◈Episode 159◈

The most embarrassing moment

Shin Dae-seong asked calmly.

“What did that shaman say?”

“The weather is really bad.”

Shin Dae-seong answered while looking at the gloomy sky.

“The weather hasn’t been good for a while······.”

“The weather is always different, isn’t it? Detective Shin’s fortune has been very bad lately.”

“I have no idea.”

Kim Han-gyeol said with an earnest expression.

“You must believe the fortune of the Fairy of the Moon. She especially told me not to go to church.”

“why?”

“Something really bad is going to happen.”

“How exactly is it bad? Am I going to die or something?”

“We didn’t go into detail. If it’s really bad, isn’t it obvious what it’s going to be like?”

-widely.

Shin Dae-seong said, placing his hand on Kim Han-gyeol’s shoulder.

“I don’t believe in religion or shamanism. Don’t worry, there won’t be any problems this time either.”

“I’m not a shamanist either. But it can’t hurt to be careful, right? Let’s go in when the backup police arrive, right?”

“I want to do that too······ But there’s no word from the person I requested support for?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Kim Han-gyeol also looked back, but he couldn’t see anyone.

“The gangsters had a determined look on their faces. If we don’t go in now, something might happen.”

“First, let me make a phone call. Why haven’t the reinforcements arrived yet?”

“I told you, I don’t have time for that.”

Shin Dae-seong did not wait and headed to the church building.

Kim Han-gyeol followed right away and spoke with detective Bang Jin-woo.

-Yes, hello?

“Why haven’t the reinforcements arrived yet?”

-I just got that call. The patrol car that was dispatched got into an accident on the snowy road.

“what?”

-We’re hearing reports of accidents here and there due to the heavy snowfall. We’ve sent out another patrol team right away, but it’ll take a little more time.

“Why of all people······.”

-Isn’t this a daily occurrence for Detective Kim? Why are you so upset today?

“No, send reinforcements as fast as you can. Okay?”

-Yes, I will send it as soon as possible.

Kim Han-gyeol finished the call and followed Shin Dae-seong.

It was a church with a large yard.

The mystery I had made at Christmas was still installed.

Shin Dae-seong walked cautiously to the three-story church building. Soon, he stopped for a moment at the glass door entrance and listened.

-Bang, bang, bang.

A threatening voice was heard, slamming something down.

‘Where is Lee Yeon-hwa? Bring her to me right now.’

The voice of a middle-aged man was also heard, trying to remain as calm as possible.

‘I don’t know. Even if I knew, I wouldn’t tell you. What kind of thing is this in the temple of God?’

‘I want to be like this too. My mom goes to church diligently too. She’s an elder.’

‘Get out of here right now.’

‘Lee Yeon-hwa, if you look for that girl, she won’t be here even if you tell her to? I won’t let her off easy because I’m a pastor. That’s why you have to tell me where that girl is!’

-Bam~

Kim Han-gyeol was putting his ear to Shin Dae-seong.

“I guess your goal is to find a woman named Lee Yeon-hwa.”

“Yeah, so 10 gangsters moved to find one woman.”

“Could it be that the gang boss’s woman ran away? You have to catch her no matter what.”

“Well, isn’t that a good thing? I won’t kill you.”

“No. What if it’s more dangerous? What if the gangster’s woman ran away because she had an affair? The angry gang boss might have ordered her to be brutally killed.”

“From what I hear from them, they haven’t caught him yet.”

“Yes.”

Kim Han-gyeol continued speaking with his ear glued to his ears.

“There’s still time. When the new police arrive, will you go inside the church?”

“I’m not as stubborn as some people. Now that we’ve confirmed that it’s not urgent, let’s do it.”

The two of them talked with their ears pressed against the church door.

“I’m really worried, so let’s try not to create any dangerous situations today.”

“I want to do that too, but will it work out the way we want?”

“If anything happens, I will take the lead. Detective Shin, please step forward when I cannot handle it.”

“Well, let’s do that.”

It was the moment when Shin Dae-seong immediately agreed.

‘Found it!’

The gangster’s voice was heard from upstairs.

Then a woman wearing a hat came down the stairs in a hurry.

-Dadadadadada.

She is not alone.

She was holding her little baby tightly in her arms.

She ran down the stairs and towards the door, but two other gangsters stopped her.

She turned around again and ran away, but was blocked again by the gangsters.

With her escape route blocked, she had no choice but to back away.

The gangster who had threatened the pastor approached her holding the baby.

“Isn’t that Lee Yeon-hwa?”

“No······.”

-sudden.

The gangster who threatened the pastor took off the hat that Lee Yeon-hwa was wearing.

“That’s right, but where did you get that?”

“Please pretend you didn’t see it. I beg you.”

“Are you kidding me? If we don’t take you, we’ll die. I’m the leader of the Baekdu faction and I’m doing this.”

“Yes, I will give you money. How much do you want?”

“How much can you give?”

Kim Han-gyeol spoke in a lowered voice.

‘This is totally a drama······.’

‘What drama?’

‘There is something like that.’

‘I’m going to fall back as Detective Kim asked. You know the baby’s safety is the most important thing, right?’

‘Don’t worry. That’s the most basic of basics. Besides, who would harm the boss’s son?’

‘Does Detective Kim think that woman is the Baekdupa boss’s woman?’

‘Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to explain the situation now.’

Lee Yeon-hwa made a final suggestion to the captain.

“1 billion is all I have. If you send it here, I will give you the cryptocurrency.”

“I don’t like it, but what can I do? I won’t risk my life for that much money.”

Lee Yeon-hwa, who was rejected, lowered her head as if she had given up······.

-puck!

Lee Yeon-hwa pushed the Baekdu gang leader away and ran away, but was immediately caught by the gangsters and said.

“Boss, what should we do?”

“This girl is no ordinary idiot······ Bury her in a quiet place with the baby.”

“What about the pastor here?”

“This matter must be kept under wraps. Bury the pastor as well.”

“All right.”

At that time, the gangsters were trying to harm Lee Yeon-hwa, the baby, and even the church pastor.

“Stop moving!”

-bang!

Kim Han-gyeol appeared, kicking open the door.

* * *

“!”

The Baekdu-pa members reacted with surprise for a moment.

However, the tension is relieved by the sight of only Kim Han-gyeol and Shin Dae-seong.

The Baekdupa leader asked with force in his eyes.

“Who are you guys?”

“Someone who catches little shits like you.”

“what?”

Immediately afterwards, Kim Han-gyeol handed over his police identification card.

“These are detectives from the Cold Case Task Force. You are all under arrest for attempted murder.”

But the Baekdupa leader was not flustered.

“A mere two of you are going to arrest us?”

“The special task force for unsolved cases is a hundred against one. In reality, there are 200 of us and only 10 of you. Do you think we can be a match for them?”

“What a funny cop.”

“Funny?”

Kim Han-gyeol looks genuinely angry.

“You think those bastards who would kill a baby and a pastor are funny? Bastards who would kill you by splashing you in shit water······.”

“Are you a detective who has lost your sense of humor? I think we would be afraid of the police or something. Let’s give it a try.”

-Ugh.

The boss nodded to his men.

A heavily built gangster stepped forward, flexing his neck muscles.

“Hey, Diler… Are you the guy who overworked earlier?”

“!”

“Did you wash your hands? Or didn’t you wash them?”

“I didn’t wash it, kid!”

-Boohoo!

A gangster with a large body threw a punch.

The destructive power felt enormous, but… it was slow. The moment Kim Han-gyeol stepped back to dodge,

Shin Dae-seong ran towards him and kicked him.

-Bam!

A powerful roundhouse kick struck the side of the head of the bulky gangster.

For a moment, the gangster’s heavy body seemed to freeze, but then he collapsed on the floor.

-Thud~

Lose your mind and remain faithful.

“Oh, sorry······ I told you not to interfere first······ You said you didn’t wash your hands. You’re dirty.”

“Well, you did well.”

Soon after, a gangster with a strong impression attacked Kim Han-gyeol. He seemed to have learned boxing and had a peculiar way of making sounds with his mouth.

“Whew! Whoosh, whoosh.”

Kim Han-gyeol bent his back to avoid his attack.

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo.”

A series of jabs followed by brisk footwork.

-Thud······Thud.

Kim Han-gyeol continued to allow his opponents to see him and failed to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

“petulance!”

Kim Han-gyeol swung his fist hard, but missed.

“Phew.”

-Pop!

Kim Han-gyeol’s nose turned red after being counterattacked.

“Hey, sir!”

Kim Han-gyeol tried to tackle, as if he thought it was absolutely impossible.

However, the gangster who anticipated this quickly dodged.

“Gotcha, kid!”

Kim Han-gyeol was also thinking about his opponent’s next move.

He grabbed the gangster’s sleeve with his left hand and punched him with his right.

-puck!

I priced the temple properly,

“Huh~”

The gangster with a tough look laughed out loud.

It was a reaction that was not at all shocking.

“Do you find my fist funny?”

-Thud, thud, thud, thud!

It was the same even if I swung my fists to the face repeatedly.

The gangster with a strong impression held on with his neck stiff.

“What the? This kid was a diamond incorruptible······.”

This is when Kim Han-gyeol loses his will to fight.

“Detective Kim, bow your head!”

Shin Dae-seong ran towards him and threw a long hook.

-Pfft!

The gangster who had been withstanding Kim Han-gyeol’s fist fell down and lost consciousness.

“You got it right this time.”

Then, Kim Han-gyeol glared at the Baekdu faction leader and said.

“A criminal can’t beat a detective. Why don’t you release the baby’s mother and turn yourself in?”

“I was wondering where I’ve seen you guys before… You’re the legendary detectives from the Cold Case Investigation Unit?”

“I said so from the beginning. Now that you know, surrender?”

“No······All of you, put your weapons on.”

The gangsters gathered, each holding a weapon.

There were also iron pipes, wooden sticks, and sharp knives used in sushi restaurants.

“Do you really have to go this far?”

“Take control!”

At the command of the Baekdupa chief, armed gangsters rushed in like moths to a flame.

* * *

The bloody fight that broke out in the church reached an end.

Kim Han-gyeol lay on his back and looked at the ceiling.

I was too tired to get up.

“Huk, huk, huk······ Sipa, the police support still hasn’t arrived······.”

Shin Dae-seong was also exhausted from the geological problems.

I held on with my mental strength and blew away the last of the thrushes.

-puck······.

No great force was exerted.

But the opponent was so tired that he immediately lay down.

Shin Dae-seong approached Lee Yeon-hwa almost as if he was waiting.

“Huh, huh······Are you okay?”

“Yes, I’m fine.”

“From now on, we will protect you and the baby at that time······. You just need to wait until the police you requested for support arrive.”

“sorry······.”

“?”

Shin Dae-seong thought he said thank you wrongly,

“Please take care of my daughter.”

Isn’t she just handing the baby over to Shin Dae-seong?

“I, I······.”

Shin Dae-seong, who reflexively holds the baby in his arms, has an expression of utter bewilderment.

I wanted to give the baby back to its mother, but I couldn’t move.

“My daughter’s name is ‘Jisoo.’ She hasn’t even been registered as a birth yet. I’ll definitely come pick her up… Please protect her, Detective Shin Dae-seong. Definitely!”

Soon she ran out of the church crying.

Shin Dae-seong, who was suddenly left in charge of a baby, was half-conscious.

It was the most embarrassing moment in his eventful life.
