76. Seon Eighty-Three
I got out of the house and looked into the apartment parking lot and found a car with a familiar license plate.
smart!
When I knocked on the door on the passenger side, the dark tinted window went down slightly, and I heard a familiar voice from inside the car.
“long time no see? The car door is not locked. get on!”
I opened the door and sat down and said.
“Long time no see! Didn’t you come once a month?”
Team leader Kim Jung-soo has a total of three cars.
Maybe it’s the same car with only three license plates.
Team leader Kim Jeong-soo used to come around once a month in front of Bukseo High School or near Incheol’s house in Building 105.
At first, there were times when I knocked on the window with pleasure,
There was no reaction even when the ignition was on, and since then, I have just pretended not to know either.
When I asked if he would come once a month, he smiled and opened his mouth.
“haha! Did you know?”
“I know you have three cars.”
“How did you know that? It’s time to change the license plate again. haha!”
What makes you have multiple cars?
Out of curiosity, I told him.
“By the way, team leader, there is an AK restriction that you have been employed in the past. Are you still working there?”
“ah… ! Did I say that I was an AK constraint back then?”
“yes.”
“Now I work for KJ Pharmaceuticals.”
“KJ Pharmaceuticals? But can I ask what you do there?”
“I’m just doing stuff. I manage drug development, sell it, and so on.”
Do you work in drug development management and sales?
But if you look at the clothes the team leader is wearing now, it wasn’t the kind of clothes that managers or sales staff would wear.
I looked at Team Leader Kim Jung-soo with suspicious eyes, and the team leader said with a smirk.
“But you’re more calm than you think?”
“yes? What?”
“Have you seen the news yet? I came up this morning… .”
“ah… ! I just saw it.”
I continued with a bitter smile.
“I thought it was going to happen someday.”
Two years ago, I made the decision to go out into the world with the support of my major older sister and Professor Park Bo-soo.
Of course, I never expected to be branded as a redneck in this way, but my real name was not mentioned in an article on the Internet, and I don’t think it’s that bad compared to when an article about evading military service was posted in the past.
Rather, because of this incident, the contract with the Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs was canceled and I was worried that it would cause damage to Yunseong Soft.
Team leader Kim Jung-soo breathed a short sigh as he saw my calm appearance.
“Do you not know how scary red scabs are in Korea?”
To be honest, I don’t find the word red so scary.
It was also because of the memories of my past life when I lived in the 2000s, and among my peers, there were actually very few children with a strong anti-communist spirit.
When the comedy movie ＜Spy Ri Chol-jun> was released a few months ago, North Korean accents were very popular at school.
“is that so? I don’t know if it’s that scary.”
“By the way, you’re talking about a company called Yunseong Soft, where is Incheol working part-time?”
“yes that’s right.”
“Does In-cheol like to work there?”
“I like it very much. I’m hoping that I will live in the office there after the entrance exam is over.”
“Is that enough?”
In response to my answer of yes, team leader Kim Jeong-soo did not say anything as if he was thinking about something.
He opened his mouth after a brief silence.
“For a while, I was trying not to interfere, but I need to help with this.”
“What do you mean to help?”
At my question, Team Leader Kim Jung-soo smiled and said.
“Even if I can’t do anything else, I’ll be able to delete records.”
“Are you going to delete internet news?”
“No, your identity record.”
“that is… Is it possible?”
Instead of answering my question, team leader Kim Jeong-soo smiled and I thought he was joking.
“But how did you get involved with the fortune teller reporter?”
Fortune teller journalist?
Team leader Kim Jung-soo continued with my curious expression.
“It’s reporter So Su-jeong. You have a big dot under your right eye.”
I shook my head and said.
“A dot? I do not know. It wasn’t there when I saw it.”
“okay? It’s not a common name, maybe it’s someone else’s?”
I remember meeting So-Jeong reporter last Sunday, but she had no spots on her face.
“Maybe someone else? Obviously there were no spots on his face.”
the next morning.
Yoon-seok hyung called.
– It’s Jeongho! Are you okay?
“yes I’m okay.”
-Did you see the internet news yesterday?
“Yes, I saw it.”
– I’m sorry, Jeongho.
“What do you have to be sorry for? The reporter rushed in with determination, but there was nothing he could do about it. ah… ! Still, I’m glad the photos went down.”
When I checked the internet article again last night, the photo of me and Yoon Seok-hyung had disappeared from the article.
For your reference, in the article, it is stated that the name of the older brother is Sungsoft J CEO Yoon Sung, and my name is Director C, so we did not reveal our specific personal information.
-That’s what I called the newspaper last night.
“ah… ! So the picture was taken down. But the name of Yunseong Soft was still there, right?”
At my words, Yoon-seok hyung let out a short sigh and said.
-I asked you to take it down too, but there seems to be no legal problem with using the company name.
Your brother would be right.
Although the infringement of the right of portrait is clearly an illegal act, the newspaper had no reason to remove the company name, Yunseong Soft, from the article.
The public opinion in the comments on the Internet article was quite serious.
The majority of comments were to terminate the contract of the Missing Child program, and even a boycott of V-Stop was starting.
At the words I was worried about, I could hear Yoon Seok-yi hyung’s laughter over the receiver.
-ha ha ha! I was actually a little worried, so I checked the company’s server, and yesterday’s article came out and the number of V-Stop downloads increased tremendously.
“Really?”
– Yeah, I was a little surprised too.
“That’s nice.”
-Oh yeah… ! I got a call from the police station today. Actually, I’m calling you to tell you this.
“What contact?”
-Have you ever had a background check result? They said there was a problem with the paperwork.
“Is it a problem?”
– Is there any woman who married your father? The record that his father defected to North Korea was wrong. Of course, he wasn’t even in a high-ranking position in North Korea.
“… !”
– According to the police station staff, I was really sorry that there was a mistake.
It is not known whether the father of the woman who married her father was a high-ranking North Korean official, but it was true that he had defected to North Korea.
Two years ago, shortly after the results of the background check, I visited my father’s house.
I told the aunt that her father was still alive in North Korea, and when she heard the news, she didn’t know how much she cried that day.
She cried like that and told me the story of how her father had fled North Korea a long time ago.
What team leader Kim Jung-soo said last night is not a joke.
Deleting the identity record of a former police officer at the rank of first lieutenant general would be impossible.
Say you work for a pharmaceutical company.
Isn’t that a lie?
Yoon Seok-yi hyung’s voice came over the receiver.
-Jungho, are you okay?
“ah… ! yes I’m okay.”
-I’m not going to stand still! You must make a mistake. Because of this, Jung-ho, you haven’t been able to work for Michael Security all this time.
“… .”
-This time, from being threatened by a reporter to posting a news article with false facts, I really can’t get past this. I’m looking for a lawyer right now… .
I cut off my brother’s words and said.
“Brother, I want you to just quietly pass this matter over.”
I do not know which method was used, but it is certain that Team Leader Kim Jung-soo manipulated my identity record.
However, I thought that the situation could become more complicated if you even hire a lawyer to make your business go wild.
I continued talking.
“Unless the contract with the Ministry of Public Administration and Security is canceled, I don’t want it to make a big deal.”
So, after talking on the phone with Yoon Seok-hyung, I started searching on the computer.
KJ Pharmaceuticals.

No search results are found.
Also… Ghost Is your company?
One thing is certain: Team leader Kim Jung-soo has falsified my identity record.
Is this something an anonymous pharmaceutical company employee could do?
To do something like this… .
Shouldn’t I at least work for an intelligence agency like the National Intelligence Service?
That was then.
The doorbell rang, and after a while I heard my mother’s voice.
“Jeong-ho, your classmates are here.”
When I went out the front door, I was startled.
Friends playing soccer together at lunchtime were gathered in front of the door.
Besides, they were all children living in the northwest, not in the southwest.
“you… It’s vacation, what made you come here?”
One of my friends looked at me and said,
“Five! Director C has arrived.”
“Director C! Long time no see!”
My mother doesn’t know anything about internet articles.
I quickly put on my shoes and went outside, closed the front door and said in a low voice.
“what? you! Did you come all the way here after seeing the news?”
They started answering my questions.
“I came here because I was worried that I might be squeezing… Jung-ho, is this child better than I thought?”
“a! Then you just came!”
“ah… ! Then I left.”
“Comrade C! There is a saying that they are male and female, so please introduce me to some North Korean female students!”
“Ugh! This crazy guy can’t understand the atmosphere, he always overdos it like this! Is your head really useless except for heading? huh? Think about it, think about it!”
“We don’t call it a heading in our North Korea. They say take your head, take your head!”
“Pu ha ha ha—!”
We moved to the apartment playground, and I had to listen to a strange consolation of jokes and teasing from my friends.
I looked around the friends who even came to my house for me.
these guys… It was a vacation, and I took a bus from early morning to Namseo-dong.
From the moment I saw the internet news yesterday, it seems that my chest, which has been clogged up, is gradually loosening.
and my nickname.

Now it seems to have completely changed from 2nd grade 1st place to C director.
After having lunch with my friends at a snack bar, I returned home, packed my books and notebooks, and headed to Youngmi’s house.
When I got to Youngmi’s house, Youngmi took my hand and said in a low voice.
“Jeong-ho, come here for a second.”
Yeong-mi led my hand into her room, closed the door, and said.
“Jeong-ho, there’s a computer company you work for.”
“Yunseong Soft?”
Youngmi nodded and said.
“Isn’t that the missing child program that the company made?”
ah… ! Youngmi also saw the article.
My mother and Yeongmi wanted this incident to pass without knowing… .
I swallowed a bitter smile and nodded, and Youngmi continued.
“Eunseong found the missing child through the program, right?”
I still nodded with a bitter expression on my face, and Yeong-mi continued.
“And Eun-seong is the boss of the company, right?”
“That’s right.”
In response to my answer, Youngmi opened her mouth with a serious expression.
“Do you know Silver Castle?”

No, why all of a sudden Silver Castle?
“Of course you know. But Yeong-mi, are you also watching ＜Synapse>?”
“Who doesn’t watch ＜Synapse> these days? But that’s not the point.”
“… ?”
“Silver Castle just posted a notice on the internet. But I think… I think Silver Castle is Eunseong.”
“… !”
