NIS Agent Tears the Japanese Empire Episode 201

Clouds under the hill (1)

Black night.

A large crowd of soldiers and police officers gathered in front of the new building that was to announce the new beginning of the Government-General of Korea.

Everyone was in such a hurry that they even forgot to turn off the engines of the cars and trucks they rode in.

“Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!”

Commanding all the soldiers and police was Lieutenant General Shinnosuke Kikuchi, commander of the Korean Army (Japanese Army).

‘Damn it… … . I didn’t think things would get this big… … !’

He knew that the ghost of Gyeongseong would do something today.

But since I didn’t know exactly who it was targeting, I stayed locked up in Yongsan Base all day and let my subordinates protect me.

Thanks to this, Commander Shinnosuke was saved (although it is questionable whether the ghost was after him in the first place), but the Governor-General lost his life.

No, it wasn’t just the governor.

“This is… … . What the heck is this… … .”

Commander Shinnosuke passed the main gate of the new Government-General building in a hurry, and a huge tomb appeared in front of him.

To be exact, there were a lot of people lined up along the wall.

“… … .”

“A, Your Majesty… … ?”

“… … .”

Commander Shinnosuke snatched the gas lamp from his adjutant and looked around at the corpses lined up against the wall.

The bullet marks on the wall, the bullet marks on the body, and the black blood trail connecting the two told what had happened there.

“… … .”

“Your Majesty… … ? This is… … .”

“… … quiet.”

Commander Shinnosuke, who had been looking at the corpses for a long time, made eye contact with a familiar face among them and as if it were a lie, the strength in his legs gave out and he collapsed on the spot.

Then his adjutant and other chiefs of staff rushed over and supported the commander, making a fuss.

“dismissal!”

“Are you alright, Your Majesty?”

“Medical personnel! Quickly, Your Majesty… … .”

Everyone around him was making a fuss and trying to help Commander Shinnosuke, but the Commander himself shook off their helping hands and scolded them.

“Is now the time to take care of me? His Majesty the Governor is lying on that cold floor!”

“Huh? Ah… … .”

“Your Excellency the Governor… … .”

At Commander Shinnosuke’s rebuke, his adjutants and staff officers stood up awkwardly as if they were embarrassed and immediately called the soldiers.

“… … Bring His Excellency the Governor here.”

“Move quickly!”

Under the urging of their staff, the soldiers began to collect the bodies one by one with trembling expressions.

In the cold winter, the corpses left outside were frozen just enough for soldiers to move.

I don’t know if I should say it was thanks to this, but it saved me the trouble of moving the body.

but.

-bang!

“Kuaaaah!!!”

“What, what?!”

“what’s the matter!”

“Report! What’s going on?”

Suddenly there was an explosion.

Commander Shinnosuke quickly looked towards the vehicle.

But the car was fine.

“?!?!”

This time I looked at the soldiers.

Then, several soldiers with badly injured hands were seen rolling around on the ground.

That means… … .

“!!!”

Commander Shinnosuke’s gaze turned to the wall.

Then, a scene that was a mess in many ways came into view.

“… … .”

“Your Majesty… … . There is a bomb in the body… … !”

That was when.

Suddenly, there was a sound of something flying high into the sky behind me, and my back became bright.

-Pewpww… …Bam!

When Commander Shinnosuke looked back, red fireworks were beautifully embroidered across the black night sky.

-Pewpwwwww… … . God! No, bang!

Firecrackers shot high into the sky one after another, and Commander Shinnosuke looked up blankly.

His eyes contained a beautiful feast of fireworks that painted the night sky red.

“Eww!!!”

“My, my arm! My arm!!!”

“Kwaaah!”

“The conscript! Where is the conscript!”

On one side, people were dead, and on the other side, people were rolling around on the floor, making noises about whether they were alive or dead.

And on one side.

-Pewpwwww… … . Bang!

I was busy watching the unexpected fireworks.

“… … .”

“dismissal…….”

“… … .”

Commander Shinnosuke blankly watched the fireworks.

To be honest, he felt like he just wanted to watch fireworks for the rest of his life.

The current situation is very… … .

‘That’s terrible.’

In one day… no, in half a day, the supreme ruler of the Government-General of Korea, the king of Korea appointed by His Majesty the Emperor, died.

Even if it ended here, it would have been shocking enough, but the bigger problem was that the local collaborators who were now helping to rule colonial Joseon… … that is, those who the Joseon people called traitors were killed in large numbers.

To add a little empty words… … No, to be honest, the administrative power of the Governor-General is basically in ruins.

Of course, it cannot be said that it collapsed without a trace, as local administrative organizations still remained in various places, but since the most important central administrative organization had collapsed, it could be said that complete collapse was not far off.

‘If it were normal times, the home country would have foolishly sent the next governor and greatly strengthened the personnel… … .’

As you know, the political situation in mainland Japan is also a mess right now.

In a situation where the central focus of the Emperor had become blurred, the government had long since become ineffective, and the Army and Navy were watching each other closely.

How do you decide on a new governor in this situation?

‘It’s obvious it won’t work.’

Even if the government nominated a candidate, there were people who would argue over whether that person had a military background or not, and if so, whether he was in the Army or Navy.

And when a dispute like this arises, it won’t be resolved in a short period of time.

Especially now… … .

‘This would be even more so if the Army and Navy were to enter into a full-scale conflict… … .’

Even now, in Wonsan, the Navy and the Army are locked in a standoff, glaring at each other.

There’s no way to know if they’re fighting each other, shooting guns or cannons… … but if they are.

‘… … It’s the end.’

Commander Shinnosuke admired the beautiful fireworks that lit up the night sky.

As I gazed at the colorful fireworks decorating the pitch-black night sky, I briefly threw away all my worries, concerns, and anxieties.

There was no reason for his behavior.

I just did it because I felt like if I didn’t do it now, I might never see fireworks again.

-Boom! Boom! Boom!

The colorful fireworks sparkled in various shapes, as if someone had prepared them in advance.

The ghost of Gyeongseong would not have known that he would come and prepared like this, so it was clear that Governor-General Saito had prepared this to show at the end of the event.

“You seem like a poor person.”

Commander Shinnosuke muttered to himself.

It wasn’t really because I felt sorry for Governor Saito.

It was just… … . It was closer to comparing his situation to Governor-General Saito.

-Passs …

The fireworks display in Gyeongseong came to an end with the last firework creating a red Japanese flag in the night sky.

The soldier who had been badly injured by the trap set by the ghost a little while ago was no longer visible, as he had been taken to the hospital by ambulance.

“Phew… … .”

Commander Shinnosuke looked at his subordinates.

The soldiers and officers were all looking at Commander Shinnosuke.

“… … The ghost of Gyeongseong killed all these people and even planted a bomb on their bodies, so be especially careful.”

“Yes, Your Majesty… … .”

Commander Shinnosuke seemed to have aged thirty years in a short moment.

‘What should I do with this… … .’

His mind was full of thoughts about how to sort out this situation.

‘Should I rather submit a petition to the mainland to take the position of interim governor?’

It seemed like a better solution in the current situation.

‘Yes, since no one will come to this dangerous place anyway… … . Why don’t I just take over the government-general temporarily and implement military rule?’

If he took control of the Government-General, there would be no one in Joseon who could stop him.

No, maybe even on the mainland, they would rather leave everything to themselves than worry about this.

‘It might be okay… … ?’

At that time, Commander Shinnosuke’s worries were deepening.

-Kwakwang! Kwakwagakwang!

There was a huge explosion and flames.

And then a huge explosion occurred on the rooftop dome of the new Government-General Building.

That appearance.

“torchlight?”

It was shaped like a torch.

It was also in the shape of a very large torch.

The giant torch that rose above the Government-General Building shone so brightly that it illuminated all of Gyeongseong.

The bright flames could be seen faintly even outside the four great gates of Hanseong.

* * *

[The fall of the Japanese Government-General of Korea.]

[The Ghost of Gyeongseong exploded again! Again! Again!]

[A firework that bloomed in the middle of the night.]

The next day, all the newspapers in Gyeongseong began to cover this news one after another.

Normally, this kind of news would have had to go through censorship by the Governor-General.

“The Government-General is a mess right now. If not now, then when else will we be able to write articles like this?”

“That’s fun, let’s go!”

“Just go for it! There’s no one who can stop us anyway!”

Now that there is no one to watch out for,

There was no way to stop the newspapers from dancing like mad with their swords.

Even the police checked the newspaper and just went about their business silently.

“Hurrah! Hurrah!”

“Long live Korean independence!”

Even though shouts of “Hurrah” could be heard openly throughout the streets, the police tried hard to ignore them or just glared at the Koreans who said such things and that was the end of it.

Occasionally, some police officers who can’t control their anger will catch a Korean who says something like that and beat him.

“What kind of time is it that you are causing trouble so rashly!”

“Then, do you know what time it is now that a Japanese dares to hit a Korean?”

“What, what?!”

“If you hit me, do you think your balls will still be intact tomorrow?”

“W, is this crazy… … !”

Koreans on the streets were no longer afraid of the police.

“I think all the guys who supported the Japanese, including your police chief and the governor, are dead?”

“If I lose, the next guy will go around talking about it, and if the next guy loses, some other guys will go around talking about it.”

“I don’t know how many bullets you have, but I don’t think it’s enough to kill everyone here.”

“It doesn’t matter if we shoot them all! If we run out of them all, the ghost of Gyeongseong will appear!”

“These, these crazy Joseon guys… …!”

Koreans no longer feared the police.

Rather, the police were afraid of Koreans.

“This is our territory!”

“Okay, get out now!”

“You Japanese, go back home!”

“Gyeongseong belongs to Joseon people!”

The police officers on the scene were so afraid that they could not even patrol for fear that the ghost of Gyeongseong would appear at any time and take their lives.

That wasn’t all.

Some brave Koreans even filled tin cans with pine resin, branches, and clothing to make fire starters and set fire to police stations and government offices.

“Long live Korean independence!”

“Hurray! Hurray!”

As the days passed, the Koreans became more radical, but there was nothing the police in Gyeongseong could do.

In this way, cheers of “hurrah” rang out in Gyeongseong once again.

The weather was cold, but it felt like spring had arrived in people’s hearts.

“… … .”

“Your Majesty, what should we do?”

“… … What should I do?”

But spring in Gyeongseong did not last long.

“Suppress them all.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

This is because the Joseon army (Japanese army), which had been quietly watching this, launched a large-scale suppression operation under the pretext of maintaining public order.

Once again, gunshots rang out through the streets and Gyeongseong began to descend into chaos.

“… … Ugh.”

Geon-cheol, who was watching the soldiers’ harsh suppression operation at the Chosun Ilbo building, trembled with anger.

“Why are you so angry?”

“Teacher, don’t you get angry when you see that sight?”

“huh.”

“What did you say?”

The ghost of Gyeongseong was sipping coffee with his legs crossed and a worldly, carefree expression on his face.

“Anger is the fastest way to ruin things.”

“But… … . But… … .”

“It’s something that anyone can do, even if it’s not us, to watch that scene and get angry right now.”

“… … .”

The teacher poured all the coffee down his throat and spoke to Guncheol with a frown on his face.

“What we need to do now is not to be elated or depressed by the soldiers’ actions… … We need to think about how we can get back at those bastards.”

“… … Is there a way?”

The teacher smiled leisurely.

“How do you want to scold me?”

“I don’t know… … .”

“Really? Then, should we just bring them in one by one at night and hang them in Gwanghwamun?”

“Yes, yes?”

“If you hang one every day, they’ll really like it. Don’t you think so?”

The iron was disgusting.

“That, that’s a bit… … .”

“Why? Have those guys become pitiful now?”

“But that… … is too cruel.”

“Geoncheol! Does this look like child’s play to you? Both those guys and I are at war right now. The Japanese are at war with the goblin known as the Ghost of Gyeongseong!”

In this war, there is no concept of front, rear, or prisoners.

There was only one of two things: someone died or someone was killed.

“When you get involved in this game, you should have come prepared to not just get blood on your hands, but to actually dip your hands in a puddle of blood.”

“… … Are you prepared for that, teacher?”

The teacher smiled silently.

“Tell me later when the streets are quiet. I’m a little tired, maybe because I stayed up all night.”

Then he went into the duty room.
