Chapter 362 Fear of Power (4)
Dongmyeong Clan who tried to kidnap and kill the president's granddaughter.
However, their heinous atrocities were not known to the world.
[Next news. Last night, a surprise clean-up operation was carried out against a criminal organization called Dongmyeong-pa. The police are concentrating their efforts on investigating additional crimes, saying that it was confirmed that the organization had smuggled drugs in large quantities from China during the recent investigation into new drugs circulating in Seoul.
A full-scale search and seizure was carried out. According to an anonymous prosecution official, this search and seizure is to secure evidence of illegal activities related to the redevelopment project in the Gangnam area promoted by Yuhan Construction two years ago...]
A lot of blood and dirty filth smeared all over the body. There were so many evil deeds that they could not hide even if they tried to hide them, so soon after the prosecution and the police started investigating them, when their heinous criminal acts were revealed one by one, the whole country started to shake.
“Wow..... So, the construction company got involved with the gangsters, killed the president of the competitor without even knowing, and swallowed the company itself?”
“Aren’t you crazy bastards? They bribed the official in charge to get permission for redevelopment, and gave the existing residents only a penny and kicked them out.”
“No, a company listed on the KOSPI teamed up with a gangster to commit such a heinous act? does that really make sense? It's not even a movie...” A
situation in which the ugly bare face of a company with a reputation for sending out advertisements on terrestrial TV was revealed to the world in detail. As detailed stories about them and the Dongmyeong faction that ruled Seoul began to pop up here and there due to the hot media coverage, people criticized the police and prosecutors from all over the place.
“Are the police and prosecutors all idiots? What did you do when you couldn't catch something like this?”
“admit. You say you've been doing it this way for at least ten years, but no one knew this?”
“I heard that the number of victims who were murdered because of Yuhan Construction’s instigation is at least a few dozen... At this point, it’s not a construction company, it’s just a contract killing company, isn’t it?”
Public sentiment began to boil over the evil deeds of those who went beyond the limit. And an article that came up in such an urgent situation started to bring an enormous aftermath.
-Shock. The wife of Kang Man-cheol, president of Yuhan Construction, is known to be working as a chief prosecutor at the Seoul District Prosecutor's Office.
At the Seoul District Prosecutor's Office, which is the highest elite course for prosecutors and anyone wants to be assigned to. was astonished.
-So..... You mean that the husband who is now the president of a construction company pays off money here and there, and the wife, who is a prosecutor, deliberately looks after the gangsters and covers up all the crimes they committed?
- Wow... is this a true story? Is this Korea right?
-lol. The real country is going back very well.
-Can't we just put all those bastards to death? It's a waste of taxes to put you in prison.
-Anyway, the nation's treasure.....
The police and the prosecutor's office fell on fire in a sudden large-scale incident. The Commissioner General of the National Police Agency and the Prosecutor General moved desperately enough to bow down and apologize in person, but things became more complicated and noisy as the political world rushed to bite them.
And... in such a situation, President Jeon Ki-chan was having an in-depth conversation with a young woman who visited the Blue House in search of him.
“I'm so glad things worked out, Mr. President. The Secretary of State also asked for his deepest condolences.”
“No. Rather, I should say thank you. If it wasn't for the Argos system, something bigger could have happened because we couldn't respond immediately.”
The Eye of Argos, which has eyes all over the world, monitors and analyzes everything. Since he found out that the US government is secretly operating this system, he has had a lot of moral confusion and skepticism, but today, for the first time, President Jeon Chan-chan, who benefited from it, can realize it.
That sometimes you have to close your eyes even when you see injustice for the sake of a better world.
“First of all, I will deal with the agenda that I came to. If the situation was good, the Secretary of State was considering visiting Korea personally, but there are opinions that it would be a little unreasonable in the current situation. Inevitably, the easygoing me asked me to go and take a look instead. Are there any additional issues related to this case that could be a risk to the Prism Project?”
A woman who asks with sharp eyes on behalf of the Secretary of State. In response to her question, President Jeon Chan paused for a moment and pondered.
The highest-ranking officials in the United States... Among them, the artificial intelligence system Argos, which does not even know its existence, except for those who are in the top 10.
As the president who governs a country, he understood very well how enormous the strategic value of this is, so he thought about something with a serious face for a long time before opening his mouth.
“Remedy has been done somehow. No information related to Chae-yeon has been leaked to the outside, and everything related to the rescue operation will remain strictly confidential. Can you tell the U.S. government not to worry, at least no one in this administration has any doubts about Argos?”
“is that so....?”
A woman who looks at the words of President Jeon Chan with strange eyes and asks back. However, she suddenly made an expression as if she wanted to know what she was doing, and then sat down on the sofa laughing.
“Oh... I’m sorry, Mr. President. I am no longer affiliated with the State Department, but I was acting in diplomat mode without realizing it because I was thinking about the old days.”
“Is that so...? I had no idea.”
Unlike before, a woman sits down with a much more comfortable face. However, President Jeon Ki-chan, who was dealing with her, felt more nervous than before.
“yes. Actually, it's nothing to worry about. The Secretary of State is still my former direct superior, so I still have a feeling of difficulty, but now he asks me to just call him Helen comfortably
. There, Eugene was a former secretary serving the Secretary of State, a senior cabinet member who is fourth in the presidential succession order. Recalling the memories of the past, she made a vague expression, but soon her face distorted at President Jeon Chan's words.
“So... what is the little guy doing these days? It sounds like you’ve been shut up in America and don’t even think about coming back to Korea.”
“You mean Minsu...?”
Eugene abandoned the post of Secretary of State and changed his job one day by chance. And soon after, Eugene realized that the being she held hands with was Satan's bastard who had returned to this world, but she, who had already been put on a leash for an enormous amount of money, was still in pain as she cleaned up the dung of that mindless madman. I was passing my days
“Nowadays... it’s quiet. Normally, I'm stuck in a NASA lab. I don't know what it is, but I'm very busy going back and forth between Ajin Electronics' factories and research centers in the US. Sometimes they ask me to procure ridiculously expensive high-tech equipment and facilities.”
When the story of Min-su comes out, she pours out an enormous lamentation as if a person has suddenly changed, and her mouth doesn't know how to rest. However, President Jeon Ki-chan interrupted her speech as if it was not important and asked with a nervous face.
“Could it be... does he know what happened in Korea this time...?”
“Minsu-sama...?”
Asked if he was aware of this incident in Korea. And in response to President Jeon Ki-chan's question, Eugene looked at him with a face as if he was seriously crazy and said.
“Maybe you don’t know? If I had already known, I would have rolled my eyes again and returned straight to Korea and made all sorts of jokes.”
President Jeon Chan is pleased with Eugene's words that he would not know. And he took a deep breath as if he was really relieved.
“I'm glad... I'm so glad...”
“Sure. Just in case, don't press the seizure switch again because you say something strange in front of Minsu. He said he's been so quiet lately that I'm even more anxious. I think it will explode again soon.”
“Okay. don't let me do that Then...”
After that, President Jeon Chan-chan had a brief chat with Eugene, asking each other how they were doing. As he sent her away for the next schedule, he asked out of curiosity.
“Oh, so what else is Minsu making?”
“Minsu-nim...? I don't know... It sounds like you're making some sort of rocket...?”
“You mean rockets...?”
“yes. It's a rocket. It's the one that blows it into space.”
“I see... You've been living more normally than I thought.”
The electric president nodded and murmured at Eugene's words that he seems to be making rockets in collaboration with NASA. Eugene laughed as if he agreed with his words, threw a word and left.
“So. How terrified I was when I first thought that I was going to build a space battleship.”

“Aww! Assignment over!”
“Freedom! Freedom has finally come!”
“vacation! vacation! vacation! vacation!”
“Kiaaaaaang! Let's drink! alcohol! You must eat today!”
A group of college students scattering around cheering after the final submission of the assignment. And in the midst of such a crowd, Jaeyoung looked at Jaekyun and Chaeyeon with an ignorant face and asked.
“By the way, where did Tae-soo go? You don't even come to class, but you can't even see the nose poke on the day you hand in your assignments? What's going on?”
Jae-young, who is unaware of the latest news that makes Korea lively. At his question, Jaekyun broke out in sweat as if he had been stung by something.
“Ah, maybe you took a leave of absence? Aren’t you going to be out of school for a while?”
“what....? leave of absence? No, why is he all of a sudden? How long is vacation left?”
Jae-young, surprised by Jae-gyun's words, asks. In response to his question, Jaekyun rolled his eyes left and right, trying to blur his words.
“Is that so? I don't know exactly either. Maybe it's because it just doesn't come out.....”
“You... do you know something? What? Don't make me wonder, tell me. hurry.”
Jae-kyun, who is synonymous with indifference that cannot be found without notice. There was no way he would have noticed Tae-soo's leave of absence and told him first, so Jae-young looked at Jae-gyun with sharp eyes and began to question him.
“what. I won't spread rumors, so tell me. Did you have a real deal with Tae-soo? huh? Did the two of you decide to take a leave of absence and fight a man fight?”
“That... that’s why...”
“Huh? huh? huh?”
Jaeyoung keeps asking questions with a smirk as if making fun of Jaekyun. However, he froze in genuine astonishment when he saw a person clinging to the side of Jae-kyun, who was at a loss for what to do.
“That’s right, Jaeyoung. Jae-gyun and Tae-soo did a good job with me between them.”
“what....?”
Chaeyeon Jeon.
From the time she was a freshman until the end of her second year, she had been managing the fishing grounds for a while. Seeing her approach first and openly cross her arms with Jae-gyun, everyone around him, including Jae-young, stopped moving as if time had stopped.
“You don’t know how cool our Jaekyun was, right? Tae-soo, that son of a bitch, is just a hit! And he left?”
“...?”
“...?”
A scene you can't even imagine.
However, Jaeyoung, who was looking at Jaegyun who didn't say anything with an awkward smile, stopped thinking at Chaeyeon's words.
“So stop bullying my boyfriend, Jaeyoung. It's embarrassing, so it's hard to answer. let's go! Jaegyun. Didn't we go see a movie together today?”
Jae-kyun takes Chae-yeon's hand as if she is being dragged and leaves. Jaeyoung, who had been staring blankly at him, thought with a dejected expression at the strange emotions that came flooding back.
The public who praises such genuine people as genius creators.
In the end, Chae-yeon chose Jae-gyun after abandoning the proud governor.
He said that this world, which he could not understand with his common sense, must be crazy.
“This earth writer bastard.... It's really implausible.”
