The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 103: Lee Seong hyun (1)

Chapter 103: Lee Seong hyun (1)

Its not even Sunday, so whats going on?

Despite it not being a regular meeting day, Ryu Min was making his way to Lostyaks residence.

The reason? An unexpected urgent summons.

Could it be? Are they already putting the plan into action?

While he had a hunch, he knew he had to attend the meeting first.

Swoosh-

Entering the one-room space, he lifted the invisibility skill.

Disguise.

Rumbling, Rumbling-

After flawlessly transforming into the spitting image of Lostyak, Ryu Min took his seat in front of the computer.

[Lostyak has entered the chat room.]

Upon joining, he found Yamti and the president eagerly awaiting.

-You made it?

-Oh, sorry for being late.

-Its okay. Honestly, we were worried you wouldnt show. Each members situation is critical.

The presidents expression seemed darker than usual as he spoke.

Whats happening? Whats his deal?

It was a pity that he couldnt read his mind through the video chat.

-Yamti, how did the executive interviews we planned last time go?

-Yes! Its still ongoing, but at least three of them have successfully passed the murder test.

-So, theyre okay with our cafe?

-Yes, indeed. They are positive about our cafe, to the extent that we could sit them in a meeting without any issues.

Three? Who are these individuals aiming for an executive position

Certainly, they must have committed murder without hesitation, tempted by the position.

-So, we can use them as part of our team?

-Yes, but whats the matter

The president cut in with a determined look.

-Tomorrow, we execute the plan.

The plan?

Curious, Ryu Min inquired.

-Mr. President, what do you mean by the plan?

-Capturing National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun. Thats the plan.

Ah That explains the urgency.

As expected.

He had long asserted that a countermeasure was needed against National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun, who had displayed hostility towards players.

So, theyve decided to kidnap him?

National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun was the observed target of Player Haven Caf.

Not only did he disregard players, but he also proposed unfavorable laws.

-I saw recent articles. National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun successfully passed the Anti-Player Act.

-If he refers to anti-players

-To effectively suppress players who commit crimes, a special organization composed of police officers who are players will be established, according to the act.

-Ah.

-The ironic part is that the members of the special organization are players who were selected from the police.

-In other words, players who are police officers will catch criminal players with power.

The chairman nodded in agreement with the explanation.

-Thats right. The problem is that now that the act has passed, our cafs position will undoubtedly decrease.

-So, kidnapping

-Yes. By kidnapping Lee Seong-hyun and showing it to the public as an example, the voices of protest will decrease.

An example? Are they planning to execute him?

Surprised, Ryu Min raised his hand and suggested an opposing opinion.

-But, Mr. President. Doesnt showing such public murder prove that the Anti-Player Act is necessary?

-I am aware of that. It might even backfire. Therefore, we wont take on the role of kidnapping.

-What? Then?

The president smiled slightly.

-We will fabricate it as if ordinary citizens kidnapped Lee Seong-hyun. We will use money to hire ordinary citizens with a criminal record to make it look like they kidnapped him. Of course, the actual kidnapping will be done by us.

-So, youre saying youll stage it?

-Exactly. After secretly kidnapping Lee Seong-hyun, well make it look like ordinary citizens did it, and well even carry out a public execution. At that point, we will intervene too late, trying to stop the criminals and save Lee Seong-hyun, but by then, Lee Seong-hyun will already be dead.

-Ah

-This way, we not only achieve the goal of killing Lee Seong-hyun but also officially let the citizens know that our caf is not an enemy.

In short, it was a strategy to kidnap and then stage a play to win public opinion by saving them later.

Hmm, there wasnt a scenario like this in the previous regressions.

In previous regressions, Lee Seong-hyun showed hostility towards players too. Then, the caf proceeded to kidnap him in the same way.

But at that time, I didnt know about this plan. I saved Lee Seong-hyun before he was kidnapped.

Ryu Min didnt know about this plan despite successfully rescuing Lee Seong-hyun and forming a bond with him.

His ability to transform into Lostyak had revealed these hidden aspects; without it, he might have remained in the dark.

Getting the Assassins Mask early turned out to be a wise move.

Achieving the Time Attack record and securing a Unique Item Selection Ticket had led to these significant developments.

-However, Mr. President. The act has already passed. Will eliminating Lee Seong-hyun make any difference?

-Hmm, a question fitting for Lostyak. Certainly, there will be changes. First and foremost, the act loses its influence with the demise of the outspoken congressman. Moreover, not only that but we might also get an opportunity to select members for the Anti-Player police unit.

-Ah, I see.

-Plus, getting rid of Lee Seong-hyun will prevent proposing more anti-player acts, simply blocking those acts makes him worth the sacrifice. Do you get it?

-Yes, Mr. President. I understand.

Having comprehended the presidents intentions and the overall plan, Ryu Min inquired about the detailed plan.

-So, how do you plan to find ordinary citizens for the show?

-Our connection with the police department will make it easy to check individuals with red flags. Well approach them, check if they have any qualms about making some money, and then recruit about half a dozen.

The president had it all planned out.

It seemed like a plan that had been contemplated for a while, not hastily concocted.

-Yamti, you mentioned we could mobilize three executives immediately, right?

-Yes, yes.

-When we execute the kidnapping of Lee Seong-hyun, involve them as well. Yamti, youll be in charge of overseeing the congressmans abduction.

-Understood. Trust me with that.

-Lostyak, assist Yamti in preparing for the kidnapping. Ill send you the location and Lee Seong-hyuns schedule.

-When is the execution time?

-The execution time is when Congressman Lee Seong-hyun goes to his office

A slight upward curve formed on the presidents lips.

-Tomorrow at 8 a.m.
