There was nothing to be gained by accusing Dokgo Eul. If the red line was drawn, I wouldn’t be able to have a proper social life, so I had to accept what he gave me.
“Don’t worry. I’ll get it out as soon as possible.”
Dokgo-eul had no choice but to bow his head at the words that were not in his heart.
‘Maybe I’ll forget it over time.’
But just paying for his father’s hospital bills was worth the deal.
At least that was until I met him.
***
It was when the secretary went to his father’s hospital to clear up his case. I stopped at the hospital without a bodyguard because I was nominally kicked out of Dokgo-eul who found out the truth.
Dokgo-eul’s face was known, but there was no problem moving because the public couldn’t know the face of a secretary.
‘It’s a real dog’s life.’
It has become this kind of situation because of the sin of serving the master wrongly. The sky was resentful.
At that time, a man appeared in front of the secretary.
“Keep walking without looking back. From there to the left. Then to the right.”
Being a murderer pointed at by people and ending up in prison, what could be further down the drain?
He decided to accept this opportunity.
The secretary walked according to the man’s instructions. A man suddenly walked ahead and dropped one of his earphones.
“Pick it up and write it.”
As I picked up my earphones and put them on, I heard someone’s voice. It was the first voice I had ever heard.
“I’d like to make you a good offer.”
It was Benjamin Chung using a voice modulator, but he couldn’t have noticed it. Next to Benjamin Jung, Kim Jae-gu was watching the operation together.
“I’ll offer you much better conditions than what Dokgo-eul suggested. Please come to the place I’m talking about.”
***
A honeymoon with the traitor on the other side. My heart was pounding at the development that seemed to come out of a spy movie.
As if it was a very familiar task, Benjamin Chung proceeded to handle the task without any emotional change.
The first thing they secured was an abandoned abandoned building in Chungcheong Province. Although it was an abandoned house, it was not known as an abandoned house, so I secured a building where idiots who want to test their courage do not come.
‘Because there are too many eyes in the metropolitan area.’
CCTVs everywhere and black boxes were no different from CCTVs. But country roads were different. The country roads, which were open in all directions, were also strongholds for spotting those who followed.
“Can’t I go by myself?”
“You don’t have to go there yourself.”
Not long ago, Benjamin Chung said that he had acquired new limbs in the field. It happened after the poison fix was beaten, so I guessed it, but I didn’t ask specifically how it was secured.
If there is a hero in a spy movie, it would be Benjamin Chung. And I was in the position of a strong supporter behind the scenes.
‘A hero does not betray his sponsor.’
At least until the backer betrays the main character. Moreover, the reliability of Benjamin’s definition was a whopping 90%. This made me know that he would not betray me.
‘It must have had the effect of scattering money.’
I assure you, it will be difficult to find someone who will take care of your money as much as I do.
“If you go in person, you only increase the risk. Now that you’re in position, it’s only right to send discards where you’ll be exposed to opponents.”
“Abandon Pharaoh…”
I didn’t like the tone, but it was better than having my people go wrong.
We contacted Dokgoeul’s secretary through the camera and wiretaps of the man who arrived at the warehouse. His face was quite damaged even if he pretended to be in a lot of trouble.
{Why did you call this far?}
There was no regret for life on his face. It was only natural that he became the target of someone who killed others with just a word.
‘Because Dokgo knows people’s lives as flies’.’
But that’s the story of when there is no hope. Given what we had prepared, it was clear that feelings would change.
When I spoke, Benjamin Chung filtered it once and passed it on to the person who went to the scene. Then the person said that it was a structure that only recited what we said.
It was a kind of avatar negotiation.
{Have you figured out the whereabouts of the two executives after the Daehan Market shareholders’ meeting?}
The secretary’s expression darkened.
{I’ll hide it like the two of you.}
{You can’t be…}
He jumped up from his seat. The eyes that had looked like the eyes of a dead fish just now began to come alive.
{I’m just passing on his story.}
{Who is that?}
“Put your second finger to your lips and say nothing.”
As if the avatar had moved according to Benjamin Jung’s instructions, the secretary’s expression became calm. He slumped down in his seat.
{but. I can’t tell you.}
{He made you an offer.}
My hands and feet shriveled and tickled at the title of a high-ranking person who could not speak his name. However, according to Benjamin Chung, sometimes this kind of bravado is necessary, so I decided to put up with it.
{What is your suggestion.}
{If you help put Dokgoeul in jail, I will provide all the hospital bills and a safe house.}
If someone stabs a person with a sword, is that sword bad? I do not think so. There are people who have no choice but to live a life with a sword, and they just chose that path to survive.
You may not choose it, but you may not have had a choice since you found out that Dokgo Group does such a thing.
‘I’ll have to pay for the sins I committed.’
There was no need to bring it up already.
{All living expenses, tuition, and medical expenses for the family will be provided by us. We will also provide settlement money so that you can settle in after you are released from prison.}
{How much is the settlement fee…}
{How many offers have you received?}
It didn’t matter how much he gave as long as he could put Dokgoeul in prison. It’s been a long time since the concept of money and ordinary people has changed.
In the early days, it seemed like a long time since Hanul had been beating himself up while investing 1 billion won in the company.
{5…500 million.}
{I’ll give you 800 million.}
He opened his eyes wide.
{If you add 800 million to the cost of living while in prison, it will easily exceed 1 billion.}
{The Dokgo Group won’t leave me alone.}
{Do you think we’ll leave it alone?}
The secretary shuddered.
{They have many sins. Just publishing the truth could put everyone in jail. But we are different. Because I don’t do anything punishable by Korean law.}
{Ha…but.}
{It may not be the status to be punished.}
{You can’t…}
The secretary took a breath and pounded her chest.
The best way to incite fear in others is to use your imagination.
The keyword that reminds me of that person, that he is not in a position to be punished, is the feeling of a person with omnipotent power. It was a shriveled expression, but it seemed to be eaten.
‘I don’t know what the hell he’s thinking.’

Judging by the expression on the secretary’s face, he seemed to be thinking of worse people than I knew.
{What would you like?}
{Are you sure you’re protecting me?}
{I will definitely guarantee what I said.}
{My life.}
{Whichever you choose is up to you}
{… I’ll think about it.}
{Think of the children.}
Did you say I love you? His love for his children was greater than for his parents. The secretary’s face darkened.
{Does Dad have to be a murderer?}
{But also murder…}
{Isn’t there a good excuse that you were afraid of the Dokgo family?}
{How can I trust you.}
{If you want, I’ll attach a bodyguard starting today.}
he was troubled If he had a bodyguard attached, it would be the same as advertising that he lost Chuck with Dokgo-eul.
Finally he shook his head.
{it’s okay.}
{Then let’s evacuate the family.}
{Please.}
{Then would you like to join us?}
He nodded his head slowly with a sorrowful expression on his face. It must have been a difficult decision to abandon the owner who had served her for over 15 years.
{Good choice.}
{I’ll just go.}
When the negotiations were over, the secretary got in the car and went back.
“Negotiations over. Burn the communications equipment.”
Benjamin Chung finished the call.
“Are you done?”
“The basic work has been done. Now we can proceed with the work while understanding the opponent’s movements.”
“okay.”
“however···.”
He narrowed his eyes.
“Are you really going to take care of me like that?”
“Don’t those who take risks for us deserve that price?”
“It’s not going to be a rumor anyway. We can move to South America and deal with it quietly.”
Is this the mindset of heartless people? There was no way that among the people Benjamin Chung served, there was no one like Dokgoga.
Most of the social leaders were sociopaths.
But as a father raising a daughter, I didn’t want to close my eyes to that.
“Please prepare.”
Benjamin’s eyes widened slightly.
“All right.”
“And when this is over, let’s discuss the renewal of the contract.”
“A contract renewal?”
“I have a lot of work, but I have to raise my salary.”
“It’s okay since you take care of the success fee separately.”
“I have more to ask of you.”
A soft smile formed on Benjamin Jung’s lips.
“All right.”
Entering him as an aide in Korea would make things easier in Korea.
***
Lee Chul-soon formally sued Dok-go-eul. I went to the Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of Korea and filed a complaint directly, because that process was much faster than reporting to the police.
Perhaps because there were many eyes to see, a prosecutor was quickly assigned.
It was Prosecutor Joo Hye-ji who fought Dok-go-jeong on the front. The case related to Dokgo Group was handed over to her because other prosecutors avoided it.
‘I’m not going to look like senior Han Seong-min at this rate.’
She had no grudge against Dokgo Group. However, because of his friendship with Han Seong-min, he did not have good feelings for the Dokgo Group.
‘But someone has to do it.’
As much as he took on cumbersome tasks, there were also people around him who took care of him. But it didn’t come first. If I did, I would end up like Han Sung-min.
‘Even if I interrogate the secretary, I won’t be able to get useful information.’
The call records Lee Cheol-soon had were those with Dok Go-eul’s secretary. It was unreasonable to sue Dok-go-eul with just that.
However, it was not uncommon for an aide of a chaebol family to sell out the chaebol.
Nevertheless, the investigation had to be done, so she came to the secretary. He was expelled from the Dokgo group for ordering the murder and was staying at home.
‘If I refuse, I’ll go back.’
When I rang the bell, a man with a haggard face opened the door. He was Dokgo Eul’s secretary.
She glanced around with unconcerned eyes. There was no sign that anyone was waiting inside.
“This is Prosecutor Joo Hye-ji of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office. May I go in?”
“The house is cluttered… Come in first.”
There were traces of someone living there, but the house was really cluttered, probably because the luggage was hurriedly removed. The secretary ushered her to the table.
“Do you want coffee?”
“it’s okay.”
I learned that it is not a matter of taking a drink from someone else.
The secretary set down a cup of coffee and took a seat in front of her. I had already heard from him that Prosecutor Joo Hye-ji was a trustworthy person.
“Let me ask you a few questions. Is it true that Dokgo-eul ordered the murder teacher?”
It was a formal question. Ju Hye-ji did not expect the other person to answer.
“Yes, that’s right.”

Joo Hye-ji looked at him with surprised eyes at the secretary’s answer. He trembled lightly and looked around with frightened eyes.
“What did you just say?”
“Dokgoeul’s instructions are correct.”
it’s a private jet. we’re the only ones riding
From nob le mt l dot com
Joo Hye-ji returned to her office and drank coffee while thinking. She thought that Dok-go-eul’s secretary would deny the allegation and endure, but his reaction was completely different from her expectations.
‘I didn’t expect to confess so easily…’
He even explained everything that he hadn’t asked about, and even handed over copies of materials to be used as evidence.
There were also recorded recordings of Dokgo-eul’s instructions to him, including the names of people who had already passed away.
‘Isn’t this getting too big?’
I thought about it even when I was in Dokgo, but it was really scary to get involved with Dokgo Group. It was natural that seniors who had already married and started a family were reluctant to do the job.
However, as long as the complaint came in, someone had to take charge of the work.
