There is no villain in my return 118

News of Cha Jeong-sik’s suicide shook the political world.

The incumbent mayor of Seoul died after smoking briquettes in his car.

The note neatly placed next to the body admitted all his wrongdoings and apologized to everyone.

The dead don’t speak, but the corpses they leave behind are enough for those left behind to enjoy the party.

After a brief period of mourning, efforts began to move behind the scenes to find those involved in the case, starting with the search for the next Seoul mayor.

There was a period of political turmoil, and when things quieted down again, many people had had their fill.

“The father killed the son.”

Choi Ji-sang, who knows all the secrets, spoke as if he were muttering.

Because I don’t know much about Geumosan.

Because he was a son, he died a peaceful death.

“Sometimes there are families that are better than others.”

“Can you deal with someone so heartless?”

“Of course. Rather, it was easier to understand because he was that kind of person.”

“I don’t understand that point any more. In my view, you are the complete opposite of a person.”

“I?”

Choi Ji-sang nodded.

After his return, I have been watching him more closely than anyone else.

I never thought that Choi Ji-sang would say something like that about Shin-woo.

“You saved me at great risk and even burned all the debt documents.”

“Even if I have it, I don’t need to use it.”

“I donate anonymously every year, and when people around me have problems, I am the first to step forward and help them.”

It was the same when Lee Yeon-ji was kidnapped by a modeling agency, and when she scolded Yang Do-gi, the CEO of Gold Earth.

Most recently, he dealt with the SkyTer multi-level marketing company and Kim Jin-pyo, who was known for sexual harassment and abuse.

In Choi Ji-sang’s eyes, Shin-woo is the kindest and most gentle person of all.

I thought it was just overshadowed by his sharp appearance and cool demeanor.

“Sometimes I wondered why you pushed yourself so hard, but now I understand.”

“me?”

“Yeah. There are so many bad people in the world. That’s why you can’t rest.”

Shinwoo burst into laughter without realizing it.

Since returning, I’ve thought that I’m the only one who can see into other people’s minds.

It was a mistake.

The person who was observing himself the best was Choi Ji-sang, who was right next to him.

He said, slapping the muscles of his thick arms.

“If you have a hard time, tell me anytime. I do my share too.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

After returning, I thought I was the only one who could change the world.

But as time passed, this thinking changed little by little.

People always interact.

When you do good, it spreads far and wide and comes back to you one day.

‘I didn’t know that in my past life.’

Shinwoo decided to write the word ‘happiness’ in small letters next to his goal of revenge.

Because unlike revenge, happiness can be shared by everyone.

After Kim Jin-pyo took off his clothes, his gaze towards Shin-woo changed.

He was not just a military judge advocate, but a military prosecutor who stripped the general of his uniform.

Wherever he went, military officers watched him closely and tried to fix any problems that arose.

Thanks to that, Shinwoo has nothing to do.

“How can it be so quiet just because one executive took off his clothes?”

“That officer was the nominee for the Minister of National Defense. Everyone who was holding Kim Jin-pyo back has fallen one after another, and the rest are hiding. And especially…….”

Yu Yeon-na glanced at Shin-woo.

“Our junior became famous as a mad dog.”

It was because he threw Kim Jin-pyo, who was causing a ruckus in the courtroom.

Shinwoo’s words telling the fallen man to go to prison to rehabilitate spread among the military police.

“Anyway, it’ll be quiet for a while. But don’t let yourself get too relaxed and start drinking or perming. There will be a lot of eyes watching you.”

“all right.”

Ji Sung-gu was spared punishment due to leniency.

The burn wound was so large that he had to stay in the hospital for quite some time, but he should be satisfied with just saving his life.

He became very quiet, perhaps because he almost died.

After the storm came calm.

Shinwoo’s daily life is the same.

Since I had some free time, I spent some time with my mother, whom I had not been able to pay attention to for a while.

I went to Cheon-ah Park, took a walk with Lee Yeon-su, and ate delicious food.

“I saw the news. It was so glamorous. I think I’ll be successful if I stay in the military.”

“That’s too much praise.”

“But let me ask you one thing. Why was it Seoul Mayor Cha Jeong-sik?”

Geummusan hid his private life even from Lee Yeonsu, who was like a mother to him.

He doesn’t know that he is the hidden son of Geummusan.

“Cha Jeong-sik’s original name is Geum Jeong-sik. Unlike his father, he left home 20 years ago to pursue a career in politics.”

“I see.”

If it were the original history, he would be running as the next presidential candidate and dominating the political world of South Korea.

Just as Joseon was played by the Min family a long time ago, there is no reason why the Republic of Korea should not do the same to the Geum family.

“If it’s Geummusan, even my own blood relatives get in my way, I will remove them without hesitation.”

Lee Yeon-su recalled a memory from a very long time ago.

Geum Musan’s daughter-in-law and Geum Min-jun and Geum Na-yeon’s mother once came to see Lee Yeon-su.

He wants to escape from Geummusan’s grasp, so he asks for help.

“They say Geummusan is trying to raise his son and daughter just like himself. The children, who used to be very affectionate, are now competing with each other and even turning their mother against them.”

Her husband, Geum Jeong-sik, did not dare to talk back to Geum Musan and acted like a puppet.

When Lee Yeon-su realized that he could not help her, she tried to run away to a foreign country where no one knew her.

But before even arriving at the airport, he was dragged into the house by Director Sung and his staff.

After a long time, I heard that she had committed suicide.

“Geum Jeong-sik said he left home for politics, but in reality he ran away.”

There is no human being without emotions.

Desire is also an emotion, and within it is a complex mixture of love and obsession.

“Geummusan acts like a cold-blooded man who doesn’t feel fear, but deep down, it’s hidden.”

“Maybe so.”

In Shinwoo’s mind, an old, twisted, and tall-looking Geummusan Mountain appeared.

Geummusan was clearly weakened at that time.

But what Shinwoo wants is not to punish him for being weak.

‘My target is Geummusan, who is full of poison and doesn’t know how to reflect.’

I will take everything from him and crush him until the very end.

That is Shinwoo’s revenge.

“Cluck, cluck.”

It was now clearly visible on the outside that Lee Yeon-su’s health was getting worse.

He has a very thin body and no strength in his hands.

Shinwoo said, wiping his mouth as he handed him a tissue.

“Lastly, can I ask you something as an old man?”

“Go ahead.”

“Don’t come here anymore. You’re an old man who’s just waiting to die anyway, so you’ll only weaken my resolve to take care of him. Instead, when I die, place my remains next to those of my husband and son.”

“You’re already groaning, which is unusual for a grandmother of the past.”

Lee Yeon-su laughed when she heard the old nickname.

“Youth is truly reckless. On the other hand, aging is truly cruel. The courage and memories of that time are gradually erased.”

She instinctively realized that she didn’t have much time left.

It is my own greed to strengthen my relationship with Shinwoo.

So now I’m starting to think about distancing myself.

Shinwoo understood Lee Yeonsu’s feelings.

“Please wait until I am discharged.”

“Will anything change then?”

“Yes. There are many.”

Shinwoo, who had acted indifferent even after learning the true identity of Geummusan, suddenly became curious when he said that.

“I’ll try.”

That answer is enough.

Shinwoo, who returned to the military, opened up his laptop and looked at the future.

The next two years are very important to him.

How you sow the seeds will determine what you harvest.

“History is faithfully progressing as written.”

The South Korean and global economies are slowly heating up like a pot of boiling water.

Even though he doesn’t seem to have done much, Shinwoo’s assets continue to grow.

If this becomes a full-blown risk, it will increase explosively.

Shinwoo closed the laptop with a loud slam.

* * *

Spring, summer, fall, and winter have come and gone twice, and 2007 has arrived.

Shinwoo’s rank had been changed to captain, and he was now quite accustomed to military life.

It’s not just the ranks that have changed.

Over the past two years, Kangho Investment Development has established itself as a solid mid-sized company.

Every year, we recruit high-quality new employees through large-scale recruitment, and our commercial real estate investments across the United States have generated solid returns.

“Listing on KOSDAQ? Why?”

“If you list when the yield is good, you can make a lot of money with stocks.”

“It may seem that way for now. In the long term, there are many disadvantages.”

Shinwoo has no intention of making money only from American real estate.

The real estate market is hot right now.

On the surface, this may seem like it will only bring in profits, but it will only be for a short time.

In just a few years, the talk of real estate being invincible will disappear, leaving only the sound of lamentation.

‘I should start cleaning up and putting it in dollars while people are getting excited.’

Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, and a whopping $46.2 billion flowed out in just one month, causing a serious shortage of foreign currency liquidity.

And the KOSPI stock price, which had exceeded the 1,400 mark, plummeted to the 900s at the end of October 2008, and the won-dollar exchange rate, which was around 1,100 won per dollar, soared to the 1,400 won range.

‘There must be gold lying on the roadside, but we cannot ignore it and pass it by.’

If Shinwoo were to tell this story in a stable time like now, people would treat him like he’s crazy.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t people warning of an economic crisis.

There are also those in the United States who are expressing concerns about excessive household debt.

‘Michael Bury.’

He is a representative figure who predicted the collapse of the real estate market and attempted short selling, that is, betting on a decline, before the subprime crisis occurred in 2008.

When he tried to tell people about his market forecasting methods during the Great Recession, he was ignored and even suffered the humiliation of being investigated by the FBI.

Shinwoo saw in him the signs of a full-blown economic downturn.

Michael Burry is the warning alarm that informs Shinwoo of the approaching tsunami.

“I guess I should start selling off my Apple stocks soon.”

2007 began with Steve Jobs’ announcement of the iPhone.

The touchscreen iPhone signals a new era.

Apple, which did a 2:1 stock split in 2005, more than doubled its stock price in 2006 alone.

Shinwoo called Marcel and asked him to sell Apple stocks.

-Mr. Kang. Are you serious? The iPhone that Apple announced this time is a revolution! It will be twice as big, no, more.

“I guess so. But I think it’s time to take a break now.”

It fell by nearly half due to the global economic crisis.

And it wasn’t until 2010 that the stock price recovered and grew again.

Marcel sold his stocks with genuine regret.

-Apple was actually welcoming. However, they asked me to tell them that if there was another opportunity, they would like to do business with Mr. Kang again.

“Of course. Thank you.”

The money transferred to Shinwoo’s Swiss account was 23 times the investment amount.

After deducting taxes and Bukoskop Bank fees –

“……How much is this?”

[2,898,000,000,000 won]

It was 2 trillion 898 billion.
