Chapter 231: The Secret Society Prepares For Every Situation (1)
After hearing Nguyen’s decision,
Guided by Laichai, we went to a nearby cafe, took some photos, and had tea separately—I with Yun Hye-ra, and Laichai with Nguyen. Then, Yun Hye-ra and I headed to our booked accommodation.
“Hey, Nguyen.”
“Yes.”
“Nguyen? Are you from Vietnam?”
“Ah. May I say who I am?”
“If it’s about Mr. Laichai.”
“I am such a person.”
“!!!!”
Screeeech.
The car suddenly came to an abrupt halt.
Fortunately, there were no cars behind us, so we could move forward again without any trouble. Laichai gaped, staring at Nguyen, who had taken off his Ectoplasm Infimask, through the rearview mirror.
“My goodness. My god. To think I was having tea alone with the greatest hero of this country. My, how could this be...!”
Thinking about it, Nguyen was as popular as Gwang Ik Gong in Korea, so I understood Laichai’s sudden stop.
“Haha, this is something. Sorry about the sudden braking. I was so surprised, I couldn’t help myself.”
“Not having a sudden acceleration is lucky enough. It’s fine. It’s Nguyen’s fault for taking that off without saying not to be startled.”
“...You talk about Nguyen as if it’s nothing. Are national intelligence agents ‘such people’? Ah, never mind. Don’t want to hit the brakes suddenly again.”
Laichai avoided learning about Yun Hye-ra’s and my true identities.
He might guess who we are, but he probably couldn’t guess our villain ranks or names precisely.
“...Sigh. Never thought I’d see such a day.”
Still, Laichai was astounded.
“Let’s... put it back on.”
“Understood.”
“...And I’ll keep speaking the same way. Suddenly using honorifics because I know your identity might catch the attention of others.”
Laichai kept taking deep breaths to calm himself, and Nguyen put the Ectoplasm Infimask back on, revealing his white teeth.
“Mr. Manager? You called my name...”
“I had something to say to Hero Nguyen. Driver, please go slowly.”
Once the speed had appropriately slowed down, I took out a used tablet.
“Hero Nguyen. How long has it been since we met?”
“...About half a day, around 6 hours.”
“That’s right. 6 hours. A person of interest has been walking around without his ThaiWatch for 6 hours. Laplace might start getting nervous.”
“......!”
It’s not Taeguk Watch.
It’s ThaiWatch.
The manufacturer was Haegneul from Korea, but the flag reflected on the watch’s glass was the flag of Thailand.
“Where is your ThaiWatch now?”
“...At home. Today, I took a leave.”
“You came prepared. Excellent.”
And of course, Nguyen joined us without his ThaiWatch.
“But your opponent probably knew your intentions and movements. They lost you the moment you left the airport. And now, they’re frantically looking for you.”
I pointed to cars and bikes passing us by.
“Kosian, among others including plainclothes police, are looking for you. It’s quite obvious. Those looking for the missing Nguyen and those he contacted.”
A Kosian in academy uniform, people delivering food on motorcycles, convenience store workers, and even traffic police were all checking people.
“There’s the police. Mr. Laichai. Just go. Tell them as it is.”
“......I’ll trust you.”
Screeeech.
Laichai stopped in front of the traffic-controlling police and rolled down the window.
“What’s the matter?”
“A villain has stolen a car and fled; we’re conducting a search. We’d appreciate your cooperation.”
“Geez. In this day and age, what’s the point of stealing a car...”
Muttering, Laichai handed over his ThaiWatch, and the police officer matched it with his own.
“Mr. Laichai... why did you come this way?”
“We were visiting recommended restaurants for these guests. They’re a newlywed couple from Korea.”
“Sawasdee krap.”
“Villains always force painful choices on heroes. It’s regrettable but unavoidable. Villains have a way of doing this to heroes. So, what will you do? Will you save that woman, or will you hide your identity until the end?”
“.......”
“There’s no time to hesitate, Hero Nguyen. That villain is targeting you, and if you don’t come out, he will continue his rampage.”
[Come out—Nguyen—! Today, we settle the score from that day, right here!!]
On the rooftop.
Pupatpong held only the neck of the hostage, extending over the edge of the rooftop.
If he let go, she would fall from the multi-story building and die instantly.
“Whether Laplace made a deal with the law, deliberately loosened the guard’s watch to facilitate the escape, or it was truly a coincidence, if you don’t appear, everyone will be puzzled. Then...even civilians will start looking for you.”
“.......”
“Will you come out, or not? If you don’t choose within three seconds, I’ll handle it my way—”
“I will come out.”
Nguyen removed his ectoplasm mask.
“But please, make sure Laichai doesn’t get involved. Somehow make it look like I appeared from somewhere else...”
“Good choice.”
A hero was.
Someone who, despite being in an unfair situation, strove for justice.
“But Nguyen, you didn’t need to come out. The hostage held by that man is a Kosian.”
“What do you mean...?”
“It’s not just any hostage, but a staged act to lure you out.”
“Really...?”
Nguyen’s eyes began to waver.
“Isn’t this just your ruse to reassure me, Manager?”
Because there was a woman visibly being tormented by the villain right in front of him, Nguyen started to doubt my words.
“Are you sure that when I ignore this woman, Pupatpong will safely release her?”
“.......”
“Manager!”
“Of course, she won’t be safe.”
Yun Hye-ra coldly responded instead of me.
“Even if it’s a staged act, that man will harm the hostage. Whether there’s an agreement or not, he will continue to harm the hostage and wreak havoc.”
“Then...!”
“But the manager has determined that you don’t need to go out. Do you know why?”
Yun Hye-ra smirked and pointed outside.
“Because we won’t create a dilemma where you need to intervene.”
“What does that—”
[Roaaaar!!]
Villain Pupatpong’s scream echoed through the air.
Having lost his hostage, he clutched his shoulder and fell off the building, while the hostage was rescued by someone who suddenly appeared.
“That person is....”
[To have an accident as soon as I arrive in Phuket. Really.]
Nguyen was dumbfounded as he looks at the woman in a black suit holding the hostage.
“Why is that person in Phuket...?”
“If we don’t want your absence to be felt, we naturally have to mobilize another Class A.”
“Madness. I never imagined I’d see that person here.”
Laichai jubilantly exclaimed as he watched the Class A hero who subdued Pupatpong.
“Tran Hung Dao!!”
Affiliated with the Special Administrative Region of Vietnam.
A hero dispatched from Malaysia.
“There are no borders in protecting people. Whether she shouts like that or not, there’s no rule that says she has to be the one to step forward.”
Class A+. Known nationally as the ‘King of Prosperity.’
Also known as ‘Tran Hung Dao.’
“Nguyen, we called her to support you.”
Naturally.
A hero cooperating with a secret society.
