33. Wanted

At the time Lee Soo-ho’s press conference was continuing, the Peace Party floor leader’s office.

This was the office space of Na Hye-ri, who rose to the throne as the floor leader and emergency committee chairperson.

She could have used the party representative’s office instead of the floor representative’s office, but it was me, Hyeri, who intentionally skipped it. It was because she was about to seize and search the party representative’s office to kill her former representative, Park Ha-sun. She couldn’t be humiliated by her ugly predecessor.

Of course, the floor representative’s office was not pleasant.

“I am in the hospital. Isn’t this a bit much?”

A question posed by a woman in her 30s who suddenly came upon me.

“Isn’t it?”

When Na Hye-ri made a sullen expression, the other person hesitated and said, “I’m sorry. But isn’t this a bit off?” She corrected her tone on the spot.

I, Hyeri, deliberately took a break and let out a sigh.

She said “I think it was a mistake and she will move on for once. Representative Park Soo-ah.”

“Thank you.”

Looking at her timid response, she might seem a bit shabby, but she was the Liberal Party’s senior deputy floor leader.

Although the player is lower than Na Hye-ri, she is directly subordinated to her by 2 years from high school to university. It was a relationship that could not be ignored in an academic society like Korea.

She used to be friendly with her, but things were different now.

It was because Na Hye-ri is now the head of the Peace Party, not Han-ryang. It means that she is not in a private position, and she is not in a position to listen to the head of the opposition party at the headquarters of the National Assembly.

In addition, the business itself that her opponent took issue with was very annoying.

“Anyway, floor leader Na Hye-ri. You were watching the press conference for Suho Lee, right? … No, at what time of the day is an incumbent member of the National Assembly raising a private phenomenon? She even said something she didn’t want to hear, and she’s heard that she’s sued over twenty people.”

“I know it’s not just something I hate to hear, it’s cyber defamation. Even she claimed to have abused her authority and spread false information…. Is there any problem?”

“Hi, you know. As a member of the National Assembly, it is normal for her to be criticized. Who doesn’t know how to sue? It’s just a normal thing to go through while doing politics and put up with it. If Chosun does politics like this, he writes.”

“Because it’s not the party’s business to intervene.”

“You take care of the staff you brought… No, anyway, that’s how it is. So what are you going to do with the private bounty? If Interpol issued a red notice, that’s it. Why is Suho Lee causing controversy by rushing alone?”

“If I had expressed my greed by saying that I should have that 30 billion won, I would have taken action, but that is not the case…. And.”

“And what?

“If you order Rep. Lee Soo-ho to withdraw the bounty right now, it will look like you are protecting Kwon Ye-sol. If you do such a thing in this situation, all you can say is to disband the Peace Party, but does the Liberal Party really want that?”

I, Hyeri, tilted her head as she said this.

Only then did the floor leader of the Liberal Party cough and avert his gaze.

“Of course not, but the amount is too much… An incumbent member of the National Assembly has been criticized for being a country that plays bounty. If the national prestige collapses like this, can a single first-timer take responsibility?”

“The national prestige has already collapsed. The ruling party became like this because of one coin.”

Na Hye-ri’s self-deprecating remarks made her opponent lose her words.

In the end, “That… Anyway, I hope Suho Lee will restrain himself. It was the Liberal Party’s floor leader who turned his back after leaving the words, “I’m telling you in advance before the party issues a statement.”

Na Hye-ri let out a laugh.

‘What is self-control? If that’s the case, I didn’t even allow it as punishment in the first place.’

It wasn’t that I, Hye-ri, didn’t touch Lee Su-ho because I was worried about her public image.

She was originally a child she cared for, but now she has a reason to protect her somehow.

And apart from her personal feelings, Suho Lee’s actions were helping the Peace Party to some extent.

In fact, even at this moment, the huge disaster left by Park Ha-sun was being excavated one after another.

Among the candidates running for the previous general election, more than 20 people received money envelopes. And the number of people who received donations for splitting through civic groups was similar.

Half of them were now holding seats as members of the National Assembly.

There was also an unexpected problem.

‘Even people who thought they were free from this problem were involved.’

There were quite a few incumbent members of the National Assembly who received political donations from Park Ha-sun or Park Ha-sun’s aides through legal channels. No matter how smart a politician is, he doesn’t sensitively check the source of the 1 to 2 million won donation.

They were not punished. You should just return it and post an apology.

However, it was true that the body was stained with filth. After all, the money they received came from Park Ha-sun’s pocket.

At this point, the total amount of money that Park Ha-sun sprayed on the party is estimated to be around 1.5 To 2 billion won.

It’s a lot of money, but it’s a modest amount for polluting the entire ruling party.

In the end, it meant that everyone received the money without any boundaries because it was a’not burdensome level’ handed over by the party representative. I didn’t even know that the party representative was involved with the coin player.

‘If Park Ha-seon ate and searched for food alone, it would have been noisy for a few weeks and then settled down.’

Thanks to Lee Soo-ho’s attention during this devastating period, the party’s burden was reduced.

After all, it was because Lee Soo-ho also belonged to the Peace Party.

It’s true that the Pyeonghwa Party’s faults don’t go away just because Lee Su-ho goes on a rampage, but it looks like it’s clearing up. He had no reason to interfere.

‘Even though I don’t have the strength to help.’

I, Hyeri, watched Suho’s press conference video, and she immediately turned her head away. It’s a pity for her, but she had work piled up on her too.

Leading a tainted party was much more difficult than I thought.

The bounty I put on Ye-Sol Kwon is up to 10 billion won.

It was agreed that Kwon Ye-sol’s whereabouts would be reported, and if the information led to Kwon Ye-sol’s arrest, money equivalent to 10 billion won in Korean currency would be paid to the person concerned.

In addition, even in the case of reporting simple whereabouts rather than exact residence, it was decided to pay a differential reward if the information contributed to the arrest.

The total amount allocated for the bounty was 20 billion.

It was a condition that it was not given in won, but in a coin linked one to one with the dollar.

However, it was not just given randomly.

“This is just a report on whereabouts. Kwon Ye-sol must not be physically harmed. In that case, the bounty cannot be paid.”

Of course, it was not a condition that I put forward because I was worried about Kwon Ye-sol’s safety. She just made arrangements because she didn’t want any Asians to be harmed by being mistaken for that woman.

Even in countries where bounty hunters are active, the reality is that there are many people who get involved in civil lawsuits after having accidents in order to eat money worth about 5,000 or 10,000 dollars.

Not to mention, with a bounty of up to 10 billion won, it wouldn’t be strange if all the prominent Northeast Asian tourists looked like Kwon Ye-solo.

‘If a mean person gets beaten up, I’m the only one who suffers.’

If possible, it was right for me to personally secure Kwon Ye-sol’s recruits and hand them over to the local police. If the situation permits, she creates a situation where she doesn’t have to turn it over to the police.

The response was different, perhaps because the amount was the amount.

“10 Billion… ?”

Some of the reporters in front of me also seemed to agree. Right now, I want to go to places like Southeast Asia, the Middle East, or Eastern Europe as a correspondent.

10 Billion was a reasonable amount.

The bounty for the leader of a Pakistani terrorist organization that frequently causes bombings is 5 million dollars, and the Boko Haram leader who kidnaps and forcibly marries thousands of male students and frequently massacres civilians is 6 million dollars. More than that

And the subject of the bounty was me, a member of the Korean National Assembly.

It was natural for a normal human being to think, “Is it okay like this?” It wouldn’t be strange even if he was stuffed as a demagogue who was mad at the foreign press.

But I also had something to say.

“Special situations require special solutions.”

“Dozens of active members of the National Assembly are under investigation. Of course, not all of them will lose their seats, but it is undeniable that normal legislative activities have become impossible. Even if it is called the worst National Assembly of all time, there is nothing to say.”

“This happened because of Park Ha-sun’s omnidirectional spraying, but it was Kwon Ye-sol who provided the root cause. Until Kwon Ye-sol is caught, the political world in Korea cannot be normalized. It is not simply a matter of catching a cheater.”

At first, it started as an attempt to escape from her mother’s troubles, but now it has turned into a mission to deal with a first-of-its-kind political scandal.

To be honest, I didn’t work with a solemn sense of duty even now. It just happened that I was dragging the world’s aggro all by myself.

However, I couldn’t deny that the fate of the Peace Party and the success or failure of my political life depended on catching Ye-Sol Kwon.

When I tried to figure out how things got to this point, it was pointless. It would be best to achieve your goal quickly.

“Thank you. We will deliver results as soon as possible.”

This is the end of the press conference.

Originally, there were many contents prepared separately. Excluding the 20 billion won allocated for bounty use, the use of the rest of the funds, the method of cooperation with the judicial authorities, etc.

But reporters don’t ask, so can you answer? I decided to announce it later through a different route.

The window for receiving private information had already been prepared.

However, it would be difficult to catch Ye-Sol Kwon with just one press conference.

I was the one who prepared the follow-up to increase the level of pressure to the limit. Kwon Ye-sol suffers from a sense of crisis and makes his mistake to reveal his presence.

‘It’s only right to push through.’

On my way out of the Assembly Hall, which was the location of the press conference, I ran into a re-elected member of the National Assembly (received) with a gloomy expression, but I did not have time to comfort him, so I just ignored him.

The next destination was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
