Episode 301
“It’s here.”
When we go down to the basement, Martin Park is the first to show off his skills.
There were a few more customers in the basement bar, but Suho didn’t pay any attention and sat down next to Martin Park.
“Do you buy alcohol, teacher?”
“Is it really that important for someone who makes a lot of money?”
“Where does a civil servant get money?”
“This is sick. Then make me laugh. Then I’ll buy it today.”
“Is that so?”
At those words, Suho looked at the bartender and said.
“Vodka martini, shaken, not stirred.”
“Phew!”
At Suho’s order, Martin Park spit out the alcohol he was drinking without realizing it.
“Wow… … I really never thought of that. How could someone so young know that?”
“Because I like classic movies.”
“007 is a classic movie… … Well, since there are no more series, it is a classic movie if it is to be believed.”
Martin Park is old.
When he was young, the 007 series was not a classic film, but by modern standards, with time passing and great upheaval, 007 is a culture of the past that is no longer produced as a series.
He said with a smirk.
“So, what about the stuff?”
“There are only a few, but take a look.”
Suho continued his explanation while taking out the materials he had collected.
“This was brought from the Kaesong Industrial Complex… … .”
As the explanation continued, Martin Park’s eyes lit up.
I thought it would be possible to create rich colors because the materials definitely had a story.
Then Suho took out a few mossy stones.
“This is a stone brought from Guryong Falls in Geumgangsan Mountain.”
“Oh, when you say Geumgangsan, is that the Geumgangsan I know?”
“Yes, that Geumgangsan after-meal view.”
“Oh… … .”
In addition, they presented flowers and leaves picked from Geumgangsan Mountain.
Actually, these aren’t that great.
Suho was in a hurry, so he just brought it.
Still, the reason Martin Park was so excited was because of the source and story of the materials.
‘It doesn’t seem like much of a difference to my eyes… … This is why the world of art is difficult.’
I guess there’s something I don’t know.
A vodka martini was served, shaken rather than stirred, and Suho drank it while waiting for Martin Park to review the ingredients.
After a while, as he carefully put the ingredients in, Suho asked naturally.
“But did you come here alone?”
“Then you come here alone, who are you coming with?”
“Really?”
“then?”
“If what you are saying now is a lie, I will pretend the rest of the material never happened?”
“What is that… … .”
“Just be honest with me. Unless this place is owned by the bartender here, I doubt he’d be making alcohol in Korea.”
“… … .”
At that moment, the inside of the bar became quiet.
But Suho paid no attention to it at all, took out his civil servant ID from his bosom, placed it on the bar table, and spoke to the bartender.
“I’ll need to verify your identity for a moment. I’m Ahn Su-ho, the head of the special unit of the Daeheonhyeop Special Investigation Unit. Judging from the extremely high magical power concentration I can sense, I think you’re an Awakened One, but among the domestic players I know, there’s no one with this level of magical power. So, could you show me your ID and player ID?”
At Suho’s request, the bartender looked at Suho for a moment, smiled, and asked back.
“What do you mean?”
“Hey, why is someone who knows doing this?”
“Haha, I have no idea what you’re talking about… … .”
The bartender’s soft ignorance.
Suho, who had been laughing along with those words, hardened his expression.
“I’m not joking. Give it to me quickly.”
“… … .”
The bartender looks at Martin Park as he asks for ID.
Then Martin Park sighed and said.
“Well… I knew it wasn’t going to be an ordinary bet, but I didn’t think it would be this bad.”
“You knew?”
“Yeah. I knew it. But don’t be so cautious. This person here… … .”
“I will introduce myself.”
The bartender cut off Martin Park’s introduction by showing his palm.
Then he looked at Suho and said.
“I’m late with the introduction. I didn’t intend to introduce myself like this, but my name is Albert Kim, a player affiliated with the United Nations.”
“Are you from the UN?”
“Yes.”

“I see. So, what about your ID and player ID?”
“yes?”
“How do I know whether you are the UN or not? Everyone can prove it with words.”
“ah…….”
He opened his mouth for a moment at Soo-ho’s determination, then chuckled and held out his passport and UN staff ID.
Suho looked at it and asked.
“It’s elaborate.”
“Because it’s real.”
It was real.
Because I saw white energy from him as he answered.
‘If you lied, you would have seen black energy.’
That’s why I said it was sophisticated on purpose.
Even though Suho was a regressor, he didn’t have the ability to distinguish between forged passports or certificates that were deliberately made by experts.
Suho said as he returned the passport and employee ID.
“Then are the people behind you all part of the UN?”
“… … You knew?”
“Then you don’t know?”
“Wow, you’re too sharp. Calm down.”
“It has to be sharp.”
“yes?”
“Usually, when these large players enter the country, we get a call. Each and every one of these large players has the power of a war weapon. However, I am in a position to oversee everything, and yet I have not heard any news of your entry. So from now on, you will have to be careful with your words.”
Suho, who had been speaking, opened his eyes sharply.
At the same time.
[Pressure is activated.]
thud!
The pressure was triggered.
Then a peculiar sense of oppression came over everyone in the bar.
“Depending on your answer, you may be arrested immediately as a criminal.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“… … .”
Silence from UN players.
Suho was sincere.
And did they also feel Suho’s sincerity?
After a moment of silence, Albert spoke.
“I see. I’m sorry. We certainly were rude.”
“Yes, but I won’t accept an apology in name only. Please explain.”
“Yes, let me explain… … First of all, as you said, this visit was a secret entry. However, I would like to inform you that we did not enter the country secretly on our own, but rather consulted with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs first.”
“You said there was an agreement with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?”
“Yes, it was our request to not pass it on to the Constitutional Court.”
“You heard that? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs?”
“Yes, that’s right. This is a certificate of confirmation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I just got it issued just in case… … Here it is.”
Albert presents the certificate of confirmation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
I see white energy.
That’s not a lie.
So I shut my eyes tightly.
‘I’m going crazy, really.’
Even if the other party is the UN, how can they proceed like this even though the procedures are in place?
There is a limit to how much you can stoop.
I can hear the sound of our country’s prestige falling from here.
After Suho read the certificate, he handed it back to me and said.
“Why did you ask me to stop?”
“It is to meet with the representative players of Korea, including Manager Ahn Su-ho, as I requested in writing in advance. Also, as I mentioned earlier, many high-level players had to move this time, so we had no choice but to proceed like this.”
To some extent, I understand.
The movement of big players is always being watched by other countries, so their movement to other countries is a big issue in itself.
But even if it was a secret entry, is there really a need to keep it a secret even from the Constitutional Court?
Suho said as if he didn’t understand.
“So why? Avoiding the gaze of other countries is avoiding, and there is no need to keep it a secret from our Daeheonhyeop.”
“that is…….”
That was when.
“Albert, let me explain.”
Instead of Albert, who hesitated to answer, one of the men who had been disguised as a customer nearby stepped forward.
He was a typical blue-eyed American who asked Suho in English.
“Do you speak English well?”
“Yes, I do.”
Suho also answered in English.
And his eyes widened at the diction that was beyond his expectations, then turned around again.
“Hello. My name is Finn and I am also a player from the UN.”
pin.
He also had a considerable magical power level.
Suho said.
“This is An Su-ho. Would you please explain it to me now?”
“To be honest, it was just to observe you.”
“Are you observing me?”
“Have you heard anything about our upcoming visit?”
“I know more or less. I heard that you are very interested in the purification unification operation that will be implemented this time, as well as in the players representing Korea.”
“To be exact, I came to visit you because I was interested in you.”
Finn, unlike Albert, had no hesitation in conveying the facts.
Suho also nodded without being too surprised, as he had caught on to their intentions.
“Of course. It would be too obvious if I were to watch it alone.”
“… … You have quite a bit of self-esteem?”
“There is no reason to be low.”
“Hehe, I hope you have the skills you say you have… … Then, since we’ve come this far, I’ll speak frankly. Mr. Suho, we at the UN are very curious about you. So, rather than a formal setting, would it be okay if we could check out how great of a person you are in a more relaxed atmosphere?”
Finn’s blunt question.
Thanks to you, I was able to find out.
The interest rate is the highest here.
But Albert, Finn, and everyone else here were people who did not exist in Suho’s memories.
The UN’s interest in Korea was something that happened much further in the future, and these were not among the UN players that Suho had seen at the time.
‘Maybe there were people who died in the meantime.’
When I think about it that way, I feel sorry for the people in front of me.
Of course, he might not have died.
It is possible that he was pushed out of a key position by political infighting within the UN and that Soo-ho did not see him.
But anyway, if you don’t remember them, then they aren’t that important.
In that sense, the fact that it was the same in Soo-ho’s standards was the same no matter what.
And because that feeling worked to some extent, I decided to accept his request.
“Okay, then.”
“You’re as cool as your self-esteem. Then shall we move?”
“Do you know a good place?”
“Of course. Would I have called you here without that much preparation?”
“That’s thorough. Then, before we move, I have one question for you.”
“Feel free to ask.”
At the words, “Ask comfortably,” Suho shifted his gaze to look at Martin Park, not Finn.
“Teacher, are you also a member of the UN?”
Martin Park shrugged at the question.
“no way.”
“Then why did you grant their request?”
“It’s simple. I made a deal.”
“Deal?”
“There was some paint material that I wanted, so I got it for you.”
Suho burst into laughter at those words.
People are so consistent.
But for that reason, I thought it was better.
“So, what do you want to tell me?”
“I’m sorry I lied to you.”
“Okay, but I won’t accept an apology in name only. So, as I said before, I will consider it as if there were no more supplies.”
“What? Hey, that’s it!”
“Let’s go.”
Suho, who finished speaking, climbs the stairs first.
“Ahh!!”
Martin Park’s howling is heard from behind.
