Episode 80 [Seoul Night (3)]
E-e-e-e-in-e-e-e-e-in.
Several police cars were parked in front of the building.
The injured gangsters were loaded into police cars and people watched from afar.
There were also police officers and plainclothes detectives inside the bar.
“Wow, this is no joke.”
The young detective clicked his tongue when he saw the messed up bar.
The inside of the bar was completely ruined. There was no intact furniture to be seen and blood was stained everywhere.
“Business is done.”
The young detective clicked his tongue as he looked at the woman sitting on one side of the bar, putting a wet towel on her head.
“Noisy. “Do some research.”
A middle-aged detective next to him warned him.
“Do you need to investigate something? “No one died, and all those responsible were caught.”
“Everything that was caught was caught. “Only the small bastards in handcuffs were caught on their own.”
The young detective’s eyes sparkled.
“Oh, is that really the case? “Then I guess I’ll have to dig it up.”
The middle-aged detective shook his head.
“Just do it as usual. “What are you going to dig up again?”
“No, what should I do?”
The middle-aged detective scratched his head at his junior’s words. He sighed and opened his mouth.
“It seems like the higher-ups are having a hard time because a request to bury it roughly and a request to handle it properly come in at the same time.”
“I have a vague feeling that you are asking, but I guess this place is quite famous? “Such requests also come.”
“So just handle it as expected. “If we investigate and raise it, they will take care of it.”
“Yes, yes, I know what you’re talking about.”
The junior ate his appetite and began to look at the smashed bar.
The middle-aged detective shook his head and walked towards the woman.
“Are your wounds okay?”
“It’s better than the store.”
Jin Xiawei looked at the bar and sighed. The detective felt sorry for her expression.
Since I was caught up in a gang fight, it was difficult to receive compensation. As my junior said, it was like being struck by lightning out of nowhere.
“It may be difficult, but can you explain the circumstances of the incident?”
At the detective’s words, Jin Xiawei began to explain to the detective what happened today.
It was a story about kissing the captured gangsters, which was completely different from what was explained to Kyung-hoon.

Same time. The top floor of the building where the bar is located.
Kyung-hoon and Kang-deok were sitting on plastic chairs in an empty office.
An empty glass bottle was rolling around next to Kang Deok, and although he was seriously injured, he seemed to be in pretty good shape now.
Kang Deok was talking on his cell phone and Kyung Hoon was watching him.
“Okay, tell the kids to struggle a little bit. Good work.”
After finishing the call, Kang Deok put the phone away.
“Did it end well?”
Unlike a while ago, Kyung-hoon treated me with respect in a gentle voice.
But Kang Deok did not relax his nerves.
“I also spoke with the organization over there. “It will end up being a simple fist fight between the arrested gang members.”
“How amazing. Over there, the boss and two awakened people from China are missing, so you can guess them so easily.”
Cold sweat flowed from the back of Kang Deok’s neck.
After he was moved here, all the corpses in the bar disappeared in a short while. .
There were subordinates guarding the place outside, but no one saw anything resembling a corpse coming out of the inside.
“Anyway, if the police get involved, things get messy. The rule is that internal matters are handled internally.”
Kyung-hoon decided to make a decision again if he didn’t like it.
– I understand. Based on my master’s ethics, I will report it immediately if the limit is exceeded.
Eve’s abilities have also been greatly strengthened. Now, she can look into the police agency network, which has poor security. .
As time passed, the police returned and the people left.
Jin Xiawei came up to the empty office.
Entering the office, she spread her empty hands.
“The detectives also left. What do we do now?”
“You worked hard. I’m taking a break from working at the bar.”
“vacation?”
“I have one more thing to do.”
“That’s not fun...”
Jin Xiawei’s expression turned sour as she remembered the explosive material.
“I was planning to expand the jewelry bar anyway. I’d rather open a proper store again.”
“No, how long has it been since you opened the store?”
“It looks like we will be signing a contract with a gold mine. A fairly large amount will be coming in. Anyway, we can’t handle it with the jewelry right now.”
The price of gold continued to rise. At times like this, it might be better to hold on to gold, but Kyung-hoon had no reason to hold on to gold. He
had a ton of gold bars, a gold mine, and an unknown amount of the world’s gold to himself.
‘And then . I heard that the central banks of each country hold gold... Which bank in the other world will the Bank of Korea’s gold remain in?’
His thoughts wandered for a moment.
Gyeong-hoon came to his senses and continued speaking again.
“In the meantime, you can take a break from your work as an alchemist. I think the reorganization in Korea will be completed in about a week... I wonder if you have something to do with Mr. Yang Kang-deok. Do you have any?”
In response to Kyung-Hoon’s question, Jin Xia-Wei looked at Kyung-Hoon.
Kyung-Hoon looked at her and Jin Xia-Wei pouted.
“Ah, that’s not funny. If you go back to the original version, you’ll have a very attractive face. Is it actually not that good?”
She grumbled to herself and answered Kyung-hoon’s question,
“I’m just one of those customers who flirts. When the excitement subsides, her face changes as if it’s never happened before.”
Sigh. A laugh that wasn’t appropriate for her age flowed from her mouth.
“Besides, what should we do with this building? It’s all bought.”
“You can either rent it out or leave it empty.”
“Wow, you must be really rich.”
-He’s really, really rich.
Thanks to this wave incident, not only the owner of the EV but also Kyung-hoon has become quite wealthy.
“Don’t go out and wander around for a while until the work is finished. It won’t take long.”
At Gyeonghun’s words, Jin Xiawei’s face turned serious.
“You certainly don’t plan on fighting with labor, management, or the triads, do you? It’s not a place for individuals to deal with each other.”
Thanks to the Communist Party, it was greatly reduced, but it was still one of the world’s largest criminal organizations with a huge number of members. Although they were called awakened, they were an opponent that no individual could handle. Kyung-hoon grinned at her concern. “Who said you would fight
alone
? “I am not alone.”
“Ah...”
Jin Xia-wei let out an exclamation at Kyung-hoon’s words. Kyunghoon was certainly not alone.

The scuffle that took place in Seoul was covered briefly in newspapers and broadcasts.
Gangsters and security issues continued to be discussed in various media outlets, but the reason for this was not the brawl but the week-long uprising that followed.
However, this uproar only happened in Korea.
China was taken aback by the attack that came from a completely different place.
Shortly after the scuffle broke out, EV posted a notice on its website.
[I heard that a huge number of awakened people are participating in Chinese criminal organizations and causing chaos in society. EV decided to stop selling and leasing equipment to China out of concern that the equipment being shipped there would end up in criminal networks. We ask the Chinese government and awakened people to respond appropriately.]
It was a long story, but the conclusion was simple.
EV said it would not sell equipment to China.
