Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1495
Only Noblemtl
1495 times. So what year and day is it now in the solar calendar?
Jin Gwa-wol opened her eyes to the warm warmth transmitted to her face.
He unconsciously recalled the fight with the Jangrakbang assassins and got up from his seat.
But the Jangrakbang assassins were nowhere to be seen.
Instead, Yeonjeok-ha was staring blankly at herself in a dilapidated ruin.
“Why did you… … . Did you see those guys from Jangrakbang?”
“I saw it.”
“You survived after seeing them? Explain what happened.”
“When those guys were about to kill the Vice President… … a certain hero appeared, subdued them, and disappeared. After that, I quickly took the Vice President and ran away.”
“A swordsman?”
Jin Gwa-wol looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with ambiguous eyes.
It smells so strongly of a martial arts drama that it’s hard to believe.
“Have you seen whose face it is?”
“I haven’t seen it.”
The lover answered naturally and innocently.
It wasn’t a lie. How can you see your own face without a mirror?
Jin Guowue quickly went out the door, looked around, and then came back.
“Ha! If what you say is true… … You and I have been to the Grim Reaper and come out. Ma Jang-cheong is not one to give up his prey easily. Do you know where this is?”
“I don’t know. I was just walking along the path my feet took me and came across an abandoned house, so I decided to take a rest.”
Jin Gwa-wol said, feeling her shoulders, waist, and back with his hands.
“I see. My wounds must have been serious… … Did you treat them?”
“Rather than treating it, they just applied ointment and tied it up.”
“Thank you. I’ve been stabbed many times, but this is the first time I’ve felt this relieved. Did you study medicine?”
“Not at all. I’m not good at studying.”
“I see.”
Could it be that you didn’t take seriously the words of a person whose mind was wandering?
Jin Gwa-wol didn’t ask any more questions.
But that was only what was visible on the surface, and Jin Gwa-wol observed Yeon Jeok-ha without showing any signs.
It’s honestly hard to believe, but he could be a top-tier mutant.
Jin Gwa-wol, who was looking at the campfire with a blank expression, suddenly took out a black pad from his bosom.
It is a genetic variation measurement device (MDM).
When Yeonjeok-ha stared at the measuring device, Jin Gwa-wol smiled and said.
“Are you curious about what this is?”
“You said it was a dimensional force meter.”
“It’s not as accurate as the screw, but it’s still pretty fun. Hold out your hand.”
“Hand?”
As Yeonjeokha stretched out her right hand, Jin Gwa-wol placed the pad on Yeonjeokha’s palm and turned it on.
A white light circled around in the center of the pad.
After about 30 seconds?
With a ‘Tiring!’ sound, the number 0 appeared in the center of the pad.
“Your dimensionality is 0. That means you’re a normal person, not a mutant.”
“Ah! That wasn’t it… … .”
Yeonjeokha, who likes free stuff, trailed off with a bittersweet expression on his face.
Unlike Yeonjeokha, Jin Gwa-wol’s expression was bright.
Now he decided to trust the young man before him – even though his mind was wandering.
Jin Gwa-wol, who had retrieved the pad, asked seriously.
“What do you plan to do in the future?”
“There is a goddess I must meet. I plan to find her.”
“Yeoseon? Who are you talking about?”
Jin Gwa-wol thought that Yeon Jeok-ha wanted to meet a celebrity because she was a fan.
For someone who was obsessed with martial arts dramas, this was a situation that made perfect sense.
“It’s the Nine Thousand Heavenly Women.”
“Aside from the role, you can’t find it that way. Who is that actress?”
“What is the role and what is the actress?”
“Isn’t there an actress who played the role of Gucheonhyeonnyeo in a drama or movie? Who is she?”
“You were saying it was a drama earlier, but what is that? And what about the movie?”
“Aren’t you talking about TV dramas? Surely you don’t know what a TV is?”
“What is that?”
“… … .”
Jin Gwa-wol was frustrated, but he didn’t get angry.
Because he is my savior and I know he is crazy.
“Seeing once is not as good as hearing a hundred times, right? I’ll show you later. By the way… … Other than meeting Gucheonhyeonnyeo, it seems like there’s nothing else to do, right?”
“you’re right.”
“Did you come all the way here from Hapbi to meet Gucheonhyeonnyeo?”
“yes.”
“I see, that’s it.”
Jin Gwa-wol nodded as if he now knew everything.
‘You thought the drama was real and wandered around to meet Gucheonhyeonnyeo.’
He opened his mouth, his heart aching.
“You said you don’t have a resident ID or residence permit?”
“Yes. Is that really necessary?”
“Of course. In the past, if you didn’t have a house number, you would be taken to the police station. Identification checks are stricter these days than in the past. If you don’t have an ID card, you will be taken to the police station. It was the same in the past, but getting involved with the police station is not good.”
Jin Gwa-wol shook his head as if he was sick of just thinking about it.
“I only have a badge… … This won’t do, right?”
“Of course. By the way, I was thinking of making you an ID card as a reward… … What do you think?”
For Jin Gwa-wol, a mid-level manager of the Samhaphoe, making an ID card was no easy task.
“I am grateful.”
He readily accepted the proposal of the lover, Jin Gwa-wol.
In order to survive in this day and age, you need to have an ID card, so you had to grab the opportunity when it came.
“Okay. If you put your hometown in ten words… … it should take a week.”
Yeon Jeok-ha, who wanted to make Seokgyeongjang his hometown, asked cautiously.
“Excuse me, is it possible to do it with a combined fee?”
“Of course it is possible. However, if you want to do it as a combined project, it will take at least a month to prepare. It may take a little longer. Is that okay?”
“Yes, if possible, I would like to do it as a combined one. Since that is where I lived.”
“Oh, you seem to remember home. Where is it? I’ll try to match it to that place.”
Jin Gwa-wol dug into it, hoping it would help revive Yeon Jeok-ha’s memories.
“This is the Seokgyeongjang in Yeoganghyeon.”
“Seokgyeongjang… … It’s the name of a motel or restaurant, isn’t it?”
“Not at all. It’s a regular estate.”
“Oh, you don’t know what address it is?”
“What is the address?”
When Yeonjeokha made her usual bewildered expression, Jin Gwa-wol quickly finished speaking.
“It’s okay if you don’t know. It’s hard to get to Seokgyeongjang anyway. If you’re lucky, you might be able to get to Yeoganghyeon. If that doesn’t work out, just settle for Hapbi.”
The Triad is not an identity card issuing agency.
They simply forge the identities of dead wanderers, migrant workers, etc.
So, it was difficult to guarantee even Yeo Gang-hyeon, let alone Seok Gyeong-jang.
“Yes. It doesn’t matter. If it doesn’t work out, you can use the ten-word poem as your hometown.”
He didn’t insist on his place of origin.
In fact, his place of origin didn’t mean much to him, as he had been wandering around for a long time without any connections.
“By the way, do you know how old you are?”
Now, Jin Gwa-wol openly treated Yeon Jeok-ha as a person with a ‘brain problem’, but Yeon Jeok-ha paid no attention.
Rather, I was more worried about how old I should say myself.
“I don’t know?”
“Well, I guess so.”
Jin Gwa-wol didn’t criticize him for not knowing such things.
Looking back on our conversations with him so far, it wasn’t surprising that he didn’t know.
Jin Gwa-wol, who was looking closely at Yeon Jeok-ha’s face, said.
“You look like you’re in your mid-twenties to me.”
“Aren’t you in your mid-thirties?”
“Don’t joke around. If you look like you’re in your thirties, no one will believe you. They’ll be suspicious. You just need to get an ID that says you’re in your mid to late twenties.”
Jin Gwa-wol, who had been muttering to herself, stared at Yeon Jeok-ha.
“What else is left?”
“How about staying with me until I get my ID? Oh, of course, if you have somewhere else to go, that’s fine too. Do you have a place to stay?”
“Not at all.”
“Then, please stay with me.”
“I’m grateful… … but I feel like I’m causing too much trouble… … .”
“Perani, you are absolutely not my kindness. You are my benefactor. I would do nothing for you.”
Jin Gwa-wol planned to keep Yeon Jeok-ha by his side and watch over her for the time being.
If only my head was intact, I would have accepted him as a family member, but it was impossible for me to do so now.
Yeonjeokha’s voice came into Jin Gwa-wol’s ear as he was lost in thought.
“But, Vice President.”
“But why?”
“Who is the emperor now?”
Jin Gwa-wol, who had been looking at Yeon Jeok-ha with a surprised expression, soon relaxed her expression.
He thought that Yeonjeokha had once again fallen into her own world.
“Since Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, there has been no emperor in China.”
“Has the Qing Dynasty fallen?”
“It’s been a long time since it went bankrupt. It went bankrupt in 1912.”
“… … .”
Yeon-jeok was surprised, but didn’t show it.
I knew that the Ming Dynasty was conquered by the Qing Dynasty.
For a while, the world was in an uproar over the rumor that ‘Emperor Chongzhen had hanged himself in Gyeongsan.’
But the Qing Dynasty fell!
“Then what is the national title now?”
“People’s Republic of China. Abbreviated as China.”
“But if there is no emperor… … how do we determine the basis for counting the days?”
“Hehehe! Of course, it’s based on the solar calendar. One year is the time it takes the Earth to circle the Sun once. One year is 365 days.”
“So what year and day is it now in the solar calendar?”
“Today? It’s February 14, 2034.”
“… … .”
The solar calendar was so unfamiliar that I just blinked for a long time.
“Well then, what happens if we convert ‘17th year of Sungjeong’ into the solar calendar?”
“Sungjeong? What is that?”
“The last emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the Chongzhen Emperor. I am talking about the 17th year of the Chongzhen Emperor.”
“I don’t know about that. If I remember correctly, the Ming Dynasty fell in 1644.”
As expected of a mid-level manager of the Samadhoe, Jin Guowue did not forget the day of the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
This is because the roots of the Samhaphoe are in Cheonjihoe, which raised the banner of anti-Qing restoration.
“ah…….”
For a moment, Yeonjeokha’s eyes wavered.
If what Jin Gwa-wol said was true, then 390 years had passed.
“But why?”
“No. Time really… seems to pass quickly.”
“Hurry up. It seems like I was a teenager just the day before yesterday… … I already have a grown daughter.”
“You have a daughter.”
A sad smile appeared on Yeonjeokha’s face as he thought of his daughter who had chosen natural history.
Jin Gwa-wol, who misunderstood that smile, said a word.
“Don’t even think about doing anything with my daughter. If you approach her clumsily, you’ll only get hurt for no reason. She’s pretty, but her dimensionality is high, so many people have been hurt by her. You don’t have dimensionality, so don’t even go near her.”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I have high standards, so I don’t even see ordinary women as women.”
Jin Gwa-wol was secretly not happy about those words.
You can simply say ‘Okay’, but don’t worry because you have high standards…
“I’m saying this not because she’s my daughter, but because she’s really pretty.”
“Haha. I understand that feeling. Even a hedgehog says its own baby is cute.”
“… … .”
Jin Gwa-wol felt sad towards Yeon-jeok-ha, who did not give a single word, but tried to suppress her emotions.
It would only harm you if you argued with someone who had a mental disorder over your daughter.
Meanwhile, the day slowly dawned.
A heavy sigh escaped Jin Gwa-wol’s mouth as he suddenly remembered Jangrakbang.
‘ha!’
Since the assassination attempt failed, they were going to attack Hongryeon Trading Company in earnest, but they had no proper plan.
“Then the floor will collapse?”
Jin Gwa-wol laughed bitterly at Yeon-jeok-ha’s joke that he was living in another world.
“I hope you don’t have any worries or concerns.”
“Why are you saying such sad things… … When I think about it, I have many worries of my own.”
Yeonjeokha looked at Jin Gwa-wol with eyes that seemed to be aggrieved.
No matter how worried you are, you can only be confident that you have survived 390 years.
