The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 19
Only Krnovel
Chae Hyun-hwa, who returned to the pavilion late at night, was surprised to find that the light was still on.
When I opened the office door, Chae Se-yeon was wiping the wet ends of her long straight hair.
“Se-yeon?”
“Ah, great lord.”
Chae Se-yeon folded the towel she was using and looked back at Chae Hyun-hwa.
“I have something to report to you.”
“Is it urgent? You can tell me tomorrow… .”
“I don’t know if it’s urgent, but it seems decisive.”
Chae Se-yeon moved to the side.
A total of six books were piled on the desk.
Chae Hyun-hwa picked up the book on top.
“Thousand characters? Are you saying that the thousand-character text is somehow suspicious?”
“Expand it.”
Chae Hyun-hwa confirmed the contents as Chae Se-yeon said.
Her eyes wavered.
“Where did you find it?”
“There was one in each victim’s home.”
Chae Se-yeon pointed to the remaining books.
“There seem to be two possibilities. “Dang Bi-hyeon left it behind, or it was originally in the victims’ home.”
Although she eagerly expressed her thoughts, Chae Hyun-hwa pretended not to listen.
Chae Hyun-hwa covered the list.
I interrupted Chae Se-yeon and asked a question.
“Does anyone know anything about this list?”
“There is no one else but Hyuk.”
“Speed for him to join. “I have an idea, so I’ll take these.”
“lender. All six volumes have the same content. Still, you have to leave one copy behind… .”
“Stop, stop!”
“… … .”
“Seyeon. I guess I’ll have to be away for a few days. “There is a high probability that this list will have nothing to do with the investigation, so just forget about it and get Yoo Hyuk to join in.”
“lender.”
Chae Se-yeon frowned.
She wiggled her fingers, looking worried.
“Do you know something? … “Is it dangerous?”
Only then did Chae Hyun-hwa realize.
The fact that her face, after decades of mental training, is now fierce like never before.
Chae Hyun-hwa calmed Chae Se-yeon by capturing the helplessly revealed emotions.
“no. It’s okay, so just go in.”
“Yes, Lord.”
Chae Se-yeon followed Chae Hyun-hwa’s orders without a word.
As she took the bamboo ribs and left, Chae Hyun-hwa trudged to her seat and sat down.
“Damn it.”
At the site of Min Seong-guk’s death, there was no Myeolakjigeo mission list.
So it was comfortable.
Dang Bi-hyeon is gathering evidence against the Cheonglimbu.
They are using torture to find out about the Cheonglimbu, and are taking the list of the Destiny’s Destroyers, which can be used as physical evidence.
I guess I can leave it to Chae Se-yeon, who knows nothing.
I had such complacent thoughts.
‘Seyeon.’
Although honest, it is never dull.
Rather, he is a smart child.
In the future, if such clues are discovered at the scene, the child will eventually reach the truth.
The existence of a secret organization that wants to take over the martial arts world, and the fact that Chae Hyun-hwa herself is an executive of that secret organization.
“Should I have sent it to Cheonradan?”
Could it be that he gave affection to the child who was brought in to use as a useful blade in the first place?
As I was raising him, there were times when he seemed like a child I had given birth to with a stomachache.
I should have hit it then.
Chae Hyun-hwa began to regret every moment that had passed.
Grumbling.
The brazier that was used in the winter was brought under the eaves.
Chae Se-yeon threw the list of dead enemies that had been collected inside and started a fire.
“Dang Bi-hyeon is trying to kill me.”
These were my inner thoughts that came out while I was staring blankly at the burning book.
Yes, in the end, the cause of everything lies in Tang Feixian.
If the bastard just ran away, I wouldn’t have been put in a corner.
The leader pecked at Chae Hyun-hwa.
As his gray hair increased, he was also being pushed out by other Cheonglimbu executives.
‘This is both a crisis and an opportunity.’
Chae Hyeon-hwa was an early contributor who devoted herself to helping the Cheonglimbu subdue the Murim Alliance.
It couldn’t be pushed out like this and eliminated without a rumor.
In the end, all problems are solved the moment Dang Bi-hyeon is caught and thrown into prison.
Strengthen your position within the Cheonglimbu, and perhaps even take a higher position in the Murim Alliance.
‘Dang Bi-hyeon.’
I couldn’t cooperate with Chae Se-yeon.
He had no choice but to conduct an independent investigation using a secret agent from the Cheonglimbu who was in close contact with him.
Dangbihyeon is needed.
Dangbihyeon is Chaehyeonhwa’s only way out.

Black hair with a hint of blue and black eyes.
A look you can trust even if it’s a contract.
However, the reality is that he is a world-class expert who has reached the level of a wise man.
Murim lord Lee Yeop was shocked.
He hit the armrest of his armchair and laughed until he was out of breath.
“Head of the party, are you out of your mind?”
As if the Murim Lord’s laughter wasn’t enough, he couldn’t hold back his laughter from time to time.
On the other hand, Dangyeong, who was receiving his attention from the other side, sipped tea with a normal expression on his face as usual.
She started speaking.
“I know very well that this is a proposal that exceeds the authority of the leader of the local government.”
“okay. “Are you doing this knowing full well?”
There is laughter and chills at the same time in Maengju’s words.
Dangyeong responded calmly and with the right attitude.
“I just want to clear my name as quickly as possible.”
“You mean the various rumors that are tied to Tang Feixian?”
“yes.”
The leader looked at Dangyeong.
A woman with a frighteningly constant expression.
Dangyeong gently tilted his head and gently encouraged an answer.
The leader said.
“Jigaekdangju’s plan is flawless. “But there are two issues.”
“Please tell me.”
“one. “The next head of Hyeongdang, Mo Yong-gyo, has disappeared.”
Dangyeong’s eyebrows rose slightly.
Is it simply because it is the first time I am hearing this? or not… .
Maengju was really curious about her inner thoughts.
“two. “Moyong Soje has often met with the leader of the party in recent years.”
“They said they wanted to get to know each other closely before the Hubei Festival.”
“Really?”
“Moyong Soje said so. As a mere customer owner, I have no choice but to believe it.”
Maengju held back a sigh and emptied his teacup.
Since there was no disruption of internal energy, nothing could be found out through simple interrogation.
He motioned for me to leave.
“I haven’t heard back on my offer yet.”
“Oh, I see.”
The leader looked directly at Tang Ying for the last time.
Tang Ying still did not waver.
“Please explain directly at the weekly meeting. “After hearing other people’s opinions, I will consider it.”
“thank you.”
Dangyeong bowed and left the leader’s room.
Maengju stared at her teacup.
It was as if I had only quenched my thirst with one sip, and the amount of tea barely changed.
The leader shook his head.
“Hmm.”
* * *
Dang Bi-hyeon and Chae Se-yeon walked down the street.
The two stopped in front of a clothing store and looked at the outerwear.
“Hyuk. “If there’s something you like, give it a try.”
Dang Bi-hyeon picked up whatever he could get his hands on and roughly put it on his body.
It was immediately returned to its original position.
It didn’t matter what I bought since I wasn’t going to wear it anyway.
Chae Se-yeon didn’t seem to like Dang Bi-hyeon’s indifferent attitude.
“Why are you doing this when it’s something you should wear?”
She came close and snatched the clothes from Dang Bi-hyeon’s hand.
He placed the hand holding the neck of the garment on Dangbihyeon and held the sleeve with the other hand.
“Now, like this. “To see the length, you have to compare your arms like this.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
Chae Se-yeon, realizing the close distance, froze for a moment.
Then Tang Bihyeon smiled softly.
“How is it?”
“what?”
“Does it fit well?”
“… suited.”
I bought it with that.
After that, the two walked further.
Mainly, Chae Se-yeon guided Dang Bi-hyeon to what kind of stores there were.
“Didn’t you come because of the outerwear? “Let’s go back now.”
“I would be sad if I went right away. “You said you didn’t get to see the market properly?”
Chae Se-yeon, who followed through on her intention to introduce everything thoroughly, took the lead.
After only a few steps, she looked back at Tang Feixian.
He pointed at the pancake seller and smiled broadly.
It was the first time Dang Bi-hyeon realized that she had dimples.
“Vice owner.”
“huh?”
Dang Bi-hyeon asked Chae Se-yeon, who bit into a pancake.
“Do you like pancakes?”
“huh. “I like it the most.”
No matter where you go, pancakes are a must-have food on the street.
The price is cheap and the quantity is large for a cheap product.
It has a strong meaning as a simple snack, but it is rare to find people who say they like jeonbyeong the best.
Chae Se-yeon added.
“I guess it’s because I couldn’t eat as much as I wanted when I was young.”
Chae Se-yeon looked away and swallowed the pancake.
Then he spoke in a lower voice than before.
“Hyuk.”
“Yes, unit commander.”
“The list I collected yesterday. don’t mind.”
Tang Feixian narrowed his eyebrows.
“What’s wrong?”
“The great lord took it. “He didn’t give a detailed explanation, but said he would handle it himself.”
Dang Bi-hyeon, who read Chae Se-yeon’s expression, pinpointed the question she had.
“What is the reason?”
Chae Se-yeon could not answer.
It was accurate to say that I had nothing to say.
She passed her turn to Dang Bi-hyeon.
“What do you think?”
“You took the secret ledger from Jeoksaeng last time, but there was no news.”
Dang Bi-hyeon guessed.
“Aren’t the secret ledgers and registers both related to something?”
“Is Daeju also involved?”
“Maybe.”
“There was no name on the list.”
“The important thing is that all of Dang Bi-hyeon’s targets so far are people on the list.”
It could be said that Mo Yong-gyo was still missing.
Chae Se-yeon wanted to hear Dang Bi-hyeon’s reasoning.
Dang Bi-hyeon took a step back, saying he did not know the details.
But he was half sure.
I didn’t have much doubt about the secret ledger, but Chae Se-yeon’s story gave it weight.
‘Chae Hyun-hwa is an official of the Cheonglimbu.’
In her original life, she withdrew from the front line shortly after Chae Se-yeon transferred her affiliation to Cheonna Dan.
I didn’t pay attention to him because he moved to the position of an elder of the Murim Alliance and lived without his presence.
‘It wasn’t until Hwagyeong.’
Still, he seemed at least one step higher than Tang Fei-hyeon.
It was clear that, like Moyonggyo, it was a state of transcendence.
Assuming a one-on-one match, I calculated the odds in my head.
‘for a moment. no. Jumping to conclusions is prohibited.’
What is the possibility that it is not Cheonglimbu?
What if you are just capturing the disturbing movements within the Murim Alliance and personally investigating it?
“Hyuk. “Jeonbyeong won’t fill you up?”
I raised my head at Chae Se-yeon’s words.
Smoke billowed out in front.
“Do you want to eat dumplings?”
“It’s not that I want to eat, it’s that you are hungry.”
“If you want to eat it, eat it. “I’ll take one too.”
“Because I don’t want to eat it.”
While saying that, Chae Se-yeon quickly headed to the dumpling shop.
Dang Feixian followed her.
Anyway, we need to be cautious for a while.
Without Yang, his activities are limited as he is tied to his external status.
Let’s not rush and mess things up, but investigate slowly.
It was then.
“I see a happy face here.”
“Jo Danju.”
The voice of Cho Pil, the head of the Cheonna Danju, grabbed hold of Dang Bi-hyeon.
Dang Bi-hyeon looked at the carts following Jo Pil.
In the second cart, there was a long box containing Mo Yong-gyo’s body.
‘You couldn’t find it? If you had seen the blood, would you have opened it?’
I observed quickly.
Long boxes were stacked in exquisite positions.
The part with the blood stains was covered by other luggage.
In that case, if only the person who put the box on the cart did not notice, others would not know either.
“It looks like the transport was delayed because of the rain yesterday.”
“That’s right. “Please tell the Lord that the investigation will resume tomorrow, so please take a look.”
“I will tell it as it is.”
Chae Se-yeon, who bought the dumplings, came out of the smoke.
“Danju, it’s been a while since I saw you.”
“Did you guys come out for some air?”
“yes.”
As she greeted Jo Pil, she immediately furrowed her brows.
“weird.”
Chae Se-yeon handed over the plate of dumplings to Dang Bi-hyeon and took a step forward.
Second cart.
A long box.
Namgung-tae next to the cart asked what was going on, but Chae Se-yeon just looked down at the box.
She placed her hand on the box lid.
“Why does the smell of blood here… .”
