“You said the door to Car 1 opened, right?”
“Yes!”
I immediately moved with the others to Car 2. Baek Saheon hurried out and wore a triumphant expression.
“I did my best to persuade the people in Car 1 to open the door. Ah, of course, all the passengers helped together too, …‘Forerunner’!”

-And while he was at it, he must have enthusiastically told them all kinds of tales of Mr. Roe Deer’s exploits!
-Ah, it would have pleased me to hear those fascinating stories here, but have no fear. A Good Friend always chooses to stay together with a friend!

“Then let’s talk to them like th—”
“B-but!”
Baek Saheon hurriedly stopped me.
Don’t tell me….
“The, the door. It closed again.”
