Chapter 354
Chapter 354 Tragedy of group assignments (3)
Kang Tae-soo is a sophomore in the Department of Virtual Reality Engineering at Seomin University.
He has lived a blessed life since he was young.
He has a father who is the president of a mid-sized company that is well-recognized in the industry and a mother who is a prosecutor at the Seoul District Prosecutor’s Office. On top of that, Tae-soo has lived a so-called upper-class life since he was a child, as the family itself belonged to a family with a lot of money and connections.
money is money.
power is power.
A blessed family environment where nothing is lacking.
In addition, thanks to his good-looking appearance and superior height to other peers, he was noticed everywhere and boasted a prominent presence.
[As expected, Tae-soo is amazing!]
[Hey, Tae-soo, actually, I've liked you since before!]
[Ho-ho-ho! Tae-soo is always trustworthy.]
A child who has been loved by everyone from elementary school to classmates and teachers. Because he had received that much love from a very young age, it eventually returned to him as poison.
[What's wrong with you?]
[Insignificant bastards..... How dare you not even know the subject...?]
[Insignificant things in the family. In front of whom are you attacking?]
Tae-soo goes beyond a reasonable level of self-esteem and self-confidence and falls into arrogance, conceit, and narcissism.
In this way, while acting as an exemplary student on the outside, behind the scenes, he dominated the entire school as a vicious and cruel devil-like being.
Tae-soo, who never reveals his true identity, manipulates others with money and power behind the scenes, and achieves what he wants. That's why even after he entered university, he maintained a smooth relationship with the limbs who thoroughly followed him during his school days.
thud. thud. thud. thud.
An intense and heavy beat that makes your heart pound the moment you hear it. And a super-large club in Gangnam where many young men and women are dancing with flashy lasers and lights. Tae-soo, who penetrated the large stage, soon found a group of people already drinking heavily in the top-notch room on the upper floor.
“Oh Tae-soo. I'm here?”
“Hey... It’s been a while, hasn’t it?”
“You said you were going to university, but now it’s hard to even meet your face?”
High school alumni smirking at his appearance. However, Tae-soo had never once thought of those who were drunk as friends even before he arrived, drinking the best liquor with a blushing face and pouring out all sorts of obscene and disgusting obscenities.
‘As expected... they're still beast-like bastards who don't have anything in their head...'
Humans at such a pitiful level that it's embarrassing that they went to the same school. However, Tae-soo did not express any of those things and smiled as if he was glad to see them.
“How have you been?”
“Okay~. Hey, how well are we doing these days?”
“We are no longer a class that steals pocket money from kids with dirty noses! cancer!”
“Taesoo, you bastard, didn’t you pull a private loan and pick out a foreign car this time? You really are crazy.”
“Hehehe... Hey, you shouldn’t call it a loan. You just borrowed it from my older brother.”
Alumni who are not ashamed of telling all kinds of pathetic and low-quality stories that they don't want to know or hear. However, it was because of their background that Tae-soo did not even show all of that and continued to maintain a relationship with these scumbags.
“Oh Tae-soo. Come to think of it, my eldest brother said he was going to meet you, so he asked us to say his regards. Ask your father to contact you anytime if anything happens.”
Dongmyeongpa, the biggest gang in Korea, active in Seoul.
Tae-soo naturally nodded when he heard that the boss of the Dongmyeong faction asked about his father.
“Well... I want to say thank you. Recently, there has been no major promotion related to redevelopment, so it seems that my father has nothing to contact.
Tae-soo's father, who mobilized a large number of Dongmyeong-pa's gang members as a forced demolition service during the original redevelopment period, and easily handled the job. However, since the large-scale construction project Underworld promoted by Ajin Construction began, most of the mega-projects such as reconstruction or the construction of large-scale apartment complexes had been completely stopped, so it was true that the relationship was a little more distant than the close relationship at that time.
“Cheuk ..... Yes. He didn't say anything, but apparently he noticed that your mother seemed to have something to ask of you.”
“okay....? Have you had any accidents lately?”
Tae-soo tilts his head and asks a question from a friend who said that he has something to ask of his mother, who is the chief prosecutor of the Seoul District Prosecutor's Office. But my friend shrugged his shoulders as if that wasn't the case.
“It's nothing big... There's been a few kids recently caught by cops selling some drugs. Maybe don't delve into it too deeply and ask them to finish it as quietly as the caught guys, or something like that.”
Those who go beyond providing illegal service gangsters and rush at anything that makes money, such as drug trafficking, smuggling, and loan fraud. So, to Dongmyeong-pa, Tae-soo was no different from an important being who did not dare to be treated carelessly.
Republic of Korea is a society where you can do anything if you have money and power.
Therefore, Tae-soo, who has both of them, was a valuable customer to them, and a partner and companion who needed to maintain a smooth and close relationship for the future.
And it was the same for Tae-soo.
One day, he will inherit his father's company and become the president of a mid-sized construction company with hundreds of billions of won in capital. So, if you think about your future, you need to continue to maintain this friendly relationship with Dongmyeongpa.
‘How far can these bastards really go up in the organization...' They are
just mediocre scoundrels with nothing to offer, but they are faithful dogs who listen to anything they say. So Tae-soo held out his cup with a smile, thinking that it was necessary to give them strength.
“okay. Don't worry, I'll tell you everything well.”
“Big. Taesoo too! Shoot it!”
“loyalty! loyalty!”
“Let's drink! drink!”
“For our eternal friendship! Cheers!”
People who drink liquor that costs hundreds of thousands of won a bottle like drinking water, drink to their heart's content without worrying about money, and talk about all sorts of nonsensical things. By the time the atmosphere is in full swing as they talk about all kinds of old stories. A friend asked Tae-soo with twinkling eyes.
“ah. Come to think of it, Tae-soo, do you have a girlfriend?”
“girl friend?”
“uh. Back in high school, who were you... You only chased after a girl named Chaeyeon.”
“that's right. Tae-soo, this kid has a good-looking face and a good body, so he received a lot of confessions from famous girls around him, but in the end he rejected them all, right?”
“Looking at it, Tae-soo is a pretty innocent man, right? If you're like me, it's just very...”
“Hahaha. What's with that gorilla-like face? Wake up, you bastard.”
A story that quickly passed by in the midst of loud laughter. However, Tae-soo, listening to their stories, quietly tilted his glass at once with a distorted face.
‘??? ???..... ?? ?? ? ?? ??? ????? ? ???'
Chaeyeon Jeon.
When he first met Chae-yeon, who had been his classmate since high school, Tae-soo had no interest in her.
It's true that it looks pretty, but it's only a little better than normal. Her appearance was not so outstanding that it was comparable to that of a celebrity, so in the eyes of Tae-soo, it was enough to be overlooked.
But...
After overhearing her homeroom teacher talking to someone on the school rooftop by chance one day, Tae-soo started to hang around, only looking for a chance to get involved with Chae-yeon. She thoroughly tramples on all the men who have feelings for her, and always pretends to be the perfect boyfriend in front of Chae-yeon.
‘If only Chaeyeon's background could be utilized properly... I could inflate my father's company dozens of times more than it is now.'
She looks like an ordinary student on the outside, but she has a background that she dares not touch. It was so strange that no one noticed this fact until now, Tae-soo did his best to please her by any means and methods from then on.
But...
despite the governor's efforts, the results were not very good.
[Um..... I'm sorry, but Tae-soo, I want to meet someone who makes my heart pound.]
Despite numerous confessions, Chae-yeon always rejected and pushed herself away. And at that time, Tae-soo realized for the first time that the woman he was aiming for was different from normal people a little... no, very much different from what he thought.
[A confession that no one has ever received! I don't want to meet someone who just confesses like that.]
Chaeyeon is strangely obsessed with confessing her love. Tae-soo, who had a hard time against her iron wall. And with the recent appearance of a strong competitor, the situation was becoming more and more complicated.
[Hehehe..... Chae Yeon-ah! What are you doing?]
[Hehe..... Chae Yeon-ah ho.... Would you like to have lunch with me if you have time?]
When I was in the same high school as Tae-soo, I was one of the victims who dared to fall in love with Chae-yeon and harassed and trampled her to a vicious level. former classmate.
Jaekyun Lim.
When I met Jaekyun again at Seomin University. At first, Tae-soo thought of him as not even his competitor. However, as the worm-like being grew rapidly into a being with more and more powerful influence, Tae-soo began to feel nervous.
‘Does that worm-like perverted stalker dare... go after my woman?'
Strictly speaking, we are not dating yet, but he thinks he has already passed on to himself. So Tae-soo drank a glass of wine in a row out of anger at Jae-gyun, who ignorant of the subject and over-indulged in things he shouldn't have.
Tae-soo's mood suddenly changed. And the friends who sensed it soon looked at him with curious eyes and asked carefully.
“Hey... Taesoo, what’s wrong?”
“Why are you suddenly like this?”
An ordinary family with no money or power. On top of that, Jaekyun was a pitiful worm-like being with no abilities or anything. However, the fact that he became an artist praised and loved by people all over the world was not a fact that Tae-soo's arrogant pride could easily accept.
‘He's just a sneaky pervert who can't do anything without virtual reality technology.'
Virtual Reality Arcadia.
While repeating his intense self-justification that everything he had achieved was just luck born in the times, Tae-soo suddenly realized that six faithful dogs were staring at him, waiting for his command right in front of his eyes. And Tae-soo smiled at a thought that suddenly passed through his head.
“Hey... Come to think of it, I also have a favor to ask of you...”
A loach that keeps interfering between Chaeyeon and her relationship, soiling the water and disturbing it.
Thinking of a good way to solve this unsolvable problem, Tae-soo asked them for a magic trick with a cold face.
“Do you guys know how to quietly disappear without anyone knowing?”
It's a magic trick that kills people.
