My Hitman System

Chapter 8: Shifting



'A school huh...' Jin wasn't very fond of the idea of working at a school because there would be a lot of variables with the children involved.

He searched for a bit more in other apps and found that he had no choice other than to work at that school if he wanted to stay there. All the other jobs asked for experience and he only had experience as a janitor which narrowed his scope of search.

'Bing High School' Jin searched about it on the internet. The school had a very good reputation. That explained why it wanted even the janitors to have at least 4 years of experience.

"If it's reputable then there won't be much of a problem...the salary's pretty good too," Jin thought to himself.

Jin had been in this cleaning business of cleaning since he was 17 years old so he easily qualified for the job. He applied for the job through the online portal and submitted his contact details.

'A letter of reference...alright,' He could ask his team leader's help with this one. Jin looked at the clock and it was half past ten. The team leader would be arriving by half past eleven so I should go early to see him.

With his mind made up, Jin left his home after getting ready. He discussed his intention of leaving the job to work in the city. The team leader was sometimes harsh at them when they didn't do their jobs properly but overall he was an understanding individual.

When Jin explained to him how he wanted to improve his circumstances by finding more opportunities in the city the team leader understood and helped him with the reference letter.

"You've been here for several years, and I thought that you were just wasting your potential here...it's good that you're going there. I wish you luck haha!" The team leader patted Jin's shoulder as he left towards the admin office to make his letter of reference.

Jin went on with his work as usual. In the evening he received a message to arrive at the school with the required documents the coming Sunday. By the end of the day, he was handed his reference letter by the leader in the changing room.

This invited a series of inquiries from his colleagues and they all cheered for him and wished him good luck. On asking when he would be leaving the job Jin said that it would most probably be by the end of this week.

Days kept on passing by and during these days the inquiry regarding the murders seemed to have settled. Jin learned from the word of mouth of others that the police were unable to find any clues and this would most likely end up as a cold case.

Jin was relieved after hearing this but he still didn't let down his guard. He was adamant about leaving this place and going far away from here as soon as possible.

Sunday arrived.

With his documents in hand, Jin went to the railway station to catch a train to Bing city. He arrived at the city by half past ten in the morning. He was told to report at the school at noon.

He had a light breakfast from the nearby store and asked the shopkeeper where Bing High School was from his current location.

The shopkeeper explained it to him and soon Jin left for the place. The place was only three kilometres away from here so Jin decided to go there on foot.

On the way, Jin looked around the city and couldn't help but feel pleasant. The environment here was more pleasant than the slums and he could live his life comfortably once again here.

The thought of the system often entered his mind but he shoved it aside. He should become a hitman just because a system wanted him to? Like hell, he would. He cherished his earlier comfortable life and had no intention of entering this grim path.

Around 30 minutes later Jin was at the school. Since it was a Sunday there were no students around and Jin easily made his way to the admin building and told them the reason for his arrival.

The staff present verified his documents thoroughly. Since it was a reputable school they weren't lax on the verification part even a bit. The whole process took about an hour and Jin was soon handed an ID.

"You can come to work starting tomorrow. The cleaning staff's room is room number 34 on the first floor. Report there by 8:00 AM. The supervisor will explain your work to you there and then you can start on with your work." The lady said after passing Jin his ID.

Jin glanced at his ID which had his photo and all the necessary information in it and nodded to the lady "Thanks,"

"You're welcome," She smiled back at him and carried on with her work.

Jin soon left the school building and started looking for houses which were on rent. The area nearby the school was very expensive so that was out of the question for him so he narrowed his search area to areas more than 5kms away from the school.

It was the age of the internet and everything could be found on the internet. After browsing the 'House on rent' application for half an hour he was able to find a suitable place for him. He immediately contacted the owner and discussed the contract with him.

All the necessary documentation was done by five in the evening and Jin handed the security money along with an advance for the next couple of months.

The rent in the city was naturally very high. Three-fourths of Jin's savings were now depleted as a result. Jin didn't mind it and travelled back home.

He had already packed all the necessary things he would be needing there. He didn't have a refrigerator or any other heavy appliances. The only expensive things he owned were his television and his mobile phone.

He only took the important stuff with him and all of them were arranged in a carton. The other stuff he buried them in his backpack. He planned to come back for television later when he got time.

After locking the door of his old house Jin went to the railway station to board the next train to Bing city along with his luggage.

He boarded the train and reached his rented place by 9 in the evening.
