Chapter 400 – Alchemist Hyunjoo Lee (4)
“Then that wife would want to get away. From Choi Mok-dong.”
-She said she would do anything if she could.
“Well…”
I thought I had heard a good story.
I thought that there was a reason why Cha Hyeon-joo told me this story.
Because she knows her abilities too.
The victorious faction was wielding considerable power in Busan, and it seemed that it was threatening the guilds in Seoul.
If you destroy a guild like this, it will be obvious somehow.
However, it would be different if it collapsed from the inside.
What if it was the betrayal of a wife who thought she had completely enslaved her?
I thought that a person with high self-esteem like Choi Mok-dong would break down more easily.
“Will you allow me to meet with the underboss?”
– Yeah! I will contact you right away and send you a message!
“Yes.”
I just shared the conversation with Kaori and Hyunjoo Lee.
“Do you really need to do that? I just went…”
I took Kaori’s hand.
“I know it’s hard to bear with your friends. But at times like this, you have to be cool. It’s easy to just go in and destroy an organization, but if there’s a better way to do it, we’ll do it. If possible, I’ll do it without any regrets.”
“…”
Kaori looked at me and stayed there for a while.
Then, he let out a long sigh.
“All right. I believe in Sunggi-nim.”
“In that case, it is more correct to call him Mr. Than Mr.”
Suddenly Lee Hyun-joo intervened.
Actually, I also wanted to correct it right away, but it sounded unique in its own way, so I left it alone.
“Oh yeah?”
Unfortunately, Kaori’s lack of Korean language patch was corrected with this.
“Seonggi-nim, no, Seonggi-san, why didn’t you tell me? Shame on you!”
Kaori covered her face with both hands, but I wondered if this was something she should be so ashamed of.
Rather, he said to Lee Hyun-joo.
“There is a safe way to get out of here. But I don’t know if I can do that.”
“Yeah? How?”
I hesitated to speak.
Of course, there was no law that required sex to be treated.
However, it was the first time I met Lee Hyeon-joo, and she could not force her to treat her by showing her naked body and having skinship with her according to common sense.
I looked at Kaori.
She knew what I was trying to do.
After all, she herself had removed the bomb planted in her head through it.
“Hyeonju.”
Kaori held Lee Hyun-joo’s hand.
“Do what Seonggi-san tells you to do. This person will never harm you.”
Kaori’s words were unfamiliar.
And there were some parts that I had to listen to with a little oversight.
Because she is now exposed to the ability of ‘Like for no reason’.
It is in a state of speaking only positively about me unconditionally.
“What is it?”
Lee Hyun-joo made a puzzled expression.
She couldn’t help but nod her head at what her friend, her own lifesaver and soul mate, said to her.
“If you say so…”
“Well.”
I looked around and asked.
“Where do you sleep?”
#
Hyunjoo Lee was lying on his bed.
In this shabby factory building, there was no space that could be called a bedroom.
Beds on the second floor.
The life of Lee Hyun-joo, who became a drug addict, seemed devastating.
Garbage was scattered all over the place, and notes were cluttered with notes.
It seemed that all she did was take drugs and do what Mok-dong Choi ordered, and in the meantime come up with an idea and write something down.
Should I say I’m glad that at least I’m sober now?
If my prediction is correct, the drug Lee Hyun-joo was taking is the same drug Park Hye-na was supplied through Baek Sung-hoon, and this thoroughly wrecked her Hunter.
It wasn’t something she could do without overcoming it with her mental strength.
Choi Mok-dong probably put it in Lee Hyeon-joo’s food without her knowledge.
If Lee Hyeon-joo had known that this would happen, it would have been better for Lee Hyeon-joo to listen to Choi Mok-dong right away.
Still, Choi Mok-dong would have made Lee Hyeon-joo a slave to her, so I don’t know if there would have been a big difference in the end result.
I doubted whether the medicine Lee Hyeon-joo obtained from Choi Mok-dong’s men was the right one.
Will high-end drugs be common enough for thugs to get them?
Perhaps she found something suitable and tricked Lee Hyeon-joo, I thought.
If so, the problem is more serious.
If bad things meet and mix in the body, mana could be more seriously twisted.
“What… Are you trying to do?”
Lee Hyeon-joo was quietly lying on the bed as I told her to.
Kaori was downstairs.
Her attitude was that she wouldn’t care what she did to her friend.
Rather, she thought, she would rather have it.
“I don’t think there are surveillance devices out there.”
At my words, Hyunjoo Lee frowned.
“Yeah? What do you mean… Ah!”
It seemed that he had realized it now.
There must have been any number of opportunities to plant such a thing in Lee Hyun-joo.
Because she was on her drug.
“Getting rid of it is the first thing you need to do to get out of here.”
“How did you know?”
“Because it is better to plant directly inside the body than outside. It’s not certain yet. I intend to look into it with my own eyes and see.”
“Checking with your own eyes… My body?”
Hyunjoo Lee “Hot!” She groaned and took her body in her arms.
I don’t know what she was thinking, but I didn’t intend to undress her right away.
Of course, in some cases it could have been that kind of development.
“Stay still for a moment.”
I opened my eyesight to her and peered into Lee Hyun-joo’s body.
At least now, her mana wasn’t so badly tangled.
That was also why she was keeping her sober.
“Did you take anything other than drugs?”
“Yeah… I couldn’t be high on drugs all day, so I made a deterrent and ate it. Eating this will keep you sober for about three hours a day. Although her immunity is getting stronger, the time is getting shorter and shorter.”
Would you say you are an alchemist?
The drugs used by the South American soul mage gang were vicious.
Interpreting and neutralizing it is impossible in the first place.
I wondered if the creators didn’t know how to decipher it either.
The drug’s goal was to poison her hunter and drain its mana.
As time goes by, the effect is maximized and Hunter becomes a body that cannot live without drugs.
Even if she became like a zombie, she would be able to demonstrate her hunter abilities, so she might have made it with that in mind.
A perfect slave who follows orders like a machine.
Anyway, thanks to the suppressor Lee Hyeon-joo made and took herself, it became easier for me to use my hands.
For now, the order was to find the tracking device inside her body.
Believing that it must be there, I thoroughly inspected Lee Hyun-joo from her head to her toes.
“What are you doing right now…”
Lee Hyun-joo, who received my attention, was ashamed.
I found her expression a bit odd.
There is nothing like displeasure at all, it just seems to be embarrassing.
She, of course, was the one who came with Kaori, and she said that she could trust her unconditionally, so she couldn’t be wary.
But her expression looks like her crush is staring at her…
‘Alas.’
Always forget
That I have the ability to have a crush without reason.
This was not something I could consciously turn on and off.
I don’t know when it started to exert influence on Lee Hyun-joo, but she seemed to be exposed to it now.
Perhaps being alone and peering into her body like this had a decisive effect.
‘I can’t do it.’
I didn’t think it was that bad when judged soberly that things had turned out this way.
Lee Hyun-joo is Kaori’s friend, and as long as I have a relationship with Kaori, I had no choice but to protect Lee Hyun-joo.
Besides, her ability…
I thought it would give wings to my abilities as well.
No matter what you think, if she’s already been exposed to ‘a crush for no reason’, there’s no way to turn it back.
It was then that what I was looking for stood out.
It was under Lee Hyun-joo’s left breast.
“Ah…”
I was happy to look at it and smiled at it, and Lee Hyun-joo crouched down on her even more.
“Well, if you look at it that way…”
“I found it.”
“Yeah?”
“It was also in her body.”
I pointed to the lower part of Lee Hyun-joo’s chest.
“Yeah? My heart?”
It was like being a fake masseuse for the purpose of sexual assault.
But there is no difference
Because it’s really planted in her heart and you can’t lie.
“I think it was planted without Mr. Hyun-joo knowing. Because they have it, wherever Hyeon-joo goes, they find it.”
“Yeah…”
Hyunjoo Lee bit his lip.
It was a mixed expression of the embarrassing situation of being swayed by Choi Mok-dong and the shame he now feels from me.
“Then how do you do this…”
I was diagnosed with how to get the tracking device out.
“Would you like to take off your clothes?”
