Chapter 41: 3.3 – Contrabass Solo – Crocodile Cave

Is there any echo in Kwon Taek Joo's dream, the sound of the wind or the heartbeat of a giant creature? The successive melodious melody seemed to be interrupted, causing the icy air to vibrate splendidly.

It seems that someone is playing a musical instrument. It's obviously a stringed instrument but it doesn't have a brilliant tone and as much technique as a violin. That heavy sound pressed on Kwon Taek Joo's body. It's sad but not uncomfortable at all. His exhausted body became even more tired, his consciousness also gradually became vague.

Although he knew that he should not and could not be like this in a situation, Kwon Taek Joo fell into a deep sleep. No more worry or fear, he seemed to enter a perfect and safe space in that moment.

Kwon Taek Joo's eyes closed tightly but he still felt the cold. He slightly lifted his eyelids and closed them again. The sun fell on his face, not hot but very bright. Kwon Taek Joo raised his hand to cover his eyes and looked around.

The first thing he saw was the fireplace. The fire was about to go out but the embers were still there. A large fur blanket is spread out in front of it and a white sofa. The feeling of the quilt is quite familiar, so it seems that Kwon Taek Joo's lying on it is not an illusion. He still doesn't know where the dream came from and where it is realised.

Did you just fall asleep like that? Maybe Kwon Taek Joo fainted for a while. He groped through past memories and looked around him. I don't see Zhenya anywhere.

Kwon Taek Joo raised his body. A smouldering pain came. Every part of his body, even his knuckles, was sore. When Kwon Taek Joo felt severe pain from his muscles, the past things came to his mind one after another. Is it all real?

Kwon Taek Joo shyly stroked his face. It's crazy. How could he be crushed by a man and ejaculate in the hand of someone who would not be happier if he tore him immediately? Nor is he injected with drugs like when he was on Olkhon Island. He had reached orgasm many times while sober and was abused. Even if it's a dream, isn't it too embarrassing and cruel?

"You call it rap? Do you like it too? How many times have you climaxed?"

Zhenya's mocking smile in the dream appeared every day. Kwon Taek Joo's two teeth naturally gritted each other. Not only that, he also slept very well and comfortably. If only he had been injected like last time or even drunk, his feeling would have been worse. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head in shame.

He sat up. Something slowly came out from the inside of his ass as soon as he took a step. Kwon Taek Joo bit his dry lower lip because of that terrible feeling, his forehead wrinkled bitterly. After a while of awakening, Kwon Taek Joo realised that there was some kind of liquid under his lap. His stomach was full of sticky semen.

"…Damn it."

The hand clenched into a trembling fist with anger, Kwon Taek Joo crankedly punched the rigid wall in front of him, but the anger could not be resolved at all, if only he could have died at the hands of Zhenya at that time, he would not be as embarrassed as now. Perhaps this is the reason he kept Kwon Taek Joo alive.

He hit his head against the wall as if torturing himself. Nothing has changed either. He was still breathing stupidly, only the discomfort was more obvious.

Kwon Taek Joo lowered his shoulders and let out a long breath and raised his head. He looked back at the strange space in front of him, this is not the Korean embassy anymore. Kwon Taek Joo has goosebumps, not only because he is naked.

He strode hurriedly towards the window. Inside his ass, there was a tingling pain every time his legs met, the small hole was also soaking wet. Kwon Taek Joo slowly walked so that the flesh would not rub against each other and then suddenly ran to his forehead against the window. The eyebrows that had been frowned like a habit were now completely relaxed, because of an unbelievable sight even when Kwon Taek Joo was witnessing it with his own eyes.

Everywhere, from all sides, everywhere there is only snow, snow and snow. He couldn't even see a tree, even to feel the distance was really difficult because a pure white colour hit his eyes. A view that is no different from the vast sea.

Kwon Taek Joo also doesn't know how he got to this far because there is no memory of him moving here with his legs. His consciousness has not been clear since meeting Zhenya at the embassy. There was a time when he felt that the air and temperature were changing, even though it was shocking to see such a strange scene. After all, where is this hell, how many days have passed?

Kwon Taek Joo was dimly aware of reality, but his nape suddenly tightened. A fragrant scent spreads. He reflexively turned his head and caught his blue eyes.

Zhenya had just finished taking a shower with thicker wet hair than usual. The body does not have a fabric to reveal ugly objects between the legs. Kwon Taek Joo's stomach seemed to be tense when he faced that huge weapon. Was that thing put inside of you? Kwon Taek Joo's ass unconsciously crankled in a sharp pain.

Zhenya is back as usual, even Kwon Taek Joo's eyes are calm and cold. The traces left on Kwon Taek Joo's body prove that all the things that have passed are true, but his extremely casual face and clean appearance seem to be teasing as if he had a dream.

Kwon Taek Joo took a step back and frowned angrily. Suddenly the cold window sill touched his back. With no more room to step back, he clenched his fist into a Defence fist and glared at Zhenya as if he was about to tear him apart.

Zhenya spoke indifferently.

"Why don't you take a shower, your so dirty."

He nodded towards the bathroom. Kwon Taek Joo's whole body is wet and sticky, he really needs to take a shower.

However, Kwon Taek Joo's vigilance did not subside. Will a mouse cornered will look like that when it meets the cat? Just a light movement is enough for it to raise its feathers and rush out to attack. But Zhenya did not hesitate to reach out, that hand was violently knocked before it could touch Kwon Taek Joo. The scratch on the back of the hand appeared to scribble and then reddened.

'Don't touch me.'

Kwon Taek Joo wrinkled the bridge of his nose and growled. Zhenya quietly looked at the back of his red hand and shrugged, his face still calm and unchanged. On the contrary, there is only a slight smile that Kwon Taek Joo does not know what it means. Zhenya gently turned around to get out of the way. The series of indifferent leisurely actions as a conqueror has completely defeated the opponent.

Kwon Taek Joo's mood suddenly subsided, he pushed Zhenya with his shoulder and passed by. This time he also obediently avoided to the side. With eyes watching behind him, Kwon Taek Joo slammed the bathroom door.

He leaned his back against the tightly closed door and sighed with drooping black hair. From his special gestures to his smile, Zhenya's eyes appeared naked, making him uncomfortable. Kwon Taek Joo just wants to bury as quickly as possible the embarrassing moments he shared with him. Zhenya is clearly the culprit and also a witness to the tragic collapse of Kwon Taek Joo's original instinct. Have you ever had a dirty and humiliating aftertaste like this? No violence or torture can compare to a mood like his dog bites now. Kwon Taek Joo himself has never felt so helpless, he doesn't know what to do before the feeling of having to give up when he is subdued like this. Things get confusing and chaotic.

Kwon Taek Joo wants to wash away any traces left on his body. He turned on the shower and stood still for a long time under the hot water. His body and mind gradually calmed down.

I have to go back. If somehow Kwon Taek Joo can escape Zhenya's clutches and go to Korea, all the pieces that have dislocated since he mistook him for his colleague will be put back in place. His identity that has been distorted and destroyed by him will also be restored.

Kwon Taek Joo watched from inside the bathroom. There may be a key to escape somewhere. The first thing that caught his eye was the window on one side of the wall. However, its width is too narrow for a person to get through, it is even blocked by thick and strong barriers. There is sunlight shining through it from the outside, if the wall is not too hard or too thick, Kwon Taek Joo should try to find the weakness and smash it.

He walked out of the tap, dried his body and soles of his feet, and put on a thick bathrobe and tied it to his waist.

Kwon Taek Joo still doesn't know where this is, but if an area can build a villa of this size, there must be other houses. You will be able to arrange a place to hide and find a car or other means of transportation. So all Kwon Taek Joo has to do right now is get out of the villa.

He made up his mind and stood under the window. Kwon Taek Joo tried to sweep up the wall step, but the bathroom tiles were too slippery. Climbing the window with your bare hands is absurd.

He immediately rummaged through the closet for a solution but all he found was a few towels, sanitiser and cleaning tools. Kwon Taek Joo scratched his head and suddenly threw a towel on the floor. He tore the long scarf with a razor and tied both ends of a piece of towel cut to a medium width to form an irremovable knot.

Kwon Taek Joo connected a dusting clip to the rope. The end of the rope has become quite heavy. He looked up at the window to estimate the distance and height and then threw the clamp with all his strength like a dart. The clamp hitting the metal barriers sounded a prolonged sound that fell uselessly. Kwon Taek Joo had to try again before Zhenya realised, but the results were similar.

You can't give up. It can't be like that. If Kwon Taek Joo can't escape, what will his life be like and how will he die? A well-fed beast will be obedient, but it will quickly change its attitude and become ruthless as soon as hunger returns. Kwon Taek Joo couldn't sit still and wait for that moment.

He made up his mind again. Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the towel lying under the clamp and turned the clamp in the air to capture the centrifugal force. When the thrust reaches a certain level, Kwon Taek Joo throws it away like a spear towards the overhead window. The clamp flew quickly and slipped between the two iron rods. He took a deep breath and jerked the rope attached, the clamp lying on his side and clamped tightly between the bars. Okay.

Kwon Taek Joo uses a towel rope to quickly wipe off the slippery tiles on the wall and then thoroughly wipe the soles of his feet again. After a series of preparations, he was ready to grab the rope with both hands. Kwon Taek Joo slowly pressed the soles of his feet against the wall and put the weight of his body swinging on the rope. He repeatedly fell down in vain, but after a while of persistence, Kwon Taek Joo climbed up to mastery. He quickly crossed his legs and hung people under the window frame and quickly grabbed the bars.

Kwon Taek Joo's left leg slipped but he stretched out his right arm immediately. His chest slammed against the wall as he tried to cling to the iron bar. He endured the pain and supported his whole body with one arm, then he lifted the other arm to grab the iron rod. And then Kwon Taek Joo was sure that the iron bars on the window could not be cut with any tools he had. He tried to shake it as hard as he could but to no avail. The cold iron bars did not move. Kwon Taek Joo pulls it until it's exhausted and then gives up letting it go.

"Ah...!"

His ass hit the floor. His ass that had a shock-reducing effect now made him throbbing. After a while of moaning, Kwon Taek Joo stood up and frantically searched for another escape tool. He saw the drain pipe in the sink. Kwon Taek Joo recklessly pulled it out and smashed it against the wall with all his strength.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck...!"

Every time I hit the drain pipe, there is a swearing sound. Zhenya must have realised the riot in the bathroom but Kwon Taek Joo couldn't back down. He concentrated all his strength and smashed against the wall, the solid bricks began to crack. In desperation, Kwon Taek Joo grabbed the cracked brick with his bare hand and tore it apart.

But it didn't take long for Kwon Taek Joo to stop, as another wall appeared where the brick fell. It's not just a simple concrete wall, but it's like a rock that has been sharpened and polished, sometimes even the excavator is not necessarily drilled through. Kwon Taek Joo tried in vain again? He also couldn't try any more because he was completely exhausted.

Kwon Taek Joo tiredly dragged out when he suddenly stopped, because Zhenya had been standing in front of the door since. He stared at Kwon Taek Joo's wanted face and then looked inside the bathroom, then he laughed.

"Are you satisfied yet?"

Kwon Taek Joo glared at him without even speaking up. He didn't even have the energy to speak up. Zhenya watched him scoff with interest, and suddenly reached out his hand. Kwon Taek Joo was startled unconsciously. The hand that was being raised suddenly stopped in the air for a moment and then grabbed the robe. Then without saying a word, Zhenya dragged him somewhere. Kwon Taek Joo instinctively tries his best to keep his body but he is still dragged away.

He was worried about what he was going to torture him again, but the place where Zhenya brought Kwon Taek Joo was an unexpected dining room. He was looking into the strange room with only a table large enough for ten people to sit in when he was pushed to sit down on a chair. A bone-piercing pain emanating from below. Kwon Taek Joo was clenching his fist trying to endure when the food was brought in front of him. It's Blini, a Russian-style pancake that just looking at the image on the package is enough for Kwon Taek Joo to get sick.

He moved the plate aside and asked.

"What the hell is this place?"

"Even if I tell you , you wouldn't know it either."

"Where is this place?"

"Ajinoki Island."

Where is that? Kwon Taek Joo's face darkens. Zhenya sneered.

"See, I told you you won't know. This is an uninhabited island 60 kilometres from Murmansk."

Kwon Taek Joo doubts his ears. Murmansk is the northernmost region of Russia, 200 kilometres from the Arctic Circle. But an island 60 kilometres away? And is an uninhabited island?

"It's impossible. Is there really an uninhabited island? Who can live here?"

Kwon Taek Joo mumbled denial of reality, questions that sounded like monologues in self-Defence, there would be no madman who built a villa on a remote island where no one lived and no one travelled.

But Zhenya's assertion soon thereafter brutally extinguished even that fragile bit of hope.

"There's nothing here but this house."

This crazy guy.

Kwon Taek Joo looked blankly at Zhenya, it's hard to believe that no one or means existed to help him escape. Zhenya pulled the Blini plate earlier in front of Kwon Taek Joo.

"If I bring it, you eat it, unless you want to starve to death."

His words didn't seem like a joke. Kwon Taek Joo's stomach was empty and ravenous, if he didn't stuff anything in, he probably wouldn't be able to stand it. But Kwon Taek Joo very rarely eats Russian food and even though his crumpled self-esteem also shows resistance to the food that Zhenya seems to be generously offering.

Kwon Taek Joo glanced at the cooled blini plate, but soon his traitor's stomach screamed again. This is not the time to show pride. He reached for a piece of blini with a shy expression and put it in his mouth. His stomach excitedly prepared to receive food after a long time, but Kwon Taek Joo's jaw moved extremely slowly. Zhenya looked without taking his eyes off his face as if watching an interesting sight. Kwon Taek Joo turned his face away from his gaze and continued to dig through the innocent pieces of blini.

"I will probably be full... Why are you free to stay here like that?"

"I'm not very busy either."

"Why aren't you busy? Don't you have to clean up that mess?"

"Cleaning up the mess? Well, do you mean the design? It seems that you were very excited to let it go, but unfortunately it didn't hurt me that much. If it were so loose, I wouldn't have survived today in the first place."

".. What are you talking about?"

"What do you think you can do with the blueprint that you and your colleagues took away? Will you use it to develop a new weapon comparable to 'Anastasia'? No, you can't do that. Because I'm the only person in the world who can analyse that design."

Zhenya's cheerful expression was as if what he had just said was not nonsense. If it was merely because of the design that no one could touch him, Zhenya would have thought of a way not to lose it completely even if it was lost. He couldn't be careless for even a second while holding what everyone was aiming for.

There is actually no way to prove that the blueprint has been lost. The only people who know that the room exploded were the design, at most only Zhenya and his relatives. Could it be that one of them risked his privilege and life to reveal the truth? Salman is the target of surveillance of the Russian government, there is no reason for him to stand up to attract attention.

Breakdown. Kwon Taek Joo thought he had dealt Zhenya a fatal blow, but on the contrary it became a handshake that pushed his head into that bastard's mouth.

Zhenya looked at Kwon Taek Joo's squeaky and sulking face, his eyes like a cat watching a trapped mouse.

"I said it. From now on, you have to find a way to save your life."
