The crazy villain regains his sanity - Episode 144
144fury
“…….”
Ki Young-min frowned as he looked at the barricade spread out in front of him. He was blatantly mobilizing his personnel to block the road and get in the way..
I could see right away what their thoughts were. I could feel the determination to never bring the four investigative bureaus into the group, even if it went against public authority..
Reporters are busy capturing this scene on camera. The intention was to create a confrontational structure between Geo Group and the four investigative agencies..
“Well, it was a mistake to think that Geo Group would suffer this easily..”
The Fine Group was defeated because they attacked by surprise, but the Geo Group was an opponent with different information power and a different weight class..
Right away, honorary chairman Lee Jun-gu was a person who could smell the scent of power. That must have been why he made the bold decision to become in-laws with Kim Young-hwan..
While the Fine Group preyed on the awakened, the Geo Group in front of us now is a huge conglomerate ranked in the top 20 in the business world, and through the marriage of the chairman's second son and Kim Young-hwan's eldest daughter, Kim Young-hwan gained control..
Starting with core processing, Geo Group is responsible for producing awakened equipment parts and arranging small guild tasks..
When Kim Young-hwan was a superman, they continued to rapidly expand their business by intentionally pushing him to work. This was the reason why Geo Group, which was barely in the top 50 in the business world before Kim Young-hwan appeared, was ranked in the top 20..
Thanks to Kim Young-hwan's influence, the company has secured several promising businesses and is expected to move up the rankings several notches in the next few years..
In the process, countless suspicions were raised, but they all ended while Kim Young-hwan was alive. The power of being the only superhuman belonging to the government was a sanctuary that investigative power could not invade..
After that, I couldn't understand it properly because it was so old, but with Choi Jun-ho's help, I searched the Hwain Group and found a link..
“Just making it this far is almost a miracle.”
He didn't know that he would uncover Kim Young-hwan's corruption and point his sword at Geo Group..
The sense of having robbed countless tax evasion companies told me that this was the headquarters. If you track the money spent by the top 20 business leaders, you will get results beyond your imagination..
“Youngmin.”
At that time, a familiar face appeared in front of Ki Young-min. Just five years ago, he was a senior who led him in the same department..
“Seniors.”
“A long time.”
“Were you in Geo Group??”
“To be more precise, I was commissioned to do this work..”
“That's not like a senior..”
“Society makes you do things you don't want to do..”
The senior smiled bitterly. Ki Young-min felt the passage of time as his senior, who had always been strict about tax evasion, changed..
People who have something to protect have no choice but to become one of two people..
Becoming stronger or weaker.
The senior, who was like a well-honed sword, chose to compromise with reality as time passed..
“What brought you here??”
“Youngmin! This has already happened in the past without any problems. Do you really need to make a big deal out of it??”
“I'm just trying to fix something that's wrong.”
“It's not about revisiting things that ended well.?”
“It was my senior who told me to catch the thieves. Geo Group is also just a thief..”
“It did. But you know that. The line between law and illegality is vague. If you point out everything one by one, no one around you will be left behind. We need to think about our juniors too..”
A subtle threat hidden in words. I became bitter about the change in my senior who had stood out so sharply. He was worried that he might end up like that later..
‘no.’
it will never happen like that.
Ki Young-min shook his head resolutely, reflecting on his promise once again..
“The reason they are trying to catch Geo Group now is because they have committed an obvious illegal act. Senior, you don’t have to worry about it..”
“Ah, I said I would persuade you. This is going to break a lot. Let me tell you one thing: Youngmin, Geo Group is also sincere. It won't be easy to break through that. Can't you think again??”
“Behind me is Superhuman Choi Jun-ho. Do you think it is possible?”
“…That's why I'm saying let's resolve it amicably. Calm down.”
“Rather, a faster way to resolve the situation would be for you to persuade Honorary Chairman Lee Jun-gu..”
“That won't happen.”
The senior finished those words and went back..
Confirmed Geo Group’s will not to step down.
I thought it would be a pain if things continued like this..
“for a moment.”
However, I remembered the reaction my senior had when he mentioned Choi Jun-ho..
I'm ready to go until the end, but I'm wary of Choi Jun-ho.?
It meant one thing.
They are truly afraid of Choi Jun-ho's intervention..
“It was my senior who taught me that if I found a weakness, I should attack it cruelly..”
Ki Young-min immediately contacted Choi Jun-ho..
It didn't take long for Geo Group to confirm its determination not to stand still..
After a while, several buses appeared and people poured out..
They were protesters.
When they saw the 4th Bureau of Investigation and the Awakened Unit, their eyes lit up and they started running..
“It's them?”
“That's right, these guys are trying to destroy an intact group..”
“Just by looking at it, it looks like it’s eating up the country..”
“dogs of government!”
At first glance, it was clear that they were abusive protesters. Youngmin Ki knew what kind of picture the other person was trying to create and clicked his tongue..
“It's going to be annoying.”
Investigating the Geo Group becomes very complicated when you look at the picture of government oppression..
If I pushed ahead like this, it would be quite a burden..
I took a quick look at my smartphone and saw that there was already a fuss going on..
The National Tax Service is a place that collects taxes, not a place that destroys businesses by force. This is something the National Tax Service is most wary of, and the government is also recommending restraint..
There were charges against Geo Group, but that was why I thought the situation was not easy..
“huh?”
Starting with my superiors at the National Tax Service and everyone I had personal relationships with, I recommended them to take a step back and reorganize their battle lines..
Except one person.
Junho Choi - I'll be arriving soon, so please wait for me..
“…I tried my best not to intervene, but since I called, I guess there's nothing I can do..”
Ki Young-min, who put his smartphone in his pocket, pretended not to see the protesters and looked away..
Meanwhile, the protesters who had taken their seats began to shout slogans prepared in advance..
“Those who interfere with corporate profit-making activities, step down.!”
“Go away!”
“The four countries involved in the investigation that are hindering the country’s competitiveness must step down.!”
“Go away!”
“Stop systematic targeting of political opponents!”
“stop!”
The 4th Bureau of Investigation and the Awakened Unit were caught in the middle and found themselves in an awkward situation. It didn't seem easy to break through by force, and the protesters had their eyes wide open trying to overturn the frame..
“…….”
People in the four countries surveyed simply listened to the protesters' verbal abuse in silence..
Some people looked at Ki Young-min, hoping for a decision, but he looked away, pretending not to see..
About 30 minutes later, a mid-sized vehicle entered the scene. The person who got out of the car that stopped next to Ki Young-min was Choi Jun-ho..
When he appeared, I could feel the Geo Group buzzing..
As expected, they were most wary of Choi Jun-ho's appearance..
“I'm glad it's not over yet.”
“Thank you for coming.”
“That's an awkward situation..”
Geo Group's awakeners flinched under Choi Jun-ho's gaze..
There was a clear difference in attitude compared to when I was with him..
“I'll take care of this next time.”
“…Please.”
Ki Young-min’s confident smile was trustworthy, but at the same time, he was uneasy..
* * *
The area in front of the Geo Group headquarters, which had been silent for a moment after I appeared, was filled with excitement again as if it had never been that way..
In particular, the protesters shouted slogans at the top of their voices..
“Go away! Go away!”
“Stop! stop!”
It's a mess.
This was my impression when I saw the scene unfolding in front of Geo Group headquarters. I could see that they had decided to take action recklessly, whether by setting up barricades and mobilizing protesters to prevent entry..
I looked at Ki Young-min and asked.
“How much is involved with Jio Group??”
“I think it will be at least 10 trillion..”
It was an enormous unit. Even I, who am insensitive to money, think that there are many people..
“Here is the body.”
“That's how I see it.”
“My job is to make sure the investigation runs smoothly..”
“yes.”
Well then, I guess I'll just have to get this out of the way so I can investigate. First, I need to get rid of the annoying things..
Meanwhile, reporters were pointing their cameras at me and Ki Young-min..
Well, if I were to put it in real terms, would I become a superman who oppresses corporations??
They say that when such an image is added, it becomes difficult because the range of movement is reduced..
However, people's misconception is that I was managing my image not to expand my range of maneuver, but to do the bare minimum to avoid being treated as a villain..
Since I've been taking care of it so hard, I guess I should binge eat at least once..
First, we have to deal with the noisy protesters..
“Did someone mobilize those protesters too??”
“It's just a guess, but I think it's Geo Group's side..”
“I guess it's to make me and the 4th bureau's image look bad..”
“To be precise, this is limited to the four countries surveyed. Choi Jun-ho looked extremely scared..”
“Oh yeah?”
If you're afraid, why don't you do something in the first place?.
Anyway, those protesters are enemies who are interfering with my work. There is no reason to hesitate.
I started walking towards the protesters..
“Go away! Go away!”
“Stop! Stop! … omg!”
As I approached the protesters, I pulled out my Nuri and swung it. It wasn't a swordstorm, it was a swordstorm using the force..
The protesters caught in the storm fell like rotten straw. In the process, he suffered bruises and abrasions to his limbs..
“oh my! my legs!”
“A superhuman wields a sword at an innocent citizen.!”
“Their superhuman status should be revoked.!”
That decision is not yours to make..
He falls down and starts crying. The reporters were pressing the camera shutters as if they had caught a case, but I didn't care. If you took action on the side of those who were taking money from the country, you would end up on the same side..
I gave him one chance because he was an innocent civilian, but there will be no more..
I spoke to the protesters.
“It's clear that I'm the enemy. Now you're against me.”
“…….”
“I think you know how I treat my enemies. If you continue to side with those who have cost the country tens of trillions of dollars, I will make that belief precious. You put your beliefs into practice by protesting, and I put my beliefs into practice by using what I do best: cutting. Still, if you can, give it a try..”
“…….”
“Oh, here precious means death.”
I added something because I was afraid you wouldn't understand..
As if my worries were unfounded, the protesters' faces turned white and they became anxious to avoid eye contact with me..
Is there no one who can prove his beliefs by dying?.
“What, what! You didn't say it was like this!”
“That guy is a human butcher. We're really dying!”
“I don't do it! I didn't come here to throw away my life for a small amount of money.!”
“Now, wait a minute.!”
The people in charge raised their voices, but the protesters were dispersed faster..
It seemed like he had no intention of making his beliefs precious..
“Hehehe!”
The protest managers who made eye contact with me later also got scared and left the place. Still, I caught the last train. If you want to protect your life, you have to have that level of tact..
I returned to where Ki Young-min was..
“The protests are over, we'll settle that too..”
“Ah, yes.”
“But isn’t interfering with the investigation like that interfering with the execution of official duties??”
“Yes, that's right, but.”
“All right.”
In the end, you are supporting crime by colluding with criminals. Are villains a separate thing? If powerful people commit crimes, they are villains..
I cast Bladestorm towards the barricade..
It was a storm of swords, not a sword blast, aimed at protesters who were non-awakened..
From the moment I tried to swing Nuri, the awakened people guarding the barricade got scared and retreated..
Kwagwagwagwang!
The barricade collapsed with a huge explosion. The awakened people who could not escape the aftermath were swept up in the aftermath of the storm of blades and torn apart..
“…….”
patter!
The sight of blood and chunks of flesh pouring down on the floor created an eerie silence..
This is the end of those who interfere with the execution of official duties..
I took Nuri and walked closer. The awakened people who had been watching in a daze were shocked and stepped back..
But like the protesters, they don't leave their seats..
Should I kill them all??
As I was thinking about casting Bladestorm again, the front door of the Geo Group headquarters opened and an old man whose age was difficult to guess appeared with his attendants..
“stop! Everyone step back!”
“Meeting, Chairman!”
The awakened people guarding the barricades stepped aside..
The old man came straight to me..
“This is Geo Group Honorary Chairman Lee Jun-gu. Younghwan Kim is an in-law with a superhuman..”
I nodded at Ki Young-min’s words..
That old man was the mastermind behind this..
“My name is Lee Jun-gu, Choi Jun-ho Choin..”
“This is Junho Choi.”
“I didn't know you would come in person like this..”
“…….”
What are you saying?.
I highly value the ability of the honorary chairman to lead a conglomerate and come this far..
So I have no intention of mixing things up..
If I talk to you, I'll stop you.
“Just a brief matter.”
“…I will investigate. So I hope you save the others..”
“Of course.”
Because it's not a hematoma that kills everything in sight when you pull out a knife..
After taking care of Nuri, I looked at Ki Young-min and said,.
“Subdue them all. If you resist, you can kill me..”
That's the end of resistance.
The awakened members of the Geo Group lost the will to resist and were obediently arrested..
And the 4th investigation bureau, led by Ki Young-min, began to thoroughly look into a huge corruption group called Geo Group..
* * *
-During the period of marriage with superhuman Kim Young-hwan, Geo Group made illegal profits worth over 20 trillion won.…….
The capabilities of the four investigation bureaus were unrivaled. Ki Young-min brought important data, and when I used my intuition to distinguish it, I was able to quickly identify the route through which the illegal funds were flowing..
I twisted, twisted, and cut it in a complicated way, but thanks to the combination of my intuition and Ki Young-min's ability, I was able to reach the body in an instant..
It is said that a nuclear bomb has been dropped in the political world as the chairman of Geo Group is arrested and various funds flowing from here are revealed..
Can it develop into a gate or something?.
As a result, there is talk of a special investigation in the political world..
Well, I did everything I had to do, so I fell in peace..
“I like public power..”
If there is one thing I learned from this incident, public power is a great cause..
And when you become friends with competent people, things get done much faster..
If I had tried to solve it on my own, it would have taken more time and effort to start with the Fine Group and reach the Geo Group..
No, it could have been faster if I had used a more cool-headed approach.?
However, since I would not have been able to uncover corruption in every nook and cranny like Ki Young-min, I thought this kind of collaboration was not a bad idea..
“Has the image improved? Congratulations.”
“Thanks to.”
As Kim Young-hwan and Geo Group's corruption was revealed, Berserker's honor was restored..
The circumstances surrounding his attempt to turn Berserker into a villain were revealed..
In my opinion, he would have been a villain even if he wasn't Kim Young-hwan..
Just by looking at him, you can see that he is crazy. It's good that Berserker's image has been restored, but I felt like people weren't as perceptive as I thought..
But when the opportunity comes, you've got to stick it out.
In my personal broadcast, I said I was aware of the concerns about Berserker and mentioned my future plans..
“Berserker plans to act as a member of my team, not as a superhuman belonging to the country. We will do our best to repay you by eliminating more villains and hunting monsters..”
The reaction wasn't bad.
Even if he didn't become a villain, he was a current villain, and there must have been a lot of concerns about whether or not he would be controlled even if he was reinstated..
Come to think of it.
“If we had dug into Kim Young-hwan in the first place, we might have been able to get reinstated like this.?”
Although Dalian had a great influence, Kim Young-hwan's mothership played a decisive role..
Berserker made a bewildered expression after hearing what I said..
“Then why did I spar??”
“I know.”
“…….”
Hmm, maybe my answer was a bit careless.?
Still, I improved my skills while sparring, so isn't that a good thing for Berserker?.
A person like me doesn't spar with just anyone..
I keep feeling like my sparring is becoming a joke, but I guess I'll have to fix this soon..
But I think his expression is a bit solemn..
“Since we're a team, we shouldn't hold ourselves back..”
“huh?”
“That's my story.”
I dismissed it last time by saying I wasn't interested, but he's trying again..
Because everyone has secrets. I didn't even try to dig into it..
“So, I was living happily with a woman who loved me..”
No, it's okay.
But Berserker didn't pay attention to my reaction and started talking..
It's really okay.
