Before Lay answers, suddenly bells on the door ring. Tring~! Someone is entering the café.
Sok-ji reflexively turned his head and saw 3 people wearing neat suits entering the café. 1 man and 2 women.
"That's the answer," said Lay.
The 3 people approached them, Lay moved his seat next to Sok-ji and the three of them sat in front of the two of them.
"Who are you?" Sok-ji asked.
He immediately asked that question because he thought it was a bit suspicious that they suddenly appeared, and even Lay felt uncomfortable and intimidated by them.
The three of them took out their identification and placed them on the table.
Sok-ji read their identification and was surprised, he immediately looked at Lay who was beside him. "Hyung, what's happening now?"
"A few days ago someone contacted me, they said they asked to meet you and me, and at that time they said they were from NIS. And when I asked for an explanation, he said that…"
"We know that JL Enterprise sent industrial spies to BLK Company and one of its subsidiaries, " said someone named Jong-gi.
"And that's why we wanted to meet," said Lay.
"Wait a second. Industrial spies, I know that job exists, but does the NIS have to step in and investigate industrial spies? Is that common?"
"We haven't finished explaining what happened here, so let us speak. We also know that the reason they are investigating BLK Company is not just about the industry, but the reason goes back 5 years." said one woman named Mido.
"And we also understand the reason why you continue to try to investigate it," continued Tami while she stared at Lay so they would know, they were talking to Lay, not Sok-ji.
Lay just lowered his head while continuing to hold back his anger or stop them from talking about things that Lay and Sunny were afraid of. They don't know yet whether they will release this information or not.
"And..." said Jong-gi while looking at Lay too. "We also know that you know something about Han Suk-jin."
Lay took a deep breath. Hope is gone. The two of them accidentally discovered this and why suddenly, a group of people from the NIS appeared and asked about this.
"You know that I accidentally found out, right? And I don't think what we know is harm national security."
"No, it's not, but you shouldn't cover it up, they might cut off family ties but have you ever asked him? About his father I mean," Tami answered.
"Hey, hey, it's not our job to announce who the child is or who the father is," said Lay.
"Okay, stop..." said Sok-ji, trying to stop this argument. "I'm starting to understand what happened, but if the two of them are carrying out an investigation or if Sunny knows something, you should go to her, not us, especially me. What does their investigation have to do with me? Only she knows her reasons for doing this."
"Sok-ji, calm down," Lay grabbed his shoulder as if telling him to be quiet and not answer.
"Hyung," Sok-ji couldn't accept what Lay was doing.
"Don't involve Sok-ji in this, you know she won't like it. I only found out about that person because she asked me to, it's not like we find that for a reason, it's accidentally happened, didn't you already meet her 6 months ago?"
"Do you think I would involve him if she accepted my request?"
"She didn't accept your request?" Sok-ji asked.
"I think Director Lay knows the reason better, and so do you," said Jong-gi.
"Sunny doesn't want to cooperate with them and she also refuses to go home," Lay answered.
"NIS met Sunny in Los Angeles?"
"You remember that Keil was arrested for breaking in and almost killing Sunny, right? The CIA asked for Keil, they took Keil to L.A."
"She doesn't want to?"
Jong-gi nods. That's how it happened that She didn't heed NIS' request at that time.
"Kim Sok-ji, you know that there is one case that Sunny never stops investigating?" Jong-gi asked.
"Yes, the Park Suwon case I still don't understand where the investigation is going, what is the connection between the underage prostitution case and the BLK electronics company?" said Sok-ji.
"Because the money used for the Park Suwon case was their money too," answered Lay.
"Hyung! How do you know this, what is this really about? Can you guys be honest with me?"
"There are two things you need to know for now," said Jong-gi.
"BLK Company is a member of the elite club created by Park Suwon," said Mido.
"And BLK Company President Director, Han Suk-jin is the father of Han Jae-young, a member of the Joint Special Team who is also your friend," Tami continued.
Jong-gi handed over a brown folder with a confidential stamp on it. A stamp that means confidential information and if they read what's in, they are not allowed to talk about it.
Sok-ji threw his body back, originally he was sitting upright, but now he threw himself onto the back of the chair. He couldn't bear to hear what Jong-gi and the others were saying.
It turns out that Jae-young's father was the person who caused the incident 5 years ago which made some people suffer from that situation.
Sunny, Min-tae dan Tae-guk.
"Are you sure about this?" Sok-ji asked again.
"As a member of the National Intelligence I can confirm that the information is valid," answered Jong-gi.
"Then what do you need me for?" Sok-ji asked matter-of-factly.
"We need you to bring Sunny Elise Kang back home from Los Angeles, the NIS will re-open the case, and we need everyone to join the investigation."
"Wait, I thought you guys already asked for this."
"Oh yes, that's right, I've talked to her and asked her to give me confirmation when she'll return to Seoul, but she refused. She said to take the case to the Special Team because she didn't want to get involved."
"You heard the answer, what do you need me for? Besides, she has problems with her father's will and she can't just leave Los Angeles."
"That's right, Sunny can't leave the company, not before 5 years, her father has already predicted her moves, and she has to find a way to investigate the case without leaving the company."
"We already know that we also understand, therefore we ask you to take her home."
"Are you guys crazy? You already met her, and she said no, you expect if I go there you will get a different answer?"
Mido took out another brown folder this time it had military markings on the front. "We know that you have received special training when you are serving your time."
"How the hell you... Fuck... "
"You are the perfect person to bring her home. No one that she believes besides you," said Jong-gi.
"If she wants to go with me. How about the other team?"
"Leave it to me, you just do your job, bring her here."
"Don't waste your training, Sok-ji-ssi," ucap Tami.
"You want to show off that there's nothing you don't know? Fine, I will go see her."
"I will take care of your departure. Are we done now?" said Lay.
"Yeah we're done, thanks for the help."
Lay looked down, while Sok-ji crumpled the file that NIS had given him earlier. That should be a secret between the coach and him.
"The Special Team meeting is in 3 days, what should I do hyung?" Sok-ji asked.
"You want to meet her?" Lay asked.
Sok-ji stood up from his chair and tore all the paper in front of him. "I would do anything to meet her, but if I met her like this, I don't know what kind of play I would have to put on her."
"Hey, in the past 12 years I've known her, you're the only one who can melt her heart. If you ask her, she will say yes."
"You don't have to say that. But she said she didn't want me to get hurt. If she knows I come there to pick her up, she maybe will freak out,"
"Then calm down, everyone including me will do anything for her, so calm down."
"So you think I'd better go?"
Lay patted Sok-ji's shoulder. "Go, it's better if you go there."
Sok-ji leaves the cafe and drives his car alone. Seo-won approaches but it looks like the situation is not okay. Many things seem to be happening.
"Sir, do you think he will go?" asked Seo-won.
"Sok-ji? Yes, he'll go there and hug Sunny, but the problem is. The situation that made him go there is not for a holiday. This made to happen, we can't hold this for any longer."
"I thought you had let everything about her," said Sun-ki from behind the two of them.
"Ahjussi, you are someone who has been with me for a long time, you must also know that I am finished with her."
"Yes, I know. I like Min-young, I like her too, but choose your stopping place. Don't make other people misunderstand or get hurt."
"I know."
"And also, you need to start choosing the word to explain what happened 5 years ago, in case she remembers."
"Aargh, I almost forget about that."
"What is the meaning of what you two are talking about?" Seo-won asked.
"You don't need to know. Come on, let's go back."
