5. Can you give me one phone number? (4)

RRRRR.

It was a very different experience to know that one phone call can make people nervous like this.

However, Yoon Young-min wanted to stop that experience.

Who would like this feeling of being chewed up by the heart?

“Bar, pick up. ”

“Do I need to take it? ”

“So you're not going to answer? You should get it!”

“Mmmm... ”

The people's gaze was tense.

The secretary who was standing by the phone slowly reached out and grabbed the handset.

It would have been easier to answer the phone, but it seemed that a heavy handset still adhering to the analog method would have doubled his heart.

Cough.

The secretary, who held the handset tightly, lifted it up and put it to his ear.

“Yes, this is the secretarial office! ”

Gulp.

The sound of someone's saliva echoes like thunder.

I filled the office with extreme tension.

Everyone's gaze was on his secretary's mouth, and he gathered his ears to make sure he didn't miss a sound.

“Yes?”

Your secretary seems to hear something serious, and lets out a deep sigh.

“… Yes. ”

The secretary takes off her handset and hangs up the phone.

“What, what? ”

The secretary replied with a slightly ugly face.

“I'm the Foreign Minister. Don't call me because I'm sick today. ”

“What an idiot! ”

Yoon Young-min forgot her body and said something insulting.

“Sir, calm down. ”

“Mmm-hmm!”

The secretary pinched his thighs to endure the laughter as he watched the situation.

It's a black comedy.

People who are the most important factors in Korea have gathered in one place, and now it's like a kid over the age of twenty is getting too excited to call.

What if it's not comedy?

‘And I'm part of that comedy. ’

It was a very sad story.

“What the hell is this... …. ”

“Of course. ”

“Hmmm……. ”

I hear voids everywhere I think I've seen the trend. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

“Then why are you calling me? ”

“Who knows? ”

“Is there no one you can call? Reasonably important is paramount, but does anyone want to know what he's thinking or what he's doing? ”

“… but there is one person. ”

“One? Are you saying that you can only leave one person with all of those important people? ”

At the same time, the minister of defense and the director of KSF glared at him, according to the minister of finance.

“Why, why? ”

“You make it sound so easy. ”

“Yes?”

“Do you know who Lee Hyuk is? ”

“ ……. ”

“Do you have any idea how hard it was for us to plant an informant around him? Is there only one? Be lucky to have at least one. ”

“No, I didn't say anything wrong.... ”

The Secretary of Defense snorts.

“Hey, Minister. ”

“Go ahead. ”

“Do you think there's only one country in my country that is touching Lee Hyuk right now? ”

“I don't think so. ”

“Do you know how many military satellites are following Lee Ji-hyuk? The United States has assigned only five satellites for Lee Hyuk. ”

Five?

Five satellites following one person?

What does that even mean?

Russian countrymen were not treated as such in the first place.

“Do you know how many foreign agents have tried to infiltrate Lee Hyuk so far? What do you think happened to them now? ”

“Is Lee Hyuk that scary? ”

“Ha! I won't tell you if you go around Lee Hyuk. Every agent in the country was wiped out by a capable person, Dogayun, who was protecting Lee Hyuk. They don't even know how they got hurt. ”

“ ……. ”

“He is such a person that relationships are also extremely narrow that he doesn't interact without people he knows. It's a miracle I made contact in a situation like this. One complaint?”

The minister of interior kept his mouth shut.

For this reason, I had to keep my mouth shut about situations I didn't know, but I was embarrassed when I opened my mouth.

At times like this, the quickest way is to turn the horse.

“So who's the one? ”

“You've heard of it, Jung-hoon Choi. ”

Jung-hoon Choi?

The minister of defense frowned as if the minister of finance was a novice.

How can someone who is in charge of the economy of a country use information so slowly?

Even if all he does is look his best, the least important information should be in his hands.

“What is your position? ”

“I'm Deputy Director of NDF. ”

“You're not the director, you're the deputy director? ”

“You can't put ordinary people in charge of NDF, not competent people. Although the manager is Seo Ah-young, the practical manager's work is handled by Jung-hoon Choi. ”

“I see.”

But he's Lee Hyuk's contact?

Not your boss?

“That's weird. If he's Lee Hyuk's boss, why don't you just give the order? ”

“Ha……. ”

“Oops!”

Did you say something wrong again?

The minister of interior's face fluttered with blaspheming young sighs.

“What a magnificent man.... ”

Even the primitive criticism is heard, but there is no excuse for him not understanding the situation. I'm just going to get angry and curse again, so I have to keep my mouth shut like a mute who eats honey.

“Do they listen to ‘yes’ as long as the skilled person says it? They're so hip, you press them with the law, you press them with more power, you press them with all your might! ”

“… of course. ”

“But what are you going to do about Lee Hyuk? I want to be able to stop it with all the capabilities and all the military in Korea. If he's willing, the blues fly away in 10 minutes. ”

“In ten minutes? So soon?”

The minister of defense shook his chest as if he were frustrated.

“No, it takes 10 minutes to get here and three seconds for the blue bar to fly! No, it'll take three seconds. ”

The KSF Prelate shakes her head.

“Good thing it took me three seconds. I think I can pray. ”

“But what? What are we gonna do with him? Give the order?"

The Secretary of Defense's face is flattered.

“Do you know how much you have to wear to send him on a business trip? It's easy to tell! If you say," Convince me, "that's enough. But do you think it's normal to convince him? Do you have any idea how much I tried to do that and begged a young man who wasn't even on the mortgage? ”

“… Calm down. ”

“But what? What's the big deal? ”

“I'm sorry."

The minister bows his head.

“Know the situation better and speak up. No, just don't say as much as you can, just stay put. It's frustrating.”

“Hnng... ”

“Think about whether or not the Foreign Ministry ran away. This is not a normal job. ”

The atmosphere sank heavily.

Lee Ji-hyuk.

Lee Hyuk was the problem.

It was true that Lee Hyuk brought the film to Korea, but in their view, Lee Hyuk was like an uncontrollable bomb.

Judging from the analyzed data, he decides not to deal with it, but no one has tried to approach Lee Hyuk since the last time the Foreign Minister was robbed.

If not, he should have received a medal several times already, but he was still being delayed because he was not confident that the recipients of the medal would face Lee Hyuk.

The Secretary of State has asked for it.

“So, did you contact Choi Jung-hoon? ”

“I haven't heard back. ”

“It's not salty, but why don't you try again? ”

Under mild pressure, the Secretary of Defense turns his head to look at the KSF ledger.

“Knng... ”

The principal sighs and picks up the phone.

Although he is in the presidential position, the practical management is that whoever is suitable to contact Choe Jeong-hoon is him.

You dial the phone number and wait for the call to ring.

“Oh!”

Connected!

The ledger turned white and opened his mouth.

“Hello! Lee Ji-hyuk is calling the Cheongwa University right now, what's the reason? ”

- Yes?

“Lee Hyuk is calling the president's office. Find out why! ”

- Who are you?

The Prelate's face distorted.

Did he eat the heat?

“I am the Head of KSF. Aren't you Choi Jung-hoon? ”

- No, it's not.

You're not?

The ledger, who picked up the phone and checked the liquid crystal, tilted his head.

It's Choi Jung-hoon's phone.

“Who are you, then?

- It's Lee Ji-hyuk.

“… Yes? ”

- It's Yi Hyuk.

“Oh, Lee Hyuk. ”

The principal smiled awkwardly and turned his head and looked at the Minister of State, Choi Jung-hoon, as if to kill him. The same was true of the other ministers.

The Secretary of State was forced to dig to the ground after the human being who lived and gunned down on the scene.

I knew it.

And when you ask these humans to call you, you put pressure on them, and now you come and you see the pose shift.

The principal smiles awkwardly at the Secretary of State for a long time and opens his mouth.

“Oh, you must be Lee Hyuk. May I ask why Lee Hyuk is holding Jeong-hoon's phone? ”

- I'm just holding it. Can't I?

I don't see why not.

Who's gonna stop you from doing that? The drifter's out of his mind.

“Hahaha... Oh, no. I'll call you back. ”

- But who are you?

“I… am the Head of KSF. ”

- Is the ledger high?

“I'm probably the tallest. ”

- Oh, so you're in charge. That's great.

What's good for you?

I feel like hell.

I sat at my desk, and I watched a lot of what you did. I never wanted anything to do with you. So why don't you hang up on me?

- Uncle.

“Yes.”

If I were you, I'd call you the Prelate. What are you, man?

Although he sighed deeply, 'Do not expect normal manners or reactions from Lee Ji-hyuk’ was KSF's first rule.

- Why do you keep calling and bothering people?

“Yes?”

- Why do you keep bothering people when people are dying from work and they can't replenish their workforce?

“Oh, no, we replenished the workforce the other day. ”

You robbed the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of money, manpower and all.

― … Uncle.

Lee Hyuk's voice faded slightly.

The principal, who was creeped out by his whole body, bites his fist in the mouth and yells out loudly.

Those who watched the scene got tense and clenched their fists tightly.

“Yes, go ahead. ”

Then Lee Hyuk's voice came out from behind the phone.

- Hey, where are you?

“ ……. ”

Everyone's fiery gaze turns to the Prelate.

The ledger opened his mouth, feeling the look on his face. This rush of pressure is too strong.

No, sir. Have you placed a golf club on your desk? Rumor has it he's practicing golf in the Oval Office.

... I hope the Secretary of State gets his hands off me. You, that belt... is that a handgun belt?

The KSF ledger, who could not overcome the pressure spilling from everywhere, opened his mouth with tears.

“This is my office. ”

― See you in a minute.

“Yes…. ”

The phone was disconnected and the KSF ledger wrapped around his face.

The president approached him, tapped his shoulder, and said in a worrying tone.

“Hurry to the Oval Office. ”

Rubbish.

The human scum was here.

Headmaster KSF stood up helplessly.

“ ……. ”

He looks around quietly and stumbles outside.

“Come back alive! ”

“… bastards. ”

You hear something strange, but like politicians, you send him away smiling.

RRRRRR.

But then the phone started ringing again.
