Chapter 92

U-gwang Sinking Plan Start

“Secretary Kim, still early to go find grandfather. That after obtaining certain evidence, let’s talk again.”

I jumped down from the sofa with a hop.

“With only circumstantial evidence, no. Certain evidence of course, and even a neatly organized acquisition plan document perfectly written and report together.”

“Excellent.”

“That is Secretary Kim’s work, and the judgment is grandfather’s share.”

“Very right words.”

Secretary Kim pulled up his mouth corner and smiled.

I pushed Secretary Kim’s business card straight.

“Trying to recover U-gwang’s weakness. Hope Secretary Kim does together with me.”

“Of course. But put this back in.”

Secretary Kim also pushed the business card toward me.

“A great plan for Taeseong’s future, I have to help properly. So the words of request are not appropriate.”

Seemed obtained a thousand troops and ten thousand horses.

‘At least Secretary Kim has to properly recognize that I established a great merit in this matter.’

Intending to claim my merit in front of grandfather.

‘Better a hundred times for Secretary Kim to testify than me who is just eight years old claiming merit myself. Overwhelmingly in the aspect of reliability.’

Grandfather is a person who rewards according to merit.

‘Have to appeal that my merit and contribution were absolute in the matter of swallowing U-gwang’s affiliates.’

If trying to eat for free sitting still, a daylight thief, but if receiving merit discussion according to merit, it becomes a reward.

My share I have to take care!

The reason deliberately came to find Secretary Kim.

“Secretary Kim, how many minutes shall I give?”

“Yes?”

“Have to distribute the remaining company work to the secretaries, and entrust the investigation regarding Bulgwang-dong Gasoline to Yu Jong-tae.”

“Then please wait just 1 minute.”

As expected Secretary Kim!

This is very reliable!

The place the underworld messenger guided was Mia-ri Texas Village.

This place was one of Seoul’s representative three major pleasure districts along with Cheongnyangni and Cheonho-dong.

A place formed by a large migration of professional women who flowed in as the Jongno 3-ga red-light district closed in the 1960s, passed the heyday of the 90s and entered the path of decline according to the Special Act on the Prevention of Prostitution in 2004.

Therefore now a nightless city, itself!

“Oppa, come to our shop. I’ll treat well.”

“There are many pretty girls. How about one drink together tonight?”

Flashy neon signs and densely lined shops.

The business girls doing solicitation smiled and waved hands.

‘Here was a place that the Namsan Leech managed once. Who is managing now?’

Like a guy who revealed women, the Namsan Leech tightly caught this side and became a big shot in the shadows.

A big shot pimp who operated not only Seoul’s three major red-light districts but also several high-class membership clubs represented by Gangnam and Cheongdam.

‘Tsk, as expected such things are not my style.’

Secretary Kim also frowned as much as me.

“This is not a place the Young Master should come.”

“If only finding the object that Bulgwang-dong Gasoline entrusted, I’ll exit immediately. Secretary Kim and Taeseong Group security guard uncles can spend the remaining good time and come.”

The Taeseong Group security guards were startled.

“Aigo, Young Master! Don’t say such words somewhere!”

“Misunderstanding! We didn’t come here to play but came to work!”

But from the very back, the sound of true heart muttering without sense from the new security guard flowed out.

“Soon get off work time. On the occasion of coming all the way here······Gack!”

Before the new security guard’s words even ended, he was dragged by the seniors and disappeared into the back alley.

When the sound of beating began to be heard, Secretary Kim held my hand and hurried the steps.

“Said Mia-ri Flower Inn?”

The place the underworld messenger informed that Bulgwang-dong Gasoline’s lover is staying.

[There. The earth-bound spirit of that inn reported.]

The underworld messenger pointed with a finger.

[The guy called Bulgwang-dong Gasoline came to this place a few days ago and conveyed a note to the lover and requested the back.]

Ding dong. Ding dong.

Clack clack.

“The front door was locked.”

“No window, and no person inside.”

“Seems only the front door as the door. What shall we do?”

The Taeseong Group security guards reported.

Secretary Kim instructed as if nothing.

“Open.”

“Young Master, wait a bit. I’ll bring the sledgehammer.”

“Dangerous so step back far. I’ll kick the door······ Young Master, what are you doing now?”

“Don’t know looking? Picking the door.”

I attacked the lock with the wire and hairpin I carried in the coin wallet.

“Where did that come out again?”

Where did it come out.

Took care of what used when picking the Hannam-dong house basement safe.

‘The locks of this era are crude beyond measure so quickly done. I earned quite a pocket money picking this in my young days?’

If working at the pawnshop, picking locked safes becomes nothing.

Thanks to that, gained the knack and nothing couldn’t pick.

Picked safes too, picked doors too, picked bottle caps too······ Done!

“No, Young Master. Looking now, not only picking bottles well but also picking doors well!”

“Picks bottles too?”

“Yes, Secretary Kim. Last time the Young Master personally picked the wine bottle with a jackknife?”

“With a jackknife? So the cork stopper?”

“Saw such artistic bottle picking for the first time?”

“Is that a possible matter?”

“Amazing. No separate rare item. As soon as said, pop! As soon as done, clack!”

The eyes of Secretary Kim looking back at me were hot.

I opened the front door and grinned.

“Thanks to that, didn’t attract the neighbors’ attention? Then enough.”

I had to do a hollow cough ahem.

“Is picking the door important now? Anyway the door opened so finding and recovering the object that Bulgwang-dong Gasoline hid inside is important.”

“Right.”

The Taeseong Group security guards stepped forward and entered the house with big strides.

“The Young Master please step aside far.”

“Will overturn the house. Might get hurt.”

The Taeseong Group security guards entered the house with shoe feet and began overturning noisily.

“No, why doing the work so extremely?”

“Have you seen a thief quietly searching the house?”

“If a thief, naturally searching from the wardrobe and chest, bedding cabinet first.”

Secretary Kim smiled coldly.

“We didn’t come invited here. Quickly search and take only the object and withdraw immediately.”

Well that is the rule of theft, but.

‘No need to invite such hard work and mess particularly.’

I looked around the inside of the house.

‘Found!’

There was a place where golden light uniquely flashed.

I opened the jar lid of the rice jar and put in the arm and stirred.

A rustling black plastic bag was caught in the hand.

Inside the plastic bag, there was paper scribbled with bad handwriting.

‘Bulgwang-dong Gasoline’s handwritten statement!’

I stood up abruptly.

“Secretary Kim, look at this a bit. Found!”

“So quickly?”

Secretary Kim was surprised and opened eyes round.

“How did you find that at once?”

“······Treasure hunt?”

“······.”

What? Why? What!

Found the treasure right!

Can’t say that golden light flashed from this side.

There’s no way to explain?

“Seems found the object so withdraw now.”

“Yes!”

* * *

Secretary Kim sat side by side with me in the car back seat.

“The Young Master’s prediction was correct. The weakness of U-gwang that Bulgwang-dong Gasoline is holding. It was instigation of arson of the U-gwang fire.”

The paper that Bulgwang-dong Gasoline hid in the lover’s house rice jar was all three pages.

“This is the statement regarding the secret order. Approached a Taeseong Chemicals laborer called Kim Gap-yong and tried to instruct to set fire to the chemical factory under the pretext of private loans, but at the end he resigned and the matter greatly went wrong, the content.”

The sound that can call Kim Gap-yong and receive testimony regarding the corresponding content.

Secretary Kim turned the next page.

“This is the circumstance statement of bringing flammable substances into the U-gwang Chemicals factory. Ordered the following to Hyunmu Chemicals in the name of U-gwang Chemicals. Quite detailed.”

Taeseong Chemicals often received some raw materials supplied from Hyunmu Chemicals.

“Since a matter that Hyunmu Chemicals is entangled, this also if investigating can clarify.”

“However, this can be evidence proving Bulgwang-dong Gasoline’s crime but can’t be decisive evidence that U-gwang instructed the arson.”

“So Bulgwang-dong Gasoline determined to threaten U-gwang. Because wouldn’t have wanted to die alone.”

The next page that Secretary Kim held out is as follows.

This is just a taste. The decisive evidence that you are the behind of the U-gwang Chemicals fire accident I am keeping separately.

I guarantee, no matter how great a person you are, won’t be able to escape.

Trying to cut the tail coming now? Then you die and I die. Because of that I prepared separately.

Secretary Kim wrinkled his brows.

“Somehow struggling to try to entangle with U-gwang, but don’t know if there’s something like evidence regarding the behind. Can’t distinguish whether this is true or bluff.”

“Even if bluff, doesn’t it not matter?”

“Yes?”

“Anyway for threat. If only U-gwang flinches, enough.”

The reason Bulgwang-dong Gasoline entrusted such a thing to the lover?

Because feared if taking the sole responsibility and suffering murder and silence just in case.

If pretending not to know me, this will fly in as a tip-off of the same content to the media and police station, prosecution office, Central Intelligence Agency. Simultaneously. To every corner of the country. Why? Think I can’t do?

Anyway we are a fate community who boarded the same boat? Accomplices have to help each other.

If I go out fine, such a terrifying object won’t fly in as a tip-off. Promise.

Isn’t this enough reason to have to save me?

The real reason U-gwang pulled out Bulgwang-dong Gasoline from the Central Intelligence Agency using unreasonable numbers.

U-gwang had a lot, and if the media and Blue House react and the police and prosecution are input in large numbers, about to become X.

“An object that was together. U-gwang Construction Secretary Choi’s business card. Probably the tip-off was planned to be sent here.”

A business card with a shit light.

How on earth did Bulgwang-dong Gasoline get this in hand.

Would give one’s own business card crazy while making do the fishy work of arson.

Clearly know that might be framed as an accomplice? Nonsense.

‘The rabbit digs several holes to escape.’

Thought would entrust the decisive evidence to the lover’s house, but the guy rolled the head more cunningly than that.

“How much would be the probability that a mere private loaner receives the business card of U-gwang Construction’s closest aide?”

“Almost none. So the investigation agency will regard it as a suspicious circumstance. But can’t be certain evidence of the crime.”

“But as U-gwang, if receiving such a thing, would feel quite eerie?”

That is the essence and core of the threat.

So it would have worked.

“U-gwang has a lot so has a lot to lose. Just in case if a person who doesn’t ignore that tip-off and digs the back arises, the words that will be a headache. Whether that is true or not.”

The reason U-gwang hastily pulled out Bulgwang-dong Gasoline from the Seobinggo water torture room covering.

“Then let’s do that threat too.”

“Yes?”

“If this tip-off and business card are sent not to Secretary Choi but to another address, what would happen?”

“Young Master, surely······!”

“Send to Chairman Kim of U-gwang.”

“······!”

Secretary Kim dropped his mouth open.

“Would Chairman Kim of U-gwang stay still even receiving this?”

“Y, Young Master!”

“Because of the U-gwang Chemicals fire, was called to the Blue House and suffered hardship, and the property damage is over 1 billion, and due to the death insurance money and damage compensation problem, unplanned expenditure increased, and in the situation where the union is stirring, even U-gwang’s stock price plummeted?”

Secretary Kim’s pupils began to tremble as if an earthquake occurred.

“A matter that U-gwang instigated arson to U-gwang Chemicals. If Chairman Kim, doesn’t it seem eyes will turn and run wild saying will catch the traitor?”

Borrowing a knife to kill a person.

This is a word I like very much.

“This also whether true or not, doesn’t it not matter in us threatening?”

U-gwang sinking plan first stage. Start.
