy explained. "But if everything goes south, we have no choice but to fight."

"Why not just fight at the beginning? I'm pretty sure that will happen given the number of ugly asses in there," Chorong said and smirked. In-yeop looked at Chorong and agrees with the guy with a smirk plastered on his lips. His body feels electrified to attack since earlier. He hasn't held a gun for so long and his fingers are itching to pull his gun's trigger.

"We are here to save the children. If we will be reckless, one life might be at risk. We have to prevent that as much as possible," the bulky guy explained more.

"We're wasting our time trying to observe the place," In-yeop said as he pushed himself away from the large tree he's been leaning on. "We need to get in now if we want all the children to be saved."

All the members of the organization who volunteered to be in the mission looked at each other. They silently agree with what In-yeop said and they admire the coolness and bravery displayed by the guy.
