Author's PoV

Cho: "What?!"
He blurted in surprise.
Hwan: "He wants his daughter back, safe and sound. So he's offering more, and every time I say no, the offer just seem to go up."
He murmured shaking his head looking at the screen, and sending a "No" again into the private chat box with a chuckle.

"300 million won, plus a diamond I have worth 1 million US dollar."

The message popped up, the price increased instantly along with a bonus they never expected.

Cho: "What?! Say yes man. 1 million USD!? we won't get that even if we do this all our life."
He raved in excitement.
Hwan sat up interested in the offer but thought carefully squinting his eyes.

"Please, I have nothing more. Please, return my daughter. Please...I beg you..."

The desperate messages appeared on the screen, one after the other.

"Deal"
Cho hurriedly typed and slammed the enter button.

Hwan: "What the hell did you do that for?!"
He snarled at him, grabbing his shirt.
Cho: "Come on man! We can't be doing this all the time. Let's use this chance and take the money."
Hwan: "You know we have to be careful. The offer sounds too good to be true."
He warned him cautiously.
Cho: "Let's ask him to pay the money first, then return the girl and collect the diamond. That way he won't mess about."
Hwan exhaled relaxing back, taking the last long puff of his cigarette. The smoke slipped through his lips filling the air around them with strong tobacco scented fog.

Yoo restlessly walked back and forth waiting in-front of the door. He squeezed his fists tensely, after checking the time and looking at the name board on the door.

KIM NAMJOON
Special Agent
National Intelligence Service (NIS)

Few minutes later, An officer in black suit walked out of the room.
"You can go in Mr Gong."
He informed him and nodded reassuringly.
Yoo: "Thank you"
He uttered and walked in pushing through the door before it shut fully.
Namjoon: "Hello, Mr Gong!"
He stood up to shake his hand.
Yoo: "Hello!"
He briefly and loosely shook his hand before sitting down.
Yoo: "What's happening? I thought I informed you in time, you still haven't done anything about this?!"
He enquired anxiously before Namjoon even sat down.
Namjoon: "Yes, about that Mr Gong..."
He hesitated.
Yoo: "Officer, my daughter is in danger."
He said desperately.
Namjoon: "Mr Gong, I understand, but we can't act suddenly based on what you just tell us, we need evidence. Also, you do realize the risks in this? If something goes wrong, your daughter's life is in risk."
He carefully tried to explain it to him.
Yoo: "I know, I know. But please, this is the only way. You have to help me please. I need to save her..."
He implored leaning over the table. Namjoon sighed looking at the distraught father.
Namjoon: "Mr Gong, I'm overlooking so many rules in our protocols to help you. There're lot of risks in this."
Yoo: "I know and I'll do everything I can to help put it right if it goes wrong. But, you have to help. Please..."
Namjoon: "Ok, but all of this will be kept off the record for now. Because I haven't requested permission from my Chief officer. Trust me, he wouldn't agree to this."
Yoo: "Ok...I understand. Thank you so much."
Namjoon: "But you have to remember, this is more likely to go wrong than right. We have very slim chances."
He warned looking at him.
Yoo sighed in relief holding Namjoon's hand for helping but his heart grew more anxious.
Yoo: "Have they spoken about locations?"
Namjoon: "Not yet. We'll have to wait for our man to inform us. But the deal's finalized and happening tonight. We have no other details."
Yoo nodded, slowly releasing his hands from his clasp and sitting back. He knew the wait is gonna be long and painful.
