Devil Returns To School Days - Chapter 147
28. Home Ground (2)
The time when Jeong Ki-ho was taken to the police station.
Go Chang-beom received a call.
[First of all, I took appropriate measures, but is this okay? This is a guy who is going to have a setback as he is already starting to get a bite from the top. It is possible to give a warning message, but anything more than that will definitely result in bloodshed.]
“That is enough. If anyone holds you accountable for this incident, please tell them that Myungjin Construction will take full responsibility for your future life. In particular, the chief must be under a lot of burden due to this incident, but no matter what the outcome is, Myungjin Construction will not forget this favor. And I’m saying this because you’re the chief, but doesn’t it really bother you to see people from outside the area come down to Daesan and engage in misbehavior?”
[Hahaha, that’s right. I wonder where this place is where Seoul’s idiots go on a rampage. All right. I will take care of it. By the way, Chairman, how are you? In the past, he would sometimes come to the office and have a glass of makgeolli, but these days he doesn’t walk as well.]
“It’s the chairman…”
The person I was talking to was the police chief of Daesan.
He was not this kind of person until Go Chang-beom confirmed the position of ‘Chairman’, but his attitude completely changed after he won the successor competition with Go Chang-seok. Even now, we did not hang up the phone right away and exchanged trivial stories. Thanks to this, Go Chang-beom was able to comfortably ask for a personal request.
Only after 10 more minutes had passed.
Pop.
I hung up.
In the end, it ended with a request to take a good look, and Go Chang-beom looked out the office window with a complicated face.
“What a fucking world.”
A few months ago.
As Kim Hyun-seong prepared to go to Seoul, he asked her to take care of his ‘family’s safety’ in case of his absence. To be honest, until then, I thought Kim Hyun-seong was overdoing it. No matter how great the force he is trying to destroy is, can they really be such trash that they even touch his family?
But it became reality.
In addition to Jeong Ki-ho, who was openly following him, we also checked on people walking around nearby looking into Kim Hyun-seong.
‘It probably means that Hyeonseong came down to deal with one.’
My taste buds were bitter.
Even though he didn’t live properly, he never did such trashy things as harming the other person’s family. It was far from school violence. He was not interested in feeling psychological superiority by tormenting the weak, and the numerous violent incidents that decorated Go Chang-beom’s life records were a battle for rank among the same gangsters. There is no change in the fact that he is a scoundrel because he even went on an expedition and beat him up, but still, this group targeting Kim Hyun-seong has gone far beyond what even a scum like him can see.
As I said to the chief.
No further action was possible.
This action was meant as a warning that they would not remain silent as there were circumstances that would put pressure on Daesan’s police chief. This alone will force the opponent to be cautious. The entire city of Daesan appears to be on high alert, but if you mess with civilians, the spark will spread to Seoul.
That’s it for now.
Now it was the next step.
Kim Hyun-seong warned not only of the safety of his family, but also of other dangers.
Go Chang-beom contacted his secretary.
“Tell this to your employees. “Get ready for ‘that’.”
[I understand.]
* * *
It was as expected.
Jeong Ki-ho was eventually released.
As lawyers from the Golden Circle poured in, the police could do nothing more.
Let’s come outside.
Jeong Ki-ho immediately contacted Park Hyeong-jun.
“…This is what happened.”
[So the other person was preparing for our intentions in advance?]
“Otherwise, it is an impossible response. Police officers were guarding the school entrance and exit, and were constantly patrolling the area around the residence under the pretext of a youth self-governance association. If you somehow caused a problem, you could touch Kim Hyun-seong’s family, but as you know, if ‘blatant intent’ is proven, it is not easy to resolve the problem. And if Kim Hyun-seong is so thorough in his preparations, the chances of a setback are very high.”
[What on earth is Kim Hyun-seong doing? According to the kids who investigated the surrounding area, as soon as the story of Kim Hyun-sung was brought up, there was a hostile reaction. How can a kid who is not even a local official exert that level of influence?]
“I think the main thing is that Myungjin Construction’s Go Chang-beom won the successor competition. Don’t local people band together and reject outsiders? From their perspective, our intentions may not be satisfactory. That’s why I’m telling you, wouldn’t it be better to deal with Go Chang-beom first? If Go Chang-beom is removed, the background to protect Kim Hyun-seong will completely disappear. “The people who are currently protecting their families are also likely to be Go Chang-beom’s people.”
[Okay, let’s handle Go Chang-beom as planned.]
“I understand.”
Dull.
Jeong Ki-ho took out a cigarette.
I felt a belated sense of relief because it didn’t seem like I was being held responsible for this incident.
At the same time, I was also angry.
Every time he suddenly felt pain in his face, his hostility toward Kim Hyun-seong, who had made him like this, flared up.
“And how about targeting Kim Hyun-jin again at the same time as Go Chang-beom? If there is such thorough surveillance from outside the school, as always, in the Golden Circle fashion. “If Kim Hyun-jin is subjected to school violence that cannot be proven to contain blatant malice, Kim Hyun-seong will certainly suffer a psychological blow.”
[Are there any children who can take on the work?]
“I will contact local brokers.”
[I’ll leave that up to you.]
“Thank you!”
He answered loudly.
After hanging up the phone, he took a deep breath on his cigarette, smiled so much that his teeth were brightly exposed, and exhaled smoke.
“Hyunseong, you touched the wrong person.”
* * *
Minors are stupid.
To be precise, he is immature and immature.
Regardless of whether Go Chang-beom had a background or not, I thought that if I waved a bundle of cash in front of him, he would accept the request without thinking about what happened next.
however.
[…Are you asking me to touch Hyunjin Kim? I’m sorry, but there isn’t a single kid in this school who can do that. Kim Hyun-jin’s older brother is the famous Kim Hyun-seong. Cheonil High School crazy dog. In the past, there was a case where Kim Hyun-jin was messed up without knowing what to do, so no one at our school would do something crazy like that.]
I received contact information from local brokers about students who were having a bit of fun.
Among them, I contacted a student at Daesan Science High School, but he freaked out and cut off the conversation before I could even get to the point. An ominous feeling crept in from the beginning. It’s usually better to process requests from the Golden Circle at the same school, but if it got to this point, I had no choice but to find another school.
I made contact.
These were schools that were not related to Daesung Mirae Cheonil High School, but the answer that came back was beyond absurd and shocking.
[Oh, that’s it. A person who goes around picking on the Daesan kids. hey. I don’t know why you’re trying to mess with Hyunjin, but I’ve already issued a warning about you. They give out a request like this and Cheonil High School will kill anyone who accepts it. So don’t be a dick and just get out of the way.]
[You’re giving me 3,000? Wow, you seem to have a lot of money. However, if you accept the request and break one of your arms. If you become crippled like that. 3,000 is too cheap. Don’t contact me unless you want to give me 10 billion won.]
[…You really don’t know what the world is like. Haven’t you heard the rumors about Kim Hyun-seong? He’s really crazy. The kids he messed with are currently in the hospital, taken to a juvenile detention center, and there’s an uproar, but some crazy bastard is doing something crazy to make some money. At the bottom of Daesan, Kim Hyun-seong is just out of the question.]
I’ve been on the phone for several days.
But not even one.
No favorable reply was received.
I spoke confidently to Park Hyeong-jun, but Jeong Ki-ho looked at his phone with a stern expression in a difficult situation.
“How on earth did you get to go to school this kid?”
I guess.
The plan to invade the school seemed to have ended in failure before it even began.
* * *
That evening.
Hyeongjun Park received a report from Kiho Jeong.
[sorry. There were no people in Daesan willing to accept the request, so I contacted the surrounding area, but Kim Hyun-sung’s notoriety was so great that no one was willing to do it. Seeing as they don’t even consider it even though I suggested a slightly unreasonable request fee, it seems virtually impossible for the local government to handle it. [It would be better to bring the kids from Seoul…]
“No. Get there. If you were to crowd around the kids in Seoul, there would be nothing more strange than that. “For now, just wait.”
[Okay.]
Pop.
I hung up.
There was no separate reprimand or great anger.
I expected it from the beginning.
While investigating Kim Hyun-seong, I thought that it would not be easy to touch Kim Hyun-jin using the Golden Circle method because his achievements were truly remarkable and he had a story about conquering Daesan. Still, I once again felt like he was a bigger guy. No matter how much they lived in one area, it was difficult for even adults to imprint this level of fear.
Then, of course.
There was only one way.
‘The only choice is to tear down the support that supports Kim Hyun-seong.’
This plan won’t be difficult.
A method that is more fatal to those who are equipped than to an individual.
Ko Chang-beom, who has to ascend to the position of chairman, will inevitably be in even more trouble due to what happens tomorrow.
Will Kim Hyun-seong survive after losing his life?
Or will we all fall together?
‘No matter what, it will be a fatal bad news for Myungjin Construction. Just the fact that I acted on behalf of the Golden Circle.’
I was looking forward to tomorrow.
Tomorrow we will finally achieve meaningful results.
* * *
The next day.
Myungjin Construction was shaken up from the morning.
“It came from the IRS.”
“Everyone, please stop what you are doing. From now on, if you make a deliberate move to destroy data, we will determine that the circumstances of tax evasion are clear and you will be held responsible. Everyone, get your materials. “Everything, nothing.”
Rumble.
It was a really sudden situation.
Numerous vehicles stopped in front of Myungjin Construction’s headquarters, and people from the National Tax Service suddenly came in and started robbing the headquarters. Starting from the computer itself to hand-written data. They waved away the employees who tried to stop them with a vain look on their faces, showing their determination not to leave even an inch of dust behind.
They also stormed into Go Chang-beom’s office.
Go Chang-beom looked at the scene with a more peaceful face than expected as he was seen openly dismantling the connecting lines of the main body.
“That’s amazing. “Like this, a company can be wiped out overnight.”
“Mr. Go Chang-beom. Let’s get it straight. This is not happening because we are great, but because the circumstances are clear that Myungjin Construction committed corruption. “If we had paid our taxes cleanly and operated our business without any problems in the first place, we would not have met like this.”
“Let’s put it that way.”
“under?”
Affiliated with the National Tax Service.
Jeong Se-hoon, who was in charge of this matter, distorted his expression.
I couldn’t understand the other person’s reaction.
The National Tax Service moved at Golden Circle’s request, which led to a large-scale tax investigation targeting Myungjin Construction. In short, it was a disaster that could never be avoided. Even if the company was run really cleanly, it was impossible to leave no trace of taint in a company where hundreds of billions of dollars were exchanged. It was a fight with a decided outcome, so much so that there was a saying that if the National Tax Service robbed them, they would definitely get out.
furthermore.
The circumstances surrounding Myungjin Construction’s corruption have already been secured.
The construction industry itself was originally an industry with many loopholes, and it was confirmed that Myungjin Construction had actually spread money everywhere for unclear purposes. The reason why they were able to take strong roots in Daesan. This was because it was not a clean company that only cared about the houses where people lived, but a corrupt company that split profits and losses appropriately.
But what?
What is Go Chang-beom’s reaction?
‘You say you’re a high school graduate, but you’re slow to grasp reality.’ Well, you will soon realize the reality. What a tax investigation means.’
I chuckled.
Jeong Se-hoon said after clearing the entire office.
“let’s go.”
People who came in like a tide.
It flowed away like an ebb tide.
Looking at that figure.
Go Chang-beom’s eyes became cold.
