NUNEW'S POV 

- Show me those sweet boys. Jeff, you did great job, but now leave us alone for a moment. I want to check their skills personally. - P'Aof kicked Jeff out of the room.

- What the heck are you doing here?! Natasitt?! NuNew?! - The manager yelled at us as soon as Jeff left the room. Neither I nor Nat had any idea what was really going on here.

- You're lucky you came today and not tomorrow, because tomorrow you would be talking to the second owner, and believe me, that day you would remember for a long time. If you were to come here tomorrow, it would end with NuNew being tied to the bed with chains. Trust me, Nhu, Yoon isn't a gentle person. He doesn't even know that there is such a thing as lubricant, instead he has a really large collection of leather straps and whips. I suspect you wouldn't want to feel them on your own skin, and you, Nat... I may be wrong, but it seems to me that you'd want to experience your first time with someone you love, not with a vibrator at maximum speed in your backside, hot wax poured on your body, and a gag placed in your mouth... This is exactly how Yoon recruits new employees. He takes great pleasure in pushing their boundaries to the limit... - P'Aof rested his hands on his forehead, trying to calm down.

- What am I supposed to do with you, huh? - He asked helplessly.

- I have no idea how to handle this now. - Aof muttered to himself, shaking his head from side to side.

- You've put me in a huge mess. After the interview, we always sign a one-day trial contract, which you must fulfill. Yoon is in charge of the VIP lodge, I prefer not to get involved and simply turn a blind eye to whatever he's up to. Jeff's task is to search for new dancers and hosts. Upon entering this room, you're automatically employed. Even if you wanted to refuse now, you can't. You must appear at the club tomorrow evening for a trial day... - Aof looked sadly into the empty space behind us, avoiding making direct eye contact.

- NuNew, Nat... Listen, there's something I haven't told you before. I lead a double life. I'm a special agent, as well as one of Kilen's partners. By joining the gang and working undercover, I managed to put many bad people in prison. I have valuable contacts and guaranteed protection, which are very helpful in my work. You made a mistake coming here. I can send you home, but Jeff won't let you leave. If Jeff claims he's found some cute boys, he won't miss the chance to receive praise from the boss. I suspect that Jeff has already informed Yoon about the new employees. Jeff always sends Yoon the best guys, so I know Yoon won't give up on you until he sees what are you capable of... So what do we have to do now... I'll tell Jeff that Natasitt is a great dancer, but NuNew doesn't even know how to do a blowjob. As a result, both of you will end up on stage tomorrow, not on the knees of some sleazy, older men. The club's dancers are protected, and no one has the right to touch them, so you don't need to be afraid of that. After tomorrow's performance, I will conclude that you're not generating the necessary profits, and I don't want you here. I handle the finances in Kilen, so when I say that the clients aren't interested, it will mean that the club is not profiting from your presence, and you will be able to go home.

- P'! Why the bitter words? I happen to be excellent at giving blowjob! Ask Zee if you don't believe me! - I got offended hearing the insult from the manager's mouth.

- Nhu, P'Aof wants to defend us. I'm so scared... - Nat grabbed my hand.

- And what would happen if we didn't come here tomorrow evening? What would be the consequences? - I asked him provocatively.

- Don't even think about it, please! If you say no, Yoon would come to you personally and use force to relocate you to the club. He shows no mercy. Only one boy has ever defied him. I think you already know his name. Neo is the main attraction at Kilen. Yoon has turned him into his personal whore. I can't remember the last time when Neo left the club's building. You could say that he practically lives here and works as a bitch 24 hours a day. Yoon is a really bad person but there's someone even worse than him. Drug trafficking, arms dealing, and prostitution... The worst murders, thefts, and robberies... It's all the work of one man, and that man happens to be Yoon's cousin. I believe that with a little help from Yoon, one day I'll reach the leader of the biggest gang. This club is just a facade. Kilen is nothing compared to the true evil. I've already told you what Yoon is like, so please... One night with an oiled torso, no underwear, dancing to the music... Nobody will let you onto the pole, because you have no experience. And for a lap dance, you would have to give consent first. Probably a little striptease, maybe dancing in a cage... Oh my goodness! I'm so embarrassed! I should never have asked you for something like this. I'm a really lousy manager. I'm done... - P'Aof hung his head and started crying.

- P' you're alright? - Nat approached the desk with a worried look on his face and sat in the chair next to him.

- Nat! Nothing is okay! Imagine that I have been conducting this investigation for years. You know what's best? That this case should have been closed a long time ago due to the lack of a main suspect. I'm here for a reason, and being involved in this club's business isn't just a coincidence. Over the years, I've made the right connections and I'm close to finding out the truth and catching the criminal. I have evidence, fake bills, and contracts, and I even know his name. But what's the point, when the guy literally vanished into thin air? It's messed up that someone managed to erase his face from all the internet. We have an old photo of him, but he was very young then. Police sketches and algorithms didn't help. The only thing that turned out to be helpful was a video from a specific accident scene. The video may be old, but it clearly shows the license plate numbers of Yoon's cousin's car. This car is obviously stolen, but one person from the garage confessed that it's his boss's car. The mechanic also mentioned that the boss doesn't let anyone else drive his car, so there's a good chance it was him behind the wheel that day. Every day my people try to find this car and its owner, but as you can probably guess - without success. We tried everything to find out what mafia's boss looks like, but his face still remains a mystery...

- P' if you want, you can tell us about it. We stand by your side.

- This is complicated and risky, but I promised myself that I'll put the criminal behind bars, no matter the costs I have to bear.

- What about the police?

- The police were very committed at the beginning. As time went on, they dropped the case. You know... I still have that video, I can't shake it off. It shows the entire accident, providing a clear image of the victim and the car's license plate. Unfortunately, the camera didn't catch the culprit's face. We only know that he was driving recklessly, like a drunk maniac, and ended up killing a teenager.

- Do you have that video with you? - Nat asked him. P'Aof turned on his laptop and showed us the recording...
