I Became a Cop in the Superhero Genre

12 : Even if the world is in chaos, the police work.

Mina, no New Hope, killed a man.

The supervillain Hahoetal died on the spot. The scene was broadcast live by a news helicopter that was relaying the situation.

People’s reactions to it were divided into three main categories.

With people who say what’s wrong with killing a supervillain who is trying to kill students.

People who say they killed people for whatever reason, so they still need to be investigated.

And the others are people who look at New Hope’s bare face and dig into her past.

Looking at the group of people with so many different impressions – I was so full of energy.

“There was something somber every day at that orphan school, but it was really New Hope? Somehow New Hope seems suspicious.”

“The orphan killed people too. gotta catch it right now What are the police doing?”

“Hey, but you saved us, can I say that?”

“Oh what? What is scary about an orphan?”

The words above are the conversations the students had as they gathered the students who were held hostage in one place to listen to the case.

It’s been tens of minutes since I cried out for help, but as soon as I know who New Hope is, I ignore it and laugh at it, calling it an orphan.

At this point, it seems that the issue of skill is not a problem of humanity or anything like that.

I was genuinely curious about what was going on in their heads, so I asked the children before investigating the case.

“What are you guys going to do if he really has a bad heart?”

“Hey? What do you think he’s afraid of? And no matter what she tries to do, she’s an orphan, and shouldn’t the police take care of it?”

“Even if his army fires missiles at them, they can’t stop.”

I don’t know what the current level is, but it was like that in the original novel.

Even in the novel, Mina was chased by the police when her original name was discovered, but she was not caught for granted.

No, I couldn’t catch it, you’re right.

Instead of getting shot right in the head with a shotgun and dying, the mutants were all a little annoyed. What if it was Mina who could easily trample on those mutants?

Neither Sai nor Mina can be caught in the usual way.

No, honestly, how can you beat a person who can’t stop even if he raises his tactical shield and shoots at it?

To be honest, in my opinion, if Sai starts rampaging with real force, I wonder if we can do anything about it by dropping nuclear weapons on South Korea.

And if it’s Mina, who is described as being on the same level as him, it goes without saying.

But these bastards are talking shit about such a kid right now.

My stomach boils because I see how he treats Mina on a regular basis, but seeing all the kids who can’t judge the situation and say shit, I want to ask one thing.

I asked the guy who was talking about Mina as an orphan and an orphan with the loudest voice.

“How are your grades?”

“that… … Why is that?”

“I need it for the case investigation.”

“… … 31st place… … .”

“There are 31 of you in one class, right?”

“yes.”

I smiled warmly. It was a real lack of intelligence.

I ignored those guys and thought about it while collecting student eyewitness testimonies and writing a report.

Things like Yagi being the head of the special investigation team due to the case of Mina killing a person and the raid on the research center will be dealt with more than I expected.

Anything that has a connection with the murder of a famous hero will be gnawing at the media.

Listening to Yagi’s statement that the witness heard it, it seemed like the correct answer was that Sai was simply trying to harass Mina, and that he was trying to kill Mina with the special investigation team.

No, is the answer correct? To be honest, things are so twisted that I’m not even sure.

“Sergeant Lee Moon-soo. What should I do about New Hope, who has now fled? I tried to track it down, but I missed it.”

“… … Is that so.”

New Hope, or Mina, ran away like a frightened cat right after I witnessed the scene and before I could say anything.

How could I have caught Mina running away with all her might?

The police, who had rushed from the office of the special investigation team, also found the scene and were busy collecting Yagi’s body, rescuing the students, and organizing the situation.

I reviewed all the testimonies of students who witnessed the scene with an unlit cigarette in their mouth.

Yagi put his own life and the lives of his students on the scales and threatened them. It must have been an order from Sai.

If it were Mina, she would have tried to find a third option, but if the result was Sai, even Mina couldn’t overcome the malice of a woman who would sacrifice her life.

It is miserable. It sucks that I couldn’t do anything because I was trapped in ice.

Just before running away, Mina’s face came to mind. That trembling face, not knowing what to do, reminded me of the first time we met.

If there is anything different from the time when he lost his family and even prepared to kill to avenge his family at the bottom, would it be that he is trembling in fear after committing a real murder?

crazy year. What are you trying to do by sacrificing your subordinates?

Neutralize the Special Investigation Team? If that was the case, he shouldn’t have let Yagi die.

If Yagi hadn’t died, if we had failed to apprehend him, we’d be in for the worst.

If she survives and acts as a supervillain, that alone will fuel distrust and hatred towards the police, and even the top will not be able to operate a special investigation team.

In addition, one arm is blown off, and even in a state of freezing and dying, a powerful psychic who can stop Mina is rampant, I hate to imagine.

But Yagi is dead. by Mina’s hand. In an extreme situation, even if they were such cubs, they died while trampling on the heart of the child they tried to save.

Isn’t this enough to simply want to bully Mina? Was there anything Sai could do to hold a grudge against Mina?

It was Mina who was kind to the one who lost her memory and deliberately cared more. Why are you such a good kid?

I couldn’t stand the cramped feeling and lit the cigarette in my mouth.

shitty world. Somehow, I should have known something was wrong from the time the top police officer was doing his job properly.

Cigarette smoke rises through the sky.

I took out my cell phone and quietly sent Mina a message. Mina read the message, but there was no reply.

I made a phone call. The reception sound continued, but it cut off in an instant. No matter how many times I called, it was the same.

‘[ – It is connected to the voice mail because it is not connected. Call charges apply. When it beeps-]’

I stood there blankly until the cigarette I lit at the sound of the notification sound burned to the filter.

I had no choice but to stand there.

*****

“It was a really cool performance. Sergeant Lee Moon-soo! It’s unfortunate that we failed to apprehend the suspect, but it worked out better than we imagined! hahahaha!”

Even though the scene of the incident had not yet been cleaned up, I was half-forced and taken to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency when I was called from above.

The police commissioner who greeted me greeted me with a friendly smile.

Although they failed to apprehend the suspect, it turned out that the main figure of the opposing faction was a criminal, and there were zero civilian victims.

Even the failure to apprehend the suspect was not the fault of the police, but the murder of an illegal vigilante was broadcast live.

High will probably give all the credit to the police and give all the trouble to New Hope.

“As promised, we prepare a special task force centered on Sergeant Lee Moon-soo. Now that it’s revealed that two supervillains were secretly working in the Special Investigation Team, they’re going to have to do a major overhaul, but-

I know that. The preparations for the launching ceremony of the special task force are over, even tomorrow. Right now, Sergeant Lee Moon-soo has something to do for society and the people. Are you okay?”

The police chief said with a grin.

It was easy to guess what to do. As I thought, it means standing in front of the media and talking.

Yagi was looking for evidence of the supervillain Hahoetal, and failed to arrest him due to New Hope’s interference.

It was clear that the script would be written with the tone that great progress had been made in the investigation of the supervillains controlling Hahoetal. I put all my faults on him.

It sucks, but it was expected, so I nodded my head. I headed for the press conference with the police uniform in my hand that the Commissioner of Police had prepared in advance.

crazy. They don’t even give me time to bring clothes, and they give me new ones. I changed my clothes in the car on the way to the press conference, listening to what I should and shouldn’t say.

“… … Hey, you’re wearing your pants backwards.”

“Oh crazy.”

… … damn it My brain is out of order.

As I awkwardly changed my pants, I overheard the talk about the importance of this press conference held by a suit man and the social stability it would provide.

Now I’m stumped too. My thoughts are out of order.

Mina killed a man. So, as if anything could be done, Mina’s personal information is spreading all over the internet, and people who say whatever they like about it are rampaging.

I have seen civilians with criminals in their families suffer over and over again, but it is devastating to see a child who has been caring for like a daughter or nephew go through this.

I don’t even know where I went without being contacted. The wound wouldn’t have healed yet. Did you eat rice?

It is true that this child killed a person. But how will this be handled legally?

In addition to Mina being a minor, there is a possibility of a non-prosecution disposition or a dismissal of the prosecution due to the circumstances.

If Mina, the hero, gives up the fight here, the possibility of arresting Sai completely disappears.

But can the child accept the fact that he killed a person with his own hands and rise again? Can I force such a terrible determination on that child?

“- Sifal.”

The opposite sex as a police officer and the emotions accumulated while taking care of a child do not mesh with each other and are about to break down.

As I was rubbing my forehead with a headache, the man in the suit who had been chattering in the car looked out the window and said,

“Im here. Then, as I said, just say what is written in this script. For any other questions, please refer to the spokesperson.”

“yes.”

“Remember. This press conference determines the honor of the police and the safety of citizens.”

… … Honestly, I wasn’t going to say this, but you guys don’t care about society at all. Isn’t it important to keep your own rice bowl, so you’re moving so fast? If not, I’d have a spokesperson, Sipal.

Honest sentiment gets caught on the tip of his tongue and he tries to jump out nervously, but as an adult living a social life, he endures it.

Anyway, this press conference is to reassure people by using my name value, and a proper incident report will follow after I go out and say a few words.

Knowing that, I headed to the press conference after dressing up in a particularly uncomfortable uniform today.

Reporters filled the huge hall, and as soon as I stood on the podium, flashes that made my eyes hurt.

Even in the middle of it, I somehow squinted my eyes to read the script. I opened my mouth slowly.

“You waited a long time. On the day, the special investigation team will conduct a brief briefing on the current situation.”

“Around 14:23 on the same day. The police were dispatched after receiving a report of violence from the Seoul Institute of Scientific Investigation.”

“In the course of the suppression, under the leadership of Inspector Jeon Yagi, the head of the special investigation team in Gangdong-gu, the special team 2 confirmed the charges of illegal distribution of supernatural stimulants, instigation of murder, and murder. Confirm the relationship between the supervillains who are the main culprits of the recent prison destruction.”

“As soon as the police confirmed the matter, they executed an operation to arrest the suspect, Inspector General Yagi. In the meantime, it was also confirmed that former Inspector Yagi was a supervillain hypocrite. Execute the arrest operation.”

“At around 15:11, the suspect, Inspector Yagi, reached the XX High School and staged a sit-in. Killed during an engagement with vigilante New Hope. The police rescued the students and cleaned up the scene.”

“The police are currently pursuing the vigilante New Hope, who killed the suspect, and Sai at the same time. We are confident that meaningful results will be forthcoming.”

“The police are doing their best to stabilize society without a single moment of rest for the arrest of all escaped supervillains and between supervillains.”

“This concludes the basic briefing. We will have a Q&A session on things that can be briefly answered at the moment.”

I read everything written in the script.

The police said they were dispatched to the case of the research institute, but there was already an explanation written in the corner of the paper that I leaked to reporters that I had been dispatched and dealt with alone.

It must be an action to build an image of me by narrowing down the questions they will ask. Thinking so, reporters raised their hands and started asking questions as if they had waited.

I pointed out the reporter who should be selected according to the script. Again, the reporter asked a prepared question.

I was the first to respond, followed Yagi until the end, and failed to apprehend the suspect due to New Hope’s horrific deed.

A tedious question-and-answer session follows, implying that it’s not the worst and that things will only get better.

“-Detective Lee Moon-soo. Suspicion is spreading that he has a close relationship with the current murderer, New Hope, or Mina. Is it true?!

If that’s true, can you make the current New Hope arrest?! Didn’t you let go because you knew what you missed right now in the first place?!”

As the Q&A continued, a reporter raised his hand and asked a loud question.

It was a story that spread as information about Mina was scattered on the Internet. What happened to Mina, and what I had done along the way, spread.

It will surely be of interest to journalists as well.

I saw a reporter who raised the corners of his mouth and said he would hold the pod if he answered anything, and then I saw a spokesperson urging me to hand over the microphone to him.

It would be better to just pass this answer to the person next to you and save your words.

It would definitely be better to be loyal to the country and people who are in trouble and to maintain peace with society.

But thinking about it. I am a person who was not loyal to the country and people and wanted to live moderately.

I didn’t want to be a corrupt and incompetent human being, like cops in the superhero genre usually do.

That said, I didn’t want to play the role of making the hero awaken after sacrifice by jumping on his limbs.

It is now and will be so in the future.

But Sifal, don’t be ashamed of the uniform you’re wearing.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been suffering from Si-Palnom’s relationship anyway, and the desire to continue wearing the police uniform has disappeared.

I don’t know what she’s up to, but what can I do to get her out of the way right now? What does that bitch want now?

As I pondered, I soon got an answer. Ignoring the spokesperson standing next to him and the reporter standing stiffly in front of him, he opened his mouth into the microphone.

“yes. I’ve known Hero New Hope for a long time. He is acquainted with Mina, the true identity of New Hope. I took care of her like a little sister.”

“also! Then, all of Detective Lee Moon-soo’s achievements so far, as if they are currently floating on the Internet, are New Hope-”

“Such bullshit is so small. I am saying this because I have something I want to say.”

At my words, the reporter also shuts up for a moment, and the spokesperson hardens his face as if he felt something ominous.

Everyone reacts differently to something, but strangely, there was only one thought that entered my head as I stood in the middle.

No matter how you think about it, what Sai gains from this is the social isolation of New Hope.

So, what is the way to prevent this?

You can’t turn it over to the police. What I’m talking about here is securing trust in the police.

Murders cannot be undone. But in this case, some trash bitch orchestrated this to happen.

And to be honest, the guy who did such a thing to a child who was only a high school student was wrong, but an adult like me who couldn’t stop it was also wrong.

So- what I have to do in this situation is to put the blame on me.

Telling Mina to point the arrow toward me. After being taken to the special investigation team, I never wanted to be promoted, and I have no regrets about taking off my clothes.

I guess I have to do something like this if I don’t want to be embarrassed.

“Today, a high school student who has not reached adulthood has his hands stained with blood due to the scheme of a supervillain who uses supernatural powers to harm people.”

“Criminals have pushed children into extreme situations and forced them to make terrible choices. That is why the incident happened today.”

“Damn it. This is something that, whether as a police officer or as an adult, it is embarrassing to go outside with your head up.”

“It doesn’t matter if the child is superpowered or not. It is embarrassing to put a child in such a situation when he should have been protected by an adult.”

“That is why I will not forgive those who put people’s lives on the scales and forced them to kill people.”

“The police will do what they have to do. Superpowered or not, like every cop I’ve ever fought has been. As a police officer, I will do my duty. I’m going to make sure that I can stand in front of the child, not hide behind him.”

I paused for a moment to catch my breath. And the reporter who had been listening to me absentmindedly dug into the gap and asked.

“You mean you have no intention of capturing New Hope after all?! The police must obey the law! Should I be shaken by emotion!”

“And what’s the law saying that if a psychic monster has killed a man once, he won’t kill another?! Doesn’t that mean that monsters like that should be isolated from society!?”

Hey, was that what you wanted to say in the end? I checked the appearance once to see where the reporter was from.

Let’s see, Mark in a sleazy cheap suit was also a reporter for a newspaper known for being anti-psychic and anti-New Hope.

What they’re doing is third-rate crap, big, crappy bastards, but it’s working for me now. So I kindly replied.

“Isn’t that what you’re going to do? All the witnesses testified that in that situation, Yagi said that there was someone who ordered the team leader to act, and that he would pursue it as a police officer. Arbitrary murder and being forcibly thrown into a situation where you can only commit murder are different.”

“And you said about quarantine. Would you like to ask me one thing? And what are you going to do next? Most of the supervillains currently escaping from prison are criminals arrested by Hero New Hope.”

“Do you think you can re-arrest those criminals without New Hope? gun? The mutants don’t mind if you shoot them with a rifle, right? Are you going to shoot missiles first against monsters that even armored vehicles can throw lightly? Leaving buildings and citizens involved? To be honest, I don’t think even missiles will work.”

“Reporter, do whatever you want and tell me if there is a way. If there is a way to deal with this situation, I will follow it.”

“Lee, Sergeant Lee Moon-soo. that stop… … !”

At my words, the spokesperson and the police nearby harden their faces and try to drag me away. And in the meantime, at my words, the reporter asked with a smile on his face.

“then! Doesn’t that mean that the police can’t solve the current situation with police force alone?! Need help from the murderous vigilante! Is that the police!”

If you’re an aggro guy like this, I wonder if you learned it somewhere in college. However, since such an aggroman is useless, the answer is to ignore it now.

“That’s right. It’s so fucking embarrassing. You and me too.”

Since this is an official press conference, the middle finger is not raised.

I could hear the spokesperson and reporters talking behind me, and I ignored a few men in suits following.

If I dragged the aggro to this extent, the internet would start burning with excitement more with gossip about me than about Mina.

The words that seem to support New Hope are honest. And, as a police officer, it is sincere that you will investigate.

However, the answer to what I said after that was just an aggro. In this situation, is there anything more to say out loud than to say, “Please attack,” and take the coordinates?

But having said that, can people really not do without New Hope? you will think about

And to that extent, public opinion and citizens will start to bite me, and as much as Mina was burned for murder, they will enjoy talking about me again and enjoying themselves.

If that happens, well- the special task force team that is supposed to be made around me will be destroyed, and my clothes can be taken off as it is. Are you aware? What could be scary about a person who physically submitted a resignation letter in his mind several times?

The important thing is that with my remarks now, people will know why Mina committed the murder, and sympathy for Mina can be created.

The people who criticized Mina must be busy trying to rip me, the more attractive prey in front of them.

It’s good no matter what. Anyway, I’m already fucked, so there’s nothing wrong with being a little more fucked up.

So I went back to each other. Contrary to what I thought the Seoul Metropolitan Police Commissioner would come after me to grab me by the neck, surprisingly nothing was said.

It looks like I’ll be transferred to someplace like the Ulleungdo police box around tomorrow, but what? Let’s think about tomorrow’s work tomorrow.

I was just going to pack some clothes from home to pack up for the Homicide Office and go back-

“Detective, sir.”

Suddenly Mina came home knowing how. Mina was wearing a hero costume, but unlike usual, she appeared without an eye mask.

With her eyes reddened as if she had cried a lot, Mina opened her mouth as if she had many things she wanted to say but couldn’t think of anything to say.

I waved my hand at Mina and said.

“Have you eaten. I’ll buy something right now, so wait.”

Let’s buy some food and start. And I’m starting an investigation to catch up.

The uniform draped over my body that I thought so—-for some reason, it felt slightly lighter than before.
