The Famous Millionaire

Chapter 274

The next day...

“Wake up! It’s already past 9 am,” said Yu Zuung, shaking Hyunwoo by the shoulder to wake him up.

Hyunwoo wanted to postpone work today.

In fact, he had no morning schedule because Yu Zuung was free even in the afternoon today. So, he decided to make no appointment in the morning.

But Yu Zuung was stubborn.

“I’ve got to stop by the office. I’ve got a great animation idea. Let’s hurry up.”

“You’re so annoying. You can do it later.”

He wanted to spend more time with her, but she was greedy about her work.

Even though she was busy with entertainment activities, she was also still interested in animation characters. So, she drew them whenever she had free time.

Suddenly, he recalled Suji. Just like Hyunwoo wanted to enjoy quality time with Yu Zuung, Suji also wanted it with him.

But Hyunwoo didn’t make time for that. If either Hyunwoo and Suji had adjusted their schedule to the other, they would have continued their relationship, but they didn’t.

After all, they broke up.

Hyunwoo felt the same misfortune could come to him and Yu Zuung.

In fact, Yu Zuung made many more concessions than Hyunwoo. Whenever she decided on her broadcasting schedule, she asked for his opinion and never raised any objection.

Now, it was his turn to make concessions.

Hyunwoo finally got out of bed and got up.

“Got it. Let’s have breakfast first.”

“Why don’t we have bean sprout hangover soup? I would like to have it.”

“Sure, I was thinking of it, too. I see great minds think alike, hahaha.”

They went to a restaurant specializing in bean sprout hangover soup. As Hyunwoo and Yu Zuung were quite well known to the public, they felt it burdensome to hide their faces with sunglasses and hats, but they felt happy because they were moving together.

After they had breakfast, they headed for the Ani & Funny office.

It was very rare that Yu Zuung stopped by the Ani & Funny office as she was on a very tight TV schedule. So, she visited once every two or three months.

On such occasions, the staff welcomed her enthusiastically. As they had to speak in English, they couldn’t make themselves understood in the past, but as Yu Zuung’s Korean had improved a lot, they could now communicate with her without much difficulty.

“Oh, welcome, Yu Zuung!”

“Come on in. Nice job these days!”

The students welcomed her in their own unique manner.

“Sister, I need your autograph.”

“Please take a picture with me, sister.”

She didn’t refuse their request. She freely signed autographs and posed with them.

It took about ten minutes for them to welcome her back in the Ani & Funny office.

Only then did Yu Zuung show them the animation characters she had drawn.

Myunghun and Jihun showed great interest in them and exclaimed for joy.

“Wow, your sense of characters is really amazing.”

“Oh, this is so interesting. How did you have come up with this idea?”

“I think we can use this immediately.”

Both of them competitively praised her as if they wanted to curry favor with her.

Hyunwoo tried to sound out their feelings.

“Hey, don’t try to gain favor with her. Just tell me your own frank opinion. I don’t want to ruin the animation works by using wrong characters.”

Raising their hands, both balked.

“No, this is awesome!”

“Yea, that’s right. No matter how much time you spend on it, you can’t necessarily turn out a good piece. Sometimes, an idea you hit on all of a sudden can bring you fortune. I think Yu Zuung’s works are like that.”

As if to prove her Korean language skills, she said in Korean, “Do you really think so?”

“You bet. This is going to hit gold.”

“Wow, I’m thrilled to hear that. Let’s get down to work right now.”

Yu Zuung was so happy to hear their praise that she showed great enthusiasm.

Hyunwoo suddenly felt he was the odd man out as Yu Zuung and the staff focused on the animation characters.

Giggling at them, Hyunwoo thought to himself, Yea, I might as well leave the office now, so they can work better.

He slipped out of the office and headed for Haenim School.

When he arrived there, he noticed his father looking around the container house here and there.

Duyoung kept some secret files on green oil there. So, nobody could get in without his approval.

It was the same for Taeho and Kuroda. They had their own container and used it to keep their secret materials. They didn’t allow anybody access to it.

The only exception was Hyunwoo. Only Hyunwoo could gain access to Duyoung’s container.

Hyunwoo approached the container where his father was hovering.

“Dad, what are you doing there?”

“It looks like somebody has been here. Have you?”

At that moment, Hyunwoo’s eyes glared sharply. For there were only who could come over here, namely he and his father.

“Why? Was the door left open?”

“No, it was locked.”

“Was anything stolen inside?”

“Nothing. But I feel something strange. Some things have been misplaced.”

Duyoung had sharp eyes for things. He didn’t handle anything carelessly.

Even now he carefully examined the padlock of the container. Instead of touching it, he examined it with his eyes only.

“I usually lock the door and then move the padlock to the right. As most people are right-handed, the padlock is most likely moved to the left after they touch it.”

Hearing his father’s explanation, Hyunwoo examined the direction of the padlock. He saw it had been moved to the left.

If Duyoung did it by mistake or Hyunwoo touched it, somebody else might have touched it.

“Didn’t you check anything missing inside yet?”

“I just got here. Let me go inside now.”

Duyoung unlocked the door and went in. He first looked around the office as a whole.

In Hyunwoo’s eyes, there was nothing unusual.

But Duyoung made frowned immediately.

“It’s as I expected. Somebody must have unlocked the door and come inside.”

“Did you notice anything suspicious?”

“I don’t put the computer keyboard into the drawer completely, but it’s on the drawer now. And the computer mouse...”

Duyoung pointed to things one by one.

Obviously, somebody broke in and took some secret material.

Hyunwoo didn’t need to ask who was responsible.

“This time Singyong blatantly stole it. What did they steal?”

Hyunwoo asked in an annoyed voice, but his father made a calm expression as if he had expected it, and went into the room, saying, “Well, Isn’t it too clear what material they wanted to steal? Let me take a look.”

As soon as Duyoung went into a secret room where his research material was kept, he opened an auxiliary drawer. He locked the drawer, but the padlock was also moved to the left.

He frowned to open the drawer.

“I knew it. They stole No. 17 material about Super Green.”

“I doubt it was your genuine material.”

“Of course, it was not. I just wrote down the title like that, but the contents of the material are completely different. Maybe the guy who broke into this place didn’t know that. Thanks for warning me in advance.”

In fact, the secret material room of the container was intended as a window-dressing from the beginning. If somebody wanted to steal Duyoung’s research material, they would think to take it from that room.

In fact, Duyoung kept his real experiment material in the basement of his house, though he kept the experiment tools in the lab.

So, there was no chance that Duyoung would have his research material stolen like before.

Naturally, Hyunwoo and Duyoung were never disturbed by the fact that somebody broke into the secret material room.

But Duyoung had a worried expression.

“I’m a bit concerned.”

“Why?”

“As for the material they stole, it’s rather dangerous. If they handle it wrong, it can lead to a very large explosion.”

“I doubt it could kill people.”

“If they experiment in bulk, it can kill people. But if they do so in small quantities, it won’t. They will get only lots of soot.”

When Duyoung thought as far as that, he began to giggle all of a sudden.

Hyunwoo asked with a curious look,

“Why are you giggling?”

“You know Musik Choi, CEO of Singyoung. I just hope he can participate in the experiment and get burned. Haha.”

Hyunwoo also felt gratified, thinking that the experiment would serve him right.

But there was little possibility that Munsik would be injured.

“As you know, they are all experts in this field. I don’t see there is any problem. I wonder if they can do the experiment in Munsik’s presence.”
