Chapter 17

While they were been transported to the hospital on the way Lee Yoon-sun who had damaged his body pretty severely held Kang Sung-jo's hand & said to him in a low voice.

Lee Yoon-sun: Brother Kang, thank you for helping me & saving my idol today.

Kang Sung-jo: Yoon-sun, you don't have to the thankful to me because if you didn't save me from the space that day I would not be alive for this moment today. And you are like a small brother to me.

Lee Yoon-sun: Brother Kang, Did you got hurt while you were fighting those thugs?

Kang Sung-jo: No, I just got scratched here & there. Except that am okay.

Lee Yoon-sun: Good to hear that. I was tensed thinking about your condition because you were into a very furious fight with those thugs.

Kang Sung-jo: I said to you, I'm okay. Stay calm & relax. You will receive the necessary treatment in a short period of time.

Lee Yoon-sun: Okay! Have you informed uncle Yo-shin?

Kang Sung-jo: Until now, no. Because I don't have any phone with me right now.

Lee Yoon-sun: You can use mine for the time being & it's in my jacket's right pocket. You can take that phone & just inform uncle he will get to the hospital soon.

In the meantime, they reached the hospital & Lee Yoon-sun & Kim Young-so were taken to the emergency ward of the hospital for emergency treatment procedures. Before Lee Yoon-sun was taken in for treatment according to Lee Yoon-sun request Kang Sung-jo had taken his phone from his jacket's pocket. But as Kang Sung-jo was going through Lee Yoon-sun smartphone to make a call to his uncle Yo-shin suddenly the watch which scientist Yo-shin gave to Kang Sung-jo started to vibrate & it started to make a small beeping sound. This made Kang Sung-jo clueless & he tapped over the watch 2-3 times which resulted in stopping of the beep sound from the watch. But as the sound stopped Lee Yoon-sun's smartphone started to ring repeatedly. As Kang Sung-jo looked the screen it was not anyone else it was scientist Yo-shin himself. He was calling again & again to know when Kang Sung-jo & his nephew Lee Yoon-sun were returning home as they were been outside for so long & it was going to be 8 pm at night.

The phone started to ring again after a short duration, Kang Sung-jo gathered his courage & answered the call, as he answered the call suddenly a hologram projection of scientist Yo-shin created over the smartphone & Kang Sung-jo was able to see the angry scientist shouting through the call.

Scientist Yo-shin: You little brat! Where are you?

Kang Sung-jo: Hey doc, it's me. Sung-jo?

Scientist Yo-shin: Oh, Sung-jo you? Where is that Bratt? I think he had left you in those unknown streets & ran off behind something else.

Kang Sung-jo: No! Doc, it's not the matter.

Scientist Yo-shin: Then, where is that brat?

Kang Sung-jo: Doc, currently we are in a hospital's emergency section.

As scientist Yo-shin heard about the word hospital, he was hit by a big anxiety wave. He suddenly started to strike throughout his forward speech as Sung-jo told they are in hospital. The anxious scientist suddenly asked.

Scientist Yo-shin: Sang-jo! What happened? Is Yoon-sun, okay?

Kang Sung-jo: No, he had got into a fight with some thugs when we were having a tour of the city.

Scientist Yo-shin: Where…where are you? Which hospital? I'll come as soon as possible.

Kang Sung-jo: We are at Cyber City Hospital.

Scientist Yo-shin: Okay, I'll talk to you later when I reach there. Let me get dressed.

Kang Sung-jo: Okay, doc. I will be waiting for you here.

Scientist Yo-shin dressed up in a rush & get out of the house locking the door & try to get a taxi. And it was around 8 pm at night the taxi running over his house street had decreased at a drastic level. As he knew his nephew was hospitalised the tension was also at its peak because of each minute he wasted there felt like an eternity to him.

After a while of waiting, a taxi came by & he somehow handled his tension which was piled up within inside him in the time being & managed to get in. As he got inside the taxi the taxi driver who was sitting in the driver seat looked back & said.

Taxi Driver: Sir, because it's been late the fare which you have to pay will be more than the usual fare. Is that, okay?

Scientist Yo-shin: It's okay. You just start to drive. ( With a tensed tone).

Taxi Driver: You haven't said the destination. Can I know your drop location, please?

Scientist Yo-shin: It's Cyber City Hospital.

Taxi Driver: Okay, sir. Then here we go.
