The air temperature is still very cold out there, plus a gust of wind that is quite strong this morning. Mark opened his eyes slowly, then folded his legs until his knees touched his chest. Not to forget, he pulled a thick blanket of gray that is not irregular in shape and position due to the actions of humans who are still asleep


like a corpse next to him. Who else if not Kim Dean. Those who work together must stay at the police headquarters with a narrow single mattress like this.


Mark's head felt dizzy, plus the pressure on the back of his eyes. Thanks to Kim Dean for making him sip coffee at 10 p.m. He decided to go back to sleep for 30 minutes before getting ready for a 7 o'clock meeting with Jeffrey and his team.


Ah unfortunately can not, in his mind crossed the face of Kelvin Seo along with the psychological theories that accompany it, not to mention the curiosity of other findings in TKP yesterday afternoon. Mark then sat himself down, and woke Dean up by kicking slowly—but surely—the man's back. The owner of the back is still silent not flinching.


Mark then remembered something, then he grabbed his phone on the nightstand, contacted someone he was looking for from yesterday afternoon.


Calling Professor Eric Sohn....


"Sorry, the number you are calling is not active...."


Beep


Mark disconnected the phone and snorted in annoyance. Where did the Professor go? Though the information is needed after identifying foreign substances that are suspected to be the cause of mass death.


 


Meeting Room


April 22, 2016


07.15 KST


"Yesterday afternoon until evening, our team found some clues from this case. First, is the food supply company DIS, Claire Food and Agro Company. CEO and Director of R&D has been secured, and checked by Mr. Mark." Jeffrey explained before Dean, Mark, Taehyung, and several parties who attended the meeting this morning, including Ji Eun and Taeyong who backed up Eric Sohn's position if there was one


findings and discussion related to the substance.


"Next is on the list of employees. Based on the information we received DIS is known to be a highly qualified, and systematic school. Included in recruitment of members. However, five days ago, they received a new employee in the logistics division, precisely in the food subdivision."


Everyone in the room seemed to be upholding his sitting position, waiting for Jeffrey to continue his presentation.


"The name of the officer is Reina Hwang. Women, 24 years." continued Jeffrey who then displayed the face of the employee on the monitor screen.


Now all the meeting participants seemed to investigate a photo of a beautiful young woman with shoulder-length hair displayed by Jeffrey.


"We are looking for more information about this woman. He is not registered in electronic ID and other biometric data. But it is known, he is a Jeju citizen who has disappeared for 6 years since graduating high school."


A look of astonishment began to appear from all the people in the room, except Mark who continued to listen to Jeffrey expressionlessly.


"Another awkwardness about this woman was when we managed to restore the entire school phone conversation over the past week, and right on the day of the incident, exactly at 11 a.m, there was an alleged conversation of this woman with someone."


Jeffrey then pressed the pointer. Then the recording of the sound was played.


“Prezentacia Reina Hwang-L127 CBDG E1.” The voice of a woman with a foreign language was heard in the audio recording. Jeffrey understood, then paused the audio recording.


“This woman speaks in Slovak. That is, Reina Hwang L127 CBDG E1 presented.” he explained. He then pressed his pointer to continue recording


audio it.


“Czech location, bri vysadene, pripravene na vzlet.”


“CERY Seedlings already planted, ready to take off.” Jeffrey again translated the woman's speech by emphasizing on the word ‘ceri’.


“Gross!” this time there was a young man in the audio recording. Can imagine the happy expression of his speech intonation.


“Size. let za 3 hodiny.”


“Safe flights within 3 hours.” close Jeffrey. There is no continuation of that audio recording.


“This woman does speak Slovak, but she is not a native speaker, if heard from her accent. The accent is very British, and the Slovak language is not so fluent. But the man who became his interlocutor, using fluent Slovak.”


“Such as we found on the investigation process yesterday.”


Dean raised his hand as Jeffrey closed his presentation.


“Izin respond. The woman is likely the executor of the planner, aka the killer toxin maker. The guy!” Dean expressed his opinion with excitement.


“I agree!” taehyung exclaimed no less excited.


“Ah, yes, this person was already found about four months ago in the United States, in Massachuetts. He studied at MIT, Department of Molecular Biology.” Jeffrey replied with a look on his face that also looked confused. “How he was found after missing 6 years is still a question mark. And MIT? He is not the recipient of any scholarship, his family in Jeju works as an ordinary farmer.” he continued.


“Is he a genius?” this time Taeyong opened his voice. “I know one of my friends, it is him


not until it disappeared like this woman, but she received a scholarship ‘invitation path’ because of her intelligence, at Stanford.” he continued, emphasizing on the sentence ‘invitation path’.


“We did not find any information related to it.” replied Jeffrey.


“Alright, that information we need to find out more, but the most important thing at this time is to know and catch the woman.” Mark's speech then broke the silence of the meeting room.


“Flights are safe in 3 hours..” he continued while thinking. Mark seemed to be tapping his fingers on the wooden table in front of him.


“Find flight schedule information from Daegu and the nearest airport within 3 hours of the call being disconnected.” Mark's quick word finally.


“The call ended at 11:29” Jeffrey added.


“Oke. 3 hours from that time, or close to. Track the entire airline schedule, including whether there is a foreign identity in the passenger manifest.” Mark continued


“Siap, Kak” Taehyung replied. He seemed to be typing something with his laptop.


“I will do a more detailed analysis of the main chemical compounds of the synthetic flavor constituent of cherries detected on that substance. Is the compound more than just a trigeminal stimulus, or an actual toxin. The woman's conversation used cherries as a toxin code that was ready to be given to the victim.” Ji Eun opened her voice after just staying silent and analyzing the words of her colleagues.


“True. I will also replace Professor Eric for further analysis of the substance. Since he could not be contacted, I will send the sample to the Toxicology Alabama Asian Campus Korea. I contacted them yesterday.” Taeyong said this time.


“Good, we'll see you again tonight if there's new findings.” Mark said, then Ji Eun and Taeyong say goodbye first.


“Psychiatrist Wendy Son will arrive in 10 minutes to assist Kelvin Seo.” investigation


dean said right after.


“Good, prepare the room and instruments!” tell Mark quick. Dean immediately left the room.


“Only one airport can be reached within 3 hours from DIS is Daegu National Airport. Flights at that time were destinations for Incheon, Busan, and Seoul.” Taehyung explained his search results from earlier assisted by Jeffrey.


Mark immediately stood up and advanced his body after laying both hands on the table.


“Advanced flights from that destination? I'm sure, he's not in Korea.” Mark gives his hypothesis, after


believing in the visual direction, style, and language of the woman.


“Shortly. Lots of flight routes listed.” respond Jeffrey with eyes and fingers


not off his laptop.


“America, Germany, and Singapore!” then shouted.


“Kema—"


“Sister, Wendy Son has arrived.” Dean came up from behind the door. Mark rushes towards her, intending to assign the task of tracking the woman's position to Jeffrey and Taehyung. He is ready to multitask today.


“Jeffrey, and Taehyung, keep track of the woman's possible whereabouts. Involve the IT team and all parties support.”


“Puerto Rico?”


“What?” mark asked quickly for a moment before he closed the meeting room door to go to the interrogation room.


“Scheduled flights are only once a week from JFK Airport. Advanced flights from Incheon, and the United States.”
