Shincon's One Coin Clear

Chapter 124

Episode 124. Truth (4)

“Can you hear me?”

It was Korean with a thick Western accent.

“How are you?”

-what?

Taeyang opened his eyes wide and manipulated the broadcasting interface.

“What is this.”

I didn’t even operate it separately, but Taeyang’s broadcasting channel was turned off.

“Hyeon-hye?”

– Oh, I’m glad. Wired connections are alive.

The offline chat window connected to Hyun-hye seemed to be alive.

At the same time as confirming that the connection with the outside world had not been completely cut off, the voice of a stranger rang in Taeyang’s ears.

– I ask for your understanding. The channel was down for a while. Just your streaming. I got some cooperation from the company.

Curly pronunciation that appears when foreigners speak Korean.

The sun raised one eyebrow and asked.

“who are you?”

-This is Federal Bureau of Investigation Senior Investigator John Edgar Hope. Feel free to call me John.

what bullshit is this

-for a moment. I can’t believe that FBI in the sponsorship window... ... .

-yes. That’s me.

The sun opened its mouth involuntarily.

“The FBI? Then that sponsorship isn’t just a simple aggro... ... .”

-yes. we sent

Every story I hear these days has no sense of reality.

No FBI all of a sudden? why? What am I so important to?

‘No, it’s not important.’

The lives of 300 million people were put on hold, and some actually died.

Regardless of whether it’s the FBI, the CSI, or the Chinese public security, they’re probably running around to save those trapped in capsules.

In the meantime, Taeyang is a human who shows a bud enough to clear this game called Dantalian in his own way.

In other words, it could be a more important person than you thought.

Then the question soared.

‘Is this person really an FBI investigator?’

The credibility seemed pretty good.

If not the real FBI, how could this be done?

Even the headquarters of the streaming site platform that Taeyang uses is in the United States, so this kind of thing could not be done unless it was really the FBI.

However, Hyun-hye seemed to have a different idea.

-Taeyang, isn’t this a hack?

“Is that so?”

Come to think of it, that side is more convincing.

At first, it started with the gaze of a madman, but now Taeyang’s channel is the channel watched by the largest number of people in the world at the same time.

The fact that I haven’t been hacked in this long time is even more ridiculous.

At that time, an American who identified himself as John Edgar Hope retorted with his characteristic slurred pronunciation.

– It’s not hacking. As you may not know, your channel is getting a lot of hacking attempts. If it wasn’t for the firewall we built, we would have been able to play the game, but we wouldn’t have been able to broadcast.

The sun didn’t bother to answer.

If you think about it, this situation is no different from a man named Lee John hacking Taeyang’s broadcasting channel.

– Even at this moment, you have no idea how many offensives are coming and going.

“yes. Iknow, right. You are the first time this has happened since I started broadcasting.”

The sun’s expression was grim.

A war between the FBI and hackers set in cyberspace.

It’s grandiose, but it’s not something you can see with your own eyes, so there’s no way you can really feel it.

-... ... Would you believe me if I went to Mr. Yoon’s residence?

– Oh, that’s not good. I couldn’t put on makeup today.

Hyeon-hye, who had been staring at the monitor without washing her hair for several days, reflexively refused.

“Hey, when did you talk like you did?”

– Did you?

“Everyone knows you don’t wash when you have nothing to do with others, right?”

-Can we not arrest John for spreading false information?

Punctuation as usual.

However, Taeyang knew it, and Hyunhye also knew it.

-Shanghai. Rio de Janeiro Hawaii New York. This is where the particularly clear and convincing evidence came from.

“Shanghai. Is the FBI also active in China?”

– I do activities. informally. They are not cooperating with our investigation, but this data was sent by China. It’s an achievement from the World Summit.

“Then this is not entirely the work of the US FBI... ... .”

-That’s right. I’m here to help you as a member of the FBI, but this is a matter decided at the World Summit.

The sun frowned.

“Damn, I know you’re busy right now, but can I ask you one more question?”

-Let’s ask.

“Hasn’t the summit already happened? Why did you appear only now? If you’re going to help, show up sooner.”

-I was already helping.

At John’s words, Taeyang and Hyeonhye spit out questions in unison.

“Eh?”

-Eh?

– How many people do you think were close to those in power among the users trapped in Dantalian?

iced coffee.

The sun hit my forehead.

Dantalian’s popularity was equal to everyone regardless of class.

Of course, the Dantalian Incident left scars on them all equally.

The story of an NBA star being trapped in Dantalian and a child of a U.S. congressman being trapped in Dantalian and dying is also famous.

There was a time when the story that a Middle Eastern conglomerate was trapped in a game and offered billions of dollars if it was saved was controversial.

In the meantime, countless requests have been made to Taeyang to find his family friend and lover.

There were literally too many to count if you count the requests that came through broadcasting as well as through Hyeon-hye.

However, Taeyang rejected all requests.

And even after refusing so many people’s requests, Taeyang remained fine.

Taeyang as well as Hyeonhye in reality were fine.

The world seems to be equal, but in reality it is not.

There are more people with power who can send a human into hell with a single word than the average person imagines.

There may be people who have overwhelming power enough to sleep with one hand, such as the world’s leading basketball players and those who run the state affairs of the United States.

Wasn’t there a single person like that caught up in the Dantalian Incident?

Not like that.

Then why didn’t those in power ask the sun?

John was answering the question.

-They didn’t approach you. no i couldn’t access it.

“ah.”

– We blocked it. yes. It was hard work, but in the end we did it.

Through the translation, I could feel the exhaustion that John must have been through.

As mentioned earlier, in a capitalist society, money is often superior to the law, and those in power will do anything to get what they want.

Threats against family members or jobs were commonplace, and in severe cases, they would have done things they saw in movies or news.

– The reason we didn’t approach you is simple. We’ve come to the conclusion that you may be our only hope, but there’s nothing we can do to help you.

“ah.”

It was worth it.

Whether it’s the FBI, the CSI, or the special forces with the world’s best talent, it’s worse than wisdom when it comes to games.

The only thing they could do was gather Dantalian rankers from all over the world and gather information, but since they were already gathered in the sun’s broadcast, this was also meaningless.

-You were doing well enough and our approach would only hinder you.

“That is true. Knowing that doesn’t mean my game skills will increase. If the burden increased, it would increase.”

To sum up John’s words, it was simple.

In the meantime, I didn’t have a chance to help, but at this stage, I thought it would be helpful, so I approached it.

-Imagine what you’re doing.

Imagination.

Taeyang intuitively noticed what John was talking about.

‘Azure Murph’s Post.’

Eden is Paimon’s Gate.

The blue sky is Amon’s mouth.

and Dantalian of Earth.

In fact, wouldn’t the demon king Dantalian really come to Earth?

Could it be that he opened the gate to the dimensional labyrinth through the medium of the capsule?

I didn’t say it out of my mouth, but such a hypothesis.

Imagine that.

– We are also giving weight to that hypothesis.
