### Summary
The narrative pivots from one life-threatening crisis to another with breathtaking speed, a pace that readers found jarringly short. Having successfully secured and administered the antidote to a poisoned Lee Youngjin, Seo Seunghyun's singular focus on his partner's survival comes at a devastating cost. The chapter culminates in a dramatic cliffhanger as Seunghyun collapses from a previously ignored gunshot wound, an injury inflicted by the antagonist 'Sir' that he completely disregarded while on his mission. Reader commentary highlights a collective dawning realization of his condition, retroactively framing his desperate negotiation not as a power play but as a frantic act of self-sacrificial love. This moment solidifies Seunghyun’s transformation into the ultimate "green flag" in the eyes of the audience, even as they express profound fatigue with the relentless cycle of angst and near-death scenarios. The chapter's extreme brevity amplified the emotional whiplash, leaving readers in suspense as one character is saved only for the other to be plunged into mortal danger.
