Episode 235:
The secret operation ended successfully as all those who escaped were arrested.
However, it was not 100% successful.
“I hoped everyone would be safe, but it ended up like this.”
“This is a satisfactory result.”
Cheon Myeong-guk, who received the president’s gaze, nodded without changing his expression.
Choi Jun-ho’s rant ended with it being revealed to be true. Those who tried to escape tried to go to China through Gunsan, but were all subdued by Choi Jun-ho, who arrived first, and taken to Seoul.
The only flaw in the process was that Kang Woo-tae, a three-term lawmaker, became an idiot. It was amazing to achieve this much in a situation where I could have easily missed it.
but.
If it had been Choi Jun-ho, wouldn’t he have been able to arrest everyone safely?
I thought something must have happened in the process of arresting Kang Woo-tae.
“Now that I think about it, Kang Woo-tae criticized you fiercely.”
“He went down a bad path, but his talent was amazing. “It would have been nice to have used that talent to serve the country and government.”
“Everyone has their own greed, but will it lead in that direction? “Just not being involved in corruption is something to be thankful for.”
“It’s not easy.”
“Everyone does. “There are many talented people, but not many who can control their greed.”
In that respect, Cheon Myeong-guk was exactly the person he said he was. You are the one who attracted such a person.
In the process of criticizing Cheon Myeong-guk, Kang Woo-tae claimed that he was greedy for the presidency.
It was seen as an absurd rumor, but although Kang Woo-tae may have been greedy, it did not mean he had no eyes for seeing. What he saw was accurate, and it was a struggle to obtain limited power.
“It’s okay to have someone like that stand in the photo line.”
Although Kang Woo-tae has become an idiot, he plans to stand in the photo line when he appears at the prosecutor’s office.
This act of killing twice is entirely Cheon Myeong-guk’s decision.
“If a crime is committed, we must show that it is dealt with reliably. Even if I became an idiot.”
“Well, that would be justice.”
“Thank you for accepting my unreasonable request.”
“I decided to leave this matter to you, right? So, don’t worry about trivial things.”
“thank you.”
Even if I become an idiot, I will definitely see the end.
Even though I felt that it was the heartlessness of power, I couldn’t help but be appalled.
“It makes me feel old to think like this.”
In the past, people would have taken steps to preserve their dignity while thinking about what would happen next. The more cruelly one exercises power, the more people bow down to oneself.
“So why make such a foolish choice?”
The president clicked his tongue.
* * *
Brainwashing succeeded in extracting information from Kang Woo-tae’s head, but the results were minimal.
There was talk of the league intervening, but if you look at the reality, it was just a ploy to lure me out.
Unless it was known specifically where and how many troops were stationed, it was safe to say that there was no room for me to intervene.
“It’s a bit of a joke.”
These guys are turning their heads because they are also suffering damage. Just watch the tide, catch Kang Woo-tae, and then watch it quickly disappear.
In the end, after sending the fugitives to Seoul, I also had no choice but to return.
The first person I met when I arrived in Seoul was Sehee Lee. This is to discuss how to deal with the Confederate Army’s attempt to send support to help these fugitives.
When I entered the Shinsung Group headquarters building, Lee Se-hee was turning on the TV. There, Kang Woo-tae appearing for the prosecution was broadcast live.
Silence lingered at the sight of the person entering the room in a wheelchair, with empty eyes that had lost their weapons and unable to control their bodies of their own will.
Reporters bombarded him with questions, but Kang Woo-tae could not answer anything. There is no way an idiot can answer properly. But now that my mind is clear, wouldn’t it be a relief to not have to face my future overshadowed by dark clouds? The stress of modern people comes from taking in too much information.
“It’s nice to see.”
“Do you like it?”
“I think it would be a good fit to be the last person who stands against Junho. “We should have thought about what would happen if we pursued profit arbitrarily and dragged other countries into it.”
You can already guess that I had a hand in it.
I agreed and told them about the involvement of the Confederate Army in the process of their escape.
Lee Se-hee’s eyes lit up as she listened to the story.
“I was beaten from all sides, but in the end, I ended up killing myself. “Depending on how you use it, I think it can sink you into a quagmire.”
Lee Se-hee created harsh conditions for the Confederate army by mentioning an official apology and compensation.
You’re taking it all? I think the roots of the pillar will be pulled out like that.
“You’re not going to take that?”
“It’s a condition that states not to accept it. Only then will a cause be created to support other places.”
“Ah….”
[I’m starting to be afraid of this person.]
Lee Se-hee argued that even though China was divided into several parts, the southern army still had the most superior military power, so they should use this opportunity to eat away at their remaining power.
“This will create a Confederate siege. “The reason Junho came was to tell me to talk to the government and try to connect with them, right?”
“that’s right. But I guess there’s no reason to worry.”
“Because that’s what I used to do.”
“however.”
“yes.”
“May I ask why you are so enthusiastic?”
I didn’t know why Lee Se-hee was actively trying to divide China.
I was the one who held a grudge, but it was she who took a more active role.
She smiled at my question. It contained a refreshing, juicy flavor that would make the viewer excited.
“It’s good to have multiple markets.”
“What does it mean?”
“China’s massive single market allows buyers to believe in scale and exercise their courage. Because of that, our group suffered ridiculous humiliation for a long time. However, if the market is divided into an appropriate size and the relationship between them is not good, they will not abuse power but instead offer benefits in order to attract products.”
Shinsung Group has a long history and has suffered from harsh interference from China, one of the world’s most powerful countries.
In the process, their technology was stolen, expensive equipment was stolen, and they had to go through hardships due to all sorts of disputes without being able to keep the money they had earned.
Even after the appearance of the monster, we have experienced more blatant threats. If it weren’t for me, the Big Bang series wouldn’t have made its way to China. Lee Se-hee said that she would seize this opportunity and achieve results by any means necessary.
“And there is one thing I really want to see.”
Lee Se-hee’s smile was still refreshing.
“Isn’t it charming to see a buyer who was always asking for everything become servile and beg to sell at least one item?”
“….”
Now I see that the juice of that smile was not freshness but madness.
Yongyong trembled when he saw that.
[I’m scared of him!]
…Don’t worry, Yongyong. You are not the only one who feels this.
* * *
After finishing the discussion with Lee Se-hee, the person who greeted me when I returned to the office was Jeong Joo-ho with a determined expression.
It is a face that has made a decision.
“Representative Choi, let’s say it comfortably. “It’s Junho.”
“Yes, Director.”
“Actually, I had given up on becoming a superhuman a long time ago. There are a lot of monsters in the world, and I realized a long time ago that my talent couldn’t reach them. So I thought, let’s do what I’m good at.”
“You’re doing everything well.”
In fact, Chung Ju-ho succeeded in achieving the best results of all time while leading the National Defense Agency, and contributed greatly to the revival of the Republic of Korea while leading the National Front Defense Agency.
How could it be that the President had tried to dissuade Chung Joo-ho from quitting five times? Although I don’t have a good eye for work, there are only a handful of people who are as good at their work as Jung Joo-ho.
“no. I appreciate the positive comments, but the important thing is that I tried to give up. But after hearing your words, I gained courage. “Do you think I can become a superhuman?”
Although he had made up his mind, he seemed unsure whether he could become a superhuman. You say you need to hear my answer to find out.
me? I think there is no one in this world who cannot be a superhuman.
There is no reason why the talented Jung Joo-ho can’t do it.
“As far as the results are concerned, it seems quite possible.”
“Is that so?”
There was no pitch in his voice, but Jeong Joo-ho’s expression looked quite happy.
“Then would you like to try it?”
“would.”
I guess my persuasion that my hair would grow thicker worked. Jung Joo-ho actually rationalizes that he still has regrets about being a superhuman, but I’m not sure if that’s true.
I don’t think so.
Actually, I didn’t invite you to explore Jung Joo-ho’s gift.
I achieved my goal by returning to the past and staying with my family, but I was aware that there were many enemies around me.
Although I didn’t intend to, I lost ground with the league, and not only China but also Japan began to look at me with suspicion.
I am not worried but my family is not strong like me.
So the plan I made is to fill the surroundings with strong people. So, the long-term plan is to make it so that no one even dares to touch it.
In that case, it would be better for someone you can trust to become strong.
“And I know.”
“What do you mean?”
“There is information missing from your words. “Why did you just say that the hair gets thicker and not mention that the hair roots get stronger?”
[oh! [Great crisis!]
Yongyong seems to think this is a crisis.
I asked back with an unconcerned expression.
“Didn’t we talk about it?”
“I didn’t. “I guess it’s because they’re afraid that I won’t do it.”
“It’s not like that in particular.”
“But I also have a way.”
Jung Joo-ho smiled confidently. What kind of method did you find that makes you look like you have everything in the world?
“James Reed said that a drug to strengthen hair roots was developed in the United States. “If you use it, you can grab both the hair and the hair root at the same time.”
In other words, the story was that Jeong Joo-ho aimed to improve his constitution by utilizing the vitality of a superman and the power of medicine.
I thought Jung Joo-ho was not easy to make because he didn’t make a decision based on just a few words from me.
But is it possible?
[Does human ability surpass that of divine beasts? Nonsense. Hair loss is natural!]
Yongyong immediately looked like he couldn’t believe it.
Same goes for me.
Still, I can at least give you a compliment.
“I thought the director would find a way.”
“If it’s a combination of hair roots that will never break and hair that will grow thicker than it is now, it won’t get any worse.”
It was my first time seeing Jeong Joo-ho so motivated. I guess it’s true that I taught you something good.
“Then shall we start training right away?”
“Putting it off any longer isn’t my thing. “Can I ask you a favor?”
“You can speak freely. “Then let’s go.”
I was somewhat confident that Jung Joo-ho would accept, so I had left my luck on Berserker.
Actually, I said I would teach from the beginning, but Berserker stopped me, saying I would die.
I guess Berserker doesn’t know how good he is at pushing me to the brink of death.
[If you go one step further, you die right away?]
Even Yongyong is fighting next to him.
Berserker, who was immersed in training alone in the training room, noticed Joo-ho Jeong’s face full of firm determination and his eyes lit up.
“Have you made up your mind?”
“Please take care of me in the future.”
“We welcome comrades who join us on this arduous journey.”
“I’ll be ready right away.”
After Joo-ho Jeong began to warm up enthusiastically, I had a separate conversation with Berserker.
“Did you think you had the potential to become a superhuman?”
“Anyone can become a superhuman if they try hard.”
“That is hard to sympathize with. But there must be a reason why you said that.”
Is it true? I, who was nothing special and dull, became a superhuman and the worst villain. However, there is no reason why Jeong Joo-ho, who has been on the elite course since he was young, should not be able to do so.
“The more superhumans there are, the better.”
However, if Chung Joo-ho becomes a superman and succeeds Cheon Myeong-guk, will he become the first superhuman president in constitutional history? Is your body healthy and strong enough to work 168 hours a week? I think Cheon Myeong-guk will like it.
Berserker, unaware of my thoughts, asked for more details.
“So, what do you think the intensity of training should be?”
“Of course, you have to roll to the point where you don’t die. At the same time, it would be better if it made you think that you would rather be dead. Of course, it has to be such that there is no strength to die.”
“….”
[Is that possible?]
Berserker swallowed dryly and Yongyong expressed his doubts. This is like an art. All parts must be balanced to create this state perfectly.
Actually, it’s not easy for me either. That’s why they say killing the easiest thing in the world is killing it.
Berserker may look rough, but he’s a meticulous guy, so he’ll do well.
“I’ll help you, so squeeze it out.”
“A lamb that enters the fence leaves nothing to be wasted, from its fur to its meat and bones.”
“Isn’t that a cool analogy?”
Berserker smiled fiercely but happily. If Jeong Joo-ho is a sheep, would Berserker be like a calf? Cows are also great animals.
“We’re ready!”
After that, Jeong Joo-ho’s clear voice rang out.
