I hope you are dumbfounded by the sudden story for a moment.
“Why are we suddenly covering the cleaning team…?”
I opened my mouth first.
Reporter Koo Koo-chan then looked rather surprised.
“Eh? Don’t you know? “The cleaning team is causing quite a stir on the Internet these days because of the statement made the day before yesterday!”
“I know that, but… does it usually get covered just because it’s an issue?”
“Well, it means that people are paying a lot of attention. Especially Moon So-yeon of the cleaning team….”
“…big.”
When I urgently noticed, Goo Koo-chan quickly covered his mouth.
It’s not a bad story, but it’s not something you should say in front of yourself.
Fortunately, it seems that he was also aware of it.
“Oh well. But what… There is a lot of talk about the cleaning team being a powerful team and being treated well by the association, but there is not much accurate information. “No one really knows anything about the cleaning team.”
Goo Koo-chan continued his explanation slowly again.
“It just so happened to be an issue, so I thought it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to publish an article featuring the cleaning team. I also want to let you know what kind of team we are and what kind of work we do. But what… we couldn’t talk about it…”
Soon, a sigh so deep that the ground trembled.
His expression quickly became deathly serious.
The association is a place where a lot of information comes and goes.
So, no matter how much permission was given from above, reporting was impossible unless the parties involved agreed.
In other words, if we refused here and now, reporter Koo Koo-chan would have to go home empty-handed even though he had permission to report.
We looked at each other.
“Well, I think it’s okay. It would be nice if people knew about our work. Do you know anything? “If the article is good, I wonder if we can hire new employees.”
Moon So-yeon opened her mouth first.
Meanwhile, Team Leader Park’s reaction was negative.
“Well… I’m a little worried. It’s not something people will really like, is it? “Wouldn’t it just make the perception worse?”
“ah! You don’t have to worry about that part. “Even though it’s a bit difficult, the team atmosphere is good, and I’m treated well by the association. I’m planning to mix things up and send it out as positively as possible.”
Don’t miss it, Joongang Ilbo reporter Koo Sang-chan said.
The reporter says he will lie out loud.
“How are you, Junwoo?”
A situation where the pros and cons are divided.
Soyeon Moon asked my opinion for the last time.
“First of all, I agree with Team Leader Park, but…”
“Really? If that’s the case for Junwoo… I’m sorry, but reporting will be a little difficult…”
“Wait a minute. Wait.”
I urgently cut off Moon So-yeon.
“I mean, maybe. When an article about a certain job is published, does the number of applicants really increase?”
“Hmm… I’m not 100% sure. “There are cases where people are attracted to jobs that seem easy or do not require special expertise for a limited time.”
“okay.”
I smiled without realizing it.
However, Goo Koo-chan had an expression that did not please him at all.
“But… honestly, it’s not a very good phenomenon. They’re just taking it easy and saying I’ll do something like this. Of course, I will do my best to prevent that from happening…”
“No.”
“…yes?”
I continued speaking in a serious voice.
“Please show it as easily as possible. It makes me feel like I can do this too. Is that possible?”
“Like I said, that’s such a good thing…”
“You can cover it if you can.”
“If cleaning is difficult, how difficult can it be?”
A handshake offered as soon as you finish speaking.
That’s how the coverage was concluded.
[Excessive bleeding – unlock conditions: 1 new member of the dungeon cleaning team]
At the same time, an opportunity to unlock was opened.

The headquarters director’s office has a heavy atmosphere.
“Why did you give me permission to report?”
Team leader Soo-yong Lee opened his mouth insinuatingly toward Director Min-cheol Seo, who was continuously clutching his head.
“…what?”
Then, a sharp gaze suddenly appeared.
“Since when did you criticize what I do? why. “Do you feel sorry for me?”
“Oh, no, it’s not like that…”
Director Seo Min-cheol was particularly sharper than usual.
Lee Su-yong lowered his head and quickly curled his tail.
“Ha… How is it that nothing happens?”
Eventually, Seo Min-cheol’s deep sigh echoed through the headquarters director’s office.
It’s not that I haven’t, but there have been a few things that have been bothering me recently.
The most troublesome thing is, of course, the cleaning team.
At least, I thought that this accident would break the momentum.
Either Kim Jun-woo took responsibility alone or the cleaning team was punished as a group. Either way was fine. Please, as long as you keep quiet.
But who would have guessed that Kim Min-ju would intervene….
‘How can they find the culprit there… I heard that all the CCTV cameras were destroyed.’
In the end, one messy statement of position only ended up making others look good.
Watching people talking about powerful people and other things on the Internet is making me feel like I’m getting stomach cramps that I never had before.
And Operation 2 Team.
That team was created with the assumption that it would disintegrate in the first place.
The reason I appointed Kim Min-ju as team leader was to only make things better…
He was an inexperienced team leader in a team of only 17 people with all limbs cut off.
I expected that performance would naturally hit rock bottom and that if I just left it alone, it would eventually break down on its own.
Of course, that prediction was spectacularly wrong.
‘Who on earth came up with this plan?…’
Director Seo Min-cheol stared intently at the two teams’ operation plan on his desk.
According to this plan, a team of only 17 people can carry out an operation of 50 people.
No, it’s not at a level that’s possible…
It’s beyond the 1st operation team.
Team 1’s performance is the performance of Director Seo Min-cheol.
At least there is no one at headquarters who doesn’t know that Lee Soo-yong is in their line. He is a guy who was put in with great difficulty even by the operation team, but if he completely ruins his performance, what will happen to his reputation?
“Something… seems to have gone terribly wrong from the beginning.”
“So we need to press it in a more reliable way! “How long can I trust Kim Jun-woo’s support and let him go out…”
“I don’t know, fuck. “I’ve given up on those bastards now.”
“yes…?”
Team leader Lee Soo-yong, who had been raising his voice as much as he could, sounded helpless.
“That guy, Kim Jun-woo… Aside from being the president of the association, the human being is just a idiot. “I don’t have the confidence to touch him anymore.”
“Well, I think so too, but… it’s still an organization with top and bottom, so there’s no need for the head of the department to bow down…”
Seo Min-cheol shook his head.
“Usually. “When you look at someone’s actions, you can see their purpose, and when you hear them speak, you can see their justification… but that bastard can’t see either.”
“Isn’t the purpose obvious? “You’ve been working hard for the cleaning team ever since.”
“So that’s why. “Why is that crazy guy going through all this trouble for a cleaning team that has no purpose?”
“That…”
There was no way Lee Soo-yong could answer that question.
“Anyway, it’s best not to touch the asshole. If we don’t touch it, it will stay still. If you think about it, we ended up in this situation because we messed up first for no reason.”
“…If you really have to ask, that’s true.”
“It doesn’t seem like they are trying to overthrow the headquarters like Lee A-young did. “Let’s just leave them alone to play.”
Seo Min-cheol tilted his head back.
It’s a hell of a hierarchy, and I won’t touch a single hair of yours from now on, so I just hope you’ll just stay quiet.
Seo Min-cheol sincerely wished that.
“So…”
“What else?”
“I don’t know why they gave permission to report on it…. Even so, the cleaning team is getting quite a good response on the Internet these days, so wouldn’t it be even more exciting if a good article came out here?”
“Oh, what else can I say? don’t worry. “That can’t be possible.”
When Seo Min-cheol answered immediately, Lee Soo-yong blinked.
“Think about it. The gas truck goes into the dungeon, cuts up monster corpses, and cleans up the blood without even knowing who it is. “If you want to cover a job like that, do you think the article will be good?”
“Ah…”
The expression on his face that he finally understood.
As Seo Min-cheol said, no matter how much you package it, in the end, a cleaner is just a cleaner.
A reporter with a clear eye would never be able to produce an article that meets people’s interests.
“I gave permission for the coverage simply because I wanted to use this opportunity to learn more about fractions. “It doesn’t mean much.”
“…All right.”
“If you understand, now you should turn off the attention of the cleaning team and focus on your own performance. It’s soon settlement season. “I will talk to the control team and give them as much information as possible, so just prepare a proper plan.”
“yes. thank you.”
At that time, Lee Soo-yong nodded and said hello.
“ah.”
“…Why are you doing that?”
Seo Min-cheol’s eyes narrowed.
“Did I tell the cleaning team that I was covering the story…?”
***
In the end, reporter Koo Sang-chan decided to stay with us for the time being.
It was quite sudden, but the story ended well anyway.
Before entering the dungeon, Team Leader Park gave Koo Koo-chan some precautions.
At the same time, he provided me with equipment and even advised me never to travel alone.
Also, try not to interfere with your work as much as possible.
Reporter Koo Sang-chan swore that he would do his best to ensure that such a thing would never happen.
Well, he said that I could just treat him as someone who doesn’t exist and work as usual…
“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!” “Some monster!!”
“Oh, are you dead? Wow, you’re surprised… but I guess everyone is familiar with it? They have no fear. “If it were me, I wouldn’t even be able to touch it.”
“Hey, what is this?! This can’t be an artifact….”
“…Wow! “Wow!”
I’m shaking like crazy.
“But brother! Oh, can I call you brother? “How long have you been working on the cleaning team?”
“Wow really? I never imagined that I was a newbie! “Then what about Moon So-yeon?”
“2 years?! “Are you the most senior here?”
It’s really noisy. I
don’t know if I’m a good person, or if I’m just shameless…. Without
realizing it, my hand was getting stronger as I was mopping.
I thought that if I had to, I’d have to plug that guy’s snout with this mop… but
fortunately or unfortunately, that didn’t happen.
“…Oh, do I have to go further?”
“Oh no. it’s okay.”
“…yes.”
“….”
As the work progressed, Koo Koo-chan’s speaking volume decreased exponentially.
Not only did he talk less, but his expression also became increasingly hard.
It was very clear what that meant.
I opened my mouth in an exaggerated voice.
“ha ha ha. Today’s work is so easy and fun. “Isn’t that true for everyone?”
“That’s right. I want to work every day. Haha….”
“Hey~ Isn’t this really rewarding?”
Quirky action.
Team Leader Park seems a bit sincere.
Anyway, I looked at Koo Koo-chan’s thoughts once again.
“……haha.”
Damn it, it doesn’t even work.
Just by looking at him, he looks like he’s going to die from trouble.
It seemed that the content of the job was much more serious than I thought.
Well, no matter how fun you pretend to be, the work itself is not something people will like.
Moreover, since there were only three people, it was bound to look much busier and more difficult.
‘Maybe I should have waited until Han Sang-hyuk came back before doing it…’
Damn, Team Leader Park was right.
It looks like whatever image I had has been ruined.
