Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary

Episode 190. Dumb (2)

A few days later, Seoul Central Hotel VIP Lounge.

Kang-soo took Simon and Jack into a cafe there.

Some of the people drinking tea and drinks in the vicinity recognize such precipitation and whisper.

“Isn’t that the CEO of Camo, Han Kang-soo?”

“Ah— that Han Kang-soo, who was the manager at JIN Entertainment, manager Yoo So-hyun, and even took charge of stunts in ＜My Neighbor Diablo＞, and turned out to be the third generation of a conglomerate?”

“and… With that face and body, how can you not be a celebrity?”

“Are you the bodyguard behind you? secretary? Whoa— why is that guy so tall? Are you a bear?”

Kang-soo quit his job as a manager and showed his face to the outside world for the first time. As a result, people couldn’t help but be amazed to see Kangsu, who appeared on the news.

Kang-soo, who passed by the people, went deep into the cafe and sat down. After that, Simon and Jack stood guard.

A little while later, Jennifer Han entered the cafe with Zhi Hu Chen and Travis Floyd and immediately approached Kang Su.

Kang-soo also saw it and woke up.

“Sit down.”

“… … .”

There was no greeting at all. They sat facing each other and remained silent for a while.

In the meantime, Jennifer Han had a lot of thoughts.

The name Han Kang-soo came out of the mouth of influential presidential candidate Cheon Joo-hee. Yoon Jae-seung, who told him to be careful of the Han River.

It was created to raise a lot of questions.

Then Kang-soo spoke in English first.

“Now that we’ve met face to face, you can tell us.”

“Iknow, right. It was very difficult to face CEO Han Kang-soo.”

“Are you being sarcastic?”

The conversation continued in English.

Kang Soo also had complicated thoughts. It was not easy to calmly look at the same face as her mother’s with a nonchalant heart.

“no. It was just an impression.”

“… If you’re just going to keep talking about meaningless things, let’s stop here.”

With those words, Kangsu tried to get up.

Jennifer Han frowned at this.

“no. I have a long editorial.”

Kang-soo raised his hand to continue her words.

“Recently, I have been keeping an eye on CEO Han Kang-soo’s progress. It was amazing.”

“… I was just lucky.”

“If that’s really lucky, shouldn’t you have won the Otto lottery a long time ago? Ah—if the money the CEO is making right now, lottery winnings would be meaningless.”

At her honey-coated praise, Kang-soo had a calm expression.

When there was no response, Jennifer Han moved on to the next story.

“I want to invest in Camo Investment.”

“If it’s investment management, I’ll introduce you to the staff.”

“Not individual customers. I am talking about investment at the corporate level.”

At that explanation, Kang-soo hardened his calm expression slightly.

“The matter was separately announced at the corporate level. I said I would never— never— take it anywhere.”

Camo Investment was now operating as a fledgling, privately held company.

Kangsu had no intention of listing the company later. This is because even if it goes public, only a fight for shares will arise later and only the foundation of the company can be shaken.

“500 million US dollars.”

It was an enormous amount of money, over 600 billion in Korean currency.

At that suggestion, Kang-soo frowned.

“I think you should start a company instead of investing.”

“Companies are run by money, but people run them. And I think Camo Investment is a company that deserves it.”

“I don’t want to be judged by you on Camo, but… … .”

Jennifer Han gave off a subtle atmosphere to Kang-soo’s uninspiring attitude. After staring at Kangsu calmly for a while, he spoke in a whispering voice.

“Let me know if you need anything. If it’s money, I can give you 50% of the amount I just told you with sincerity, even washing it.”

“CEO Jennifer Han seems to see me as someone who only cares about money.”

“I was just giving an example. tell me What do you want?”

Kangsu did not show any change in his reaction after hearing her suggestion. He continued to look at Jennifer Han with a calm expression, then slowly opened his mouth.

“What do I want, what will I do… Why would you want to know that?”

“Because I want to know. And I am confident that I can listen.”

It was a very confident atmosphere.

Of course, Gangsu was also expecting who was behind her. Of course, he would do whatever he wanted to achieve.

“You think I can’t achieve that on my own?”

“no. Instead, the difference will be in speed.”

Kang-soo looked at her and said.

“I will ask you one thing.”

“I see.”

“Do you know the name Woo Seon-jun?”

In an instant, Jennifer Han’s expression hardens like cement under the hot sun.

It was because she could not have known the person Min Hwan-shik, who was an agent of Savnak, was working with.

However, it was a relationship that could not be expressed as knowing.

“… Who is that?”

“This is my cousin. And I was also a customer of the Korea branch of Infectus Investment, where CEO Jennifer Han was the head of the branch.”

It wasn’t just a customer.

Jennifer Han’s eyebrows dug deeper and deeper.

“I guess you recognized me.”

“Because you have been trying to meet me several times. So I was curious about what kind of person he was, so I found out.”

“Um—you can’t know each and every customer. Employees do the work. The same goes for CEO Han Kang-soo.”

It was an obvious lie.

Gangsu was well aware of that fact, but he did not force himself to dig.

“you’re right. Just in case.”

“You seem to have a close relationship with your cousin.”

“no. Didn’t you watch the news at the time? To be honest, I thought CEO Jennifer Han would have known about that kind of work.”

For a moment, a look of embarrassment appeared on Jennifer Han’s face. I tried to avoid answering and went too far.

“I guess I didn’t pay attention because I was busy.”

“You can.”

Silence came again with Kangsu’s answer.

When Jennifer Han couldn’t get the answer she wanted, she thought a lot.

In the meantime, Kang-soo spoke first.

“… I’ve answered what I was curious about, and excuse me if I have nothing more to say.”

I really wanted to get up this time.

Then Jennifer Han called in an urgent voice.

“CEO Han Kang-soo.”

“Do you have anything else to say?”

“… no.”

With her answer, Kang-su took Simon and Jack and left the cafe in the VIP lounge.

Left alone, Jennifer Han checked her phone. There was a missed call from Horyuji Kamikura.

Jennifer Hahn called the number again as she left the hotel and got into her car.

Meanwhile, as the car started, Horyuuji Kamikura’s voice was heard over the receiver.

[You must have been very busy.]

“I just met CEO Han Kang-soo.”

[I see… . How was it?]

Jennifer Han said after organizing her thoughts.

“It seems clear that he is an unusual person. However, it seems difficult to figure out what you want.”

[Was the offer for wealth useless? or not… authority? both?]

“It all seemed disinterested.”

So far, Jennifer Han has met several people. And ten for ten, and a hundred for a hundred. Everyone had a desire to achieve.

However, Kangsu had a different atmosphere from them.

[Hmm—could such a person exist? Isn’t that what you couldn’t find?]

“… I don’t know that far. I haven’t been able to make an accurate decision yet.”

[If you’re looking at it that way, it means it’s not normal.]

Questions and answers only grew more suspicious.

Then, Jennifer Han brought up the story she was thinking about.

“Do you remember Tomimasa Okunaka?”

It was the real name of Min Hwan-shik, who was Woo Joon-joon’s secretary.

[…] Isn’t that the guy who was dispatched to the Infectus Korean line in the past? It’s been a while since I heard it.]

“Originally, I was an agent who belonged to Savnak and was assigned under the elder. And in Korea, I was in charge of Jinyeon Group’s Woo Joon-jun.”

For a moment, Kamikura Horyuji’s answer did not come right away. He seemed to think for a moment, and then the question was slowly thrown.

[Jinyeon Group? If so—Are you saying CEO Han Kang-soo is related to the project managed by Infectus?]

To that question, Jennifer Han looked around and spoke as quietly as possible.

“At the time, there was a project that Min Hwan-shik undertook using the Joseon-jok on Jeju Island at the instigation of Woo Joon-jun. At that time, it was CEO Han Kang-soo who solved the Korean-Chinese problem.”

[…] It’s not related, it’s that you interfered.]

“From what I checked, CEO Han Kang-soo said that in addition to his managerial duties, he also served as a dispatcher to Blue Guard. It was analyzed that there was nothing particularly noticeable in the process of the plan going awry at that time.”

Jennifer Hanhan did her own analysis. The eldest son Jin Gyu-yeon and his family were in real danger. In addition, Han Kang-soo was stabbed and injured at that time.

There were many unnecessary gaps to say that I knew the plan in advance.

[Did you know from the beginning?]

“It is not. While organizing the information on the Jinyeon Group, Min Hwan-sik was seduced by Woo Joon-jun and sent Savnak apprentices to CEO Han Kang-soo.”

[…] How was it?]

“It was a failure. Rather, he was overpowered by CEO Han Kang-soo, caught by the police, and arrested. Ah—at that time, the guys used their hands from the prosecution to get them out without any problems, and then they handled them neatly.”

Horyuji Kamikura’s quiet voice flowed over the receiver.

[Sorry. If I had been alive, I could have heard something more.]

“sorry. At the time, I couldn’t help it because I focused on finishing things quickly without being dismissed as important.”

[Hmm—]

Interest was more than expected. It wasn’t even that Jennifer Han heard the good reason from Kamikura Horyuji.

It was only an instruction to embrace Han Kang-soo under any conditions.

Jennifer Hahn continued to explain and brought up questions that kept popping up.

“How are you going to capture him and use him? Through candidate Cheon Joo-hee, Yoon Jae-seung told me to be careful of him.”

[hmm… . Aren’t they talented?]

“I wonder if hundreds of billions of dollars is too much just for the reason of talent.”

[hehehe—who said they would give it for real?]

It was just floating.

However, Jennifer Han felt sincerity in Kamikura Horyuji’s instructions.

“What shall we do next?”

[For now, focus on candidate Chun Ju-hee. I want you to pay attention to what we will load there.]

“All right.”

The call ended just like that.

Jennifer Han picked up the tablet that was lying next to her and searched for Cheon Ju-hee.

[Candidate Cheon Ju-hee, who is spurring election publicity for a just Republic of Korea.]

[Candidate Cheon Ju-hee’s support for single mothers and fathers and anonymous donations to orphanages revealed!]

[Presidential runner! Candidate Joo-Hee Chun, approval rating increased by 5% to 62%.]

[No Necessary Evil! Reexamine the trial of Candidate Joo-Hee Chun as a judge!]

[My husband is an executive at a large company who has risen from an ordinary employee, and my son in middle school is a model student and president of the student council. Candidate Ju-Hee Cheon, who is more ordinary than anyone else, but has a special and harmonious family.]

The article was plastered with all sorts of good stories.

A smile formed on Jennifer Han’s lips as she read through it. It was because it seemed certain that Cheon Joo-hee would be elected president at this rate.
