Attent¡on

⫷3⫸

Chan, out of frustration, thumps the table and successfully gains the attention of one of his two teammates. Hyunjin's eyes widen as he realises that he is the reason why everyone else in the conference room is just shuffling impatiently and Chan is practically throwing daggers at him and his colleague.

"Mr Lee!... Lix!" The taller whisper yells at a hypnotised Felix, who is apparently too immersed into his dreamland while playing with Hyunjin's dangly earring and staring at his side profile.

It's a miracle of the nature that even with his subconscious mind, Felix can accurately decipher whatever Hyunjin speaks in his sweet voice, and that works with Hyunjin exclusively.

"Huh?"

Felix averts his eyes towards the entire room and finally when his orbs meet the burning one's of Chan, he abruptly faces the owner of the voice again.

Hyunjin only glares at him and points towards the furious leader with his eyes, signalling the shorter to turn there instead. Understanding, Felix does as expected.

Chan tries to regain his cool by taking deep breaths and once achieved, he clears his throat and speaks while looking directly in the eyes of his fellow Aussie.

"It is deemed better to pay your attention towards the agenda of the assembly rather than Mr Hwang in the working hours. Right Mr Lee?"

Gulping, the questioned one nods in confirmation and glances at his tempting colleague again, who decided to wear some makeup before the commencement of the meeting, primarily to cover the red blotches on his skin from earlier, but it ended up acting as sprinkles on an already delicious donut. Felix collects every unit of his energy so as to give all his attention to the leader only and avoid the distraction.

"Everyone.." Chan utters to have all the attention for himself since a few are yet occupied in gawking at Hyunjin. As all the curious eyes are on him, the chief begins with his speech.

"Firstly, news of the week is... that our upcoming missions will be executed out of the town.. Precisely in Busan, since a lotta concerning scenes have been witnessed there lately, and I doubt that they'd persist being ruinous for approximately...uh next two months more as one reporter had stated. Although details of the missions have been mailed to y'all already, I'd prefer discussing the issues and solutions here."

Earning five nods in response, the orator continues his speech.

"Good!.. So to begin with, I would like Mr Kim to brief our teammates about the current happenings we are going to take action against."

The puppy-like nods affirmatively and starts to speak as per expected, once all the attention turns solely towards him.

"According to the KSM data researchers, the crux is that three significant residential buildings in Busan have been set ablazed and unfortunately thirteen deaths have been noted yet. Suspicions suggest that there's a gang behind all the arson attacks, that apparently felt underprivileged in terms of apartment facilities for doing so. Moreover, the rate of homicides occuring in the areas nearby are shockingly increasing by each passing week. They're also the deeds of the same gang, considering the assumptions while I personally don't believe. There are several minute features, left as footprints, of the crimes taking place that have been observed by the investigators there."

"Thank you Mr Kim for the synopsis."

The leader expresses his gratitude for the research work done by his teammate. He then carries on speaking the leftover part.

"So seemingly the 'Maniac' group of Busan is unable to keep it's eyes focused on all the catastrophes happening simultaneously. Hence, they seeked for aid from us and having spread peace all over Seoul, we don't have any reason to deny them."
