29. Purification (3)
That evening.
Jang Won-ki visited Jin Gyeong-hee separately.
He could not just sit back and watch the information secretly conveyed to him by an employee of the Office of Education.
“… … Vice principal. I guess the situation is unusual. It’s the same with what’s been reported in the media, and the fact that the Office of Education investigated even though Golden Circle came forward. “If this continues, we might be in big trouble.”
This incident.
It was different from other times.
Until now, no matter what kind of corruption was committed, the Golden Circle solved it well.
It wasn’t even a problem, let alone a media report, but the atmosphere surrounding this incident was unusual no matter how you think about it. First, the Office of Education moved directly. Since reports regarding ‘corruption’ were received from students, it was clear that action would be taken in relation to it.
That means.
Someone had to take responsibility.
The media was so upset, but there was no way it would end with ‘As it turned out, nothing happened.’
Jin Kyung-hee said with a stern face.
“Let’s wait and see. “I’ve contacted you, so I’ll give you an answer right away.”
“And then you decide to abandon us. What will you do then? I am so anxious about this situation right now. Golden Circle has been solving all problems without any noise, but with Kim Hyun-seong, nothing went as planned? If you think about it, the only way for the Golden Circle to solve this problem without harm is to abandon liars like us. It will be too late to respond by then. “We have to do something now so we can find a way to survive!”
Hyunseong Kim’s words.
That kept stimulating my anxiety.
As I raised my voice at the sinister imagination creeping up, Jin Kyung-hee’s eyes turned sharp.
“Teacher Jang Won-gi! calm down. Even if the Golden Circle makes bad choices. There is nothing we can do. Don’t you know? What kind of group is the Golden Circle? If you point a knife at the Golden Circle to save your life, can you take responsibility for the price? So, just be quiet and wait.”
“… … .”
I was speechless.
That was correct.
If you struggle to live.
I didn’t know what the Golden Circle would do.
Having watched their cruel ways all this time, Jang Won-ki was unable to say anything to Jin Kyung-hee’s remarks.
And just in time.
Ugh-!
[Park Hyeong-jun]
The long-awaited contact caught the attention of the two people.
* * *
Hyungjun Park expressed his intention to meet.
Jin Kyung-hee broke up with Jang Won-gi and immediately went to Park Hyeong-jun’s office, and as soon as she met him, she expressed her frustration.
“Please explain this situation properly. “Wouldn’t the Golden Circle’s power have prevented the Office of Education’s investigation?”
“That really got me into trouble.”
Park Hyung-jun scratched his head.
them too.
It was clearly an attempt to stop it.
However, as the situation became more complicated, some at the top came to the conclusion that they should give up.
“To be honest, the person we serve is very knowledgeable. Although he created a group called Golden Circle with a different idea than others, he has insisted on the principle of never deviating from the framework of the ‘school’ from the time of its founding until now. I fully understand what that means. Although the Golden Circle has driven many targets into the abyss, it has made it seem like nothing happened in the name of frequent school violence. In the world of the fittest, there are always perpetrators and victims, so people think it is an immature mistake made by a minor and never dare to imagine that there is a huge conspiracy behind it. So this is what happens. “If we were thinking of immediate benefits, we could make an exception and just push aside the Kim Hyun-sung case, but he thinks that just one exception creates a rift.”
“… … So. “Does this mean you’re going to abandon us?”
“I just want to tell you that this is an unavoidable situation. This matter is by no means simple. The fact that the School Violence Prevention Committee visited the Office of Education is a problem we can resolve, but Jeonghan Ilbo asked about this incident. You know it well, right? Jeonghan Ilbo does not move unless there is solid evidence. “After checking, it was confirmed that Rep. Kim Pan-ho gave the source to Jeonghan Ilbo.”
“National Assembly member Kim Pan-ho? Why did that person do this incident… … .”
“If I were to guess the reason, it would be the intention to increase approval ratings by solving social issues. Aren’t politicians naturally like that? The problem is that the area that can be covered has already been exceeded. Kim Pan-ho came forward and Jeonghan Ilbo asked, how ridiculous would it be if they just backed off without any benefit? In the end, something has to give. That’s what the Golden Circle concluded.”
In those words.
Jin Gyeong-hee lost her senses.
It meant blatantly throwing it away.
He was now openly saying that he would abandon Jin Kyung-hee and other teachers because he had to give something up.
Jin Kyung-hee’s eyes changed.
He looked at Park Hyung-jun with wildcat-like eyes.
“Do you think we’ll just suffer this?”
“Well, is there another way?”
“… … .”
“Think carefully. If you trust and follow us, you will be given a chance to be reinstated later, but if you cannot bear the pain of this moment and show your teeth, then it will be over. What we can tell you is that we are also preparing some kind of plan to deal with Kim Hyun-seong. And don’t you know? In this relationship, Gap-eul (甲乙) was decided from the beginning. “If you have received enough, shouldn’t you fulfill your duties as a person?”
Why?
Jin Kyung-hee reminded me of Jang Won-gi.
Just like what you said to him.
Park Hyung-jun was returning it to himself.
There was no other way.
I had to believe it.
“… … “They really say it so much.”
I closed my eyes tightly.
About what happens at school tomorrow.
She just wished tomorrow never came.
* * *
Hyeongjun Park’s notice.
It was also delivered to Jang Won-gi.
Jang Won-ki, who hung up the phone with Jin Kyung-hee, looked into space with a lost expression.
Tuk.

“… … done.”
Beyond the phone.
Jin Kyung-hee’s voice lost its strength.
Through previous conversations, she had told herself to raise her voice and believe in the Golden Circle, but she also knew that there was no bright future for her as a scapegoat. Her future after being fired was clear. She knew that reinstatement would not be easy, and the only thing she could count on was for the Golden Circle to provide sufficient financial compensation.
the problem is.
‘There has been no such precedent so far. Failure in this group means the end.’
The Golden Circle is a cruel group.
They built a solid iron fortress for over a dozen years, but when problems arose in the process of building the walls one by one, they were abandoned without mercy. It had to be that way. Since the Golden Circle always promoted ‘success’ to build trust, evidence of failure should never exist. Some say that the Golden Circle’s cruel methods caused the problem, but it was also true that it was what created the Golden Circle that it is today.
The corners of my eyes were trembling.
What should I do?
I couldn’t figure it out.
“… … honey. are you okay?”
“It’s okay, so go in first and sleep.”
It was my wife.
After making some excuses and sending my wife away, I went out to the veranda and smoked a cigarette.
This house.
The mortgage loan is for 20 years.
His two children showed interest in soccer, piano, and other arts and physical education that had to be paid for, but he did not know how much money he would have to spend on tuition in the future. From what I heard, I had to think about studying abroad to play the piano. Considering the amount of money spent on a single performance for my career, I could never accept the future of retirement.
The Golden Circle never.
Future expected profits will not be compensated.
And don’t the benefits of being a teacher include pension when you retire safely?
‘It’s different from Vice Principal Jin Gyeong-hee. That bitch may be okay because she’s already gotten what she deserves, but I’m not.’
Suddenly at that moment.
Hyunseong Kim came to mind.
I heard about him through the Golden Circle.
With Myungjin Construction on his back, he spends enough money on people who listen to him.
He is said to be an unprecedented person who caused several failures for the first time against a huge group called the Golden Circle.
“… … f*ck it, it’ll work out somehow.”
I picked up my cell phone.
And then.
[Hyunseong Kim]
After hesitating for a moment, I called the saved contact number.
* * *
The day was long.
It was a little while ago that he met Jin Gyeong-hee, and Jang Won-ki, who came out in the middle of the night, immediately got down on his knees as soon as he met someone.
Tuk.
“I’m sorry, Hyunseong.”
The opponent was Kim Hyun-seong.
Fortunately, upon seeing Kim Hyun-seong appear at the appointed place, Jang Won-gi spoke in a voice that seemed to be crawling.
“You know very well, but I didn’t harass you out of my own will. It was all at the Golden Circle’s behest, and with Vice Principal Jin Kyung-hee putting pressure on me, I couldn’t refuse the order. If so. Because like the principal who was fired first, my position will be in jeopardy. “As someone who had to take out a 20-year mortgage on my house and raise two children, I had no choice but to accept the disgusting demands in order to fulfill my role as the head of the household.”
It was a lot of words.
I didn’t stop talking due to the staring eyes.
“That doesn’t mean I didn’t do anything wrong. I am truly sorry and I am truly reflecting. So that’s what I’m saying… … . Could it be possible for you to accept me as yours even now? Why, I heard that when he attended Cheonil High School, he had a close relationship with teachers like Kim Young-cheol. I can do well too. “I know this isn’t what I’m going to say, but I’m the kind of person who does what I receive from someone else.”
I said the main point.
Youngcheol Kim.
This was the reason Kim Hyun-seong came to visit.
In the story of Kim Young-cheol looking after Kim Hyun-seong and receiving favors from him, Jang Won-ki thought there was still a chance.
Kim Hyun-seong’s eyes were calm.
To the point where I couldn’t tell what he was thinking, he didn’t even respond to the suggestion just now.
“teacher. Do you know Yang Min-ho?”
“… … Minho?”
Shocked, I was surprised.
Of course I knew.
A student who graduated from Daesung Mirae High School five years ago, he was an honor student who had high expectations for his excellent grades. The problem is that those grades offended someone. And Jang Won-gi, who happened to be the homeroom teacher, got into the same boat as the Golden Circle in earnest, starting with an incident five years ago.
“What about senior Yang Min-ho? I failed to get into Korean University and entered another school that matched my grades. It was a very prestigious university, so it may have seemed like a successful life to others, but the senior was unable to shake off the trauma he suffered in high school for the rest of his life. This is so funny. School violence may be remembered by the perpetrators as a memory from their school days, but the victims live trapped in that moment for the rest of their lives. Senior Yang Minho said that. Senior Minho Yang didn’t want to be bullied like he was in high school, so he acted like a high school student in college. He reacted sensitively when someone touched him and did not hesitate to punch him. As an adult, he got into fights and got into fights, so his reputation was obviously trashed, so he later joined the military as if he was running away. But was the military, which he chose as his refuge, really a good environment for him?”
army.
It is a harsh environment.
This is especially true for people who have suffered trauma from violence.
“That can’t be possible. So, that senior committed suicide in the military three years ago.”
“… … what?”
“why? “You didn’t expect this situation?”
Kim Hyun-seong’s expression turned cold.
I couldn’t respect it anymore.
An opponent wearing a human mask.
It was so disgusting.
As I looked at Jang Won-gi’s wide-open eyes, I wanted to cut them out myself.
“When you accepted the Golden Circle’s request and ruined a student’s future, you knew that the student might die. Just because she didn’t die while in school doesn’t mean it’s not your fault. You obviously killed senior Yang Min-ho. know? Kim Young-cheol or you. Everyone is mistaken: the scum who enjoy favors because of me will never be allowed a peaceful future. Even if it seems that way now, I will definitely destroy it all. therefore.”
Jang Won-gi’s eyes shook violently.
Beyond the eyes.
He felt completely overwhelmed by the enormous malice that could barely be seen by a high school student.
“Just accept it. What on earth can you do if you struggle? Apology, atonement. “Your life is already irreversible.”
