Episode 139. Execution Power (4)

“This is ridiculous!”

At Brownhood headquarters, Alex’s angry voice echoed.

“Alex, calm down. This isn’t an emotional issue.”

“Feelings? Do you think I’m doing this because of feelings?”

Rick’s expression darkened. He had good reason to be angry.

“Shouldn’t you admit it now? Hansan has no intention of reporting Elecharmoni!”

“It hasn’t been that long…… I know Hansan is busy these days. It’ll take some time.”

With public order in jeopardy, Brownhood was also taking a direct hit.

There was no need to gather the extremely poor who ‘could not afford any implants’ as before.

Hansan barely avoided the laws they had created and provided massive support to the Brownhoods, who were essentially no different from a gang.

But they were given responsibilities commensurate with their power.

“Circumstances? I know that Hansan is shaking. But is Hansan the only one suffering? Three members died yesterday. Everyone is suffering!”

They took part in protests. They didn’t just remain as ‘terrorists fighting corporations’ as before.

The poor came to Brownhood when they were wronged. They had a duty to resolve it.

“I fought like a dog. I didn’t even care about my life! But it wasn’t because I wanted to be a dog of Hansan, but because I believed they would do the right thing!”

Hansan wanted the gangs and businesses that ‘crossed the line’ to pay a price, but even mobilizing the police and private soldiers was not enough to stop the chaos.

The Brownhoods were fighting ‘inter-gang’ fights with other gangs, and it wasn’t the kind of fight they were used to.

If it were to carry out operations against corporations or carry out terrorist activities, it would have been possible to use the know-how it had accumulated.

It was a suicidal operation with a low success rate, but at least in that area Brownhood had something special about him.

But if it was a fight between gangs, then naturally the ‘real gangs’ with more combat experience would be stronger.

“I held out as long as I could.”

Even if you have stronger weapons and power, you can’t win every fight without taking damage.

One by one, the wounds were piling up.

“Sacrifice… is unfortunate, but it has to happen-.”

“After sacrificing our members like that, aren’t we getting nothing in return?”

Although Alex had not been in Brownhood for very long, he joined their cause more enthusiastically than anyone else.

He fought without sparing his life in dangerous battles and served as an example to other members without any flaws.

“Don’t be so hasty in your thinking…….”

“What companies say is the same. I’ve been there, so I’m saying this. The manuals are all the same!”

“I guess they just have to get over the immediate accident.”

Alex’s voice grew louder. He couldn’t just sit by and watch this turn of events unfold as they wanted.

“If you can last a week, you can last this week. If you can last this week, you can last a month! And if you can last a month, ‘those past problems’ will become trivial things that can be ignored!”

“Hansan has done something. If they have shown this much sincerity, we should trust them too.”

“That’s what happens when Hansan gives us the authority to monitor the company!”

Surely, that was the deal until Brownhood and Hansan came together. It wasn’t explicitly stated, but everyone assumed there was some kind of secret agreement.

“Their true feelings? We have never known their true feelings! They have always sided with the poor only when it was beneficial to them!”

Rick sighed and looked around.

Not everyone agreed with Alex’s harsh words, but there were those who nodded.

The deep-rooted resentment that the Brownhood people had built up against the corporation was not something that could be easily washed away.

“Chief, please speak out. The organization is going this way-.”

“Why are you looking at me? As I said, I’m just one of the members. The choice is up to Rick, the leader.”

“Of course, I don’t like this situation either. It makes me feel bad and disgusted.”

The woman in the hat looked at Alex with a face full of worry.

“So, what do you want to do? Be specific.”

“Of course we must destroy Elecharmoni! One person has already died, and they are trying to kill another person!”

“So, by what means? Terror?”

“If it’s necessary, then do it!”

“Then my connection with Hansan will be cut off. I will become a fugitive again.”

“I’ve never been afraid of it. I don’t know what kind of life it is, but… I was prepared for it from the moment I knocked on this door!”

“You can do that, but what about other people?”

Alex ground his teeth in exasperation.

“Aren’t they opportunists? They’re disgusting people who only want to do the easy thing!”

A comfortable bed, solid support, abundant supplies and strong weapons.

There was a lot to be gained by taking Hansan’s side. However, Alex thought that if that was what he would get in return for becoming a corporate dog, he should refuse it.

“That may be true. But they are the center of Brownhood right now. If you want to resist the leader’s methods, you should at least gather their opinions. Present a clear alternative.”

But Alex couldn’t come up with a proper answer to the hat-wearing woman’s objection.

“And your attitude is clearly emotional. Do you have any personal feelings for Elecharmony?”

“……I won’t deny it. But that’s not why I brought it up.”

There was silence. Numerous eyes were looking at Alex.

“First of all, Mr. Alex… I’ll take you out of the operation. Rest for the time being. Cool your head a bit.”

“……Are you trying to drive me out?”

“No. You’ve just been in too many battles already. Even if I come up with an alternative like you said, it’ll still take time.”

It was a fair argument. Alex couldn’t argue with Rick’s statement.

“……If everyone leaves this alone, I will do it alone.”

“I can’t stop it… but if that time comes, please be careful.”

Alex trudged out of Brownhood’s headquarters. The building was a symbol of the compromise they had made, built on Hansan’s money and land.

Rick sighed deeply. The immediate division was over, but Brownhood would never be the same again.

The seeds of doubt that Alex had planted were sprouting in the hearts of the members.

The central district was basically located on high ground.

Even if a building was relatively tall, if it was not located in a central area, it would not be able to look down on the people living there.

However, there were few buildings that made that possible.

It was an apartment. A high-rise apartment where even the chickens in the coop probably had more personal space than this.

It was a huge building built with the obsession to accommodate as many people as possible.

“It’s trash…….”

E looked out over the businesses in the central district from the rooftop.

Although there was quite a distance, his eyes could see clearly no matter how far away it was.

A smile appeared on his lips, as if he found the whole situation simply amusing.

That he died from working too much, and that he tried to kill people to hide it. In fact, that wasn’t his job.

It’s not like he threatened to kill everyone if they didn’t work at this factory.

If things were that hard, it would have been a problem that could have been solved if you had just figured it out on your own.

“You little hypocrites…….”

Laughter flowed out.

No matter what they say, Hansando is just the same as them.

Like so many people in power, he simply co-opted morality as a means to oppress people.

“Since we’ve already started, let’s finish it cleanly.”

Foolishly, the corporations that had called him to Stella City were failing to capitalize on, spread, or sustain this chaos.

If things continue this way, Hansanwoo will stabilize the city again. A boring city ruled by the rich, neither free nor just.

It was time for some after-sales service. It was time to take the visor out again.

“My body is starting to feel a little stiff…….”

Although the small requests were fun, there were many parts that were disappointing for such a big shot.

If you kill them, all the enemies will fall and you won’t be able to run wild.

“Well, work is work. It’s hard for work to be fun.”

If you really love something, you should do it as a hobby.

If you are bound by someone else’s promises, you will never be free, no matter how much you love doing it.

And he always wanted to be free.

E sat up, relaxed his muscles, and raised his head.

The splendidly shining Stella City spread out before his eyes.
