The Heavenly Demon Can't Live Ordinarily - Episode 492
492Incheon is changing (5)
Taejun Moon could not believe his ears..
I could not accept my subordinate's report with common sense..
“……Jo Min-woo lost? No, he died?”
“yes. Jo Min-woo died during the promotion examination with Lee Tae-seong, and all 31 people currently known to be in Incheon have passed the promotion examination. How do we handle this? Although they have been detained to prevent them from returning to Incheon, there is no justification for punishing them just because they are in Incheon..”
“This is crazy.”
I felt dizzy.
Thirty-one people passed.
That alone is shocking, but the problem is that Cho Min-woo, a valuable talent of the central government, has died..
‘Jo Min-woo is the person of Geumcheon-gu lawmaker Dal-soo Dal. I had a hard time borrowing my strength to handle this matter, but if it was revealed that Jo Min-woo was dead, there would be an uproar. Damn it. How is this possible? As the intelligence department found out, it was impossible for Lee Tae-seong to defeat Jo Min-woo, but everyone in his direct unit, including him, passed the promotion test. There are changes happening in Incheon that I don't know about..’
My mouth was dry..
It is said that the central government's investigators exercise great power over local governments, but district council members like Dal-su Dal-su tell a different story..
Just because it is a district council member does not mean that Geumcheon-gu has a 'council' that includes Dalseong-su..
This also originated from the abnormal structure of the Republic of Korea, where district council members were in charge of a district as beings who only obeyed the orders of the President of the Republic of Korea..
blast furnace.
Dal-su Dal-su was the king of Geumcheon-gu..
Taejun Moon used him in the background, but because of this incident, Minwoo Jo, whom he cherished, died..
‘Rep. Cho Dal-soo will never ignore this incident. The problem is that I pushed for this, so if it continues like this, I could end up taking all the blame..’
It was a simple problem.
In a situation where less than 30 A-level hunters in Korea died, and a valuable talent directly connected to Rep. Cho Dal-soo's power died, a scapegoat was needed to pay the price..
Even if it was an investigator like myself, I couldn't avoid it..
Because Jo Min-woo's death would weaken Geumcheon-gu's power, it was clear that at least anger would be relieved..
I was at a loss.
There was no way to solve the problem in any way..
In that case, it was necessary for Moon Tae-jun to divert Jo Dal-soo's anger in another direction as much as possible..
Taejun Moon said.
“Lee Tae-seong. Arrest him for intentional murder right now..”
* * *
Lee Tae-seong was moved to another location..
It was a space used as a warehouse at the promotion testing center, but it was turned into a temporary interrogation room..
It was an ugly atmosphere..
With the capital's guardians guarding the area, Moon Tae-jun entered the interrogation room and met Lee Tae-seong..
Take off.
“Lee Tae-seong. Please keep in mind that from now on, every conversation we have will be recorded. Ask directly. Why on earth did you intentionally kill Jo Min-woo, the promotion examiner??”
“……There was no intentional intent to kill. The opponent was trying to attack me, so I just countered him..”
“I guess so. I guess I should say that.”
Taejun Moon twitched..
Lee Tae-seong will be innocent.
Moon Tae-jun knew the truth because he was the one who gave the order to Jo Min-woo, but from now on, the truth was not important at all..
Lee Tae-seong was used as a scapegoat..
By dealing with him as someone who will take on his own sins and as an A-level person, we will be able to weaken the power of the Incheon government..
One hit, two wins).
Turned the crisis into an opportunity.
Taejun Moon said.
“The examiner who was observing the situation at the time said this. The fight between the two was an area of testing, and you suddenly used a heinous move by blowing off Jo Min-woo's head. Lee Tae-seong. That's why you're here. The atmosphere can get rough during the promotion review process, but no one uses such cruel methods as to blow off the opponent's head. We think it was intentionally killed, and the problem is that the person you killed was none other than A-rank hunter Jo Min-woo. He is a valuable talent that is indispensable to the Republic of Korea..”
“I request a formal trial. My actions were clearly self-defense..”
“It's self-defense. If you were part of the central government, your excuse would be acceptable..”
opponent's weakness.
It belonged to him..
The fact that he belongs to the Incheon government gave strength to Taejun Moon’s words..
“The Incheon government committed treason by openly rebelling against the central government. You said you would take your own path, but that is an issue that cannot simply be accepted as a separate area. Why? There is no area like Incheon anywhere in Korea. Incheon Bay was the only city that protested against the central government's orders, so I think this incident may be an extension of the protest. This is a heinous incident in which you, who have a rebellious spirit against the central government, intentionally killed the central government's valuable personnel..”
“uh, what is that!”
“So hurry up and confess. That's the truth. If you tell the truth, I'll let you live a not-so-bad life in prison. But if you keep denying the truth, you'll be exiled to the North.”
North.
The land that once housed North Korea was left in ruins during the first catastrophe..
The land that could no longer be inhabited was filled with only monsters, and whenever a great disaster broke out, monsters flooded in from the north, causing Korea to form a defensive wall centered around Cheorwon..
Expulsion there means dying painfully..
Looking at Moon Tae-jun's eyes shining with murderous intent, Lee Tae-seong knew that the truth would not work..
The other person has already decided on the correct answer.
Seeing how he was trying to get the answer he wanted, Lee Taeseong swallowed his words and remained silent..
‘If it is said that Incheon was responsible, Moon Tae-jun will try to wipe out the Incheon government by using the central government..’
I couldn't allow that..
rather.
will die.
A new hope appeared in Incheon in the form of Roman Dmitry, and Kim Jun-hyuk was finally realizing his dream of creating a strong Incheon..
I didn't want to ruin that dream..
He wanted to watch Incheon change with him, but he didn't want the entire Incheon to bear the consequences of his actions..
I felt resentful toward myself..
If only I were stronger.
If someone was capable of defeating Jo Min-woo without killing him, a situation like this could have been avoided..
“…….”
continued silence.
Lee Tae-seong’s will has been conveyed..
That wasn't bad either.
Moon Tae-jun was about to kill Lee Tae-seong to end this matter, but suddenly a guardian signaled from outside..
Squeak.
“What's going on?”
“Roman Dmitry came from Incheon to meet with investigator Taejun Moon..”
“Roman Dmitry?”
It was an unexpected name..
He who disappeared for a month suddenly appears in Seoul..
Taejun Moon laughed..
“It's fun. Guide me right away. Where, Roman Dmitry, I need to check that liar's face..”
* * *
It was a familiar sight.
Taejun Moon, Roman Dmitry, and Junhyuk Kim.
As they sat facing each other, Taejun Moon smiled wryly..
“Where have you been all this time? Well, that has nothing to do with this case, so I won't bother answering. However, the charge of Lee Tae-seong, a member of the Incheon government, for intentionally murdering Korea's precious talent, A-level hunter Jo Min-woo, is a serious crime that cannot be resolved with any excuse..”
Squeak.
I crossed my legs.
This is Seoul.
The fact that it was the home of the central government gave Moon Tae-jun infinite power..
however.
“You're talking nonsense..”
“……what?”
Roman Dmitry reacted coldly..
Unable to accept this in his head, Taejun Moon distorted his expression and tried to shoot the opponent..
Previously.
Roman Dmitry spoke first.
“Investigator Taejun Moon. Why do you think I was polite in my relationship with you, even though your hostility toward Incheon is clear? Because of the power you have? Because of the existence of a central government? no. Because many lives depend on our conversation. There is a certain responsibility for the words and actions of those in power..”
“What are you talking about??”
“This means speaking carefully. 'Cause what you say, your people could all die.”
gave me a look.
Even though he wasn't called, Kim Jun-hyuk knew it was his turn to step forward..
“All hunters in the direct unit wear body cameras. The video I shot with it was immediately sent to me, and thanks to that, I was able to check the situation at the time without having to share the test video at the upgrade testing center. This is the data. If you check the video, you can see that Jo Min-woo already blatantly showed his intent to kill before Lee Tae-seong murdered Jo Min-woo. I would like to ask Investigator Taejun Moon. Whose intention was this? Is it right for Lee Tae-seong to meekly accept death against someone who rushes in to kill him first??”
Zech.
passed the data.
Taejun Moon’s eyes shook..
Fraudulent accusation begins with excluding the other party's evidence, but I did not expect to secure evidence like this..
Everything was unexpected.
Roman Dmitry's attitude.
Kim Jun-hyuk’s evidence.
At that moment of panic, I heard Roman Dmitry's cold voice..
“The information obtained by Incheon is clear. The central government has been blatantly keeping the Incheon government in check, and has shown intent to kill Incheon's valuable talent, Lee Tae-seong, during the exam. And when it failed, I passed the blame on to Lee Tae-seong. Investigator Taejun Moon. From now on, I intend to accept the central government's actions as a declaration of war against Incheon. what do you think about this?”
* * *
I was out of breath..
I was embarrassed.
The words Roman Dmitry uttered were an area that was not permitted to a weak force like the Incheon government..
‘Those Incheon guys are definitely crazy. Otherwise, how dare you declare war against the central government?!’
declaration of war.
I got goosebumps.
Actually, I thought that if I threatened appropriately, the other person would back down..
It was common sense until now, but things didn't go the way he wanted from start to finish..
I was so angry.
This was not a problem that could just be overlooked..
Moon Tae-jun expressed explosive anger at the sharp eyes looking at him..
Kwaang!
“What are we going to do now??!”
raised my voice.
There was no reason to be scared by the other person's threats..
In the small land mass called the Republic of Korea, the central government boasted of an omnipotent power that could not be challenged..
Incheon?
Things like that can be swept away in a day..
“These crazy bastards. As expected, my prediction was correct. You probably intended to commit treason against the central government from the beginning, and that's why you had Lee Tae-seong kill Jo Min-woo. Do you think you will be safe in Korea even if you act like that? You can look forward to it. I will immediately contact my superiors and report your atrocities, and the President will not allow a heinous group like you to run amok. Roman Dmitry. This is where the threats of scammers like you end up working..”
I got up from my seat.
I was just about to leave..
“that word. I will take this as a declaration of war..”
“as you please…….”
Shut up.
Kwaang!
It was a sudden situation.
I tried to ignore Roman Dmitry's words, but before he could finish his sentence, his face fell on the table..
Kwasik.
the table was broken.
blood spattered from face.
The capital guardians hurriedly tried to draw their weapons, but they were unable to move as if they were under a spell..
Powerful killing energy).
My body froze..
The guardians' faces turned pale in front of a predator they could not fight..
Roman Dmitry looked at them and said.
“Just give me 10 minutes. Bring my people. and…….”
Quack, quack, quack.
“Wow!!”
Taejun Moon's face was crushed on the floor..
A piece of the broken table hit his face, and Taejun Moon let out a piercing scream..
“Bring someone higher than this guy. Not just an investigator, but someone who can handle war..”
