Central police station located in Berlin, Germany.
As soon as my disguised identity was discovered, I, Director Lee Ah-young, and Chloe were arrested by police officers and detained in a detention center.
And we were there.
“….”
“….”
“….”
Neither said anything.
Instead, he only let out a small sigh every now and then.
“…What on earth is this?”
At a time when there was only heavy silence, Director Lee Ah-young opened his mouth in a dazed voice.
“Anyway… it looks like there was no discussion with Hanbyul Construction.”
“What is that…?”
“From what I can see, it appears that Director Ha Seong-il did this on his own.”
“I didn’t look at people like that…”
Director Lee Ah-young stuck out his tongue as if he was shocked.
And I was equally as shocked.
The situation has become a headache.
From the looks of it, it looks like he didn’t persuade Hanbyul Construction, but just secretly changed his affiliation and stole the contract…
‘If he didn’t think it would work, he said so…’
I nervously brushed my hair as the situation was quite complicated.
I know that I’m the type of person who makes things happen when things don’t work out, but… I never thought I would do something like this.
Thanks to you, aren’t we the only ones in trouble?
When I go back to Korea, I’ll have to give you a pep talk.
As I was making that promise, Director Lee Ah-young asked again.
“What do we do now? “Is it possible to be released?”
“If headquarters takes action, he will be released, but he will probably be deported right away.”
“Then what about air raid preparations…?”
“I wouldn’t even be able to enter the German association, let alone prepare for it.”
“Haa….”
Director Lee Ah-young’s deep sigh echoed throughout the detention center.
It was a time when everyone was just looking at the floor with a confused expression.
“I thought it was a fairly prosperous organization, but there is no such thing as a car repair team.”
Chloe, who was sitting in the corner, burst into laughter and muttered.
“…I beg your pardon? “What did you say just now?”
At the same time, Director Lee Ah-young reacted immediately.
“Why are you so upset all of a sudden?”
“Every time I put on a show to get someone to accept me, I’m so upset that they’re saying something like that now.”
“Well, I was like that back then. ”
Chloe continued, openly mocking.
“And honestly, did I say something wrong? “What kind of organization called an international organization steals contracts from private companies without even telling them and makes things like this?”
“That…”
Director Lee Ah-young hesitated at Chloe’s striking words.
In fact, in the current situation, anyone could see that Chloe was right, but even so, it seemed that Director Lee Ah-young could not stay still.
“Then why don’t you try to come up with something? “Who can’t stand still until something happens and then start making a fuss?!”
“No, I didn’t do anything wrong, so why am I taking action? “A good support manager should do it.”
“Ah-oh! It really pisses me off! When you go back to Korea, leave it behind…!”
“Stop it.”
The atmosphere is becoming increasingly overheated.
It was obvious that it would become more troublesome if the police officers started to intervene, so I quickly stopped them.
“Why are they so upset that they can’t eat each other? “And that too by coming to someone else’s country.”
“No, this woman goes first…!”
“The head of support, your personality is really strange. hey. “Do you think it would be better to just fire that person and make me sit down?”
“what?! Hey, did you say everything?!”
“uh? Are you going to hit me?”
“….”
The two women quickly got up from their seats.
I looked at them and sighed.
‘I wish it would just all go off…’
I muttered like that for a while.
“Both of you calm down and sit down. If you’re not a kid, what are you doing now? “It’s embarrassing for grown adults.”
I opened my mouth, suppressing my anger.
“If things have already gone wrong, whining now won’t change anything. “If we have time to fight, let’s come up with a plan.”
“….”
“….”
After saying that, the two women cooled their emotions and sat down calmly.
I continued speaking slowly.
“First of all… Chloe.”
“why?”
“Do you know when the Lions Clubs International will carry out an airstrike?”
“That can’t be right.”
She laughed and shook her head.
“To begin with, the air raid area was just a guess. “There is no way to know the exact date.”
“I see.”
“But… it probably won’t take long.”
Chloe shrugged and continued.
“Secretary General Wesley is timid and has an impatient personality. There is absolutely no way we can allow this situation where our power is threatened for long. “Maybe within this month… this week at the earliest.”
“….”
Director Lee Ah-young glanced at her.
Even though she hated people, she couldn’t deny that her words had some basis, which seemed even more disgusting.
“Then we don’t have any more time.”
“Yes. “If I keep staying here, I might die without being able to do anything?”
“….”
I stiffened my expression at Chloe’s extreme joke.
It may be a joke now, but in this situation, it may soon become a reality.
I can’t believe I’m stuck in a situation where even if I persuade the German association president right now to prepare for an air raid, it won’t be enough.
Moreover, we don’t know how long we will be trapped, so in the worst case scenario, an air raid may begin while we are trapped.
Then Chloe’s words will no longer be a joke.
What we can do in this situation right now is….
“Can’t we just break it down and get out?”
“…?”
At that time, Chloe casually said those words.
“Isn’t it strange that someone of your size is quietly locked up in the first place? “It’s a police station and a detention center, and you can get out if you want to.”
“What is that… aren’t there rules in society?”
“Can’t you break it if necessary?”
“…This is truly the Lions Clubs International Association way of thinking.”
I have nothing to say.
“It’s a crisis situation. I’m not trying to do anything bad. “Are the rules important or is it important to prevent war?”
“Both are important. In particular, the more powerful you are, the better you have to follow the rules… Do I really need to explain this?”
This is absurd.
This isn’t a time for morality…
‘I’m sure my origins aren’t going anywhere.’
Even if the poison is gone, it seems like there is a need to reform one’s ideology.
“Anyway, there will be no action from the National Assembly or the association. “For now, let’s just wait and see what happens…”
The moment I started speaking.
Ringing -.
The phone at the police station started ringing.
Immediately after receiving the call, a police officer’s expression suddenly hardened.
“───!!”
He screamed at the other police officers.
At the same time, everyone’s faces turned pale and they suddenly became busy.
“hey! Is there a problem?”
In an unusual atmosphere.
I urgently raised my voice at them, but they didn’t even listen and everyone left the police station.
‘….’
It is certainly.
Whatever happened, it happened.
‘Could it be that they have already advanced to Berlin…?’
Unfortunately, I can’t confirm anything while I’m stuck here.
But if the air raid really started…
‘There’s nothing we can do.’
[Unique skill: Extreme herbivorous – swordsmanship]
Ugh―.
Kang!
Without a single thought, I cut the iron bars of the detention cell.
“…Where are the people who say rules are important?”
At the same time, Chloe’s sarcastic remarks were heard.
***
Berlin Reichstag.
The office of Minister of Transportation and Construction Lucas.
Before the shock of the embarrassing situation that had occurred in his office a little while ago had subsided.
Three documents were handed over to him.
‘What on earth…’
It was none other than a document containing the personal information of three people who had been arrested a little while ago: Kim Jun-woo, Lee A-young, and Chloe Ross.
What confuses Minister Lucas more than anything is that the three people were not affiliated with Hanbyul Construction….
‘All three were affiliated with WDSO…?’
The fact was that the three people were members of WDSO, which was recently recognized as an international organization.
His mind started to become confused.
Isn’t WDSO an organization established to combat the control of the International Association?
When I heard about it, they said it was an organization with more common sense and for the greater good…
Why did such people hide their identity and contact me?
In addition, he requested a meeting with the German association.
why?
What was your intention in doing this?
‘What on earth are you trying to do?…’
At that time, I had no clue about the current situation and could only sigh in frustration.
Ringing -.
The phone in the office rang.
He calmly answered the phone.
“Yes, it’s Lucas.”
“Hello, Minister. “This is Ha Mi-yeon, president of Hanbyul Construction.”
“Ah, boss!”
It was a call from the real contractor, Hanbyul Construction.
“I am sorry about this incident. “I think there was some mistake on our part.”
“No… What happened? When we investigated, they turned out to be members of WDSO, but why did they disguise themselves as members of Hanbyul Construction…” 「
…Minister. “Can you unconditionally believe what I say now?”
“Yes…?”
Secretary Lucas became nervous at the seriousness of her voice.
And that too for a moment.
“There is information that the International Association is currently conducting an air raid on Berlin.”
“Yes? “What is that…?”
“WDSO said they would meet with the Minister to stop it. No… I was trying to contact the German Association through the Minister.”
“…”
Minister Lucas was speechless at the shocking story.
As I was doing that, President Ha Mi-yeon continued speaking.
“As you know, Minister, isn’t Germany currently in a situation where it has almost blocked exchanges with other countries? They seem to have decided that no matter how much they belong to WDSO, it would be impossible to even contact them unless they are disguised.”
“That’s the situation there. Why is Boss Ha explaining that? If you think about it, Boss Ha also suffered a loss…”
It was only once that I heard her sigh.
“Because I have a little younger brother.”
“…?”
An incomprehensible answer came back.
“Anyway, I would like to ask you politely. Please listen carefully to what they say at least once. And if possible… please help me persuade the German Association.”
“….”
Minister Lucas was silent for a moment.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t let criminals go free because of a baseless story. “That is beyond my authority.”
He answered firmly.
President Ha Mi-yeon urgently appealed for something, but Minister Lucas hung up the phone without listening any further.
‘What on earth are you doing…’
Are we being funny?
No matter how much they stopped exchanges, did they try to deceive me by so blatantly entering the country under false pretenses?
At that time when I was muttering like that.
“Now Minister.”
His aide entered the office.
“The Prime Minister has now called the ministers of all ministries.”
“what…?”
Calling all ministers…?
suddenly?
“Is something happening?”
“That…”
The aide hesitated for a moment.
“There is a report that the International Association is advancing across the Strasbourg Kell border…”
“…!”
At that moment, his face became contemplative.
And then you roll your eyes for a moment.
“Everyone, contact the Berlin Central Police Station immediately and tell them to bring the three people who were arrested a moment ago to the National Assembly!”
“Oh, that’s…”
He hesitated again.
“They say those three escaped from the police station.”
“….”
Nothing was right until the end.
