Chapter 227 – #228 Boss!
#228 Boss!
“Ha…”
Having packed his things, Intercessor sighed and left the house.
He had the name Lakar Green, but maybe it was because he was called Joongbo by the boss Steel Armor, so now he was more familiar with the name Joongbo than Lakar.
‘It’s a month at the most.’
These were the words of the doctor who examined his mother. The doctor who saved people gave him despair, not hope.
‘Save! If you don’t want to die, you son of a bitch!’
‘I am a doctor, not a god. Sorry.’
Outside, everyone treats him cautiously. Because he was a subordinate of Steel Armor, an S-class villain who ruled over 10 districts.
However, in front of the doctor, even the title of middle boss of the notorious Skull Head did not work.
‘Mother…’
The doctor said he couldn’t last more than a month, but the intercessor couldn’t let his mother go in vain like this.
He was the only child he had, but he suffered so much that he never refused to raise him properly. She was a mother who endured even when she was sick and bought herself at least one more food with the money she had to go to the hospital.
However, despite the mother’s devoted efforts, Jungbo had no choice but to fall into a bad path.
Due to her difficult family situation, she could not even dream of going to university. Still, he said that he would be filial to his mother.
If she told her mother about this, she could never say that she was the kind of person who would sell her organs to make money.
Eventually, Jungbo gave up his studies to earn money and started working at a construction site. He, of course, was kicked out after less than three hours. To the idiot who only studied, the construction site was a rough place that he could not endure.
Hit and run, he eventually became a low-level member of the Villain’s organization, the Scorpion King. He, of course, lied to his mother that he got a job at a small company. Her mother would be sad if he told her that he joined the villainous organization.
However, it was very difficult for a kid who couldn’t survive even at a construction site to survive in a villainous organization that was tougher than that, no, life came and went.
Still, he thought of his mother and endured with evil and evil.
“Eh, what is this…”
When he received his first paycheck, Intercessor despaired. One hundred dollars, that was the money he risked his life for a month.
Protest was unimaginable. Because the member who went to protest saw his body cut in half by the Scorpion King.
Intercession fell into deep despair.
But if there is despair, is there hope?
The Scorpion King died shortly after, and a new villain took over his organization.
His villain name is Steel Armor, currently the most famous villain in Dark City and an S-class villain with superhuman strength.
The mediator saw this as an opportunity.
It was difficult to live comfortably with his mother after living as a low-level organization member for the rest of his life. He attempted to gamble with his life.
“This is the room the boss, or heroin, used to use.”
Joong-bo moved first when the other gang members were hesitant, guided the steel armor to the room where the Scorpion King was using, and stamped on him.
He only gave guidance, but the effect was great.
The new boss, Steel Armor, has entrusted himself with the heavy duty of being the mid-boss. Also, he was able to protect his head while everyone else shaved their heads and tattooed skulls. I was very fortunate.
After that, he did many things that Steel Armor told him to do, and he was almost killed a few times. But, thinking of his mother, he persevered.
He was indifferent to the organization to the point of wondering why Steel Armor absorbed the organization.
Naturally, it was Joongbo’s job to manage the money the gang members earned from selling drugs.
“…”
Joong-bo swallowed his saliva at the large amount of money he had never seen before. He could buy pretty clothes, delicious food, and medicine for his mother with little money.
“… No. It shouldn’t be like this.”
Intercession overcame the temptation of money.
Even though she is the middle boss of the villain organization Skull Head, her mother didn’t raise her that way.
Even when other members of the organization secretly stole the money from drug sales, Intercession did not take a penny.
“I have to save money and move in. I will live with my mother in a better house than now.”
Dream.
Joongbo’s dream was only that.
He worked so much that he lacked even 10 bodies, but he was able to dream as he saw the money slowly piling up in his bank account.
But he thinks it’s a dream because he can’t achieve it.
*****
“…”
Joongbo stopped in front of the hospital where her mother was hospitalized.
“Rather…”
He was also the one who managed Steel Armor’s account at the Hero Bank. He, of course, also knows the account password.
If you take the enormous wealth hidden in Steel Armor’s account and go to a healing psychic, you might be able to save your mother!
“…”
Joongbo turned around.
If she could save her mother, even if she was killed by Steel Armor, she would die laughing.
“…”
Joongbo stopped walking.
But then what about the mother? That’s how she saved her mother, and if she died, who would take care of her mother?
“Ha…”
After standing on the street for a long time and thinking about it, Jungbo eventually turned around again.
Even if she steals Steel Armor’s money to save her mother, her mother will commit suicide, blaming herself for doing something her son shouldn’t because of her.
All he could do was stay by his side until his mother finally left.
*****
“Mom, I’m here… Huh? Uh, Mom? Mom!”
The mediator who entered the hospital room was very embarrassed.
Because he didn’t see his mother, who was there until he went home to get a change of clothes. He also had no burdens of his own, nor of his mother’s.
‘Stand, no way…!’
A terrible thought flashed through the intercessor’s head.
While he was away, did she say her mother died?
“Uh, Mom! Mom! Mommy!”
Intercessor screamed and went looking for his mother.
“Hey! You can’t scream loudly in the hospital!”
A woman stopped such intercession. She had the name [Bae Soo-jung] Written on her name tag.
“Mom, no mother! Where is my mother? I can’t believe she’s not dead?”
“Mother? What’s your name?”
“It’s Lawn Green.”
“Green? Ah…!”
Nurse Bae Soo-jeong tilted her head at the word green and nodded as if she remembered.
“Mr. Lawn Green moved to the VIP room 10 minutes ago.”
“… Huh? The VIP room?”
“Yes. Follow me. I will guide you.”
“Uh…”
How did this happen? A VIP hospital room?
*****
Joong-bo, who arrived at the VIP ward on the 11th floor following nurse Bae Soo-jeong, arrived in front of the hospital room where her mother was said to be.
-Ah well then Mr. Green just raised his hand and interrupted the chairman… Hey, there was a podium, right?
-Is it so? Oh god My child is not like that.
-Your mother doesn’t know. Mr. Green is usually docile, but when he needs to step up, he’s just… You know? Is it the same style as late night?
-Yes? Is it late night?
-Ah… There is such a thing. Good thing good thing
“…?”
Jungbo tilted his head at the voice he heard from inside the hospital room.
One was her mother’s voice. Then whose voice is the other voice?
“Go in.”
“Yes? Ah, yes… Thank you…”
Nurse Bae Soo-jung smiled and disappeared to do her job. Intercessor cautiously entered the hospital room.
“Besides, there are several female employees at my company who like Mr. Green… Huh? Ah! Mr. Green is here?”
“…?”
Beside her mother was a man she had never seen before. He came over with a welcome face as he met his eyes with his.
“Who…”
“Shut up. Now my name is Sting, so if you don’t want to be followed, act wisely.”
“… Boss?”
It was definitely a man he had never seen before, but through his voice, he could tell who he was.
Steel armor.
It was his only boss.
Steel Armor hugged Jungbo and patted him on the back.
“No, my friend! Why didn’t you tell me that your mother was sick?”
“Yes?”
“What is this hospital and our company… Anyway, didn’t you know what agreement they signed? If you are a family member of a company employee, you can be admitted to the VIP room at this hospital.”
“Yes?”
“This is really upsetting. Do I have to hear about your mother through someone else? I still cared for you like her sister, but if this happened, you should tell your brother right away!”
“Yes?”
For reference, Steel Armor is 30 years old and Jungbo is 35 years old.
Steel Armor took Intercession and stood before his mother.
“Mother. Look at this. Intercession… No, Mr. Green is like this? He’s so reticent that people don’t talk about him for too long.”
“It’s because he’s shy. Mr. Sting understands.”
“Ayu understands, but I’m sorry. Oh, and how long are you going to say honorifics to me? If our green is a mother, then you’re also a mother to me, and today we have a son~ Please think about it and talk to me comfortably.”
“Hohoho. Is that okay?”
“Sure! Then, shall I call you first? Mother~”
“Hohoho. Yes, yes. I’ll speak comfortably from now on.”
“Hey! Where is the mother who treats her son with respect? Please speak comfortably.”
“Yes, Sting.”
“Kiya~ It feels like we’ve become a real family. We’ll see you often from now on, mother~?”
“What do you mean by frequent visits? Thank you for coming to visit me today. And please take care of our car a lot from now on.”
“No, I do not want!”
“Yes?”
When Steel Armor refused, Jungbo’s mother was taken aback.
“You said honorifics to me just now. So I hate it!”
“Ah… Hohoho. Let me take care of our car.”
“Then yes!
“Thanks to you, I can leave in peace.”
“Mom…”
At her mother’s words, the intercessor was moved to tears. The steel armor next to her also trembled.
“Ehehe! My mother told me not to say such things. We should live a long time to see Greenie marry a true lady, give birth to a beautiful son and daughter, and live happily ever after.”
“… Yes. I will. No I will. I will definitely see our Kar live happily ever after.”
“That’s right! That’s right, mother! The power of positivity! With the power of positivity, you can easily overcome cancer.”
“Ho-ho-ho.”
Steel Armor’s excessive action made her mother smile.
‘Boss…’
Seeing this, Joong-bo cried again.
It was her first time to see her human form in Steel Armor, so she was also in tears as the famous Steel Armor said this for her own mother.
After an hour had passed, Steel Armor rose from her seat.
“Ego! It’s already this time. Mom, I’ll go first. I have work to do at work.”
“Oh, look at my mind. I was holding onto a busy person. Let’s go. Thank you for coming today.”
“Hey, you’re talking honorifics again. The next time you see mother, you should treat her like a son. Did you know?”
“Hoho. I will. Karya see you off.”
“Ah, yes. Let’s go Mr. Sty-Ting.”
“What is Mr. Sting to my brother. Anyway, let’s go. Mother, I’ll come back again!”
“Ho-ho-ho.”
Steel Armor bowed to Jungbo’s mother and came out with Jungbo.
“That… Boss.”
“Joongbo you bastard.”
Upon exiting the hospital, Steel Armor folded her arms and returned to her normal self, as if she had been friendly before. In response, the intercessor unconsciously lowered her head and took a posture at attention.
“Sorry…”
“Why didn’t you tell me? And why didn’t you hit the pintang?”
“… Yes?”
At the unexpected words, Jungbo raised her head and looked at the steel armor.
At first, Steel Armor thought that Joongbo had spent all his money on gambling or stocks.
But as he talked to his mother, he realized that wasn’t the case.
Joongbo didn’t spend the money in the wrong place, he didn’t cheat at all. He didn’t even take a lot of salary, so of course I thought he was cheating, but that wasn’t the case.
“You bastard, Intercessor… How honest is this bastard who is an executive of a villainous organization?”
“Yes?”
“Do you know why I don’t pay attention to your salary? I don’t care about making it in moderation. But why didn’t you cheat?”
“Uh…”
The mediator was perplexed.
Wouldn’t it be good if you didn’t hit the scam? But why am I being scolded for not hitting the scam?
“Anyway, I paid all the overdue hospital bills, so don’t worry. I paid for the VIP room in advance, so don’t worry.”
“Bo, boss…!”
“And… In three days I’ll make your mother feel better, so don’t worry too much and take good care of her. Okay?”
“Is-is that true? Me, my mother… Can I live?”
At the words of the steel armor that followed, Jungbo opened his eyes. She is the mother all the doctors gave up too. She says she can be saved?
“Don’t you believe me? I’m Steel Armor, Steel Armor. Do you think there’s anything I can’t do in the Dark City?”
“Oh no! I believe! I believe in the boss!”
“Of course you have to believe it. Who am I! Anyway, when my mother gets better, I’ll go back to work. Tsuba, without you, the organization is a mess.”
“I will! If only I can save my mother… Hehe…!”
“… Men don’t cry so easily, Tsar. Then I’ll go.”
Said the man who burst into tears after watching Rachel’s play.
The steel armor that hit him on the shoulder turned her body. After taking a few steps, he stopped.
“Hey! But is our company on unpaid leave?”
“…”
“Damn it. I’m really going.”
“Persimmon…”
Intercession turned toward Steel Armor’s receding back, bending his back ninety degrees as he did to his mother.
“Thank you Boss!”
Steel Armor waved his hand without looking back and went out into the street.
