286.

#I hoped it wasn’t so

I thought about it from the beginning.

Until now, I thought I had been abandoned in the rock carving. It was natural. As soon as I came to Cheonsan, I was judged unfit for the job and had to live like a wild dog.

A life that wouldn’t have been strange if it died at any time.

But there was no contact from the rock carving.

It was so bad that I even felt like I had been abandoned.

But was that really the case?

If that was the case, would it have been necessary for Zhuge Shang and the elders to put in so much effort in training the agents?

No, it won’t be.

He must have been watching me, locked in an invisible frame.

If not, he wouldn’t have come all the way to my house in a secluded place on the slopes of Mt. Gomi and given me the mission.

So, number 12.

He was watching me closely, and he was a man with skills comparable to that of a clan leader who also had free access to Cheonsan.

And in Jang Seo’s mind, there was only one person who met those conditions.

I just hope and hope that it’s not him.

Peeing!

I turn my head to the side at the faint noise and see fireworks shooting up into the sky in the distance.

It’s a signal flare.

Around Shinwoldang, where Elder Lee was currently staying, Myo Chae-kyung and some of the warriors following her were hiding.

Their role was simple.

Confirming who is meeting with Elder Lee.

I added one more thing here.

If your guess is correct, you set off a red firecracker. If not, you set off a blue firecracker.

And the result is… … .

Phew!

It spread out like a red firecracker in full bloom.

I hoped and hoped that wasn’t the case.

Ominous feelings are never wrong.

I closed my eyes tightly against the blowing wind.

‘Jang-seo. Wherever you go, you are my family. So don’t be discouraged no matter what anyone says.’

‘If you can’t stand it, come back. I’ll leave your seat for you.’

The one who can come and go from Cheonsan at any time, the one who taught and guided him for ten years.

“Jang-hyung was right! The person that Elder Lee is meeting right now is… …!”

“The head of the counterintelligence unit, who also serves as a private interest.”

My closed eyes slowly opened.

That’s it.

He was the one who gave me the mission, No. 12.

The counterintelligence unit that catches spies was the main force that protected and trained agents.

In reality, they themselves don’t know anything.

There was no way back from the beginning.

There is only a way forward.

therefore.

“egg plant.”

Jang’s steps led towards the eight-story, splendid skyscraper at the bottom of the hill.

We’re heading to the Counterintelligence Corps headquarters.

* * *

– Cheonga (千家) Shinwoldang (神月堂).

“You… … !”

Meanwhile, Elder Lee Cheon-o-san was startled when he saw the person entering the room.

Because his appearance, with his black hat off and mask down, was so familiar.

“Haha! It’s been a while, Elder.”

“Aren’t you the head of the counterintelligence unit?”

The head of the counterintelligence unit and the head of the private sector.

Honam-ah, who wears a golden sword on his waist and laughs heartily.

Elder Lee also knew about it well.

If you only look at his rank, he is a mere 4th-grade nobleman who is not even comparable to others, but his skills are at a level that even the elders cannot ignore, and he was even the teacher of the three princesses in the past.

“Were you the one who accused Noema of being a spy last time?”

“Rather than saying I was being pushed, I reported it because I felt suspicious. Haha!”

The elder’s face was strangely distorted.

I just found out.

No, I had no reason to hear it… … .

“I really didn’t know it was you.”

“Because he’s been under me for a long time, I know him better than anyone else.”

“That must be true. I heard Noema was from the counterintelligence unit.”

“Yes. It’s no different from me raising you.”

Elder Lee frowned at the light remark.

How many days have I spent without food or drink and suffering from illness because of that bastard I raised?

“Put aside the useless past. I have a clever plan to catch the brain.”

“Yes, strictly speaking, it is coming soon.”

“You’re not going to start spying on me with that ridiculous nonsense, are you?”

Gyeomsaik chuckled. Why not? That’s right. But he didn’t have the heart to add anything. What’s important is the evidence, not the bickering.

“As I was coming, it seemed like you had gathered quite a few warriors.”

“Huh, isn’t this proof of justice?”

What’s the purpose? Gyeomsaik snickered inwardly and replied as if agreeing with the request.

“That’s right. Suddenly becoming a vice-principal. No one wants that. But don’t make fun of Jang Yi-seo. It hurts a lot to get bitten by that guy. You know that very well, don’t you?”

“… … !”

The eyes of the elder and the servant opened wide.

Why don’t you know? Jang Seo-han has already torn me apart to the point where I’m completely torn to pieces.

“so?”

“Let me help you.”

“I don’t trust anyone who is just talking. Especially if they have already failed.”

“The warriors of Chilsogung Palace will be leaving soon after closing down.”

“… … Are you talking about the guys who entered the Manma Tomb? I heard that the relationship between Chilsogung and Noema has become distant?”

“Are you sure?”

Of course not. When Elder Lee questioned him with his eyes, Gyeomsaik smiled and answered.

“I will make sure that Chilsogung never comes to the synagogue again.”

“Hmm.”

The elder’s stiff face relaxed a little. It wasn’t a bad suggestion. But it wasn’t enough to satisfy him.

But.

“I will also bring you evidence that will completely destroy Jang Yi Seo.”

“What, what?!”

A light flashed in the elder’s eyes. Complete ruin. Could there be a more perfect word than this?

“Just bring me solid evidence, and I’ll give you whatever you want.”

“Haha! What else could a counterintelligence chief want? All he wants is to catch and imprison spies. Please use it well and on time. Then I will trust you.”

Gyeomsaik smiled faintly and went outside.

Elder Lee and the servant looked at each other with bewildered hearts.

*

Gyeomsaik came outside and took a deep breath while looking at the already dark night sky.

The surrounding area was filled with warriors patrolling with torches, making it look like an imperial palace.

They were dispatched by the leaders of Cheonsan.

“Can we stop the brainwashing?”

“Shh! That’s nonsense. I said it’s all just bubbles.”

Let’s take a quick look at the warriors. The warriors, who look like boys, look frightened even before they fight.

At this, Gyeomsaik let out a sly laugh.

“You’ve definitely grown a lot, Jang-seo. You’ve become a big shot that we have to look up to now.”

His expression is full of warmth, like that of a father looking after his grown child.

It was a time of change.

It seems like only yesterday that he was a wandering wild dog. Now, many people revere him.

Can’t you tell just by looking at the omnipotent power of Elder Lee Jang-ro Cheon Oh-san stamping his feet over there?

so.

“It’s a shame. I have to put you down the throats of those people.”

Gyeomsaik felt bitter. He first met Jang Yiseo when he was just eighteen, like those boys.

‘That guy is number 103?!’

At that time, Jang Seo’s gaze was different from those boys’, it was scary and fierce.

In order to avoid suspicion, he was left in a cave for several years, and he lived as a perfect wild dog.

If I hadn’t heard about it beforehand, I would never have guessed that he was an agent.

‘Would you like to go together? If we go together, you won’t have to starve.’

That’s how Jang became a counterintelligence agent.

From then on, it was just the same old days that you see everywhere.

‘Is it enough to just catch the author?’

A year of some awkwardness.

‘Jang Yi-seo, you little punk, aren’t you doing it right!’

This girl was stingy with her mistakes.

‘Daeju. I’m going to catch that kid today.’

Three years of evolving into a headache.

‘Hey, everyone stop that kid!’

Four years of wrinkles just piling up.

‘Daeju. Jintae went to the goal today. Are you just going to leave it like this?’

‘Take off your armband. I’m going to cut that bastard’s throat.’

Five years of unity under the name of the Counterintelligence Corps.

‘Jang I-seo.’

‘Take control!’

Six years without the need for words.

‘That cub.’

Seven years of just laughter.

‘You too, Daeju, should get married. When you have a baby, I’ll give you a lot of money. Two coins.’

‘Get out, you little shit!’

Eight years of being a miserable family.

‘Jang Yi-seo? He’s such a d*ck. But if I had to choose a second person after me… … it would be him, after all. Tsk tsk.’

Gu-nyeon, who has become a special guy without realizing it.

and…….

【Give the mission to No. 103.】

The last ten years that I had to send off with my own hands.

‘Thank you for everything, my lord.’

It was obvious, but special.

It was long but short.

It was that kind of time.

The time spent with Jang Il-seo.

But I never thought it would end like this.

“Follow or fall in love. It’s a sad fate where you have no other choice. You fell in love and I’m following, so don’t hold back too much.”

Gyeomsaik changed his expression and started walking.

And as he walks down the crowded street, people wearing masks and black hats start to gather around him one by one.

There are not many of them, but their eyes are heavy and intense.

The first unit, considered the best even within the counterintelligence unit.

Among them are some crew members whose identities are unknown.

But behind the scenes, there are agents who follow only him, raised by Gyeomsaik in Cheonsan!

“The opponent is a mad dog.”

Gyeomsaik walks and speaks.

At this, a cold tension appears on the faces of the volunteers.

A man who was once a colleague and a legend within the counterintelligence unit.

“Never let your guard down. If you smell even a little bit, you will be bitten without mercy. Go back to the main building immediately and destroy the agent data.”

The agents nod with serious faces.

If you’re a mad dog, you know this well enough to make your teeth hurt.

If you show even the slightest opening, it’s only a matter of time before you get bitten.

It was at that time that their pace became somewhat faster.

“Daeju, we’re in big trouble!”

An agent approached like a shadow and gave an urgent verbal warning.

Gyeomsaik stood tall in the middle of the crowd at the market.

Amidst the chattering tones, a cold ominous feeling runs down my spine.

The corners of the mouth harden with cold sweat.

no way.

“The headquarters of the Counterintelligence Corps has been attacked!”

Thud! My heart fell out.

How is it already… … ?

“Has he already smelled it?”

At the agent’s desperate voice, Hyeonsai-ik let out a blank laugh with a bewildered face.

“No. That’s not what he smelled.”

Why didn’t I know?

The opponent is a crazy dog ​​named Jang Seo.

This is… … .

“That was our goal from the beginning!”

The vice-presidential election is bait.

It was their own rock carvings that were caught.

Jang Yi-seo was already waiting in front of the main building of the Counterintelligence Corps.

You’re only realizing it now.

Whoosh!

Gyeomsaik looked around with a scary look in his eyes. Then, he saw pure white birds hiding on the roofs all over the place.

‘Biryongdang?!’

It’s Myo Chae-kyung. She’s hidden here with her carefully selected elites.

Targeting myself from the beginning!

‘Were you waiting for me to contact Elder Lee?’

At that moment, my eyes lit up and I seemed to hear Jang Il-seo’s voice in my head.

‘Follow the lead. I’ll fall in love with you. But let’s not hold grudges against each other.’

“Jang Yi-seo… … Hehe. You bit me really well.”

Gyeomsaik frowned with a look of defeat on his face.

I never imagined that I would get bitten right away. But it doesn’t end like this.

It wasn’t just him who was called the best agent in the rock carving.

“All hands, prepare for battle.”

At Gyeomsaik’s sudden remark, the men formed a formation to protect him and drew their swords.

Then the birds on the roof start to fly at a fast speed.

And the moment they kick and fly.

“Hit!”

“Ohhoho! Catch him!”

Biryongdang and the Counterintelligence Corps.

No, the skirmish with the rock engraving agents has begun.
