Episode 131. Chief
From nob le mt l dot com
Norman Miller smiled slightly when he saw Kang-soo’s eyes.
Because it was judged that the proposal might have been half-worked. As evidence of that, the murderous spirit that had been exuding until just now had faded.
“How is it? Transaction of necessary information. I think you might be satisfied with that.”
“… Is it worth more than the information inside? otherwise… … .”
clap—
Kangsu pulled the slide of the pistol again and looked at it seriously.
“You’re a very quick-tempered friend.”
“Maybe my fingers are more impatient than my temper. Are you going to keep lingering?”
Only life had faded, Kang-soo’s eyes were alive in the mask.
You could pull the trigger at any time.
Even Norman Miller felt it enough. So I turned my head faster to avoid reading the numbers.
“Shouldn’t I know what you want to know? It would be better if you tell us clearly what you want.”
“You know what I want? Can’t you guess from the current situation?”
The entrance to the Champs Elysées, including the upper floors of the hideout, was completely blown up.
If it was large enough to echo through several layers of firewalls, the outside must have already gone wild.
An attack of this magnitude could not have been launched simply for information.
Even Norman Miller knew that. The fact that you have a clear purpose… … .
“For now, I only ask one question. Is this a request from someone? Or that one of us owes you… … .”
“… You keep floating. I’ll ask you exactly to make it easier for you to think.”
“If you do, I will be comfortable. What is it?”
“Who is the top of the bluton reform?”
It was the final goal for Kangsu.
At the same time, Norman Miller’s expression hardened. It was because the atmosphere of the question was never good.
“that… I do not know either.”
“Didn’t I just say Chief, the person in charge of this place? I thought that would be enough to know.”
“On our side, he’s just the chief.”
Tattang—
The handgun held in Kangsu’s hand fired.
The target was both ankles of Norman Miller.
“aaagh—!”

Normal Miller, who was sitting in a chair, slid to the floor and grabbed his ankle first.
“A while ago, they told me to tell them what they wanted as if they would listen to anything. You say what you want, you don’t have the authority to go there? Are you trying to play with words?”
I didn’t know if I could have threatened Norman Miller in front of my eyes with more precision if the analysis of the information that had just been transmitted had been done right away.
However, Gong Chi-young, who could do that, was currently hospitalized with an injury.
Kang-soo felt sorry for him, but thought that there was nothing he could do about it, and pointed the pistol at Norman Miller’s head.
“If I am useless, I must die.”
clap—
The loading slide was pulled as if to imprint it again.
It was like a warning that the gun did not malfunction or run out of bullets like a miracle.
“I really don’t know! Instead, it can give you more important information. but… There is no guarantee that you will save me!”

Norman Miller was really determined to get the deal right.
As long as survival was secured, he intended to report the situation even after giving a little dangerous information.
It was just as important to report the presence that shot the mask in front of me.
“What information?”
“Keugh… I don’t know the boss of Bluton Reform. instead… I can tell you about the elders under your command.”
“elder? What kind of guy has so many elders… … .”
It reminded me of the members and elders of the Wuyuan Society, whom I met in the process of rescuing Ban Tae-hong in Hong Kong.
Kang-soo sighed and muttered, then looked at Norman Miller intently. I waited for the answer that followed.
In response, Norman Miller watched in pain and said.
“Not all… . Originally, I shouldn’t have known about the elders either… … .”
“But how do you know?”
“One person visited this place three years ago. That’s just what I found out! of course… He doesn’t even know what I found out.”
It was said that it was three years ago that Ban Tae-hong first visited his current hideout in Paris, France.
Perhaps it had something to do with Norman Miller’s discovery of the elder.
Of course, now Kang-soo had no reason to wonder that far.
“Who are these guys? Even if you tell me who he is, how do I know if he is a real elder? Even if I catch someone and talk about it, it’s impossible to check right away.”
Kangsu lifted the slightly lowered gun and aimed it at Norman Miller’s head.
Seeing that, Norman Miller hurriedly opened his mouth.
“Kamikura Horyuji! Head of the Ten Tsubasa Corporation! He is this elder of Bluton Lepon!”
“Ten… Tsubasa?”
I didn’t expect that the name of a place where even the river was known would come out.
Of course, the fact that Ten Tsubasa was involved with the Bluton Form was recognized when he saw Jennifer Han at the party.
However, the head of a giant corporation that goes into three fingers in Japan is the elder of Bluton Reform… … ?
“Do you know where? Then it would be even more surprising. Of course you wouldn’t believe it. Instead, there is evidence that he is the Elder of Bluton Reform. I’ll give you that—”
Taang—
The pistol was fired again in Kang-su’s hand.
The target this time was the palm of Norman Miller’s right hand, which he had lifted up as if inviting something.
“aaagh! Hey, what is this! You said you would give proof!”
“no.”
“What do you mean it’s not! Are you saying you don’t believe me! So proof—!”
At Norman Miller’s crumpled face, Kang-soo smiled dejectedly.
“Don’t you think it’s information that doesn’t need proof?”
“Uh, how… … ?”
Those who are crazy about the sense of superiority that they are above everyone else… … .
It was always the same question for them. Kang-soo frowned every time he heard that.
“Do you have any information for me to glorify? For example… Like the location of other hideouts like this one.”
“… … !”
In fact, the head of Ten Tsubasa was an elder and was from a different faction than Norman Miller.
From nob le mt l dot com
Norman Miller tried to escape by baiting the process of planting enemies in other factions and finding evidence to prove that he was an elder at the same time.
It all turned out to be in vain.
In addition, they even wanted a location in the same place as the Champs-Élysées branch.
“I, I… I’m only in charge here. I don’t know where else.”
“Then you must die. Will there be any objection?”
At that moment, a voice came through Kang’s earphones.
Precipitation pulled the trigger at the same time.
Taang—
Soon Norman Miller had a hole between his eyes and collapsed to the floor like a puppet with a thread cut off.
There was not the slightest hesitation. Of course, I didn’t know if I could find out more.
However, Kang-soo was able to calm himself down thanks to the voice he heard in his ear.
[Are you finished? Why are you doing useless business with that guy?]
It was Gong Chi-young. But Gong Chi-yeong had to be in the hospital.
It was a question of how the river was connected.
“Where are you talking?”
[Was there only one PC room?]
“… That’s really great. But what about the hospital?”
[They escaped in a hurry after seeing data coming into the server. If I go back, Nurse Kim might try to kill me.]
Kangsu laughed when he heard that.
“Did your hand hurt too?”
[Teresa is helping. And those guys data, even if you don’t use all your fingers, it’s enough.]
While the conversation between Kang-soo and Norman Miller continued, Gong Chi-yeong contacted Simon and was able to hear it through a telecommunications relay.
Then Kang-soo stopped him from trying to make a deal with the enemy on the condition of life and death.
“It really varies. But you found something, so you said you could kill it? It’s the same as finding the way here, but this guy… It’s bigger than anything I’ve ever found.”
[I set the server to automatically analyze the message encryption code. There was a mention of a specific area in some messages there, isn’t that enough?]
“It’s really great.”
Admiration for Gong Chi-young was natural.
Then Gong Chi-young said in an absurd voice.
[Did the guy who said he was going to work go all the way to Paris, France? I heard that you were in Hong Kong until yesterday to destroy the Wu Yuanhoe?]
It must have been heard from Simon.
Only then did Kang-soo feel that Gong Chi-yeong had properly regained his energy.
“It was something I should have checked. I was lucky to have found this place… . That’s why they’re more spread out than we thought.”
[anyway… Come out sooner than that. Do you have a place to go? I heard from Simon that the outside has completely collapsed.]
“Don’t worry, I’ve found it. I have to go out now.”
I checked before killing Norman Miller’s men.
Kang-soo finished the communication and left the central control room.

Korea, Seoul.
At the Korean branch of Ten Tsubasa International, located in Gangnam, Jennifer Han was working in the representative office.
In the meantime, a knock was heard.
smart-
“Come on in.”
The person who showed up with the answer was Jennifer Han’s bodyguard Jihu Chen.
“… What happened?”
As soon as Jennifer Han saw him, her nerves were on edge. In fact, it was because he was more like a watcher than a bodyguard.
The reason, of course, is because Jennifer Han failed after taking over the Korean business from Jo Young-gil.
In the meantime, Jihuchen stood in front of Jennifer Han with a calm expression.
“The French branch has been attacked.”
“… I beg your pardon?”
“Looks like they’ve come closer to us than I guessed above.”
Jennifer Han was dissatisfied with Jihuchen’s guess.
“Then did you say anything about me? If the French side was attacked, then I was no longer needed.”
In effect, Jennifer Han’s presence was a decoy.
In order to deliberately stand out, he sat at the representative of Ten Tsubasa International and even attended a party with celebrities.
However, without taking the bait, an unexpected place was hit.
“You didn’t say anything about it.”
“It’s useless anyway!”
As Jennifer Han’s voice rose, Jihuchen’s expression grew heavy with her hands folded together.
“Remember that you are waiting for punishment. And in no case should you even question the instructions above.”
“Keugh… … .”
Jennifer Han’s fists, which were on the desk, trembled as they were clenched.
“Once the French side was attacked, it is said that it will be difficult to deal with. So, he told me to erase all traces of anything related to him.”
“A trace?”
“There must be traces of connections between the paper company operating account and Ten Tsubasa International, which were operated by the organization. The representative just needs to sit there and solve those things so that he doesn’t get tracked.”
“… all right.”
“The borrowed-name accounts on the list of related paper companies would have been sent by e-mail.”
belt ring—
As if waiting, an email alarm went off on Jennifer Han’s computer.
Jennifer Han’s brows were wrinkled more because of the work she was doing. It was because I was not in the organization to do the same thing as I am now.
“this… Don’t you know when it’ll be over?”
“I do not know. And I can’t tell you. Just do as you are told.”
“… all right.”
After hearing the answer, Jihuchen left the office.
Jennifer Han, who was left alone, only hit the desk with her slender arms.
