I Became a Cop in the Superhero Genre

04 : You can’t quit being a cop in this world

Today was a strangely cold day, starting from daytime. I heard sentimental feelings for a short time, wondering if autumn is going to disappear after all, after talking about global warming.

Maybe it’s because the days have gotten colder, and the criminals are a little less rampant, so the sentimental feelings have flown far away. Thinking long live winter, I got out of the book and slowly drank a cup of coffee.

Today is the day exactly two months have passed since the hostage incident of the mayor of Seoul, and during these two months, there were so many incidents that it made me dizzy.

Kidnapping, fraud, and assault are commonplace. After awakening their psychic powers, half of them go on a rampage saying that their intelligence is the best, get beaten up by New Hope, and end up in a detention center.

Half of the guys who challenged me saying they wouldn’t lose if we fought again and then got smashed. As time went on, the pitiful gags continued.

Still, I could pass it off as my karma for choosing a job as a police officer, but the other half is the case.

As a percentage, it’s about 25%. Things happened that had never happened before. What’s the matter? That is, people who directly asked me to investigate appeared.

I am not talking about normal procedures like reporting to the police and being in charge of the case. Literally, people come to me and ask ‘directly’.

Do you know the absurd feeling when, on the road, a stranger suddenly appears and kneels down to ask for help?

When working as a police officer, it is normal to run to people who cry out for help, and when digging into a case, there are many cases where the true culprit is found and more innocent victims are found.

But what the hell is the case when they come to me asking me to relieve my injustice by pinching me?

Of course there was an incident to such people, but I tried to send them back to report them officially, or if it was a serious case, I tried to hand over the case to a police officer I knew-

Is it because of this crazy world view, or is it someone’s trick? —-Of course it must be a ruse, damn it.

I can’t stop sighing. All the people who came to me were people who, in addition to being involved with supernatural powers, went through unfair things because they didn’t work because the paycheck thief cops didn’t work because they were annoying.

Crying because I or no one will listen to you, and there is a victim

First of all, I officially filed the case, and since the case was handed down to me, I started an investigation and dealt with it.

Even when the incident broke out, the suspect saw me and asked me if I could listen to him and surrendered meekly!

I asked the people who asked for help what was the cause of this bizarre event, and they came because of the damn video that I was flooding the market with.

The damn video has been circulating on the Internet for quite some time, and is currently spreading in progress with titles such as ‘video of a cider overthrowing a market by a detective’.

I don’t know how I did it on YouTube or social media, but I even found out that I was the one who solved the murder case of the son of a member of the National Assembly, which was once talked about on the Internet.

After finding out how to solve the cases of people who came to me for help, they are talking about me as the only integrity cop you can’t find in this country.

You don’t know what you’re talking about? honestly me too

“Fuck- no hard life.”

It seems that he suffers like this because he has curse words in his mouth. Cut down on swearing. After this hardship time passes, another big incident will pass.

I definitely thought so–that’s been 2 months. I don’t know what Sai wants from me, but isn’t this a bit too much?

I made up my mind to stop thinking about the pain and shoot the goblin when I found it. Right now, I enjoyed the subtle coffee scent and smiled.

“Is the vice-captain here?”

“Big.”

shit. passed through the nose

A case was taken because he suddenly called me. The heat and aroma of coffee tortures my bronchial tubes.

As I was coughing in pain, Sai, the owner of the voice, came up to me before I knew it and said something like ‘You’re well today’ and handed me a handkerchief.

“What would you do if you stayed here and people recognized you and asked for help?”

“I’m going to tell the police to report it and run away.”

“Ugh, if the most famous person these days were caught saying that, there would be an uproar, would you mind? If I say a word, the internet goes crazy again~”

While speaking in a light and playful tone. But it hurts my ears to see if there is another hidden meaning in it.

I wiped the coffee dripping down my nose, avoiding the gaze between them as they slammed me down.

These years, no, are all the causes of my anxiety, worry, fatigue, and overwork.

what the hell is this guy What do you want? Having doubts, I went around as an assistant shooter and a shooter for two months and kept an eye on each other.

As a result, I found out one thing. That is, this cross-dressing woman is an asshole who doesn’t know what the hell she wants.

He should do a good job once. No, not to the extent that he is good at it, but if there is one more person like him, he is so good at his work that it makes you feel like you have no wish.

To the point where I can say that the above incidents were solved not because I was good at it, but because Sai was my assistant shooter.

If there’s one problem here, it’s that such a competent black man with a worldview definitely had a purpose and dragged me into the special investigation team, but I don’t know what it is.

He didn’t know what he was trying to do in the first place, but he could ask why he was doing that. Listen carefully.

There’s a really dangerous, frighteningly smart guy. If he said he was ignoring me and trying to use me, I would be able to dismiss it as something like that.

But what if that dangerous guy pretends to be friendly with you and drives your performance? FYI, I got a sleep disorder because I was scared.

I really don’t understand. If you ask me to go get the results because you did well, ‘I didn’t do anything. It was all done by the vice-captain, right?’

Even in the previous case of Ha Tae-sik, when the news broke that I had solved the case, the horrified laugh flickers in front of my eyes every day.

Really why? If he treats me like a limb and tries to rise up, it is understandable that he put me on the investigation team. I’m not that special, so it must be easy to deal with.

But all of a sudden, he actually solved almost all the cases that happened for two months, and he gave me all the results? You even keep spreading it all over the internet?

Are you trying to make me famous and get me stabbed to death by a criminal who holds a grudge against me? But there’s no need for a girl you’re close with to borrow someone else’s hand, right?

Even if you don’t know what he’s thinking, just pretend you don’t know, or in the worst case,

As I said before, I was going to gather evidence of the crime and ask for help from New Hope, but seeing him do this, I’m afraid to do anything.

Could it be that you know everything about me and are trying to make fun of me? I even think about it. Or are you interested in me

—-I thought of it as a joke, but the pain ran through my whole body as if poison had gone into my blood.

Even if it’s a joke, there are things you shouldn’t think about. As I recited new teachings, Sai smiled softly at me.

“Slowly come back. You have to play the polka dots in moderation. If you stay here for a long time, the captain will get angry again.”

“Tell me to be angry. that bald head.”

“Ugh. If the shooter is such a poor shooter, only the sub shooter suffers. You know that the vice-captain has a really bad personality, right?”

… … what do you mean The words that I don’t want to hear from the guy who turns the world into this shit for fun are about to come out, revealing a ferocious temper, but I somehow manage to hold it back by curling my lips inward.

When describing the character of Sai in the novel, it was described as a kind and nice person on the outside, but on the inside, it was described as an unpredictable monster filled with thorough calculations and malice.

It would be more comfortable if he revealed his true identity and said, ‘You, if you don’t want to die, become my chess piece.’

I checked the time while thinking about it. 3:21 p.m. It was definitely late, as I had slipped out on the excuse of going to lunch.

There are still reports and documents to be finished, and this week’s duty starts the day after tomorrow, so I think I can go home and rest tonight.

then you should go in I took a sip of slightly cooled coffee and left the cafe. As I trudged back to the parked car, I thought of trying to figure out what courage was.

When I said what I wanted, wouldn’t he do something in a joking way? It was a messy idea to do. You can just dismiss it as a joke, and it’s common for the shooter to tell the assistant shooter that he did a good job.

“It was a lot of hard work. So, what do you want me to do for you? Can I buy you some rice?”

“Uh- is the rice okay? To put it bluntly- I hope the vice-captain continues to show great performance in this investigation team. I am learning so much.”

“It was a lot of hard work. So, what do you want me to do for you? Can I buy you some rice?”

“Uh, together in the investigation team-”

“It was a lot of hard work. So, what do you want me to do for you? Can I buy you some rice?”

“Are you not listening to me?”

The world’s worst supervillain or whatever, that’s not okay. I said firmly.

****

it’s work After returning home, I lay down in my room, leaving only my socks and coat off.

The desire to roll around with my eyes closed on the mattress rose from head to toe, but I suppressed that desire and took out the notebook I had hidden in the corner of the room.

I thought it was pretty ugly crawling to the corner of the room, but who cares if it’s my room.

I was irrationally lazy and took out the notebook I had hidden in the crack in the wallpaper in my room, then checked the notebook.

On the outside, it was a common police notebook, but what was written inside was the contents of this world, Secret Hero Rise, not the criminal history or victim statements.

The notebook, in which I wrote down everything I remembered, from the prologue to the biggest events, was using almost 5 pages to write only the development of the novel.

The reason I wrote this is simple. Since the Seoul mayor’s hostage incident, the development of this world has been different from what I remember, and I felt that these minor differences would lead to bigger and bigger changes.

Since I was caught between the biggest black man and New Hope Mina even if I didn’t want to, I thought I needed to use anything to prepare for survival, so I wrote down everything I knew in my notebook.

At first, I simply wrote it down because I was anxious, but I wonder if the dementia is moderate or not because of the knowledge of the original that fades over time.

I was very proud of the past me who had written down like this—- but looking back, the contents written in this notebook were terrible.

In the original development of the novel, if we were to list only the big events, excluding the daily parts of the main character and other trivial things, it would be like this.

As for the events that take place after the hostage of the mayor of Seoul, a pseudo-religious group and a civic group gather to kidnap and kill a small number of innocent awakened psychic powers.

Afterwards, as a reaction to the oppression of psychics, the people who came up with the name ‘chosen ones’ gathered the psychics who were persecuted by talking about the human rights of the awakened psychics.

Soon, the chosen ones change from a human rights group into a terrorist group that intends to bring judgment on those who treated them as monsters.

Among them, it is known that the psychic awakening drug, which was only rumored in the back world, actually exists, and New Hope continues the investigation into the person who made the drug-

This is the long-awaited event. It is a ‘great chaos’ incident in which Sai collapses the prison in which the supervillain is confined and reveals his identity to the world.

With the incidents I remember like this, I want to quit the police all the more. Is it a messy true story?

I don’t know what Sai is using me to plot, but if he’s aiming for something, he must be trying to do something to me between these big events, right?

If so, I’ll try too. These cases are the ones who try to get away from the special investigation team but dismiss them as if they didn’t even have a letter of resignation. What should I do?

It’s something I really hate to think about because I’m a guy who can beat the mayor and do nothing but fan work, but I’m afraid that even if I kill a citizen passing by, he’ll be reinstated without incident.

… … oh i don’t know I hid the notebook again in the crack in the concrete wall and rolled on the floor. And I thought.

Is it a sin to do nothing when you know that there will be chaos and countless victims in society? It’s not a sin I think. But what if it’s a cop?

I have no special powers, no burning sense of justice or power to speak of. Even if I pretend to be crazy and shoot Sai, she’ll laugh at me.

ㅡWell, as expected, no matter how much I think about it, the result is that it would be better to just pretend not to know. Then you should follow

Thinking of that, I lay in a daze and waited for sleep to come. And then, for some reason, the body does not have strength.

Hey, is this a disease? I roll my eyes for a moment. I realized the cause of the sensation I am feeling now.

“- I’m hungry.”

Dinner, I didn’t eat properly. I wondered if there was any ramen left in the house, but realized that there was no water, let alone food.

No, because I bought coffee in the afternoon, I can’t even buy ramen with my wallet. Did you sell bean sprouts at the store below? How much were the bean sprouts these days?

My life, poorer than in my previous life as a college student, was miserable, but feeling miserable doesn’t make my hunger go away.

I moved heavy steps and headed to the supermarket near my house, and after taking only a bag of bean sprouts, I waited in line at the checkout counter, calculating how many days I would have to last with this.

After dinner, the line was quite long as there were many families out to buy something, but I blankly looked at my phone and waited for my turn.

Was it because I was too absent-minded? In an instant, I lost the bag of bean sprouts I was holding in my hand.

Generally, it is not packaged, but put in a black bag, so if it falls, you know that it will be a disaster.

The moment I fell, I missed the only chance I could catch, and I had no choice but to look at the bag of bean sprouts falling in slow motion.

“Oops. Shouldn’t you be holding the bag of bean sprouts well? If you drop it here, it will be a mess.”

The moment I thought so, a white-haired female student with a strange tone appeared from somewhere and grabbed the bag that had fallen and handed it to me.

Where did you appear…? I took a closer look at the girl.

If you look at it roughly, she looks about the same age as Mina. I can’t be sure because I’m so small, but at least it seemed like it wasn’t much more than Mina.

In addition, the female student was wearing a cap hat with natural white hair that did not seem to have been dyed, and was wearing a black training suit with her belly exposed.

He showed me a smile that was full of energy and health unique to his age.

“Oh, thank you.”

I thought as I replied thanking the female student for catching me. Snowflake-like white hair, which cannot be produced by bleaching, is caught in the snow.

Are you a superpower? Or one of the main characters? However, it seems that he is a civilian who has awakened his psychic powers for some reason, seeing as he does not remember anything in particular about his distinctive attire and way of speaking.

As if the people waiting in line with me realized that, it made me feel very bad to look at the female student who helped me as uncomfortable, but

I couldn’t help but sigh because the current perception of psychics is so bad. After I paid for today’s food, I said thank you one more time to the child who helped me and was about to go back.

But the white-haired child follows me. At night when the sun has set, a psychic is chasing you.

It reminds me of the things I was prepared for after becoming famous unintentionally. There are a few things that pass through my head from proxy murder using the juvenile law, but I hope it’s not like that and asked the child.

“- What are you doing?”

“I’m sorry so suddenly. I’ve been chasing you like this because I wanted to ask you one thing, but please let me know. Teacher- I wonder if you are Detective Lee Moon-soo?”

“… … Sleeping in this door? what to do?”

“If you are right, excuse me, but I have a favor to ask of you.”

oh shit is this again

I was relieved that the reason the child talked to me was not the number of bad cases I thought, but I realized that it was repeated several times in two months.

Did this kid come to me because he suffered unfair things because of some bastard, and because some stupid bastard didn’t work?

Although all I can do right here is to officially file the case and investigate if I can, I asked the child to hear the story.

“What do you want to ask for?”

“Thank you for listening. My name is Yumi Shin. I want to seek help from the detective because of an incident that happened a few months ago.”

small child. Shin Yu-mi took off the hat she was wearing on her head. And the exposed face of the girl made me feel deja vu as if I had seen it somewhere. Where did you see it?

Yellow eyes and white hair. You said you couldn’t remember this distinctive appearance?

Rather, this feeling. weird. It’s not like we talked, it’s just like seeing someone who looks alike. But where did you see someone who looked like this kid?

“Do you remember? A few months ago, there was a man who tried to rob a bank at Cheonho Station and failed.”

Yun-sik Kim, the suspect who came to mind at Shin Yu-mi’s words. The guy who broke my head again and made my waist go out, and the guy who should have been quietly cleaned up by Sai.

What did that man do to this child? Currently, he is treated as having escaped and disappeared after the crime, but he is probably buried somewhere cold.

Probably somewhere no one can find it. If you are a victim, you should first think about how you can tell this, but why?

For some reason, my eyes were sending information loudly to my brain that there was a resemblance between the face of Kim Yun-shik, who had attacked me that day, and the child in front of me.

“-Me and the man. Kim Yun-shik is half-brother and sister. After my father passed away, we have no legal relationship at all, but he is still my older brother.”

“uh-“

Although my eyes were right. I felt even more frustrated with that fact. If it’s just missing, I’ll believe it’s alive and chase it.

But what am I supposed to do with a request to find someone who must have already lost his life?

As I chewed my lips, struggling to choose the words to say what to say for this child, what Shin Yumi continued was completely different from what I had imagined.

“My older brother certainly committed a crime, but it was not intentional. Someone gave my brother the ability and made him do something like that.”

“what?”

Did you give it the ability? Maybe you know each other? When I was speechless, the girl continued.

“I was terribly afraid of my brother until he disappeared. He knew that he shouldn’t know. The reason why people with psychic powers are increasing these days is that I knew about the dangerous person who made me like this.”

I reflexively looked around at the words the girl said while twisting her white hair.

There was no one passing by, but a sudden unpleasant feeling of being watched around me began to surround my body.

I panicked and tried to stop the child, but the child quickly took out something and handed it to me. It was a blue USB that Sai had found, which was in Yunshik Kim’s house.

“My brother said that everything was in this USB, that he had failed on the day he disappeared, and that it was over, and then disappeared. And some weird guys are after me.

Detective. please i don’t want anything else please… … Let’s see what’s inside. That, Lee, if this helps the detective, when you have time, please find my brother… … .”

Saying that, the girl asked with a smile of uneasiness and fear that was completely different from the healthy smile she had seen earlier.

I saw that smile and thought about it for a while. laughed No, laughter came out. It was so absurd that it made me laugh out loud.

I couldn’t stand it without laughing at the misfortune of being caught up in such a dangerous reality.

I tried to avoid swearing as much as possible, but the world doesn’t leave me alone. Yes, this kind of life anyway, wouldn’t it be fun to spit it out coolly?

Let’s all search together. Poetry-haircut.
