Honestly, getting injured is a painful experience; it doesn't just affect your mobility, but also constantly reminds you that you're hurt and shouldn't move around.
Not only that, but my proficiency with Pistols and Shooting has dropped quite a bit, making the experience very bad.
Zhang Jie, while tending to his wounds, grumbled weakly, "If only I had a system, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state. I don't ask for much, but could I get an invincible golden body? And preferably infinite ammo!"
His limited ammunition reserves meant he couldn't counterattack on a large scale, only relying on close-quarters combat and evasion through movement. It was a painful fight, and many of his injuries came from this.
More importantly, he didn't dare to use the gun without a silencer. Seoul has such a high population density that a single gunshot would cause suspicion and panic.
And the glock 17 with a silencer had only a few subsonic rounds left; originally, he only had 50 rounds, and 34 were used from two magazines, plus those expended on the way, leaving him with exactly two magazines now.
So, Zhang Jie decided to catch the king first to catch the thieves. Since someone had put a bounty on his head, he would go and eliminate the person who issued the mission.
That kid yesterday said it was Cui Wenhan, right?
Hmph, although that name isn't very striking, anyone capable of hiring those assassins to kill him is definitely no small fry.
A little inquiry revealed that this was the head of the Choi Conglomerate and also one of the council members.
You, such a prominent and respectable person, why do you insist on engaging in such dirty dealings behind the scenes? What's the point?
It would have been better if you had just let me give you the item, and you gave me the money, then we would have been even, wouldn't we?
You just had to cause all this trouble.
And that damned Triads, just you wait.
As long as I don't die, you will.
Within a mere day, Zhang Jie was almost driven to distraction by all sorts of assassins.
If he hadn't relied on disguises to escape, he'd probably still be fighting, and it wouldn't be just a few minor injuries then.
After getting himself sorted, Zhang Jie quietly arrived downstairs at the headquarters of the Choi Conglomerate.
A frontal assault was impossible; how could he, alone, launch a direct attack?
The best method was still disguise, to sneak in first.
After observing for a while, Zhang Jie quietly followed an elderly cleaner as he left, trailing him all the way to his home.
After listening at the door for a good while, he finally knocked.
"Who is it?"
The elderly cleaner wasn't particularly wary of the knocking. The moment he opened the door, Zhang Jie squeezed in directly, then covered the old man's mouth and struck him on the back of the head.
"You should get some good sleep first."
Afterward, Zhang Jie found some tape and tied the old man to a chair, securing him with tape wrap after wrap, then fixing the chair to the edge of his bed.
The benefit of this was to prevent the chair from toppling over if he struggled, which might attract attention or allow him to find another way to be rescued.
After all, the purpose was only to kidnap him, not to kill him. Then, while he was unconscious, Zhang Jie took out the prepared latex and Vaseline.
He evenly applied Vaseline to the old man's face, then applied the latex.
After the latex set, he peeled it off his face, and a simple human skin mask was ready.
Next, Zhang Jie turned the latex over. The other side was already very thin, so now he just needed to apply makeup to it, trying to match the colors as closely as possible to the old man's face.
By the time Zhang Jie left the old man's house, it was 7 AM. Dressed in the old man's clothes and wearing his employee ID, he arrived at the Choi Conglomerate headquarters building, swiped the employee card, and entered the cleaning room.
Before long, he emerged pushing a cleaning cart, slowly sweeping as he went. He also encountered patrolling security guards, but seeing that it was Lee Jae-sun, they didn't say much. As a veteran employee of this headquarters building, no one would doubt his identity.
In this way, Zhang Jie, using his identity and the convenience of being a cleaner, gradually made his way to the 42nd floor, which was primarily his responsibility.
This floor had conference rooms, reception rooms, tea ceremony rooms, and lounges, all fully equipped.
When Zhang Jie arrived at the innermost chairman's office, he stopped. He didn't go in; instead, he continued to leisurely and slowly begin cleaning.
The security guard in the monitoring room, who had been watching the surveillance, glanced over and then immediately averted his gaze, seeing no unusual activity.
Before long, the elevator chimed, and then a person emerged, followed by a young man.
Zhang Jie's peripheral vision immediately locked onto the one walking in front. That guy must be the one named Cui Wenhan, right?
He had seen the young man behind him before; his name was Park Zhixun.
As expected, he was Cui Wenhan's personal secretary.
Cui Wenhan walked along, cursing and grumbling, evidently having suffered considerable losses from the skirmish with the Triads last night.
He hadn't expected the Triads to be so bold, daring to directly engage his assassin group in Seoul.
"For those who go back on their word, don't hold back; just eliminate them directly." Cui Wenhan's voice was loud, and he didn't stop as he passed the bulletproof glass where Zhang Jie was, but continued to walk forward.
It must be said that the target Zhang Jie chose was indeed excellent; he was not only experienced, but his actions would also completely avoid attracting attention.
Unfortunately, Cui Wenhan's elevator and his elevator were not on the same route, and there was a bulletproof glass partition in the hallway between them.
Noticing that Cui Wenhan had already entered his office, Zhang Jie suppressed his impatience. Making a move in this place would be like being caught in a jar.
He had intended to come here and stake out the office, but he hadn't realized that the security measures here were extremely stringent.
He couldn't even breach the bulletproof glass in the middle.
I just want revenge, not to die.
After getting a general understanding of the environment here, Zhang Jie decided to leave.
Through the employee passage, Zhang Jie returned to the first basement floor.
Making a move upstairs was very unrealistic, so Zhang Jie decided to leave via the parking lot.
However, what he didn't know was that when Cui Wenhan saw him through the glass earlier, he returned to his office and asked Park Zhixun, "I remember Lee Jae-sun never came this late to clean, did he?"
Hearing Cui Wenhan's words, Park Zhixun nodded, "Yes, he usually arrives around 6 o'clock..."
The atmosphere in the office instantly quieted.
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Cui Wenhan's forehead. If that guy had made a move on him just now, would he have died?
Park Zhixun also seemed to awaken from a dream at that moment, immediately picking up the phone, "Mobilize immediately and apprehend Lee Jae-sun!"
Upon hearing this, all the security personnel sprang into action, immediately beginning to seal off all exits.
Cui Wenhan was now absolutely certain that the guy was definitely not Lee Jae-sun; neither his working hours nor his work attitude were right.
Damn it, someone dared to infiltrate the headquarters building!
