16. Kim Pan-ho (3)
Kim Pan-ho’s reaction was calmer than expected.
Without any sign of hesitation, I blurted out the words.
“Golden Circle. “What is that?”
In those words.
Hyunseong Kim took a moment to catch his breath.
Does a powerful person like Kim Pan-ho really not know about the Golden Circle?
Even with his past life experience, he couldn’t be sure whether the current Kim Pan-ho knew or didn’t know about the Golden Circle.
but.
There was a clear fact.
‘At least I’m not a client of the Golden Circle.’
At the time, there was a lot of competition for the presidential election.
In order to appeal to himself, Kim Pan-ho proposed strong punishment for those involved in the Golden Circle and various policies to prevent school violence. The remarks at that time were quite aggressive. If he himself had participated in the Golden Circle, he could never say so. Kim Pan-ho used the Golden Circle as a stepping stone.
So I needed him.
A powerful person who has access to the Golden Circle, but who has not yet stepped into its muddy waters.
Kim Pan-ho was the ideal puzzle for the one plan that Kim Hyun-seong was constantly improving in his head.
Hyunseong Kim said.
“In Korea, there exists a group called the Golden Circle. It may be unfamiliar to you as a member of the National Assembly, but it is a group that forms a ‘cartel’ in return for taking care of the children of those in power. Their key keywords are two. The first is school violence. They use school violence as a weapon to destroy their competitors so that the children of those in power can achieve excellent grades in school, or even just for fun. If people find out, they can’t help but be outraged. “The cartel of those in power itself is a sensitive issue in the first place, but school violence is something that children of ordinary people can also experience on a daily basis.”
I looked at the other person’s reaction.
How did Kim Pan-ho react and whether he joined the Golden Circle differently than expected?
“The second is the purpose of the cartel’s existence. They maintain a mutually beneficial relationship under the name Golden Line. Improper solicitation, stock price manipulation, real estate speculation, etc. Since they share each other’s ‘secret wealth’, they do not hesitate to do dirty work for their own benefit. What if the existence of the Golden Circle were revealed to the world? If people find out what they’ve been up to, it’s sure to turn into a huge incident. Of course, I might keep that secret for the rest of my life. But the longer the tail, the more likely it is to be stepped on, and as more beings like me are created, secrets are bound to be revealed.”
In fact, the identity of the Golden Circle was discovered.
Kim Hyun-seong became a vegetable and was unable to reveal the truth, but he was not the only victim in the world.
All over the country.
Malice was building up.
As the Golden Circle’s evil deeds continue, the secret cannot be kept forever.
“If the. When the Golden Circle emerges as a social problem, what do you think will happen if a politician quickly solves the problem? It’s a matter of collusive relationships that people don’t like and the future of our children. I can assure you, you can become a star in an instant. At that time, you can never be held back by accusations of university corruption. In the end, university corruption is just a very small version of the Golden Circle incident, so who can blame the congressman for solving an even bigger case? therefore.”
last.
Hyunseong Kim gave strength to his voice.
“Take credit for that. “At that time, you will have a story suitable for a presidential candidate, rather than an obvious story.”
* * *
The plate was laid.
Kim Pan-ho’s reaction was important.
Kim Pan-ho burst into laughter at a story that was bound to work if the presidential election was meant to be successful.
“Hahaha. “This is really crazy.”
Conversation with Kim Hyun-seong.
It was a series of absurdities.
What on earth are they thinking about, and every word they say is completely outside of common sense?
Kim Pan-ho said.
“Do you know what that means?”
that word.
Proved one fact.
Kim Pan-ho knew of the existence of the Golden Circle.
If so, I had an answer prepared for you.
“Yes, I know. The Golden Circle is probably not a group that I, a high school student, can handle. I think that’s the same for you as well. If the Golden Circle forms a great cartel, if they are recognized as powerful people in Korea. The loss you would gain by antagonizing them would be more severe than the admiration you would gain by destroying them. What I want to say here is not to ask you to take the same risks as me.”
It opened the way for escape.
In order to attract Kim Pan-ho, putting a ‘bomb’ in his arms will not be allowed.
“Just give us as much help as we need, when we need it. I will only make demands that you can handle, and even if I end up ruined, I will never mention your name. There will come a time when the congressman will have to show himself. At that time, I will provide you with the confidence that we can destroy the Golden Circle, and you can take over everything I have achieved so far. Gorgeous modifiers and the power that comes from them. “Those are the terms of the deal I can give you.”
“Are you willing to take on all the risks yourself? Even so, the mere fact that I did something for you would be problematic.”
“Circumstances and truth are different. “At that level, you will never have any problems.”
“Hmm.”
He looked worried.
I wasn’t sure.
As Kim Hyun-seong said, it was an ideal scenario, but I didn’t think that the Golden Circle could be destroyed with the plans of only a 17-year-old high school student. Isn’t it so absurd? If he had been a person who would be fooled by simple words, he would not have been able to hold his seat as a member of the National Assembly for over 10 years.
It was the reaction I expected.
Rather, the more cautious the better.
If a prudent person makes a decision, it means that he or she is sincere, even if there are safety measures in place.
Hyunseong Kim said.
“I understand your concerns, so I will give you enough time to think about it. In the meantime, please research me in more detail than before. “Not just a 17-year-old high school student.”
A hidden secret.
A secret that no one knows that could deceive Kim Pan-ho.
“Please investigate the background of Go Chang-beom, whom Go Chang-seok, the second son of Myungjin Construction, was eagerly searching for.”
The secret was revealed.
* * *
Hyunseong Kim left the office.
Looking down at the scene outside the window, Kim Pan-ho showed a strange expression.
“… … “A high school student trying to destroy the Golden Circle.”

He was truly the craziest person in his life.
As Kim Hyun-seong expected, Kim Pan-ho knew of the existence of the Golden Circle.
Golden Circle.
This is a group that is secretly known to those in power.
Obviously, it was initially formed simply as a request relationship, but at some point, more and more people started making requests to join the cartel. While sharing the same secret. There were many Golden Circle clients around Kim Pan-ho. They invited Kim Pan-ho to come in in a subdued voice, but surprisingly, he reacted indifferently.
The reason was simple.
Golden Circle Discipline.
It was because of that.
The Golden Circle pushes and pulls each other in many areas, but does not allow cartels in one area.
It was politics.
In matters related to money, benefits can be shared, but power is an area that cannot be shared in the first place. Those in power are like that. Driven by his greed for power, the founder of the Golden Circle knew that reckless political action could completely destroy the cartel’s relationships.
So political activities were prohibited.
Although different political parties can share various issues and help each other, a line has been drawn to never share politics through the Golden Circle. Thanks to this, the Golden Circle has been able to maintain its power until now. Even though they were political enemies on the outside, they helped and supported each other in the act of inflating their assets for each other’s benefit. Even if they fail politically and fall into the abyss. If you have deep pockets, at least the lives of ordinary people, not politicians, will not be so lacking.
of course.
Even though there are rules, it does not mean that there is complete control.
Although secret conversations would certainly take place outside of the Golden Circle, Kim Pan-ho did not want to enter a group that did not match his direction. It is not because he is upright and upright. After becoming a politician and being caught up in university corruption, he didn’t like the relationship of sharing secrets.
If there were clear political gains even at the risk, he would have become a member of the cartel right away.
‘There are a lot of big names in the Golden Circle that even I can’t handle. But one high school student can take them down?’
It’s nonsense.
It is absurd and impossible.
Even Kim Pan-ho did not know the entire Golden Circle.
Since I didn’t set foot in it myself, I could only scratch the surface, but that alone made me feel the powerful power of the Golden Circle.
My mind has already changed.
I had no intention of accepting the offer.
Still, I couldn’t refuse.
Just as Kim Hyun-seong solved Jang Ho-il’s problem, I had a strange feeling that he was not just talking.
Beep.
“come in.”
I called the secretary.
And then.
“Investigation Kim Hyun-seong right now. “Under the premise that he is behind Go Chang-beom.”
“All right.”
As always, Kim Pan-ho did not make a hasty judgment.
* * *
While Kim Pan-ho is busy.
Hyunseong Kim had a normal day.
When I arrived at school a little later than usual, I heard the voices of friends gathered in small groups talking.
“Did you hear the news?”
“What.”
“I heard Oh Hye-ji dropped out.”
“Drop out? The reason you suddenly stopped going to school is because you dropped out? why?”
“So I don’t understand either. She was good at studying and getting along well with her friends, but from what her teachers said, she suddenly dropped out. And I’m not sure about this, but Hyeji Oh was brought into the emergency room a few days ago. “I heard she was hurt so badly she could barely walk.”
“omg.”
My friends didn’t know the truth.
Kim Hyun-seong assaulted Oh Hye-ji and threatened her father with a knife.
Although Kim Young-cheol quickly resolved the situation, Choi Seon-ah, who was directly involved, also did not spread any word about Oh Hye-ji. It wasn’t a particular threat. As if it were an unspoken promise, she didn’t show the slightest interest in the fact that her best friend had dropped out.
What my friends are talking about.
From that, one fact could be inferred.
If the injury was so severe that she could not walk, there was a high possibility that Oh Chun-sam would have cut Oh Hye-ji’s Achilles tendon.
It was stupid.
In fact, there were plenty of ways to survive without harming my daughter.
Either hire someone to protect Oh Hye-ji, or leave Daesan and live a new life. No matter how much he sent Oh Chun-sam to prison, it would not be easy to harm Oh Hye-ji if he openly protected him.
Still, he picked up a knife.
It’s stupid, but it doesn’t mean you don’t understand.
Because he was like that too.
Before suffering from school violence and falling off the roof, Kim Hyun-seong clearly had a way to control the situation.
‘If only I had told my grandmother honestly and moved away. The Golden Circle’s request and Oh Hye-ji’s malice would not have reached Taji. But I couldn’t do that. I lived in Daesan my whole life, so I couldn’t think of leaving here, and at that time, I was in an emotionally difficult state to make common sense decisions.’
Humans are weak animals.
Instant emotion.
I couldn’t escape from it.
Kim Hyun-seong spent his three years in high school thinking that the only way was to endure the bullying because he went through a period of rebellion and opposition before giving in. The same was true for Oh Chun-sam. Faced with clear evidence and threats tainted with malicious intent, he was buried in the two options presented by Kim Hyun-seong, rather than a way to survive, such as running away.
I knew Kim Hyun-seong would react that way.
Because I had the experience of being pushed to the edge of a cliff, I knew what Oh Chun-sam would think and how he would act.
Even if he ran away contrary to plan.
The future would not have changed.
Unlike Oh Hye-ji’s pure malice, her own resentment would have pursued them until the end.
I closed my ears.
Now there were other important issues.
Oh Hye-ji plans to appoint someone to keep an eye on her, and for now, the important thing is whether or not she can persuade Kim Pan-ho. What if Kim Pan-ho rejects the offer? Although she didn’t like it, she was planning on going to Plan B right away. She will destroy Kim Pan-ho, who discovered her own plan, and raise a new opponent for her.
Can not help it.
I don’t know if they share the same direction, but I cannot allow Kim Pan-ho, who knows his true identity, to exist.
And fortunately so.
Plan B did not work.
A few days after that.
Less than a week later, I received a call from Kim Pan-ho.
