chapter 5
02 : This is what the police are in this world
The girl’s name is Mina. Last name Mi. my name is it goes on beautifully It is a name given by the girl’s father.
The girl with long black hair and a slim body looks like an insignificant schoolgirl except for her red eyes and pretty face, but in fact the girl had one big secret.
That girl is the current most famous hero, New Hope.
A girl with superhuman strength, such as being able to destroy concrete buildings with her bare hands, running faster than a car, and having skin that doesn’t even get scratched when stabbed with a knife.
He uses his powers to take down supervillains or help people. When people saw such a girl, they called her New Hope, saying that she is a superhero herself that only appears in comics or movies.
To be honest, the girl didn’t like her nickname New Hope, but she calls herself New Hope because it’s appropriately useful to hide her identity behind her nickname.
Well, of course it was embarrassing for a girl to be called by a nickname, but she was able to get used to it easily because her real name was strange enough to be on the same level as the nickname New Hope.
Why did you give me this name? Mina wondered why her father, who had not a bad naming sense, gave her a name like this.
Because of the unique name, it is memorable for nothing, but because of the special powers that the girl had from a young age before acting as a hero, it was not easy to be remembered by people in that way.
When asked why he gave it such a name, Mina’s father answered like this. ‘I thought the meaning of this name would suit you.’
Do you think the name “Move Beautifully” suits you? Mina, who was struggling every day because of the power she never wanted or desired, wondered what kind of joke she was, but-
Looking back now, maybe his name set the direction of his life. Or- maybe it was because the person in front of me helped me to walk this path.
Mina thought about that and took a big bite of the Big Mac. Then he looked at the man in front of him eating a hamburger with a face full of fatigue.
Homicide detective Lee Moon-soo.
Other policemen tried to cover up the case because the man who killed his family had power, because he was the son of a high-ranking person, but only the person in front of him was chased and arrested.
If Lee Mun-soo, like other police officers, was scared of power and ignored the incident that happened to the girl’s family,
Mina recalled the worst day of her life, thinking that she might not have used her powers the way she did now.
ordinary day. clear sky. I slept over at a friend’s house, and when I returned in the morning, I found the familiar house torn apart by a family that seemed distant from the familiar.
Mina couldn’t accept the current reality after discovering that body parts of her beloved family members were scattered all over the house.
The mother who called me normally until last night and said see you tomorrow. The older sister, who did not like the girl playing outside, and the father, who smiled and told her to play well, died.
Indeed, who in the world could simply accept such a reality? If anyone can do that, they’re probably insane.
3 hours for the girl to not accept reality and wait for time to pass. After that time, the police arrived at her house.
Of course, Mina didn’t report it. The girl next door thought it was strange that the girl had been standing in front of the door blankly for three hours.
It was the worst day ever. Faced with the terrible incident, Mina wanted to know who did this.
Mina, who was chasing the criminal in a fit of rage, remembered the man who had been chasing her sister, and as she chased the man and gathered evidence, the evidence of the crime was easily gathered.
At first, Mina brought all the evidence to the police, but the police quietly covered up the fact that the other person was the son of a member of the National Assembly.
why. Why did the person die? Mina knew what it was like to feel a fire burning in her chest that day.
no one listens to themselves I reported it directly to the news once, but even that was ignored.
Mina gave up everything halfway after seeing the trash child who killed her family appear and even laugh at her.
Mina was trying to find the culprit and kill him herself. I’m going crazy because I’m resentful and unfair. The words of the worms about revenge did not even reach my ears.
To put out the flame in my heart, I had to kill that son of a bitch with all my lifelong hidden strength.
She hesitated and was afraid, but she was determined. At that time, the face he saw in the mirror by chance was so terrible that he couldn’t remember what he looked like before the incident.
Clearly, that face was that of a man determined to kill. but-
‘- Look. that son of a bitch. I’ll take responsibility and put you in jail.’
A man who suddenly appeared in front of her after finishing all preparations.
He is a strange person who introduces himself as a policeman and leaves after saying a short word with shining eyes unlike now. But for some reason, Mina saw his eyes and thought of waiting for a while.
I still don’t know why. It could have been that he was afraid of killing people, or it might have been that he wanted to see his burning eyes and believe.
Whatever the reason, it wasn’t long before Mina was rewarded for waiting, and the news broke that the police were trying to cover up a crime committed by a politician’s son, and that the son of a bitch was being arrested.
He came to visit me in a state where he was supposed to lie in bed with a swollen bruise on his face so bad that it was not a big deal, and he said that he had kept his promise and went away.
The news and other social media were noisy about the corruption case, and at the time, Mina had no idea what the hell had happened.
One thing is for sure, he kept his word. Putting that scum bastard in jail.
Anyway, the relationship that started like that has already been almost a year, so we met if we met for quite a long time. I still don’t know exactly who he is. A person who looks lazy but is more sincere than anyone else.
But if one thing is certain, if Mina hadn’t met him, if he hadn’t been in charge of the case. He must have carried out the murder he had decided on at the time.
He is a benefactor, he is his own hero.
From Lee Moon-soo’s point of view, Mina would be one of the family members of the numerous victims he was responsible for, but to Mina, she was the only person who had the most profound influence on her path to becoming a hero.
I thought that if I could, someone like him would want to become a hero. That’s why I’m fighting like this.
But do you think you deserve to be called a hero right now? Mina looked at his face and asked herself.
“hmm.”
A wound on his head. A large wound in the form of being torn by strong force was visible above his ear.
It looks like a hairstyle with scratches strangely put in a barrel that usually goes without maintenance at all, but looking at the ugly stitch marks, that thought quickly disappeared.
Yesterday, Lee Mun-soo was present at the scene where New Hope and Sik-Gwi were fighting in a redevelopment area in Gangdong-gu, and the moment Sik-Gwi lost his stamina during the fight, he moved faster than himself as if he noticed something.
I found out later that Shik-Gwi was seriously injured when he first confronted the police, but after killing and eating another person present, he quickly recovered and ran amok.
That’s why it seems that he tried to do the same thing when he lost his strength, but Lee Mun-soo jumped in front of Sik-gwi who was trying to kill and eat his subordinate, and it was misfired.
Sik-Gwi, who tried to replenish his strength by eating his subordinates, attacked Moon-Soo Lee in anger that he had been disturbed.
Mina thought that Lee Mun-soo was dead at that moment. Shik-Kwi is such a strong monster, and he’s a guy who doesn’t let anything go hand in hand.
Fortunately, Lee Mun-soo miraculously escaped his attack. Unfortunately, he suffered a severe head wound as if he had not completely avoided the impact, but he managed to survive.
Of course, he could barely survive, and it would have been difficult to move easily. The long scar above the ear was distorted.
Seeing his eyes and nose bleeding, the average person would probably find it difficult to properly maintain himself with such a wound.
However, even with such a wound, he did not fall down, supported New Hope with a pistol, and even transported the criminals on foot.
Even though he’s obviously done such a great job – I see only stories of swearing at the police in the news or anywhere.
Mina thought.
When he first started fighting while covering his face, he started fighting to prevent people from being subjected to unreasonable things, just as Lee Mun-soo helped him, but he kept making mistakes.
Arrested the serial killer Minus, lost him because of his mistake, and did something stupid again.
what is a hero Who has special powers? who helps people? Will he be able to reach that standard? Mina asked herself, but she couldn’t come up with an answer that the girl herself could understand.
The image of Shik-Gwi, who tried to kill and eat his subordinates without hesitation, is still frightening and frightening.
If he hadn’t stopped Sikki from devouring his subordinates, he would have lost. My body trembles just imagining what would have happened if I had lost.
And when I thought about what would happen to the policemen and Lee Mun-soo who were there when I lost, I even felt my heart stop.
What should I say? Yes, it was thrilling to fight crime under the mask of a hero, alongside someone you admire.
He imagined working together with Detective Lee Mun-soo to protect the city together, but in reality he was terribly lacking, and after meeting a real monster, he cowered in fear.
Can I overcome it? can i make it While worries and fears piled up in the little girl’s heart. In front of the girl, the adult handed the fries he had received to the girl.
Lee Mun-soo, with a blunt face, said nothing as he looked at Mina, who blinked blankly and asked why he was giving this.
But with that gaze, Mina felt enough.
The gaze that silently supports oneself. That was enough for Mina. If you need to find a reason to fight in this world, it will be enough to fight because he is there.
But if he really dies – what will happen to himself?
Mina hid her dark doubts and put the fries Lee Mun-soo gave her into her mouth.
*****
Crying over an empty wallet after feeding a kid for a while. The first thing I did when I got home was take the medicine I got from the ER.
The antibiotics I received when I went to the emergency room while bleeding from my head and had to have 10 stitches sewn up.
The words of the doctor who said that he would split his head from the top of his head if he didn’t take care of this properly were sincere.
Even though I was taking the medicine properly, I felt that my head was pounding, but I soon stopped thinking as my body became listless.
After throwing my sleepy body onto the blanket that was always spread, I lay down blankly and felt the touch of the blanket.
The feel of the rustling blanket. After graduating from the police academy, the blanket I bought as a police officer had already worn out at sunset, so it didn’t feel soft, but now I feel lonely without it.
Maybe it’s because I’ve developed a habit of falling asleep whenever I have a place to rest my head. My eyes slowly close from fatigue. Oh, I’m going to sleep soon. Intuitively, I felt the souma grab me and swallow me.
I checked my phone before falling asleep. I came home and rested like this, but when an incident occurs, it is the job of a detective who has no family or anything to run out at any time. Always set your cell phone volume to maximum.
Bonnie, the sound is turned on properly, and the charger is connected. I’m going to sleep like this – the moment I want to, the Kakao Talk notification sound hits my ears.
I wondered if it was an incident, but I remember that if it was an incident, I couldn’t get in touch, but not via KakaoTalk.
I wanted to just ignore it and go to sleep, but for some reason I felt uncomfortable. That’s great too.
It wouldn’t be a big deal if it came at this hour anyway, so the moment I checked KakaoTalk with that thought in mind, the fog in my head disappeared and I suddenly became alert.
What was written on KakaoTalk was definitely nothing special. A notification that a new member is coming to the special investigation team dedicated to supervillains was posted in the investigation team’s chatroom. In addition, the ordinary content with the identity of the newcomer written on it.
It is natural to be recruited in a situation where there are almost no people on the special investigation team, including me, but the newcomer is the problem.
name is Sai. It’s a strange name, but as long as the name of the leader of the special investigation team is Kim, I don’t care about having a strange name in this world.
In terms of appearance, she had messy hair that seemed more unmanaged than mine, and her skin was strangely white. At first glance, the scene appears to be a person in front of the desk, barely running.
He seems to be a man with blue eyes and a pitiful look like a woman, but-
This guy’s name is not Sai. real name unknown. No, she’s not a guy, she’s a woman.
The identity of this newcomer is the main character’s arch enemy and the final boss of this novel.
This woman, including the main character Mina, is the only one with innate psychic powers, and she is said to have the ability to change humans.
Like transforming your hands into giant claws, or if you attack with fire, you change into flame-resistant skin, change your gender, or someone else’s DNA or soul? It is a kind of power that manipulates the same thing.
That’s right, not terrible. However, this is because he did not do anything with this power, and suddenly, because he was bored, he randomly awakened civilians into supernatural powers using a special drug he made.
While happily watching the world fall into chaos, devouring the world behind it. By chance, he discovers New Hope, who is not a psychic awakened by drugs, but a person with innate psychic powers like himself.
The dark side takes a great interest in Mina and infiltrates the special investigation team to observe her. After that, he tries to put her to the test by causing various incidents and watching her suffer and collapse.
However, seeing the main character who does not give up until the end, this black man is sincerely interested in the main character and reveals his true identity, saying that he will come back with a better plan. This is the content of the next chapter.
Even from the point of view of the police, it can be said that it is the enemy who made the world into a mess. There is one more reason that it doesn’t just end with enemies.
When this black man infiltrates the special investigation team, he is not satisfied with being one of the mediocre detectives and rises to the position of class leader by performing various activities. After revealing his identity, he goes into hiding
The head of the special investigation team in charge of villains was actually behind the scenes of all supervillain cases? If this is known, what will be the position of the special investigation team? It’s just going to be a bitch.
He is the worst thing from the police point of view, but the worst villain in the world view that the reason he did all that was just for fun. That’s what that darkness is.
A guy like that has just appeared. Did Sai appear right after the appearance of Sikgwi? No, but the real name is corny.
Can I just leave this guy alone? But if you don’t let it go, what am I to do? Wouldn’t the world be peaceful if you ‘pretend’ that you don’t know and stab yourself in the back?
My head hurts because my thoughts are constantly shaking like fallen leaves floating in the wind, but I bury my head in the pillow.
Will it die if you shoot me from behind? Even if the main character who can literally divide the human body into five parts is a guy who is fine even if he tries to kill him?
ㅡ Is there anything I can do? then why don’t you give up What would you do if you thought about what you couldn’t do?
I closed my eyes and threw myself into the water horse for peace of mind.
