As they sat down, Joon Woo walked in, his eyes scanning the room.

Sijun, Joon Woo, and Rachel sat down in a makeshift conference room, surrounded by maps and plans for the rebuilding efforts. Rachel smiled, her eyes shining with determination.

"Alright, team. We've made good progress so far, but we need to discuss the next steps. Sijun, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the resource allocation plan."

Sijun nodded, pulling out a detailed report. "Based on my knowledge of the area, I recommend we focus on securing the eastern district first. It has access to a clean water source and is relatively safe from monster attacks."

Joon Woo leaned back in his chair, his eyes narrowing. "I agree. But we need to be careful. We don't know what kind of dangers are lurking out there."

Rachel nodded, making notes on her map. "I agree with both of you. Let's prioritize the eastern district and allocate resources accordingly."

As they discussed the plan, Sijun caught Joon Woo's eye, trying to convey a message without alerting Rachel. Joon Woo's expression remained neutral, but Sijun sensed a hint of understanding.
