Episode 96
‘It’s done.’
Yoo Joong-ho smiled inwardly.
It took a really long time to get here. Although Choi Jun-ho’s outside activities have become quite frequent, it was as difficult as picking a star in the sky for a member of the National Assembly to see him.
Even if we ran into each other at an event, they often did not interact, and even if we asked to meet, they were often ignored.
Choi Jun-ho was the one who played the game, but kept his distance more than anyone else.
That’s why it felt even sweeter. I was confident that if we only met once, everything would proceed smoothly.
‘This guy’s social skills are poor. We are actively targeting that area.’
The reason why Yoo Joong-ho wanted to meet Choi Jun-ho was simple. This is because he committed himself to the league a long time ago and is working hard to take power in this country without revealing his identity.
Yoo Joong-ho came up with a plan so that Choi Jun-ho would have no choice but to come to the league.
The first strategy was the Equal Application Act. If your actions become a crime, you will not be able to fit into society normally.
I hate the National Assembly and am disappointed in the government. And they will leave this country resentful of the people who do not protect them.
If he becomes free, many countries will come forward to invite him, but now that he realizes that the government sees him as a tool, the only place he can go is the league.
It limits your options through subtle gaslighting.
Therefore, Yoo Joong-ho acted as a bridge between the opposition party and contributed to the proposal of the Equal Application Act.
However, it was canceled due to media response.
It’s nothing more than an outright threat.
Although they were offended by Choi Jun-ho’s words, the lawmakers who proposed the bill will never go to the site.
If lawmakers do not show proactiveness, their momentum will naturally be lost.
‘It’s not that easy.’
Although it was not revealed on the surface, Choi Jun-ho’s political power was unexpectedly significant. If they can fully use those skills for the league, the world they want will come sooner.
Yoo Joong-ho dreamed of a world ruled by superhumans.
He was an outstanding awakened person when he was young, but he could not accept that someone lower than him was his boss and the person in charge was a non-awakened person.
Why do I have to listen to orders from someone worse than me?
The number of monsters he hunted was smaller than that of him, and the danger was low.
What did they prove? By what qualifications?
If that’s the norm, wouldn’t the world be wrong?
If you look closely, the countless things the world has designated as ‘injustice’ actually happened before the awakened people and demons appeared.
They did not make any changes to protect their vested interests. As a result, contradictions were piling up in the distorted world.
‘Scumbags.’
Non-awakened people still think they are on the same level as awakened people.
This is a completely wrong idea.
The current society is maintained by the blood of awakened people, including superhumans, and non-awakened people only complain about trivial accidents behind the scenes.
On a subject for which I have no qualifications.
They are grateful for the world created by superhumans, and all they have to do is provide their own labor.
If you are dissatisfied, you become an awakened person. But it won’t work.
You need to know why the Awakened are chosen and the special abilities given to a small number of them are called gifts.
A world where people are treated strictly according to their abilities.
Could this really be the right direction?
‘I am justice.’
When I first heard Choi Jun-ho’s story, I couldn’t easily believe it.
A superhuman who is wary of even the three evils of the League.
To Yoo Joong-ho, the three evils of the league were absolute good and transcendent beings with absolute power.
It was hard to believe that a superhuman who was only a year old had risen to the same level as them.
‘But you have to believe it.’
Because it came from Argos and no one else.
He was a superman and a savior who would purify this rotten world.
Now that the first plan had failed, it was time to put the second into action.
‘With my three-dimensional tongue, I make it so that Choi Jun-ho has no choice but to come to the league.’
By building friendships and pretending to sympathize, you can gradually increase your favorability towards the league.
He wins the presidency and engulfs this country, and Choi Jun-ho becomes a member of the league.
It gave me a thrill to know that something that would change the world in the future was being accomplished by my own hands.
Until Choi Jun-ho, in front of me, turned his cold, murderous energy towards me.
“It’s fascinating.”
“What do you mean?”
Yoo Joong-ho felt himself overwhelmed.
Is this the momentum of a superhuman?
No, it’s different.
Choi Jun-ho was not hiding his desire to kill himself.
Did you see it for the first time today?
why?
“Everyone from the league is good at keeping their mouths shut.”
“···What are you talking about? “Are you sure I’m from the league?”
“That’s right.”
“gibberish! “Can you handle it if this statement is false?”
Although his heart was pounding, Yoo Joong-ho actually raised his voice. I instinctively felt that if I stopped here, there would be no turning back.
‘Okay. There is no evidence.’
He has never once revealed that he is from the league.
It’s about floating.
“I can handle it.”
“Do you have any proof?”
“Since when did I start using evidence?”
Choi Jun-ho was a guy who could really commit a crime.
I thought I could understand why lawmakers were making such a fuss over the Equal Application Act.
It was a crazy dog. A crazy dog that should never be interacted with.
Yoo Joong-ho rolled his eyes. I have to get out of this place somehow. Then the way to live is opened.
I diligently racked my brain and came up with the final move.
“I am a member of the National Assembly. Members of the National Assembly have immunity and the right not to be arrested. “No matter how superhuman you are, if you touch something, the accident will be serious.”
“What do you know?”
puck!
With the pain spreading to his head, Yoo Joong-ho lost consciousness.
*Yoo Joong-ho is someone who left a deep impression on me personally.
I remember being surprised that a League spy hid his identity and even became a presidential candidate.
Of course, this is not the only thing I remember. When it was revealed that I was a League spy, the country was turned upside down and the siege that surrounded me was loosened.
Although it was quite a pain, I was able to get out of it easily.
So, from my perspective, I have no choice but to remember Yoo Joong-ho. But I don’t remember how his identity was revealed. There is no need to know the process. All you need to know is that he is a League spy.
Because I caught it anyway. It could be a gang from the same league, so I got all the attendants.
I was planning to quietly share the information in my head, but it started appearing on TV three hours after I caught it.
< Rep. Yoo Joong-ho goes missing! >
< Rep. Yoo Joong-ho goes missing with his entourage while executing his schedule! >
< Obviously unknown! What happened to Representative Yoo Joong-ho? >
< Rep. Yoo Joong-ho, a young blood of the ruling party with skills and sense! >
The country was turned upside down. He, a member of the ruling party’s minor faction and a promising candidate for the next presidential election due to his clean-cut image, eloquent speech, and wide range of interactions, has disappeared.
Will things change like this if one member of the National Assembly disappears?
I didn’t feel the need to reveal anything, but it didn’t take long for my whereabouts to be revealed.
It was reported that Yoo Joong-ho was meeting with me.
Immediately, not only the ruling party but also the opposition party joined in and asked about Yoo Joong-ho’s whereabouts.
The answer to that was already decided.
-Contact Awakened Security Office Director Cheon Myeong-guk.
This might buy me some time.
For your information, I did not inform Cheon Myeong-guk of the fact.
If you suffer for a while, it will buy you some time.
In the meantime, I took Yu Joong-ho with me to find reinforcements who could help me. In times like these, it’s great to be able to ask someone for help.
When I had a hematoma, there was no place to get help, so the only option was to kill everyone.
People called me a rare killer, but they did it because there was no way.
Anyway, when I visited, the long-legged man ran wild all over the place, probably because he had heard the news.
“You crazy guy! Why bring a bomb here!”
“When I thought about who I could ask for advice from, the only person I could find was the Commissioner.”
“Why me? There’s Director Cheon and Team Leader Lee Se-hee! “Why are you bringing it to me!”
Jeong Joo-ho turned blue and shouted.
It was the National Front Defense Agency led by Jeong Ju-ho that I subdued and brought in Yoo Joong-ho.
You say you’re going to help anyway, but you’re just throwing it away.
“I already committed it, so please help me.”
“Sir, this is why I didn’t want to become the commissioner, so why am I being put through this ordeal? This is all because of that son of a bitch. So that you can suffer like this by recommending me. “Fill the toilet full of shit, you bastard.”
When I’m worried about hair loss and I’m really stressed, I tear my hair out roughly. Fortunately, I don’t look at my hands. I just grabbed a bunch.
Jung Joo-ho asked me with a serious expression.
“Once we’ve done it, let’s fix it. “Is that guy really a League spy?”
“you’re right.”
“how did you know?”
“That’s my feeling.”
“···First of all, I understand that there is no basis. But you know that if he doesn’t blow, there’s no way to prove it, right?”
“I was wondering if I could use brainwashing.”
“Is that going to work! An active member of the National Assembly! “There are more than one person who is already going against you!”
“is that so.”
“Yeah dude! Oh really!”
They say no if it doesn’t work out, and it’s quite hysterical.
But what can’t be done? Anyway, if you blow the truth out of your mouth, it will be resolved.
I know this well because I have seen certain facts from the future.
Well, he may not have joined the league yet, but from what he’s saying, it seems like he has an affinity for the league, so it seems like he could save Sakchojegeun’s grave.
I can’t say I saw the future.
I feel lonely because I feel like I am not understood even though I am working for this country.
Maybe they should have just killed him and buried him quietly.
Jung Joo-ho, who had calmed down after going crazy alone, spoke in a calm voice.
“It was a good decision to come here. “Because it’s an unexpected place.”
However, it was said that there was a high probability that the Blue House already knew about it.
You probably know.
Because I came with the excuse of being Cheon Myeong-guk.
Not long after, Cheon Myeong-guk came in with urgent steps.
“Choi Jun-ho, superhuman.”
“Are you here, Manager?”
Cheon Myeong-guk was clutching his stomach, turning white. No matter how urgent you are, stop by the bathroom first. Meanwhile, his smartphone was beeping loudly, but Cheon Myeong-guk chose to turn it off altogether.
“Is it true that Representative Yoo Joong-ho has been detained?”
“yes. “Here it is.”
As I kicked the lying guy with my foot, Cheon Myeong-guk’s expression hardened.
“···why?”
“I’m a League spy. “Oh, I haven’t confessed to myself yet.”
“······.”
Cheon Myeong-guk’s complexion became whiter at my words. It was to the point where I wondered if a problem would arise if things continued like this.
As expected, a voice filled with concern came out.
“···This is something that requires taking a significant risk. Can you take responsibility?”
“Has anything I’ve claimed so far been false?”
“doesn’t exist.”
Although I tend to be a bit excessive in my actions, I have never done anything to anyone.
Jeong Joo-ho, Cheon Myeong-guk, and everyone around me would all agree with this.
“There may be more League spies among those related to Yoo Joong-ho.”
“We will take action right away.”
“I take the lead.”
Since I did it, I should take the lead in resolving it.
This is straight-up brainwashing, so I’ll have to ask the president first.
*Among those related to Yoo Joong-ho, there was a League spy.
All of the aides who revealed their identities in the lawmaker’s office were killed, and those who surrendered were also arrested.
Choi Jun-ho stood in front of him. Those who were in the way had their limbs broken and some were seriously injured.
Behind Choi Jun-ho, who struck like lightning, the awakened people of the Awakened Security Office confiscated all the items from Rep. Yoo Joong-ho’s office.
“······!”
Ji Chang-yong, who came late, tried to move forward, but the moment he made eye contact with Choi Jun-ho, he was unable to do anything.
This kid is truly crazy. He did not respect his status as the ruling party leader at all.
The lawmakers who proposed the Equal Application Act were right.
You have to put a leash around his neck at all costs.
But I couldn’t do anything right now.
He is a crazy person who used his hands even after entering the National Assembly.
It felt like if I resisted this violently, my heart would be ripped out at any moment.
“Please do the work later.”
“yes.”
As Choi Jun-ho left his position as if he had finished his business, Ji Chang-yong, who had barely escaped the pressure, exploded in anger at Cheon Myeong-guk.
“Director Cheon. “Do you know what this is?”
“I know.”
“Do you think I’ll just stay like this?”
“You must remain still. “Otherwise, the CEO may also become a suspect.”
“What are you saying…”
“There is a suspicion that Representative Yoo Joong-ho is a League spy.”
“······!”
Ji Chang-yong, who was angry, felt his head turn cold.
An active member of the National Assembly is a League spy? The impact this would have was enormous.
He turned white and was out of breath.
“Did you commit this act based solely on suspicion?”
“The person who suggested that suspicion was Superin Choi Jun-ho. “So far, Choi Jun-ho has never been wrong when he points out something.”
They said they did something without any evidence.
Normally I would have screamed.
But what if it’s true?
A member of the ruling party’s minor faction and mentioned as the next presidential candidate was a League spy?
If we are not careful, the entire party could be destroyed.
“So please be kind to other lawmakers. “When the investigation is completed, the President will send a message directly.”
“…Please tell me I can’t wait long.”
“yes.”
Cheon Myeong-guk returned that way. Looking at the back, Ji Chang-yong was unable to continue speaking.
*The Yoo Joong-ho case was surprisingly easily resolved when the President intervened.
Although I had no use for brainwashing, the President personally recruited competent spiritual awakeners and succeeded in uncovering that Yoo Joong-ho was a League spy.
< Rep. Yoo Joong-ho turned out to be a league spy... >
< Blue “Re-elected lawmaker Yoo Joong-ho, a member of the ruling party, is a league spy.” >
< Party representative Ji Chang-yong “I apologize to the people...” >
Active National Assembly member is a league spy. He was a spy!
The country was turned upside down. The news was all covered with the fact that Yoo Joong-ho was a League spy.
“You saved the country. thank you so much.”
“I just did my job.”
In fact, catching Yoo Joong-ho was almost a coincidence. What if the name didn’t feel familiar? What if you didn’t remember the name Yoo Joong-ho? I wouldn’t have caught it. If they had tried to catch him after he became a presidential candidate, the noise would have been much worse.
“Still, I’m thankful. “Shouldn’t we take care of this person well?”
“Thank you at least for your words.”
“Just words. “I also exercised my right to veto the Equal Application Act.”
“Yes, thank you.”
I don’t know what to do.
As I stared blankly, the President cleared his throat.
“This matter is our party’s mistake, so we will definitely take action. “The Equal Application Act will be withdrawn, and party members will not be able to be bothered any more.”
“I think I may have passed on a troublesome task.”
“at all. “It was a time when cutting was necessary.”
What followed was political logic. Since it is a power that has an end, the party will use this opportunity to correct its slight deviation from the Blue House’s ideas.
Because it doesn’t matter to me.
“Then please do me a favor.”
“Take care of it so that no gossip comes out.”
I was about to leave the Blue House after finishing my conversation with the President.
Reporters surrounded my car, wondering where they had heard the news. As the rumor that a sitting member of the National Assembly was a League spy came to light, people clamored to hear even a word from me.
If I keep doing this, I’ll kill people.
I had no choice but to get out of the car.
“Is Rep. Yoo Joong-ho a League spy?”
“How did you find out?”
“Was there anything coercive in the process?”
When questions come pouring in in such a disorderly manner, you have to answer them one by one. It’s better to just say what I have to say.
“The reason he was convinced that Yoo Joong-ho was a League spy was because he pretended to persuade me and tried to sow dissatisfaction with the existing system. “To get me into the league.”
“······.”
The reporters swallowed their saliva at my words.
“Yoo Joong-ho expressed his support for the Equal Application Act. It is good to apply the law without discrimination between awakened and non-awakened people, but it is time to think about whether the intention is to tie a rope around the neck of the awakened and dedicate this country to the league.”
After leaving those words, I got in my car and left the Blue House and headed to Choi Jun-ho’s team’s office, which is the building next to Shinsung Guild.
I thought everyone had gone, but Jin Se-jeong stayed. He’s working overtime.
“Reporters and lawmakers will not be able to criticize us. Wow! “I think Choin is truly amazing.”
“I was lucky.”
“I know it’s a skill.”
I felt like he was overestimating me.
It’s just the result of coincidence and coincidence.
I don’t think they will believe me if I say more, so I guess I’ll just have to do it.
“I especially liked the last sentence. Now, it will be difficult for the National Assembly to create a bill targeting superhumans. The bill that restricts the Awakened will soon lead to attacks accusing them of being League spies. “You wouldn’t want to take that risk.”
“That’s good news.”
“Yes, it’s good. Because it doesn’t go against the times. oh! wait a minute! “Superin’s article has appeared.”
Jin Se-jeong asked for my understanding and diligently tapped on the keyboard.
“Hehehe!”
He was smiling sinisterly, and even to a third party, it looked very suspicious.
“What are you doing?”
“ah! You don’t know why you’re working overtime. Right now, an article is being posted saying that Choin is the one who revealed Yoo Joong-ho’s identity. “There are malicious comments there.”
“Hate comments?”
Who is posting malicious comments? Yoo Joong-ho? What can I do by swearing at him?
However, the target of Jin Se-jeong’s malicious comments was not Yoo Joong-ho.
“Yes, there are malicious comments insulting Choin on Choin’s article.”
me? Me?
What are you talking about? Am I hearing this right?
Jin Se-jeong turned her head to me and curled the corner of her mouth.
“In order for Choin’s fans to unite, there needs to be a common enemy. There are a few Eokkas, but I’m still active as a villain because I don’t have enough skills. Then the fans step up to protect Choin. and! Check this out! Banjosu and Licomen are running incredibly well. “It’s all swearing! Choin has so many fans!”
“······.”
It was my first time going back to the past.
I couldn’t take action against the person who cursed at me in front of me.
