(???'s POV)

After calling for a ride to pick them up, the lethargic man and old man both entered the car that was waiting for them outside.

As the car proceeded to bring them to their destination, the latter heaved a sigh before turning to the former... who was still fiddling with his phone.

"That was pretty rude of you to just leave without saying anything."

"...anything I said will be either lies or pipe dream. Leaving as soon as possible is the best."

"...even if that's true-"

"Also, I don't know how you called him over, but I had a feeling he did not want to come in the first place."

"......is that your opinion of him? Or do you think he is similar to you?"

The lethargic man did not say anything, merely continuing to focus on his smartphone. It was five minutes later that he finally stopped focusing on his phone and leaned his back on the car's seat.

And right after that, a message arrived on the old man's phone.

"...I wish you can focus more on your social aspects instead of only focusing on your work."

"That was not the requirement for me to work in this division."

"......"

Feeling that nothing he said would be heard, he could only heave a sigh as he watched the road.

Though, that did not take long as the two arrived at their destination in a minute. After parking the car inside the garage, the driver went out of the car and opened the door for the old man.

"...then, Sir Oswin."

"At ease. I'm not working at the moment."

"I'll be heading up first."

The lethargic man went out from the other side of the car, waving his hand before proceeding to tap his employee card on the card reader.


[Beep. Welcome Back, Septian]


"...this is not my home..."

As he murmured weakly, he pocketed the employee card before going through the automatically opened door...

"Hoo... so you finally came back?"

"...Greta..."

Greeting him inside the room was a female named Greta, wearing casual loungewear as she curled her legs on top of the chair.

Seeing the Korean Drama movie running on the screen, it was obvious that she was not working properly.

"What what? Did you fail getting information with your grouchy attitude as usual?"

"...I'm already done."

"Yeah yeah, I'm sure you're done. With Oswin doing the interview and you recording things on the back, right?"

"Sorry to burst your bubble." Oswin's voice came from outside the open room before he slowly walked inside. "But this time, Septian was the one who did the interview and gathered the necessary data."

"......seriously?"

"The subject was actually quite cooperative," said Oswin with a nonchalant tone.

"Is he not valuing his privacy at all?"

Oswin merely shrugged his shoulders, not answering Greta as he went to his seat and booted up his computer. When the screen lit up, he moved his head forward, using the camera on the monitor to scan his iris for biometric authentication before the screen finally lit up.
