Chapter 476
The Youngest Son of the Eunhae Trading Company Chapter 476
Chapter 476. Gongshin (3)
A warrior is basically a profession that involves physical labor. That means they know their bodies well.
Therefore, they know exactly which parts are painful when stimulated.
Seo Woo didn't stop with just one kick.
Puck! Puck! Puck!
He kicked his shins three more times, and each time, the sound of bones breaking could be heard.
Crack! Bang! Crunch!
As a result, the physician was foaming at the mouth and in pain to the point of wetting his pants.
All the areas Seo Woo-mu kicked were extremely painful pressure points.
Seeing that, I thought that the physician who had deceived Seo Woo-mu and Hong Geum-so must have suffered greatly as well.
Seo Woo-mu clasped his hands together and stepped back.
“Thank you for allowing me to act on my own.”
“It's fine. I understand.”
Thanks to you, I didn't have to get my hands dirty.
“So where are your other colleagues?”
“I don't know.”
“If you don't know, that means you have colleagues, right?”
“...!”
“You have two legs. And you have two arms.”
“That's obvious...”
“A normal person would tell you right away, even if only to avoid the pain, but I didn't know you enjoyed that kind of pain.”
Realizing what I meant, he said urgently.
“I'll tell you! I'll tell you! Ugh! I'll tell you!”
I realized once again how painful Seo Woo-musa's hands must have been.
The physician quickly revealed the locations of the others.
Their organization was called the Silver Army.
The name meant that they hid in the sand, implying their confidence that no one could easily find them, as well as their mockery.
It made sense that the organization had been around for decades.
But in the end, they were caught by the emperor in their previous lives and were completely wiped out.
Now they were being beaten by me.
There were about fifty of them, and their base was in Nanking.
Nanking... That's perfect.
I glanced at Gung-shin.
Realizing that this was a bigger deal than he had thought, he bit his lip.
He realized that this was not something he could handle on his own.
He closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them and knelt before me.
“Please help me.”
“What?”
“I cannot forgive the atrocities committed by those who destroyed my father and turned me into a black sword.”
“You want revenge.”
“Yes. But I have no power.”
He looked at me with shining eyes and begged me earnestly.
“So please lend me your power. Help me get revenge on them.”
I looked at him quietly and asked.
“What will you give me in return for lending you my power?”
“What?”
“You're not asking me to lend you my power for free, are you? As I said before, I am a merchant. I like things to be clear.”
He thought about my words and replied.
“All I have is my skill with a bow. If you agree, I will offer you my skill.”
Before I could even make a proposal, he offered his skill himself.
It was worth asking the physician about the size of their group.
“But isn't your father still alive? Can you make this decision without asking him?”
“Your Highness saved my father's life and prevented our family name from being disgraced. I know my father well, and I am certain he would support my decision.”
“I understand. Don't regret your decision.”
“I won't.”
“Then we'll write up the contract later...”
I turned my head and looked at the deceitful physician and said coldly.
“Tell me everything the Eunsaengdan has done so far. And tell me who ordered the assassination of the evil Dae-in.”
“Assassination? What are you talking about... How can you accuse an innocent person like that?”
“Ugh.”
I sighed.
“You think you can call them good people even though they harmed the family of Mister?”
“...Damn it.”
“And do you remember the question Mister asked earlier? How is he able to be here? If he had shot an arrow at the evil lord, he would be in prison right now.”
“...”
I replied with a smile.
“I stopped him. And I also subdued the man who was watching over Mister Confucius.”
Then I turned to the bodyguards and said,
“Bring him here.”
“Yes!”
They dragged the man they had knocked unconscious and threw him into the courtyard.
“So even if you don't answer, there are others here who will. Then why am I saying this?”
With that, he smiled and approached the deceitful physician.
“You enjoy pain, so I'll give you what you want. Seo Woo, warrior.”
“Yes!”
“You still have one leg and two arms left. You can break some bones without killing him.”
“I was planning to cut off his limbs anyway, so thank you.”
“You sons of bitches! What did I do to you? I was just trying to make a living!”
He yelled at the top of his lungs.
“Still, you shouldn't have made others cry tears of blood.”
“Ugh! You bastards!”
“Ah, I need to stop the bleeding. I keep hearing dogs barking.”
“Yes, sir.”
I said to the physician.
“So, when you feel like you want to confess everything, nod your head vigorously.”
Actually, punching the solar plexus is more effective, but that requires a fairly detailed knowledge of the inner arts.
If you're not careful, you could kill the target, so you have to be very careful.
That's why I only use it when I don't want to spill blood. Actually, there are countless other ways to cause pain.
It makes me seem like a villain, but so what?
As long as I don't suck the blood of others with malice, it's fine.
When Seo Woo began to crush the right arm of the evil physician, he nodded frantically.
Yeah, I knew you wouldn't last long.
You knew it would end like this, so why did you resist?
But I pretended not to see, and only released his right arm when it was completely crushed.
This was to completely break his spirit.
That way, he would reveal everything without hiding anything.
“Ugh, ugh, you bastards. I'll talk... I'll talk...”
“You still don't understand the situation.”
As I was about to call Seo Woo again, he begged me urgently.
“No, please! Let me speak! I beg you!”
“Pal-gap.”
“Yes! Did you call me?”
“Get a pen and paper and get ready to write.”
“Yes, sir!”
Pal-gap quickly got ready.
I didn't know if it was for decoration or actual use, but there happened to be writing utensils.
“Then let's start with the most recent incident.”
The deceitful physician confessed everything he could remember.
“That's all.”
“Very well. Then wake him up.”
“Yes, sir.”
While the bodyguards splashed water on him to bring him to his senses, I said to the physician.
“Do you know what cross-checking is?”
“...”
“It means listening to several people and finding errors. I don't like uncertainty.”
I said as I watched the man wake up from being splashed with water.
“Ask him, and if he left anything out, I'll break the other arm as well.”
“Ugh! There, there...”
“No useless talk.”
I immediately pressed his pressure point.
He screamed silently, but it was already too late.
That's why you should have done it when you had the chance.
Then I turned to the person who had given the order to Gung-shin and said,
“Do you see that?”
He looked at the physician, who was bound and covered in arrows, and swallowed hard with a tense expression.
Puk!
Yoo-eung-am stabbed his thigh with his sword and twisted it.
“Aaaah!”
At my signal, Yeo Eung-am withdrew his sword and pressed on the acupoints to stop the bleeding.
“The pain you are feeling now is not even a tenth of the pain that physician suffered.”
And it is not even a hundredth of the pain that Gung-shin and his subordinate suffered.
“What... what do you want?”
Perhaps because he saw the battered state of the physician, he gave up without a fight.
I picked up a piece of paper with a few words written on it and said,
“Listen to me read this, and tell me if anything is wrong. For every mistake, I will reduce your pain by half.”
“I will do my best.”
The look in his eyes as he said that was almost desperate.
“Three years ago, you killed the chairman of the Gangso Province Police Agency. At the time, you did a clean job, killing only the chairman...”
“No. I also killed the chairman's seven-year-old grandson, who witnessed the whole thing.”
“...”
He searched for mistakes with all his heart.
The face of the deceitful physician watching this became increasingly thoughtful.
At this point, isn't he really enjoying the pain?
.
.
.
A moment later.
I headed for a mansion in Shandong.
Behind me, two members of the Silver Blade Corps were being led away by bodyguards.
“Who are you? This is where the evil commander is!”
The guards in front of the mansion blocked us.
“I know. Will you deliver this to the evil commander?”
What I handed them was the sacred letter given to me by the emperor.
It was a sacred letter that gave me the privilege of handling matters related to me first.
“What is this?”
They tilted their heads and snatched the scroll from my hands.
“Be careful! That was given to me by His Majesty the Emperor.”
“What?”
The white silk wrapping the scroll came loose, revealing the scroll inside.
I had wrapped it loosely on purpose.
They were startled by the red and gold splendor of the emperor's sacred letter and their hands trembled.
Even if it wasn't a sacred letter addressed to me, treating it with one hand as if it had just been taken from my hands was a crime of disrespect, and I would have been taken away without a word.
“Could you have told me that sooner?”
“I was about to, but you snatched it away.”
“....”
“If the evil lord finds out about this....”
“Ugh!”
“Please! Keep this a secret.”
“Give it to me...?”
“Please.”
“I didn't know what I was doing, and I don't enjoy seeing people suffer.”
I heard a sigh from behind me.
Huh? What does that mean?
Thanks to him, the guards dropped their high-handed attitude and treated me with caution.
Not only did I have the upper hand, but they also guessed that I was not an ordinary person because I was carrying the holy relic.
Soon, the guard who had gone inside came out and said politely,
“Please come in. But what about them?”
They asked, looking at the members of the assassination group I had brought with me, and I replied,
"Lock them up in prison. They are members of an assassination group based in Nanking. I just discovered that they were planning to assassinate the evil lord, so I brought them here.“
”Is that true?“
”Yes. That is why I want to see the evil lord."
They glared at the two assassins with fierce expressions.
They were as angry as they were respectful of the evil lord.
“Lock them up in prison immediately.”
“Yes!”
Then I was led inside.
This mansion was one of the many mansions belonging to the Shandong Yakuza, and it was where the Yakuza boss was currently staying.
It was not far from the main house of the Shandong Yakuza, located in Taishan.
As I waited in the reception room drinking tea, the Yakuza boss entered shortly after.
“It's been a long time.”
“Have you been well? I am Eun Seo-ho, the captain of the Eunhae Trading Company. I have come to see you.”
“I am well, thanks to you.”
This was the first time I had seen him since the incident involving the Changhae Trading Company and the Baekcheon Trading Company.
“So why are you giving this to me?”
He placed the sacred text I had given him on the table and asked.
“And I hear you brought those who tried to assassinate me.”
“Actually, that's not the sacred text I wanted to show you. It's this one.”
I handed him another sacred text.
Dao looked at it with a surprised expression.
That sacred object was a sacred object that would order an investigation into anything I wanted.
I took out the badge of the Inspector General from my pocket and showed it to him.
Aak Dae-in nodded his head.
“I knew you were no ordinary person when I first saw you. That's why I wanted to ask you to work under me, but it seems the Emperor has already chosen you.”
“You flatter me.”
I replied modestly.
“I would like to ask you to investigate an assassination group called the Silver Sword Society in Nanking.”
The commander in front of me was the commander of Nanking.
Of course, he had no authority over the judiciary, but he was more than capable of resolving this matter by pressuring the inspector general.
I cross-checked the information with the physician and the palace guard who had urged the assassination, and presented the documents to him.
“Looking at the murders they have committed so far, they are a threat to the empire. I believe they must not be overlooked.”
He read the documents I handed him, and his face gradually turned red.
He was indeed a man of evil.
The evil nobleman did not seem to care much about the fact that they had tried to kill him, but he was furious about the other murders.
“What! There are such children who would make heaven and earth tremble!”
“Investigate this and report directly to His Majesty the Emperor.”
“I understand. I will do so.”
“I have one more request.”
I explained to him the story of Gung-shin.
“I am asking for his pardon.”
“What a tragic story. Who could have avoided such a situation? He is also a victim. And since I am fine, I can easily overlook it.”
“Thank you very much.”
I clasped my hands in front of him and smiled to myself.
With that, I had passed the troublesome aftermath to the evil man.
Now I could take Gung-shin with me and go to the Eunhae Trading Company headquarters with peace of mind.
