Theatrical Regression Life - Chapter 217

Episode 217:

Knock Talk.

The man who knocked on the water tank pipe in front of me muttered softly.

“So there was no noise?”

The person standing quietly next to the man who was looking into the water tank emitting blue light nodded. There was a straight, heterogeneous smile on the corners of his mouth.

“Yes, Director. As you know, he is an experienced person…”

“It will finally be quiet. “That bastard, Oh Seong, Oh Seong… Why all the fuss just because of the chairman position?”

“That being said, I believe you were quite involved in this matter.”

“Huh, has Secretary Jeong started talking a lot?”

The man, Lee Jae-hyung, looked back at the person he called ‘Secretary Jeong’ with a mischievous smile.

“It’s time to leave.”

“Haha… I should go home soon too.”

“It’s a shame, if Secretary Jeong goes, who will I rely on?”

“If you wish, I can call another messenger.”

“Ugh… I like Jung Eun-woo. “Why don’t you plan on staying any longer?”

“I want to do that too, but…”

Secretary Jeong bent his eyes and met Lee Jae-hyung’s gaze with a face that seemed naive at first glance.

“The boss is calling me too.”

“Oh my, what a waste.”

“If you really want, you can negotiate directly with the boss.”

“It’s okay, it’s not like I don’t know this floor.”

Sigh.

Jaehyung Lee got up from his seat and stood in front of Secretary Jeong.

The simple gesture, like brushing off dust from one’s shoulder, showed arrogance that he had no intention of hiding. It was the appearance of a person who treated humans as objects rather than humans.

“You’re going to be abandoned someday, right?”

“…Haha….”

“If I pick it up then, I’ll spend less money and it’ll be good… Good.”

Despite Lee Jae-hyung’s actions, Secretary Jeong’s smile remained the same.

“When that time comes, please take care of me.”

“Until then, you will be the master’s noble right hand man…?”

“You know this floor well, don’t you?”

“Oh, spin around.”

Jaehyung Lee grinned and stepped back with his hands raised in surrender. Lee Jae-hyung’s frivolous laugh seemed infinitely light, and Jeong Eun-woo continued to smile straight, but none of them were truly happy. They both knew it.

Lee Jae-hyung, lying down on the soft sofa in front of the water tank, said with a very friendly face.

“But you know that our strong friendship hasn’t expired yet, right?”

“aha.”

Secretary Jeong asked, narrowing his eyes.

“Are you talking about your younger brother?”

“That’s right. “I can’t let Jeong Eun-woo go until it’s over. What should I do?”

“You don’t have to worry. Of course I looked into it. The person my younger brother was looking for was also an employee under our company… and since he had little experience, I was worried that he might cause trouble. “Secretary Lee Jeong worked hard not to offend our customers.”

“That’s really an exaggeration to say that it would have ended with just one phone call.”

“I would appreciate it if you could see this as a deep friendship.”

Jeong Eun-woo, who shrugged his shoulders jokingly, dragged a wooden chair and sat down across from Lee Jae-hyung. There was a long table in the middle, so we couldn’t sit close together, but at least we were spaced apart so we could make eye contact at the same eye level.

Seeing that shameless appearance, Lee Jae-hyung distorted his face and muttered.

“Ah… I don’t like this kind of thing.”

“Where did the friendship go?”

“It’s a bit scary…? Thanks to this, my judgment was a bit messed up, but I’ll still accept this low-level performance. “Is our Secretary Jeong leaving the company soon?”

“Haha thank you.”

“so?”

Jeong Eun-woo smiled softly at Jae-hyung Lee’s question.

“It looked like it was getting ready to cut off its tail.”

“What is that rat Jaeheon uses?”

“Yes, it looks like your younger brother gave you quite a bit of money… He was thinking of going through several places and eventually moving to Beijing. “I didn’t even know that I was cutting off my own waist, not my tail.”

“So when did it start to become crowded with people there?”

“The more people there are, the easier it may be to hide. Since it was a low-income group, there were only a few ships that would accept it. Still, I never thought about staying in Korea… I guess the medicine my brother gave me was quite sweet. “I didn’t go into it too deeply because it was the customer’s situation.”

“Oh my, oh my, Jaeheon… I can’t believe I’m using someone like that.”

Lee Jae-hyung made a somewhat sad expression and slapped his forehead. He lowered his hand to stroke his face and continued speaking with a pitiful expression as if he was thinking of his younger brother.

“Are you ready to catch the rat?”

“It’s sad that we’re having to immerse a family member who is our bloodline… but it’s not someone else’s request, it’s the director’s request, so what can we do? The boat crew was prepared. As soon as my younger brother’s work is finished, I will quietly take him away. I think customers can come comfortably.”

“okay. Still, Jaeheon said he would put his wits to it and write it down, so I guess I should let him finish it… I don’t know what he wants to do.”

“Shall we find out more?”

“That’s enough.”

Jaehyung Lee rummaged through his chest, looking for a cigarette.

“Have you thrown your money anywhere else?”

“Haha, you know… We don’t tell other customers about their wallet situation.”

“Oh really. “It’s so fucking tight.”

As he put a cigarette in his mouth, Jeong Eun-woo smiled slightly and asked.

“Do you need a light?”

“Okay, I’m not smoking these days.”

“I hope you smoked it yesterday too.”

“The diet starts tomorrow. It’s the same thing as quitting smoking. “I’ll just keep it in my mouth.”

“What would I dare say to the director?”

“You do it, Jeong Eun-woo. “It’s so scary.”

Well done.

Lee Jae-hyung bit down on a cigarette and continued speaking with a grin.

“It’s annoying.”

“I just ask you to be kind to me.”

“This kind of thing is annoying… huh.”

Jaehyung Lee, who put the cigarette pack in the inside pocket of his suit, asked again with a frivolous smile.

“Then what on earth did Secretary Jeong put so much effort into? All you have to do is figure out the rat route? That was Jeong Eun-woo’s family to begin with. “Can you say it’s an effort?”

“It can’t be. “He said there was no need to go into too much detail, so I simply found out about the people my brother was meeting.”

“…is that what you mean? Why are you saying that these days… I’ve been meeting all kinds of strange people? The guy who drinks soup… Oh, that’s right. Did you say the company employees came first? “There was a florist and a doctor, right… And there was also a teacher who looked like an idiot…”

“As expected, Director, you have a good memory.”

“Sir, you already knew that. “What on earth did you try?”

“Aha, you didn’t know.”

Jeong Eun-woo opened his eyes wide and said.

“I heard your younger brother brought in a dog these days.”

“…dog? “Wolwolrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr?”

Lee Jae-hyung, who muttered as if joking, gently stroked the corner of his mouth and wiped his smile.

“There’s no way he’s a real bastard.”

“Yes.”

“name.”

“Hong Gyeong-jun. Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Strong Team 1. “I’m 33 years old and I’m a lieutenant.”

“…You’re young for a lieutenant, aren’t you? Am I possible? “Did you get some kickbacks?”

“no.”

“Then what are you? Are you an elite?”

“It’s elite. I graduated from police academy using the fastest, ideal, and most efficient route I could think of without any waste. “It is said that he entered the violent crime scene almost immediately because his reputation was good and his will was strong.”

“Hmm…”

Lee Jae-hyung took out the cigarette from his mouth and crossed his arms, frowning exaggeratedly.

“A bastard of that caliber is playing with Jaeheon? why?”

“Aren’t you ignoring your younger brother too much?”

“No, no. Hey Secretary Jeong. It’s not because you don’t know. “If you’re that vicious, you’re not the kind of bastard who risks his life for the name of a detective.”

“For the most part, yes.”

“Then there must be some benefit to be gained from it, or at least some self-satisfaction… Why is such a bastard playing with our Jaeheon? “It doesn’t make sense.”

He rolled his eyes for a moment and then muttered.

“…That bastard says money is tight these days? Or do you have a somewhat promiscuous private life?”

“His personal life is clean, but his financial situation appears to be below average.”

“Then with money… Ah, even if you say that, it’s a bit strange.”

“There is a story that he goes around with a certain police officer these days.”

“Is it a girl?”

“It’s Yeojani.”

“What is he doing again?”

“It’s a typical one-day puppy.”

“….”

Lee Jae-hyung thought for a moment and muttered softly.

“…Has our youngest grown up this much already…? Wow, Jaeheon knows love.”

“What are you saying? “If anyone hears it, they will think that the youngest child is about 10 years old.”

“No, he actually ruined our relationship… I thought he was just an asshole… I guess it wasn’t that bad. I also know how to grab and shake people. “You’re all grown up.”

Then he lifted his head.

“No, no. It’s less big. “It’s less big.”

“Haha….”

“Huh? Do you know, Jeong Eun-woo? “Our friendship isn’t over yet?”

“I would appreciate it if you could tell me that there is still time left on the contract.”

“Anyway, you know it’s not right, right? Understand?”

“I’ve already saved a ship and prepared people, so why worry…”

“Secretary Jeong always surprises me.”

“I will take it as a compliment.”

“Unlucky.”

Jaehyung Lee, who was giggling softly while saying that, touched the corner of his mouth and muttered.

“…what on earth does our Jaeheon want to do?”

The group of people I met and met was very diverse. The nearest Osung employees and the owner of a flower shop near the company. A doctor at a hospital who had a record of stopping by one day. The owner of a soup restaurant and his son. Aside from that, he seemed to be meeting with the police and asking them to do various things, so it seemed like he wasn’t done with what he wanted to do yet.

But age, appearance, gender. I couldn’t see anything in common. If he’s even thinking about smuggling even the smallest detail to China, it means he’s preparing something quite grandiose…

“What do you think, our Jeong Eun-woo?”

“I’m not sure yet, but… a thought occurred to me.”

“what.”

“It was exactly like customers choosing delivery food.”

As Jeong Eun-woo smiled and answered, Lee Jae-hyung even clapped with the hand that was still holding the cigarette and laughed. After laughing for a while, he sobbed and rested his chin on the armrest of the sofa.

“Oh my… if I eat something like that, I’ll get an upset stomach.”

“No problem.”

“That’s all that comes to mind right now. “It seems like you’re looking for someone who will accept you?”

“Someone who will accept it.”

“Why did you say you ate that soup and rice this time? You said the atmosphere was really nice. I don’t know about Secretary Jeong, but my Jae-heon still lacks affection even at his age. Plus, he has a bad temper. “How common is someone who can accept a guy like that?”

“aha.”

“Mr. Ha… you laughed for a long time. Really, how would our Jaeheon live without me or my sister? Hey, the idiot in our house. “Because the child isn’t very meticulous…”

“That’s why you said you would let me know.”

“right.”

Jaehyung Lee rubbed the cigarette between his fingers.

“Now I’m too big to be a student.”

“….”

“I have to let you know.”

Jaehyung Lee said, crinkling the cigarette he was holding in his hand.

“It’s been a while since I felt the sea breeze. “It’s good, right?”

* * *

“…Chief?”

Lee Jae-heon looked at Yoon Garam at the soft call filled with worry. She asked carefully while caressing the bouquet that Lee Jae-heon had ordered.

“Are you okay? “You didn’t seem to be in a good mood…”

“…It’s okay.”

“Aren’t you hurt somewhere?”

“Absolutely not. It doesn’t hurt and…”

Hold on.

Lee Jae-heon, pressing his throbbing temple, even answered.

“Maybe someone will tell my story.”

I bet my wealth and fame on the fact that it’s your little brother.
