FBI leadership meeting.
The FBI Director of Information Technology reported.
“It was confirmed that the drones operated by BH at the time bombed.”
The voice of the FBI director who received it was full of unexpected feelings.
“bombing?”
It’s really an unusual story.
The world’s awareness is at its peak due to the war on terrorism.
The chief’s comments came out straight away.
“Isn’t it obvious that you got the government’s permission?”
“Yes. BH bombable drones, the government is not aware of anything.”
The chief’s expression turned serious.
It seems that it was not for nothing that the National Intelligence Service ordered this case in top secret and took care of it personally.
‘I’ll have to report it right away.’
The chief nodded.
“Okay. In the future, make sure that the BH’s illegal use of weapons is investigated. We’ll have to keep it secret so that we don’t get their attention.”
As much as the voice of the director was low, the attitude of the head of information technology became more cautious.
“Yeah. I’ll be very careful and take a closer look.”
The director looked at the screen and said.
“So is that the picture?”
“Yes. I have confirmed that there was a bombing in the mountains by the road in the fall and the Pacific coast west of San Francisco in the winter. Now this is a satellite image. The parts shown now are the parts that are presumed to be bombing tracks.”
The Minister of National Security, who was listening next to him, added an explanation.
“At that time, the frontline police just blocked the road without knowing English. Those who were pursuing BH bypassed the barricade and entered the mountain road, and after that, BH took care of everything. From the chase to the bombing and cleaning up. So The police don’t know, neither does the chief.”
“Did BH clear the scene?”
The head of the information technology department responds to the director’s words.
“That’s right. After analyzing the satellite imagery, I checked the site myself. This is a photo of the site.”
People on the left looking at the screen.
An explanation follows.
“Instead of sending agents directly in case of unforeseen surveillance, we checked the scene with a miniature reconnaissance drone.”
“Good job.”
“Obviously there are traces of the bombing. This part, and this part, is clear. But… nothing else is left.”
The director leaned back on the back of the chair and looked at them.
“I took it out myself, but there’s nothing special about it. That’s it here. I knew the BH was using this kind of force in secret. And then I knew that something so serious had happened.”
The chief, who paused for a moment, spoke again.
“So… the cops who barricaded confirmed that they were on the run, and what the BH was ostensibly referring to were they were industrial spies?”
The head of national security nodded.
“Yes. It’s hard to believe that straight up. It seems that he was a person who needed to be killed right away. Seeing that he was bombarding me.”
The thoughtful chieftain.
He seemed to know.
‘They’re definitely doing something in BH.’
Something that should never be revealed to the world.
Let’s say there were industrial espionage.
And even assuming he’s pulled something out of touch with their core competitiveness, isn’t the bombing too far-fetched?
It is doubtful that they had such a means in the first place.
And the National Intelligence Service seems to have already noticed something about it.
‘How the hell?’
There are 15 more US intelligence agencies under his umbrella.
Did some sort of information network catch this?
So are they better than the FBI?
He hurriedly cleared his mind, which was about to become more dizzy, and the director opened his mouth.
“I don’t know what happened at that bombing site, but is there someone pursuing you from BH? Then what about the investigation?”
The head of the information technology department nodded and opened his mouth.
“Yes. We are conducting an investigation focusing on that. First, we secured a list of BH employees and checked all of them. However, at this time, there were no records of overseas departures among the major employees. So, if someone escaped, it is assumed that they ran away secretly. , conducted a full investigation of U.S. departure records before and after the bombing date.”
The chief nodded as if he had to put in that much effort.
The head of information technology continued.
“Then, in the fall, I discovered a suspicious departure record. It was the same day that BH’s drone bombing occurred. There were four people who left on a private plane through the private plane terminal, and it was confirmed that they all used fake passports. was on its way to China. Hong Kong, changed course and landed in Shanghai.”
Coat of arms touching chin.
“Hmm, it’s China…”
A country in which the activities of the United States are extremely restricted.
It has been a long time since the CIA network based in China was discovered by the Chinese government.
Since then, we have been trying to establish an espionage network again, but the situation is not as good as it used to be.
‘Did you go to China for that?’
Currently, the front lines of the CIA’s operations against China and North Korea are in South Korea and South Korea.
Then added mention.
“And there are reports of terrorist attacks on BH overseas facilities.”
“Overseas facilities? Where?”
“Korea, China, Russia, Vietnam, India, Japan, Indonesia, etc.”
Quite a lot.
A question that naturally arises.
“Then why is nothing known?”
Why is it that such things have been buried silently in a country that is extremely sensitive to terrorism?
It was also in the yard where the attempted assassination of Bruce was buzzing.
The head of the information technology department nodded as if the director’s point was reasonable.
“It all seems to have been dealt with informally and self-managed.”
The chief thought for a moment and gave the order.
“…Send a secret request for cooperation to the intelligence authorities of our allies. Don’t tell us the reason, and never let the word leak out. If necessary, put pressure on the leaders of the respective regimes.”
“All right.”
“We should also conduct our own investigation. Give orders to our Korean branch. As a top priority. For the CIA, I will deliver it directly to the director.”
As he looked at the senior leaders finishing the meeting, the director uttered a heavy tone of words.
“Again, to my old woman, this is a top-secret matter. If even one small thing is leaked… Bear in mind that there will be huge penalties. It will be treated as treason. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Don’t worry. We are conducting the investigation in secret with only a small number of elite personnel. We pay the most attention to ensuring that our approach is not exposed. In addition, due to the martial law situation, we are able to speak out both inside and outside. Our side There will be no leaks of movement.”
“Yeah. You guys put in a lot of hard work. If something meaningful comes out, there will be enough rewards for it. It’s a top priority for all American intelligence agencies. Let’s show our skills.”

Korea National Intelligence Service.
Director of the National Intelligence Service.
Outwardly, he was at the ministerial level, but in terms of his influence, he was the equivalent of a deputy prime minister.
He is a close aide to the current President of the Republic of Korea.
Such a director called the first and second vice presidents at the same time.
The first deputy manager is in charge of overseas affairs, and the second deputy manager is in charge of domestic affairs.
Both of them were stalwarts in the National Intelligence Service, and had a semi-ministerial level of influence stronger than the vice-minister.
It is a situation where the key executives of the National Intelligence Service have gathered in one place.
“The request came from the CIA.”
At those words, the first chief looked at the head of the department.
Overseas, because he is the general manager.
Of course, all normal liaison and cooperation with the CIA are also carried out by the organizations under the first deputy chief.
‘What’s going on?’
This unusual approach means only one thing.
That is how important it is.
“What kind of request?”
The principal answered the question of the first vice president.
“There was an explosion at BH’s Korean facility, and they want you to hand over all the relevant information. And not only that, but all the other unusual things.”
“BH?”
their country’s company.
But why are you asking us that?
‘Hmm… .’
But as if he didn’t want to talk for a long time, the director finished his speech.
“Second-General. Investigate this matter with the highest priority and report it immediately. The first-deputy chief also actively cooperates with the second. If there is a more practical request from the CIA, it should be responded to with the highest priority.”
* * *
The expressionless face of the second chief.
Contrary to its appearance, the inside is quite dissatisfying.
But is there anything special about taking a picture and pressing it as a job title?
It was the investigation room under the 2nd deputy chief who hadtily started the investigation.
The position where the second deputy chief receives the report.
“Have you ever been?”
“Yes. It was confirmed that there was an explosion at the facility of BH Real Korea around the beginning of winter last year.”
“The reason is?”
“That’s… I don’t know.”
“why?”
“BH took care of it on its own.”
“There was an explosion? But what self-remedies?”
That is unacceptable.
“I think there was a lobby in the back.”
“To whom?”
“I’m the fire chief.”
He is the highest rank in the fire department.
That is, it is a single person.
If he had given the order, the firefighters on the scene would have had no choice but to withdraw.
The second commander sighed inwardly.
I don’t know exactly what happened, but anyway, the fire chief was somehow connected with BH.
either directly or across.
‘Ttt… .’
However, handing over this kind of information to the CIA is literally putting shit on the face of the country.
‘I’m not asking for this… .’
Thinking about it, it was the second chief who suddenly raised his head in the anger he had been holding down.
He didn’t even tell me what the hell he was doing.
I don’t even know the background, but does it make sense to give it all up unconditionally?
That’s at least what I should tell you.
Why do you do it, what do you want?
I don’t know that, but I want to be nice, but how do I properly cooperate?
‘under… .’
What comes to mind is the manager’s face.
When I see you order things… It’s not just one or two times when I’m frustrated.
No, it’s much easier to find a time when you’re not bored.
The same goes for this time.
If the president appointed him to come by parachute, he would only care about making the president look good.
Why do you keep asking questions and giving directions that don’t work?
I have nothing to say to the manager who is standing in front and waiting for my answer.
The second lieutenant got up from his seat and said.
“I’ll talk to the manager.”
* * *
“No meaningful information?”
At the question of the director, the inside of the second vice president twitches.
A voice that sounds like an interrogation.
But a calm tone different from the inside came out of his mouth.
“But doesn’t that mean that the fire chief said the explosion was crushed by BH’s lobbying?”
“……”
A manager with no response.
The second chief looked at him and said.
“I don’t know what the US wants, but I just give as much as I know in moderation and shake my hand.”
Then the manager’s mouth opens.
But the words you hear are unexpected.
“Second-General. Do a thorough investigation of BH again. So, whatever it is, make sure you have meaningful information. And don’t miss out on anything out of the ordinary after this point.”
The second chief immediately responded.
“Director. Isn’t the CIA telling you why you’re making such a strange request? Besides, it’s BH. That BH. If the NIS’s name is circulated badly in connection with it, it will be severely criticized worldwide.”
A company admired by people all over the world.
It is the most difficult object to work with.
By the way, is the US intelligence agency requesting information about the Korean facility of such a domestic company?
What the hell is your intention?
Is it to protect BH or to suppress BH?
This is not a request for cooperation.
Isn’t your posture bad?
It cannot be regarded as a fair bargain.
At that time, the low voice of the director shook the thoughts of the second vice president.
“Acting President William of the United States made a secret, direct phone call to the President.”
“yes?”
It is surprising that the second vice-chief is buried in the Banmun Gate.
It was quite unexpected.
What the heck does this mean for you to level up to that level?
“The president called me directly. He had clear instructions to do everything he could ask for.”
Unless directed by the president, the National Intelligence Service must unconditionally handle this matter first.
“So, don’t fuss any more and give me whatever you want in the US. And find out about all the BH-related things. Okay?”
