[Please answer 1988] Sangmundong scandal

"Ah Ze hasn't eaten since morning." In the elevator, Minister Li explained to Liu Mingxi.

"Ah... I got it." Liu Mingxi nodded, expressing that he got it.

"—Ding Dong" the elevator arrived.

"This is the spare room card for Aze's room. He may be asleep now." Minister Li took out a room card from his coat pocket and handed it to Liu Mingxi directly, "Please."

"Well, let me try." Liu Mingxi actually didn't know much about it, so he could only say to try.

-0405

Liu Mingxi stopped in front of the door, checked the house number carefully, and tried to knock on the door after confirming that it was correct.

"—Boom"

no response.

Have you fallen asleep yet?

Liu Mingxi tried the spare room card, and the door opened with a beep.

"Aze, I'm coming in..."

After Liu Mingxi entered the room, he found that the light was on, but there was no one on the bed. When he listened carefully, there seemed to be the sound of water in the next room.

"Ah Ze, you are..." Before Liu Mingxi finished speaking, the bathroom door was suddenly opened.

Cui Ze came out of the bathroom with his upper body bare, holding a white towel in his hand, "... Nuna."

The child who usually looks thin is actually a little fleshy when you look closely, and he is getting taller and taller.

Liu Mingxi froze in place, and after a while he came back to his senses, and quickly turned his face away, "I heard that you haven't eaten all day, so come and have a look, Ze, you should put on your clothes first."

Cui Ze didn't do what she said, but bowed his head and moved closer.

Because of his sudden approach, Liu Mingxi subconsciously took a step back.Cui Ze stretched out his hand, but before touching her, Liu Mingxi gently pushed her away, "What are you doing?"

Cui Ze blinked, took the petals from her hair, and handed them to Liu Mingxi, "This."

Liu Mingxi froze for a moment, was it the petals left over from the wreath, "Ah...thank you."

Cui Ze looked at her and suddenly laughed, "Nuna, I'm going to change my clothes."

"Yes..." Liu Mingxi didn't react for a while, and turned around in a hurry when his eyes fell on the smile on Cui Ze's face, "Then I'll wait for you outside first."

Cui Ze looked at Liu Mingxi who was running away, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

This was a good start. He didn't completely treat him as a younger brother. He didn't want to stand by her side only as a younger brother at all.

……

A few minutes later, Cui Ze came out of the room, and saw Liu Mingxi leaning against the wall, looking bored.

"Nuna." Cui Ze came to her side in two or three steps.

Liu Mingxi looked down at the time, there was still time to eat, "Let's go down to eat."

"Okay." Cui Ze replied with a smile, his attitude and tone were very normal, as if nothing happened.

This made Liu Mingxi heave a sigh of relief, and realized that his reaction was too much. In fact, this is nothing, isn't it.

"Well, let's go."

Cui Ze looked at Liu Mingxi who was standing shoulder to shoulder with him, and silently made some small calculations.

It has to be done step by step, don't be too anxious, he needs patience.

The two came to the lobby of the hotel. Minister Li and the temporary agent were sitting on the chairs.

"Here we come. It happened that dinner was almost ready in the past. Mingxi, let's come together." Seeing Cui Ze and Liu Mingxi beside him, Minister Li was a little surprised by the result, but not so surprised.

"Okay." Liu Mingxi smiled and nodded.

In the restaurant of the hotel, there were already several people sitting in the chess academy, including those who came to participate in the competition this time.

"Master Cui is here too."

"Come and sit here."

However, the people in the Chess Academy expressed surprise at Cui Ze's appearance.

Cui Ze, who didn't even touch the water before the game, came to the restaurant?

In the eyes of everyone, Cui Ze followed Minister Li and sat down at the table. Of course, he did not forget to pull Liu Mingxi to his side.

Liu Mingxi was a bit unfamiliar to most of the people present, but no one tried to ask a question, everything was calm.

The banquet officially started.

"Nuna, is there water?" Cui Ze said.

"Here." Liu Mingxi poured him a glass of water.

After Cui Ze drank the water, he just picked up his chopsticks when he heard Liu Mingxi whispering beside him.

"If you have anything you want to eat, just tell me." Cui Ze's performance at home made Liu Mingxi think of the reason why he didn't want to eat out. Apart from the pressure of the game, maybe it was because his life was a fool. Attribute, think about it too, Cui Ze, who is admired by so many people, once this attribute is exposed...it will be interesting.

Cui Ze paused for a moment, then nodded, although it was not what she understood, but the goal was achieved, "Nu Na, I want..."

The scene of the two quietly biting their ears was watched by everyone.Apart from being surprised that their "Stone Buddha" finally showed signs of enlightenment, they had no extra thoughts.

After dinner, seeing Cui Ze return to the room with his own eyes, Liu Mingxi left with peace of mind.

Early the next morning, Cui Ze and his team went to the competition venue early.

Liu Mingxi and his classmates rushed to a small village in Myongui, Busan.

In this trip to Busan, apart from collecting folk songs, Liu Mingxi also had another purpose of coming, which was to interview someone.

On May 1980, 5, the Gwangju Incident was called the "18" incident by the government.

Words such as "riot" and "civil strife at the instigation of criminals who attempted to overthrow the state power" filled the ears of the citizens of Gwangju at that time, and they had no other choice but to live cautiously.It was not until June last year, after the mass protests, that the truth about 6 became known to the citizens step by step.

In 1980, thousands of Gwangju citizens who participated in the pro-democracy movement were sentenced to death on the charge of "the mastermind behind the Gwangju Incident", and their relatives never even saw their dead bodies.

What Liu Mingxi interviewed today was a family involved in the Gwangju Incident.

"I remember it was a sunny day. We Huien and Zhixi went to school as usual. The two of them were obedient and admitted to the best university in Gwangju. The family had no money and could only provide for one person. Huien reported She went to a normal school and got the highest scholarship, she said she likes to be a teacher... In the end, I waited at home for a long time, why didn't they come home..." The woman who spoke looked much older than her age , in a pair of cloudy pupils, the pain and struggle still linger around. Eight years have passed, and she still has not waited for her children.

Liu Mingxi couldn't help but her eyes were red, this was probably the indelible pain brought about by politics.

After the interview, several people looked a little heavy.

It is a cruel thing to tear open the scars of others little by little.

In the evening, Liu Mingxi and his party returned to Busan.

"I went up first, I don't have much appetite, so don't call me for dinner."

"Mingxi..."

Liu Mingxi forced a smile, "It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy."

"Ok."

Liu Mingxi returned to her room, she didn't turn on the light, and fell directly on the bed.

The room was dark except for the moonlight coming in through the windows.

Liu Mingxi heard about the profession of reporter from the seniors in the school.

When you choose this career, you must be mentally prepared, because you will encounter many unpredictable things on this road.

The duty of a reporter is to be faithful to the facts, and to fully show the whole process through the reporter's lens and pen, including the joys and sorrows of the presenter.

Most of what Liu Mingxi knew about the incident was from documents or the mouths of her predecessors. This trip to Busan was her first personal experience.

Her mood... how to put it, she is a bit complicated.

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, Cui Ze ended the ten-hour match and won with a narrow advantage of three sons.

"To find Mingxi?" Minister Li called to Cui Ze who was about to leave the hotel.

"Yeah." Cui Ze nodded slightly, still holding a bag in his hand.

"Well...then you go." Minister Li gave him a clear look.

"I'll be back later." Cui Ze felt that Minister Li's eyes were a little strange, so he couldn't help but say something more.

"Oh," Minister Li nodded meaningfully, "Young man, it doesn't matter if you are late, anyway, tomorrow is a day off."

Cui Ze, "..." He couldn't answer those words.

"Go quickly." Minister Li patted Cui Ze's shoulder, with an inexplicable...encouragement in his tone?

"…Um."

The more Cui Ze thought about it, the more he made a mistake. If he had known about the previous birthday gift, he would have prepared it earlier. However, the book was not available in Korea, so he asked the minister to buy it in Japan.

When he came to the hotel where Liu Mingxi was staying, Cui Ze stood there for a while, and suddenly remembered that he didn't know which room Liu Mingxi was staying at.

"Cui Ze sixth stage?!"

Cui Ze turned his face away, it was a strange man.

"Master Cui, Mingxi and I came together. We met once yesterday. Do you remember me?"

Cui Ze couldn't help frowning, Mingxi?

Is the relationship so good? I just called Pingyu.

……

-0517

Cui Ze found out Liu Mingxi's room number from the man in the downstairs hall who was suspected to be her classmate.

"—button"

The person on the bed moved when he heard the knock on the door.

"—button"

The knock on the door still rang.

Liu Mingxi threw off the quilt, got up from the bed, put on a coat and opened the door, "I don't want to eat dinner... Aze?"

Cui Ze still kept knocking on the door, his hands stopped in mid-air, "Why doesn't Nuna want to eat dinner?"

"...This." Liu Mingxi blinked, thinking about how to explain this problem to him.

Cui Ze lifted the paper bag on his handle and smiled at her, "How about eating this?"

Liu Mingxi glanced back and forth between Cui Ze and the paper bag in Cui Ze's hands, "What is that?"

"Chestnuts, stir-fried chestnuts in sugar." This is Liu Mingxi's favorite snack. Cui Ze accidentally saw it on the way back from the game. He stopped and bought it without thinking.

The author has something to say: I hope everyone buys their hands in time for Double Eleven!
