The Birth of the 9th Circle Wizard

A few days later, I got a call from Na Yerin.

Her voice was very careful.

- Detective Jung, who was dealt with as a suicide, dug out areas that should not be touched. So he was killed.

"what is that?"

- We investigated the flow of funds from Gangnam entertainment establishments. The problem is that even the chief of the Gangnam police station or the chief of the detective is investigating.

I objected to it, but it seems that it happened when Detective Jung proceeded alone.

A picture was drawn in my mind roughly as to how it went.

“You mean that money has flowed into several places, and one of them is Cheonwoohoe?”

- There is no place in Korea that is not entangled with power. Police, Prosecutors, Magic Bureau, ruling party politicians, opposition politicians.

There is no place to uncover the unjust death of Detective Jung.

all are in one place

It was like trying to hit a rock with an egg and it broke.

“There is not a single place that is clean.”

- There are people who hate dirty money, but no one hates women.

Money to those who love money.

It means that they offered sexual favors to people who didn't like dirty money.

“Can you tell who is the Cheonwoohoe on the list?”

- There will be no names written in the diary. Most of them are people who run errands for money.

There was no way Cheonwoohoe could be a detective who could easily find a clue.

- To find Cheonwoohoe, I think we should first find the person who killed Detective Jeong and trace it back.

“Do you have any clues?”

- The last person that Detective Jeong met before he died was Inspector General Kim Cheol-ho, the same detective's 3rd division officer. What would you like to do? Shall I send someone to find out?

“No, I’m still a police officer, so that kind of approach is not good. i will meet you

uh."

If you followed the clues from the bottom, it was clear that you would reach the top.

After Han Joo-hyeok, director of the Magic Bureau, left, Kim Jong-wang, as if exhausted, went back to the sofa and lay flat on his back.

“Deputy boss. May I bring you a drink?”

“Cool Coke Zero. Hurry up with the ice.”

From the early days of SW Company, Kim Jong-wang

Senior secretary Hye-jin Lee, who had been an assistant, hurriedly brought a drink.

“What did you say that made you so tired?”

“Ah, that’s… .”

Kim Jong-wang, who was no different from a lab hacker, was able to bring the company this far because there were experts in each field around him.

In the case of Lee Hye-jin, she has been playing the role of holding the center of Kim Jong-wang, who does not know where to go.

“… They made such an offer.”

The weight of the name of the organization Cheonwoohoe

not light

Kim Jong-wang was well aware of that.

The private organization of those at the peak of power had the power to seize and shake the country.

“But why are you making it so difficult for the Director of the Magic Bureau? The position of vice president of SW company is never inferior to that... .”

The world's best software company.

It is a transcendent corporation that implements the national basic income system with taxes paid to the state.

Such a vice president showing a low attitude

From Hyejin's point of view, she could be puzzled.

“Hey Jin-ah. Do you think money is above power? Do you think there is power over money?”

"that… .”

Hyejin Lee could not open her mouth easily.

This is because it may be applied differently depending on the situation.“The position of director of the Magic Bureau is not at the level you think it is.”

Just because it is ranked 13th in the national protocol does not mean that it is 13th in power in Korea.

It's just that I'm a bit out of touch with politics and I'm in 13th place.

In terms of domestic influence, it was unrivaled.

“The Magic Bureau is more powerful than the prosecution, the police, and the NIS combined. In a wizarding society with a strong hierarchical order, the position of the director is absolute.”

Politicians who tried to reduce the power of such a magical country suffered from all kinds of gossip before disappearing.

It was an unstoppable power.

“So, have you made a decision?”

Kim Jong-wang answered Hye-jin's question easily.

couldn't

“What do you think, Hyejin?”

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with going in.”

“Is that so? If you join a private organization where powerful people gather, the benefits will be greater than the losses. There's nothing to worry about. However… .”

“But?”

“As the vice president and not the president, it is not for me to decide. When the boss gets a call, we should discuss it and make a decision.”

At that, Hyejin Lee lowered her voice and spoke.

“The boss is still going to show up.

Don't you think? It has already been 6 years since the company was founded... .”

“Wow! what is that... .”

Coughing was a habit that came out when Kim Jong-kwang was in trouble.

Hyejin Lee ended her conversation there and left her waiting room with her empty Coke glass.

And she called somewhere.

“Yes, chief. The vice president is thinking positively. However, I would like to ask the president for his opinion first and then make a decision.”

The caller is none other than the Magic Kingdom Bureau

It was Jang Han Joo-hyuk.

“Yes, I do not know who the president is yet. The vice president is extremely reluctant to talk about it... .”

After hanging up her phone, Hyejin Lee looked around to see if anyone could hear her.

Then she made sure that no one was there and she hurriedly she exited the hallway.

Jung Soon-ju's father, Detective Jung Yong-joon, was late at night looking at his actions before and after the day of his death.

He worked overtime, drank alcohol with an informant, and fell asleep in the house when he got into a car accident the next day.

He was not seriously injured and immediately left the hospital, went to see someone, and then disappeared.

‘And three days later, it was found in the reservoir.’

Although his neck showed signs of drowsiness, the police closed the investigation as a suicide.

‘The author is the deputy sergeant major, Kim Cheol-ho.’

I followed Inspector Kim on the way home from work.

Then it was easy.

He waited until he went to a blind spot where there was no CCTV, and after sleeping with sleep magic, the moment moved together to the villa in Anmyeondo.

"wake up."

Ice water was poured on Kim Cheol-ho, who was sleeping in the center of the dinning hall.

“Wow!”

Kim Chul-ho is in a state of blinding magic.

When he woke up, he couldn't see his eyes. In a panic, he crawled around.

“Chul-ho Kim. I have a question for you about Detective Jung Yong-jun.”

"uh?"

Kim Cheol-ho's body stood still.

He turned his body in the direction of the sound.

“Who are you? Why is Inspector Jung Yong-jun… .”

“I ask questions. If you say something else instead of answering in the future, you will be in hell.”

“Come on, wait! turn on the light No, what did you do with my eyes!”

“I knew about the death of Detective Jung Yong-jun.

tell me what is there Detectives will move in pairs, so why didn't you accompany Detective Jeong that day?"

Kim Cheol-ho did not focus on Soon-won's words.

“My eyes! What did you do to my eyes!”

“I said If you don't answer my questions, you'll see hell."

Soon-won knows how to torture people.

Women are most afraid of getting hurt on the face, and men are most afraid of having problems with men's functions.

He sent powerful electric magic there for a taste.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“If you don’t want to be an eunuch, you better tell me.”

“I will tell you! say! So please stop!”

Kim Cheol-ho raised both his hands and both feet in torture, which gave a man a greater fear than death.

“I, Detective Jung investigated the club’s Burning Sun money transfer and prostitution brokerage.”

The burning sun is the most in Gangnam

It was a big and prosperous club.

“Have you heard of Cheonwoohoe?”

“Oh no, first time I hear it.”

All the magic that could see through the truth represented the truth.

“Who killed Detective Jung? Who ordered it?”

"that… .”

“I can keep your eyesight forever.”

“It’s a magic kingdom! Agents of the Magic Kingdom killed it!”

“Who is the Magic Kingdom?”

“I don’t know until there. Really. I swear!”

sight and eunuch.

Neither of them was a precious thing that should not be lost, so he desperately defended himself.

"I do not know? it's comfortable Not knowing is a sin.”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

As the torture resumed, Kim Cheol-ho finally raised the white flag.

“I don’t know who it is, but anyone who might know it knows!”

“Who is that?”

“Chief!”

“You should have said that from the beginning.”

From then on it was simple.

Through the same process, the chief of the detective was kidnapped.

As we continued to abduct people and trace back the clues, we were able to arrive at any name.

“Song Seok-oh?”

It was the name of the father-in-law before the return.

♦ * *

The kidnapped people erased their memories and sent them back.

There was a side effect of magic, so forgetfulness and dementia increased, but because it was a crime, there was no feeling of guilt.

‘I feel like I want to kill them all.’

Neither monsters nor demons wanted to indiscriminately kill humans.

Chinese wizards tried to kill themselves, so it was an inevitable choice, but if possible, without killing humans

I wanted to make them judged by the law.

‘Is the father-in-law Cheonwoohoe?’

do not know yet.

As most of the names in the diary were people who simply received money to move, it could have been no different as a father-in-law.

‘The father-in-law is… .'

He is a man with a unique background.While being a wizard, he was the godfather of the catering industry who had nothing to do with magic and entered the restaurant business and owned more than 40 franchise brands.

In his later years he had amassed quite a fortune and

Afterwards, he wanted to gain fame and accepted Soon-won, a battle wizard, as his son-in-law.

‘I’ll have to meet him in person first and ask.’

If this were true, I was very shocked.

He spent his life fighting the devil, but it was hard to believe that the father-in-law was on the devil's side.

♦ * *

There is a man named Lee Dong-yeon.

He put together 20 years of his corporate life and

The sum of the severance pay he received and the money he has accumulated so far

He opened a franchise bakery.

It was burdensome because the materials purchased at the head office were expensive, but fortunately, because of the brand name value, many customers came, and the income was stable.

Until he gets a remodeling order.

"Wait. Do you want to spend 30 million won to remodel the inside of the store?”

The reason was that when a supervisor visited the headquarters last week, the building was too old to see the brand image.

“I earn a month’s income and live on a monthly basis, where is that money? Loan?

What kind of loan are you using to remodel a decent store?”

He gave several warnings, but when he refused, the contract was terminated.

It was no longer possible to run a franchise bakery under the name.

"it's okay. You can open a new bakery under my name.”

I hung up the sign saying it was Lee Dong-yeon's bakery and started business again.

It was not difficult to do business as there were regular customers in a similar structure to the existing franchise.

Rather, the head office sells it at a higher price.

Income went up because they didn't purchase materials, and the quality of life improved because they didn't have to work forcibly.

"uh? What is that?"

Happiness lasted only 3 months.

In the building next door, a new bakery of the brand that he had terminated his contract with.

“Maybe it’s a coincidence… .”

As a result of the upheaval, the brand bakery offered an 80% discount as it was an open event.

“When I opened the bakery,

I didn't... .”

If it is 80%, it is a loss-making business with no cost.

Unless you're an idiot, you could tell that it was a bakery built for the purpose of retaliation.

“I can’t help it. Let’s move.”

It was no use.

They moved to a different area altogether, but the brand bakery followed and opened the same store next door.

Now, because of the investment cost, there was no money to move.

The basic income system just started, but

He insisted on harassing him by filing a number of lawsuits.

Causes traffic accidents, noise between floors, and visits to organized gangs.

It was like a tunnel with no end in sight.

[Four family members found dead in Daejeon. Extreme choice when business is down.]

The man who saw the news chuckled.

“Uh-huh! The ten-year-old jam is coming down!”

It was Chairman Song Seok-oh, headquartered in Seoul.

When he laughed, the secretaries around him burst into laughter as well.

“What is so funny?”

Chairman Song Seok-oh was startled by the sudden voice and looked around.

A man with a black hood over his face stood tall in the center of his office.

It was Jung Soon-won.
