Staring at the screen of his mobile phone and often frowning, Kan murmured, upset, „I'm sure it's somewhere here, but I can't find that damn place." Thus, too focused on the red point he was seeing on the screen, Kan ignored where he was going and got stuck in the mud from the river shore where he was at that moment. This drove the detective crazy, who suddenly hissed through his teeth, „Ah, Oh Yoon Suk, ah! I'll put my paw on you and I'll see what you say after that!" Then, struggling to take his legs out of the mud trap where he was, Kan looked around at the tall cattail that was surrounding him from everywhere. Thus, he saw a head appearing through the cattail, something that scared him to hell.
The „head" instead looked in amazement at the detective, asking Kan shortly after this, somehow confused, „Detective Kan, you here?" Then, seeing Kan looking at him like the dog at the cat, Yoon Suk smiled and got out of his hideout made from cattail.
Seeing his younger colleague just staying and not helping him, Kan squinted at him. Then, he growled, „Will you stay there for long?"
„And? What should I do if I don't stay here? To catch rabbits like you?"
Kan didn't taste the joke but showed his teeth to Yoon Suk. After that, deeply breathing in to calm down, he said through his teeth, „What about helping a poor soul like me instead of catching rabbits?"
Yoon Suk smiled. Then, heading toward the detective with his arms folded over his chest, he jokingly said, „Why should I waste my time helping others when I can catch rabbits and cook them later?"
„Rabbits?" Growled Kan furiously. „On the river shore?" Yoon Suk nodded yes. „You have lost your mind for sure because you catch fish and not rabbits at the river, Oh Yoon Suk! And... help me get out of here until I burn this world to the ground if I get angry!"
„If you say so!" Yoon Suk calmly replied, still smiling. After that, grabbing Kan's arm, he pulled him toward him, taking him out of the trap of mud where he got stuck. Then, when he made sure that he wouldn't drop Kan into another trap or hole, he made a sign to Kan to follow him to the place where he had stood hidden by then, lying on the grass and looking at the sky while two fishing rods were already prepared, waiting for the fish that wasn't stupid to let himself be caught in the hook where a poor earthworm was.
Arriving at the place where he had stood before, Yoon Suk sat back on the warm bed of herbs and other things, which he brought with him to have where to sit. Then, he lay on that „bed" with his hands under his head, staring at the sky again, „laziness" that has been his „friend" all that year since he hit the pike, right after SolHi was sent behind bars.
Seeing Yoon Suk so calm when he passed through all the circles of hell to get there, Kan growled something unpleasant about his younger colleague. After that, feeling a cold wind coming from the river, he pulled the coat closer to his body to warm himself a little. Something that Kan didn't manage to do eventually. Only the tip of his nose turned suddenly red, something that made him look comic: like a clown at the circus.
Eventually, realizing that sitting next to Yoon Suk would have been warmer, Kan approached him. He even sat on that bed of herbs, looking in front at the two fishing rods, whose sticks were stuck into the river shore. Not only did the detective see this there, but also a black folding chair, a not-that-big white bucket, and, next to that bucket, Kan saw a small golden tin can, which the „fisher" probably took with him to keep his bait inside... What bait? A few earthworms, scabby and skinny, which probably a hungry chicken would have also ignored if meeting them on his way, but not Yoon Suk, who considered them good for catching fish.
Seeing the can, Kan found it interesting. That's why he stood up and, approaching it, he squatted next to it. Looking into the tin can and seeing the earthworms undulating one above the other, the detective cooked his nose. After that, smiling, he asked Yoon Suk, „Friends of yours? Or maybe... have you caught them at the river?"
