Devil Returns To School Days - Chapter 77
17. People looking for Kim Hyun-seong (1)
On the way back home.
Kim Hyun-seong recalled the last conversation he had with Kim Pan-ho.
“I have a favor to ask you for your future plans. Do you know Lim Cheol-hyung, CEO of Mirae Investment & Securities? A securities magnate representing Korea. Please casually introduce Chansu Jeong, a broker at Golden Circle, to that person. “If the congressman says you’re a useful person to entrust the job to, you can take care of the rest.”
When the Golden Gate exploded.
None of the Heavenly members paid the penalty.
So, although it was not clear exactly who the members of Heaven were, the person whose name was most actively discussed on the Internet was Lim Cheol-hyung, CEO of Mirae Investment & Securities. His resume was brilliant. All the atrocities committed to take care of their children were largely in line with the actions of the Golden Circle.
Of course, it was a matter that ended in suspicion.
However, in terms of probability, he is the person who can be identified with the greatest certainty, and above all, there was a special link between Kim Pan-ho and CEO Lim Cheol-hyung. University corruption. Among the Korean University college students for whom Kim Pan-ho managed grades, the children of ‘Im Cheol-hyung’, who is presumed to be a member of Heaven, were also included.
In those words.
Kim Pan-ho immediately realized the intention.
The fact that he was trying to access the center of the Golden Circle using his business card.
Kim Pan-ho said.
“Let me help you. “If only they could become president, what would such rotten bastards know?”
I kept my promise.
Kim Pan-ho is not a child who does not know anything about the world, so he knew that this one decision to help Kim Hyun-seong might lead to an uncomfortable relationship with Lim Cheol-hyung. I was willing to take that level of risk. I knew that it was just a doubt anyway and that I couldn’t rise to the top just by making safe choices.
That ended the conversation.
It was a matter that needed time in the future.
Kim Pan-ho introduced Jeong Chan-soo, and based on that relationship, Lim Cheol-hyung caught the eye.
From the moment Chan-soo Jeong takes full control of the heavenly figures, Hyun-sung Kim can create the version he wants.
‘If Lim Cheol-hyung is not a member of Heaven, the plan will not be established in the first place. But I’m confident he used the Golden Circle. The Golden Circle is not only a convenient system for managing children, but it is also a social gathering that can attract connections that are helpful to Mirae Investment & Securities. And if you are the CEO of Mirae Investment & Securities, you will have no choice but to specially manage the Golden Circle as a heavenly member.’
Numerous suspicions.
Lots of circumstantial evidence.
Lim Cheol-hyung was a truly powerful man, but he was not punished.
Because he had that much power.
The huge cartel formed by the Golden Circle thoroughly protected its customers even in the case called Gate.
Hyunseong Kim let out white breath.
The day was chilly.
The road back home was uphill and bumpy, but not difficult at all.
‘Following Chansu Jeong, to Panho Kim.’
An important juncture has been passed.
Now it was time to use the puzzles that fit together to make what we had planned at the bottom of our lives a reality.
My heart was racing.
I was running like crazy.
Climbing the difficult uphill road, Kim Hyun-seong did not slow down his pace even for a moment.
* * *
The next day.
Arriving at school, Kim Hyun-seong received an unexpected call.
I walked along with someone.
When we arrived at a quiet place where no one was walking, someone stopped and looked back.
“Do you know why I called you?”
“uh.”
“I’ll be honest. I was really embarrassed that day. It’s not that I don’t understand why you doubted me, but I never thought you’d think of me as that kind of person. And fortunately, the misunderstanding was resolved. Rather than saying I gave a plausible explanation, I think you knew from the beginning that I wasn’t the culprit. “The reason you called me to the warehouse was probably not to threaten me, but to invite my friend Oh Hye-ji.”
It was Choi Seon-ah.
He looked straight at Kim Hyun-seong with a face filled with darkness.
“Since that day, Oh Hye-ji hasn’t come to school. It’s winter break soon, but he dropped out of school and there are rumors that he was taken to the emergency room. It’s all your fault. It’s clear that you made Hyeji like that. “But do you know why I didn’t tell anyone even though I knew about it?”
“….”
There was no answer.
He just stared and didn’t show any positivity.
“I also hate people like Oh Hye-ji. A devil who only cares about his own feelings and carelessly plunges others into the abyss. That’s how my brother died. My brother was a very kind person and never said anything bad wherever he went, but after being bullied, he wrote a will and committed suicide. But how can I defend Oh Hye-ji? “How can I shed a tear for that devil when there’s a rumor going around that her face is all messed up and she can’t walk anymore?”
“So what do you want to say?”
after that day.
Choi Seon-ah was troubled.
All kinds of thoughts were tangled in her head until she called Kim Hyun-seong.
And it was only today that I made a decision.
“This may be my imagination, but if you think the same way as me. If you dream of a future where demons like Oh Hye-ji are torn apart. “Can’t I help you too?”
that.
It was another malice.
* * *
Choi Seon-ah.
I had no special memories from my past life.
Is that why?
Now the truth has been seen.
Behind her pretty appearance, her face was strangely distorted.
Choi Seon-ah suppressed her true feelings, living a very normal life as if nothing had happened and as if her brother never existed in the first place. My dream is to study really hard and get rid of the trash. She held back tears and solved the problem over and over again without even telling her parents.
Hyunseong Kim didn’t know.
In the distant future, she became a prosecutor, and even after the Golden Gate incident was concluded, she dug into the case and raised issues.
Choi Seon-ah revealed her true face.
The eyes were stained with madness.
Her appearance, which anyone could see as pretty, erupted with such vicious malice that it instantly felt like the devil.
“I will help you.”
From the Park Min-cheol gang incident until now.
She watched Kim Hyun-seong.
I instinctively felt a strange sense of kinship.
Kim Hyun-seong showed his malicious intent to not simply fight against school violence, but to thoroughly trample on the lives of trash. That may be why I was fascinated by Kim Hyun-seong. I expressed my interest in him because I was curious about what kind of person he was and because I wanted to know what he really wanted.
actually.
At this time, Choi Seon-ah was not buried in malice.
Although he was still in the process of growing up, Kim Hyun-seong faced his true feelings after seeing the results he had created.
Oh Hye-ji’s truth.
It was devastating.
She was angry at the fact that she had such a scum as her friend, but when she heard the rumor about Oh Hye-ji, she felt joy that could not be described in words. This was it. This was the future I was hoping for. It wasn’t clear in my head, but the reason I was so obsessed with studying was to give trash a hopeless future.
I became honest with myself.
I accepted the malice.
That look.
Kim Hyun-seong stared.
It was unplanned.
Choi Seon-ah’s parents are former high-ranking civil servants and served as the chairman of the School Violence Prevention Committee, so she will definitely be useful.
but.
“How far are you willing to go for this?”
“Anything.”
“Anything?”
His expression hardened.
Choi Seon-ah and herself are different.
Her malice was not ripe.
She may have experienced hell after her brother died, but it was bound to be different from the years Kim Hyun-seong experienced.
“If someone interferes with your plans, can you stab them with a knife? “For revenge, can you cut off his Achilles tendon so he can no longer walk and gouge out his eyes so he can no longer see the world?”
“That…”
I was speechless.
It was so cruel.
Anyway, I never thought about it that far.
understood.
Because her resolution has not yet become a reality.
My 17-year-old self was like that too, so I didn’t want to accept Choi Choi as she is now.
“I am. Be prepared to break your own bones when you break your opponent’s bones. When you trample on someone else’s life, you are prepared to have your own life trampled as well. So, I try my best in everything I do to be more desperate and never make mistakes. But what can you do for me with that kind of determination? So don’t ever call me out on something like this again.”
I took a step back.
Choi Seon-ah tried to say something, but there was no need to hear the answer.
That was it.
He had no intention of inserting his foolish will into the future he envisioned.
* * *
That day.
Choi Seon-ah didn’t say a word until school ended.
He seemed shocked.
Seeing her staring at the blackboard with a blank face, Kim Hyun-seong did not bother to intervene in her life anymore.
That was better.
Future plans.
An ordinary life is not allowed.
You can’t live a happy life like everyone else, graduating from school, going to a good university, meeting someone you love, and starting a family. With that mindset, it was impossible. You can only hope for revenge if you have the mindset of putting yourself in the fire as much as you want the destruction of the trash.
In that future.
I didn’t want to include Choi Seon-ah.
He did not want victims like himself to live a life buried in revenge, not trash like Kim Young-cheol, Oh Dae-hwan, and Jeong Chan-soo. He was chosen. From the moment I returned to the past, I had no choice but to live looking only for revenge, so the hell called reality was enough for me alone.
School is over.
Then a familiar face came up and put his arm around my shoulder.
chuck.
“let’s go.”
“Did you study some?”
“of course. “That’s my promise to you.”
It was Kim Si-woo.
Since we went to the gym together, I always ran to Hyunseong Kim after school.
It was the same with him.
Like Choi Seon-ah, he was someone who had to be defeated someday, but now his will could not be stopped.
‘It’ll be okay in Daesan. But no matter what happens from the moment you transfer to the school, Kim Si-woo will never be there.’
Daesan.
It was Kim Hyun-seong’s home ground.
You can still block the Golden Circle’s malicious intent here, but if you transfer to Gangnam, you cannot guarantee your own safety from then on. That was the deadline Kim Hyun-seong thought of. For now, I accepted Kim Si-woo’s good intentions, but I was planning to somehow drop him if that moment came.
of course.
Before that, we need to lay the foundation.
Financial support or improved grades so that Kim Si-woo can live well in the future.
Grandmother Kim Hyun-jin and Kim Si-woo.
I didn’t wish them any misfortune.
Entering the fire pit alone was enough.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at the gym.
However, as soon as a man wandering in front of him spotted Kim Hyun-seong, he reacted with admiration.
“uh? Are you by any chance Kim Hyun-seong’s student?”
“Who are you?”
It was my first time seeing this face.
When Kim Hyun-seong and Kim Si-woo stopped walking and looked wary, the man smiled brightly and handed them a business card.
Okay.
