As expected, a meeting was scheduled two days after Seonghwa returned to the headquarters.
They didn't want to make it too big, so the meeting was held in the presence of the majors of units one, two and five and their captains and Daeryeong*.

Although it was only a formality meeting to show their conscientiousness, Seonghwa repeated everything he had written in the reports; even the details of the last month that they were quarantined at the border after returning from the north.
No one mentioned the women who were killed; Certainly, the disease and danger that threatened the lives of the people of the country had priority over a few dead whores.

Colonel Chang was silent for most of the meeting, listening to Seonghwa. He never had a strong presence in military ceremonies, but the news of his victories was constantly heard. To San, he was a mysterious man.

At the end of the meeting, Colonel Chang was the first to leave the room. Everyone saluted and waited for him to leave.

Major Lee immediately took a cigarette from his coat and lit it, like he had been waiting for this moment whole time.

"We didn't have a opportunity to greet properly, I'm Major lee from Unit-5. Hope you're doing well, Major park."

Seonghwa nodded heavily: "Ah..yes yes...thank you." He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

San realized that Seonghwa was more tired than he seemed. What took three hours for him to tell was the result of six months of a hard experience.

"We shall leave." Major Lee stood up then looked at Hwan, who was standing in the corner of the room restlessly, waiting for a right moment to run and look for his dear friend throughout the mansion.

"By the way, Major Choi, how are things going with our previous Captain? It's not too late. If you regret it, you can return him whenever you want. I know how much of a trouble that kid might be." He laughed.

Seonghwa sat properly in his seat and looked at San.

"You trained him well, Major. he's a good soldier i don't think I'd regret it."

Major Lee puffed his cigarette with an obvious shock on his face.
"Well...if you say so."

He turned towards Hwan and said: "let's go captain."

"Is he fine?!...Major choi." Hwan asked suddenly with a worried look on his face.

San stared at him for few moments. Was he Wooyoung's lover?

"Yes. Yes he's perfectly fine." He smiled peacefully.

*Daeryeong is the korean equivalent for the word "Colonel".
