Crazy Talented Ex-Villain - Crazy Talented Ex-Villain chapter 108
Good luck and bad luck (2)
Sometimes, even if it’s urgent, there are things that need to be pointed out.
Aren’t there proverbs related to this, such as knocking on a stone bridge before crossing it and asking for the way you know.
For me, the meeting at the gambling house was like that.
Instead of arranging weapons and focusing on training to confront a level 2 monster, go to a remote space in search of an old informant.
Of course, before that, I forgot to add a comment.
“Chips are consumed regularly. It’s a total of 15,000 dollars, so adjust the bet amount appropriately.”
<Don’t worry! Trust only the parrot you saw!>
I can’t believe the shape of the eyes nailed to the roulette table at all… It didn’t matter.
You wouldn’t know if it was a card game, but a parrot’s [Three-Dimensional Sensing] is a useless skill anyway.
In addition, since each table has a person with the ability to detect and monitors whether they are cheating, I stop worrying and move on.
The destination was a secret room attached to the edge of the gambling house, and even strangers could tell that it was a brothel.
Indeed, there was a mix of people of all ages, genders, and people with disabilities and those who were fine around the door.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man wearing heavy makeup gave a unilateral notice while biting his little fingernail.
“I don’t accept the goods. Dollar, ruble (Russian Monetary Unit).”
“dollar.”
“The price varies depending on the number of heads, and it starts at $300. pick.”
So, without delay, I point to a woman.
He had black hair and white skin, but the tips of his fingers had calluses and his cheeks were strewn with freckles, so it was normal.
Of course, the number of times I was singled out is small, and even if I do get-
“Unfortunately Nella is not feeling well. I was just about to tell you to come in… I’ll give you fifty dollars cheaper for another child.”
I’m trying to sneak out
If this is the case, you will have no choice but to go through the tedious process.
“I need him. On the contrary, I will give you another 50 dollars.”
“… You are stubborn.”
“Koreans are like that.”
“It can’t be, though. This is business policy. Nella-”
“Let’s stop looking again.”
“what?”
“Money is not important. Just lie there.”
“What a lie… hey. If there is a problem, your position as an outsider will be difficult.”
“… is it. So what about everyone else?”
“Just pick whoever you are.”
“Eva Sokolova.”
And for an instant, only the noise from the tables in the gambling hall remained in the vicinity of the closed room.
It’s a name I heard directly from myself, but it hit the mark anyway.
The ensuing conversation takes place in a closed room with a bed and dressing table.
twenty-four this year.
The woman took out a cigarette and asked, looking younger than the image in her memory.
“Where did you hear my name? I haven’t said it out of my mouth since I stepped on Russian soil.”
“… … .”
“Are you not going to talk? Whenever you say you need it.”
At the same time, a metal box containing various cigarettes is presented, and I pick out the one I am familiar with.
Bella Morcanal (short for ‘Baltic Canal’).
It was the cheapest cigarette with the Baltic Sea drawn on the surface of the cigarette pack, so tramps smoked a lot.
Well, I didn’t mean to smoke.
It’s just a tool to indulge in reminiscence for a while.
“… Your taste is unique It’s a cigarette that only old people smoke.”
“Those who want to appear present must be disliked.”
“Anyway, are you going to talk?”
However, it seems that the other person’s patience has run out when it comes to fiddling with the strong scent unique to Bella Morcanal and the thin paper film without a filter.
“It is difficult to tell you the source.”
“How far have you heard? You probably didn’t hear my real name.”
“Eva Sokolova from Pardubice, Czech Republic. At the age of 14, when his homeland fell, he reached the Far East via Slovakia and Ukraine.”
“… In addition? Is that all?”
“At the age of 16, I worked in the drug trade in Ussuriysk, Primorye. I touched quite a bit of money, but I couldn’t save it because I was at the bottom of the organization. Then I entered Nakhodka, a military city southeast of Vladivostok… I became a wolf.”
The face of the person concerned is chilled at the words that mean the KGB and the National Security Council Information Bureau.
That’s right, everything I said with my own mouth.
Recalling the past, even the deadly look made me laugh.
In reality, he was neither on the same side nor on the other person’s side. Still, it has been a long relationship because the iron rule of give and take has been properly followed.
“I am annoyed by the carefree chatter. The way you spit it out when you asked me, do you think you are quite confident in your skills?”
“any.”
“Don’t pretend to be a foreigner. This is a place where countless humans die without even knowing mice or birds. Even if it got the governor’s attention. Do you think it will be difficult to deal with you alone?”
“no.”
The moment when Eva Sokolova’s eyebrows frowned at her innocent acceptance. At the same time as taking care of my safety, I bring out the main topic to get the information I want.
The real secret was different.
“But you can’t kill me. To be precise, I know you won’t.”
“why me?”
“Because I kept your secret.”
“… … ?”
“You are a person with special abilities.”
All kinds of emotions linger on the woman’s face at the words she suddenly spat out.
I’m guessing, if you’ve been thinking about the organizations that investigated my past, such as the HT Group and the Korean Ministry of Information… From this moment on, you will feel that the whole board has been turned upside down.
The pale complexion proved this.
“Who is this talented person? I?”
“yes.”
“You are talking nonsense. The Awoken cannot hide from the Sense. They say it’s fine if you run away later, but there’s no way to get out of the first awakening.”
“Usually it is. But you’re the same type of talent. It was also at the top from the start, so I played on top of their heads.”
“… … .”
And from now on, I had to tease without stopping my mouth.
If you see even a gap, they’ll call the rice cake sticks and try to bury them.
“I am not criticizing. If you turn out to be a Linker, you’ll have to live in a safe house, right? I would have made the same choice.”
“… … .”
“More than anything else, it’s fortunate for me. You can not only detect the awakened person, but also constantly recognize the person with the special ability, right?”
“… just tell me the point what do you want.”
Fortunately or unfortunately, she was willing to listen and see.
“Find someone. Additional information about the breeding grounds is also needed. Do the former with your own abilities, but the latter can be obtained from the KGB. In exchange, I will match the total of $100,000 after obtaining information with an advance payment of $15,000.”
“Where are you going to spend that penny?”
“Pitts in dollars are not pennies.”
“… The breeding grounds must mean beyond the leopard’s land, and who are the people?”
The answer to a quiet question immediately jumps out.
The first is the people who received help from their previous lives, and the homeless who have not yet been extradited to the country and are imprisoned in a Russian camp.
Hong Byeong-yoon, a man with psychodynamic abilities who played a major role in breaking out of a Korean prison.
Among them, Nam Jong-shik, an old man who claimed to be my teacher (taught me all sorts of hunting techniques and survival methods).
Kwon Jae-won and others who saved a ship to stow away to Russia.
The next turn was those who had been in groups during the assault on Vladivostok’s defenses.
“… Anthony Berg, Ralph Kogler, and finally Sukhbaatar.”
“Sukhbaatar? Are you of Mongolian descent?”
“right.”
“… I understand your requirements. However, no matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t pay off. Secrets are meant to be hidden, and if anyone knows, they should be kept hidden forever. At least that’s what I think.”
“That’s right too.”
“right? Then why should I keep you alive? Do you have any reason to accept this outrageous offer?”
However, if there is a small problem, it is to match the product price of both sides.
I put on the scales the personal history she longs for, but has been giving up on.
“Novokolasovo.”
“Tell me so I can understand.”
“It’s a settlement about an hour away by car from Minsk, the capital of Belarus. go there.”
“Test my patience now-”
“Your father is there. exactly… Confined to a camp in Novokolasovo.”
Soon, Eva Sokolova looks as if her scalp has been blown off.
As I stared at that bewildered figure, a mysterious emotion welled up in one side of my heart.
In my previous life, even if I held on to it, it went away, but this time, it seems like I pushed my back and let it go.
“you you… How can I trust you?”
“I can’t help it if I don’t believe it.”
“… How did you know my father was there? If you want to make me believe it, give me a reasonable source.”
It was.
We also dated once, so like all ex-lovers, the dog fight ended last.
Looking back, it seems that it had its own meaning.
Regardless of the intention of coming here, it feels like shaking off the remaining lingering feelings.
“Is it important? Even if the proper source doesn’t exist, you’ll go there. This is the information I desperately wanted.”
“… under. Are you prophesying or what?”
“The prophecies are nonsense… I think he just pulled the time. It was something you would find out someday.”
And she didn’t dare to tip the plate.
It was 10 minutes later that I came out of the secret room.
“It was a good deal.”
“… You will get every dollar.”
“Nothing.”
Agreed to find the files containing information on the breeding grounds and the group of monsters in the afternoon of the same day, and the person to find them within a week.
I’m about to go back after saying hello instead of saying hello.
Suddenly, there is a commotion on the other side of the casino.
At first glance, it was a roulette table. My feet are hardened by a picture that is different from what I expected.
on the table.
Chips are piled up in Im Seol-ha’s seat.
Read from noble mtl dot com
More than ever before.
“Как здорово (Awesome)!”
“У тебя есть талант, Удача – это талант (There is talent. Luck is talent)!”
“uh… thanks!”
I couldn’t have understood what you meant.
The stupid little boy, who had put all of his life’s luck into a white ball, was merry-go-round after understanding it roughly.
<Are you here?>
“… … .”
<Look at this. It was called $1,300 in that moment.>
“Why.”
<Huh?>
“Why is it called that?”
This is a question seriously asked.
This is money I have to lose, so why was it called?
No, how did you get called?
<I put a chip on the square number box, and it grows on its own? Im Seol-ha is amazing. Because there is distribution. I kept losing, but in one shot… Fuck!>
“… … .”
<Did the money get copied?>
I was an idiot who trusted the parrot.
