Regression Manual for Idols Who Lost Their Original Intent Chapter 360

At first I was flustered when I received the text, but thinking calmly about it, there was absolutely no reason for Cha Yeonho to suddenly suspect me of being a regressor.

Maybe if it were Kim Dobin, who showed irrelevant responses instead of relevant answers.

In that case, I just need to bring Kim Dobin to the meeting place, leisurely watch Cha Yeonho’s futile digging, and give Dobin some simple education so he can extract useful information.

That guy does help out like this from time to time.

While Ryu Jaehee takes care of solving most problems that require intelligence, Kim Dobin would solve things I couldn’t honestly confess to Ryu Jaehee through amazing coincidences and luck.

“Why are you looking at me with that expression…?”

Kim Dobin, who noticed my gaze, asked with a displeased look.

“How was I looking at you?”

“Like a dog owner looking at a well-trained dog.”

“If you put yourself down like that… Wait, is calling someone a dog putting them down…? There are more than a few times when dogs are better than people, so as a dog lover, is it okay for me to have such narrow-minded thinking?”

“You don’t need to think so seriously about stuff like that.”

Gyeon Hajun decisively cut off my endlessly extending serious contemplation.

[When and where should we meet?]

When I sent a simple reply to Cha Yeonho, an answer with the time and place arrived immediately.

At the thought of watching Cha Yeonho’s blundering again, I naturally started humming. What kind of entertainment would he provide this time?

Moreover, the member he mistook wasn’t Gyeon Hajun or Ryu Jaehee, but Kim Dobin. It was a tragedy for Cha Yeonho who knew nothing. Though it would be a comedy for me watching it.

Daydream, how have you been? Hawaii day 4, today’s best shots.

The first photo above is photo by our youngest, and the other two are photo by me. I’m so proud that our youngest’s photography skills seem to be improving by leaps and bounds every day ㅋㅋ

Check the vlog video that will be uploaded later to see who Yehyeon hyung is chasing

Full of anticipation, I completed today’s weekly quest by posting on the fan cafe again. Thanks to doing something every day under the pretense of taking photos and videos, it became much easier to upload From posts.

-He didn’t tan at all, look how fair his skin is

-Why does Yehyeon look so pissed off? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Look at how lively this photo is ㅋㅋㅋ

-Jaehee did take good photos but still can’t match your selfies, Eden ㅋㅋ

-I miss you guys already ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

Comments poured in as soon as the post was uploaded.

When we return to Korea, there will be plenty to see from the DTB 4 concert to the year-end award ceremony stages.

As the promised time approached, I grabbed Kim Dobin and headed for the hotel room door.

“We’re going out for a walk.”

“Hey, you guys are going out to buy and eat something again! That combination is exactly for that!”

There was a crisis where Seo Yehyeon tried to follow us to monitor us, but we successfully overcame it and came out of the hotel room. As soon as we got outside, I lowered my voice and earnestly instructed Kim Dobin.

“If Senior Cha Yeonho asks why you followed me, tell him you said you wanted to come along.”

“Huh? But hyung, you told me to follow you.”

“Doby, does your honesty stat decrease if you lie or something?”

“Oh, hyung reads web novels too? Or webtoons? What do you read?”

It’s not webtoons or web novels, damn it—this otaku-like phenomenon is my reality.

Anyway, after earnestly pleading with him to do exactly that, I told Kim Dobin what he should say if he ended up alone with Cha Yeonho.

“Just say that there has to be something coming before something can go. Got it? And if he contacts you personally after that, don’t answer calls—tell him to text instead, then report to me immediately and hand over your phone.”

“What is this? Am I really a spy?”

Kim Dobin’s eyes sparkled. I was so happy that I didn’t have to add elaborate fake stories. If it had been Ryu Jaehee, Gyeon Hajun, or Seo Yehyeon, they would never have let it slide like this and would have demanded an explanation somehow.

Then I would have had to come up with some hastily made-up ridiculous reason and only gotten suspicious looks and interrogation in return.

I felt proud of Kim Dobin for no particular reason and lightly patted his head.

We finally arrived at the meeting place with Cha Yeonho. Cha Yeonho, who was already standing at the agreed location, looked strangely absent-minded for some reason.

Was the fight with KJ that shocking? Even when I fought with Gyeon Hajun, it wasn’t to that extent.

I felt a bit annoyed that my friendship with Gyeon Hajun seemed to pale in comparison to theirs.

Cha Yeonho, who had been walking toward me with large strides while still in that absent state, hesitated when he spotted Kim Dobin next to me. A sharp gleam slowly began to return to Cha Yeonho’s vacant eyes.

“I’m pretty sure I told only Yoon Eden to come?”

At his barbed words, I poked Kim Dobin’s back where Cha Yeonho couldn’t see. Like a toy that makes noise when pressed, Kim Dobin recited exactly what I had earnestly told him to say.

“I said I wanted to come along.”

At those words, Cha Yeonho’s brow furrowed. After staring blankly at Kim Dobin for a moment, he suddenly covered his mouth and stumbled backward.

I was momentarily flustered by his appearance, as if he had seen a ghost, but when Cha Yeonho turned his back and walked away from us without even saying he was leaving first, my bewilderment turned to absurdity.

“What the hell, he’s the one who told us to come. It’s not like he’s training a dog or something.”

[Inappropriate behavior detected.]

[Initial Heart Points -1]

[Let’s say such things after the other person has left.]

So it’s fine to say it after they’ve left? Since it didn’t show [No], it seemed to be correct.

Hmm, is the fact that Kim Dobin is a regressor that shocking from Cha Yeonho’s perspective? Did Kim Dobin ever leave some deep impression on Cha Yeonho?

I quietly hushed Kim Dobin, who was whining next to me about why I brought him along, and asked softly.

“Have you ever met Senior Cha Yeonho separately?”

Kim Dobin nodded and immediately answered.

“Yes, at the radio station. You remember too, right hyung? That day we played that maddening love game.”

“Ah, that game where I thought you were making the wrong choice? What happened then? You said Senior Cha Yeonho asked you something.”

“That time? Hmm… You know how Senior Cha Yeonho asked who had the loudest voice in our group? I interpreted that as who had the highest volume, so aside from briefly misunderstanding at first… nothing really?”

Hearing Kim Dobin’s answer, I immediately understood Cha Yeonho’s attitude.

Right, having seen such a clueless side without any filter, it would be shocking from Cha Yeonho’s perspective.

* * *

Altair members Ju Seojin and Lee Sumin, who used to be roommates, were sighing deeply together. Since both KJ and Cha Yeonho had left their positions, the two who had been struck by this unexpected bolt from the blue ended up reuniting.

Neither KJ nor Cha Yeonho were the type to cause any deviation that would damage the team’s image, no matter the situation, so their absence wasn’t particularly worrying.

The problem was the reason why those two had fought. Since they had never been seen raising their voices at each other before, this couldn’t be taken lightly.

Having learned from experience that asking Cha Yeonho wouldn’t yield any answers, the Altair members skipped him and asked KJ about the reason for their fight, but KJ only responded unusually sharply, asking why they were curious about that.

“What the hell is going on, really.”

Ju Seojin roughly ran his hands through his hair.

“Did Jeongjun hyung tell you why they fought?”

“No, if I knew that, I wouldn’t be this frustrated. Yeonho hyung would never tell us. I asked Seogyun hyung to try probing Yeonho hyung, but he refused.”

“Seogyun hyung finds Yeonho hyung difficult too.”

Cha Yeonho, who was both a group member and a pillar supporting the group alongside their leader KJ, was… somewhat difficult to approach.

His face that always remained unreadable except for the very rare times he got angry, the way he led the group toward success as if he had seen an answer sheet, and how for certain periods he spent more time with his eyes closed than open all contributed to this.

The fact that most of his attention was focused on KJ was also one of the reasons why Cha Yeonho was difficult to approach.

Sometimes the other members would joke that for Cha Yeonho, Altair might only mean KJ.

“I came up in the elevator with Rev. Do you think they overheard our phone conversation?”

“Even if they didn’t hear what I was saying, they definitely heard everything you said. Don’t they have ears?”

“They won’t use that to spread rumors about discord in our group, right…?”

“Well, which agency were they from again…”

“Since you can’t remember, I guess we don’t need to worry. Our agency will handle it.”

Ju Seojin and Lee Sumin deliberately changed the subject and chatted playfully. When the hotel room door suddenly burst wide open, both of them were startled and fell silent.

Cha Yeonho rushed into the room with a completely confused expression.

“Hyung, what happened?”

Without his usual unreadable mysterious smile or poker face, Cha Yeonho was displaying raw emotions.

“No, that can’t be possible…”

Cha Yeonho muttered as if in a daze.

Faced with this unprecedented situation and seeing Cha Yeonho’s expression for the first time, the two gradually became frightened and quietly slipped away.

“How could that…! How could something like that…!”

Left alone in the room, Cha Yeonho vented his frustration by punching the pillow repeatedly. He should think it was actually better this way, but he just couldn’t bring himself to feel that.

* * *

Even after a full day had passed since Cha Yeonho ran out like that, there was no separate contact from him.

I had no choice but to return without knowing why he had called me instead of Kim Dobin, who had witnessed their fight firsthand, or what he had wanted.

“He only called for you? Really? He didn’t ask you to bring me along?”

“That’s what I said.”

While I was halfheartedly answering Kim Dobin’s persistent questions as he lay on the sunbed.

A short vibration sounded. It was the notification for an incoming text message.

[Cha Yeonho- It’s you]

The text from Cha Yeonho was excessively short. Just as I frowned at the message whose sender’s intention was completely unreadable, another text arrived.

This one I absolutely couldn’t ignore.

[Cha Yeonho – Rev Regressor]
