Chapter 54

10 years passed by with the children going on missions to increase Han Ji Suk's influence.

Han Ji Suk worked and trained them like dogs in order to gain full control over them. The warehouse the numbered children lived in only had a makeshift sleeping area, with cots and folding beds arranged in a shared space. It had little water resources, no room for personal lockers or small areas to themselves and their blankets and sleeping bags were always thrown across the cots, giving the area a rough, utilitarian feel.

Acknowledging their fate after previous failed attempts at running away the children channeled their frustration into their craft and accepted their orders dutifully.
