69 – Discipline 24. The Leading Manager Follows Through to the End (6)

“Manager?”

The window was opened.

Haye Song stuck her head out of her window and looked up at me.

Other executives were also in front of the window with Yesong.

“Chief, that… ?”

The executives looked surprised when they saw the low-level goblin in my hands.

I didn’t care and continued the conversation with the low-level goblin.

“Moon Chae-yeon’s hideout?”

[Huh! Get caught! Because I was bullied by a white man!]

The low-level goblin flailed his small arms

‘White man… It must be about him.’

I had no choice but to know who it was.

There is only one person who is related to the headmaster, who can defeat the Five Hundredseo, and who can be called the ‘White Man.’

Among the Spartoys, there was only Seo Kang-jin, the strongest.

As seen in the mind map, White Paper has been keeping a close eye on Gangjin.

It was obvious that the plan would go wrong the moment Kang Jin stepped forward.

To use a metaphor, Gangjin was like a grim reaper that would always defeat the player in the game, or a mine that would cause the game over if it touched it.

In other words, Baek Seo was bullied by Kang Jin.

It was no different from saying that my bad premonition had come true.

“Tell me where the hideout is.”

[Mu Chaeyeon’s hideout is located in the Gwanal district of Majyeong High School!]

“Mahyeon High School jurisdiction?”

[Yes… ! I don’t know the details!]

“…”

Minhyuk stuck his head out the window.

The guy’s face showed fear.

“Ah, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a trap… ! That’s a goblin!? Of the six sinners! “I don’t believe it, manager!”

Is it a trap?

“Well.”

My thoughts were focused on the fact that it was not.

Like the jurisdiction of other major academies, the jurisdiction of Maheon High School is very large.

If you had planned to lure me into a trap, would you have given such a vague answer?

Why would Kim Dal-bi bother sending a low-level goblin to lie like this in the first place?

It was a very unnatural situation.

It means that there are interests behind this incident that I don’t know about.

‘Even if it was a trap in the first place, there’s nothing we can do about it.’

There is no way to find out the whereabouts of the white paper right now.

Even if it was a trap, I couldn’t avoid it.

After all, I have the ability to move through space. If I had to, I could run away.

[Take care! Everything is done, mission accomplished!]

All said and done, mission complete.

The low-level goblin stretched her arms upward and raised happily.

Soon the guy’s body turned into smoke from his toes. Since he had carried out all of Kim Dal-bi’s orders, he was ready to leave.

“Let me ask you one more question. Why did Kim Dal-bi send you?”

[I don’t know about that… ! I want you to take me with you.]

“What? For a moment… !”

The low-level goblin completely turned into smoke and escaped from my hands.

You can’t catch a goblin whose purpose is not combat anyway. What can I do when the reality disappears?

The night wind caressed my skin.

Soon, a question surfaced in my head.

‘Kim Dal-bi… Are you hoping that Oh Baek-seo is safe?’

Either with good intentions or with bad intentions.

Dalby seemed to be hoping that Baek Seo would not experience any unpleasant events.

‘I don’t know.’

I couldn’t guess the reason at all.

Let’s hold off on questions that we can’t answer no matter how much we think about them.

“Did you hear?”

She squatted down on the window sill and asked her executives.

“Yes… “Can I trust that?”

She asked Yesong with a puzzled expression.

“Even if it’s a trap, it goes. If something happens, you just have to get out… Hmm?”

At that time, I felt a sign of popularity from below.

The executives and I turned our heads downward.

For some reason, I saw students installing air cushions.

“Oh, senior!”

A female student smiled warmly and waved her hand happily at me. She was an Ise child who walked around with her eyes narrowed.

Looking closely, the students who installed her air cushion with her seemed to be her service wives.

“Giggles… ! Hey hey, are you trying to make a drastic choice on the topic of the leader!”

“Giggle… ! If you have any difficulties, we will kindly advise you… !”

“Tsk tsk… ! Why don’t you jump down, old man? If you have the confidence to go to the afterlife even in front of our ten, ten, one, air cushion! Now, it’s a contest!”

They…

What are you doing here… ?

Weeeing.

Suddenly the smartphone vibrated.

Seeing as Se-Ah was fiddling with her smart phone, it seemed like the guy had sent her a text message.

She confirmed it right away.

[ Lee Se-ah: Senior~ I’m here to prevent suicide! ]

[ Lee Se-ah: But I think I just saw something strange ]

[Ahn Woo-jin: It’s no big deal]

[ Lee Se-ah: It seemed like nothing special? ]

[Lee Se-ah: Well, we’ll talk about that later]

[ Lee Se-ah: Are you looking for Vice President Oh Baek-seo? ]

The hairs all over her body her her her her stood up.

‘What… ?’

How did you know?

‘Did you think about my condition?’

I remembered her saying that she had found me and told her executives.

I don’t know how she found it, but anyway.

I was in a bad state just now, and White Paper wasn’t with me for a few days. SeAH would have been able to guess well.

Se-Ah boasted enough information to be able to find me.

[Ahn Woo-jin: You were constantly watching]

[Lee Se-ah: Again haha]

[ Lee Se-ah: We’re stalking each other, right? ]

[Lee Se-ah: I really like this relationship haha]

[Ahn Woo-jin: …]

[Lee Se-ah: I will send the kids back]

[ Lee Se-ah: Would you like to discuss it with me? ]

“Emergency air cushion~. It boasts excellent performance. I often carry suicide prevention tools with me. You might meet someone with the wrong idea on the street, right? No way… I didn’t know that the other person would be a senior. After all, it’s something to live and see!”

“…”

“This… , Are you perhaps moved by the junior’s kindness in considering his senior’s life?”

“No.”

Leading department executive office.

I brought Se-ah Lee and served her tea. The other volunteer students had been sent away by SeAH.

The executives of the leadership department quietly watched Se-Ah. Except for Yu Yu-ha, she didn’t seem to be on guard.

“It looks just like a doll… The manager’s eyes will roll… Yay!”

When Yesong started talking nonsense, Minhyuk struck the back of Yesong’s head with the blade of his hand.

“Pay attention… !”

“What did I…” ” !”

Yesong and Minhyuk bickered quietly.

Se-Ah looked at the two people and smiled brightly.

“Thank you. “You are beautiful too.”

“Me?”

“Yes. “You’re pretty.”

“Hmm… , Hehe. Well, I’m just stating the obvious… !”

Yesong laughed as if he was embarrassed by Se-Ah’s nonsense. It was because she was weak to praise.

To me, it looked like he lacked intelligence.

“…”

“…”

Minhyuk and Doha stared at Yesong in silence, as if they were dumbfounded.

“So, you came running when you saw me standing at the window?”

SeAh asked as he sat down across from her.

She leaned back against the backrest and crossed her arms.

“Yes. She was having an after-party in her club room after finishing her night volunteer work. “It happened to be across from our club room, so I had a good view.”

“Okay… Did it look like I was going to jump?”

“You’ve been out of sorts lately, haven’t you? “A perfect person like Director Seondo suddenly became so broken, wouldn’t there be any suspicion?”

Persuasive… There is.

“I couldn’t see Vice President Oh Baek-seo, who was always hanging around? So, I thought, ‘Is there something serious between Vice President Oh Baek-seo and Senior Woo-jin?'”

“Manager.”

Doha called me.

It wasn’t a nuance to talk to.

The disappearance of Oh Baek-seo is the problem of the leader.

In many ways, it was not good to inform people other than the leadership team.

Once information is put into your mouth, it cannot be taken away. Moreover, this incident was also a very sensitive issue.

In other words, I had no choice but to be cautious about telling things to outsiders.

There is a high risk of causing unexpected problems.

So, Doha warned him not to talk about the situation.

Moreover, Doha felt that Se-Ah could not be trusted.

In my experience, Doha’s sense has never been wrong.

That feeling may be correct this time too.

SeAH will become a great evil that dominates the black market in the future.

‘But…’

Looking back on what happened so far.

In terms of giving and receiving help, I tend to think favorably of Se-Ah.

She already owed this guy a big debt.

From noble mtl dot come

He lightly raised his hand and showed the back of his hand to Doha. It meant that I would take care of it myself.

It also meant that I would take full responsibility even if things went wrong.

Se-ah smiled meaningfully and gave Do-ha a look, then she looked at me again.

“Sir, maybe I can help you?”

“What?”

That one word from Se-Ah immediately caught the nerves of me and her executives.

“For now, let me take a light guess at the situation. “It’s just my imagination, and it may be speculation.”

Se-ah said, crossing her arms on the table. Then she raised her right hand, extended her index finger upwards, and began to speak in an explanatory tone.

“Vice President Oh Baek-seo couldn’t bear it anymore and left because Senior Woo-jin was so involved with the six criminals. Aim for the target. The first target will be the technomancer who recently fought senior Woojin. The problem is that he left without saying that he would move alone, leaving the leadership team in a dark position. Is that right?”

“That…”

When Doha tries to answer for you.

“That’s right.”

“Director? For a moment… !”

I said yes.

Doha was surprised, and Se-ah smiled.

“And the being that senior Woojin caught in front of the window was a goblin, right?”

“Did you know that too?”

“How can you not know? It’s the power of six sinners. And to continue the speculation, because of the timing, Vice President Oh Baek-seo must have had trouble with the six criminals. It looks like the goblin was talking about Vice Manager Oh Baek-seo’s whereabouts. Is that right?”

She nodded.

“But we know little. I don’t even know why the goblin informed me of White Paper’s situation. It might be a trap.”

“Where did you say it was?”

“To the technomancer’s hideout in the jurisdiction of Mahyeon High School.”

“How do you plan to find it?”

“The Technomancer’s abilities require a lot of electromagnetic waves. So there must be an abnormally high amount of electromagnetic waves in the hideout area. Or that there are a lot of electromagnetic waves even in places where they are not likely to be present. “I plan to look for such a place.”

Se-ah grinned.

“It’s good. Senior, as I said last time, I specialize in finding people. You can trust me.”

“Okay…”

Tuk.

Suddenly, Doha put his hand on my shoulder.

“Hey, manager… Why did you sit around talking about all that?”

The tone was full of irritation.

Of course, Se-Ah is an outsider and not a leader. It was natural for Doha to express its dissatisfaction her

However, SeAH has some useful power.

As mentioned above, he has been of great help to me so far.

If Se-Ah had wanted to harm me from the beginning, she wouldn’t have made me feel so indebted.

So she thought she could seek help in this matter.

Above all.

“I trust SeAH.”

To be honest, I just wanted to believe it.

It seemed like a big reason why the psychological barrier between Se-ah and her was broken down.

Of course, it was not unconditional trust.

She had no intention of letting down her guard toward Se-Ah itself.

Se-Ah is a person who will one day dominate the black market and become a great evil.

If Se-ah tried to commit an inhumane act, she was prepared to put a knife to her throat at any time.

“What… ?”

Perhaps my firm answer was unexpected, and Doha was taken aback.

“Oh…”

Se-ah opened her mouth in admiration.

Of course, it wasn’t just for emotional reasons.

I continued speaking.

“And if the area under the jurisdiction of Maheon High School is enemy territory, it is difficult to operate only the leader team. It is a clear violation of sovereignty for the leadership team or student council to invade other jurisdictions. They are subject to immediate sanctions, and security drones will easily catch them. “If Mahyeon High School gets involved in a situation where you have to find the white paper, it’s going to be a headache.”

“So, I’m going to ask for help from people who aren’t in the leadership without being noticed?”

“Okay. The leadership staff must be kept to a minimum. Just take the grain with you.”

While we were talking, Minhyuk intervened.

“As for cooperating with Mahyeon High School… ?”

“Minhyuk, let’s do some thinking?”

“What?”

Yesong urged Minhyuk.

“This is an emergency situation where Baekseo Jjing may be in danger, but if you ask Mahyeon High School for help, we will help you as quickly as possible. Plus, there’s no evidence to show to request support. What can we say? ‘I heard from the six sinners that there is our White Paper Jjing in your house. So, I’m going to run amok at your house.’ Is there anything else to say besides this? If I were Maheon High School, I would be shocked. Well, it’s not like I’m throwing a tantrum…”

“That…”

“Also, if you want to ask for cooperation from Mahyeon High School, you have to submit approval to the student council here and go through the procedures… Wow. Relax, really?”

“…”

“Even if things go well and Mahyeon High School listens to us. Those are the kids who fought hard with us over jurisdictional issues, right? Don’t you remember how we showed our teeth and grew at each other during the exchange meeting? In this case, they will definitely be the best, but who knows what kind of attitude they will show? “Of course, we are burning inside, and the risk is too great.”

… !

Unbelievable…

“Chief, Doha Jjing? Why are you surprised?”

“Ha Ye-song, you said something called ‘thought’… ?”

“I have a brain too, manager… “Please at least treat me like a human being.”

Even though it was serious, it was surprising.

… Put that aside for now.

Moon Chae-yeon’s hideout will be full of all kinds of weapons, including chimeras.

It would be dangerous to operate the leadership department with minimal manpower, but the situation would definitely improve if SeAH’s organizational facilitator, or at least the service department, helped.

I looked at Doha again. The guy was still glaring at me seriously.

“Anyway, I take full responsibility. So please don’t object.”

“… Tch.”

In the end, Doha clicked his tongue and fell back.

“Ultimately, are you saying you need my help?”

Se-ah asked, tilting her head to the side. A sly smile was still plastered on her face.

“Okay. However, you may end up fighting the Six Sinners.”

“Are you okay. “I think your senior will win, right?”

“…”

I did not deny it.

Because I have to win anyway.

Because you can’t win.

“I get it. “Now tell me what you want.”

“Yes?”

She put her hands on the table and looked down at her corner.

I decided to try and say it out loud.

“Isn’t that why you’re offering to help me with this because you want something from me?”

Like a businessman who smells money.

“This… , I guess I don’t have that good of an impression on my senior? I need to work harder.”

Se-Ah let out a laugh.

“I suddenly found out that a friend of mine was in danger, so how can I, as a volunteer, just stay still? Also, I owe a huge debt to my senior. That’s surprisingly worth the price of one’s life.”

“If you’re talking about that train incident at the beginning of the semester, leave it aside.”

It was just a feeling, but it seemed like Se-Ah wanted something from me.

If there was such a thing, it was good for me.

You will definitely get help.

I also wanted to properly settle Ensea and her debt in the future.

“Anyway, if you want anything later, let me know. Because I also owe you a lot. “I will help you if I can.”

“Is that so, is that so~. “Is that what you were talking about?”

Se-ah nodded her head happily.

Her squinted eyes slowly opened, revealing red eyes for a moment.

It was a meaningful look, as if he was trying to see through my intentions.

“It’s heartwarming.”

Se-ah returned to her squinted eyes and smiled like a fox.

“Then, shall we postpone the discussion about debt settlement until later?”

“Yes.”

Se-ah held out her hand.

“Let’s try, senior. Cooperation.”

“… Please take care of me.”

I shook hands with Se-Ah.

The next day.

We are ready.
