Episode 29 [Eve ⑶]
Jeong Won-sik, Eun-hye’s father and former president of [Hangang Company], was sitting on a hospital bed, watching TV and talking.
“Why are you always watching the news instead of watching dramas? “It’s not the first time the government bastards have done something stupid.”
The caregiver sitting next to him grumbled,
“No, the guy who was making a fuss a while ago has gotten better and is ready to destroy the TV.”
“There are a lot of dramas and variety shows that I couldn’t watch because I was sick, but I’m always watching the news. “They say they will agree and sort everything out behind the scenes, but for no reason they cover their eyes and say nothing.”
“But I’m glad Mr. Jeong has the energy to be angry again.”
Wonsik looked apologetic at the words of the guardian in the front seat.
“It was so noisy with the elderly people around. “I’ll be quiet.”
“It’s better to be noisy. It’s been too quiet so far. When Mr. Jeong is discharged from the hospital, it will feel like a grave again.”
A look of exhaustion was evident on the old guardian’s face.
The six-person hospital room where Jeong Won-sik was housed was filled with patients with similar progress. All of them were
cancer patients in the later stage of life. All of them had difficulty speaking, and some of them had tubes stuck in their throats. .
Not long ago, Wonsik was no different from them.
After drinking the water that my daughter brought me as a strange medicinal water, he changed like this, but he said,
“Mr. Jeong!”
At that time, a voice was heard calling him from the door.
A strong male voice. It was a voice I hadn’t heard in a long time.
“Oh, you really came.”
Wonsik welcomed the person who came in with a happy face.
He placed the drinks Kyunghoon brought on the cabinet next to the bed.
“Why did you bring something like this? Even if you came bare-body, I would run out to greet you.”
“Even if you say that, this is just an ordinary drink.”
“Hey man. “I could never have thought that.”
The two sat across from each other and happily talked about what happened so far.
While talking, the two people deliberately did not bring up the topic of mineral water.
Kyung-hoon had already told his daughter that he would not sell it. Unless Kyung-hoon speaks up first, he plans to keep his mouth shut.
While we were talking for a while, it was time for treatment.
“You can move, so come to the doctor’s office. They said you’re bothering me. “Are you going to wait?”
“Let’s go together. I’m also curious to see how well you’re feeling.”
“I guess that’s true, let’s go together.”
The two went down to the treatment room on the first floor.
The doctor in the treatment room didn’t think it was too strange to see Kyung-hoon.
The results of the treatment were not bad.
“You must continue to come every week even after you are discharged from the hospital. Stage 4 cancer has been reduced to stage 2, but it is not completely cured. “I have to continue receiving chemotherapy.” “Of course, when did I not listen?”
“No… phew. Now listen carefully.”
Wonsik seemed to be very upset with the doctor. Since he said that he had taken all kinds of medicine, there was no way the doctor would not be surprised. “Oh, that’s right, please explain to me one more time how you got better
before you leave the hospital. . I always forgot about this….”
Wonsik squinted one of his eyes without the doctor knowing.
Kyung-hoon just smiled at the unexpected help.
Fortunately, the doctor was friendly. He even showed me charts and MRIs and explained things in an easy-to-understand manner.
” … It’s safe to say it’s a miracle. “I don’t know how this happened, but there is no guarantee that such a miracle will happen again, so please follow the hospital’s prescriptions.”
“I told you not to worry.”
The two people left the treatment room with happy faces.
However, after leaving the clinic, Wonsik frowned when he saw the person approaching in front of him.
He made a subtle gesture at Kyunghoon without anyone noticing him approaching.
Kyung-hoon stopped walking, and Wonsik continued walking and faced the approaching person.
“Have you changed your mind?”
“How can you change your mind? It was given to me by a visiting guest. Moreover, it is not clear whether the medicine has improved the condition. “If you change your mind, please let me know right away.” “The chairman has high expectations.”
A sturdy middle-aged man said nothing and then walked past them.
“Hey, I’ve been bragging for no reason and work has become a hassle.”
“Is this the person the old man sent you?”
“Oh, I heard you bother people like that sometimes. Well, it doesn’t really matter since I won’t have to see you anymore once I’m discharged.”
Kyung-hoon looked back. The man crossing the hallway looked very bloody. As expected, it was the
right decision not to get involved.
“I saw that you were okay, so I’m going back now.”
“Why wait a while before going and see my daughter? He often talks about you. “You’ll like it when you see it.”
“That’s because Eunhye is a dutiful daughter. I’ll go first. Enjoy your discharge.”
“okay. I’ll call you once after I’m discharged. “You can’t drink alcohol, but you should at least have something delicious to eat.”
“Yes, see you then.”
Kyung-hoon left the hospital after saying hello to Wonsik, who waved his hand. As he
left the hospital, he glanced at the cell phone in his upper pocket.
The cell phone camera was slightly sticking out of the upper pocket.
He checked that there was no one nearby and turned on his cell phone. He plugged in the earphones.
He put the other end of the earphones on his ear and started talking as if he was muttering a song.
“Was there anything useful?”
Eve’s answer came through the earphones.
-I took pictures of all your charts and MRIs, and the doctor’s explanation was not bad. There was no clinical trial data, but we obtained good data.
Kyung-hoon’s eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard the words “clinical trial.” It was because of Eve’s inconsiderate tone. Because of that direct way of speaking, I felt once again that she was an AI.
But now was not the time to point that out.
“So, are you ready?”
-Yes, combining the basic information about the healing potion I have with the information I have just obtained will help make people understand.
Kyung-hoon smiled at her words. Now, let’s get started on the goods. It was time to sell.
“Then, shall we contact the buyers?”
A few days later
in the Russian capital, Moscow.
A middle-aged man was alone in an office on the top floor of a building, staring at a glass bottle on his desk.
On the desk he was sitting at was a plaque showing the chairman of Mingaz, one of Russia’s leading energy companies.
The middle-aged man was the owner of this room, Chairman Boris Bykov, who had brought Mingaz to this position with his bare fists.
At that time, the door burst open and the secretary came inside.
“The post has been posted now. “It’s the same as what was written in the email.”
At the secretary’s words, Chairman Boris leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath.
“It wasn’t a joke.”
“Yes, it’s true that EV sent it.”
The chairman’s thoughts deepened at the secretary’s answer.
“The ingredient analysis failed, right?”
“Yes, it contained a completely unknown substance.”
Chairman Boris glared at an item called a potion that had arrived yesterday via high-speed international express.
“Now that the confirmation is over, I just have to decide what to feed it to.”
But the decision wasn’t easy. This
started with an email sent a few days ago.
An untraceable direct email to the president with the sender listed as EV. .
In it, it was written that if you showed it to the account written on it in good faith, they would send you a medicine that could cure much of your daughter’s illness. Below that, the effectiveness of the
medicine and details of clinical trials were followed, and
finally, a few days later, to build mutual trust. It said that half of the medicine would be sent by courier and that he was attaching a document to be posted online next time to prove his identity.
After the secretary checked the email, the company was put on alert.
Normally, the email would have been sent to the trash, but the sender It was EV, one of the most famous people right now.
Moreover, the sender was invisible, it was an untraceable email, and a document to be posted next time was attached. It was
too believable to be dismissed as a joke.
Moreover, Chairman Boris thought it was a cure for his daughter, who regarded it as her life. He couldn’t help but have high hopes.
This matter had become a secret known only to the secretary, the president, and a few people at the top.
As long as his daughter’s cure was at stake, he had no intention of informing the government. I don’t know if it will happen after his daughter gets healthy, but for now, his daughter’s Life was the most important.
And the medicine mentioned in the email yesterday arrived. It was a clear liquid in an unmarked glass bottle. The
amount of liquid was not large, as they said only half was sent.
And the final check was completed today. It was confirmed that it was EV. So all I had to do was decide what to feed my daughter.
There was talk of checking with animals or other people before proceeding, but the parents couldn’t have much patience as they watched their daughter deteriorate day by day. ”
Anyway, the hypothesis that EVs are a group of mutant humans seems to be correct . “Hey.”
EVs disrupted the Internet so that no one could track them, and they had a better understanding of mutations than governments in other countries.
People had several hypotheses about EVs, and the hypothesis that gained the most support was that they were a group of mutants
. The medicine must have been made using the power of mutant humans or mutant monsters.”
In that case, if he drank this, he could become like the mutant humans who went crazy.
Many conflicts passed through his mind, but in the end, he was just my father.
He stood up holding the glass bottle. .
“Put the car on standby. “Let’s go to the hospital.”
“yes.”
Before he left the door, he asked his secretary.
“And did you say the delivery address was Hong Kong?”
“Yes.
” “First, prepare a few people. If anything goes wrong, you will have to pay the price.” “All right.”
After giving instructions, he left the chairman’s office with a stern face.
Fortunately, even after a few days, Chairman Boris did not send anyone to Hong Kong.
And Kyung-hoon was so caught up in work that he didn’t have time to worry about the delivery.
“I never thought there would be so much work. I haven’t had a single day of rest since I came to Hong Kong.”
Kyung-hoon massaged his neck as he entered the hotel room.
-It’s a ghost company, but it still involves creating a company and creating multiple accounts. There’s no way it won’t work.
“I thought I could just click on the Internet and that would be enough…
– Then, traces of being Korean will remain. It is best to make it locally.
Kyung-hoon raised both hands.
“Well, I left that up to you.”
-Thank you. So I prepared it for sure.
“It’s so clear that it’s almost like a disaster…”
Kyung-hoon sighed softly.
The talk of selling potions using EVs has become so big.
For safety reasons, we sent a delivery. Changing the country turned into a trip to Hong Kong, and creating an account for EV turned into creating a paper company. It was
necessary for the future, but it was inevitable that it would be difficult.
While working, Kyung-hoon admired Eve’s abilities . I couldn’t help but be amazed. Without her, there was nothing I could have done in Hong Kong. It
was clear that no ordinary person, or even a superior artificial intelligence, would have been able to do it like she did.
Moreover, I was able to help my family with the same disease as Mr. Jeong . Even finding rich people.
“How do they get all this information? Are they just hacking it?”
-I told you last time that it is difficult to break through security. I just searched search sites and famous communities.
She just responded calmly to Kyung-hoon’s praise.
-I looked for posts or photos posted by people with the same symptoms and found public information. We compared them with famous rich people posted on . In fact, there are probably more rich people that I couldn’t find.”
Eve said that if she had several people who knew each language, she could find enough people to
do it. However, it was amazing that she did so much work alone.
“Anyway, I was exhausted. But how much longer should I wait? “This work is almost finished.”
It was when Kyung-hoon was lying on the bed with his clothes on and complaining.
Ding dong.
An alarm rang on Kyunghoon’s cell phone.
– Money came into the account. It came from both Russia and Brazil.
Kyunghoon jumped out of bed.
He took out his phone and turned on the screen.
Account information appeared on the screen.
Rumble.
Kyunghoon’s eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
