Besides, adults who take care of children usually know these kinds of things better.

“Well, I deal with children often, but I’ve never raised one, so I’m not sure… but it should be something that involves a lot of movement, right?”

We quickly entered into a mini strategy meeting.

The child, Jung Jiho, remained silent in my arms, but I didn’t want to pressure him.

No please.

Then what do we do?

While I muttered internally, Hwang Juyeon cautiously proposed another idea.

That doesn’t sound bad.

“Uh… then something simple… playing with a ball? absorb Although it’s a bit cramped, so… what if we play with a balloon like a kind of hacky sack?”

The goose, with its black eyes, hummed a lullaby.

Do those even get tired?

If it rejects the idea again how the hell do we tire those “children” out?

I glanced sideways.

“……hands up, hands down…… stretch……”

“Yes… you said it… that you taught piano… as your main… job…”

“Could you… give me a moment…?”

“Of course.”

Both Choi Jaeha and Hwang Juyeon…

Content of How to Die in a Company That Turned Into a Labyrinth - Chapter 15: What is this? Give me back my memories published by TrungTu Reads.

At first I didn’t give it importance.

There is strange information in my head that I don’t remember learning.

Thoughts like that Choi Jaeha was the youngest in his family, or that he had thrown a fire extinguisher out the hallway window.

Something temporary that I couldn’t control or fix.

I thought they were aftereffects of something like torture.

They weren’t important things.

But if the rest of my memories are fine, and there is only confusion with information about people I met inside the labyrinth then it doesn’t seem to be just post-traumatic stress.

As for when it started everything began after I was forced to participate in that reading club with Kim Gilyeong.

No not even I am sure that in that reading club it was only her and me.

It wasn’t the first time something like this had happened to me.

Even if only for a moment.

But if someone had to do it, it had to be me.

“Hold firmly onto the handrail when going down.”
