{ Dana 1 }

“Yes. That’s right. I’ve actually seen that S-class once before. It was during training. At one point, a sense of crisis suddenly surged… It was strange. It’s a place where you shouldn’t have such a sense of crisis, right? But my sense exclaimed. “It was dangerous. I knew then. Bruce was looking around in secret.”

“Did he feel dangerous?”

Dana answered Yang Gwang’s words.

“Well. It was a dangerous situation if someone tried to harm him. For him and for me. Because I had to protect him.”

People on the left nod their heads.

“A certain superman suddenly ran wild. It was like having a seizure. Then he ran towards Bruce. And… he was immediately overpowered. My head is gone. Oh, I’d rather say he’s dead rather than overpowered.”

“Is that what you made… that S-class escort?”

“Yes. He was. Overwhelmingly strong. But at that time, it didn’t matter when I saw that scene. No, I thought it was the most reasonable thing to do. Because the superman who ran wild like that unbridled dog was bad. How dare you reveal this.”

Her words seem to know the level of brainwashing.

“There was a bit of talk… Anyway, I met Bruce the day he called me. Even before I met him, I had a strong feeling… but when I met him in person, I felt like I was losing my mind at first. “I had a crush on him unconditionally. Even though it was the first time I saw him from such a close distance, it didn’t feel like that at all. It was like someone I’d known for a very long time.

“What do you think of?”

When Aiden, who was listening, asked with a serious expression, Dana answered as if he was right.

“The owner.”

“…”

“This moment alone with him, the interest he showed me, the way he touched me all made me feel good. It was like his pet dog. But… then his hazy head suddenly turned cold. When he knew what he was, when he felt what he wanted, the unconditional love for him was gone.”

Yuhanwol stared at Dana’s face as she spoke.

A story of her past that she recites very briefly.

What a painful memory was it that could break such a powerful brainwashing?

It was as if it was the antipathy underlying her identity.

“My instinctive refusal… I could barely stand it. It made my reason clearer.”

“Why?”

“If it wasn’t for it, it would have been scrapped right away.”

“…”

“When Bruce wanted me, I felt them standing outside the door. At the time, I didn’t know if I had been brainwashed or what. I just knew instinctively. If I refused his touch here and now, I’d die instantly. like a superman.”

“By the way…”

Aiden spoke up.

It’s a cautious thing to ask.

But I remember the cool words she said earlier.

[it’s okay. It wasn’t that I was… ]

What does that mean?

“I heard that the nuance that Miss Dana mentioned earlier… things didn’t go his way?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Fortunately, he wasn’t robbed. But… it didn’t mean it didn’t go his way.”

What happened suddenly in such a situation?

A word that is not readily understandable.

Her words answered the question of the left crowd.

“At that time, something very important happened. So all his interest and attention was turned to him in an instant.

“What was… so important?”

“You know it, because it was the most shocking thing I’ve done lately.”

“…!”

As if feeling something, the members of the left looked at each other’s faces.

Dana’s mouth opened.

“The Assassination of the President of the United States.”

“Then… too?”

“Yes. Bruce Hendrick. That’s what he ordered.”

The rest of the words came out of Dana’s mouth.

“In the end, everything went his way. The death of the President of the United States. Even I could have avoided that moment.”

after a moment of silence.

Aiden’s voice came out.

“Our guess was right.”

I guessed it, but I confirmed it to be true.

It was an important income.

This made the situation clearer.

“Thanks for the explanation. It was very helpful.”

“That’s good.”

Aiden asked Dana, who was smiling.

“If it’s okay with you, can you explain the situation in a little more detail then?”

“Just in time, the escort outside sent a message to the inside. I have something to report to you. Bruce was offended. He said he didn’t hear the instructions not to disturb. But the escort said.”

“what?”

“Target removed – said.”

“Liam?”

“Yeah. I didn’t know who the target was at the time, but I saw the news later and found out right away. That was the President of the United States.”

Taking a deep breath, she continued.

“The moment the escort reported it, I felt a sense of urgency. Bruce’s reaction was completely different. He laughed out loud and asked the escort to come in. It was a joy… what sort of exhilaration was it? I was told to step back. So I went back to my training schedule as if nothing had happened. And I went on as usual without any special expression, but on the inside it was completely different. I didn’t know when he was going to call me again. .”

Her feelings at the time seemed to be understandable.

“At the same time, the instructions to destroy all F-classes came down, and the instructors hurriedly formed a disposal team. And I was given the mission right away. The humanoid superhumans were limited. I was naturally put in as the team leader as an A-class. If I had known, it probably wouldn’t have happened… I was lucky, so I set off as quickly as possible on the instructions. I wanted to get out of America as soon as possible.”

Yuhan Wol judged whether her explanation was valid.

If Bruce was behind the incident, he would have been the first to know, of course, that he had killed the president.

The news came through the media after some time had passed.

No matter how fast he moved there at the time, it took him half a day to bring his family.

So, the timing seems right when her handling team arrived in Shanghai a little earlier.

There was nothing suspicious about her attitude or explanation.

Yuhan Wol asked.

“Are humanoid superhumans that limited?”

Doesn’t it sound like there aren’t many humanoids other than her?

I feel like I can’t even properly operate a handling team right now.

After thinking for a moment, she opened her mouth.

“I’m not exactly sure… When I first went to America, I saw quite a few humanoid superhumans. But at some point, I think it became difficult to see.”

“At some point? Then, BH decorates something with humanoid superhumans?”

“Um… that’s how it feels.”

Then Aiden opened his mouth.

“Um. I see what Bruce is up to. Still, there were quite a few humanoids in the beginning.”

He continued talking to Dana’s gaze.

“In the beginning, there were a lot of humanoids. Because the experiments were carried out carefully. Although they are not considered to be true superhumans.”

Then she responded with a soft vomit, as if she had something to poke at.

“Ah, I think they’re probably instructors. They’re never ordinary either.”

Supervising and training superhumans.

“Is that so? That’s a pretty good use. Anyway, the bloomed abilities aren’t that great, so sending them out on a mission won’t have much effect.”

Yuhan-wol, who watched Aiden agree, looked at Dana and asked.

“Do you know how he killed the president?”

“That… I don’t know. I didn’t have time to think deeply.”

Dana quickly recalls her memories.

Bruce’s escorts were by his side at that moment.

Then, suddenly, something flashed through her mind.

“Oh, come to think of it… there was one thing that was different from usual.”

“What is that?”

“His secretary wasn’t there at the time. Obviously the voice he reported from outside the door, then the person who came in. It wasn’t his secretary.”

“secretary?”

She answered Aiden’s question.

“Yes. I’m Japanese.”

“Hmm. That’s not the BH secretary I know. Are you a superman?”

“yes.”

What it meant that the secretary was not with Bruce at that moment.

“Then the secretary killed the president?”

“I don’t know. I don’t know what role she played in the assassination of the president, but…”

Dana opened her mouth again.

“I will never be an ordinary superman.”

“This is a contract termination agreement. Read it and sign it.”

Inside the small conference room, Dana stared blankly at the documents that were suddenly pushed in front of her.

“Chief…?”

It feels as if words that don’t come out well have leaked out a bit.

At the sound of the small voice that Dana spit out as if talking to herself, the man sitting in front sighed loudly.

heavy atmosphere.

Then he frowned as if frustrated and let out a voice full of dissatisfaction.

“So…! Just give me a guess. How many times have I said VVIP? Huh? Then success is guaranteed. Can’t you just close your eyes and do one thing?”

“…”

Dana’s hand, which was placed on her lap under the desk, was clenched tightly, and the manager continued.

“If you don’t like it, you shouldn’t leave at all in the first place. Why would you make such a thing on the spot!”

“…you didn’t tell me it was a place like that.”

“Hey! You! Now… you say that… You! Do you know how many kids are lining up to get out there… Uh-huh, okay! What should I do with you and talk more? Sign it right away.”

“…”

He turned his head as if he did not want to speak.

He glanced at Dana, who was staring blankly at the documents, and said with a twitching tongue.

“Awkward! Are we going to break the contract too? How much money did you spend to raise one of you over the years. Huh?”

Dana raised her head and looked at the chief.

“But what? No matter what you do, you can’t succeed on this floor anymore. From our point of view, how are you going to keep doing this when there will be more money going forward, let alone recovering the principal? We’re not doing philanthropy. Yeah. ?”

“…”

As if he was declaring, the neat words resounded in Dana’s ears.

‘I can’t succeed on this floor anymore. At any cost.’

The manager glanced at her expression and spoke.

“Still, I’m not telling you to cancel this contract and spit out the money you spent during your trainee period. The company is telling you to take it all, but I blocked it all. Do you know what this is? You wrote a lot. If you don’t sign here, then I can’t stop you any more. So just sign it.”

His words echoed through Dana’s ears as she signed.

“It’s a condition to keep secrets about the things that happened during the trainee period. If you break that agreement, you’ll get your investment back and even compensation, so be careful with your mouth.”
