My Hitman System

Jin surveyed the positions of the guards through the bug until late at night and noted their positions down before calling it a day.

Jin woke up on time like usual and finished with his routine and at 8 AM Dylan arrived at his home.

"Hmm? Why are you early? Isn't the shooting at ten?" Jin asked Dylan.

"I knew it would be like that. The shooting would start at 10 but you don't plan to do it with an appearance like that right? All actors need to be ready for the set, which means make-up and hair styling!" Dylan explained to the clueless Jin.

"Oh yeah…there was something like that too," Hearing Dylan's words clarity hit Jin. He had forgotten to take this into account.

"You had your breakfast yet?" Dylan asked.

"No, I didn't," Jin replied.

"That's good. We'll have it on the way so get ready. We're leaving now," Dylan said.

Jin took five minutes to dress up. He just put on a pair of trousers and complimented it with a jacket since he would need to change it as per his scene later on.

Soon he entered the cab along with Dylan and left for the studio.

While the cab was moving Dylan took out a tiffin from the bag he was carrying. The moment he opened the lid a mouth-watering smell wafted in the air making both Dylan's and Jin's mouth water.

"Here," Dylan passed one of the egg rolls to Jin.

"Thank you, it smells delicious," Jin commented and accepted the roll gratefully.

"Hehe, I know right? No matter how many times I try them I'll never get bored of my wife's cooking," Dylan said as he took the first bite and savoured it.

Seeing this Jin took a bite as well. The distinct taste of the egg along with that of several seasonings bombarded his taste buds and made him take another bite soon after.

"It's delicious right?" Dylan asked when he saw this.

"Mhmm" Jin nodded while still nibbling on the roll. After swallowing it Jin finally replied, "It's delicious! I must say my thanks to your wife,"

"Wait until this movie becomes a hit to tell her that, she would be even more glad to hear that from you then," Dylan remarked with a smile.

"I'll keep that in mind," Jin nodded seriously and focused back on the roll.

An hour later they arrived at the studio.

Dylan immediately took Jin to the makeup artist.

"You're finally here…" The makeup artist took a sigh of relief when he saw them. "If you hadn't arrived even after 5 minutes I was about to give you a call," The makeup artist said.

"Sorry for the delay," Dylan apologised and then said while looking at Dylan, "He'll be in your care then,"

"Got it, I'll do my best!" She said seriously and instructed Jin to change into the clothes he would be wearing for his scene.

Jin changed into a fresh pair of jeans and a light-coloured shirt. Luckily his clothes were simple since the storyline was like that.

Jin was then taken by the makeup artist and was made to sit in front of a makeup mirror.

From then on it was all a totally new experience for Jin. A variety of cosmetic products were applied to his face. His hair wasn't spared as well and by the end of everything Jin totally matched the image of a cheerful young street photographer.

When the clock struck ten the director arrived. He started giving his instructions to the film crew while the other actors were doing some last-minute touch-ups.

"You look great," Samantha said. She was done with her make-up and was all set to go.

"Thanks, but I don't like how uncomfortable my face feels," Jin replied to her.

"Haha, it do be like that. No worries you get used to it with time," Samantha chuckled after hearing him.

They chatted for a while before the shooting began.

The first scene was the introduction of a cheerful young photographer. So Jin became busy from the very first moment.

Although Jin performed well the director was very strict with him. It seemed like he was chasing perfection.

"Retake!"

Jin sighed when he heard it the 7th time and got ready for his scene.

It was not that Jin was fumbling over his lines or in acting. The problem was coming with his actions on stage which the director was correcting with each take.

This was a crucial learning experience for Jin as well so he was paying attention to all the pointers given by Mr. Douglas and he tried his best to implement them.

The eighth take finally met the director's expectations and Jin got a breather.

While being seated Jin saw the other actors perform. The director showed similar strictness with everyone. He wanted everything to be perfect.

"Don't make that face, you still have a couple more scenes to do," Samantha teased Jin when she saw his exhausted expression.

"Is filming always so hectic?" Jin asked.

"Yes, having second thoughts?" Samantha asked with a smile.

"Nah, the pay's good. You don't look exhausted though" Jib replied without much of a thought.

"When you become experienced like me, you'll be able to hide your exhaustion," Samantha joked.

"You really are a pro..." Jin replied with a chuckle.

"Aren't I?" Samantha agreed.

They passed time like this before it was finally their turn to act.

"It's time. Let's go then," Samantha said as she saw the director calling them for their scene.

"Alright"

....

The exhausting day ended at half past four as the tired film crew and the actors dragged themselves home.

After coming back to his room Jin took a short nap which lasted for two hours.

When he woke up he had his dinner and started practicing the pointers which the director had told him.

Jin noted it all down so that he would not forget about them.

Diana's message came at that time.

Jin then replied to Diana's message and chatted with her a bit before busying himself once again.

Until about 1:00 AM Jin surveyed the movement of the guards and noted any changes. The flight mode of the bug consumed more battery than normal so he was left with only 3 days of remaining charge.

He'll be using this time wisely since he didn't plan to alert the enemy when he enacted his plan. It was too early to make them wary.

By now Jin had drawn a rough map which he would be taking while infiltrating and had also marked the places where there were security cameras.

All that was left was to get familiar with the guard's patrolling pattern.

…

The sky brightened and it was the start of another new day.

Jin's schedule was the same as yesterday, however he had a couple more scenes than yesterday.

This meant more retakes…

'Sigh…well it's still better than cleaning the railway station for 20k Draks,' Jin thought while he waited for his scene to start.

Time passed on and by 5 an exhausted Jin left the studio. Today's shooting took much longer than expected.

After arriving at his room Jin laid down to relax. His eyes opened at 10 PM. Much later than his usual time.

'Was I this much exhausted?' Jin said to himself as he pushed himself up the bed and ordered his dinner.

His phone buzzed. Diana was calling. She always preferred to message him so this was unusual. With a furrowed expression Jin picked up the phone.

"Hello," Jin said.

"I finally heard your voice," Diana replied from the other side.

"What's with you all of a sudden? You said that you rarely called others and preferred to text instead," Jin asked.

"That's true…but I was missing your voice today…it's been sooo long since we last met so I wanted to hear it," Diana said from the other end while twirling her hair with her fingers.

"It's not even been a week though…only 5 days" Jin replied

"Five days is a lot you know? Do you know the number of times I thought of you during this time? It's more than how many fingers are there on my hand," Diana was more open than normal so Jin couldn't help but ask.

"Are you drunk?" He asked.

"See! You know me so well. I had a can of beer just now to let off some steam…" she said with a giggle.

"You-" Jin was about to say something but Diana interrupted him.

"Oh, I almost forgot! Let's meet tomorrow! It's very important so you can't say no. Got it?" Diana asked for confirmation.

"What's with this sudden meeting? You didn't tell me about it yesterday," Jin said

"Yesterday was yesterday. Today is today. It's different," She replied.

"But I haven't even told you whether I got work tomorrow or not. What if I have work tomorrow?" Jin said.

"…you got work on Sunday?" An uncertain voice came from the other side.

"Sigh.. luckily I don't. I'll come alright. Message me the details," Jin replied. He didn't feel like rejecting her after hearing her tone.

'It won't hurt meeting with her once more…' Jin thought

"Yay!" Diana cheered from the other side which brought a smile to Jin's face.

"You haven't answered my question yet though. What's the occasion tomorrow?" Jin asked.

"Hehe, I'll tell you about that tomorrow. I'm too tired now so I'll be hanging up now, good night Jin,"

"Wa-" Jin had more questions to ask her but Diana had hung up by then.

A minute later Jin received a text on his phone.

"Yuki Nursing Home, 11 AM. Be there on time ^^"

Jin read the text and a frown appeared on his face. He had no idea what was going on in Diana's mind.
