Episode 107 [ Merchants (3) ]
“This is a conspiracy. “It’s a trap!”
Daigo shouted at the top of his lungs as he was dragged away. But the old chairman didn’t pay any attention to him.
“We may actually have fallen into a trap.”
The chief secretary next to me gave careful advice.
The chairman glanced at him.
“Does it matter if it’s a trap or not?”
He immediately lowered his head upon hearing the chairman’s words. It was useless advice.
“sorry.”
The chairman clicked his tongue and continued talking.
“He came in with a wiretap and I could even hear his voice teasing me. That’s why I can’t believe the photos he brought.”
“yes.”
“I can’t forgive the guy who made me waste my time with nonsense.”
The chairman frowned at the charred table. It was a table I liked, but it ended up getting damaged.
“Check security again. “They brought something like that into the chairman’s office. Find the person responsible and take action.”
Once again, the chief secretary lowered his head.
“All right.”
Looking at the charred table, the chief secretary thought of the broken lighter wiretap emitting smoke.
I was obviously searched according to regulations and went through a metal detector. But I can’t find it.
It was my first time seeing a lighter-shaped wiretap with a strange pattern on it, but it was also the first time I knew such technology existed. As expected, America was different.
In fact, the security personnel were not responsible. However, he did not tell such a story to the chairman.
What the chairman wanted was not the truth, but someone who would take responsibility for the failure.
The chairman clicked his tongue and stood up.
“It would be impossible to properly confirm this.”
“Still, I’ll check the photos I brought.”
The Chairman nodded and left the room with the Chief Secretary.
“Where can I take you.”
“To the lab.”
“All right.”
A moment later, a luxury car pulled out of the headquarters parking lot.
The car quickly drove away from headquarters.
Kyung-hoon sat in the car and stared at the car the chairman was in.
He was sitting in a parked car on the side of the road near Mitsubishi. It was a self-driving car brought by Eve.
The car the chairman was riding in got further and further away.
The car was moving away, but Kyung-hoon did not chase after it.
-The chairman’s car is heading to the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Research Institute.
This was because Eve knew the destination.
Figuring out the network navigation destination was easy for Eve.
Kyung-hoon looked at the lighter in his hand while listening to Eve’s voice.
It was a lighter-type wiretap with the same pattern engraved on it as the wiretap that was forcibly given to Daigo.
The listening device itself was no different, but the pattern engraved on its surface was completely different. This symbol was a new Manazine developed by Omar some time ago. Although it was a hint from the backpack’s pattern, creating a pattern that hides the inside without a mana stone was worthy of praise.
This pattern was able to fool the eyes of various surveillance equipment.
As of now, only detectors such as metal detectors and radio detectors can be fooled, and time is limited, but even that was amazing.
It was all thanks to this symbol that Daigo was not caught by the metal detector when he entered the president’s office, and that he was not caught while wiretapping continued. The reason the wiretapping device was activated at the end was because the effect of the pattern ended there.
“It’s a little short, but it’s great.”
The test of the new equipment was also completed satisfactorily. Kyunghoon put the lighter into his inner pocket.
The chairman’s car disappeared from sight, but Kyung-hoon continued to wait in front of the company.
This was because the car he was waiting for had not arrived yet.
Boom.
At that time, another car pulled up from the headquarters parking lot.
This time it was a van with dark tint on the inside.
However, Eve, equipped with a high-performance camera and an infrared camera, could not be stopped.
-Probability that the person sitting in the back seat is Robert. It’s 98%.
Finally, the car I had been waiting for came out.
“Trace it.”
-All right.
As the van drove away, the latest self-driving car standing on the side of the road began to move slowly.
Kyung-hoon’s car followed the van from a distance.
*
The Mitsubishi Group research center on the outskirts of Tokyo was currently secretly conducting research.
It was research on the mana stone generator.
The chairman arrived at the laboratory and was looking at the machine placed in the center of the laboratory.
In the center of the laboratory was a mana stone generator that appeared to be completed.
The generator was almost identical to the mana stone generator prototype released by Natas Corporation.
It was a mana stone generator made from materials collected by Mitsubishi Group, Tomo Group, and various partner companies.
In the meantime, many people were imprisoned and kicked out of Natas, but they were eventually able to create the same generator.
Some CEOs said that reverse engineering would be enough when the actual product was released, but that was just ignorance.
The chairman knew well how dire the preemption effect was.
Moreover, reverse engineering could also have many problems. There were more than one place where material supply and patents were at stake.
So I stole the blueprints and information in advance, but the situation turned out to be more serious than expected.
The chairman frowned as he looked at the generator.
It was a generator that had never been moved since it was completed. At best, the generator created by extracting data did not even budge, let alone generate electricity. I asked experts why it wasn’t moving, but they all just shook their heads.
“The rest is normal. The problem is, I don’t understand the part where electricity is generated at all.”
“It is completely different from the mana stone development tested in the lab. It has a structure that is difficult to understand.”
“The part about how it is converted to electricity doesn’t make sense. There is no intermediate process at all. There are only a few geometric drawings under the mana stone. There is no way a generator like this can move.”
In the end, all they could say was that they didn’t know.
The experts shook their heads, but Natas was already conducting a practical test of the mana stone generator. Since there was the real thing, it couldn’t be a lie. “It would be useless even if the three major
Japanese groups joined forces and attached the best scientists and engineers. “Are you saying there isn’t one?”
The chairman clicked his tongue again as he looked at the technicians pacing around the generator.
The chief secretary approached the chairman.
“The photo verification has been completed. The photo Daigo brought appears to be genuine.”
“so?”
The Chairman stared at the Chief of Staff. It seemed like he had no intention of changing the punishment given to Daigo.
The Chief of Staff quickly continued,
‘They say there is no significant difference. Experts who checked the drawings confirmed that there was no difference between the generator and the drawings. .”
We pulled out our deep-rooted manpower to see if there was anything wrong, but we found nothing.
Rather, we were only made fun of by the other party.
“However, the raw material used to draw the pattern does not seem to be a common dye. The name of the dye was empty.”
“okay?”
Still, it seemed like it wasn’t completely a lie.
The chairman frowned. There was only one thing to look into right now.
“It’s not too late, right? Call Daigo.”
“All right.”
The chief secretary immediately called.
“You haven’t already finished your work, right? That’s good. Change Daigo. The chairman said he had something to ask.”
The chief secretary politely handed the phone to the chairman.
-Chairman of the association. Please save me.
As soon as I answered the phone, I heard Daigo’s voice crying.
“Do you want to live?”
-yes? yes yes You can do anything.
It was a voice that seemed like it could really do anything.
The chairman was satisfied. In this state, it was clear that there was nothing he couldn’t remember.
“Do you remember the symbol drawn on the generator?”
“Yes, yes! I remember.”
“Do you know what dye is used to draw that pattern?”
“Ah… that’s the dye brought in from outside…”
“I don’t seem to remember.”
“Oh no! It was clearly brought by a Korean awakened person. He was a very scary person. They said he belonged to an organization… Ah ah ah! I remembered!”
The voice on the phone was louder than ever again.
“I heard him say that his organization has taken over all of Korea. The leader is Yang Yang Gang-deok. He said he belongs to the leader Yang Gang-deok. He said it was something he brought with him!”
The chairman smiled. I heard information that I would never hear again. A gap appeared in the blocked wall.
“Do you remember anything else?”
“Ah ah…”
The chairman gave him time, but unfortunately he couldn’t recall any more memories.
“Good work. It was helpful.”
“Thank you thank you!”
In response to the Chairman’s words, Daigo repeatedly expressed his gratitude in a happy voice.
The Chairman handed the phone to the Chief of Staff.
“Change the phone.”
The chief secretary who answered the phone ordered the owner to return the phone.
A subordinate’s voice was heard.
The chief secretary looked at the chairman.
“I am asking what to do with the work in progress.”
To the Chief Secretary’s words, the Chairman responded with an indifferent expression,
“The mistake is too big to cover up with this much effort. Let’s proceed as is.”
“All right.”
The chief secretary relayed exactly what the chairman said and then hung up the phone.
“It’s a Korean organization… what should I do to set the tone?”
“I understand that all connections with domestic organizations have been severed due to the recent uprising. I think it would be better to ask a Korean company to help us.”
“That would be good. Was he the vice president of SG Group? Since he’s been so anxious, it would be good to give him some work at this point. Contact me.”
“All right.”
The chairman glared at the mana stone generator. If that generator moved, the stumbling company and Japan could revive again. *** -Go
ahead
.
Eve responded to the words coming from the phone.
“I understand.”
It was Eve who spoke, but it wasn’t Eve’s voice. It was a sharp man’s voice.
Until now, the person who had received the president’s call was neither the chief secretary’s subordinate nor Daigo.
It was all Eve’s answer. Daigo’s
voice was already known and it was his subordinate’s voice. The voice was collected and recognized as he chased after the van.
And from their conversation, he was able to figure out what they would do to Daigo.
Kyung-hoon hid himself under the embankment and looked at the opposite embankment. A
desolate embankment with no people in sight. The van that Kyung-hoon was chasing was standing there.
People got out of the van. They were the secretary’s subordinates.
But Daigo did not get out.
The van was still running.
One of the people who got out of the car opened the car door and went under the front seat. I put my hand in.
Boom.
The car started rolling forward. The man who put his hand under the front seat also hurriedly escaped. The car
continued moving forward. The car soon reached the end of the embankment.
Plop.
The car jumped into the sea and remained under the water. began to sink.
Daigo did not come out until the end.
-It seems he was thinking of treating it as suicide.
To Eve’s words, Kyung-hoon replied,
“We can’t let it go like that. Did you report it?”
-I have reported it to the police along with the video I just took… They are now on the scene.
They had to be locked up so that they wouldn’t be caught stealing the phone call in the middle of it.
-As expected, the Chairman of Mitsubishi contacted the Vice Chairman of SG Company. .Things are going according to plan.
“Okay. Then shall we prepare? “Contact Chairman Yang Kang-deok.”
-All right.
Kyung-hoon had not forgotten the past.
He still remembered the Vice President of SG Corporation who tried to ruin the Awakened Association’s demonstration by sending a contaminated Awakened.
Kyung-hoon walked towards the car parked under the embankment.
Beep peep.
Police cars quickly passed by Kyung-hoon as he walked.
