Chapter 83 – Corporations (3)
All safety rules are written in blood.
In the case of the Hunters, that was not an exaggeration at all.
No matter how hard the media packs it, most hunters are manual workers who use their abilities.
And among them, there are not a few people who fight monsters.
Therefore, the association was very obsessed with safety rules.
However, the Hunter Association is, after all, a civil servant organization.
From its inception until now, there has never been a moment when there was not enough manpower.
In particular, there was even less manpower to devote to raiding low-level dungeons.
In the case of the Dark Horse Guild, they dug that loophole very well.
“Looking at it, he violated the safety rules very strategically. There won’t be a case as vicious as this even if you search the entire association.”
“The dark horse guild is just as good as others…”
“The list is a bit long, so listen carefully and tell me if there are any mistakes. First of all, you have to leave at least a week between dungeon raids, but the dark horse guild hasn’t kept it even once in the past six months. Ha Min-seong’s dungeon raid was 1 That was at least 5 ‘official only’ cases per month.”
The boss swallows his saliva with a hard face at my choice of words.
Yes. It’s been a long time since the unofficial part has already been caught.
“This is the end of the recommendation from the association, but you weren’t satisfied there.
Originally, there were about 20 hunters belonging to the Dark Horse Guild.
And dungeon raids, no matter how low the grade, are supposed to be conducted with a team of 6 or more.
Even if you are a guild member, you can’t go together all the time, and local business trips are even more reluctant for employees…
Ha Min-seong, who died, proceeded with the attack along with other subcontractors.
The Dark Horse Guild used this structure very intelligently.
“Originally, it was a business trip that another employee was supposed to go out, but Ha Min-seong went out every time.”
The officials who were monitoring the scene were naturally taken aback, but…
The Dark Horse Guild put up an excuse that it was because of a cold, or because it was his family’s congratulations or condolences, and put forward his surname his as a soldering iron.
Originally, if the plan went wrong in this way, the dungeon raid had to be canceled, but the administration of local officials did not work that way.
Everyone has come a long way to clear the dungeon, so how can you say ‘just go back today’?
If the dungeon clearing was delayed like that, it was obvious that nearby residents would file complaints.
So just do it
Even the Black Horse Guild showed meticulousness in deliberately adjusting the business trip area, fearing that officials would notice if they kept sending the same employee to the same province.
First, it was sent to Gyeongsang-do, then Jeolla-do, and then to the metropolitan city.
I paused for a moment and remembered the scene I had seen in the confinement room earlier.
Most of the employees of the Dark Horse Guild were very distressed by Ker’s barking, but…
Some of them, there were temples lying dead without complaint.
It was the male hunters who suffered from constant local business trips.
Usually, when one person dies from overwork, their colleagues are already in danger.
I ordered a close examination of them so that I could gather additional evidence.
“The male hunters were made to skip regular check-ups because they were on business trips to the provinces, but the female hunters never went out of Gyeonggi-do at all.
“It’s too much, what’s too much! We men are definitely a privileged class!”
“The privileged class?”
He raised his voice because he wanted it to be this time when I was frozen at the sound I really couldn’t have imagined.
They seem to know that if they insisted properly here, they can even reverse the situation.
“Korean women have always suffered from discrimination. I’m a true man who understands their pain, so I’m just a little bit more comfortable on business trips!”
“What discrimination?”
“Women are often criticized for going to college, or they are sexually assaulted as if they are breathing. It is also difficult to advance into society because of the glass ceiling.”
Since my last encounter with Blue Lightning, I hadn’t been so shocked.
Is this human really living in the 90’s?
I stuttered in my daze.
“Wait. The Dark Horse Guild’s executives are all men, too? And in this day and age, why are you listening to nonsense about going to college? You’ve never even been to the threshold of a university.”
“It’s just because our company is so small! There are only 3 executives including me, so I can’t help it…”
“It’s very fucking. What is molestation? Is it your experience?”
Only then did I properly understand the person who was the president of the Dark Horse Guild.
He was like that in his own time, so the future generations would certainly have known that.
He is the type who sins against the women at the bar and repents to the female employees at the company.
Of course, the only thing that is good is words, and there is no substance at all.
The guy, who was speechless at my question for a moment, brought out what he thought was a deadly logic in his own way.
“In the first place, all of our employees agreed!”
“Oh, yeah? Did you get a contract or something? That doesn’t mean anything.”
“What about the contract! The fact that they haven’t left the company so far is no different from an agreement!”
“…”
Dealing with this guy makes me skeptical about my job.
The Hunter criminals I’ve dealt with so far have committed crimes very deliberately, or even prepared at least an alibi…
It seems that this guy was not even aware that his actions were a crime.
But. Originally, it is true that most criminals are at this level.
Rather, you can say that the guys I’ve dealt with so far are in the top 5%.
No matter what anyone says, hunters with A rank or higher are elite in their own way.
Unfortunately, the Hunters of the Dark Horse Guild were not in a situation where they could leave the company just because they wanted to.
Currently, the size of the hunter industry is rapidly shrinking.
The guild they were in is also disappearing, so if you leave now, you don’t know when you will be able to get a job again.
Most hunters are in a position to earn even a penny more when they can.
Currently, all male hunters remaining in the Dark Horse Guild are married.
In order to fulfill his duty as the head of the family, he could not stop and endured hard.
In effect, the family is held hostage!
Those who didn’t quit long ago.
‘It’s a waste of time any more. I’ll see you again in court anyway, so I’ll leave it at this.’
I checked the messages sent by my teammates and notified him.
“First of all, I will prosecute you for negligent manslaughter, intentional and habitual false reporting, omission of regular physical examination, intimidation within the company, and sexual assault. It is still being added in real time, so I think you can wait patiently .”
“What… What? Blackmail? Rape?”
“Employees have already tested. There is no one who has no history of sex crimes among people who say things like you. Hey, do you already have the same criminal record?”
“Fuck the bullshit! You… You threatened them…”
I ignored his pleas and left the interrogation room.
In another room, the interrogation of ordinary employees was going on.
As I was watching it in front of the magic mirror, Seo Ji-yu cautiously approached me.
“Chief. What are you going to do with this case?”
“As you may have heard earlier, corporations cannot be held responsible for murder. Corporations do not have the capacity to commit the crime.”
However, it is possible to hold individual employees accountable.
Originally, I didn’t do this because I didn’t have enough investigative personnel, but…
This time, Blanche was incredibly helpful.
The guy now knows how to do it even if it’s rough, so the convenience has been greatly improved.
It is also his skill to investigate the black boxes of the employees’ cars earlier.
‘I, who was the most opposed to the introduction of artificial intelligence, is using this most usefully… I’ll hear what Matthew said later.’
“How the hell did this happen?”
When Seo Ji-yu muttered with a sigh, I couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
“In a way, this is natural. The Republic of Korea has never hired soldiers at a reasonable price since its founding.”
“Yes?”
South Korea, the safest country in the world!
The reality of that brilliant title is a monumental tower built from the corpses of hunters.
As always, South Korea tolerated their sacrifice for the sake of the country.
In fact, other countries would not have been very different.
“In fact, the state is much worse than corporations. As organizations of this kind grow in weight, they sacrifice people without shame or hesitation. Of course, they don’t take responsibility properly. “
“That, like that…”
When the rich and powerful go to war, innocent people die instead of them.
It is a very old custom that has supported the history of mankind.
I belatedly warned Seo Ji-yu, who had been confiding in me for the first time in a while.
“Ah, you can’t listen too directly. My thoughts are a bit extreme.”
“Did you know?”
“This is what happens to Ji-U when she goes through something injustice like me.”
The Big Dipper incident changed my soul itself.
I can’t possibly go back to that.
Seo Ji-yu knew that well and smiled sadly.
“I’m sorry, but… I’m glad I was able to meet the team leader thanks to you.”
“It’s too much, really.”
“Ah, then cancel…”
“No. Don’t cancel. I’ve already heard of it, but that’s even worse.”
“Okay, boss.”
I scolded her and moved again to completely dismantle her dark horse guild her.
Since there are many, many guilds to be sorted out anyway, it would be sufficient to say that one garbage guild was cleaned up first.
