My Hitman System

Chapter 22: Visit

What Jin had feared came true and a few days after the hotel scene he was visited by two men in police uniform.

"Good morning Sir, As you've already been informed we are just questioning everyone who had checked out of the hotel that morning and you need not worry, it's all part of the protocol and we'll leave after asking a few questions," A police officer and his buddy visited Jin at his house.

They had already informed him about the visit. Thanks to this he had already prepared himself to face them. Luckily, it was Sunday and he didn't need to ask the school for another holiday, they may not see it in a good light.

Jin guided them inside and brought water for the two.

"So what about that day do you want to know?" Jin asked. They had already told him about their reason for visit so Jin directly asked.

"We just wanted to know about how you spent your time there at the hotel and if you saw anything suspicious while at it," The man said.

"Suspicious...I don't think so. As for the stay, it was very comfortable and I felt that all my money was spent well there," Jin said.

"Is that so?" The man said and noted something down on his notepad before continuing. "May I also inquire why you visited that hotel all of a sudden?"

'You may not!' Jin wanted to say that but he kept his expression and said with a smile,

"I've been saving money for a while to visit a good hotel. It had always been a dream for me and so I finally visited it when I had collected enough money," A reminiscing expression was plastered on Jin's face as though he was still thinking about that day.

The man noted it and asked another question, "Why did you only stay for a day?"

"Because I only had that much money to spare," Jin shrugged.

"I see..." The man noted it down and after a couple more questions about other people who he had seen in the hotel that day he finally finished the questioning.

With a professional smile on his face stood up and shook hands with Jin "That's it, Mr. Jin. Thank you for cooperating with us,"

"Alright, glad to be of some help to you," Jin saw them off.

Phew

He sighed in relief when the cops were finally out of his house. 'If only he could have a fake ID...' Jin thought. If he had a fake ID then he would have easily checked in that hotel with that identity. No one would have come knocking on his door in that case...

Jin pondered over it for a while and in frustration he just ended up searching 'how to get hands on a fake ID' on Google. To his utter surprise, several answers appeared when he opened a forum.

'Are people on the internet so helpful?' Jin thought. This was his first time inquiring about something illegal like this on the internet.

'Blackmarket? I don't know where that is and it requires money...'

'Dark web? Mhmm sounds better...oh it requires lots of money...I'll pass...'

Jin went through all of them and most of them required him to pay a large amount of money to someone.

"I can only put it aside for now...maybe in the future I might get enough money," Jin said. Just like in the previous mission where he was able to acquire some money out of the old man's wallet.

"I wonder what the next mission would be..." Jin thought and sat down on the chair as he wondered "What should I do now..."

Jin reached his right hand towards his pocket and took out his wallet. 'Well...should I watch a movie?' Earlier a thought like this would have never entered Jin's mind but as his living situation became better his thinking process also evolved.

'In another week it's the payday once again...' A thought entered Jin's mind as if trying to sway the little resistance he had left...and it succeeded.

Jin changed into a simple navy blue shirt and paired it with beige coloured trousers. Now that his economic conditions were much better Jin no longer wore clothes that were torn here and there.

He walked to the bus stand to take a bus.

"Hopefully, there would be good films to watch there..." It had been a long while since Jin had watched a film. The last one he had watched was on his old television set a few months back.

When he went back after a week to take the television with him to the new rented place he found his house's lock to be broken and his television was no longer there...

In the end, he could only shake his head in annoyance and leave the place. He did not want to return to that rotten place ever again.

The bus soon arrived and Jin entered the bus. His destination was the Bluebird Theatre around two kilometres from his place.
