“Ah, C Pearl.”
“Bastards, keugh. Ahhh, C Pearl!”
“Ahhh…”
Three assailants who were completely subdued while lying face down on the floor. Their masks are completely removed, and they are breathing heavily and swearing nonstop.
The bodyguards, including team leader Kim Pyeong-san, were pressing the back of the assailant one by one and completely suppressing the assailant’s arms.
I brought long cable ties and tied them around my wrists and ankles, and now I’m stuck.
Meanwhile, Hyeon-jun, who came down the stairs on the first floor, stared at the assailants.
“Are you okay?”
Team leader Kim Pyeong-san, who was tying up the assailants with cable ties, immediately stood up and said to Hyun-joon.
Hyunjoon immediately nodded.
“I am fine. You two did a good job blocking it.”
Hyeonjun pointed his eyes at bodyguards Lee Kang-hee and Han Seung-tae who had come with him.
Team leader Kim Pyeong-san glanced at them and nodded.
Then team leader Kim Pyeong-san pulled the head of the subdued guy hard and shouted ferociously.
“What are you going to do! How dare you go after the professor?”
“Hey, C Pearl!”
However, after vomiting swear words right away, the man turns his head and glares at Hyeon-jun.
At this time, their eyes met, but Hyun-joon was the first man he had ever seen in his life.
Age is around early to mid 20’s.
He is a man with very short hair and rough skin.
His face was flushed red, as if he had been beaten a lot during the fight, and blood was smeared around his lips from cracks.
“I contacted the police.”
Meanwhile, team leader Kim Pyung-san said that and stood up with his hands removed.
Police intervention is inevitable, so I don’t think we can interrogate them separately.
That’s why team leader Kim Pyeong-san stood up like that.
But why the hell did they do that?
After a while, Hyeon-jun checked the other faces one by one, but as expected, they were the first ones he had seen.
For what reason?
Are you trying to kill yourself? Or try to kidnap?
I don’t know yet.
and after a while
Police appeared with loud sirens.
The assailants were immediately handcuffed and taken away all at once.
Meanwhile, team leader Kim Pyeong-san and bodyguard Lee Kang-hee decided to move with the police to explain the detailed process.
On the other hand, Hyun-joon watched the scene being cleaned up surrounded by the other four bodyguards.
Certainly, the last time I increased the number of bodyguards to 2 shifts per day, 6 during the daytime and 6 during the night time, it seemed like a very good thing.
On the one hand, it was not enough to be satisfied with this level, but it seemed that the number of bodyguards should be increased.
“Hey, professor! I have a question for you.”
And after a while, the detective in charge came up to the victim, Hyeon-jun, and wanted to have a brief interview.
Hyeonjun responded first.
#
“Yes, I am Detective Hwang Dong-guk.”
In the meantime, he talked about the jurisdiction he belonged to, and after showing his ID, he started asking questions from then on.
Roughly what he figured out was that three men with knives suddenly appeared and attacked.
It was just such a matter that the bodyguards had blocked and subdued it.
Of course, the detailed circumstances should be confirmed more accurately through interrogation of the suspect.
First of all, there were many things that Hyeon-jun had to check.
“…and then you have to come back to the office and make a statement again. And one more question. By any chance, have there been any recent incidents that might cause you a grudge?”
So, it seems that he wants to roughly check whether the crime was caused by someone’s grudge.
“I do not know.”
However, after saying that, Hyeonjun tilted his head.
This is because you can hardly know if there are things that will make you hold a grudge against someone.
However, when I thought about it, there were a few things that caught on.
Things related to Kim Hyung-joon. Didn’t he suddenly intervene and save Kim Hyung-joon? Afterwards, it is said that the stock price manipulator forces related to him were wiped out by the speculum, but the whereabouts of the leadership are still unknown.
And thinking about it, there is one more.
The things related to President Kim Byung-soo.
However, Hyeon-joon cannot immediately determine what the problem really is.
In the end, Hyun-joon withheld the answer.
Instead, after asking for permission from detective Hwang Dong-guk, I hurriedly called someone.
#
“Yes, I am. Mr. Lawyer. I’ve had some circumstances now… Yes, that’s not different…”
Then, Hyeon-jun quickly finished his explanation, and immediately handed over his smartphone so that attorney Son Byung-ho could communicate with detective Hwang Dong-guk.
The purpose of making such a call was to make contact through lawyer Son Byeong-ho from now on.
Detective Hwang Dong-guk, who returned the smartphone to Hyeon-jun after a brief conversation, was immediately taken aback.
“Professor, but why is a lawyer involved here? Since the professor is a victim, all you have to do is come to the office and make a brief statement.”
However, Hyunjoon answered simply.
“For circumstances, please tell my lawyer about the details, and I will take care of it right away.”
In fact, why would you hire a lawyer? Isn’t it because I don’t like being called around for various things and having that kind of time taken away?
But just then, another detective suddenly came close to Detective Hwang Dong-guk and whispered something in his ear.
As soon as he heard that, the look in his eyes changed.
In particular, detective Hwang Dong-guk, who was staring at Hyeon-joon with surprised eyes.
“Professor Hyeonjun Choi by any chance? Oh right. You said you were Professor Choi Hyun-joon. Aigoo, I’m sorry. professor! I had no idea I was that famous.”
“Oh, no.”
“Wow, I was really surprised all of a sudden. Since there are bodyguards, I thought it was a little different. I knew it! Then, could this case be aimed at money…?”
Then, detective Hwang Dong-guk with twinkling eyes.
“Honestly, I don’t know.”
“Ah, I see what you mean. We will investigate the details very actively and will contact you as soon as it is confirmed. And you must have been very surprised, but you should take a break first. Thank you for your cooperation.”
After that, detective Hwang Dong-guk didn’t bother anymore and stepped back very carefully.
On the other hand, Hyun-joon could confirm that students and staff had gathered from all sides.
There was a fierce fight a while ago.
Since then, the police have appeared in droves, so anyone will have to pay attention.
#
“professor! Wouldn’t it be better to go back to the office right away?”
On the other hand, bodyguard Han Seung-taek suggested that, but Hyun-joon shook his head after thinking for a while.
I almost got hurt out of nowhere, but isn’t there a purpose for visiting the business incubation center?
A visit to the [Farm Blockbuster Inc] office.
“First, let’s stop by the office and then go back.”
Then Hyunjoon turned his head.
Come to think of it, [Farm Blockbuster Inc] employees also came down to the first floor and looked at me with surprised eyes.
They were bowing their heads as soon as Hyeonjun recognized them and looked at them.
Since we saw each other’s faces at the interview, we were familiar with each other.
As Hyeon-joon approached, a woman who appeared to be in her early 30s came forward a little further and opened her mouth politely.
“CEO, are you okay?”
“Ah, you’re Manager Jihyun Kim, right?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“Fortunately I am fine. First of all, let’s go to the office and talk. By the way, is Manager Kim okay? You seem very surprised?”
“no. what am i?”
At the same time, Manager Kim Ji-hyeon shook his hand.
She is a career manager who joined [Farm Blockbuster Inc] through the recommendation of Jeon Byeong-seok, CEO of [JBS Financial].
She originally worked in the secretariat of a large corporation.
However, her career was temporarily interrupted due to parental leave, and afterward, she joined the secretary team of a venture company and was recommended by Jeon Byeong-seok, the CEO, so she joined Hyun-joon’s [Farm Blockbuster Inc].
“Oh, and no more worries. I plan to do my best to deal with this matter in my own line. In particular, I plan to make suggestions to the school regarding security issues. If that doesn’t work, we will actively consider moving our office to a place with better security.”
“CEO, then, are you saying that the office location can be moved?”
While walking together and exchanging conversations, Manager Kim Ji-hyun’s eyes were shining.
At this time, Hyunjoon nodded.
“yes. If not, you have to move. Safety is the most important thing anyway.”
In fact, Hyun-joon was a bit disappointed about the university security system when he suddenly encountered this incident.
Of course, the university itself cannot completely block the entry and exit of many people. Usually, it is a place where ordinary students come and go during rest, so they cannot completely control it.
However, there was also a problem with the reporters the other day.
With the problem of the gangsters this time, Hyeon-joon’s mind became a little more complicated.
Fortunately, the company had accumulated a lot of investment, so Hyun-joon began to consider the idea of making [Farm Blockbuster Inc] completely independent from the school.
Of course, that wasn’t something to decide right away.
and after a while
Hyun-joon stopped by the [Farm Blockbuster Inc] office and held a meeting.
Currently, the company staff consists of 3 secretaries and 3 members of the finance team, but first of all, various work orders were given so that various pending issues could be dealt with quickly without distinction of such teams.
In particular, the hiring of researchers must be carried out immediately, and practical tasks such as obtaining patent rights from school industrial complexes must be carried out.
In addition to various administrative processes such as labor contracts, you have to hurry up and do miscellaneous things such as setting up laboratories.
So, I spread out various tasks.
After finishing the meeting, Hyeon-jun held another meeting alone with manager Kim Ji-hyeon after a while.
“Chief Kim. Then, please take care of my schedule from now on, and besides that, please take care of the entire staff for the time being.”
“all right. CEO.”
“And from now on, I plan to hire as many employees as possible. Later, if conditions permit, you can consider assigning them to other companies.”
“CEO, what if you say you are assigned to another company?”
“Ah, there is such a thing. Anyway, those who joined [Farm Blockbuster] will have greater opportunities in the future.”
First of all, Hyeonjun answered like that.
“Then, CEO! Wouldn’t it be better to hire people with experience in the human resources department as soon as possible?”
“Yes, that is good too. In addition to that, I will look into hiring for team leader and executive level employees. As you know, our company is just getting started. It was the first spoon I had in my hand. There are many things we lack, but we will quickly fill them up.”
“yes. I have high expectations too.”
At the same time, Manager Kim Ji-hyun’s eyes twinkle.
I found out during the last interview that the representative is a very famous billionaire these days, so her expectations are bound to grow even more. The owner of the venture that I happened to join was a really amazing person.
After such a long meeting, Hyeon-jun checked the current time.
It is already approaching 6:00 in the evening.
From the beginning of the morning until now, the time has gone by so fast.
Hyunjoon stood up from his seat.
After saying hello to the staff leaving work.
I returned to my professor’s office.
Not long after that, there was a sudden knocking sound.
He was a graduate student in the laboratory.
#
“uh? What is it?”
Hyeonjun stared at the computer monitor for a while.
Hyeon-jun turned his head and asked in a puzzled way, and the student was answering while looking straight ahead.
“This is the mail, I brought it from the department office. Just because it’s piling up…”
“okay! Thank you.”
Then, Hyun-jun moved his gaze back to the monitor.
After checking the emails sent to my school account one by one, I stood up.
Then I started to go through the mail the student had left behind one by one.
In the meantime, Hyun-jun picked up a letter among the piles of mail and looked closely at it.
A letter without the sender’s name.
Hyeon-jun was puzzled and immediately opened the letter.
