Chairman Cheon’s son came out of the field office.
I went through the corridor and arrived at the elevator.
On the opposite side of the elevator we came down from earlier, there was an elevator that went down deeper into the basement.
ugh-
I rode it and finally arrived at Chairman Chun’s ‘Underground Royal Palace’.
When I came out of the elevator, it was dark and I couldn’t see anything.
Not a single light was on here.
‘Light.’
pat-
I illuminated the surroundings with light magic.
Then an open space came into sight.
Zones were marked in huge letters on the far wall.
＜Area D＞
This was District D of the 12 residential districts.
To be precise, it was the lobby of District D.
I looked at ＜Estimated Completion＞ and confirmed that there was a lobby in each area.
When I arrived, it was really spacious.
It was dozens of times the size of a typical middle and high school auditorium.
And dozens of corridors stretched out around the lobby.
A number was marked at the beginning of each hallway.
＜No. 13＞
Chairman Chun’s son entered hallway 13.
Doors with license plates were lined up on both sides of the hallway.
thump-
After walking for a while, he stopped in front of a door.
＜No. 54＞
Room 54 in Hallway 13 in Area D.
This was the place where Chairman Chun hid the slush fund.
It would have taken a long time to search through thousands of rooms to find this place.
Thanks to Chairman Chun’s son coming here, things were solved very easily.
There was a number pad on the steel door to enter the password.
Belt- Belt- Belt- Belt-
He entered the 4-digit passcode.
The password was ‘7989’.
clap-
The door is open.
I went into the room
The inside was quite spacious.
A container was placed in the center of the room.
‘Is that slush fund?’
It was a bit strange.
Chairman Chun’s slush fund goes into just one container?
‘For now, let’s check the inside.’
The container door was locked with a large padlock.
But you don’t need a key to open the door.
I reached for the lock.
‘acceptance.’
hiss-
The lock went into the inventory.
Now that the lock is gone, just open the door.
It was one of the various uses of the inventory.
clap-
I opened the container door and went inside.
Then I saw gold bars piled up on the floor.
Next to it was a pile of cash, including Korean currency, dollars, and yen.
Gold ingots and currencies from various countries were exactly what Kim said.
but,
‘What’s written like this?’
Chairman Cheon’s slush fund was much smaller than he thought.
There are 60 10kg gold ingots, which was about 40 billion won in today’s market price.
And there are 1,000 bundles of 50,000 won bills, so 5 billion,
There are 500 bundles of 100 dollars, so 5 million dollars,
Including yen and yuan, the cash amount was about 20 billion won.
If you add all the gold and cash, it was about 60 billion won.
‘Are you kidding me?’
60 billion won was by no means a small amount of money.
It was enough money to completely change the life of a common man.
The problem is that I am no longer an ordinary person.
Even the dollars stolen from Chun Young-jin in Hong Kong amounted to more than 100 billion won in Korean currency.
So, Chairman Chun’s slush fund should be much more than that.
But it’s only 60 billion won.
‘for a moment.’
Some words from Kim’s words crossed my mind.
‘Distributed investment?’
Chairman Chun said that he was very fond of diversified investments.
That’s why they not only divided their property into several countries, but they are also building facilities like this in preparation for war.
So, the slush funds here may also be stored in dozens of rooms, not just one room.
‘Then it makes sense.’
If there are 50 such rooms, the size of the slush fund reaches 3 trillion won.
That was an amount suitable for Cheon’s slush fund.
hiss-
First of all, he absorbed all the gold in front of his eyes.
And the cash was put in the inventory.
Then I went out of the room and stood in front of the door to the other room on the other side.
Maybe all of the rooms around here contain gold and cash.
You don’t have to enter a password to open the door.
I put my hand on the door
‘acceptance.’
hiss-
The entire iron door went into the inventory.
Then, the room was opened coolly.
‘Inventory best!’
When I went inside, there was also a container placed here.
hiss-
As before, I put the lock in my inventory and opened the container door.
However, it contained only canned fruit, not gold bars and cash.
I went out into the hallway again.
And in the same way, I checked a few more nearby rooms.
It contained only alcohol, preserved food, and daily necessities.
hmm-
I ordered Chairman Chun’s son.
“Take me to another room where the slush fund is hidden.”
But the guy took no action.
They do not know the location of the other room where the secret money is hidden.
If this is the case, it is one of the two.
Really, this is all slush funds,
Or, Chairman Chun only gave his son the location of the room where the slush fund was hidden.
Probably the former is highly unlikely.
Chairman Chun’s slush fund is only 60 billion won, which is absurd.
There must be slush funds hidden in other hallway rooms in other districts.
In the end, in order to know the location, he had to lure Chairman Chun to this place.
Things are back to square one.
‘sh*t!’
If Chairman Cheon’s son had not known the location of the slush fund, he would have called Chairman Cheon earlier and lured him to this place.
was just wasting time
No, since I got 60 billion won in less than an hour, isn’t it a waste of time?
Anyway, it was very strange.
Why did Chairman Cheon tell his son the location of only one slush fund?
‘Why did you do that?’
Maybe if you look into the memories of President Chun’s son, you’ll understand why.
I put my hand on his head.
I will use my newly learned magic.
Perhaps the answer lies in his 24-hour memory.
‘Memory read.’
pat-
A flash of light flashed in front of his eyes, then faded.
And the memory of him flooded into my head.
**
When Chun Young-soo went to his home in Seongbuk-dong at the call of Chairman Chun,
“You, angel, also go down for a while.”
“An angel too?”
“There will be uninvited guests.”
President Chun put his hand on Chun Young-soo’s shoulder and whispered softly.
“Kill them all.”
Then, he handed the photo he was holding to Chun Young-soo.
From noble mtl dot com
Chun Young-soo looked at the picture and opened his mouth.
“Isn’t this the managing director Kim Yeong-chan?”
Chairman Chen nodded.
“That’s right, he gave my slush fund information to the Triads.”
“Slush funds?”
Except for a very few subordinates, Chairman Chun had never told his blood relatives about his slush funds.
Of course, it was the first time Chun Young-soo had heard of it.
“You know that angels are also building air-raid shelters underground, right?”
“Yes, I know that.”
Chun Yeong-soo borrowed money from a loan company he managed and sent those who could not pay back to Angel Island.
Some of them had their organs harvested and others were put into labor.
So, I was already familiar with the construction of underground facilities.
“I put some money in there. About 5 trillion won in gold and cash.”
Chun Young-soo was dizzy when he heard the size of the slush fund from Chairman Cheon.
Recently, the assets of Korea’s top chaebols were being counted at around 10 trillion won.
But the slush fund is 5 trillion won.
Even he, who has touched money, did not feel well about the amount of money in trillions.
“Those from the Triads are going to come to the angels for my slush funds. But even if they come, it’s not easy to find the slush fund. Of the more than 10,000 rooms in the underground shelter, only a few dozen contain gold and money. They’ll be rats wandering through mazes looking for cheese. And you’re going to be the cat hunting that rat, you know what I mean?”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Chun Young-soo understood Chairman Chun’s words and nodded.
“Take this.”
Chairman Cheon handed over a memo to Cheon Young-soo.
It had letters and numbers written on it.
＜D/13/54/7989＞
“What is this.”
“It’s hard work. I’m going to do a big job, but my father should take care of that much.”
Chun Yeong-su, who roughly understood what was written on the memo, put it in the inside pocket of his jacket.
“We have prepared a helicopter, so take the necessary personnel and equipment and go down to Angel Island right away. And when you catch all the rats, report to me. Then I will go down to the Angel Road right away. I can’t go down because of them right now.”
President Chun had some business at Angel Island, but he couldn’t go there because of the Triad.
“Yes, Chairman! We will take care of it ASAP!”
Chun Young-soo greets the chairman and is about to turn around,
“Oh, and one more.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
“If, conversely, you should be prepared in case you get beaten by a rat.”
“yes?”
“The rats might use you to lure me in. If you catch me, you can find out the location of the slush fund.”
It was said that the triads could use Chun Young-soo to fool Chairman Chun himself.
Hearing those words, Chun Young-soo shook his head with a solemn expression.
“I will bite my tongue and die on the spot rather than being used by them and causing trouble to the president!”
heh heh heh-
Chairman Chen smiled broadly.
“Is there anything like that? We just need to create a password that only the two of us know.”
“A password?”
“Always tell me the password when reporting to me. Then don’t believe your report. If you don’t tell me the password, I’ll know that you’re caught by the Triads and forced to report to me falsely.”
In a word, when reporting something, if you tell me the password, it’s the truth, otherwise it’s a lie.
It was a simple, yet quite useful method.
“All right. But what should be the password?”
Chairman Chun came up to Chun Young-soo and whispered in his ear.
“fish bread.”
Hearing those words, memories from when he was a child flashed through Chun Young-soo’s mind.
When I lived alone with my mother in Masan, there was a man who came to visit me from time to time.
It was Chairman Chen.
At the time, I didn’t know he was my father.
Every time Chairman Cheon came, he bought Taiyaki.
When her mother and Cheon entered the master bedroom alone and locked the door, Cheon Young-soo ate taiyaki in the living room alone.
“Did you like that?”
Chun Young-soo nodded at Chairman Chun’s question.
**
‘Okay, that’s it!’
I removed my hand from Cheon Young-soo’s head.
Got all the information you need.
As expected, the slush funds were stored in dozens of rooms.
Besides, 5 trillion won, that was very good.
In addition, I came to know a situation that I did not know.
‘Work is fun.’
Chairman Cheon knew that Mr. Kim was alive.
But he didn’t know that he had run away from the Triads.
So Chairman Cheon thought that the Triads would come to the angelic road for his slush funds.
In fact, the triads only know about the existence of slush funds, but they have no idea that it is in the Angel Island.
‘I’m glad I waited until Cheon Young-soo came.’
Before Cheon Young-soo arrived here, if he had reported the collapse of the ground or the workers’ riot to Chairman Cheon through the warden at that time, he would not have been deceived.
Chairman Chun was very nervous as he was wary of the triads.
I would have double- or triple-checked any report.
But now I can fool him.
Because Chun Young-soo is in my hand.
And they both know their own password.
I took Cheon Young-soo and returned to the director’s office where the hotline was located.
Now all you have to do is call President Chun to tell him that you have captured the Triads.
Then he will come flying in a helicopter right away.
But I won’t be contacting you right now.
If you contact me too quickly, you can buy suspicion.
I sat in a chair and waited quietly for time to pass.
.
.
.
the next afternoon,
I ordered Chun Young-soo.
“Call Dad and tell him to come quickly because he’s got all the Triads.”
The guy caught ＜control＞ and picked up the receiver.
I added one more word to him.
“And tell them not to forget to buy Taiyaki when they come.”
