"Okay, as long as Ahn Cheol-so withdraws from the election, I will immediately contact President Kim of the Association of the Elderly."
"Thank you, Mayor."
"Let's do it a little harder."
"Yes."
"Here's the latest news coverage of the 20th Congressman election."
After the announcer of SBS's eight-o'clock news finished speaking, the camera cut to a male reporter standing on Capitol Road.
The male reporter held the microphone and said to the camera, "At 5:17 p.m. today, Councillor Ahn Cheol-so of the C constituency of Aorwon-gu suddenly issued a statement saying that he would withdraw from the election of the 20th National Assembly, and after we have just reconfirmed with the chief assistant officer of Councillor Ahn that Councillor Ahn has submitted an application to the Election Committee to withdraw from the election and has been approved by the Election Committee, according to Councillor Ahn's secretary, Councillor Ahn withdrew from the election due to personal reasons, SBS reporter, Bae Yong-sung. ”
There are different opinions about Ahn Cheol-so's withdrawal from the election, some people say that he was caught by other candidates, and some people say that he realized that he did not have the talent for politics and withdrew from the election, but Ahn Cheol-so's assistant team gave the official statement that Ahn Cheol-so would go to the United States to recharge and study, so he had to give up this general election.

Hannam-dong, inside the Goo family villa.
After seeing the news of Ahn Cheol-so's withdrawal from the election, Gu Benmao looked at his son Gu Guangmo in disbelief and asked, "Ahn Cheol-so actually withdrew from the election?" ”
"Father, I didn't expect Congressman Ahn Cheol-so to withdraw from the election."
"Did Guo Dahai do it?"
"I don't know, Ahn Cheol-so's withdrawal from the election and Guo Dae's release by the Seoul Northern District Prosecutor's Office are only two days apart, what can he do in these two days?"
Gu Guangmo said that he couldn't guess what prompted Ahn Cheol-so to withdraw from the election.
"Huh...... This guy is really interesting. ”
Goomoto's curiosity was completely aroused, and he smiled to himself.

Nowwon-gu, Seoul
In the election office of Guo Dahai in Shangxi 5-dong, Yin Shuhao didn't know who he was talking to on the phone, so he trotted to the office and said to Guo Dahai, who was browsing the news of the general election on the Internet: "Brother, Rep. Ahn Cheol-so's Adjutant Liang called me just now, and he wanted to ask me to meet. ”
"Did he ask you to meet to talk about the election?"
"Well, last time there was a lot of trouble between Li Junxi and Councilor Ahn, and I guess Assistant Minister Liang wanted to talk to us about cooperation."
"Okay, go ahead, the members of their group of assistants just want work or money, Shu Haona, you remember, it doesn't matter if you have more money, but you don't need to talk about coming to work by my side."
"Yes, I understand."
——
At more than 1 o'clock in the afternoon, when Guo Dahai was about to lie on the sofa to rest after eating, he received a call from Yin Shuhao.
"Hey."
"Hey, brother, Assistant Officer Liang gave him his conditions, the five of them, each of them wants to get an extra month's salary, I calculated, a total of 350 million is needed."
"Okay, you tell them for me, as long as they can help me win the votes of the People's Party, I will arrange for someone to get the money for them."
"Yes."
April 11th
With less than two days to go until the official vote, the candidates are making their last ditches.
In front of KT Square in Sanghe 2-dong, Lee Jun Seok set up an election stage here, where members of his auxiliary group and members of the New National Party danced and sang a cheerful song written for Lee Jun Seok's ballot:
"Awara C, please choose No. 3 Lee Jun-seok, down-to-earth and hard-working Lee Jun-seok, always with the people, dedicated to the people who think about Awara, believe in No. 3 Lee Jun-seok, down-to-earth and hard-working Lee Jun-seok......"
Lee Jun Seok, wearing a red hat that symbolizes the color of the New National Party, shook hands with the citizens passing by one by one, "Hello, I am candidate No. 3 Lee Jun Seok. ”
About 500 meters northwest of KT Plaza, there is a Lotte Department Store, and Guo Dahai also set up an election stage in the square in front of the mall.
"Please support candidate No. 5, Guo Dahai."
"Please cast your sacred vote for candidate No. 5 Guo Dahai."
After returning to South Korea last night, Jung Hae-chan threw himself into canvassing for votes before he had time to rest, shaking hands with passers-by with Son Seung-ho, Cho Ji-yeon and others in the hope of gaining their support.
"Brother, look at today's news."
Yin Shuhao quietly walked up to Guo Dahai and said to him.
"Okay."
Guo Dahai took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and the People's Party issued a voice condemning the candidate Lee Jun-seok through the Central Daily.
The reason is that according to the members of Rep. Ahn Cheol-so's auxiliary group, Ahn Cheol-so came up with the idea of withdrawing from the election after meeting with Lee Jun-seok, so the People's Party regarded Lee Jun-seok as the initiator of Ahn Cheol-so's withdrawal, and the members of the auxiliary group collectively denounced Lee Jun-seok and hoped that Ahn Cheol-so's supporters would not vote for the enemy.
"Wow, it's Mayor Park."
Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
"Hello, Mayor."
Park Won-soon walked slowly across the street, and the citizens greeted him one after another, and it was clear that he was very popular among the citizens of Seoul.
Guo Dahai immediately put away his mobile phone and stepped forward, "Hello, Lord Mayor." ”
"Okay, Candidate Guo, this is President Kim of the Seoul Senior Citizens Association."
Park Won-soon specially brought Chairman Kim to cheer for Kwak Dae this time, with the purpose of using Chairman Kim's prestige among the elderly to win him the votes of the elderly in the C constituency of Nowwon-gu.
"Hello Mr. Kim."
Chairman Kim's age looks to be around 70-80 years old, and he has a lot of energy, "Hello Candidate Guo. ”
The two shook hands, and Guo Dae invited Park Won-soon and Chairman Kim to the election stage.
"Candidate Guo Dahai was very serious when he used to work in our city hall, and I believe that if everyone votes for him, he will not disappoint everyone."
Park Won-soon stood on the stage and spoke, and then Chairman Kim also said, "Candidate Guo and I have talked about a lot of policies that are beneficial to our elderly, and you can trust him." ”
Guo Dahai ...... Guo Dahai ......"
Zheng Haican took the lead in calling Guo Dahai's name, and then the others also shouted his name, and the atmosphere reached a boiling point for a while.
"Brother" Yoon Shu-ho came from a distance on a bicycle, he gasped and said, "Over there, President Park is here over there." ”
Guo Dae told Park Won-soon the news that President Park went to Lee Jun-seok, and the other party frowned and said, "Let's go over together, after all, we are presidents, and we can't say hello." ”
"Yes."
