Part 7
“You’re referring to something quite sensitive.”
Park Do-woon sip his coffee and calmly answered.
From the beginning, when the student council president requested a personal interview, I expected that the contents would not be ordinary.
Besides, I wondered if I would have to be very careful because the security department was intertwined there.
“I know it’s sensitive, but I don’t think I’m wrong. Why does the Ministry of Security need to subsidize the work of the Ministry of Security?”
“Well, you are right. The security department doesn’t necessarily have to assist the security department in its work. But isn’t the work of the Ministry of Security closely related to the Ministry of Security? So we are in a situation where we have no choice but to cooperate.”
“The purpose of the establishment of the Security Department is to actively deal with problems that may arise during Advanced Battles or Ranked Battles. Other than that, I understand that this is to prevent fights between students and to catch students who break the rules of Miterichi.”
Seo Hyun-woo recited the contents of the booklet dedicated to the student council executives.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Miterichi’s president, Park Do-woon, was nothing more than the highest commander except for the chairman.In other words, he had the right to intervene in detail, not only in the student council, but also in higher-level departments depending on his decision.
“I know you well. So what the hell is the problem? The Ministry of Security has been faithfully fulfilling its role until now, under the direction of the Ministry of Security. It seems to me that the security office is acting on behalf of the student council… What do you think?”
Park Do-woon said what he was feeling without mixing a single lie.
From an objective point of view, it was difficult to see that the Ministry of Security had any major problems.
Although the security department, which is a department directly under the student council, is used directly, there has never been a time when there has been no setback in the performance of work.
“There are some things that the president doesn’t know well.”
“Something I am not familiar with? What the hell is that?”
“As a result of my investigation, it appears that the Department of Security is using the Department of Security to collect personal information from students. What do you think about this?”
“what?”
Park Do-woon clenched his fists and glared at Seo Hyun-woo.
No matter how secure it was, it could not arbitrarily collect students’ personal information.
Above all else, it is absolutely unacceptable to do such a thing using the security department made up of students.
“Student council president, can you take responsibility for what you said now? If it turns out to be unfounded, there will be no escape from punishment.”
“If it turns out to be true, the head of the security department and the staff of his subordinate departments will be punished. If that happens, do you intend to discipline all the students in the Department of Security?”
“If what you said is true, the security department cannot escape its responsibility. Students who hold the positions of general secretary and team leader, as well as the security chief, will be relegated regardless of their ability.”
Of course, Seo Hyun-woo had expected to some extent that the president would say that.
The issue he was referring to was one of the most controversial issues someday.
The reason I didn’t mention everything was to avoid unnecessary intervention in the flow of the story.
Now, after putting the security department back under the jurisdiction of the student department, they would have to watch the security chief and look for an opportunity to make friends.
“I think it would be good to reconsider the punishment of the Ministry of Security. From the security department’s point of view, we have no choice but to follow the security department’s instructions.”
“That doesn’t mean I haven’t done anything wrong. If that really happened, you should have reported it to the administration or me.”
“no. I don’t mean that. Could it not have been that the security department was not aware that it had done something wrong?”
“…what do you mean?”
“I want to tell you that the security department was used by the security department. Members of the Security Department tend to roam the interior of Miterich relatively often, so they were a good target. Why not check out the Battle Watch used by the Ministry of Security?”
Seo Hyun-woo was able to explain in detail because he knew what the security ministry used.
Of course, this was not entirely true either.
It wasn’t because there weren’t any members of the security department involved in the security department’s illegal activities.
“It’s a little strange. No matter how much you hold the position of student council president, you can’t really know the details of the security office and the security department’s work. Do you have anything to do with the misdeeds of the security department?”
“If I had, I would have chosen a different method. He must have continued to cooperate with the Ministry of Security as it is, or negotiated with the president.”
“It seems to me that the personal interview itself is a negotiation.”
“If you think so, you can do research on me. As I say in advance, I have never abused that authority for personal gain since becoming the student body president. I just tell the president the truth to do what I have to do.”
Seo Hyun-woo speaks confidently and brightens his eyes.
He knew how the original Seo Hyun-woo had served as the student council president.
Although the original Seo Hyun-woo was quite weak in terms of background, status, and wealth, he had never personally used the authority of the student council president.
Even if he used the position of the student council president to become the number one, it was because his beliefs and pride did not allow him to abuse it.
“Then I will proceed with the investigation as you said. The Security Department and the Security Department, including you. If there’s really no problem, I’ll take the position of president and make an apology.”
“I don’t even want that. Because of course you have to. If you are concerned, how about raising the student council president’s dignity maintenance fee?”
“I don’t know why the maintenance fee is coming out here.”
“Isn’t that better than getting less?”
“…”
Hearing this, Park Do-woon raises a coffee cup with an absurd expression on his face.
The dignity maintenance fee was a concept like a subsidy paid to members with a specific position.
Perhaps, a student with a position of department manager or higher would have been receiving a fair amount of maintenance fees.
Above all, the maintenance cost is not something you can give more just because you want to give it more.
“You seem pretty confident.”
“What would you like to be? I just believe in myself.”
“Is this the end of the story? If I don’t have any more business, won’t you leave my seat for my next schedule?”
“All right. Thank you for your time.”
Seo Hyun-woo gets up from his seat and bows his head lightly.
Then he quickly exits the principal’s office.
Park Do-woon watches the back of Seo Hyun-woo until he disappears, and then takes a deep breath.
“I can’t afford to neglect your investigation. You’re the most honest and sincere student council president I’ve ever seen. Rather, there are no flaws, so I have doubts.”
***
Inside the student council president’s office.
Seo Hyun-woo, as usual, was taking a break from time to time while working.
No matter how busy they were, it was just office work, and there was simply a lot of it.
However, personal training and magic training had to be neglected, so I had no choice but to get a little tired.
‘Seo Hyun-woo trusted his own abilities too much. So I got seriously injured. Even if you draw with the main character, there is no guarantee that you will win the battle with the other Awakened.’
Obviously, Seo Hyun-woo’s copying ability was quite rare and powerful.
In addition, the amount of innate magical power and reproduction of the original technology were not lacking enough to be called a genius.
However, Seo Hyun-woo was not the main character of this world, and did he actually have problems with his left eye and right leg?
‘I’ve been having dark circles because I haven’t been able to sleep lately. I try to sleep, but it’s not easy. What’s surprising is that I can’t sleep at night, but I’m drowsy while working. Inflammation…’
For the first time, Seo Hyun-woo resents his body and yawns, even if it is small.
Seo Hyun-woo was just lacking in background and networking compared to others, and his appearance and practical capabilities were pretty good.
However, it was not even expected that he would have the characteristic of not being able to sleep well.
smart.
A knock was heard over the door of the student council president’s room.
Seo Hyun-woo immediately wakes up and pretends to be at work.
As the door opens, a silver-haired girl in a black uniform enters.
“Vice President, what’s going on?”
“I sent you a schedule for internal inspections of each department, but they didn’t confirm it.”
“…if that was the case, I could have sent you a separate message.”
“Of course you can. However, I decided that it would be better to see the condition of the president with my own eyes. maybe you don’t know It may be that I am sleeping without my knowledge.”
Baek Seo-yeon immediately moves and stops in front of her work desk.
Then, with his eyes narrowed, he looked into Seo Hyun-woo’s face.
Dark shadows were drawn deep under both eyes.
He didn’t know what he was doing at night, but it was clear that he couldn’t sleep well.
“Why would I do that at work?”
“The president should know better. What the hell do you do every night to get dark circles?”
“I don’t know what the problem is, but I can’t sleep. So that’s how it came to be.”
“Oh, you are. That’s pretty lax for an excuse. Thanks to the president, I can’t even sleep.”
Seo-yeon Baek took out her smartphone and held it in front of Hyun-woo Seo.
Seo Hyun-woo unconsciously looked into Baek Seo-yeon’s smartphone and checked the contents.
[Scarlet Lord(18:05): Vice President, do you know that?]
[Baek Seo-yeon (18:05): What are you talking about?]
[Scarlet Lord(18:06): Our kids said that. I wonder if the president and the vice president are dating.]
[Baek Seo-yeon (18:06): Where did you hear what? It can’t be, is it?]
[Scarlet Lord(18:06): Well, is it? The two got along pretty well.]
[Baekseoyeon (18:06): Control the mouths of the members carefully. Rumors are just rumors.]
[Scarlet Lord(18:08): But the president himself said he had a girlfriend?]
[Baek Seo-yeon (18:45): I will check it myself tomorrow.]
“I would love to hear an answer to this.”
“What else do I say? It’s just a rumor that I have a girlfriend.”
“So! Why am I involved in that?”
Baek Seo-yeon raised her tone and her eyes were shaking.
Seo Hyun-woo got up from his seat, laughing, and headed towards the coffee pot.
“It must have been just a coincidence. You are the only student who goes with me.”
“Isn’t this rumor going around because the president did something?”
“Uh… I did something. I said openly that I had a girlfriend.”
“Yes? So do you really have a girlfriend?”
“right. There is.”
Seo Hyun-woo answered by pouring water into the coffee pot.
I wanted to tell Baek Seo-yeon the truth for a moment, but it was meaningless.
If I had to find out the truth for nothing, I would be nagging about what I did to something useless.
“Ah, I must have been unable to sleep because I was secretly meeting with my girlfriend every night.”
“If that was the case, wouldn’t we have had to give up the position of student council president from the beginning?”
“What the hell did you believe in saying that? The president, me, and the students have no choice but to get attention!”
“It’s like that on purpose. It’s annoying because there are a lot of kids who come at me.”
“under! I’m sure you’ll be happy that I sold it too.”
“There’s nothing bad about you, right? If rumors spread that you’re dating me, the boys won’t even approach you, right? to think good Life in Miterici, you and I, has become a little easier.”
