Chapter 286: A feast of minnow fry (2)
Rohan was having a meal with leading ruling party lawmakers in the National Assembly.
Since it is a public restaurant, of course there is no security whatsoever.
There were a lot of people who were listening intently to what was being said.
The ruling party lawmaker was impressed.
“As expected, Congressman Rohan’s appetite is incredible. I am always amazed when I see him. Surely he doesn’t eat like that every meal?”
“I need to consume at least 40,000 calories a day.”
“Wow, I heard that even world swimming champions burn less than 20,000 kcal. That’s really amazing.”
“The amount of energy consumed here is quite a lot.”
Rohan responded by pretending to tap his head with his finger, and the ruling party lawmaker seemed convinced.
‘He is an unprecedented genius who completed a manned exploration of Mars on his own, so his brain energy consumption must be at a level that mankind has never experienced before.’
Others who were listening also agreed with Rohan’s answer.
The achievements that Rohan had made on his own, such as nuclear fusion, particle clustering, semi-metal processing technology, and space probes, were so great that they themselves were convinced without a doubt.
In fact, Rohan told two lies.
It’s not just 40,000 kcal that you eat, it’s much more, and the body consumes much more energy than the head.
He’s a physical person, not a brain person.
When necessary, I just repeat the lines that Freedom recites.
Just like right now.
“The protests demanding the withdrawal of the $1 trillion in public aid are so strong that even the government is in a difficult position.”
“That’s none of my business. It’s none of my business.”
“Why is it irrelevant? No one would think so. Isn’t Representative Rohan the eldest son of Representative Ha Soo-young and Gongmyeong?”
“Even so, it’s not like I have anything to say about it.”
“Is Rep. Rohan also in favor of a trillion dollar aid package for the public?”
The tension of those listening increases even more.
Rohan wiped his mouth with a napkin after cleaning the last plate.
Even their appearance was elegant and sexy, and the expressions of the female lawmakers and female aides became more relaxed.
“Representative Jeong Chil-won, it is truly embarrassing to see you elicit the desired response while asking the wrong question to begin with.”
“Uh, I didn’t mean anything else. And I don’t know what you mean by “bad question.”
“Do you agree with the $1 trillion aid? That’s not what you’re asking. I’ll ask the opposite. Rep. Jeong Chil-won, if we could buy Shin Dae-hankuk for $1 trillion and make it a defense zone against the North, what would you do?”
“That’s a different case.”
“How is it different?”
“Anyway, the cases are different.”
“Representative Jeong Chil-won.”
Rohan gave a friendly smile.
At that moment, Rep. Jeong felt as if his mind was spinning.
It’s like being a frog in front of a snake…
“I don’t talk to people who are unreasonable.”
“What? No, Representative Rohan! No matter what, I’m a four-term member of the National Assembly. Isn’t that too harsh?”
“Because each case is different.”
Rohan got up from his seat.
After briefly looking around at the people watching with bated breath, Rohan left the restaurant.
Meanwhile, as soon as Rohan disappeared, Jeong Chil-won’s expression suddenly sank as if he had never been excited.
He muttered quietly so no one could hear.
“See? You’re still reacting?”
He was a former prosecutor and member of the National Assembly.

Seongryeol Jeon, who met Ha Suyeong for the first time in a long time, immediately started to express his worries.
“I don’t care where or how you spend your money, CEO. I personally think that China is worth investing that much in. But the atmosphere these days is pretty ominous.”
“What is it like?”
“I think there are some guys who want to take this opportunity to shake you up.”
“I’ve been giving too much to the Navy, haven’t I? There must have been a lot of people who felt greedy after seeing that. I just kept it a secret until now.”
“Honestly, even if the US is behind you, isn’t this an internal matter? If you suddenly make up some innocent crime to arrest you one day, it’s not like the US can help you, right?”
“No, I’ll help you.”
“Is this interference in internal affairs?”
“Yes. I will help you.”
Jeon Seong-ryeol was a little surprised
“How? Maybe send some CIA agents to take out the balls of those guys you’re after?”
“Hey, America has face, so they wouldn’t do something like that.”
“Then how……”
“A naval blockade will be imposed immediately, US Marines will land in Busan and Incheon ports, and airborne troops will be dropped throughout Seoul?”
“…….”
“And that’s just the beginning.”
“I find it hard to believe… Does America value you that much? To the point of supporting you, going so far as to invade Korea, let alone interfere in its internal affairs?”
I know that the United States values Ha Soo-young, but I think the measures I just mentioned are going beyond launching a preemptive nuclear strike on China and Russia.
“And there are those who are adding fuel to the fire of the $1 trillion withdrawal protests, but I don’t think there’s anyone who intentionally lit the fire in the first place.”
“Is this a natural public opinion reaction?”
“Wouldn’t it be a pain in the ass if your cousin bought land? Especially when it’s worth a trillion dollars?”
“Anyway, don’t worry. I wonder if I’m the only one who’s been worrying about this for no reason. Even if I get caught by the prosecutors this time, they’ll rescue me quickly, right?”
“Yes. If you get caught, just relax and enjoy the atmosphere before you leave.”
“I was a little nervous at first, but now I think I can enjoy it leisurely.”
That was when.
I got a call from Vice President Wang Se-kyung.
“Just a moment. Yes, Vice President.”
– Mr. Chairman, the prosecution has just stormed into the hospital.
“Oh, are you going to start from there?”
-They even brought an arrest warrant? It looks like they’re planning on arresting me no matter what. What should I do?
It’s not that I’m afraid of things like arrest.
When the hospital is empty, I worry that the grim reapers might take advantage of my absence to take away patients.
“The messengers won’t do anything strange just because I’m away for a moment. They made a non-aggression promise with me.”
-Still, I feel uneasy about leaving the seat when it’s not my will.
“Just tell him to wait a moment. I’m going there now.”
-Okay.
Seongryeol Jeon, who had been listening, asked with concern.
“Did the prosecution attack the hospital? On what grounds?”
“What’s the big deal about excuses and such when there’s no crime? Just arrest them and attach whatever you want to them. I know because I’ve done it many times.”
Ha Su-young got up calmly.
“I’ll go get a drink and come back.”
***
Ha Soo-young arrived at the hospital and discovered that the prosecution’s vehicles and many police cars were parked in front of the hospital.
Reporters were also there, but there were no broadcast cameras in sight.
“This is CEO Ha Su-young.”
“It’s Ha Soo-young.”
As soon as Ha-young appeared, the reporters held their breath and took pictures without stopping.
But no reporter dared point the microphone at him.
Ha Su-yeong, who had been looking around as if observing prey, calmly entered the hospital.
Investigators were seen everywhere in the first floor lobby, and medical staff and patients were passing by with anxious expressions.
The investigators were startled when they saw Ha Soo-young and busily reported to their superiors via radio.
Ha Soo-young used the emergency stairs instead of the elevator to get to Wang Se-kyung’s dedicated VVIP hospital room, which he used as the vice president’s office.
As I entered, I saw a prosecutor in his 40s sitting at a table, seemingly at ease.
It’s a familiar face.
“No, who is this? Aren’t you Prosecutor Ko Yoon-moo?”
Wang Se-gyeong asked nervously.
“Is this the prosecutor that the chairman knows?”
“Yes, he is the one who put a lot of effort into destroying the White Scotch gang at the Jeju District Prosecutors’ Office. I also gave him a little bit at that time.”
“Oh, that guy Jin Seok-hyun from Latte Group?”
“Yes, he made a great contribution to getting that guy convicted and was transferred to Seoul.”
Go Yoon-moo tried hard to maintain a calm smile.
Looking at the situation, it seemed that Ha Soo-young was unaware that she had fallen into the shadow of the Latte Group.
‘Even senior Im Tak-jeong doesn’t know yet, so how could Assemblyman Ha Su-yeong know?’
Of course, my coming here today had nothing to do with the Latte Group.
“I also remember our good relationship in the past. At that time, destroying the drug organization together with you was an unforgettable and valuable experience for me. I am sorry that we have to face such an unpleasant incident today.”
Go Yoon-moo had no intention of antagonizing Ha Soo-young.
If possible, I would also like to receive his sponsorship later.
However, Ha Su-yeong did not get along with any other prosecutors besides Im Tak-jeong and Jo Seong-man.
Even though the inspectors were desperate to get his sponsorship, he completely ignored them.
‘Congressman, you should know how much discontent there is within the prosecution right now. For your own sake as well.’
He felt he was best suited to convey his dissatisfaction in a gentle manner.
“Actually, I really didn’t want to come here. Assemblyman Ha Soo-young helped me solve the Jeju Island White Scotch incident and was a great help in allowing me to come up to Seoul. I owe you a great favor, so how could I have the decency to come here and pressure you with bad things?”
“Hmm. Thank you for thinking so.”
“But I was worried that if other prosecutors came to the hospital instead of me, they would cause unnecessary harm and be rude. If someone had to come anyway, I thought it would be better for Chairman Wang Se-gyeong and Suyeong Hospital if I came, so I insisted. Please understand.”
“Did you just come by messenger?”
“As expected, you’re quick-witted. That’s right.”
The charges brought forward were violation of the Medical Act, embezzlement, and breach of trust.
But that was just an excuse he had forced himself to make in order to contact Ha Soo-young, who he had never met before.
Of course, Go Yoon-moo simply volunteered to be a messenger.
“Tell me. Who are you?”
“I can’t tell you yet. I can only tell you once you give me a definite answer.”
“Then tell me what your business is.”
“Please allow us to use the Particle Assembly Command Device cancer treatment machine. If you promise us that, we will quietly walk away with an empty box, and in a few days, we will announce a declaration of innocence and an apology.”
“The cost of one session of the Ipjimyeong cancer treatment machine is 1 billion won. Of course, you want it for free, right?”
“Most patients don’t pay much for their treatment anyway, right? The hospital welfare department provides support for everything.”
“Have you registered on the waiting list for treatment?”
“Not yet. I understand the cancer was discovered not too long ago.”
Ha Soo-young said as if it was nothing.
“Then tell me to register right now. Why are you taking such a long shot when you can just follow the proper procedures? If you keep showing off like this, I’ll dive in without even realizing it.”
“Wanggak? Dive?”
Go Yoon-moo wondered what this meant.
Ha Soo-young muttered quietly to herself.
“Ah, if he suddenly comes in and shows me his dive angle, I dive in without realizing it. It’s a habit that’s been around for so long that I can’t really break it, but it’s become an instinct now.”
