The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 212

A modern bar with quiet music.
I was waiting for Park Jang-mok to move with Choi Jong-hyuk.
Since we couldn’t sit in the store empty-handed, we each ordered a drink, but neither I nor he touched the drink.
Well, who would leisurely sip a cocktail in this situation?
‘Hmm…’
I took out my phone and checked the time.
It was almost 3 a.m., the appointed time, and Director Park Jang-mok had not yet appeared.
“Is this the right place?”
“yes yes. “I’m sure this is where we talked about this matter.”
“But why aren’t you coming…”
I’m afraid to get the words out.
“CEO.”
The employee who had been waiting outside hurriedly approached me.
“Im here.”
“…All right.”
I immediately turned my gaze towards Choi Jong-hyuk.
“Just do as I tell you. “Be sure to turn on your cell phone recorder.”
“Are you really going to give me extenuating circumstances if I just do as I’m told?”
“Well… that depends on you.”
He answered firmly and immediately moved to a far away place.
A distance that you can’t see, but can hear your voice if you concentrate.
As I stood there looking at the door, he finally appeared.
“Director, here we are.”
“okay. “I’m a little late because I didn’t catch a taxi.”
Director Park Jang-mok.
One of Song Cheol-sik’s line of directors who tried to oust President Park In-beom and seize power within the association during the Ability Dimension Association.
Of course, most of them were cut off one after another during the headquarters reform, but he was lucky enough to survive as he was just holding his position until then.
As it was, Ma just survived, but after merging with Karma Corporation, its influence began to rise rapidly.
Of course, he did not carry out a huge project or win a contract that would instantly change his position.
It was just that at that point, there were no people left stronger than him.
‘Is this why I’m so crazy…’
I can’t explain it other than just saying he’s a lucky guy.
He’s also a very damn good guy.
In any case, as my position increased, it was natural for me to become a member of this evaluation committee.
Of course, if I had known in advance that he was in collaboration with the International Association, I would have done whatever it took to get him killed before that.
“You came alone, right?”
“yes yes.”
“How is the situation at headquarters? “What about the police investigation?”
“We haven’t started a full-scale investigation yet… I think we’ll start tomorrow at the latest.”
I kept my gaze forward and opened my ears as much as possible.
So far, the conversation was continuing as I instructed.
“Anyway… how do you plan to find the head of the headquarters?”
“Is there a way? “We need to release people.”
“Wouldn’t that be a bit dangerous? The police will soon begin a search. If you release someone hastily, you might get noticed for no reason…”
“…”
Director Park Jang-mok saved the answer.
Choi Jong-hyuk took advantage of that opportunity to ask another question.
“Even if we find it first… what do you plan to do next? I can’t even report this now. “But there is no justification for persuading him to return.”
That question was one of the things I was instructed to ask Director Park Jang-mok.
A situation where a knife comes into your hands.
If you try to solve an unexpected crisis, you will inevitably bring out the cards you are hiding.
A scandal they spread.
Kim Min-ju got caught up in it.
Until now, it was just a rumor of unknown origin, but everything went wrong when Kim Min-ju went missing.
Now that it has become a case that everyone is watching, it is no longer possible to hide behind anonymity forever.
Furthermore, if the police come forward, their tail will surely be stepped on.
In order to avoid that, we must somehow clear up the incident before it escalates further.
And what matters is the method.
If Director Park Jang-mok really comes up with a way to solve the case in this situation, it will be the loss he has been hiding all this time.
Because it will become a link with the international association.
“…there is a way.”
Finally, Director Park Jang-mok slowly opened his mouth.
I held my breath and concentrated on his words.
“come in.”
At that moment, Director Park Jang-mok turned his head toward the store door and gestured toward someone.
Soon, several men dressed in rough clothes approached Director Park Jang-mok.
“hello!”
Men who looked like neighborhood gangsters bowed towards Choi Jong-hyuk.
“These people…?”
“Former hunters. “Now I’m disqualified and managing a local club.”
My eyebrows twitched at those words.
A gang made up of former hunters?
‘Not the International Association…?’
I chewed my teeth hard.
This was a completely different development than I expected.
I thought I was going to ask the International Association for help, but…
‘Why on earth are they popping out here…?’
It was at that time that I was muttering to myself.
“Now wait a minute…!”
Choi Jong-hyuk opened his mouth urgently.
“No matter what, how can I trust these people…”
“Hey Choi Jong-hyuk.”
At that moment, Director Park Jang-mok’s eyes sparkled.
“Do you know who introduced these people?”
“…yes?”
“He is a member of the Future Democratic Party.”
“What is that…?”
My ears reacted violently to the third person appearing again.
Are you a member of the National Assembly this time?
“You said you made a deal with the International Association. Actually, they didn’t contact me directly. “I first contacted him to ask if there was anyone at the headquarters that could be useful, and he put me in touch.”
“Then, in this case, he…”
“No, he doesn’t know about this incident. “The order to drop Kim Min-ju was also given by the International Association.”
Director Park Jang-mok gulped down the cocktail in front of him as if his throat was burning.
okay.
That’s how it happened.
‘Now I can see the connection…’
I tried my best to hide my smile and continued to listen to their conversation.
“When I contacted them on my way back home, they introduced me to these guys. Since they have no affiliation or connections, we can’t catch them and there’s no risk of being stepped on. It’s perfect for something like this. Above all, he gets the job done clearly.”
“….”
Choi Jong-hyuk’s expression showed embarrassment.
The reaction was that they had never expected that things would get this far.
Well, that was the same for me too.
I never thought there would be another tail hiding.
“If we find it first, you can anonymously report it to the police. Searching for missing people is going to take priority anyway. If only the head of the headquarters is found, the investigation into the instigator will fade away. We just have to hold on until then.”
“There’s no way that’s possible…”
“Do you know what I felt most painfully while coming to this place?”
Director Park Jang-mok widened his eyes and asked Choi Jong-hyuk.
“As long as you endure, you will win. Anyway, once they find Kim Min-ju, the police’s job is done. Of course, we will continue to look for the instigator internally… but how long will that last?”
“….”
“Gossip like this dies down quickly anyway. People in our country are especially like that. So we just have to hold our breath and hold on like we’re dead. Do you understand?”
“…All right.”
“Ugh, what the fuck is this? That should have been done to a certain extent. “This doesn’t happen because we push recklessly.”
“….”
“If you understand, go now. “I’m going back to Japan by plane tomorrow morning.”
“Are you going again?”
“If someone who went on an overseas business trip during the review period returns home as soon as something happens, they won’t be suspected.”
Choi Jong-hyuk nodded.
At that time, Director Park Jang-mok stood up first and was about to leave the store.
“By the way, Director.”
Choi Jong-hyuk called him again.
“That person is a member of the Future Democratic Party. “What kind of person are you?…”
Choi Jong-hyuk asked vaguely, and Park Jang-mok raised an eyebrow.
“You know what to do with that.”
“Oh no. As someone who is on the same boat, if I knew…”
“Hey, Choi Jong-hyuk.”
At that moment his voice changed.
“I know your fractions. You just have to do what I tell you. Don’t be presumptuous and try to overlook other things. huh?”
“…All right.”
“Well, if this goes well, I’ll take care of the scouting for the International Association, so don’t worry.”
Director Park Jang-mok left those words behind and turned his back again.
That moment.
Beep-.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
“What is it?”
“Uh huh.”
“…what?”
“Are you sure about that?”
“…okay. Just hang up first.”
After a short phone call, he turned to Choi Jong-hyuk.
“Jonghyuk Choi.”
“yes yes?”
“Director Kim Min-ju.”
It was once that his sharp gaze penetrated Choi Jong-hyuk.
“I heard you’ve never gone missing?”
“….”
Choi Jong-hyuk kept his mouth shut at that dagger.
‘Tsk, I got caught sooner than expected…’
Did they hastily ask someone inside to find out?
“What should we do now…”
Finally, the moment he opened his mouth once more, his pupils widened.
Just stand there like that for a while.
fault-!
Soon, he must have sensed something and immediately kicked down the store door and started running away.
Of course, I was just looking at that.
Have you ever encountered a tiger while trying to avoid a fox?
Because the outside he ran away to was a tiger’s den.

“Fuck!”
Something was strange.
The world’s Kim Min-ju has disappeared.
Isn’t that something that never happened in the first place?
Then why did Choi Jong-hyuk lie like that?
Could it be that someone else caught me?
If you get caught, how far will it go?
Did you find out that you were also involved? Maybe even the international association thing?
‘Or else…’
Was the conversation just a bait to draw you out?
“Fuck really!!”
Director Park Jang-mok’s mind was filled with all kinds of questions.
In the meantime, I was just running forward without knowing where I was going.
But that didn’t last long either.
puck-!
He suddenly collided with someone who came out and fell to the floor.
“Oh my god…! “You’re not keeping your eyes open?!”
“He was crying.”
Someone lifted up his heavily pressed hood and opened his mouth.
“The head of the world’s operations headquarters was crying in the bathroom?”
“you you…!”
She was none other than Planning Director Han Yu-bin, who was waiting for Director Park Jang-mok to arrive.
“How are you here…!”
“I’ve met most of the bastards… but I really can’t forgive you.”
A cold voice and cold eyes.
Director Park Jang-mok’s hands began to tremble without realizing it as he saw the sight that made his whole body freeze.
Eventually, as I trudged towards him, he stretched out his hand and shouted.
“That’s why! What can you do! You think your other things will be safe if you touch me here?! “Unless you want to be kicked out, too…!”
“doesn’t care.”
“…what?”
“It doesn’t matter. “Whether I get kicked out or not.”
Han Yubin smiled.
[Unique Skill: Hyperpanic Berserker]
Eventually, I raised my fist towards him and was about to slam it straight into his face.
“Uh huh.”
From afar, Kim Jun-woo stopped her again.
“You promised. “I decided not to kill him.”
“…I have no intention of killing you.”
“If you hit it like that, you’ll die. “That person is an ordinary person.”
Han Yu-bin had no choice but to withdraw her fist.
At the same time, director Park Jang-mok walked hurriedly toward Kim Jun-woo.
“CEO Kim! You’ve arrived at the right time! Well, that bitch dares to touch me…!”
Ttduk-.
At that moment, Director Park Jang-mok’s right arm was completely turned outward.
“Kwaaaaah!!!”
An ear-piercing scream.
Nevertheless, Kim Jun-woo did not give Park Jang-mok a single glance.
“Do you understand?”
He opened his mouth in a calm voice towards Han Yu-bin.
“You shouldn’t try to solve anything so violently. look. “How obedient will you become if you just break your limbs like this?”
“….”
Han Yubin nodded expressionlessly.
Meanwhile, Director Park Jang-mok was still struggling in pain.
“Are you sick?”
Only then did Kim Jun-woo make eye contact with Park Jang-mok, who was struggling in pain.
“Well, don’t feel too unfair.”
Kim Jun-woo patted his broken right arm and continued speaking.
“Because you were the one who touched my right arm first.”
“Ugh….”
“Anyway, congratulations on your retirement. Director Park Jang-mok.”
“CEO Kim… I will explain everything…”
“And this…”
Before he could say anything.
Ttduk-.
“Kwaaaaaa!!”
This time his right leg returned.
“It’s a retirement gift.”
The pain-filled screams and Kim Jun-woo’s calm voice rang out together.
