The Reincarnated Cop Who Strikes With Wealth - Chapter 21.4
Please Set the Table (4)
At the Emperor Motel.
We moved our surveillance station to right below Song Dae-Ak’s room.
It didn’t seem likely that he would leave his room, but it would allow us to prepare for any unexpected accidents.
Although I had even pretended to be a motel cleaner in order to stick a listening device to the bottom of his bed…
The problem was that the only thing we had heard all day were moaning noises.
Mong-Doo couldn’t take any more of this and threw his earphones away.
“He’s supposed to be on the run, right? If you look at the way he’s living it up, it seems more like he’s on vacation.”
At that moment, a woman entered his room carrying some delicious food.
I breathed out a sigh while checking the time.
“It’s nearly time for it to arrive. Just hold on for a bit longer.”
I had confirmed that the letter we sent arrived at the gang’s office this morning.
The letter which contained the details of the VIP party and only the best of the best among all the photos we had taken of the secret rendezvous.
Of course we had sent it under Dal-Gon’s name.
Ring- Ring-
The call was from Black.
He had gone out to buy some food from the convenience store, so why was he calling now?
“Hello?”
-Newbie. Noh Gil-Sik and a few of his guys just got on the elevator.
“Okay. We’re on it.”
At Black’s call, we put on our earphones and went on alert.
Because our strategy might need to be modified at any time, depending on their reactions.
Bang, bang- Stomp, stomp, stomp-
It felt like the roof was shaking.
They seemed to be in a hurry.
Mong-Doo raised the previously lowered volume and adjusted the radio signal.
[Aaaah!]
“Shit. That scared me.”
The first thing we heard was a woman’s coquettish moan.
Then, in the background, there was Noh Gil-Sik’s voice.
Knock, knock-
[Hyungnim. It’s Gil-Sik. There’s an emergency.]
[…fuck. What’s going on?]
Pissed off, Song Dae-Ak opened the door.
Only then could Noh Gil-Sik’s voice be heard more clearly.
[We received a letter earlier from Dal-Gon, but I think that you need to see it personally.]
We held our breaths as we waited for his reaction.
Claaang-! Smash! Crash!
[Kya!]
It wasn’t long before we heard a ruckus.
The sound of things breaking after being thrown as soon as he could get his hands on them went on for a seemingly endless amount of time.
[Shim Mi-Yong. Where the hell is Shim Mi-Yong?!”]
[Hyungnim. Why don’t you calm down first-]
[That motherfucker!]
With a gulp, I pricked up my ears.
Should Song Dae-Ak be unable to endure his rage and rush off to confront the Madame, then we would have to cut him off here.
Thud-! Smash!
Through my body, I could feel the vibrations running down from the ceiling.
When it seemed like Song Dae-Ak wouldn’t be able to calm himself down, Noh Gil-Sik couldn’t keep watching and personally tried to help him rein in his temper.
[Hyungnim. Please calm down. If Dal-Gon’s right, then we’re in a serious crisis right now. That bastard Ma Eun-Tae has gotten hold of our shares and the slush fund-]
[So the rumors from last time were right. That bitch! Even though she cried and pretended to not know what I was talking about.]
[In any case, it seems like they have been preparing for this ever since we pulled our kids out of the club. The situation is a little-]
[From then? Wasn’t that more than a year ago. Aaaargh!]
However rather than calming him down, Noh Gil-Sik’s words only served to stoke his anger even higher.
Following this, it seemed like Gil-Sik decided that he should instead wait in silence and kept his mouth shut.
That aside, for this betrayal to have been kept a secret for more than a year.
It seemed like her relationship with Ma Eun-Tae ran deeper than we expected.
A woman like her had dared to stage a tug-of-war between the heads of two different gangs.
No matter how you looked at it, you had to admit that it was impressive.
Even without our earphones, we started to hear tears mixed in with Song Dae-Ak’s cries of rage.
It looked like he had snapped out of it.
[Hyungnim. Please get a hold of yourself. We still have a chance. Since we’ve learned about this in advance, all we need to do is take action.]
[By what means?]
[According to Dal-Gon, they’ll be holding a VIP Party the day after tomorrow. Since it holds an important significance, there is a high possibility that Ma Eun-Tae will also be in attendance.]
[The day after tomorrow?]
That’s right. That’s how you do it.
Well done Noh Gil-Sik!
Mong-Doo and I nodded as we exchanged looks.
