The number of elevator lights rapidly decreased.
And even more than that, Kang Hyeon-do’s heart also pulsed rapidly.
“I… wouldn’t it have been a much wiser decision to go down the stairs rather than the elevator?”
“Did you turn around? “What if I run into that crazy bastard on the stairs?”
Kang Hyeon-do shouted at his aide who was in the elevator with him.
In the aide’s hands was a bulging golf bag that looked like it was about to burst.
It was none other than a golf bag stuffed with a bunch of bills that had just been taken out of the office safe.
It can be said that all of the cashed amount of the organization’s total operating funds is contained there.
At this level, there would be no problem hiding somewhere for the time being and continuing a life of refuge.
‘Shii-foot! Si-foot! He was absolutely crazy! ‘That crazy psycho bastard whose eyes have completely gone crazy!’
Kang Hyeon-do trembled and trembled.
Earlier, when I heard a commotion downstairs, I opened the door, stuck my head out, and saw the crazy person.
The true vision of chopping up humans like meat, like a psychopath possessed by some kind of evil spirit.
Even he, who had been living in the underworld for 20 years, was sick of it.
And my instinct after 20 years of living in the underworld warned me like this.
Don’t attack that guy.
There is something else to touch.
So, I immediately took all the money in the safe and headed to the parking lot where my car was waiting.
“Contact me.”
“yes?”
“Try contacting Lee Do-won… or Yoon Do-cheol!”
The only hope is for the organization’s best forces, Lee Won-do and Yoon Do-cheol, to stop that crazy psycho bastard.
The aide quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket and called the two.
But neither of them answered the phone until the signal was lost.
There was dejection in the aide’s voice.
“Oh, I’m not accepting it?”
“That’s it then.”
“yes?”
“Baby, think about it. The fact that they’re not answering the phone right now means they’re busy fighting with that psycho bastard right now, so they don’t have time to answer the phone, right? is not it?”
“But…”
“I bought time to run away. Think good and good. Damn it.”
It was a time when the two of us were working hard to burn the happiness circuit.
“yes. president. Then I think it’s a good idea-”
Kkwajijik-!
A sharp sound, like opening a bag of chips, struck my ears. The sound of
someone
reaching out and grabbing something followed, and the body of the aide who was speaking suddenly rose upward.
…?
Kang Hyeon-do, who wanted something, raised his head and looked up.
Struggling –
There was a horizontal crack in the ceiling of the elevator, and the aide, whose head was stuck in the gap, was struggling with his legs hanging in the air.
“Boss…! Uh huh? Ouch! What is this! What the fuck! Siivaaa- al!!”
Every time a curse-filled word came out of the aide’s mouth, his legs started jerking like a crazy person.
Kwasik Kwasik-!
“Ugh kkeuk kkeuk…!”
He moaned a few times, and then his legs, which had been struggling like crazy, went limp in the air.
And then….
Suddenly,
the aide’s body fell down.
His face, lying on the floor, had been torn off from the back of his head on the left side to his right cheek.
“Ugh…!”
Kang Hyeon-do, who almost vomited without realizing it, looked up inadvertently.
A wide hole in the ceiling of the elevator.
Beyond that black hole, isn’t a monster with rotten flesh staring at Kang Hyeon-do with bloodshot eyes?
“omg?”
I was so surprised that it took my breath away.
Crunchy crackling crackling!
Meanwhile, that unidentified monster was tearing the hard ceiling of the elevator like it was tearing a plastic bag. At the same time as
he opens his ugly mouth towards Kang Hyeon-
do,
ding!
At a miraculous timing, the elevator light indicated B2, where the underground parking lot was located.
“Hee hee!”
As soon as the door opened, Kang Hyeon-do left the elevator, almost crawling.
It wasn’t far from where the car was parked.
As he ran to the car, Kang Hyeon-do’s thumb was frantically hitting the smart key button.
Sigh –
And it is human habit to have no choice but to turn your head once in the middle of running like that.
Oh, Hyeon-
do Kang could see the man-eating monster running like crazy and chasing him.
“Ugh! Argh-!”
Kang Hyeon-do, who now felt like this moment was nothing but a nightmare, ran and ran.
Beep –
Finally, the car parked behind the pillar responded to the remote button on the smart key.
At the same time as Kang Hyeon-do opened the car door, sat down on the seat, and closed the door again.
Tung-!
The command soldier, who had been chasing the car to the point where it was almost dangerous, stopped by the vehicle.
“Fuck you! Shiba-al!”
Kang Hyeon-do started the engine and stepped on the accelerator with the feeling that the soles of his feet would explode.
Boom – Squeak!
The vehicle turned sharply to the side, leaving skid marks on the parking lot floor.
The command soldier who was hanging on the car body was unable to overcome the sudden inertia and fell off.
‘quickly…!’
Repeating those words to himself, Kang Hyeon-do turned the steering wheel this way and that.
Until then, Kang Hyeon-do’s vehicle was heading smoothly toward the parking lot entrance leading to the ground.
but.
Kang Hyeon-do, who was not in a state of panic, did not notice until then.
Wow –
dozens of command soldiers had already finished preparing to drop from the railing on the first basement floor.
bang-!
Without hesitation, the command soldiers threw themselves under the railing and hit the sunroof of Kang Hyeon-do’s vehicle.
Patter!
Tongtongtong-!
“What the hell!”
Of course, Kang Hyeon-do, who was only focused on looking ahead, would have no way of knowing what was going on.
All you can tell is that strange chunks suddenly fell on the car.
But that doubt did not last long.
Thirty command soldiers slipped from the sunroof and fell to the ground, immediately surrounding Kang Hyeon-do’s car.
“Now wait a minute.”
Clink-!
The hands of command soldiers protruded through the solid car door glass and forcibly pulled Kang Hyeon-do out of the driver’s seat.
“Now wait a minute. “Wait a minute…” When
a person goes over a corner and is driven to a cliff, not even a scream comes out.
Oh,
wow!
The sight of zombie-like monsters swarming like bees and roaring before my eyes was truly hellish.
Kang Hyeon-do became thoughtful and took out a self-defense pistol from his pocket.
Bang bang!
Ah-!
The bullet did not effectively hit the commanding officer who had already died once.
But it was enough as a threat to temporarily make them retreat.
“die! “Die, you bastards!”
Kang Hyeon-do, who had become half crazy, fired bullets.
Crisp –
The limbs of the commanding officer, who had become as dry as an old tree, burst apart.
***
“Hmm….”
Meanwhile.
Daesung was just watching this whole scene from afar.
‘As expected, it’s too weak.’
He first sent out Suyoung Jeong’s command soldier as the leader, and then summoned the remaining 32 commands that had been absorbed as soldiers at once.
There is no grand reason.
The greater the number of hunting dogs chasing prey, the higher the chance of successful hunting.
That was it.
And it wasn’t a bad decision.
‘These guys are useless idiots except for their sense of smell.’
After the thirty summoned command soldiers waited at the railing on the first basement floor in advance.
That sense of hitting exactly where Kang Hyeon-do’s car is moving from downstairs.
Even Daesung, who rarely admired it, was surprised for a moment.
‘But it’s too much to have 30 animals struggling with just one person.’
A hunting dog is a hunting dog, but can we say it is a hunting dog with missing teeth?
Anyway, that wasn’t important right now.
“stop.”
Daesung raised his hand and stopped the movement of the command soldiers.
At that short command, the commanders who were panting like mad dogs all stopped moving.
“Huh, huh…”
Kang Hyeon-do, who had literally swam at the bottom of hell, crawled on the bottom.
Step by step, step by step –
and the sight of Daesung approaching Kang Hyeon-do step by step was like the grim reaper itself.
“Huh…!”
Kang Hyeon-do is not the leader of an organization and has been moving around the underworld for decades.
He was a man who could make wise decisions about how to respond in these situations.
“Please save me!”
He lay down on the floor and bowed his head deeply.
And he begged for his life with his hands and feet.
“Please save me… I will give you everything you ask for! If you have any information you need, I’ll give it to you! Instead, please just save me!”
It was Kang Hyeon-do, who reigned as a big name in the world of darkness and earned the awe and fear of many people. But now he has been reduced to a coward who only knows how to beg for his life.
“You give me everything I ask for?”
Daesung asked that.
If it had been the same, no matter what the other person said, he would have been killed without question or answer.
But the word of giving something put a brake on his movements.
Kang Hyeon-do, who noticed the presence, bowed his head and smiled faintly.
I have no intention of stabbing you in the back. As he just mentioned, he was going to give everything he asked for and say everything he was asked to say.
If you can live like that, if you can survive, the sun of tomorrow will definitely rise.
“If you want to live, at least give me money.”
“Yes yes! Sure! I’ll give you everything! “First of all, in the elevator, there’s a golf bag with emergency money in it…”
Kang Hyeon-do started off like that and quietly confessed everything, even the things he didn’t ask for.
For example, a black market place where the organization’s illegal funds and everything that has been obtained through unfair means are stored.
Or even the location of a secret factory that manufactures drugs, which is one of the main sources of income for the Shinheungdongpa, other than the money lending business.
I wasn’t interested in the drug factory, but the story about the black market intrigued me.
The amount mentioned in the story alone was a whopping 3 billion won.
In other words, Kang Hyeon-do is trying to replace the price of his life with 3 billion won.
‘It’s not a bad daily income.’
All Daesung wanted was money.
Because his only wish is to make a lot of money so that Hye-jeong and Ji-soo can stop suffering and become prosperous.
‘I’m getting an unexpected harvest.’
It was only now that I felt the reward of going back and forth to the Pantheon.
Maybe I was curious because I didn’t get an answer from Daesung for a while.
Kang Hyeon-do, who was bowing his head, glanced up and asked.
“Are you going to save me?”
“I’ll save you.”
Just –
Daesung snapped his fingers and walked to the elevator where he said he had a golf bag containing emergency funds.
Kang Hyeon-do felt even the slightest emotion at Daesung’s generous generosity, which showed forgiveness so readily.
Kwasik-!
“uh…?”
That is, until one of the command soldiers closest bit the back of his neck.
Kwasik-!
Daesung hinted at Kang Hyeon-do, who had a dumbfounded expression and was pouring out blood.
“‘I’ saved his life.”
“Now wait! for a moment…! Knock! “Kwaaaaak!”
At first, the two guys started biting Kang Hyeon-do’s neck, and right after that, the remaining thirty command soldiers rushed at him like moths.
Kwasik-! Wood-duk-!
Leaving behind Kang Hyeon-do’s miserable screams, Daesung headed to the elevator and checked his golf bag.
‘It wasn’t a lie.’
Daesung, who confirmed that there was a bundle of money in it, threw the golf bag into the subspace pocket.
After exiting the elevator, he approached Kang Hyeon-do again.
His appearance was miserable.
In the short time Daesung had left and returned from the elevator, two-thirds of Kang Hyeon-do’s body had already been eaten away.
What’s even more surprising is that
Kang Hyeon-do
was still breathing even then, “Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss2s22222d2221d2122)
Great.
‘Because I wanted to kill this guy with my own hands.’
Daesung said, looking down at Kang Hyeon-do, who was completely injured, with emotionless eyes.
“I wanted to live quietly.”
“Huh- Fu- Fu-”
“If you’re going to kill someone, you have to be prepared to die yourself. “It’s probably the same in hell or on Earth or anywhere.”
“Kill me, kill me… Just kill me quickly…”
“Earlier you were begging for my life, but this time you’re asking me to kill you.”
I was able to grant that wish.
Kwasik-!
Just like crushing a tin can on the floor, Daesung stomped on Kang Hyeon-do’s face as he begged to be killed.
Drops of blood made a splashing sound and lightly splashed on Daesung’s face.
In this way, Kang Hyeon-do found eternal rest and left this world. I couldn’t tell whether he would have been happy or not because his face was completely broken.
‘It’s a black market…’
After cleaning up all the bugs, Daesung’s next interest was the black market.
According to the question and answer just shared with Kang Hyeon-do, the black market refers to a black market in which underground funds and goods are distributed through illegal routes.
The location is the basement of the market in Kkachisan Mountain, Hwagok-dong.
‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to go and collect everything.’
Of course not right away.
It was late today and his appearance was a mess.
Above all, my family will worry if I go home any later than this.
At the time when Daesung was trying to absorb the rag-like corpse of Kang Hyeon-do by reducing the number of souls.
Tiriri-!
When the phone rang, Daesung took out his cell phone and pressed the call button.
“hello.”
[Why didn’t you answer the phone earlier?]
It was Seong Chan-ho.
I took my phone off my ear for a moment and checked my call history, and there were five missed calls from Seong Chan-ho.
It seemed like he couldn’t hear the vibration because he was exterminating the bugs in a trance.
“sorry.”
[You really… that’s enough. Hey, are you hurt anywhere?]
“Nothing.”
[…Thank goodness.]
Seong Chan-ho let out a long sigh, perhaps because he was genuinely worried.
It was just a phone call to Seong Chan-ho to say hello.
Daesung keenly felt his mistake.
[Well, let’s meet and talk about the details first. Where are you now?]
If I were to be honest and say that it was the Sinheungdongpa parking lot, things would get quite annoying.
Daesung gave a vague answer.
“I think it’s near the restaurant we were at earlier.”
[Then can you come back to that restaurant?]
“Uh.”
[okay. Then wait there. There will probably be a lot of soldiers there by now. Those are the guys dispatched by the association to clean up the scene of the incident, right? When they ask you what you are doing, tell them you were hiding nearby because you couldn’t evacuate.]
“Is it better to hide the fact that I killed the goblins?”
[of course. Why make things complicated for no reason? Besides, you still don’t have a license…]
Seong Chan-ho, who was trying to continue his lengthy explanation, trailed off and sighed.
This is because it was too much of a matter to convey it all over the phone now.
[Let’s meet for a detailed explanation. I’ll go there right away.]
“Okay.”
Beep –
Seong Chan-ho told him to come to the restaurant right away, but Daesung had something to take care of.
‘I’ll have to make sure I cut off the head.’
Thinking like that, Daesung looked down at Kang Hyeon-do’s body lying crushed and lying next to him.
It was necessary to bring him back to life as a command soldier and glimpse his memories.
First of all, in the hood woman’s memory, Kang Hyeon-do was the ultimate mastermind, but that was only from her perspective.
The possibility that there was another hidden background beyond Ganghyeon Island could not be ruled out.
“Collection.”
Shuwaak –
Daeseong absorbed Kang Hyeon-do’s body into the soul detention center and resurrected him as a spirit soldier. I made direct eye contact
with
the guy who was letting out an evil cry.
As soon as I began to resonate with the soul of the thing, the memories of when I was still alive unfolded in a panorama.
-Yes, Captain. yes! Sure. I didn’t forget. –
-We’re meeting at an abandoned factory in Geumcheon in two weeks, right? No, I have to meet him in person.-
-Oh my, what kind of person is the leader? I think this much is natural.-
Kang Hyeon-do, who had a high arrogance, showed courtesy by even using honorifics for each person.
As I followed the flow of memory a little further, I was able to find out who Kang Hyeon-do was talking to on the phone.
‘Lee Seok-woo, leader of the < Red Demon > clan.’
I don’t know what this guy is doing.
Unfortunately, it was impossible to figure out the guy’s identity based on Kang Hyeon-do’s memories alone.
However, Kang Hyeon-do’s feelings toward Lee Seok-woo were full of tension.
It also seemed like he was paying attention to every word he chose so as not to offend his intentions.
-Damn it, Lee Seok-woo said he would come to the transaction site in person, so I can’t not go…
– -Anyway, thanks to the Hongma guys, our position has become quite plausible. If he’s a benefactor, he’s a benefactor.
– -The thought of facing that bastard makes me tremble.- Just
by checking these fragments of memory, I was able to see how much Kang Hyeon-do was afraid of Lee Seok-woo.
Additionally, although it wasn’t my intention, I was able to figure out the identity of the product they were going to trade in two weeks.
‘…fusion ampoule?’
It was a medicine packaged with some kind of serum sap.
And when he found out where the serum would be used, Daesung shook his head.
‘…They are not sane people.’
According to this memory, not only Kang Hyeon-do but also Seok-woo Lee, with whom he had a business relationship, are extremely evil people.
Still, it’s none of his business.
Because at least one thing was certain.
‘This guy is only in a temporary business relationship with Kang Hyeon-do. He is not the kind of guy who will point his teeth at me.’
Unless Lee Seok-woo was behind the direct order to kill him, there was no need for Daesung to pay attention to him.
Of course, there were no risk factors at all.
‘I killed Kang Hyeon-do, who was supposed to pay the transaction amount, so the spark could fly on me for no reason.’
So, it would be a good idea to prepare at least a little bit.
Still, it wouldn’t have mattered as long as Lee Seok-woo didn’t touch him first.
As long as you don’t touch it, it stays quiet.
Because that is Daesung’s iron rule.
I had no intention of getting involved in a dirty incident by going out of my way to eliminate this level of anxiety.
“Collection.”
Daeseong returned all the command soldiers around him to the soul detention center and headed to the ground.
Leaving the parking lot behind as if nothing had happened.
