chapter 95
Staggering (4)
tuk-
Seol Joo-hee, who threw away the phone call to Hong Yu-ra, hurriedly picked up the remote control and turned the TV up.
He stared at the news quietly, holding his breath.
[ The estimated amount entangled between the Cheonhwa Guild and the parent company is about 80 billion won. When other incidental expenses are included, the amount exceeds 80 billion won. ]
In the news, the Cheonhwa Guild and the Cheonhwa Group were directly mentioned and their aggressive moves continued.
[According to the testimony of Mr. A, who exposed internal corruption, the Cheonhwa Guild turned the money it received for laundry into the guild operating expenses, but in reality… ]
As if all the facts had been confirmed, he freely presented the circumstances of the corruption… .
Seol Joo-hee’s expression, watching it, began to harden more and more.
[ The operating cost attached to the regular report is approximately KRW 13 billion. In fact, the difference is almost 10 times… . ]
This is because whenever the content of the Heavenly Flower Guild came out, the mosaicized Queens image was continuously reflected.
“… … .”
Of course, the sign of the Cheonhwa Guild is no different from Queens, so it is natural in a way.
The square stone is right, because Queens was the most comfortable as it was the most famous.
Fortunately, Seol Joo-hee, who has suffered countless envy and jealousy so far, did not suffer much damage from being attacked from the outside.
He rose to a position that no one could reach, and naturally increased his stamina.
But… .
“f*ck… .”
Because she’s a human too, she couldn’t help but feel bad.
woo woo-woong– woo woo-woong–
Then the phone started ringing again.
Seol Joo-hee checked her cell phone, remembering that she had received a call from Hong Yu-ra.
[ Former Director ]
This time, it was a call from Guk-il, the leader of the Cheonhwa Guild.
If you look at the call from your personal cell phone that you haven’t even been in contact with, it’s probably because of what’s being reported in the news… .
“… ttt.”
Seol Joo-hee, who had lost the desire to answer the phone because she thought she would be insulted, moved her finger and hung up the phone.
“ha… .”
Seol Joo-hee let out a nervous sigh.
I was still in a very disturbed state, but when such an unfortunate incident happened because of a catastrophe, I felt like I had a heavy headache and some kind of anger gushing out.
‘… I need to take some medicine… .’
Seol Joo-hee, realizing that her mental state was starting to get weird again, got up immediately and walked to the kitchen where the medicine was placed.
And before doing something strange and aggravating the situation, I thought I’d rather pickle it with medicine.
‘The morning pills… .’
The tranquilizer that Seol Joo-hee was prescribed by a psychiatrist boasts of great effects.
Even when I tried to think about something, it felt as if there was a fog in my head, and I was so dazed that I could not think of anything else.
To be honest, I don’t feel very good, but Seol Joo-hee thought it was much better than having her mind come and go as she ripped her hair out like before.
crumble- crumble-
After moving to the kitchen, she thought of taking medicine first and calling Hong Yu-ra, so she opened the envelope with the word ‘morning medicine’ and put the cup down on the water purifier.
ding-
Then I pressed the water button and stared blankly at the transparent water filling the inside of the cup… .
beep- beep- beep- beep-
Suddenly, the sound of a door lock resounds throughout the house.
In the end, Hong Yu-ra came to the house.
“Seol Joo-hee!”
Surprised that she did not answer her phone, Hong Yu-ra hurriedly called Seol Joo-hee from the front door and entered the house.
“… I’m here.”
Fortunately, Seol Joo-hee came out of the kitchen and greeted her in a very good condition.
“you… !”
While Hong Yu-ra was relieved to see her like that, she was slightly angry.
“Why aren’t you answering the phone… ! Do you know how worried I was?”
“… sorry.”
Seol Joo-hee thought that maybe Hong Yu-ra came to see her in a hurry because of the news about the Cheonhwa Guild.
The fact that it was reported on the morning news means that the article has already started to appear on the Internet, so there was a high possibility that she had seen it too.
“Is it because of the news?”
By the way.
“What news?”
As if Hong Yu-ra did not know anything,
Seol Joo-hee unknowingly narrowed her brow and handed her a soft question.
“news… . Haven’t you seen it?”
OK… .
Hong Yu-ra asked carefully with a puzzled expression as if she didn’t really know.
“What news are you talking about… ?”
Slightly surprised by her reaction, Seol Joo-hee gibberishly told the story that corruption regarding the guild and the group was revealed.
“… It’s on the news now. Isn’t that why?”
“What?”
Hong Yu-ra, who found out about the self-inflicted death, wrinkled her expression as if she had just realized something, and grabbed her forehead with her hand.
It was a reaction as if something was constricting.
“Those humans… .”
“What are you doing this for?”
Seol Joo-hee gently crossed her arms and asked why she was looking for her in a hurry.
“… that is… .”
Hong Yu-ra slowly opened her mouth with a curiously cautious look.
“… Because of Arin.”
Im Arin.
The moment her name came out, Seol Joo-hee’s face hardened.
“… Why that year?”
After Lim A-rin and Do Ji-hyeok declared their marriage and fought, Seol Joo-hee began to react harshly by calling Lim A-rin ‘that bitch’.
Of course, whenever that happens, Yura Hong would warn me not to speak too harshly… .
This time, even Hong Yu could not defend Lim Ah-rin.
Considering only the circumstances that have been revealed, it was not wasted even if more severe anchovy was used.
“… Don’t be surprised, listen. Never get excited Understand?”
“… … ?”
Seol Joo-hee was even more puzzled by her strange reaction,
Hong Yu-ra took out the tablet from the bag she was carrying, sat down Joo-hee Seol at the table and began to explain calmly.
What did Lim Arin do without their knowledge?
What kind of movements were there in the Cheonhwa group?
From the steps the Cheonhwa Guild has shown so far,
What kind of composition was drawn as a result.
and… .
Who is the only one who will benefit.
“Hey, what is this… .”
Seol Joo-hee looked at the evidence that appeared one by one before her eyes and put on an expression of disbelief.
The feeling of embarrassment outweighs anger.
It was so shocking that it was hard to believe that Arin Lim, who had been like an inseparable friend, did it.
“You have to think calmly.”
Hong Yu-ra looked at Seol Joo-hee’s reaction and spoke out bitterly.
“All the evidence is in our hands.”
She seemed to think she could turn the situation around.
“You can’t just stand still like this… !”
“… ah.”
At that time, Seol Joo-hee muttered a little, wondering if something came to mind.
“Leg… .”
“uh?”
“… Nope.”
And then, as if it was nothing, he pretended to be nothing, then flashed his eyes and spoke softly.
“therefore. What are you going to do?”
Perhaps because of her awakening, a gun she had not seen for a long time was in her eyes.
“First… .”
Hong Yu-ra was relieved inwardly at Seol Joo-hee’s calm reaction and slowly explained the plan.
To face Arin Lim… .
Finally, he began to proceed with the plan to subdue the filthy traitor.
*
Immediately after attacking an important base in the Black Society and capturing action leader Pyo-Sung Park.
The Black Society reported me to the police and started acting strangely, not like a criminal organization.
Seeing it like that, I thought there must have been some other plan… .
“Yes? Did he run away?”
[ uh… . We were also a little embarrassed, we ran away so quickly that we couldn’t even track them down… . ]
Kim Dong-heon, the leader of the Black Society, ran away all night.
Even abroad.
‘No, obviously it wasn’t like that in the original story… .’
In the original novel, Kim Dong-heon showed a majestic appearance and instilled a lot of anticipation in the readers.
Of course, the existence of the black society itself was sublimated into a McGuffin as the writer made rapid progress, but… .
Seol Joo-hee, who is slowly breaking down the organization, was pleasantly surprised and showed a pretty cool appearance.
I mean, he wasn’t such a cool character who suddenly jumped out like this.
‘Are you approaching too quickly? .’
Secretly expecting a match with Kim Dong-heon, I spoke to Park Hae-rin over the phone with a bit of disappointment.
“Then what do we do now? Will the operation continue?”
By the way.
[Ummm… . Well, we’re in the middle of a meeting… . I think I’ll have to look at the dynamics for a while. ]
The news was different from what I expected.
“Operations… . Are you stopping?”
[ for now… . I think so… . ]
It was supposed to be a halt in operation.
‘In the end, that’s it… .’
Actually, it’s pretty good for me.
Since the fundamental goal was to block variables, it can be seen that the black society has reached its goal to some extent.
However… .
‘I’m sorry.’
To be honest, it’s a pity that I can’t act as a ‘questionable masked robber’.
Defeat the enemy using the stolen ability.
I would be lying if I said it wasn’t a pity, honestly, because it was as if I had accomplished what I had imagined and dreamed of.
“Well, there is nothing I can do. … So, can I wait for a while?”
[ … Yep. If anything is decided, I’ll let you know right away. ]
Park Hae-rin has responded with a slightly regretful tone,
I exchanged greetings saying that I had worked hard and wishing to have a meal someday, and then naturally hung up.
“… A good thing would be good.”
After finishing the phone call with Hae-rin Park.
I got down from the roof and went straight to the training ground where the team members would gather.
“Oh, it’s the producer!”
“… It’s late.”
“Producer! We’re all ready… !”
Kim Na-rae and Jin Seo-won greet you as soon as they see their faces. and visit Hanna.
I raised the corners of my lips involuntarily at the sight of the three people who made their stomachs full just by looking at them, and I was able to realize again what my main job was.
‘okay… , this is my job.’
No matter how much my legs are healed… .
It doesn’t change that I’m a producer.
“Sorry, the call was a bit long… . Are you all ready?”
“”yes!””
I burst into laughter at the team members responding vigorously, and I slowly crossed my arms and looked around the members.
Today’s training will be the final subjugation training that will mark the end of the season.
“then… . Shall we start slowly?”
It was the last training to end the team’s successful first season in a splendid fashion.
