183: Lay down and see (8)

“What else is he?”

“It’s a killer.”

Man-ho and Min-seok saw Cheol-woo getting out of the car and ran quickly. Pietro also ran up to him and raised his ax eye towards him.

“Hey, you weren’t aiming at your brother, were you?”

“No way···.”

“Hey, oh my god! Then maybe me, me…?”

Pietro, who discovered that the person draped over Cheol-woo’s shoulder was blonde with a reddish tint, covered his open mouth with his hand. He thought that he was the only person a white man would target in a land of Asian people.

“I think I was targeting Linda, but I can’t say that I was only targeting her. You’ll have to listen to the details from his mouth…”

“Hey, would that be easy?”

“Well, I think you know a bit about it because you suffered too…?”

“Yeah, I…? Huh, I hope you put this guy in the water…”

The nightmare I wanted to forget came back to life at Cheol-woo’s words. From the point of view of Cheolwoo, it was very light to put in and take out, but Pietro had been to hell at that time.

Even now, if possible, I tried not to go near the puddles. It’s been a while since I cleaned the bathtub in the house.

Beep! set!

Then a whistle sounded. It was time to go on the last mountain canter of the day.

“older brother! We’ll go run.”

“Yeah, don’t overdo it…”

“Bay, do I have to go running too? Now that you’re here, wouldn’t it be okay?”

“Don’t do it if you don’t like it. It would be a good experience to get along with this guy and do laundry.”

“Hey, I’m going to run!”

With a pale face at the sound of washing clothes, Pietro ran into the tteokbokki. From the moment Cheol-woo appeared, the faces of the tteokbokki had already changed drastically.

Without him, even if I fell down, it would have ended with a reasonable smirk on the seashore tidal flats. But since he came, everyone knew that the lag was the laundry room.

“First-come-first-served basis, up to 10 people… depart!”

Guys in orange uniforms pushed each other and ran down the mountain road. Everyone tried to never fall behind, and they did their best to get into the top 10, which is the stable area.

“like! Everyone was in pretty good shape. But as Pietro, that guy is really…”

Minseok and Manho ran hard in the middle of the group. Min-seok has been exercising steadily since he met Cheol-woo.

However, Manho did not expect good results because his basic physical strength was so weak. However, Man-ho was surprisingly following Min-seok.

After running the Guksabong 3 times a day, my stamina started to build up. But he was at the very end of the line, Pietro.

Expressing his dislike of running, he ran as if walking, panting as if he was about to die. She was competing for last place with Hwang Soo-jung, the only woman among tteokbokki.

Cheol-woo brought Pietro here because he wanted him to become poisonous. It was because he believed that only if he had a single heart would the New York mafia believe in him and join forces, so that Linda wouldn’t be faced with the same today.

“After all, he needs to do one more wash. Because it’s clumsy, I still can’t come to my senses… Ew!”

With Wolf on one shoulder, he headed to the laundry room. Prior to Pietro, he was thinking of washing his old comrades first.

The less anaesthetized one was hung upside down and put into the drum. He was still choking, and his survival instinct woke him from his sleep.

He checked the vital signs through the Warrior and waited for the moment when his breathing stopped. Again, Wolf survived quite a long time for being soaked in this defenseless state.

widely! Wow! slurp! Coke, Coke!

As he went into the water unconscious, Wolf spewed out quite a bit of water through his mouth. As the water that was blocking his airway drained, he coughed incessantly.

“I will only ask you one thing.”

“Who are you?”

widely! Churleung! Curl!

He brought out a peculiar short question and continued washing the laundry. He did not answer easily as his opponent also had good physical strength.

So time passed. Cheol-woo gradually increased the soaking time according to the beating of his heart.

The purpose of this torture was to bring the man being washed to the brink of death. Taking away the opponent’s stamina while gradually increasing the soaking time was the first step in achieving that goal.

The physical and mental strength of the Baron he had experienced seemed to be connected but separated. When hope disappeared, his stamina fell sharply, but when he saw hope again, his stamina was revived.

Conversely, if you lose your physical strength first, your mental strength will collapse very easily. Therefore, if you repeatedly deplete your stamina, your willpower was inevitably depleted.

“I only ask one thing.”

“Corleonesi. Kek Kek!”

widely! Churleung! Tumb! Curl!

Slowly, it began to spin. I looked at the clock and saw that 40 minutes had passed.

Again, he had the physical strength of an elite mercenary. Perhaps a few years later, when he met Chul-woo, he was at his best.

“I will only ask you one thing.”

“Ugh! This probably won’t end, will it?”

The moment he went back into the water, he was smiling. It meant that he had already read the pattern of Cheolwoo.

As he said, it was an endless game. Until Cheol-woo is satisfied, he has to vomit out countless pieces of information.

“Huh! Just ask me one thing.”

“Do you see this child?”

Cheol-woo smiled and pressed the button again. Now he asked the question in reverse.

In this way, if the opponent reads the pattern of torture first, the work will not be finished easily. However, this was not the first time this had happened to Cheol-woo.

After all, time was on his side. There was no need for him to be in a hurry, unless he expected things to be easy.

As Cheol-woo was thinking about the long-running battle in his heart, there was a knock on the door outside.

“come in!”

Ilryong opened the door and entered. I saw a few guys lined up outside the door.

“There are four stragglers.”

“I’m busy right now, so let’s do it a little later. This guy is a bit tenacious. Huh!”

“Are you still holding on?”

“Yeah, they even want to play a psychology game with me.”

“Aren’t you a normal guy?”

“right! Even if CEO Baek and your two brothers are together, it will be difficult to handle one of them…”

“Is that enough?”

If it was like the old days, it would be a sound that would scratch your pride. However, as he continued to experience Cheol-woo, he came to admit that there are such monsters in the world.

Boogle!

At that moment, Cheol-woo raised his hand and sent a quiet sign, and then smiled with a smile of conversion.

“Now the time has come to end. Let the kids in in ten minutes.”

While Il-ryong closed the door and left, Cheol-woo did not even move. In his retina, the vital signs of Wolf provided by the Warrior were unfolding in detail.

Unlike before, the time for bubbles to rise has been shortened. His stamina was slowly running out, and it was proof that he was starting to break down mentally.

‘Let’s finish this time.’

[The heart may stop.]

‘You’re going to have to take that much risk to open his mouth. He was the one who never let go of his gun even when his hand was crushed.’

He was an old comrade who risked each other’s lives. But to Wolf, he was only the first enemy he had ever seen.

He was a guy who could stab a bullet or a knife in his heart at any moment if he handled it clumsily. I’m sorry, but it would be better to remove it cleanly than that.

That’s why I didn’t have to look for them, but I never imagined that they would crawl all the way to Korea. If this is a tough relationship, is it a relationship?

‘If I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t know, but since I met you like this, I have to thoroughly make myself my own person. Or kill him…’

This is why being a mercenary is such a dirty job. Enemies, allies, and allies have turned into beings that can stab them from behind at any time.

It was a miracle that the three of them depended on each other in such an environment. But now I have no intention of going back to that time.

The special circumstances of the battlefield in the desert only made them depend on each other. It was just a vain delusion to come and ask Wolf for camaraderie.

‘Don’t step on it thoroughly. And you’ll hold it tight in my grasp.’

Boogle! ···Pop!

The moment he swallowed his poisonous heart, the bubbles that floated to the surface were cut off. finally stopped breathing.

[The heart is still beating.]

‘Anyway, he’s a terribly sinister guy. Huh!’

In the meantime, they were aiming for the enemy’s vigilance. The moment he pulls him out without knowing it and puts him on the floor, he intends to counterattack somehow.

bang! Flutter, sway!

As if he knew everything, he kicked the drum and laughed at his plan. Then the little bubbles floated back on the water.

Honey gurgling! Dream wriggling!

The water in the drum was noticeably reduced as if it had really reached its limit. He even writhes in agony.

But Cheol-woo didn’t even budge. He decided to finish it on this board, so he thought he would at least get him out of his breath before salvaging him.

[He has a cardiac arrest.]

widely! Wow! slurp!

Wolf’s body, which had been suffering from cardiac arrest, was quickly rescued. Then, an electric current passed through his fist, beating his heart hard.

puck! Turn it off!

He came to his senses, his prayers were opened, and the water in his throat poured out from all directions. His eyes fluttered in his eyes, but little by little, his focus was on Cheol-woo’s face.

“Howdy! Welcome back to this world.”

“Damn, the welcome reaction is too salty to be revived. Cool, cool! You didn’t mean to save it in the first place, did you?”

For the snout of the dead and alive, his tone was too light. But that was the charm of this guy.

Wolf admitted that his strategy was wrong. He thought he would keep himself alive, at least until he got information.

But when he came back to life, he had no choice but to admit that it wasn’t. No matter how stubborn he was, he didn’t want to be killed in a place like this.

“Keep, Heck! Damn, is it time for me to retire? I went on vacation and wanted to know what it was like.”

“Who exactly placed the order?”

“Are you deaf? I told you before. They’re called Corleones. Are you sure you were trying to kill me just to check that one out?”

For a guy hanging upside down, he had plenty of room. I was happy to see the familiar behavior of my old comrades, but work came first.

“What is the target?”

“Linda Grace, and one option to drop.”

“Why are you Linda? If it’s a power struggle between the mafia, she’ll tremble, but if she gets rid of it, she’ll be okay…?”

“Good question, I was actually curious about that. So I asked. Then he said he had a different opinion. I can’t be an enemy of my own who trembles… Once removed from the exposed Linda, she goes after her fiance. That was their plan. Perhaps that fiance is referring to you?”

Even in the midst of a cool reply, his body did not rest. He used the recoil of his body to move the chain on which he was hanging, trying to find the weak spot.

shudder! Woodang!

Cheol-woo, who could not understand his intentions, without a word, loosened the shackles tied to his feet. Wolf, who didn’t think he would let go, was thrown on the floor without any preparation.

“Ah! Damn it! Let me tell you in advance.”

“Did you tell me ahead of time and aim for Linda?”

Refusing to answer, he touched the treated area and looked around. After all, it was just inside a container that was tightly closed on all sides.

“It is a small island, and there is only one way out. The highest mountain on the island is about 300 meters high.”

“Sheesh! You brought me to a place that’s terribly difficult to escape. Are you hitting me that high?”

“Don’t get me wrong. ‘Cause you’re just a sidekick The main is over there.”

After hearing Wolf’s scream, the Ilryong opened the door again. And when he saw Cheol-woo’s head, he brought in the stragglers.

“You are sitting over there and resting for a while. After work, let’s have a late meal and then we can even talk.”

Cheol-woo said as he looked at the tteokbokki that were falling. Wolf smiled strangely and crawled into the corner.
