Chapter 441:
Yoo-hyun was certain as he watched Jo Hee Deok, who revealed his dark intentions without hesitation.
He was not someone who would back off just because he was given money.
He would obviously ask for more money if he was given ten thousand won.
If money could not solve the problem, the only way to deal with him for sure was to make him self-destruct.
It was then that Yoo-hyun saw an opportunity.
He saw peopleing out of the meeting room through the window.
The best thing to do here was to prevent him from noticing Jeong Da-hye, so Yoo-hyun spat out a word that would divert Jo Hee Deok’s attention.
“Let’s make the investment 1 billion won for now.”
“For now?”“Yes. It seems like a good business, so I’m willing to invest more if needed.”
“You have quite a skill. Haha.”
Yoo-hyun could catch Jo Hee Deok’s interest, but he could not avoid the eyes of the bodyguards who were watching from outside.
Squeak.
A bodyguard opened the door and approached Jo Hee Deok, bowing his head slightly.
“Boss.”
“Shh.”
Jo Hee Deok put his index finger on his mouth, and the surprised bodyguard whispered in his ear.
“She just came out.”
“Grr.”
It was obvious what Jo Hee Deok was thinking from his troubled expression.
He had a juicy prey in front of him, so he couldn’t easily go to Jeong Da-hye.
What if he just let it go for now?
He could execute the next n with the help of Manager Jung Woo-hyuk.
But unfortunately, Yoo-hyun’s n went wrong.
Jo Hee Deok got up from his seat and whispered to the bodyguards.
“You guys go and meet Jeong Da-hye separately. Just let her answer the phone.”
“Yes. We will do as you ordered.”
Yoo-hyun was sure that things got messed up from the sight of the leaving bodyguards.
Creak.
As Yoo-hyun got up, Jo Hee Deok smiled as if trying to reassure him.
“Haha. It’s nothing. Sit down.”
If he let those bodyguards go from here?
It could be a big blow to her, who had a weak position, just by the rumor spreading.
He had to stop it somehow.
Yoo-hyun quickly looked around.
He saw a bodyguard trying to leave the coffee shop door, and Manager Jung Woo-hyuk crossing the street outside the window.
There were people gathered at the nearby tables, chatting, and a CCTV was hanging in the corner.
As always, his hesitation was short and his judgment was fast.
“Sir, wait a minute.”
Yoo-hyun naturally approached him and grabbed his wrist.
“What are you doing?”
Before he could even ask, Yoo-hyun pulled his wrist and hit his own head with it.
“Ugh.”
Jo Hee Deok was surprised and hurt by Yoo-hyun’s sudden action, but the situation was different.
His hand clearly touched his head, but Yoo-hyun flew into the air.
It was like a scene from an action movie, where Yoo-hyun’s body flipped over a table in mid-air.
Bang bang bang.
ng ng ng.
The table fell over and the ss cups broke.
“Ahhhh!”
The people around screamed and the bodyguards ran over.
“Boss.”
“Oh my. Save me.”
Yoo-hyun rolled on the floor, attracting people’s attention.
Jo Hee Deok, who still didn’t understand what was going on, was bewildered.
“What the hell is this?”
Yoo-hyun got up and rushed at him again.
Dadadada.
The bodyguards instinctively blocked Jo Hee Deok’s front.
They just blocked him, but this time too, Yoo-hyun flew away.
Yoo-hyun swept through the flower bed that acted as a partition between the tables with his body this time.
Of course, he fell on a spot that wouldn’t hurt much.
Ssh ssh ssh ssh
But the effect was certain.
“Ahhhh!”
“Boss. Call the police. Call the police.”
People shouted frantically.
“You crazy bastard. Hey, deal with him quickly.”
Jo Hee Deok yelled in panic and the bodyguards rushed in.
“These gangsters. Don’t hurt people. I won’t let you get away with this.”
Even in the midst of this, Yoo-hyun incited the people who gathered around him.
When things got bigger, they would all be witnesses for him, so he needed to take care of them in advance.
The reaction was immediate.
“They’re running wild in broad daylight.”
“Look at that tattoo on his arm.”
As murmurs were heard from here and there, the bodyguards clenched their teeth and ran in.
“You rat bastard.”
Squeak.
It was then that Yoo-hyun saw Manager Jung Woo-hyuk entering the door.
Whirr.
He rolled his body and dodged the bodyguards’ moves, and ran towards Manager Jung Woo-hyuk.
“Manager, those guys.”
Boom.
At that moment, a bodyguard’s fist flew towards Yoo-hyun’s back of the head.
Yoo-hyun ducked his body and dodged it.
“Huh.”
Manager Jung Woo-hyuk, who was startled, instinctively shrank his body.
The fist that had momentum flew and hit the eye of Manager Shin Kwang Se, who was behind him.
Thud.
“Ugh.”
Manager Shin Kwang Se groaned and bowed his head.
Even in the midst of this, Yoo-hyun’s provocation continued.
“Who do you think these people are, you gangsters?”
The bodyguards with bloodshot eyes ran over, but they couldn’t catch Yoo-hyun.
Poor Manager Shin Kwang Se got hit again.
Then Jo Hee Deok flew over with his modernized hanbok.
“You bastard.”
Swoosh.
Yoo-hyun dodged him skillfully, and Jo Hee Deok tripped over.
Unfortunately, he fell on the face of Manager Shin Kwang Se, who was tangled up with the bodyguards.
Thump.
A dull sound of their heads colliding and Manager Shin Kwang Se’s scream were heard.
“Ahh.”
Drip drip drip.
“Blood, blood. These bastards.”
Manager Shin Kwang Se bled from his nose and got excited.
Bang bang bang.
Manager Jung Woo-hyuk fell into trouble as he was crushed by the bodyguards.
Buzz buzz.
The atmosphere of the coffee shop quickly turned into a mess.
Woo woo woo.
The police car arrived and the assault scene that happened in broad daylight was immediately cleared.
The people who were fighting in the coffee shop were all moved to the police station.
A littleter, the interrogation room on the second floor of the Seoul Jongno Police Station was crowded.
Buzz buzz.
In the somewhat noisy atmosphere, Yoo-hyun faced the police.
It was Inspector Ju Ik Hyun, who was in charge of the investigation.
On the right, there was Jo Hee Deok’s group, and on the left, there were the high-ranking officials who were assaulted.
Yoo-hyun calmly continued the exnation he had given several times before.
“As I told you, when I came to the coffee shop…”
“Is that all?”
He pretended to be in pain and grabbed the back of his neck as a bonus to the detective’s question.
“Yes. For now, ugh.”
As Yoo-hyun acted in pain, Inspector Ju Ik Hyun asked with a worried face.
“Do you want to go to the hospital first if you’re in pain?”
“No. I’m fine.”
Yoo-hyun said he was fine, but Inspector Ju Ik Hyun’s expression showed concern.
When he saw the CCTV footage earlier, it looked like he had suffered a serious injury.
He wanted to lighten his burden, so Inspector Ju Ik Hyun’s words sped up.
“So you were unterally assaulted, right? As confirmed by the CCTV?”
“Yes. That’s right. It was an unexpected attack, so I couldn’t stop it.”
As Yoo-hyun answered with difficulty, Jo Hee Deok jumped up.
“Hey. No way. He’s self-harming and ckmailing.”
At the same time, Manager Shin Kwang Se got up and hit him.
“You hit me. What are you going to do with my nose? What are you going to do?”
“When did I hit you? You came and hit yourself.”
“What did you say?”
The two started to finger-point at each other with Yoo-hyun in between.
They had been arguing since earlier and they were still doing it.
Manager Jung Woo-hyuk sat in the corner and chuckled quietly.
It was ridiculous to think about it again.
Jo Hee Deok’s big bodyguards seemed to have been well trained, as they never opened their mouths and buried their heads on the ground.
Behind those bodyguards, Jo Hee Deok red up.
“Where are you, you brat, talking to me?”
“Do you know who we are?”
Manager Shin Kwang Se was about to argue strongly, when Manager Jung Woo-hyuk opened his mouth.
“Manager Shin, sit down.”
“I’m sorry.”
With just one word, Manager Shin Kwang Se bowed his head.
Inspector Ju Ik Hyun nced at Manager Jung Woo-hyuk and turned his head.
He felt that he was not an ordinary person from the charisma he exuded.
He activated his unique intuition and decided to postpone his interrogation and looked at Yoo-hyun again.
“Hmm. So why were you assaulted? It doesn’t make sense that you just got hit. You know that too, right?”
“Yes. I know.”
“Then you have to exin it. Otherwise, I can’t sort it out.”
Yoo-hyun had been holding back his words to assess the situation.
He was afraid that Jeong Da-hye’s name would be revealed in the process of mentioning the assault.
But he knew that there was something fishy about Jo Hee Deok, who hadn’t mentioned Jeong Da-hye even once.
He didn’t know if his father’s debt was real, but it was certain that something illegal was involved.
It seemed like a good time to start, so Yoo-hyun opened his mouth.
“I don’t know if I can say this here. It involves public officials and the police.”
There was a word in his faintly uttered words that caught everyone’s attention.
Manager Shin Kwang Se’s head turned sharply.
Manager Jung Woo-hyuk, who had been crossing his arms and keeping quiet, also raised his eyebrows.
Inspector Ju Ik Hyun looked around with a stiff expression and nodded.
“Tell me.”
“Ha. Okay. Then I’ll show you instead of telling you.”
Yoo-hyun took out his phone from his pocket as if he had no choice.
Thud.
The moment he put his phone on the table.
“Hey. You don’t mean to.”
Jo Hee Deok seemed to have realized something and tried to stop him, but Yoo-hyun’s hand was faster.
A sound came out of the phone speaker.
It was the conversation between Jo Hee Deok and Yoo-hyun, right before the assault.
-I’m going to start a business, and I just need your name on it. It’s a simple way that I’ve been doing for years.
-You need the permission of a high-ranking official, right?
-Yeah. It’s a business that you can get for free if you just help me a little. Of course, I’ll give you half of the business profits as a reward.
-What if the police find out?
-That won’t happen. I’m good at cleaning up. If not, I’ll take responsibility. And the police are too naive to know anything.
-I’m sorry, but I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.
The short recording ended with Yoo-hyun’s refusal.
Of course, there was a part where he agreed nicely afterwards, but he obviously cut that out.
It was clear that Jo Hee Deok was wrong just by looking at this.
Yoo-hyun confirmed that part.
“I’m not a high-ranking official, and I couldn’t tolerate such illegal activities, so I refused. Then he suddenly attacked me.”
Jo Hee Deok got up angrily and spat out harsh words.
“When did I do that? Hey, you bastard. You made this up.”
“Are you going to use violence again with your gangsters? I will never back down from injustice.”
Yoo-hyun showed a serious expression, but his eyes sparkled.
The people who were watching empathized with his righteous act.
Jo Hee Deok, who was cornered, cursed with a fierce expression.
“Huh. You really are a wicked bastard. You said you’d see me, and then. I clearly told Jung Da…”
Just as he was about to mention Jeong Da-hye’s name, Yoo-hyun got up and gestured to the far side.
“Huh?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to where Yoo-hyun pointed.
At that moment, Yoo-hyun quickly reached for Jo Hee Deok’s chin and pulled his beard.
Squeak.
His beard came off and his stubbly chin was exposed.
“What?”
Inspector Ju Ik Hyun blinked his eyes with a dumbfounded expression.
Manager Shin Kwang Se, who had been careful to call him sir, got up and pushed his belly forward.
“Oh ho. He’s been ying tricks from the beginning. Isn’t he aplete scammer?”
“Yes. They areplete scammers. They must have other crimes too.”
Yoo-hyun agreed with Manager Shin Kwang Se for once.
“Huh. He’s really evil. I’ll check on that part.”
Inspector Ju Ik Hyun, who was furious, agreed with Yoo-hyun 100 percent.
