A slush fund worth trillions of won.
While watching the last days of Cheon Young-jin, I heard a tempting story.
His father, Cheon Tae-soo, has hidden a lot of gold and cash in a secret place somewhere.
‘And that means that Director Kim knows the location of the place.’
The number of cases where gold can be obtained is growing one after another.
Besides, this one was very large.
Compared to Chairman Cheon’s slush fund, the gold and money stolen from Baekga and Chun Young-jin were nothing more than child’s play.
If you eat that much, you will really not have to stress over gold for the next few years.
‘good!’
But it’s too early to like it.
Chairman Chun’s gold and money hadn’t come into my hands yet.
In order to access the slush fund, I had to put it in my hands starting with managing director Kim.
With my current skills, it wasn’t difficult to break through the triad camp and take away managing director Kim.
But I wouldn’t do things so hastily.
‘There’s no need to rush, right?’
If you calmly observe their movements, a suitable opportunity will come.

The name of the mid-boss was Ma Cheonhwa.
He said to his subordinates while holding Kim’s hand.
“[You guys organize the rest.]”
Chun Yong-jin’s henchmen, who couldn’t understand Ma Chun-hua’s Cantonese, heard the gunfire from the machine gun and realized what kind of sentence they had been sentenced to by the triads.
Except for Kim, all other Koreans were subject to execution.
hard-
hard-
Kak!
evil!
Gunshots and screams of death mingled, and all of Cheon Young-jin’s men died.
Managing Director Kim, who was the only survivor, completely froze as he saw the devastation unfolding in front of his eyes.
Ma Cheon-hwa asked Mr. Kim.
“[Where is it?]”
“[yes?]”
“[Where is Chairman Chun hiding the slush fund?]”
“[That, that…]”
Managing Director Kim, who had opened his mouth without realizing it, regained his senses and closed it again.
Witnessing the scene of the slaughter, I was in a state of mind, so I almost told the place where the slush fund was hidden.
If you say it so easily, your fate will also be the same as that of the henchmen.
There was no way the Triads would spare me, who had lost its usefulness.
‘I entered the tiger’s jaw, so I have to be alert to survive!’
Managing Director Kim broke into a cold sweat and forced a smile at the mid-boss.
“[You’re being mischievous to give me the only lifeline I’m holding.]”
Then the middle boss shook his head with a shameless expression.
“[oh my! You misunderstood! I thought we had already become friends, so I asked casually, but I guess it wasn’t Mr. Kim. Was I too hasty?]”
“[I’m not as broad-minded as Mr. Ma.]”
Ma Cheonhwa smiled and continued.
“[Then let’s talk about that later…]”
Ma Chun-hwa moved toward the truck of the wholesaler.
Then he looked into the cargo hold and muttered.
“[This is so strange…]”
He turned his head and asked Mr. Kim.
“[Were there really no items in the truck to begin with?]”
“[You’ve been eavesdropping, so you know that. Gold never existed. If there was, how would you have moved that heavy thing in a short time?”
“[That’s true, but…. It’s strange, there was obviously.]”
When the gold was loaded onto the truck, Ma Tianhua was also there with Mr. Wang, a wholesaler.
Two tons of gold was taken from the Triad’s ‘secret safe’.
From noble mtl dot com
In order to open the vault’s door, Mr. Wang, who controls the finances of Chi-Lye Jiao Island, and Ma Tian-Hwa, who holds the military power, had to join together.
Ma Chun-hwa saw with her own eyes the gold being loaded into the truck.
And while Mr. Wang led the truck, the listening device installed in his limousine continued to operate.
So I know.
That there was nothing suspicious on the truck’s journey to this place.
But the gold disappeared as if evaporating.
‘This is strange… No way!’
An uneasy feeling penetrated Ma Cheonhwa’s brain.
Anxiety that there might be a loophole in their security of managing the secret safe.
If that’s really the case, this isn’t normal.
Because there is a huge amount of gold ingots piled up there.
Now was not the time to be preoccupied with stealing Chairman Chun’s slush funds.
‘We have to catch the rats in our barn first.’
Ma Cheonhwa said to Managing Director Kim.
“[We’ll take you to the hotel. You must be tired, so get some rest and see you tomorrow.”
“[all right.]”
Director Kim was relieved inwardly.
Anyway, it looks like his life is at stake tonight.
“[Yangchen!]”
At Ma Cheonhwa’s call, his men came running.
“[Yes, Mr. Ma!]”
“[Take Mr. Kim to our hotel.]”
“[All right.]”
humming-
The sedan carrying Managing Director Kim got out of the car wash.
Ma Chun-hwa also got into his car.
“[Let’s go to the temple.]”
humming-
Ma Chun-hwa’s car started.
.
.
.
‘They’re splitting up.’
Choi Min-hyeok, who was hiding nearby and watching, was worried.
Will you follow the car carrying Kim, or will you follow Ma Chun-hwa?
Choi Min-hyeok did not know that Ma Cheon-hwa was heading to the ‘secret safe’.
However, through ＜Detection＞, I noticed his complex change of heart.
And I’ve been curious since before.
Where did the wholesaler get the 2 tons of gold?
If you go to that place, maybe there will be more gold.
‘It smells like gold.’
It would be nice to pursue both Kim and Ma Chun-hwa at the same time, but unfortunately, Choi Min-hyeok’s body was one.
‘It’s finally time to play as a team.’
He will have Golem chase Kim, and he will chase Ma Cheon-hwa.
For the time being, Executive Director Kim will not open his mouth to the triads easily.
You only need to prepare for unexpected situations by having the golem watch him.
And in the meantime, he will pursue Ma Cheonhwa.
dump-
Minhyuk Choi sat cross-legged on the ground.
And I gently closed my eyes.
After a while,
through-
he opened his eyes
Then he came down from the roof of the building to the ground.
No one was left at the car wash.
The triads had loaded the corpses into the car and left.
Minhyuk Choi stretched out his hand toward the air.
hiss-
Kim Seo-yeon appeared.
She was riding her bike in a motorcycle suit.
I had several motorcycles in my inventory to use at times like this.
It was an unregistered motorcycle without license plates.
Minhyuk Choi said to Seoyeon Kim.
“You know what to do?”
“Yes, leave it to me!”
If you want your team members to do the work, you should definitely brief them in advance.
Shortly before, Choi Min-hyeok activated ＜Sleep＞ while lying cross-legged and entered a lucid dream.
And in ＜Room of Leisure＞, she fully explained her mission to Kim Seo-yeon.
I gave the briefing for over an hour, but not even a minute passed outside.
“Operation begins!”
humming-
Kim Seo-yeon drove a motorcycle and disappeared outside the car wash.
Even if the golem and its owner are far apart, they can exchange information with each other through ＜Sympathy＞.
Choi Min-hyeok can remotely inform the golem of Kim’s location, which he found out through ＜Detection＞.
With that location information, Kim Seo-yeon can easily monitor Kim.
‘Shall I start too?’
hiss-
Minhyuk Choi pulled out another motorcycle.
burrung-
And got on it and started it up.
humming-
Choi Min-hyeok started chasing Ma Cheon-hwa.

If you follow the mountain road at the junction of Chilejiao Island, where Hong Kong Airport is located, and Lantau Island, where Disneyland is located, you will come across an old temple.
It’s an ordinary temple that no one pays attention to, but in fact, it was a place where the gold of the Triad was kept.
Until the 1980s, the Triads exercised unbridled power in collusion with corrupt government officials and police officers.
At that time, one of the main businesses of the triads was a ‘security company’, and all gold and silver shops and pawnshops in Hong Kong were their customers.
If the security company set up by the triads didn’t protect them, a hundred robbers would have gone.
The employees of the security company were also members of the triad, and the robbers were also members of the triad, so it was only natural.
That’s how they were able to collect huge protection fees from the goldsmiths.
The protection fee was received mainly in gold, but it was hidden in the temple.
The amount of gold they collected over the decades was staggering.
In modern times, whenever the party secretary of the Chinese Communist Party changes, the Triads are beaten like a regular event, and the reason why they were able to recover quickly without completely disintegrating despite losing tens of thousands of members each time was because of that gold.
It is not difficult to increase the number of members as long as there is money.
In a word, the gold stored in the temple was the life-giving water of the Triad.
‘Please, I hope everything is fine.’
Ma Chun-hwa was anxious.
Since 2 tons of gold had already disappeared, it was impossible to avoid reprimand from the upper level.
Mr. Wang is responsible for this incident, but since he is already dead, it is his own responsibility.
The reason why Ma Cheon-hwa was treated more generously by the superiors than mid-bosses in other regions of the same position was because there was a temple in his district.
It has been recognized for its efforts to protect the temple.
So if there is a problem with the tens of tons of gold bars in the temple, you have to vomit all the treats you have received so far.
His position was not shaken, and he had to sacrifice himself.
kiik-
The car stopped in front of the temple.
Ma Chun-hwa got out of the car and climbed the stairs alone.
The temple here looks ordinary from the outside, but there are guard posts everywhere and they are armed with machine guns.
Even a triad official who engages in suspicious behavior is shot by a machine gun and turned into a beehive.
Climbing all the stairs and reaching the door, the monk came out and was greeted with a demonic fire.
“[What are you doing at this hour?]”
“[I need to check the safe.]”
The monk shook his head.
“[Didn’t Mr. Wang come with you? You can enter only when the two of you are together.]”
“[Mr. Wang is dead.]”
“[Amitabha Buddha….]”
“[So please open the door.]”
“[Follow the principles. Teacher Wang has a problem, so please come with a new person in charge appointed by headquarters.]”
Ma Chun-hwa also knew the rules well.
But I couldn’t wait until then.
The uneasy feeling that someone was aiming for their gold did not go away.
No, maybe there’s already a problem with gold.
“[This is a very urgent situation! Someone is after our gold! Are you going to take responsibility if something goes wrong?]”
“[Fix it. No matter how you do it, you can’t break the rules. Contact headquarters and follow instructions.]”
“[Aww, that’s frustrating! really!]”
It was then.
hiss-
Suddenly, a human figure appeared in front of them.
It was a man wearing a motorcycle suit and a black helmet.
“[Who are you?]”
Ma Cheonhwa reflexively pulls out a pistol and tries to aim at him.
“Stay still.”
The words that came out of the man’s mouth were not Cantonese.
But surprisingly, Ma Cheonhwa was able to understand what the words meant.
And what’s even more surprising is that I couldn’t really move my body as the man said.
“[Uh, how?!]”
Caught in ＜control＞, Ma Cheonhwa widened her eyes.
Choi Min-hyeok ordered the monk this time.
“Take me to the safe.”
Then the monk took the lead and started walking.
