5. Evasive Tactics

Episode 5:

*Doctor Daniel comes back to Urk to his wife Ye Hwa* *part of the medical team goes to visit the solar plantation* *they go look for the missing kid* *they go to the restaurant*

Yoo Ji didn't know what she was going to do, but she knew she had to get out of the base. She went to the city. She planned to just walk around and check in on her usual sources, they most likely won't have updated but it won't hurt to try

As she left the solar energy plant she made her way back to the inner city and into a convenience store to grab a snack. She picked out her food and went to pay for it when she noticed a face that was familiar to her. She realized that he was the fake UN guy. He was holding a beer in his hand and talking to another guy. Her attention was brought back to the cashier, she took her stuff and walked out but stayed hidden from the two men. She watched as they interacted, she had hoped she wasn't right when she said the cops were cheap, she's proven wrong. She stayed there to watch them, maybe even tail them since she had nowhere to be.

She unscrewed her bottled water and took a sip, she almost spat it out when she saw Shi Jin come out from the restaurant a couple of feet away from the men, Mo Yeon behind him. He noticed them, his disbelief clear on his face, Yoo Ji wanted to laugh if this wasn't just a horrible situation.

She decided that she might need to intervene so she crept up closer to hear their conversation. She couldn't get too close or she would risk getting caught.

" Can you find the hardware store that we went to the last time? "

" You made sure I know, around the corner, across the street "

Shi Jin nodded and watched her go, once she was out of sight, he got out the gun he kept with him, Yoo Ji rolled her eyes, of course, he would use the most extreme choice. Yoo Ji contemplated going over there and confronting the boys with him, but she held back, she probably will need to use the element of surprise later.

Shi Jin pointed his gun at them, Yoo Ji couldn't see their expressions as they turned their backs towards her.

" I think we've met before "

" You don't seem very surprised, how is a peacekeeper threatening an unarmed civilian with a gun? " the white man said.

Yoo Ji mentally snorted, unarmed? Both men had pistols on them. It seems like Shi Jin noticed too. He unhinged his jaw and raised his eyebrow slightly. He cocked his gun towards the man before aiming at the car next to them and shooting the tire.

" You're not a civilian, and you're not unarmed ", Shi Jin responded. Yoo Ji's ears are still ringing from the echo of the gunshot. Both men drew out their weapons.

" I know you have connections with the cops, why do you keep showing up near me? "

It seems that the gunshot alerted their men inside as five men came out, four equally armed, while the last wasn't, he was wearing a black suit and sunglasses shielding his face. Yoo Ji's eyes darted to Shi Jin, he was outnumbered. She halted and it seemed like Shi Jin recognized this man, Yoo Ji couldn't place her finger on it but she feels like she's met him before too. He said something before aiming a gun at one of his men before giving it back to the man.

" Long time no see, Lieutenant, " he said to Shi Jin, Yoo Ji was shocked, they knew each other? From the military? The man took off his shades, and everything clicked. Yoo Ji was staring at Agus, a captain who went rogue and dealt weapons for a higher price, consumed by greed.

" Captain Agus? Why are you... " Shi Jin trailed off looking hurt and confused.

" Changed jobs as you can see, now I can grow my hair out, luckily the jobs are pretty much the same, shooting guns and making money " Yoo Ji scoffed, if they were not armed, she would've loved kicking his teeth in. it seemed like things were getting heated so she might as well make an entrance.
