Chapter 359 The Fear of Power (1)


    The Presidential Security Service, a unique professional security agency and special force agency responsible for the safety and safety of the President and other family members.


    Although its light has faded a lot recently, this ce, which also yed a role as a key center of power in the past, still boasts an enormous prestige and prestige while handling and handling numerous confidential information as an institution under the direct control of the president.


    Each member of the agency protects the entire Blue House, which is filled with highly trained members of the armed forces and talented people with excellent technology and intelligence, protects key personnel, and is the only one legally permitted to carry and use firearms, except for the military and police. The Presidential Security Service, a national institution.


    However, Yoo Hyun-sang, head of the National Security Agency, who is now in charge of this organization, was dragged into the president''s office without knowing why and faced him with a stunned face sitting in front of him with a hard face. With themander of the capital''s defense and the director of the National Intelligence Service, who entered with the same pale expression as himself.


    “The reason I called must have already beenmunicated to the chief of staff, right?”


    “That''s right.”


    “Yes.....”


    The three of them entered the Blue House after understanding the situation to some extent.


    So, knowing how serious the situation is now and how angry the President Jeon Chan sitting in front of them is, the three couldn''t even look at his eyes properly.


    “I won’t ask about anything else superfluous. We have too little time to care about who is responsible and how it happened.”


    An unprecedented situation in history where a rtive of the current president of the Republic of Korea and his precious granddaughter were kidnapped by an unknown gang. The head of the National Security Agency or the head of the National Intelligence Service, who was directly responsible for this, flinched momentarily at the words of President Jeon Jeon-chan, but he did not care and spoke to them.


    “Report everything you have learned so far.”


    It''s been less than an hour since I checked the rted situation. However, befitting the director of the National Intelligence Service and the chief of the National Security Agency, who deal with all ssified information and intelligence in the Republic of Korea, they had grasped more information than expected in that short period of time.


    “As far as we confirmed, those who kidnapped Miss Chaeyeon were confirmed to be members of a gang known as the Dongmyeongpa, which is known to operate in the Gangnam area of Seoul. We are currently taking over and analyzing detailed intelligence about the organization from the police, and we are still in the process of figuring out their exact purpose.”


    “We found out that the CCTVs at the ce where Miss Chaeyeon was kidnapped were disabled in advance, so we are urgently collecting and checking the surrounding ck boxes. If we put together the information we have currently obtained...”


    The information confirmed while exposing even themunication records in that short time. Among them, President Jeon Ki-chan instantly put on a bewildered expression when a fact he did not know came out of the chief of security.


    “Chaeyeon went to her boyfriend’s room to y...?”


    “ording to the results of checking themunication records, it is.”


    At the very end, the message Chaeyeon exchanged with her best friend.


    Showing a copy of the message written in it, the chief security officer continued the story with a slightly apologetic tone.


    “There has been a recent spike in cases of Chaeyeon deliberately ostracizing her bodyguards, and this seems to have been the main reason. We talked to each other as close friends, but looking at it now, it doesn’t seem like that.”


    “Ummm.....”


    A record of the messages written and sent by Chaeyeon. The word ‘boyfriend'' written on it. Looking at it, several keywords began to pass through President Jeon Ki-chan''s head.


    ‘Chaeyeon..... Boyfriend... Homemade... Homework for the two of us...?''


    A situation that I dare not tolerate as a grandfather. However, Lee Chae was young in his eyes when he confirmed the identity information of the existence of the boyfriend.


    “This guy who says he’s the boyfriend... Does something look familiar?”


    A picture I''ve seen somewhere. Then, as if waiting, the director of the National Intelligence Service intervened and nodded to President Jeon Ki-chan''s muttering.


    “That''s right. This person had a history of being almost kidnapped by the Japanese government just a few months ago.”


    Gando: An illegal kidnapping operation by the Japanese intelligence agency that wasrgely secretly carried out in Korea. As a result, President Jeon Ki-chan also strongly protested and conceived of direct measures, so he muttered with his eyes wide open as if he was surprised that the memory was vivid.


    “Huh..... A guy like this is dating our Chaeyeon? Nobody even knows?”


    He may be superior in ability, but in terms of appearance, Jae-gyun is so poor that no one can be liked by him. The fact that Chae-yeon identally got caught up in this kidnapping while he was with him made President Jeon Chan feel unknown annoyance.


    ‘This is why I nag you to be careful with men, but...''


    President Jeon Chan-chan, who went around telling Chae-yeon that there is no man you can trust in this world. It was an advice given out of love by a grandfather who cherishes his granddaughter, but hepletely ignored his advice and acted on his own, shaking hisplicated head thinking about the woman who eventually got into an ident.


    “A talented person who had excellent talent in virtual reality technology and almost was forcibly kidnapped by a foreign intelligence agency, and the granddaughter of the current president were kidnapped at the same time... Isn’t this amon situation?”


    “That''s right.”


    The two people answer the president''s question at the same time as if they had promised. And they spoke in unison with serious faces.


    “Current estimates by NIS analysts suggest that another government may be behind it. It seems that Japan will not try to do such unreasonable things in session, and it is judged that it may have been instigated by China, Russia... or North Korea.”


    “Considering that Miss Jeon Chae-yeon’s identity has never been exposed to the general public or the media, this case is understood to have a greater purpose and a malicious conspiracy, unlike ordinary kidnappings. In order to kidnap the family members of the incumbent president and use this as a means of intimidation in order to achieve their ownrger goals...”


    Dongmyeong-pa''s act of treason against a country that will never be forgiven for what it has done this time. It is an act no different from an interest coup. Of course, President Jeon Chan, who knew all about how this happened through Argos, knew that the story these two were talking about was nothing more than an absurd fantasy novel, but he didn''t say anything. Rather, he agreed with them and nodded his head.


    The only thing that mattered to him now was to safely rescue his precious granddaughter by any means necessary.


    “Then, from what you think, all of this is being manipted behind the scenes by a country we don’t understand... What do you mean?”


    “From what we understand, yes.”


    “It is very likely.”


    The aftermath is too big for a normal criminal organization to deal with. So, when the two nodded at the words of President Jeon Chan, he pondered for a while and then called a person who hadn''t said anything.


    “Capital Defense Commander.”


    “lieutenant general! Cheoljoong Kim! Just give me orders!”


    Lieutenant General Kim Cheol-joong, themander of the capital''s defense, was listening to the whole situation as he stood with a stiff face next to the head of the bodyguard and the head of the National Intelligence Service. President Jeon Jeon-chan said to him like that.


    “You must have heard what the Director of the National Intelligence Service and the Director of the National Security Agency just said, right?”


    “That''s right!”


    “A situation has arisen that poses a serious threat to the security and national interests of the Republic of Korea. Under normal circumstances, I would not have borrowed the power of the military, but unless I could confirm the exact purpose of these people, I decided that preventive preemptive measures were necessary to prevent additional risks. So I called themander.”


    “...?”


    The three of them cast a puzzled look as if asking what they were talking about. To them, President Jeon Chan dered.


    “From the present time, we will regard the criminal organization Dongmyeong-pa as a group of traitors with the purpose of colluding with enemy countries to destroy the constitutional order of the Republic of Korea and cause serious harm to national interests.”


    “yes....?”


    “Now that word...”


    Strictly speaking, the police should intervene. However, President Jeon Ki-chan was looking at this issue from a slightly more special perspective.


    “As of this time, I will use all the powers the Constitution andws grant me as President to root out this chatan group quickly, urately and thoroughly. All operations carried out from now on will be treated as strict military secrets, and the Capital Defense Command, the National Intelligence Service, and the Presidential Security Service must all cooperate to find and punish all personnel involved in this transfer by mobilizing all avable means and methods. ”


    It is not a slightly radical criminal organization, but a spy group aimed at overthrowing the Republic of Korea and destroying the constitutional order.


    “If you refuse to surrender and resist, you can kill all involved. Please do everything in your power to safely rescue my granddaughter and her abductees.”


    That''s how the cost of some people''s foolish choices started toe back.


    With a huge aftermath that no one can handle.


    * * *


    A month-long neighborhood in Seoul.


    Jae-gyun and Chae-yeon were imprisoned in a ce full of empty houses and abandoned buildings that were all copsing.


    “I’m sorry, Chaeyeon. It''s just because of me...”


    Jaekyun muttered an apology and apologized for the stretch despite being left on a cold concrete floor while being tied together. He was more anxious because he was in a dangerous situation where they had no idea what would happen to them in the future, but strangely, Chaeyeon was so calm.


    “Don''t be too sorry. It''s not that you did anything wrong, it''s because Tae-soo is aplete madman.”


    Chae-yeon heard from Jae-gyun that all of this seemed to be the work of Tae-soo. And she believed it so easily.


    “I was obsessed with it, but I didn’t expect it toe this far. More than that, I think I heard that Tae-soo lives well at home, but to think he had something to do with these scary men..... If he had epted this confession, it would have been a real big deal, right?”


    Chae-yeon is relieved saying that it''s fortunate that she didn''t date her as if she didn''t know at all. Even Jae-gyun asked with a very absurd face at her reaction.


    “Chae Yeon-ah, but is that important right now?”


    Tough men who left their arms and legs tied with ropes in an abandoned house and disappeared somewhere. Jae-gyun''s face was distorted with nervousness because he had to untangle the rope and run away as soon as possible because he didn''t know when they woulde back and what to do with them.


    “Somehow, I have to untie this rope and find a way to escape...”


    Jaekyun, who can’t even lift a finger, struggles to somehow. However, he suddenly froze at the strange smell of shampoo wafting in front of him.


    “Jaekyun, can you see my headband?”


    Chae-yeon rolled her body and came right in front of Jae-gyun. Seeing the back of Chae-yeon, who hade right in front of his eyes, and Jae-gyun''s smell of hers, his head went nk for an instant.


    “Jaekyun? Jaegyun? Are you listening to me?”


    Jae-gyun, who had been in a daze for a while, suddenly came to his senses at Chae-yeon''s call. He immediately responded in surprise.


    “Uh... uh! I''m listening. what''s the matter?”


    “If you look closely, there is a strange switch on my headband. Can you see it?”


    “Switch?”


    Chaeyeon''s headband in the shape of a w pin, which is just trending. However, Jae-kyun, who looked very closely, was able to find a very exquisitely hidden switch there.


    “See Bo! There''s a strange pressure here...”


    “Yes there. Can you press that down?”


    “what....?”


    Chaeyeon''s insane request to suddenly press the switch on the headband. Jaekyun made a stupid expression for a moment, then looked down at his arms and said.


    “But, my hands...”


    “You can do it with your mouth, with your mouth.”


    “With this mouth...?”


    “uh. Do it with your mouth.”


    A situation where a huge misunderstanding (?) would ur if you were just listening to the conversation. Jaekyun buried his face in Chaeyeon''s hair with a blushing face and wrestled with her for a long time before pressing the switch and a small red LED from her headband began to glow.


    “All right! What kind of light came on?”


    “okay? thank god. Then you can just wait.”


    Chae-yeon is relieved when the lightes on. Jaekyun, taken aback by her words, asked with a meaningful look in his eyes.


    “Chae Yeon-ah, what the hell is that?”


    “that? A location tracking device.”


    “A location tracking device...?”


    “Yeah. Now we just have to wait.”


    Seeing her smiling and rxing even when she was kidnapped and hiding a location tracking device in her headband, Jaekyun realized.


    He said that the girl in front of him might be more insane than he imagined.
