Episode 24. Helen’s Choice

Professor John Oldman was the director of a university research institute and a distinguished professor who lectured on pharmaceutical analysis and natural product chemistry at the university. When the FDA recently gathered top researchers to analyze new drugs, he first encountered the doctor’s new drug, which was shrouded in mystery, and the FDA had been analyzing the new drug. And it has come to this day without any progress, and the agents who worked at the doctor’s research institute that developed the new drug visited the FDA today.

The simple explanations that the agents had heard from the doctor and memorized were turning all of the professor’s knowledge upside down, and the professor was in the middle of declaring in the doctor’s lab that he would ‘learn from the beginning again.’

“What’s wrong with my age! I’m barely 50! I’m still young!”

“Professor. You’re not 50, you’re closer to 60. You’re too low….”

“Hmm… If that’s the case for me, I’ll just ignore it and move on….”

“There’s something else to skip over. Don’t do that… How about I go and check it out and relay the information to the professor…?”

He was talking about leaking research materials for an older professor. Of course, that was not possible.

“I repeat… It is impossible for any research results or processes from your lab to be leaked to the outside. If they are leaked, you will be immediately held legally responsible for the leak of strategic materials.”

An agent who was working as a researcher at a research institute was giving instructions on some basic things that one should be familiar with while working at a research institute again.

“The precautions I mentioned earlier are completely different from those of a typical company or research institute. If there is an external leak, the military and special agents will immediately be dispatched to arrest the criminal who attempted to leak American strategic assets and begin interrogation in a secret space. Of course, you cannot contact the outside world… Don’t even think about hiring a lawyer.”

“…I, I… forgot. That would never happen.”

The young researcher was frightened by the agent’s words and denied his earlier statement that he would relay information to the professor.

“I have to go. I will work as a general researcher at Doyle’s lab. Write down my name. John Oldman.”

Eventually, Professor John Oldman, now approaching 60, decided to work in Doyle’s laboratory.

“Wow… Professor John, I really can’t stop you. I’ll take good care of you. I’ll support you too. This is Well Gruber.”

A professor of pharmacy and chemistry at Harvard and his protégé have decided to work at Doyle’s lab. Two people have applied. They need to hire eight more researchers, but there are still no researchers who understand as well as Professor John and Dr. Well. The agents will have to move more busily to fill the necessary positions at Doyle’s lab.

Doyle’s Lab.

“Damn…. They really sent it.”

A notice of a temporary general meeting of shareholders from Wonho Enterprise arrived in my mailbox. The date was three weeks from now.

“Go there and tell me what to do….”

The first item on the agenda was to dismiss Chairman Jeong Won-ho and remove him from his position. It was also proposed that all of the chairman’s children be dismissed from their positions as internal and external directors. The person whose name was listed at the end of the agenda for dismissing the directors was Jeong Yeon-ju. This was because she was also registered as a director in the company.

“……You moved too? Do you feel distant all of a sudden?”

Beep.

“Haa…. Helen. Come in.”

Doyle, who had been pondering over the agenda in the notice, eventually called Helen. He was at a loss. He had no idea who to select as the representative to continue the management.

Helen opened the door wide and came in, then hid her hand behind her body and gently locked the door with that hand.

Click.

“Doctor~ You’re too much for calling me now….”

Doyle’s voice, full of agony, was ultimately thought to be a surrender to Helen’s persistent courtship.

‘Doctor… your deep breathing was so stimulating.’

Doyle’s sigh sounded completely different to Helen.

“But since you called me now… should I give you some leniency?”

In Helen’s hands, a button that was hanging precariously on her blouse came undone.

“Whoa, whoa. Calm down. Helen! Come on! I called you here for business!”

“Tch! What is it now?”

Helen’s eyes grew cold.

“First, button that up….”

Helen’s blouse was gaping open wide because of one button that was still undone.

“Huh! That’s my heart.”

Helen’s slightest movement caused the blouse’s gaping mouth to tremble.

‘Huh… Why is there nothing inside? I don’t know… I didn’t see it… ‘

I had nowhere to look because I felt like my eyes would keep meeting with her other eyes.

“……Okay. Do as you wish, but we need to investigate. Start investigating Wonho Enterprise and Wonho Group.”

“···That’s already over!”

Helen’s expression becomes fierce. Helen thinks that her ex-lover is still trying to harass the doctor’s heart. Blouse’s mouth also opens wide and seems to be screaming.

“···I thought it was over too.”

Doyle thought he would have nothing more to do with Wonho Enterprise, but Edward’s futile efforts eventually led to his connection with Wonho Enterprise being reconnected.

“It won’t last long if you start over with someone who’s already over. Doctor, don’t do that-”

Helen is tempting, and so is the revealing blouse.

“What are you talking about? I told you to find out about Wonho Enterprise. My ex-lover has nothing to do with it.”

“If it doesn’t matter, why are you looking into Wonho Enterprise? Just forget about it… Now, me and….”

“The president bought the company for me. The shareholders’ meeting is in three weeks. I have to go back to Korea.”

“Huh? The doctor bought the company?”

“It wasn’t me, it was President Edward who bought it! Eddie shouldn’t have done something useless….”

“No, why would the President do something he wasn’t ordered to do!”

The fierce expression on Doyle’s face was gone, but now it was Helen who was irritated by the President.

“That’s exactly what I’m saying… But… Helen, can you just say that so carelessly?”

“So what? I’m saying it with my own mouth….”

“No… I’m just wondering if it’s okay for a civil servant to do that. If they’re an NSA S-class agent, don’t they do ideological screening and such?”

“…….”

Helen’s expression quickly changed from a fierce expression to a blank expression.

“Doctor···.···Since when did you know?”

The existence of the Black Agent was a top secret that could not be easily revealed.

“what?”

“The question is, since when did you know my affiliation and rank, Doctor?”

Helen was asking questions with a blank expression on her face, as if she was interrogating him. It was Doyle’s mistake. Up until now, he had only remembered the fact that Helen was an S-class agent in his head and had not said it out loud, but his relaxed mind had made a mistake. It was too late to cover it up with lies now.

“From the beginning….”

“Did anyone tell the doctor? Who?”

“No one was there. I was the only one who knew. You can guess.”

Doyle thought it would not be difficult for anyone to guess that Helen was an agent sent by the government, but the affiliation and rank of the agent were absolutely unknown information.

“Doctor. Don’t lie. Who told you that I am a S-class agent?”

Helen’s interrogation is not over.

‘I know more than you think.’

Doyle’s information wasn’t over yet.

“Helen Grantia. Codename Mantis… In all the operations conducted so far, there has never been a man who has encountered you and survived?”

“!”

Doyle even knew the code name Mantis, which even the lab agents did not know.

‘The reason why the code name was created… .’

“…….”

Doyle continued speaking, facing Helen with a frozen expression.

“There is nothing in this world that I don’t know about. But I just leave it alone because it’s annoying and leave it to others. This case is no different. I could have looked into Wonho Enterprise’s business if I wanted to. I just called you to find the right manager.”

If Nano was released to the LAN, it would be possible. Any information contained in the computer could not escape Nano’s gaze. If he wanted, he could obtain all the information, but since Nano was not active and only passively collected information, Doyle had to choose the manager.

“What I just said is not yet known to the US government and intelligence agencies. I just told you, Helen. You can report it to your superiors or not, as you wish.”

“···Then really……. How is that possible? It’s impossible alone. Are you receiving help from some organization? Or should I assume that the Doctor’s hacking skills are outstanding?”

Helen believed Doyle’s words, but since she didn’t know Nano, she had no idea how to do it.

“It’s hard to say how… but if you want to report to your superiors… it might be a good idea to take a look.”

‘But I can’t tell you everything. I can only help you understand it to some extent…’

“Look at this, Helen. I’ll show you right now.”

Doyle was looking at Helen with his fingertips resting on the computer’s USB port.

“Come here and look at the monitor. Ask me anything. I’ll find it and put it on the monitor.”

Helen, half in doubt, approached Doyle and stood facing the monitor.

“What is the current position of the North Korean leader?”

Doyle nodded to Helen’s question.

“Wow…. A real agent is an agent. This is a very practical and important question. Just wait.”

For a while, I started gathering information through Nano. Nano’s movement path was not only through LAN cables, but also through electric wires with current flowing through them. Sometimes, it even jumped over them and moved and moved until it finally arrived at the desired location and sent information.

[Kim Jong-un inspects preparations for a nuclear test at Punggye-ri.]

“Kim Un-jung’s current location is Punggye-ri, Gilju County, North Hamgyong Province, North Korea.”

A map appeared on the monitor and a red dot blinked over Punggye-ri.

“What’s there…. Why is the North Korean leader there?”

“Don’t you know yet? It’s a North Korean nuclear test site. Punggye-ri.”

It has been in the newspaper several times since it was a place where North Korea had been conducting nuclear tests for a long time. Nano told Helen the location of the North Korean leader, but it seemed Helen didn’t know the North Korean place names very well.

“……I’m not in charge of North Korea……”

“Why are you asking when you’re not even in charge? Did you think I wouldn’t know?”

“yes.”

“Then ask for information about the area you are in charge of. That way, I can give you at least one piece of information you need.”

“But… how is this possible now, rather than knowing the information?”

Up until now, Helen had been in charge of operations centered on one-on-one combat, and had no specific area of ​​responsibility. And what she wanted to know now was the ability Doyle was showing. Doyle was moving the screen freely without touching the keyboard or mouse.

‘I don’t think it’s a trick… I have no idea.’

“···Ah. I was going to tell you that. But I was afraid you wouldn’t believe me….”

“It’s my fault whether I believe it or not. Explain first. I’m curious about everything about you.”

Helen was curious about everything about Doyle.

‘Explain everything.’

The information you want can be heard through Doyle’s mouth, not on the screen.

“There is a certain percentage of the brain that normal humans use. They say that geniuses use a slightly higher percentage.”

“Yes, I’ve heard of it. It’s said that geniuses like Einstein use their brains much more than the average person. Are you saying that doctors are also in that category?”

Doyle was not a genius, but he was thinking that maybe he was close to it now.

‘Because I’m with Nano.’

“Yeah. Similar.”

There is probably no case quite like Doyle’s anywhere else.

“Each human being has different capacity and performance.”

Doyle used to think of himself as ordinary, but not anymore.

“I am especially special.”

“Did you prepare the information you just mentioned in advance? If you knew that I was an agent, you could easily guess it.”

There was nothing outwardly special about Doyle, as all he did was put his finger on the computer. Doyle had no choice but to use his other abilities.

‘Nano. Find all of Helen’s data and upload it to the monitor.’

[Yes, Doctor.]

The monitor began to flash and display Helen’s past photos and information. Helen’s eyes gradually widened as she watched her information appear on the monitor.

“!!!!”

“Was your previous role in the UK? You also participated in operations in France. Helen’s stage was all of Europe.”

The latest information showed Helen’s recent mission area, England, and the results of the operations there.

“That’s top secret information!! How on earth…. More importantly, why did the computer get that information on its own….”

As Doyle lifted his fingers from the computer, the screen went black.

“It’s a power that I can exert with my brain. I can artificially manipulate and hack computers. I can access all the databases in the world and extract information. It’s as natural to me as breathing. Just like a normal person raises their hand and picks up a spoon with their fingers.”

“…….”

Doyle packaged Nano’s capabilities as abilities he possessed himself, hoping Helen would believe him.

“If the brain level of an average human being is like that of a bicycle, would I say my brain is like that of a Ferrari supercar?”

“······Can I understand that the Doctor himself is a human computer now?”

“Wouldn’t it be easier to understand it as something that far surpasses the level of an ordinary human being?”

“her!”

Helen began to come over little by little.

“Are you saying I can sit here and see the whole world? Using my supernatural powers to control computers?”

“Bingo! That’s the performance I was trying to show you. At first, I tried to check and inform you of secret things that I couldn’t remember or understand through the computer. I figured out the North Korean leader’s movements like that. The same goes for Helen’s top secret information. No matter where you hide it on a server, I can find it.”

The die has been cast. Now it’s up to Helen to decide.
