72 – The Essence of a Hero (2)
Mr.
“It’s Yuna.”
“Why?”
“Get out.”
“Huh?”
“Get out.”
I didn’t expect that I would suddenly be asked to leave because I was told to come all the way here.
Yuna shook her head, frowning as if it was the same.
“If you’re going to do that, why did you call me? No….”
Ms. Yuna looked at her and shut her mouth as she did.
It seemed that he did not want to show his natural attitude in front of his family.
“Yuna Seo. Waiting outside for a minute It is an important matter.”
“Okay….”
Ms. Yuna got up from her seat with a sullen expression and walked outside.
And after two seconds passed, Mr. Joo-Won stood up and walked towards the door.
“Don’t put your ear to the door.”
ㅡ Ugh, eg, ugh!
Ms. Yuna put her ear to her door and left with a strange sound as if she had been overhearing the story.
“Whoa.”
Mr. Joo-won sighed and sat down, feeling that his shoulders had lost some strength.
After a while, the secretary came in with a knock and put the car down in front of me and Joo-won and went out.
“Um… Mr. Jinwoo? May I call you?”
“Yes. Call me whatever is convenient for you.”
“You don’t have to be so harsh.”
Because that’s not easy.
I often heard about Joo Won from Yuna.
He graduated from a famous foreign university, and at the age of 30 was said to be a high-ranking person.
He’s playing an intelligent career woman, so he tried to hide his emotions as much as possible, but the story showed his pride for his family.
At the age of 30, he is a man who is recognized for his skills, not just a position he reached through personal connections.
The president of a conglomerate that is not a mediocre small or medium-sized company.
It was a bit difficult to speak easily to such a person.
“Isn’t Yuna a bit stupid?”
“Yes… yes?”
“Mr. Jinwoo… No, Brave seems to have a bit of an eye for that, so you know it when you see it, right? Yuna is more absurd than I thought.”
“Uh, um….”
Ms. Yuna is quite foolish.
“Since I was young, I have been strangely fond of such things. I knew that Yuna would become an actress when she grew up.”
From noble mtl dot com
Yuna said she liked to show off like that from a young age.
When she was young and read fairy tales to her, she even said that she wanted to become a princess in fairy tales.
As she was listening to such a story, she felt something loosen her shoulders.
“Yuna’s story Lone Brave is naive, he said he wouldn’t do anything that relied on his power. Not really.”
“….”
“It must be that important…. Take it out.”
I put my smartphone down in front of Joo-won and played the audio file again.
At first, Joo-won, who was looking at his smartphone with an interesting expression, wrinkled his forehead.
The expressions on their faces were different from each other, but somehow, “They’re siblings… It was a reaction that made me want to.
“Brave.”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure you can copy this file?”
“Oh, yes. Of course.”
Because that was the purpose from the beginning.
I gave the recording file to Mr. Joo-Won.
“I can roughly understand why Brave came here. The Flash mentioned here is the hero who recently attempted suicide, right?”
“Yes….”
“Currently, the political world is in a very sensitive situation. They are frantic to avoid criticism.”
When this recording file is released, a great deal of criticism will be poured out on Flash and his family, no matter what the intention.
Mr. Joo-Won immediately figured out why I came here.
“But even though we know that such a crazy person is hiding in society, we can’t even leave it unattended.”
I nodded at Joo-won’s words.
“But there are no sharp points. It’s because a monster that can’t be detected by the monster detector has appeared.”
Mr. Joo-Won said that he would find out, and that he would try to do what he could at the GB Group level.
I said that I would like to ask Joo-won well and left the GB Group headquarters.
This is the end of what I couldn’t handle with my own hands.
Now it was time to do what I could with my hands.
***
Joo-Won caught Yuna trying to follow Jin-Woo and sent her into the president’s office.
“Ah, why, why….”
Yuna was in a very grumpy state when she was interrupted by a car while she was about to have a meal with Jinwoo.
Joo-Won is now 21 years old, but he is starting to worry about his younger sister who is still cute and has not yet taken off her high school student shirt.
“Hey, it’s Yuna.”
“Why, boss of the foundry department.”
“Yuna Seo.”
“Wow!”
“You, come home. Right Now.”
“Huh?”
Yuna did not understand Joo-Won’s words and froze.
“Why?”
Seeing Yuna glaring at her with a cold expression, Joo-won felt a bittersweet feeling.
Still, I wanted to revive from a fatal illness and live a life doing what I want to do in the future.
However, that was a story that was only possible when safety was guaranteed.
“Didn’t you listen to all of these recordings?”
“Yes.”
Joo-Won played the recording file he received from Jin-Woo.
Yuna shrank slightly as if she was frightened by the madness she heard in the recording.
“Now, okay?”
“What, what?”
Yuna is pretty smart even when she’s rude.
I already understood the core of the story Joo-won was trying to tell.
Even so, Yuna didn’t want to listen to Joo-won’s words.
It was the first time she truly thought of wanting to have someone by her side.
I felt like if I left Jin-Woo, who seemed to have changed strangely these days, our relationship would be cut off forever.
I had such a premonition.
“This madman is after Brave. Can’t you see Korean society now? The stock market is a cataclysm, and foreign currencies are flowing out in real time every day. Politicians keep their heads down every day, and Black Technology holders have even announced that they will no longer be able to work here unless their safety is guaranteed. It’s just that one monster kid created this situation. No, this madman created this situation.”
“….”
“That crazy guy is openly aiming for Brave. Still can’t figure out the situation?”
“Yeah, but… !”
“Yuna Seo. Listen.”
“….”
I wanted to let her sister do everything she wanted to do.
However, that is only possible in situations where safety is guaranteed.
Under these circumstances, I couldn’t set Yuna free.
She didn’t want to repeat the experience when Yuna was devastated by her psychic syndrome.
Yuna was shrugging her shoulders as if she were about to shed tears.
Even so, she had to come out strong now.
“Quit the Hero Office. Leave everything to Hawkeye.”
“That, that!”
“It’s an order.”
“Ugh, ugh!”
In the end, tears flowed from Yuna’s eyes.
I thought that I might go on a date with Jin-Woo, so the makeup I had put so much effort into smeared, adding a pathetic feeling.
Yuna glanced at Joo Won with that face.
‘Who do you resemble?’
It is true that you are sad, and you must be sincere that your tears come out.
But since I’m so sad, I’m using this moment as if to make concessions.
Joo-Won shook his head, saying he didn’t know when he became such a mean person.
“I’ll set you free again later when it’s safe. So be patient.”
“Huh.”
“Let’s have a meal with oppa after a long time.”
“You don’t like it? Is your face all smudged?”
Yuna took her cleansing tissue from her handbag and started to wipe her face.
‘I was really cute when I was little….’
I felt very sorry for her younger sister, who used to chase after her older brother whenever she did anything.
Joo-Won says he doesn’t like it, but she says she’ll buy you something delicious. Seeing Yuna shake her shoulders, she sighs.
After eating her lunch with a grumbling Yuna, Joo-Won sent her Yuna back to her house.
Then, by changing their expression, they gathered people who could give advice on this case.
Those who are far from politics but have a sense of justice or are heavy-mouthed.
Professors working in the hero industry or in charge of criminology also gathered there.
In the president’s office, where prominent people gathered, there was a heavy silence with only the sound of the air conditioner running.
“I asked you to gather here to get advice on a recent event. Let’s listen to this first.”
Joo-Won said that and played the recorded file he received from Jin-Woo.
ㅡ Um… Well. Brave, let’s say you have a very precious and lovely lover.
When the name of Brave was mentioned, the faces of half of the people gathered were distorted.
Because they are people in the hero industry, there are quite a few people who know the name of the rookie Brave.
ㅡ Let’s say someone puts a lot of effort into building a tower with cards. It is also a tower that reaches a whopping 5m.
A man in his mid-40s wearing glasses was writing down the contents of the recording file with a serious expression.
I couldn’t see my hands tapping on the laptop keyboard.
ㅡ The man could see the future with that special power. The future was truly terrifying.
In the recording file, a nuanced story flowed out that a madman created a monster and created today’s society.
The 10 people sitting in the seat all focused on the story flowing from the recording file with a look of astonishment.
ㅡ Life is not a game. It means that if you choose A, you will never be able to see the future if you chose B. Still I… I want to see the unseen future.
The voice from the recording file stopped.
The facial expressions of the people sitting in the seats were all the same.
A shocked expression, as if hearing that nuclear weapons would fall on the Korean Peninsula tomorrow.
“Now that we have summoned people like this… It’s no joke, right?”
The man who had just been tapping the keyboard asked that question.
“Of course, Professor Jeong Dae-han.”
Criminal psychology expert profiler Jeong Dae-han opened his mouth after examining the transcript he had typed.
“The man’s voice is in his early to mid-40s. He’s about 170/170 in height.”
When Professor Jeong Dae-han opened his mouth, the man sitting next to him took up the story.
“And you must be of a standard body weight.”
Kang In-hyeok, a negotiator whose job is not common in Korea, received a story.
“But you can change your voice and appearance.”
Cheol-soo Kang, an executive of the Hero Association and a former hero, received a story.
“Even if you can change your voice and appearance, it means that you are quite attached to this appearance. Or something like that.”
People have no choice but to pay attention to the parts that are revealed on the outside.
Because humans are social animals.
There is no way that this man who seemed to have a strange obsession with Brave appeared with a meaningless appearance in such an encounter with Brave.
“The part where the voice and appearance match the way of speaking can also be guessed that he spent a considerable amount of time with this appearance. It didn’t feel like she was acting.”
Kang In-hyuk also gave weight to Professor Jeong Dae-han’s remarks.
“Do you think this story is believable?”
It’s too absurd to accept as reality.
However, we have no choice but to proceed with the story under the assumption that it is real.
The people gathered here knew all about it, but it was an absurd situation to the extent that such a question came out.
“If you think about it, it already makes no sense that a monster that you don’t even know where it came from exists in reality.”
When Joo-won said that, the man who had brought up the story sighed and nodded her head.
Everyone gathered here shared the same idea.
He stepped into a troublesome business.
