Seventeen Imagines III

114. "It was Left"

Choi Seungcheol.

Code name Esucapsu Mi Gustastu.

He is the best secret agent who was employed to collect military secrets of one country and relay them to another.

With his exceptional people skills and emotional intelligence, he's always been inquisitive, open-minded, and ready to adapt to any situation. His unwavering resilience allows him to stay calm even in the face of immense danger and pressure, making him one of the top agents in the country.

And no one knows that. Of course, he couldn't be a "Secret Agent" and it wasn't a secret.

Anyway, Seungcheol, the great agent, was in a very bad mood today.

Dark clouds seem to be hovering above his head, and he couldn't care less about his surroundings or engaging in conversation. All he wants is to go home and treat himself to some delicious ice cream.

Unfortunately, luck isn't on his side at the moment.

"Ahh!" grimaced a guy who accidentally collided with Seungcheol.

In reality, Seungcheol had already dodged the guy. It wasn't his fault that the guy wasn't paying attention. However, since the guy had a bunch of friends with him, he arrogantly blamed Seungcheol.

"Hey!" the guy, Gregorio, yelled.

As Seungcheol turned around, the wind swept through the narrow alleyway, revealing his handsome face. With his dark eyebrows, round eyes, fair skin, and red lips, anyone would be smitten by his looks. But not Gregorio.

"Why don't you watch where you're going?! Do you not have eyes!" Gregorio shouted, using lines that you'd typically find in a cheesy novel for a third-rate villain.

Seungcheol squinted his eyes at Gregorio and the other three guys accompanying him. Without uttering a word, he turned around and brushed them off.

Gregorio shouted in anger, "You actually ignored me! Hey, get back here!" He angrily grabbed an empty coke zero can and hurled it towards Seungcheol's head.

Tak!

Seungcheol immediately halted his steps.

"Get your sorry self back here! You useless jerk!" Gregorio warned with a menacing tone.

Seungcheol took a deep breath before reluctantly turning around.

"Are you even going to apologize for hitting me?" Gregorio demanded an apology from Seungcheol.

However, Seungcheol remained silent, refusing to respond.

"Hey!" one of Gregorio's henchmen interjected. He pointed at Seungcheol and exclaimed, "Do you have any idea who Gregorio is? He's the most respected boss in this town! If you don't show him respect, he'll teach you a lesson right away."

Gregorio approached Seungcheol, giving him a menacing glare. "You need to learn some respect, kid," he said, before swiftly raising his right hand and slapping Seungcheol across the cheek.

Pak!

Seungcheol's eyes widened in shock. 'This guy...!' he thought angrily.

At first, Seungcheol had no intention of fighting back against these pathetic bullies. But they had crossed a line that Seungcheol could never forgive.

Consumed by rage, Seungcheol locked eyes with Gregorio and charged forward, unleashing his fury upon the four men.

Four against one. Seungcheol emerged victorious, but his triumph was short-lived as the police arrived and apprehended them all.
