Chapter 6. diverter (3)

“I must meet again Comrade Baek Seung-cheol, sooner or later.”

Quick profit—-!!!!

When Jeonghwan suddenly muttered something like that in the car on the way back from the airport after leaving Jang Seong-taek and his party, the car suddenly shook violently, drawing a rough curve.

It was because Hyerim Yoo, who was holding the steering wheel, was momentarily taken aback.

“Well, that story… doesn’t it mean that you want to go back to Pyongyang, comrade? I think that’s too dangerous. I just got out of exile, and contacting a military figure is…”

“…Of course, before that, I have to meet the person holding the collar of Comrade Baek Seung-cheol first. So, this time, I need your help.”

If you want to get a puppy for sale, you have to talk to the owner of the dog first.

Of course, this dog is a semi-excluded abandoned dog, so it will take some getting used to.

“Are you talking about my help, Comrade Jeonghwan?”

“It is not very difficult. Yu Sang, did you hear how to contact them when you return to the Republic from Frunze? It should be used when reporting information on internal trends in the republic.”

At Jeonghwan’s words, Hyerim Yu frowned as if bad memories were revived, but then reluctantly nodded her head.

“Yes, it is. Comrade Jeonghwan, maybe comrade…”

“Yeah, I plan to contact the KGB directly. Isolating Baek Seung-cheol is the priority.”

Well, if you leave it like this, it will happen automatically in a few years.

Baek Seung-cheol believes in the Soviet Union and the KGB as his strong backers, but as far as Jeong Hwan knows, the collapse of the Soviet Union is less than five years away.

Moreover, since Gorbachev took office as secretary-general two years ago, the KGB must have already begun to de-energize.

The reason Baek Seung-cheol and the Frunze factions were so arrogant was that they had their status as selected elites in North Korea, but above all, they were carrying the support of the Soviet Union, the head of communism in name and reality.

But now that support is slowly disappearing, the picture of Baek Seung-cheol’s unlucky face turning blue even though he can’t see it now was pictured in Jeong-hwan’s mind.

“Of course, there is that communication line, but… Comrade Jeong Hwan, do you not plan to contact the KGB and the National Security Council?”

“Yeah……ah, I know what you’re worried about. Of course, from the beginning, I didn’t expect to meet the KGB chairman right away. Even if it takes a while, I’ll have to convince him to listen to me. …Of course, it will never be easy.”

Jeonghwan noticed the troubled expression on Yoo Hye-rim’s face, noticed what she was worried about, and waved his hand as if it was okay, but his expression still wasn’t very bright.

In the military organization, women are a minority, whether in the South or the North.

In particular, no matter how elite foreign students were, there was no way that Hyerim Yoo, a native of North Korea and a high rank, knew of a line directly connected to the chairman of the KGB.

Jeonghwan also thought about this for a while, but in the end, he could come to a conclusion that he had to follow up with a working level person who had an acquaintance with Hyerim Yoo.

Although it will take a lot of time and you will have to fight tiringly over the phone, but that doesn’t mean Junghwan himself can fly to Russia himself.

No matter how much money the Chongryon security agent Ri Moon-cheol takes and gives Jung-hwan a chance to act freely in Japan without knowing it, there is no point in sucking his finger and watching him go to another country at all.

However, there is no way KGB chairman Viktor Chebrikov would fly all the way to Japan to have a conversation with one of the illegitimate children of the North Korean leader whom he doesn’t know.

However, even though he did not express his feelings to Yoo Hye-rim, Jung-hwan already felt skeptical about his plan.

‘Negotiation is not simply a coming and going of words, but a high-level psychological warfare and a battle of spirits. Even though I have a card on my side, can I convince the fearsome KGB chairman by talking over the phone? Is it such an important issue?’

In a summit meeting between leaders representing each country, or in negotiations between companies and companies, and between individuals and individuals, it is very important to sit face to face with each other, even without the symbolic meaning.

It reads the mind and intentions of the other party through facial expressions and eyes, and makes it easier to decide whether to add or subtract additional conditions.

That is why, even in the 21st century, where video calls can be made in real time with people on the other side of the world, it is not necessary for the heads of state to split up their busy time to visit and hold talks.

To be honest, Jung-hwan wanted to have a face-to-face meeting with Victor Chebrikov that would decide Baek Seung-cheol’s fate if possible, no, by any means possible.

It’s just that his situation in Japan, which can be said to be a place of exile, not a place of exile, does not follow.

At that time, Hyerim Yoo opened her mouth as if reading his concerns.

“Comrade Jeong Hwan, do you want to seek cooperation from the Chairman of the KGB, Comrade Chebrikov?”

“Yeah, I know it’s difficult, but it has to be done.”

“……Over the phone? Wouldn’t that be too difficult?”

“Of course, it’s harder than talking face to face. But as you know, I can’t leave Japan here…”

“Then let me go.”

…..yes?

Jeonghwan raised his eyes slightly at her unexpected remark and looked at her, but her intention was firm.

“I understand you are concerned about the surveillance of the security guards. But at that level, even the security guards wouldn’t pay much attention to it. Wouldn’t it be okay if the aide was ill and said that he took sick leave even if he didn’t see him for a few days?”

“……Are you serious, Master Yu?”

Of course, from Junghwan’s point of view, it is far better for Hyerim Yoo, the spy party, to go directly to Moscow.

Because it would be much better to represent Junghwan’s intentions if a person he knew well went in person rather than talking over the phone.

But the problem is that this trip to Russia is by no means a safe mission.

“…I may not be able to come back. You know that?”

“of course.”

“…Then why are you willing to take such a risk?”

From the KGB point of view, Hyerim Yoo is, in a word, a traitor or a renegade spy.

I posted it to thank the North Korean military and Kim Il-sung’s blood and blood, but he also separated from his superior, Baek Seung-cheol, and joined Jeong-hwan, who should be the subject of surveillance, and changed the subject of loyalty.

No matter how old it is, KGB is KGB.

Even when a traitor creeps in with blood and blood, he says, ‘Oh, are you here? Welcome back.’

As soon as he took the first step to the KGB headquarters, he was arrested immediately and he knew best that it would not be strange to go straight to the torture room, but for the aggressiveness shown by Yoo Hye-rim, Jeong-hwan was more than grateful and puzzled.

“Because I want to see a republic ruled by Comrade Jeong Hwan.”

“What does that mean?”

“It’s just like I said. In the meantime, I ate the rust of the Republic and went to study in the Kremlin with the grace of the leader, but there were many times when I realized that something was wrong with Joseon. Of course, that night, I grew up in a family with good background, so I went to an elite university without knowing the hardships…

“…So do you think I am more suitable as a leader than President Kim Il-sung or General Kim Jong-il?”

“………Among the comrades I got to know while attending university, there was a comrade whose Abai was a military officer in the United Front Department. The school I went to was a place where only high-ranking officials and military children were admitted, so I remember my father as a comrade who had a strong sense of pride in Abai, although there were no children who were not party officials.”

“……?”

It was a random story of the past, but Junghwan did not stop her in the middle and listened to her silently.

It was because she thought that she must have had her own reasons for making the decision to risk her life.

“But from one day, the comrade’s face grew darker, and later, he disappeared from school altogether. I didn’t know it when I was a kid, but after becoming a military officer, I heard that his comrade’s Abai was sent to the Duke of Aung San in Burma, and then was abandoned by the party. The comrade, who lost Abai, was moved to the countryside as if he was being driven out.”

“…………”

“In the party, the republic has prepared a means of escape after the operation, and even if you die, you will take care of your family, so you do not have to worry about your back. Said it wasn’t there in the first place. To the party, his comrade’s abbie was just a throwaway piece.”

Jeonghwan, who heard another hidden secret that he knew in his head, but could not feel, from an unexpected place, looked directly into Yoo Hyerim’s eyes for the first time.

In her eyes, there was a glimmer of anger that was rarely seen.

“I don’t even know what kind of leader Comrade Jeonghwan will become in the future. But, at least, I think it’s much better than the people who say they’re the current leader.”

“……I can’t say for sure, so, is that why you are risking your only life for that reason?”

“Yes, from what I have learned while serving Comrade Jeong Hwan, at least Comrade Jeong Hwan is not a person who at least throws away his loyal subordinates. Isn’t that still the case?”

“…………”

“And, to give you one more reason…”

“……?”

Jeonghwan looked at her to see if there was another reason, but unexpectedly, Yoo Hyerim smiled brightly and gave Junghwan a small face.

“Honestly, comrade Rossi is still a long way off. If you had a phone conversation with the KGB chairman with that skill, you would almost always be ridiculed, let alone negotiating. So I’ll have to go and get the chairman comrade to do some work on the ground.”

“…………”

Jeonghwan turned his head to another place without realizing it, his face blushing.

It was like the first time I felt such a shameful feeling after returning.

“…Mi, I’m sorry. So far, I’ve only studied from books, but I don’t really have much to write about.”

“They told me to pull out the horns in a short time, so the earlier the departure, the better. As soon as we get back to Chongryon, we will find out about the flight.”

“Yoo Hye-rim? Were there any comrades like that among our ‘students’ dispatched to North Korea?”

At the unfamiliar name, Chebrikov tilted his head and asked the secretary.

No matter how much he was the head of the KGB, there was no way he could have known about Hyerim Yoo, a woman who was only at the top of the more than two hundred Frunze international students.

– Yes, in the last report, it was clearly stated that he was working at the escort command in Pyongyang.

“Hmm…but you’re saying that all of a sudden you got a call from Japan?”

– In the meantime, the Far East Asian side had been suspicious of treason or stealth, but the fact that the other side will contact you first… It may be a counter-operation from North Korea. Shall we send an arrest squad?”

“No, wait a minute, let’s hear the business.”

Due to his experience and years of experience, Chebrikov felt that there was something about this woman named Yoo Hye-rim’s visit.

Of course, it could be a trap.

There was a possibility that the Frunze factions had already been discovered or arrested or killed by the North Korean authorities, and only her, who turned away, was sent as a double spy.

But, very fortunately for Hyerim Yu, Chevrikov had just finished talking to Seungcheol Baek, who had just been alive and well.

If the North Korean side knew the purpose of the Frunze clan, there would be no way Baek Seung-cheol would be alive until now.

‘And if you had sent a double spy in the first place, you would have sent a friend with a higher status than the top so that you could access advanced information.’

“Did you say you wanted to meet me? Where are you now?”

– That’s… It’s on the first floor in front of our headquarters door. The phone was just sent by the receptionist at the secretariat.

“……………………”

I don’t know who she is, but she’s a woman with a very big wall.

No, maybe this KGB is already starting to look easy…

Chebrikov responded to the secretary, muttering to himself, as if so absurd.

“I’ll send you up to the chairman’s office. If you don’t know, put a guard on it.”

After a while, Chebrikov slowly swung up and down the Asian woman who appeared with two brown bear-like guards.

When she sat down, wearing a Japanese brand women’s suit, which is quite beautiful even by Russian standards, making it difficult to guess the rank of a high rank soldier, Chevrikov took out a ceremonial greeting.

“Did I say comrade Hyerim Yoo? You said you studied in Frunze, so I’m sure you can speak Russian. So, why did you ask for such a sudden meeting? No, before that, your superior, Comrade Baek Seung-cheol, did you know you were here? I haven’t heard anything from him… Do I have anything to say to avoid the eyes of the North Korean authorities?”

“That is true, Comrade Chairman. Comrade Baek Seung-cheol is no longer my boss.”

“………..what?”

What are you talking about again, maybe asylum request?

At the moment Chebrikov’s head was about to go back and forth, Hyerim Yoo made a direct request to him.

“I am not here today to meet the Chairman of the KGB, but to meet Comrade Chebrikov personally. If it’s okay with you, could you hand over the bodyguards? I have a story to tell to my comrade chairperson .”
