The Reincarnated Cop Who Strikes With Wealth

The Taste of Strategy (3)

Mong-Doo and Black urged me to start explaining.

From my pocket, I took out the card that Chang-I had given me.

“The moment I received this, I understood everything.”

The name was inscribed in gold leaf against a black background.

Although I couldn’t recall the name or the information, I was certain about the design.

It was the same as the card that had been pinned on Ma Eun-Tae’s bag of money.

“Ma Eun-Tae? What has he got to do with this? Do you think that guy called Chang-something is his spy?

“No. After thinking it through, I believe it’s Madam Shim. Because she’s the only one who has a direct connection to Song Dae-Ak.”

“So Chang-I is one of Madam Shim’s?”

“Yes. He’s probably just someone who helps her with her work. That’s my prediction anyway.”

“How did Madam Shim end up working with the Guma Gang?”

Hm. There could be a few explanations.

“She could have made some sort of deal with him while they were passing the drugs, or she could even have a personal connection to Ma Eun-Tae.”

“So first of all, we need to keep our eyes on Madam Shim.”

Acting like he had gotten the point, Black nodded his head.

“It would be for the best if they do have a personal connection.”

“Why so?”

“Since we can use that to spur Song Dae-Ak.”

“Ah!”

Grasping the idea, Mong-Doo exclaimed in surprise.

Then he started slapping on the back in unbridled excitement.

“Hey, really! Newbie! You really are one heck of a guy, aren’t you?”

“Ow-ow-ow, hold- hold on!”

Black was left scratching his head, the only one who had yet to understand.

So Mong-Doo explained the plan to him with a flushed face.

“What he’s saying is this, let’s inform Song Dae-Ak that Ma Eun-Tae and Madam Shim have something going on, that will drag Song Dae-Ak and his guys out of hiding and into a fight with the Guma Gang.”

“It would be best to plan for it to happen on the day of the drug party. Since we can arrest all of them on the spot. We can even get a triple crown of charges. Violence, drugs, and prostitution.”

“On top of that, the guests at the party won’t be your average nobodies. If we pull this off, doesn’t it look like we’ll all receive special promotions?”

“Pr-promotions?”

Black wiped away his drool.

All of the people attending the party were likely to be children of famous and politically powerful families.

What if they could also get rid of two famous groups of violent troublemakers at the same time?

That might just flip the whole of Korea onto its head. 

“Even if there isn’t a personal connection, we just need to spread a small rumor instead. What if the Guma Gang has swallowed the slush fund managed by Madam Shim?”

“Br-brilliant!”

Mong-Doo took a few deep breaths to regain his composure.

“How can you be sure that Song Dae-Ak will make a move? After all, he’s still wanted. And right on the day of the party at that.”

“We can just make him move. It won’t be all that difficult.”

In the middle of a crisis where the foundations of their organization are being shaken, they will have to make a move once they’re given the opportunity.

Because it was only by letting people know that the Fork Gang was willing to fight back, even under these circumstances, that they could give their organization the confidence to continue running smoothly despite the risk of jail time. In order to ensure the future of their gang, they would do whatever it took.

Besides, neither Song Dae-Ak nor his gang were the type to endure a traitor.

Ah. So that was why the Guma Gang was searching so eagerly for Song Dae-Ak.

They needed to find him and kill him before he figured out what was going on, or they could just throw him to the police to finish him off.

It all boils down to greed.

“Let’s plan this all out properly. So that our older brothers can get promoted.”

Even as Black was holding on to the wheel tightly, his whole body was trembled.

With his eyes fixed on the vision of a rosy future that was unfolding in front of him, he couldn’t hide his excitement any longer.

Beep-beep!

He slammed on the accelerator while beeping the horn.

“For my promotion!”

Vroom-

The van charged back towards the police station.
