The Mysterious Art Museum

Chapter 17 (2) - The Mysterious Art Museum

The next day, 9:40 a.m. in front of MG Electronics headquarters.

I came to Yeouido for the first time.

Unless you're a celebrity, a politician, or someone who works here, there's only one reason to visit Yeouido. Cherry blossom festival. But I've never been to a cherry blossom festival in my life. I didn't have the luxury.

I took the bus that came to Yeouido by searching the internet and arrived a little early. I looked up at the MG Electronics headquarters building that seemed to pierce the sky. I feel overwhelmed just by looking at the building.

Then, someone called me from behind.

"Mr. Ban Jeong-hoon?"

I was surprised by the sudden appearance of my name and turned around. Lee Soo-young, who was on her way to work, was wearing a suit, a coat, and a bag.

"Hello."

"Ah, you came early."

"I happened to come a little early."

"That's a good habit. Well, shall we go in together?"

Lee Soo-young got my temporary pass from the information center and said as we got on the elevator.

"The design department is on the 8th floor of the new building. Your pass only allows you to enter the 8th floor, so keep that in mind."

"Yes, but what should I call you?"

"Just call me Deputy Lee."

Deputy. She looks like my age, but she's a deputy in this big company. I'm a little jealous.

We got off the crowded elevator and came out to the quiet 8th floor corridor. Lee Soo-young knocked on the door of the chief designer's office and said.

"Monica, sei stata al lavoro?(Monica, are you at work?)"

Monica's voice came from inside.

"si entra.(Yes, come in.)"

Lee Soo-young pushed the door and looked at me.

"Let's go in."

The office was huge, about 30 square meters, with only one desk.

There was a sofa and a small cafeteria in the empty space, and pictures were neatly hung on the wall. I saw it briefly yesterday, but Monica had a very sophisticated taste and decorated her office cozy, chic, and clean.

Monica, who was wearing a red suit and drinking coffee by the window, saw me and smiled.

"Do you speak English?"

What, you only spoke Italian.

"Yes, I do."

"Good, sit down. Coffee?"

"No, I'm fine."

I sat down on the sofa next to Lee Soo-young and straightened my back. I can't help but be nervous because there's a huge amount of money at stake depending on what I do now.

Monica went to the desk and brought two papers. I swallowed my saliva as I saw the papers she was bringing from afar.

One is the picture I submitted to the contest, and the other is the portrait I drew.

Monica laid the two papers in front of me and looked at me sharply and said.

"Let me be blunt, I can't believe that these two pictures are by the same painter."
