Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 57 The Day of Counter (1)

The event that was prepared in the United States for Seong-jun and the members of the Road Guild who were invited as members of the National Empire has ended.

There was no reason to stay in the United States anymore. It seemed like it would take too long to wait for an alliance council to form to stop the empire and its alliance, which was declared by the United States as a third generation.

Seong-jun returned to Korea on a charter provided by his father and guild members in the United States.

Guild members returned to South Korea to form a party of attack team size and rush to attack a Class A dungeon.

Seohyuk returned to the company and began to receive treatment again.

“I don't think so. ”

Seong-jun who was sitting on the terrace got up from the chair with a stuffy face. As he approaches, Lischevald opens his mouth.

- State, what's your emergency?

“I don't think he's feeling well. I should call the professor, ask him some questions, and rush him to the New Drug Development Lab. ”

Seong-jun urged me to move quickly, answering Lischevalt's question. I have received few reports from the National Institute for New Drug Development while in the United States.

I've been contacted several times by the National Drug and Development Institute, but I haven't been able to get a call because the Vice President of Rudel's assassination attempt, the attack on Senator Gast's mansion, and the deaths of New York Raid and Anfels.

“Please call Professor Lee Jin-ho. ”

Seong-jun told the employer. Seongjun's mansion had medical facilities for Suhyuk, which was similar to the best university hospital in Korea.

“Professor Lee Jinho has arrived. ”

After sitting in the reception room and waiting for about 30 minutes, Hanseok opened the door and informed me that Jinho had arrived.

Han Seok has been living a life unlike his personal assistant ever since he was subdued by Seong-jun and given a "rune of loyalty."

“Tell them to come into the reception room. ”

“I'll pass it on.”

Seong-jun said. Han-suk nodded and left the reception room. Shortly after, the door opens with a light knock and a man in glasses walks in.

The man who appeared to be in his early 50s was Professor Lee Jin-ho, an authority on hematological malignancies.

He was a professor at a famous medical school in the United States, but Seong-jun invested a lot of money and brought him to Korea.

In addition to Suhyuk's dedicated head of medical team, he was brought to Korea to advise the National Institute for New Drug Development.

“Guild Master? I hear you've been looking for me. ”

Jinho politely asked, looking at Seongjun. I had no choice because Seong-jun was his employer. He wasn't just an employer. He was an employer who paid a lot of money.

“Ah…! Welcome, Professor Lee Jin-ho. I just wanted to reach out and ask you a few questions. I think it's better to meet in person and talk than to talk on the phone. ”

“Of course I should come, then. ”

Seong-jun, an SS class hunter, was no longer a place to look for someone. Since he became a Class S Hunter, it has become a place where he can call someone.

“Is this about your father's health? ”

Jinho was not a psychologist, but he could easily read the causes of anxiety full of Seong-jun's face.

“You know very well. How are you feeling these days? ”

“The blood cell count is consistent. It's stable. ”

“Is that good? ”

Jinho briefly explained but did not understand Seong-jun who had no medical knowledge at all. A lot of people were mistaken, but Hiller had nothing to do with medicine.

“It's not that bad. at least it doesn't get worse. But that's not a good thing. It just hasn't gotten any worse. ”

It was cold but true. Jinho was a doctor. Doctors were not the only ones who spoke well to their patients.

It was a job that required a calm and objective attitude. At least that's what Jinho thought.

“Kang Hyuk's condition is a little bit like a walk on a rope. It can get better, but it doesn't seem strange if it gets worse right away. ”

Jinho said with a calm expression. It was this much because Seong-jun did not spare all medical support for Su-hyuk.

If he had been treated normally, he would have remained exacerbated.

“We need to develop a cure quickly. ”

Seong-jun said, we should hurry and visit the National Drug and Development Institute.

“We don't have a cure right now, so we're barely preventing it from getting worse. The shoulders of the National Drug and Development Institute will be heavy. ”

“How far do you think development research has gone? ”

“It's hard to keep track of the progress of the study, even though I'm the advisor. ”

“But how much can you tell? ”

When Seong-jun insisted, Jinho sighed for a short time and opened her mouth.

“Actually, I don't think the study progress is very high. While the lead researcher is working hard, he seems to be rarely making progress. ”

“Is that so…? ”

“This is my personal opinion. I don't know about the lab. ”

Jinho shakes his hand and says: He left him to be tortured, but he was not a member of the Western Pharmaceutical Development Institute, so he did not know the details. Seong-jun looked at him and opened his mouth with a smile.

“Helpful enough. ”

After a small conversation for about 10 minutes after Jinho left, Seong-jun called Jung-cheol with a serious face.

“You wanted to see me?”

Just moments ago, Jeongchul was in the mansion because it was time to target the dungeon and take a break. Seong-jun came to the reception room in fear. He was Seong-jun's chief of staff and informant.

“I don't think the lab is working properly. ”

Seong-jun said in a cold voice that is filled with cold energy. He's been talking to Jeongchul for some time now.

“Let's check it out. ”

“I think that would be good. ”

“It's not that hard. Three days is enough. ”

Jeongchul told me 3 days, but the next day I came to Seong-jun.

“Have you looked into it? ”

Seong-jun asked because it was faster than expected. Jeongchul smiled.

“Of course. Not infiltrating military agencies... … Security was weak, so it wasn't difficult. ”

Seong-jun was amazed at the words of Jeong Cheol. It was not easy to infiltrate a military agency, as he said, but it would not be easy to find hidden ledgers.

But not only did he come from an intelligence agency, but it was difficult for him to know many of the outstanding sources in his business.

“Let's go to the locker room. ”

Seong-jun said he used the ‘locker room' inside the mansion to tell important stories.

Jung Chul opened his mouth with a few documents out of his arms, terrified to enter the locker room.

“I'll explain briefly. My principal was embezzling. ”

“I want to kill you. ”

Seong-jun confessed his honest feelings. I trusted Hansoo and got angry because this happened.

Before leaving him with the Principal of the Research Institute, Seong-jun did a simple research, but nothing was strange. It seemed to shake my heart as excessive funding came into my hands.

“How much is the embezzlement? ”

“You've betrayed nearly half of them. ”

“Should I really... kill you...? ”

Half the grants were embezzlement of hundreds of billions of units. At the same time, Seong-jun thought that Hansoo's liver was really big.

“The guild leader doesn't need to get his hands dirty. I'll get the kids to do it quietly. ”

Seong-jun nodded at Jung-chul's words. Seong-jun was the most famous hunter in Korea, and his name was spreading in the United States.

Despite his embezzlement, murders other than ‘political defence’ could damage his reputation. It was best to handle this discreetly through the spring.

“Then who should we sit next to? ”

“Wouldn't Juju be a good lead researcher? I think he was the most diligent researcher in the world. And most of all, I didn't have any part in the embezzlement. ”

Jeong Cheol commented. Seong-jun nodded.

“Still, I think we should keep a lookout. ”

Seong-jun Han did not suspect. The result was an embezzlement. So Seong-jun thought that even if he became the principal of the research institute, he needed supervision.

“Zheng will send three reliable supervisors when the lead researcher is in charge of the complaint. Three of them can monitor each other, so it won't be easy to mislead them." ”

“Sounds like a good way to go. ”

“More than three people are mainly used by information agencies. That's for sure.”

Jeongchul said in a confident voice. Seong-jun nodded. The way he said it seemed reliable.

“Can we recover all the money? ”

Seong-jun asked. It wasn't a waste of money, but he didn't want to lose money. Jeongchul sweeps through the data one more time and opens his mouth.

“I've checked again now, and I've been embezzled. I've spent very little money. I can retrieve them all. ”

“I'm glad.”

“He was still scared, but I think he was preparing to flee the country. If I was a little later, I would have bothered. ”

Jeongchul said, fleeing overseas will bring a lot of hassle.

“The conclusion is mine. Keep it quiet.”

Seong-jun said with a cold look in his eyes. There was no need for mercy for those who embezzled funds.

* * *

Jeongchul ordered a number of abductions from a Class B hunter with hidden abilities. Hansoo lived in a vulnerable area, and he didn't have to move a class A hunter because he didn't hire a private security guard.

The kidnapped hunter submerged his hand in the sleeping gas used by the intelligence agency and brought it to the front of the train.

The weight of an adult man was not at all burdensome for a Class B Hunter.

Jung Chul glanced at the cold gaze while still sleeping due to the influence of sleeping gas.

“Wake him up.”

Following the train's instructions, Hunter pulls out a dagger and stabs a handful of thighs.

“Shhh! Shhh! ”

I opened my eyes to the terrible pain I had never felt in my life.

“Ugh. What is this place...? ”

Hansoo was not properly aware of the surrounding situation due to the pain rising from his thighs. Seeing him like that, Jeongchul lets out a sigh and opens his mouth.

“Don't you know why you're here? ”

“I don't know. Please save me."

“Explain briefly? You're embezzling.”

“W-when did I...? ”

“Cut off your left hand. ”

As Hansoo shakes his head madly and denies it, Jung Chul instructs Hunter. He cut off a handful of his left wrists without hesitation.

Since it was not a user to come, the cut section was not clean, and the pain was severe, so Hansoo screamed like a madman.

“Scream and no one will help you. I ask you again. You betrayed me, didn't you?”

“Do it, do it! I betrayed you! So please help me! ”

“I'm glad you know what you've done wrong. But what if I'm sorry? ”

As Jeongchul raises his hand, his hand is gripped by a spear.

“I've never been instructed to let you live. ”
