Regression Life of a Retired S-Class Mercenary

Episode 198. First Solo (5)

Kangsu dragged Lester Ramos into the office and sat him on a chair. It was dark inside and outside the office as the lights went out and the fire went out.

The office floor was stained with blood from Lester Ramos’ wrists and ankles.

In response, Kangsu turned on the flashlight and checked the surroundings.

“In case you didn’t know, I’ve taken care of everything you expect from the guys at the top of the cliff and at the entrance to the quarry.”

Lester Ramos’s eyebrows twist at those words of Kangsu.

“Keugh— Damn it. and… Alpha? I never thought a real alpha would be born. Was it our possessions? cuuu… … .”

“possession?”

“No… do you think Wasn’t it made with our money and technology?”

Kangsu calmly listened and stabbed Lester Ramos at the border between his right knee and thigh with a knife.

“Kwaaah!”

As the knife pierced the thick flesh, blood seeped out.

Screams of pain echoed through the office.

“If you keep talking nonsense, I could kill you right away.”

“Ugh… am i wrong? Or did you just have to be angry?”

“… … .”

Kang-soo stared at Lester Ramos and then looked elsewhere.

Laptops and other devices were placed on or around the desk. I plugged the USB I brought into my laptop.

“… What are you doing?”

“… … .”

Ignoring Lester Ramos’ question, Kang-soo checked other devices. It was difficult to find out information through the person concerned, so it was to find it with a device or object.

Then, Kang-soo pressed his ear and said.

“Did you rob the computer?”

[Transmitting. But there is a biometric recognition program.]

It was Gong Chi-young.

In response, Kang-soo pulled out the knife that was stuck in Lester Ramos’ knee.

push-

“Biometrics? where? eye? finger?”

“Ugh—”

Blood flowed from the wound. In the meantime, Kangsu looked at Lester Ramos’s face and hands alternately while holding the knife.

I was waiting for Gong Chi-young’s answer.

[It’s snow. Is there a recognition device there?]

“wait.”

Flashlights illuminated all over the desk.

There was an iris recognition device among the devices that I had gathered in one place earlier.

“I found it. wait.”

“What, what are you trying to do?”

“The USB connector on the other side… … .”

Kangsu kept ignoring Lester Ramos’ words. I tried to pick up the USB connector with my hand holding a knife and plug it in, but it didn’t go in well.

click-

Soon after, I managed to connect the iris scanner to my laptop and approached Lester Ramos again.

“left? Or right?”

“What are you doing!”

While ignoring it, Gong Chi-young’s answer came.

[I think I need to try it once to know, but I don’t know until I try. Bring it to the machine first.]

“The place where the laptop and the guy are tied is a bit far. So pull it out and take it. If I don’t know which one, I’ll have no choice but to pick both.”

[what? What did you pick? Are you unplugging the outlet?]

Gong Chi-young’s voice sounded startled, but Kang-soo ignored it and stood in front of Lester Ramos with a calm expression.

In that situation, Lester Ramos’ eyes fluttered rapidly.

“Hey, hey— calm down. Is there even a need for this?”

widely-

Kang-soo grabbed his head as if pressing it down.

“If you make a wrong move, it may not end with a draw. Oh, it would be nice if you could tell me if it’s right or left. how is it?”

“that… … .”

“I fully understand, so ask me tight. Don’t just bite your tongue.”

With the answer, Kang-soo moved the knife in his hand to his left eye.

At the same time, another loud scream echoed through the office.

“Ah, ah, ah—! Oh right! Right!”

The tip of the knife stopped just before it touched his eye.

Savnak’s mercenaries even wear poisoned rings to commit suicide in dangerous moments. But, like the chief I met in France, Norman Miller, and the behavior of Lester Ramos right in front of me, I felt genuinely pitiful.

“Haa—what kind of people really are… … .”

Kang-su lowered the knife and dragged the chair Lester Ramos was tied to in front of the desk. There he picked up the sensor device and held it to his right eye.

“it’s okay?”

[mmm— Ok! it’s okay! Ah— I also have a password. wait for a sec.]

The screen of the USB-connected laptop quickly changed. It was a laptop installed with a special program provided by the organization. Even if it passed iris recognition, it was hacked too fast.

Lester Ramos, who watched the scene from the side with a painful expression, had a deep brow.

[done!]

Along with Gong Chi-young’s voice from the earphones, the screen changed faster than before. The locked data began to be copied.

“Aren’t you ready to tell me about the elders other than Horyuji Kamikura? I told you where your eyes were earlier, so it’s not difficult.”

“Only subject to the test subject—”

puck-

Kangsu’s fist pierced the left side of his face.

“Big! Kaak— twee!”

Lester Ramos spat out bloody saliva and three yellow molars before replying.

“Do you think only one laptop could contain important information?”

“I know. I mean you guys are pretty thorough. Because there was nothing special in France or Poland.”

“Even revenge… Are you here to do it? You don’t think it’s possible for a test subject, right?”

Despite sustaining significant injuries here and there, Lester Ramos’ mouth is still not dead.

At those words, Kang-soo put the chair that had fallen down next to him in front of him and sat facing him.

“Haa— can’t you still figure out what’s going on?”

“You and that woman, two. I don’t know how many others there are, but… If you think that no matter how many people you belong to, you can deal with us, you will be very mistaken!”

Pak—

This time, the border between the opposite knee and thigh was stabbed with a knife.

“aaagh—! FUXK!”

The pain even caused curses to come out of Lester Ramos’ mouth.

Kangsu continued to make a calm expression. In the meantime, Gong Chi-young’s voice came through the earphones.

[found-!]

“What did you find?”

[message. Even the most recent ones that were deleted were restored. But it uses a new passcode. It’s not the ASCII code I used before.]

Until then, precipitation was expected.

“Can you solve it?”

[wait.]

Meanwhile, Lester Ramos’ complexion went pale. Both wrists and ankles were shot, and the knee was even stabbed, so it was a natural situation.

Kang-soo stared intently at Lester Ramos, who was gradually losing his strength.

“You still don’t want to talk?”

“… … .”

The buck— the buck—

Then Theresa entered through the open door of the office.

“Soo. Do you have a lot left to organize?”

“Almost done. outside?”

“Once we found and collected all communication devices. Not many of them.”

Theresa held up a sack-like bag.

“okay. I’ll just finish and leave. Go to the out point first. Take good care of your gear.”

“Roger—!”

After answering that, Theresa immediately went outside.

Kangsu looked at Lester Ramos again. He said while illuminating his face with a flashlight.

“I think I gave you a little time to think about it, but is the decision still the same?”

“… Do you want to find out so much about our organization? For your own revenge? Isn’t that something to be thankful for? Aren’t they as great as they are now thanks to us?”

At his arrogant questioning, Kang-soo’s eyes grew cold.

“So you want to live?”

“… If you know it’s because of us, you shouldn’t be like this!”

“Thanks… thanks for… … .”

In the meantime, Kang-soo glanced at the laptop screen and moved.

Shuuk— Papak— Pak—

Kang-soo quickly pulled out the knife that had been stuck in his other knee and stabbed it diagonally below the left rib and inside the right collarbone.

“Big, big— kuck—!”

Lester Ramos couldn’t even scream as his lungs were punctured through his ribs.

“You were the three elders. and… Four elders are Dietrich Koltitz, and five elders are Kurt Herringen.”

The eyes of Lester Ramos, who was in pain at Kangsu’s murmur, opened wide.

Seeing such a reaction, Kang-soo slowly got up and put his laptop and equipment in a drum outside and burned them.

roar-

[Teresa has reached the out point. Is everything organized there?]

“it’s over. Thank you for deciphering the encrypted message at the end.”

It was the result of Gong Chi-yeong deciphering only a few messages.

Soon, Kangsu was able to scare Lester Ramos with the name he found there.

[It was nothing. Please get out safely.]

“Ok.”

Kangsu ran in the dark with the flash turned off.

* * *

It was late at night.

Kangsu and Jack were sitting on the sofa in the CEO’s office at Camo Investment, after all the employees had left work.

Woo-woo-woo-woo-

When the phone rang, Kangsu checked the screen of the phone and answered it on the speaker phone.

“Kangsu, how have you been? Have they been handled well?”

Simon’s voice came out of Kang-soo’s face when he answered the phone. In the meantime, Simon disguised himself as Gangsu and went to work with Jack.

[Processed without problems.]

“Ha— that’s good.”

“You worked hard. Cap.”

Jack also encouraged me by the side.

[After finishing the equipment processing here, you will return to Korea around late afternoon tomorrow. No matter how late it is, around sixteen o’clock.]

“hmm… Can’t you come a little sooner?”

[Do you have any problem?]

It wasn’t even 48 hours since Gangsu was away. Even considering the time to return to Korea, there were about 16 hours left, and Edward would take care of anything that might happen within the company in the meantime.

“It’s nothing else, I just got a call from your family home for lunch tomorrow Saturday.”

[You mean lunch? ah… … .]

Simon’s disguise worked well for others. If the people you meet right in front of you are family, there is no choice but to have a high chance of your disguise being discovered.

“Will it be difficult?”

[It seems difficult in terms of time. Just because something happened, don’t put it off or refuse it.]

“I thought I would too. Kangsu, your cousin also got a call. Be sure to bring Jack.”

[You mean Jack? why is that… ah-]

It was not difficult for Kang-soo to understand why he needed Jack.

Simultaneously, Simon explained.

“Your aunt said she was preparing lunch.”

[Lunch… do you mean? Are you saying it wasn’t blocked at home?]

“I don’t know that far. Seeing as your cousins have even contacted you, something seems inevitable.”

The muffled sound of precipitation flowed over the receiver.

At the same time, Simon remembered the ‘Oriental Peach Pancake’ he had tasted last time at Kangsu’s home.

[How do I do this? Or just don’t go. Or did you send only Jack?]

“Only Jack?”

Simon met Jack’s eyes as he licked his lips across the street. It seemed that he was already hungry.

In the meantime, Simon pondered and continued talking again.

“For now, I’ll try to go too. It wouldn’t be good if I made a hole in my alibi for no reason.”

[Thank you for caring me. Don’t overdo it.]

The call ended just like that. In the last words, there was a lot of worry about Kang-soo.
