KILLER
ⓒ2020 Dalbodre1
Yoongi, who had been in Korea for a long time, didn't even have time to reminisce. He left the airport and climbed into the backseat of a car that had been waiting for him. Taehyung, sitting at the wheel, greeted Yoongi warmly through the rearview mirror.
"Long time no see, six years?"
"Probably so."
"Why have you become less talkative since we last saw each other?"
"I'm tired, but why did the boss call me?"
"Huh? Didn't you hear about that?"
At those words, Yoon-gi raised one eyebrow and asked back.
"That thing? All I heard was that they told me to come to Korea."
"Do you know this woman?"
"I've heard that your skills are really outstanding."
"It's so great. Even better than the boss."
"Is that so? That's amazing. But why is this?"
"Well... Ah! Did you know Park Jimin before?"
"If it's Park Jimin... isn't he the boss of the JM organization? They say our organization and their organization are enemies."
Taehyung nodded repeatedly in agreement with those words.
"Right, right."
"But why did we become enemies?"
"I don't know about that! No, that's not the point."
"Then what."
"There are those two, well, they're dating! Dating is forbidden by our organization's rules. And of all people, they're dating Park Jimin, who's not even from another organization, but an enemy. When our boss heard about this, he went crazy and went to find Park Jimin and half-killed him, but then the female lead showed up. And then she took the prince who was in trouble like a princess on a white horse, right?"
"So the conclusion is that you called me to catch these guys because you missed Park Jimin and Yeoju?"
"that's right!"
At Taehyung's bright appearance, Yoongi rubbed his forehead with his hand and spoke slowly in a tone full of sincerity.
"Taehyung, there's something I always say when I see you. Please explain it briefly and simply."
"What if you don't understand!"
"Am I you?"
"What's wrong with me!!!"
"You're stupid."
"Huh? What? Huh? The light's green? Okay, let's go~"
Taehyung hurriedly turned around and drove on. Yoongi, seeing this, chuckled in disbelief and closed his eyes. Then, he slowly mulled over what Taehyung had said earlier. "A relationship with your boss, your enemy. It was understandable that he'd be so upset." Yoongi leaned his head gently against the window. Then, a question suddenly occurred to him.
What do Lee Yeo-ju and Park Jimin look like?
"Ms. Lee Yeo-ju!!! Are you going to keep doing this!?"
As soon as the boss finished his harsh words, papers began to scatter over Yeoju's head and slowly fell to the floor. Yeoju squeezed her eyes shut, then lowered her head, fidgeting with her fingers. Then she spoke softly.
"sorry···."
"I told you last time, it's going to be difficult if we keep doing things this way."
The female protagonist cursed under her breath. There was nothing wrong with the information in the documents. If there was a problem, it was her boss in front of her. There was a reason why he acted that way.
Last time I stayed late with my boss, he gave me a strange vibe. So I tried to finish up quickly and leave, but the power went out right then and there. Unable to do anything, I had no choice but to sit there. Then, my boss came up behind me, grabbed my shoulder, and started making some obscene remarks.
Embarrassed and scared, but the urge to run away was stronger than anything else. So, I picked up my keyboard and hit my boss on the head before running away. The next day, my boss threatened me. He told me to behave myself in society if I didn't want to get fired. I wanted to report it to the police, but I had only circumstantial evidence, so I couldn't.
On the other hand, that boss had evidence. He'd hit me so hard that the keyboard was slightly damaged, and his head was also injured. Because of this, I was in a position where I had no choice but to lay down my hands.
The female protagonist raised her head and glanced at her boss's face. He was about the same age as her father. His dull eyes were wrinkled, and his nose was neither high nor low. His lips were thin and purple. There was no hair on his forehead or crown. Perhaps because of this, the light reflected and sparkled.
The heroine's eyes also sparkled. She was going to throw her resignation letter at that forehead. Absolutely.
"By the way, Miss Yeoju, I heard you're going on a trip abroad tonight."
"Oh yeah, so I have to get off work soon."
"Hmm, where are you going?"
"Do whatever you want." The words I wanted to say to my boss were swirling around in my mouth, and I wanted to blurt them out, but I held them back. I didn't want to ruin my life by saying everything I wanted to say. Yeo-ju forced a smile and spoke slowly.
"I... am going to New York."
"Wow~ That would be nice~ New York would be nice~ Yeoju would be nice~"
"Haha. Oh yeah, that's good. Then I'll take my leave."
"Hey, organize that again~"
"······ When I looked there, I couldn't find any problems. What exactly is the problem?"
"It's your job, so you should find out~ Why are you asking me?"
"Oh, yes..."
The heroine greeted her boss, turned around, and vowed that one day she would definitely throw her resignation letter at his forehead.
Yoongi left Taehyung behind to park, and went to the NJ Organization lobby first. It had been a while since he'd been to NJ Organization, so he glanced around. Just then, someone quickly approached Yoongi and put their arm around his shoulder. Yoongi turned to see, sure enough, it was hacker Jung Hoseok. Hoseok touched Yoongi's cheek with his hand, a tearful expression on his face.
"Why did our Sugar lose so much weight?"
"Why are you like this, go away."
"It's good, but it's annoying."
"What are you saying?"
Hoseok let go of his arm around Yoongi's shoulder and looked around to find Taehyung, who had been missing for a while.
"By the way, what about that kid V?"
"parking."
"Really? Do you want to wait for V and then go, or do you want to go first?"
"I want to go first."
"okay!"
"Hope, you wait here for V."
"Ah!!! I want to follow you too!!!"
"Shut up, you come with V. I knew that, so I'll go first."
"You son of a bitch!!!"
Yoon-ki got on the elevator without a second thought. He pressed the 51st floor button and waited. Soon, the elevator doors opened with a "tiring" sound. Yoon-ki quickly walked to the chairman's office. After fixing his crooked tie, he knocked on the door. Then, Nam-joo's voice was heard.
"Come in."
Yoon-gi opened the door to the chairman's office and entered. His boss, Nam-ju, had a bandage wrapped around his right thigh, as if he'd been injured. Yoon-gi closed the door and bowed to Nam-ju in greeting.
"Long time no see, boss."
"Enough with the greetings, come sit here."
Yoongi raised his head and sat down on the sofa opposite Namju. Namju leaned back against the backrest and spoke to Yoongi.
"Would you like some coffee?"
"Okay, so what's your mission for me? Just capture those two?"
Hearing the words "those two," Nam-joo was momentarily surprised. He'd never heard of "those two," so he knew, but he didn't understand. But the moment he saw Suga, he understood. It must have been Hope or V, who are known for their slurred speech. Nam-joo chuckled and spoke neither slowly nor quickly.
"You already heard, then there's no need to explain. Good. I'll get to the point. You can kill Park Jimin, but you have to catch Lee Yeo-ju by any means necessary. I wanted to go too, but as you can see, I'm injured so I can't go. Even if I go, I'll just be a burden. I'll send V and Hope, so you can go together."
"··· I will go alone."
"I know, they're noisy. But they're the ones with the best skills. You can't handle them alone, Yeoju."
"But even if that's the case for V, why is it for Hope..."
"If V follows you, it's obvious that Hope will do whatever it takes to get there. So just tell him to go. Besides, he's the best hacker. It'll definitely be good if we stay together."
Yoongi felt a sudden sense of doubt. Lee Yeo-ju and Park Jimin were wrong, but it felt strange to have gone this far. Yoongi tilted his head for a moment, then shook it. No. Maybe he was just tired and sensitive from coming without resting. Yoongi nodded and spoke softly.
"All right."
"I think I'll have to take another Sugar flight. Is that okay?"
"it's okay."
"I thought you'd say it's okay, so I booked a flight to New York in advance. Oh, but the time zone is a bit different from Yeoju's. Since you three are moving around together, I thought you might notice, so I booked an early morning flight."
"thank you."
"What are you thankful for? I'm more thankful. Sugar, please take care of yourself. Yeoju Lee is really good at fighting. And I'll follow you as soon as I get better."
At those words, Yoongi thought about the female protagonist, but it was no use. He would have remembered only if he'd seen her, but since he hadn't, he couldn't. Yoongi considered asking Namjoo about the female protagonist, but since Taehyung and Hoseok were with him, he didn't bother. Yoongi freely imagined the female protagonist in his head and answered Namjoo's words.
"Understood, boss."
"Okay, you can go."
Yun-gi stood up from his seat, bowed his head, and spoke.
"I will complete the mission."
Inside Incheon Airport. Amidst the bustling, bustling atmosphere, a woman and a man sat on a chair. The woman turned her head to look out the window. The sun was slowly setting. After watching the setting sun, she turned her head to look at the man. He was sleeping, leaning against her shoulder. As she stroked his bangs, he slowly opened his eyes and spoke.
"I'm sorry, lady."
"What's wrong with being sorry?"
"Just, everything."
"Don't be sorry, I'm not here to make you feel sorry."
"Still, I'm sorry. If you hadn't met me, you wouldn't have ended up in this dangerous situation. In fact, you would have been happier······."
Without even listening to the rest of the story, Yeoju grabbed Jimin's cheeks and forced him to look at her. Jimin's eyes widened in surprise at Yeoju's actions. Yeoju smiled faintly at Jimin and said.
"I'm happier now, so don't feel guilty."
"······."
"And I regret working under him with all my loyalty, without knowing anything."
"My lady..."
"To be honest, I'm angry. I want to kill that guy who did such a terrible thing to you in the past. But since you said no, I'm just letting it slide. If he threatens you again, I'll kill him. Remember that."
"··· okay."
Jimin kissed Yeoju's forehead. Yeoju looked at Jimin with eyes that were so adoring she could die for him. Jimin's expression, now much more relaxed than before, put her mind at ease. Yeoju placed her hand on Jimin's waist, and Jimin flinched sharply. Yeoju immediately pulled her hand away, thinking, "Oh no."
"are you okay?"
"Yeah, it's okay. Sorry, I surprised you."
"Why are you sorry? Are you really okay? I said I was getting treatment, but I think I did something wrong... What should I do?"
"are you okay."
"······."
"It's okay, really."
"That's good, but still... Huh? Wait a minute."
"huh?"
Yeoju suddenly jumped up from her seat and spotted Hoseok and the man next to him in the distance. For a moment, she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the man next to Hoseok. Could that guy be Min Yoongi? Why is he here when he should be in Australia? Why? Did he call him? The questions kept nagging at her, and she couldn't find an answer. Her only instinct was to avoid him.
The heroine bit her lower lip and grabbed Jimin's hand. Then she spoke urgently.
"Let's go. I think we'll have to go to New York next week."
"Huh? Hey. Let's go."
Jimin quickly rose from his seat. The pain was so intense that he felt like screaming all over his body, but he bit the tender flesh in his mouth and held on. Yeoju grabbed Jimin's hand and fled without being seen. Yeoju had to turn her head to see behind and ahead, weaving her way through the crowd was exhausting, but she pushed through them blindly to survive.
It was then. As she was blindly pushing through, she didn't see what was ahead and bumped into a woman. Jimin caught the woman from behind, who almost fell, but the woman fell to the ground with her buttocks down because no one was there to catch her. The woman tried to help her up, but she stepped on something as she approached her.
Yeoju lowered her head and looked at her feet. It was a plane ticket. She picked it up and quickly glanced at it, surprised. The time zone was different, but the name was the same as the one for New York. Yeoju looked at the woman with an unreadable look in her eyes and held out her hand. The woman took Yeoju's hand and stood up. Yeoju said with an apologetic expression.
"I'm sorry, are you okay?"
"Oh, yes..."
"I... I just glanced at you, and you seem to be going to the same place. The time zones are different, though. If you don't mind, would you like to have my plane ticket? Something came up and I can't take it."
Yeoju handed over her plane ticket instead of the woman's. The woman, dumbfounded, accepted it. Then, perhaps after scanning the ticket, she realized that not only was the name the same, but it was indeed a flight to New York. Furthermore, the seat was business class. The woman's eyes widened as she looked at Yeoju, and Yeoju, in turn, looked at her and continued speaking.
"I feel so bad about giving you just this, so I wanted to repay you with something else. But... Would you like to go to the hotel I was planning to stay at? It's the JM Hotel. If that's okay with you, would you like to go?"
The female protagonist was staring blankly, unaware that the ice cream was melting. She was in such shock that she suddenly bumped into a woman and fell on her butt. When she helped her up, she found herself in a strange situation. Not only did she receive a business class plane ticket, she also ended up staying at the JM Hotel, the world's second-largest hotel.
It didn't feel real. Going to a hotel I couldn't go to even if I tried... Was this a dream? Yeoju grabbed her cheek hard, and it hurt so much. She rubbed her sore cheek and muttered.
"It's not a dream... Wow! Really?"
Going to the JM Hotel was a huge hit, but what the woman said earlier was even more amazing, so much so that I couldn't even close my mouth and thought my jaw would drop.
- You can go up to the top floor and stay in room 309000. If you want to stay longer, feel free to. I'll pay for it all, so come and enjoy yourself.
She was truly a wonderful woman. She was truly wonderful, but judging by her expression earlier, she seemed a bit uneasy. The heroine wiped the melted ice cream off her hand with a tissue, took a bite, and looked at the plane ticket. No matter how I looked at it, it was fascinating. Going to New York was the same—though she couldn't go due to circumstances—and even the name was the same, which was fascinating.
"Same name... Wow, that's amazing. To meet someone with the same name among all these people, it's really amazing... Huh? Time... is almost up? I should hurry and go."
My flight was earlier than scheduled, so I didn't have time to explore the airport, but whatever. I'll see what I want when I get back to Korea. Yeoju, excited, got up from her seat and stood in line to board the plane.
Not knowing what was to come, the heroine just smiled and boarded the plane.
📌 Thank you for watching and enjoying it. ☺️
