Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 285
Only Noblemtl
285. Heroes are not born, they are made (5)
Hanbin, who had been looking at the magistrate for a long time, smiled strangely.
At that laughter, the magistrate flinched and took a step back.
Hanbin turned his gaze and looked at Hyeonbi.
With those eyes, Hyunbi approached with her escort.
As expected of a wise queen, Hanbin knew that she had something to say to him.
Hyunbi approached Hanbin and asked.
“Do you have anything to say to me, Grandmaster?”
“Yes, it is an important matter. This matter must be decided by the Queen Mother.”
Hyun-bi narrowed her eyes at Han-bin’s words.
“What do I need to decide?”
“It’s a matter of whether to reveal or cover up. One group is related to the martial arts world, but the second group I mentioned is related to the country.”
“Huh, what do you mean?”
“The author took a bribe even for this trivial lantern event. Since he took the bribe instead of the invitation, there was no trace of poison on the invitation.”
As Hanbin finished speaking, Hyeonbi’s gaze was fixed on the official.
At the same time, the intestines began to churn.
“That official was the second thief that the Great Swordsman spoke of.”
“But you said it was a group.”
“Now that I think about it, it’s strange.”
“Still, he is the Envoy of Cheongun. He is truly great, just as his reputation suggests.”
At their voices, the manager looked at his hands in thought.
It was ridiculous.
Although I have taken money from people who had blue invitations, I have never accepted a bribe and just let them in without checking the invitations.
However, he could not deny that there were traces of poison on his hands.
Where did the poison come from?
Why is the poisoning case connected to the bribe he received?
The management seemed to be going crazy.
But fortunately, thanks to the magistrate who happened to arrive at the right time, the bribe was hidden.
Once we get over this crisis, we can use the money we’ve saved to cover up this issue.
There was no crime in the world that could be charged against those with money and power.
Besides, wasn’t the magistrate on his side?
As the commotion around him grew louder, the manager tried to calm his heart.
Hanbin, who was watching that scene, smiled sincerely.
It was all Hanbin’s plan.
Hanbin came to the lantern festival with the list of deaths engraved in his heart.
Of course, the officer controlling the entrance was the last to be put on the death list.
It was only natural that there were no traces of poison on the invitation the manager had.
Where would you find an assassin who sneaks in and poisons an invitation?
There was no way Tang Moon-ho would make such a mistake.
Well, it was even less likely that the forces assisting Tang Moon-ho would make such a mistake.
Traces of poison detected on the manager’s hands were left there by Hanbin.
In fact, there was no poison in the iron sword that Hanbin gave to the manager.
It was buried when Hanbin held his hand tightly after giving him the iron sword.
As for whether this poison was harmful, it was not harmful at all.
As for whether this poison could be transferred to other places, that was also impossible.
This useless poison was merely a vehicle to drive the management into a corner.
Well, if the official hadn’t been noticed, they would have immediately arrested the county magistrate, but the official who revealed the bribe was digging his own grave.
Hanbin, who had been lost in thought for a moment, looked around.
The surrounding assembly members and those attending the lantern festival were still noisy, as if they had a lot to say.
Hanbin immediately clapped his hands and put an end to the commotion.
match.
The sound seemed light, but it made everyone tense.
Although there was no momentum, the bluff and bravado shown earlier was engraved in their minds.
As the commotion died down, Hanbin looked at Hyeonbi.
Hyunbi said.
“Please tell me, Grandmaster.”
“Okay then. I will bring the evidence now.”
Hanbin raised his hand high and snapped his fingers.
Exactly!
At the same time as that sound, the outside where the lantern festival was being held began to become noisy.
The beggars came rushing in.
The beggars placed a box in front of Hanbin.
The beggar said.
“What should I do?”
“Open it.”
“Yes, I understand, Grandmaster.”
When the beggar opened the box, it was full of iron and silver coins.
Well, most of it was iron, but the problem was that there was money in the box.
Hanbin asked the beggar.
“Where did you come from?”
“As I was guarding the entrance as the Great Swordsman had said, the officials tried to move the box somewhere.”
“Then did you take it from the official?”
“Yes, as the Grand Master said, we safely put the officials to sleep and brought them here.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin looked at Hyeonbi.
“I see. Was there an admission fee for the lantern festival?”
“hmm.”
“But the problem is from now on. Water can’t just rot in one place.”
“Master, please explain it to me more simply.”
“Then I will show you directly.”
Hanbin, who had finished speaking, raised his hand again.
Then he snapped his fingers.
Exactly, exactly.
This time it bounced twice.
At the same time, a louder commotion was heard from behind.
“What is that?”
“I know?”
“Are you bringing it in because of the lantern festival?”
“This month, you brought that big Buddha statue because of the lantern festival?”
As they said, a large Buddha statue was moving behind them.
The statue was placed on an iron plate, and dozens of poles were placed underneath the iron plate to show how large it was.
There were twenty beggars carrying those poles.
The sight of the large Buddha statue approaching as if it were alive was truly spectacular.
However, there were people who were terrified when they saw the Buddha statue.
Of course, he was a county magistrate.
Hanbin’s voice was heard in the magistrate’s ears.
“Would you like to find out?”
“So, that Buddha statue… … .”
“I brought you the Buddhist statue that I have in your office.”
“How can you so carelessly take something from a government office… … .”
“Didn’t you say you would cooperate?”
“Well, that’s true, but why did you bring the sacred Buddha statue?”
“Is it really as sacred as you say?”
“… … .”
The magistrate was speechless.
At that moment, one of the people who had moved the Buddha statue approached Hanbin.
“Cheongunsashin Daehyeop, it seems that it is indeed a sacred Buddha statue as Lee Ja said.”
The person who just spoke was not the only beggar.
He was wearing a white robe, and his sleeves were covered with plum blossoms that seemed to move alive in the moonlight.
Everyone started to buzz at the appearance of a new character.
“It’s a volcano.”
“It’s not just a volcano. Look at that sleeve. It’s full of plum blossoms.”
“Huh, then plum blossom inspection?”
“No, it’s clear that he’s not just any plum blossom inspector, but a plum blossom inspector who has made contributions to the Hwasan faction.”
“It seems that the Cheongunsashin had a connection with the Hwasanpa as well.”
“He is a hero of the Jeongpa faction, so is it strange that he has a connection with the Hwasan faction?”
“That is true.”
As the commotion died down, Hanbin continued speaking.
“Thank you for your hard work, Plum Blossom Sword Association.”
“no.”
“But what does it mean that the Buddha statue is sacred?”
“I’ve seen it all my life, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a heavy Buddha statue.”
“Hehe, so you’re saying the inside of the Buddha statue is full?”
“That’s right. It’s several times heavier than other Buddha statues, perhaps because it’s filled with Buddhist faith.”
“Then I will personally check your sincerity.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin took out an iron coin from his bosom.
Then he shot at the Buddha statue.
Whoosh!
With a sharp crash, the iron bullet struck the Buddha’s belly.
The place Hanbin was aiming for was the weakest part of the Buddha statue’s structure.
In addition, the 100% accurate technique did not have even an inch of error.
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard.
Damn!
At the same time, the Buddha statue collapsed and its contents spilled out.
Thud thud.
All kinds of wealth flowed out like a river flowing through a broken dam.
Hanbin said at that sight.
“That’s all I have to reveal. I guess I should leave the rest up to the authorities.”
“Oh, I see. Thank you, Daehyeop.”
Hyun-bi looked at the magistrate with a dejected expression.
At that gaze, the magistrate’s shoulders were trembling slightly, whether in anger or fear.
Hyunbi judged that the magistrate was trembling because he was afraid.
Taking bribes was an open secret among officials, but it would be a disaster if it was exposed to the world like this.
Of course, the surrounding area became a mess.
As all kinds of treasures poured out from the Buddha statue, the image was more vividly engraved in their minds.
It was obvious that by tomorrow morning it would have been inflated dozens of times and spread throughout the world.
That was when.
The magistrate shouted in anger.
“Was I the only one who received bribes? Was I the only one who committed a crime? The work of exposing the assassin has not yet been completed, so why do you persecute me? Who sent you to harm me? Who are you?”
The magistrate walked towards Hanbin.
Although they were overwhelmed by the momentum of the arrogance, it was natural for them to rush forward in evil when they were all going to die.
Hanbin said expressionlessly.
“Ask heaven who sent it!”
“Where is the sky? The sky is for those who have money!”
After finishing speaking, the magistrate glanced to the side and snatched the soldier’s sword.
Then he quickly ran towards Hanbin.
Sreung!
Pavapak.
Everyone ran towards the magistrate.
However, the speed of the governor was quite fast.
Hanbin laughed as if he found that sight amusing.
Then he took out another iron coin from his bosom and threw it at the magistrate.
stroke!
The iron sword that had flown quietly hit the governor with considerable force as it matched the speed at which he was running.
Phew!
At the same time, the magistrate rolled on the floor.
Degururur.
The magistrate, who had been rolling around several times, stretched out like a lion.
The room became even more agitated.
Hanbin quietly looked at the magistrate, not paying attention to the commotion.
When did Hyeonryeong get on Hanbin’s list of murders?
Well, it wasn’t because he squeezed the blood of the people that he died. Just having a relationship with Tang Moon-ho put him on the list of the dead.
After causing discord with the Tang family, you have to get rid of the county magistrate to avoid any future troubles.
After everything was taken care of, there should be no more collusion with Tang Moon-ho, and there should be no more being recruited by the enemy to attack Han Bin and his party.
If there was ever an enemy in the court, it would have to become a seed that would cause a rebellion.
Perhaps they will be suspicious of each other.
In addition, the unpleasant feeling he had when he went to deliver the bribe to the county magistrate was enough to leave a bold mark on the death list in Hanbin’s mind.
Hanbin looked around.
There were also a few commoners who were not officials, and they all seemed to be holding back laughter.
In other words, it was evidence that he deserved to die.
While everyone was making a fuss, Hanbin said nonchalantly.
“Then, from now on, I will reveal the first group I mentioned. I have already figured out the culprit.”
“Is that true? If it’s the first time, then you’re trying to make enemies with the Murim and the government… .”
Hyunbi was left speechless.
Because there was a commotion somewhere.
“Catch him!”
“Surround them all!”
“Please provide support quickly… … .”
The cries came from where they were protecting the addicted woman.
The embarrassed Hyeonbi asked.
“Have you come here to get rid of the witness?”
“That’s not true.”
Hanbin waved his hand nonchalantly.
The two guards escorting the queen drew their swords and looked around cautiously.
At that moment, a soldier came running urgently to Jang-hu.
“We’re in big trouble.”
“Report.”
“The witness ran away.”
“What does that mean?”
“That, that witness suddenly got up and escaped through the siege.”
“Report accurately. Are you saying that the enemy did not come to harm the witness, but that the witness ran away?”
“Yes, that’s right. The witness regained consciousness, subdued the soldiers, and disappeared.”
“hmm.”
Jang-hu looked at the envoy of Cheongun, Han-bin, with an embarrassed expression.
Hanbin met her gaze and smiled sincerely.
Hyunbi intervened at that sight.
“Master, do you have any idea?”
“In fact, I already knew that the addicted woman was one of the culprits.”
“What do you mean?”
“Actually, I knew what was going to happen today in advance.”
“Oh, really… … .”
“It’s a bit long, but I’ll explain it slowly. The Tang Moon-ho here came to see me a while ago. So… … .”
Hanbin spoke quickly, with a constant tone and pace, as if he had a millstone attached to his mouth.
Of course, it was a mixture of truth and lies.
