185 episodes. Mr. Son, that’s it.
I gathered Jackie, Lucy, and the entire bodyguard.
to prepare for the future.
“James’ hands are going to be pretty rough soon. So, just to be safe, let Jackie and Lucy go to General Lacampo. The military won’t be quick to touch it.”
“Edward, are you really okay?”
Jackie asked with a worried face.
Lucy’s expression looked uneasy as if it wasn’t much different.
“I scratched it on purpose, so don’t worry too much. I’ll make sure the contrast is there.”
“Wow, okay. Please be careful, don’t make me a widow.”
My heart aches at Jackie’s fastball.
Everyone knows we’re meeting, but to openly say we’re widows in front of people.
“Hey, and Team Leader Park.”
“yes.”
“How do you see the people over there?”
“There are a lot of them, but they are qualitatively inferior to us. Except for five mercenaries out of 25, the rest are all members of the Black Bear faction.”
“How many mercenaries did Vice Minister Son have in total?”
“According to the information Khalid sent, there are 30 people in a platoon level. I understand that there are 6 teams of 5 people each.”
By conciliating the enemy to my side, I gained information and many good points.
“Then there will be four teams on the African continent?”
“yes.”
“Listen, hand them over to General Lacampo and tell them to arrest them at the airport if they enter the country.”
“There will be people who smuggle in. There are also mercenaries who have been internationally blacklisted.”
“Talk to the triad.”
“Do you want me to deal with it?”
“If possible, don’t kill him and tell him to hold him. Without the loan, I could be a customer.”
“All right.”
Then a vibrating sound rang out.
– Jiying. Jiying.
The owner of the cell phone was Park Yoo-hyeon.
And the international number that appeared on the screen put a smile on my face.
“Take it.”
“yes.”
After a short phone call, Yoohyeon said with a smile.
“Vice Minister Son also called Khalid’s team.”
Digging graves with my feet.
Very good.

“What? What did you say now?”
Son Young-seok thought he had heard it wrong.
“Two teams were caught and arrested during immigration procedures at the airport, and one team was caught trying to smuggle into the country and was caught by the Triad. The other team is inquiring about a ship to smuggle in. Likewise, the situation is not easy because of the Triad.”
“How do you know? No, even if you expected me to use your hands, how could you know those guys!?”
“Sorry. We haven’t figured it out yet.”
“Damn!!”
A situation in which two thirds of the main mercenary unit were stranded.
Son Young-seok had a sharp tooth.
“Deputy Minister, the news is that Khalid’s team has arrived safely.”
“What? How did they get in?”
“Perhaps it was because he changed his identity. Khalid is one of the commanders who pay particular attention to identity exposure.”
“Well, at least he was a guy with ideas. Unlike other guys who only knew guns.”
Son Young-seok, who remembered Khalid, snapped his finger after a moment.
“Yeah, if you think about it, you don’t have to hit it head-on. It’s just going to get noisy.”
“Yeah, but they’re too easy to make a surprise attack on.”
“No, it’s not the Khalid team. Their identity is not exposed, they’re good at infiltrating, and they’re just as talented as most war buffs. Since that’s two shifts, half of them will sleep at night.”
“Are you thinking of factor abduction?”
“Yeah, even if they get caught, if you get rid of them all, there’s no turning back.”
Because they are mercenaries, it was a conceivable tail cut.
Sohn Young-seok made a decision without hesitation and continued.
“Tell Khalid. Don’t come here, Jin Yu-seong, catch him and bring him to the house.”
“All right.”
“The rest stay still and wait. That way, you won’t be able to move quickly from the other side either.”
“Then I’ll take you only to the inside.”
“No. Gwangbae, you are here too. Then you’ll think I’m here too.”
“But if you move alone…”
Despite Jo Gwang-bae’s concerns, Son Young-seok was determined.
“It’s okay, because it’s okay. Just in case you don’t know, look for a ship to smuggle to South Africa. After Jin Yu-seong disappears, the government may block the border to find him.”

-Burreung.
Rough exhaust sound from an old car.
I opened my mouth only after the sound became more frequent.
“Are you here?”
A secluded private house located on the seashore was unsatisfying.
“Yes, I’ll excuse you then.”
“What’s the excuse? Don’t worry about it, just do what you normally do.”
Khalid nodded and Adidi put a hood over my face and tied me with a rope.
“It’s frustrating, but be patient. I’ll catch you, so just walk slowly.”
I laughed out loud at Addi’s words.
’cause I see it all
“Come on, let’s stop procrastinating and go inside quickly. Vice Minister Sohn will be waiting for you.”
I moved on without hesitation.
“Mr. Jean, be careful. There’s a stone beak underneath…”
“Okay, let’s open the door.”
Looking through the door, I saw Son Young-seok sitting proudly.
Khalid and his team took me to his front and knelt down.
“That’s the way you said it back then.”
I looked up at Son Young-seok and said.
“You’re quick-witted. You know right away that I’ve done it without even looking at it.”
“Who else could have kidnapped me?”
“In underdeveloped countries, kidnappings happen frequently. In a country like this, getting ransom is the easiest way to make money.”
“It seems like you’ve been doing it that way until now.”
“Hahaha, that’s right. That’s why I like Africa. It’s full of excuses even if it isn’t. I can take people I don’t like and relieve stress.”
I’m very proud.
“Would you mind taking off some of the stuff you put on your head?”
“No, it can’t be. The fear is maximized when people are not seen.”
“I think the fabric is a little thin for that. I like the gun in my hand. Isn’t it Beretta?”
Son Young-seok looked at his gun and me alternately and said to Addi.
“…Take it off.”
It will be so.
“Hey, I’m going to live now.”
“I know you have good guts, but did you really come out of the belly?”
“I hear that a lot.”
“Hahaha, it looks like you’re looking at me when I was younger.”
What kind of cursing are you?
“I think the vice minister also got out of the boat. To kidnap me with the Madagascar government and military behind it.”
“Of course, it was a bit of a stretch. But there is a saying in the world.
“That also means that if caught, you’re an outsider.”
“Can you get caught? You wouldn’t even know who the kidnappers were, and you wouldn’t be found dead.”
“My people should have started investigating by now. You don’t think you’ll be caught here?”
“Quick, don’t worry. You’ll be buried somewhere in that open field before midnight today.”
I laughed bitterly.
“If you were going to kill me, you wouldn’t have brought me here. I just ordered them to kill you and then bury them.
“I can take what I want by myself. There’s only one reason I brought you here. I want to cut your cheeky leash by myself. You were so clumsy back then, didn’t you?”
It’s not funny.
What are you bully?
“You say you’re a public official? Is it okay for a public official to kill the people of the Republic of Korea recklessly?”
“You immigrated to Australia. You betrayed your country, but what kind of people are the people?”
Why did you betray your country by emigrating?
Does that mean that compatriots who have gone abroad are not even Koreans?
I sang global and global songs, and after all, it was just words.
“It’s crazy. So are you going to shoot me with that gun?”
“I prepared for that. But before that, I’ll have to pay off some debt.”
Son Young-seok rolled up his sleeves and smiled mischievously.
“May I ask you something before that?”
“Tell me. I’ll give you my honest answer before I roll up all of these sleeves.”
“The Minister of Uzbekistan Komilov. Why did you betray him? A person who has a strong relationship with the vice minister and received 50 million dollars for rice cake.”
“……What?”
Sohn Young-seok lowered his hand with his sleeves folded and looked at me with a stiff face.
“Bolivia Santos Vice-Chairman of the Senate, Mexican Revolutionary Party Representative Rodriguez, Peruvian Vice President Pedro. Weren’t those people also in touch? Oh, the Vice Minister must have been distracted by Congo or Cameroon. Hahaha.”
“You bastard, what are you?”
Anyway, I was busy walking around and made it all.
“Actually, that’s not what I was trying to ask, it’s about the resource diplomacy project.”
“……What?”
I then looked at the draft and started asking questions.
“It’s about 30 trillion won, the amount that President Jang and you were trying to steal.”
“Who did you hear that from?”
“Why don’t you even listen to me for a moment?”
“……continue.”
“30 trillion won in slush funds made by spending 100 trillion won in national money. That’s 30 trillion won, but even if you get 1% interest a year, it’s 300 billion won. What the hell were you trying to do with that much money?”
Son Young-seok tilted his head as if he did not understand.
“I’d rather ask why you’re curious about that.”
“……?”
“Isn’t the more money the better? If there was a way to steal all 100 trillion won instead of 30 trillion won, I would have done it. VIPs are the same.”
“……”
“Why do you think your high-ranking officials take bribes to commit corruption?”
why? Is that a reason?
“It’s probably because of greed. I want to have more money.”
“No, it’s not because of greed, it’s because it’s a natural price.”
“……?”
“How important is the work I’ve been doing for this country, and I have to receive this level, this level is acceptable, I should receive this level. As a person carrying a heavy responsibility for the country, this is a natural price.”
Wow, that’s disgusting and boring.
It’s the best bullshit I’ve ever heard.
“So you are entitled to 30 trillion won, right?”
“Who is it thanks to who has prevented the aftermath of the financial crisis from the United States at that level? Without VIP and this administration, everything would have passed and collapsed like the IMF. Because it was written, Korea is still called an economic powerhouse. But, only 100 million or 200 million? Isn’t that the passion payment?”
Why is passion pay stuck there?
I’m really speechless.
“Now, tell me. Where did you hear about that amount? Komilov, Santos, Rodriguez, Pedro. What else do they do?”
I laughed out loud at Son Young-seok’s question.
“Why am I telling you that?”
“Aren’t you going to say anything like this?”
Beretta is aimed at my forehead.
It’s real with live bullets in the magazine.
“If I die, you won’t be able to hear me, will you?”
“There are only three people who know that. VIP, me, and Jang Min-soo. At least, he’s like Jang Min-soo’s head. Just kill you and pick Jang Min-soo’s head.”
“……”
Bingo, I’m recording something I didn’t expect here.
“Still, even if it’s unfair that I answered you, I’ll have to get the source out of your mouth. I’ll count to three, so I’ll answer in that. One.”
Son Young-seok removed the trigger when I didn’t even move.
-click.
“two.”
At that moment, another gunshot hit the back of Son Young-seok’s head.
“Mr. Son, that’s it.”
