#Episode 72

Police officer, Jaehyun Lee.

In his past life, Lee Jae-hyun naturally went through the police service.

But in this life, I reached the rank of sergeant much faster than in my last life.

Is it because of that?

There were many jokes going around inside the police station.

“But, if the youngest and Junho have the same rank… what happens?”

“What happens? The youngest is the youngest.”

Kim Jun-ho blurted out something as Park Dae-hyung smiled faintly.

Lee Jae-hyun was promoted one rank, putting him in the same rank as Kim Jun-ho.

Of course, the pay grades are different, and obviously, Jaehyun Lee is the youngest.

Both Park Dae-hyung and Kim Jun-ho know that.

That’s why Park Dae-hyung is also teasing them comfortably, and Kim Jun-ho is also accepting it without difficulty.

“But since they’re the same rank, shouldn’t the youngest one also call him Junho comfortably?”

“Ehehe! Really, no, Officer Park.”

“huh?”

“If the youngest continues to achieve the results he is currently achieving, he will be promoted to the rank of superintendent in no time. What are you planning to do then?”

“So, what is the youngest rank now?”

“……It’s a police officer.”

“It’s still a long way to go.”

Park Dae-hyung said with a pleasant expression on his face.

In the end, Kim Jun-ho shook his head and said, “Oh my.”

They both knew it was a joke, and all four teams knew the conversation was essentially meaningless.

Literally, ‘a pointless conversation’.

The four teams have been peaceful for the past few days.

Perhaps it was because of recent achievements, but there was an instruction from Gyeonggi Northern Police Agency Chief Jeong Seon-bin, whom I met at the last appointment ceremony.

An order was issued to all four teams to take special leave.

‘They even give you paid vacation.’

Lee Jae-hyun raises the corners of his mouth.

In the end, the four teams were able to take turns taking ‘paid’ vacations.

We took turns taking a week off and came back after a good rest.

Thanks to that, everyone’s condition was good, and no major incidents occurred during that time, so each day passed by somehow.

Daughter.

In the midst of the pointless conversation, a clear bell rings.

Those who had been talking simultaneously shut their mouths and turned their gaze towards the main gate.

And there, familiar people were cautiously entering.

“hello…….”

The little boy was the first to bow his head and say hello.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Choi Dae-hyun, the victim of a recent child kidnapping incident.

The child visited Hansung Police Station with his parents.

Choi Max-hyun’s parents also greeted the police officers.

They were busy bowing their heads and saying, ‘Thank you’ again and again.

The child’s mother also looks calm, unlike when she ran away from the police.

Well, they managed to rescue the child and catch all the criminals who had threatened them.

It’s strange if you’re still afraid.

“Professor Lee Jae-hyun.”

After walking around the police station for a while, exchanging greetings, they quickly approached Jaehyun Lee as soon as they found him.

The child’s father opened his mouth while shaking Jaehyun Lee’s hand.

“Teacher, I was so flustered at the time that I couldn’t even thank you properly.”

“No, I have received your thanks sufficiently.”

Where would be a parent who would make rational decisions in a situation where their child is sleeping as if dead?

And, he said that he couldn’t properly thank me because he was so busy.

At the time, the child’s father instinctively went around thanking all the police officers around him.

“Thanks to you, teacher, my child was able to… be safe. I am truly, truly grateful.”

The child’s father said, grabbing Jaehyun Lee’s hand.

Choi Min-hyeok’s power was at its peak more than ever.

To parents, children are so precious that they are called another heart.

If the moment of choice comes, something that is so precious that you would give up your life for it.

The young man in front of me saved that child.

I can’t even begin to imagine how happy I would be.

Lee Jae-hyun smiled awkwardly and nodded.

“Yes, that’s… fortunately.”

“We have prepared a small token of our appreciation.”

The child’s father speaks while still holding Jaehyun Lee’s hand.

He turned to the child’s mother and gestured.

The child’s mother, Kim Ga-eun, held out the shopping bag she was holding in her hand toward Lee Jae-hyun.

Only then did the child’s father let go of Jaehyun Lee’s hand and let him take the shopping bag.

“No, it’s okay, Father. I did what I had to do, so why are you giving me a present…….”

Lee Jae-hyun, who saw it, waved his hand and said it was okay.

“I really hope you accept it. I think of it as the price of my son’s life…….”

“…….”

The child’s father, Choi Min-hyeok, was firm in his decision.

He forced a shopping bag into Jaehyun Lee’s hand.

Lee Jae-hyun said that it was really okay and eventually accepted it.

If the child’s parents ask for it, even saying that it is the ‘price of life’, who would not accept it?

Lee Jae-hyun eventually had no choice but to hesitate and carefully accept the shopping bag.

“Open it quickly. You may like it.”

The child’s father gestured for her to open it.

The four team members around him also gathered around and looked at him as if they were curious about what was going on.

‘What on earth have you prepared?’

Seeing that there’s even a shopping bag, it’s clear that something is not normal.

Just looking at it from the outside, I had no idea what was inside.

Jaehyun Lee carefully took out a box from the shopping bag.

At first glance, the box is packaged luxuriously.

And the logo written on the box was… … familiar to Lee Jae-hyun as well.

‘This is… … .’

Lee Jae-hyun looks surprised when he sees the brand name written beautifully on the outside of the luxurious box.

Watch brand, ‘Alpha’.

A brand famous for the watch worn by James Bond in 007.

Each watch costs at least several million won.

“This is too much. I really can’t take it.”

Lee Jae-hyun immediately raised his head and said to the child’s father.

No, in this day and age, you get paid at least a few million won for a watch.

If you receive it, you are definitely against the law… … .

‘uh?’

Come to think of it, it’s 10 years ago now since Lee Jae-hyun was alive.

And ‘that law’ was implemented… … 6 or 7 years ago.

That means it will be implemented at least 3 to 4 years from now.

‘Huh…? Can I take this?’

Jaehyun Lee blinked and looked down at the watch box in front of him.

A box containing a watch worth millions of won, equivalent to the price of gold, was in Jaehyun’s hands.

Many thoughts were crossing Lee Jae-hyun’s mind as he looked at it.

After a moment, he looked up again and saw the child’s parents looking at Jaehyun Lee as if asking him to please accept them.

“Thank you for saving me, sir.”

Choi Max-hyun bows and lowers his head once again to express his gratitude.

I couldn’t help but accept this.

It was inevitable.

I saved a child who was more precious than life.

It brought peace back to a family.

How can you refuse a gift that they give you voluntarily, as a token of their gratitude, not under compulsion?

‘In the past, I would have refused.’

If it were my past life, I would have rejected something like this outright.

Not now, is it?

Lee Jae-hyun smiled gently and reached out to stroke Choi Dae-hyun’s head.

“From now on, you have to listen to Mom and Dad well.”

“yes!”

Daehyun answers forcefully.

At the same time, smiles appeared on the faces of the child’s parents, Choi Myeon-hyeok and Kim Ga-eun, who were watching it.

Because they realized that his actions were an attempt to receive the gift they had prepared.

And Lee Jae-hyun’s face was shining even brighter than that.

* * *

Tick ​​tock.

The small sound of a clock ticking that you have to listen really carefully to hear.

Lee Jae-hyun raised the corners of his mouth as he heard that pleasant sound.

“Good, our youngest.”

“Yes, that’s good.”

To Kim Jun-ho’s words, Lee Jae-hyun nodded immediately and answered.

It was a watch I never thought I would ever wear in my past life.

To begin with, expensive watches don’t really fit with detectives who have to run around and roll around in the field…

It’s also because the salary is low.

Well, the latter would probably carry much more weight.

Anyway, Jaehyun Lee was a man before he became a police officer.

And aren’t all men… … beings obsessed with watches and cars?

‘Who the hell is that guy? He’s so good.’

Lee Jae-hyun fiddled with the watch on his wrist.

It was so intricately made that even each hand looked beautiful.

The watch on Lee Jae-hyun’s wrist was worth a whopping 8 million won, close to 9 million won.

A watch that would cost several months’ worth of Lee Jae-hyun’s salary to buy.

I got it as a gift.

‘I wasn’t asked to do it, you know.’

Lee Jae-hyun thought while caressing his watch.

Of course, if it was the price of some kind of deal, Lee Jae-hyun would have refused.

Corruption, favoritism.

This is the type that Lee Jae-hyun hates the most.

After all, no matter what excuse you use, you’re still dealing with criminals.

But as a token of gratitude for saving the kidnapped child… … if it comes from the child’s parents.

If it doesn’t even violate the law, you can get it.

“I’ll work hard and earn some money and buy a watch.”

“You too, try to work hard to save people like the youngest one.”

“Oh, my, I know my place. If I try to keep up with the youngest, my legs will tear.”

“……That’s true.”

Park Dae-hyung nods in agreement with Kim Jun-ho’s words.

Lee Jae-hyun listened to their conversation and chuckled.

It’s been a few days since Choi Max-hyun’s parents gave him a watch as a gift.

The daily routine was repeating itself.

The drunks were still there, and there were traffic accidents reported, etc…

Literally, it was routine.

That’s how I spent my evening.

Woohoo.

Lee Jae-hyun’s smartphone rang.

Jaehyun Lee, who was looking at the computer, checked the caller.

He soon tilted his head.

The words ‘Detective Oh Seo-hyeon’ were floating on the smartphone screen.

I haven’t heard from you since I finished investigating the witnesses related to school violence in the Song A-ram incident last time… What happened after such a long time?

“Yes, hello?”

– Officer Lee Jae-hyun? Oh, no, I heard that you were promoted this time. You are now Officer Lee Jae-hyun. Congratulations.

Even as he said congratulations, Officer Oh Seo-hyeon’s voice was not bright.

Lee Jae-hyun opened his mouth and blinked.

“Oh, yes. Thank you. Oh, sir, is something wrong?”

―… … A/S, please help me just this once.

Officer Oh Seo-hyeon said with a small sigh.

As soon as he heard her words, Lee Jae-hyun’s face instantly hardened.

Something happened to Song Aram.
