Sae-Boms Tracks (2)

Buzz- buzz-

At that moment, the handphone in my pocket started ringing.

It was a call from DK, who I had almost completely forgotten about.

Its been a while.

-Geez. Mr. Detective. Ive seen the article. Looks like you did something really amazing.

Before I could scold him for taking so long, DK started buttering me up.

It had already been almost two months since we first met at his entertainment agency.

You must have been really busy.

-Yes? Ahahaha. Well if you want to make a living, you cant help but be a bit busy.

At least hes good at speaking, if nothing else.

Avoiding the murmur of conversation between the chief and Team Leader, I headed into our office.

The other detectives seemed to be used to this situation, as they already looked to be hard at work.

Have you found out anything? About Hae-Soos sponsor, that is.

-Yes. I was looking into that, but

Seeing how his words trailed off, it seemed that the results of his search werent very good.

-It was usually the president of her agency who stepped forward to take care of any issues.

The president of her agency?

-Yep. And in the cases where the pressure on Hae-Soo was coming from the outside, it was all solved through the use of indirect connections.

If thats the case, then only the agency president knows where her sponsorship was coming from?

-Probably. When I tried to find out more about him, I heard that hed left and started a new company. Where was it again Why, isnt this the company whose aspiring celebrity was caught during the recent Thugs and Drugs Party. So thats where the former president of Hae-Soos agency ended up.

Ah. The woman who got assaulted by Moon-Joong back then.

What was her name again, Ji-Young was it?

I remember that she was the only aspiring celebrity who had attended that party.

Although most of them werent that famous, the rest were all established celebrities.

-It looks like the president had it really hard after Hae-Soo died. If it was one of his other charges who had died like that, he could have just gotten over it with a sigh, but her death caused such a mess that he was forced to cough up everything, whether it was his shares in the company or her contract fees.

Even in death, her influence was as great as ever.

-Anyway, because of that, it looks like there was a complete split in the company management.

So thats the case. By any chance, do you know if that president guy had any connections to organized crime?

At the time, the party was hosted by Madam Shim.

However, since she had had the Guma Gang behind her, that meant that, in the end, the ex-president was connected to the Guma Gang.

-Well. I cant be too surebut in this business its quite common to get entangled with gangsters. Ill send you their address. The strange thing about that place is, they dont seem to be very good at picking up calls. Sigh. Anyway, it looks like my job is all done.

Thats right. You did good work.

-You havent been in contact with my president, right? I hope that we can continue to take care of each other from now on.

As soon as I hung up the call with DK, the companys address came flying in immediately.

World Own Entertainment.

It felt like I had often heard it from somewherewas it going to become a famous company?

In any case, it looks like I would be spending the whole day out of the office.

Since after visiting this company, I needed to get started tracking down Sae-Boms whereabouts.

As I hung up the phone, Black asked in curiosity.

Is something up? Also, what happened to the case from yesterday?

It wasnt the culprit. It was a loan shark company that deals in used phones, but they said that the cell phone had been thrown away along with some clothes.

Hm. Something strange is going on.

Although I cant say for sure, I do feel like there is a problem.

This was over in Dongsu Neighbourhood, right?

Black asked as he stretched his arms out wide.

Since theres been a lot of missing persons reports, it looks like Ill be focussed on CCTV analysis for quite a while, Ill take a look in that area as well.

Okay, thanks. Oh, right. About the Thugs and Drugs Party. Wasnt there an aspiring celebrity among the people who got arrested at the time?

Thats right.

What happened to her?

What else could have happened to her? She has to go on trial. After all, her agency washed their hands clean of her right away.

Although the president seemed to have been complicit, it looks like he got away without any questioning.

I left the office and drove a car to the address that DK had sent me.

Like he said, the company wasnt answering any calls. Even though today wasnt even a holiday, it was morning on a weekday.

At a small building in Hapjeong Neighbourhood, Seoul.
