#144. Chaos. 4
Lee Si-young, looking at the mirror at home, had a very satisfied face.
They had spent more money to buy GH shares, and although the stock price was fluctuating, it was trending upward.
Lee Si-young smiled brightly as she thought of Woo-jin for a moment.
It's not that Woojin is wrong, but isn't the performance of pushing forward as he wants surpassing Woojin's?
Soon, Lee Si-young called Woo-jin.
Even the sound of the harp in her ears sounded like singing.
“Yeah, it’s me. Did you see the GH Construction stock price?”
– I was checking. It went up too much. Did you sell it?
“No? I’m still holding it. I think it’ll go up a little more.”
– When you get money, you should keep it in your pocket and protect it. You shouldn't bet with that money again.
Lee Si-young let Woo-jin's words slip away.
“What are you doing later? Let’s go eat something delicious.”
– Let's eat it next time. Sell that.
“You said that the choice of investment is yours, right? Look. It’ll go up even more.”
– okay.
Lee Si-young seemed to have a strange competitive spirit.
At that moment, Woojin's words were heard again.
– I'm working on something important right now, so I'll call you later.
When Woojin hung up the phone, Lee Siyoung snickered.
“Just wait and see.”
Even if they were super ants, they would not be able to compare to the experts who had advanced information about flying and long distances.
Lee Si-young smiled faintly again.
“I wonder what kind of expression you’ll make later.”
Woojin, who was in Lee Si-young's head, was in the kitchen.
Bomi next to me blinked and asked.
“Is this the cooking you learned in the military?”
“Yeah, it’s a great dish.”
“Do you need anything else?”
The ingredients were simple.
Rice, tuna, seaweed, and the food that Woojin brought back from the military.
“Stir-fry?”
“No. Like this.”
Woojin poured rice into a plastic bag and added tuna and crushed seaweed.
And then they faced each other and started to fumble.
The sight was vivid in Bomi's eyes, and her face frowned slightly without her knowing it.
It was because the color was strange.
“It tastes better when you put it in a plastic bag and knead it like this.”
The colors got weirder and weirder.
It's almost like an overbite…
"completion."
Woojin put on vinyl gloves and shaped the finished product into bite-sized round shapes.
And he handed it to Bomi.
“Okay. Ah.”
Bomi hesitated for a moment about whether or not to eat it, but it only lasted for a moment.
Because it was food my brother made.
But he couldn't hide his slightly frowning expression.
"ah……"
As Bomi opened her mouth, Woojin also opened his mouth slightly and put it in his younger sister's mouth.
Bomi, who was munching on something she couldn't eat, tilted her head.
Then, unlike before, his expression became smooth as if it had been ironed.
“What is this? Why is this so delicious?”
"admit?"
“Why is it so delicious… … ”
Woojin said this while taking a bite himself.
“I think it was a good thing that I went to the military. I learned a lot of things. Digging, and this too… …”
There is also a technique to avoid the guard and run away precariously, as if playing hide-and-seek.
Woojin even climbed up a tree and took a nap.
I learned a ton of crazy curse words that I had never seen before on the internet.
“Would you like one more bite?”
Bomi opened her mouth and smiled.
"ah……"
Woojin made it into an appropriate size again and put it in Bomi's mouth.
While Woojin was enjoying his peaceful time like this, other people were moving around nervously.
The representative of GH Construction was one of them, and his expression never seemed to soften.
The manager who usually assists him spoke again.
“I asked again anyway.”
The representative rubbed his forehead as if he had a headache.
“Who witnessed this?”
“There’s only one laborer and a forklift operator.”
“Did you do a good job of keeping your mouth shut?”
“Yes. I gave him a decent amount of money. Judging from the fact that he buried it right after it was found, he seems to know how to tell right from wrong.”
“The construction must not be stopped.”
The money invested is in the hundreds of billions and trillions.
If construction was halted, GH Construction would be shaken.
They received more bidding sites than other companies and invested more money.
“Keep going. Especially the area where the relics were found, grind them down even faster.”
"All right."
As the director left, the GH Construction representative looked at the receiver.
I don't know how much money they put in the mouths of their superiors to get the land bid.
But it's a relic.
The representative, who was thinking about giving them a brief notice, soon took his eyes off the receiver.
It would have been fine if it had proceeded without anyone knowing.
If discovered, it would be buried and destroyed, and that would be the end of it.
How amazing is that old, worn-out relic.
—————————————————-
In the office of Deputy Chief Prosecutor Kim Cheol-woong, two people were sitting side by side facing each other.
Prosecutor Kim Cheol-woong spoke to the man who was sent to the prosecution while holding a knife in his hand.
“You have three previous convictions, and you’re also under civil charges for fraud? This time, you’re being arrested for aggravated assault.”
"sorry."
“Hey, you. You shouldn’t be sorry to me. You should be sorry to the people you hurt.
“I heard there’s no money to settle. It seems like the victim doesn’t want it either.”
"that is……"
“People like you are proud of being able to hang out in the dark every now and then, right?
“I’ll give you a big star for 10 years this time.”
His eyes widened.
“Yes, inspector.”
"why?"
“I’m sorry, I… … ”
Kim Cheol-woong got up from his seat and walked next to him.
And then he poked his shoulder with his finger.
“Hey, you shouldn’t apologize to me, you should apologize to those people.”
He couldn't say anything.
“The incident at the Yeongsam-dong Million Room Salon, was that also ordered by your superiors?”
There was a fight between gangsters, and it ended with one person being arrested in a tail-cutting manner.
Of course, the prosecutor in charge of that case was not Kim Cheol-woong.
“No. I don’t know.”
“Or did you give the order?”
He glared and waved his hands vigorously.
“No! Absolutely not!”
“Hey… … Judging by the way you’re reacting like this, it seems like you gave the order?”
“Inspector! What nonsense are you talking about… …”
“That’s ridiculous… … .”
Kim Cheol-woot sat down at the PC table, smiling.
At that moment, Kim Cheol-woong’s expression completely disappeared.
“If I say it, it’s true, you thug.”
He fell to his knees.
Things were going wrong for a long time.
If that incident gets covered up, I don't know how long I'll have to live.
It could be that the inspector was just trying to improve his performance, or it could be that the organization he was working for had done something wrong.
“Inspector, please save me! I absolutely will not! I will tell you everything. Everything!”
“I have a lot to do, so I don’t have time to listen to you. My performance has been bad lately, but it’s gotten much better.”
He came towards Kim Cheol-woong, dragging both knees, and grabbed his pants.
When Kim Cheol-woong frowned and looked down at his hands, he quickly took his hands out of his pants.
“Prosecutor, it is true that the case was ordered by my eldest brother, Baek-Chul Choi! It has nothing to do with me. That is true!”
“Hey… … Are you selling your boss’s name to save yourself? Right now? If Choi Baek-chul hears about this, will you be okay?
“How many of the kids that Choi Baek-chul follows are in the bakery right now? If you go in there, they’ll be very happy.”
His eyes trembled like aspen trees.
I felt like I was blocked on all sides with nowhere to run.
At that moment, Kim Cheol-woong put his hand on his shoulder.
“Okay, choose.”
"yes?"
“I can reach an agreement with the victim and reduce the sentence.
No, I'll let you out after you receive the amount of punishment you've committed. Live for three years and I'll give you 1 billion won."
His eyes widened at the word one billion.
“What is that… … ”
Kim Cheol-woong crouched down and met his gaze.
“If you just listen to what I say, you can have money to start a business when you come out.
“Should I wash my hands and become a new person?”
“What on earth are you talking about… … ”
Kim Cheol-woong smiled brightly.
“Have you ever been to a museum and seen artifacts? You probably saw them in books when you were in elementary school.”

A few days later.
Lee Si-young was blankly staring at GH Construction's stock price.
– As you can see in the video, the relics are being reburied. GH Construction said they will investigate the facts…
News and articles continued to pour out.
[Complete halt to Yongsan New Town construction!]
[Was the hiding of the relics planned?]
[GH Construction stock price, how far will it fall?]
[SH Construction’s eastern bidding site is fine. The construction site may change… … .]
The stock price began to fall like a waterfall, seemingly without a bottom.
Lee Si-young, who was suffering huge losses, was unable to sell even as she watched the stock price fall endlessly.
I thought it was a dream.
She had been chewing her fingernails, but then she came to her senses and made a hasty phone call.
“Sell them all now! Hurry up!”
Her face turned bright red.
I felt like my head had turned white like a sheet of paper and I couldn't think of anything.
No, it seemed like I could hear Woojin's voice.
'You have to think about variables too. Sell it.'
The money invested by taking out hotel shares was also in the red, and the money borrowed here and there was evaporating and disappearing.
“Gyaaaah!”
Lee Si-young shouted and threw the cell phone she was holding at the mirror.
The mirror was split open like a spider web and shattered.
If this fact had reached my father's ears, he might have been standing next to Lee Yo-hwan, who had left the country as if he were being exiled.
She picked up her phone again, not knowing where to look as if her pupils had been shaken by an earthquake.
“Woojin… … What should I do? What should I do?”
– It didn't sell.
“That’s not important. Where can I get 200 billion? Later, I… … ”
– I can't get that much money either.
“Then can I borrow some money? I’ll pay you with interest… .”
– I'm having a hard time these days, so I should take it when they tell me to. Calm down and find someone to help you.
“Can someone help me?”
– Look for it. Since it's you, there's bound to be someone who can help you.
Lee Si-young said weakly.
"okay."
Lee Si-young just stood there blankly, not knowing how to move.
Anyone want to help?
Brothers who try to swallow up any gap they see?
He was like that too.
“Someone to help… … Someone to help… … ”
Lee Si-young didn't have anyone in mind.
No, there was just one person.
Lee Hye-rim, a woman born from a humble birth, with that humble blood flowing through her, doesn't she also have property?
Isn't it possible that your father left some property to your brothers without their knowledge?
If you treat me a little more kindly… …
Lee Si-young called Lee Hye-rim without hesitation.
First of all, training came first.
– What's going on? You're calling me like this.
Lee Si-young, looking at the broken mirror, spoke in a friendly voice.
“Does there really have to be a reason for a sister to call her younger brother? Should we go out for a meal together for the first time in a while?”
That moment.
Woojin, wearing a green tracksuit, was sitting on a bench near his house talking on the phone with Kim Cheol-woong.
– Are you ready to learn, what's the timing?
“I’ll tell you when the signal comes.”
GH Construction's stock price had no choice but to jump again, like meshing gears turning.
That's how it was designed.
