There is no villain in my return 146
“What kind of business is it?”
“That’s right. There’s a lot of talk about him these days. He’s the king of villas, the king of the world. He’s a person who has earned many resentments, so it wouldn’t be strange for him to be killed by someone.”
The wife and daughter do not know the exact details of her deceased husband’s business.
I was only interested in the money he brought me.
“Ms. Kwon Ah-young. How was the scene when you returned home? Was there anything different from usual?”
“The gate was locked. It locks automatically when you close it. And then you come up to the garden.”
She hesitated for a moment before continuing her answer.
“I found my dad and called the police. The front door was open. The light was on in his room too.”
“Is there anything missing from your home?”
“I don’t know. My mom checked.”
Kim Mi-kyung, who was sitting with her arms crossed, sighed and said.
“The money in the safe disappeared.”
“How much is it?”
“400,000 dollars. In Korean currency, that would be about 500 million won.”
“Why did you keep so much money in the safe?”
“My ex-husband originally liked to save cash.”
The scope of the scientific investigation team’s investigation extended to the victim’s house and room.
Kim Mi-kyung and Kwon Ah-young went to a hotel because they did not want to stay at the scene of the incident.
Oh Kyung-soo clicked his tongue as he looked at the mother and daughter.
“But her husband and father are dead, so how can she just leave like that?”
“It didn’t seem like they had a normal family relationship anyway.”
Shinwoo looked around the scene of the incident and roughly guessed what the situation was.
The three Heilongjiang brothers began to search for Lee Woo-ram in earnest.
I came here and tortured Kwon Dae-hoon to get some clues.
“Inspector, what should we do?”
“The money that disappeared. Even if he took 400,000 dollars in 100 dollar bills, he wouldn’t have carried 40 bundles of them around with his bare body, and he would have left something on the CCTV.”
We checked the surrounding CCTV footage for an hour before and after the victim’s death and ordered an inquiry into the people around him.
As a result, we found people who remembered the events of the previous night in relatively detail relatively quickly.
She’s the girl right next door.
It was right next door to Kwon Dae-hoon’s house, so close that he could look inside over the fence if he wanted to.
Oddly enough, there was soundproofing sheeting on the windows on Kwon Dae-hoon’s side of the house.
“Please sit here. Would you like a glass of water?”
“Yes, I would appreciate it.”
“To be honest, I fought with the guy next door a lot.”
“What exactly were you fighting about?”
The woman sighed deeply and continued speaking.
“There’s a high school senior in my house who’s preparing for the college entrance exam, and the neighbors are always noisy, day and night. They drink all night and play music incredibly loudly. So how can I not fight with them?”
I called the police several times, but all they gave me was a verbal warning.
Bae Ji-hoon responded appropriately to her story and drew her out for more conversation.
“There’s nothing more annoying than the noise from next door.”
“That’s right! It was quiet for a while, but then yesterday, it got noisy again. I think it was around 6 o’clock. I tried to ignore it, but I could hear more and more swearing and it got worse.”
I opened the window to say something, but all I could do was watch the unusual sight.
“There were some men with scary faces standing in the garden. They were arguing badly.”
Shinwoo and Oh Kyungsoo exchanged glances.
“Do you know what we talked about?”
“No. I just saw them go into the house together. It was quiet after that.”
I was paying no attention until I saw the police come this morning and realized something was wrong.
“Can you tell me about that man?”
“Well, he was wearing a helmet and all black clothes, so he didn’t really have any distinguishing features. Instead.”
She searched through her bag and took out a small note.
[32U 190*]
“That’s the license plate number of the car parked in front of the house next door. If I know this, I can catch the culprit, right?”
Bae Ji-hoon smiled brightly and bowed his head.
“Thank you, it has made things a lot more possible. Thank you.”
“I have one more thing to tell you.”
“Yes. Anything.”
“You know that the man next door didn’t behave well, right?”
“What makes you think so?”
“People who claimed to be victims came to me often. Every time they did, there were several shouting matches. They were definitely people with dirty intentions.”
* * *
Shinwoo talked to other villagers, aside from the woman next door.
Their common opinion was that the murdered Kwon Dae-hoon had many enemies.
People would come to his house out of the blue, but he would act like he was being rude.
If the victims made even the slightest noise or tried to enter the house, they immediately reported it to the police.
In the past six months alone, the number of reports reached 12.
That’s why Kwon Dae-hoon was a famous person among the police officers.
“It’s a bit weird to say this about a dead person, but he was a really horrible person. He was abusive not only to the victims who came to see him, but also to the police. He would often say things like, “I’m the one feeding you guys,” and he would even spray water from a hose on top of the front door.”
“Were there any other problems?”
“There were a lot. I got calls during fights between my spouse and my daughter ran away from home several times.”
The investigators’ investigation is similar.
This is a vehicle that stopped in time at the time of the incident.
There are three men going up there.
“The vehicle must have been a cannon truck and they must have changed vehicles along the way.”
And everything was as Shinwoo expected.
The vehicle is abandoned in a vacant lot on the outskirts of Seoul.
Inside, a rope and a helmet that appeared to have been used in the crime were found, but unfortunately, that was where their traces ended.
Perhaps to avoid the road cameras, he intentionally only moved along small roads.
“We will continue to track the cannon car that has been fired.”
“They must have already changed the license plate and kept changing it.”
By the time the chase is over, another crime will have already been committed.
After that, Shinwoo left the tracking to the police and focused on finding Wooram Lee.
“They move faster than I thought.”
After returning to the Seoul District Prosecutors’ Office, Shinwoo called Oh Cheol-gi, who was monitoring the Heilongjiang brothers.
-Yes, sir. There doesn’t seem to be any movement as of now.
“They moved. The ones over there are bait.”

Oh Cheol-gi was embarrassed.
I said I would keep an eye on him without taking my eyes off him for even a moment, but the person has changed in the meantime.
But Shinwoo didn’t scold him.
They are professional troubleshooters who operate not only in China and Korea, but throughout Asia.
If they had decided to hide their appearance, it would be natural for Oh Cheol-gi not to be able to chase them.
“I was too complacent.”
Shinwoo needs to think one step faster than those guys.
One thing is certain: they also think that Lee Woo-ram is in Korea and are tracking him.
“Stop chasing Baek Yeong-chun and instead look for anything related to fishing boats or ships among Lee Woo-ram’s assets.”
-Are you talking about a fishing boat?
“Yeah. You have to be careful because it might not be among the revealed assets.”
-Yes, sir.
The people they are after are those involved in the lease fraud.
We had to get ahead of the curve and track it down before the incident happened.
* * *
And the next day.
Shinwoo went to find another acquaintance of Lee Wooram together with detective Oh Kyungsoo.
My name is Choi Cheol.
He was a licensed real estate agent and was also on trial for lease fraud.
“Inspector, we have arrived.”
It is a premium apartment located in Seoul.
To enter the magnificent heights, one had to pass through a guard post.
“The guy who made others cry with real estate is living in an expensive place.”
“That’s true.”
Oh Kyung-soo received a visitor’s pass from the security guard and asked about Choi Cheol’s lake just in case.
“Do you know anyone who lives here?”
“I know. What a picky person you are. How many times have you made a fuss about never opening the door to anyone who comes looking for you?”
Just like Kwon Dae-hoon, there were quite a few victims who came looking for Choi Cheol.
“Are you at home now?”
“Well, we work shifts so we don’t see each other very often.”
Shinwoo and Oh Kyungsoo parked their car in the parking lot and went up to the 15th floor.
The front door was covered in all kinds of curse words and graffiti.
[You swindler! One day, you too will receive the same punishment!]
[Die! Die!]
Shinwoo put his ear to the door and listened before knocking.
There was no sound from inside.
I tried ringing the bell but there was no response from inside.
“Let me make a phone call.”
Oh Kyung-soo took out his cell phone and called Choi Cheol.
Then a faint ringing sound was heard from inside the door.
It’s not an illusion.
“Are you pretending not to know inside?”
“You don’t turn off your phone for that.”
Shinwoo, who had been thinking for a while, made a decision.
“I’ll force you to come in.”
“Okay. I’ll call the security guard.”
“are you okay.”
Shinwoo looked around and picked up a fire extinguisher in the hallway.
Then he placed the clothes on the doorknob and slammed it down with all his might.
Kuung!
There were several heavy thuds and the doorknob shattered and sank downward.
Shinwoo opened the door, pulling it as if he was tearing it off.
The first thing I encountered was a mess of footprints on the floor.
“Oh, detective, move carefully.”
Shinwoo entered the house with caution.
But what greeted them was not Choi Cheol, but bloodstains scattered everywhere.
Oh Kyung-soo, startled, took out his three-sectioned staff.
Blood splattered on the floor and walls showed that he had suffered a fatal wound.
The blood trail leads from the living room to the bedroom.
Clank-
The door opened about an inch and then caught on something.
At first glance, I saw someone’s bloody feet.
Unlike Kwon Dae-hoon, the body was lying down without his hands or feet being tied.
That’s not all that’s different.
“It’s miserable.”
It seemed as if he had been tortured for a while, with the tendons on both ears and both feet cut off.
The sock shoved in his mouth is red with broken teeth and oozing blood.
Shinwoo looked at the body and began to picture in his head what had happened there.
The criminals tortured Choi Cheol brutally and then killed him.
To show someone.
“There are marks from being tied to the chair.”
There was Choi Cheol and another man in this house.
“Perhaps it is the missing Lee Woo-ram.”
If the Heilongjiang Three Brothers captured Lee Woo-ram, they would soon find out where the money was hidden.
Fortunately, the blood had not cloted for long.
If you hurry, you can catch it.
“We’ll leave this to the police and continue to track them down.”
Shinwoo searched for a vehicle registered under Choi Cheol’s name.
They are not the type of people who drive cannon carts for a long time.
And Shinwoo’s thoughts were correct.
“Sir, we found Choi Cheol’s vehicle. He said he parked it at the Marine Bay Hotel in Incheon Port about two hours ago.”
“Two hours. It’s tight. We have to hurry too.”
Shinwoo asked for support, thinking that he would face the three Heilongjiang brothers.
As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I showed my government ID and checked the vehicle.
It’s a new white Benz.
It looked like an ordinary car, but upon closer inspection, Shinwoo discovered blood flowing from the bottom of the car’s trunk.
