God of Money

As soon as the caller called, he sighed and said.

"You can't do this."

You hear a relaxed laugh on the other side.

"It just shows that it's different. A person who protects what needs to be protected. It's definitely different, isn't it?"

Seongjin sighed at the joke of the dominant.

"Are you joking with me?"

The dominant word followed with laughter.

"All routes in Korea are blocked. It won't work if you try to contact someone else. If we have to get it, there's got to be a way to airlift it from overseas."

As the dominant voice continues to speak, only a dry saliva is heard across the phone. The hand of the quartz holding the phone trembles.

"Is this really how you come out?"

"Then how did you expect it to come out? I should have told you that day. There's only one thing in your future."

His words were resolute, cold, and cold.

"Prison?"

"Yes."

"Do you really think you can convince me this way? I think you can do it."

"Rather, I'd like to ask, Is there still a will to defend the oceans?"

A moment of silence passed over the phone to the dominant's question. I felt like I had a chance.

"I've already paid for more than my scholarship to the ocean. I don't understand why they stick together, enduring that humiliation."

The stone name was mocked at the words of the dominant.

"You've done quite a bit of research behind me on ocean scholarships."

"It's just a matter of asking Cheonkisu. There's no need to call it a background check."

I don't know how many sighs I've had. The name of the stone sighed again.

"The important thing is that you stopped them all. I have to tell Vice President Choi Tae-min exactly that."

"Actually, I think the secretary would know how to react if I told her the truth. Perhaps the chairman of Gunwon, who is lying in the Ocean Hospital, will be the second most obscure moment of his life."

He was directly involved in the work. The name of the stone swallowed only dry saliva and could not answer anything. How did he even know that? I was scared. The dominant voice slowly spoke.

"So think about it and decide. Again, your future depends on it."

After hanging up the phone, Seongnam stares at the void for a while. The past has passed like a master's lamp.

KRW 1 BTC 2,530,000.

He became a whale and moved the market price.

1 BTC ₩ 1,801,000.

The rat-rate was enough to steal people's minds.

Taking advantage of opportunities can make you rich.

As if tempting, the prices fell again.

1 BTC ₩ 2,781,000.

I lightly pierced the high point and flew like a rocket into space. Many ants entered the market with a dream of a thousand thousand dollars, including Choi Ki-chul, who runs hundreds of billions.

"Shit, we're back up."

Choi Ki-chul was being cautious during the recurring ascending and descending times.

"Shit, how come when I buy it, it falls off and sells it, it climbs up?"

Surprisingly, the quote moved in the opposite direction from its trading.

"If you don't want to be dragged, you have to hold it for days, and you can't keep holding something that's not worth it."

At the base of Choi Ki-chul's trading style, there was disbelief in the goods he bought. He believed that the value of digital cryptocurrencies, not stocks, would eventually converge on zero. That's why I couldn't take the bitcoin for more than two days.

The day I converged to 1,000 won.

It's because the memories of that time messed with my head. It was different from the time of the crumb.

"If I hold it in my hand and lose something, then I'm almost responsible for it."

If he suffered damages, Choi Tae Min would surely hold himself accountable. That was also why Choi Ki-chul was not holding Bitcoin.

"Damn, how long do I have to be dragged around like this?"

The price went up too much to attract the children of the hive to manipulate the prices. I wanted to get out of Tae Min's shoes somehow. But it was an unstoppable shadow until he put down everything he had.

"No way, I want to make it look like I'm in the hospital."

His brother, lying on an oxygen ventilator, dead or not alive. I was afraid I'd be like my brother.

"You have to build a fence, you have to make a decision, you have to pay for it, and you have to give it to me if you want a stake. And the money anyway."

I looked at Jung Jin-seop who was working.

"You just have to lock it up one more time and earn it."

When he finished his decision, Choi Ki-chul stood up.

As soon as I left the office and went to the parking lot, I met Choi Ki-chul. Head of Strategic Planning for the former Ocean Electronics.

There is now a human being near his car who has become a person of rainfall. It couldn't have come out nicely.

"What are you doing here?"

"You still don't talk. I'm not an oceanographer anymore."

Choi Ki-chul snorted.

"Ha, so what. What should I do?"

"I heard you've been trading at the Exchange lately."

"That's what we're going to talk about."

"I don't think there's any reason not to. We both have a common denominator for wanting to get out of Tae Min's shadow."

Choi Ki-chul's face suddenly changed. I felt like I was caught in something that no one could see.

"· · · · · ·."

"He's a pretty decent guy on the river. Of course, you've been there."

The Celestial Archangel spoke quickly.

"He's smart, he's capable, he knows how to take care of himself. Unlike anyone else."

As the heavenly host continued speaking, Choi Ki-chul swallowed dry saliva.

"You need sunlight to get rid of the shade. It's foolish to jump naked when you break a thousand wheels."

"Is the name of the stone there, too?"

The Celestial Archangel burst into laughter and said.

"I'm afraid not. You know, the one you use, the phone, the one you're seeing. It's all being reported to the River Leader. And he's the one who decides by putting that information together."

The celestial figure paused for a moment, lighting his cigarette on fire.

"He told me to go see him now."

"So what do you want me to do?"

"If you don't want to be like your brother, I think you know better than anyone which choice to make. He just asked me to tell you this."

The word "Choi Ki-tae" resonated with Choi Ki-chul's neck.

* * *

Choi Ki-chul, who met with Tae Min, immediately got to the point.

"I'm leaving 10 billion behind, putting it all down, and getting out. I want you to stop letting me go."

"Hehe, when have I been holding you back?"

"I'm not in the mood for games."

"I'm not kidding, either."

"· · · · · ·."

"You're an oceanographer no matter what anyone says. Those tags stick together forever."

"I will survive on my own strength. I want to get off the ocean chain with all the stocks I have, all the money I borrowed as collateral."

Again, Choi Tae Min just burst into laughter.

"Don't you think you know too much?"

Choi said with a grim smile.

"There are two ways you can leave the ocean. You can go deaf or your brain can blow up. What do you think?"

Choi Ki-chul bit his lips tightly and didn't say anything. And I realized that I can't escape his shadow as long as Tae Min lives.

Just two days before South Korea's 19th general election, April 11, 2012.

The media questioned Kim Jong-hee, who is currently the president's deputy and the party representative of the free party.

Materials with more than just rumor levels attached were rapidly spreading through the media, and one of the Democratic Advocates grew from an official press conference in the National Assembly's theoretical cortex to an ever-growing typhoon that cuts through the direction of the general election.

And if you look at the data that I have here, I can see that the remarks that President Lee had made before the election were clearly false. You can also see how poorly the special inspection at the time was undertaken.

It also details all the illegal activities of Kim Jong-hee, the current ruling council representative. How can we say that we are leaders of one country and leaders of one party?

Sung-hyun, who was watching TV, pressed the power button on the remote control.

"Phew · · · · · · · ·."

I took a deep breath and swept down my face with both hands. The data was clearly stored in a building that he owned. Suddenly, the existing documents disappeared and were replaced with empty boxes.

If so, it means the work of an insider.

However, no matter how much I brushed off the sides, I couldn't find the culprit.

"Then why aren't they answering?"

Lee Hyeong-hyeon neurologically pressed the call button.

Attorney Park Chang-sun Hwa.

Attorney Cho Nam-gi from Chosun, Korea

Attorney Ahn Su-hyun from the continent.

I've contacted the so-called well-known lawyers, but no one's been contacted. If I was wrong, I would have to have a lawyer or a team of new lawyers who had just come to the market. I asked the Korean Congressman who was with Lee Sung-hyun.

"How does the Party respond?"

With the help of Seong-hyun, the congressman who took a proportional seat answered with a stammer.

"It is said to be driven by political conspiracies. But if the party loses the general election like this,"

"Let's not let that happen."

"Things are too bad for that. It turns out that there's less than 40 seats of unofficial support than before."

"This is going to affect the presidency. If it even goes that way."

The eyes of the superintendent who guessed what the word would be in the back of Lee Sung-hyun shook. I am never clean. That meant that it might be a scapegoat.

"Well, that's far enough."

"Let's not let that happen."

However, Lee Sung-hyun could not hide the tension while swallowing dry saliva.

"Damn, how did we get this far?"

"· · · · · ·."

"How much money have you asked for in the ocean?"

"They've sent 500 million people, saying they're in bad shape."

"Now I'm a paper tiger."

"He said he would give me 500 million more if I gave him information about the rainfall."

"There is no new information anyway. If you decorate it and present it, you might get a headache."

"So what do we do?"

"Let's meet first. We're gonna end up without a lawyer."

"Who?"

"Someone who is holding on to top lawyers in the country right now."
