Two Sides [Minchan]

Chapter 23

The beginning is always a mess, but it turns better day by day.

"So tell me more about this Minho guy?" Allen spoke up while looking outside the car.

Jeongin handed him a folder which contained Minho's file and details in it.

"Lee Minho, born in October 25th 1998, Scorpio. He has a big brother which he lost when he was a kid during the war. His father is Lee Junhyuk and Lee Rachel. He's now studying at Seoul Public College... which he isn't suppose to. And is part-time worker at Neoculture Technology Finest Kitchen." Jeongin explained as he passed down the files to the others.

"Ah Lee Junhyuk... The greatest scientist of all of Seoul. I wonder if Minho is as smart as his father though?..." Younghoon smirked as he kept reading Minho's information and details.

"Why isn't Minho supposed to be in this Public College?" Wonpil also asked.

"Because for someone who have high intelligence when it comes to technology, politics and leadership, he should be on Oxford. He was just set here because of the war that happened 10 years ago." Hyunjin explained while driving in speed limit.

Upon knowing who Minho really was, Allen was even more constructive in thinking and puzzling down through his knowledge.

"That means he should have been the future leader... Not Chan." The shortest boy added as he took a pic of some important info from the file.

"Exactly. We don't know yet what he is up to. He is secretive so we must prepare if anything happens. Minho will take over what belongs to him." Hyunjin added, seeing Seungmin who was listening very well and nodding, agreeing with them.

"And so, where are we heading?" Allen asked again, out of curiosity.

"To say hi to your cousin." Hyunjin answered when they finally crossed the border to The Shallows.

“What happens if it goes wrong?” Jeongin asked the elder ones, fidgeting with his fingers.

"We’ll just have to find out.” Younghoon answered as he put on some mask and cap for his own undercover.

They passed through the wooden and cheap houses, Allen had to look at the window and observed how the people move and interact with each other.

This was much worse than what he expected. The citizens around doesn’t have enough money to buy food. Some are already seen that they were kicked out of their apartment buildings.

Was this a current event around The Shallows? Allen had literally saw with his own eyes how they live in luxury while the people here had to survive everyday.

“Because of the war… people on this side of the city are suffering for years now. Beggars, street rats, trash and dirty creatures, that’s what they call us. I was lucky enough to be chosen by our school to be a part of the company as a scientist. Minho should have been too, but he still chose to stay with Felix, our friend that had been transferring from Australia and here back and forth.” Hyunjin started talking when he noticed what Allen’s expression was saying.

“So… he wanted to change…all of this?” Wonpil asked and looking at the other side of the car and towards the people of The Shallows.

“And this was also Chan’s goal.” Allen added, his eyes now landing on the front.

Hyunjin used the road with the dark oak trees surrounding, driving slowly to not gain so much attention from the passerbys.

“Heads up hyungs, we’ll be arriving at Minho hyung’s house any moment.” Jeongin smiled a little bit.
