Remember Me, Baby.
Kim

Kim drove his car at a constant speed. Every now and then he looked back through the rearview mirror, then frowned slightly. Actually there was still about five hours for him before he had to report back to headquarters. While the rest of this trip was only about an hour left because he could use a helicopter that had been prepared before, so he was not worried at all about being late.

However, what made him a little anxious was a black ranger car that followed him from the city border.

At first he did not realize it, until then he turned to a shortcut that led to the city of Tokyo. There were not many vehicles passing through the road so he could clearly see that the black ranger followed him wherever he turned.

The woman had already tried to test her conjecture by deliberately stopping at the gas station. The ranger got into the line to line up, but drove straight back when Kim finished refueling. Then, as he pulled over in front of a roadside diner to buy food, the car pulled back not far from the parking lot.

Kim walked and entered the minimalist store, then immediately ordered the menu available. He circulated a glance to observe the room's decor is quite unique, a blend of eastern and western culture that is harmonious. Gray and white wall paint gives the impression of elegance as well as spacious. Everything looks clean and pretty neat. The distinctive aroma of cooking is smelled from the direction of the kitchen and publishes an appetite for food.

Kim, who had only wanted to test his stalkers, was finally hungry. After ordering rice, meat oseng with teriyaki sauce, boiled vegetables, as well as a glass of jasmine tea, he immediately sat on a special bench reserved for buyers who want to eat on the spot. He casually pulled out his phone and typed in a short message.

Someone's following me. If anything happens to me, immediately remove the chicks from the nest.

The girl immediately sent a message to one of her men, then put her phone back in her jacket pocket. He didn't want to take the risk of contacting Clark knowing the man was being tapped and watched closely.

If he is caught communicating with Clark, it will jeopardize the position of both of them. Therefore, they never make contact through any media, including mobile phones or email.

Not long after, the food he ordered had already come. Kim enjoyed his dinner very quietly, as if he was unaware of the presence of two men from the ranger car who were now coming down and sitting two benches on his left side.

The restaurant was so crowded that two of the stalkers were blocked by other visitors. Perhaps that's why they dared to approach Kim and sit nearby.

The corner of Kim's lips lifted, forming a sardonic grin that looked gloomy. His eyes looked calm but scary. Even the servants passing by nearby did not dare to greet him.

While continuing to stare into the still quite crowded highway, Kim played the tip of his thumb slowly. With a very careful and almost invisible movement, he pulled the thin membrane that enveloped the tip of his thumb, then dropped the white mini capsule that had been attached to the protective membrane. The capsule was only the size of a grain of rice. When seen by the clouds, the scene only looks like there is a grain of rice attached to Kim's finger.

Leisurely Kim brought his finger closer to his mouth, then swallowed the capsule like he was eating the rice grain left behind. After swallowing the mini-capsule, Kim continued to eat it until it ran out and enjoyed his jasmine tea. He took a slow sip of the drink and smelled its fragrant aroma.

He was a special warrior trained to deal with these kinds of things, therefore he did not look panicked at all even though in his heart he felt quite worried. However, at least now he had felt much better after swallowing the capsule earlier.

It contains a microchip that acts as a signal transmitter. Capsule sheath will not melt even if exposed to acid reflux. It was made of a special mixture of stone and metal that was made to withstand heat and fire, even mercury. Therefore, the signal-emitting chip will remain intact, unaffected by the acidic liquid that destroys anything that enters the stomach.

With a small size, the object will not give a significant enough influence while in his body.

Phoenix.Co had already made sure the object was safe for humans or if it was placed inside electronic objects, so Kim did not feel any doubt about the ability of the object in the slightest. As long as it was inside his body, then his comrades would always be able to find its location. So, what he needed to do now was not to take that thing out of his body, no matter what.

“Servant,” call Kim while waving his hand.

He immediately paid a sum of money in accordance with the bill listed on the bon, then walked back to the car. With his eyes, he could see the two men coming out of the tavern and walking towards their car with steady steps, not too fast and not too slow.

He immediately stepped on the gas pedal so deeply that his car tires squeaked on the road, making almost all eyes fixed on the vehicle that immediately shot away from the place. From the rearview mirror, he still had time to see two stalkers in a hurry and get into their car.

“Feel!” sneer at the girl while smirking in satisfaction.

He turned the steering wheel and turned to the right when he encountered a crossroads. The girl was delighted to think that she had managed to trick the two men back there.

But, it turns out that his guess was wrong. When he had just entered the tunnel in the under pass, a container truck speeded up from the front and darted towards him uncontrollably. The movement of the car looked like a vehicle that had a brake blong, but Kim suspected the reality was not like that.

With a swift Kim pressed the horn button repeatedly, but the truck car actually hit the other cars in front of him. There are only a few seconds to make a decision. Kim quickly slammed the steering wheel and tried to avoid the crazy truck.

He saw there was a chance to escape from the right side, in the part of the road that was at least enough for him to avoid before the momentum of the collision with the road divider occurred.

Unfortunately, as soon as Kim turned the wheel in the direction he had expected, a black ranger hit the back of his car very hard. Kim's body jerked forward, his eyes rounded with a sharp screech that shrieked high.

Braaak!

An extremely loud impact sound resounded within the tunnel. Kim's car floated for seconds before falling back and colliding with other cars that had been hit by container trucks.

Kim's neck felt as if it was broken when his car rolled to the left side of the road and was dragged by a truck that was still speeding. The giant vehicle continued to drag Kim's car until it was sandwiched between the body of the truck and the tunnel wall.

Kim coughed as smoke and dust filled his lungs. His breathing felt tight, he felt like he was being strangled by an invisible hand. His body was tied to the chair in an inverted position, making the red liquid that seeped out of his scalp drip onto the roof of the car. It was pungent on his cheeks and chest, but he had no time to take care of it.

He quickly pressed a button to remove the seatbelt, causing his body to slump down and hit the roof of the car filled with broken glass. His arms and elbows were scratched and bleeding as he tried to crawl out of the car.

When the woman was just about to grab the weapon behind her jacket, a hard kick landed on the tip of her chin making her fall back down.

Kim groaned loudly. Looks like his teeth are broken. He spat on the ground, watched the red and thick liquid slide out of his mouth, then wiped the corners of his lips with his arms. His right eye was swollen, felt throbbing and painful.

“Akh!” his groan again when his hair was pulled so hard that he was forced to look up.

The two men who followed him earlier grinned viciously at him while saying, “Want to run away? Dream!”

Kim's gaze darkened as punches and kicks burst into his body. It hurt so much that he could feel nothing more. His eyes were tightly closed when he finally completely lost consciousness.
