The Reincarnated Cop Who Strikes With Wealth

Chapter 33.2



Be Careful of Sparks (2)

“When it was you guys who were cooperating with the Cheonyonghoe, there was still such a thing as business principles. Since the kids were Korean, you made sure that they at least got a fair price.”

“Eun-Tae-hyong would sometimes drop a few extra pennies in your kids’ hands before they left as thanks for their service.”

“But these bastards, since they’re short on people, do you know where they keep getting their extra kids from?”

Min Seok-Gi paused for consideration as he frowned.

It was obvious that the traces of the Joongmae Gang’s activities would be uncovered in no time after repeatedly pulling this sort of crime; and not just in any country, but in Korea especially.

Not only was the size of their country small in comparison to others, it was also overflowing with things like car blackboxes and CCTVs.

“You’ve seen the news, right? About that granddaughter of a Congressman who’s gone missing.”

Since it had been on the TV from the first thing this morning until now, there was no way he couldn’t know about it.

Min Seok-Gi nodded his head.

“But what about it? …no way, really?”

He dropped the lighter with a groan.

For them to have whisked away, not just anyone, but the granddaughter of a Congressman.

As if he was in a lot of pain, the cigarette held between Myeong Bo-Hoon’s lips was trembling.

“I can’t be too certain either, but given the circumstances, it looks like those bastards really may have done it without realizing what they were doing. The thing is, we’ve got a high-ranking police officer in our organization.”

Min Seok-Gi didn’t seem surprised at hearing that they had a police officer on their side.

You might be able to guess that this was because Exodus had managed to get itself deeply entrenched in the world of politics.

“From what he’s heard, the investigation is being directed to the human trafficking trade with China. They’re even putting in a request for cooperation from the Chinese Public Security Bureau.”

“Serves them right. Those stupid Joongmae Gang bastards. They thought that they were flying high, but now they’re going to crash face-first into the ground.”

“Tch. You still haven’t figured what kind of situation we’re in?”

“What?”

“You’ve heard about the incident that took place during the presidency of Kim Young-Sam, right?”

During the Kim Young-Sam administration, a small commotion had burst out in Mokpo.

A civilian who was having a meal at a nightclub got into an argument with an employee over the exorbitant prices and ended up getting beaten by the employees.

Enraged by this, he took out an advertisement in the local newspaper, organizing a petition to send to the President, and

“According to the stories, it turned the whole country upside down.”

A call to action was sent from the Ministry of the Interior to the Commissioner of the National Police Agency, and right on down to the station chief of the Mokpo Police.

With a fire burning in their eyes, the police officers captured the gangsters who were the main culprits behind this incident.

The problem was that they didn’t just stop with the main culprits, they rounded up all the other punks littering their district in one full sweep.

As a joke, it’s said that was the first and last time that Mokpo was completely free of gangsters.

It was a story that could be considered a legend to all those who made a living with their fists.

There was no way that Min Seok-Gi had never heard of it before.

Myeong Bo-Hoon continued to speak with an extremely serious look on his face.

“Because of those Joongmae Gang bastards, we’re all in danger of being set on fire by a stray spark. If their connection to the Cheonyonghoe gets discovered, then once Quodu goes down the Guma Gang, who also did business with the Chinese, will be in for it as well.”

It was with this that Min Seok-Gi finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

Although they were no longer a part of the whole deal, there would definitely be records left of their past transactions.

On top of that, as this was the granddaughter of a congressman that they were talking about, then there was no question that the remnants of the Guma Gang would disappear completely.

“H-hey. How the fuck did things get like this?”

“But there’s yet another problem, our comrade in the police is also in trouble. No matter what he does to cover the traces of his involvement with Quodu, it’s bound to get out eventually.”

“…so you’re saying we’re all fucked together then?”

“Just keep listening. Because of all this, he gave me a call. He told me that we should grab the Joongmae Gang bastards ourselves and clean up our trails before they screw everything up. And he also said that it would be for the best if we can do this before the Congressman’s granddaughter gets sent to China.”

Min Seok-Gi kept nodding his head in agreement.

“However, the problem is that they can’t figure out those guys’ location. From their movements they seem to be based around Incheon, but if you take a look at where the abductions take place, it also seems like they’re somewhere in Suan…”

“So that’s why you came looking for us? You want us to find out where those bastards have made their lair.”

“I’m glad that you understand what I’m trying to get at. While I might be involved in shipping the girls over to China, aren’t I still just the former president of an entertainment agency? Even if I wanted to go looking for them myself, I don’t have the means for it.”

Although they were working together, the paths they walked were very different.

Only a gangster who was part of that world could navigate the hidden jungle of organized crime.
