The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 95

Episode 95

“Then let’s proceed like that.”

Following the President’s instructions, the Senior Secretary for Political Affairs bowed his head and walked out of the office.

The President, who was left alone with Cheon Myeong-guk, grinned.

“Things are going very interestingly. “Isn’t that right?”

“······.”

“You have to see this for yourself. I have never felt so sad that I am not in the National Assembly. “There was probably a mess going on by now.”

“You have a bad hobby.”

“What if I don’t? These are the people who kick my luck. It should be fun to watch. “The Equal Application Act has gone too far.”

The president clicked his tongue. Cheon Myeong-guk also agreed on that part.

The global trend is gradually moving in the direction of loosening regulations toward the awakened. This is because the crimes of the awakened have emerged as a serious social problem, but the threat of monsters has surpassed that. The fact that people could go to other countries if their country treated them poorly also played a role.

To prevent this, several national associations have banned the practice of stealing superhumans from other countries, but it still happens secretly behind the scenes.

The situation is such that people are desperate to serve superhumans.

To top it off, there were countries that tried to reduce the number of monsters even by joining hands with villain organizations.

From that perspective, the Equal Application Act was clearly a retrograde law.

However, it was not true whether this law was created after listening to sufficient field experience, as it is currently controversial.

“You don’t realize how reckless the power struggle with Choi Jun-ho is. I thought Ji Chang-yong would be in control, but his hair got a lot thicker after he became the party leader. “He was the most observant guy, so I helped him.”

“But we need the party’s cooperation.”

“I know, so didn’t they show sincerity in sending the senior secretary for political affairs? Even so, I wouldn’t accept it. Whatever the outcome, now is the time to wait and see. Only after we determine which side has the upper hand can we mediate. but.”

The president spoke with confidence in his voice.

“Choi Jun-ho’s words are extremely common sense. “It’s obvious how the guys caught in the red flag will react.”

“I think the same.”

“Now that I see it, Choi Jun-ho has considerable political power, but dealing with him will be difficult.”

“ah······.”

Cheon Myeong-guk, who did not understand for a moment why the pitiful eyes were directed at him, realized that it was he who had to deal with him and sighed.

Damn, I feel like my stomach hurts.

*

Choi Jun-ho’s remarks shook the ruling party.

Since the proposal of the bill was led by the ruling party, it sounded like a declaration of war.

The Senior Secretary for Political Affairs tried to mediate, but of course it broke down.

Rather, the anger of the ruling party members soared to the sky at the Blue House’s actions in protecting Choi Jun-ho.

“This is playing a trick on us!”

“Choi Junho! “How dare that guy become a member of the National Assembly!”

“We have to push now! “Let’s put pressure on the Blue House!”

“CEO! Please make a decision!”

“······.”

Party leader Ji Chang-yong closed his eyes and listened to the lawmakers shouting.

It is the cry of pitiful things.

‘The President must be holding his tongue. ‘This will only make you cry.’

Ji Chang-yong, who has been assisting the president as a member of his faction since he was the party leader, noticed what was going on.

The arbitrary plan to suppress Choi Jun-ho was a failure. I should have guessed when protecting Choi Jun-ho at the Blue House, but I took the wrong first step, thinking it was a loose relationship.

The problem is that the ultimate responsibility lies with you.

In the ‘Lunch Box Incident’, Choi Hyo-jik’s son-in-law became a rebel and was dissatisfied with the order to exclude him from nominations. Choi Hyo-jik is said to be the subject of corruption, but he believes that neither he, the party leader, nor Han Jeong-moon, the mayor of Seoul, should be treated this way.

Since you have already drawn your knife, you must at least cut the radish. However, you should also keep in mind that things can go wrong.

Ji Chang-yong said while watching the lawmakers who had blood on their necks.

“Representative Kim Yong-jun, Representative Ha Sang-woo, Representative Kim Seul-hye. It was the lawmakers who said that a rope should be hung around the necks of superhumans. Choi Jun-ho’s opinion is reasonable, so why not go to the site?”

The Equal Application Act was proposed by three people. They went around the National Assembly saying that Choi Jun-ho’s behavior was scandalous.

The faces of the three National Assembly members who were pointed out became bright red.

“CEO! “Are you going to abandon us now?”

“If we get there, they will kill us! Have you forgotten what kind of person Choi Jun-ho is!”

“CEO, that means giving in to Choi Jun-ho!”

You’re not saying you’ll go even if you die soon.

Ji Changyong snorted on the inside while maintaining a serious expression on the outside.

The real problem was what would happen afterwards, even if the lawmakers were brave enough to go.

Will they be able to return safely?

Why does it feel like no one can survive?

It was Choi Jun-ho’s fear that made him think like this.

Many superhumans have appeared in Korea so far, but there has never been one like this. Rather, they wanted to join their inner circle and become members of the cartel. The one who was most faithful here was Red Snake Kim Young-hwan.

We were so greedy that it became a burden later on, but we communicated well.

But not Choi Jun-ho.

There is no greed for money and no desire for fame. If the number is wrong, you use your hand first, regardless of the opponent’s status. Nevertheless, the reason why there are endless victims is because there are many people who have the mindset of ‘I guess it’s not me.’

Choi Jun-ho was already a bomb that could explode at any moment for vested interests.

So, we have to find a way to control Choi Jun-ho at all costs.

“So what options do we have left?”

“Avoid Choi Jun-ho and gain practical experience!”

“Why should we follow Choi Jun-ho’s suggestion? Let’s push through the numbers.”

“How is that possible when the Blue House exercises veto power? “Are you confident that you can persuade the President?”

“Shouldn’t you just ask the CEO for that?”

This is so fucked up.

Do they have any chance of winning if they are split up and fighting because of Choi Jun-ho’s move?

This was when the fight became more and more intense. A young man who had been quietly observing the situation raised his hand.

“CEO.”

“Representative Yoo Joong-ho.”

It was re-elected lawmaker Yoo Joong-ho. He spoke with a confident face.

“Let me meet superhuman Choi Jun-ho.”

“Him?”

“yes. Choi Jun-ho’s super hero came out too aggressively, but I think there will definitely be some issues to discuss. “I will meet you in person and convince you.”

“I know Rep. Yoo Joong-ho’s resourcefulness, but Choi Jun-ho is a bit…”

Worst of all, even the Blue House has given up on persuading him. Moreover, Choi Jun-ho was famous for not meeting members of the National Assembly. No, it was correct to say that I was not interested at all. There are a lot of lawmakers who are upset because they are not treated well.

However, there was some hope that the situation would turn around if the eloquent Yoo Joong-ho stepped forward.

Ji Chang-yong changed his mind. If Yoo Joong-ho succeeds, he will be able to use his position to keep other lawmakers in check.

“Let’s believe it.”

“We will bring you results that will satisfy you.”

Yoo Joong-ho said confidently.

As my interview became a hot topic, my sparring with Dahyun Jeong also became quite a hot topic.

In particular, there was a huge amount of public opinion praising Da-Hyun Jeong’s beauty, and Jin Se-Jeong gave consolation, not consolation, by saying that women are usually preferred more than men on Internet broadcasts.

This was the first time I realized that I could overcome my limitations so easily.

Should I talk to Lee Se-hee next time?

Aside from that, catching Yunhee went very easily.

“Can I look forward to it?”

“Oh, I’m looking forward to it.”

Having found a great scapegoat, I also heard a story about Internet broadcasting during a meeting with Lee Se-hee.

Surprisingly, Lee Se-hee, who is active in self-PR, did not talk about appearing on broadcasts.

“I have to think not only about myself but also about the group’s image. “We have no choice but to be more cautious.”

“Right.”

“Because I have a lot to protect. “Mercury has no choice but to be conservative.”

Lee Se-hee, who had a lot of burden on her shoulders, must have been quite tired, I thought.

“And I like it as hardcore as it is now. “It’s not suitable for broadcast.”

“but.”

Sometimes, Lee Se-hee was the one who cried out for me to behave to the point where I wondered if I could do this too.

Although I was convinced, I also felt regretful because I thought I had quite a bit of fun with the broadcast. Well, it might be so, seeing as he is thinking about capturing Yoon-hee and creating hidden camera content right away.

“Dahyun’s strength is a bit weak, but she doesn’t always do that, right?”

“Of course we’ll make it stronger.”

“also.”

Lee Se-hee nodded and moved on to talking about the Equal Application Act. People complimented me on how well I framed it, but honestly, I didn’t even calculate it that far.

Because my thoughts were theoretical in the first place. I was just thinking that if I was going to propose a bill, it wouldn’t be a good idea to gain at least some field experience.

At least one or two people have to die for you to realize that you have gone to a truly dangerous place.

“But the situation is not good as the number of enemies increases.”

In the past, I would have said just kill everyone and that would be enough.

I am also a person who does development.

I know that the more enemies I kill, the more allies I keep alive, the better.

“What should I do?”

“The best thing is to increase the number of National Assembly members who follow Mr. Junho. “They reflect Junho’s opinions in the National Assembly.”

“Should we even reflect it?”

“For minimal defense. The essence is not to propose legislation that will harm Mr. Junho.”

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, this is a world where opposition is achieved for the sake of opposition. Lee Se-hee’s words were worth listening to. Even if I don’t necessarily participate, I know I need it.

I know this because I am a politician and have been close to the president. I know that it is a useful tool if there is someone who can understand my feelings.

“I feel like I’m being used.”

“It’s not about exploitation, it’s about joining forces. Let me help you.”

Lee Se-hee says she will eat the pheasant, eat its eggs, and use strategies.

I accepted it because it was no harm to me.

However, there was one thing to point out regarding his relationship with Lee Se-hee.

“And will you be okay?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Lee Se-chan.”

“······.”

“I know there are a lot of rumors going around. “If it’s burdensome, you can keep your distance for a while.”

When Lee Se-hee asked me if it was my fault for making Lee Se-chan a fool, I was willing to answer honestly.

He may have crossed the line in front of me, but I thought Lee Se-hee’s future would be solid only if he disappeared.

In fact, that idea still remains the same.

However, Lee Se-hee’s thoughts may be different.

“My brother definitely has love and hate. As I became an adult and achieved success, the hatred towards me deepened. I thought it was going to be a problem, but I didn’t have the courage to break the chain once and for all. So I’m grateful for the current situation.”

Sehee Lee stared into my eyes.

“I don’t care how Junho behaved. “I will just look ahead and live in the present.”

“That’s great.”

“It’s cool. It’s a bit of escapism mixed in. And are you crazy? Stay away from the goose that lays golden eggs. I can never give it to you. “It’s mine.”

Suddenly, it looks like someone owns it.

“My true feelings came out without me knowing.”

Lee Se-hee, who was laughing awkwardly, brought up another topic as if to change the mood.

“Now that the Big Bang series has become established, are there any other good business opportunities?”

“well.”

As for the Big Bang series, Lee Se-hee brought it back to life when we didn’t even know if it had business value.

To begin with, I have no business sense.

But Lee Se-hee pursued me persistently, her eyes sparkling to the point of being burdensome.

“I’m sure there will be. “Junho is the goose that lays golden eggs!”

“Okay, I’ll think about it.”

···For some reason, it felt like I had to think of this even if it wasn’t there.

Rather than fading away as time passed, the response to the interview was growing brighter. Current members of the National Assembly as well as commentators on TV were putting their feet up one by one.

There were people who criticized me, and there were also people who criticized me for making a hasty move in the National Assembly.

He informed Cheon Myeong-guk that a war of nerves was going on behind the scenes between the Blue House and the National Assembly.

Power is a very scary thing. Even though the Blue House and the National Assembly are on the same side, the war of nerves was ultimately a struggle for leadership.

“This is why it’s easier to kill them all.”

A lot of things are being said, but of course my thoughts haven’t changed.

If you are going to enact a law, field experience is essential. That’s why I put in a condition. I decided to experience the field flow and support it if I felt the same way. If you have a noble heart and not any other intention, you will come forward.

However, looking at the situation, it seemed that the intention was not pure.

It was time to turn off the attention as the ball had been passed over.

A member of the National Assembly from the ruling party came to visit me.

Normally I would refuse to meet, but the name was familiar and my intuition strangely encouraged me to meet him, so I accepted.

Where did you see this name?

“It is an honor to meet Mr. Choi Jun-ho. “My name is Yoo Joong-ho.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Yoo Joong-ho is a young member of the ruling party who was elected and re-elected at the age of 35. Considering that people in their early 40s are said to be young people, I get the feeling that the National Assembly is stagnant.

Superhumans decline as they age, but members of the National Assembly accumulate and become monsters.

“I came here this time because of the Equal Application Act. “I’m worried that you might have negative thoughts about the ruling party.”

“Isn’t it led by the ruling party?”

“Not everyone thinks the same. “I think differently.”

Did you just come here to appeal to that?

Then you can give me the answer you want.

“I have no regrets with the ruling party.”

“Then I’m glad. Some people who are trapped in old memories think of the awakened as something to be controlled, but I think we have to go together.”

“okay.”

“I believe that supporting the awakened is for the future of the country. Furthermore, it would be good if awakened people actively participate in national management.”

Yoo Joong-ho revealed that although he himself does not have great talent, he is an awakened person who has reached level 5. But when I guess, it seems like it’s level 6, not level 5?

He emphasized that he was an awakened person like me, and then cleverly criticized the lawmakers who proposed the Equal Application Act, promoting the idea of an awakened person.

At this level, the ideologies are on a completely different level, so why are they in the same party?

Whether I questioned it or not, Yoo Joong-ho expressed his thoughts with enthusiasm.

“The Awakened are oppressed. Due to the current social atmosphere, we are losing opportunities to demonstrate our capabilities. So I…”

“ah.”

I remembered it while watching him speak passionately.

I wondered why the face seemed familiar, and it turned out to be a familiar face.

I once saw Yoo Joong-ho’s face on TV, about 10 years older than he is now.

Yoo Joong-ho was a future presidential candidate.

He was a spy for the League.

This turned Korea upside down.

The prey walked into the net on its own.

Yoo Joong-ho, who did not understand my reaction, looked puzzled.

“Why are you doing that?”

“It’s nice to meet you.”
