I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 221
Episode 22
“Wow, this is awesome. “You are truly a noble person.”
“Wow, something like this happens.”
“They say you can become the person you want to be!”
Amidst the outpouring of admiration, Hyunji Lee just smiled quietly.
“It went really well! “I heard the salary is very high!”
“that’s right. I heard welfare is good too. “I knew you could join the company through an internal employee recommendation system, but you’re recommending it to complete strangers like this.”
Kim So-yeon and Choi Ye-eun made a fuss and gave their congratulations.
After that, Minji Kim shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth.
“I know. It went really well. I was a little sad inside because I thought he went first by digging for another job search route without my knowledge, but it really was a sudden job search. Wow, I’m jealous. If everything goes well later, I’ll bet on it. Understand?”
“of course. “You too will find a job soon.”
“Thank you for your words.”
Hyun-ji Lee offered a well-wishes to Kim Min-ji, who was unable to hide her feeling of emptiness because a colleague she was preparing for a job with had left, as if she felt sorry.
With the congratulations and encouragement of her friends, Hyeonji Lee finally reached her first day of work.
The excitement and anxiety of my first day at work plagued my mind all morning, so I almost ended up being late on the first day.
As I arrived near the company on a bus on an unfamiliar route, I saw office workers walking busily.
‘Am I also an office worker starting today?…’
The early morning air felt very refreshing for the first time in a long time since high school.
My heart trembled just thinking about what kind of people I would meet and what kind of work I would do at the company.
The sidewalk blocks that seemed cleaner and more organized than before, the morning sunlight that seemed to shine even brighter, and even the wind that brushed my cheeks seemed new.
When I thought that the largest and most flashy building in the distance was my company, everything about this moment felt so wonderful.
Lee Hyun-ji, who was walking and enjoying this moment, suddenly felt that the atmosphere around her was strange.
Everyone who was walking ahead of them was glancing at the road from time to time.
As it happened to be a time when cars were at a traffic light, Lee Hyun also turned his eyes to follow the people’s gaze.
What was there was a sports car with an awesome design.
Even at first glance, it looked incredibly expensive.
It was definitely not a commonly seen type of car, so it was understandable that people would stare.
But this time it was for a slightly different reason.
‘Beginner driving?’
Since I was a novice driver who was definitely not suitable for a sports car, a large piece of white paper was stuck on the rear windshield.
Moreover, the paper was fluttering slightly every time the wind blew, as it had been put on the outside rather than the inside.
‘There are all kinds of people in the world…’
The cars in front and behind the sports car were strangely far away.
Even if I hadn’t been ticketed for being a novice driver, I think it would have been similar.
If you accidentally hit that car, you may have to pay for the car’s door since traffic accidents are rarely concluded as one party’s fault.
When the light changed again, cars started driving along the road.
Normally, I would have taken a picture and showed it to my friends, but today is my first day at work.
Although Hyunji Lee thought it was an interesting sight to see, she soon began walking towards the company in front of her with a nervous expression.
‘This is Dungeon Management….’ This
is a huge building that was built in their place after four huge buildings in the middle of Gangnam, Seoul were demolished.
Compared to other buildings, the height of each floor was very high.
Of course, the architectural design was designed with the height of the dungeon residents in mind.
Hyunji Lee stood in front of the building and briefly checked the time.
‘Did you come too early? I wonder if there’s a cafe nearby….’
I deliberately left about an hour early to avoid getting lost on the first route, and ended up arriving about 40 minutes before the promised commute time.
While I was wondering how to spend my time, the company lobby came into view through the glass of the building.
Since the first floor was a space open to all customers visiting the company, Hyunji Lee decided to go inside the company and wait.
‘Wow, is this a hotel or a company?’
Twinkling lights from a gorgeous chandelier.
The luxurious sofas and spacious hall were as beautiful as a palace.
In addition, the building’s unique high ceiling created an even more special atmosphere.
There was also a cafeteria on one side of the expensive-looking art pieces placed here and there.
It appears that breakfast is being served, and several employees who arrived early were seen casually lining up to receive their food and sit down at the table.
Hyeonji Lee felt somewhat intimidated.
It was also burdensome to mix with people who looked like employees.
She wandered around hesitantly and found a vending machine in the corner next to the elevator.
‘There is no one. Okay, I’ll hide here until rush hour and then call the person in charge.’
When I went to work in the morning, I was supposed to call the assigned human resources staff member and receive guidance.
However, it may have been 10 minutes before work, but now it is 40 minutes. I had to wait at least 30 minutes.
‘By the way, this company also has a vending machine. There’s no way anyone would use a vending machine when there’s such a nice cafeteria. I understand there is no one here. Fortunately for me, though.’
The reason I joined this company was because of the vending machine.
Feeling a strange connection, Hyunji Lee went to the vending machine and began to choose a drink.
There was a wide variety of vending machines, from selling simple breakfast salads to coffee from an espresso machine that squeezed fresh fruit directly into juice.
Of course, there were vending machines selling regular canned drinks.
‘That one seems expensive, so let’s choose this one.’
The drink selection was good, but there was one problem.
The bill slot was not visible. I looked for a card reader to see if I could buy it with a card, but I couldn’t find anything similar.
“What’s the problem?”
As Lee Hyun-ji was wandering in front of the vending machine in confusion, someone’s voice was heard from behind.
I turned around without thinking and saw a woman with a very good-natured appearance.
He seemed to be roughly the same age as himself.
Hyunji Lee guessed that she was either his classmate or close superior.
Anyway, we might end up working together in the future.
Not wanting to ruin the first impression, Hyunji Lee bowed her head for now.
“Oh hello. “I can’t see where to put the money.”
“Money?”
The woman tilted her head in confusion, approached quickly, looked back at the vending machine, and smiled knowingly at Hyeonji Lee.
“Is this your first day at work today?”
“yes. “I arrived a little early, so I thought I would have something to drink and wait until the guide arrived.”
“I see. “What do you want to drink?”
“Oh, I want this…”
When she pointed to a drink with her finger, the woman smiled again and pressed the corresponding drink button twice.
Then, without even putting money in, two cans of drinks fell down the drain with a clatter.
“Here .” “I want to drink this sometimes. It’s very sweet, so I don’t drink it often, but I think it’s perfect when I want something sweet.”
What Lee Hyun-ji chose was an extremely sweet and rich chocolate canned drink.
It was exactly what Hyun-ji Lee needed right now, as she hadn’t even had breakfast and her blood sugar was dropping due to nervousness as it was her first day at work.
‘I guess I didn’t put any money in it.’
As if reading Hyunji Lee’s realization, the woman continued with a smile on her face,
“All the facilities on the first floor, including the cafeteria, are provided free of charge to visitors, so feel free to use them.”
“For all visitors? Is that okay?”
“What?”
“If you offer something for free, wouldn’t a lot of people who are difficult to deal with come to visit?”
Hyunji Lee, who had worked part-time at a cafe, used the word ‘truth.’
However, when asked that question, the woman opened her eyes and burst into laughter.
“No way. Where is this place?”
Lee Hyeon-ji came to a realization in response.
The first floor was decorated comfortably like a hotel, so he had forgotten about it for a while, but this was a dungeon management area full of monsters, not dungeon people, and hunters and strongmen who were comparable to them. Neither force nor power
. If you cause trouble in a place where there are people at the top of society, the result is obvious.
Lee Hyun-ji, who knows from experience how good it is to know whether a place is worth spreading or not, nodded in understanding.
At that time, behind her back , A new voice was heard:
“Oh, boss. You came to work early?”
Lee Hyun-ji froze for a moment, unable to understand what he was saying.
So, this person in front of me is the president of Dungeon Management. In
other words, Son Moa Hunter?
Even after leaving Lee Hyun-ji alone in a panic, the person began to lightly say good morning.
Lee Hyun-ji said , It wasn’t that I didn’t know Hunter Moa’s face.
However, the image of Son Moa that appeared in the media was processed for public use and was decorated to the fullest.
When I met her in such comfortable clothes, it was hard to recognize her immediately.
After hearing it, it was definitely Son Moa Hunter.
