Episode 32

The voice that Heesung was hearing now was that of Choi Pil-hwan, who was in front of him.

I was sure because I had heard him on the phone just before.

However, the person he was talking to was not Heeseong, but someone else.

[You have a hidden camera video? The head of that entertainment agency? How do you know that?]

[How would I know? I know because I was commissioned to do it myself. I was commissioned by CEO Jang to install the hidden camera in that house and deliver the USB. And I did it for several years.]

[What? How many years? What the hell. That’s a crime, you punk. If you get involved, you’re in it too. Why on earth does that guy do that? Are you some kind of pervert?]

[Oh, but I didn’t install them in places like the bathroom or closet. I just installed one under the sofa and one under the bed. The only one that actually shows video is on the ceiling outside the front door. It looks like a sensor light.]

[One? So the rest of them don’t show any video? Then why install them?]

[This is for recording… … . What do you usually say, who do you talk to on the phone, who do you bring home, things like that? There must be a reason for everything, right?]

[So what’s the reason? Why would you monitor the every move of a celebrity you have with you, who isn’t even your lover? Do you love her or something?]

[… … .]

[What, why aren’t you saying anything? Is this true? The CEO of the agency is doing stalker things like that because he likes the actress he has?]

[Ah, don’t ask me to know more. Anyway, I’m doing this because I have a place to trust, so please invest a little more. This time, with the official license for detective work being issued, everyone is trying to open a detective agency, so I’m going to use this opportunity to really establish discipline. I’ve been handling a ton of money for you for the past 10 years, haven’t I? You’ve even managed to own a few buildings thanks to me.]

[This kid, he’s talking to someone who used to be a money lord. I know what he’s talking about. He’s going to use that to threaten CEO Jang and get some money out of him. He’s going to blow everything up if he doesn’t give it to me?]

[Bingo! That guy trusted me and did everything I asked him to do, so shouldn’t I use him when I need to? Well, I don’t plan on pulling out a real nuclear weapon though.]

[Nuclear weapons? What else is there besides this?]

[Yes. If CEO Jang knew that, he would probably collapse in shock. It would have given me goosebumps, too. He didn’t know until now because I edited everything out and relayed it to him. Hehe.]

[Edit? You, surely… … .]

[Tinkle tinkle. The real thing is contained here. What I gave to Representative Jang was just a collection of pleasant sounds. Aren’t these all good for the sister and brother-in-law? Hehe.]

[There really is no such thing as a tiger cub. A guy like this is running a detective agency. What did the customers do wrong?]

At that point the voice cut off.

In front of Heeseong’s eyes, Choi Pil-hwan was still talking on the phone, and he was standing in front of a foreign car, continuously blowing smoke from his cigarette.

“Hahaha, yes yes. Then I’ll text you the account number. This is a special tip to Reporter Kim, so hurry up and put an exclusive title on it and post it. That way, I can get a lot of views before the fun is over. Yes yes, I’ll hang up!”

It took me some time to sort out the voices I had just heard, but the gist of it was the same.

Jang Man-cheol installed a hidden camera and recorder in Cheon Si-eun’s house, and Choi Pil-hwan edited the original and delivered it to her.

Now we can check what’s inside the original.

“president?”

Hee-seong approached Choi Pil-hwan and handed him the business card he was holding.

“I saw you driving around with this in your car earlier. Do you work for a detective agency?”

He nodded vigorously, stubbing out his cigarette butt on the floor.

“Oh, yes! That’s right. This is Choi Pil-hwan from ‘First Detective Agency’! Our boss, is something bothering you?”

“Yes, there’s something I’d like to find out separately. Is your office nearby?”

“Yes, yes, of course! The weather is chilly, so I’ll take you to the office! Haha. How about going in my car?”

“I’ll follow the address written on your business card. I’ll drive there too.”

Choi Pil-hwan quickly looked up and down at Hee-seong as he spoke.

A person dressed in luxury goods from head to toe.

This person is a profitable client.

***

“… … Yes? Where do you want to investigate? One Class Enter?”

“To be exact, it’s about CEO Jang Man-cheol. I went there for that work and happened to meet the CEO in the parking lot.”

“Ha, this is… … . This is going to be difficult.”

Heeseong asked Choi Pil-hwan, who was rubbing his forehead.

“What is your problem?”

“Oh, that’s what I mean. Actually, CEO Jang Man-cheol is one of our clients. And he’s been around for quite some time. So it’s a bit difficult to accept requests like this… .”

“Is it difficult? No matter how much money I give you?”

“Yes? Money?”

Choi Pil-hwan’s gaze turned to the watch on Hee-seong’s left wrist.

This is the first accessory that caught my eye in the parking lot earlier.

Regardless of the price range, it is a product that is not easy to obtain even if you want it.

If you can wear something like that so casually, it means you’re definitely not an ordinary person.

“Isn’t this also a private business? It’s done on a case-by-case basis. Then, when the request is finished, the contract ends, so what’s the problem? A detective agency is literally a place that does what the client requests.”

That wasn’t a wrong statement.

The problem was that Jang Man-cheol’s request was still in progress.

Please continue to report this issue to the media so that it is not easily covered up.

At that moment, the client in front of me brought up a surprising story.

“It seems like you’re worried, but I don’t think Mr. Jang will ask you for any more work from now on. He’ll hit rock bottom soon and have no money or room to move. I heard something about that.”

“If it’s a story I heard, what is it… … ?”

“There have been various rumors about the actress I’m bringing with me. Well, I heard that she crossed the line. I’m trying to find out if it’s a hidden camera or something like that.”

Gulp.

Choi Pil-hwan swallowed hard and his expression became stiff.

Because that is a fact that no one other than President Jang and himself should know.

“Well, if I don’t get a job here, I’ll try looking for somewhere else. I think it’s because detective agencies have been officially licensed these days, so there are quite a few detective agencies in Gangnam. They’re all probably good at investigating.”

If you entrust that work to another detective agency, you’ll be in big trouble.

Anyone can easily see the sensor lights installed outside the front door, and anyone with a keen eye will quickly notice that there is a camera inside.

It’s only natural that you are in it.

After swallowing once more, Choi Pil-hwan asked Hee-seong.

“What exactly is it that you would like to request, sir… …? What do you want to know about CEO Jang Man-cheol?”

“First of all, I should introduce myself.”

Heeseong put his hand inside his shirt to take something out.

Normally, something like a business card would come out, but Heeseong, who had no such thing, quickly shook off his empty hands and spoke instead.

“I am currently in charge of Kim Ye-seul’s manager. Of course, since she does not have an official agency, I am looking after her personally. Does this answer your question?”

Gulp.

Choi Pil-hwan’s expression changed drastically once again.

This is because the name that he had been diligently reporting to the media until just before came out.

And on the other hand.

‘You’re raising a celebrity on your own without an agency? How much money do you have?’

Even without that, while digging into this case, I thought it was strange that she didn’t have an agency.

If you’ve reached that position in a short period of time, you must have an official agency.

It is also true that this work was easier because there was no agency.

Because I thought there was little chance of legal action being taken on that side.

“I intend to see this through to the end. Then, the one who has done more dirty work will lose more. If I’m right, it seems like President Choi has done most of the dirty work. At this point, how about cutting off this dangerous line and switching to a new one?”

This time, it’s more about persuasion than threats.

Since they are the type of people who prioritize money anyway, they will quickly decide which side to take.

Since the word “molka” has already come out, if you ask another detective agency, your life will fall into the abyss in an instant.

It would be better to change direction under the pretext of being loyal to a new client who offers good terms.

In any detective agency, clients who give a lot of money are VIPs.

Hee-seong drove the wedge into Choi Pil-hwan, who was gradually making up his mind.

“I will give you a generous amount of money. I will pay you a very surprising amount. In return, you must tell me everything you know without hiding anything. No matter how small it may be.”

***

“So, I also found this quite creepy, right? After all, installing a hidden camera in a house where a woman lives alone… … . So, just in case, I kept the original separately… … .”

While listening to the recording coming out of the earphones, Choi Pil-hwan was continuously making excuses to Hee-seong.

He also thought that this kind of thing was really wrong, he wondered how a person called the CEO of an agency could do something like this, that’s why he had collected files separately in preparation for a situation like today, etc.

In short, these were ridiculous claims that even ghosts wouldn’t believe.

“This is the original, right? It wasn’t given to CEO Jang Man-cheol.”

When Heeseong asked, Choi Pil-hwan nodded.

“Oh, yes. If you listen, you’ll understand, but if you listen to that, Jang Man-cheol will collapse. So in short, there was a b*tch on top of a b*tch who was running around. Anyway, I’m saying that they really met well, right? Of course, the b*tch is scarier and creepier.”

I thought I knew right away why Choi Pil-hwan had referred to it as a nuclear weapon.

And it must have been a huge shock to Heesung as well.

Because the work that started to deal with Jang Man-cheol turned out to be a bigger villain.

‘This is going to be a lot bigger than I thought?’

And that also meant that Kim Ye-seul’s case was likely to be resolved easily.

However, the ripples were to be much larger than they are now.

“Hey boss… … ? Haha, I gave you all the information I had, just like you said. When will the payment be made… … ?”

As Choi Pil-hwan asked while rubbing his palms together, Hee-sung took out his earphones and took out his wallet.

Then he held out a card and spoke seriously.

“Please give me a 36-month interest-free installment plan. Oh, and of course you know that the 10% credit card fee is illegal, right?”

‘What? Didn’t this kid have a lot of money?’
