Chapter 483: Juyoung Hong (10)

The iron gate was obviously very thick. But it was torn apart by someone’s bare hands.

The chairman could not help but ask when he saw the third broken iron gate.

“Is he a wizard? How come he could put all the diamonds into his little pockets?”

He could confirm that the intruder put the lumps of rough diamonds into the pocket of his shirt.

And the surprising thing was that he put them into that little pocket endlessly.

After he stole all the diamonds in Safe 1, Safe 2, and Safe 3, he disappeared casually as if nothing happened.

“It took him exactly three minutes to steal them all.”

“Oh my God…”

Chairman Connenty cleared his throat at his deputy’s explanation.

Only then did he realize that he had made a big, big misjudgement.

Anyway, Chairman Connenty stood still in front of the iron gate torn like a piece of paper for a long time, and so did the other top executives.

***

I expected I would find a huge amount of diamonds. Even Eileo, who I held as a captive after all the mercenaries who came with him ran away, said the same thing to me.

But when I stormed into the Debius headquarters in London, I found many more diamonds than I expected, which had been kept in their basement for a long time.

There were hundreds of boxes about the size of an apple box in Safe 1, 2, and 3, and each box was packed to the brim with diamonds. Apart from that, there were even large, special colored diamonds stored separately.

That’s when I recalled the rumors about Debius.

The rumor was that if Debius sold all the diamonds they were storing, the value of diamonds would decrease more than gold in an instant. This meant that the amount of diamonds stockpiled by the Debius headquarters was literally huge.

As if he was shocked by my actions, Eileo, taken as a hostage, handed me his cell phone and opened his mouth.

“Well, I got a call from Debius’s Chairman Connenty.”

I immediately grabbed the cell phone that he gave me because I had been waiting for his call.

I told him, “I will give you exactly 12 hours. If you don’t come to me in person by that time, the company called Debius will disappear along with the diamonds. And you will be no exception.”

As soon as I said that, I immediately ended the call because it was more effective to talk with him face to face rather than over the phone for a genuine and substantive conversation.

Even though I gave him 12 hours, he appeared exactly seven hours later.

He was accompanied by only two attendants, as if to show he had no intention of being hostile to me.

I beckoned to him, who hesitated to approach me even after he got off the helicopter.

Then he approached me, and stretched out his hands in a break from his initial hesitant attitude.

Of course, he did so to shake hands with me, but I knew well that he didn’t do so just to shake hands. In other words, he wanted to give me the impression that he was on par with me, so I needed to treat him as an equal.

Of course, I could ignore his outreach in an instant.

For example, I could crumple his helicopter into a lump of scrap metal by gesturing with my hand, and freeze the whole area around me in an instant.

With a smile on my lips, however, I grabbed his hand because I didn’t want to cause any chaos or simply loot.

So when I shook hands with him, Chairman Connenty opened his mouth first.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Debius Chairman Connenty.”

“Lumen. My name is Lumen.”

I had already introduced myself to Oliveira in S?o Paulo, Brazil, as Lumen, so I did the same to him.

“Lumen… that’s a good name. Anyway, we seemed to have understood each other. I know it’s late, but isn’t it better for us to clear up our misunderstanding?”

“Good. We have to clear it up as soon as possible because the more you delay it, the more disaster you will bring about.”

“…”

Even though I didn’t tell him specifically how he would be hit hard, Chairman Connenty seemed to be tactful enough to get my point.

So he hardened his face for a moment, but then he brightened his expression again before speaking to me.

“You’re right. Misunderstanding breeds distrust, as you know. But I can say clearly that I am not responsible for causing the misunderstanding between us. I’m a victim…”

In fact, it was no wonder he would have been shocked after hearing the news that I had appeared in and destroyed all the areas that were being very well managed by them in Sierra Leone. Besides, I also stormed their headquarters and took away all their diamonds there.

But I rebuked him right away.

“Oh, no, you are not a victim! You traded diamonds illegally, right? If you want to talk about the real victims, they are the Sierra Leone people and their legitimate government, even though they are as corrupt as the rebels. Do they recognize your illegal ownership these days?”

“…”

Chairman Connenty became silent at my rebuke.

But I continued without caring about his reaction.

“You guys have committed too many crimes such as smuggling, kidnapping, providing weapons for the rebels, aiding and abetting murders, conspiring to overthrow other countries with the rebels, among many others. Well, if you still think what I’ve mentioned is unfair, bring me the documents showing you own the diamond mines in Sierra Leone, or other certified documents.”

Of course, there was no chance that he had those documents.

Obviously, Sierra Leone’s diamond mines were owned by the state, but the rebels occupied them illegally. Debius made illegal trading with the rebels, providing them with weapons or information about the government forces, so they could continue to maintain possession of the mines.

Watching Chairman Connenty, who was still unable to answer, I said something shocking.

“Do you still want those areas in Sierra Leone? Then take them from me! Just like I took them after cracking down on these garbage rebels, you can do the same thing to me. Got it?”

“…”

As soon as I finished talking to him, I put my hand into the pocket of my shirt.

Then I grabbed a handful of rough diamonds, pulled them out, and put them down on the table so he could see them.

“By the way, I hear these diamonds are the gems of gems. Don’t you think you’re selling them at too expensive a price? I’m praising you, not swearing at you. That’s how you are supposed to do business. But…”

Then I picked up about four rough diamonds on the table with my thumb and forefinger and squeezed slightly.

At first, it sounded like a squeaking noise as if I was scratching the blackboard with finger nails, which made him frown. Then I rubbed them with my thumb and forefinger. The diamonds became powder, and slowly began to blow away in the wind.

“Do diamonds represent eternal or unchanging love? It doesn’t necessarily look that way.”

Tap! Tap!
