134: Once removed and seen (7)

CIA Director’s Office Langley, Virginia, USA.

“Huh! To wipe out a single mafia organization and suffer so much… What exactly is the cause?”

“That . . . has not been grasped yet.”

Standing in front of the CIA director, Chris Walker had nothing to say. He was also baffled by this absurd situation.

When the director called him, he had no choice but to clench his teeth. It was because he had no information in his hands to suit the taste of his boss, who was quick in political calculations.

“under! The White House has issued an order to suspend the operation immediately, and the president is calling for an immediate resolution on this incident… but it’s still not understood… Are you telling me to look at this now?”

The director reclined the chair back and loosened his tie. The pressure he was under was so great that he needed even the slightest breath.

“…the best agents were armed with the latest equipment. The damage situation is too great to conclude that it was just a blow caused by the resistance of the mafia…, a more detailed investigation is needed…”

“But why is Apache stuck? One of these is more than 30 million dollars, right?”

“We are here to test the latest equipment. We hired an Apache to test our CNI (Communications, Navigation, and Identification avionics system) and data link integration system that shares all information on the battlefield in real time.”

“CNI…?”

“Yes, it is a plan to introduce the data link capability of the F-22 or F-35 to the ground forces. The Ministry of Defense strongly insisted on the need for testing . . .”

“We put it into action… without our permission…?”

“I asked for your understanding in advance, but…”

At the remarks of the deputy director, Chris, the director shook his head and strongly refused. Whatever was true, it was a sign that it should never go that way.

Deputy Director Chris kept his eyes on him and was very nervous. If he doesn’t act wisely now, his public life will come to an end.

“Who approved it, I don’t even remember hearing about it…?”

“By mutual agreement between the parties . . .”

Chris didn’t say he had verbally approved it. He, like his boss, wanted him to finish on the subordinate line.

“Cut him right now! And we do it with something we’ve never approved. The responsibility rests entirely with the Department of Defense. Of course, the responsibility for the damage lies with the major, or whatever. Do you know what I mean?”

“Yep! We will act quickly.”

Chris answered firmly. This made it clear on which line to cut the case.

He had to go down this road and manipulate the events in great detail. Even if the facts of this manipulation are revealed, the director will be treated as if he did not know until the end.

“And after that… what was the name of this research project?”

“It’s called the Warrior Project.”

“Yeah, this Warrior project is going to be completely scrapped. I think there was another plan similar to this in my memory…?”

“A project to develop a combat suit using artificial muscles was going on together.”

“Yeah, that! We just pushed it. The damage in this case is to be minimized as much as possible. If the truth was reported to the President, both you and I would disagree. Apache over New York… Shit! How did you get up here, you can’t go back like this. And that’s because they’re trying to catch up on the absurd experiments of the Ministry of Defense guys. Isn’t it?”

“of course. We will take measures to ensure that such a story does not come up again.”

“Yeah, very good! So that’s my right arm. haha! Oh, and make sure to express your gratitude to Miss Linda, who has been hurt this time. Whether it’s appealing to her patriotism, or taking care of her series of conveniences, you should never let her protest. On the day it even gets into the ears of the president… If I don’t tell you any more, will you understand?”

Even in private, the director was speechless. Such tone of voice will be evidence that no clear instructions were given at the hearing.

“yes! I will take care of it myself.”

“Yeah, the Pentagon bastards keep rebelling against our leadership. Let’s give them a definite edge over them right now. This is what we specialize in. Shouldn’t amateurs who can only shoot guns like that play with one hand?”

“of course. I will make sure to do that.”

“I am also the deputy chief. You should also come up to this place. When I settle down in the White House. haha!”

“Call me just for a second.”

Chris answered the phone with a puzzled expression on his face. He had told his secretary not to contact him unless it was really urgent.

But then the call came. An ominous feeling came over me and I couldn’t ignore the phone.

And his prediction came true. Hearing the secretary’s urgent voice, his face turned to earthen color in an instant.

“Chief, the DOD bastards have intercepted Major Frank’s recruits.”

“What, didn’t we say we arrived first?”

“Yeah, we got there first, but they say they forced him to come from there.”

“no! Bring him back by any means. Even if you eat bean rice, you have to feed it from our side. It’s possible that the Ministry of National Defense guys can catch our weakness. We can’t let our organization’s success or failure depend on his snout. Do you know what I’m talking about?”

The excited director slammed the desk with his fist. With her reddened face, he stared at Chris with intense eyes.

He was telling with just his eyes that the result of this incident had even caught his neck. Like his boss, Chris himself had no intention of stopping here.

He blinked once without saying a word. Seeing that look, the director looked at him without saying a word and motioned for him to leave. The follow-up to take place from now on was solely the authority and responsibility of the deputy director.

Cheol-woo and Linda, both dressed in suits, finished dinner at a hot Korean restaurant these days. The restaurant’s popular menu was Sundubu Jjigae.

The taste of Sundubu Jjigae, which is said to be captivating the taste buds of New Yorkers these days, was just the same as the one eaten at a nearby restaurant. The only unusual thing was that the kimchi served as a side dish was better than the local restaurant.

Is it because it’s not made in China? Linda also devoured the kimchi with her chopsticks clumsy to see if it fit in her mouth.

After eating, the two crossed the Brooklyn Bridge and headed to a place called ‘River Cafe’. The night view of Manhattan from Brooklyn across the river was spectacular.

In the cool river breeze, the two sat in the park next to the bridge and enjoyed the night view of the city. She had a look of great satisfaction as she sat with Cheol-woo on a park bench, holding a takeout coffee in her hand, like an ordinary lover.

“It’s the first time I’m doing this in a place like this at this hour.”

“Where have you been playing?”

“Actually, this is a very dangerous neighborhood. Even in New York State, robbery and murder… well, anyway, bad crime is common.”

“Gee, then we should run into the cafe quickly. Huh!”

“But it’s a beautiful landscape to run away from. I am so happy now that I am doing this with you.”

Linda came deeper into his chest. He wrapped one hand around her shoulder, sipping her coffee with the other, admiring the stunning Manhattan night view.

“It’s an honor to be with you in your first experience… Let’s take this opportunity more often in the future. we···.”

“As long as it’s okay with you… I like it anytime.”

In an instant, a strange expression appeared on her face. Then she lifted her lips from under his chest.

Looking at the twinkling eyes in the light, he found her lips too. At that moment, it felt like there were only the two of us in the world.

The two fell in love with each other so much that they did not know how much time had passed. Had it not been for the sirens of police cars passing over the bridge, this moment might have gone on forever.

Licking her lips at the same time, she rested her head on his shoulder. Her hand stroked his chest, and her eyes dimmed as if lost in old memories.

“Dad was always nervous. He was so much that even my young eyes could see it . . .”

“Why?”

“Dad was always challenged by someone and threatened by more powerful people. If we overcame such crises with difficulty, another competitor continued to appear…”

“I thought I would never date a business man. I decided to do that from a very young age. But I’m sure I’ll be that businessman… Huh!”

“Why are you afraid?”

“any···.”

“Then shall we run away? You can go to a place no one knows about and live a very normal life.”

“Ho Ho! That’s a great idea. However ···.”

She shook her head slightly. Like a monk humbly accepting her fate, her eyes were full of despair.

“I am already used to this kind of life. Even if we live a completely different life, I think living the way we are now and the difficulties will be similar for both.”

“Well, you don’t know until you live, don’t you?”

“I guess I am a coward. I see you are afraid of both. If I run a business, I feel like I will be under pressure, and I am afraid because I am unfamiliar with ordinary life…”

“Are you afraid of business because someone might threaten you?”

“No, I’m afraid I’ll ruin what my father built. Maybe he was afraid that running away would have the same result.”

She leaned against him, straining her whole body. She felt as if she had been crushed by the weight of her destiny just to think about it.

He kissed her forehead lightly and hugged her tightly. Her strong tightening of her power felt cozy to her.

“Linda. Your father did great with his bare hands. But he didn’t get to where no one could see it. If you’re just going to keep what you have, you’ll probably end up with the same thing as your father.”

“Then what should I do?”

She lifted her head and looked up at him. She was the only one in her world who gave her her power now.

“You have to be way ahead of everyone else. I don’t even dare to follow up… Then there will be no one to put pressure on you. Touching the pinnacle of a field means they have to risk everything they have.”

“Can I be that? As you said, it would be a road no one has ever taken.”

“I’ll walk with you by your side… It would be much more meaningful to be in pain while hitting forward than to just stand there blankly and suffer.”

She understood in her head, but her expression did not reach her heart. She was a natural response to those who did not make it through the rough battlefield.

He smiled and kissed her forehead again. Whether she understands her or not, he was sure to put her on top of her.

And at that moment, the Warrior made an urgent report.

[The CIA seems to have decided to get rid of the garbage. It has been uploaded to their data network as a top-class confidential material.]

The rubbish was Major Frank’s identification code. It was a code name given by Cheol-woo to express his will to never let him go well.

Since connecting to the military satellite, Godfather, the Warrior has had no trace of access to virtually any data in the United States. Godfather, pushing the US as a new strategic resource, was closely connected with many networks.

Because the Warrior planted backdoors in Godfather and various networks, he could investigate information without a trace at any time. In terms of information, Cheol-woo has come to stand in the same position as the President of the United States.

‘How is Frank now?’

[You are under arrest by the U.S. Naval Criminal Investigation Service (NCIS). It will be transported through Newark Airport tomorrow.]

‘The CIA was just looking at it?’

[There are no special plans yet, but it seems that a special team will be formed under the direction of the deputy director.]

Even as he shared a deep kiss with Linda, Cheol-woo’s brain ran violently. He could hear her exhilarating groan as he moved his hand, but his head was as cold as his warm chest.

‘Tomorrow, I will kill him with my own hands. Check his movement closely.’

Cheol-woo was planning to kill Major Frank himself. His actions aimed at Linda were absolutely unforgivable.

In addition, it was intended to convey the meaning of a warning to each institution. No matter how strong an organization was, the individual was bound to be weak.

If they show destructive power in a realm they cannot grasp, their thoughts will naturally shrink. He was convinced that he had already used such a strategy.

‘Any other news?’

He jumped up from his seat holding her while talking to the Warrior. Her body, as hot as her cold hair, was begging her to go to the hotel.
