103.

After that.

I got out of the police car and called Seo In-na.

“Yes, Inspector Kang. What’s going on?”

I then told Seo In-na about the incident I had heard from Yeon Ji-woo.

Then she let out a short sigh.

“Public people… A corporate gangster was also involved?”

“yes.”

“It got complicated. Rather, what about Grandpa?”

I looked at Kwon Tae-soo, who came out with me.

He was muttering a double curse that he couldn’t bear in the car.

“These fleshy bastards who will tear you apart-”

“You’re swearing next to me.”

“… I guess so.”

Seo In-na let out a laugh.

Meanwhile, did he notice that he was talking about himself?

Suddenly, Kwon Tae-soo’s gaze met mine.

Immediately, he asked a question.

“That student. What will happen to that student now?”

Because that was a question not for me, but for Seo In-na, the person on the phone.

I switched the phone to speakerphone and put it forward.

There was no one passing by, but I controlled the sound with the tradition of Kinnara just in case.

Soon, Seo In-na’s answer continued.

“There will be no punishment if it is an act of coercion.”

“That is natural. But, what about knowing things like magic?”

“As for the knowledge of demons… Of course, it’s up to you, but it’s probably best to go to the training center, right?”

At the word training center, Kwon Tae-soo’s eyebrows went up.

“A training center? Are you going to make that young thing an exorcist?”

“Of course, after I graduate from school.”

“There are so many good things in the world. Why do you make me do such a rough thing?”

“But that kid, according to Inspector Kang, he seems to have already opened his eyes.”

Kwon Tae-soo looked at me as if that was real.

I nodded my head in the affirmative.

“Then it might be best to become an exorcist altogether. If you have an ambiguous spiritual power that you can’t even protect yourself, something like this time could happen again.”

“Huh… ”

Kwon Tae-soo clicked his tongue at those words.

As Seo In-na said, even if the Serene Company were to be destroyed, there was no way to know when the same guys would appear again.

So Kwon Tae-soo nodded slowly.

“Okay. then… What should I do with those damn bastards?”

“I have to suppress it.”

“Repressive?”

As if he didn’t like that word, Kwon Tae-soo’s forehead twitched.

Seo In-na called me right away, as if she were seeing it in person.

“Inspector Kang?”

“yes.”

“It’s a story that you shouldn’t kill. Got it?”

Then she spoke as if driving nails.

At this, Kwon Tae-soo’s face hardened coldly, but Seo In-na’s continued words subtly changed its direction.

“And the incident. According to Inspector Kang’s investigation, the importance of the case has risen more than before. Aren’t you intentionally spreading the curse spell itself inside the company? This is an act that breaks the principle of concealment of the devil. It’s something you just can’t let go of.”

It was.

According to Yeon Ji-woo, there are more than 10 people in the company who perform curse rituals.

There is no way that all of those people accidentally knew the curse spell.

The company must have intentionally taught them the magic and made them practice it.

However, it is a serious crime to teach the general public.

Seo In-na was pointing that out.

“Besides, it’s not just the person who was cursed, but the case like the student’s grandmother should also be seen as a victim of the incident. In other words, the number of deaths related to the incident has increased significantly. So we should focus on handling the case quickly.”

“I guess so.”

The words were long, but the conclusion was clear.

The matter of the case is heavy but urgent.

For that reason, he said that he would turn a blind eye to a somewhat drastic act of suppression.

In one word, just let it live.

Understanding the meaning, Kwon Tae-soo’s face widened slightly.

However, Seo In-na’s words did not end there.

“And about that boss. It may have succeeded in opening the eye with a high probability.”

“Because of the karma?”

“yes. Although indirectly, not only the karma of the person who was killed, but also the karma of the person who died as a result of the reaction would have gone back to him if he had been forced to perform the curse ritual. And if the guy who succeeded in opening his eyes like that committed a crime using the power of the devil… ”

“That must be Mine.”

As Seo In-na said, the criterion for determining whether a person is a demon or not is when a person who has opened his eyes commits a crime using demons.

Even if that boss is someone who knows nothing about the exorcism industry.

That bastard was meeting the conditions of Mine without even realizing it.

“yes. So, grandpa, don’t go wild too.”

“Hum… Whatever I did.”

Kwon Tae-soo didn’t look very satisfied, but his expression was much better than before.

I looked at him and opened my mouth.

“I know what you mean.”

“okay. However, it takes the form of a company. There must be a lot of innocent people to just openly attack.

It was.

Among the more than 300 employees of Serene Company.

There might be people who don’t know anything about demons or curses and just deal with company affairs.

“Well, I’ll leave that up to the judgment of the field. Inspector Kang will take care of it.”

From nob le mt l. com

Judgment on the spot.

Regarding the most difficult issue, Seo In-na ended the call with infinite trust in me.

“What are you going to do now?”

Kwon Tae-soo asked.

In response, I looked at the police car and opened my mouth.

There was still a person in there who would be of great help in the judgment of the scene.

“We should talk more.”

and after a while

I told Yeon Ji-woo that I would subdue the Serene Company.

Then she looked at me with strange eyes.

“Are you two, Uncle and Grandpa?”

“huh. we’re a bit old Didn’t you see it before?”

“… I wouldn’t be able to do that.”

“That’s okay. When do you think it would be better to attack?”

Yeon Ji-woo hesitated for a moment at my words, then opened his mouth.

“It’s night. past 10 o’clock.”

“At night?”

“At that time, most of the regular employees leave, and only the real gangsters remain. And while they are in control, they do a curse ritual.”

“You mean the curse ritual at night?”

“yes. I hear better at night. More dangerous.”

I nodded.

As expected, even within the company, the curse ceremony seemed to be kept secret.

Then I have to wait until 10pm.

While I was thinking about that, Yeon Ji-woo spoke up again.

“But are you really going? Even at that time, there will be 100 people left.”

“100 people? Quite a lot. How many ambulances do I need to call?”

“What kind of ambulance is an ambulance? Ask them to make a coffin.”

When Kwon Tae-soo spat out his words, Yeon Ji-woo made an absurd face.

Well, it must be absurd to say that only 2 people run into over 100 gangsters.

Maybe that’s why she opened her mouth with a serious expression.

“What about Uncle and Grandpa? Aren’t you a real shaman?”

“Because it isn’t.”

“Then what is it?”

“It’s an exorcist cop.”

“Exorcism… ?”

I gave her an explanation of the exorcist.

It’s something you’ll naturally find out when a training center proposal comes anyway.

And Yeon Ji-woo, who heard the explanation, could not hide his astonishment.

“Really? Is there really such a thing?”

At Yeon Ji-woo’s question, I looked at Kwon Tae-soo.

If it was his magic trick, it would be more persuasive than words.

Kwon Tae-soo then showed her the card magic he had once shown me.

Then Yeon Ji-woo tilted his head and said.

“… It is magic.”

“Does this look like that too?”

“uh? uh… ?”

Before anyone knew it, there was another Kwon Tae-soo next to Yeon Ji-woo, who was sitting in the back seat.

The alter ego of Kwon Tae-soo handed Yeon Ji-woo the chocolate he bought at the convenience store earlier.

Yeon Ji-woo looked at the two Kwon Tae-su, each holding a chocolate and a card, with her eyes wide open.

“what is this. How did you do it?”

“It’s a trick.”

“and… Even a shaman can’t do this. If I become an exorcist, will I learn this too?”

“That’s something you don’t know.”

When Yeon Ji-woo accepted the chocolate, Kwon Tae-soo’s alter ego disappeared on the spot.

She stared at the chocolate and then nodded.

“Then I want to become an exorcist.”

“why?”

Everyone had already explained how dangerous an exorcist was.

However, Yeon Ji-woo continued to speak calmly.

“Then I can protect my mother.”

“… … ”

“And me too… You don’t have to die like my grandmother.”

I nodded.

In fact, it was quite predictable that Yeon Ji-woo would aspire to become an exorcist from the beginning.

I went through this because I lacked the strength I had.

Rather than taking a comfortable and safe path, I will choose to become stronger even if it is dangerous.

“Yeah, that’s it, do as you please.”

Now that I had all the information I needed, I thought the story about Yeon Ji-woo was over.

However, Yeon Ji-woo immediately made a stern request.

“Then take me too.”

“what?”

“It’s time to wipe out those bastards. Take me too.”

“why?”

“I miss you. They are ruined.”

“… … ”

Not because it’s dangerous.

I could have repulsed him with those words, but I didn’t bother.

Yeon Ji-woo was a party to the case, and he deserved it.

And in fact, it wasn’t even dangerous at all.

Even gangsters with more than 100 members are ordinary people after all.

Even if it’s just Kwon Tae-soo, I can just chew popcorn next to Yeon Ji-woo.

However, Yeon Ji-wu added a plausible excuse, perhaps thinking that I would reject it.

“And who the real bad guy is, you and your grandfather don’t know. What if there are still employees who work late into the night? But i know I don’t know the faces of the general staff, but I remember all the gangsters who harassed me and my grandmother.”

“That too.”

Kwon Tae-soo, who was next to him, chimed in.

After all, that was the surest way to weed out the innocent general staff.

So I accepted Yeon Ji-woo’s request.

Then a smile appeared on her face.

* * *

And it was night.

The sun had already set long ago at 11 p.m.

Me, Kwon Tae-soo, and Yeon Ji-woo stopped in front of a building in downtown Seosan.

It was a large 7-story building used by the Serene Company.

“Here.”

At Yeon Ji-woo’s words, Kwon Tae-soo took the lead.

As I approached the entrance, the eyes of the two hunks guarding the entrance turned this way.

“What are these?”

“huh? Hey, that shaman that ran away during the day-”

The hunks exchanged words.

However, Kwon Tae-soo didn’t care and waited for Yeon Ji-woo’s words.

“They are both bastards.”

As soon as those words were finished, Kwon Tae-soo was holding an iron pipe before he knew it.

Is that a trick too?

And the iron pipe made with the swordsmanship flew straight toward the gatekeepers.

The sound of a bloody wind that sneezes.

“Uh oh oh oh!”

In the blink of an eye, one of the gatekeeper’s knees bent the other way and collapsed.

An accurate blow aimed at the knee.

The power contained there was so strong that broken bones pierced through the flesh.

And the next guy had his elbow bent the other way.

In an instant, two men become assholes and roll on the floor.

The two passed out without even moaning from the terrible pain.

“I am alive.”

Kwon Tae-soo added, “Let’s aim for the two just in case.

what… He lived according to his words.

I deliberately targeted the joints of my arms and legs and smashed them whole.

Only then will the aftereffects remain for the rest of my life, and the area that was hit will not be able to move properly.

Since I was alive, I had nothing to say.

“But don’t you use magic tricks?”

“Didn’t you write it?”

He waved an iron pipe summoned by Taoism.

“I know these guys well. It’s a waste of magic for these guys. Did I mention how I finished off the bastards who used to treat me?”

It was the story of when Kwon Tae-soo saved the girl he had reaped.

At that time, Kwon Tae-soo would not have been able to use Taoism.

Nevertheless, he destroyed the entire criminal organization and saved the girl he wanted to protect.

Like that, Kwon Tae-soo slung an iron pipe over his shoulder and opened the door of the building.

“Now you will see for yourself.”

We entered the building.

In the meantime, dozens of gangsters had gathered in the wide lobby.

One of them, who looked like a captain, stepped forward.

“Where are these bastards all of a sudden coming from?”

He looked back at us and said.

I was even wearing a police uniform, but Kwon Tae-soo’s stern appearance with a metal pipe seemed to have no idea that we were real police.

Then, his gaze soon fell on Yeon Ji-woo, who was next to me.

“uh? Our Jiwoo, are you back?”

The guy said with a mean laugh.

However, Yeon Ji-woo frowned, but did not react.

Instead, she checked every aspect of the people gathered in the lobby.

Then I found a woman in the corner of the lobby and screamed.

“sister!”

“uh… uh?”

“My sister is out.”

Yeon Ji-woo pointed to a woman in her early 30s.

She put on a startled expression, then, sensing an unusual atmosphere, trotted past us.

“Thank you… ”

Yeon Ji-woo nodded at the words of an office worker who seemed to have nothing special.

For some reason, Yeon Ji-woo had a strange smile on his lips.

“Why are you laughing?”

“I wanted to try this line once.”

Also, is a child a child?

It was a random word.

“Other than that, who is that woman?”

“This is the older sister who cooked for me at night. nice.”

“Ah, the restaurant lady.”

Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with being a restaurant lady.

I nodded, and Yeon Ji-woo continued.

“But the rest are all bastards.”

“Come, and Inspector Kang, don’t step out. I will take care of it.”

If so, that’s fine with me.

I stood next to Yeon Ji-woo.

Then the thug ahead of us teased.

“Has this inspiration gone senile? You know what, you know-”

But before he could finish his words, his jaw went round after being hit by an iron pipe.

A blow that was swung at an invisible speed.

The giant collapsed and made a dull noise.

“Kill!”

Starting with this, dozens of gangsters attacked Kwon Tae-soo.

They weren’t bare-handed either.

There was even a sashimi-like knife to the point where it could be said to be a gangster itself, as well as a wooden bar with nails.

However, they never touched Kwon Tae-soo’s body.

“Oops!”

“Ouch!”

“Aagh!”

The screams of the once strong men continued.

In an instant, double-digit thugs collapsed and groaned in pain.

The injury was serious even to pretend.

The eyeballs on the face are broken, the Achilles tendon is ripped out, and the heart is broken and something flows out.

Each of Kwon Tae-soo’s iron pipes was fatal.

Strikes that do not simply incapacitate the opponent, but incapacitate the opponent’s life.

Because of that, I wondered if it was a bit cruel from a high school girl’s point of view.

“… … ”

Yeon Ji-woo looked at it and smiled rather cheerfully.

Only if you like… It will be fine.

Eventually, the rest of the gangsters also fell one by one, and there were no more enemies standing in the lobby.

Kwon Tae-soo, who trampled on the future of the thugs, asked calmly as he brushed off the blood on his pipe.

“Where is that boss?”

“It’s on the top floor.”

Kwon Tae-soo nodded.

And we climbed the stairs to the upper floor.
