When I Opened My Eyes, I Was in the Middle of the Battlefield

“I can’t tell. Mr. Lee, please understand.”

The hesitant Robert raised his voice.

He also wanted to share the inside story, but he couldn’t bear it.

Just as much of the State Department was classified, stories about traitors shouldn’t be leaked.

It wasn’t because I distrusted Kang Tae.

Robert knew best that he was not a man to sell information to.

Because I was stripped of it before the internal review.

However, since the Ministry of State and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are based on secrecy, it was not possible to disclose the related information.

In the first place, even within the foreign cooperation bureau, few people knew the circumstances related to the betrayal.

A trustworthy direct manager.

Employees below him knew that the recent task force (TF) audit was part of an irregular audit.

Of course, it was deliberately hidden.

This is because the more people know about it, the more likely it is that the story will leak out.

It wasn’t just about betrayal or corruption.

It included the possibility that the known facts could leak out through mistakes, threats, wiretapping, etc.

In other words, I had to reduce the number of people I knew.

That was the basis of the State Department.

There was also a reason why the most secrecy among the US administrative departments was there.

He saved his words, but Kang Tae’s mouth did not close.

“Come to think of it, I heard something like a person’s name… … .”

Then, slowly, his mouth opened, and Robert swallowed, waiting for the next words.

It was because of the subtle anticipation.

This wasn’t just because of the superhuman aspect Kangtae had shown in the field.

It was because of the current situation of foreign cooperation countries.

There is no approval, there is no support, let alone work cooperation, and there is a lack of hands because you have to manage your work only with your own abilities.

It was natural to hope that someone’s words would be a small hint or help.

However, since the main character is Kang Tae, I just have more expectations.

While looking intently at this, Kang-tae, who had been thinking about it for a moment, opened his mouth.

“… Do you know Grayson?”

In an instant, Robert’s eyes widened.

I didn’t want to vote even if I was called a traitor, but this time I had no choice but to react like an unconditional reflex.

A name flashed into Robert’s mind.

‘Walter Grayson?!’

It was a name on the first list of more than 100 people with the possibility of betrayal.

The only deputy minister among them.

To be precise, he was the one who was serving as the European Secretary-General under the Vice-Minister for Political Affairs.

Naturally, Robert was a difficult person to touch.

The rank is also the rank, but it was because the place he belonged to was also a department that was so powerful.

European Secretariat, not Asia, Africa or any other Secretariat.

In addition to interfering in all fields of foreign affairs and politics in Europe, it was a place where they touched military information, including NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), not political affairs, in terms of business cooperation.

It was clear that the lobbying costs alone would exceed the budget of the External Cooperation Agency.

Of course, internal departments couldn’t confirm it, but Robert guessed that there would be a huge difference in the budget allocated.

So, the Vice Minister of Military Taxes must have been surprised and frightened.

However, such a person came out of Kang Tae’s mouth.

Of course, he didn’t even mention his name, Walter, but it was clear that the letters Grayson meant the European Secretary.

That’s how things went back. The odds of it being a coincidence were very slim.

Robert’s shaky gaze stopped belatedly.

‘How could he… … .’

I hesitated, but I couldn’t bring it out of my mouth.

I was already excited, but the moment I said it out loud, it was no different from admitting it.

Instead, Robert, who had cleared his throat, asked in a different way.

“… Please tell me more.”

“Ah, that… Didn’t I pass out in Camarnia?”

“Yes, it was excessive bleeding.”

A blood vessel in his thigh burst and he was rushed to a blood transfusion in Camarnia, and fortunately he woke up quickly.

And after undergoing a proper thigh surgery in Germany, she is currently resting here.

Robert knew it well.

It was time to look at it with eyes that wanted to say why.

“My memory was hazy at the time… After resting and coming to my senses, I remembered hearing a glimpse of it.”

“… … ?”

While Robert’s eyes light up.

Kang Tae opened his mouth.

“… He muttered that it was Grayson. From the one who died last. And what did he say… Pichal? I said that, but I’m not sure if it’s a name or what.”

It’s a light comment that doesn’t sound like a big deal, but it was an important story that Kang-tae thought hard on his own.

Walter Grayson seems to be behind the current situation, and Pikal is the main culprit of the nuclear war.

Of course, it is possible to prepare more than this way and aim for the timing to speak, but time was tight for that.

No, since I don’t know exactly how it will go, I had to finish it as quickly as possible.

Walter and Pikal.

That’s why I had to tell them the names of the two quickly so that they wouldn’t make a fuss, so I had to help them stop it.

Of course, Pikal couldn’t help it right away by telling him, but Walter was different.

He was a high-ranking official in the State Department who committed betrayal all the time, only to be discovered and commit suicide after aiding terrorism in the US mainland.

In other words, it takes a long time to catch the tail.

Since the shootout on the road was highly likely to be orchestrated by Walter, Kang-tae had to do everything possible to catch it as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, it was obvious that I would be attacked by gangsters again after moving for only 30 minutes.

In particular, the United States is a ridiculously large land with a hundred units of km, so it was only natural that it would take a few hours or a day or two to move.

In other words, if you can’t drive even 30 minutes away, it means that your daily life is impossible.

It couldn’t be.

As an American citizen, I had to buy a new gun I wanted and get used to shooting it, and I had to buy a house that was easy to defend and a bulletproof car that I could use in case of emergency.

In order to do that, of course, I had to be able to move for more than 30 minutes.

One conclusion.

It was about getting rid of Walter as quickly as possible.

‘In a way, he’s a more f*cked-up guy than Sergei, he’s a f*cker… … .’

Of course, Sergei, like Pikal’s right-hand man, committed more serious things, such as terrorism and nuclear missile development in conflict areas, but Walter was committing worse things to individuals.

I don’t know if he’s really trying to kill me, or if he’s trying to kill me with blood.

It was around the time Kangtae thought so.

Robert, who had calmed down before he knew it, opened his mouth.

“… Any other words or other memories?”

“well. I passed out at that time, so my memory is a bit hazy.”

“All right. Grayson, I’ll take care of the matter with Pikal. You are not allowed to go anywhere.”

“Of course, even if you listen roughly, aren’t they related? He could be a traitor.”

“if… … .”

Robert opened his mouth and shook his head.

“no.”

“… … ?”

Kang-tae looked at him as if asking why, but no words came out after that.

Because it was so unrealistic.

just superpowers.

‘It doesn’t make sense… … .’

I wondered if Grayson’s name came from that.

It wasn’t the first time I thought of it.

I don’t know exactly what field it was, but whenever Robert looked at Kang-tae’s data, he had made countless hypotheses and thought about it.

Because I used to do miraculous things that people couldn’t do without difficulty.

In that respect, the word psychic was the easiest and simplest way to describe Kang-tae.

Perhaps, if he had been devout, he might have thought of him as a messenger of God.

This was the result of various video materials and records that Robert had checked so far.

That was the reason why he had to go to the hospital to check Kang-tae’s test results.

Of course, there was no material to suspect that he was a psychic.

I wondered if there was something wrong with the test results, but it wasn’t.

Blood and various components were very healthy adult males, and only the physical fitness level was marked as the top 0.01% level.

In addition, various internal screening tests conducted in the past were clean.

Phone, mail, internet usage history, etc.

These were things that couldn’t be said to be psychic.

However, there was no catch at all.

‘… Scott Evans.’

The first traitor Kang Tae discovered.

Originally a deputy team leader under Jake, and until last year, he was a mercenary who had no evidence of corruption or corruption in the screening results.

Kangtae had caught him.

I heard something, I forcibly opened the door and took out my laptop.

as if sure

However, during the interrogation, Scott objected very strongly.

And that’s only in things related to Kang Tae.

‘I never said anything like Coin to Lee.’

Of course, there was more profanity mixed in than that, but the important part was the part where he stated that he hadn’t drunk and hadn’t talked to Kangtae.

But I didn’t dig further.

Except for that one thing, everything fit together, and Kangtae was clean.

Even though he thought it was not in the end, Robert couldn’t help but look at Kang-tae as similar to a psychic.

It was like a kind of wind.

I really want Kangtae to be a super soldier or a hero.

Although reasons like world peace and American security come first, Robert knows how dangerous the battlefield can be.

I didn’t want any more death.

It was all the more so because he had dozens of subordinates who knew his face and name, who had died during the operation.

Kang-tae’s passionate reaction in a moment of danger was one of those feelings.

In particular, field agents of the Foreign Cooperation Bureau are a secret organization that cuts off all relations with the US government, so they will not receive any memorial or honor if they die.

At the end of that thought, Robert held out one more thing he had prepared.

“Check the list and tick off anything to add.”

“what… ah!”

“I brought all the existing equipment, and prepared the same guns and bullets as I used.”

It was a list of Kangtae’s equipment.

All the types of firearms used in Al Jamash, from those bought with expensive money, were also marked.

After checking, Kangtae raised his head.

“this… It’s perfect.”

“I’ll make sure to take it with you the moment you leave the hospital, but the laws vary from state to state, so you’ll have to check carefully and bring it with you. Even if you go beyond Washington DC, there is a possibility of conflict because the laws are very different.”

“Ah, I heard you. zone… From a deceased G&G employee.”

Kang-tae paused and continued, and Robert, who had instructed him to deal with the situation, calmly accepted his words.

“Okay, I’m sorry.”

“however… That person must have nothing to do with the Foreign Cooperation Bureau, so how can he not apply? Even to my family… … .”

“I will do it personally.”

“Thank you, please take care of it. Oh, and Grayson and Pikal please.”

At Kang-tae’s words, Robert smiled bitterly.

It was because it sounded like he was talking about knowing the inside story.

Of course, I didn’t know anything about Pikal among them, so I had to find it right away as soon as I returned.

I was going to search through all the printed documents and audio and video recordings with similar words, and I was going to find a connection to Grayson or Sergei from there.

Of course, since we don’t even know if Pikal is a person or an object, it will take quite a bit of time.

But it wouldn’t be normal.

Because Sergei said it at the moment of his death.

“… When the treatment is to some extent, we will proceed with Lee’s discharge.”

“ASAP… No, if you need me, just tell me. I think it would be more convenient to finish it with my own hands.”

At that, Robert smiled bitterly.

“… We were already considering an operation to deploy Lee.”
