Chapter 43 (2/2)
Actually, he didn’t know much about philosophy, but he felt that way anyway.
In his mind, the Representative was a handsome and mysterious person. Indeed, the Representative was also his savior who changed his low status overnight as he had been working at the factory and logistics warehouse.
At that moment, the factory’s massive gate opened and strange people came in.
Two security guards appeared, dragging a young man.
“Branch manager!”
The security guard pushed the back of the man with his hands tied.
“Like you said, I’ve caught this intruder. He was peeking inside the factory at the entrance.”
The man already caught?
It was true that the branch manager told his men to be alert because the man who had murdered “team leader Park” who went hunting could intrude the factory. So how is it possible that the murderer was caught so easily?
“Oh my…It looks like the Representative’s worry was groundless.”
The branch manager laughed uncontrollably. He looked down at the intruder who was dragged down the railing. He was an ordinary young man. But, strangely enough, he looked relaxed.
Rather than looking at him, the young man was absent-minded, looking around the factory as if he were here on a field trip.
“Hey!”
Only after the branch manager shouted at him for a few seconds did the man raise his head. The branch manager felt embarrassed rather than upset.
“Who are you? Huh? Did you kill team leader Park?”
The young man tilted his head at that question and said, “Team leader Park?”
“Yes, team leader Park.”
Then the young man burst into laughter. It sounded like he was mocking them.
“Was the dead man wearing a business card on his forehead?”
“What the heck?”
“How would I know if you ask me about the title that only you guys know? I know you condescending guys are doing obscure business. Then, what’s your title?”
“…I’m a branch manager!”
The young man laughed again and asked back, “Branch manager of what?”
“…”
“Damn it, you must be a branch manager in your own imagination, right?”
When this conversation was going on, the atmosphere of the factory was heavy and cold.
The other gang members were checking the branch manager’s expression, at a loss about what to do. But the branch manager, with veins standing out on his temple, was gnashing his teeth in anger.
“I asked you who you are…”
But the young man laughed once again and asked, “Didn’t you get a call from your Representative?”
The Representative’s warning that Park’s murderer would invade the factory was correct.
But the branch manager would have never expected this kind of intrusion.
In the meantime, whispering began to spread among the people taken hostage in the factory.
“You know that man, right?”
“Yes, I remember. He’s the man I saw on campus.”
“Why? Who is he?”
“He was the one who saved us all on campus.”
As the voices of those who recognized the man began to spread, the branch manager felt something strange.
“Shut up! Hey, make them shut their mouths.”
Then the branch manager started to descend the iron staircase grudgingly, and faced the young man.
“So, you’ve decided to intrude this place directly?”
“Well, I have been escorted here.”
The branch manager turned his eyes and looked at his arms. Obviously, his arms were completely bound behind his back.
