I Become a Mafia in the Academy Chapter 119:

But I decided to ask again, just in case.

By any chance, is the artifact an old gun?

A gun? Ha, an old gun.

Right? Who would use such an old-fashioned

It was a very old double-barreled shotgun. I bought it because it was an artifact, but the only good thing about it was that it was solid, so its been sitting on the wall in my study, unused, I guess.

A shotgun.

Yeah, co to think of it, thats what I happened to have on hand when your father asked for my permission to marry your mother, so I shot him with it. Well, it didnt kill the damned thing.

What?

Hmmmm, no big deal. He seed to be in pain anyway, so it must have done the trick.

No, you cant tell us you tried to kill our father like this.

No matter how many tis I heard it, I couldnt help but think it was just what I was looking for.

Grandpa, did you shoot him?

I wondered if he was reminiscing.

His words ca out so casually that Jiyun stopped chewing her at and asked.

At this, Han Jin-wols expression stiffens as he realizes his mistake.

Its not what you think, its just a joke. A joke. Do you understand?

A joke? I know, joke!

Yes, a joke. Joke.

Sohow, I managed to smooth things over.

Still, I couldnt just turn around and leave, especially not after realizing that the one thing I ca here for was missing.

Grandpa.

Hm? What is it?

Do you mind if I stay here for the night?

Hmm? Here?

Grandpa, surprised, as if he had heard sothing unexpected from my mouth.

What..I dont care, but are you sure, you have to get ready for the academy and get permission from your father.

His expression quickly returned and he said so in a blunt tone, but his legs were shaking violently under the table.

Ill convince my father, and the assignnts for the academycan be taken care of in no ti.

Luckily, this weeks assignnts arent too many, and none of them are difficult, so I suppose it wont matter.

Or maybe not, but does it matter now?

Hmmm. Well, if you say sothen I see no issue.

You an that?

Haru glances in my direction at the question directed at her. In response, I nudged her leg and smirked.

Is that okay?

It would be much more helpful to have Haru around to help move the way I wanted to.

Luckily, Haru nodded as if it wasnt a problem.

I dont mind either, since most of my work can be easily done online.

Really? Did you say that Harulives alone?

Thats right.

Well ..Yes. By the way, Eugene, you should ask your father first. No matter how good the two of you are, if your father says no, I cant help it.

Yes. I see.

As Grandpa said, I must ask my fathers permission first so I left imdiately and called my father.

* * *

To conclude, it was a great success.

At first, my dad was confused, but then I told him that since I hadnt seen my grandfather in a long ti, I wanted to make sure I spend so ti with him.

So Im going to sleep over at your house?

Jiyun asked grandfather with her head held high.

In response, Grandpa strokes Jiyuns head and nods.

Yes, I think so. Kang-chul, will you prepare the rooms for the children and those from Corleone?

Of course, sir.

Hearing grandfathers order, Kim Kang-chul leaves the room first.

After making sure hes completely out of the room, I look back at grandfather.

Im sure youre busy, Grandpa, and I apologize for coming so abruptly.

You shouldnt be so sorry. I was planning on taking it easy this weekend anyway, and Im in pretty good shape, if not as strong as the Awakened, thanks to my three als a day of elixirs.

Even though he was already past the pri of his age, his straight waist, sturdy physique, and firm-looking eyes made him look livelier than he could be.

Im glad to hear that and thats why I was wondering if youd mind if and Haru could spend a day catching that thiefgrandfather?

You an you?

You an us?

Grandpa looked at as if he was surprised by my remark, and Haru looked at as if he didnt know what I was talking about.

Nevertheless, I persisted.

First of all, and Haru are both cadets at the Academy, so we wont be a burden, its just thatgot interested.

Interested?

I pulled out [Al Capones Tommy], which I use as my Academy unique weapon, to make it easier for him to understand.

Actually, I like antique firearms like this, and Id like to see it in person.

Of course, this was a lie.

Im sure thats what grandparents with grandchildren in South Korea do when they see sothing like this.

Haha, thats why, yeah, if youre looking for it, just take it.

This is how they were supposed to give it to their grandchildren as a gift.

Well, now that you ntion it, Im not going to ask for.

Okay, okay. If you need anything else, youll have to speak to the butler you just saw, andhmm, are you sleepy?

The old man who was talking to her lowered his gaze to look at Jiyun.

There she was, dozing off, perhaps because she ate too much. Thinking about it, its ti for a nap in the mansion.

You know, Ive been leaving her alone too much.

Grandpa, who was carrying Jiyun as he stood up, gently waved his arm.

Since the guest room isnt ready yet, Ill let her sleep in my room for now. Would you like to stay here and talk so more?

No, weve had enough and must get up, so may I have a look around the manor?

Yes, make yourself at ho. By the way, Haru.

Yes, sir.

Lets have so tea this evening, just the two of us, and talk about the Inomiya Group.

Okay.

Apparently, the reason Grandpa called Haru was also about the Inomiya Group.

With that, Grandpa and Jiyun left.

Im sorry to ask you for such a sudden favor.

Its okay. If anything, if this story spreads, people will think I have the Hanwol Group behind , and thats more beneficial to .

Thats all she could think of in such a short ti?

She must have done her own math.

Im glad you said that.Shall we get out of here?

Where are you going?

Outside. Ive got a lot of work to do if were going to catch the killer.

It was one of those days where she shook her head, not sure what I ant, but I took the lead and she followed out of the mansion.

Alessia and the gang were waiting in a car in the distance.

As I approach, they step out of the car and bow.

I heard the story from the butler master.

Really? Im sorry, I had to make this decision so suddenly.

Im out of cleaning so this is a break. The other mbers of the organization were also overwheld by Masters grace.

True to her words, the other mbers expressions were also very bright.

Im glad you said that. By the way, I need to talk to you for a mont.

Alessias eyes widened in surprise as I outlined what was going on inside.

He shot Donwith a shotgun, so youre saying that the chairman of Hanwol Group shot the boss?

Is she the one whos surprised?

No, shes not surprised, but.

Whatdoesnt make sense?

Eugene Han Corleone was born speeding.

They call it a shotgun wedding in the West.

Shotgun wedding its a ti-honored tradition in the Western world where a man points a shotgun at the bastard who impregnated his daughter and asks him, Will you marry her or die?

In Grandpas case, its a bit of an anomaly, as he shot the shotgun as soon as he saw father, but who can ignore fathers noble heart.

Perhaps my father has always felt sorry for my grandfather.

I think I know what youre after, how about we start gathering evidence?

No. This is grandfathers mansion, not so other place, and hes not going to stand idly by while we wander around.

Then what do you think we should do?

Oh, nothing much. Lets just kidnap one person.

?

It was no big deal.

What I asked Alessia to do wasnt that difficult.

I wanted her to find one of the mansions occupants, a maid with a scratch on one eyebrow.

Surely she must be sowhere in the manor, as she had been seen when we first arrived.

So here we were, standing in the garden, talking about our plan.

Alessia, the one who received the mission, arrived.

I found her.

Already?

Apparently, the Corleone and the Hanwol Group are connected by blood, and mbers who want to work in both places often move over. Luckily, a friend of one of the organizers I ca with is in charge of security at the mansion, so it was easy to find them.

With that, she handed a briefcase of papers.

The identity and na of the woman you ntioned. And the room shes currently staying in.

I checked the photo, na, and age on the papers, and smiled when I was sure it was the person I was looking for.

Well, then, lets get right to work.

It would be simple.

* * *

After being led to our respective rooms by Kim Kang-chul.

You an her?

Kim Kang-chul is puzzled by the sudden request to et a maid exclusively.

She was there when we arrived, and I recognized her, so I just wanted to say hello.

Is that so? Okay then, Ill ask her.

After so ti passed a womans voice ca from outside the door, accompanied by a clicking sound.

-Sir? I hear youre looking for .

Its open.

A few monts later, the door opened with a click and a girl with a puzzled expression walked into the room.

The scratch on her left eyebrow caught my eye imdiately, she was the person I was looking for.

Im here because you said you knew , butwhere have we t?

.

And?

I didnt answer.

Instead.

One day.

Yes master.

Just as she was about to close the door behind her, Alessia, who had been hiding behind the bed, popped out and placed a cotton bag over her head.

What the-?!!

She was stunned by what happened so quickly but I walked over to her with my hands in my pockets and whispered quietly in her ear.

Do you know whats going on?

Youve been kidnapped.
