Lisa removed her earpiece as well. She was lying on her bed, staring at the ceiling for a while before she remembered about contacting her doctor about her condition.
She took her phone back, which was still quite warm from the long continued call and dialed a number. She put her earpiece back on.
The ring lasted for a few times before it was finally picked up.
"Hello?" A sweet sleepy voice answered the call.
"Good morning, chipmunk~" Lisa playfully said.
"Lalice?... what are you calling me for, it's still too early.. call me again in two hours, okay?" Chaeyoung said as she wanted to just drop the call and get back to sleep.
"Wait no! first of all, it's already seven o'clock there, it's about time for you to wake up. And second, I really am calling for something important." Lisa hurriedly said.
"Something wrong?" Chaeng asked.
"Yes.. It happened again last night. It's been happening a lot lately and now, even five pills of pncx0397 are barely enough to contain my physical reactions." Lisa seriously said.
Chaeng finally lost her sleepiness, her mind now completely wide awake. She got up as she massaged her head for a bit and answered,
"Tell me exactly what happened."
"Yesterday I received a 'snatch-and-ask' assignment, so I went ahead and did just that. After I got home and finished my report, it just happened again.."
"You mean 'kidnap-and-interrogate'?" Chaeng asked with a bland tone.
"That's a mouthful so let's stick to snatch-and-ask.."
"Well then, I'm guessing the 'ask' part involved a little 'playtime' for you?"
"Yes.." Lisa quietly answered. "But I went easy this time! It was only light torture, and it only took a few hours to break the guy, soo.."
"But it still fueled your bloodlust. Then again, you've done worse before. But this time it only took one person to trigger an attack which usually required at least a few dead people, to a full-on massacre. Is there anything else that happened before that?"
"Well, I had another mission two nights ago but it was still just one guy. I didn't even touch him, I killed him in a flash with my mini-gun."
"hmmm.."
There was a moment of silence before Chaeyoung said,
"I've recently developed a new version of the drug, it's got a higher and more concentrated dose. That might be able to suppress your problem better."
"This isn't normally meant for human consumption, but let's face it, you aren't normal. However, we still can't afford to be careless and these unpredictable attacks are making me uncomfortable. Where are you at right now? I'll head there immediately, I think this requires my personal observation." She continued.
"I'm currently in Seoul, I'm off duty so you can come anytime." Lisa replied.
"Got it.. wait, what the hell are you doing in Seoul? I thought you're still wanted there?" Chaeyoung asked a bit perplexed.
"Nope, not anymore. Long story short, they managed to divert that thingy away from my ass and onto someone else's ." Lisa answered.
"Alright then, I'll have my people prep a jet for a flight to Korea. Don't accept any kill missions for a while, at least not before I get there."
