11 : In this world, the police have become the Homicide Squad.

The redevelopment area in Cheonho-dong, which came back, was more desolate than before.

The building that was being renovated was split in half and collapsed. The crater on the floor created by Mina defeating the mutant spider was only half filled.

It was clearly informing us that the construction was stopped in the middle because there was a problem with money or something.

The barriers erected for safety have collapsed in several places, and the windshield to prevent rainwater inserted as if replacing the wall is shaking with the wind, creating a dreary atmosphere.

This is also a place where many accidents are frequent. I had a random thought that if it was abandoned like this, there would be an additional haunted house where many people gather.

than that On the subject of leaving a note to come here, no one can be seen nearby. I can’t see the gap, and I can’t even see the black snake.

what is this It’s not like they mistyped the address. Are you hiding somewhere? I’ve prepared everything, but I can’t help but feel anxious.

I looked around but couldn’t see anyone, so I stopped checking outside and took a cautious step inside-

Suwook!

“uh.”

As soon as I took a step, I was caught by a hand that came up from the floor. The moment I recognized that arm, my body fell to the floor according to gravity.

I almost lost consciousness for a moment, but when I managed to catch it, a strange place appeared in front of my eyes.

Inside looking downstairs. There are lights lit everywhere, and men with a fierce look in black suits can be seen. Sai was sitting on a folding chair in the middle, tied tightly to a rope.

Sai was limp and motionless. like fainting. I don’t see any obvious trauma, but I don’t know if there are any scars under the clothes.

I said after slowly organizing the information in my head.

“… … There is a welcome greeting.”

“I’m inviting the famous Sgt.

A voice came from behind. I looked back. There, a grumpy man with a tattoo of a snake on his face was smiling and showing off an expensive-looking suit coat.

It was clear that the man was manipulating the snake that invited me, as black snakes swarmed around him.

Okay, looking at the fact that he even drew a snake on his face, his superpower must be the ability to manipulate snakes. Or something similar to that.

I counted the number of men in suits, who hid most of their body features in the shadow of the lights and stood silently, wary of their surroundings.

Even if you consider that there are additional people in the dark, there are about 10 people. But looking at the animal-like cries among the dogs, there seem to be a few mutants… … .

“Is this your first time meeting like this? it’s snake As you can see now, you can’t do anything alone. All the guys here are more dangerous than the famous ones.”

“Sergeant Lee Mun-soo, since we met for the first time, I’m giving you just one warning, but you better quietly follow my words. If you do anything strange now, I will kill all of your friends, as I warned you.”

The man with the snake tattoo said that and touched his cell phone. Shortly thereafter, a message arrived on the cell phone I had in my arms.

As the man with the snake tattoo told me to check, I checked the message as it was. The message contained what appeared to be a short video link.

When I clicked on that link, I saw Captain Kim walking somewhere-

It was a simple threat that if he didn’t listen to me, he could do something to Captain Kim right away.

“good. So what to do?”

“Aha, good. I like people who understand words quickly. What you need to do now is simple. You should kill that woman from now on.”

Snake said that and touched my arms. This guy already knew I brought a pistol.

Knowing what I brought, starting with Captain Kim, meant that he was the one who put the straw in the investigation team Yagi had talked about.

If it was simply this, he would be a dangerous guy who doesn’t know his name and doesn’t know his abilities, but his next words erased that thought.

“Don’t stare at me like that. I’m doing this now because I’m actually a fan of yours. Do you know who that woman is?”

“That woman you cared for for two months is actually the real villain who made the psychic stimulant? I was going to find out about it and just kill it with my own hands-“

“A detective who works tirelessly to find the culprit who made the psychic stimulants every day. Among them, you caught my eye~”

At Snake’s words, the snakes around him hissed mockingly.

I inform you that it is he who secretly made the psychic stimulant, and that all the incidents I have experienced so far are due to Sai.

This son of a bitch, the way he talks is fucked. It’s a really shit talk.

In addition, this guy is a coward who tried to deal with Sai when he lost his memory, but is afraid of that meticulous and scary woman, so he wants me to do the job instead.

I now understand why the name Snake was so unfamiliar.

All of the guys underneath are not in the novel, but this coward is not the level of name in the novel.

pestilence. I didn’t know who Snake was and thought he might be a very dangerous guy, so I prepared everything, but I feel like I didn’t have to.

I first took out the gun according to the guy’s words. Snake smiled as he came to Homicide Unit and looked at the newly issued handgun.

It’s a miraculous way of speaking that doesn’t break out when you listen to it. I put on a disgusted look at the snakes crawling under my feet on purpose so as not to curse at this guy.

But in the meantime, Snake put his arm on my shoulder as if he were a friend and told me to take care of it right away.

I had a strong desire to turn the gun on him right away, but with superhuman patience, I somehow endured it and asked him just in case.

“okay. You are so kind. But where are you? An underground building hidden in Cheonho-dong?”

“Ah- no. This is a redevelopment complex underground above. There was a plan to build a parking lot or something, but it was abandoned as the development fizzled out. Well, the skeleton must have been strong, and the basement was fine. It’s impossible for a normal human being to come in- but what use is that to people like us?”

Thankfully, Snake answered my question obediently.

That meant that I was certain that I couldn’t resist him right now.

I didn’t like the look any more, so I stood still with a pistol in my hand.

Snake, who was putting his arm on my shoulder, slightly wrinkled his face at my appearance, but soon smiled and said.

“Yeah, as expected, detective of justice. It’s really great. But what? Miracles don’t happen to detectives today like they used to. So far, you think you’ve survived because you’re brilliant. no.”

“Special Investigation Team, why do you think you survived when other cops there die every day? It’s because that woman has been hiding behind you all this time and bothering you just enough to keep you from dying.”

“But not now. You have no way now. die. But if you kill her, I’ll let you live. Is that a good thing?”

“Even that woman, disguised as a man, pretended to be an assistant shooter next to you and drove her colleagues to death. look! If we kill here, we will avenge our dead comrades and set the world right. Just close your eyes and pull it!”

What is it? Why are all the criminals talking bullshit like it’s normal? I forced myself to chew on the inside of my cheek and swallowed a laugh.

Now, even if I shoot Sai, and if the real Sai dies as it is, it will not be able to stop the superpower stimulant from spreading throughout the world.

He will, too, because this son of a bitch next to me will take his place in between.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just looking at it, this guy can’t commit a crime as elaborate as Sai, so I wonder if it would be better.

If it is known that this bastard holds power in the process of handing over the strong power and power that Sai currently possesses to someone else.

Others will also rebel, and a war will break out between Sai’s subordinates, and then, a mess on the level of the original chaos event may occur.

Or it could get even worse.

I held my breath and slowly examined the condition between them. Just like the first time I saw Sai, he didn’t move as if he was conscious- Oh, he was awake.

For an instant, the blue eyes were immersed in his eyes. I saw her eyes, trembling with horror and fear, somehow pretending to faint.

I checked it out and slowly pointed the gun at Sai.

I let out a breath I had been holding back as I watched Snake giggle next to me.

Timing, is it time? Even if you calculate the error time, this would be okay.

I waited with my teeth gritting at the sensation that time was passing several times slower than usual – and I pulled the trigger toward the sky.

bang!!

“… … What are you doing?”

“Did you see Korean police carrying live ammunition from the start?”

The special investigation team put live ammunition from the beginning to deal with the psychics, but it is not a homicide squad. Up to two rounds of live ammunition should be fired into the air to give a warning shot.

I laughed at the snake guy staring at me. He seemed very annoyed that I didn’t shoot between them, but he shouldn’t have looked like that, so what should I do?

I put the pistol I had in my hand back into my chest. Snake put strength on the arm that was placed on my shoulder in response to my action.

Pudeudeuk, the pain runs, and the face is distorted. Snake looked at my face and said with a grim face.

“I guess you didn’t understand the situation? Do you think you can survive this time because you’ve been lucky to live on the floor? Does an incompetent person who is not even a psychic really want to die?”

The snakes crawling on the floor reveal their fangs and start climbing up my legs.

And as if proving their existence beyond the darkness, the mutants who cried out revealed their vicious faces and glared at me as if they were going to kill me.

The suits looked like they were preparing for what-if situations by glaring at them while pretending to faint without even moving.

If that’s the case, maybe you shouldn’t have brought me here. Seriously, I don’t understand this kid’s mind.

It’s understandable that you can’t kill Sai because you’re scared. It is understandable to want to borrow someone else’s hand to kill it. But ask the police to do that, you idiot.

No matter how much I am related to the relationship, can I treat the police like an idiot?

“no way. But there’s one thing you don’t understand right now, so I’m going to tell you.”

“… … understanding?”

Snake asked back at my words. I took out the police walkie-talkie I had put in one of my pockets and showed it to him.

Radio powered on. Seeing the radio, Snake snorted in ridicule.

“police? Do you think you can survive just by calling police support?”

Uh- I did call police support. Of course, it’s a kidnapping case, and the police have to come.

But I purposely brought this walkie-talkie for one reason. It’s embarrassing for me as a cop to tell you, but this radio is so insecure that even a high school girl could hack it.

If you use something like this to communicate with the police, even a high school girl hacking the police radio with a cell phone will be able to easily know the current situation.

But there was a problem. Even if a guy named Snake explained where this place was by kindness, I don’t know exactly where it is, so even if I tried to enter this place, it wouldn’t be easy to get in because of the risk of getting caught in it-

Wouldn’t it be a different story if there was something like a blank shot that could inform the exact location?

Instead of explaining these things, instead of the pocket I kept the gun in, I took out the one I put in my inside pocket. A black, L-shaped object that appears to be made of plastic.

“… … Taser gun? Do you think that would work for a psychic like me? If you shoot it, you die.”

“I know it doesn’t work. But most of them were upset because they were sick.”

And now I need that momentary gap. I just pulled the trigger

The taser gun fired right in front of me was stuck in the arm that Snake was brandishing nervously. Pajijik-! The taser gun fired with a noise, but Snake pulled out the stinger in less than a second.

However, in that instant, it was already in the state of rushing to Sai. He rolled on the floor as he hugged her.

Before Snake could react further, the ceiling shattered with an explosion. With a shock as if the world was collapsing, the sunset in the sky descended underground.

“New Hope!!”

I heard the screams of Snake and several other suits.

I ignored it and thought about escaping from the basement holding each other, but unfortunately a huge concrete shard fell over our heads that we couldn’t avoid –

“Detective!!”

After New Hope broke the debris, I and Sai were simultaneously pulled up and sent out. It’s like lightning speed.

“Stay here. I’ll get it sorted out soon”

After New Hope said that, she glanced at Sai and flew down again.

Since the radio was still on, he must have heard what Snake had to say. So, who Sai was, she and the other cops must have heard.

Afterwards, Sai will start an investigation based on Snake’s testimony, and if I submit the USB I have as evidence- it may be possible to prove the crime between the lost memory.

A siren sounded in the distance. The radio starts ringing loudly. Since the goblin was sent to the class president, it would be meaningless even if Snake tried to do something to vent his anger.

It takes a while for the goblin to do my favor with an unpleasantly friendly response, but that’s something to think about later.

I laid my exhausted body on the dirt floor and laughed at Snake who was about to be beaten by New Hope on the floor.

“bastard. How many times have I been beaten, do you think I came without any preparation… … .”

If you came without any preparation this time, you would be a real asshole. I even set the call sign to match the timing in advance, bastard.

We’re giggling and laughing at that snake kid. Unbeknownst to me, the relationship I was holding in my arms was wriggling.

Sai shivered and slowly lifted his head and met my eyes. Sai’s blue eyes were clouded with tears. Sai was crying now.

The fear of the sudden kidnapping, the joy of being saved, and the mixture of unknown fear, his face was so miserable that his appearance was now fading.

But that’s for a while. Sai buried his face in my arms and cried.

“ah… … I really… … Is it real? teacher. Am I the one who made something called a psychic stimulant? he said… … Is everything true?”

In response to Sai’s question, I was at a loss as to what to answer. This woman, who lost her memory and was thrown into the world alone, is now being judged for a crime she can’t even remember.

Obviously, before, without hesitation, even if he had no memory, he said that since he was the one who committed the crime, he should be punished, and even now, as a police officer, he will say what he has to say.

Seeing faces crying with guilt and fear… … My mouth didn’t come off at all.

That’s why I’d rather have her live a proper life instead of a woman who is no different from a devil after she has lost her memory for the rest of her life, receives a proper trial, and receives punishment according to the trial.

“… … yes. Those words are true. You killed a lot of people, and before that, you ruined a lot of people’s lives with the medicine you made.”

“ah.”

At my words, Sai let out a sigh and lowered his head. Tears fell from Sai’s eyes, and Sai sobbed.

“Tea, rather… … Then you should have killed me from below… … If I had really done that… … Wouldn’t it be better for me to die… … ?”

Sai also must have seen it several times while watching the news. People whose lives have been ruined by becoming psychics, and countless people who have lost their lives due to incidents committed by psychics.

How does it feel to find out that all the incidents that had been dismissed as tragedies caused by unknown persons were all his fault.

I hugged them with both arms. I felt a warm feeling on my body.

And then I realized that during these two months, while she had sneaked up on me at night and attempted to touch me many times, I had never hugged or hugged her directly.

I couldn’t bear it if I didn’t do something for the person who would have to bear the unremembered sin in the future.

As a police officer, the victim will remember what was lost, and the fact that she has committed a crime will not change, so even if she does not remember, she must feel guilty and ask for forgiveness.

Of course, if it was the original relationship, there would never be anything like guilt, but the relationship I saw for two months was different.

If you get a proper trial, the punishment will end someday. She will do a really good atonement. If so… … .

“I’ll wait.”

It’s funny that the person who arrested Sai himself said that, but I couldn’t think of anything else to say other than me, so I said something absurd.

For only two months of living together, the accumulated affection made me say this. I think Jung is really scary.

I patted her on the back slowly, as my mother had done to me in my previous life. Then she sobbed even louder and buried her face in my arms, and Sai spoke in a sobbing voice.

It’s such a simple act, but why does it feel so bloated and ominous?

“Ahh… … why. Didn’t I meet you before doing this? It’s unfortunate. I’m in so much pain… … If I could turn back time, I’d do it… … . You’re really waiting for me… … ?”

“Vice-captain…”

Vice-captain. At that one word, I felt the hairs on my whole body stand up.

I hurriedly pushed Sai out of my bosom and quickly took out a pistol from my bosom and aimed it. and fired

All five bullets were fired at Sai without missing. 2 heads. 3 feet towards the heart.

My skills, which always won first place in shooting competitions, shined and I fired a steel bullet at the target location, but the bullet bounced off without even scratching her skin.

“-Ahh… … Also, you figured it out. It was so warm, so happy, so happy that my hair broke. Oops, to make such a stupid mistake… … .”

I held my breath as I looked at the muttering blankly as if I was dreaming.

Her appearance didn’t change at all. In an instant, the atmosphere changed. The woman trembling in his arms quickly became an unknown monster.

I’m choking and screaming right now, and my soul screams that I have to get this off.

It’s a monster. A monster is ahead. I see a monster that manipulates the world and tramples on people.

The long blonde hair was disheveled and opened like a curtain. The flower-shaped devil smiles slowly.

since when When did you get your memory back?

Sai looked at me and raised only the corner of his mouth from the sobbing face. A strange and frightening face looks at me, unable to tell whether it is laughing or crying.

“But, everything you just said is true. Vice-captain. For two months, I had fun eating with you, spending time with you and being warm, I’m so happy that you hugged me and brought me to tears. Ah, yes, I was curious about the name of this emotion.”

“Now, now I know what this is. … … aaah – it can’t be like this. Vice-captain. If I reflect on everything I’ve done and ask for forgiveness, if I don’t do anything bad in the future- will you, will you accept me?”

The eyes are weeping, but the mouth is smiling. The unpleasant feeling of facing a ghost. With a misaligned and broken face, Sai asked the question he had asked the night they first met.

I looked into her blue eyes.

Looking at her eyes burning blue with desire and madness, I felt intuition that the woman in front of me was not the person I had been with for two months.

That’s why, without the slightest hesitation, he answered the same.

“You killed a man.”

“How can I be forgiven by someone who has already died?”

You can’t get forgiveness from the dead. Because dead people don’t come back.

But I know. If I’d rather just close my eyes and tell her that, she might stop doing anything worse than this.

I’ll wait. With that one word, all cases could be resolved.

but, but that’s it No matter how you think about it, no matter how you try to put up with it, there are things that people cannot tolerate physiologically.

“And I am not the one to ask for forgiveness. You have to ask for forgiveness from the people you killed.”

“But do you remember even one person you killed?”

“… … .”

“And I’m asking because I’m really, really curious. Can you convince yourself that you can’t kill people after that?”

In response to my question, Sai remained silent. I let out a disgusted laugh while watching the tragic heroine play under the sunset sky.

“Bastard.”

At least if you don’t have memory, you can understand if you don’t remember who you killed. But that, isn’t that? Don’t you have any intention of reflecting in the first place?

After throwing the gun, I clenched my teeth and put my hand in my pocket to pull out the syringe for neutralizing psychic powers.

“I hate this… … .”

His hand touched the floor with a short sigh.

The result of such a light and simple motion was not simple.

As if the earth’s axis were twisted, the heavens and the earth shook. Caught in the wall of rising earth, I lost consciousness.
