The Return of the High-ranking Civil Servant
Episode 361
Quite some time has passed.
The poison of the poisonous dragon was powerful.
Endo became a wreck.
That’s understandable, because Endo, who was stabbed in the acupoint, was trapped in the prison of his own body like a vegetable with his neck locked, and could only suffer from the poison without being able to move.
There was no need to die.
Because the world’s best player and the world’s best healer were always there to take care of me.
Suho took great care of her.
The nursing was so meticulous that when administering a new poison, the existing poison was completely detoxified through recovery before being administered.
Of course, it also gave me some time to rest.
Because that brief moment of sweetness makes the new poison feel more terrible.
“Eeeeeeeep!!”
She shudders in pain as the new poison is administered.
But on the outside, he looks very gentle.
All I could do was sit on a chair and shiver slightly.
After giving him the poison and using the heel, Suho looked at the time again.
‘I guess I just need to do a little more.’
There is a degree to everything.
I wanted to lock him up like a bloodthirsty man and make him suffer for a long time, but one person in charge of the Mega Crusher was enough.
In addition, Endo’s level is higher than expected, so it becomes quite difficult and troublesome to manage from a long-term perspective.
So I decided to punish him in a short and sweet way.
After a while, Suho, who thought he had caused her enough pain, released her wounds.
“Ahhh… … .”
As the bleeding subsided, an indescribable moan escaped her lips.
His face was already covered in tears, snot, and blood.
However, Suho did not show any sympathy and spoke with an indifferent expression.
“I can talk now. This will be the last time, but if you have anything to say, just say it.”
“To me… … Why on earth are you doing this to me… … .”
“Then why did you do that?”
“Wh, what… … ?”
“If you don’t know, just think of it as punishment. In fact, not only in relation to me, you have already been punished by heaven. Do you think I don’t know? How many people have you killed under the pretext of ‘poison experiments’ inside the gate?”
“How, how did you… …!”
Suho frowned at her answer.
It’s literal.
The so-called gate crime.
These are crimes that occur among players who enter the gate, and murder is the main crime.
If you kill someone inside the gate, there’s usually no evidence left behind.
Of course, Suho doesn’t have any exact evidence either.
But before returning, there were things Endo always said like a habit.
“I once wanted to experiment with poison, so I formed a party and went to the Gate. I used poison on all the party members, and it worked really well, right?”
Of course, after these words were said.
“You know I’m joking, right? Who would do something like that? Hahaha!”
It always ends like this.
It was a joke, it was a joke, do you believe me?
Since there was no evidence, she couldn’t really be convicted.
But Suho was confident.
Even if others don’t know, Endo must have committed many gate crimes.
‘You can tell just by looking at the poison you’ve given me.’
And Suho was finally able to confirm the truth of the past at this moment.
“It’s obvious even without looking. You’re that kind of woman.”
“What is that… … !”
“Think of it as karma. You’ll only cause trouble if you stay alive.”
Suho touched her aching spot again.
Then, after throwing her into the subspace house, I erased her traces and only then left the house.
I have no intention of burning down the house or anything like that.
Because she will be quietly reported missing later.
Suho, who had just finished one of his bad relationships, finally got back on his horse.

Time passed quickly and Yamaguchi quickly disintegrated and disappeared.
The power of public authority was truly great.
With the National Tax Service, the National Police Agency, and even the Ministry of Public Safety and Security being mobilized, Yamaguchi, who had lost its center of gravity, was bound to quickly sink even if it was the best guild in the country.
Is that all?
As promised to Deputy Secretary-General Miyamoto, Suho and Sumiyoshi began to destroy Yamaguchi’s subordinate organizations.
Of course, not everything was destroyed.
Places that raised a white flag and surrendered in the middle were absorbed by Sumiyoshi on humanitarian grounds as promised.
However, the number of places that were absorbed was small.
This is because most of them were people who lived in darkness and could not suddenly become new people now.

“The progress is good.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Then there’s nothing more I should worry about?”
In the meantime, Hiro became Suho’s complete servant… no, his confidant.
It can’t be helped.
Because Suho would teach me swordsmanship whenever he had time.
Hiro answered Suho’s question.
“It seems that most of the Yamaguchi subordinate organization issues have been resolved, but there is one important issue that remains.”
“What is it?”
“This is about the big players belonging to Yamaguchi.”
“Affiliated player? Oh, right. Yamaguchi was also in a guild.”
The guild acts as a management agency for players.
In that sense, most of the players who made a name for themselves in Japan were affiliated with Yamaguchi.
Although they are fundamentally yakuza, that doesn’t mean they run their management business in a yakuza-like manner.
‘You can’t do it the Yakuza way in the first place. The big players are equipped with weapons of war, unlike ordinary people.’
Suho asked.
“What’s the problem?”
“I think they’re going to file a lawsuit because there are a lot of issues with the settlement amount and other options. If we follow the procedure, we should meet with the players and write a new contract while we absorb Yamaguchi… … .”
“Can it be done?”
“Everything is fine, but there’s one guy who’s the problem: Kenji.”
“Kenji?”
“Yes, Kenji the Storm is currently the top player in Japan.”
If it’s top-notch, it’s number one.
Only then did Suho remember who Kenji was.
“Oh, who was that guy? He’s crazy about women?”
“Do you know?”
“He’s a top-tier player, you know. His moves are so flashy.”
Even though it wasn’t the Library of Memory, I vaguely remembered it.
That’s understandable. He’s a good fighter and has a good gate clearance rate, so he’s definitely a useful talent, but he’s too bright when it comes to women.
To be exact, he had such a crazy sexual desire that he touched people he shouldn’t have, like minors and married women, and at one point… … no, he constantly caused social controversy, so I remember him.
‘I remember that I died at some gate around the middle of the Great Cataclysm… … .’
Looking at the time zone, it seems like it’s still a season to be alive.
Suho stroked his chin for a moment and then asked.
“So, what exactly is Kenji’s problem? Is there anything about women in the terms of the contract?”
“Yes, that’s right. It seems that Yamaguchi was providing women as options.”
“Tsk tsk, Kenji and Yamaguchi are both crazy. But doesn’t Kenji think that if we make this public, his image will be ruined?”
“That doesn’t pose much of a threat to Kenji.”
“Why? Is Japan a little different?”
“No. In Japan, when a celebrity commits adultery, they apologize to the public and such. However, Kenji originally had an image of being outgoing and generally liked women, so even if a scandal like that were to break out, it wouldn’t be a big blow to him because he would just be Kenji as usual.”
but.
Celebrities who usually have the image of being swearers sometimes really swear, but people laugh it off because they think it’s just their image.
It’s not that different from a woman’s problem.
‘If you do something good ninety-nine times and then fail to do it once, you become a bad person. If you do something bad ninety-nine times and then fail to do it once, you become a good person.’
Hiro continued to explain.
“Furthermore, Kenji has never dropped in the rankings since he became a top player, so he is currently enjoying almost religious popularity in Japan. So I don’t think it will be a big blow.”
“hmm.”
okay.
There was this problem too.
I forgot for a moment.
Popularity is scarier than you think.
Especially, popularity among people is almost like a religion, which makes them lose their reason and cloud their judgment.
‘There’s a reason why cults exist.’
The reason Suho doesn’t make a special appearance despite his popularity is largely to guard against this.
Even if you don’t reveal it, you can still wage a war of public opinion if you put your mind to it, so how much more so must Kenji, who reigns like a god, be?
The guy is confident in his popularity and skills and has considerable showmanship.
Suho nodded.
“Is that guy over level 200?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Then there’s no problem except for that guy?”
“Yes, the second place player, the White Priestess, contacted us in advance and made a contract.”
“Then just let Kenji go. There’s no reason to make a contract with that guy and drag him along, right?”
“Legally, yes, but Kenji thinks that we, Sumiyoshi, have taken Yamaguchi apart. So he’s inconvenient because of you guys, so if you don’t provide convenience for Yamaguchi, he’ll attack us in some way.”
“What are you attacking? Are you waging war like the Yakuza?”
“Rather than that, I think they’ll just keep pestering and using their fans. If they keep doing that, the Japanese government won’t be able to completely ignore them… … .”
Kenji is not an ordinary person.
They are the industrial force fighting on the front lines to directly resolve the gate that is seen as a disaster for the country.
So, it’s not entirely wrong.
“He really is a pain in the ass.”
“Yes, that’s the problem.”
Suho’s eyebrows furrow.
I tried to avoid this problem as much as possible, but I can’t help it.
Suho said.
“Call Kenji and tell him to come over. Somewhere with no people. I need to meet him in person.”
“Are you speaking directly?”
“Oh, I think that’s what we should do. We need to meet these guys in person and deal with them to solve this problem.”
“Are you okay? The other person is… … .”
Suho smiled at Hiro’s worry.
“Hiroya.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Worry about what you have to worry about.”
“Well… … I’m sorry.”
“That’s possible. Call me quickly. I’m wasting my time.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Hiro contacts her right away.

A while later, Kenji showed up at the hotel suite designated as the meeting place.
“Open!”
Kenji appeared, roughly kicking the door open.
From the hairstyle to the way he dressed, it was quite rough, and seeing it in person reminded me of the old days.
Suho was sitting on the sofa.
Kenji frowned at the sight and said.
“What? Are you alone? What about everyone else?”
“Oh, I’m alone. Come and sit down. I came here alone on purpose.”
“What is that…? Who are you? What do you do at Sumiyoshi?”
Kenji doesn’t sit down.
Instead, she put her feet up on the sofa where Suho was sitting and looked down at him with her brows furrowed.
Suho, who saw that sight, quietly warned.
“I told you to sit down?”
[Mini Peer is activated.]
Tingle tingle!
Mini Peer has been activated.
At the same time, Kenji’s hair stood on end in an overwhelming sense of fear he had never experienced before.
“Uh, uh… … .”
Kenji froze like a stone.
Suho stood up from his seat and put his hand on the acupoint near the guy’s groin and said.
“If this is the problem, then just seal it up.”
The subsequent acupuncture.
and.
“Eww! Ouch, it’s cold. Why does it suddenly feel so cold?”
Son Baek-geum, who was working in Gangnam, suddenly felt chills.
