Closed Beta That Only I Played - Chapter 509: Juyoung Hong (36)

In the control room of Chaesan Lee’s mansion.

“…”

“…”

“…”

There was a heavy silence in the situation room.

In particular, Kyuchol Han, the security chief of the mansion, and a former colonel, couldn’t believe it all. He could somewhat understand the intruder crushing the feet of his subordinates by trampling on them, but catching bullets with bare hands was something he could not understand at all.

In the meantime, as someone who prided himself on his vast experience, he quickly pulled down the barricades that divided the areas of the mansion.

Actually, he also questioned the need for installed barricades when he first started working here..

But he could not help but be stunned to see the barricades being torn apart like a piece of paper by the intruder who was like a superman that he had only seen in movies and on TV.

At that moment, his subordinates shouted at him.

“Captain, what should I do?”

“Should I call the police? Or should I call an army unit?

“…”

His subordinates called him, trembling in fear.

Hearing their voice, he thought he needed to allay their fears because fear was the worst enemy, as he learned through his career in the army.

But he could not respond at all because he himself was stricken with fear.

He shook his head quickly trying to calm his fear, then pondered over his subordinates’ question. He realized that it was useless to kill the intruder with guns.

But he soon rejected their appeal to call the police or an army unit because calling them to this place where his boss amassed his wealth illegally didn’t make any sense.

‘Then the only option is…”

Faced with the intruder who moved forward by smashing the barricades easily, he realized that he had only one option, namely, escaping.

So he said, “Where is the chairman right now?”

“He is in the study room in the first basement.”

“Does he know the current situation?”

“Well, he knows an intruder has broken into the mansion.”

“Then evacuate him to the outside first. You guys…”

He was going to order them to stay put and expel the intruder, but he didn’t say it this time because he knew they wouldn’t obey.

After all, they were hired by contract.

Instead he said, “Report the status of the intruder to me every minute. If he takes any unusual actions, report to me right away.”

“Yes!”

“Got it!”

After ordering them, he quickly moved to the study room on the first basement along with five subordinates that he trusted most.

In the hallway of Chaesan’s mansion.

Slam! Slam! Slam! Slam!

I broke the barricades blocking my way and continued to move forward.

Those watching me through CCTV would probably think I was wandering after getting lost. Of course, I wasn’t actually lost. I just pretended to be so.

This place was a traditional Korean mansion, but it was so huge.

At a glance, it seemed that he had only one basement floor in his mansion.

That’s why I deliberately moved seemingly aimlessly.

If they were prudent, they would try to evacuate Chaesan Lee first instead of attempting to block me. And they seemed to be quite busy at the moment.

I instinctively felt that some of them at some distance from me were moving around quickly. I wondered if they were trying to charge at me, but they didn’t. Instead they seemed to quickly move down again as if to take an elevator.

“I wish they could head to Chaesan Lee…”

Of course, it didn’t matter if they didn’t go to him because he was like a mouse in a pot. But I felt strongly that they were headed toward him, so I stayed put because I could easily catch up to them when they arrived at their destination.

Besides, the iron barricades couldn’t block me at all.

Slam!

A little later, I lifted my right foot and slammed it down on the floor.

The floor vibrated loudly just like the iron barricades that blocked me from all directions, and a hole appeared where my foot struck. So I dropped through the hole and quickly ran to the place that I felt they were heading to.

***

In Chaesan Lee’s basement study room.

[Captain! The intruder smashed the floor and jumped down to the first basement!]

“What the heck are you talking about?”

Kyuchol Han could not help but be startled because he was preparing to escape with Chaesan Lee at the moment when he heard his subordinate’s report through the earphones he was wearing.

The intruder simply moved forward, breaking the iron barricades instead of breaking through the floor or ceiling until now. But he suddenly changed tactics. But he suddenly changed his moving tactics.

So Kyuchol couldn’t help but feel a sense of foreboding because it was the first basement floor where he and his boss were located at the moment.

He could confirm through his earphones why he had such a feeling.

[Captain! The intruder is moving quickly toward you and the chairman…]

Bang!

A roar echoed through his earphones before his subordinate could finish.

At the same time, he saw the intruder appearing right before him by easily destroying the sturdy door which was as thick as a wall as if it was thin wood.

He and his boss were in the worst situation.

Then it struck him that the intruder had tricked him because he showed up as soon as he moved down here with his subordinates.

The intruder said, “I’ve finally found you!”

Kyuchol could not understand the situation, but the intruder’s voice sounded like that of a youth. Of course, he didn’t forget to point the pistol at the intruder, even though he knew that shooting was useless against him.

Anyway, he struggled in desperation, cursing the damn situation he was in.

***

When I landed after breaking a thick wall, I finally found a man who looked exactly like Chaesan Lee that Director Sok mentioned in the document.

So I said to him, “Were you on your way out in a hurry during the night?”

I asked casually as if I pretended not to know anything about him.

He then responded in a low voice, “Hum, that rumor was true. When I heard Debius was robbed by an Asian, I didn’t believe it…Oh my God, who the hell are you? How come you are affiliated with the Myongjin Group?”

“Ooops! I didn’t know there were such rumors!”

I walked toward him, replying to his question, because I needed to talk with him in person.

At that moment, somebody shouted at me, “Stop there!”

Then all of the bodyguards surrounding him pointed their pistols at me as if they were about to open fire at any time.

So I said, “Well, I understand that you are a big player in the private loan market and a giant of the underground economy. Are you also involved in arms trafficking?”

All the people I bumped into while I was coming here were armed with pistols without any exception, but no weapons including pistols could stop me.

So I kept walking toward him.

Then their leader shouted, “Fire!”

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
