From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

"Young master, are you really alright?" the guards asked after the chase with the two intruders.

"Did you manage to catch them?" Minjun asked.

The main guard looked down at the ground.

"No, young master. They went through a dark alleyway, and we lost them."

Minjun clicked his tongue before shaking his head, making the guards feel nervous.

"Maybe I should ask my mom to hire other guards," he muttered.

"Oh well," he said, looking up at them in his usual jolly attitude. "You can proceed with what you're doing."

"But, young master, we failed to see their faces because they were wearing masks. I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to catch them."

Minjun waved them off. "It's alright," he sighed. "Just go. I have something important to do!"

With that, he went back to typing on his tablet.

People just tried to rob him, but life must go on!

"Are you sure you've hired competent people?" Laohu asked as they waited for updates from Stan and Steve.

"I did," Lin Zhi said. "Those two are the most highly-rated in the black market."

Laohu narrowed his eyes in suspicion. "You toldto trust you on this, so I did, but why is it taking them so long to give us an update?"

"They should have finished the task by now. We've given them the whole of yesterday already.

Lin Zhi clicked his tongue in frustration as he stared at his phone.

"Where are they?" he muttered.

Just then, like the deities had heard his wishes, someone called Lin Zhi.

He looked at Laohu with a smug expression. "Just because it's delayed doesn't mean that they aren't competent. I did a great job choosing them."

Laohu sighed and waited for Lin Zhi to answer the call.

Lin Zhi quickly pressed the 'answer' button and placed it on the loudspeaker.

"Did you do it?" Lin Zhi excitedly asked.

"We're at the hospital," Stan said very cautiously as if he was afraid of getting scolded.

"Hospital?" Lin Zhi asked.

"Seoul Hospital," he vaguely answered before ending the call.

Laohu looked at Lin Zhi with raised eyebrows.

"I don't think they were able to do it," Laohu said. "You should have lethandle it."

Lin Zhi clicked his tongue before grabbing the car keys on the table.

"I'll handle it," Lin Zhi said, not wanting to be seen as incompetent. "You should continue gathering evidence against June. I'll handle finding out where the briefcase is."

"I don't know if I could trust your skills," Laohu said with a small smirk, causing Lin Zhi's face to harden.

"I can do it," Lin Zhi said with resolution. "I'll prove it to you."

With that, Lin Zhi left their loft to go to Seoul Hospital. He made sure to cover himself really well to make sure that nobody would recognize him.

Then, he walked briskly to the room that Steve had identified through text.

Lin Zhi entered the room and halted when he saw the current state that they were in.

"What the heck?" he muttered as he looked at their injured bodies.

There were contusions, bruises, and cuts all over their skin. Stan even had an eye patch on and a cast on his neck. Meanwhile, Steve's arm was in a sling while his legs were filled with multiple abrasions.

Lin Zhi couldn't believe his eyes.

He only sent them to threaten Minjun, injure him a bit, and have him deliver a letter to June that coerced him into telling them where the briefcase was.

However, why does it seem like they were mauled by a bear instead?

"Lin Zhi," Stan said as soon as he saw him.

"What the fuck happened?" Lin Zhi exclaimed in anger.

Stan and Steve looked down at the ground.

Lin Zhi sighed in frustration, so Steve quickly got to talking.

"We did as you said," Steve said. "We followed the kid to his hand was about to enter his house."

"However, their door had skind of mechanism that led it to spray acid on us," Steve said.

Lin Zhi frowned. "That's fucking ridiculous. Are you in HAlone or something? Why would their door have acid?"

"Right, HAlone!" Stan exclaimed in recognition. "That's what I've been thinking about all night long. It really did feel like we were in that movie."

Lin Zhi pursed his lips and raked his fingers through his hair.

"So, are you saying that you weren't able to do it?" he asked.

"We couldn't," Steve said. "There was no plausible way."

"I don't know what kind of industry his parents work in, but they seem to be very rich. Their bodyguards tailed us in no time."

Lin Zhi massaged his temples in frustration. He knew that Minjun was rich based on his dad's job, but it still didn't make sense how Stan and Steve were so beaten up like this.

"Fortunately, we were able to run away before they caught us," Steve continued.

"We would have been caught by the police if we didn't manage to lose them."

Lin Zhi clicked his tongue. "Then, why do you guys look like that? Don't tellyou got frustrated and started beating each other instead? I thought you were more competent than that."

"No," Stan said, shaking his head. "We thought that the kid only had bodyguards around his house."

"However, three strange men suddenly appeared. They were very strong, by the way. We didn't even stand the chance."

Lin Zhi's frown deepened in confusion.

"And who are those people?"

Stan and Steve turned to look at each other.

"We don't know."
