Chapter 212
That night the moon was completely hidden by the cloud. In this dark world without light from the night sky, there was a high-rise building illuminated brilliantly by artificial light. For a normal company, at this time most of the employees would be home already and there would be few lighting, but it was only this building that was leaking out light from all of its floors.
The entrance of that high-rise building and the outer wall near the highest floor were drawn with the company name and emblem. The company name was?Gamma Pharmaceutical?.
A car's headlight was illuminating the back road of that?Gamma Pharmaceutical?. The car was stopped once by the guard in front of the gate of iron bars. The man behind the car's steering wheel showed his face to that guard and also his identification card.
It seemed that the guard knew the face of the driver. The guard showed a wry smile while giving words of appreciation?Must be hard work to come at this kind of time even though you aren't even a researcher?. He then took the identification card to the guard room and used a card reader to read the card to open the gate.
The man behind the driving seat shrugged his shoulders and said?It's the superior's command. I cannot go against it?while receiving back his identification card. At that time, the guard saw the person sitting at the backseat and he raised his eyebrows questioningly.
When the driver told the guard?This person is a genius doctor even if she look like this. It seems she will be our company's hidden ace you know?, it seemed the person in the backseat noticed that they were talking about her. The girl wearing lab coat with her hair tied into side-tail then faced toward the guard and smiled friendlily.
Being smiled at by an amiable beautiful girl, the middle-aged guard slackened down and he smiled broadly. And then he said?Even though you are still young, you mustn't force yourself too hard to work until this kind of time you know?while drawing back.
The car then passed through the gate and kept running until its figure vanished into a rear entrance for the underground parking area.
The car parked on a corner of the underground parking area before the driver and girl in lab coat??Emily got down.
?Is this place really where the mastermind is staying? This is a large company that can be counted in one hand even at Britain.?
?So you doesn't believe it Miss? I said already that I am the direct subordinate of this place's president??Kaysis Wentworks.?
?Shut up. I won't talk to you.?
?……Ou.?
The man who received that really piercing reply got sullen. Even so he obediently backed down. He, the man who fainted after eating Kousuke's secret technique??Woody urged Emily to move with a pouting face.
Following Woody's guidance, they rode an exclusive elevator that would only move using employee ID card. This high-rise building had 66 floors in total with a height that surpassed 200 meters. They could see the night view of the city from the high-speed elevator that was attached on the outside. The higher the elevator got, the wider the view that could be seen.
?It's beautiful……?
?Yeah, this scenery???
?I'm not talking to you.?
?……Got it.?
Woody's feeling was hurt from that second piercing reply. A beautiful girl with sparkling eyes clinging at the scenery outside, and a tough man exposing pouting face beside her. The scene was really surreal.
Before long, *ting* along with such sound, the elevator's floor display showed they were at the highest floor. Emily who came back to her senses from that sound turned around and followed behind Woody who had exited the elevator first. They passed over several corners and rooms, through several electronic locks, and in the end reached a heavy door that was engraved with the company's emblem.
Woody walked toward the display installed beside the two-leaf door and pressed a button.
?Boss, this is Woody. Just as my message, I arrived just now. I'm bringing Doctor Grant.?
?Finally. I'm opening the door now.?
The door of the president's office was constructed so it could only be opened from inside. Because of that, Woody and Emily waited for the room's owner Kaysis to open the door.
*pushu* With the sound of air spurting out, the two-leaf door opened. The two of them entered with Woody in the lead. The door immediately closed behind them. Emily looked at that across her shoulder and inside her heart she evaluated that the enemy was really cautious.
When her gaze returned to the front, she saw a man at his early thirty sitting deeply on a luxurious chair. He was a slender and blond man. His narrow eyes that looked like fox and his loose and slovenly smile gave a frivolous impression that didn't suit a president of a large company.
But, the moment that man saw the figure of Emily behind Woody, Emily saw inside the man's slightly opened eyes and unconsciously felt gooseflesh in her spine.
She thought that this man was like a snake. His gaze was that of a snake catching sight of a mouse that would be the prey. She must not be deceived by this man's external frivolous impression. Cunning and malice were compressed inside this man. Yes, detestable aura that made her unconditionally believed that was expressed in this man's eyes.
Emily unconsciously stopped walking all of a sudden. Seeing that caused Kaysis's smile to deepen further. His evil smile that gave no hint of humanity made Emily to spontaneously gulp loudly. Even Woody that was slightly in front of her also gulped loudly like her. Surely he understood just how evil that smile was.
?Hey, Emily-chan. Nice of you to come. My company welcomes you with open arms.?
Kaysis stood up and detoured around his large desk while spreading his hands open in a welcoming gesture. Emily almost shrank back from the approaching mass of malice, however, she suddenly noticed what she was about to do and she gritted her teeth.
And then, she returned her drawing back foot to its former spot and glared back threateningly with piercing cat-eyes.
Kaysis displayed emotion of surprise for a moment, but he soon started to stare with a gaze of unconcealed sadism.
?How nice, that arouse me. A girl making that kind of eye is just my favorite. How about it Emily-chan? Won't you become mine instead of just being a researcher in my company? You will be able to obtain anything you wish by doing that you know??
?And, you will torment me who naturally is going to refuse, and then want to make me say that with my own mouth isn't that right? Anyway, go through plastic surgery first. The vulgarity of your character is coming out on your face you know??
Even while Emily was still shaking a bit, but she threw back a scathing reply boldly. Woody looked back to her with a slightly shocked expression. Kaysis's expression was increasingly changing as though there was a delicious fruit put in front of him.
?That's a hurtful way of speaking. But, it arouses me instead. Just how long you can continue with that kind of attitude, aa, I'm really looking forward to it more and more.?
?Your disgusting behavior doesn't matter. Rather than that, are you Odin??
While nodding, Kaysis approached until he was in short distance from Emily who was asking that to him with undisguised revulsion.
?Indeed, that's correct. I am Odin. Well, that name is just for a jest though. My real name is Kaysis Wentworks.?
?You were……the one that stole?Berserk?? The one that released the infected person in the middle of city??
Kaysis's fingertip stroked Emily's cheek. Even while feeling nausea from that touch, Emily asked for confirmation to him. She wanted to confirm, 'are you the main culprit of everything?', like that.
?You can say that, but you can also say that it's not so.?
?What do you mean? Answer me!?
?Fufu, you are really strong-willed. Just like a cute cat.?
Kaysis dodged Emily's questioning noncommittally. His snake-like eyes shined while his hand touched Emily's slender neck. Of course, just with that it would be impossible to choke the neck and kill a person. But, most likely he just wanted to see Emily's suffering face for fun.
Emily's face slightly grimaced when that hand jerked with strength. Kaysis's expression was increasingly filled with joy by that but……
?……What are you doing??
?I cannot just stay quiet watching more than this. Can I ask you to take off that hand from the miss??
The one that grasped Kaysis's hand and forcefully jerked it away from Emily's neck was the man at her side??Woody. Kaysis sent him a dangerous gaze. Kaysis's eyes were tinged with dangerous light from how his subordinate showed an unforeseen rebellious attitude, and from how he called Emily as?miss?.
?I wonder if you understand just who are you opening your mouth to. Or else, don't tell me you are cajoled by this child? No matter how unlikely I think that is.?
?No way, such thing is unimaginable to happen between me and miss. Besides, I'm doing this with full preparedness for everything.?
Kaysis shook off Woody's arm roughly, then he took out a handgun offhandedly from his breast pocket and pointed it at Woody. At the same time, he snapped his finger *pachin* and armed men appeared from hidden doors set up everywhere inside the room. They pointed their gun muzzle toward Woody.
However, Woody who knew about the existence of the guards standing by inside the room naturally wasn't perturbed.
?Full preparedness? I really don't get you. Just what in the world happened??
?Nothing special. If I'm forced to say, then it's because I found a place with better employment term than here I guess. Any humble salary man will change their job to a place with better condition right??
?Hou. I see, so you are cajoled by the security bureau. Just how much you can receive from them? Aa, just to be clear, I'm not planning to ask you to come back by offering you more than their offer. Your fate is decided already here.?
?Even if you told me to come back, I absolutely won't. After all, it's remuneration that you cannot possibly prepare.?
?……It's that much money? Answer, how much that you got??
So much remuneration to the degree that a president of a large company that was in the top five of Britain couldn't match it. Kaysis's expression was slightly colored with interest when he was told something like that. He was wondering, just what kind of world the security bureau used to steal his subordinate.
Seeing Kaysis like that, the corner of Woody's lips rose up in a wide grin. And then with a boastful, elated, and joyful expression that couldn't be suppressed!!, he spoke the detail of the remuneration he obtained.
?Kukuh, listen and be astonished! My reward iiis, the finest quality of salmon sandwich, FOR A YEARRRR-!?
?……………………………………………………hm??
Kaysis-san was confused. His heinous air was unconsciously scattered apart and he tilted his head plainly thinking?Am I mishearing??. The other guards were also the same like that.
Amidst such confusion, Emily who knew about the circumstance made a complicated expression as expected. And then, for the second time she asked the same question like before in the café.
?Hey, Kousuke. Why is it salmon sandwich? Do you like it that much??
Hearing Emily calling a name of a person he had never heard before, Kaysis sent a suspicious gaze at her.
But, at the next moment, he turned around in shock.
?Aa, yeah. Honestly, even I myself am thinking, perhaps this hypnotist is wrong.?
The guards also turned around.
Over there, before anyone knew it, a young man in black clothes was sitting on the president chair while scratching on his cheek with a wry smile.
AN: Thank you very much for reading this every time.
Thank you very much too for the thoughts, opinions, and reports about misspelling and omitted words.
About the salmon sandwich pressuring of this chapter.
If I have to say why, that's because the author is getting fixated with it.
Salmon sandwich that is unexpectedly off-the-shelf.
If I made a handmade one, it was doubtful the chapter posting would make it in time……
I'm sorry.
The next update is planned at 6 P.M Saturday too.
