Chapter 55

What Did I Do

“Why? Is there an acquaintance outside?”

Jin Se-hyeok examined outside the window following me.

“Hyung. Those people passing there, something strange?”

Only after I pointed Jin Se-hyeok saw the [False One].

“Hmm. Looks very hot like me?”

Jin Se-hyeok was also wearing sunglasses and a mask. Here even a hat.

Good, nothing special is visible in the regular patient’s eyes.

A bit relieved.

“Doesn’t it resemble that cult leader who appeared on the news a while ago? The guy who scammed some actor and also did confinement and threats. The face was exposed on Instagram.”

“Tightly covered the face with sunglasses and mask, is that visible?”

“Actually coincidentally saw close once. The person beside was also that cult religion believer. But that person, heard disappeared during investigation and a wanted was issued.”

“Wanted?”

Jin Se-hyeok and the manager made surprised expressions.

“Then have to report to the police right away?”

“Yes, have to. Please wait here the two people.”

I went out of the restaurant without hearing the answer.

Wore a mask just in case.

I’m not a style overflowing with a sense of justice. Not that close with Kim Gwang-ho who was victimized by that cult leader either.

But as a human there are things to do and things not to do.

That guy made a person who should be taken to the hospital immediately, deceived saying can cure with prayer and in the end die.

That kind of guy wandering the middle of Seoul without paying for the crime, just leave that?

“Execute regular patient finding.”

Raised the map.

The small crow icon representing Jin Se-hyeok.

The bright red dot thought stuck right beside was slowly falling. Then when separating about 20 meters from Jin Se-hyeok disappeared.

The dot thought one, also seems like two were stuck so looked like that.

Anyway when first detected, somehow was right near Jin Se-hyeok so caught.

“End regular patient finding.”

The map disappeared.

“Yes, police right. The cult leader who appeared on the news a while ago. The one who disappeared during investigation. Now discovered that person and trying to report.”

[False One] once caught by the system, if within over 100 meters the bright red text is visible anywhere.

“Here is···.”

Thanks to that I could continue following keeping a distance so they don’t notice.

Could also run and grab the napes of those two like this, but as the character level rose the strength became absurdly strong.

If actively stepping out the matter can get twisted, so leave the arrest to the police.

“Yes, now entered a building called ○○ Building. Please come quickly. No way coming while sounding the siren right?”

The police arrived quietly.

However.

[False One]

[False One]

Whether watching outside the window, as soon as the police car was parked the two texts that were on the 3rd floor moved in a fluster.

“Are you the reporter?”

“Yes.”

I hung up the call and answered.

“Those two people, seems got off on the 3rd floor riding the elevator. Just in case shall I block the back door?”

The dispatched police were only two.

Since came receiving a radio while patrolling understandable, but a bit anxious.

No matter how small a small building, the cult leader might resist violently.

“We’ll block the back door.”

“Startled. When did you come?”

I turned my head with a surprised face.

Jin Se-hyeok and the manager with faces tightly covered.

“Followed you Bong-sik from earlier?”

The police made a troubled expression.

“Because it can be dangerous reporters please don’t block the door or intervene. Please wait here.”

“Yees.”

The police entered the building.

Soon the top became noisy.

“Catch, catch!”

Thud.

“Ack!”

One [False One] was caught and the movement stopped, a scream was heard.

“Senior, the window!”

“···This shit!”

Window?

Raising my head tightly, another [False One] moving inward was visible.

Then thud.

Fell about 2m below.

“······!”

I immediately ran that way.

Behind the building. The [False One] coming down stepping on the air conditioner outdoor unit.

It was the cult leader.

From the widely open 3rd floor window several people’s shouts were heard.

“Block so can’t go!”

“Ahem! Can’t go!”

There were more helpers of the cult leader on the 3rd floor!

But what to do.

I’m a helper of the police.

“Uncle, if coming down stepping on the outdoor unit it’s dangerous.”

“······?!”

Startle!

The cult leader who was coming down while being careful was startled and looked at me.

“If that breaks will uncle take responsibility?”

“You, what are you! Move, man!”

“Hey! Here!”

At that time Jin Se-hyeok and the manager also came, and shouted to other people passing.

“That person is a wanted scammer!”

“Yes, police right? Now here a wanted scammer, is trying to run away dodging the other dispatched police!”

“···Iik!”

Whether judged better to break through us and run before more people gather.

The flustered cult leader boldly jumped from the 2nd floor height.

Thud!

“Ack!”

And before I could do something, alone mislanded and rolled holding the leg.

“Tsuup, keuk···.”

“Ahyu. A great person who cures incurable diseases with prayer, can’t even do one landing properly.”

I crouched keeping a distance from the cult leader.

“Should have exercised a bit during the time exploiting others, you cultist.”

“Who are you···!”

In the meantime one police ran and grabbed the cult leader.

“Are you Kim Sang-hyeon?”

The cult leader whether resentful of being caught, roughly struggled and shouted.

“This shit···!”

Click, click.

Passersby who approached with puzzled faces filmed that appearance with phones.

***

The Chinese restaurant came a little earlier.

On the private room table full of delicious looking food was placed.

“Even only watching from afar dopamine burst.”

Jin Se-hyeok chattered with an excited face.

“Reporting to the police and following the wanted, and blocking the attempt to escape then even seeing actually arrested. Moment the thought ‘Is this a drama set?’ arose?”

The manager let out a sigh of relief.

“At least fortunate no one recognized Se-hyeok.”

“Because covered the face all.”

“Is it really okay to eat this?”

“Of course. Eat as much as you want, Bong-sik. I’ll buy.”

“I’ll eat well.”

Scooped the most delicious looking food into the bowl and ate one bite.

“···Oh, this is really delicious?”

“This is also delicious. Try.”

“Wow, that person earlier was really a bad guy?”

The manager looked at the phone and shook his head.

“Searching, the damage amount is estimated tens of billions.”

“Really?”

“···Today’s matter.”

I chewed and swallowed all the food put full in the mouth, then said to the two people.

“It seems good to keep secret from the surroundings.”

“Why?”

I briefly pretended to ponder, then informed that the person who was with the cult leader is actor Choi Hyun-su’s former manager.

Also the matter Choi Hyun-su asked me for help at the airport.

Didn’t talk about the story of going to the cult religious organization facility with Burns to find actor Kim Gwang-ho.

Jin Se-hyeok made a curious expression.

“So you recognized the believer who was beside the cult leader too. How is there this kind of coincidence···.”

I smiled pretending not to know.

“Indeed.”

Even if coincidence, thanks to you caught no different.

“Anyway there might be more other gangs in the entertainment industry. Seeing the damage amount a criminal organization might be involved. Earlier also saw. The people who interfered with the police trying to help that cult leader.”

Jin Se-hyeok and the manager’s expressions became serious.

“Yeah. A bit like gangsters.”

“If going around talking about today’s matter, we might be retaliated for nothing···.”

I nodded.

“Yes. The first reporter is me, but hyung who is a popular celebrity is easy to become a target.”

The two people nodded.

“Yeah, I’ll be careful.”

“Me too.”

***

For the merit of contributing to the cult leader’s arrest, decided to receive a certificate of appreciation at the police station later.

Didn’t inform the parents and Lee Mun-yeong because might get scolded.

-[That cult leader was caughtㅎ]

[Fortunate.]

Also pretended not to know at Burns’ contact.

Weekend.

Came out for a far dining with the family commemorating Sister’s employment.

“Congratulations on getting employed at a good company, daughter.”

“Thank you. Mom, Dad. This is all thanks to Mom and Dad.”

“But the company is far from home. Will commuting be okay?”

“Trying a few months, if hard independence···.”

“Independence?”

As soon as Sister brought up ‘independence’, Father opened both eyes wide.

“Kang Hyun-seo, going to become independent?”

“No, trying commuting a few months···.”

“Still independence won’t do. Too early.”

“Father. To me often say become independent.”

“You Bong-sik and your sister are different. You can live well alone anywhere, but Hyun-seo···. Ahyu. If living alone will cleaning be done properly? Soon mold and hair will be teeming all over the house.”

“Wait, Dad.”

Sister’s expression became cold.

“Is the worrying point that? Not the worry that if daughter lives alone it’s dangerous, that kind of worry?”

“Not that I said something wrong either···.”

“Dad!”

A childish argument between father and daughter started. Mother ignored familiarly.

“Bong-sik what are you doing from next week?”

“On weekdays receiving TOEIC special lecture, on Saturday going to the local children’s center and teaching kids.”

“Now not going to the abandoned dog shelter?”

“There trying to go occasionally.”

“The weather is hot these days. Be careful when going.”

“Yes.”

Ding, ding.

A message came from junior Yu Han-na.

-[Senior senior senior]

-[Help help help]

“······?”

Came out and called.

“What’s the matter?”

-[Bong-sik senior, previously damaged our escape room cafe property right?]

“······.”

-[Originally if drinking alcohol theme entry is not allowed, that day the boss specially looked right?]

“···Han-na. That day not only me entered, all entered together.”

-[Property damage only senior did right? But the boss generously looked right?]

No words to say.

“The reason for help?”

Yu Han-na smiled.

-[One part-timer dove. Please help work a bit today or tomorrow from 5 PM until closing. The boss said will give a lot of hourly wage.]

“Just going out one day is fine?”

-[Yep!]

“Then I’ll go tomorrow.”

Today decided to meet Jang Deok-il’s child.

A bit past 9 at night.

Met Lee Mun-yeong at the appointment place.

“Long time, ‘Plague Doctor’-nim.”

“Hello, Secretary Lee. Changed the hairstyle?”

“Yes. A bit hot so cut the ends a bit.”

“Suits well.”

“Thank you. A little earlier called Jang Deok-il player, the wife is sleeping with the child in another room so can enter comfortably. But what’s that?”

“A gift for the child.”

“I also prepared.”

Today not coming to do treatment prayer, so didn’t pack the bird-beak mask. Covered the face only with sunglasses and mask, hat.

Knock knock.

In front of Jang Deok-il’s house.

When Lee Mun-yeong knocked on the front door, whether waiting the door immediately opened.

“Please come in.”

Bow.

Jang Deok-il greeted very quietly then guided us inside.

“Both wife and child are asleep.”

Whisper whisper.

“Yes. Late but congratulations on the daughter. Here’s a gift.”

“······.”

I also followed Lee Mun-yeong and held out the gift without words.

Jang Deok-il smiled brightly and bowed his head.

“Thank you.”

A cozy room emitting a slightly sweet formula smell.

The child only one month old was sleeping soundly.

“Cute···.”

“······.”

I also carefully knelt and sat, and looked into the child’s face.

Really cute.

Small.

Look at the round face a bit.

Wanting to see a bit more closely, took off the sunglasses.

At that time.

Blink.

The child suddenly opened the eyes.

The gaze met.

[Faced the sprout of hope!]

[System]

-Faced the sprout of hope.

-First sprout of hope limited: Imprinted as a lifelong benefactor to the sprout of hope.

-First sprout of hope limited: The sprout of hope will grow into an excellent warrior who never loses to bad disease demons and demons.

A new text appeared above the child’s head.

[Follower]

“······.”

I was extremely flustered.

Imprinted as a lifelong benefactor?

Excellent warrior?

···Oh my.

What did I do.

Behind Jang Deok-il was making a satisfied smile.
