Chapter 05. Fishy Fish Store

" . . . .I think I come to the wrong place."

After he went back to itaewon and reporting today's assignment, Ren changed his clothes and took his old motor bike. This bike was the only valuable thing left behind by his father. He also rode it all the way from Busan to Seoul about a year ago. And now, this bike also brought him to the area written in the business card, which is . . .a fish market.

Actually he already had a bad feeling when he read the address earlier. It was in Noryangjin. The most famous fish market in capital.

Although there was nothing wrong with going to the fish market, considering he came from Busan. But, still it left a bad taste in his mouth. Especially, since he already wore his only black suit. He only hoped that the fish stench would not stain his clothes and ruined his chance at job interview.

"Sigh, since I'm already here, lets look for the place first. Hopefully its not a fish store. Otherwise..."

There were so many people at the market today. It was hard for him to ride his bike through the horde of people and fishmonger. In the end, Ren had to get off his bike and pulled it, through lines of fish stores, following the direction from his phone. All along the way, many fishmongers offered him their freshest fishes.

Fifteen minutes later, he almost arrived at the outskirt of the market. The fish stores were getting fewer and fewer, and other stores started to come. His expectation was raised again. The hope of finding non-fish store place was high.

Soon, the mark on the phone stopped at a five- storied building. Unfortunately, the base of the building was . . . a big fish store. His lips twitched a little. There were some workers in front of the store. It seemed they were still sorting out fishes. Ren dejectedly walked to the nearest man.

"Excuse me, do you know this address?"

"This address.. yes here is the place. Do you wanna buy some fish?"

"No no,. I'm looking for a place by the name of Daeshan Securities."

"Ah, Daeshan Securities. Yes it is within this building, but their entrance is actually at the backside of this building. You can still go there though from here. just go to that corner, and there will be a door. open it and you will find the emergency stairs. Go to the third floor and you will find the office sign."

"Ah really, man, thank you so much. Ah, can I leave my bike here? I will not take a long time. I promise."

Since he was not planning to buy any fish, he felt for the man parking his bike infront of this fish store.

"No no, its not a big deal. just leave your bike here. their office is on the third floor."

After thanking the guy, Ren went to the back of the fish store. And sure, there were stairs leading above. Soon, he climbed the stairs, while nonstoply cursing his Dae Hwan hyung for not telling him the exact place.

When he finally arrived at the third floor, he opened the door to the third floor. There was a long corridor here, and some Ren walked along the corridor, where he finally saw a metal door with Daeshan Securities sign pasted on its surface. The sign was a little bit fade out, marking how long ago that sign was made. The metal door was also a bit rustic. There was no other people here on the third floor. It made the atmosphere a little bit chilly and spooky. He shooked his head, took a deep breath, hold the doorknob tightly, and then opened the door.
