LF Apartment room number 1103 in Jamsilbon-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul.

Namgoong -won, who was lying on the sofa in the living room watching the president of South Korea’s public announcement, raised his upper body and leaned toward the bedroom when he noticed manager Lee Hye-jin, who had just come in, was about to leave again as soon as she took her shower, he said.

“Are you going out again?”

“Yeah, Team Leader Park caught the man we’d been after for weeks. Thus, I am taking him to headquarters. ”

“What? That man who is known as the Duke’s First Man? ”

“Yes!”

Manager Lee Hye-jin replied while fixing her makeup.

“Oh! So, you’re staying out tonight? ”

“Maybe? If we were able to get the information we wanted from him, I might be able to come back in the early morning! ”

“Oh! Again, you are going to sleep alone? ”

“Aren’t you too tired from working these days? Sleep well alone! ”

“OMG!”

Namgoong -won, who looked disappointed, sank into the sofa. Meanwhile, on television, President Choo Un-hee just stood on the podium of the press center and began her public address.

President Choo Un-hee, who is known as the Smile Angel for always showing a gentle smile in public, appeared gloomy today.

After ten minutes, Namgoong -won, who was watching the public announcement, said as his eyes got bigger.

“Oh! My darling? Did you already know that? ”

Hearing Namgoong -won’s sudden remark, manager Lee Hye-jin, who had just finished her makeup, came out to the living room and replied.

“Watch television! Listen to the president’s speech..... ”

Namgoong -won was taken aback by President Choo Un-hee’s public statement, in which she claimed that the former chief of the reconnaissance bureau, Jo Myung-rok, was to blame for the bombing accident and that Kim Hyung-won was behind it. He said while pointing to the television.

“What? He was the mastermind behind the terrorist attack that killed him. What exactly that mean? ”

Namgoong -won alternated between watching TV and looking at manager Lee Hye-jin with puzzled expressions.

“Well, that’s not true. Actually, Kim Hyung-won told Jo Myung-rok.... Oh, I’m late. ”

Manager Lee Hye-jin, who tried to explain, glanced at the time and rushed to the front door.

“I will explain to you later. See you in the morning! ”

“Oh! Be careful! ”

“Yes!”

Namgoong -won, who was left alone, turned to watch the television again.

Ordinary Gang-gu (Secret Hideout for the Red Revolutionary Youth Group) in Pyongyang, North Korea.

A group of men were watching television in the basement of a five-story building with dim lighting. They were the leaders of the Red Revolutionary Youth Corps and state officials.

President Choo Un-hee’s public speech, which had begun 30 minutes earlier, was still being broadcast on television. When the president’s public speech ended a few minutes later, the executives who were watching were buzzled.

“What is this? The South Korean president seems to already know the whole story about the incident. ”

A skinny man who was watching next to Leader Man Gil-soo said it in a worried tone. In response, Leader Man Gil-soo said.

“Hey! Comrade Oh Kwang-tae! It’s time to move forward! It will be childish. If you stop now, are you swinging? ”

“But if you look at what the South Korean president says...”

“Shut up! Get out of here if you’re going to say such a weak thing! ”

Man Gil-soo’s eyes looked up and down at Oh Kwang-tae while criticizing him.

“No, it’s not.”

“Everyone, let’s gather in the conference room!”

Man Gil-soo headed to the conference room, leaving Oh Kwang-tae behind, and the rest of the executives followed him one by one.

After a while, officials from each state took their seats along the long table.

“Pyongyang’s revolution should have erupted by now. Now we must spread the revolutionary spark throughout all the states, including the North and South! Provide an update on your preparedness. ”

“I’ll be the first to report.”

Said Kim Dong-yoon, North Korea’s general manager, who was sitting to the left of Leader Man Gil-soo.

“We are currently waiting for Leader Man’s orders to be delivered to 16 cities in the North. Currently, approximately 30,000 Red Revolutionary Youth Members per city will be deployed to the front lines to carry out tasks with red flags in preparation for the new revolution. ”

Kim Dong-yoon, reported in a loud voice. In response, Leader Man Gil-soo, gestured for him to sit down with a happy expression.

“Where is the wall?”

As Leader Man Gil-soo asked, executives rose one by one and continued to report in detail on the state for which they were responsible.

When the last North Manchuria general executive finished his report, Leader Man Gil-soo stood up, grabbed the table with both hands, and rang the conference room loudly.

“Comrades! Because of the simultaneous fire of revolution in all parts of Korea, our world will arrive soon. For that reason, put your lives at risk while carrying out the Red Revolution’s tasks! ”

When Leader Man Gil-soo raised his right hand, the rest of the executives stood up and shouted slogans with their right hands raised.

“For North Korean people! For the Red Revolutionary Youth! ”

The executives who were shouting left the conference room one by one, leaving Leader Man Gil-soo behind, who was deep in thought with his chin on the desk.

Although the former leader of the National Labor Party, Kim Hyung-won, a financial supporter of the Red Revolution Youth Group, died and the existing plan was ruined, Leader Man Gil-soo, who was instructed by Woo Byung-hoo, was thinking of succeeding in this revolution and gaining an important position in the new revolutionary country.

The door to the conference room opened at that moment, and a man entered.

“Leader Man! What are you doing? ”

The man who spoke casually to Leader Man Gil-soo lacked a left arm and was of small stature.

“You’re here. Comrade Kim Jin, you did a good job. You made things easier for me. Hahaha! Come in and take a seat. ”

Man Gil-soo greeted Kim Jin, a one-armed man.

“There will be no more work! Take a shower and get some rest. You must have been exhausted from running away from the pursuit. ”

“Alright? Then I’d take a shower and get some rest. I have work to do tomorrow as well. ”

“OK, see you tomorrow. ”

Kim Jin was the one who shot Governor Ahn Dong-tae in the Peace Square.

Kim Jin, a sniper at the 11th Army Special Operations Battalion in North Korea prior to reunification, lost his left arm during training and lived in poverty as a disabled person. After the unification, he met his high school classmate Man Gil-soo by chance and joined the Red Revolutionary Youth Group.

And today, he shot Governor Ahn Dong-tae, the starting point of the bloodshed caused by armed suppression. Despite being one-armed, Kim Jin used his old military skills to shoot Ahn Dong-tae to the point of causing only minor injuries. As a result, the security guards who were guarding Governor Ahn Dong-tae mistook the protesters for gunmen and used firearms against them.

The armed crackdown began with firearms and spread throughout Pyongyang, putting President Choo Un-hee in a political sticky situation. This was the Red Revolutionary Youth Corps’s pre-planned intention. Massive protests were planned for tomorrow in all major cities in Korea outside of Pyongyang, causing internal instability.

Nam Joo National Intelligence Service (Investigation Office of the Bureau of Terrorism Investigation) in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

Goo Sang-sik, who was sitting in the interrogation room with a swollen face and bruises, waved his handcuffed hands as he looked around the interrogation room.

“He seemed to have regained his senses. ”

Assistant manager Ha Sang-man, who was looking through the reflective glass in the next room, reported it to someone on his internal phone.

-All right, I’ll be right there!

After a while, manager Lee Hye-jin and team leader Park Gi-oong entered the room next to the interrogation room.

“When did he wake up?”

Manager Lee Hye-jin, who was looking through the reflective glass, asked the question, to which assistant manager Ha Sang-man responded.

“Ah, he just woke up, and I was about to call you.”

“Really? But what’s the deal with his messed-up face? ”

Manager Lee Hye-jin said while looking at team leader Park Gi-oong. In response, team leader Park Gi-oong said with his head lifted.

“I must have gone too far because I remembered what happened before in Hunan.”

“Oh! That’s not what I meant. Don’t get me wrong. ”

“Yes, hahaha.”

“So, who is going to interrogate him? Should we go ahead with it? Or would you prefer someone from Team Leader Park’s side? ”

“If I interrogate him, I’ll be disturbed by the past again, so I don’t think I’ll be able to let him go.”

“Then we’ll do it in our department.”

“Yes, let’s do in that way.”

Goo Sang-sik looked up and down with his swollen eyes at manager Lee Hye-jin and assistant manager Huh Sang-man as they entered the interrogation room a little later and said looking at manager Lee Hye-jin.

“Oh! For what reason has this beautiful lady come here? ”

Hit!

Assistant manager Huh Sang-man punched Goo Sang-sik in the head with a punch of documents he was carrying while cursing him.

“How dare this son of a b*tch say such a thing? I’ll pull out all your teeth! ”

Goo Sang-sik fought back without hesitation, whether because he couldn’t understand the situation or because he was strong as a specially trained agent.

” You son of a b*tch! You want to die? ”

When Goo Sang-sik, enraged by the vicious response, tried to hit him back, manager Lee Hye-jin approached him and quietly said.

“Goo Sang-sik! Oh Ji-wan is in the next room; should we put you both in the same room for a day? ”

Hearing this, Goo Sang-sik’s pupils shook violently and quickly became as gentle as a sheep.

“Mr. Goo Sang-sik? Why don’t we relax and not waste our time? ”

Manager Lee Hye-jin, who thought he had fallen in the trap, took off her upper jacket and sat down. Then she rolled up her sleeves and start the investigation. In fact, manager Lee Hye-jin received important information from the Pyongyang branch before coming to the interrogation room.

Nam Gu-tae, who suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and head in the morning at a warehouse in Imwon-dong, was rushed to Pyongyang’s central medical center and was able to overcome the crisis and prolong his life.

Nam Gu-tae, who had fallen into a deep sleep, had a seizure an hour ago and poured out various words unconsciously, but they were difficult to understand. Consequently, the Pyongyang branch agents who were guarding Nam Gu-tae recorded each of his words and forwarded them to the headquarters’ anti-terrorism investigation bureau.

The result of the thorough analysis of the recordings received by the Anti-Terrorism Bureau was as follows: After the betrayal of Goo Sang-sik, he ran away with all the money he received. Thus, Oh Ji-wan was looking for him anxiously.

Upon receiving such valuable information, manager Lee Hye-jin spread the lie that Oh Ji-wan had been arrested. Fortunately, it worked and the traitor, Goo Sang-sik, believed it.

Goo Sang-sik, who had fallen for manager Lee Hye-jin deception, confessed everything he knew on the condition that he never run into Oh Ji-wan afterwards.

Even though she could not obtain any material information from the member of the 1st Operation Squadron because he was simply carrying out Jo Myung-rok’s orders, she learned about the bombing plan and Oh Ji-wan.

Manager Lee Hye-jin, who had returned to her office holding a cup of coffee after three hours of investigation with Goo Sang-sik, began writing the morning report. Then, after a few knocks on the laptop’s keyboard, Assistant manager Huh Sang-man opened the door to the office with an urgent voice.

“Manager! Oh Ji-wan’s location has been identified. ”

When manager Lee Hye-jin learned that the location of Oh Ji-wan, the only survivor who was fleeing, had been discovered, she jumped out of her seat. The coffee cup on the desk fell and spilled on manager Lee Hye-jin as a result of the sudden movement.

“Oh, my God!”

Manager Lee Hye-jin wiped away the coffee with a wet tissue. Because of the protective suit she wore inside, she didn’t get burned by the hot coffee.

“Are you all, right?”

Assistant manager Huh Sang-man deputy approached and asked.

“I’m okay. Where is Oh Ji-wan staying? ”

“He is in Kaesong. lava-dong in Kaesong. ”

“Kaesong? He came down from Pyongyang to Kaesong? ”

“Probably so.”

“All right, I’m going to leave after changing my protective suit, so tell all the guys in Section 3 to get ready.”

“Yes, sir. Then I’ll go out and get ready first. ”

Manager Lee Hye-jin opened the cabinet after assistant manager Huh Sang-man left to change her protective suit, which had become uncomfortable to wear because of the coffee.

“Oh, right. They took the extra clothes to exchange them for a new model... What should I do? ”

Manager Lee Hye-jin hesitated for a moment, then decided to take off her protective suit and only change her pants.

‘It’s not going to be a big deal....’

With this thought, Lee Hye-jin packed a KS5 laser pistol and various personal equipment and headed to the parking lot in the underground where the agents were waiting for her.
