Lanok finally spoke after a moment of silence.

- Even the Intelligence Agency would have a hard time wiretapping this phone, and I reserved the hotel room myself, so this can only mean we have a traitor among us.

Kang Chan stood in front of the hotel entrance.

He genuinely wanted to catch the guy even if he had to run up the emergency stairs, but it was best to act calmly in this situation.

“There’s a chance he was actually after me, but Sharlan wouldn’t insist on starting something with me right now.”

- You wouldn’t fail to recognize someone who has undergone special training. Was that person perhaps Asian?

“Yes.”

Lanok sounded calm again, like his original self.

- Even the embassy can’t be free from wiretapping. I think it’s best we look for a different meeting place.

“Then the enemy could try staging a car accident during transportation.”

- There are very few places in downtown Seoul where crashing into my bulletproof Mercedes can instantly kill me, Monsieur Kang.

He sounded at ease as if he was talking about someone else’s matters.

- Please reserve a new room, Monsieur Kang. I’ll be heading over to the Namsan Hotel now. I’d prefer it if we go up to the room together...
