#Episode 63
Choi Max-hyun’s mother, Kim Ga-eun, held her head in the car.
As if anxious, his eyes were wandering, not knowing where to go.
My legs are shaking sweetly.
Normally, this would be the time when the child would finish school and come home, eat a snack together, and chat.
But I didn’t know that my peaceful daily life would be shattered.
‘Is Daehyun okay?’
Choi Ga-eun lifted her smartphone, checked the screen, and thought to herself.
This is a picture taken with my family.
On the screen, Daehyun was looking at himself with a bright smile.
Her heart broke when she saw it.
‘I wish I had listened to Daehyun a little more.’
She recalls the past as she taps the screen of her smartphone to keep it from turning off.
Before he went missing, Daehyun ran to him and said this.
-Mom! I met a policeman in front of here.
-Police officer?
-Yeah. Daehyun told me to listen to his mom!
At that time, I passed over the matter lightly.
I figured the police must have spoken to the reckless child and let it slide.
The next day, Daehyun didn’t come home at the usual time.
I thought I was a little late because I was hanging out with friends.
But as I thought about it for a moment, a strange thought began to linger in my head.
The child she gave birth to and raised was not a child who would come home late.
And then the memory of the day before suddenly passes by.
The part where the police talk to him.
There were a few odd things about that part. One was that the police knew Dae-hyun’s name.
It’s not like he’s a stalker, so it’s not common for him to call someone by their name naturally.
Besides, the author, the police officer, was not a trustworthy person.
They may be real police officers, but they could easily be fooled by just changing their words a little.
‘I should have noticed it then.’
A big teardrop falls down onto the smartphone.
Blood relatives. Closest to me than anyone else.
Because you don’t listen to the words of your child who is your everything.
Daehyun is in danger.
I reported her missing too late.
To the ‘real’ police, not just those who call themselves police.
I got a call from my kidnapper and I haven’t been able to stay sane since.
Where in the world would you find a mother who is okay when her son is kidnapped?
The child’s father wanted to talk to the kidnapper first, but he had already reported her missing to the police.
In the end, they decided that there was nothing they could do, so they went to the police and filed a formal kidnapping report… … .
‘Our Daehyun… … is it possible to save him?’
Ga-eun looked around carefully.
I see plainclothes police officers wandering around.
It was inevitable that I would feel uneasy while looking at that sight.
It’s not that they don’t work hard.
That doesn’t mean we’ve confirmed that the child is safe.
Isn’t this a situation where nothing has been resolved?
I feel suffocated. It feels like a big rock is stuck in my chest and weighing me down.
Even though I knew that all I could do was believe and watch, I felt like I was going crazy just watching.
Toururur―
It was at a time when I was spending time with such anxiety.
Ga-eun’s smartphone started ringing loudly.
Ga-eun flinches at the sudden ringing of a phone call and slowly reaches out for her smartphone.
When I checked, I saw a phrase that said “restrict caller ID display” instead of a saved number.
It could be simple spam, but what if it’s a call from a kidnapper?
She held the smartphone with trembling hands and carefully pressed the call button.
-Do you think I’m funny?
A thick, adult male voice.
It was just one word, but Ga-eun’s face turned pale when she heard it.
It’s him. The one who kidnapped his precious son.
Ga-eun wanted to scream at any moment, demanding that her son be returned to her, but she tried to suppress the emotions that were welling up inside her as she opened her mouth.
“What do you mean…?”
-I clearly told you not to bring the police. Did you think I wouldn’t notice if you dressed in plain clothes?
A faint voice echoes through the car.
Ga-eun looked around, her body trembling.
Is it obvious that you’re a cop?
How did you know?
No, that’s not the point.
The kidnapper is currently with the child, and the child’s safety is at risk since he was caught reporting it to the police…
As I continued thinking like that, a voice came over the phone.
―You still seem to lack self-awareness. Are you so incapable of judging the situation? Your son’s life is in my hands!
Ga-eun’s shoulders droop greatly at the criminal’s words.
Nothing else came to mind.
All that’s on my mind is the guilt and fear that my son might die because of my wrong choice.
“I was wrong. I was wrong. I was wrong…….”
―Ha. They said they’d let him go if I just gave them money, but is that really that hard? Do you want to see a child get killed?
“No. No.”
―I tried not to make a fuss, but if you act so uncooperatively, I don’t know what to do. You know?
At the criminal’s words, Ga-eun put down her cell phone as if it were a sacred item and waved her hand.
Tears are flowing from my eyes.
All I can say is, I was wrong.
– This is your last chance. Take the bag of money, leave the scene, and call this number. Otherwise, you will meet your son as a dead body.
The kidnapper replied in an annoyed voice and hung up the phone.
Ga-eun looked at the disconnected phone and said thank you.
Then he wipes away his tears and rolls down the window.
Outside, the child’s father, Choi Min-hyeok, was wandering around, looking around, worried about Ga-eun.
“honey.”
“huh?”
At Ga-eun’s voice, Choi Min-hyeok turns his head as if asking what’s going on and approaches the car.
“He just called me.”
“What? To the kidnapper?”
For a moment, a look of considerable bewilderment appeared in Choi Min-hyeok’s eyes.
That makes sense, because up until now, the kidnapper’s calls came to Minhyuk’s smartphone.
But when he said he got a call from Ga-eun on her smartphone, he couldn’t help but be quite flustered.
“Yeah. But he asked us why we brought the police here… and told us to bring the bag of money out right now….”
Ga-eun says, shedding tears.
Although the words could not even be pronounced properly, the emotions were conveyed vividly.
Anxiety, worry, fear… … .
Minhyuk Choi reached out to her and handed her a handkerchief.
“Calm down first.”
“I’m serious right now! That guy. Daehyun said he’d kill me. He said if you don’t want to meet him as a corpse, follow his orders right now.”
Ga-eun responds to Min-hyeok’s words in a voice filled with evil.
It’s up to my son.
Even people who don’t usually get excited easily can’t help but get excited in this situation.
Minhyuk Choi seemed to understand and took her hand.
“Let’s do as he demands. I’ll put the money bag in the bathroom. You get out right away.”
“huh…….”
Ga-eun answered, wiping her tears with the handkerchief that Choi Min-hyeok handed her.
I was scared and afraid, but I tried hard to suppress those feelings.
Choi Min-hyuk tells her to wait a moment and then walks off somewhere.
In the end, what he wants is money.

With the vague hope that if only they could give him money, his peaceful daily life would return.
Ga-eun, left alone in the car, wiped away all of her tears and tried to calm her emotions as much as possible.
The only people a child can rely on are his parents.
But if the parents are trembling, who can the child rely on?
It was when I was suppressing my emotions like that.
Click—
The car door opens and Choi Min-hyuk appears holding a bag filled with money.
He seemed to have come running in a hurry, and even though he was out of breath, he seemed worried about Ga-eun.
“Here. The money bag. You go right away. I’ll cover it with my body.”
“Yeah……. Sorry for getting mad earlier…….”
“Okay. Daehyun comes first right now.”
Ga-eun felt tears welling up in her eyes again at Choi Min-hyeok’s words, but she tried to swallow them back.
Yeah, he’s right.
Now is not the time to apologize or make peace.
Isn’t your precious son waiting in the hands of a kidnapper?
Boo-
Ga-eun, who started the car, slowly steps on the accelerator.
Minhyuk Choi awkwardly covers her moving car with his body.
“Uh, if you go now……”
That too for a moment.
The police who saw Ga-eun’s car moving tried to stop her, but Choi Min-hyuk blocked them with his body.
Then he nods with his chin, indicating for them to hurry up and go.
Ga-eun, who saw that, grabbed the steering wheel, turned it around, and stepped on the accelerator.
I could hear the police shouting something behind me, but I ignored it.
This is inevitable.
The police came to investigate, but the bastard already knew the situation.
Given his temper, this was the only option she had.
Sorry to the police… … .
No, I’m not sorry. They’re not my family. This is the best I can do to save my son.
The car’s exhaust sound runs on the black asphalt, belching black smoke.
Kim Ga-eun fumbled with her hands to find her smartphone and dial the kidnapper’s phone number.
Toururur―
After a long beep.
-okay.
He picked up the phone again.
* * *
At the urgent voice coming from the walkie-talkie, Lee Jae-hyun immediately turned to Team Leader Oh Min-seok.
“Report the situation quickly.”
-Kim Ga-eun ran away with a bag of money.
“Where’s the baby’s father?”
―We blocked the rest area exit with one of our vehicles… … . Sir! Get out quickly!
A frantic scream is heard.
A situation where communication is virtually impossible.
“shit…….”
Team Leader Oh Min-seok cursed quietly as he listened to the urgent situation over the radio.
Things got messed up.
It was expected that Koh Hyun-sook and Park Ye-chan might not be at the rest stop, and it was also expected that they might tell them to just leave the bag of money behind.
The child’s mother running away with the bag of money was something he was not prepared for.
It’s not rational, and there may naturally be some friction with the police.
But, both parents moving at the same time, one to stop the police and one to run away… … . It’s something no one could easily have predicted.
Lee Jae-hyun also thought that Go Hyun-sook and Park Ye-chan would use the child’s parents, but he did not expect that the child’s parents would act this way.
Of course, if it were normal, I would have been able to respond right away.
He would have quickly chased down the child’s mother and tried to persuade her verbally as best as he could.
But now, I got a text from the kidnapper, and all my attention was focused on him.
It is only natural that the detective team should take the lead and be the first to try to catch the kidnapper.
As for the part about the child’s parents, the support team should have paid a little more attention…
‘Once something happens, there’s nothing that can be done.’
There was no need to determine whose fault it was or who was responsible.
What matters now is that the child’s mother is running away.
And of course, it would be to save the child.
He must have received instructions from the criminal, and if he follows the child’s mother, he will be able to get to the criminal.
But that may or may not be the right answer.
The kidnapper may change the transaction location again or deceive the child’s mother.
‘It’s not about catching it.’
Right now, catching Park Ye-chan or Ko Hyun-sook was not the top priority.
It’s something that needs to be done, and chasing the child’s mother will help.
The rest area exit is blocked, and pursuing them right away may be difficult.
So the method is… … .
‘Sergen, I have a favor to ask.’
“Are you the child’s mother?”
‘Yeah, do you know where the other cops are?’
“Okay, I’ll just follow you for now… and if I see anything that looks tasty, I’ll tell you.”
Serhen nods his head once and disappears again.
The child went to chase after his mother.
It may not solve anything right away, but it is still a relief for now.
If by any chance the child’s mother were to meet Park Ye-chan or Go Hyeon-suk, she would be able to find out right away.
“Team leader.”
“Uh huh.”
“For now, I’ll ask the other support team to chase after the child’s mother, and we’ll have to move separately. Catching the kidnapper is also important…….”
“The child comes first.”
“yes.”
Child kidnapping case.
The essence is not the kidnapper who committed the ‘kidnapping’.
It’s a ‘child’.
The child’s safety is the top priority… … .
It is something whose essence must not be forgotten.
Originally, I was planning to lure the guy with a bag of money, catch him, and save the child.
Once Choi Ga-eun, the child’s mother, took action, the situation changed completely.
From the police, who were supposed to wait for the guy to come in and catch him, to the guy.
The situation has changed again.
Jaehyun Lee, who was quickly thinking, hesitated for a moment.
“Park Ye-chan emphasized in the last call that she was alone, so she probably doesn’t want to expose Ko Hyun-sook.”
“Of course, they wouldn’t know that both of their identities had already been secured in the first place.”
“Then the one who takes the initiative will be Park Ye-chan… In that situation, she won’t be able to drag the child along by herself.”
“The child will be with Koh Hyun-sook?”
“Yes, if the child’s mother takes the money bag, she will go straight there or take a detour. She will meet Park Ye-chan.”
“then…….”
“We have to find Koh Hyun-sook.”
I don’t know where Park Ye-chan is.
But at least I felt like I knew where the child was.
The place where the child died in the past life.
And the place where Park Ye-chan fought with the police and drank pesticide for the last time.
“I was originally from Icheon, and I own a farm, so I guess…….”
“There’s a good chance there’s a child there.”
“Maybe.”
Lee Jae-hyun nodded.
Team leader Oh Min-seok opened his mouth to Lee Jae-hyun with a stern expression.
“What are you doing? Step on it.”
“yes.”
Please, please, I hope it’s not too late.
Lee Jae-hyun stepped on the accelerator while muttering to himself.
