Chapter 31

“Who are you?”

At Yi-hyeon’s question the woman smiled gradually and answered.

“Hmm··· let’s go somewhere quiet and talk. My car is over there. First here is too hot.”

This woman, somehow touches the nerves. First not missing Yi-hyeon’s gaze is also so and not answering the question of who and only saying her own words.

And decisively the speech style is not to his liking. A feeling of exactly thinking herself above the other and spitting out.

Yi-hyeon who was looking down at the woman smirked.

“Since the weather is hot all sorts of people···.”

Muttering so he turned with a swish.

Like a person asking if one knows the Way on the street.

“Eh? Wait a moment. Where are you going? The talk hasn’t ended yet.”

The woman speaking in a dumbfounded tone tried to grab the turning Yi-hyeon’s arm. Of course Yi-hyeon does not obediently give his arm.

Hwik.

Trying to grab somewhere.

Without even looking back Yi-hyeon who avoided the woman’s hand walked as is to the stop, a flustered look rose on the woman’s face.

“Um, wait a moment. Song Yi-hyeon?”

The woman who ran with quick steps and blocked the front and spoke now had a reddened face. Now surrounding people also began to pay attention and when it became so, Yi-hyeon also begins to mind.

Why today’s luck is like this. Yi-hyeon looked straight at the woman and asked.

“I’ll ask only once more. Who are you, you?”

If trying to gloss over this time too he will not deal with anymore.

Now the woman also hardened her face and answered.

“I am Kim Hye-na. Here is my business card.”

She took out a business card from the large bag slung on the shoulder and gave it to Yi-hyeon. The woman’s speech became a little upright.

Sale Investment

Senior Kim Hye-na

Seoul Yeongdeungpo-gu Yeouido-dong XXX – XXX

010-XXXX-XXXX

With similar content the back is in English. Investment company··· would she have looked up the details he invested domestically and come.

Yi-hyeon who examined the business card opened his mouth.

“Yes. Senior Kim Hye-na. I know it’s not that you came to tell me to cultivate the Way. What is the business?”

The woman who saw Yi-hyeon still not unfolding his expression opened her mouth and was dumbfounded and then said.

“Quite rude on first meeting.”

Looking at the serious woman Yi-hyeon sighed. There are exactly people like this.

She commits the rudeness first and rather gets angry at the other reacting to it. Such people mostly are cases of thinking themselves in a superior position, is this woman also that type.

She does not particularly look like a woman in a superior position.

Senior of an investment company? It would be a position about section chief but in Yeouido they are scattered. Outfit that does not look particularly expensive even at a glance, and the accessories worn on the body are only a thin gold-colored bracelet.

Though Yi-hyeon does not evaluate people by the outward attire, he analyzes in his own way. Meaning judging the situation.

Only, for a woman the height is large and physique is good. Looking now a body that seems considerably trained. Dark skin and a face with refreshing outline.

“What business does an investment company employee have with me? And where did you find out my name?”

If coming to find me one has to say that first. And an investment company employee has such a trained body? That too a woman?

Yi-hyeon who swept the woman’s hand again laughed inwardly. There was a callus on the woman’s right palm. A hand that held a pistol for a long time.

Yi-hyeon’s intuition was telling. This woman is not a simple company employee.

“Including that talk, first shall we move places?”

Persistent for now. Even after being embarrassed that much one might just go back.

It is certain that this woman came to find him with a clear purpose. Then.

“You are not a person working at an investment company. So this business card also cannot be believed. Is there a need for us to continue conversation more than this?”

When Yi-hyeon matched eyes blankly and spoke without smiling a troubled expression rose on the woman’s face. Then exhaling a long sigh she said. Bringing her head close to Yi-hyeon and speaking low.

“I, actually came from an agency. Came to consult on an important matter regarding Song Yi-hyeon’s personal affairs, please make time.”

“Agency···.”

Yi-hyeon became a little dumbfounded mood but thought there was value to talk. Because the woman’s expression looked sincere and desperate in its own way.

Yi-hyeon who looked around turned his head and pointed to the cafe at the university entrance and said.

“Let’s go there. There is no time to go far.”

No matter how much a woman Yi-hyeon is not one who would carelessly ride a car just because a complete stranger says to ride. How many years of agent life.

The woman obediently followed. And while doing so not modestly watching Yi-hyeon’s signs but walking with big steps does not mind surrounding gazes.

The two people took seats in a corner inside the cafe and sat. The woman sits with her back to the wall. Yi-hyeon noted that point.

A woman who does not want to show her back to others··· is it because in an agency.

The woman who took a sip of the received iced coffee immediately opened her mouth.

“Since there are instructions from above I will talk right away. I am Team Leader Yu Min-seon of Team 7 belonging to Bureau 5 of the National Intelligence Service.”

“······.”

Though there are quite a few people inside the cafe and noisy so such talk was also buried in the noise.

Yi-hyeon blinked his eyes and then asked.

“That··· why did that place come to find me?”

Now he did not ask how she found out his name. Though one has to confirm if self-proclaimed National Intelligence Service finding out his name is what.

So the pretty name Kim Hye-na on the business card is a pseudonym?

The woman, self-proclaimed Team Leader Yu Min-seon crossed her legs and sat and even crossed her arms and said.

“Came to say let’s work together with us.”

“······.”

Yi-hyeon was speechless as expected. He took a sip of the cold coffee on the table and opened his mouth.

“Originally does that place select and use people like this?”

Really he asked because truly curious. Though he does not know if still so these days, before every autumn the National Intelligence Service used to post public recruitment notices online. National Intelligence Service grade 7 employee recruitment guidelines something like this. Much earlier he heard they printed recruitment notices like large posters and stuck them on the university bulletin boards.

Of course they would not recruit unofficial agents like that. But coming carelessly like today and saying let’s work together is a bit not right?

“Originally not like this to just anyone. Do you know General Im Gi-yong?”

This woman is talking about Commander Im.

He knows. He knows well. Former commander of the 707 special mission unit. Nickname Dragon.

When he was working and making a fuss with trouble with the US military he was promoted to general and went to a rear division. Though promotion to general that soldiers desire even in dreams it was an appearance of being pushed politically due to conflict with the US military.

The lonely appearance of calling him and worrying about the situation after he left 707 rose.

In fact he has a little sorry feeling toward that gentleman. Though also a fellow disciple who privately learned from Monk Muae he was a bit slippery. The fact that that gentleman could not become the special forces brigade commander he so desired and went to a rear unit he also provided the cause.

“I know. General Im Gi-yong.”

When Yi-hyeon nodded, Yu Min-seon smiled and said.

“That person recommended Song Yi-hyeon. In fact these days there is a severe shortage of useful agents in the company. So we requested to the army. Not only special forces but also the intelligence command or navy special warfare brigade the same.”

In other words it was talk that there is a shortage of agents to run on the intelligence field. Seeking special forces origin the main mission would be ‘body shield’.

“Is Team Leader Yu also a field agent?”

At Yi-hyeon’s question Yu Min-seon smiled with an expression of asking all sorts and said.

“Haha. Curious about that? I, even looking like this am from the Black Widow unit.”

“Ho!”

Yi-hyeon admired in his own way.

Black Widow unit.

A special mission unit under the Capital Defense Command that performs urban street anti-terror missions. Also called special rental and now the name changed to Taeho unit, but people inside the Capital Defense Command call it Samo special forces or Samo special mission he heard. Due to the unit character they are set to digest airborne training too so regularly go to special forces to receive education.

Uniquely there is a special mission company composed only of women inside Samo special forces and this woman seems from there.

“When I worked I was rumored as the Capital Defense Command witch. Haha.”

Aha! He has a memory of hearing that too.

As something a senior told when he was working there was a history’s greatest crazy team leader (company commander) in the Capital Defense Command special mission company and the nickname is ‘Capital Defense Command witch’. Since that was about ten years ago the woman in front seems that ‘witch’.

This woman seems older than she looks.

“Amazing. That Team Leader Yu was that rumored witch. Then, do you still carry a gun?”

Now Yi-hyeon smiled roundly and asked. A question like a child even thinking himself. Not even in operation would one carry a gun in downtown Seoul.

That much Yi-hyeon’s wariness had also loosened. He felt homogeneity in the point that this woman is also special forces origin.

“Haha, curious about that?”

Yu Min-seon smiled and lowered the crossed legs and slightly raised the skirt.

Eek!

He ended up seeing up to the deep place of the thigh raising the skirt a lot. And even the gun in the holster fastened on the thigh.

“Chief’s Special. Suitable for madam use.”

Yi-hyeon said slightly turning his head.

“As expected! Only showed slightly but recognized right away.”

This auntie! You raised the skirt that much completely.

“If Song Yi-hyeon joins you will work with me. Of course not telling to quit school and do exclusively, well if doing so it would be good, but cannot tell to quit this good university. Probably joining according to the operation and briefly matching hands and feet and entering the field. Well, cannot do detailed talk at this place.”

So it means he will receive this woman’s command. If joining this team.

Yi-hyeon smiled and opened his mouth. Though not remaining antipathy like when first seeing this woman, he has to answer.

“I will refuse the proposal. I have many things to do.”

Yu Min-seon opened her eyes round and asked.

“Eh? Why? This is a good opportunity for Song Yi-hyeon too. Serving for the country while receiving considerable allowance. Not refusing this, think well once more. If we become one team···.”

“I will refuse.”

He said sharply once more. Because the woman looked considerably shameless and persistent.

One must not give an opening.

And the words ‘considerable allowance’ he can endure. Because it would be sound she made not knowing his circumstances. But, telling to serve for the country?

He won’t!

He rolled and ran for full 4 years. Thanks to that to the point of even receiving a US military medal.

Now he has to do his own work. There is no more time to play with guns more than this.

Yi-hyeon stood up from the seat.

“The coffee was good. Then.”

“Um, wait a moment. Song Yi-hyeon! Let’s talk a little more.”

To her who hurriedly stood up packing the bag Yi-hyeon waved his hand and turned.

“Ah, shit. Why is that guy so arrogant?”

Yu Min-seon who followed Yi-hyeon out of the cafe in the end only saw Yi-hyeon’s annoying back of the head. She came to scout that young kid asking General Im Gi-yong whom she has face with usually, but completely a wasted trip.

But seeing the real thing today General Im’s words were a little suspicious. That kid who looks neat like a porridge bowl licked by a puppy is that outstanding? In her view he looks like an annoying model, but the best specialist in history.

Anyway I marked you!

You have to enter our team.

Leaving Yu Min-seon’s ambition behind Yi-hyeon went home. Though a bit hot in the afternoon, he intends to run by the Han River and go to a nearby sports center and swim too.

Oh, before that shall he go to the department store and buy clothes?

Meeting Sion before enlisting the body type changed a lot so the clothes worn before do not fit. Also clothes that passed at least a few years so fallen from fashion too.

Even before enlisting Yi-hyeon wore clothes well. Thanks to wealthy parents living in the key point of Gangnam he grew up not knowing lack. Now he earned much more money by investment than the property inherited from parents.

Thanks to Sion the investment hit the jackpot.

Currently most investment assets are invested in overseas companies. Because it became too big for an individual to move in the domestic investment market so now he has no choice but to move in the US. Soon according to Sion’s advice he plans to go to the US and establish an investment corporation.

To do so he needs a person who knows that system well···

Shall he ask Lawyer Kim Gyu-jeong.

Come to think of it he has not even gone to greet after discharge yet.

There is a lot to do, a lot.

Entering the Apgujeong house Yi-hyeon could know again.

Someone came again!

Now he can know immediately upon seeing. Before going out he used a few simple tricks so that if someone enters one can recognize.

For example in the way of lightly sprinkling fine chalk powder on the entrance door lock.

These bastards!

What the guys are aiming for is that OOPART they suspect the father left. They are still looking for that.

If so shall he just move the materials related to the father to another place?

If renting a suitable warehouse and storing there it seems they will not come find this side anymore. Those guys will continue to dig that warehouse.

Even doing so nothing will come out. Sion has already become one with him so what.

No, at this opportunity shall he rather find another house and move? Leaving this house as is.

Yi-hyeon whose thoughts became complicated in various ways decided to go to the department store instead of exercise. To buy clothes and a few necessary things while thinking of it.

The department store··· is right in front of the house. Yeondae Department Store.
