2. Huh? Then can I go too? (1)
“Why should I know? ”
“That way I can be sure that you won’t harm Lee Hyuk? ”
“Humans are strange creatures. Rather than demons, I don’t trust you. It sounds like horses to Humans are full of lies. ”
“Hard to deny. ”
“Okay, I’ll tell you what. ”
She smiles lightly.
Christopher’s heart trembled when he saw that smile.
‘This is crazy.’
I can’t believe my heart is beating just because I smiled a little. Christopher felt like he had gone back to being a 15-year-old boy.
“Him and me… ”
* * *
“Lee Ji-hyuk. ”
“Tsk?”
“I’m Christopher McClaren. He wants to talk to Lee Ji-hyuk right now. ”
“What’s wrong with him? ”
“… I’m not sure about that. I’m just asking for an urgent change. ”
“Hmm…. ”
It’s annoying.
If I answer that phone, I’m sure something will be bothering me.
Should I answer it?
“Say no. ”
“I told you I already have. ”
“Can’t you just say that a person has disappeared while you’re on the phone? ”
– Lee Ji-hyuk! Lee Hyuk, I can hear your voice.
“You have bright ears, old man. ”
Lee Hyuk frowned at Christopher’s vague voice on the handset.
“No, I have a lot to do right now…. ”
Lee Hyuk looked back at the presidents and tasted it.
The pores of those who saw the eyes became extinguished.
What did he think he was gonna do?
I couldn’t even predict what would have happened if that phone hadn’t been ringing.
Lee Hyuk walked nervously and took the phone away from the secretary.
“Why!”
Lee Hyuk yelled as much as he could.
– Lee Ji-hyuk!
“Yes, it’s Lee Lee Hyuk, Lee Hyuk. So let me make this simple. What’s going on?”
― I need you to come to America right now. Washington.
Lee Hyuk’s face distorted.
“Mister! You said you were retiring. ”
– I was.
“Then why don’t you retire and stay gross and harass people! Don’t call me after you retire. Go home and play with your grandchildren!
― My grandchildren are all grown up…. No, it’s not important! Anyway, I think you should come to America now.
“So why? ”
― I can’t tell you why.
“You’ve got to be kidding!”
Lee Hyuk shouted and hung up. I didn’t have to take that call.
RRRR.
However, as soon as the phone is disconnected, the bell rings again.
“Knng… ”
Lee Hyuk answered the phone and shouted.
“No, seriously, what’s wrong with me! ”
― Lee Lee Hyuk, this is a serious situation.
“I’m worse! I’m worse! Oh, come on! ”
― You know I’m not the kind of person to call to ask for a favor.
“I don’t know. I thought you said it was nothing.
― Nothing special…….
Is the Demon King supposed to call the zombie apocalypse nothing?
Christopher had a lot to say, but now was not the time to elaborate.
― Lee Hyuk, on my honor. Something big is happening here right now. I need Lee Hyuk’s help.
“I mean, what’s the big deal? ”
– I can’t say that with my own mouth.
“Oh……. ”
Lee Hyuk scratched his head.
I wanted to scream out what the hell you were talking about, but at this point, I didn’t like the idea of what was going on.
“Hnng…. ”
Lee Hyuk makes a sound.
“I can’t talk, but it’s urgent, right? ”
– Yes!
So the person who caused the situation he said was urgent is watching Christopher.
My head is prickly.
“How bad is it? ”
– You have to drag them all.
“Ha……. ”
So, I’m guessing the situation has changed greatly since the Horse Clan….
“No, it’s not a popular restaurant on Earth, it’s full of local kids. ”
Then why should Lee Hyuk solve it?
If you are dragged here again, it means that you should shoot all over the city every time something happens in the future.
I never hated that.
“The United States is a great nation. Let’s take care of it. ”
– Lee, Lee Hyuk! This can only be solved by Lee Hyuk.
“I’m not some philanthropist, and I’m not going if I don’t go. ”
Don’t hang up the phone! On what condition? I’ll listen to anything. There’s a national coalition being held hostage here.
“I don’t know about that. It doesn’t matter to me whether he dies or not, so take care of it. ”
– Lee Ji-hyuk! I’ll listen to whatever conditions you want! Please think again!
“No, I……. ”
At that moment, someone’s hand suddenly pushed in and pulled the handset out of Lee Hyuk’s ear.
No, I don’t think so…
Lee Hyuk, who saw the face of the person who stole the handset, trembled.
“When did you get here? ”
“I just got here. I’ll take care of this for now, so take a break. ”
“I’m not going! ”
“Yes, you should rest. ”
“… Wow, I can’t even hear people’s ears, look at that! ”
“Hahaha.”
The person who took the phone was Jung-hoon Choi.
“You have to listen to the terms first. That’s the basics, isn’t it? ”
“No! I am! ”
At that time, someone grabbed Lee Hyuk’s hand and pulled it all the way up.
“Huh?”
“Here, I got you a Coke. Sit here and eat this. ”
“Am I a cola bear? Just give me a Coke and I’ll love it. ”
“Aren’t you going to drink? If you’re not gonna drink it, I will. ”
“I want some.”
Jung Jae-min grabbed Lee Hyuk’s arm with a slight smile.
“Come sit down and eat, come sit down. ”
“Yes.”
“Good boy.”
Jung Jeong-hoon quickly put the handset in her ear as she led Lee Hyuk to the corner skillfully.
“Mr. McClaren, I’m Choi Jung-hoon. ”
– Christopher, please. I won’t say a word, but I want you to send Lee Ji-hyuk to Washington right now.
“We don’t negotiate first, do we? ”
– It’s urgent. It’s urgent!
“Hmm……. ”
Choi Jung-hoon shed a tearful voice.
Christopher has always been a voice of regret to himself, but he has always been very clear about what he will give.
His pride and pride in carrying the great nation of America on his back set him straight. And he was the type who wouldn’t bow down to anyone.
However, Christopher was asking urgently, ignoring all of Christopher’s procedures and conditions. Usually, this is the biggest time you can tear it off. It’s your best chance of listening to everything you’re singing.
“Very well. What should we consider?” ”
– Bring all power, all available power.
“I’ll do that. We’ll contact you when we’re ready. ”
– Thank you, Mr. Choi.
“You’re welcome.”
Choi Jung-hoon hung up on me.
“Phew……. ”
When Lee Hyuk saw the scene, he opened his mouth like it was ridiculous.
“What are you doing? He’ll give you anything, and you won’t even tell me what’s going on? ”
“This is not the time. ”
“What’s that supposed to mean? ”
“When people are in a hurry, there’s more to get. But when the urgency is gone, the only grudge remains. That’s why you shouldn’t take terms from someone who’s really in a hurry. ”
“… What are you saying? ”
“Have a Coke, Coke. ”
“Yes.”
When Lee Hyuk took the cola can to his mouth and swallowed it, Jung Jung-hoon shook his hands toward Jung-hoon like Jung-min asked him to solve it quickly.
‘Since when has he handled Lee Hyuk so well? ’
I had to give Lee Hyuk a first class training certificate.
Seeing Lee Hyuk sitting quietly eating coke because he was always so anxious to let go, something is strange and awkward.
“Minister.”
“Speak.”
The Secretary of Defense awaits Jung-hoon’s words.
“By the way, what about our Prelate? ”
“I went to the Oval Office. ”
“Yes? Why are all the others here and only our Prelate has gone somewhere else?” ”
“… Just pretend you don’t know. ”
Choi Jung-hoon, who intuitively thought it was related to Lee Hyuk, said. You don’t have to dig in and sprinkle salt on a sick person’s chest.
“I think I need to go overseas. Please allow me.”
“Ask the President directly for that. Isn’t he in his seat? ”
Choi Jung-hoon turned his head and looked at Yoon Young-min.
‘Well, people need to have faith. ’
Secretary of Defense or KSF’s director was a man who did his job well, despite being beaten by Lee Hyuk. If it weren’t for them, South Korea, which was powerless, would not have survived without damage.
However, Yoon Young-min was an unqualified president by his standards.
His inability to take any action against Lee Yi Hyuk is being praised worldwide.
Because the NDF and the Pentagon are running around sweating their feet off.
No, it’s because Lee Hyuk is not interested in foreign countries or water insults. If someone other than Lee Hyuk had that kind of power, he would not be a Korean citizen.
But once you’re elected president of the people, you have to treat him. The elected official, no matter how much he hates it, represents the will of his people.
“Sir, we have a request for backup from the United States. I think I need to go. Please excuse me. ”
Yoon Young-min’s eyebrows twitched.
I don’t have anything that bothers me, but I feel strangely bad. Should I say there’s no respect for the tone?
Yoon Young-min had not been feeling well for a while.
I was already very upset when I dealt with Lee Hyuk, an Ahjussi, but he has been treated like a barley bag since the call came in from the United States.
Although it was said that he was not involved, this was indeed his office.
Even in a normal household, it’s against the courtesy of the homeowners to negotiate with foreign officials at the Chungwa University.
“Did you say Choi Jung-hoon? ”
“Yes, I’m Choi Jung-hoon. ”
“NDF?”
“Yes, I’m the deputy director. ”
Yoon Young-min was openly playing.
“Then you know I’m your line manager, right? Where I am the president of one country and your commanding officer, how dare you negotiate with another country on your own terms. ”
“ ……. ”
Choi Jung-hoon lost his words.
I can’t believe that Yoon Young Min would say such a common sense. It was too different from the image he had in mind, but he was absolutely right.
“Oh, I……. ”
Even Jung-hoon couldn’t find an excuse to defend himself.
“Your young friend got cocky playing with the giants. There’s no escort. ”
“I’m sorry.”
“Back off. It’s not your call to make. I won’t hold you responsible, but don’t take any further action on this. ”
“But, Mr. President, ”
“Can’t you hear me? ”
Choi Jung-hoon clenched his lips.
Focusing on grinding Lee Hyuk, of course, I did not take care of what to do.
The most important thing for Yoon Young-min is that his power as president is not violated. It was natural for him to fly out of his eyes because he seemed to ignore him in front of Yoon Young-min.
What do we do? ’
It was not a big problem for him to fly out of Yoon Young-min’s eyes, but it was a problem for him to slow down his support for the United States.
Given Christopher’s urgent voice, it’s only a matter of time.
Yoon Young-min Han didn’t seem to want to have a conversation with Jeong Hoon Choi.
“Huh? Can I go, too? ”
Choi Jung-hoon closed his eyes slightly.
I can’t help but notice!
Yi Hyuk, Nice shot!
