Chapter 83: Idea
Sigh
With the secretary gone the director rested his back on his chair and sighed while staring at the ceiling. Even though his day had just started he seemed way too exhausted.
'If I don't find it then I'll end up like him," the director mused while thinking about what had happened to the previous director who had failed to do the same task.
'Interesting,' Jin who had been listening through the bug thought. He soon flew the bug away from the director's shoulder and made it rest on top of a table clock. This way the chances of the bug accidentally getting crushed are reduced.
The secretary soon arrived with the documents and the director started glancing over them one by one as if looking for something in particular.
'Got it,' He thought as he picked up a file which was named: W.B Findings
To the uninitiated, it would look like a normal file but only the higher-ups of the main branch were aware of its importance.
"Tell me about the progress related to this issue," The director said as he showed the file cover to his secretary.
The secretary observed the file's name and soon replied, "The findings have been very limited Mr. Benjamin. I had delegated some men to look into the places the person visited frequently but still, it was up to no avail. We still have no idea where he had hidden the flash drive,"
"What about his colleagues? The ones with whom he interacted a lot when he worked here?" The director asked as he opened the file and started going through the contents.
"We've investigated them all for a period of time but failed to find much of anything," The secretary said.
"And how long was this period of time of yours?" The director asked as he lifted his gaze from the file and pointed it towards his secretary.
"It was two months sir, the men we hired spied on each of the individuals for two months," The secretary answered.
"Hire them again and this time do it for 6 months. Make sure to warn them not to be lax and also set an attractive reward if they manage to find something useful. I want results no matter what within these 6 months." The director ordered as his eyes went back to the file.
"I understand sir," The secretary replied.
"Hmm? What's this? Why is this individual marked in red?" The director said out loud but his gaze soon saw the explanation which was written beside the man's name.
The secretary had figured out whom the director was curious about and was about to answer him but was soon stopped by the director's next words.
"This man named Johan, no need to waste our time on him. It's better to focus on other individuals rather than waste our time and energy on someone like him," The director ordered.
"I understand sir," The secretary nodded. He too agreed with the director's decision since there was really no way to get anything useful out of a person like that.
With that said the secretary soon left to make the required preparations while the director busied himself with other miscellaneous stuff.
'Johan' Jin who had been listening to their conversation scribbled the name on the paper and made a question mark in front of the name. He felt a bit curious towards this individual but it was only a bit. His main attention was more towards what he had scribbled above it. It was the name of the file they were talking about: W.B Findings.
Others might have taken a bit longer to consider it, but the moment Jin saw that name, he was clear that those letters stood for his father's initials.
He needed to get hold of it if he wanted to know more about what these bastards were looking for. The question was how. How would he be able to get hold of that file?
'Should I just kidnap that director and torture him till he reveals everything?' Jin thought of an idea but decided to put it on hold for now.
He had no idea what his father had been dealing with but he was sure that it was something very serious so he needed to make sure he didn't poke the hornet's nest before finding out why his father was killed. Otherwise, it would become more difficult for him to find out later on.
"I need to think of a more discreet way…" Jin leaned back on his chair and mused while staring at the ceiling.
He wanted to secretly enter the branch office and take a look at that file but the problem was the biometric scanner at the door.
"Just how should I deal with that finger and iris scanner…" Jin muttered in an annoyed manner. His gaze went over the morning's newspaper that was on the bed on his side.
'Get your hands on the newly launched DOLO H5… There was an advertisement on the first page like usual. Just out of curiosity, Jin read the ad a bit further.
"Waterproof? That's pretty neat. A 50MP camera? Interesting what else does it have…..fingerprint sensor…hmm" Jin was going over the plus points of the product which was highlighted in bold but suddenly paused when his gaze went over the fingerprint sensor.
He glanced at his phone after that. His was an old model in which there was no fingerprint sensor and it was the same case with the phone which was linked to KIA.
"Looks like it's time to buy a new phone," Jin thought with an excited expression. He soon changed into suitable clothes and left the hotel a few minutes later. He was very excited to apply the idea which had just entered his mind.
"Good morning Sir, How can I help you?" The mobile shop assistant asked with a smile.
"DOLO H5, I'll buy it," Jin said without any hesitation.
Jin soon paid for his new phone in full and while the data from his old phone was being transferred to this one he asked the assistant about how to use the fingerprint sensor.
The assistant explained everything he needed to know about the fingerprint sensor and how to input his fingerprint on his device. With that, Jin now had a clear idea about it.
"Technology sure is amazing isn't it?" Jin asked the shop assistant with a gleeful expression on his face after he had finished with his explanation.
"Huh? Yes, absolutely sir, you're right haha!" The assistant replied though a bit weirded out by Jin's expression.
A few moments later Jin left the mobile shop with a new phone in his possession.
