chapter 115
15 : What is the police in this world?
The day I woke up in the hospital. I told Yunari and the goblin that there is something I would like them to prepare to defeat Sai.
To him, they said they would prepare anything without saying anything, but that wasn’t enough for this case.
Saira needs their help, no matter what the circumstances, to catch the monster.
Because there are many things to prepare to make the timing exactly what I want.
I continued by asking Yunari to draw some blood.
“Obviously, even if we all rushed in, we couldn’t win. It will probably be robbed in no time. Yunari, even if your blood touches Sai, no matter how well you fight the goblin. I mean. You know all about that, right?”
“… … .”
“But fortunately, there is an incapacitating drug that will work for Sai as well. If I had this, I might be able to stop that bitch.”
“But the question is, how do you fit this in? To be honest, isn’t it too much for New Hope to shove this into people who aren’t vigilant?”
right? When asked, everyone nodded without saying anything. Originally, only Yunari knew that I had this incapacitating drug.
The class president was vaguely aware that I was carrying this syringe around as if it were my life. The goblin didn’t ask me any additional questions about what my brother had told me.
Instead, they asked with their eyes if there was a way since I said this far.
I said to him, thinking that it was a very absurd way to think about it.
“So I have to show that there is no choice but to show a gap. Since she is interested in me in many ways, she would be surprised if I put an amount of psychic stimulant into my body that would make me mutate in front of my eyes.”
“… … Is this man drunk on drugs? Didn’t it just go wrong because you got hit in the head and really messed up? You want to become a mutant?”
“Are you crazy? You are preparing a fake.”
“ah.”
Afterwards, I made a plan under the assumption that Sai would kidnap Mina on purpose, and considering her personality, she would appear in front of me once again.
I went to fight the real Sai and explained what the goblin and Yunari would like to do while fighting Sai no matter how the incident happens.
To be honest, I thought it was an absurd operation.
The goblin drags time with magic, uses a blood pack containing Yunari’s blood to somehow create a gap, and deliberately tries to insert an incomplete neutralizing drug into it.
Whether successful or not, this is to give Sai the idea that we failed to use a disabling drug on Sai.
The real thing is to ask someone who is in a situation where I surprise the relationship by injecting fake stimulants.
To be honest, even from my point of view, it was nothing to say that it was a plan. It’s fucked up or successful or a gamble.
But there was no other way.
Sai is incredibly strong and overwhelming. Even the forces are strong.
We have no help from the police to deal with such a relationship. There are only two people who can actually fight, so we have no other way than this suicide special attack.
She may even know that I have incapacitating drugs. This was the biggest problem.
If you think about it with common sense, no matter how in-between, it seems impossible to think of the absurdity of receiving a finished product from the future, but it is possible if it is in-between.
So, a plan to take advantage of a gap, to induce one’s carelessness, to use everything, to aim for a gap, to aim for a one-time opportunity.
And, of course, the feelings between them are also included in what they use for that gap.
“- great. I hate to say it, but let’s say this plan that doesn’t even sound like a plan works. But what about next time? Just because she stops, I don’t think she’ll be caught just like that.”
“Regardless of her powers gone, that woman would have prepared a bomb that would blow up Seoul or supervillains, ready to blow up the National Assembly or kill the president.”
That was definitely right. This is purely to stop Sai in the face of the situation and do something about it, not a way to stop the ruse she may be plotting.
But what can I do? this is our best
The people here are not superheroes who will save the world.
A researcher who has a bad personality and is torn apart every day, and a fool who committed a crime but still admits it and wants to do good. And only one man in his mid-30s.
We cannot solve everything from beginning to end like Mina, a superhero in movies and cartoons.
“What can I do? They say that if a pike bird follows a stork, its legs will be torn. Baepsae should do what he can to be a baepsae. Then, even if I die, I will say that I have done all I can and die.”
In my words, Yunari said, ‘I don’t want to die… … He smiled wryly as he said, but it sounded more like a joke to lighten the mood rather than a grumble.
I also exchanged contact information while chatting with him accordingly. In the meantime- the goblin’s sister woke up.
The goblin’s little sister, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up and blinked her characteristic green eyes before bursting into tears.
We, who were in the room, panicked and tried to comfort the child, asking if he had a nightmare, but the child only cried sadly.
My sister suddenly rushed at me and said something in a low voice that I couldn’t hear properly, with tears and runny nose typical of children.
Whatever he said, of course I couldn’t understand.
*****
“- You’re doing too much. You even use love.”
“You’re not doing too much.”
The plan worked. Everyone didn’t die in a mess, but it wouldn’t be strange if they died right away.
Yunari fell on the floor and made a sound that seemed to catch her breath. The goblin is unable to move, breathing weakly as if it has passed out.
Even Mina managed to escape thanks to my gun hitting the part where the wire and the stone were tied, but in the process, the wire dug deeper and she was bleeding dangerously.
If you don’t take action right away, there are three people who are dangerous.
I was thinking about who to do and what to do. I decided to take out the handcuffs and arrest Sai.
Sai lay face down on the stone floor gasping for breath as if he had really lost his strength.
The scariest thing about this woman is her brain rather than her ability. Even though I lost my power, my head was spinning, so the first thing to do was to stop doing strange things.
I grabbed the handcuffs and approached Sai. A moment to handcuff her wrists. Sai said with a smile.
“congratulations. Vice-captain. But what can I do? As long as I’ve lost my powers like this – the mutants are unstoppable. The mutations I created this time will move according to the results of people’s votes.”
“If people chose to kill the hero lady, they would come running here. It can’t be, but… … If they chose to die, they would destroy Seoul itself.”
“What choices did people make? What are the other cops doing now? I can’t stop it. nobody.”
“- ah. Don’t worry. There is a way. If you kill me here and now, everything will stop. like that… … I made it.”
Saying that, Sai looked at the pistol in my hand. A pistol that still has one bullet left.
Sai said with her eyes that this was a plain truth without lies or deceit.
I looked into those eyes and felt suffocated, thinking about what to do.
Enraged by Sai’s words, Mina tried to stand up, but she fell to the floor with blood gushing out of her wounds.
This goddamn bitch has been making really nasty things up until the very end.
Honestly, I also think people would have made the choice to kill Mina. If that happens, it means that more than 100 mutants will come running here. Then we are annihilated.
Sai was already staring at the muzzle of my gun with a devilish grin, as if he already knew what I was going to do. Let me gnashing my teeth and point the gun at her. Sai said with a small laugh.
“If the detective doesn’t accept my love, I’d rather be killed by the detective. it’s better that way I think I’ll be really happy when that happens… … Hi-Hi… … .”
“Crazy bitch.”
have to pull It should be. I approached her nose and pointed the gun between her forehead so that the last remaining bullet would never miss.
Sai was looking at my face with a ecstatic smile. As if he wants to keep my face in his eyes until the end.
Looking at that face made me want to pull the trigger right away. As a police officer, I didn’t have to think about whether this was right or not.
It was a situation where I had to take off my clothes anyway, and I had to kill her in order to live here right now, no matter what happened in the future.
The cost of saving the lives of those who followed me and those young people would not be cheap if it was blood on my hands.
Feeling cold sweat dripping from the bridge of my nose, I held my breath as I put my strength into my fingers—
ㅡ Beep riri!!
I wanted to give you strength. But before that, the phone suddenly started ringing.
Who the hell is going to contact you in this situation? I took out my phone with trembling hands and looked at it. The person who contacted me was the class president.
” [ Hey asshole. Put down the gun, bitch. You proudly hold a gun and set it up, bastard. Did you go crazy because you wanted to fuck me? ]”
“… … What kind of bullshit is this bald man talking about now… … .”
When I answered the phone, I heard the class president’s voice.
At the familiar voice, I felt my breathing, which had been blocked slightly, open. But that’s for a while.
I thought I should shoot even more if this situation was being broadcast live, so I hung up the phone and tried to pull the trigger. The class president hurriedly stopped me and said,
“[The kid is fucking hot. Hey, do you want to see how that vote goes and shoot? Didn’t I tell you from a really long time ago? Look ahead and run. Then you really go hooked. ]”
“… … vote?”
what do you need to see Of course, he would be on the side of killing Mina. While I was thinking about that, I checked the voting page that Sai hacked into the Internet and uploaded.
To be honest, a scene that I couldn’t believe even after seeing it with my own eyes caught my eye.
Mina’s life and her own life. There are currently only 10 minutes left until fate is decided in front of this evil choice.
But now when i checked. The number of people who participated in this vote, which was held on the stage of a large city called Seoul, was a little over 100 at the most.
Even the voting ratio was exactly tied at 5:5.
I couldn’t figure out what to make of this.
I’d rather be impressed if people didn’t vote at all or forcibly made a tie, as if it were in a movie somewhere.
But look at these half-assed and strange figures. People couldn’t choose, and even if they did, the ratio of 5:5 eventually came out.
What do we really need to understand?
honestly isn’t it? Half of 100 people chose Mina to die? Half out of 100 chose to die instead of a girl?
I don’t know. I can not know. But for some reason, it was a laugh out loud. Maybe it’s because it feels like it’s a human disgrace to be so messed up.
“[First of all, there are 10 minutes left, but the number is about that. What do you say when there is a tie? Still, you don’t know what that bitch will do by changing her words, so grab them and throw them at each other. The police and ambulance will be on their way, so treat them. Even if something goes wrong, we are also moving just in case, so don’t worry. ]”
“… … if?”
“[ ok. if. Anyway, the police are doing what they are supposed to do. ]”
People were shouting from behind the class president. Something like preparing a weapon or building a barricade to keep people from coming over.
“[ Cub. What are you saying to a kid younger than me? Even if you search soon, you are the police of this country, so you have to do what you have to do. If it’s a rabbit here, you can’t live because you’re embarrassed. ]”
That brief word from the class president reminded me of what I said earlier at the hospital. I let out a big laugh and hung up the call.
okay. Well, it’s like this, but it’s not cool for me to use a gun.
I looked down. Sai had a hard face as if he had heard the conversation. Instead of a gun, I took out the handcuffs again and put them on her wrists.
“Siner is currently under arrest for serial murder and aiding and abetting murder, terrorism, distribution and production of illegal drugs and a bunch of fucking charges. You can hire an attorney.
You have the opportunity to make excuses, you can refuse to testify adversely, and you can apply for a trial against arrest… … Whew. It’s hard to say all of this.”
“Are you not going to kill me?”
“Hey. Take off your clothes, you bastard, if you kill a criminal who the police subdued at will. Didn’t you learn anything like that from me?”
“… … You stopped being a cop.”
“It hasn’t been processed yet. Legally, you’re a cop. Not yet.”
I looked between them and laughed wryly. She smiled bitterly at my words. He said with tears in his eyes.
“… … Really, nothing goes the way you think. Congratulations. Vice-captain. It’s your victory.”
Silver handcuffs on Sai’s wrists. I stood up between the body as it was. Mina was also supported and tried to move to get out of this fucking hill.
I can hear ambulances and police cars in the distance, I can’t believe it, but I’m just about to rejoice that we really won Sai-
good luck.
A sound too ominous to be considered an ordinary stone sound came from underfoot. And then to the blatant noise.
What flashed through my mind at that moment was the words that I did not know when the ground would collapse due to the weakening of the ground after the great earthquake.
The moment I felt the ominous shaking of the floor, I pushed Sai and Mina forward.
At the same time, my body collapsed backwards. As I hurriedly turned my gaze, behind me, I saw something gleaming like a fang of a beast in the gap between the construction site and the concrete mass.
And Bonnie said that if the goblin sister’s ability heals the wound, the wound will return to its original state.
However, the goblin sister said that it could come as a bigger wound.
The words I heard before come to mind. I intuitively realized that my time was up.
“Boo, Vice-Captain!!!!”
“Detective… … !!!”
Sai and Mina are shocked and reach out to me. Mina is so scarred that she can’t even point her body properly, and Sai is hit with incapacitating drugs and is even handcuffed.
no one can save me
If you land in a place like that, no matter how lucky you are, you will end up like minced meat. Of course, at this timing, the ground collapsed, and the cracks were frightening.
Are injuries that cause permanent disabling of arms and legs more likely to come back and take lives?
No, it seems a little different. The existence of ‘Mina’ comes to mind in this situation and my head spins quickly.
I died in the future that ‘Mina’ said, but ‘Mina’ said that she came back to the past and saved me by using the ability of her goblin sister to save me.
Doesn’t that mean it’s fate that I die like this?
The fact that I didn’t want to think about it for various reasons until now is laughing at me right in front of my nose.
Yes, this is how my second life ends.
It was more absurd than unfair, but my body fell helplessly with gravity.
Mina and Sai screamed and reached out to me, but of course they didn’t reach. I just closed my eyes and waited for the pain to come, but-
“It’s not too late.”
There was no pain. bang! Along with the sound, an invisible dust cloud rose, and the warmth of a person enveloped my body.
familiar voice. In the midst of the dizzy vision, I gave strength to my eyes and looked ahead.
As time passed, the sun that had risen high was slowly sinking into the sunset, and shadows were falling in this pit-like place.
But in the meantime, what I saw was a bright smile. A beautiful woman with her long hair tied in a ponytail in an airplane jumper that has lost its color and has become half white.
‘Mina’, whom I thought I would never see again, smiled with a scarred face as she hugged me with a blurry look like a dream.
“hehehe, that kid said you can never change the past. Because I thought If you were a detective, you would make it a completely different world from the place I was the only one. If you’re the one I love, I’m sure you’ll do it.”
“And if it’s a completely different world, if it’s not the world I used to know, after all, it’s not going to change the past, right?”
‘Mina’, who said that, laughed like a child, shedding tears and runny nose at the subject that was full of dust and scars.
A face full of relief. And with a satisfied face, ‘Mina’ wiped her face once and said.
“Then the only thing left to do is to save people, right? Whether it’s fate or whatever, it’s because I’m the best hero in my own way. Destiny can be easily defeated.”
I definitely won with this one! Mina carefully dropped me off at a safe place. Mina disappeared as if swallowed by the shadow of the sunset.
She didn’t show up after giving a word or throwing rice cakes in advance like in a novel or movie. It just appeared out of nowhere.
But like the first time I saw you, I was saved by ‘Mina’. Looking at the scars on her arms and legs, I wished she was happy in another world.
I informed the two who were calling me that I was okay and that I needed to call the 119 firefighters as well.
It’s really over now. as long as I’m alive I slowly laid my back on the floor watching the sunset.
