Episode 78 Parental Connection Management Bureau
Fumo Connection Back, Yuno!
Aliotta was more impressed by my quick-witted remarks than Ma Jun-seok.
[Parental Network Management Office?]
‘When I see that guy, that’s all I can think of.’
[Why did you add ‘Yuno’ at the end?]
‘I put it on to make it look like I can speak English a little. Do you like it?’
[Is it okay if I just add Yuno? Where is the person who says that their parents’ connections are Pumo Back?]
‘Shut up! Instead of nagging, why don’t you just hack something quickly?’
Ma Jun-seok asked with a bewildered expression.
“Parental Connection Management Bureau? Fumo… … Connection Connection?”
[Please rephrase: Department of Parents’ Connection Building!]
‘Oh. As expected, it’s artificial intelligence!’
I opened my mouth and inwardly gave Aliotta a thumbs up.
“Oh, I misspoke for a moment. The Department of Parents’ Connection Building, DPB.”
“This is the first time I’ve heard of that.”
“This is my first time saying this in front of others. Our department operates in such a secretive manner.”
Ma Jun-seok still looked at me with a long, hesitant expression. It was obvious that he was struggling with whether to believe this ridiculous statement or not.
The content is really stupid, but if you just pass it by, you’ll see that Heo Woo-dae looks fine in a luxury suit and sunglasses. But if you listen closely, the ‘Pumo Back’ management office seems like nonsense.
[Is this a diversionary operation?]
‘That’s what it is.’
[Good.]
‘Why don’t you go hack or something?’
[I’m doing it. Don’t you know how to multitask? You can hack and shine a light at the same time.]
It seems like Aliotta is getting more and more cheeky by the day. That kind of thing doesn’t require deep learning.
By the way, Ma Jun-seok seemed to be aware that he had used his father’s connections.
Well, if you look at him driving drunk as soon as he got his license, he must have lost all sense of law-abiding. If he’s driving a foreign car since he was 20, he probably won’t have any qualms about spending his parents’ money.
If a guy like that has a father who is also a member of the National Assembly, it would be strange for him to not use his father’s chance in life.
Ma Jun-seok looked at me carefully and asked.
“So. You’re going to submit the report there?”
“Yes. It will contain a very detailed story about how Mr. Ma Jun-seok used his father’s connections to avoid prison again! Once again! Without fail!
“No, that’s not it. What happens if the report is submitted? Where does the parental connections management office belong? Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs? Ministry of Gender Equality and Family?”
I raised my finger and shouted happily, like someone who had found gold in the river.
“Aha! So Congressman Ma Yong-gi has connections to the Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs and the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family? If the Parents’ Connection Management Bureau is under their jurisdiction, do you think he can interfere here as well?”
“No, that’s not it.”
Ma Jun-seok stuttered, sweating, as if he was embarrassed.
‘This is already getting into my pace.’
Seeing Ma Jun-seok in a panic, I shouted at him again for no reason.
“Do you know that if you use your parents’ connections recklessly, our management office will come and throw you in jail or not?”
“Ah, to prison?”
“As soon as this report goes up, there will be an investigation. Please be aware of that.”
“Oh, no. This time, I really didn’t use my dad’s influence.”
While Ma Jun-seok was making excuses, Aliotta shouted.
[It’s over! Mission complete!]
‘okay!’
[The hacking is over, so let’s go now.]
‘Good!’
I straightened my clothes and greeted him politely.
“Okay, I’ll be going now.”
“Yes? Are you just going to leave like this?”
Ma Jun-seok said with a dumbfounded expression.
“Well then. Should I arrest you right now?”
“No, that’s not it.”
“Our management office will continue to keep an eye on Mr. Ma Jun-seok. From now on, think twice before using your parents’ connections. We may come for a surprise inspection at any time.”
“Are you really going to submit a report? Can you just ignore it this once?”
It’s sticky.
“Oh, right. I almost forgot.”
I took a ballpoint pen out of my pocket and held it up to Ma Jun-seok’s eye level.
“Okay. Now, look at this carefully.”
“Oh, it says, ‘Today’s sweat, tomorrow’s muscles! Lombardi Health Club’?”
“I didn’t mean to tell you to read what’s written there.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Just look at this intently. Then your memory will be erased.”
“yes?”
‘Aliotta. Now!’
[yes!]
Aliota burst into a bright light right in front of Ma Jun-seok, who was standing there dumbfounded.
“oh!”
Suddenly, my eyes were dazzled, so I quickly left the place while Ma Jun-seok covered his face with his hands.
‘Phew. If you open your eyes like that, you’ll think I just disappeared?’
[I guess so. The memories won’t be erased, though.]
‘I hope there’s nothing wrong with your eyes or anything?’
[The intensity of the light has been adjusted. It may be dazzling for a moment and you may not be able to see, but once you adjust to the surrounding brightness, there will be no problem.]
‘Hacking?’
[It ended well. Ma Jun-seok, this is totally popular. What kind of college student’s schedule is this busy? This week and next week, there are various friends’ gatherings, class reunions, birthday parties, housewarmings, and all kinds of commemorative parties lined up.]
‘Good!’
* * *
As the car stopped in front of a luxury apartment complex, Ma Jun-seok got out of it.
“Thanks for giving me a ride.”
“If you’re grateful, buy me food, Inma. It’s not free.”
“good.”
Ma Jun-seok, who was waving his hand and turning around, stopped.
“Are you going to Youngseok’s party tomorrow?”
“Of course I should go.”
“What time will you pick me up?”
“Am I your knight?”
“Then what do I do? My license is revoked so I can’t drive.”
“You idiot. Who would get caught like that?”
“Oh, this is annoying.”
“I won’t be able to come here tomorrow because I have something else to do. Come on your own. Or take a taxi.”
“Oh, you punk. You’re being tight.”
“Or call someone else. I’m going.”
The friend who had given him a ride started the car before Ma Jun-seok could say anything else. Ma Jun-seok just stared after him without saying a word.
There’s something else going on, bullshit.
I know you always skip class and play, but you keep pretending to be busy. I’m sure you’re just making up stories because you don’t want to be bothered by me picking you up.
“no way!”
Ma Jun-seok kicked a rock rolling on the floor. How can you live in Seoul without a car?
As soon as I entered the house, my mother came running, as if she had been waiting for me.
“My son. Let me see. Are you okay?”
“Oh, right.”
Ma Jun-seok pushed away his mother’s hand, which was examining his head and body.
“Did I get sick somewhere? I was just going to court.”
“Still. They’re all hostile to you. When you go to a place like that, you get really angry. I got a call from Attorney Seo. He said you got a suspended sentence? Oh, if you’re going to be lenient, just give me a little. What’s two years of suspended sentence? Two years? One year should be enough.”
Ma Jun-seok didn’t really care. The point was that he didn’t go to prison anyway. What if he got a one-year suspended sentence? What if he got two years? What was important was that he could roam the outside world.
“Wasn’t it hard?”
“are you okay.”
“Yeah, I said Mom is going with me.”
“It’s okay. I’m not a mama’s boy.”
“How did you get home? I heard that Attorney Seo was busy and just left. He should have called.”
“I came in a friend’s car. Mom, I’m tired. I’ll go in and rest.”
“Okay, okay. Come on in.”
Just then, a shout was heard from inside the living room.
“What’s a guy tired of just getting a ride from his friend?”
At that moment, Ma Jun-seok’s body stiffened slightly. His mother mouthed the word ‘Dad’. It was not time to be at home. Could it be that she was waiting for him?
Mom poked Ma Jun-seok’s back with her hand and motioned for him to go into his room quickly. If he went into his room like this, he wouldn’t be able to avoid his father’s scolding. While Ma Jun-seok hesitated for a moment, his father, Ma Yong-gi, appeared.
Ma Jun-seok bowed his head and greeted.
“I’m back… … .”
But I couldn’t say that greeting until the end.
slam-.
This was because Ma Jun-seok was hit hard in the face by the hand that Ma Yong-gi was swinging, causing his head to turn around.
“Oh my, honey!”
His mother was startled and came over to Ma Jun-seok, but Ma Yong-gi ignored her and continued to spit out harsh words at Ma Jun-seok.
“Didn’t I tell you to be quiet? To not cause trouble? How many times do I have to tell you until you understand? Huh?”
“… … .”
“I don’t even stand out within the party. Don’t you know that in a few months we’ll be electing a party leader?”
“I don’t know! Why should I care about something like that?”
“This guy!”
Ma Yong-gi’s hand went up again, but this time his mother stopped him.
“Honey, be patient. The kid just got back from court. And you too. That’s what you always say to Dad.”
I tried to mediate between the father and son, but the atmosphere between them was cold.
“Why do you care about that? You rascal. Are you doing this just for my own good? Don’t you know that the more I rise, the more you’ll enjoy it? Oh my, this is the kind of guy my son is.”
“… … .”
Ma Yong-gi, who was grumbling as if his anger was not going away, said.
“I know that because I’m going to sell your car too.”
“Huh? Dad!”
Selling a car! That was Ma Jun-seok’s most cherished car. As they say, a car, it was like his identity. But selling it? Selling it?
“No, Dad. What is that?”
“It’s like pearls on a pig’s neck to someone who drinks and drives.”
Ma Jun-seok was so upset that he almost cried, but Ma Yong-gi didn’t move an inch.
“What good is a guy without a license doing with a car? Don’t you know that if you leave it unattended and don’t drive it, it’ll just become trash?”
“No. You’d better kill me.”
“This guy still hasn’t come to his senses.”
Ma Yong-gi, who was glaring at his son as if he was going to kill him, looked at his wife and said.
“Don’t even feed that guy. He doesn’t even know what he did wrong. Is that car that important?”
“Honey, he’s still out of his mind. He was harassed by the prosecutor at the courthouse and then he got home and started harassing him.”
“You too. You always protect him like this, so he doesn’t know what he did wrong.”
“Then what should I do? Send my only son to prison?”
“Eww. Tsk.”
Ma Yong-gi clicked his tongue and headed towards the front door without looking back.
“I’ll be late today. Don’t wait up for me.”
As Ma Yong-gi slammed the door shut and left, his mother called Ma Jun-seok in a soft voice as if soothing a child.
“Junseok, are you okay?”
“I don’t think Dad would sell the car, right?”
“Don’t just talk. I know how much you love that car. Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you don’t sell it.”
“yes.”
“I understand. I guess things are a bit complicated for Dad these days. Even within the party, they’re keeping each other in check. Everyone is rushing to kill Dad, and now your problem is coming up.”
The mother, who had been talking to her son to calm him down, closed her mouth in a fit of rage. Ma Jun-seok remained silent without saying anything. The mother, who had been watching her son’s expression, quickly waved her hand.
“Well, that doesn’t mean you did anything wrong. People just like talking.”
But Ma Jun-seok wasn’t listening to his mother. He was lost in other thoughts.
“Mom. Do you think so too? That I was released thanks to Dad’s connections?”
“Who said that?”
“Just some people from some department… … .”
“That’s ridiculous. Hey, do judges play around? Your father isn’t even the president. How could he release you with his connections? And if he really had connections, he wouldn’t have been indicted at all. What do you mean, they just gave you a suspended sentence?”
“Right? It’s not your dad’s influence, is it?”
“Graham. This isn’t Dad’s influence, it’s the power of money. If you spend money and hire a good lawyer, you can do this much.”
“hmm.”
Ma Jun-seok’s reaction was indifferent, perhaps because it wasn’t the answer he had been expecting.
“Oh, your re-examination date has come out.”
Ma Jun-seok, who was wondering what she was talking about for a moment, soon realized that his mother was talking about the physical examination for military service. When he frowned, his mother spoke to him in a soothing tone.
“Don’t worry. You’ll be exempted. This is when Dad’s connections come in handy.”
“But what if the parental authority finds out?”
“what?”
“Parents… … no.”
Ma Jun-seok shook his head.
‘Hey, I guess not.’
I guess I was possessed for a moment. There’s no way something like that could really exist in this world. There’s no way a department would come and throw you in jail just because you used your dad’s connections.
‘Parental network management office? That’s ridiculous.’
