Chapter 186: Tell Me Which Company’s Lights Never Go Out

Gangnam's Teheran-ro, with darkness settled over it.

Chung-seop and Mun-guk Oh followed silently behind Seong-ho, who'd dragged them out into the street saying he'd show them which companies to invest in. They couldn't tell what a darkened street had to do with companies to invest in, but they didn't think Seong-ho had brought them out for no reason at all.
