Chapter 475: Exposed

“Look what you’ve turned into, Ki-Jun. A living corpse.” He said with a mirthless chuckle.

He bent over and lowered his head towards Ki-Jun. He listened for his breath, but there was nothing, even though he already knew he wasn’t breathing on his own.

“You’re even worse than a living corpse. You’re a just a corpse. An ordinary dead human, breathing with the help of a machine and know why that is?” He asked. He lowered his face one more time and brought his ears close to Ki-Jun’s mouth. “Hmm? Did you say something?” He mocked.

He chortled at the silence which he was reeling in. “I know you don’t know, so I’ll tell you. You’re breathing with the help of a machine because I put you there. I made you this corpse that you are, and the one you’re going to turn into when the plug is finally pulled. And not only will I do that, I’m going take everything you have just like I’ve always wanted to, and kill that little brat who is unfortunate to be your daughter.”

He resignedly sighed. “It is sad she’d never get to spend any time with you, but I can assure her death will be painless, or maybe more painful. Same as everyone else who’d dare stand in my way.”

“And maybe like yours too.” Someone suddenly said behind him and Yong-Gun swiveled around to replace Dan-Han standing at the door.

He scoffed when he realized it was no one else than Dan-Han. “It’d take more than a boy you size and wit to kill me.” Yong-Gun confidently told him.

.....

Dan-Han shrugged. “This life is full of surprises. You just have to wait till it’s your turn for it.” Dan-Han told him, but the man snorted.

“Sorry I interrupted your small confession, do you want to go with it? I can keep guard for you?” Dan-Han innocently suggested, but Yong-Gun knew he was only messing with him, and he’d be stupid to say anything in the presence of Dan-Han.

For all he knows he could have a recorder on him. He wasn’t that stupid.

“What confession are you talking about, young man?” He innocently asked, and anyone who had heard him would have been fooled.

Dan-Han lips meaningfully curved up as he silently stared at him, but his smile suddenly unsettled Yong-Gun who narrowed his brows at him.

Dan-Han hasn’t outsmarted him right? He mused.

He had instructed his boys to sneak in at the early hours of the morning, to do a clean sweep of the room for wired tapes and hidden cameras, and there had been none.

That was what had encouraged him to having the little chat he had been dying to have with his useless brother, but it was unfortunate he wasn’t conscious enough to hear him.

“You know I’m still beginning to wonder what it is with villains making a grand and stupid confession at the end of their show. It’s almost redundant, don’t you think?” Dan-Han cocked a brow at him, while Yong-Gun unblinkingly stared at him as he tried to understand what he was trying to say.

Dan-Han’s smile tipped wider when he saw the shift of confusion on Yong-Gun’s face.

He stepped into the room an walked over to the side of the bed which was opposite to where Yong-Gun stood.

He looked at Ki-Jun’s face before raising his head up to Yong-Gun who was regarding him with obvious intent.

Dan-Han sighed. “You know one thing I’ve learned from playing a game of cards, is letting your opponent believe they have the winning hand, and that you’re at their mercy. That is how you play to win. It’s all about psychology.Its all about what’s in here.” Dan-Han said, tapping a finger at his temple.

Yong-Gun’s brows furrowed deeper as he kept trying to ascertain what Dan-Han was hinting at, even though a part of him was already giving him a hit what he was all about, but he chose not to believe it.

“If you have something to say, say it little boy.” Yong-Gun said irritably.

“Why don’t I show you?” Dan-Han said and whipped out his phone. He opened his gallery and opened a video for him.

Yong-Gun stared at the phone as the video played. “I guess you know who that is?” Dan-Han asked, but Yong-Gun frowned.

“Why should I know?” He stoically asked, but Dan-Han could hear the anger trembling in his voice.

Dan-Han resignatedly sighed and put away his phone. “I thought you did. The young boy had been kidnapped since yesterday from his school. And I must say I was surprised to replace out it was doctor Tan’s son, same doctor who was supposed to carry out some surgery on your brother. The same brother wanted to kill.”

“Lee Dan-Han-” The man called, but Dan-Han cut him off.

“I’m sure you knew about the DNR, and that’s why you cornered the man, but that’s no problem, because I only want to inform you no one’s dying today, especially not your brother.” Dan-Han told him matter of factly, and Yong-Gun scowled.

“What do you mean?” He questioned. What did Dan-Han mean that no one was dying today? Ki-Jun was dying today, and that’s a fact.

Dan-Han let out a cryptic smile as he reached for something under Ki-Jun’s arm.

He chuckled when he saw the horrified look that covered Yong-Gun’s face.

“You don’t have to be so surprised. It’s just a pen recorder. I’m sure you know what it’s used for and what it means?” Dan-Han asked with a mocking smile. “Or maybe you want to know how this got here? I know about your little sweep this morning. Didn’t you wonder why this room has been left unguarded all day? If you didn’t, then my guess of you not being meticulous enough is real. You’re not as smart as you claim to be.” Dan-Han hissed at him.

Yong-Gun was certain his boys hadn’t made a mistake. He had personally sent Stephen, and he would never make such a mistake, except one of the doctors was working for him.

Why hadn’t he thought of that.

“Was it Tan?” Yong-Gun asked, even though he knew it might be subtly admitting to his crimes, but he wanted to know.

Dan-Han mirthlessly chuckled. “You amuse me, Mr Kim Yong-Gun. But if you must know, it isn’t doctor Tan.”

“Then if he wasn’t then who-” He paused when a certain face came to his mind. The young doctor who had come to give Ki-Jun some treatment.

His frown deepened at that realization. He had been suspicious about him, but he had dismissed his suspicion.

Dan-Han pressed the button on the voice recorder and everything Yong-Gun had said replayed to the man’s horror.

“That doesn’t prove anything.” He said.

“True,” Dan-Han nodded. “But let’s see what your brother has to say about that, shall we?” Dan-Han cocked a brow and smiled as he looked over at Ki-Jun whose brows was twitching along side his fluttering lashes.

Yong-Gun lost his balance and staggered back a few feet, when he saw his brother slowly regaining conscious.

Dan-Han glanced at him, and his lips curled up. He wasn’t one that enjoyed talking too much except when it came to Eun-sun, but he must say, taunting Yong-Gun this was satisfying.

His smile curved wider when Yong-Gun stared at Ki-Jun in horror. He chuckled amusedly.

“You don’t have to look so surprised.” He said attracting Yong-Gun’s attention right back to him.

“How...how is this-?”

“Possible?” Dan-Han completed his sentence for him. “I told you from the onset, I’m not someone you wanna play a game of cat and mouse with. I’m going to corner you and tear you apart limp by limp.” Dan-Han told him, and the man’s heart skidded as he glanced back at Ki-Jun whose eyes were now open and was staring at Dan-Han, before shifting his gaze to him.

His eyes widened with horror.

“You don’t have to look so horrified. If you’re curious about what had happened, then you should know that he was indeed in a coma, but not the one you thought you put him in, but the I sanctioned.”

Dan-Han had known Yong-Gun was going to make a play at Ki-Jun’s life, and he had suspected his best approach was going to be through the family doctor. He could easily use anyone else, but Dan-Han was confident he’d use doctor Tan.”

He had hired a couple of people to watch out for every member of his family, because he knew that was how the world they lived in worked. Threats and deaths were how they got things to work for them.

The instruction he had given was simple. To let whatever kidnap Ki-Jun would want to do to happen, hence how Ki-Jun had successfully kidnapped doctor’s Tan son.

After Ki-Jun’s meeting with the doctor, Dan-Han had assured him he’d get his son back if he simply did as he was told. The man had been scared, but he gave him his word to bring his son safe and unharmed, and that was Tae-Ho’s assignment for the day.

Dan-Han had instructed doctor Tan to do nothing, and asked him to recommend an anaesthesics who they could trust.

While the surgery was going on, Ki-Jun had been injected with another drug that amplified the effect of the other, those prolonging his

wake up time.

“And the doctor who had come in, had only given the drug to antagonize the effect of the one given him while in surgery. So he was never in a coma, if I’m allowed to say so. And the BIS thing was only to give you a reassurance that you had a perfect plan.” Dan-Han told him, and the man’s eyes widened even more in horror.

He couldn’t believe it.

He glanced at his brother who was blankly looking at him.

“Brother, I didn’t....none of this....”

“Yo..you can save it Yong-Gun. I heard the recording, and I know your voice.”

....
