“Looking right… I am plump.”
It was only in the morning that I could see the whole of Camp Lee, which I hadn’t seen before at night when the sun had set.
A site larger than expected from the outline of the river at night, a large building, a flower bed in the garden in front of the window, and even a pond with freshwater fish swimming.
Even if only the subtle mood lights were installed here and there, it was comparable to a 5-star hotel.
By the time I got to the idea that if I actually implemented it, it would be a nighttime identification indicator.
smart.
I heard a knock and answered, but a woman appeared.
It’s not a colleague or a manager, but a slender beauty in her mid-20s that I’ve never seen before.
I wanted someone, but she naturally continued.
“My name is Mia Ritz, who will be in charge of Mr. Lee from today.”
“Are you in charge?”
As soon as I asked, she nodded with a natural face.
“Yes, I plan to manage all of Mr. Lee’s personal schedules, including the condition of this room. All previous materials were taken over by Lily Morgan.”
“ah… … !”
From nob le mt l dot com
Lily Morgan was a familiar name.
The person in charge of the Foreign Relations Bureau, who delivered Robert’s instructions to me, handed down missions, and at the same time raised my request to the top.
A voice with a black accent appeared as a human being.
Even with a change of race.
In the midst of the memories that soon passed or faded, Mia Ritz, who was still standing, held out something.
“This is the status of Mr. Lee’s property, which was cleaned up at the end of yesterday.”
It was the file folder she was wearing around her waist.
“What do you mean by putting your property in order?”
Once I got the file that I was holding out, I asked, and Mia continued to explain as if she had been waiting.
“I cannot use the name Lee Kang-tae due to my confidential status and wanted status, so I have stored all of my assets in dollars and keep them in the account.”
It was something I heard while passing by.
I also said that it was a situation where I couldn’t use my name, so I had to sort it out as soon as possible.
So I said yes, but it seems that it was handled like this.
Suddenly, Mia’s words continued.
“I sold all the houses, villas, vehicles, personal helicopters, firearms, and shooting range memberships that I owned under the name of Lee Kang-tae, and the amount was deposited into the account listed… … .”
As I listened to the continuous explanation, I lowered my gaze to the open file folder.
The contents of the briefing were concisely tabulated, with the totals listed below.
Total holdings are $8.05 million.
It was about 10 billion won in Korean currency.
It must have been a lot of money, but there was no particular reaction.
I just stared.
Considering that the amount of money hanging around my neck is a staggering amount of $1 billion, I don’t know if $8.05 million seemed reasonable.
I haven’t seen it in real life, let alone take out money and spend it.
It just looked like a number stamped on a piece of paper.
If there is anything else that comes to mind, I think I will live comfortably after retirement.
After a short explanation, Mia’s voice was heard.
“I just sent a text to Mr. Lee’s contact number. You can call the number and ask for what you need.”
“ah… yes. All right.”
While answering, I checked my phone, Mia added.
“I can help move the wheelchair. If you want.”
“it’s okay. What is a wheelchair… … .”
Harry had already said he would pull it himself, and even if he wasn’t there, I could have moved it myself.
Most of all, it wasn’t that I couldn’t use my legs at all.
I was just using it because I was told not to overdo it, and I was still standing on my own two feet and looking out the window.
“Then, if you don’t have anything else to ask, I’ll go.”
“Ah, yes. Please go in.”
“Good luck in the future, Mr. Lee. And I wish you a happy new year.”
I realized what I forgot about Mia’s words.
Yesterday was December 31st, and today is none other than January 1st.
“ah… Yes, you too.”
Immediately after sending Mia away with a rough answer.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the doorway.
“Seniors? Who are you just now?”
Harry had entered where Mia had left.
He answered as he glanced back.
“You say you’re in charge of me?”
“Are you in charge? what… Oh, you seem to be managing your personal schedule.”
It was when he nodded as he spoke while gesturing to the file folder in my hand.
Harry’s question added.
“How is it?”
“what?”
“The woman in charge. She was quite a beauty.”
“Is this my style?”
At my words, Harry smiled softly.
“Are you sure you would say no?”
“Well, it’s pretty, but what… The first time I saw it, I had no heart.”
“See you first… Then how about Rachel? She’s different from the woman who just left, but isn’t she pretty enough too?”
“Are you interrogating me?”
When I hit Harry’s question to add, he shook his head.
“I just asked a question when a beauty I had never seen came out of my senior’s room. If it had been Jose, he would have been talking nonstop.”
“I didn’t come out, I stopped by.”
“Whatever… I’ll say it again, but I don’t care if you say that you like men. Because I admire you for your abilities, not for your s*xual orientation… … .”
“No, you bastard. I like girls, girls.”
When we cut off our assumptions and made things right, Harry nodded.
“I’m glad. So, let’s move on as scheduled. I will pull it.”
Harry came in naturally, took the wheelchair first, and sat down with a feeling that he was going to do so.
Taking care of me to the point of extreme is something I’m grateful for anyway, and it’s because the place I’ll be arriving soon is a swimming pool where I can move freely.
It is also a large indoor swimming pool with six 50m long lanes.
After that, I planned to visit the gym, the tactical shooting range, the long range shooting range, and even the dedicated MMA gym with mats.
Of course, I couldn’t use all of them right away, but I was going to use them one after another soon.
After a few days, you’ll be able to get off the wheelchair, and from then on, you’ll be able to run like you did when you were kicked out.
“Then I will see you.”
I moved around in my wheelchair while listening to Harry, and before long I was at the pool.
As expected, both the scale and facilities were great, as was my room and landscaping.
No, it was more than that.
The condition of the tiles and water were also in good condition, but it was because the water that filled the pool was not cold water, but lukewarm water.
“Big… I like to exercise.”
Admiration came out of nowhere.
Next, I was looking forward to going to the gym, shooting range, and gym, as well as motorcycles, bulletproof vehicles, and helicopters in garages and hangars.
What will it be like there, how ready will it be?
It was to the point where I thought it might be a perfect facility.
‘You wrote carelessly… … .’
On the other hand, I also thought of Mia, the person in charge I had just seen.
It wasn’t because it was pretty.
Because her assignment to me couldn’t have been a coincidence.
‘… That person must be ready too.’
Whether it was surveillance, observation, or some other plot, I don’t know, but Mia couldn’t have had a job like a simple secretary.
There was a strong possibility that she had been trained to the level of Rachel, perhaps even more.
Although there was no clear evidence, it was because her tone and behavior were quite restrained and showed care in many ways.
At the end of it, I heard Harry’s voice, which had entered first and splashed.
“Senior, where are you uncomfortable? What do you need?”
“No, that’s fine.”
I cut off Harry’s question at the right time and dived into the pool.
There was no time to think more.
The important thing right now is swimming, and also recovery.
I swam while feeling the taste of the disinfected water.
I felt like I was exercising properly for the first time in a long time.
As if the sleeping lower body was waking up.
“Whoa, this is it… … !”
By the time the feeling of satisfaction comes out of your mouth.
“Oh, you don’t need a kick plate.”
Harry let out a laugh when he said it.
“This bastard… What do you see me as?”
“I thought it wouldn’t be, but everyone asked me to be careful not to overdo it.”
“everyone?”
As he looked to see who did it, names began to come out of Harry’s mouth.
“Yes, Jake, Rachel, Jose, Andrei… ah! So did Myers and Anderson.”
In a word, all the officials said one word to Harry.
“How many parents, this… … .”
While shaking my head, the smart watch on my wrist reacted.
It was a phone call.
It was also a call from the presidential secretary’s office.
“Should this be considered a friend… … .”
While muttering in Korean, Harry understood the words and asked back.
“A friend?”
“… There is such a thing.”
* * *
Washington DC, USA, Harry S. Truman Building.
A new report came to Robert, who had been to the Pentagon.
The content that Mia Ritsu, who was assigned as a dedicated agent, contacted Kang Tae.
After reading through the print, Robert let out a shallow breath.
“There is nothing special… What are you doing now?”
“Lee is swimming.”
“No, Leah Mitze. she is?”
“I haven’t checked. Shall we find out?”
“No, connect the phone.”
Robert pointed out.
It was to read her accent and emotions that were not revealed in the report.
It wasn’t because Mia was simply in charge of Kang Tae.
It was because he was on a mission to protect and observe Kang-tae as a dispatched agent of the United States Secret Service.
Even famous scholars in the United States were involved, and I heard that some research institute was also involved.
It’s not known exactly what they want, but Robert has a rough idea.
To approach Kang-tae, build a bond, and form a relationship.
The end would be children.
In short, heredity.
Guessing this, Robert spoke briefly to Mia, who was on the phone.
“Lea Mitsu? Don’t make Lee feel bad for nothing.”
Then Robert remembered Rachel.
She, who had a deep bond with Kang-tae, suited her better.
Because he was Robert’s trustworthy subordinate, and he had great looks and abilities.
Soon after, Robert added a sentence.
“Don’t forget I’m watching you.”
After finishing the call, he sighed.
I was satisfied with the fact that Camp Lee was created and the treatment changed as Kang-tae’s prestige rose, but it was because all sorts of special things were happening.
All sorts of organizations were entangled in powerful institutions such as the Secret Service.
There must have been some things the president knew and overlooked, or he could have ordered them.
I got it.
Even if it were you, you would want to know whether Kang-tae’s ability is inherited.
But knowing it and experiencing it yourself are two different things.
I didn’t think Kang-tae would like it, and nothing good would happen.
Soon, he shook his head.
‘… I’ll have to protect Lee inside and out.’
