“I don't want you to do that. ”

Kettler stood up and said in a quiet voice.

“I think it's just a greeting. We're comfortable with this. ”

He nods, knowing Kettler won't listen no matter how hard he tries.

It didn't matter whether I did it or not. Then we can do as we please.

“Suit yourself. ”

“What exactly do we do here? I heard he's got a guy coming in. ”

“I will. ”

Kettler pauses to think of the answer. Then I went to the wall and knocked.

“This building... It doesn't look as sturdy as I thought." ”

Kettler makes a gesture as if Jared were asking what that means.

“No way. I've spent a lot of time on durability in remodeling. If you're hit by a missile or something, it's not going to collapse. ”

“So we can fight here? ”

“Yes?”

Jared opens his eyes and looks at Kettler. Then, I turned my gaze and looked at the stone as if asking for help.

But to be honest, Jared didn't know who the stone was. Jared knew only Yang Yang Wook.

No one else near Yang Dong-wook knew.

Therefore, I had never met Hyun-Sook, and even Yang Se-hee, Yang Dong-wook's sister.

So Jared didn't think Hyun-seok would help him.

“Of course, when you fight, you fight somewhere else. ”

“Isn't that right? But do you think the enemy will see that coming? I don't think there's anything I can do if I just barge in here and start using my powers. ”

“Maybe you don't have to worry about that. ”

“You don't need to worry? This building looks too weak for that. ”

Kettler said so and touched the wall.

Boo-hoo!

Gold was stolen from the wall.

“Look at this. This is bad. A few good hits here and the building will collapse. ”

Jared's complexion pales as he watches it. He knows how hard that wall is.

How can you make a wall like that crack just by touching it like that?

‘If we're going to fix that, we're going to have a problem. ’

If it's just a crack on the outside, it'll be better, but if it's just a cut on the inside, it's more complicated to repair because you need to reinforce the inside again.

“This building is just a place where ordinary people work, so no one will come to visit. Isn't that right?”

Hyun-seok looks at Jared.

Jared nods with a shivering expression.

“For now. It's going to be used as the headquarters for future industries. But……. ”

Jared hesitates for a moment.

“Previously, the Lexton Energy Headquarters was attacked. In fact, we can't be careless. Of course… we have our own security and security measures……. ”

Jared talks that far and looks at Kettler.

No matter how powerful a man like that protects him, he can never be more secure.

“Kettler will take the black market. ”

“Black market……. ”

Jared shut up about the black market. In fact, he still doesn't know where the black market is being created.

I just knew it was being made by the company.

Everything about the black market was covered in veils. Not yet.

“But… there's a rumor that the black market is being built in our company building…… is that true? ”

“The building next door, to be exact. ”

Hyun-seok answered without hesitation.

It wasn't exactly a secret. Going forward, this rumor was going to spread among the players.

You have to know where something is before people come and activate the black market.

“The building next door.... ”

Jared tilts his head. The building next door was used by an investment firm.

It was not a building used by any investment firm. The size of the building was considerable, and it was shared by dozens of companies.

You put a black market on a building like that. Is that even possible?

If we're going to do that, we're going to have to get a lot of investment companies out of that building.

It won't be simple enough.

It is a problem even after exporting it like that. In order to create a black market, it is necessary to change the internal structure.

It looks like rumors are starting to spread, but when we're working on the black market, Rexton Energy and other organizations are going to be really embarrassed if we open a duck.

Hyun-seok said as if he knew what Jared was worried about.

“We already own the building, so don't worry. ”

“Do you intend to expel all the people who worked there? ”

“Why are you sending them away? Why should we throw away such a great shield? ”

“Yes? So... you'll use them when the enemy invades?" ”

The stone shakes its head.

“It means the enemy won't just barge in. ”

“But……. ”

“The enemy will only enter the black market. That's the ocean we want. ”

“If you put a black market in that building, in the end.... ”

Eventually, that building itself will turn into a battlefield, and everyone in that building will be in danger.

“I'll see you later. Perhaps...... you will be convinced enough. ”

Jared considers himself unconvincing, but for now.

It's not too late to ask again after seeing what the black market actually looks like.

Of course, you'll have a better chance of quitting the company by then.

Kettler, who was listening quietly to the conversation between Hyundai and Jared, asked.

“If we have to protect the black market, wouldn't it be better to stay there than here? ”

“I'll get you there right away, so don't worry. ”

“You can go straight? ”

In the words of Hyundai, not only Kettler but Jared did not accept.

There was no direct route from here to the next building.

Moreover, the passageway to the basement is completely blocked.

The only way out of here is through the door on the wall.

If you did, you could go between the third and fourth floors of this building and go down to the first floor of the basement via a dedicated elevator at the end.

It was an extremely trapped structure. It also meant that there was little concern that this place would be discovered, but it could interfere with mobility.

“I'm here to confirm that. ”

Kettler tilts his head at the words of the stone. What the hell does that mean?

Hyun-seok looked around. And then I went all over the place. It was like I was doing a household tour.

I was wandering around and stood in front of a big sticky page.

“This is it.”

The stone opens the door to check the inside. It was just an ordinary chapter. But it felt a little shallow to store something.

But I nodded my head when I saw it.

“You did as you were told. ”

The stone closes the door again and turns around.

“What are you doing? ”

“You'll find out later. ”

That's it. Everyone stares at the dazed rock. Jared was completely out of his mind.

“Is this the end? ”

Hyun-seok nods and looks at Kettler.

“All you have to do is follow me. ”

“Where are you going? ”

“Black market.”

Jared glows at the words of the stone. If it was the black market, I wanted to see it myself.

I was so curious about where and how I made it.

In fact, I heard clearly that I was creating a black market, but I didn't see any movement or see anything.

Jared was the Deputy Director of New York's Future Industries Division.

Well, it's been a while since the Arphor Knights were hesitant.

It will soon become a pioneer of the future industry and will move actively.

But I still didn't know so much about the future industry, so sometimes I felt frustrated.

So I wanted to see the black market this time.

Jared glanced at the stride with a dazzling look on his face.

Of course, Hyun-seok couldn't help but notice Jared's gaze.

“If you want to follow me, follow me. ”

Jared wants to cheer himself up, but he doesn't want to react to the opponent's talk like that.

So, he forcefully nodded and replied, managing his face.

“Yes, I'll go with you. ”

It's like it's not a big deal.

* * *

“Is this it?”

Jared looks embarrassed for a moment. Then I saw Hyun-seok nod his head and looked back at the door in front of me.

He could have bet his entire fortune that this couldn't be the black market.

Of course. I stood in the middle of a small room with a door, and it was the entrance to the black market, so who could believe it?

“No matter how much I look at it... it looks like there's just a door..." ”

“It's not just the door, it's the wall next to it. ”

Jared nods. There were definitely walls about two bricks wide on the door.

But this was a wall attached to the side of the door like a decoration.

I couldn't call it a real wall.

“I think if I open this door, all I'll find is a wall... Isn't that right? ”

It was still attached to the wall, so if you open the door, the red bricks will appear.

So, this door is a wall that is carefully stacked to create a wall of the appropriate size, and then gently dig into the middle of it and hang the door.

So even though the door was hanging, the thickness was very constant.

So it was clear that the work that came out of the work was quite elaborate.

“This is more of a... piece than a door, isn't it? ”

Jared says so and looks around.

The office was located on the third floor of the building. Being the owner of a building and having an office this size, that makes sense.

‘If only I made it more... plausible...' ’

Jared regrets it. This place must be one of the tricky nodes. This place is the black market, so we made a device that filters out the first clumsy things.

Do you think we should be able to extract this kind of information in order to gain access to our black market?

As Jared wets his imagination, Hyun-seok looks at Kettler and says,

“See? Now you know what I'm talking about. ”

“I understand enough. ”

Kettler nods and turns his head to stare at the ledge, wondering if something's come up.

“It can't be... It can't be... in that closet...! ”

Hyun-seok laughed. Kettler stares at the stone smiles and shakes his head in horror.

“Really... I can't stand it. Yeah, well, if that's the case, we can do it quickly under any circumstance. ”

“So, shall we go in? What about you? Are you coming in with me? ”

“Yes? Where? There?”

A stone stares at Jared's silly face and opens the door. Like Jared said, there was a wall of red bricks.

Jared looks disappointed again, just in case.

The stone grins and squeezes Jared's arm.

“Huff! What are you doing?! ”

Jared yells in surprise. Hyun-seok ignores Jared's words and throws him forcefully toward the wall revealed through the open door.

“Aah!”

Jared's screams fill the room.

“You're a noisy one. ”

Kettler mutters like that and walks toward the red wall where Jared has just disappeared.

Kettler soon disappeared into the wall.

And finally, the stone enters the wall.
