....Hello....?

Seung-yeon
Hello?

Unknown
Can you see this?

Seung-yeon
Yes, I can

Unknown
....Finally connected. Thank god.

It's not everyday you get a text from a stranger.

I'm flustered myself. I found a smartphone at the subway station. But all it had was this messenger app.

I want to find the owner, but I don't see any contact info or call records...

I've been sending messages with this app but no reply....

All I seen is an address and important-looking numbers saved in notes.

I'd like to go there myself but I'm currently abroad...

Seung-yeon
First.... who are you?

Unknown
Me? Oh sorry. I didn't even introduce myself.

I'm just... a student studying abroad. I'm Korean.

I could tell you my name, but it doesn't really matter.

You won't find me on search engines. ^^;

But, anyways...

Can you help me find the owner of this phone?

I know you're surprised to have someone suddenly pop up and ask you a favor like this.

But still...

I'd appreciate it if you could help.

Seung-yeon
Why are you so obsessed with finding the owner? You can just give it to the police or the post office.

Unknown
Well.... normal people won't be able to understand...

To be honest, I have a religion.

My religion says that you must not miss any opportunity to do good, no matter how small.

Well, some say that it's just being nosy.

But I'm not like normal people.

I can't help but think about how stressed the owner might be...

It's really a safe place. If you feel unsafe, you can turn around.

I know the area. It's developed.

Please?

Seung-yeon
Fine... I'm leaving right away if it feels sketchy.

Unknown
You trust me...

Thank you!

Just sec. I'll send you the address.

Found it.

Seung-yeon
There is a password door lock.

Unknown
Are you there? ^^ See. Nothing strange.

Is there a password lock on the door?

Seung-yeon
Yes.

Unknown
I'll send you the digits. Try it.

Seung-yeon
The door's open.

Unknown
Good. Why don't you go inside?

Seung-yeon
Can I just enter a stranger's house?

Unknown
You can just leave a note. I'll give you my info.

If something happens, you can just show my messages. That'll do.

Seung-yeon
Then... Alright.

Unknown
Thank you•••
