Chapter Index

    ‘Or perhaps this…’

    Is it fake?

    It was a sudden thought, but it was also very possible.

    Among the awakened, that is, those called hunters by Korean standards, there were many who had sensitive and sharp senses that were incomparable to those of ordinary people.

    In particular, this tendency is more pronounced for those who possess talents that directly affect the body, such as body enhancement. In the case of Yoon Soo-hyun, the target this time, it is presumed that he possesses a talent related to body enhancement.

    So, there is a good chance…

    ‘If this happens, the problem is…’

    It turned out that approaching the target would not be as easy as expected.

    This is not to say that you are weak, but it is an unavoidable problem. If you act like that and even bluff, it means that you have a rough guess as to how much you are worth.

    I guess that’s why I’m being cautious like this.

    But how do you approach someone who is in alert mode like that?

    If he succeeds in doing that all at once, wouldn’t he be the God of Temptation?

    ‘no wonder···.’

    He didn’t show much interest in her, which seemed a bit strange for someone who likes women… was that why?

    The following article may seem very suspicious from the target’s perspective.

    It is a very rare case for an exchange student to come to the Hunter Department, but the foreign student who came as an exchange student is so beautiful that it makes your eyes light up?

    Wouldn’t it be strange if you didn’t feel a sense of discomfort or suspicion in such a situation?

    Oh, of course, just in case that happens, her goal is not to become a hunter, but to work as an officer in the American Awakened Association, and to that end, she participated in an exchange student program to find out what the overall situation is like in other countries, so she put in place a safety measure. Even though I installed it… I couldn’t help but feel that it was disappointing.

    ‘I felt like this, so I prayed that it would be a good concept…’

    Anyway, as my seniors said, the people above were the problem.

    If they set the reference point as when they were working in the field, wouldn’t such an unreasonable setup emerge?

    It must have been a moment when, like a senior I once saw, he was chewing on the so-called superiors while still concentrating his mind on his ears.

    The conversation between the two people, which had stopped for a moment, resumed again, and thanks to this, I was able to capture everything in my ears without missing a single word.

    -If this is the case, you can learn the mental method or something you mentioned, right?

    Simbeop?

    What is the law of heart?

    If you look at the expression ‘learn’ attached to the end, it seems like this is also quite important.

    -That’s right, but first, let me tell you what you need to pay attention to during fortune telling.

    Lucky breakfast…?

    When it comes to breakfast… don’t you mean breakfast?

    As far as she knows, that’s what it is.

    No, that’s the part. Even so, why is the word “lucky” added to breakfast?

    And what are the things to pay attention to?

    As I felt my curiosity boiling over, Soohyun began to ramble on about what precautions I had to take.

    And in line with that, the mouth of the woman who was Han Joo-yeon also opened.

    -First of all… When having a fortune-telling breakfast, it would be best to do it in a place where there are no people if possible.

    ㅡWhy? Because you have to keep a secret?

    ㅡWell… there is that, but it can be dangerous if stimulation comes from outside during fortune telling. Especially when, like you, Joo-yeon Han, you have just entered the workforce.

    ㅡ···How does it become dangerous specifically?

    -There is something called qi and blood in the human body, and it gets twisted, and if you make a mistake the moment your qi and blood get tangled, even your life can be in danger.

    -If the side effects are that bad, isn’t this too dangerous?

    If you just listen to the nuance of what he’s saying, it seems like he’s talking about something very important, but maybe it’s because I’m constantly thinking that this might be a bluff to warn her off.

    I had to focus on the conversation, but that wasn’t as easy as it sounds.

    In addition, there are quite a few words that seem somewhat unfamiliar to her, who is quite fluent in Korean.

    ‘Let’s just write it all down.’

    She decided to leave the judgment up to the higher-ups and instead focus on the role that only a field agent could play.

    Of course, that was why I quickly started writing down the conversations that had taken place between the two on a notepad that I had taken out before I knew it.

    -Uh huh, side effects. Are you saying that if I just pay attention to what I said, it won’t happen in the first place?

    -Okay, that part aside, is that the only thing you need to be careful about?

    –No, besides this…

    The more I heard, the more I suspected bluffing, but the judgment will be made from above anyway.

    Just like that… the crunching sound of a pen moving across paper instantly filled the room.

    The notes Amelia wrote while squatting on the motel bed were turned into a decent report by another agent currently supporting her.

    And in that way, the completed report was delivered to the headquarters in Virginia in an instant.

    The report from Amelia that arrived at the headquarters literally turned the already busy headquarters upside down.

    It had no choice but to be like that.

    Bringing the code name ‘Double’ into the arms of the United States was so important that it hurts to say it twice.

    But the agent closest to the target in question sent a report by express?

    Wouldn’t it be strange that an emergency didn’t occur at that point?

    Thanks to this, the conference room where the hastily convened meeting was taking place was filled with people who could be said to be the core and responsible persons of each department within the Central Intelligence Agency, which happened to be located at the headquarters.

    “Now, this is the report urgently sent by the agent currently in charge of recruiting ‘Double’.”

    Originally, the director would have sat at the head table and led the meeting, but since the director was currently on a business trip to Washington, it was the deputy director, a former field agent, who was sitting at the head table and leading the meeting.

    And in accordance with the Deputy Director’s remarks, copies of Amelia Val’s report were distributed into the meeting room according to the number of people who decided to participate in the meeting.

    “Before I start the story, I would like everyone to read it first and understand the contents.”

    If the director, let’s say heaven, and the deputy director, the person directly below him, said so, there was no one present here who was crazy enough to go crazy.

    If he was that bad in the first place, there was a 99.9% chance that he would have been kicked out of the headquarters before even being appointed team leader.

    In addition… capturing the ‘Double’ and bringing it into the arms of the United States was one of the issues that the above was paying a lot of attention to.

    Could it be that those two factors had an influence?

    For a while, the only sound that was heard when turning over documents was the sound of ‘flapping’ that filled the conference room.

    How long has it been like that?

    “At this point, everyone has fully understood the content, right?”

    “···.”

    “Then, let’s all express our opinions honestly.”

    The deputy director said that if you have something to say, just say it, but with so many attendees in the meeting, opening your mouth was not as easy as it sounds.

    Thanks to this, there was silence in the conference room… Maybe they didn’t like this situation where everyone kept their mouths shut even though they were asked to speak?

    Just as the deputy director, who was sitting at the head of the table, began to feel a little strain between his eyes…

    “Isn’t that just a bluff?”

    One of them, who could not bear the pressure that came from there, took up the gun and went forward.

    “Is it a bluff?”

    “Yes, it’s quite common for targets to confuse field agents like this.”

    “That sounds like the agent currently in charge of the target was deceived by the target, is that correct?”

    ” Reading the report, it seems that I have mainly been doing support work, but this is my first time working in the field, so of course I can’t help but be clumsy.”

    Were there not only one or two people who thought that way?

    An atmosphere of sympathy with those words began to spread throughout the conference room.

    “Well… the more I read, the more I thought it didn’t make sense. Force, it’s not some kind of novel…”

    “That’s right. By the way… shouldn’t this be filtered out on site?”

    In the midst of this, an atmosphere that seemed to be criticizing the Human Resources Management Department, which had already been treated as a core department, was taking over the conference hall…

    “That…”

    Breaking the mood, someone raised their hand.

    “What is it? Let me tell you?”

    “So… what if? What if this isn’t a bluff?”

    “Maybe it’s not a bluff?”

    “···Yes, and if this is not a bluff… we must do whatever it takes to bring ‘Double’ into America’s arms.”

    A very solemn face.

    Therefore, the deputy director leading the meeting could not help but ask.

    “Why do you think so?”

    “That’s right… Maybe the key that can change the game of the times is held in the hands of the target.”
