142. The girl next door
“… … Uh, huh? hmm? yes? huh?”
“Mr. Gwangik?”
A handsome assistant manager called from behind, but I couldn’t hear him.
Why is he here?
“This is a new employee, Kang Hye-min.”
I wore a black dress and makeup.
Wavy hair fell down her shoulders.
Normally, I would have said that painting my face wouldn’t change anything.
I definitely would have done that if we had met inside the apartment complex.
“hmm.”
Only short syllables came out of my mouth.
“Are you so happy you’re speechless?”
Hyemin asked.
No, it’s so absurd that I’m speechless.
“Do you really know each other?”
Deputy Panda asked.
“I’m the younger sister of the girl next door.”
I answered reflexively.
“We made a promise for the future.”
Hyemin spoke from the side.
“hmm?”
Assistant Manager Panda opened his eyes wide.
“That’s not it.”
Let’s calm down, take a breath and face the situation.
This is Kang Hye-min.
The younger brother of the girl next door who missed the CSAT this time and was worried about what he would do for a living in the future.
A student I was a tutor for, but didn’t want to admit it.
A fierce kid who is good at high kicking.
I looked at Hyemin blankly and asked.
“Is it possible for a high school graduate to work in our company?”
“Did you graduate from college?”
The team leader asked back.
Oh, I was also a high school graduate.
The shooter waved his hand in front of me.
“are you okay?”
And to ask.
“Yes, it’s okay. “I was just a little, no, very surprised.”
I think it’s time to get an explanation.
Hyemin Kang: What was so exciting about this? He just smiled brightly at me.
But after decorating it, it looks quite pretty.
Of course, it was more about his personality than his appearance.
“I hope to go along well.”
He wore a mask of pretense and pretended to be gentle, and his personality was not visible.
“This is until tomorrow afternoon.”
The handsome assistant manager from behind handed Assistant Manager Panda a folder and tapped me.
“Mr. Gwangik, um, see you later. “It looks like you’ve seen something really wrong on your face.”
“Yes, yes, sir, please come in. “Thank you for running the aquarium well.”
Before I knew it, nonsense came out.
“yes?”
“no.”
Let’s fix it first.
The handsome assistant manager tilts his head and leaves.
The team leader looked at me like that and asked.
“You didn’t know?”
It was a stupid question.
“yes. “I didn’t know.”
I truly didn’t know. The kid who lives next door is a wizard.
Whether I was surprised or not, a new employee had arrived.
“In 30 minutes, gather in the conference room.”
The team leader said.
Even though I was shocked to hear that, I expressed my dissatisfaction.
“Why the f*ck don’t you do it?”
No, you did it to me.
Wasn’t that our team’s first official greeting?
“f*ck, are you okay?”
No, you did that to me, you idiot.
Hyemin pulled my collar.

“Are you very surprised? “My brother.”
“hey.”
“huh?”
“Shouldn’t a wizard be smart?”
I don’t know why I’m curious about this at this moment.
“It should be good.”
Hyemin just laughed.
* * *
Name: Kang Hye-min, current age: 20.
The younger brother next door who skipped the CSAT.
This was the Kang Hye-min I knew until yesterday.
And before entering the conference room, Hyemin briefly explained the situation to me.
“I didn’t mean to deceive you. “I was going to tell you when I got married.”
“Is it time to joke?”
“Anyway, I started learning magic when I was eight years old, and I didn’t want people to know my true identity, so I refrained from doing things that drew attention. end.”
Was that the extent of your restraint?
If you say ‘High Kick Kang Hye-min’ in our neighborhood, there won’t be a bully who doesn’t know.
I listened to her with my arms crossed.
The surprise has passed.
My father said. No matter what happens in front of you, if you have to accept it calmly, do so.
I did that.
Kang Hye-min is a magician. And you fooled me until now. I cheated.
“You didn’t tell me that you’re immortal too.”
“How did you know I was immortal?”
“Immortality is achieved with magic, and transformation is achieved with superpowers. “Have you never heard of this?”
I heard it.
I’m talking about four special species.
The special nature of magic is fatal to immortals.
The diversity of superpowers means that it is good to catch shapeshifters.
This comes from the fact that immortals and shapeshifters are bound to be superior in terms of combat ability itself.
Of course, this is all case by case.
Wizards are not the natural enemies of immortals.
“What does that matter?”
“It means that you can’t hide the identity of a special species from someone who uses magic. Especially immortal ones.”
They say she cheated, but in reality, it was something that could not be helped in Hyemin’s situation.
I wouldn’t have been able to reveal my identity easily.
If you need to understand, you need to understand.
Although it was surprising enough to remind me of my father’s teachings over and over again, I calmed down.
“Yes, I understand.”
And I accepted the situation.
“hmm? “Aren’t you mad that I cheated?”
“What is anger?”
Am I in a position to be angry?
I’m already living my life hiding the fact that I’m a hybrid of immortality and transformation.
“it’s okay. Okay, I know you’re a wizard, but how did you join the company?”
“That’s in the conference room.”
The team leader told us to meet in the conference room in 30 minutes.
“Okay, let’s go.”
The team leader seemed to know something.
So the three teams, with a total of five people including new employees, gathered in the conference room.
When the door is closed, it is completely soundproof, so there is no need to worry about sound escaping outside.
There was no need to turn on the hologram project.
With a click, I turned on the LED light and sat down.
The team leader sitting inside looked at Hyemin and nodded.
Hyemin woke up.
“To introduce myself, I think I should first talk about the Magic League. “To date, there are a total of four federations known to the world of special species.”
Illuminati based in Europe.
A fighting poet with a Russian background.
American Galaxy.
Circle of Asian Union.
There are four known alliances, but not all wizards belong to them.
“I am a wizard that has been passed down through tradition, so I am not a member of the alliance.”
The immortal’s intuition was keen.
I had an unreasonable feeling that there might be another reason why Hyemin came to work.
“And you could say the reason I came here was to get a fake job.”
The explanation was quite lacking.
“… … “Fake employment?”
Deputy Panda tilted his head to one side.
The team leader tapped and pounded the desk with his fist to get their attention.
“I explain it simply and simply. “During the previous Ma Yun takeover incident, how did the other party know the route?”
The moment I heard that one word, my head automatically turned.
It wasn’t just me.
“You’re a spy.”
the gunner said.
The Immortal Special Forces experience is not One Day or Today.
The shooter was always serious, especially when it came to matters related to Prometheus.
The gunner was right.
“right. It may be a security team, an analytics team, or even an audit team. We are looking for an in-house spy. “This is an unofficial operation.”
When Hyemin calmed down her shocked heart, her head returned on its own.
It is said that a wizard was called in to find a spy.
why? Because we couldn’t find it on our own.
In other words, it was impossible to know even with the senses of an immortal or the lie detection that is periodically checked by a psychic.
In other words, the conclusion is that he used the ability to avoid sensitivity or supernatural powers, and that the only such ability is magic.
If you have any doubts, there is only one.
“Why are you crying?”
Originally, this work should have been done by the internal audit team.
It’s one of the things Team Leader Park Da-ram has to do.
“One of the immortals was from that team before. “It’s not a safe area.”
Assistant Panda, who sensed my intention, spoke.
There might be other reasons.
Our team achieved the feat of catching Managing Director Ma Yun.
Searching for Immortalists in the position of Sangmu.
This was accomplished through the hard work of my team, and more specifically, myself.
The team leader, Panda assistant manager, and gunner are all involved.
Therefore, our team, which achieved great achievements, is said to be a spy-free area.
“Spies use magic.”
As if to prove that my thought process was correct, the team leader spoke, and one person’s name naturally came to mind.
Jeong Ho-nam.
Among the immortals I know, he was the only one associated with magic.
no way.
Just thinking about it now doesn’t mean you can come to a conclusion.
“So you’re not really employed?”
I gave up my thoughts and asked Hyemin.
“No. “I came in because I needed status to work officially.”
Then why didn’t you tell me in advance? You’ll find out anyway.
“And he probably drew a picture of the wizard and the government officially joining hands.”
The team leader added.
“Yes, that’s right. “The higher-ups must have decided that it is time for us to head out to the sun.”
Hyemin answered.
“The meeting ends here. “If we find someone related to magic, the wizard girl here will tell us, and we will observe that person and capture him/her if possible.”
The team leader spoke and waved his hand as if to disperse.
“Officially, I am your successor, so you will have to teach Gwangik.”
Deputy Panda said and I nodded.
They came out and showed us how to answer internal phone calls and also taught us operational terminology needed in case of an operational situation.
“Wow, I’m a little excited.”
Hyemin said.
“what?”
“If I work overtime, my brother will bring a packed lunch and eat it with me.”
“I?”
“huh.”
“Is that kind of relationship?”
The assistant manager of Team 2 across the partition said.
“no. no. “It’s the girl next door.”
The assistant manager looked at me and smiled.
It seems like he’s trying to say that he knows everything and that it’s okay.
“It’s not really true.”
It appealed strongly.
“I get it. Well, I guess I’ll catch an immortal.”
Why is this guy so involved?
“It’s nice to see you get along well.”
Deputy Panda said from the side.
“We don’t get along well. “She’s the girl next door.”
“okay. “I knew.”
“thank you. Assistant Manager Lee Dong-hoon, and I respect you. “I also really enjoy that anime.”
Hyemin said and pointed to the figure on Assistant Manager Panda’s desk.
“Oh, you know something.”
“I’m a wizard again. “I’m a wizard fanatic.”
The figure was wearing some sort of cape.
I don’t know what it is.
“Welcome again. Hyemin.”
“I’m so happy to have such good teammates.”
It’s a good hit.
When he was with me, he always leaked, so why doesn’t he leak like this here?
“If you go here, it’s the intranet, and check the notices every day.”
I ignored it and did what I had to do.
Hyemin nodded as if she understood and quietly spoke to the shooter.
“Assistant Manager Kim Jeong-ah.”
“why?”
“Would you like to have dinner together?”
“today?”
“Yes, do you have any plans? “My brother will go with me too.”
“Not my brother, but my assistant manager.”
The gunner corrected the title.
“Oh right.”
Hyemin says and hits me on the head. Is he acting cute now?
My fist almost went out.
I felt sick.
“okay.”
The gunner nodded.
Hyemin smiled brightly when she saw that.
“I am?”
Assistant Manager Panda intervened.
“Mr. Manager, you will eat it tomorrow. Hehehe.”
Hyemin laughs after every word.
I quietly turned on Hyemin’s computer notepad and typed away.
[It’s abominable. Take action.]
Hyemin glanced at it, erased it, and wrote it underneath.
[Don’t worry. my man.]
Who’s your man?
Is this crazy?
Despite this vehement denial, rumors had already started circulating and the messenger was on fire.
[Kang Purum] Is it true? girl friend?
This kid said he had a successful diet, but it’s really hard to look at his face.
He told me it was the woman next door.
There was nothing else to express.
[Fart Guitae] You’re not reaching out to Miho anymore, are you?
It didn’t extend in the first place. This guy.
[Jeong Ki-nam] If you bring me home, I will kill you.
Why is he like this?
[Woo Miho] Be sure. The analysis team keeps asking if this is your girlfriend and if this is solid information.
Was that an issue that would go up to the analysis team?
[Kim Yo-han] I heard you have a child?
No, how do rumors spread?
Why are you having a child?
I dutifully typed out each and every word and sent a reply.
It’s the girl next door.
He just said he was my younger brother.
Hyemin ate dinner with Sasu and me on the first day.
The next day, after having lunch with the Panda assistant manager and dinner with the team leader, he called us into the conference room.
Did the new employee call the meeting?
It was a strange feeling to see the team leader following those words.
“First of all, all four of you are clean.”
Hyemin looked at us gathered in the conference room and said.
“Was it a test?”
I asked.
“Because my safety is at stake.”
Hyemin said.
There was no Kang Hye-min I knew here.
The girl next door I knew turned out to be a wizard.
Hyemin, who had been learning magic since she was eight years old, smelled like a professional.
