Lookism (Fan fic)

"Would you like to be my bodyguard? I am planning to replace one of them soon enough. You will do just fine." offered Choi.

Jichang glared at him quietly before immediately charging at him. Choi managed to dodge the first chop before immediately being hit by the second one. It was a very powerful attack. He definitely felt the brunt, even more so due to his old age. 

This could be dangerous. Maybe he should have sent Gun. 

He jumped away and coughed before straightening up. "You just missed your chance you fool." he said as the two charged at each other again, this time Choi was more prepared, he easily dodged the first strike before dodging the follow up attack and landed a jab of his own, the two were strategists after all, constantly trying to predict the other's move, trying to outsmart the other. 

Jichang's brain was working at 100% capacity, he couldn't afford to take Choi lightly at all. He was after all the second-in-command of the Fist Gang. A genius in his own right. 

Both exchanged attacks with brutal ferocity, no one gave the other even a moment to rest, the stakes were high. Losing here meant certain death, for either of them. 

Suddenly Choi slammed his fist on to Jichang's leg, "this drains all your strength" he said.

"Yea, no shit." said Jichang as he used his hand blade with all his power. There was a loud boom and Charles was slammed into the ground, a large crater under him. 

Jichang fell down. Holding his leg, his navicular bone was definitely broken. It was a pressure point. No wonder Elite was a genius after all. But Jichang had expected it. 

Choi got up with immense difficulty. Jichang staggered to his feet. Both men stared into each other's eyes. 

Now, it was Choi who dashed at Jichang. It was expected. Jichang couldn't walk anymore. He again readied his hand blade. This time the attack landed even more easily, leaving Jichang startled. 

'What is this old geezer thinking?' he thought confused, his chop had made a direct contact with Choi's head, it was bleeding profusely. Was he trying to do a tackle? 

"You you, yo- really coud ave een my odyguard." muttered Choi. His speech was extremely slurred. It was obvious, the attack had left him heavily concussed. 

Jichang looked down at his belt. Charles had got hold of his gun. Unholstered it, and put the muzzle on his liver. 

"Good ye" he muttered. He pulled the trigger and as expected, the first bullet was not a blank. Jichang had never even used his revolver. He never needed to. Never met anyone during his patrols who could overpower him. So he never really cared to check whether he had put the blanks in or not. The reason he even carried the revolver was due to government orders. Nothing more.

The bullet pierced his liver and then his lung, before coming out of the other side. Even with such critical injury Jichang readied his hand blade, preparing to land a final death blow with the remaining strength in his body. 

Charles pulled the trigger twice more. The bullets pierced his heart and lungs. Jichang's hand fell to his side. He fell on Choi. Choi shoved his body to the ground and staggered a little before getting up.

"JICHANG!" screamed Bakgu Noh as he appeared to check whether he was ok.

"erfect" muttered Charles with an evil smile as he shot Bakgu dead too. 

Erasing the evidence and framing Bakgu, he left the place staggering, before falling down in a field. His head was spinning. He took out his phone and sent an SOS message to Gun, before passing out. 

Charles woke up a few hours later. His head and back were bandaged. Gun was driving the car. 

"You are one stupid motherfucker." said Gun noticing that Charles had regained consciousness. 

"I am fine. Thank you for asking." groaned Choi as he sat up straight. 

"What were you doing?" asked Gun.

"Erasing incriminating evidence." he replied.

"I killed the white viper." he admitted.

"I see." replied Gun coolly.

"I thought you would have been more angry. Especially since you wanted to kill him personally." said Charles with a pained chuckle. 

"Not only me. There are many more. But you had the pleasure." said Gun.

"Gosh he was tough. My last tackle wasn't even planned. I wasn't thinking. His first chop on my spine sent shock waves through my body. I was lucky to have noticed his revolver. Otherwise-" said Charles.

"Otherwise you would have been dead. Typical. For an old man like you." interjected Gun calmly.

"I know, with you there, things could have gone very smoothly. But you aren't omnipotent. I am able to enough to clean up my own mess." said Charles.

"Did it include fainting in a field? It was a private one you know. What if someone had ran into you? Did you covered up the evidence?" asked Gun.

Charles nodded. "How did you patch me?" he asked.

"I didn't. I couldn't. You had open wounds, they needed to be stitched. Luckily, I saw a local dispensary and by coincidence, the clerk there was a medical student, daughter of the owner of the shop. Paid her a 100 million Won to keep things quiet and off the books. Here, take this. Painkillers." answered Gun handing Charles the medicine. 

Charles nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, things are covered up now. But he still needed an alibi. 

"How much do you like this car?" asked Gun suddenly.

"Its a Rolls Royce Ghost. Had to wait, 8 months to get it." replied Charles raising an eyebrow at the random question before suddenly realizing where he was getting at.

"Oh come on. Can't you use a different car?" said Charles tiredly.

Gun kept quiet. 

"What will be the story then?" asked Choi.

"You were being driven back to Seoul after a meeting in Incheon. To save an inattentive pedestrian, the driver swerved, the car crashed." replied Gun. 

"Good cover up." complimented Charles. Gun didn't reply.

The next day. 

Daniel Park woke up to see the news. 

"In a heartbreaking event, brave police officer Jichang Kwak got in an altercation with a man named Mr. Noh. The man tried taking his gun but the officer bravely fought him off. The two died on the spot. Many witnesses stated that the two were on friendly terms but must have got in an argument." said the reporter on the news.

"Another disturbing event from last night, Charles Choi, CEO of HNH Group had got in a car accident. He was coming back from Incheon after a meeting. His driver saw an inattentive pedestrian crossing the road carelessly, to save him, the driver swerved the car leading it to be crashed at a wall. Charles Choi was immediately rushed to a hospital where he received stitches on his head. He also had injuries on his back but nothing life threatening. The driver on the other hand is too injured but is alive. Charles Choi verbally praised the man for saving the life of the passerby even at the cost of his Rolls Royce Ghost being ruined and him getting injured in the process." finished the reporter. 

Daniel was shocked. It didn't take him long to realize that it was all Choi's doing. He needed to be punished for his sins. But for that he needed to get to Jinyoung Park.
