## Chapter 69 – 07. Mess Around and Find Out
+++
With the stocks disposed of and a run-in with a distant relative, I figured I should get myself some simple portable weapons and stopped by a nearby gun store.
Since I was planning to visit Militaries in a month to get Seol’s custom gear, I decided to get my main equipment then. For now, I was just looking for some basic self-defense weapons.
Just in case.
But,
Bang!
– 1 point.
I shot ten rounds at the range attached to the store and only hit the target once. And that one hit was only worth 1 point, meaning I barely grazed the edge of the target.
“….”
Embarrassed, I nonchalantly lowered the gun.
“Wow.”
Sua exclaimed.
“Chairman, I’ve never seen a 1 point before.”
“…It’s my first time, so isn’t it normal?”
“Still, that gun has a scope, and getting 9 misses and 1 point is a bit… especially on a 10-meter target….”
“….”
Speechless, I put the gun back on the shelf.
‘This is all (Former) Go Mu-yeol’s fault.’
No, it’s not just blaming others, it’s the truth.
My hands shake whenever I hold a gun!
How am I supposed to aim and hit anything like this?
“What do you mean? It’s normal to miss when you first start. But if you’re having trouble, how about this model?”
The clerk gave me a business smile and recommended another gun. The one I just shot had a scope, but this one was a plain pistol with nothing attached.
Wouldn’t I hit even less with this?
“This model has an automatic aiming module. It works with a trajectory device in the bullet to guide the bullet to some extent.”
“So, it hits just by shooting?”
“Ah… no. Not exactly, but if you aim in the general direction and fire, it’s designed to fly towards the target as much as possible.”
“Sounds expensive.”
“Yes… a bit. But it’s still worth the price.”
I took the gun from the clerk and loaded it.
I aimed at the target and fired.
Bang!
– 9 points.
“Oh?”
I shot a few more times.
I was consistently hitting between 7 and 9 points, and never missed the target entirely.
“Not bad?”
Since I was only going to use it for a while, this seemed good enough.
“Um… Chairman, that model…”
Sua whispered to me.
“Has a pretty high misfire rate, so it’s not used much. If there are two or more people in front of you, you don’t know who it will hit.”
“….”
Seriously?
Then it’s useless unless I’m in a war.
What if I accidentally hit Sua or someone?
“It’s a bit better if you link it with an eye implant… but you can’t get an eye implant, can you, Young Master?”
“Can’t? Why do you think that?”
“Huh?”
Sua looked a little confused as she replied.
“Don’t… chaebols hate implants? You don’t have one either… I don’t think the Chairman would allow it….”
“Is that… so?”
I didn’t get one because of my possession memories….
But now that I think about it, Sua might be right, considering Go Mu-yeol’s body has nothing done to it.
But I was planning to get Seol trained and get her an implant.
“Anyway, that gun is hard to use even with an implant, and almost impossible without one.”
“What about you? You can use it, right? Should I buy it for you?”
“I don’t need it. I’m always on target.”
“Really?”
“I’ve won a few shooting competitions in my district, you know. I was an excellent police officer.”
“Oh, really?”
Sua confidently picked up a gun and fired.
She shot much faster than me, almost in bursts, and 9 out of 10 shots hit the 10-point mark, with the last one barely missing at 9 points. It took her less than 5 seconds to hit 10 targets.
“Ooh.”
“Heh.”
Sua tilted the gun and blew on it.
I didn’t know she was this good.
“What about Seol?”
“….”
Baek Seol silently picked up a gun.
And she achieved even faster and higher scores than Sua.
“Wow. As expected of a knight.”
“….”
Should I just buy them weapons?
That seems like the right thing to do.
In the end, I came to buy my own weapon but ended up equipping Sua and Seol.
Of course, I bought one too. The automatic aiming model from earlier.
Even though there’s a chance of misfires, I can use it when there are only enemies in front of me.
Or I can just aim as carefully as possible….
“I’ll get my real weapon custom-made at Militaries. The most expensive one.”
I only intend to use this weapon temporarily anyway.
This is good enough for now.
When I go to Militaries, I plan to get a full-body armor suit worth hundreds of millions.
It’s actually an end-game item in the game, but in reality, you can get it with money, power, and connections. And I have all of that.
If I have some extra money, I’ll get one for Sua too.
I used to think Sua was a bit unsuitable as a combat tool based on her stats, but seeing how well she shoots, it might not be a bad idea.
“…Master.”
As we got into the AV, Sua took a breath and spoke to me.
She looked like something big had happened.
“What is it?”
“The Incheon Chief Prosecutor… he’s dead.”
“Chief Prosecutor? The one with the butter face?”
“Yes! A strange man appeared on his way to work and shot him with a Terminator!”
I turned on Mytube.
All the algorithms were talking about it.
There were even some leaked videos, showing a motorcycle passing by the car of a man on his way to work and shooting him with a weapon presumed to be a Terminator.
The surrounding cars were all destroyed, and the estimated death toll was 12.
The reason it’s an estimate is because people are torn to pieces when hit by a Terminator….
“….”
Something feels off.
Why the Chief Prosecutor?
And with a Terminator?
I called Lee Na-eun.
She answered after about four rings.
– Yes~ Master. What’s the matter?
“You sound calm. I thought it would be chaos.”
– Ah, yes. A first-class prosecutor can maintain composure even in chaos. It’s not like your dick is in my pussy.
“…Is there pressure for a special investigation?”
– There’s nothing concrete yet. It’s too chaotic. But it will come soon, right? The weapon that killed the Chief Prosecutor was a Terminator.
The Terminator is a prosecutor-only weapon that is only permitted under limited circumstances when a special investigation is established.
It requires biometric authentication and can only be used by prosecutors registered on the Prosecutor’s Office server.
But the culprit killed the Chief Prosecutor with a Terminator.
Naturally, attention will be focused on the currently established special investigation.
‘Is the special investigation going to be blocked again?’
The guy in the helmet probably didn’t plan and execute everything alone.
Killing the Chief Prosecutor with a Terminator is not something an individual can do.
As powerful as the Terminator is, its usage data is always recorded on the Prosecutor’s Office server.
Moreover, he must have used an implant to escape the scene, which is also recorded on the server.
In other words,
Killing the Chief Prosecutor with a Terminator is like confessing to the crime.
So why use the Terminator instead of many other weapons?
‘There’s a message and a purpose. And there must be someone backing him.’
Someone who can hack the Prosecutor’s Office server.
Just like I had Seo Eun-mi conceal and deceive the investigator’s murder.
‘Someone who can manipulate the Prosecutor’s Office server and kill the Chief Prosecutor without hesitation. And someone who has a reason to do so.’
There’s only one.
Jeon Seong-hyun’s family.
“I understand how they feel. But did they have to do it this way? It’s a shame.”
– Huh?
“Never mind. Just talking to myself.”
– Our special investigation team is conducting an internal investigation. We’re investigating the alibis of prosecutors who can use the Terminator and requesting logs from the Prosecutor’s Office information department.
“Okay. Keep up the good work, and report anything unusual.”
– Yes~.
I ended the call.
“I tried to end things in a gentlemanly way. But they’re pushing it further.”
Jeon Seong-hyun tried to touch my fucktoy.
I wanted to kill his entire line, but I held back.
What crime did his parents and siblings commit? How unfair would it be for them to die out of the blue?
But unfortunately, they started it.
So, I have no choice but to resume my actions.
Are they just killing the Chief Prosecutor?
Maybe.
But I’m the one who actually killed his son, so what guarantee do I have that the Terminator’s gun, which killed the Chief Prosecutor who was just a witness, won’t be pointed at me?
There’s no such guarantee.
Once a crazy person has a weapon, they can aim it at me at any time.
‘One thing I’m wondering is… why didn’t they target me first….’
If it were me, I would have targeted me first.
I’m the strongest target, so why did they waste time killing the Chief Prosecutor first, giving me time to prepare?
Then Moon Go-minji’s words suddenly came to mind.
– The parents might. But his dependents aren’t just the one you beat to death and his mother, right? There are a lot of people involved, so will they all dream of revenge with one mind?
“Ah. Could it be.”
– There are a lot of cowards. They’re even interfering with each other because they’re afraid of getting hurt.
“To warn me on purpose??”
