Neurolink System in the Modern World

Chapter 283: Mission and Distraction



I read online that the North has one of the lowest carbon footprints on the planet. It\'s quite a contrast to South Korea, which has a lot of infrastructure.

The North seems to be the more environmentally friendly party when we compare our impact on global warming.

Regarding the threat of nuclear warheads, to be honest, I don\'t really believe they have one. The technology in this place was at least 30 years behind ours.

It would be a miracle if they could really produce that many nuclear warheads, and even if they did, it would likely be a much weaker version compared to those possessed by the US, Russia, and China.

"Looks like we are far from the city," I said with a playful tone, glancing at Rei Mei, who stood in front of me.

She was engrossed in studying some kind of compass, and a map was spread out in her hands. It was clear she had come well-prepared. Despite her occasional eccentricities, she seemed almost like a girl scout in her readiness for this mission.

"No, this is actually normal here," Min-Hee replied, her eyes glancing anxiously at the surroundings.

A shadow passed over her face, revealing a hint of unease. It was as if the memories of the difficult life she experienced here years ago had surfaced, still fresh in her mind.

I gently placed my hand on her shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze.

"I\'m here with you, Min-Hee. Whatever happened in the past, I will make sure nothing harms you again."

She looked at me, and a small, appreciative smile broke through the tension on her face. .net

"Thank you, Oppa," she replied, her voice carrying a soft, heartfelt tone. She leaned in closer, gently taking my hands and bringing them to her cheek.

She started rubbing my hands into her skin, as if seeking comfort in my warmth.

Glancing at Rei Mei and the eye-patch girl, their reactions were quite clear. Rei Mei looked visibly jealous, with a subtle hint of envy in her expression.

On the other hand, the eye-patch girl looked at us with evident disgust.

Regardless, Min-Hee, innocent as ever, didn\'t find her actions weird at all.

In fact, she became even more attached to me after our passionate night together. It was like she had turned into a human magnet, and I was the only metal in the world.

"So, where is the base?" I asked, attempting to shift the atmosphere after seeing Rei Mei\'s squinting eyes.

She seemed really frustrated. I couldn\'t blame her; she was the first to introduce herself to me, but now I had another favorite girl instead.

Rei Mei sighed, her frustration really obvious from her body language . "It\'s not far from here. Let\'s focus on the mission."

"I see, Min-Hee, let\'s go now," I said, gently patting her head.

To my surprise, she didn\'t pull away; instead, she transformed the rubbing gesture into a hug. Given the significant height difference, her embrace only reached my upper waist. It was an unexpected and untimely gesture.

"Min-Hee, stop acting like a spoiled brat! Did you forget that we\'re here to rescue your sister?" Rei Mei\'s voice echoed with frustration as she scolded Min-Hee, her annoyance obvious in the sternness of her tone.

Min-Hee\'s grip on me loosened suddenly, and a rosy blush painted her cheeks

"I\'m sorry," she mumbled, her apology hanging in the air.

Observing Min-Hee\'s pitiful face, Rei Mei seemed to feel guilty judging by her expression.

"It\'s alright, just stop fooling around with Oppa," she spoke up and lead the way.

As we moved forward, there was a bit of tension in the air, filled with unspoken emotions. Handling relationships during a mission was proving challenging, especially with my manipulation not working.

Fortunately, Rei Mei finally broke the awkward silence. Her voice softened as she spoke to Min-Hee, "I\'m not saying this just to be mean, Min-Hee. We\'re here for a serious reason, and your sister\'s life is at stake. We can\'t afford distractions. I\'m sorry if I shouted at you back then."

Min-Hee nodded, her eyes downcast. "I know, I just got carried away."

The eye-patch girl, who had observed the entire exchange with a mix of curiosity and disdain, chimed in, "What an ignorant girl, "

Rei Mei shot her a sharp look, "And you should learn to mind your own business."

The eye-patch girl merely scoffed, turning her attention back to the path ahead.

\'What a hassle,\' I sighed to myself as I continue to scout the area.

"Wait," I shouted.

"What is it?" Rei Mei asked.

"This place is filled with landmines," I replied. My intuition kicked in as I examined the ground, and with my acute senses, I could see the uneven and unnatural soil.

Rei Mei\'s eyes widened in shock, and she instinctively took a swift step backward .

"You lead the way, Oppa," she said, relinquishing the leadership role she had assumed earlier.

I rolled my eyes; despite all her compass and preparations, the moment danger presented itself, she turned to me for guidance.

"I\'ll handle this," a smile formed on my face as I grabbed Min-hee, carrying her like a princess while hovering over the land-mines. As for the other two, they floated awkwardly, attempting to balance themselves.

"OPPA! You\'re so unfair!" Rei Mei protested, her voice carrying a tone of frustration and clear dissatisfaction with my obvious favoritism .

Min-Hee, on the other hand, was on cloud nine. She blushed so intensely that her face turned red. I could feel her heartbeat quickening, and her breathing became deeper. She must be entertaining some lewd thoughts to elicit such a reaction.

\'She\'s already addicted to me,\' I chuckled to myself.
