He tried to follow the pickpocketer with all of his strength, but there was no way to catch a local of the place The pickpocket ht
“What the fuck……”
Jo Minjoon looked around without any strength It never happened before in Korea, but it wasn’t even an hour and he became a victim of pickpocket ‘When I arned to be careful of the pickpockets, would I be one of those victiht like that I was absent ard’
He was at a loss for words He didn’t have much cash but all of his cards were on the wallet He couldn’t even take a cab properly
Jo Minjoon went back to the place he got robbed without strength The beggar that was seated on the floor said with a smile
“Do you need this?”
While he was saying that, on the beggars fingers was the 5 dollar bill Jo Minjoon gave hih and answered It was quite a while since he interacted with a foreign man but it was pretty fluent
“It’s okay It’s pettier to give and take Get soar?”
It didn’t look like he was asking because he was uncomfortable He asked as if he was really curious Jo Minjoon scanned the blond man around his forties An old coat and a tattered scarf To look at it as a vintage fashi+on His clothes seemed too humble He was seated on the floor and also, the hat was placed as if he was begging for money so he seemed the more humbler
“Are you not?”
“I also have a house”
“……At least you aren’t hoive it back?”
“Didn’t you just say so That giving and then taking is the pettiest As I got it being treated as a beggar, I’ those 5 dollars as the cost of it”
Thes to say to hi he could do with 5 dollars
Jo Minjoon sighed and sat besides the man The man opened his mouth
“I’m Lucas Dean What’s your name?”
“Jo Minjoon First name Jo and name is Minjoon”
“Korea? japan?”
“It’s Korea”
Lucas glanced at the travelling bag Jo Minjoon had and said
“It looks like you caot it all ruined fro about it Except to be on the streets”

“Did it beco?”
Jo Minjoon took out his cellphone He prepared it beforehand, but fortunately the internet worked just fine After reporting the loss of his cards, he ondering wether to call the police or not Lucas told Jo Minjoon
“The police won’t even care about pickpockets It’s a ner”
“……It’s a scary place”
“Do you have so at Jo Minjoon, Lucas s to stay in a beggar’s house?”

“Lucas…… Is that really you?”
“……Jane I’m sorry”
The woly pale She alking wobbly, so Jo Minjoon thought that she was going to fall And in the end she didn’t Maybe if Lucas didn’t quickly hold her, the hard marble floor would have
“Jane!”
“Ah, I can touch you It really is you”
“……I’ at the conversation going between the two Jo Minjoon didn’t knohere to look and looked dejectedly Only then did Jane sees to say, but she couldn’t do so in front of a man she just met

“Oh, nice to meet you I’m Jane Dean”
“I’htly with Jane and looked at Lucas So Jo Minjoon did for hi at this house he didn’t seem like someone who needed those 5 dollars
He was curious but didn’t feel like the right time to ask him that Jane’s eyes were moist, and Lucas’s eyes were also red There see he didn’t know about Was Lucas a runaway? If he guessed at the age it was so that couldn’t possibly happen, but he couldn’t help but think so looking at his clothes
