32 You offended a wrong person (2/2)
Nam Ji Won and her father leave the house. They walk instead of taking a cab. The police station isn't far from their home.
”I am sorry.” Nam Ji Won repeats her apology. ”I am sorry.”
Her father doesn't reply. He holds her hand tightly. His eyes are stern but full of emotions. They are about to cross the road when he sees a truck speeding in their direction.
”Ji Won Ah!” He tries to push her away, but he can't let go of her hand. The time is suddenly slow. Nam Ji Won slowly turns her head to look at him. Her eyes slowly widen when she sees the truck. The truck rams into them.
”Job's complete.” A man wears his sunglasses back again in the car from a distant. He has been following the father and daughter since they left the house.
”The client asked to make sure that the girl doesn't die.” He hears on the phone. ”She should get hurt, but she shouldn't die.”
”I have to make sure that she doesn't die after such an accident?” The man laughs. ”Do you know how much energy it takes to control two minds at the same time. The truck driver was easy, but that girl's father was a tough one.”
”If she lives, it's fine. Her condition doesn't matter.” The voice is mechanical and emotionless. ”The client will pay double of the original fees if you make sure that she lives a miserable life.”
”What's a miserable life?” The man looks at the crowd around the two bodies. ”I think that my life is miserable enough.”
”CC, don't argue with me. The girl might not have enough time left.”
”Her heart is still beating.”
”So?”
”Ask the client what I should exactly do.”
There is a long pause. Then, the phone rings again. CC puts it on the speaker.
”A mind lock is fine. She shouldn't ever wake up. The client will make sure that she lives a long life in bed.”
The ambulance arrives. The father and daughter's bodies are carried inside the ambulance. He follows it to the hospital. ”It's a pity. Anyway, I will do my final work. I will make sure that she lives a miserable life.”
”Do it cleanly.” The voice reminds him. ”She should never wake up.”
CC goes inside the hospital. She has already been taken to the operating room. The girl's family hasn't arrived yet. He doesn't go near her. His range is nearly ten meters. He focuses on her. He finds her easily. He goes inside her head. He finds it too quiet, but it's natural if the person was going through a near death experience. He puts a shield around her mind with a lock inside the mind. That way, she can never wake up. He comes back inside his body and destroys the key.
”My apologies,” He says to her from a distance. ”You offended a wrong person. After you die as sleeping beauty, have a good next life. Don't offend anyone like my client.”
