Episode 148. What if your arms bend too much inward? (1)

Hwangbo Gyeonwu flinched for a moment at Hanbin’s confident expression.

For a moment, he quickly collected his expression and smiled bitterly.

This is a game that has already been decided.

In his view, Hanbin was caught in a trap from which he could never escape.

This trap was the work of Hwangbo Young-woo, the younger brother of Hwangbo Se-ga, who was said to be the most intelligent of the Hwangbo family.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo imagined Hanbin kneeling and praying for a while later.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo said with a sly smile.

“That’s what I’m going to say. What should I do? I want to tell you that this is your last chance to apologize.”

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo also spoke to Hanbin.

Hanbin nodded and snickered at that sight.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo said indifferently at Hanbin’s relaxed expression.

“He’s the kind of guy who would shed tears just by looking at a coffin.”

“Then you seem like the kind of person who would laugh even if you saw a coffin. Seeing how clueless you are.”

Hanbin fought back.

“hmm.”

Hwangbo Gyeon-woo coughed in vain without realizing it, seeing Hanbin’s attitude of not backing down even an inch even in a crisis situation.

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon, who was watching at that time, looked at Han-bin fiercely.

“Are you done talking now?”

“Yes, it’s finished.”

“Then do you admit your guilt? Lord Sa of Habukpengga.”

Her voice was as emotionless as a rice paddy ridge in a drought.

Hanbin asked back, maintaining a relaxed expression the whole time.

“Guilt? I maintain my innocence.”

“What is the basis?”

“Will you believe me if I tell you?”

“If it is valid, I believe it. I will stake the honor of the Hwangbo family on it! And I will stake my duty as the head of the law enforcement party on it.”

“Okay, then I will now assert my innocence.”

Everyone tilted their heads at Hanbin’s words.

How on earth can you claim innocence?

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo snorted.

On the other hand, the Red Blood Tiger Squad members looked at Hanbin with worried expressions.

Now, there is a dead body and a witness.

There was no way out.

Imoo-myeong quietly whispered next to Han-bin.

“Master, what will you do?”

“When the sky falls, there is no way to rise again.”

“Huh? What do you mean? Shouldn’t there be a hole to pop out of?”

“What is normal? That is a false proverb. How can we escape when the sky is falling?”

“Then what?”

“Look carefully, is the sky falling?”

When Hanbin pointed to the sky, Imoo-myeong raised his head.

The sky was so clear, as if blue paint had been released.

‘Why is the sky so clear?’

When Imoo-myeong tilted his head, Hanbin continued speaking.

“The sky didn’t fall, so I’m fine.”

After finishing speaking, Hanbin walked forward, staggering forward.

The place where Hanbin stopped walking was the place where the maid saw him.

Hanbin sat there as if nothing had happened and looked back and forth between Hwangbo Seo-hyeon and the maid.

Hanbin’s gaze stopped at the maid.

“You said you were here tidying up the grass and flowers?”

When Hanbin pointed to the seat, the maid answered.

“yes that’s right.”

As the maid nodded, Hanbin sat down.

dump.

Hanbin, sitting comfortably on the grass as if he was on a picnic, looked at the flowers in front of him.

When I raise my head while looking at the flowers, this time I see a pavilion.

It was just as the maid said.

While everyone was tilting their heads, Hanbin spoke to Hwangbo Seohyun.

“Your Majesty, would you please stand behind me?”

“Well, it won’t be difficult. After all, this will be the last time that Sa-gong-ja does something like this.”

Hwangbo Seo-hyun stood quietly behind Han Bin.

Hanbin glanced at Hwangbo Seohyun’s location and picked up a branch next to her.

He tapped a shadow on the branch.

“Just as the maid said, I see a shadow here.”

What Hanbin took a picture of is Hwangbo Seohyun’s shadow.

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon said.

“You have confirmed the maid’s testimony that she recognized the shadow as the Four Princes. Digging her own grave… … . Tsk tsk.”

Hwangbo Seo-hyun clicked her tongue while looking at Han Bin.

The Hanbin I met last night wasn’t this stupid.

But the sight of Hanbin continuously stamping on his own feet was pitiful.

Despite Hwangbo Seo-hyeon’s mocking voice, Han-bin asked the maid again.

“Are you sure you saw a shadow here?”

“Yes, I am sure.”

“And the moment you turned your head, you were subdued by the demon blood?”

“yes that’s right.”

“And you recognized me from the red uniform passing by and the sound coming from the pavilion?”

“Yes, I definitely heard the voice of the Master trying to rape that child. The child refused. Sob, sob.”

The maid who had been pointing towards the pavilion hid behind Hwangbo Seo-hyeon.

In an instant, exclamations came out from all over the place.

“Huh, it is known to the world that the Four Princes of Hebei Pengga are the greatest cowards in Hebei, but I did not know that they are also the greatest lechers in Hebei.”

“You’re right. If you covet another man’s maid, you can’t kill her.”

“You have committed an outrageous act. The head of the Habuk Peng family must be worried.”

“That’s right. Just because they come from the same womb doesn’t mean they’re all the same.”

“Hey, that’s wrong.”

“what?”

“Because we’re not in the same boat.”

The warriors of Hwangbo Se-ga who followed along were busy pointing fingers at Han Bin.

The moment when everyone thinks Hanbin’s guilt is clear.

Hwangbo Seohyun also bit her lips tightly.

Now it was time for him to make a decision as the head of the ruling party.

She took up her sword silently.

Swish!

The sword cut through the fragrant scent of flowers.

The sword stopped just an inch in front of Hanbin’s nape.

If Hwangbo Seo-hyeon wanted to, she could have her neck cut off.

Hanbin nonchalantly picked a flower and threw it on her shadow.

Bam!

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon shouted at that sight.

“What do you mean? Are you asking me to kill you?”

“Think carefully. Can that flower stay in the same place until the sun sets?”

“… … .”

“The time the murder is said to have occurred was before the sun rose. At that time, the direction of the shadow would have been… … .”

Hanbin smiled brightly, picked up the flowers, and threw them behind him.

Bam!

The flower fell far back, out of the shadow.

For a moment, Hwangbo Seo-hyeon narrowed her eyes and looked at the maid.

Everything Hanbin said was right.

The maid tilted her head as if she didn’t know what Hanbin meant.

At that moment, the tip of Hwangbo Seo-hyeon’s sword was pointed at the maid’s neck.

Swish!

The maid screamed out of nowhere.

“Ah! Your Majesty!”

“Why did you lie?”

“I have never lied.”

When the maid answered urgently, Hwangbo Seo-hyeon slightly showed her momentum.

“You said you saw a shadow cast while looking at the flowers in front of you. However, at the time of the murder, the shadow was clearly shining this way. Everything is as Peng Gongzi said.”

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon pointed to the direction of the shadow with the tip of her sword and questioned him.

“ah…….”

Only then did the maid realize her slip of the tongue and hesitate, only letting out a long sigh.

At that moment, Hwangbo Gyeonwoo intervened urgently.

“This is the first time a child has witnessed a murder. Isn’t it possible that he is so flustered that his memory is erratic?”

“… … .”

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon looked at the maid for a moment.

Because Hwangbo Gyeonwoo’s words were reasonable.

Then Hanbin quietly intervened.

“Then how can we believe the testimony of a maid whose memory is erratic?”

In that moment, the surroundings began to stir.

“Now that I hear it, what the Four Dukes of Habukpengga said makes sense.”

“That’s right.”

That was the moment when the incident was about to return to its origin.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo spoke cautiously.

“I heard something a little while ago, but there is one more witness.”

“A witness?”

When Hwangbo Seo-hyeon opened her eyes wide in surprise, Song Kyung-woon appeared behind Hwangbo Gyeon-woo.

Song Kyung-woon walked slowly and gave a prize to Hwangbo Seo-hyeon, the head of the ruling party.

“I come to see the Lord of the Law Enforcement Party.”

“Gather the examples and tell me what you have seen.”

“Yes, so… … .”

Song Kyung-woon glanced at Han Bin and continued his statement with a serious expression.

As Song Kyung-woon continued his explanation, people’s attention was focused on Han Bin.

His statement was simple.

The fact that the head of the household had asked to see Hanbin was a mistake on his part, and that Hanbin, who had been invited to the pavilion that way, had tried to molest the maid and escaped from the pavilion.

As everyone’s eyes turned to Hanbin, he shrugged his shoulders and approached Song Kyungwoon.

“Song Musa, are you sure about me?”

“I am sure.”

“How did you know it was me when you saw me from far away?”

“There is only one person in the red uniform, Hwangbo Se-ga.”

When Song Kyung-woon pointed at Hanbin, Hanbin continued speaking without any expression.

“Shall we make a bet?”

“What kind of bet are you talking about?”

“I’ll bet my arm that Song Musa’s words are wrong.”

“yes?”

“So, Song Musa will walk too.”

“Then I will also give one of my arms… … .”

Hanbin quickly cut him off.

“No, not Song Musa. You should put Song Musa’s arm on the line. Shouldn’t the scales be balanced?”

After finishing speaking, Hanbin glanced at Hwangbo Seohyun.

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon looked back and forth between the two as if trying to figure out the truth.

Then Hanbin continued speaking.

“If a person dies, is one arm a big deal? I think it’s worth risking this much for the truth.”

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon seemed lost in thought for a moment and put her sword back in its scabbard.

She had to be careful.

As one axis of the Justice Alliance.

As a member of the Gangbuk Five Great Families.

As the head of the Hwangbo family, I had to make the right decision.

Then Hanbin continued speaking.

“Can someone who can’t stake anything on his own claims really be called a member of the Hwangbo family? Can someone who hides his voice behind his subordinates really be called a direct descendant of the Hwangbo family?”

Hanbin put special emphasis on the word Hwangbo Se-ga.

The Red Blood Tiger Squad members nodded at Hanbin’s words.

The first to speak up was So Dae-seop.

“Right!”

There was no worry in So Dae-seop’s eyes as he looked at Han Bin.

There was only anticipation in his eyes.

Because the current scene is one I have seen many times before.

As expected, it was clear that Hanbin would be the winner of this bet.

Following So Dae-seop, Jo Ho spoke up.

“Walk!”

“Joho is right. I think a man should bet not just one arm, but two.”

Could those words have become seeds?

Suddenly everyone started throwing their weapons at the ground.

“Walk!”

“Walk!”

It wasn’t just the Red Blood Tigers.

The Hwangbo family members and warriors around them also began to speak out in unison.

Hanbin nodded with a satisfied expression at their voices.

The cries that had been ringing for a long time have now fallen silent.

Everyone is looking at Hwangbo Seo-hyeon, the head of the law enforcement agency.

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon raised her sword and shouted.

“I stake my sword and acknowledge the validity of this wager!”

A promise made suddenly.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo’s eyes widened as he watched from behind.

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo intervened urgently.

“Please wait a moment, Your Majesty.”

“Do you have anything to say?”

“It’s a bet that has nothing to do with my intentions.”

“Then, will you withdraw your testimony?”

“… … .”

Hwangbo Gyeonwoo looked at Song Gyeongwoon without saying a word.

It was a trap that took into account that the maid’s testimony would not be accepted.

Up to this point, everything was going perfectly according to Hwangbo Gyeonwoo’s plan.

The moment Song Kyung-woon appeared, Han Bin had to kneel.

But then you suddenly proposed a bet.

And what exactly is this anxiety?

As Hwangbo Gyeon-woo stood there without saying anything, Hwangbo Seo-hyeon opened her eyes sharply.

“I don’t admit it.”

“Your Majesty!”

“Enough!”

Hwangbo Seo-hyeon stopped Hwangbo Gyeon-woo with her sword.

As the head of the court, she made the right decision.

If Song Kyung-woon was right, then this matter could have ended by taking one of Han Bin’s arms away.

What if Song Kyung-woon lied?

That was all I could think about at that time.

Then Hanbin snapped his fingers.

Exactly!

At the same time, everyone tilted their heads.

Everyone looked around to find out why Hanbin had attracted their attention, but nothing had changed.

At that moment, Seolhwa appeared behind Hanbin.

Everyone except Hanbin tilted their heads at the sight of Seol-hwa, who appeared wearing a pretty red uniform with green stripes.

That’s because I thought nothing would change just because Hanbin’s maid, Seolhwa, appeared.
