Chapter 472 – Lost Money (3)

Maruhan.
I felt this was a name I should know.

“Do you know who those members are?”
“Yes. I’ve often heard the names that Park Cheol-gyu mentioned. I’ve seen some of them face-to-face. But I don’t have a specific list. Some are familiar and some are not. It is only true that there is. We are closely connected with foreign governments and guilds.”
“Could you tell me a name you know?”

At my request, Lee Luna gave me the names of the Maruhan members she remembered.
There were some names I had heard of, but most of them were unfamiliar.

“Oh, I guess they were involved.”

Yoonmi Choi said.
As she has been in this industry and has been in business for a long time, she seemed to be familiar with the names that Lee Luna mentioned about her.

“It won’t be easy.”

She said carefully.

“I think it’s better to make them less vigilant than to openly shoot them. It’s because things get complicated when they’re connected to foreign hunters. If they think they’re at a disadvantage, they’ll do anything they can.”

Yoonmi Choi was right.
Didn’t even Han Cheol-gwan try to attract Japanese hunters?
The confrontation with Tadanobu was ongoing.
Right now, the relationship between the two countries is strained, so it would be difficult to move recklessly, but it was clear that they would soon take action.

“I heard from Mr. Iruna that Park Cheol-gyu has about 300 billion won in cash assets.”
“300 billion?”

Although the concept of money has completely changed since becoming an S-class hunter, 300 billion won is still a lot of money.
Do you have something like that secretly?
Would you say the scale is different?
Even Park Cheol-gyu was just a member of an organization called Maruhan.

“They say it’s hidden in one of the buildings owned by Park Chul-gyu. What do you want to do?”
“If you can bring it, you should bring it.”

It’s not 1 or 200 million won, it’s 300 billion won.
If left alone, it was obvious that Park Cheol-gyu’s family or Maruhan would take it.
I don’t know how far Park Cheol-gyu’s death was known, but it would have been better to bring it before someone moved first.

“There are hunters protecting it.”

Iruna said.
Of course it was.
It wasn’t even a penny or two, but if it was that much, he would have hired hunters to protect it.

“It’s a guild called the Red Blood Club. They run the guild office in that building and guard Cheol-gyu Park’s hidden assets.”
“Are they bad guys?”

Once I met them, I didn’t know if there would be murder.
I could have guessed that they wouldn’t be good hunters as they were hired by Park Cheol-gyu, but I wanted to be sure.

“Yes. They are very bad quality.”

Iruna frowned at her as if she didn’t even want to think of her.
Just by looking at her expression like this, she could tell for sure that they weren’t good hunters.

“I should go there today.”

It felt a little strange to go to a guild building to bring money, not even a dungeon.
But it was clear that it was something that had to be done.

“I will go with you.”

Iruna came out.

“It’s a dangerous thing. I think it would be better if we didn’t go together.”
“If I go, it will be easier to finish. I want to help.”

Iruna’s expression was serious.
She seemed to want to prove that she belonged to Park Chul-gyu’s side no longer.
She was a face that made me feel that way.

“I see.”

As Iruna said, it would be better if it could be done easily.
It wasn’t that I wanted to commit an avoidable murder.

“Are you here?”

I drove her car to the place where Iruna had guided her.
The building was more ordinary than I thought.
It was not a fancy or nice building, and the number of floors was only five.
It is difficult to imagine that 300 billion won in cash assets are hidden in such a building.
Moreover, it doesn’t seem likely to be used as a guild office.

I searched for the red blood group, but it was a guild with no record of activity.
It didn’t seem like it was a guild that made its name known in the shadows because it didn’t do normal hunter activities to enter the dungeon.

“There are about a dozen guilds that Park Cheol-gyu runs.”
“Park Chul-kyu personally moved 10 hunter guilds?”
“There are only a lot of numbers, but in reality, only three of them are organized. You can think of him as an idiot who does what Cheol-gyu Park tells him to do.”
“It’s a joke…”

More than I thought, Irruna was on the side of freedom in using language.
When I recalled my first impression of her, it was hard to believe that these words would come out of her mouth naturally.
Maybe I myself had a prejudice against the job of ‘wealth manager’.

“Is the red blood group one of the three?”
“Yeah. So he said he would come with me. I don’t think it’s okay if Hunter-nim suffers any inconvenience.”

Having said that, Iruna blushed.
You might think he’s the type to be loyal to the person who originally hired him, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
In terms of the atmosphere, it was found that the influence of ‘favor without reason’ was strongly exerted.

When I recall the first time I fell for Seulbi Kim, I could understand how she felt.
It didn’t actually happen, but I thought that if Seulbi Kim had been in trouble at that time, she would have done something with me too.
From the point of view of an ordinary person, falling for an S-class hunter was just as dangerous.
I became a hunter now, but it was when I was a normal person that I got to know me.
It was understandable that she fell for me.

“You don’t have to worry about me.”
“Everything in Maruhan is connected. There is one of two ways. Or leave no traces at all. Buy time without arousing suspicion.”

She was also a very clever woman.
She was the type that had responsibility and courage as well.
The two ways she said meant this.
Leaving no trace at all means the annihilation of the Red Bloods in the building.
And buying time without arousing her suspicions was a way for her to move in with herself and not clash with them at all.

She seemed to think the latter was easier than the former.
In the end, even if it flows into the former situation, it was also correct to try the latter first.

As I was about to drive into the parking lot, someone approached me.
It made me feel right away that he was not a normally hired employee by walking around with his hands in his pockets.

He knocked on the windshield.
The car was so luxurious that he seemed a bit hesitant, but he had a very bad attitude anyway.

I lowered the car glass.
The man looked at me and he asked.

“What did you come for?”

Seeing him speak casually, I thought he was inexperienced in many ways.
Atmosphere-wise, this guy was a C-class hunter.
Since he didn’t often meet a hunter stronger than himself, he assumed that the opponent would be an ordinary person.
If you showed up here in such an expensive car, you might want to think about other possibilities.

I got the impression that this is a very controlled place.
It is a place that is not exposed to the outside unless Park Cheol-gyu directly contacts him.
So, from the entrance, it must be blocking the entry of outsiders with a bad attitude.
It was only natural that there was no advance notice that someone would come, at least today.
Because Park Cheol-gyu is already dead.

“Mr. Hello.”

From the passenger seat, Iruna put her face out and said.
The man who was called by Lee Luna’s name said, “Huh?” He groaned and threw his arms over the door of his car.
He treated me as if he were invisible and asked only looking at me.

“Aren’t you Luna? What is she? Didn’t you come in the company car today?”
“The president sent me in a hurry. Are you inside Mr. Seunggi?”
“Brother, of course you are inside. Park and get out. I’ll call your brother.”
“Thanks.”

The man looked down at me disapprovingly.
It seems that he doesn’t like the fact that Iruna is riding in the passenger seat.
He probably had a crush on the beautiful woman, Iruna.
Even though he was a Hunter, it was difficult for him, who was at the bottom of the organization, to challenge Lee Luna.
So I got the feeling that they were looking at me with jealous eyes.
It wasn’t a pleasant situation, but the S-class reacting to the C-class hunter was like an adult getting angry with a child.

I opened the car door and entered the parking lot.
A few vans and sedans were parked in the shabby parking lot.
Even with the name of a guild, I thought that the level and method of activity were very different.
Even Kim Se-yeon had to make a guild and go through hardships.
Of course, not all hunters and guilds were doing well.

As she parked and got out of the car, Iruna told me.

“Sorry. If I hadn’t followed you, you wouldn’t have to go through this.”

It seemed that she, too, was troubled by her behavior as a red-blooded gangster.

“Don’t worry because I don’t care. Let’s finish our work and go back quickly.”
“Yeah.”

“Sister!”

The thug holding her phone up to her ear waved at us.
