At 1:55 PM, Soorin walked up to the coffee shop.
Small.
Tucked between a convenience store and a pharmacy.
Easy to miss.
A sleek black Genesis G90 was parked across the street.
Tinted windows.
Dark enough to be nearly opaque.
The license plate was generic.
Nothing flashy.
Just random numbers that wouldn't stand out.
47마 3891.
Completely untraceable to LUMEN or Haejin.
Smart.
The passenger door opened from inside.
Haejin leaned over.
Except he didn't look like Haejin.
Black baseball cap pulled low.
Thick-framed glasses.
Face mask.
Oversized black hoodie.
Completely unrecognizable.
"Get in," he waved.
She crossed the street.
Slid into the passenger seat.
The interior was pristine.
Black leather.
Expensive.
That new car smell still lingering.
"Nice ride."
"Company car. One of the perks." He pulled down his mask slightly. "They keep a few with boring plates for situations like this."
"Smart."
"We've learned the hard way."
He smiled.
Really smiled.
"Hi."
