There is no villain in my return 129

Shinwoo jumped in like a hawk hunting for prey.

The expression on Kim Min-ki’s face as he turned around in surprise at the shadow cast over his head was something to behold.

“You crazy kid!”

Kim Min-ki landed wrong, twisted his ankle, and rolled on the floor.

In the meantime, he never let go of the bag he had tucked under his arm.

The man who got up from his seat limped away from Shinwoo.

He pulled out his knife and swung it roughly.

“Get out of my way! If you come near, I’ll kill you!”

“Where are you running off to? Woodfoot Wood?”

I was startled by Shinwoo’s question.

Oh Cheol-gi had already found out about Kim Min-ki while investigating Beomgu-pa and Woodfoot Wood.

To be exact, he served as a link between the Beomgu faction and Woodfoot Wood, acting as a dispatched employee.

I knew it was something I could just throw away, but I was curious about what was in the bag I was holding tightly.

“Put the knife down. It’s all over.”

“Is it over? Who cares? If you come near, I’ll make a hole in your body. If you want to get hurt, then come at me!”

Police reinforcements arrived late.

Kim Min-ki’s face turned black as the police surrounded him.

His gaze turned to the motorcycle parked on the side of the road.

“……Fuck. If I just had this…….”

But the thought didn’t last long.

Startled by a loud noise, I turned around and saw Oh Kyung-soo standing there.

“What are you……”

Before the words could be finished, the sky turned upside down.

To be exact, Shinwoo grabbed her by the nape of her neck and threw her to the floor.

A body that ignored gravity rose and then fell from the top down.

“Cough!”

Kim Min-ki fell to the ground and lost consciousness without even screaming.

As Shinwoo raised his fist to strike again, Oh Kyungsoo shouted urgently.

“Inspector, he passed out!”

Kim Min-ki, who was grabbed by the collar, was already drooping with his eyes rolled back.

“He’s weaker than I thought.”

“……Isn’t it because the inspector is strong?”

Even though he jumped from the second floor, Shinwoo moved as if nothing had happened.

While the police were confirming Kim Min-ki’s identity, Shin-woo checked the bag the man was holding.

It’s a multi-layered plastic bag containing what appears to be drugs, a wad of cash, and a USB memory chip.

Shinwoo left the drugs and money behind and took the USB.

If the bag goes into the police station’s evidence collection list, the USB will disappear.

It is by no means an unfounded suspicion.

‘Kim Min-ki received a call saying the police were coming before he was caught.’

This is also the reason why the Pan-Guppa incident had to remain a long-term incident.

There are already people within the police force who are colluding with the old guard.

We’ll have to find out who that is little by little.

“What are you doing! Why are you touching the evidence?!”

A rough voice burst out from behind Shinwoo.

I looked back and a man with curly hair and sharp eyes was glaring at me.

For a split second, the face of Kim Min-ki, who was lying on the floor, was filled with bewilderment.

“Who are you?”

“Who would dare to say such an insolent brat…….”

The one who stopped the man walking briskly was detective Oh Kyung-soo.

He showed his prosecutor’s office ID card as usual.

“Come on. Don’t get excited. Let’s talk privately.”

“What? A prosecutor? Why a prosecutor…….”

“Haha, why would the inspector come to catch the criminal?”

Shinwoo feels like Yoo Hyeoncheol’s face is familiar to him.

Being remembered is never a good thing.

“I’m Kang Shin-woo, a prosecutor at the Seoul District Prosecutors’ Office. What about you?”

“……Manager Yoo Hyeon-cheol from Gangnam.”

“Ah. That’s Yoo Hyeon-cheol.”

Shinwoo’s eyebrows twitched as he muttered something as if he knew something.

Before I could say anything else, Bae Ji-hoon, who was in the officetel, came down.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“Yes. That’s nothing special.”

“If I treat my body however I want because I’m still young, will it hurt?”

Bae Ji-hoon nodded his head as he looked at Yoo Hyeon-cheol standing next to him.

“Is the manager here?”

“Yeah. Why did you go in so early? Don’t you know that it’s dangerous if you don’t arrive on time?”

“that is…….”

Bae Ji-hoon was about to talk about the phone call Kim Min-ki received, but Shin-woo stepped in.

“I’m sorry. I was in a hurry.”

“……Ahem. Why is the inspector here at the scene?”

“That’s it. We’re here to catch bad guys. Guys like Kim Min-ki.”

When he knew Kim Min-ki’s name exactly, the corners of Yoo Hyun-chul’s mouth twitched.

He also knows about Kim Min-ki.

Shinwoo’s suspicions gradually turned into certainty.

As their gazes at each other grew heated, Bae Ji-hoon intervened.

“A significant amount of drugs and cash were found inside the officetel.”

The items found in the bag were less than a third of that.

The police dragged out the gang members in handcuffs along with the evidence they had collected.

Reporters who came with police support thrust their cameras in.

“I knew they would do that! They seem like really bad guys!”

The management office staff also told reporters the same complaints they had told Bae Ji-hoon from afar.

“Ahem. You said Prosecutor Kang, right? This time, the police have done a lot of work, so we’ll bring the witnesses.”

Yoo Hyeon-cheol tried to take Kim Min-ki away, speaking as if he was giving notice.

Shinwoo snorted and blocked his path.

“Why did you decide that, Manager? I caught Kim Min-ki, so I’ll take him. You can do whatever you want with the rest.”

Rather, it was Bae Ji-hoon who was surprised by those words.

Shinwoo was the one who took the lead in capturing the members of the Pan-Guppa organization.

The police actually did nothing more than clean up the mess.

If Shinwoo had asked me to hand it over, I would have done so.

“Is that really okay?”

“Yes. Because you are Lieutenant Bae. Instead, you owe it to me.”

“I’ll pay you back double, triple. I owe you a lot too.”

When Bae Ji-hoon said this, Yoo Hyeon-cheol was left speechless.

“Tsk. With this many people, you’re being pushed around by one inspector? Are you okay with it?”

“Manager, please go over there and talk.”

On the other hand, the one who has doubts is Oh Kyung-soo.

Even to him, it looks like Shinwoo is sharing his credit.

“I think it would have been okay to conduct a joint investigation by the prosecution and police, but it’s a bit disappointing.”

“That’s not bad, but it might not be the best outcome.”

The Pan-Guppa is a nationwide organization.

If you put something that looks delicious in your mouth, it will cause trouble.

For now, I’m going to focus on the private gambling house murder case.

Kim Min-ki is just a signal flare for another incident.

Yoo Hyun-chul, who was listening to Bae Ji-hoon’s story, looked back at Shin-woo several times in surprise.

Soon, as if he had no choice, he got back in the car.

Shinwoo’s eyes looking at her back are cold.

‘You found that rat hiding in the police station so quickly. Not a bad result.’

* * *

A few members of the organization were arrested, but the case was not solved.

Not all of the Pan-Guppa were caught, just some of them.

Back at the prosecution office, investigator Oh Kyung-soo said as he was wrapping up the case.

“Prosecutor, according to what the police just told me, the old guard doesn’t seem to know anything about the suspect either.”

I guess I have no choice but to find out everything based on what I heard from motel owner Im Sook.

Oh Kyung-soo said he would compile a list of children with leukemia in the metropolitan area, but Shin-woo shook his head.

“I’ll do that separately, so Detective Oh, please make sure to check only Kim Min-ki.”

From university hospitals to cancer hospitals in the metropolitan area, there are a total of 132 leukemia patients.

It would take a long time to check each and every one of them, but Shinwoo has a more reliable source of information called Oh Cheol-gi.

And a few hours later, Kim Min-ki, who had fainted, came to his senses.

“I will begin the investigation right away.”

“I will prepare.”

Kim Min-ki was sitting with a bandage wrapped around his head.

He muttered mechanically, his head bowed low.

“Call a lawyer. I won’t say a word until then.”

“Why? The lawyer said he’d clear you of murder charges too?”

“What? What murder?”

At best, I thought it was just a charge of drug selling.

He opened his eyes wide at the unexpected murder.

But when he realized that his opponent was Shinwoo, he flinched.

Even now, the image of Shinwoo falling from the sky remains in my mind like a nightmare.

Shinwoo asked, sitting on the chair opposite him.

“Do you want to call a lawyer and get a clean slate for murder?”

“So what, murder charge? I’ve never killed anyone.”

“Last night, the leader of the Beomgu faction, Ahn Ki-cheol, was found dead in an abandoned motel. The same drugs found in the officetel were found, and anyone can see that there is a strong connection. Surely you wouldn’t deny knowing that, right?”

“No, what good did I get out of killing that guy? He was killed by some crazy bastard who was crazy about money. I did nothing wrong. If you’re a prosecutor, catch the real culprit like a prosecutor!”

Shinwoo snorted and closed the file.

“What are you doing? If you just turn everything upside down, the police, the prosecutors, and even Woodfoot Lumber, which you belong to, will all be relieved.”

“Do you have any evidence? Do you have any evidence that I killed someone?”

Kim Min-ki shook his body like an angry bull.

Shinwoo placed a few of the wads of money he had in his bag on the table.

There were bloodstains on the banknotes.

“Whose blood is this? Just by doing a DNA test, the story that you guys killed Ahn Ki-chul and took the money will come out right away.”

Kim Min-ki’s expression darkened.

Since he already has several violent crime convictions, if he gets convicted of murder this time, he’ll never be able to breathe outside air again.

I bit my lip hard as I was pushed to the edge of a cliff.

There is nothing more he can do.

“……Call a lawyer.”

“I guess you still don’t get it. Do you think a lawyer is going to protect you from me, or from that police rat and Woodfoot?”

Kim Min-ki’s eyes trembled.

“What do you know…….”

“I know who that police rat is, and what he’s going to do to you right now. But what’s scarier than that is Woodfoot, right? He’s going to do whatever it takes to cover up his drug trafficking.”

“……Why me……?”

“Why? Of course. It’s easier to kill you than to trust you.”

Kim Min-ki opened his mouth wide at Shinwoo’s answer.

That’s so true that I can’t even answer.

“If you die alone, not only the police rats, but also the Beomgu faction and Woodfoot Wood will feel better. I can even pass on all the shit that has piled up to now to you.”

“……That’s……nonsense…….”

Shinwoo shook his head and stood up.

“Wait a minute! Where are you going?”

“We can’t waste any more time if the investigation isn’t progressing properly. Remember, this is all your choice and the situation you brought about.”

As I was about to leave, Kim Min-ki shouted urgently.

“……I’ll tell you everything! I’ll tell you everything!”

“Are you sure?”

“Sure, no, sure! I’ll tell you everything.”

Luckily, he’s a quick-witted guy.

He realized that this was the only way to keep his life.

“Okay. Then let’s start with the murder case. Tell me about that kid’s father or whatever.”

“……Are you talking about the guy who killed Ahn Ki-cheol?”

I racked my brain, which I don’t usually use, and tried to remember even the smallest bits of information.

Most of them were useless, but there were some clues among them that could help identify someone.

“That guy said he worked as a nurse in a psychiatric ward. Then he got caught administering medication to a patient and got fired, right? If you just know that, you can catch him, right?”

“I don’t know about that.”

“Why can’t you catch them? If you search the entire country for drug dealer nurses, you’ll find a list right away!”

“Is that punk scolding the prosecutor right now?”

Kim Min-ki flinched at Shinwoo’s gaze.

The one currently holding his neck is Shinwoo.

“Okay, tell me about the bag you had. What was that USB in it?”

“……It’s the insurance policy that Chollang had. He said that if something happened, it would save his life……”

Kim Min-ki doesn’t know what’s inside the USB.

Before we could check, the police stormed into the officetel.

Shinwoo got up from his seat after finishing his business with the guy.

“……Can you catch that guy?”

Shinwoo glanced at Kim Min-ki, who looked impatient, with a cold gaze and left the interrogation room without saying anything.
