Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary

Episode 195. First Solo (2)

Headquarters of the National Intelligence Service of the Republic of Korea.

Oh Jeong-jin, head of the Crisis Management Office, came to the office of Kim Woo-hyun, the head of the domestic part.

Kim Woo-hyun’s expression was full of worries.

“Did Cheon Ju-hee really have nothing left?”

This is because Chun Joo-hee, a presidential candidate, was arrested while being exposed for corruption.

As a result, those who were in contact with Cheon Ju-hee could not help but be nervous. Of course, I thoroughly checked myself to see if there were any traces left so that the tail would not be caught.

“Once I checked, there was nothing left.”

“Hmm—”

Information was also planted in the prosecutor’s office. If evidence related to the NIS comes out, it should be notified immediately or, if concealment is possible, executed.

“Don’t worry too much.”

“How could it not be?”

“Did you notice anything else from above?”

“Once there wasn’t. You don’t seem to know yet.”

Kim Woo-hyun also kept checking because of fear. I thought about going abroad, but if I ran away unprepared in an uncertain situation, I would be caught quickly.

Besides, it could be a way to make an ambiguous situation clear.

Knock Tok—

The sudden knocking startled the two of them.

“listen-“

The door opened before Woohyun Kim could even speak.

The people who entered were NIS inspector general Nam Kyung-hwan and his subordinates.

“Excuse me.”

Seeing that, Kim Woo-hyun looked at him in surprise.

“What’s wrong with this?”

“I visited for inspection office work.”

“Inspection?”

In response to his question, Nam Kyung-hwan said with a calm expression.

“Woo-Hyeon Kim, Head of Department, and Jeong-Jin Oh, Head of Crisis Management Office. And 14 people, including team leader Eun Se-hyun, will be inspected after the circumstances surrounding their collusion and dealings with the imprisoned presidential candidate Cheon Joo-hee are revealed.”

“Big—!”

I couldn’t help but be more surprised.

Soon, Kim Woo-hyun and Oh Jung-jin crumpled their foreheads.

“Wouldn’t it be better not to do anything you’ll regret?”

“I’m just saying this just in case, but don’t think that there is nothing between candidate Chun Ju-hee.”

“… Do you have any proof?”

“You really think we came without proof?”

“What evidence?”

Nam Kyung-hwan let out a shallow sigh at Kim Woo-hyun’s confident attitude.

“Do you think Candidate Joo-Hee Cheon left nothing behind when he met you?”

“no way… … .”

“I heard that you had a lot of fun sharing the story of manipulating public opinion through comments. Didn’t you laugh while comparing the people to the alcohol in the glass that you turn with your hands?”

Kim Woo-hyun had no choice but to harden his expression.

At this, Nam Kyung-hwan moved slightly to the side. The inspectorate staff behind them stood on either side of Kim Woo-hyeon and Oh Jeong-jin.

“Let’s go.”

“… … .”

Eventually, the two of them left the office surrounded by them.

The uproar was great. There were also a lot of staff who came out to see the situation in the hallway.

“Did everyone see it!”

At Nam Kyung-hwan’s cry, all the employees who had stuck their heads out the door went inside.

After that, Nam Kyung-hwan went straight to the NIS director’s office. I knocked on the door and was greeted by Bang Myeong-jun, the director of the National Intelligence Service.

“There was no escape?”

“Looks like you were distracted. First of all, ten people, including Kim Woo-hyun, Oh Jeong-jin, and Eun Se-hyeon, were immediately led to the inspection room, and the other four will come in within an hour.”

“hmm… okay.”

Bang Myeong-jun sighed in embarrassment.

In addition, since collusion with a presidential candidate within the NIS was revealed, he did not know that it would be difficult for him to be safe.

After thinking for a while, Bang Myeong-jun resumed his work.

“Let’s investigate thoroughly so as not to be lax.”

“… All right.”

Nam Kyung-hwan left the office with the answer.

A few days later.

Kamikura Horyuji arrived in Japan with Shane.

After moving through Izumo Airport in the west of Japan, I drove on the road for about 2 hours by car and entered the road surrounded by forest.

The place where the car arrived was a huge mansion built in the middle of the mountain. Foreigners in black suits surrounded the mansion.

Kamikura Horyuji got out of the car and was guided into the mansion by a man.

Sitting in the living room was Lester Ramos, the three elders, over six feet tall and bulky.

“He asked me to see you first, but like this— Huh?”

Lester Ramos said something in German before his gaze stopped at the gray-haired man who had followed Kamikura Horyuji.

“… Shane from Cerberus?”

“long time no see. Three elders.”

When Shane said hello first, Lester Ramos’ brow dug deep.

“Why is Shane with you and not Elder O?”

“How can I see that? Since the situation is important, let’s talk about that first.”

The two sat across from each other on the sofa.

Kamikura Horyuji let out a shallow sigh before speaking.

“Are you aware of the current situation?”

“This is the first emergency order issued since the discontinuation of the DGI Project, so how can you not understand it? However, he must be busy taking measures for an emergency… How did you ask to see me?”

The emergency decree is an emergency measure within their organization, and it was an order to erase all recent traces, move important hideouts, and wait.

Lester Ramos also came to Japan after completing measures in Southeast Asia, where he was active under the emergency decree.

“That’s why I asked to see you.”

“Are there any problems?”

“The situation is nonsensical.”

“Is it because the project you were working on failed?”

Horyuji Kamikura swallowed his silence at Lester Ramos’s point-blank strike.

“I would turn away for that. Moreover, it is said that each intelligence organization has started following our tracks… … .”

That was the reason why the emergency order fell from the top of the organization.

British SIS, American CIA, French DSGE, German BND, Korean NIS. In addition, it is because information organizations in each country, such as China and Japan, began to search for the Bluton Reform.

It wasn’t until all intelligence organizations in each country figured out the name of Bluton Reform.

However, how did he notice the existence of the organization, he began to find traces of Bluton Reform, which had been buried.

“Haa—things are all twisted and crazy… , I could have eaten the whole country this time.”

“Where is that easy? Even if we force them to sit down, that kind of seat is out of our hands… . You and I know better than anyone.”

Previously, a person had been appointed as the president as an organization’s protection.

As a result, the profits the organization earned outside various legal nets were bound to be astronomical. The country itself has become part of the organization.

“Yes, humans themselves become greedy. It’s not a normal position, it’s a position that can control the country, so it’s natural. One—our interests cannot be abandoned.”

“Isn’t that greed the reason why you’re like that now?”

“Big—”

Lester Ramos stared at the quiet Kamikura Horyuji.

“So, let’s see what we are going to do. You didn’t ask to see me just to grumble, did you?”

“Huh— can that be? nothing else… … .”

As the atmosphere became heavy, it became serious.

Horyuji Kamikura paused for a moment before continuing.

“That’s the staff support I was talking about last time.”

“Oh, didn’t I say no to that? And the work is almost finished, what kind of support do you need?”

Kamikura Horyuji stared at him.

“In addition to the problems that need to be solved separately, it is about catching the guy who wiped out the Cerberus team excluding Shane.”

“… bloke?”

“For now, it’s just him. I heard this Shane was beaten by a guy.”

His gaze shifted to Shane, who was standing behind him.

Hearing that, Lester Ramos couldn’t believe it.

“Is it really?”

“It’s true. Otherwise, there is no reason for Shane to be with me.”

Lester Ramos stared at Shane, pondering. It was because he was curious about the being that killed most of the Cerberus personnel.

“hmm… … .”

“I’d like at least five AA-level ones, please.”

At that moment, Lester Ramos’ expression hardened.

“Class AA?”

What Kamikura Horyuji said was not simply about grades.

It was about the main specialty of each field within Savnak, which Lester Ramos was in charge of. And the AA rank meant the best in Savnak who specialized in ‘Assassination’ of assassination.

“Is that possible?”

“Are you going to kill even the current president just because you couldn’t elect the president? Or even a candidate?”

“It’s not like that, it’s because I have urgent business to take care of.”

“Wouldn’t it be normal if you needed an AA rank? Besides, if that’s the case… Isn’t there Shane behind him?”

Cerberus’ Shane excelled not only as a mercenary but also in assassination.

It was famous even among the elders, so Kamikura Horyuji’s actions to save others couldn’t help but feel strange.

“Recently, the Cerberus team was wiped out except for Shane. Also in Korea… … .”

Cerberus was a separate team, unrelated to Savnak and the Scarlet Knights. Each of them was armed with experience points and skills forged in battles where lives came and went over trivial matters.

Even if they fought with the best power of Savnak or Scarlet Knight, it was not far behind.

“… what? Are they?”

“It is true. The National Intelligence Service of the Republic of Korea took notice of that. That’s why it’s hard to move Shane.”

“Huh—a situation where you can’t even use the best hand. Aren’t you going to tell me what else you’re going to do?”

It was because the conversation had been going round and round.

“Can I borrow it without asking?”

“It’s five. Besides, in a situation where an emergency has been issued, if my children move and get caught, who will use that poison?”

I didn’t think that Kamikura Horyuji would lend it so easily.

But I didn’t expect to be this strict.

“Big—”

“Instead, I wonder if you give me 20% of the kaulquape that Ten Tsubasa regularly pulls in.”

At that request, Horyuji Kamikura’s expression hardened even more.

Kaulquappe. The word tadpole means an orphan, a material for human weapons raised by Savnak and the Scarlet Knights.

On a regular basis, Kaulkuape is taken out of an orphanage that Elder Lee sponsored using the company Ten Tsubara. Of course, the process is treated as disappearance or adoption, and the traces are erased.

However, the personnel recruited in this way are equally distributed to both the Savnak and Scallen Knights.

Lester Ramos made a condition for the number of such orphans to be given to Savnak.

“What can I do?”

Kamikura Horyuji bit his parched lips at the urging tone.

“The number drawn this time… Fourty. You want eight more of them.”

“Are there fewer numbers than before?”

“Isn’t the situation a situation? That’s because it was narrowly omitted. It will be difficult for a while in a situation where even an emergency order has been issued.”

“So you’re going to do it?”

It was difficult to worry for a long time.

Horyuji Kamikura spoke calmly.

“Okay. Don’t do that. Instead—five in AA rank. You have to give it up for sure.”

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll give it to the right guys. Of course, it’s not the number that matters. Because they have never been exposed.”

“Don’t worry about it. Within three days, please.”

“I will send it as soon as possible.”

After finishing the deal, we all went out together.

Those who were on guard outside gathered around the vehicle. And they got into their vehicles.

.

.

.

It was a location in which a huge mansion in the forest could be seen in a breathtaking view.

There, two men watched through the branches with telescopes.

“Soo. Do you think you caught it?”

“It seems so.”

It was Theresa and Kangsu.

In the meantime, Gong Chi-young’s voice came through the earphones in their ears.

[I’m glad the information was clear.]

It came after tracking Kamikura Horyuji. Of course, the process was not easy.

First of all, Gong Chi-young took advantage of the confusion of the NIS and hacked it, and found the data recorded by the Crisis Management Office tracking Jennifer Han. From there, they searched the hotel and CCTV cameras Jennifer Han visited to find out the location of Horyuji Kamikura.

After that, it was not difficult to figure out the route to Japan.

“Good job. The hacking code from the NIS hasn’t been discovered yet, has it?”

One of the reasons Kangsu was able to track Kamikura Horyuji was that he blocked the stowaway side.

Thanks to that, Kamikura Horyuji and Shane had no choice but to use a plane to go out. Of course, it was also thanks to their carelessness that their identity was not revealed.

[There’s still no news about it. Ah, all those who worked hand in hand with Cheon Joo-hee went over to the inspection.]

“I’m glad. If you feel any traces appearing, hang up immediately. Have no regrets.”

[Ok.]

After hearing Gong Chi-yeong’s answer, Kang-soo ran with Teresa.
