Chapter 153 - Ti to Clean Up #4
T-That person...!
Song Won-jin asked in a quivering voice.
"Y-You...w-who are you?”
"Eh? You don’t know? Really?"
"I-I-I don’t know!”
Oh, look at this. Tae-hyuk smiled.
Song Won-jin’s words seed to be true. He was the chairman of Taesung Chemicals. He took the lives of Kim Tae-sung’s family and drove him to beco the Bomber, yet he didn’t even know Kim Tae-sung’s face.
“How funny. Really funny.”
Tae-hyuk brought his mouth to Song Won-jin’s ear and whispered,
"I am called the Bomber.”
“......!”
Now Song Won-jin realized who was in front of him.
"Now do you understand why I ca here?”
“...T-This is ridiculous. You can’t do anything but make bombs... H-How did you...?”
Chairman Song Won-jin seed terribly confused. However, he started looking at one corner of the room.
“Hrmm. There must be bodyguards in the next room. You are probably expecting them to co and save you when you give a signal.”
"K-Kuock! ...You must have co here for a suicide bombing. You must have known that I was here. But this is the end. Surely you didn’t think I would co here without any preparations!”
Song Won-jin pressed the pager hidden in his pillow. Then the connecting door opened and the security guards waiting in the next room rushed out. Originally, they would’ve stayed in the sa room as Song Won-jin to protect him.
However, he sent them away for a while and this happened, and now the situation was reversed. Even if the Bomber had a bomb, it would be over if he was taken out before pressing the button.
“C-Chairman-nim! Are you okay?”
Song Won-jin exclaid,
"K-Kill this bastard!”
The elite bodyguards moved quickly. They were holding sothing that looked like a briefcase. In fact, the guards pressed the knob and pulled out a special gun. Song Won-jin smiled with satisfaction as gunn suddenly appeared. The Bomber would be riddled with holes due to the bodyguards...
Tae-hyuk shrugged and used Bullet Ti. He aid his pistol and killed four bodyguards in an instant.
“H-Heok! W-What is this?"
“Isn’t the situation flowing differently from what you thought?”
“......”
For the first ti, fear entered Song Won-jin’s eyes.
"Now it seems like we are ready to talk seriously.”
“...What are you? The Bomber is clearly an ordinary human... Aaaaack! P-P-Phantom!”
Song Won-jin realized who was in front of him. He heard that Phantom had broken the Bomber out of prison. Therefore, he strengthened his security by several tis. They always checked if there were bombs installed, everywhere he went.
Song Won-jin thought that Phantom broke out the Bomber because he needed the bombs, yet Phantom had co barging in here.
Tae-hyuk said with a smile,
"That reminds , didn’t I get paid when the case involving Taesung was revealed? I was just trying to make money. Don’t bla too much.”
"T-That is aningless...”
“I’m sorry. I’m a little busy. Let’s get straight to the point. Ah, don’t try to run away.”
Tae-hyuk shot at Song Won-jin’s foot as he tried to run away.
“Kwaaaack!”
"You can keep trying to run away. But next ti, I’ll shoot sothing between your legs, so be careful.”
“......”
Song Won-jin nodded desperately with a white face.
"Then let’s start the fun question ti. First of all, who invented the bomb?”
“......”
"Well, that isn’t very important.”
"K-Kuhok, ugh... I-I understand! I-I will answer. I was the head of the research institute. I never gave the command...”
“That isn’t my question.”
Song Won-jin gulped at the unexpected words.
"Don’t you have a friendship with the Yakuza who ca across the water?”
“......!”
Song Won-jin was shocked.
After seeing his expression, Tae-hyuk realized that this was the last piece of the puzzle. But first, he needed to get a clear answer from Song Won-jin’s mouth.
"What are you doing with them?”
"T-That..."
Tatang!
“K-Kuaaack!” Wahh...! Kuaaaaak!"
Tae-hyuk looked at the blood splattering Song Won-jin’s crotch.
"I told you. If you don’t answer properly, then I will shoot. There is only one chance. The next ti...”
“...K-Kuock. Kk...”
Song Won-jin looked at his groin bitterly. He had lost the most important part for a man.
“There is no more ti to do that.”
Tae-hyuk pointed a gun at Song Won-jin’s head. In the end, Song Won-jin couldn’t endure it anymore and shouted.
“...R-Right! The Yakuza are behind the Taesung Group!”
"It would’ve been good if you had said that sooner. What are you doing with the Yakuza?”
“T-That... I can never say it...”
"Perhaps this person threatened to kill you if you leaked such secrets?”
Tae-hyuk took off the skull mask for a brief mont and Mister Park’s face was revealed.
“M-M-Mister Park!”
Mister Park’s na erged from the mouth of the shocked Song Won-jin.
“Tsk. I would have told you to watch your mouth.”
“...Phantom already knows everything.”
"Actually, it is only half-way.”
"This, shit...”
In the end, Song Won-jin was forced to tell everything that he knew. He might die at the hands of the Yakuza, but he needed to escape from the threat in front of him first.
“...Yes. We are doing research for the Yakuza.”
"What research?”
"The Yakuza call it Psychotropic Incense. It is a special fragrance with a brainwashing effect.”
"Do you know the raw material that it is made out of?”
"I know that it isn’t a normal material.”
"Shouldn’t you know since you are doing research on it?”
“......”
Song Won-jin didn’t say anything for a while. He knew what the Taesung Group was doing to make money. The mont he expressed this, his life would be like a fire in front of the wind. Even if he escaped from Phantom, he would die at the hands of the Yakuza.
"Then what is the relationship between the Psychotropic Incense and the virus killing event?”
Song Won-jin opened his mouth with a troubled expression. He would’ve never said this if a gun wasn’t pointed at his head.
“It is very hard to make the Psychotropic Incense. However, it is possible to increase the Psychotropic Incense if there is the T-1 virus, and it can even be spread through the air."
“Whoa. Wait a minute. Then you can enslave the whole country using the Psychotropic Incense?”
"T-That’s correct. Of course, it is still in the research stage, but once it is completed, we can sell Taesung Group products more efficiently than anyone else. When that happens, we will be the largest group in the country... No, the world’s greatest...”
Tae-hyuk smiled.
This was why they were studying sothing like the Psychotropic Incense. It seed like he didn’t know how dangerous the Psychotropic Incense was.
’When I was in the Death Circus, it only clouded people’s judgent. But it is evolving gradually through research.’
Then Mister Park would borrow the na of his twin brother to enter the political world. Sothing would go wrong and he would be killed. A young guard in his 20s got involved without knowing anything. That young man would unfairly go to prison for 10 years, only to receive the death penalty.
The whole thing hadn’t begun yet, but Tae-hyuk knew what would happen.
“Really? Then who ordered that the Bomber’s family be used as an experint?”
Tae-hyuk wanted to know who had turned him into a scapegoat. The person giving both orders was likely to be the sa.
"That, I really don’t know! The Yakuza are in charge of the research institute...”
Tae-hyuk smirked. Yes, that was the case.
"But weren’t you the one who ordered it to be kept as secret as possible? Then aren’t you responsible?”
“......”
"Well, you answered my questions, so I’ll finish it here.”
“T-This is the end? R-Really?”
“Ah. I have one last thing to ask. Where did the institute move to?”
“T-That...”
Song Won-jin eyes’s shook but there was suddenly a gunshot from sowhere.
Tatang!
“K-Keok...”
"H-How dare you betray Oyabun! Hooray Yamaguchi!”
One of the bodyguards was still alive. His trembling hands held the briefcase as blood poured from his mouth. The deep sll of death filled the room.
Tae-hyuk licked his lips.
"Sheesh. I didn’t get to hear the most important thing. Well, it doesn’t really matter.”
Without looking back, he shot the bodyguard with the pistol.
"I’m sorry but I already know the location of the institute.”
Hawk Eyes allowed him to see the status window of the opponent, and briefly displayed the person’s current psychological state. As soon as Tae-hyuk ntioned the institute, Song Won-jin had recalled the location. Naturally, the location of the research institute was marked on the Demon Revealing Mirror.
“Ku, kukukuk... Goodbye Song Won-jin. Don’t worry, your friends will follow you soon.”
Tae-hyuk said with a laugh.
As he rose from his seat, he saw sothing in the mirror covering one entire wall of the hotel room.
“......?”
The place where the eyeballs were supposed to be was a hollow space. The mouth was ripped from ear to ear and sothing red dripped whenever he laughed.
Sothing looked at Tae-hyuk and laughed,
Tae-hyuk realized who it was.
"What, it is .”
He shook his head a few tis and the reflection in the mirror beca Tae-hyuk’s original image. He had to be tired.
Maybe he used the cri skills too much, but he couldn’t rest just yet.
@
Tae-hyuk looked at the research institute in front of him. It was considerably large since it was attached to a university. On the street, researchers wearing white gloves were talking together happily.
’The atmosphere isn’t bad. Now, this place...’
As Tae-hyuk got out of the taxi, sobody followed him. They took his hand and said,
"Tae-hyuk, this is the Wolsang Institute. Starting from next year, Noona has decided to attend the university attached to it.”
“Well, it isn’t bad.”
Tae-hyuk smiled at Ha-ran.
However, he suddenly lost his appetite.
’Noona suddenly said that she wants to go to this university.’
Originally, he was planning to go to another research institute. Suddenly, Ha-ran said that the director of the Wolsang Institute wanted to talk to him. He had planned to refuse and strike the Taesung Research Institute of Physics and Chemistry, but sothing strange lingered in his mind.
It was like a premonition. In order to find out what it was, he decided to et the director of the Wolsang Institute.
‘Fortunately, I removed all witnesses, so the Taesung research institute won’t be removed again any ti soon.’
Ha-ran pulled Tae-hyuk’s hand and cried out,
"Now, let’s go!"
Her footsteps were very light at the thought of this being her university life from next year. Tae-hyuk laughed as he touched sothing in his pocket. He had forgotten for a while, but that smile...
Eh? What was it?
