Chapter 567 – Episode 61. Graduation Trip-Seoul.
My itinerary in Korea was 3 nights and 4 days out of a 5 nights and 6 days graduation trip. The last day of the 3 nights and 4 days was to wake up and go to New Nanjing City in the morning, so it felt like 3 nights and 3 days.
After getting off the plane, we took a limousine bus and headed to our accommodation for three days. Because we had so much luggage, we decided to unpack it at the hotel first and have lunch at the hotel restaurant.
“It’s a three-person room, so three people should always go together. In the double room, four people stay in the double room. But since it’s a foreign country, you won’t be able to communicate, and you might get lost, so don’t forget to contact me if anything happens.”
I stood on a moving bus and looked at the document that divided the rooms into groups. Still, as it was the last graduation trip as a class, the students stayed in triple or double rooms rather than private rooms. Since there were 13 people in our class, the rooms were divided into three triple rooms and two double rooms. For reference, we decided to stay in two double rooms with four people each. Of course, there will be bodyguards watching near the students, so no major problems will arise.
For reference, the teachers were also in triple or double rooms, but they could upgrade to a single room by paying personal money, so of course I paid an additional fee and changed to a single room. I think I have to go out every night to see Han Yu-kyung or Ha Joo-yoon, but I can’t use a 2-3 person room where other teachers can see my movements. Besides, it’s not like I’m sharing a room with beauties like Jurie Kijimoto or Airen Shimokawabe, and it’s suffocating to be alone with a black-faced male teacher who I’m not even close with.
“We go to the room, then go to the hotel restaurant, have lunch, and gather again at the bus stop by 2:30.”
“I understand, Ryutachi!”
“The teacher also eats lunch with us! Where do you eat it?”
“I’m going to eat Chinese food.”
After getting off the bus, I watched the students go to their rooms, then took my luggage and went to my room. Because I was quite hungry, I left my suitcase in the hotel room and went straight down to the hotel restaurant.
I chose the hotel Chinese restaurant because I wanted to eat Korean-style Chinese food, which I hadn’t had in a long time. Because there were restaurants with different themes on each floor, there were not many students at St. Francis Girls’ Academy. As I was waiting after ordering Jjamppong, Jjajang, and Sweet and Sour Pork, students from our special class came down.
Since all the students in my class come to the Chinese restaurant, aren’t they following me too much even if I eat here?
“Teacher, you are here.”
“Ryutachi~☆”
“Recommend something with a lot of protein, teacher~!”
I asked as I looked at the students sitting naturally around me, noisily.
“Are you all going to eat here?”
“Because you can eat at other restaurants in Japan as well. There aren’t many places that serve Korean-style Chinese food.”
Akina Konoe answers my question. Well, although Korean food is quite popular in Japan, Korean-style Chinese food can only be found in Koreatown, so it will be quite refreshing for kids.
“And Ryu Tachi knows a lot about food because he’s tried it.”
In order to maintain the regenerative properties and muscles that consume a lot of the body’s energy, I eat about 3 servings at each meal, but I can’t eat enough… I almost got upset for a moment, but decided to think positively. I guess that means I trust my taste buds.
“It’s too harsh to say that you’re a glutton.”
“Pahaha! “If Ryu Tachi isn’t a glutton, there aren’t many people in the world who would be called a glutton, right?”
Everyone laughs at Seiza and Shii’s words. It was funny to see everyone laughing, but I had nothing to say in response, so I just changed the topic by recommending food.
“If you like soup and spicy food, eat Jjamppong. If not, eat Jjajang. For sides, I’ll just order two pieces each of sweet and sour pork and kkanpunggi.”
I have recommended it as a popular pick. Of course, since it was a Chinese restaurant in a luxury hotel, there were things like bird’s nest and shark fin, but what I wanted to eat was Korean-style Chinese food. Since the students seemed to want to eat something similar to what I eat, I recommended Jjajang Jjamppong Easy Sundae.
According to my opinion, each student chose between Jjajang and Jjamppong. As expected, Japanese people are not good at eating spicy food, so the proportion of Jjajang was high, but Seizawa Shiina, Kujo Kina, and Otagi Yuka, who have challenging personalities, ordered Jjambbong.
Since I ordered first, they brought my food first, and three bowls came in front of me, and they all laughed at me, probably remembering the gluttonous fuss just now. Are you telling me I’m not a glutton when you order something like that? It felt the same.
“Tsk… !”
As I was slurping down the Jjambbong, the girls’ orders soon arrived, and everyone was busy trying the new food. When I tried Jjamppong, it wasn’t that spicy, so the students who ordered Jjamppong seemed to be eating it well.
“Ryuta, ah… !”
As expected, Alrik was the only one who took care of me. Alik picked up the kimchi that I didn’t order and brought it to my mouth. When I took Alik’s kimchi and ate it like a baby bird, Alik looked proud and started eating Jjajang again. It was quite cute to see him eating with Jjajang on his mouth. Since it disturbs me while I’m eating, I have to clean it after I finish eating.
“Have you decided what to wear for your next schedule?”
“I’m going to wear a Korean school uniform!”
“I brought my clothes in advance.”
The next plan was to go to a Korean amusement park called Lute World. Since visiting wearing Korean high school girls’ school uniforms, which were popular in the past, has recently become popular again with the 12th Korean Wave craze, the students in our class decided to wear Korean school uniforms as well. It is said that he did it.
After eating, all students returned to their dormitories. Since it was a fairly leisurely schedule, there was still quite a bit of time left. Students will use that time to wear the school uniforms they have prepared in advance.
Of course, there was a Korean school uniform rental store near Lute World, but the famous Japanese school did not let its girls wear the rental school uniforms worn by others. They had prepared new school uniforms for everyone. That’s why the students had two large suitcases. He said that in addition to school uniforms, there were a lot of clothes, emergency medicine, and other things. I don’t know if it was extreme or thorough preparation, but it seemed like a lot of preparation had been done since it was being sent to another country.
“There’s still about an hour left… “I need to get some sleep.”
Like the students who went up to the dormitory, I entered my dormitory. Since I probably won’t be able to sleep at night because of Han Yu-kyung or Ha Joo-yoon while I’m in Seoul, I was thinking of going to sleep in advance.

“Damn it!”
Bang!
A large man with his head slicked back broke the desk and shouted loudly. The man with all-white hair had a grim look on his face and was wearing a suit. His hands, which were not covered by his clothes, were glowing metallically, so he appeared to be wearing a cyber implant.
The man’s name was Jeon Yong-cheol, and he was the boss of a violent organization named Yongcheolpa, named after himself. Jeon Yong-cheol was a former member of the Special Forces and started an organization in Gangnam with his juniors who were also former Special Forces members. In addition to his many combat experiences, he modified his entire body with cyber implants, so much so that it was rumored that there was no one he could compete with in the back alleys.
The expansion of the Yongcheol faction’s power went smoothly. When the global giant organization called Heukwoldang in Korea suddenly disappeared, creating a vacuum, the Yongcheol faction, which was controlling Gangnam, was able to use its power to spread its influence throughout Seoul and achieve significant growth.
However, when the Yongcheol faction ate much of Seoul and attempted to completely dominate Seoul, a new force entered Korea.
It seemed to be a foreign organization, but it was disguised as a construction company. It was called Yonghwa Construction, and there was a mix of Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans, and as they were a new force advancing into Seoul, there was constant friction with the Yongcheol faction.
If the friction was just simple violence, it wouldn’t have been a problem, but at some point, deaths began to occur. Of course, not many people were officially dead. The members of the Yongcheol faction were disappearing. Jeon Yong-cheol thought all these disappearances were murders.
The reason he was so angry as he broke the desk was because it was reported that one of the mid-level executives of the Yongcheol faction had just disappeared.
Hehe… Do you think I’m just a gangster? Do you think this Yong-cheol Jeong, who went through a hellish war, will die?”
Jeon Yong-cheol was muttering to himself with the whites of his eyes turning red. Because he was Yong-cheol Jeon, a member of the Marine Corps’ Special Reconnaissance Unit and a proud veteran of World War III, he could not tolerate being attacked by another organization, even if his organization was foreign.
“Even though we kept getting beat up… “We won’t sit still either.”
Jeon Yong-cheol continued to mutter. Just like Yong Cheol’s mumbling words, Yong Cheol’s faction did not sit still and suffer. He was looking for a force that would support Yonghwa Construction while putting up with what was happening to the members of the organization.
As Jeon Yong-cheol expected, Yonghwa Construction had a backing boat. Vanguard, the best security company in Korea, which had a bit of friction with the Yongcheol faction just a few months ago, was the backbone of Yonghwa Construction.
No matter how much friction there had been with Vanguard before, it was unforgivable to mess with them in this way.
“When they cut off our limbs, we hit the Vanguard’s head…”
Grinding his teeth, Jeon Yong-cheol opened his mouth. Jeon Yong-cheol looked at the documents spread out on the broken desk.
The opened document contained the name of Vanguard President Han Yu-kyung, as well as information such as a photo and place of residence.
Jeon Yong-cheol took out his phone from his pocket and called Gil Jun-seok, the vice president of the Yongcheol faction.
-Yes, Chairman.
“Everyone gets ready. I’m playing Vanguard tonight. Yonghwa construction is next.”
Jeon Yong-cheol opened his mouth in a voice full of life.
