Episode 89

 

Clatter.

 

“Hello.”

 

“…Hello.”

 

Kim Ji-hu watched the two people enter and nodded to Choi Tae-geon.

 

This was the signal.

 

It was a signal that the contact had been successful.

 

Choi Tae-geon quietly sent a text to the police, and Kim Ji-hu immediately closed his eyes.

 

‘It’s better to use the synchronization ability here.’

 

He needed to buy time and not get caught, so he tried to hide his expression as much as possible with the synchronization ability.

 

So the synchronization role he had prepared in advance was.

 

“Hello! I’m Kim Ji-hu!”

 

An energetic new employee role.

 

He chose this role thinking that a friendly feeling would be good for buying time.

 

There were two people who entered.

 

One was a person in a suit who looked like a studio-related person, and the other was.

 

‘Hmm…?’

 

A person wearing a simple gray hooded zip-up with anxious eyes.

 

Sweat was flowing from his forehead.

 

‘It’s not weather to sweat in… And with those clothes.’

 

Since it was still spring weather, it wasn’t as cold as winter, but it was quite chilly.

 

But to sweat like that wearing such a thin hooded zip-up.

 

His physique was also very skinny, so it didn’t seem like he would sweat much, which was strange.

 

Kim Ji-hu immediately realized.

 

‘Could he be a drug user?’

 

However, he didn’t show that thought on his face and just looked at the two with a bright smile.

 

The man in the suit spoke.

 

“Hello. I’m Jang Dae-sik from Bond Studio. This is Director Go Bin who will be in charge of this project.”

 

“Nice to meet you! As I introduced earlier, I’m Kim Ji-hu, and this is our manager Choi Tae-geon.”

 

“Haha! It’s nice that you’re so energetic. I’ve heard a lot about you, Ji-hu. Aren’t you one of the hottest actors these days?”

 

“Ahaha, I was lucky. But now I want to prove myself with skill rather than luck.”

 

The man in the suit who introduced himself as Jang Dae-sik waved his hands.

 

“Hey, if Ji-hu didn’t prove himself with skill, then who did? Isn’t that right, Director?”

 

“…Yes. That’s right.”

 

Despite his appearance, his voice sounded hoarse.

 

Kim Ji-hu spoke brightly as if he didn’t care at all.

 

“Then shall we get into the project discussion? Director Park Sang-pil strongly recommended it, so I came with quite high expectations.”

 

“Is that so? Haha, then the project… Wait a moment.”

 

Jang Dae-sik took out his phone at the vibration sound.

 

‘This is… definitely…’

 

Kim Ji-hu glanced at Choi Tae-geon.

 

Choi Tae-geon shook his head.

 

That meant there was still time before the police would arrive.

 

“Huh… This is a bit bad.”

 

“Excuse me?”

 

“Right now we suddenly have an urgent matter and need to go. Director. The company says there’s a problem. Let’s go.”

 

“…Ugh. Yes…”

 

Jang Dae-sik and Director Go Bin stood up from their seats.

 

Kim Ji-hu thought for a moment and then spoke.

 

“Where are you going?”

 

“We’re going to the company. We really have an urgent matter…”

 

“No, it’s not an urgent matter, but there’s a problem with Jung Tae-hyun, right?”

 

Choi Tae-geon’s eyes widened at Kim Ji-hu’s words.

 

“Ji, Ji-hu?”

 

“He seems to have noticed.”

 

At those words, Jang Dae-sik ran his hand through his hair.

 

“What the hell, damn it. Are you guys together?”

 

“That’s why you shouldn’t go around messing with just anyone.”

 

Jang Dae-sik let out a laugh as if he couldn’t believe it.

 

Then he quickly ran toward the door.

 

“Gasp!”

 

At the same time, Kim Ji-hu also kicked off the floor.

 

Kim Ji-hu chased after Jang Dae-sik.

 

“Get lost!”

 

“Ugh!”

 

Jang Dae-sik pushed Director Go Bin, who was following him, toward Kim Ji-hu.

 

Thud!

 

Kim Ji-hu caught Director Go Bin.

 

“Are you okay!”

 

“Ugh…”

 

Looking at his condition, he seemed fine. Kim Ji-hu immediately put him down on the floor and started chasing Jang Dae-sik.

 

“Don’t come, you bastard!”

 

“If you tell me not to come, would I not go?”

 

There was one more reason why Kim Ji-hu synchronized with this role.

 

It was that this new employee wasn’t an ordinary office worker.

 

To be precise.

 

‘This role is a former police officer.’

 

If it were the usual Kim Ji-hu, he would have been flustered from the start, but now his mind was working sharply.

 

How to chase the opponent. How to corner him came clearly into his head.

 

Moreover, thanks to exercising all this time, there were no problems physically or in terms of stamina.

 

Then a loud sound echoed through the building.

 

“Where did he go!!!”

 

“Find him quickly!!”

 

It was the voices of the police.

 

“Aaahhh!!!”

 

Jang Dae-sik shouted in an angry voice, then while running, put his hand into his bag.

 

At the same time, Jang Dae-sik stopped his running legs.

 

A knife was coming out of the bag.

 

It was a movement to stab Kim Ji-hu rather than get caught.

 

But Kim Ji-hu already had a response prepared for such movements.

 

“Gasp!”

 

“Kugh!”

 

Kim Ji-hu used his running speed to ram into him with his body.

 

So Jang Dae-sik was pushed back and dropped the knife.

 

Kim Ji-hu quickly pounced on him.

 

He grabbed his arms and pressed his face down, subduing him.

 

“Damn it!!!!!!! This!!!! Let go of this!!!!”

 

He struggled, but Kim Ji-hu never let go.

 

Kim Ji-hu was much superior in terms of strength.

 

‘But I can’t keep holding him forever…! Police officers, please hurry…’

 

Clap clap clap!

 

Just then, the sound of applause came from beside them.

 

“Oh, excellent.”

 

A man emerged through the emergency exit door. A police officer wearing sunglasses. It was Dok-go Cheol.

 

The other police officers were searching downstairs, so he didn’t know why this person was coming out from here, but it was fortunate for now.

 

“Pl-please help me. I think I’m about to lose him!”

 

“Your body movements and restraining techniques are perfect – have you ever thought about becoming a police officer?”

 

“I don’t care about that, just catch him quickly!”

 

“Hmm, you seem like very good talent. With this level, you could even get a special recruitment.”

 

“Just catch him quickly!!”

 

Dok-go Cheol clicked his tongue and put handcuffs on Jang Dae-sik.

 

“You have the right to appoint a lawyer…”

 

“Damn it!!!”

 

“Someone’s talking to you, you bastard!”

 

Dok-go Cheol was holding onto Jang Dae-sik while reciting the Miranda rights.

 

‘Th-thank goodness…’

 

And so the operation came to an end.

 

***

 

“Ta-Tae-hyun took drugs?”

 

“He didn’t actually take them, just put them in his mouth. He doesn’t seem to have any problems, but he’s getting examined at the hospital just in case.”

 

“That was almost a disaster…”

 

“Well, he said he only drank water and kept the pill under his tongue, but it was fortunate we dealt with it quickly.”

 

Kim Ji-hu was in the middle of talking with Dok-go Cheol after everything was over. Choi Tae-geon came running over, shouting.

 

“Ji-hu!!! Are you okay???”

 

“Ah, yes. Fortunately the police officer came quickly, so it was fine.”

 

“Phew… thank goodness. I was really shocked. I thought something terrible had happened…”

 

Choi Tae-geon was trembling, seemingly really shocked.

 

Then Dok-go Cheol said to Choi Tae-geon.

 

“By the way, have you thought about handing this person over to the police? He’s quite something.”

 

“Huh? Th-there’s no point asking me that…”

 

“If he joined the police, he’d be a great help to the country.”

 

“No, even if you say such grand things…”

 

Kim Ji-hu smiled awkwardly watching the two of them.

 

More than that, there was something he was curious about.

 

“But… can we catch Park, the President now?”

 

Dok-go Cheol shrugged his shoulders.

 

“I don’t know about Park, the President. But it’s like cutting off one of his arms. Bond Studio is quite a large operation, and he’s completely lost it.”

 

“That’s… good news, right?”

 

“Whether it’s good news or bad news, we’ll have to wait and see.”

 

“Wh-what do you mean by that?”

 

“Think about it, his money source has been cut off – do you think they’ll just sit still? They’ll try to do something.”

 

“Ah…”

 

“I don’t know what kind of trouble will happen there, but we’ve definitely taken a step forward, so don’t worry.”

 

Kim Ji-hu clicked his tongue.

 

Things had gone well, but the aftertaste wasn’t very good.

 

‘If they’re going to try something… does that mean they’ll try to sell more of those drugs?’

 

Actually, their money sources were predicted to be two things.

 

One was the entertainment business. Like with Mother, giving drugs to people in the entertainment industry and extracting good works from them.

 

And the other was selling drugs again to those people who had taken them.

 

‘Maybe that’s why Mother had no money.’

 

She kept spending money trying to buy drugs somehow, and in the end, her works were taken away and all the money she had earned disappeared.

 

Then Kim Ji-hu suddenly had a flash of insight.

 

“Um… could you check something for me?”

 

“Hmm? What is it?”

 

“Who currently holds the copyright to ‘Millennium Empress.’ And what’s the relationship between the writer Lee Myeong-hee and the people you caught.”

 

If he knew that, he might be able to get clues about both Mother and Park, the President.

 

Dok-go Cheol nodded readily.

 

“If our hero asks, I have to do it.”

 

“He-hero?”

 

“There’ll probably be an article tomorrow. About the actor who caught drug criminals.”

 

“What?”

 

“I leaked it to the reporters earlier.”

 

“…”

 

It was something he hadn’t expected at all.

 

***

 

Fortunately, Jung Tae-hyun’s health showed no problems.

 

It seemed that because the drug was in capsule form, it didn’t dissolve in his mouth.

 

In any case, the chaotic events had ended, and daily life returned.

 

Still, it wasn’t as busy as before.

 

The move was finished now, and the matter of chasing the lighting staff was over too.

 

And.

 

-Hero who caught drug criminals, Kim Ji-hu.

 

-Not just good at acting? Kim Ji-hu’s heroic tale.

 

-National hero Kim Ji-hu. Catches criminals himself.

 

-Bond Studio, was it a den of drug criminals?

 

-Director Go Bin and Bond Studio searched and seized.

 

Somewhat embarrassing articles poured out.

 

As Dok-go Cheol had said, everyone in the world came to know about this incident.

 

But along with that, a subtle anxiety arose.

 

‘Th-this isn’t Park, the President trying to get revenge on me, is it?’

 

When he expressed such worries to Oh Jin-woo over the phone, he let out a small laugh.

 

-He probably could, but it’s actually better for us. Then we’ll be able to learn more about Park, the President.

 

“Th-that’s true, but Ji-hye is here too.”

 

-Actually, Dok-go Cheol put both Ji-hye and you under protection, so if they approach, we’ll be able to catch them right away. Don’t worry and focus all-in on your work activities.

 

He had been suspicious of Dok-go Cheol because he seemed somewhat frivolous, but apparently he handled work better than expected.

 

And thinking about it, his daily routine involved moving around with Choi Tae-geon anyway, and when doing work activities, he’d be surrounded by people, so it didn’t seem like anything major would happen.

 

‘I really should return to daily life now.’

 

Kim Ji-hu smiled slightly.

 

And very good news came from Vivid Studio as well.

 

“We held an audience preview this time, and as expected, it received rave reviews.”

 

There was one week left until the release date of ‘Office Apocalypse.’
