Sacrificing oneself

20

Bang Chan walked down the long hallway in a hurry. He stopped in front of the wooden door, knocked on it, and entered Lee Soo Man's office.

- General Lee, our military helicopter spotted a group of survivors on the roof of Sunan Hospital

Hearing this, the old man frowned.

- How many are there?

- About seven people, what do you order us to do?

- Sergeant Changbin is still at the base?

- Yes, General

- Put on your gear and go on a rescue mission

Waking up in the morning to the sound of the door opening, Jungeun sleepily rubbed her eyes and assumed a sitting position. Looking at the two people in white coats who disturbed her sleep, Choi recognized Nurse Sana.

- Good morning Jungeun-ah, let me introduce you to Doctor Kim Namjoon

After the woman's words, she turned her gaze to the doctor. Noticing how he was looking at her with interest, Jungeun shifted uncomfortably on the hard mattress.

- Hello - she said, nodding her head slightly

- I see that you are worried, Jungeun, I assure you that I will not harm you - Kim said with a smile

Looking at the dimples on his cheeks, she involuntarily remembered Saran's smile.

- Why are you keeping me here?

- We are not keeping you here, you can leave at any time

- But why am I here? - Choi asked, looking at Sana in bewilderment

Seeing how the doctor and the nurse exchanged glances, Jeun felt nervous.

- You were bitten and your case is different from the usual - Namjoon continued after a short pause - according to our observations and your completed tests, we have found that your body has overcome the virus

- What do you mean?

Seeing the teenager's confusion, Minotazaki intervened in the conversation.

- Doctor Kim means that you have immunity Jungeun

Wide-eyed at such a statement, Choi looked at her bitten hand, which was bandaged.

- But how... - still looking at her hand, she said quietly

- From a scientific point of view, we don't know, but from a faith point of view, it's a blessing - Namjoon answered

- A blessing? - Jungeun finally looked up at the man again and asked

- Thanks to you, we have a chance to find a cure

- Of course, only if you agree - Sana quickly added

" They want to make you a guinea pig "

And again, she heard the voice in her head. Trying not to show it. Jungeun said:

- I won't be your test subject

- That's not what we meant - Sana replied, looking at Namjoon in panic

- Then what?

- We're just asking you to help us save as many people as possible

- How will I save everyone, Doctor Kim?

- We need your blood

Jungeun chuckled and hissed angrily:

- I repeat, I will not become your test subject

Without taking his eyes off her, the man said:

- We will give you time to think
