The Legendary Detective Catches All the Criminals - Chapter 36



Only Noblemtl

◈Episode 36◈

Dragon and Tiger Fight

A giant supermarket with a dinosaur exhibition hall.

Detectives from the 3rd Violent Crimes Unit rushed into the control room.

“What is the situation now?”

Prosecutor Eunhyeok Cha of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office explained.

“It is confirmed that a child has been kidnapped. The woman carrying the bag on monitor number 3 is the mother. Her name is Kim Yeo-ju. Her daughter has been kidnapped and she has come to deliver the money.”

Team leader Park Dong-hee asked again.

“You said you identified two kidnapping suspects?”

“He’s the man in the hat on monitor number 1. We’re looking for the other one. He’s said to be of average height and wearing a black hat.”

“So you haven’t delivered the money yet?”

“The kidnappers are cautious. Since the life or death of the kidnapped Han Se-ah has not been confirmed, they cannot attack the suspects.”

“The best way is to tail the suspects and rescue the kidnapped child······.”

“The prosecution also said it would not spare its support.”

“Thank you. I will now take charge of the operation.”

Team leader Park Dong-hee immediately gave the order.

“This will be a joint operation between Gangnam 1st and Gangnam 2nd stations. Since this is a child kidnapping case, the National Police Agency will not spare any support.”

The longest-serving detective raised a question.

“Why is Gangnam 2-seo treated equally? It’s normal for Gangnam 1-seo to be patched up.”

“Our Violent Crimes Unit 3 was the first to recognize the incident and take action. And our Gangnam 2nd Police Station has a detective who specializes in child kidnapping cases.”

“Who is that?”

Team leader Park Dong-hee responded with a shrug.

“Who… Of course, it’s Senior Shin. He solved all ten kidnapping cases in the past without any sacrifice. At that time, whenever a kidnapping case occurred, Senior Shin was always called in.”

“But 20 years have passed. Do you still have that feeling?”

“It seems to me that you are sufficient. No, you seem to have become sharper than before. We are monitoring suspects inside the mart. Everyone except me sneaks into the exhibition hall······.”

“Team leader?”

The longest-serving detective interrupted.

“why?”

“There are dinosaurs fighting over there?”

“what?”

The oldest man’s words were true.

On the main screen of the control room, a Tyrannosaurus and a Triceratops are fighting.

Team Leader Park Dong-hee was also dumbfounded and looked on.

“Isn’t it really exciting? My kids love dinosaurs too. I hope Tyrannosaurus wins. Isn’t Tyrannosaurus the king of dinosaurs?”

Prosecutor Cha Eun-hyeok shook his head and responded.

“No······Triceratops is on our side right now.”

* * *

The scene of a real fight between dinosaurs.

Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops fought each other. The intensity was no less than that of the Cretaceous period. The two dinosaurs lived in the Cretaceous period, not the Jurassic period.

The children were excited without knowing English.

They split into two teams and had a heated cheering match.

“Beat Tyrannosaurus!”

“Beat the Triceratops!”

The fight between dinosaurs becomes more and more intense.

Eventually, the female manager in charge of the exhibition hall came running.

“Everyone stop!”

Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops, who had been fighting like in a monster movie, stopped moving at the same time.

“Wow~.”

The children gave a reverent exclamation.

As expected, humans are the rulers of the Earth.

There were also kids who tattled on the female manager.

“Tyrannosaurus cursed at Triceratops.”

“That’s right?”

“Follow me now!”

The Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops were dragged away by their human managers in a drooping state.

Area where entry is restricted to non-authorized personnel.

Tyrano was terrified at the manager’s chilling gaze.

“Are you crazy? You swear in front of the kids?”

The Tyranno Albasaeng took off his mask and protested as if he felt wronged.

“No, Manager? I did as you said. If I threatened you, you should run away, but that Tricera bastard keeps attacking you. It wasn’t in the script for Tyrannosaurus to get hit, was it?”

“Is that really a Triceratops?”

The Triceratops, which had been silent, took off its thick head model and came out······.

“Who, who are you?”

Shin Dae-seong showed his police identification card to the manager, whose eyes were wide open.

“We are detectives from Gangnam Police Station 2, Violent Crimes Unit 3.”

“Tongue, what are the detectives doing······.”

“I’ll tell you more later. This is an emergency situation, so all the dinosaurs here will be vaporized.”

“No, what crime did our dinosaurs commit?”

The dinosaur model part-timers were replaced with detectives from the violent crimes unit.

Shin Dae-seong asked Choi Jang-su while wiping away his sweat.

“What about Suspect 1?”

Choi Jang-su answered while handing the radio to Shin Dae-seong.

“I took advantage of the commotion to approach my mother. As soon as I got the bag, I started moving. Detective Seo was following me.”

“Okay······ Who are the rest of the suspects?”

“We haven’t found it yet. The detectives from Team 1 that came out to help us are working together to find it.”

“Let’s just watch the situation for now. We need to find Suspect 2 so we can move freely.”

“Okay, I’ll deploy the dinosaurs for now.”

The detectives in the dinosaur models headed to the exhibition hall.

Kim Han-gyeol is completely exhausted and drenched in sweat.

“Please give me some water······.”

“here.”

Shin Dae-seong handed over some bottled water.

“Thank you for your hard work, Detective Kim.”

“Why did you fight with Tyrannosaurus······.”

“To give Suspect 1 an opportunity to approach his mother.”

“Did you succeed?”

“Yeah, I’m moving after receiving the backpack with the money in it. Detectives Seo and Bang are following me.”

Kim Han-gyeol said, getting up.

“But what happened to stuntwoman Kang Yu-mi? Was it really Hwang Gil-dong who set up the bomb?”

“He said he never spoke to me.”

“Is it true?”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

“Then, was Chae Jeong-hwan joking? Or, did he believe the false information as truth?”

Shin Dae-seong nodded in agreement.

“What part of the information is incorrect?”

“Of course, Chae Jeong-hwan’s intuition is the problem. He couldn’t see Hwang Gil-dong’s face. He was certain it was Kang Yu-mi based on the feeling he got when he met her on set.”

“A natural con artist has a good memory and a keen eye. You can’t con the same person.”

“Is Kang Yu-mi a twin?”

“I checked······She’s an only child.”

“If it’s not a secret of birth, then what is it? Chae Jeong-hwan must have lied or mistaken her for another woman.”

It is a time when Shin Dae-seong is lost in thought.

-Suspect 1 met someone. Near the dinosaur fossil display.

This is detective Seo Min-ju’s radio message.

“What did the person you came into contact with look like?”

-He is a man about 170 cm tall and wears a black baseball cap.

“Who is the detective with Jaeseong?”

-Yes, I will.

This is the radio transmission from the youngest detective, Jinwoo Bang.

“Take Jaeseong quickly and check on him.”

-All right.

Shin Dae-seong and Kim Han-gyeol also headed to the place where dinosaur fossils were displayed.

-Suspect 2 is certain.

“The kidnapped child’s life or death is unknown. Just follow him so he doesn’t get caught. And there may be another accomplice.

-I will follow you carefully.

“Where are the two suspects moving to?”

-They’re headed toward the emergency stairs and have stopped. It looks like they’re arguing.

“Just in case, the detectives at the exhibition hall are preparing to make an arrest.”

It’s time for all the dinosaurs in the exhibition hall to nod their heads in unison.

-The argument is getting really intense. Oh my, Suspect 2 stabbed Suspect 1!

“Emergency deployment! Arrest them both!”

The detectives jumped out of the dinosaur, and Shin Dae-seong and Kim Han-gyeol also started running.

“Kaaaak~!”

A scene where loud screams erupt.

Shin Dae-seong shouted at Detective Seo Mi-ju, who was administering emergency treatment to Suspect 1.

“Leave this to me and Detective Kim, and make sure to capture the escaped suspect 2 alive!”

“All right!”

Shin Dae-seong quickly took off his top to stop the bleeding and checked the condition of suspect 1.

“Detective Shin, you’re really skilled, aren’t you?”

“I also have an emergency medical technician certificate. I even worked as a doctor in prison······.”

“Can we save this guy?”

“it’s hard.”

“yes?”

“You were stabbed in the right spot. You’ll die before you get to the hospital… Here, press firmly on the wound.”

“All right.”

Kim Han-gyeol pressed hard on suspect 1’s wound.

Shin Dae-seong tried to talk to suspect 1, who was losing consciousness.

“Hey? Hey?”

“big······.”

Suspect 1 was not in good condition. He was breathing roughly with his mouth half open.

“Where is Han Se-ah now? The child you kidnapped. You wanted to release Se-ah since you safely received the money. But your colleague didn’t have that kind of intention.”

“Ugh, ugh. Ugh······.”

Suspect 1 looked at Shin Dae-seong while breathing heavily.

Shin Dae-seong said, holding his hand tightly.

“You want to save Sea? Where is Sea now? Just tell me and everything will fall into place.”

Suspect 1 opened his mouth with difficulty.

“Three, Se-ah is now······ Huh!”

“Hey, wake up and tell me. You can do it.”

“Three, Se-ah······!”

Suspect 1 opened his eyes wide. The hand holding Shin Dae-seong was trembling and the pain was transmitted. He tried to tell me where Han Se-ah was locked up, no matter what······.

-Phew.

He finally lowered his head, unable to speak.

“shit!”

Shin Dae-seong attempted CPR.

He pressed against my chest, covered my lips, and even blew air into me.

Kim Han-gyeol dissuaded him in a small voice.

‘I understand that you feel sorry, but he is already dead. CPR is meaningless.’

Shin Dae-seong answered without stopping CPR.

‘I know, but this guy has to live······.’

‘yes?’

‘There must be an accomplice with Sea. He must be arrested alive. The accomplice must not know that this guy is dead.’

“!”

Kim Han-gyeol also noticed Shin Dae-seong’s intentions.

“I will try to save you!”

He tried frantically to perform CPR.

-Thump th ….

A bright smile spread across Kim Han-gyeol’s face as he worked hard to press his chest.

“I’m alive! I’m barely breathing.”

Kim Han-gyeol even shared a deep hug with Shin Dae-seong. The audience applauded his performance with all his heart.

Soon after, Team Leader Park Dong-hee arrived with the emergency team.

Shin Dae-seong quickly relayed the warning.

“Team Leader Park, this guy has to stay alive no matter what. You understand?”

“Yes, I know what you mean.”

The paramedics also moved the dead suspect 1 as if he were alive.

“Have you arrested suspect 2?”

“We are still chasing.”

“What are you talking about? How many people are deployed here?”

“Suspect 2 is no ordinary guy. You can’t just shoot him and take him down.”

“Wow, look at that!”

Shin Dae-seong turned his head to where the onlookers were waving.

Suspect 2 climbed up the structure of the dinosaur exhibition hall. It was a dangerous structure that stretched all the way to the ceiling. The detectives who were chasing him did not dare to chase after him.

Kim Han-gyeol looked at him in bewilderment.

“That kid, he’s totally Tarzan?”

“That guy must be captured no matter what.”

“Is capture a problem now? He has planned his escape thoroughly. I don’t know how he will escape once he gets out of the dome-shaped ceiling.”

“I’m worried about that too······.”

This is also a time when Shin Dae-seong is concerned about suspect 2’s escape.

“Wow~ The girl is following along too.”

Stuntwoman Kang Yu-mi began climbing the structure, and her speed was no easy feat.

A voice of admiration burst out of Kim Han-gyeol’s mouth.

“It’s a real dragon and tiger showdown!”
