Episode 131
131. Police Commissioner
After ordering Yamti to find out the police chief’s movements, he hung up the call.
The cooperation of the Commissioner is needed to quickly implement the bill.
‘But there’s no way I’m going to make it easier just because I say it.’
Then you can take control and give orders.
It was a simple problem.
However, a matter of conscience remains.
‘It’s taking advantage of innocent people, but there’s nothing we can do about it. To establish a new anti-player unit as quickly as possible.’
Even now, there must be a crazy player somewhere committing crimes.
A unit must be established as soon as possible to ease the anxiety of the general public.
At the same time, he also builds his reputation among the general public.
That’s all Ryu Min wants from the police chief.
After taking control, I will only give orders and not touch anything after that.
Then you can continue your life as usual.
Like the president of Plsheva.
Dominating does not mean becoming a puppet with no power to make decisions.
They just faithfully carry out what they are ordered to do.
‘Yamti won the second position as police chief.’
The first is Song Jae-gyeom, the eldest son of LC Group.
Since I am the president of Plseba, I cannot delete it.
‘If we rule the police chief for the second time, there are three positions left.’
I think one of them will have to be used in Nigeria after the new unit is established, and if I leave another seat just in case… … .
‘There is only one seat left.’
There were less seats than expected.
‘Just in case, it would be best to save as much space as possible.’
Ma Gyeong-rok, Ahn Sang-cheol, Heo Tae-seok, Russell, Cho Yong-ho, etc.
This is the reason why I did not dominate the people around me.
Not only is there not enough space to put them in, but there is no need to dominate them.
Because it’s already like your own person.
‘I have a favor to ask of National Assemblyman Lee Seong-hyun, but there is no need for him to rule. ‘Because he made a good first impression.’
Is there anything more powerful and good than saving a life?
Ryu Min gathered his thoughts and took his coat.
Speaking of which, I have to go see Rep. Lee Seong-hyun.
Because we need his cooperation in establishing a new unit.
Ryumin went out again.
* * *
Seonghyeon Lee, who worked late at the National Assembly building, got into the car.
“Where can I take you? “Councilman?”
“Please go home.”
The bodyguard nodded and started the car.
Usually, when something serious like kidnapping occurs, trauma occurs.
There was no way he would have done the same thing, but Lee Seong-hyun hired a bodyguard like he did back then.
Of course, it was a different company, but the fact that it was a player bodyguard was the same.
Seeing that, people around him are worried.
-I was betrayed by my bodyguard, so you hired me again?
-Aren’t you scared to hire players?
But each time, Seonghyun Lee explained.
-Not all players are bad. In any case, the people running rampant right now are just bad.
When I say that, acquaintances who know Lee Seong-hyun well react in surprise.
Is this the Congressman Lee Seong-hyun I know?
Of course that’s right.
‘Things have changed a bit since the kidnapping.’
Not a little bit.
Perception has changed a lot compared to the beginning, when players were all trash.
After all, the person who saved him was the player he hated so much.
‘It was called a black scythe.’
He gave me enlightenment.
It helped me break away from prejudice and face reality.
‘Not all players are the same. There are also players who are just like the black scythe.’
Anyone who holds a weapon should not be treated as a potential criminal.
Depending on how you wield it, it will be divided into good and evil.
‘I have been caught up in too narrow-minded thinking.’
In his anger over losing his son, he only looked at the players from a convenient perspective.
‘Now we have to change. We must face reality and change the world properly.’
The first step toward that end is the player-versus-player bill.
Fortunately, the bill was passed and a new unit will be established to eradicate players.
It may take some time for that to happen, though.
‘I did everything I could. ‘Time will solve the problem.’
Seonghyun Lee thought of a black scythe.
His request to proceed with the bill as is was carried out.
Will this help alleviate my mental debt?
Seonghyun Lee shook his head.
How can I repay you for saving my life?
It would probably not be enough to say that I am grateful for the rest of my life.
‘I couldn’t repay you properly, so it’s a shame we broke up.’
Feeling disappointed, I looked into the black scythe.
Although unfamiliar to the general public, he was an incredibly famous figure among players.
‘He is the highest ranked player who has never missed the top ranking and is the only one to have reached level 80… … .’
I heard that you achieved 1st place in this 8th round as well.
That means it’s still alive.
‘I wish we could meet again… … .’
When asked by police and reporters about what the black scythe looked like, Lee Seong-hyun falsely stated that he only heard a voice.
Even though I knew what it looked like, I didn’t reveal it to people.
Because it seemed like it was for the Black Scythe.
“We’ve arrived, Senator.”
Lee Seong-hyun got out of the car and entered the elevator with his bodyguard.
Lee Seong-hyun, who had not thought much of anything until then, couldn’t help but be shocked when he reached the front entrance of the house.
‘That person… … !’
A tall, bronze-skinned man.
Because the black scythe that saved him was waiting at the front door of his house.
The bodyguard’s eyes became wary at Lee Seong-hyun’s surprised reaction.
“Do you know someone?”
“Ah, yes. This is my acquaintance. “Don’t worry, get off work.”
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
“yes. it’s okay.”
The bronze-skinned man said, “Don’t worry,” after biting the bodyguard.
“I’m sorry, Senator. “You were very surprised by my sudden visit, right?”
“Oh, Ma, I’m a little surprised, not much.”
Anyone who saw it seemed very surprised, but Ryu Min didn’t care.
“I have something to talk about quietly. Can we do it inside?”
“Of course. “Let’s go in.”
Lee Seong-hyeon opened the door using the door lock card key and let Ryu Min into the house.
It was a very ordinary house for a member of the National Assembly to live in, the kind of house you would see in an ordinary home, but Ryu Min knew it.
It is a house filled with precious memories of a man who lost his family.
“Sit here.”
As Ryu Min sat down on the sofa, Lee Seonghyun sat across from him.
“I never thought I would see my lifesaver again like this. “He walked away as if he would never see me again.”
“I have something to ask the councilor.”
“ask?”
Seonghyun Lee, who opened his eyes in surprise, smiled and said.
“This is your chance to repay your lifesaver. “Please tell me anything.”
“Let me be blunt. “The police are planning to create an anti-player unit, right?”
“yes.”
“Please recommend me as the unit commander there.”
“what?”
Seonghyun Lee was so surprised that his eyes popped out.
‘Can you recommend me as a unit commander?’
Since it was a favor, I thought he would simply ask for money, but it was an unexpected request.
That’s why I was curious.
“What is the reason?”
The reason you want to sit in the position of commander.
“Is it because you covet power?”
Seonghyun Lee’s unfiltered question.
It was some kind of test.
‘If he had a dark side, he would look embarrassed here.’
However, the man named Black Scythe in front of me did not even flinch his eyebrows.
That means there is a completely different reason.
‘Are you driven by faith, not personal greed?’
While thinking about that, Ryumin’s mouth opened.
“It’s power. “That’s not bad either.”
“huh?”
Lee Seong-hyun was taken aback by the unexpected answer, but Ryu Min’s words were not over yet.
“But more than that, you could say I want the position because of my personal greed.”
“What if it’s personal greed?”
Ryumin paused for a moment to set the mood.
“Would you say it is the same as the reason Rep. Seong-Hyun Lee proposed the bill?”
“… … .”
“Like you, I hate criminal players. I won’t tell you why. “It will just make the atmosphere gloomy.”
When Seonghyun Lee lowered his gaze as if there was some sad story behind him, he realized something.
The reason why the black scythe readily saved him.
‘I don’t know what’s going on, but you hate criminal players like me. So even if I offered a reward, I didn’t receive it. ‘You’d be satisfied that you’ve already dealt with the criminal!’
Now I vaguely understand the actions of the black scythe.
“Can you listen?”
“Umm… … I have to recommend it, but don’t get your hopes up. Since police players are selected, the authority to select unit members lies with the police commissioner… … .”
“I might be angry, what are you talking about?”
“yes. Still, I will try my best to appeal. Since you saved me and you are a huge celebrity among the players, you are probably qualified to be the vice-captain. However, there is no guarantee that it will work. If the police commissioner insists on discarding any skills and only staffing the police force, there is no way for me to stop him… … .”
“That’s enough. The congressman officially recommended me, and the Commissioner of Police accepted the recommendation and appointed me as unit commander. “If it goes that way, I’ll be satisfied.”
“No, you’re saying that the police chief can get away with it?”
“Then there is nothing we can do. Still, I definitely ask for a recommendation.”
“Okay, I’ll try my best.”
Ryumin stood up as if his business was over.
“Are you going already? At least have a cup of tea… … .”
“no. It’s not okay to stay in someone else’s house for a long time. Well then, see you next time. ah.”
Ryu Min, who was about to turn his head, turned again as if he remembered something.
“Please tell me this one thing.”
“Like what?”
“Is the police chief a man? “Are you a woman?”
* * *
Superintendent of Police, the highest rank among police officers.
There are only two Superintendents of Public Safety in South Korea.
Commissioner of Police and Commissioner of Coastal Police.
One of them, Police Commissioner Lee Cheong-ryong, threw the documents on the desk and sighed.
“Whoa, damn lawmakers. They’re proposing useless bills and annoying people. Tsk.”
What he threw was a bill to establish a new player unit proposed by Lee Seong-hyun.
This bill, which is supposed to select police players under the age of 29, has even been approved by the president and the police chief.
However, it was only approved based on the opinions of citizens.
Lee Cheong-ryong’s true intentions were full of negative opinions.
‘This is a bill that requires summary disposition in the 21st century Republic of Korea. ‘Does this make any sense?’
The bill states that in an emergency situation where the life or death of an ordinary person is at stake, summary action can only be taken against the player.
In other words, even if you kill a criminal player, you will not be held accountable, which is a ridiculous bill to implement in a country where the death penalty has been abolished.
‘Didn’t they come up with this bill because they knew the law was shit? Isn’t it murder if you kill someone while ignoring judicial procedures? ‘Tsk!’
That wasn’t the only thing that was absurd.
‘You’re going to gather police players under the age of 29 and create an anti-player unit? Most people under the age of 29 are police officers. Are you going to catch player criminals who would have a hard time with most veteran detectives by forming a group of rookies with no experience?’
I don’t know, but it’s something that will make senior detectives laugh at me.
There might be complaints that only juniors were promoted.
‘The way I see it, this is completely outrageous. ‘It’s nothing short of nonsense.’
Besides, who would select the commander of such a unit?
They must all be rookies with no experience of catching a single criminal.
“Ugh.”
That time when I was sighing.
“Please pick me.”
Lee Cheong-ryong was startled by the voice heard in the air.
“Oh, X-arm! what?!”
When I turned my head, a person suddenly appeared in the space where there was only a wall.
A man with bronze skin was looking at him.
“Pfft, player!”
Only players have such ridiculous abilities.
Lee Cheong-ryong picked up the pistol he had for security purposes.
I tried to shoot him right away, but he came up to me in an instant and snatched the gun, so it ended up being an attempt.
“That’s too much. “Infiltrating the police chief’s office isn’t a deadly crime, is it?”
“Where is this monster?” … !”
“What a monster. “You’re being too cruel to good citizens.”
“What the hell are you! “What is the purpose!!”
“It’s no use shouting for help. “I’ve already cleaned up everything outside.”
“what?”
Dalkak-
The door to the police chief’s office opened and a woman came in.
“Yamti. “Did the employees solve it?”
“yes. “Everything that happened here was treated as if we had not seen it.”
“W-what are you going to do? no way… … !”
“Hey, Commissioner. “You seem to be thinking of torture. Would we do such an inhumane thing?”
“Well, then what… … .”
“I just need you to carry out a few orders. Yamti.”
As Yamti stepped forward, a pink glow appeared in the police chief’s pupils.
The moment we made eye contact, the situation ended.
It was literally an instant to be captivated.
“Yamti, tell the police chief exactly what I said.”
“I understand, master.”
“Make every effort to have a new anti-player unit established and active as quickly as possible. and… … .”
Ryumin said with a grin.
“Appoint Black Scythe as the commander of the anti-player army.”
