Chapter 854 – Finding Traces
Ito Furua closed his eyes and was thinking about many things after listening to today’s story.
‘Is it really true?’
The reason he closed his eyes and thought was not to think about information.
For a person who considers survival as the number one priority, it is natural that what is important is whether it is dangerous or not.
That’s why he closed his eyes and wondered if what Mai Nishina had said was really a trap.
“Hey, how long do you plan on keeping your eyes closed thinking about you?”
“I would like you to wait a moment.”
“Huh… Is it because I’m older that my brain doesn’t work as fast?”
“I’m old enough for that, aren’t I?”
That thoughtless Tenju Yo Rocha, with a brain full of muscles, didn’t seem to think about such things at all, but it was very important to him.
Because he deals with information, he knows how powerful the elites that Mai Nishina is with are.
And we all already knew that the number was greater than was known.
However, did he single-handedly subdue those with that level of force without killing them all?
He knows from numerous experiences that if he believes this right away, it is no different from asking someone to kill him outright in a dark place.
‘Why should I go just because I think it’s true?’
If it’s really true, do you really need to go and check for yourself?
If it were a trap, it would be the same as losing one’s life at once, so I had no choice but to be cautious.
Even so, in a situation where his arms and legs were cut off by Otoji, his second-in-command, and he was left with the only real informant, this was like a gamble to him.
If someone goes into the most familiar safe house to check for traces, wouldn’t that be suicidal?
No one knows whether the other party will betray even if it is an alliance.
‘Nishina Mai in particular has tremendous ambition.’
If it had been Tenju Yorosha who said this, he would have only thought a little and moved unconditionally.
Because he was in the shadows, he thought he was a lonely wolf and hated dirty things the most.
It used to be that way, but perhaps because of Otoji’s political power, I came to hate it even more.
But Nishina Mai is different.
Any high-ranking official could tell that she was extremely greedy for power.
In fact, rumors spread that she had pushed out her original duchess’ leader through her own tricks.
Wouldn’t a woman who is that obsessed with power really betray?
‘It seems even more so since Otoji was targeting Nishina Mai…’
Moreover, Nishina Mai was the woman Otoji was aiming for.
It was a very famous story that as she gradually gained recognition from her captain and ascended, he proposed to her and was rejected.
Even though she refused back then, it made perfect sense that she was trying to betray this side since there is no answer now.
‘There is too little information.’
I want to think a little more and make it safer, but I don’t have enough information.
If I had had just two days, I would have been able to organize the information in a little more detail.
“Hey! Inspiration!!”
“Ah… I understand.”
As he tried to think more alone, Yorosha’s anger that he could not hold back any longer made him decide to move.
Normally he would never have gambled on something like this. I would have said I would take a little more time and check.
There was only one reason he didn’t do it.
‘I think I should go.’
Because he was telling me that his desire for survival, which he had cultivated for a long time, must go.
Of course, he wasn’t one to trust his intuition. Rather, he was a person who collected information more clearly and approached it statistically, and was definitely not a person who acted based on intuition.
But now he decided to trust his intuition. By using this, he survived quite a few times.
“It looks like everyone is gathered, so I’ll leave for the safe house.”
“Aren’t you traveling by car?”
“If you want to get caught, you can do that.”
“Hmm… Well, it’s Otto, that insidious guy must have prepared something.”
“You know we have to just confirm and then break up right away, right? Because it’s almost time.”
“I know. “There is still time, but as time goes by, the servants planted over there will report back.”
They all already knew that Otoji had planted spies in their forces.
Isn’t it natural to cut off all the arms and legs and persuade a few people to become spies?
In particular, he was a poisonous snake-like person who could be said to be at the peak of insidiousness, so when they regrouped their forces, they first found the spy.
‘I deliberately saved some people.’
While hunting down spies, they never killed all of them.
If you kill them all, wouldn’t the opponent be much more alert and try to control this side somehow?
In that case, it was much better to keep only the few who could be controlled and use them.
Although the amount of information was limited because there were fewer spies, it was a better method because it also gave the impression that they would never be found.
While thinking about the spy, the three were able to arrive at the safe house.
————————-
“Huh… Did you create a place like this?”
“It’s a place where a lot of effort went into it.”
The two who entered the safe house that Mai Nishina had built were quite surprised.
Anyway, I thought it was just an ordinary safe house, but this is no different from a mansion.
It’s not like we’re in the Middle Ages, but there was a high wall and a watchtower on one side where you could see enemies coming from afar.
“I need a lot of things to do the work, so I need to prepare this much.”
“But this… Must have cost quite a bit of money.”
“Fortunately, it was created before Otoji came to power, so I was able to avoid attention.”
“Have you built all the other safe houses to this extent?”
“Oh my, it’s not attractive if you try to tell too many secrets.”
“Hehe… What kind of charm does a middle-aged person like me have…”
As soon as he entered the safe house, Ito Furua took great interest in this place.
‘If it’s this good… Maybe I should have made a bolder move.’
Who would have known that a safe house that was supposed to be secret could be made so grand?
And because it was hidden deep in the mountains, it was absolutely impossible to find it unless you really knew and looked for it.
Because the wall was built quite high and filled with vines and moss, one could have thought it was just a mountain.
It was something that Ito Furua, whose highest priority was survival, could not help but envy.
So, I brought up the idea that if there was a safe house similar to this, I would like to build one myself, but I was cut off like a knife.
“Please come this way.”
Mai Nishina, who was looking around the safe house, went straight to her mansion so as not to show anyone important places.
This is where the biggest and most important secrets of the safe house she built are hidden.
A place where most of the weaknesses of the people within the Yakuza and the secrets of politicians on the outside are organized.
It was a valuable place, almost worth the price of one’s life, as one worked hard to obtain information.
If there had been a little time left, the entire arrangement could have been revealed, but fortunately there was not much time until the spy’s report, so everyone in the party briskly moved to the mansion.
“Here.”
When we arrived at her mansion, Mai Nishina stopped and introduced herself.
Looking at it, Ito Furua wondered how it was built and exactly where this place was located.
Tenju Yorosha, who was most confident in her fighting skills and possessed the same amount of force, set his sights on her broken door.
“Hmm… I kicked it and broke it.”
“Can you figure that out?”
“Of course, there are still footprints at the end of the door. But kicking this thick door and forcing it open would be impossible.”
“It opened just once, there was a loud noise and the door fell down.”
“Once? Is it true that you say once and not multiple times!?”
“What’s the point of lying about something like this? There’s more evidence inside, so just look at that and tell me.”
“Hmm… I understand.”
Tenju Yorosha couldn’t believe it when he heard that a door almost as big as a person’s body was broken with a single kick.
Even though she was confident in her strength, she had no idea how many times she would have to try to break down that door.
As he pondered hard about how much he would have to do to break down that thick door, he was soon able to get a rough idea.
‘At least 13 times.’
One could ask whether it is possible to break down a door the size of a human body by kicking it only 13 times.
But.
If there’s anything else about Tenju Yo Rocha, she was the type of person who was never conceited when it came to battle and looked at herself quite objectively.
If you are conceited, you don’t know when your opponent will kill you. If you don’t look at yourself objectively, you will eventually become conceited.
That’s why he always controlled his mind to never be conceited.
‘If it’s true, he must be an incredible person.’
The moment Tenju Yorosha, who had been lingering over her broken door, entered her, she realized that the strength of her opponent was beyond comparison.
The inside was shattered here and there. Her pillars were scratched with knives and the floor was dented in several places.
‘There were at least 8 people working together. At the time she thought five was a lot, but she had much more. ‘Fox-like bitch.’
Tenju Yorosha, who had already dealt with Nishina Mai’s elite, was able to read her traces skillfully.
When she faced her before, she was fighting three people and the other two were guarding Nishina Mai, but now she realized that she had more than twice that number.
Since she is the person in charge of the operation, it is essential that she is intelligent and is good at hiding information from others.
Tenju Yorosha frowned for a moment as the disgusting face of Nishina Mai, who said that she was still lacking in a subject that was not even her strength, came to mind.
“How is it? “Do you really think what I said was a lie?”
Mai Nishina, who saw Tenju Yorosha’s expression, thought he had read something about her and asked.
After hearing her words, Yo Rocha immediately changed her expression and explained her thoughts.
“That’s amazing, I think at least 8 people passed.”
“Is that so? “I didn’t even know that there was someone who could destroy that acceptance.”
“Huh… I’m destroying Mai Nishina’s acceptance of eight elites…?”
Ito Furua, who had once been involved in battle but later withdrew from the front lines to survive, could not help but be surprised by Tenju Yorosha’s words.
‘There were as many as eight people…’
Externally, the total number of elites she has with her is 5.
If it weren’t for the fact that she personally brought it up against Tenju Yorosha, she would have thought that they were just security guards.
Moreover, the more important fact is that Autoji, the second-in-command, has no idea about this.
Because she thought that the elite that she had personally invested a lot of money into was just a somewhat skilled bodyguard.
‘As expected… Even when all his arms and legs were cut off, he never showed it and kept his strength hidden even more.’
If Nishina Mai had brought out her elite, Otoji would have suffered quite a bit of damage.
It would be nice to say that the skills of her elite soldiers were truly quite high.
But how strong is the person who single-handedly destroyed the passing of those elites?
She was concentrating on the words of Tenju Yo Rocha without realizing that cold sweat was running down her spine.
“Hmm… Nishina Mai, is the other person hurt?”
“No? “He walked away completely fine.”
“You’re not lying, right?”
“Was I so untrustworthy that I would lie about something like this?”
“Well, if everything you said is true… It would be beyond my ability to guess.”
“Really, Yorosha, you would say that?!”
“Yes, first, there are very few traces of movement. So I can’t understand it more clearly… In other words, there was enough room to not have to move much.”
Tenju Yo Rocha couldn’t believe what she saw with her own eyes as she checked the marks of her being left here and there.
That’s because while the traces of the elites are clearly visible, there are almost no traces left of their opponents.
If it were someone else, he would have thought it was just a group of elites training against an imaginary enemy.
‘A monster of this level existed in Korea?’
As far as he knew, a monster of this level never existed in the shadows of Korea.
Because he loved fighting so much, he deliberately looked for strong men in other countries.
At that moment, he was troubled by the appearance of a monster he had never heard of.
‘No way…!’
Tenju Yorosha recalled the time when the advance team that set out to pave the way to Korea was all wiped out.
At that time, she definitely had her own subordinates, and she had something to say over the radio.
-Goblin…! The real goblin is here… Ugh!!
The absurd statement that a real goblin exists here.
At the time, I felt a bit uncomfortable, but when I saw the traces here, I thought it might not be a lie.
