The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 11



Only Krnovel

Black eyes looked at the steaming car indifferently.

Dangyeong was holding the glass with an expressionless expression that matched his sharp expression.

A sonorous voice came from the other side.

“Senior, are you uncomfortable?”

Dangyeong slowly raised his gaze.

I saw a woman talking to me with her chin resting comfortably.

Short hair that reaches her shoulders, red eyes.

It was Moryong Bridge.

“Speak comfortably. “You are the owner of the restaurant.”

“What is the reason you asked to meet?”

“Even if you say it comfortably.”

“… … .”

As Dangyeong remained silent, Mo Yong-gyo, who had been laughing heartily, quickly turned cold and opened his mouth.

“As you know, our head has stepped down from his position, so I am serving as acting head for a while.”

“… … .”

There was a story behind the sudden resignation of the venerable head of the royal family.

Recently, he was on the brink of death after his closest aide was poisoned in his car.

After barely recovering, he pretended to be calm for a while, but when he realized that it was the work of someone close to him, his fear grew and he became restless.

He even secretly requested an internal investigation, but it only confirmed the unknown influence of his close associates.

In the end, he gave up his position and returned home.

Mo Yong-gyo, a close associate, did not bother to mention such a behind-the-scenes story.

“And the head of the family asked me this before leaving. “Don’t just wait for the Chussaldae to investigate, if you are inside the Murim Alliance, investigate directly!”

“What are we going to do?”

“Didn’t Min Seong-guk and the guy who killed Jeoksaeng come in contact?”

“Moyong Sohyeop.”

“Please be honest. “He did the murder, so what’s wrong with you?”

“Small cooperative… !”

“Huh?”

Mo Yong-gyo quirked his eyebrows and pointed to Dangyeong’s teacup.

“Don’t break that. “It’s expensive.”

Dangyeong relaxed his hands.

There was already a slight crack, and it seemed like it would soon split even if I left it alone.

Mo Yong-gyo, who casually laughed off her cold anger, shrugged his shoulders.

“If there was no contact, you could just say it didn’t happen. Why is it so unusual? “It actually makes me more suspicious.”

“Are you planning on arresting me?”

“Oh, is that possible?”

Mo Yong-gyo made a fist with his chin and continued speaking.

“I trust you, senior.”

Dangyeong maintained a consistent expressionless expression and looked directly at Mo Yonggyo.

He was someone I only met because of official duties and had no personal contact with.

When Mo Yong-gyo suddenly called him out and scolded him, Dangyeong felt extremely uncomfortable.

She began.

“I have no intention of helping the party now. “They were kicked out of the temple family for marrying a ronin.”

Mo Yong-gyo nodded repeatedly.

She maintained a playful tone.

“I believe in the leader of the party. Let’s be friends from now on. “Let’s have events like this often.”

“… … .”

“Don’t feel burdened. “We’re just lining up in advance.”

Dangyeong narrowed his eyes.

“A line?”

“Didn’t you hear about the Hubei Festival? “They said they are changing it every five years.”

Hubei Festival.

A festival where talented people from political factions gather together to compete and promote harmony.

Originally, according to the traditional seven-year cycle, the next Hubei Festival was scheduled for two years later.

If it had been moved forward in a five-year cycle, it would most likely have been this fall, not two years later.

Mo Yong-gyo took a sip of tea.

“No matter how insignificant the guest party is, doesn’t it have a say during the Hubei Festival?”

“You’re saying that right in front of me.”

Even though the leader of the Jigaekdang was sitting in front of him, Mo Yong-gyo did not hesitate.

The other person’s rudeness becomes a good excuse.

Without hesitation, Dangyeong got up from his seat and turned his back.

“I can no longer listen to your careless remarks. See you next time.”

“yes. “I will say goodbye in a few days, so let’s have a drink then, senior.”

Dangyeong left the room, ignoring Mo Yonggyo’s words.

Mo Yong-gyo saw Dangyeong’s teacup left behind.

Didn’t drink a single sip.

“Have you already betrayed me, or will you betray me in the end?”

Or will he lie flat until the end and preserve his position as the leader of the Korean and American customers?

I decided to find out little by little.

Mo Yong-gyo was aware of this.

Although he showed timid resistance at the end, Tang Yong had no choice but to comply whenever he made an appointment.

That’s what it meant to have the same last name as an evildoer who colluded with a demonic cult.

“I think the head of the family has arrived by now.”

A military officer came in at the right time, gave a bow and handed me a letter.

It was a monitor’s report given to the head of the family, or rather, to the previous head of the family.

When attention is focused on the Hubei Festival, we need to prepare now to handle it without raising any rumors.

* * *

A palace assigned to the Chusaldae.

Chae Se-yeon looked at Chusaldaeju Chae Hyun-hwa.

“By the way, what happened to Jeoksaeng’s ledger?”

“I have guided you to the lord, so things will be resolved on their own. “You don’t have to worry about it.”

Dang Bi-hyeon was listening to the conversation between the two and writing down the details of today’s investigation in a book.

I was embarrassed to deliberately change my handwriting.

Chae Hyun-hwa, who was discussing the direction of the investigation, suddenly asked him.

“Yuhyeok, was there anything special about the Jaengjasu?”

“yes. So far, we have no contact with each other, and it appears that our jobs overlapped by chance.”

In fact, Tang Feixian had never faced the Zengzisu.

These were people I worked with when I disguised myself as a housekeeper and looked into the structure of private homes.

Wouldn’t it be a big deal if they even recognized Dang Bi-hyeon?

With his eloquent speaking skills, he moved the Cheonradan warriors to interrogate the Jaengjasu on his behalf.

They only subtly persuaded them that if new facts were revealed through their interrogation, they would be credited.

It wasn’t a lie.

“No one is trying to escape, and there are no traces of martial arts skills.”

Chae Se-yeon, who heard Dang Bi-hyeon’s words, gave advice to Chae Hyeon-hwa.

“I think it would be better to release him within a few days. “We have been silent about the authority of the martial arts people, but now it is time for dissatisfaction to arise.”

“You are right. “I will take a final look at it and then release it.”

The sun was already setting.

Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon had fatigue on their faces.

The types of fatigue they had were different.

Chae Se-yeon was tired from worrying about the culprit.

On the other hand, Dang Fei-hyeon copied Jeoksaeng’s secret ledger all night long.

Both of them had not had a proper rest since arriving in Hubei.

Chae Hyun-hwa smiled happily.

“I guess I’ve been too busy with the young people. Let’s take a break for today. All the way until tomorrow.”

Chae Se-yeon, who must have been quite depressed, nodded first.

Dang Fei-hyeon also quickly agreed.

“I will get enough rest and work hard again the day after tomorrow.”

And so the Chussaldae disbanded.

Chae Hyun-hwa said she had someone to meet and headed somewhere else, and Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon left the Murim Alliance through the main gate together.

While they were walking down the street in silence, Chae Se-yeon called Dang Bi-hyeon.

“Hyuk.”

“yes.”

“What kind of person do you think the criminal is?”

Dang Bi-hyeon looked to the side.

Chae Se-yeon’s lips were sweet.

“Not what your name is or what you look like. Things like the past and tendencies.”

What answer would be good?

Tang Feixian spoke carefully after much deliberation.

“It seems certain that he is not an upright political faction leader.”

“What does it mean?”

“Isn’t this a very extreme method? In fact, claiming the party’s innocence seems more counterproductive.”

Their words and actions were different.

Dang Bi-hyeon thinks this is the correct answer.

He sighed, imagining himself kneeling at the entrance to the Murim Alliance and wandering around the village.

If he had been a young master who grew up without much thought and then lost his family, he might have really done that.

He was probably executed mercilessly for being shameless.

Dang Bi-hyeon knew the true nature hidden beneath the secrets of the warriors who advocated agreement.

In the end, Moorim is governed by the logic of power.

‘Thoroughly take revenge, and receive a declaration of surrender that Tangmun is innocent.’

I was sure that was the only way.

At that time, Chae Se-yeon sighed and confessed her concerns.

“The criminal is thorough. “To the point where I carved the bamboo myself and made the memorization in order not to leave a single clue.”

“Yes.”

“Would someone like that commit a needless murder?”

On the surface, Jeoksaeng had nothing to do with the extinction of the Tang family. So, not knowing the motive for the murder seemed to keep bothering me.

Dang Bi-hyeon quietly pointed out the evidence she was missing.

“There were other books in the bundle besides the ledger.”

“Oh, I did.”

It was the story of the Destroyer List.

In fact, it was suspicious that only names were listed without titles, but the encryption system of the secret ledger was so strong that it seemed like they had forgotten about it.

Chae Se-yeon, who remembered Dang Bi-hyeon’s words, stopped walking.

I muttered something to myself and turned around.

“I need to look at that book.”

“Do you want to see it now?”

“I can’t keep it like this because it’s bothering me.”

“You need to rest.”

“I’ll just watch for a moment. “Don’t worry, Hyuk, you can rest well.”

Chae Se-yeon returned to the Murim Alliance.

Thanks to this, Dang Bi-hyeon, who was left alone, headed straight to the hideout.

Escort Yang was waiting in the basement.

“Confucius, I have found out briefly about Moyonggyo.”

“In one day?”

“I just collected stories circulating outside of the Murim Alliance.”

What we found out through the Murim League organization chart handed over by Namgung Seobaek was Mo Yong-gyo’s position, age, and appearance at the time of joining the group.

Here, Howie Yang added information.

“It is said that when the head of the family head left for his hometown, he took on the role of acting head.”

“I will soon become the official head of the family.”

“That’s right.”

For an official of the Cheonglimbu, he was surprisingly in a low position.

However, since he took over as the head of the family at an age around Irip’s age, strictly speaking, he is a quite remarkable talent.

“And there is one peculiar thing.”

“say it.”

“A few years ago, Zhuge Emperor and Xiao Jiazhu were talking about marriage, and it is said that he left the Murim Alliance and stayed at Zhuge Dynasty for a whopping two years.”

“So, are you married?”

“no. “I am single.”

Usually, marriage talks that take place after bringing a woman into the family are almost certain.

Just meeting the detailed conditions, the marriage itself was virtually a done deal.

Even if there was a risk of marrying a child other than the one initially discussed, it was unusual for the marriage to be completely rejected like Mo Yong-gyo.

At this time, Tang Feixian’s intuition shone through.

“Howie Yang, when exactly was that?”

“We need to find out the exact time.”

“Compare this to the theft incident involving a new recruit.”

“All right.”

Zhuge Dynasty is skilled in strategy and strategy.

The new soldiers they produced and stored had value in a different way from well-forged weapons.

There was a theft incident in which almost all of the Zhuge family’s treasures were lost.

Eleven years before his death in his original life.

Currently about four years ago.

‘It is certain that it was the work of the Cheonglimbu.’

The Zhuge Dynasty has always opposed the policies of the Murim Alliance, which is controlled by the Cheonglimbu.

What secret organization wouldn’t strive to neutralize one of its biggest thorns in the eye?

Just before Dang Bi-hyeon was caught, Cheonra-dan took advantage of his stolen recruits.

If Mo Yongqiao is responsible for stealing the Zhuge family’s treasure.

“I might get something useful.”
