As they reached the top of the stairs, as the man opened a heavy metal door, and his jacket moved, Gyun caught a glimpse of a hilt from a knife, it sported a wooden handle, and Gyun guessed that it was a sashimi knife.
Gyun walked through the door, inside was a well-furnished lobby, where a trio of larger-built men wearing the same black jackets and white dress shirts, sat on a pair of couches watching a TV. A fourth stood in the corner of the room, sipping what looked like coffee in a mug, he turned his head looking Gyun up and down,
"Yo, who the fuck is this?"
The man who led Gyun up the stairs ran his hand through his hair "He's a client who's looking for a larger loan, big money"
The man looked from Gyun to the man, "How much?"
"80,000,000 won"
"Whew! Big Money Eh?!" the man laughed looking at Gyun
Gyun simply nodded, pulling his mask up,
The man frowned, before turning back to the other thug who'd been at the desk downstairs, "Well the boss is inside, I'm sure he'll be happy to hear that we have a client who is willing to take out such a large loan."
"Here go on in, he's inside" They gestured to a door that looked like it was furnished with expensive wood, Gyun followed the man who knocked on the door twice, a voice came from within, the voice was high and nasally.
"Come in"
The door creaked open, as a thin-looking man sat behind an expensive-looking desk made of a light brown wood that seemed exotic, the man's face had deep sunken eyes and thinning black hair with gray streaks through his hair. Gyun looked into his eyes, as he approached the desk,
The thin man looked at him with confusion, Gyun's eyes lit up with a fiery intensity, pulling his phone out of his pocket and looking at the image on his phone that 'they' had sent him, looking from the image to the man.
The thin man's eyes noticed the latex gloves on Gyun's hands, his eyes narrowed as he turned to the suited man behind Gyun, "Hey who the fuck is this joker"
Gyun pulled down his mask as he put his phone back into his pocket, zipping the pocket closed, "Ryeo Dae-Hyeon?"
The thin man's eyes widened, "What?.... How the fuck do you know my na-"
Exploding forward, Gyun grabbed the man's hair who tried to grab Gyun's hand but overpowered him and smashed his face into the desk, hearing a crunch as he did Gyun smashed him back into the desk this time the man went limp as his hands fell limp from Gyun's wrist sliding behind the desk leaving a bloody mess on his ornate desk.
Getting grabbed from behind and lifted by the suited man, Gyun let go as he trusted his elbows into the man's abdomen, who called out for help desperately as Gyun slid his hand into the man's suit jacket, before slamming Gyun into the ground in a suplex.
Grunting as the air was knocked out of him Gyun rolled with the motion stabbing the man's side and kicked his legs back at the most opportune moment as he broke the man's grip, rolling backwards and into a low stance.
The door burst open as the group of men from the lobby burst in, the first one through the door sized up the situation,
"Hey Soryung what the fuck is going on?! Where's the boss?!"
*Cough* the man who'd suplexed Gyun fell to his knees as he grasped his side, he spat out blood as he rolled over in pain he gasped for breath desperately feeling inside his jacket for the knife he'd kept, however, he found nothing his eyes widened as he drew his last breath and spoke.
"Wha-... *cough *cough.... the fuck?" his eyes glazed over
Gyun twirled the knife once before, exploding forward throwing the knife forward with all of his strength,
The knife lodged in the center of one of the thug's chests as the man fell with a horrifying but short-lived scream, which seemed to spur the other gangsters into action
"Fuck!"
"Kill th-Urgh!"
Leaping forward with a flying knee, Gyun felt the man's jaw pop and move as the knee connected, he grabbed the man's knife from the inside of his jacket before he landed, and grasping the handle he spun the knife around switching grips. Slashing the nearest thug's throat, before ducking under a wild slash and countering with dozens of stabs into the last remaining thug's torso before he had the opportunity to pull out his own knife.
The man's torso exploded with spurting blood through the dozens of cuts as he keeled over unable to speak, as the first stab had targeted his trachea leaving him unable to scream, Gyun turned back to the man with the broken jaw who was squirming on the ground, groaning and crying, as he cradled his jaw which now hung at an awkward angle.
Squatting down, Gyun looked him in the eyes, placing the tip of the knife on the man's throat, who froze and looked at Gyun's face and made a desperate and loud crying sound.
Hurriedly stabbing into the man's neck, "Shhhhhhh! We don't want to wake up the whole street" pulled his mask back up with his other hand, as he held the knife into the man's neck as the thug desperately kicked around weakly grasping at the knife in a vain effort to pull it out. He gasped as he squirmed before he eventually stopped moving and soon after stopped breathing.
Being careful to avoid stepping into the pools of blood, Gyun approached the desk, hopping up on the desk, Ryeo sat unconscious behind his desk
"Hmmm"
Grabbing one of Ryeo's hands with his gloved hands, he brought it up to the desk and laid it on the desk, he took a deep breath before stabbing into it violently plunging the knife to the hilt into the wood.
Ryeo screamed as he bolted awake standing up and grabbing the knife, he locked eyes with Gyun just before Gyun punched him in the face knocking him out
Gyun sighed as he jumped down and cut the jacket sleeves of one of the dead thugs, tying it around Ryeo's mouth and gagging his mouth, before moving the knife slightly causing Ryeo to once again bolt awake, as he jumped back onto the desk.
'MMMMMM! MRGHMMMM!" he screamed through the gag
"Do you know why you're here?" Gyun calmly spoke through Ryeo's muted screams
Ryeo tried to reach for the knife's handle with his other hand but Gyun slapped his weak attempts to grab the handle. And tears streamed down Ryeo's face from his sunken eyes.
"You may not remember but around 5 years ago you hit a car in a drunk driving accident, and killed one victim"
Ryeo desperately shook his head, "MMM! MMMRH!"
"Good...At least you remember, do you remember getting off with no charges too"
"HMMM?"
Gyun's voice hardened, there was a hint of insanity in his voice, Ryeo stared at Gyun's face, which was hidden behind a mask, and a low-pulled hood, but he could see the eyes that showed a burning hatred.
"I'm going to take off your gag, and you're going to tell me everything about that night, and if you try to scream I'll kill you here and now, and you'll be another corpse on the way to the morgue with the rest of your friends over there"
Ryeo gave a short nod "MHM"
Gyun leaned forward, untying the gag and leaning back to sit on the desk
Ryeo took a few shallow breaths, "I only know a few things ok"
Gyun leaned forward face to face with Ryeo, "So? Let's hear it"
Ryeo glanced over to a cabinet in the corner of his office, "I can't tell you, if I do I'm as good as dead, their power reaches this entire country, they'll kill me, and no one will even know I'm gone"
Tapping the knife hilt, Gyun leaned back as he squatted on Ryeo's desk, as Ryeo knelt on the floor his hand stuck to the table, Gyun's voice held a heavy threat of violence, "Mr.Ryeo I'd be much more worried about me, then them, after all, I'm right here and right now."
Ryeo glanced once again at the cabinet, "fuck" he took a deep breath,
"So? Mr.Ryeo which is it going to be?"
"You motherfucker, you have no idea who you're fucking with, you're fucking dead regardless of what I say,"
"Mr.Ryeo if every time someone said that it was true I wouldn't be here now would I?"
"Your fucking insane!" Ryeo pressed something under his desk
Gyun's eyes lit up, as he grabbed Ryeo by his collar "What the fuck was that?!"
Ryeo smiled as he laughed, "Hahaha! Your dead now you motherfucker! That just alerted every Yangcheon gang member on the block! Hahaha"
No longer smiling Gyun ripped the knife out of Ryeo's hand and table
"Aaaaaaaahh!!"
Gyun stabbed the knife into Ryeo's chest, specifically into his lungs, pulling out the knife Gyun stuck it into the table
Letting Ryeo go, as he collapsed Gyun walked over to the cabinet searching through the cabinet skimming papers in the folders, he noticed they were all loan contracts.
"Mr.Ryeo you're very sneaky, but I hope you enjoy the 5-minute death you're going to be faced with, you won't be able to talk in the next few seconds since I punctured your left lung. So if you want to say any last words before your lungs fill with your own blood and collapse, say them now"
Gasping as he lay in a pool of his own blood Ryeo rolled over onto his back, "You son of a bitch, you really killed me, if that's how it is then I guess I've got nothing to fear. For... *gasp *gasp, your informa-... I *gasp, have a drive of... all the informati- *gasp, tion I know and, *gasp, bad thin..gs I've done in the 3rd folder on the second cabinet, don't let them hurt my wife and son"
Gyun smiled underneath the mask, as he hurriedly found the USB drive, and pocketed it, before approaching the office window, opening it he grabbed the bleach containers from the fire escape, and the knife out of the desk. "Mr.Ryeo don't misunderstand that the only mercy you'll receive from me is a faster death"
Ryeo could no longer even speak as he looked at Gyun who kneeled down, Gyun sighed before he stabbed through his temple instantly killing Ryeo.
Standing up straight, Gyun loosened the cap of the bleach containers before dumping them on all of the bodies, in the room he heard shouts in the street, and he heard the building's front door burst open downstairs, pouring the last bit of bleach on his gloved hands, he locked the office door, tossing the empty bleach containers on the ground.
Grabbing the small container of lighter fluid from the fire escape outside the window and poured the entire contents onto the cabinet containing the loan contracts and the debtors' names, pulling out a small lighter from his pocket.
He heard various shouts outside,
"He's inside!"
Someone tried to open the door, as the door handle was jiggled, as Gyun dropped the lighter on the soaked cabinet
"It's locked!"
"Break it open!"
Moving to the window he stepped onto the fire escape just as the door was broken open,
"There he is!"
"He killed Ryeo sunbae!"
"Grab him!"
Pulling his hood even lower, he jumped off the fire escape and grabbed onto the other buildings wall, grabbing hold of the ledge he scrambled up the side of the adjacent building
He made his escape as the shouts of the men persisted he ran, bathed in the neon lights from the signboards, along the roofs, and the light rain pouring down on the buildings.
But one voice pierced through the rain and shouted, a thick voice that screamed out in pure rag, "You're fucking dead you bastard!"
Gyun continued as he jumped to the next building glancing back and seeing a young man with deep sunken eyes looking at him through the window of Ryeo's office
"ha like father like son"
