Episode 93. Scarlet Knights (2)
Atsukawa Kyoichiro, Chris Ryan, and Shin Choa took off their suits and went to the Seoul detention center.
There, Jang Eun-seok applied for a special visit.
Soon after, Jang Eun-seok, along with the guards, entered the meeting room with crutches on the floor.
“I’m going to have a legal discussion, so you just have to leave.”
The prison guard looked around and headed outside.
While the door was closing, Jang Eun-seok looked around at the three people with a frown.
“A lawyer sent by your father?”
All three had attorney badges on their collars.
And the visit was also requested as a lawyer.
However, because of the seriousness of the case, Jang Dong-beom never visited Jang Eun-seok as he was put on trial.
Jang Eun-seok continued to look at him with a puzzled look.
In response, Atsukawa Kyoichiro said.
“No, you don’t have to wonder who sent it.”
Jang Jang-seok felt offended when his tone changed.
“What are you?”
“Here… who can put an end to your throat in one breath?”
Life slowly rose from Atsukawa’s body.
The man sitting next to him and the woman leaning against the wall felt the same way.
Jang Eun-seok realized that something was unusual in the cold, sinking atmosphere.
“Could it be… My name—”
“It’s better not to mention the name.”
“Why did you come to see me?”
“Isn’t Korea a polite country in the East? I wish I could speak higher…”
“···yo. this.”
Jang Eun-seok, pressed by the atmosphere, stretched out his words.
At this, Atsukawa smiled contentedly.
“Okay, more than that, I heard you were arrested at an abandoned factory in Incheon. Why did you go there?”
At that moment, Jang Eun-seok’s mind flashed the image of Kang-soo reaching out.
Jang Eun-seok’s fingertips began to tremble as if they were severely imprinted.
“Well, I just went there because I had something to do…”
Atsukawa looked in the direction of the door and said quietly.
“The time when the minebook business was revealed was similar to that time. Wasn’t it leaked then? …Well, I could check with the guys who were with you, but I thought it would be better to be certain.”
It was difficult to pinpoint exactly who was aiming for Seo Myeong-won right away.
So, from the point of Jang Eun-seok’s downfall, he moved by grabbing the strands.
“···I don’t know. It has nothing to do with Mine Book…”
“Whether it matters or not is for me to decide. What did you go for? Or should I use the rough method? Or else… do you really think I came here knowing nothing?”
Atsukawa’s expression suddenly turned stern.
It felt like Atsukawa’s fist would fly at any moment.
Then, Shin Choa, who was leaning against the wall, came forward and took out a bundle of photos from her arms and spread them on the table.
In the photo, the two men were covered in blood.
There was also a picture of the original face in it.
Jang Eun-seok knew who they were. It was because they were the men who caught him in the end at the abandoned factory.
Jang Jang-seok could not be found because they disappeared in the abandoned factory.
“They say they ordered a man named Han Kang-su to be brought in, but they said they were beaten back. Am I right?”
“…”
“From what we checked, it didn’t look like anything special. Did you really get hit?”
“·······”
“I heard that the cell phone was stolen at the time, but wasn’t the minebook leaked there?”
“…that’s probably not it.”
Of course, the ‘Minebook’ application was installed on the cell phone.
It wasn’t that Jang Jang-seok hadn’t thought of that either.
However, it was difficult for a single manager to work like now with only the application.
“We’ll have to check whether it’s possible or not, and well— that’s enough.”
Atsukawa stood up from his seat.
“Ah… you’ve been doing well so far. Just keep doing it. I don’t know what will happen if I make a mistake with my mouth…”
After that, Atsukawa and two other people left the meeting room.
Shin Cho-ah put the picture she had opened into her arms.
Jang Eun-seok swallowed. I was looking into Atsukawa’s eyes until recently, but I quietly remembered the time when I confronted Kangsu.
.
.
.
The three of them came out and went to the car they came from.
Shin Choa was in the driver’s seat, Ryan was in the front passenger’s seat, and Atsukawa was in the back seat.
“Where shall we go?”
“Go ahead.”
The car is out of jail.
Meanwhile, Chris Ryan, who had been keeping his mouth shut, opened his mouth.
“Is that Han Kang-soo this time?”
“for now.”
“The people who tortured me said that they seemed to be quite capable.”
It was Shin Cho-ah who was in charge of the men in the photo.
There was something I heard then, so I was concerned.
“Even if I had to say it, it would only be at the level of martial arts. Jang Eun-seok’s men must have been there too. how is it···? chris. Will you try it this time?”
“Is that okay?”
“First of all, you just have to find your cell phone, and take care of other information yourself. They don’t seem to have any family, so it won’t be a big problem if they suddenly disappear.”
Chris Ryan listened to those words, untied his tie, took off his jacket, and rolled up his sleeves.
Seeing this, Atsukawa burst into laughter.
“Heh—was it that frustrating?”
“I don’t think the suit suits my constitution.”
The sleeves were rolled up to the elbow.
Then, a tattoo was revealed on the inside of Chris Ryan’s forearm.
A silver sword rested on a crimson kite shield.
“I hate to be stuffy, but be careful, tattoos can be too conspicuous.”
“···All right.”
Chris lowered his folded sleeves a little.
“How many days will it take to clean up this guy named Han Kang-soo?”
“I will do it today. That’s enough.”
“good.”
The car with the three people headed to the warehouse at Incheon Port where Kang Jin-hu was waiting. I was using it as a hideout.
It took about an hour to get there.
coo goong—
The warehouse door opened and I tried to get inside.
“···for a moment.”
Atsukawa, along with the others, stopped and stepped back.
At the same time, the two people in the back knew what it meant and went to the car and took out the gun they had put in the glove box.
clap—
“Has the tail been caught?”
“I don’t know. It could be a bit of a whim… Choa and I go in front.”
“I will take the bypass attack.”
Atsukawa and Shinchoa nodded at Chris Ryan’s answer.
After confirming that there was no problem with each gun, they installed silencers and magazines.
After that, Chris Ryan ran to the back.
Atsukawa opened the warehouse door with Shin Choa and entered, hiding behind a large shelf and examining the surroundings.
.
.
.
Chris Ryan turned to the back and slowly circled the wall with his gun pointed.
hook-
Only wooden crates and containers were tightly stacked.
In response, Chris stepped on the wooden box and climbed onto the container to check the surroundings.
“Is it just a trace of someone passing by…?”
The moment he turned his head the other way while muttering in English—
Shuaaak Chang! Chow ah—
Chris twisted his body at the sound of flying somewhere. At that moment, the gun hit something.
Chris jumped straight down the container without going to pick up the gun.
‘…Where is it?’
The object he was shot at fell to the floor.
It was a red drawing knife.
There was no sign of being caught around. Then he looked further away and saw the handgun he had dropped.
‘…it must be bait.’
It was so quiet.
It was clear that he was waiting to come out.
‘In the direction the knife just came out…’
Staying still wasn’t the way.
In response, Chris looked around and threw the stone he found with force to one side.
Caang—
At the same time, I ran to the knife instead of the gun, rolled around, picked it up, and hid behind the container on the other side.
Chaeeng-
As expected, another knife flew near the pistol at the perfect timing and bounced to the floor.
If he had rushed to pick up the pistol, the knife would have been stuck anywhere.
‘Two o’clock.’
There was no time to relax anymore.
Chris threw the knife as he bounced back from where he had caught it.
Shuaaak— Chaechaeng.
The timing was set to pick up the pistol as it collided in the air with a knife I didn’t know when to throw.
widely-
At that moment, a kick flew from somewhere.
“urg-“
Huung—
Surprised, Chris quickly touched the floor with his outstretched hand and widened the gap with his side bump.
Percussion, chaaa—
The pistol grazed by the kick scratched the floor and went through a crack in the wooden box.
“···female?”
Chris looked at the person facing him. A waist-length brown haired woman was wearing a curvy suit and a mask that half covered her face.
It was Theresa.
“Did you target us from the beginning?”
“…”
Theresa moved her wrist without answering that question. Three drawing knives protruded from between his fingers.
“magician? Let’s try this.”
Chris, who broke his neck once, charged with a fist.
Shuaaa
A knife was thrown.
At that moment, Chris took out his hand from his chest and opened the triple bar.
Chae-chae-chaeng!
The knife was slashed at once and bounced off into the air.
The distance between the two grew closer in an instant. In response, Chris swung the triplet at Teresa.
Huung— Papak!
Teresa counterattacked, avoiding the triple bar.
As the distance got closer, the knife and the three-stage rod could not draw a large trajectory.
Elbows and knees moved quickly between the two.
Papapak— Papak.
Chris’ hand ran through Theresa’s long hair.
Teresa leaned back and kicked Chris in the chin with her knee as she spun around.
puck-
“Is it the right way?”
Chris touched his chin, put his other hand in his chest and took out another triplet.
Hung— Hung—
Each of his hands held a triple bar.
“Let’s see how long we can avoid it.”
“That one.”
Shashak—
Three red knives were clutched in each of Teresa’s hands.
This time Theresa lunged and closed the distance.
I drew a trajectory while holding the knife in the air.
Chae Chaeng— Papapak—
The sound of the triple stick scratched and the knives in my left hand bounced off.
Then, the knife in Teresa’s right hand, which was supposed to be held, was nowhere to be seen.
Hung- Pak!
Theresa’s left hand held the knife, stabbing Chris in the shoulder.
It didn’t end there.
Hung— Papa Pak, Papa Pak—
Chris, who was bad at this, swung the triple stick again, but Theresa threw knives into the air and evaded, grabbing them and stabbing them.
It had been attacked like that before.
“Keugh—! How could such an attack…”
Knives were driven into both thighs, wrists, and shoulders. It was a concentrated attack on muscles and tendons.
Chaeng-Grang—
The tripod fell to the floor.
Theresa picked it up, put it on her shoulder and smiled.
“Goodbye—”
puck-
The tripod was swung. Chris’s head then turned sideways and hit the container wall.
I groaned as I fell to the floor.
“Mi, crazy b*tch…”
“uh? don’t you faint? I thought you would faint.”
A person who uses a knife so elaborately misses the stun point… It was ridiculous.
“Sorry—”
puck- puck- puck-
From then on, violence under the guise of ‘stunning’ began.
It was like a lot of things were piled up.
