Chapter 65
Chapter 65 . Capturing Kwak-jung’s heart (pt . 1)“Ugh…”
Kwak-jung moaned and woke up from his deep sleep .
“God dammit . ”
He had no idea what the hell was going on right now .
Around 5 weeks ago, he had gone into Park Doo-sik’s office and fought a stranger, before being absolutely pummeled by him .
Until then, that was the life of an average gangster .
It was normal for people like them to go single-handedly against an enemy, before being beaten up by them .
It even came out in a lot of movies .
The main character, or the villain beat the enemy organization up while relaxedly smoking .
But that was not all .
When he woke up, what waited for him was a hospital room guarded by metal bars, like prison .
He was wearing titanium handcuffs and clothes that limited his movement .
And he also had a mouthpiece that stopped him from biting his tongue or talking .
“Oop… OOP OOP!! OOOOOOOOOOOP! (You crazy bastards! What the hell did you do to me?)”
Although he tried to conjure up his mana, he was still unable to break through the titanium handcuffs that bound him up .
And that was not the only problem .
Outside were around 20 special force guards that were armed with USP auto pistols, guarding him 24/7 .
And even when he had to take care of his natural needs, he needed to show off his private parts . His freedom had been absolutely taken away .
And after 3 days of the constant humiliation, an old man came to visit him .
“Kuku… It seems like you aren’t having a good time . ”
Although this old man seemed well in his seventies or sixties, he still looked very healthy, and tall .
‘Who is this guy? I feel like I’ve seen him before…’
He thought that he had seen this old man somewhere before .
This old man quite seemed like Chairman Kwon, an absolutely big shot in not just the Korean underworld, but the entire world too . “N-No way… Chairman Kwon?”
Black Leopard looked at Old man Kwon, his eyes round with surprise, while Old man Kwon looked at Black Leopard as if he knew everything that he was thinking .
“Seems like you know me . ”
“… . . ”
“You’re an adventurer?”
Because Black Leopard had his mouthpiece on and he couldn’t speak, the only one talking here was Old man Kwon .
“Since you’re an adventurer, I couldn’t leave you in a nice, comfortable room . Who knows if you would rampage here and destroy everything . ”
And Black Leopard raged inside, at Old man Kwon’s reasoning .
‘This god damned crazy old man! Does he think I’m Hannibal Lector or something? (A crazy psychopath in a novel . The one in silence of the lambs . ) Huh?”
“Do not hate me . The one that wanted you here wasn’t me . ”
“… . . ?”
“My very important business partner so desperately wanted you to work for him after all . ”
Black Leopard couldn’t understand what Old man Kwon was talking about . And it seemed very right too .
A peasant-born person that was in South Korea, Kang Chul-in . And against that was the one that had been given a diamond-spoon since he was born, Alex Rothschild . And the scholar Lee Gong-Myung against the gangster Kwak-jung . Thinking about it, it was completely a battle of Black vs White .
‘This, this is some sort of movie . ’
Kang Chul-in thought of the report that he had read on Kwak-jung’s early life .
And even though Kang Chul-in had read it in detail, it was very hard to explain .
To say it simply in keywords, they were: domestic violence, running away from home, crime, prison, gangster, debt etc . It was quite a pitiful and violence-filled life, so it was understandable why Kwak-jung was such a heavy smoker .
If it was a normal person they would have probably gone crazy or become an alcoholic, but Kwak-jung didn’t throw himself away like that . It was something that Kang Chul-in thought highly of .
And while he was thinking of that, Kang Chul-in got closer and closer to An-san .
The reason why he came here was very simple .
According to Old man Kwon, a very important person to Kwak-jung lived here .
And when Kang Chul-in arrived there, some university students looked at Kang Chul-in’s car curiously .
“Woah, a Jaguar . ”
“A Coupe too . ”
“Kuuuu, look how dope that car is . ”
“Big bro, is this car expensive?”
“Of course it is, it’s around maybe 200,000 dollars?”
“Woah… so expensive . Is a lamborghini more expensive, or this?”
“Of course a lambo . ”
“Then is a Lamborghini better than this car?”
“Well… It is more expensive . ”
“Oh, so it is then . ”
And listening to their conversation, Kang Chul-in’s face stiffened .
‘These things… Do they think that only Ferraris and Lamborghinis are super cars or something?’
Kang Chul-in thought of this and seriously contemplated whether to take a Lamborghini from Old man Kwon .
Well, since he was going to buy most of the super cars anyway, it didn’t really matter to him .
After parking the car, Kang Chul-in started walking towards his destination .
And surprisingly enough, he was headed to a creepy, small road .
Crossing his arms together, he waited for the person that he was looking for to arrive .
Around 2 hours later, a group of boys and girls walked on the road that he was .
“Kak, twep . ”
“Hey, hey, hand me a cigar . ”
“Me too, me too!”
They were a teenagers, smoking cigarettes secretly here, making it into a sort of base .
‘Is she here?’
Kang Chul-in scanned through the group, looking for the person that he was supposed to find .
‘Yes, she is . ’
Identifying the target, Kang Chul-in smiled . As expected, Doo-sik’s information was right .
“You there . ”
Kang Chul-in started walking towards that group and pointed towards a particularly pretty girl .
“You, come with me . ”
It was Kwak-jung’s younger sister .
