After the attempt Gi-hun and his team had at killing the soldiers to stop the games failed, they had to play more rounds of the agonizing and murderous games. The few bits of people left alive after the hide and seek game were like ants in a maze to the VIPs and front man. It seemed as if all hope was gone. But soon enough, the detective found the island the games were on, and successfully infiltrated them somehow. Nobody knew how they didnt notice the detective slip in, but they were relieved nonetheless.

Myung-gi happened to be one of the people freed from the games, there had been a long boat ride until they got to the docks. It was dark at night, the docks were lit up by nice orange lights. This was the first time Myung-gi had been out of that island in days, so it felt like a whole miracle. Many boats had been shipped out to bring people back sense they could only hold so many. Him, Jun-hee, the baby, and Gi-hun were on one ship together, the rest of people Myung-gi didnt care to know about. Jun-hee didnt want to even speak to him, let alone look at him. He was the father of that baby, and even in the freedom they had now, she still didnt want him back in her life. He would casually glare at Gi-hun from time to time as well, why did he get more trust with his own baby than himself?

As the boat unloaded the people, he had to figure out what he was going to do with the money he now had. Once he got off, he was going to start walking immediately to a bank to store some of the money and leave just enough for a good house until he spotted someone. Someone he used to hate, and still kind of did. Namgyu. That man had been a nuisance since they got to the games in the first place, him and his druggie friend Thanos, who got Namgyu drugged up half the games. Myung-gi was going to walk off before he noticed the state Namgyu was in. He just realized, did he even have anybody to go to after the games? He was shaking, was he having withdrawals? Despite his better judgement, he walked over to Namgyu with his hands in the pockets of the green blood stained tracksuit he couldnt wait to get out of. Despite his hatred for him, they did make a great team in hide & seek..

"What's up with you?"

He asked simply, looking down at Namgyu who was sitting on the curb by the docks.
