He parked his car at least two subway stations away from the eting place, leaving his cell phone but taking both burner phones. He always had to be careful on his way to et Sarang. Once he left the parking lot, he teleported across so buildings.
He moved quickly because there were people on the streets and avoided areas with CCTV caras, going from the top of one building to another.
When the distance between buildings was short, he just jumped across them, and when the distance was long, he teleported. He got to the eting place in five minutes.
This ti, Sarang wanted to et him at a famous at franchise restaurant. She was standing at the entrance and waved at him.
"Big brother!"
"Let’s go in."
Junhyuk didn’t speak much and walked inside the at specialty restaurant and took a seat. Sarang had a bright smile across her face and ordered her food.
"Loins for five people, please."
"Is anyone else coming?"
"No, just the two of us."
Junhyuk laughed and nodded.
"That’s all. We’ll have Sprites for drinks."
"OK."
The waitress went away, and Junhyuk handed her the burner phone.
"What is this?"
"A burner phone. There is a number in it."
Sarang looked at it and smiled.
"Is it your number?"
"Right. Don’t use it for anything other than to call , and use that phone when you call."
"This is like a couple’s phone."
He shook his head and changed the topic, "Did you hear about the survivors?"
"It’s all over the news. Yes, I heard about it."
"They are getting assassinated," he continued.
"What?"
"I t one of them, but he was killed."
"Really?"
"Yes. The others will probably be or have already been killed as well. Soon, it will be on the news."
Sarang put her burner phone in her bag and whispered, "Is it the sa people as before?"
"I’m sure."
The waitress brought out the al’s side dishes and set the table. Junhyuk stopped talking for a mont but continued when she left.
"And I saw a novice today."
"A novice? You t one before. Is it the sa person?"
’No. This person has a different power. He controls minds."
"A ntal subjugation power?"
Junhyuk nodded and elaborated, "He put nine researchers to sleep and used one to get what he wanted. He made him pick up a syringe and inject it, and then he also put that person to sleep."
"He sounds dangerous."
Junhyuk nodded.
"Right, very dangerous."
Even Junhyuk found him dangerous. What if he ordered him to commit suicide?
"Don’t look him in the eyes. He lifted the visor of his motorcycle helt, so he must control others with his eyes."
"But we don’t know his face."
Junhyuk agreed.
"Just be extra careful."
Sarang nodded.
"OK."
"One more thing." Junhyuk expounded on his encounter with Jisuk Dong.
Sarang heard everything and asked, "Then, minions can recognize us?"
"Possibly."
The difference between minions and novices wasn’t just power. The size of their souls were different. Maybe the survivors could see the size of an individual’s soul.
Sarang had a lot to think about, and the waitress ca back and started roasting the at. It was a classy restaurant, so the waitress roasted the loins for them.
They couldn’t keep talking, so they just focused on eating. Junhyuk was astonished by Sarang’s appetite. She was eating quite a bit.
"Did you skip any als?"
"I get hungry," she said and then whispered, "I use up my energy quite often."
She must’ve been training to increase her powers, and she had been practicing and exercising her body. She had to be hungry.
Junhyuk laughed and rolled up his sleeves.
"We’d like to order five more portions."
He was quite muscular now, and he ate a lot more. Ordinarily, he ate a high-calorie diet. He was eating at now, so he wanted more.
Sarang smiled, and the waitress was surprised by their appetites. They finished their al, and Junhyuk looked at the receipt and clicked his tongue. They ate fifteen portions, which were normally for fifteen people, and it ca out to $600.
He laughed and looked at her. She was drinking coffee for dessert, and Junhyuk said, "If sothing happens, I’ll call you."
"Don’t worry."
He caressed her head.
"Practice hard."
Junhyuk left, and Sarang touched her head and smiled.
"Practice hard."
She walked out energetically pumping her fists.

In the morning, Junhyuk reported to work at the W.A.N.C.S. lab. He thought he would never go back there, but he was back just as Iltae had expected. He went to Iltae’s office, and Iltae gave him an ID card.
"While you work here, use this."
"Thank you."
Junhyuk put it on, and Iltae said, "We found out who the intruders were."
"You found Jisuk’s murder suspect?"
Iltae shook his head.
"We don’t know who he is, but we’ve identified those two people you captured."
"Where did they co from?"
"There is a rcenary group in Germany, the Schterron rcenary Company. They are from there."
"How did you find out?"
"Curious?" Iltae asked secretively, and Junhyuk shook his head. Iltae seed to be joking, but he didn’t want to nod.
Junhyuk wanted to be inside the enemy territory, but he didn’t want to fall for any traps.
"We should put pressure on Schterron to find out what these two were looking for," Iltae said calmly.
"Is that possible?"
They were a rcenary company and they would protect their clients, but Iltae laughed at his question.
"You must not know it yet, but we have power beyond your imagination."
W.A.N.C.S. was a global cooperative, so it had to have so influence.
"We will investigate Schterron about what they were up to and find out if those two will take responsibility for Jisuk Dong’s murder," Iltae said smiling.
Junhyuk thought for a mont and asked, "So, does the W.A.N.C.S. lab oversees every abnormal narcolepsy patient who has woken up?"
"That’s our job."
"What about the ones in other countries?"
Iltae nodded, and Junhyuk asked, "Then, are the other survivors also dead?"
Iltae leaned back on the sofa and asked, "How did you know?"
"The patients who woke up must know sothing important. If not, there would be no reason to kill them."
"Hm!" Iltae nodded and spoke as if spitting out the words, "The other survivors are also dead. Whoever it is doesn’t understand what danger the human race is facing."
Junhyuk saw another side of Iltae. Maybe he beca a researcher to save the human race.
Iltae shook his head.
"I must give you your assignnts."
"I could do anything."
"Just continue what you did yesterday."
Junhyuk tilted his head. What did he do yesterday?
"Oversee the capsules."
"Is that all?"
"You don’t have enough on your resu to do anything here. I can’t use you as a guard, and you are a model."
He didn’t particularly enjoy overseeing the capsules, but he didn’t speak out, nodding instead.
"I understand. Shall I go to the second floor?"
"Yes, they will explain more once you get there."
"OK, I’ll go now."
Junhyuk got up, and Iltae smiled and said, "If I get sothing from Schterron, I’ll inform you."
Junhyuk left the office for his first day of work at the W.A.N.C.S. lab. He went to the second floor to et the researchers. There were two of them, and they had already t Junhyuk the day before. One of them got up and walked over to him.
"I heard you’ll be coming here."
"We’ll be working together. Nice to et you. I’m Junhyuk."
"Nice to et you. I’m Daejoon Gil."
Daejoon offered him a seat and a cup of coffee.
"You’ll oversee a hundred capsules. Finish your coffee, and we’ll get out there, and I’ll explain so more of the process."
He already knew so, but Daejoon would go more in-depth. Junhyuk wouldn’t refuse the help, so he drank his coffee and conversed so more. Afterward, he left to see the capsules he would oversee.
Daejoon explained that he had to make reports when there were any changes to the capsules and other things to pay attention to. In any event, Junhyuk would use the central computer to oversee the capsules, and he wouldn’t be in the capsules’ rooms. He only had to do what the central computer couldn’t. It seed like an easy job, and Daejoon agreed with that assessnt.
"Before noon, you should check the capsules, and then do it again after lunch. You will have lots of ti, so just do what you want in between."
Junhyuk pointed to his ID card.
"Can I get into the second floor?"
"Yes. Starting with the third floor, you’ll need different clearance."
Junhyuk didn’t think Iltae just wanted him to work on the capsules. He didn’t know Iltae’s true intentions, so he would simply watch so more. He would be mindful of things and stay alive in that place, but he needed cash just in case sothing happened.
Nothing happened on the first day. When he got ho, he trained so and went to bed.
Sothing serious happened in the morning of the second day. Junhyuk noticed strange activity in the W.A.N.C.S. lab and went to the second floor. Daejoon was waiting for him there.
"Iltae is looking for you."
"Iltae?"
Daejoon nodded, but he didn’t know why. Junhyuk went to Iltae’s office. He was looking at the computer. He offered Junhyuk a seat and sat down of the sofa.
"There is a problem," Iltae said, frowning. "Both of our suspects were killed yesterday."
They were tied up underground! How did they die? That place is well guarded.
"Who killed them?"
"One of our guards."
"What?"
Iltae was still frowning.
"But the guard doesn’t rember anything."
Suddenly, Junhyuk thought of sothing.
"Mind Control."
