He had to laugh when Lawyer Jongdae countered that one of Kris' good deeds was that he always told his grandmother that she looked lovely, no matter how ugly the dresses she wore really were. He probably had no chance at this rate.
Prosecutor Jongdae definitely had the better examples. He told the jury how Kris had bullied children in his class and showed pictures of their bruises. He could even tell them the total amount of money Kris earned through blackmail. Kris actually was impressed at himself.
When Lawyer Jongdae told them that Kris supposedly was an animal lover, Prosecutor Jongdae just scoffed and showed a video of drunk Kris who beat up a homeless guy.
Lawyer Jongdae retorted that Kris often allowed his friends to sleep at his place without charging them any money. Prosecutor Jongdae showed a picture of Kris' apartment and explained which items he 'borrowed' from his friends. It included pretty much everything inside and even Judge Jongdae who looked like he was dozing off started to chuckle.
Lawyer Jongdae pouted and spent almost a minute flipping through his files, just to explain that Kris once donated some of his clothes to a charity organisation. Prosecutor Jongdae snorted and shook his head, obviously aware that Kris wanted to throw them out and that someone else donated the clothes in his name.
Kris was already preparing for the next boring example and literally just waited to be prosecuted, when the guy with the demon mask whispered something to Prosecutor Jongdae. The latter then nodded and put on a serious face.
"Please allow me to call in a witness for my last example," he said gravely and another Jongdae walked in to sit at a fouth table. Kris really grew tired of all the differen Jongdae versions.
"What's your name?" Prosecutor Jongdae asked as he stood in front of the witness.
"Uh," Witness Jongdae said and gave Kris a short insecure glance. "Kim Jongdae," he said quietly.
It was the real one. And Kris jumped up. "No," he shouted. "Stop this shit right this second. We all know I'm guilty anyway, right? There's no need to drag him into this."
"Oh, please, keep quiet," Judge Jongdae said authoritatively and Lawyer Jongdae dragged Kris back on his chair. "Just when it gets interesting," Judge Jongdae said exasperatedly and waved Prosecutor Jongdae to continue.
"What's the relationship between you and the defendant?" Prosecutor asked as he paced around the fourth table.
Jongdae seemed extremely small as he sat at the wooden table. It was if he was slowly shrinking, although he maybe only seemed that way because all the fake Jongdaes were so full of confidence. "We went out," Jongdae said as his gaze followed the prosecutor. He seemed to avoid looking at Kris.
"What did the defendant do to you?"

It was as if the room in front of him started shifting. Lawyer Jongdae gave him a worried look, Prosecutor Jongdae was annoyed, Judge Jongdae rubbed his eyes. The jury suddenly disappeared and the guy with the demon mask was right in front of him. He grabbed Kris' collar and dragged him over the table.
And suddenly there was music around them. They all stood in a crowded bar now. The people around them didn't even seem to notice them as they chatted and drank and clapped.
Kris saw himself standing at a table, intently staring at the small stage. He knew what the younger him was looking at.
It was the day they met. Jongdae had sung and he had listened. Afterwards he had chatted him up and asked him out. Jongdae had looked suspicious and called him lame but had agreed anyway.
Kris really needed to get out and away from that idiotic him of the past. If he had just left him alone then, nothing bad would have happened.
All the Jongdaes followed him as he left the bar and walked right into the park where Jongdae had brought him that one day in autumn. He had agreed to take care of his cousin's dog for a week and had forced Kris to tag along as he took the dog for a walk.
Kris started to run but no matter how far he got, he just met more scenes of his memories. He saw himself introducing Jongdae to his grandmother after warning him that she sometimes wore mismatching clothes because she was half blind. He saw himself in mock annoyance at Jongdae's constant humming. He saw their first kiss and the first time he stayed over. He saw Jongdae who told him that it was a waste to throw out perfectly fine clothes just because he didn't like them anymore.
And just when he had to stop because his lungs hurt from the constant running he saw Jongdae who tumbled to the ground in that dreaded back alley.
It was all because Kris was a bad person and Jongdae wasn't. It was because Kris picked that fight with the bulky drunk guy.
They were in a club and Jongdae hated it. He got annoyed and was about to walk out when he ran into that guy. Jongdae was about to apologize but Kris got angry and punched the guy. They were dragged outside and someone suddenly had a knife. Jongdae tried to get between them and then he just
He just
Fell.
Kris couldn't move. He watched himself fall on his knees. He watched Jongdae who just lay there. He saw the blood on his hands.
"So," Judge Jongdae said quietly. "What does the defense say?"
Lawyer Jongdae cleared his throat. "Well, I would like to ask the witness to give a statement."
They all looked at the real Jongdae who seemed lost.
"Do you have anything to say to defend Wu Yifan?" Judge Jongdae asked helpfully.
"I..." Jongdae said. "I don't know."
The guy with the demon mask started laughing and all the other Jongdaes too suddenly put demon masks on their faces.
Jongdae looked at himself and at Kris in the alley and then at Defendant Kris. He seemed sorry.
The guy with the demon mask took of his mask and Kris stared at his own face. Because the guy with the demon mask had been him all along.
"But," Jongdae shrugged. "I was happy."
And Kris woke up.

That was unexpected. (But really good!)
I liked all of the Jongdaes. Especially Judge Jongdae, because it's so fun to say.
