NIS Agent Tears the Japanese Empire Episode 250

Seizure (3)

“Lee Wan-yong’s house was completely robbed?”

“That’s right.”

“Hahaha! It was really annoying to see that guy walking around with his neck stretched out, but it turned out to be a good thing when I heard him say that.”

It only took three days for the rumor that a man named Kuroda Kyuichi had gathered a crowd of people and robbed the Yi Wan-yong family to spread throughout the eight provinces of Joseon.

They say that in this world, bad news spreads faster than good news, but news about Lee Wan-yong spread even faster.

In particular, the sight of Yi Wan-yong’s family members rushing to the Government-General building to interrogate each other was a spectacle that could not be seen even if one paid money.

“Who on earth is Kuroda Kyuichi?”

“He took all our property, and the Governor-General does nothing about it?”

“What on earth is the Government-General doing!”

But even if they asked him that question, there was nothing Commander Shinnosuke could do.

“That is… … . It was a legitimate contract, so it is not a situation for me to get involved.”

“What?!”

Even though it was a fraud, this was clearly a contract concluded between Lee Wan-yong and Kuroda.

Of course, if you look into it in detail, there were many legal issues that could arise… … But still, a contract was a contract, and if there was a problem, that was it.

“You should go to court and argue. Coming to the Governor-General’s Office like this won’t solve anything.”

“Oh, oh, oh… What a disaster… .”

Commander Shinnosuke had a mountain of issues to deal with right away, so he didn’t have the luxury of worrying about something like this.

To be honest, I didn’t have the energy to worry about personal fraud like this when I couldn’t even do anything about the Gyeongseong ghost that was active in Gyeongseong right now.

“You should go back now.”

“Governor! If you treat us coldly like this, what are we supposed to do… …!”

“I don’t know about that. But if you have a problem, go to the police station or the court.”

“viceroy…….”

Commander Shinnosuke chased away all of Lee Wan-yong’s family members who kept bothering him.

Even after being kicked out of the Governor-General’s Office, they visited the police station, the court, and the lawyer one after another to think of a way, but they too shook their heads.

Everyone gave the same answer, saying that it was difficult to properly deal with the security vacuum and administrative paralysis caused by the ghost of Gyeongseong.

“If neither the Government-General, the police, nor the courts can resolve our grievances, then where on earth should we go to resolve these grievances?!”

“No, then what is going on in Gyeongseong right now!”

“Do you think anything is going well in Gyeongseong right now? Everyone is just watching.”

“What… … ?”

“You too, take care of yourselves. There is news spreading throughout Gyeongseong that the Ghost of Gyeongseong is hunting down the remaining Japanese or those who collaborated with Japan.”

“… … .”

It didn’t take long for Lee Wan-yong’s family to disperse when they realized they no longer had the grand mansion and guards to protect them.

They all fought over the remaining property, divided it among themselves, and then went their separate ways without looking back.

“Kuk ku ku… … .”

“Oh my… … . Your Majesty… … .”

In the end, all that was left for Lee Wan-yong was a shabby shack under a bridge and the butler Kim who had taken care of him for a long time.

“Your Majesty, I too will now… … go my way.”

“Kuk ku ku… … .”

I will correct it.

All he had left was a shabby shack under a bridge.

And that day, Butler Kim left Lee Wan-yong.

Yi Wan-yong threw all the remaining drugs and opium into the Han River and then dragged himself with great difficulty as he tried to jump into the river.

but.

“Oh my, why is someone with such a bright future trying to take their own life so soon?”

“… … .”

Someone stopped him.

Lee Wan-yong, whose body and mind were both torn by the pain of life, turned his head and looked at the person who was trying to prolong his suffering.

“Ugh… … . Aah! Aaaah… … !”

Yi Wan-yong was so surprised when he saw the other person’s face that he tried to say something, but his body, exhausted from the past few weeks, was unable to even make a sound properly.

“Tsk tsk tsk… I don’t understand why someone of your age can be so reckless.”

“Ugh… … . Ugh… … .”

The young man in front of Lee Wan-yong a few months ago.

A vicious terrorist who executed numerous traitors in the newly built Government-General Building and took away both of his legs.

It was the ghost of Gyeongseong.

“The prices are dangerous, so please come out now.”

“Ugh… … . Ahh!!”

Lee Wan-yong tried to throw himself into the river in a hurry, but the ghost of Gyeongseong did not give him the chance to take his own life.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk… If you wanted to take your life that badly, you shouldn’t have sold the country, but instead, when the country was sold, you should have taken your own life.”

“Ugh… … . Ahh… … .”

The ghost of Gyeongseong brought Yi Wan-yong to the shack, made him sit down, and sat down in front of him.

“Well, you know why I came here, right?”

“… … .”

“Since you can’t even speak properly, I won’t force you to answer.”

The ghost got up from his seat, picked up the oil can he had left next to the hut, and sprinkled it around the hut.

“I thought about it carefully, and when our Linoy-san died, wouldn’t he be buried in the ground?”

“… … .”

“But… … . I don’t think descendants who only take their family and money will take care of the grave properly. Do you think so too, Your Majesty?”

“… … .”

Lee Wan-yong did not answer.

His face was distorted in the pain that was slowly rising.

“Oh my… … I wasted time without realizing it. I’m sorry about that.”

The ghost finally placed the half-empty fuel tank next to Yi Wan-yong.

Then he put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it with a lighter.

“Do you have any final words?”

“Ji… … . Ok… … .”

“You want me to go to hell? You’re going to go to hell anyway and sell me out.”

“… … .”

“Okay. Well, let’s just say we’ll meet again in hell. You’ll have a happy reunion with your friends there… … Then when I come to see you later, you’ll prepare to die again.”

The ghost smiled broadly and took a deep drag on the cigarette he had just lit, then dropped it on the floor.

Then, the shack, which was soaked in oil, was quickly engulfed in flames.

“… … !!”

Lee Wan-yong struggled to crawl out of the room, despite the pain of his body being torn to pieces and his flesh being fried alive as he dove into a boiling oil vat…

“Go back in.”

There was a ghost outside.

-puck!

“Ugh!”

He kicked Yi Wan-yong like a soccer ball and sent him into the shack.

Lee Wan-yong’s body hit the wall of the shack, causing the already flimsy shack to collapse in an instant.

“That is your grave.”

So, under an unknown bridge in Gyeongseong, blackened debris was created.

Since there weren’t many people coming and going here, this pile of ashes remained in this place for a long time, and after a long time, it was removed by a diligent sanitation worker and sent to a garbage dump.

Neither the sanitation workers of decades later, nor the countless people who may have passed by this place, would have dared to imagine that this pile of ashes was the grave of Lee Wan-yong, a traitor who once sold out his country.

In this way, Lee Wan-yong disappeared from history.

Later generations have told many stories about his end.

Among them, there was a joke that Lee Wan-yong, who had lost everything and was depressed, was hit by a truck and went to this world to sell out his country.

In fact, one of Lee Wan-yong’s descendants, whose family had fallen into ruin and was struggling in poverty, published a book on the subject and managed to make ends meet.

This is how Lee Wan-yong ended his life in loneliness.

But, considering that he couldn’t rest in peace because his grave was damaged by others after he died, I guess it’s a relief that he was able to rest in peace after he died, forgotten by people.

I don’t know if he thought that way, but that’s what happened.

* * *

I returned to the tea house and erased Lee Wan-yong’s name from the first line of my to-do list.

Among the names on the death list, there were quite a few people whose names were erased, but among them, there was one person who was marked in red.

“Song Byeong-jun, Yoon Deok-yeong, Lee Wan-yong.”

Besides them, countless other traitors died.

Of course, our great lord.

Yoon Deok-yeong isn’t dead yet, and there isn’t a single part of his body that has become X-shaped… But now that he’s turned to me, I’ve excluded him from my to-do list for now.

“Wow… … . Is there still a lot left? It’s so poisonous.”

It seems like I’ve been dealing with them like some evil spirit, but there are still so many left.

Even among these, this was the extent of the cases excluding those with lesser crimes, those who were irreplaceable, or those who had not yet changed their minds at this point.

“There are a lot.”

If I were to diligently beat them up, I would need three bodies.

-Tink, tink.

“Is this teacher here?”

At that time, someone came to me.

I glanced at the door and saw Inspector Sasaki in his police uniform and Bongchang Lee in his yellow overcoat with the Chinese character for “Shingan” clearly written on it.

The two were glaring at each other warily.

“What? What’s going on?”

“Teacher, who is this Japanese guy?”

“Teacher, who is this crippled man?”

“What? Why?”

“Crooked legs?”

As soon as they met, the two started bickering and fighting.

But I asked them both whether or not to do so.

“So I asked what was going on.”

Then Sasaki answered immediately.

“Teacher, this is a big problem. The Japanese government is currently enacting a new law called the Peace Preservation Act, which will arrest disrespectful people regardless of whether they are from home or abroad.”

“The Peace Preservation Act?”

“Yes! And they say they will greatly increase the number of soldiers and police from the mainland to Joseon to maintain public order.”

“okay?”

It was very troubling news.

“Well… … I’ve had a bit of a free ride so far.”

As soon as Sasaki finished speaking, Lee Bong-chang also opened his mouth.

“Teacher! I’m talking about the new recruits for the Korean Independence Army that you mentioned last time. Mr. Wolnam asked me to tell you that the Shinganhoe branch wants to take charge of this.”

“Oh, Mr. Vietnam will do that for you? Didn’t he say that the Japanese police’s surveillance is getting more and more intense?”

“That’s true, but he said that even if they start to stir up trouble for Mr. Vietnam, they will start to reorganize the organization into a guerrilla organization, so even if they get caught, there won’t be a big problem.”

“Oh, really?”

Mr. Lee Sang-jae from Vietnam just a little while ago.

He accepted my advice to reorganize the organization into a disciplinary organization and began to improve the internal structure of the New People’s Association, which was just beginning to expand beyond Gyeongseong and Gyeonggi Province to the entire country.

Once this is done, even if the leadership of Shin Gan-hoe is arrested, I or someone else will be able to take over the organization and run it on my behalf, and even if one side is exposed and things go wrong, it will be easier to cut that line and respond to the police investigation.

Although it may be a bit difficult to carry out missions quickly through coordinated actions or cooperation, it is still a form that is difficult for modern investigative agencies to catch, so the Japanese police will be unable to do anything about it.

“Okay, if you need money, contact Unsan and ask them to send more money to Daegal.”

“Ah, thanks to raiding Lee Wan-yong’s house, I won’t have to worry about running out of money for the time being.”

“Really? Then that’s good.”

Now I feel like things are finally starting to come together.

Abroad, the Provisional Government in Shanghai and the Korean Independence Army in Manchuria, and Beria in the Maritime Province, supported us, while internally, the Singanhoe and Daegal Daegam were in charge of raising funds and recruiting personnel.

‘This is essentially a straw to the Japanese Empire.’

After running around nonstop for the past two years and stirring up the surroundings, it seemed like it was time to take a break.
