Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter

Episode 80: The value of information (2)

As expected, the ominous prediction was not wrong.

The group was traveling somewhere again on a ferry.

Even Yu Jin-san, who is very patient, was slowly reaching the limit of his patience.

‘I guess we can meet this time.’

There was no way I could take my anger out on the unfortunate boatman.

In frustration, I traveled for half a day again.

At a time when the river was winding around and it was difficult to tell where we were.

A ferry boat was approaching from the opposite direction.

Above him, a man wearing a black suit with a crescent moon on it and a mask was holding his back.

A ferry boat is approaching on its own without a boatman. He must be an expert who can move a ship using energy.

Is this an intention to increase negotiation power by showing a high degree of inaction?

No matter what the other person’s intentions were, there was no reason for Yu Jin-san to flinch. Because I could easily do this if I wanted to.

“Now go across. “I will wait from afar until the conversation is over.”

The boatman moved the three people and spread the distance between them.

“Do you want to make a deal with Heukyabang?”

First, it was necessary to check their intelligence to some extent.

Yu Jin-san sent a message to the hesitant Dong-gu and continued the conversation.

“Do you know who we are?”

“Isn’t he the third son of the Dong family head? And the two children are your children.”

“How much do you know?”

“Even the fact that your son devastated the Xiahu family.”

Jinsan Yu was quite surprised.

I can’t believe I know exactly what happened not long ago. Although he seemed unable to figure out his true identity, his intelligence exceeded expectations.

First, we had to talk more through Dong-gu.

“You belong to the Black Night Room, right?”

“no. Let me just say that I am a partner. “If you tell me your request, a price will be set for the information and it will be delivered.”

Even though you came all the way here despite the trouble, the person from the dark room didn’t appear? Yu Jin-san’s face was filled with bewilderment.

“Please let me make direct contact with the Black Night. “It’s very sensitive information to tell anyone.”

The man in black shook his head horizontally without hesitation.

“You are the lowest customer level, so it is not possible according to the regulations. If you reach the highest level, you will be able to meet in person at any time.”

Jinsan Yu clenched his fists, but then soon released them again.

It was clear that attacking the person in front of me would be of no use. He also probably only knows tangential measures at most.

But I had to meet Heukyabang in person. Because there was a reason why it had to be that way.

Dong-gu, who received a message from Mt. Yujin, spoke with a nervous face.

“I don’t know how much information costs, but the truth is, I don’t have any money right now. So we have to meet them in person and negotiate.”

There was something vaguely lifeless about the eyes of the man in black.

Without even thinking, he blew his whistle and summoned a ferry boat that was far away. It will be the mind and body that will be sent back.

“Under the regulations, we cannot refund meeting costs, so please understand.”

It was Yu Jin-san who stole five silver coins.

I couldn’t back down like this.

Finally, Yu Jin-san gave up on sending a message to Dong-gu and opened his mouth directly.

“But Nobu can’t back down like this, so what should I do?”

For an instant, the man in black’s eyes wavered.

I knew that the child in front of me was not normal, but I felt a different momentum than before.

Moreover, you call yourself Nobu. That one word contained a lot of meaning.

“…?”

Yu Jin-san took out a rough jade tablet from his pocket and held it out to him.

“Could it be possible that we came here bare-handed without any thought? “I plan to entrust you with this as compensation for my trauma.”

Suddenly, the pupil of the man in black shook violently.

He recognized the Four Kings’ plaque that had been given to him by Sadoryunju, the supreme figure of the Four Sects.

He prostrated himself in front of Mt. Yujin without even thinking about accepting the jade tablet.

“Cheon Gwang-il of the Sun and Moon Gate. “I meet the Death King.”

Dong-gu and Yu-seol tilted their heads at the unexpected reaction.

Only Eugene San had a grave expression, as if he had already guessed it.

“I have no intention of using the Four Kings’ Pack, so don’t worry about it. I’m not even a member of the Apostolic Alliance. “Anyway, I’m thinking of putting this up as collateral. What do you think?”

“….”

Cheon Gwang-il was confused.

What is the Four Kings’ Pack? It was a sacred item given only to key executives of the Apostolic Alliance.

The samurai of the Four Sects belonging to the Apostolic Alliance must cooperate in any way with the person who possesses this.

The value of the collateral was not the issue; it was an item that could not be purchased even for a thousand dollars.

“You may be surprised to hear that I am not a member of the Apostolic Association. Just take it.”

Cheon Gwang-il took the Four Kings’ tablet and carefully turned it over.

This was to check the owner’s name engraved on the back.

Immediately, his eyes opened wide as if they were torn apart.

“Yin-yang twin monster…?”

“I tried to hide my identity until I met Heukyabang, but in this situation, I guess I can’t help it. I don’t know about the Hafusega guys, but they are different because they handle information. “

Who did he show off in front of now?

Cheon Gwang-il, whose shoulders were more slumped than before, glanced at Yu Jin-san’s side.

There was Yooseol holding his hand and eyes wide open.

“….”

“okay. This is the evil spirit that terrified Shaanxi. You know it well. The fact is that when the evil mass explodes, it is not a problem to disintegrate the Black Yabang in the air. Of course, I’m not saying we will do that.”

The absolute master who defeated Mo Yong-seong was in front of him.

Cheon Gwang-il had to choose whether to break the established rules.

And his worries did not last long.

He lowered his eyes, avoiding Yu Seol’s gaze, and returned the jade tablet.

“I will try to arrange a direct meeting with Heukyabang. As soon as possible….”

“Thank you. “I’m going to find the best place to stay around here.”

There was no need to set a specific meeting place. If it’s a dark night room, it won’t be difficult to find it.

* * *

As a rough estimate, I expected the next meeting to take more than five days.

However, Heukyabang defied expectations and approached in less than two days.

Dong-gu opened the door after hearing a sign of popularity in front of the room door.

Suddenly-!

A woman with an old-fashioned look was standing in front of the door.

Silk clothes embroidered with lotus patterns and an appearance full of elegance.

Although he didn’t seem to have learned martial arts, there seemed to be something unusual about him.

“nice to see you. “This is branch leader Eun Hwa-rin.”

If you are a branch manager, you will be in charge of this area. An executive-level person came to visit.

Her guard waiting outside the door also seemed unusual.

“The elder will be talking directly, so please sit this way.”

Yu Seol was lying on his side on the wooden bed, his sleepy eyes slightly open, and Yu Jin San was sitting at the table.

The person who introduced himself as Eunhwarin sat across from Yujinsan.

“It is an honor to meet you like this.”

“Rather, Nobu is more honored. “The big man of the dark night, who is so difficult to meet, has come to visit us in person.”

“Please understand that the procedure was complicated. “We have no choice but to survive.”

“This is an organization that operates not by force, but by information and financial power, so it has to be that way. “I understand.”

A faint smile appeared on Eunhwarin’s face.

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“But what is the reason you came in person? “I think there must be a purpose behind the branch manager’s move.”

After catching her breath for a moment, she spoke with a serious expression.

“you’re right. Let me get straight to the point. From now on, our Heukyabang policy is to provide all information to seniors free of charge without any compensation.”

Eugene San’s reaction was rather embarrassed rather than happy.

If Black Yabang’s cooperation was due to the Four Kings’ Troupe, then that was not the direction he wanted.

This is because the moment you use the power of the Four Kings’ Pack, it is no different from admitting that the Yin-Yang Twin Monster is an apostle.

“I said that the Four Kings’ Pavilion was simply an offer of collateral and that I had no intention of using it. “You must have also revealed that you are not a member of the Apostolic Alliance?”

“It has nothing to do with that.”

“Then is it because we are afraid? “The location hasn’t been exposed, so that’s probably not true.”

“I don’t know the reason because it is a policy handed down from the General Assembly. And the Ark wants to meet you in person.”

I couldn’t help but wonder.

Why would the Ark of the Dark Night, hidden in the shadows, want to meet directly? Could it be that a trap was dug?

Even when I thought about it that way, something didn’t seem right. Because there was absolutely no reason for Heukyabang to be like that.

Yu Jin-san thought for a moment and suddenly a connection occurred to him.

‘Heukyabang…. Heuksan tea…. No way?’

Although the possibility was extremely small, he thought that the Ark of the Dark Night might be someone he knew.

If things were to go as expected, the current situation was correct.

First I had to meet him.

“Where?”

Eunhwarin whispered in a very low voice so that only he could hear.

“Visit Gaebongseong’s Seolsanpyoguk.”

“It’s a pyoguk…”

Obtaining a permit is not an easy task because the number of pyoguks that can operate within the province is limited. This is because the selection criteria are very strict as it is an organization that can legally possess weapons within the province.

Normally, this would not have been possible without connections to the coffin.

I can’t believe it’s growing so much influence in the dark. The more I learned, the more I couldn’t help but be surprised.

Soon after she had finished all her errands, she stood up and handed him a gun.

“Thank you for your time.”

“On the contrary, I am grateful. Then take a look.”

* * *

“I’m glad things worked out well.”

“If it weren’t for you, Dong-gu, how could it have gone so smoothly? “It was a lot of hardship in many ways.”

From now on, it was time to go our separate ways.

Dong-gu, who was carrying the luggage, looked at Yoo Seol with a grin.

“Our Seol needs to stay healthy and healthy in the meantime.”

Yu Seol had tears in her eyes as if she was sad about breaking up.

“You can’t see him anymore?”

“Is that possible? “Whenever you get the chance, come visit Donggajang with Grandpa.”

“…yes. “I will definitely go and have fun.”

Dong-gu patted Yoo Seol’s head and then bowed his head towards Yu Jin-san.

“Thank you for this, Mr.”

“Yes, we will meet again someday. “Don’t neglect your training.”

“yes. And this…”

Dong-gu took something out of his pocket.

It was three colorful bracelets made by connecting jade beads.

“What’s this?”

“I bought it from a street vendor yesterday. “I want to leave at least some memories.”

“A grown man can do something like this…”

Contrary to what he said, Jinsan Yu received the bracelet and put it on right away.

Although I wasn’t old enough to have a hobby for jewelry, I couldn’t refuse the gift.

‘I’m wearing a seashell necklace, so how can this be…’

Unlike herself, my granddaughter was jumping around to see if she liked the bracelet.

“So pretty. Thank you, Uncle Dong-gu!”

“Okay, if we meet again later, we’ll get to know each other through this.”

“Hehehe. all right.”

Now it was really a farewell.

Dong-gu bowed his head towards Yujin-san once again.

“Then I’ll see you again with a different appearance.”

“Yeah, I look forward to it. “I’ve had a lot of fun thanks to you.”

After parting ways with Dong-gu, Jin-san Yu and her granddaughter took their first steps towards their destination.

From now on, there was no reason to move leisurely.

“Let’s leave too.”

“huh!”

The two walked forward with their shoulders side by side.

The destination is Gaebongseong.

Did you say that it is dark under the lamp? Even though the Chongta of openness was located near the outside of the castle, the reason why Heukyabang prepared the Chongta inside the castle was probably to hide in the shadow of the government army.

To pass through the city gate, you need a pass called “Senior”, but it is not easy for beggars who cannot prove their identity to get one.

Above all, after Gaebongseong became an economic and cultural center, the entry of beggars and dogs into the fortress was restricted due to security issues.

Even if the location was exposed, how could Gyeongjae ignore the defenders and enter the castle and attack Heukyabang? It could be said that they had prepared a gun battle in the safest location.

‘Maybe I can see the faces I miss.’
