#29

Lee Jae-hyun looked at Song A-ram, who was sitting across from him.

As she began to explain, she was moving her lips and seemed to be struggling with what to say.

Lee Jae-hyun waited calmly until Song A-ram spoke.

Within moments, she took a deep breath, exhaled, and opened her mouth.

“I still remember it vividly. The day of the accident, that week was my birthday.”

Song A-ram began to explain, swishing the latte on the table with a straw.

A calm voice mixed with the soft singing of the cafe flowed into Jaehyun Lee’s ears.

“My dad bought me the latest smartphone that came out a while ago as a birthday present. It was the first smartphone I’ve ever used since I started middle school, so I played with it all day.”

Jaehyun Lee sat quietly and listened to what she had to say.

Asking her about this and that for no reason will only burden her.

Here, just listening quietly would be a good way to get Song A-ram to talk.

As Lee Jae-hyun remained silent, she continued speaking.

“It was the same on the day of the incident. I was secretly using my smartphone in the early morning, and I remembered that the camera was good, so I was taking pictures of the night sky in my room. Then a car came.”

He flinched at Song Aram’s words.

If it’s a car in the early morning hours, it’s Park Chun-beom’s car.

Lee Jae-hyun leaned forward and listened more closely to what she said.

“Because it was a neighborhood with a lot of outsiders, it wasn’t strange for cars to come and go… I ignored it and continued taking pictures of the sky. Then, all of a sudden, I heard a loud bang.”

Song A-ram, who said that, took a sip of her latte, her throat burning with tension.

She put down her coffee cup, took a moment to catch her breath, and then continued speaking.

“I looked down in surprise at the sound, and saw the car had hit the guardrail and a person getting out of the driver’s seat.”

Lee Jae-hyun’s eyes lit up at Song A-ram’s words.

This is Park Chun-beom.

It’s clear from the fact that he got out of the driver’s seat.

Lee Jae-hyun swallowed nervously, and Song A-ram continued speaking.

“I, before, didn’t know why people take pictures when an accident happens? But then I realized. Something I’ve never seen before happens right before my eyes… so I just naturally took pictures.”

Lee Jae-hyun nodded, understanding her feelings.

Once the driver gets out, there’s no need to worry about reporting it.

As Song Aram said, aren’t all people like that?

When an accident happens, half of the people who are left are just watching, half of the people who are left are taking pictures, and the other half are just watching.

The person who reports is considered as one-eighth of the remaining.

Even that is when the person involved in the accident has collapsed and is unconscious.

Most traffic accidents happen because people just watch and pass by.

As expected, the same words came out of Song Aram’s mouth.

“When I looked at it, the driver seemed okay. I thought I didn’t need to report it. I was so excited that I quickly took pictures and tried to send them to my friends…….”

“Did you do it?”

“The moment I took the picture, the man who got out of the driver’s seat seemed to be looking this way. So I hid because I thought he was peeking at me. But in the meantime, a car, a car…….”

Song A-ram, who had said that, seemed to recall that time, and hung her head deeply, unable to continue speaking.

Lee Jae-hyun, who saw her hands trembling, held Song A-ram’s hand tightly.

“It’s okay. Take your time… Take a deep breath.”

When Jaehyun Lee said that, she flinched for a moment and slowly took a deep breath.

Soon, Song A-ram took a couple of deep breaths, calmed down a bit, and began to speak again slowly, shaking off her trembling body.

“The car fell over, and the 119 and police cars were coming, and my heart was pounding so hard… I pretended to be asleep because I thought my dad would get in trouble if he found out I was on my smartphone at that time. But they said that two people fell and only one survived. They said that only the driver survived, but I clearly saw someone get out of the driver’s seat….”

She said that with a trembling voice.

“But I was so scared. People around me kept saying I was unlucky, that I had bad luck, and that business wasn’t going well at the store, so my father had a gloomy expression. And… more than anything, I couldn’t forget the look in the man’s eyes as he looked back at me. But I made up my mind a few times. Oh, I made up my mind to definitely go to the police station and tell them tomorrow….”

Song Aram started to sob a little as she said that.

At the end, he continued speaking with tears streaming down his face.

“As time went by, I felt like the police would ask me why I brought this up now… Even when I got to the police station, it felt like that person was staring at me… So I couldn’t do anything. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

She finished her speech with a huff.

Lee Jae-hyun opened his mouth and handed her a tissue as she cried profusely.

“No. Thank you so much for telling me now.”

As he said that, he patted Song Aram’s shoulder as she wiped away her tears.

It’s not her fault.

Absolutely, it can’t be Song Aram’s fault.

It is the criminal’s fault for committing the crime, so how can you say the witness is at fault?

It is the job of the police to gain confidence in witnesses who witness a crime and are terrified by it, and to obtain testimony.

Since the police failed to inspire trust, that part must be the police’s own shortcomings.

Lee Jae-hyun exhales.

He patted Song Aram on the shoulder and waited for her to calm down for a while.

He opened his mouth, looking at Song Aram, whose trembling seemed to have subsided a little.

“Do you still have the photos you took back then?”

“Yes, I have it. I’ll send it to you right away.”

She nodded immediately, then tapped her finger on her phone while looking at the number written on the business card Jaehyun Lee had given her.

Jiying.

Soon, Lee Jae-hyun’s cell phone vibrated.

When Jaehyun Lee checked his phone, he saw several photos that had been sent as text messages.

Photo of a car crashing into a guardrail in the dark of dawn.

and…….

A photo shows a man getting out of an open driver’s door, and another photo shows the man looking around.

Although the photo was dark and far away, the image quality was quite good, perhaps because it was taken with the latest smartphone at the time.

Anyone who knows Park Chun-beom’s appearance will be able to recognize him easily.

‘At this point… … it’s overflowing.’

It’s not that Park Chun-beom’s face needs to be revealed exactly.

The time and place the photo was taken are saved in the photo.

Photos also provide a lot of information.

No, photos actually provide a lot of information.

The location, the car model, and even the type of damage the vehicle sustained.

Above all, the only accident that has occurred in the location photographed in recent years is Park Chun-beom’s.

To this extent, it was evidence that Park Chun-beom would never be able to escape.

Park Dae-hyung frowned and sniffed as he looked at Park Chun-beom, who was sitting on one side of the police station.

Somehow, I have a strong feeling.

An unpleasant feeling I often felt when I was a member of the detective team.

‘Tch, you still haven’t come to your senses after all that happened.’

He clicked his tongue as he found himself feeling a ‘gut feeling’.

Kim Jun-ho quietly approached Park Dae-hyung.

“Oh my, Officer Park. Why are you making such a scary face? Everyone who comes to the police station will be so scared that they’ll run away.”

“……what’s the matter?”

Kim Jun-ho jokes as always with a sly attitude.

When Park Dae-hyung looks back at him and asks, Kim Jun-ho shrugs his shoulders.

“No, just, we can’t keep that guy around forever. Our youngest has to come up with something. Hasn’t he contacted you?”

“Yeah, not yet.”

Park Dae-hyung nodded and answered.

It’s been quite some time since Lee Jae-hyun went to Incheon, but there’s still no contact.

Even if there is suspicion of a crime, we cannot keep them in the police station forever… … .

Now, we must slowly release Park Chun-beom.

In fact, what we have up until now is more like Park Dae-hyung forcibly holding on to it by making all sorts of excuses.

‘When are you coming?’

Park Dae-hyung frowned and shook his leg.

Knock knock knock.

His feet hit the floor, making a sound.

Kim Jun-ho looked at Park Dae-hyung with a surprised expression.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

He felt gazes at him and glanced at Kim Jun-ho and asked.

In response to Park Dae-hyung’s question, Kim Jun-ho shrugged his shoulders, pointed to Park Chun-beom with his chin, and opened his mouth.

“It’s a bit surprising. Honestly, based on what’s been revealed so far, I don’t think there’s anything more to that gentleman. Honestly, I think I’ve dug up as much as I can. Isn’t it that the youngest is mistaken?”

“Um… that’s true.”

It’s not like Park Dae-hyung left everything to Lee Jae-hyun.

After sending Lee Jae-hyun to Incheon, he tried to persuade him, scare him, and ask him all sorts of questions, but he couldn’t find anything suspicious about Park Chun-beom.

If there’s one thing that bothers me… … it’s that damn ‘feeling’.

‘No, you shouldn’t rely on that kind of thing.’

Park Dae-hyung shook his head as he thought about it, but… … .

Honestly, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was bothering him when he saw Park Chun-beom.

Park Dae-hyung glanced at the time hanging on the wall of the police station, then looked back at Kim Jun-ho and opened his mouth.

“Five minutes. Let’s just wait five more minutes.”

“I will follow your orders.”

Kim Jun-ho responded to his words by playfully saluting.

Tick ​​tock.

The short five minutes passed by quickly.

“Detective Park.”

“Huh… I guess there’s nothing I can do. Should I go and release it…?”

It was at that moment that Park Dae-hyung was about to ask for Park Chun-beom to be released.

Jiiing.

The cell phone in his pocket vibrated.

Park Dae-hyung immediately took out his cell phone and checked it, and there was a text message from Lee Jae-hyun.

And soon… … Park Dae-hyung burst into laughter after checking the contents of the text.

“Hahahaha!”

“What is it? Are you the youngest?”

“Wisdom. Look at this.”

Kim Jun-ho, who did not know English, tilted his head next to him.

Park Dae-hyung called Min Ji-hye, who was handling other work, and handed her his cell phone.

Min Ji-hye tilted her head, but then accepted the cell phone he offered her and checked the screen.

What she sees in her eyes are a few pictures.

“This is…….”

Since it was Min Ji-hye who investigated and organized Park Chun-beom’s personal information, it was impossible for her not to know.

A photo related to the accident that Park Chun-beom claimed was a traffic accident five years ago.

Min Ji-hye realized the fact as soon as she looked at her phone screen and opened her mouth with a bewildered expression.

“The youngest caught another murderer.”

She muttered like that and gave me a strange look.
