destroy evidence

– Are you watching?

“Oh, I’m watching.”

Only half a day had passed since Na Sang-gi and Kim Chan-ho had gone, and I had spent time worrying about the safety of my father and the people involved in the consulting.

A phone call came from Na Sang-gi. He contacted me early in the morning and said it was related to the Korean-Japanese group and turned on the TV.

Three days from the return to today. Ha Yeon-woo, who is in a hotel and has tried to get used to the modern world, except for the time he spends with his father.

Thanks to that, it was relatively easy to find and play the channel he said.

[…] … known as Not only the local police but also the Awakening Crime Investigation Agency were dispatched to a total of 25 arson sites in Seoul at about the same time… .

… … On the other hand, as a result of our coverage, most of the generations in question were known as the Awakened residences, and all of them belonged to the same guild or came from a company with affiliates, which shocked me… .]

“In this situation, the people I killed were probably not the Koreans and the Japanese. Are the dead guys a Korean-Japanese group?”

-Yes, first of all, we were collecting data related to the teacher, centering on Korea and Japan, but most of the dead this time were the people to be questioned. More than forty bodies have been recovered from the scene so far.

“Are you cutting off the tail?”

Of course, it had to be considered that way.

After they returned, they killed several of the people involved and rescued their father safely, so if you have any thoughts, you know that information about them has been leaked.

-that is… . It’s a bit strange. Not sure yet… .

“… … ?”

-There is a lot of inside talk about the feeling of being overworked for simply cutting off the tail.

At the words of Na Sang-gi, I organized my thoughts once again.

Not by his own standards, but by ordinary human standards.

Most of the dead were employees of Hanil Group affiliates or awakened members of the Hanil Guild.

Killing about 40 people in the group at once would be a huge risk for them.

However, he did not stop there and even committed arson in 25 places in downtown Seoul to handle the work.

It was an act that only those who had no worries about the future, or who had no future at all, could do it. Ha Yeon-woo also belongs to the former, so when I first heard the story, I didn’t feel strange.

“More than just trying to cover it up from the top. It could have been done quietly.”

-So, isn’t that why the Korean-Japanese group is simply a role to perform that is instigated? I am thinking carefully.

It made sense. What if the subject was not a Korean-Japanese group, but they were also runners?

When the main body thinks, it won’t matter how to kill and destroy the evidence. If you just remove the link, there won’t be anything to do with it.

“The Korean-Japanese group wasn’t over.”

– We decided that the matter was serious, so we plan to summon the group chairman tomorrow. First of all, it’s related to the teacher, so I thought I should inform you of the related progress… . I have contacted you.

“okay.”

A brief silence followed the simple answer, followed by Na Sang-gi’s cautious words.

-I… . teacher. Isn’t Kim Chan-ho the head of the investigation office? I heard that I can’t use mana… .

“Maybe.”

Silence continued once more as Ha Yeon-woo talked like a stranger.

-uh… therefore… Whoa… . no. We’ll keep you in touch as things progress.

There are things to say, but the nuances seem to have been cut from the lines of the person himself.

He ended his conversation with Na Sang-gi with almost tearful words.

The more I looked at him, the funnier he was.

The same is true of the smell of alcohol from our first meeting, and the corrupt bureaucrat itself, but as a public servant, do what you have to do very well.

The behavior itself seems to have a strong sense of justice, but Ha Yeon-woo does not say anything about the people he killed, and even the attitude of subtly supporting him that he will kill everyone involved.

Above all, whether it was responsibility or forced to take it on, I was happy to do my best to help with this side’s work right now.

It was because anyone could see that he was communicating exclusively with himself on behalf of the government.

by the way.

“If Korea and Japan are also tails… .”

Things turned out to be a lot more complicated than I thought. It’s been a long time since I’ve been out of size to be clean by simply killing a few people from the Korean-Japanese group.

If it is a group that can infiltrate deep inside the middle-sized group and give orders to the Hanil group, which is the second largest in the Korean gate-related industry, it is correct to see that it is much larger than them.

‘They’re more gloomy.’

Neither of them was easy.

It’s not that killing them is difficult, it’s that the process of finding and dealing with the last thing related to this is tedious.

The vast majority of people on the continent that Ha Yeon-woo killed were high-ranking figures such as kings, nobles, and heads of certain powers.

The rest of the thugs were stuck around them and were swept away screaming.

In the first place, the absolute monarchy there, the king and nobles rarely left the ground, and it was easy to find and kill them.

Exile or running away to a foreign country is not common, so there was little need to bother looking for it.

It was a phenomenon that occurred because authority had the same roots as the state itself.

However, compared to the Pan continent, the culture and lifestyle in general were overdeveloped.

As long as he had money, he could be treated like a king anywhere on the earth, and since there were so many ways to hide and conceal himself, even Ha Yeon-woo had to jump on his feet and eliminate them one by one.

‘It’s frustrating.’

It should be said that it feels like there is no tree to drive in when there are nails and hammers.

First of all, the Korean-Japanese group can be the tail rather than the head. It is a clear fact that someone wants to sever that link itself.

I’ve already taken appropriate measures, so if it’s not a big threat, I won’t be hurt in the slightest, but for the time being, it seemed right to not be separated from my father except within a radius of a few kilometers.

After figuring out the circumstances of this incident. It wasn’t too late to move then.

As the matter grew, the government seemed to be quite serious about the investigation.

10 years after the first gate occurs.

In the meantime, the global real estate market continued to decline.

The cause is a gate that appears randomly regardless of time and place.

Now, after years of research, based on the wavelengths emitted from the cube, the location of the gate can be specified in advance in a short time.

Therefore, unless a monster that is difficult to handle appears, the casualties of ordinary people are not at a catastrophic level.

However, real estate cannot be moved. In the process of creating gates and dealing with monsters, there are cases in which buildings break down and collapse.

As a result, the flow of assets shifted from real assets to financial assets, and real estate, which was the representative of real assets, naturally faced a collapse.

Nevertheless, there was a place that firmly defended the price, and the representative area in Korea is Seongbuk-dong, a mansion complex where high-ranking officials and chaebol presidents are concentrated.

In other words, all the members there are powerful, have money, and have the ability to execute something.

The current Seongbuk-dong Block Fortress was created nine years ago with money borrowed, construction plans drawn up, and high-ranking officials contributing their strength.

In the event of a gate, it was possible to head to the connected underground bunker within 2 minutes from anywhere, and the buried alloy barrier with a thickness of more than 1 meter was raised to minimize damage to property and human life.

Even having a large number of guards made up of awakened people stationed there.

It was how Seongbuk-dong became proud of the overwhelming land price after taking down Gangnam, which had been tossing and turning.

Now, a large number of high-ranking Awakeners have migrated to it, literally transforming it into a natural fortress and a place where only precious bodies gather.

the outskirts of it. It was not a net exhaust, but inside a two-story mansion of 100 pyeong built on a site priced at 250 million per pyeong.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I am sure.”

Kim Deok-young, the head of the Hanil Group and the representative of the Hanil Gate, was receiving a report with an anxious face from the Awakener in charge of security.

‘Damn you bastards.’

His right hand holding the cigarette trembled, unable to hide the tension.

How many things have been done so far, but the party was trying to throw away the whole of Korea and Japan just because one consulting was twisted.

To be precise, he was trying to throw away only the long-term horses, including himself, not Korea and Japan.

Kim Deok-young, who was once a researcher at a large corporation, felt skeptical about his life after the gate outbreak.

Repetitive daily life as if spinning on a treadmill, incomplete knowledge, anxiety of not knowing when to die, and oneself falling behind in the changing world.

Using the previous excuses as an excuse, I came up with the idea of selling confidential corporate data to a Chinese research institute with which I had a relationship and making a large sum of money, and then I met a Chinese organization with the short name ‘Dang’.

Nothing was known or could be known, but their offer was much bigger and sweeter than his plan to make a few bucks by selling trade secrets.

Thinking of becoming a criminal anyway, he readily accepted their offer.

The second act of his life began when he received a huge amount of money and information, and founded a company called Hanil Gate based on it.

In a short period of time, he was able to become the owner of the Hanil Group with several subsidiaries.

Now the real ‘owner’ was trying to kill all the dogs he had.

“Do you think I will be able to rummage easily?”

It’s already too far back. To him, Hanil was Kim Deok-young, and Kim Deok-young was the same as Hanil.

tomorrow. His idea was that if he held out until tomorrow when the government summoned him, he would somehow find a way to survive.

In the safe in the back, there were documents prepared in advance in preparation for this situation.

‘If I adequately disclose the information and ask for personal protection, how can they not do it?’

A device prepared to abandon the party in mind that the party will abandon itself.

According to the contents of the document, he is a sound entrepreneur, and an unknown force in China is pursuing his achievements.

The support they provided was almost non-existent because it was cleanly laundered money, and nothing was taken back.

In the first place, what the party wanted was not money, but things that were being developed in the basement of the headquarters.

“As long as development is complete… It can be an alternative to awakening. Then Asia. No, you can dominate the world market… .”

Weing- weing-

Deok-Young Kim, the leader of Korea and Japan, dreamed of an azure future despite trembling in fear.

I hurriedly turned my attention to the chief of security at the sudden alarm.

“what’s the matter!”

“I’ll find out right away.”

In case of emergency, an anti-monster barrier was activated around the mansion.

He did not choose to escape because he knew very well that wherever he went in Korea, he was no safer than here in the Seongbuk-dong mansion.

A security company composed of all Awoken that guards the entire district complex. A sensor that signals danger. A 1 meter thick anti-monster barrier. From underground shelters to people living in the surroundings.

It was because they thought that there was no way they would infiltrate and terrorize this place unless they were crazy people.

Kwaaang-

As soon as the head of security opened the door and left, the sound of shells exploding reverberated throughout Deok-Young Kim’s mansion.

A malfunction of the detection sensor is obviously not a situation.

“city… f*ck… .”

He jumped up and with trembling hands removed the picture frame right behind the chair.

beep beep beep

Right after that, I pressed the password to the safe buried in the wall.

“Kim Deok-young.”

Before he knew it, three monsters who crossed the open threshold called him and stopped him.

Kim Deok-young, who stood still and turned his head to face them, immediately knelt down.

The feast of flesh and blood seen through the open door. It was because I saw that the 4th-tier Awakener, the Security Chief, had become bloody and stuck to the wall as soon as he left.

“Did you come from the party? please save me I can handle this job just fine! The returnee, too, in a different way… .”

squeak-

His rambling words had to be cut short.

Because one of the monsters cut him in two with the longsword he was holding.

“It’s a place where you don’t get burned by arson. It blows away with an explosion.”

At the words of the man who seemed to be the leader, the two monsters scattered throughout the house.

The remaining man stepped on Kim Deok-young’s corpse and walked to the safe he had pressed the password to open.

His hand gripped the handle of the safe, and soon a rupture began to be heard from there.

Woojik- Woojikkeun-

The safe, which was made of solid iron and locked if the password was incorrect, was ripped out in its entirety helplessly by the man’s grip.

Inside the open safe are several gold bars, cash, and a stack of papers.

Picking up only a bundle of papers, he lit a high-end Zippo lighter on Kim Deok-young’s desk and burned it.

“A sick bastard.”

A man leaves a short message and goes back the way he came.

It happened in just over two minutes after the alarm from the security sensor sounded throughout the mansion and complex.

They disappear after tens of seconds.

High-ranking Awakeners who lived nearby, security personnel, the police who were dispatched, and even the people of the Awakening Crime Investigation Office who were closely watching Kim Deok-young.

A group of people began to congregate outside the fenced mansion.

“It has been released.”

coo goong-

After the security company spoke, the thick barrier began to descend.

What appeared immediately after that was a hell spreading out in the yard of the huge two-story mansion.

It is scary for people to lament at the yard where dozens of corpses are scattered.

aaang-!

Deokyoung Kim’s mansion caused a huge explosion.
