Episode 161. Many (3)

Kang-soo clinked the glasses together and put them down again. The same was true of Park In-soo from the side.

“Aren’t the two managers eating?”

“I can’t.”

It was because each had to take care of Yoo So-hyun and Hong Ah-jin.

“ah… … .”

“I’m fine, so you can eat without worrying about it.”

“sorry. I asked to go with you… . I hadn’t even thought of it this far.”

Lim Seung-hyeok expressed his sincere apologetic expression. Of course, I tried to talk about a designated driver, but it was difficult to recommend even the suggestion of changing the manager’s duties.

“It’s really fine.”

In the meantime, Kim Jae-jin, who had gone out the door for a while, came in after finishing the call.

“Whoa— it’s done.”

“For what?”

“This new product advertisement proposal was changed by the company and requested approval. I was checking it out.”

“It’s a lot of trouble. So why are you taking on the position of head of marketing?”

As the story of the two came and went, everyone seemed to know the relationship between the two well.

Except for the river.

At this, Kang-soo made a slightly questionable expression, and Yoo So-hyun noticed and carefully asked.

“Mr. Kangsu, don’t you know about Director Kim Jae-jin? You are from the Damseong Electronics family. Seunghyuk oppa runs LIM Foods.”

Earlier, I only heard that he was the head of marketing at Damsung Electronics. So, it was difficult for Kangsu to know if there was a relationship with the company’s family.

“That’s why people swear at me for being a singer with a golden spoon.”

“Your brother must have been a bit rude.”

As we are close friends, we talked while laughing.

In the meantime, Kang-soo had something on his mind.

“then… If you have a brother… … ?”

“I have an older brother.”

“Is your name Jaejoon Kim?”

“you’re right. I guess you’ve heard that name before.”

Kim Jae-joon was the eldest son of the Damseong Electronics family and the first priority successor. He was talented and had a good personality, so his younger brother Kim Jae-jin had no complaints about him.

People around him were sure that Kim Jae-joon, who was not a professional manager, would take over as the next chairman of Damseong.

“Ah— I do.”

I’ve definitely heard of it. But I heard it from the future, not the present.

It was from Choi Yun-ho who had climbed the mountain.

“How is Damseong Electronics doing? Kim Jae-joon died in an accident and stumbled. Even the company is staggering. My stock is right—!”

It wasn’t the voice that came to my mind. It was because the words of Choi Yun-ho, who was talking about stocks at the time, lingered.

Of course, I also heard how Jaejun Kim died.

“if… no.”

Kangsu stopped talking. If Kim Jae-joon died at the time, the second son, Kim Jae-jin, would have inherited Damseong Electronics.

And Kangsu was used to this kind of repertoire. It’s because this is how Savnak of Bluton Reform moved to devour companies in Korea.

“Why is that?”

“I just thought I would remember something, but I forgot.”

A light drinking party followed, and it didn’t take long before it was over.

“Next time, I really want to have a drink with manager Han Kang-soo.”

“I hope you can contact me when it’s okay!”

Whether Kim Jae-jin or Lim Seung-hyuk were interested in Kang-soo didn’t seem false.

“If possible, I will.”

“A must!”

After seeing them off in front of the store, we headed to the public parking lot.

A few days later.

As soon as Kang-soo heard that Gong Chi-young had come from Naju, he went to visit him after work. Of course, I also asked about Damseong Electronics before that.

Upon entering the PC room, Simon and Teresa entered the secret room first.

“There is nothing particularly different about the people around Damseong Electronics’ Marketing Manager Kim Jae-jin. The current secretary is also an employee who has always been in the secretarial office.”

“You mean nothing was manipulated?”

It was because Woo Joon-jun, Na Jun-ho, and Seo Myung-won had secretaries from mercenaries such as Savnak and Scarlet Knights by their side.

All of them got their hands on the corporation or moved for some purpose.

Kangsu remembered Damseong Electronics only through his memory, not Choi Yunho’s voice, which sometimes resonated in his head. And there, the death of Kim Jae-joon, the eldest son of Damseong Electronics, was a car accident.

‘Is it really just an accident that there is no connection?’

While the worries continued, Gong Chi-young opened the work first.

“You’re thinking of them the other day, aren’t you? But there is no specific situation. Did you find anything suspicious?”

“… Not really.”

Na Jun-ho, who was shot and killed, was in the dog car class from the beginning.

On the other hand, Woo Joon-jun and Seo Seo-won thoroughly hide themselves, but when they see them in person, they strangely hide themselves. Of course, if you are sensitive to precipitation or something like that, you could notice it.

And Kim Jae-jin had no strange signs. First of all, I treated people innocently like Lim Seung-hyuk.

“Shall we find out more?”

“no. Once there… . I guess I’ll have to get in touch with Jennifer Han to find out more about the Bluton Reform.”

“It was dangerous. I agree with that idea.”

I also thought about river water for a long time. Bluton Reform must have had a big change as the hideout in Paris, France was robbed. Even if I tried to find another place, I didn’t know if it was already empty or a bigger trap would be waiting.

“Have you found any other areas with the information I sent you?”

“There is a record of information being sent to Poland, England, Moldova, Romania, Congo, Mozambique, etc. The password was the same as the one I used before, so I checked it… that is… … .”

As Gong Chi-young paused, he looked at Kang-soo, Teresa, and Simon with more concentration.

“I think they bought orphans from Romania, Congo, and Mozambique.”

“… orphanage?”

In an instant, something came to Kangsu’s mind.

「DGI Project」

Developed Gene Inherit.

It was a psycho act that was named the project, which means ‘inheritance of developed genes’.

In response, Kangsu asked slowly, just in case.

“if… Are all those children girls?”

“wait for a sec-“

Gong Chi-young began to dig deep into the data. Her fingernails were almost healed now, so she could type without difficulty.

tatata— tatak—

“no. Most of them are boys.”

“So it’s not a DGI project?”

It was possible to guess what Kang-soo was thinking about just by saying that. Simon had also heard the explanation, so he knew how serious the project was.

In the meantime, Simon raised an opinion.

“Could you say Aren’t Savnak and Scarlet Knights the children?”

Kang Soo suddenly connected and asked Gong Chi-Young.

“When did the children pass over? First and last.”

“hmm… The record is over 20 years old. The latest was 4 years ago. If you look at the term, it seems to be once every three or four years. If there is a previous record that hasn’t been left, I can’t find out that far.”

I couldn’t be relieved to see that there was no girl among the children right away.

It is possible to take an adult woman, not a child, and use it as a surrogate mother for the experiment.

“Where is the location?”

“I did find it… … .”

“As soon as they knew that the flies had been robbed, they would have moved from their location. There, I will find out through someone else.”

“if… … .”

For a moment, Gong Chi-yeong noticed Teresa.

It was because Kang-soo had only one personal connection that he could recognize.

It was Nightwing.

Then Teresa calmly looked around at Kang-su, Gong Chi-young, and Simon and said,

“That Soo is the Night River? Do I know?”

“… how? Since when did you know?”

Theresa was dumbfounded by Gong Chi-young’s question.

“As far as I know Simon, if Soo has only one skill, isn’t he? Besides, the time when Soo came over to Ejisto and the time when Night River disappeared are similar.”

It was something Teresa calculated and guessed.

Hearing her words, Kangsu felt a little embarrassed.

“… Sorry.”

“it’s okay. I’m just grateful for avenging my parents’ enmity. And now that they’re not gone yet, I can pay them back myself.”

Contrary to the always bright exterior, on the inside, it was sharpening multiple blades.

It was the same for Kangsu and others.

“The future will be the real beginning.”

When the long-awaited explanation was about to come out, Gong Chi-young threw a question.

“Then how are you going to approach it? You don’t want to just run into it, do you?”

“There are situations where the conditions are just right.”

“What conditions?”

“The conditions to openly approach them. Who can inherit the company’s shares… … .”

The other three thought briefly and recalled it at once.

“Are you trying to publicly reveal that you are your father’s son?”

“That hasn’t happened until now. It’s also for Soo’s mother.”

“… … .”

Only Simon could not throw the right words.

Seeing this, Kangsu let out a short sigh.

“Of course father… I’ll start off by giving a consultation to CEO Jin Soo-hyeok. Because what I want to do is also to use Jinyeon Group.”

“You explained how much the other day.”

“I should do more.”

It was because Jennifer Han was the fastest way to access Bluton Reform right away.

Thinking about this, Simon opened his mouth.

“Should I approach you? I don’t know if I can get anything out of it if it’s not directly.”

It might be possible with Simon’s disguise and improvisation.

However, Kang-soo was almost in danger due to a trap set by Jennifer Han with Teresa before.

“no. Now they’ll be watching more closely than ever. Rather, I think it would be better to approach them in a state where they will not be suspicious.”

“Does that create an external identity?”

“I think it will be best right now.”

“… But isn’t it possible to become a bait yourself?”

Silence flows for a while around such a question.

They built a temple and even an arsenal in Korea. The damage wouldn’t be small if it was revealed clumsily to those guys.

Of course, Kangsu knew that fact better than anyone else.

“I have to bear it. It would be nice if there was no risk at all, but we have already crossed the line of being able to do that.”

“affection… Is it not okay?”

Since Simon joined in the middle, he had no idea what he had been through before. So there were some that didn’t feel as big as others about the size of the risk.

“It’s not possible.”

“okay. I understand what you mean, so do it.”

Kang Soo nodded at Simon’s answer, which he finally understood.

“Chiyoung keeps analyzing the information. The location coordinates from there will tell you right away.”

“don’t worry.”

“Teresa protects Chi-Young and allows her to move in case of an emergency.”

“Ok.”

Kangsu looked at Simon for the last time.

“Simon can move as a backup, as you have done so far.”

“Isn’t it better to be around? There would be a greater chance of being caught if they were double-tailed.”

“I don’t know how it will settle right now, so a backup is all I need.”

The assignment has been sorted out.

Kang-soo decided to visit Jin Soo-hyeok for a full-fledged plan. At the same time, he took out a cannon phone that Gong Chi-young had opened and took it with him.

After hesitating for a while, I dialed a number on my phone and sent a message.

“GA-HH-ZY-LM-Z”

It was in the same way as the code he had sent to Theresa before.

Then, less than five minutes after the transmission was completed, the phone rang.
