NOVEL NEXT Chapter 3-Cheonryu
Episode 3, Cheonryu
“It’s a big deal.”
I quickly pulled out the cockpod (the watch’s built-in Bluetooth earphone for calls) and put it in my ear.
“Yes, Father.” Are you at home? “yes.” What’s the schedule like?
“Today is the day to reissue your ID card, so go to the community center.”
Superintendents must reissue their resident registration cards.
He said that the background color was blue and there was a difference in the patterns.
Perhaps it is to facilitate identification at the level of judicial and administrative management.
-and. “I’ll have lunch at home, train, then meet in the evening.” You don’t have to go. Go out—go north!
As if he had been with his subordinates, he heard voices directed at others and distant salutes.
“What is the schedule?”
-ah. Let’s have lunch together.
“Lunch? In the troop?”
It’s increasingly surprising.
-In Gangnam. I have someone to introduce.
Please send me the location by message.
When you leave, take one document from my study and come out.
The first drawer of the desk, just bring the sealed one at the top.
“all right. But who… .”
“Be tidy and come out.”
─Tap. “<0x07> <0x07>.”
You might say it’s such a strange situation, but it was like that in this family.
Since Han Seong-joon’s first smartphone when he was 15 years old, his father had never made a phone call first.
In the meantime, even common homecoming checks and errands had been passed on through my mother.
No matter how much I thought about it, the background of my father’s change was only my awakening.
‘I don’t know if this is good or bad.
‘ I went to my father’s study and took out the papers first. Unsuitable for the times and culture, the envelope had a red sealing seal that read ‘Kawaryu’.
“Cheongryu… .”
It’s a very familiar letter.
Chunryuhoe.
A secret organization behind the scenes that made it possible for the father to establish a dictatorship in the main game.
At first glance, it reminds me of the private organization of the new military government decades ago in the world I lived in, but the scale is so ridiculous that I dare to compare it.
It was because the Chenryuhoe was a huge force that included not only the military and police but also high-ranking officials in the three powers (legislative, administrative, and judicial), as well as figures from the financial world. ‘a moment.
Is the person you are introducing me to a member of the Tenryuhoe?’
It was natural reasoning that the person to introduce would also be a member of the Chenryuhoe if it was a place to take the documents of the Chenryuhoe.
“no way.”
On the one hand, I also said something that didn’t make sense.
It seems to be an impromptu place under the circumstances, but it is a secret connection that the world does not even know exists yet.
The opponent must be a person who sits in one place.
My father wasn’t a light person enough to brag about his son at such a meeting.
Perhaps a natural picture, Wasn’t it the case that you requested, or did the other party also accompany the 2nd generation?
… …
It’s not like a confrontation, right?
“At least say a little bit. What are you wearing?”
“Only acts to deal with emergencies by superhumans and monsters are recognized as official duties, and all criminal acts are specially applied.You will be severely punished.”
“yes.”
“Please check the details written here and sign below. And this… .”
I thought of receiving a general reissue, but why are there so many people asking me to fill it out?
“Is the bachelor superhuman?”
“Yes.” In addition, the attention of the ladies who were waiting there was unexpected.
“Then you shoot fire and run around like Superman?”
“There are people like that, but not me.”
I, a magical talent, could be said to be that side, but I blocked things that would be annoying in advance.
“In case you don’t know it, I’ll have to get your phone number.”
“Yes, yes. If that strange thing appears in my neighborhood, I can contact this bachelor.”
“uh… Even if you don’t call separately, a disaster text message will come first.” After that, I managed to get out after removing the ladies who kept taking pictures.
“after… .”
「Am 10:56」 Appointment time is 12:30.
My house is in Yongin, so I came out with plenty of time, but it took up all the time I had left.
It was when I arrived at the place where I had parked in a hurry.
I noticed a man walking from the opposite side with my car in between.
A bright, time-flowing parking lot.
How can a man wearing a hat be so suspicious? I felt cheap for some reason.
There are many empty seats, so there is no reason to pass by my car.
But even so, it was not a situation that a grown man would be wary of.
I casually opened the driver’s door. Parbat! Tak-tak-tak! Quick signs were heard at the same time.
“<0x0F> <0x07>.”
I wasn’t surprised because I was conscious.
The man who seemed to pass by quickly attached himself behind my back and wrapped around my neck.
Another ran towards the passenger seat. “100 million.”
The man who grabbed me covered my mouth and pushed me into the driver’s seat.
The man who climbed into the passenger seat first drew a knife while covering his mouth with his index finger.
In the meantime, the man who let me go gets in the back seat and puts the tip of a knife to the back of my neck.
I feel like I’ve done it many times.
A series of movements were as natural as flowing water.
“I have no money, ah!” I felt a sharp pain in the back of my neck.
“You want to die?!”
The man in the back seat sighed angrily at the lack of tension. The man in the passenger seat entered the address of a town in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, into the navigation system and said, “Go to the address you took. As long as you cooperate well, I will not kill you.”
Then he picked up the paper bag he had been sitting on while hurriedly getting on board and handed it to his colleague in the back seat.
‘Was that what you were aiming for?’
A document requested by the father.
I was able to roughly guess their identity.
‘It must be the opposing forces of the Celestial Council.’ However, it is a force that does not appear at all in the main game.
That means, in the end, I couldn’t stop the Tenryuhoe.
If this hadn’t happened, I’d say they’d be unknown to me until the end.
“What are you doing without leaving?” “I thought this bastard was frozen.”
… …
The reason for not being sure is laxity.
“I will ask you one thing.”
“Ha, is this bastard a bit lacking? He doesn’t understand the situation and speaks squeaks.”
“Ugh… If you listen carefully, can you return the papers? It’s Dad’s errand.”
The passenger seat man shook his head.
“This seems like a bad kid.” The guy behind me answered my question instead. “You are going through this now because of that father. child.”
Oh, check. They just didn’t have any information.
There was no way they were going to send ordinary people away while aiming for superhumans.
Maybe it was a plan made by those who were only watching after seeing the documents with the seal of the Chenryuhoe.
By the way. I have been training consistently for a long time.
I have no experience using magic against people.
‘I hope he won’t die.’
Just because it’s magic doesn’t mean you need to do some math in your head. Is the talent itself a user manual? Of course, when learning each magic for the first time, an important condition called ‘imaging’ is preceded.
However, I had already encountered all kinds of magic that existed in this world through games.
Pak!
“Ah!”
“Start! It’s a baby!” Whoa. anyway…
Despite the irritability that gradually boiled over, I carefully adjusted the amount of magic used.
‘shield.’ and at the same time threw a magic ball at the man in the passenger seat.
The condensed blue energy flew less than half a meter away and lodged itself in the man’s chest.
Quick! “Ouch!” “Eh, magic?!”
“Ding dong deng.” “Bounce!” He was no ordinary guy.
It was clear that the ribs were out, but the action of opening and bouncing the door was very agile.
Kang! Kang! Kang! In the meantime, the guy behind me stabbed a knife into my shoulder blade.
“X feet.” When all of them were blocked by the shield, the latter also ran out without hesitation.
I’m going to catch the one who ran away first with the operation of the subversive…
Quadduk! “Quaaaaagh!”
The man’s shoulder twisted at an odd angle as he ran away with the papers.
still too much, because it’s the first time for the guy running the other way, only a light restraint magic… . fast!
“ぅ!” Why is my ankle broken?
“Uuuuuuuuu!”
“It wasn’t intentional.”
“Dog-Chi-Chi”
But is this really what happened?
If it was Han Seong-jun, not me, I would have been 100% victimized.
If they had come out with an anti-superman operation without even knowing their existence, the country would have been stuck.
Thinking that I should be careful, I drag the two guys together.
Flashing lights, two police cars drove quickly into the parking lot.
It was only then that I looked around and saw a few onlookers with their mouths covered from a distance. Among them, there was an ajumma who wanted to take a picture earlier.
‘ha The dog is twisted.’ It was only 10 minutes ago that I heard that superhumans are unconditionally subject to special assault.
I called my father, Are you on your way? “I don’t think I can go.”
Unsurprisingly, the police officers who came down in an orderly manner pointed their guns at me. “Hands up! If it moves, I shoot!” It’s because of the situation.
“This is District Captain Kang Jung-bae. It seems there was some misunderstanding. Kyungsa Kim, what are you doing? Release the handcuffs immediately.”
It must have been about 15 minutes since he was arrested by the police and arrived at the police station.
The district captain came out and sorted out the entire situation as a’misunderstanding’. As time passed again, a group of soldiers entered the district.
Two of them were familiar figures. Major Gong Ha-kyun and Sergeant Lim Tae-seong.
They are father’s henchmen, and they are names that even had a separate elimination mission in the game. “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“yes. no.” Gong Ha-kyun looked at me for a moment and then nodded as if he understood. Then I went to the district captain and had a conversation.
Legally, it was clear that I was fucked, but… It seemed like it was done very easily.
‘It’s good to have a good back.’ While I was thinking, another group of people entered the complex, and I let out pure admiration. “Crazy… .”
I wonder if he realized the power of the extra-legal organization called Chenryuhoe.
The two victims (from the point of view of the police) who had been immediately taken to the hospital were brought back to the district unit after receiving only first aid.
“<0x07> <0xCD>!” “<0x07> <0xCD>!”
Supported by the police, they began to turn white as soon as they saw the soldiers.
At the gesture of Lim Tae-seong, the waiting troops took over the two and dragged them out of the police station.
“What about the soldiers? Ooh, where are you taking us when we’re avoiding it? Hey, can the cops do this?
Let go! Let go, bastards!” “Please let me investigate here. Help me! If you get dragged, you die! Hey, you bastards!”
The riot receded and soon ceased to be heard.
There was an awkward silence in the earth belt.
Jing. Jiying. How perfect was the timing? All eyes were focused on one vibrating sound.
At this point, the people in the district may have guessed that the caller of this call was behind all of this. I put on the cockpit and pressed the call.
“Yes, Father.”
-Documents. “I’m fine.” Are you hurt? “yes. Rather than that, is the lunch appointment okay? Wasn’t that an important position?”
– I called earlier and told you in advance, so there’s nothing to worry about. After all, when you enter the school, you will naturally see each other.
It’s fine if you’re not injured.
It seems my guess was correct.
It seems that the children of that family are also students at Cheongsong Academy.
“ah! father.”
I called in a hurry because it was time to stop breathing again.
– Tell me. “That, what would you do…?” That’s none of your business.
Even though it was a cut word, my father nailed it like that.
“<0xEE> <0x9B> yes.”
-and. When talking on the phone with me in the presence of other people. Be careful not to reveal anything in what you say, your voice, or your expression. Suddenly, I looked around.
Everyone in the Earth Belt was still watching me.
“yes. See you at home.”
I answered calmly, but the last cries of those who had been dragged out a moment ago kept ringing in my ears.
