Chapter 132 – Wind Cloud
The hotel staff opened the car door. A middle-aged man with a red face got into the car. The man who took a deep breath and looked inside the hotel opened his mouth.
“Gwacheon, no. To Naegok-dong.”
The car moved smoothly. The scenery of the night street wet with rain was quite dreamy. Waves of people walking around with round umbrellas and store window lights streaming down the asphalt. Looking at the sparkling neon sign, the man took out a cigarette from a luxurious leather case.
Widely. The man lit a cigarette and narrowed his eyes.
“Whoa…”
Soon there was only whitish smoke in the car.
‘Damn them.’
Dang Jae-seop, a man who enjoyed unbridled power, a fourth-term member of the National Assembly, was busy with his eyes closed due to a recent incident.
‘Because of how the non-hungakju handles things.’
Non-circular prisms that have been treated as missing. The information about the facilities of Dangmyeon Pharmaceutical, which he managed, has already spread in all directions. As if someone had an intention, the NIS, the Moorim Maeng, etc. Stole the information from the facility. Sprinkled everywhere.
Thanks to this, the position of Dang Jae-seop, who moved the military at the time, was quite difficult. Military generals who had not even lifted their eyes in front of Dang Jae-seop before stood upright and asked Dang Jae-seop to solve the problem.
Politically, attacks began from all sides. That is the nature of politics in the first place. If you poke even a little gap, they will bite you.
‘I don’t know what the family is doing.’
The military can do its own thing. Because in this war situation, the most demanding place for our medicine was the military. However, other groups were not.
NIS Moorim Inspection Department.
Murim Alliance.
The latter was particularly problematic. I believe that the family will take care of it, but strangely, Dang Jae-seop’s anxiety did not go away.
Taktak. Shaking off the cigarette ash, Dang Jae-seop looked out the window. Then he frowned.
“I don’t think it’s the way you usually go?”
“I’m on my way back because the car is going to get stuck, Senator. To get to Naegok-dong, you have to pass through Gangnam.”
The driving aide explained politely.
“Tsk, I’ll go the way I came.”
Dang Jae-seop spat out in an annoyed voice, opened the window and threw a cigarette. It wasn’t that Dang Jae-seop didn’t understand.
The population of Seoul is 30 million. Thirty million people live in this small city. Of course, even if traffic was distributed by all means, there were physical limitations.
Dang Jae-seop’s mind was dominated by a feeling of discomfort in many ways. It is safe to say that it was the intuition of an old politician. Dang Jae-seop tried to deny it and attributed the cause to the other side.
‘I must have drank too much.’
Of course, I couldn’t get rid of alcohol because I was trying to deal with things like hungry ghosts. Even though he was from the Dang family, Dang Jae-seop did not practice martial arts except for the basic mental method because he was absorbed in politics.
Thanks to this, he had the appearance of a middle-aged man with a bulging stomach. He didn’t even have the ability to drive out drunkenness with internal energy.
Dang Jae-seop closed his eyes feeling deep fatigue. His body was as heavy as a wet cotton blanket. He needed a moment to close his eyes. Dang Jae-seop’s consciousness gradually drifted away from reality.
Like that.
Dang Jae-seop, a fourth-term member of the National Assembly, who was heading to Naegok-dong, was found with a cold body a few days later.
The cause of death was “Poisonous snake death.”
***
Murimmaeng Tournament.
Once a year. It was a huge event that gathered from all over the world. Bondi should be held at the end of the year, but this time it was held a little early and in a hurry.
Since the heads of the munpa, easily surpassing the thousands, had to gather in one place, the place where the grand match was held was reminiscent of an opera house.
A tournament held a little earlier.
For the pre-meeting, the masters of the great clan came to the meeting hall one by one and began to sit down. Unlike the past, which was close to a harmonious meeting place, there was only suffocating silence in the meeting hall.
Bubbly.
A neat middle-aged man stepped onto the podium. It was Yunhyeon, the commander of the Moorim League. He took one look at the crowd and began to speak in a calm tone.
“First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to those who attended this sudden meeting. Everyone knows why we are here today.”
After Yunhyeon stopped talking for a moment, the ugly things that Tang Mun had done began to be reflected on the huge screen behind him.
“Huh… Did the party really do such a thing?”
“This is a fact other than confirmed by the NIS. The truth cannot be doubted.”
“Then the islands of the South Sea…”
“I’d say it’s highly likely that they’re related.”
Everyone was whispering and chatting with people they knew.
“An inhumane experiment committed by Dangmoon Pharmaceutical. The truth is unquestionably clear. At least thousands of children have been sacrificed in this facility alone.”
“Huh…”
“How is that…”
Sighs flowed from everywhere. Although they seek profit, there was no one who was not a political faction warrior among the people gathered here.
“It’s not just our company. Circumstances in which Dang Jae-seop, a 4th-term member of the National Assembly, made illegal solicitations to the military were also revealed.”
“You mean the one who died a few days ago?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“There is also the possibility that the party assassinated him to destroy the evidence…”
“Ugh! How can you disrespect our party so much! Do we have a reason to kill Rep. Dang Jae-seop? He was just what we needed! Also, I think you know that only Congressman Jae-seop Dang is dead, but recently people with the last name Dang…”
In the middle, the sound of the comic book danju suddenly rose and protested fiercely.
“Calm down, comic book lord.”
Unlike the last time, this time, inexcusable evidence was leaked. The details of the experiments carried out by Dangmoon Pharmaceuticals and even documents with the official seal of the head of the research institute belonging to Dangmoon Pharmaceuticals. If it was impossible to deny, the only thing left was a frontal breakthrough. The cartoonist sighed and said.
“Are you serious now? We acknowledge that the facility in charge of Biwon Gakju had many problems. However, shouldn’t you guys be doing this to us? Our party members have dedicated themselves to world peace while getting their hands dirty. I don’t think you’re intimidating us in this way!”
“Gibberish! Is that the sound that will come out of the mouth of the representative of the Daemun faction belonging to the Baekdo sect?!”
A rebuttal came from the side. One by one, sympathizers shouting “Yes, yes, yes” Increased. Dangsaeum’s eyebrows rose wildly. He glared at the man who shouted at him because he was talking nonsense.
“Did you say Cheolryeongmun? I remember that name. As of today, Cheolryeongmun will not be supplied with anything produced by Tangmoon Pharmaceutical.”
“That… Such an outrage!”
“Why, don’t you like that again? Listen carefully, everyone. Do you know where the medicine that saved the people of the Munpa came from? Nothing can ever be achieved without sacrifice! But dare! Just scare us with this!”
The party sound burst into a roar and shouted. As much as the momentum, it was not pushed anywhere.
“I don’t think you have any intention of denying it.”
“Even the commander-in-chief shouldn’t do this to me. Have you forgotten how much benefit we gave to the Yun family?”
“It was a fair trade.”
“What is a fair deal!”
“Okay. Gave preference? You don’t have to shout like that. We have already decided to suspend business with Dangmoon Pharmaceuticals at the Yoon family head meeting.”
“What…?”
“And this place is not here to talk privately. Have a seat. A cartoonist.”
Yoonhyun stared at the sound of the party. It was a very cold look.
With a frown on his face, he sat down.
Thud-
A wave of chauvinism spread in all directions.
Seomun Jeongcheon, the Murim lord who was sitting in the center, rose from his seat.
“I think this explanation would have been enough. Then I will raise the first agenda.”
Seomun Jeongcheon spoke in a low voice.
“The first item is the impeachment bill against the monopoly of comics.”
In an instant, the son-in-law became quiet. Everyone rolled their eyes at the unconventional declaration of the Murim Lord. From the first, it was an agenda to expel the main axis of Maeng. A look of astonishment appeared on the face of the cartoonist. Ignoring the reaction of those around him, Seomun Jeongcheon coldly spat out.
“By the way, the second agenda is a complete investigation of our facilities in the name of the Murim League. If the authorities do not cooperate, we will conduct a compulsory investigation even by force.”
***
After digging into our facility.
I handed over the hacked data to team leader Park Soo-ho as well as to the Moorim League through Jecheon University. Of course, there was an uproar, and I heard that an out of season tournament was held.
‘They’re going to get hit and run by now.’
I had already figured out the planes flocking in from all over the world. I don’t know how the results will come out, but I won’t be able to go over as softly as before.
Tang Mun, backed by the power of the Baekdo faction, rapidly grew in size.
Conversely, being a political faction was a fetter. Widely. I closed my laptop and spoke to the blonde beauty in front of her. It was time to confirm the questions I had heard before.
“Is it true that it is difficult for the current religion to solve curse magic?”
Chun Ha-yeon silently nodded.
“Originally, in the new religion, the places in charge of the magic of visiting the left path, such as witchcraft… Were the halls of illusions and demons. Do you know where they are now?”
“…Blood bridge.”
“There is a secret fee, but there is no one to deal with it, so it is true that it is difficult to solve. Why do you ask?”
“I think I need to get rid of the curse. You did.”
“It’s similar to martial arts, but it’s a different realm. I think it would be better not to touch it easily. It might be better to find a potion or a Buddhist mage.”
“Will it really stay? As with volcanoes, it seems that the Qingseongdo network has been completely cut off.”
“…”
Chun Ha-yeon could not easily give an answer. In the end, it was said that in order to break Beatrice’s curse, he had no choice but to borrow the power of the Heavenly Demon Artisan.
“By the way, do you intend to erase the party contract altogether?”
Tian Ha Yan tilted his head slightly and said. A war without gunshots was in progress between Shingyo and the Tang Dynasty. Many of the companies that were originally affiliated with Dangmoon Pharmaceuticals turned around and stood on the side of the Protestant Church. This phenomenon was more prominent in other countries than in Korea.
Fortunately, it was possible because Master agreed, but it was my intention anyway.
“I think it will be difficult right now even to erase it. I definitely need to let go of my strength this time. That way, it will be easier to organize the party text later.”
“So is he.”
Whieing- A vibration sounded during the conversation.
[Are you okay this weekend?]
Short message. It was a message from Beatrice.
