Chapter 3

It has become a hot topic as it has been revealed that the personal assets amounted to 3 trillion Won of the chairman of Daesang Group, who passed away a few days ago, went to the son of the owner of Daesang Group, who was hidden..

Radio news was playing on a city bus full of people.

[The heir is currently doing something that has nothing to do with the management of the Daesang Group, and it is known that his relationship with the owner family has been long lost, so some speculate that he is the son of the late former director Lee Hanseok.]

And at the back seat of the bus.

Hyunsoo is looking intently at the notes he wrote in his notebook.

Jiiing- Jiiing-

The cell phone in the pocket of Hyunsoo's pants rang.

Hyunsoo focused more on finding the criminal who he didn't know than on the phone call from someone he knew.

It was a school uniform at Youngsoo High School, and the perpetrators were three male students. The evidence is a cell phone.

Jiiing- Jiiing-

Hyunsoo sighed and took out his cell phone as it continued to ring.

[Team Leader Heo / 3 missed calls]

Hyunsoo frowned and pressed the power button on the phone to turn it off. Then he opened the side window. The cool wind brushed Hyunsoo's face. It seemed to be a little easier to breathe in the crowded bus.

Even though Hyunsoo could see future incidents, he could not always stop them.

He didn't know that the scene of his parents' death would leave in his head, and even the screams of the victims that passed through his head lingered in his ears. Then one day, when he visited the scene of the incident and caught the culprit, Hyunsoo felt a little relieved of guilt.

Catching criminals.

That was Hyunsoo's only way to breathe.

Hyunsoo, who was once again immersed in old sentiments, took a few deep breaths and exhaled, then looked at the notebook again.

One is the leader, and two male students followed him. They're all in the same class as the female victim.

The scene of the incident that flashed in his head was an incident involving students from Youngsoo High School near Seoul City Hall.

Hyunsoo recalled that brief but crucial moment once again.

* * *

Yah, isn't this a bit strange? Do you think she's dead?

In a small motel room of about 3 pyeong*.

A male student who was buttoning up his school uniform touched the arm of a female student lying under his feet. Then another male student next to him put on his jacket and shook his head.

Is she going to die just because she drank it? Youre making no sense.

No, she could die.

It was a voice from behind.

Another boy in the same uniform as two male students.

What? Eyy No way.

People who don't drink are said to die if they drink too much. Why, there was a lot of news like that in the past. University students go to MT** and die while drinking.

Hey, then If she dies!

Rather good.

A male student leaning against the wall in the back slowly approached.

What? Why?

There's no evidence. What we did to her.

As he walked, he picked up a cell phone that was standing on a small table.

Well, even if she didn't die, she wouldn't be able to say anything. Because we have this.

Then, with the sound of ding- that could be heard when the video recording ended, he put his phone in his pocket.

It's not our fault that she died from drinking too much. Who told her to be born unable to drink? There is no evidence that we force-fed her.

Then that video.

Don't worry, I'll keep it safe. So listen carefully.

The male student approached the other two and put his arms around their shoulders.

Even if she dies, it's never our fault.

* * *

Hyunsoo, who was pondering the scenes again and outlined the incident, opened his eyes wide. His eyes turned sharp with killing intent.

[The next stop is Youngsoo High School.]

* * *

Chwiik-

The bus door opened and Hyunsoo got off.

Perhaps he rushed out of the motel room, but the man wearing a shirt over his underwear looked around in surprise.

Why are you so surprised

The man seemed quite surprised to respond to a black box request because of the incident.

Hyunsoo, who was looking at the man's outfit, turned his head into the car. Hyunsoo looked inside the heavily tinted car windows as he almost glued his eyes to the windows.

S, Sir! What are you doing!

I see.

It was a lidless lipstick that fell next to the passenger seat that caught Hyunsoo's eye as he was glued to the window and looking inside the car. Hyunsoo turned his head toward the man.

Are you having an affair?

How can I do that!

Eyy, don't be afraid because unfaithfulness in marriage isn't my responsibility.

Hyunsoo, who leaned his shoulder on the car, waved his hand.

You see what's happening here? We're trying to catch the perpetrators, so let's cooperate.

Then, then bring me a warrant!

Pardon?

Just because you're a police doesn't mean you can take the black box as you please! I'll give it to you when you getthe warrant.

Hyunsoo let out a short sigh and turned his wrist to check the time.

You must have a lot of things you want to hide. But I think it will take too long to get a warrant.

Then I can't give it to you! Without a warrant, the black box of my privacy.

Then 100 million Won.

Pardon?

An absurd glint escaped the man's eyes.

Looking at it, the black box quality seems to be very good 100 million Won will be enough.

Is, is it okay for police to do this?

The man's eyes trembled, but he didn't reject Hyunsoo's proposal.

It's not going to be used as court evidence anyway, I just want to know the faces and names of these criminals..

.

Would you like to get 100 million Won and cooperate with a good deed?

* * *

If you're going to use such a high-quality black box, don't cheat in the car Anyway.

Thanks to the middle-aged man who pretended to be worried and quickly accepted Hyunsoo's proposal, Hyunsoo was able to check the screen on the black box right away.

As expected, money is good. It's solved in one go.

Hyunsoo escaped the crowd while looking at the phone picture of the recorded black box screen.

Kim Byunwoo, Shin Hancha I can't see the other one.

As he moved, Hyunsoo enlarged the name tags of male students on the screen. Luckily, two of the three perpetrators had their name tags stamped correctly on the black box.

Your faces I can see them well.

Hyunsoo, who was looking at the photo and comparing it with the faces in his memory, called someone.

Uh, Police Officer Kim. Please give me a background check. Uh. The name is Kim Byunwoo, Shin Hancha, they are high school students, and from their uniform, I think they go to Youngsoo High School near here.

Hyunsoo, who continued to speak, frowned for a moment.

I'm sure the uniform is. Wait a minute.

Hyunsoo, who took his cell phone off his ear, went back into the photo album and checked the perpetrators who were taken in the black box.

This uniform.

Hyunsoo opened his eyes wide and quickly turned his head.

No way.

Hyunsoo strode across the crosswalk. A theory flashed through his mind.

The criminal always returns to the scene.

Moreover, if they are immature teenagers.

Hyunsoo's gaze turned to the other side. At the end of that gaze, two male students were standing wearing the same school uniform as the female victim.

Hyunsoo approached them and grabbed one of them by the shoulder.

Got ya, you bastards.__________
