Chapter 1558 – [Social Debut]

I received a text from Eden. I contacted Eden, who was supposed to be having fun on MT, out of curiosity, and she sent me a message saying she was almost raped there.

When I first received the text and read it, I wondered what it meant. In today’s world, what has a college student experienced?

They are students anyway, but college students and those receiving compulsory education are different. Students who receive compulsory education are protected by the law, and if they are under a certain age, they are considered juveniles and receive no actual punishment, but college students are normal adults. If you decide to do so, you will not only be punished by the law, but your life will be ruined.

Moreover, the university that Eden attends is Seoul National University, one of the top three prestigious universities in Korea, so if he did something like that there, the demerit would be great. But the ones who committed it anyway… Are only kids who tried to give up on life or went crazy.

On the other hand, since it is a sexual crime, the target must be a man, and if Eden rolled her eyes after seeing it and was drinking because it was MT, she could have done something like that in a reckless spirit.

“That’s it. It’s okay.”

“I will give you the shit of my life.”

“No, that’s not it.”

“What are you talking about?”

“If you’re behind, why worry about your life in the first place? You should make sure there’s nothing left, not a mess.”

“Honestly, I agree with that, but you shouldn’t do that.”

“Why?”

Normally, I would agree with Shion’s opinion, but since it involves Eden, I am not easily convinced.

For Eden’s safety, everyone who touches Eden must be killed and torn apart, but what good will it be if those people are left alive? It’s similar to how I don’t listen to people who try to mess with Zion even when Zion tries to stop them.

“I don’t know if Eden debuted at any other time, right?”

“Of course.”

“Since he debuted, the attention and attention paid to Eden is different. If he kills the criminals in such a situation, there will definitely be a problem with him.”

“Ok…”

“Of course, you can kill them with a gap of a few years, but think differently.”

“How?”

“The other person is a Seoul National University student. Wouldn’t it be more painful to be alive than to die for people who were expelled from one of Korea’s leading universities due to their one-time sexual desire, were marked with a red line, and fell to the bottom of society?”

“Hmm.”

Zion had a point. Because sometimes it’s more despairing to live and suffer than to die.

If you were at the bottom from the beginning, if you were once a student at Seoul National University, you are at least in the top 1% of society in terms of academic background. At the very least, if a person who could be looking for a good job had to look for a job at a small or medium-sized business, there would be no such shame and despair.

On the one hand, I thought it would be a good idea to throw him in the Horizon and give him a hard time, but since we couldn’t kill him, it would have been difficult to go missing or go missing. As Eden makes his social debut, such problems arise.

No, I don’t mind getting criticized for that, but I don’t like Eden getting criticized. If it weren’t for that, Eden would have torn down and killed all those who cursed and sexually harassed her.

“I will take care of that. I will gather evidence and do my best to not only expel you from school, but also draw a red line and ruin your life.”

“Okay, I’ll ask you a favor.”

“Under other circumstances, it would be easier to punish Eden because he is a person with special abilities. Since he will be confiscated, he can be imprisoned for sure.”

Severe punishment is still imposed on crimes targeting people with limited abilities. The same applies to crimes committed by people with special abilities, as well as crimes committed against people with special abilities.

Even if the former is true, I wonder why the latter is so, because there are cases where people with special abilities are oppressed and used to commit crimes. Thanks to this, it is very easy to control your opponent if you decide to do so.

It can be said that there is no such thing as probation for crimes subject to ability. You can easily get away with minor crimes that are serious enough to get you caught, but it is safe to say that if you go into criminal or civil matters for a reason, you will almost certainly end up in prison unless there is an agreement.

These bastards will come to their senses only if they get screwed. I think it was a bit too much for someone to ruin their life because of something they did while drunk, but people who do things like that while drunk shouldn’t rise to the top of society in the first place.

Anyway, Zion and I took care of that, and Eden soon returned from MT. She didn’t seem to be in a good mood because she had a lot going on there.

“Are you okay, Eden?”

“Yeah, it’s okay.”

“I insulted my daughter. She must have been a happy MT after a long time, but she ruined it…”

“But when it was fun, it was fun in its own way. Don’t worry too much.”

The college life I was looking forward to was ruined by those bastards, and when I see Eden in a bad mood, I feel like I want to rip those bastards’ heads off.

But bear with it for now. They said that Zion would handle it, but if you think about it later, it could cause damage to Eden. No, this is the victim, but it sucks that we have to restrain ourselves because of what happens next.

Anyway, the problem progressed quickly. The police were there at the time and Eden had secured CCTV and evidence based on his testimony, so they were unable to steal the money. And naturally, the parents of the sex offenders are contacting me to the point where my cell phone is on fire.

There were cases where they said they would somehow reach an agreement, but on the other hand, there were some who sued Eden for criminal mischief because he was injured while subduing them.

“Look at those bastards struggling to survive, even though they’re someone’s son.”

“You can meet them, but you can just chew on them. The law firm will take care of everything anyway, so what are you going to do?”

“I need to see those bastards face to face. I’ll meet them first.”

It goes into a three-way meeting. First, since the perpetrators were booked without detention, they were initially arrested and detained, and then released, so they were able to meet face to face at a separate location.

That side also hired a lawyer and brought in someone to try to cover it up somehow, but this side is full of lawyers who are just like Jeon Gwan-ye. Some people were hired by Shion, but others came from Eden’s agency, Fashion Art Entertainment, and the Cheonmu Association. Thanks to this, even lawyers are over 20.

“This is the father of the victim, Eden Choi.”

“This is a dirty place, so let’s end the conversation quickly.”

I sat down in my seat, deliberately shaking. At least the rapists had their heads down and didn’t look very good, as if they were aware of their crime, but that was just for show since their lives were likely to end anyway. An apology after being beaten is not a sincere apology.

First, there are four people who committed a crime, three of them are men and the remaining one is a woman. 성범죄인데 여자가 왜 있나 했는데 저년이 에덴이 MT 룸메 카드키를 훔쳐다가 저 새끼들한테 줬다고.

It seems like they were very deliberate in handing it over in a place without CCTV, but upon inspection, that girl’s fingerprints, which were unlikely to be there, were found on the card key, and it was caught. Maybe I was drunk and didn’t think about that part.

The children’s parents first bowed their heads and offered an apology. He seemed to be speaking politely, but since he has no intention of accepting the apology and only wants punishment, I don’t see any value in responding.

“First, I’m really sorry for what the kids did. We gave them a bad education.”

“I don’t really care. After all, aren’t college students adults? We’ll do it according to the law, according to the law. Since we committed a crime, shouldn’t we just send them to prison?”

“That’s a bit… It’s true that the kids did something wrong, but aren’t they still students? Moreover, they did it by mistake without realizing it…”

“I don’t like saying I did it because I was drunk. If I did it, I did it. How can I be excused for drinking? No, if I did something like that because I was drunk, I should be punished, so I can’t do it again.”

As I speak firmly, the rapists’ complexions become even paler and the children’s parents also harden their faces.

But what can you say, you idiots? I barely escaped their place, but you’re doing this because you don’t want to get punished? Oh, if I hadn’t really been harmed by Eden, I would have laughed and torn up even my parents.

“Hmm, but wasn’t both parties at fault in this case? First, my children were attacked by your daughter and were injured, and we received separate medical certificates for them.”

“Oh, yes. Then you should file a complaint. But that won’t change the fact that your sons and daughters are going to prison, right?”

“Your daughter may also have problems in college.”

“Would you rather become a sex offender and get expelled from school?”

In the middle of a conversation, the guy who was the father of another child, probably annoyed by my tone, stood up and shouted.

“No, this person is real!!!!”

“What are you complaining about?”

“Kids can drink and make mistakes. Are you trying to ruin their lives with that? Are you a human bastard?!”

“I don’t know if you’re a human, but I’m a father too. Just like you came here to take sides with those guys, calling them bastards, I came here because of the damage my child suffered. I don’t ‘I don’t care about ruining your children’s situation, and I don’t care about almost ruining my child’s situation. It looks like there is no way?”

“No, that’s… Big. Anyway, it’s okay because there’s no problem, right?”

“If I touch it, does it cause any harm? There is also psychological damage from the situation itself, where I almost got raped out of nowhere. If I didn’t think about that, wouldn’t I be living in peace?”

“This bastard!!!!!”

He grabbed me by the collar and lifted me up. But I wasn’t scared of their threats, so I watched leisurely.

The situation calmed down a little as people around me tried to stop me, but my thoughts didn’t change at all. The other side also talks a little about my attitude, but pulls out another card.

“I understand that your daughter is a model.”

“So?”

“If it becomes known to the media, the model’s image will suffer… Moreover, it hasn’t been long since she debuted, right?”

Aha, are you aiming for that direction?

I think it is definitely the most powerful hand that can be displayed over there. No matter how bad it is, the damage to Eden is the biggest problem and something we need to pay attention to. Regarding that part, I will first have to ask Eden what he intends to do.

“If it comes out that way, let’s coordinate this and come back. See you next time.”

“Yes, I’m waiting for good news.”

The good news is shit. The only difference is whether it is a scorching hell or a freezing hell, but the results will not change much. In the first place, when the rapist’s parents are trying to get good news, it’s nothing but bullshit.

Why do we, the victims, have to make concessions? Are you crazy? Since the children are like that, I guess the parents are like that too.

When I returned home, I consulted with Eden and Zion separately. Legally, it is possible to stop them, but doing so would make these bastards look easy, and while they were talking about ruining Eden’s image by making the matter public, I was so sick that I was on the verge of passing away.

Wow, these bastards. I thought Eden was the only person who mentally dealt damage to me who wasn’t even a roadie, but it’s really crazy that other people can do it too.

“I guess I’ll have to do some digging and raise a building.”

“Oh, my mother, who said she was legally threatened, started saying ugly things!!!!”

“Mother, please leave it to me to incinerate the other person’s identity. I will erase all traces of the person on the computer network and make them a non-existent person.”

“Do you need something like memory manipulation?”

“Even Eve and Korma’s mom!!!!”

It’s the sound of the perpetrator’s family members talking to the victim. I saved it instead of killing it, and it seems like it’s crawling up.

I kind of understand it. I studied hard and got into one of the best universities in Korea, but I got expelled, and my life was ruined. Whether it’s you or your parents, you’ll want to stop them as much as possible. But that was it, and he had to be punished for the crime he committed.

“It is true that the image of the victim, not the perpetrator, is damaged.”

“If you say you almost suffered attempted rape, there are some crazy people who doubt your virginity…”

When a controversy arises and becomes a topic of gossip, awareness increases through noise marketing, but in this case, on the contrary, the damage is greater than the awareness.

So, we have two options. Are you going to keep pushing and deal with it legally without worrying about it, or are you going to just kill them all and bury them quietly?

“Hmm… How about we make a compromise and handle it quietly legally?”

“Because their lives depend on it, they would hope for an agreement, even if it means making it public.”

“Then you just have to let them know that those who make it public will have their lives ruined even more.”

“Hmm?”

“It comes out that way because you think there’s no end. But what if that’s not really the bottom?”

[There is a floor at the bottom!!!!]

“Keter, is he a duelist or something?”

Anyway, I think I know what Eden is thinking.

If the problem is that Eden’s image will be damaged by making it public, it will be damaged if the other party knows that this is so huge that they cannot make it public. If it’s something like a pine board that can be broken in moderation, no fool would throw a punch knowing it’s clear that it’s just a block of steel.

“Then we’ll have to meet at the Cheonmu Association next time.”

“Dad, are you going too?”

“Because that would be the easiest to persuade.”

I set a date and place for them to meet separately. You might think it’s strange that we’re meeting at the Cheonmu Association, but one of the lawyers in charge of this case is from the Cheonmu Association, so there shouldn’t be a problem. And although Eden hasn’t worked there yet, she is also a promotional model for the Cheonmu Association.

I sent you a text message saying we should have a good conversation, so I guess you’ll want to reach an agreement. In reality, it’s a story about them being screwed.

I’m really looking forward to the day I can meet them again.
