Episode 17 Because My Body Is Precious

“Thank you, Grandpa.”

The one who grabbed his hand was a man who couldn’t wear clothes.

“Look at Grandpa’s hands. Those arm muscles are no joke.”

“uh?”

“If you strangle my neck with this arm, I won’t be able to last even 10 seconds.”

“Why would I strangle you while you’re sweating?”

“Just kidding, just kidding. Wow, is that the cabin over there?”

The man who got on the boat grabbed him and dragged him straight inside the boat, leaving the woman behind.

“No, that girl too… … .”

What the heck, this guy? Shouldn’t he be able to get the woman on board too?

He can’t even dress well and doesn’t care about women. How did this guy get such a pretty girlfriend?

“It’s okay. It’ll come up on its own.”

The man led the bewildered man inside the ship.

“Is this the cabin? Wow, this is my first time in that cabin. Is this the steering wheel? No, it’s not the steering wheel? You drive a car, and you drive a boat, so isn’t that the steering wheel?”

“No, but still. I wonder if the young lady got on the boat well… … .”

“It was a good ride. Over there in the corner.”

As I turned my gaze to where the man was pointing, I saw the back of a woman crouching on the edge of the boat. She looked very awkward as she was crouching down, but it was definitely the light pink jacket I had seen earlier.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I have severe motion sickness. It’s better if you sit like that. But this is better. The steering wheel, oh! Isn’t this called a rudder? No, steering? Or the steering wheel?”

“Wow. My ears are bleeding.”

He talked so much that it felt like his soul was being sucked out of him.

“Let’s go for now.”

“Let’s do that.”

He hurriedly set sail, thinking that once they set sail, it would be a little quieter, buried in the sound of the engine and the waves.

* * *

When the ship was somewhat out to sea.

‘Is it okay to start moving now?’

[Yes, I think it will be okay.]

‘Kim Deok-su hasn’t noticed yet?’

[That’s right. You fooled me with just a jacket. Mr. Kiso Young is a questionable loser.]

I borrowed the light pink jacket that Kisoyoung was wearing and put it on my back.

Neither the torso nor the arms fit, so I just had it roughly draped over my back. But fortunately, I was fooled because I saw the back of him crouching down.

This is pretty good.

[Are you clear-headed?]

‘That’s because Kim Deok-su only saw my back, and only my upper body while crouching. Maybe Kim Deok-su just has bad eyesight.’

I concluded that it was too dangerous to bring Mr. Kisoyoung on board the suspicious old man’s boat. Furthermore, it was more advantageous for me to be there to find evidence without having to stir up the boat.

So I was hiding nearby, and after Kisoyoung said hello, while Wi Junwoo was catching Kim Deoksu’s attention, I put on Kisoyoung’s jacket and quickly got on the boat.

‘Is Wi Jun-woo doing well?’

I turned my gaze toward the cabin. I couldn’t see them, but Kim Deok-su and Wi Jun-woo must be inside.

Aliotta focused on the cabin. There was a brief buzzing sound, as if tuning into a radio frequency.

– Are there no sharks in this sea?

– He’s not here.

– Where is the ocean without sharks? There’s even a song. Baby Shark, Mama Shark, Grandma Shark, Grandpa Shark, Papa Shark, Uncle Shark, Dooroo Dooroo~.

– Oh, there are no sharks!

– Pororo also caught a shark while fishing.

– What else is Pororo?

Hmm. You’re doing well.

[As expected. I guess this is something you’re born with.]

Aliotta and I shook our heads at the same time.

Anyway, since Wi Jun-woo was keeping Kim Deok-su in check, it was our turn to go find evidence.

First we approached the railing of the ship, where we had first discovered a fishing net hanging from a sharp nail. Next to it, a piece of cloth hanging loosely from a nail.

‘We can collect evidence later after we get a search warrant.’

[Shall we take a look at it with a black light?]

‘Oh, you had that feature too?’

[Ahem. Of course.]

As soon as he finished speaking, the vision through the glasses darkened slightly. To a dark purple or blue color.

A blacklight is simply an ultraviolet (UV-A) wavelength device. It emits ultraviolet light along with visible light, which allows things that were previously invisible to the naked eye to become visible.

For example. Blood, semen, saliva, urine, etc.

Of course, we need to collect a sample and read it accurately to determine its identity, but a black light is convenient for getting a rough idea of ​​what is buried where.

You could spray a chemical called luminol to see the blood traces better, but there’s no way I’d carry that around.

I put on my black light glasses and looked around, and I saw black marks all over the ship.

‘Oh, that.’

[There’s no need to get excited, Hyungwang. This is a ship.]

‘ah.’

They catch fish on the boat, and sometimes they even make sashimi here. It wouldn’t be strange to see fish blood sprinkled around the boat.

[This is a bit suspicious.]

However, unlike most black marks, or blood traces, which are concentrated on the bottom of the boat, fishhooks, and various fishing gear.

The place Aliotta pointed to was the railing near the nail where the piece of rag was stuck.

Black traces of something flying out as if something had suddenly surged up. The fact that this much blood was coming from the fish, and that it was seen on the railing rather than the fishing gear, is a sufficiently suspicious circumstance.

‘I guess this is going to hurt people?’

Maybe this isn’t just a case of dead bodies being dumped on a boat, but a real murder scene.

[To be more precise, we should call the scientific investigation team.]

‘huh.’

[There’s something here too.]

Aliotta, who had turned off the blacklight and returned to normal, was zooming in on the floor near the railing.

[Here’s something shiny.]

As I got closer, I saw something stuck in the gap of the ship’s shelf. I couldn’t touch it because it might contaminate the evidence.

‘Zoom in a little more.’

[yes.]

With Aliotta’s help, I magnified the sparkling part by more than 10 times.

[Is that a heart?]

A cute teddy bear was holding a heart. It was probably a cell phone strap or a pendant. Whatever it was, it didn’t look like something Kim Deok-su would have.

‘This is enough. The piece of the checked shirt, the cell phone strap, and the bloodstains. I think this should be enough evidence.’

[yes.]

“Call me right now.”

[Who should I do this to?]

“Who is it? It’s Chief Jang Gi-tae.”

Aliotta, which was synchronized with me, could make and receive calls as if it were connected via Bluetooth.

“hello?”

– Oh, sword. I was going to call you anyway.

“Sir, please issue a search warrant right now.”

– What are you talking about? Weren’t you out to educate people about the spawning season fish catching ban? Why do you need a search warrant?

“You know the college students from Seoul? The one who was found dead. I think we found the culprit.”

– No, how did you suddenly do that… …?

“That’s not important right now. We need to get a search warrant quickly before the evidence is destroyed.”

– Why are you asking the manager to do it when you can do it yourself? And, can you just apply for it? There has to be a basis for it, a basis.

“I’m on the criminal’s boat right now. There’s some evidence here, including bloodstains and accessories.”

– You didn’t touch that, did you? If you touched it with your hand… … .

The voice of Chief Jang Gi-tae, who had been nagging, stopped for a moment. And then.

– Hey, Inma! The criminal’s boat? You’re on the criminal’s boat?? No, what the heck! Why are you on a case that hasn’t even come up yet? The criminal’s boat?

“Oh, my ears are ringing.”

– The culprit is Baerani. Are you alone? Inma, how dangerous is that?

“By the way, please send the police here quickly while you’re getting a search warrant. It might be dangerous.”

– What’s the situation now?

It was then that a dull ‘thud’ sound was heard from the cabin. Judging from the ugly sound, it seemed to be Wei Jun-woo’s.

“Oh. Is that Wei Jun-un?”

[I guess so. I think it would be good to go and see.]

– What? Wi Jun-woo? The prosecutor’s investigator in your room?

“Sir, there’s no time to be flustered right now. Stop yelling and get a search warrant right away. Send the police over quickly, too. If you don’t want to hold a funeral for Wi Jun-woo.”

– Huh? A portrait?

I hung up the phone before Manager Jang Gi-tae could yell anything else. There was no more time to hold the phone.

If I were a smart person, I would know that I had to move quickly. Get a search warrant, and call the police.

‘You text me the simple evidence and the location here.’

[yes.]

After giving orders to Aliota, he quickly headed towards the cabin.

* * *

“But why is the main character of the song a shark?”

“I don’t know.”

“Well, there are whales too.”

“Positive.”

Kim Deok-su came up with a new strategy. He felt like he was being manipulated by the guy because he kept answering questions.

I listened to the constant grumbling with one ear and let it go out the other. But if I was too quiet, he’d get upset and say things like, “Yeah. Okay. Okay.”

“There is an octopus doctor, and the piano is a squid. Even the octopus has many legs, so why is it that only the squid plays the piano?”

“I don’t know.”

“The squid is already wearing a hat, so why is the doctor an octopus? The gift should be a pearl in a clam, why is it a clam shell?”

“Worm, shit.”

“yes?”

Kim Deok-su spat on his palm and turned around. I tried to hold it in, but it just wouldn’t work. I had to deal with this chatterbox quickly.

“Why is that man’s tongue so long?”

“I’m originally a very quiet and reserved person. Silence is golden, and silence is bitcoin. I’m a person who believes in these beliefs. But somehow I got involved with swords and ended up acting like this, which is not in my fate… … Ugh!”

Kim Deok-su, unable to bear it any longer, picked up the heavy tool box next to the rudder and threw it at Wi Jun-woo.

Wi Jun-woo, who was as agile as he was talkative, quickly dodged it, but he was still surprised.

“Grandpa, I almost got hurt.”

“Shit, man!”

Kim Deok-su decided to completely get rid of Wi Jun-woo, and kicked the guy in the stomach while he was letting his guard down.

Wi Jun-woo fell out of the cabin after hitting the cabin door.

“Even if you’re old, I won’t look after you anymore. Ugh!”

Wi Jun-woo, who had shaken himself off and clenched his fists, screamed when he saw Kim Deok-su running towards him with a hook in his hand.

“This is foul play! Ah, shit.”

“What is Mr. Adult Hunt, Mr. Hunt?”

“Wow, sir. Grandpa, let’s see someone swing a hook in front of you. Don’t you want to curse? Ugh!”

“Those who are about to die are the ones making the most noise.”

“Huh? Oh my, I survived.”

Wi Jun-woo, who was backing away to avoid the swinging hook, smiled in relief as he looked behind Kim Deok-su.

Kim Deok-su suppressed a hollow laugh. Perhaps he was trying to distract himself. It was impossible.

It might be different in the middle of the market. This is on the sea. The only people on this boat are you, that slovenly guy who can’t wear clothes, and a woman. It won’t interfere with your work.

“Hey, is that really a hook? Chief, are you sure you can dodge it?”

“… … ?”

It was strange. The person behind him was clearly a woman, but why was her voice so thick?

Kim Deok-su glanced back and was startled.

“What, what the hell? Who are you?”

Taller than expected. Broad shoulders. Anyone could tell he was a man.

“Who is it? Prosecutor Do Hyeon-gwang. Is this your first time seeing a prosecutor like this?”

While he was distracted by Do Hyeon-gwang, Wi Jun-woo came from behind. However, Kim Deok-su was not easy either. He somehow moved his arm and tried to hit him with the hook.

As he tried to avoid being caught by the hook he had put out, he ended up letting Kim Deok-su go again.

“Inspector! Don’t just watch. Help me!”

“Oh my, what am I doing? I can do it on my own.”

“Good job, Inma! Hey! You little punk! Stop this!”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not good at fighting, Chief.”

“That damn dog!”

Wi Jun-woo screamed as he dodged the hook swings of Kim Deok-su. I stood still and watched their fight.

‘Why are you swearing so much when you say this is your chance?’

[It’s okay to get cursed at. Without even helping.]

‘You can do it on your own.’

[That’s true. Physically, in terms of strength and technique, Wi Jun-woo has a 94% chance of winning. Even Wi Jun-woo is a black belt in Taekwondo and Judo.]

I will fill the remaining 6% with my support.

“Chief, fighting!”

I, who don’t know any martial arts, cheered with all my might.

Because my body is precious.
