In the real world, Roc city, inside the office of the security manager of Nancheng Department Store.
“Three million.” The security manager sat in his office chair. He leaned back and tapped his fat fingers on the desk as he lazily uttered the number.
“3 million!? Why don’t you go rob a bank!?” A young man with a feminine appearance and small eyes was sitting opposite. Hearing the quotation from the security manager, he stood up suddenly, banged his hands on the table, and retorted.
“3 million. No haggling.” The Security Manager looked indifferent to the situation and his voice was light as a feather, giving people a very calm feeling.
“It’s just a recording. How could it be worth such a price!” The young man’s expression became unsightly, and he yelled angrily in Chinese with a Korean accent.
His name was Jin Junmin and on the surface, his identity was of an executive of a certain group from Korea. In fact, he was a spy who infiltrated into Cathay to steal all kinds of important information.
This time, he received an urgent order requesting him to find out the actual identity of [Princess] as soon as possible.
Reacting to the latest piece of intel, Jin Junmin arrived at the Nancheng Department Store where Yaeger first bought the terminal. He was prepared to bribe the security manager to get the surveillance images of that time.
He never expected that this guy would unexpectedly dare to make such an enormous demand!
“3 million. Take it or leave it.” The corner of the security manager’s mouth curled upward slightly and his eyes flashed with mockery.
《Sacred Demon World》 had been hyped by the big five nations and had long attracted the attention of other countries. Even the public felt something was amiss.
If it’s just a game, was it that necessary to promote and hype it so aggressively?
The Security Manager had better political acumen than the average person, so he couldn’t help but wonder if some shady business was going on.
As the saying goes, every action in the world was only for money and self-interest.
Without some highly rewarding benefits in return, why would the governments of the big five nations go to such lengths to promote a game?
Like hell anyone would believe that!
Sure enough, after the game officials announced the information about the closed beta players, the relevant government departments arrived at his door, making the Security Manager even more convinced that this game was not as simple as it looked!
Now that he had in his hand a sliver of information about one of the closed beta players in his hands, it would be weird if he didn’t sell it at a high price.
Jin Junmin clenched his fists, and the corners of his eyes twitched. If this was not the land of China, he would have tied up this damn fatty and beat him up fiercely, forcing him over to hand over the data.
However, even if he had hundreds of guts, he still dared not raise any trouble in Cathay.
The relationship between the two countries had become very rigid because of stupid incidents. If something happened here, even the United States could not save him!
“2.5 million.” Breathing out a long breath, Jin Junmin calmed himself down and haggled.
“3 million, not a penny less.” The safety manager crossed his legs, put his hands on the armrests of the chair, raised his head and looked at Jin Junmin.
“……”
After hesitating for about 10 seconds, Jin Junmin knew that this guy was determined to fleece him, so he could only helplessly agree.
This mission was very important and there could be no slip-ups nor hiccups.
Staying here for too long made it easy to be targeted by the relevant counter-intelligence departments.
Jin Junmin didn’t want to be imprisoned in a place where he couldn’t get the world’s most delicious food-kimchi!
“Pay the money with one hand and take the goods with the other.” Seeing the other side nod, the manager of the security department felt happy in his heart. This money is fu̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g easy to earn!
Jin Junmin transferred 3 million into the security manager’s account and received a gold-colored USB flash drive in return.
He plugged it into the laptop he carried with him. When he clicked on the image, he immediately exploded with anger.
“Fatso, you fooled me!”
It was a blurred image, and only the outline of a person could be barely seen.
“I didn’t fool you. This is the surveillance image you want. There is only one copy in the world. If you don’t want it, just return it to me and I will also return the money to you immediately.”
The security manager had a disapproving look.
Observing the other party’s response, Jin Junmin raised his eyebrows and then watched the entire video again. The time was correct and the layout of the mall was similar. The video should have been genuine.
Then he thought of something and his eyes were full of contempt when he glared again at the security manager: What a pest!
“Is there really only one copy of the recording?” Jin Junmin didn’t believe it.
“If you don’t believe me, you can check my computer. Because of the formatting, all the original information is gone.”
The security manager turned the computer monitor to him and then gave him the mouse.
As an excellent spy, Jin Junmin was naturally very familiar with surveillance systems. After some fiddling, he found out that the computer had experienced abnormal conditions. The hard disk had been repeatedly formatted, and it was filled with countless junk files.
“Now do you believe me?” The safety manager questioned once more.
“No problem, thanks for cooperating.” Jin Junmin still had some doubts in his heart, but he still smiled politely to the security manager.
“Thanks for…” The security manager didn’t finish speaking.
Jin Junmin’s face was black, and he said coldly: “Fatso, remember to say hi to your mommy!”
“You m̲o̲t̲h̲e̲r̲f̲u̲c̲k̲e̲r̲, what did you just say?”
After hearing an offensive insult to his mother for no reason, the security manager jumped up in anger. However, before he could do anything, he suddenly felt a knife cut the fat on his face. Then he saw Jin Junmin’s shoes less than 5 cm away from his face.
Immediately his facial expression changed, and his forehead was sweating.
“Humph!” Jin Junmin snorted coldly and retracted his feet lightly. He then turned around and left, showing his tall back.
The security manager’s face was pale, but it didn’t take long for him to recover and immediately cursed: “M̲o̲t̲h̲e̲r̲f̲u̲c̲k̲e̲r̲, don’t run away if you are a man!”
Jin Junmin had already taken the elevator downstairs and did not hear his cursing at all.
