Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1499



Only Noblemtl

1499. You are under arrest for violating Article 66 of the Public Security Management Punishment Act.

A ten-character poem by Jang Wan-gu.

Italian restaurant Floris.

Early evening.

A young man and woman are sitting across from each other, eating pasta, in a reserved seat by the window with a good view.

Judging from the polite conversation and the subtle look in their eyes, it seemed like they were having a flirtatious relationship.

The two laughed and chimed in whenever the other said something.

As the meal was coming to an end, the man, Moon-gang, spoke as he passed by.

“Is Hongryeon Store having a hard time these days?”

“Yes, I think there have been some problems with our business partners recently. How did you know about that?”

Song Yeon-bi, the accountant at Hongryeon Trading Company, didn’t hide it because it wasn’t a big trade secret.

“Since our company is also in the distribution industry, we hear a lot of things.”

“Oh my, did that rumor reach Glatt?”

Song Yeon-bi looked at Moon-gang with slightly surprised eyes.

Glatt is a large European distribution company that has entered China, and Moon-gang is a sales representative there.

Compared to Glatt, Hongryeon Store was like a hole-in-the-wall store.

It was a bit surprising that the story of Hongryeon Trading Company flowed into such a Glatt.

“First of all, we do have a small amount of alcohol in our portfolio. We often hear stories from related industries.”

“I see. Then do you know what the problem is? Maybe it’s because I’m a low-ranking employee, but everyone keeps quiet in front of me.”

“Hmm, I don’t know if I should tell you.”

As Moon Kang took a step back, Song Yeon-bi leaned forward as if curious.

“If you know, please tell me. I feel so frustrated because I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t know. Is this going to lead to our company going under? That won’t do… … .”

Hongryeon Sanghoe is a liquor distribution company.

Of course, if you can’t deliver alcohol to your business partners on time, you have to close down.

There have been many distribution companies that have emerged and disappeared in that way.

Song Yeon-bi, a salaried worker, wanted to know what problems were occurring at her company.

“I really shouldn’t say this… … .”

“What is it?”

“Ms. Yeonbi… … do you know what kind of place Hongryeon Store is?”

“Well, it’s a mainstream distributor, right?”

“In a word, it’s the liquor business. And you know that it’s hard for ordinary people to sell liquor, right?”

“yes?”

If ordinary people do business, then who will do it?

As Song Yeon-bi blinked, Moon-gang lowered his voice slightly and spoke.

“Behind Hongryeon Trading Company, there is Samhaphoe.”

“oh!”

Song Yeon-bi already knew, but she pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth with her hand.

Because I want to look good to the man in front of me.

Moon Kang continued speaking in a slightly proud tone.

“You didn’t know. The distribution of the mainstream of 10-word poems is completely controlled by the 10-word poem black society. However, Hongryeon Sanghoe is trying to secure its own business partners. As a result, the 10-word poem black society and Hongryeon Sanghoe are going crazy!”

Moon Kang clapped his two fists together in front of his face.

“Really? I didn’t know.”

It is true that you said you didn’t know.

It was impossible for a mere accountant to know such advanced information.

“But the Triads are not allowed to officially enter mainland China. The police will arrest them right away. So even if they come to help, they will be a very small number. Haven’t you seen someone you haven’t seen before at Honglian Trading Company recently?”

Ten-character poem, thatched arrow area.

Sipansi Baejudaegok Co., Ltd.

Three people sat facing each other in the president’s office on the top floor of a 15-story building.

Baejudaegok Co., Ltd. CEO Ma Hwa-dong, Dongbang Kyungho CEO Oh Roe, and Sagajeongtam’s employee Moon Kang.

Most of China’s historic black society has come out into the open.

For example, Baejudaegok was founded by Jangrakbang, and Dongbanggyeongho was founded by Cheonmubang.

Jangrakbang and Cheonmubang were factions that controlled the East and West of Sipun Night, and had temporarily formed an alliance to block the advance of the Samhaphoe into Sipun.

However, the detective agency Sagajeongtam was not a member of the underworld, but was from the public security.

Five days ago, Jang Rak Bang and Cheon Mu Bang asked Saga Jeong Tam to investigate Hongryeon Trading Company in order to avoid the eyes of the Samhaphoe.

And today we are finally gathered to hear the results.

“… … So far, there has only been one person who has entered Hongryeon Trading Company from the outside. He is the nephew of Jin Gwa-wol, a man named Yeon Jeok-ha. He is from Hefei and is twenty-five years old. He is not a member of the Triad and has zero Dimensional Power, so he is an ordinary person.”

Along with the words, Moon Kang spread out about a dozen photos of Yeonjeokha on the table.

Ma Hwa-dong and Oroe, who were looking at the photo, soon lost interest and threw it on the table.

Moon Kang continued speaking.

“We wiretapped Hongryeon Sanghoe for five days. They also installed wiretapping prevention equipment, so we couldn’t know the content, but there were three calls with Hong Kong. However, it seems that they didn’t receive any reinforcements, so they couldn’t receive support from the Hongryeon Bang headquarters. In fact, after checking with the police, we found that there were no people of interest related to the triad among those who entered the country through Shiyan Zhaoyang International Airport.”

Even though his opponents were the leaders of the underworld, Moon Kang’s attitude was full of kindness.

This is because the public security and the underworld have a close relationship that has been forged over a long period of time through money.

After exchanging glances with Dongbang Kyungho Oroe, the president of Baegokdaeju Ma Hwadong spoke briefly.

“You’ve worked hard. I’ll go out and take a look.”

“Yes. Oh, by the way, our boss said there will be a crackdown on red-light districts this week. Please take note of this when you are enjoying your entertainment.”

“Haha, I see. Tell him I said thank you.”

“Okay, that’s it.”

Moon Kang got up from his seat, bowed to the two people, and left the president’s office.

The president of Mahwadong Baekgokdaeju spoke first.

“As expected, the Hongryeonbang main family will probably not get involved. They say that long nights bring many dreams. Let’s wrap this up before Hongryeon Trading Company brings in the ten-word mutants.”

However, Oroe, the president of Dongbang Security, did not readily agree.

“There’s a weirdo who subdued Ma Jang-cheong and his men. Wouldn’t it be better to find out who he is and why he was involved before proceeding?”

“It was probably just a passing mutation. There aren’t any mutations of that level around Hongryeon Trading Company. The best master of Hongryeon Trading Company is Jin Gwa-wol.”

Oroe couldn’t refute it.

Given the circumstances, it seems like Ma Hwa-dong’s words are correct.

If the monster had been related to Hongryeon Trading Company, it would have been caught on the radar of the Sagajeongtamp.

Sagajeongtam was not just any detective agency, but was also like a gathering place for the Hubei Provincial Police Agency.

They recruited public security officers from Hubei Province by any means necessary when they were laid off or retired.

So, when Sagajeongtam says, ‘There was no one who came from outside,’ it means there was no one.

The mouth of the ore, which had been tightly shut like a clam, opened.

“So what is Ma Daein’s plan?”

“How about doing something that’s a bit like doing something undercover for the first time in a while? While the police are busy cracking down on the entertainment district, we’re going to do something quick and dirty… … .”

A sinister smile appeared on the face of Ma Hwa-dong, the president of Baegokdaeju and the head of Jangrakbang.

After visiting Hyeonmyo Hall, I walked around Jangwangu with a relaxed mind.

This time, unlike when I was looking for a Taoist temple, I just went wherever my feet took me.

At first, I started by visiting large buildings, starting with hospitals and libraries, and then going all the way to government offices, if they seemed interesting.

As time went by, it started to get dark and the ground started to get misty.

As evening fell, the city changed beyond recognition, as if a woman had put on makeup.

I kept turning my head left and right in the middle of the bustling downtown area.

I’m so dazzled by the dazzling signs that I can’t even come to my senses.

As he walked away with a blank expression, a middle-aged man approached him quietly and spoke to him.

“Little brother, are you alone?”

“yes.”

“How about some amazing drinks and girls? If you’re going alone, the basic price is 500 yuan (about 92,000 won). You can choose the girls you like.”

“Choice?”

“You can choose.”

“Ah! That’s fine. What if it’s just alcohol? I don’t plan on drinking with the young lady next to me.”

“You don’t like girls. Then you can just drink alcohol. Other places sell fake alcohol, but this store only sells the real thing. If you just drink alcohol, the basic price is two hundred yuan (36,000 won).”

When Yeonjeokha made an ambiguous face, the man suddenly grabbed her arm and dragged her.

“Follow me. I’m telling you this. I’m introducing you to someone because you look good. Anyone else wouldn’t be able to do it. People with bad looks are out of my league.”

“Ah… … It won’t work… … .”

However, she did not reject the man she was in love with.

I must have found a way to meet Gucheonhyeonnyeo, and I’m going to drink alcohol with a light heart for once.

The place that the middle-aged man, Du-sun, headed to was a famous red-light district even in the Shi-eon area.

As I entered the alley, I flinched as the smell of urine and beer wafted towards me.

This was the smell I used to smell when I passed by a brothel in the past.

The smell was more pungent than before, and for a moment, my stomach churned.

“Sir, are you sure you’re going to the bar?”

“That’s right, you can just drink alcohol. The liquor in that house is real, and the liquor in other places is almost always fake. You’re lucky to have met me today. Where is your house?”

Doosun quickly changed the subject before the young man could become suspicious.

“It’s a joint expense.”

“Hey! You came from far away. Thank your ancestors for meeting me. I will make this a night you will never forget.”

I shook my head in disbelief at the man’s boasting.

I don’t know why the people who play on this floor, past or present, are so similar.

The man stopped in front of a building that had a sign showing a naked woman.

The sign that Yeonjeok-ha saw before following the man inside read, ‘Perfect Heaven [完美天堂].’

“What is that?”

“He’s a drunk. He’s passed out from drinking so much.”

“You think I asked because I didn’t know? Did you verify my identity?”

“No. I have some money in my wallet, but I don’t have any ID.”

“Wake me up right now.”

“I woke him up a while ago, but he won’t wake up.”

“He’s not dead?”

“You were breathing?”

“Then pour some water on him. Are you going to carry the criminal on your back? If you can’t wake him up, I’ll make you carry him.”

At the words of Second Class Police Sergeant Im Cho-yeon (equivalent to a police superintendent in Korea), First Class Police Sergeant Mo Kang-jun (equivalent to a police superintendent in Korea) gritted his teeth.

It’s already disgusting to follow the orders of Im Cho-yeon, who’s only twenty-five years old, but carrying a bastard who’s become a fool?

What if I do that too?

Mo Kang-jun, annoyed, approached the young man and raised his hand.

The idea is to wake him up by slapping him in the face.

But then, just then, the young man suddenly opened his eyes.

Mo Kang-jun slowly lowered his arm and spoke to the young man.

“You are under arrest for violating Article 66 of the Public Security Administration Punishment Act. You don’t have any identification in your possession. What are your name and civil identification number?”

Yeon-jeok, who was looking up at the man with a bewildered face, hurriedly got up.

The soft blanket slid down, revealing her naked upper body.

Yeon-jeok, startled by this, hurriedly pulled up the blanket and looked around.

In this new room, there are faces I’ve never seen before.

When I declined the helper, a woman named Madame came up to me and poured me a few drinks.

I ate it as it went down my throat, but when I opened my eyes, I was in an unfamiliar room?

“Where am I? Why am I here?”

Mo Kang-jun answered the young man’s question.

“This is a motel operated by Perfect Heaven. You were caught engaging in prostitution with a girl named Won So-mi. Now, would you please answer my questions?”

I turned my head to where the man’s finger was pointing.

A woman I had never seen before was sitting on the edge of the bed, pouting.
