Hahoe mask (4)

click! click!

Inside the park at dawn just before dawn.

Bright lights turned on everywhere were lighting up the darkness..

“What is this again?···.”

Park Han-cheol, an agent of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Ability Management Bureau, smoked a cigarette under a streetlight and looked at the scene..

There was a police line on one side of the park, and many people were walking around busily..

In the center of the site preservation signs all over the floor, there was a sentence left with a sea of ​​blood..

-execution completed

“Execution is a joke···.”

Park Han-cheol sighed and stuffed the cigarette butt into the portable ashtray..

He trudged towards the police line and approached a person who was talking on the phone in a corner..

“···Yes, I understand. Then please continue.”

He seemed to have just finished talking and put his smartphone in his arms. Park Han-cheol patted him on the back and spoke to him..

“Is there anything that came out??”

“Ah, senior.”

Immediately after the dispatched 119 members discovered the scene, the incident was reported to the police and was soon forwarded to the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ability Management Bureau..

“First of all, it is human blood. They say it's just one person's blood..”

“···Then he's definitely dead.”

The amount of blood remaining at the scene far exceeded the lethal amount..

Following on-site preservation and evidence collection, the results of forensic analysis were coming out one by one..

“And it is said that a large amount of dark magic was detected in the blood..”

“Dark magic? Is the owner of the blood a dark magic user??”

“That doesn't seem to be the case. The cells died due to overexposure to dark magic... and it is highly likely that this was the cause of the bleeding..”

“···Could it be Mine??”

Demon, a returnee who gained supernatural power from another world and returned..

At first, it was used to refer to vampires or werewolves, but these days it has also become a general term for those who abuse powers such as curses or necromancy..

If unclean power is used for a long time, the user's mind is often polluted and the user often becomes a criminal..

“The results of the nearby CCTV investigation are... well, as clean as expected. Nothing has come out other than the female victim..”

“If you're going to do something like this, it's only natural that you'll do it. But it bothers me that there are no bodies..”

Wow~

A vibrating sound rang from Park Han-cheol’s pocket..

He took out his smartphone, checked the text message, and nodded..

“The victim came to his senses. They say they're scared and plan to comfort them and figure out the situation..”

“Thank goodness. I was at a loss because there was no information..”

The woman who was found unconscious at the scene was immediately taken to the hospital..

I had been unable to come to my senses and was just stamping my feet, but now I felt like I was making progress..

As they were looking at the crime scene and having a long conversation, a member of the forensics team who was investigating the scene approached them..

“The belongings matched the fingerprints taken at home. There, a lot of evidence of murder was identified and analyzed..”

Items left at the scene.

Among them, the items, excluding the smartphone that appeared to belong to the female victim, contained evidence of several murders..

A smartphone containing a tape recorder containing the victims' screams and photos, and a wallet containing the ID card of the person who appears to be the owner..

As soon as we confirmed that, we found out the identity and address and sent an investigation team, and now the results are out..

“He was a serial killer, he definitely deserved to die..”

“Tsk, it's still a private sanction. There is nothing more dangerous than a person with powers, not even a child, falling into the game of hero..”

In a country governed by law, people ignore the law and put their own beliefs first..

From the perspective of protecting order, they were dangerous elements comparable to terrorists..

Soon after, the call came again..

“okay. Yes, yes. All right. Good luck!.”

After finishing the call, Park Han-cheol hung up and looked around the scene again..

“···I received a statement from the victim..”

“What is it??”

“Well, as expected. It is said that the killer appeared while passing through the park, and that someone appeared and saved him just before he was killed..”

“You think I saved you? I'm not sure?”

“Wow, this is ambiguous... They say the victim's reaction is very strange..”

Park Han-cheol frowned, scratched his head, sighed, and continued speaking..

“It is said that he lost consciousness as soon as he saw him, but judging by his statement, he seemed to be more afraid of that person than the killer..”

“···Because it looks so scary?”

“No, I didn't see his face. They say she was wearing a mask.”

He paused for a moment and pointed to one side of the scene..

There were words written in blood left there..

“If you go to Hahoe Mask,.”

A picture drawn next to the text.

The junior looked at him closely for a moment and then scratched his head..

“Ah, that was a Hahoe mask? I thought I drew some kind of weird smiling face again..”

“I just heard this and realized it too.”

“Well, it must be scary to see a crazy person wearing a Hahoe mask in the middle of the night. But is that worse than the murderer who stabbed you right in front of you??”

“well···. That should be natural.”

While they were talking, they looked at the dawning sky and sighed at the same time..

“In the end, I stayed up all night again today..”

“I had no expectations from the beginning. I wish you could give me some time to sleep.”

They soon trudged on with slumped shoulders to write a report..

***

Korean Returnees Association Seoul Southern Branch.

“Branch Manager, we have received a request for cooperation from the Ability Management Bureau..”

“also? They say that all the time. What's the problem again??”

Branch Manager Yoon Ji-yoon grumbled, took the document handed to him by the secretary, and began to read it slowly..

“hmm? This... looks somewhat familiar.?”

“I also researched related materials and attached them at the back..”

“oh! As expected, Secretary Kim. very capable?”

The branch manager paused for a moment while flipping through the documents..

“Arrest of three precious metal robbers... That certainly came out in their statements. Hahoe Mask.”

“I think it is highly likely that they are the same person..”

“Yes, I guess so. First, hand over our data and cooperate as we ask..”

She put down the papers, instructed her secretary, and leaned back on the chair..

As the secretary went out the door, she put her legs on the desk and tilted her head back..

‘Well, honestly, I don’t think Hahoe Mask is bad.···.’

Public security continues to deteriorate, and there is a severe lack of manpower to protect it..

I thought that if we could punish the bad guys and reduce their numbers, that wouldn't be a bad thing..

It's true that I got help last time..

‘But he ended up committing murder. It would have been better if they had just subdued him like last time and handed him over..’

Murder due to private sanctions.

Even though the opponent was a vicious serial killer, the country had no choice but to accept it sensitively..

‘Since we are going to be active anyway, it would be nice if you would join our Guardian..’

Even if the government agency, the Ability Management Bureau, finds him, he will not be severely punished..

They'll probably try to scout you in exchange for some amnesty..

He seems to have the ability and his own sense of justice, so if you can keep him on a leash, he will be a great horse..

“Haha, I have to work. Day.”

She sat down straight in her chair and started working..

Recently, as public order has become chaotic, there has been more work to do..

Complaints from subordinate guardians are increasing..

‘Ah, I want to smash everything..’

That was my honest feeling..

***

“As expected, I feel refreshed after destroying everything..”

I nodded in satisfaction when I saw Hans return from his night patrol..

My first practical use of ministry magic was very satisfying..

At first, I only focused on movement and casted magic as evenly as possible..

This magic is because the completeness of the detection network increases over time..

The number of objects enchanted by contagion will continue to increase, and all you have to do is select the ones that are helpful and maintain them..

Therefore, at this early stage, we had no choice but to narrow the detection range..

‘But even with that, there were more than five incidents last night..’

The biggest thing was punishing the serial killer..

The rest was ended by instilling a curse of fear and punishing them appropriately..

Wouldn't it be appropriate to just castrate a rapist?.

‘I didn't kill it.’

Even thinking about it again, it was nothing short of merciful..

I looked at Hans for a moment and then took him outside again to set up the detection network..

They say it will grow over time, but you will be able to scale faster if you do it yourself..

‘At least we need to make it enough to cover the whole of Seoul..’

I realized this for sure.

Public security has deteriorated to ridiculous levels right now..

‘And I need to find out about them too..’

What caused public security to get to this point?.

A villain organization said to have achieved power.

“Uchachacha~ Then I decided to solve that problem with Hans. Now is the time to worry about the world beyond..”

I stretched and looked at Heinz II's situation..

More than a month has passed since I left Azantu..

Since I have young siblings, I didn't force myself to move..

Every time I passed through a village or city, I stayed in a comfortable accommodation, went sightseeing with my children, and moved slowly..

But I can't wander around like this forever with my kids..

Now that we were some distance away from Azantu, we had to find a place for the kids to settle down..

While I was contemplating the fate of the siblings, I heard a story from Diana..

‘Me... uncle. I'm not sure, but I heard that my uncle runs a small store in La Perla City..’

‘I had forgotten about it because I didn't have the energy to go far from Azantu, but when I heard that there was a city of La Perla in the direction we were going, it came to mind.···.’

He said he heard this from his parents a few years ago..

At first, he headed towards the center of the kingdom to get away from Azantu, but after hearing the story, he set his destination as La Perla City and moved on..

I don't know if the store is still open or its exact location, but it was much better than the situation where there were no measures..

Because I couldn't take care of it for the rest of my life..

I had some countermeasures, but it would still be better to stay with my blood relatives..

My uncle's family may not welcome my nephews who suddenly come to visit, but···.

‘All you have to do is pay a generous amount of child support with a little warning. I plan to visit regularly..’

Even if you are not in business, the more money you have, the better..

If you look at the situation and say you will support it regularly, wouldn’t you care for it more than your own child??

This is the first proper relationship I made after coming to this world..

If you use Song Dong-jin, it doesn't take much effort, so I was able to do this much..

Of course, there is a possibility that you will not be able to find your relatives, so you should prepare other methods..

I looked at the avatar who came back from exercising outside..

「Avatars that can be used with “Persona”.

“Hmm... should we call this guy 'Heinrich'?.”

-Entity Name: Heinrich

-Common characteristics: 「Mind Herb」, 「Persona」, 「Super Recovery」, 「Mysterious Index」」

-Individual characteristics: Boneless)」

-Special note: Han Seong-hyun's fourth avatar. Due to the influence of “boneless,” the effect increases during training, and additional corrections are given to physical combat and skill acquisition..

Walking around the sunny area as Heinz II was also slowly reaching its limits..

A race originally born to live in hiding in the dark..

I was lucky that I didn't get caught until now..

Of course, it took a lot of effort to do that, but.

‘A vampire in Acrich. All the forces that can be used are focused on the dark side. The Heinrich I am sending this time must be raised in a sunny location..’

I also had a plan in mind for him..

The skills given are also suitable for developing into a physical faction, so this is the icing on the cake..

While preparing for Heinrich's deployment, he focused his attention on Heinz II, who arrived at the city of La Perla at the right time..

***

At that time, an Internet bulletin board where anonymity was guaranteed..

-A story about seeing a Hahoe mask monster in the middle of the night.

There, information about sightings of the terrifying Hahoe Mask began to spread one by one..
