Lovely Monsters Chapter 49

A large hole opened in his head.

And what poured incessantly, heavily, like a fierce rainstorm into that large hole was unmistakably despair.

A massive despair that could never be compared to anything else because it was given by the person he loved.

Countless despairs, which made the things done to him by the monsters feel pleasant by comparison, were shoved deep inside Kim Heejo. The pain originated from there. That is why it does not disappear. All Kim Heejo could do was simply suffer.

Until finally, everything vanished.

Choi Seongjin, who was sitting in the waiting room, was staring up at the ceiling with a bored expression. From beyond the wall he was leaning against, he could hear the voice of a staff member attending to a customer.

“Of course, in the event of death, the corpse is naturally disposed of free of charge.”

It seemed a newcomer had arrived through a regular’s introduction. The staff member continued the explanation in a kind voice. Choi Seongjin knew the words that would follow. They would say that while prices for similar services provided by other companies vary wildly, this establishment provides reasonable prices and services, and they would emphasize that they have operated without a single accident from opening until now.

“Yes, please feel free to trust us and visit anytime.”

Having heard that much, the customer seemed to have developed an interest in the auction. The staff member answered that the auction would be held in a week.

“How high does the amount usually go?”

“Usually it’s around 80 million, but it goes up to as much as 150 million. However, in the last auction, an item worth 300 million appeared.”

Choi Seongjin, who was about to take out a cigarette, flinched.

“…300 million, I’m curious. Is it possible to at least see what it looks like?”

“Yes, of course. I’ll lead you this way.”

Maintenance fees separate, price is 300 million.

The thing those two are going to look at now.

A graduate of a prestigious university.

A handsome face with a lean body.

A person with no ties, having no immediate family or even relatives.

Therefore, an item beyond reproach for selling off.

…Kim Heejo.

“…….”

Kim Heejo’s winning bid was a staggering 300 million.

Among the men sold off by Choi Seongjin—alias Choi Yujeong—there had never been a 300-million-won item, but thanks to Kim Heejo hitting the highest amount this time, Choi Seongjin was able to receive a substantial commission for his trouble. The 10% of the monthly maintenance fee that came in was a bonus.

In that way, Choi Seongjin ruined the life of Kim Heejo, who was poor but had lived diligently. Naturally, there was nothing Kim Heejo had done wrong. Kim Heejo had simply grown up in a difficult environment and was thirsty for human affection, so he fell for Choi Seongjin quickly. It wasn’t difficult for Choi Seongjin to express affection to the good-looking Kim Heejo, either. He said he loved him like a habit and spent a lot of time with him.

Of course, even while playing the role of a lover, Choi Seongjin was meeting two other men. And he sold them off for 100 million each. After that, Kim Heejo’s turn finally came.

The kind and sincere Kim Heejo probably hurried home after his volunteer work to meet the lover who would be waiting for him.

What was waiting there were the members of the organization Choi Seongjin belonged to. He didn’t see what happened afterward himself; he only heard the words passed on by others.

That the four bastards who won the bid were in such a frenzy to take turns with him from the first day.

They said that they didn’t just ejaculate, but did even worse things, so that later, urine would just trickle out of the back hole of Kim Heejo as he lay collapsed on the floor. While listening to that story, Choi Seongjin was searching on his phone for the next guy to sell off. Because, well, it was just that kind of business.

The organization Choi Seongjin belonged to traded in people. They held auctions in an underground auction house, and once a bid was won, the item would have a new name as of that day. Kim Heejo’s name became Room 12, taking after the room number.

Kim Heejo was their property like that until the owner got bored and disposed of him or handed the rights back to the organization. Of course, that was rarely the case.

Usually, they die. Whether it’s good luck or bad luck, I don’t know, but there are cases where a customer takes them out. No one knows what happens after that. If they are at the level of taking them out of here, they must be customers who are confident in things like body disposal.

The ones who won the bid for Kim Heejo were also four young masters who were more than capable of such things. Because even their tastes were so extreme that most places wouldn’t even accept them, they ended up coming all the way here. To a place where it didn’t matter what they did or even if they killed.

The future of Kim Heejo, who had fallen to such bastards, was obvious.

Because of that, Choi Seongjin tried not to think of Kim Heejo specifically. There was no need to care. Rather than that, it was better to care about the guy he was currently working on.

[Why is your reply so late?]

[Did something happen?]

Choi Seongjin, looking at the other person’s messages, pressed down on his furrowed brow. Since it hadn’t been long since they got to know each other, he had to reply promptly, but he hadn’t been able to. He came to his senses and recalled the information about the other person.

Severed ties with family after coming out. Suffering from depression. Strong dependency tendencies. Appearance is okay. However, there are a few close friends. It seems it will be difficult to cut off those relationships.

D-day is two months away.

The final plan was to date moderately, then suddenly say let’s break up, make him inform those around him that he’s been dumped, and then suddenly contact him at dawn to make him come out to a designated location. So that to anyone, it would look like contact became sparse due to the stress of the breakup.

Meanwhile, Choi Seongjin planned to perfectly clear his surroundings and vanish.

Well, then, I’ll have to move busily for the plan.

I don’t have time to be spacing out like this.

To Choi Seongjin, who was doing nothing despite knowing better, a staff member who had returned from maintenance spoke to him.

“Hey, the 300-million guy you brought in. It looks like he’s already lost his mind.”

“…What do you mean?”

“He lies down and says strange things. Something about monsters, a train.”

“…….”

“I wondered if we should drug him, but the young masters told us not to? They said that’s more erotic; anyway, they’re total psychos.”

Fuck, why are you telling me that shit.

Choi Seongjin, who almost said that, merely bit his lip.

In the end, that night, Choi Seongjin went to Room 12 where Kim Heejo was, lingered around stupidly, and peeked inside. Kim Heejo was naked. This was because they rarely gave clothes to the products. He probably hadn’t been able to wear clothes even once since coming here.

Watching the shivering Kim Heejo, the only thing Choi Seongjin could do was bring a clean blanket. But even then, he fled in a hurry for fear their eyes might meet.

And the next day, as usual, Kim Heejo greeted the young masters. They were the types who ordered plenty of expensive liquor every time they came and scattered tips like paper. They committed unbelievably cruel acts without hesitation, but everyone who came here was like that anyway. If they at least gave money, they were decent.

Because the young masters looked for Kim Heejo often, the staff members groveled around them, hoping some crumbs might fall their way. Since Choi Seongjin’s job also involved carrying liquor or managing products when he wasn’t luring people in, he inevitably moved back and forth near Room 12.

“Heuk, ahh, ah, aeuk, hik… uuueut!”

Usually, when passing nearby, he heard Kim Heejo’s painful groans. There was no big difference from the sounds coming from other rooms, but precisely because there was no big difference, Choi Seongjin hurried away every time. The next day, and the day after that, and the next day, and the next day, and the next day.

But accidents always happen suddenly. One day, through a crack in the door that had been slightly open, his eyes met Kim Heejo’s as if by a lie. He hoped it was an illusion, but once the gazes met, they stuck together like magnets and would not pull away.

“Yujeong, heu, Yujeong-ah… ah….”

Since Kim Heejo’s feet were shackled anyway, he couldn’t come out. Even though he knew that, Choi Seongjin was so horrified that his feet froze in place.

At this time, the men inside Room 12 grabbed Kim Heejo and climbed on top of his body. Kim Heejo, pinned down by the four bastards in an instant, couldn’t move a muscle and only struggled with the hand he reached out through the gaps between them.

“Why is this bastard acting up again? Anyway, he’s fun.”

Kim Heejo resisted, but as the drug-intoxicated men pinned down his limbs, he ultimately only wailed helplessly.
