Ex Rank Supporting Role’s Replay in a Prestigious School

After the long first match ended, the Korean national team returned to Jiik Hall to the warm welcome of their fellow students, but they immediately began searching for Gwak Gyeong-gu and Jo Yi-shin.

Gwak Gyeong-gu had finished his check-up and returned, but Jo Yi-shin was nowhere to be found.

“Gyeong-gu, is Yi-shin still getting checked?”
“Gyeong-gu-hyung, you don’t mean Yi-shin is alone in the hospital, right?”
“If he’s at the hospital, Gyeong-gu would have stayed with him. You didn’t leave your junior behind, did you?”

Led by Yeom Jun-yeol, everyone added their comments.

Though Gwak Gyeong-gu wasn’t the type to shrink from being spoken to by many at once, he couldn’t provide a proper answer. His lack of response only fueled suspicions that he had indeed left his junior behind.

Before anyone could directly voice their doubts, Kim Shin-rok stepped in to manage the situation.@@novelbin@@

“I received a call from the person looking after Yi-shin. He finished his check-up and is resting now.”

“Huh? Who was it?”
“Is it a relative?”
“…I’ve heard Yi-shin doesn’t have any relatives.”

At Maeng Hyo-don’s comment, everyone’s expression darkened.

When Jo Yi-shin was given the title of the ‘Nameless Supernova,’ his personal details had been partially disclosed to the public by reporters. Though the reporters failed to interview Jo Yi-shin directly, they succeeded in conducting a basic background check through his school.

It quickly became known that Jo Yi-shin had lost his entire family in his middle school years.

An article detailing Jo Yi-shin’s tragedy vanished without a trace one day, but the story continued to circulate among people.

“Mr. Kim Shin-rok, who took Yi-shin?”

As Kim Shin-rok hesitated, Ju Su-hyeok bluntly asked.

Kim Shin-rok smiled warmly, but he was clearly avoiding giving a direct answer.
