Chapter 47 - Outsmarted

(Day 6 continued.)

 

(later on Juwon meets with Lisa, Hanna and Justin.)

JUWON

Ah, I'm done showering. Achoo!

JUSTIN

You okay?

JUWON

Yeah, I'm okay. So, what is this secret meeting?

HANNA

When I was bathing. Someone stole the key card.

JUWON

What?!

HANNA

Yeah, I was careless. I didn't think someone could steal it.

LISA

And not to mention, it still has your name. we haven't changed the leadership from you to Hanna.

JUWON

Damn it. What do we do now?

JUSTIN

Do we have a suspect?

JUWON

I bet it's that Class C student. Juliet.

(He starts to sweat.)

LISA

It's Julie. Juwon are you alright?

JUWON

Yeah, I'm fine.

(Hanna checks her forehead.)

HANNA

You don't look fine. Your head is burning. You have a fever.

JUSTIN

Did you bathe with warm water?

JUWON

Yes… Achooo!

LISA

I don't think he did.

HANNA

You bathed in cold water.

JUWON

HANNA

Of course you did. You were supposed to boil the water.

JUWON

I did boil it…

JUSTIN

I guess he did boil the water and then went to goof around and forgot about the warm water in the bucket.

HANNA

Sigh! What do we do now? Oppa is now ill and the key card is stolen…

JUSTIN

For now, let us not tell anyone in our class. If we do, it will cause a panic. And they will most likely suspect Julie.

LISA

Yeah.

JUWON

I will confront Julie and ask her about it.

HANNA

Oppa, you can't. I'll do it.

JUWON

No, let me do it. I'll make her confess that she was the one who stole it. After all, it's my name written on the key card. And I have been suspecting her.

HANNA

Now, that I'm thinking about it. She has been going out of our camp all the time. I wonder where she is heading out.

LISA

Could it be that she's secretly meeting up with a Class C student?

JUSTIN

I thought Class C students dropped out. All of them.

HANNA

I don't think all of them dropped out of this exam. There are still some. Alicia has some Class C students in her camping site.

JUSTIN

So, there must be a guy in Class C who has been planting spies in Class B's camp and our camp. What is his goal?

HANNA

To find out who the leader is.

JUWON

Cough! Cough! Cough!

(Juwon drops to his knees.)

LISA

Juwon!

HANNA

…!

JUSTIN

Are you okay?!

JUWON

Yeah, I'm alright.

LISA

Are you going to confront Julie when you are like this? I won't let you to that.

HANNA

I agree with Lisa.

JUWON

Then do you have a plan Hanna?

HANNA

Yes, I do happen to have one.

JUSTIN

What is this plan?

(Later on Julie is on her way to Class D's camp. Juwon confronts her.)

JULIE

Hmm. What are you doing here?

JUWON

Where have you been?

JULIE

It is none of your business. Why are you asking me that?

JUWON

...

JULIE

If you have nothing to say, then get out of my way.

JUWON

Sure. I'll let you go. But what are you going to do anyway? You already figure out who the leader of Class D is.

JULIE

…!

JUWON

The key card is stolen. Hanna was bathing and someone stole the key card.

JULIE

Why are you telling me this? Do you suspect me for stealing it because I'm not from your Class? Class D.

JUWON

Not me who suspects me. My entire class suspects you. If you go there, you will be forced to fess up. And I won't be able to defend you.

JULIE

Hahahahahaha! You think you can actually defend me. Why would you even do that?

JUWON

Because, you are a pretty girl.

JULIE

Are you trying to flirt with me? And win me over? you have to try harder than that. And you are not my type.

JUWON

Eh?! Even though, I'm good looking.

JULIE

Good looks are not the only thing a girl sees in a man. I like strong men. Whether they are good looking or not.

JUWON

[So, that is the type of guy that she likes.] Okay, I get you. You like people who are strong. So, I'm going to prove it.

JULIE

How?

JUWON

By fighting you.

(He gets into a fighting stance.)

JULIE

Hahahahaha! You are going to fight me? Do you actually like me?

JUWON

Yes, I like you.

(Her eyes widen.)

JULIE

What?! What are ya crazy?!

JUWON

I am crazy. That is why I'm confessing that I like you. That is why I want to prove to you that I am strong. Strong enough to protect and defend you from my Class who are now an angry mob.

JULIE

You really are an idiot.

(She lifts Juwon up and falls him to the ground.)

JUWON

Huh?! Was that Judo?

JULIE

Pathetic. To think that you are weak. And yet you are saying that you like me. And yes, I did stole the key card. Here it is. Now, that I have confirmed that you are the leader of Class D and you weren't bluffing earlier when you announced yourself to be the leader of class D. It also confirms that Class D are a bunch of idiots who chose you as an idiot.

(She throws the key card at Juwon and is about to leave. When Juwon laughs.)

JUWON

Hahahahahaha!

JULIE

What is so funny?

JUWON

To think that, you took such drastic measures when you were desperate when your walkie talkie was destroyed.

JULIE

…! How do you…?! Don't tell me…

(Hanna pins her down.)

JULIE

Ugh! What the hell?!

HANNA

Julie. Julie. Julie. My dear friend Julie. Juwon was not the one who destroyed your walkie talkie. I did it. And you didn't steal the key card because you were desperate and show it to your leader Scott. I baited you to steal it when I was bathing. To think that you would fall into my trap.

JULIE

…!
