Chapter 32: Scout Offer (4)
“Aaaaaaaargh!”
Screaming filled the inside the cabin of the vehicle. The driver and Attorney Yi Hyun also became shocked at the unexpected turn of events.
“W-What are you doing!!”
“Y-Yusung!”
The two of them did not know about 12-hour promise that Chun Yeowun and Yusung had made, so they had no idea about what was going on.
The driver quickly pulled the car to a stop at the side of the road. He became enraged and turned around to raise his voice at Chun Yeowun.
[Ugh… it’s okay. Let’s head over to the hospital.]
Jo Yusung sent a telepathic message to stop him from doing that.
[B-but! That guy’s crazy! He’s insane!]
Surprisingly, the driver also knew how to send telepathic messages. This was because the driver was also a Yulinian who was trained in martial arts. He spoke through telepathy with rage.
[You worked so hard to take him out of the cell overnight, and how can he just cut down your…]
[It’s okay. Just go!]
The driver saw Jo Yusung’s pale but furious face and gritted his teeth, then turned away to put his hand back on the car’s steering wheel. There was no need to make Jo Yusung’s rage target back at himself.
‘I underestimated this man.’
As the driver expected, Jo Yusung was barely able to surpress his anger. He was no match against the man anyway and was in the process of hiring Chun Yeowun, so he couldn’t let out his anger.
‘…I guess this is a kind of warning.’
Jo Yusung figured this to be a warning. It was a warning to show what might happen if Jo Yusung was trying to use or trick Chun Yeowun into something.
‘…He’s probably not from Forces of Justice at least.’
If he were from the Forces of Justice, there was no way he could be this cold and deliberate. Anyhow, Jo Yusung figured he had to be careful around this man as there was no way to expect what this man might do next.
After the pain subsided a bit, Jo Yusung quickly pressed on blood points by his wrist. The bleeding stopped and Jo Yusung took out a handkerchief to wrap the cut wound. He then reached down to pick up his cut down hand.
That’s when his hand was brought up into the air by an invisible force. Jo Yusung became surprised. He had felt it from the beginning, but this man had a very deep and powerful internal energy, fitting to be a superior master level warrior.
‘Whew… I should ask him for permission.’
They were already on their way toward the hospital, but Jo Yusung tried to ask for permission from Chun Yeowun anyway.
“…Thank you. I am sorry, but can we stop by…”
Before he could finish, Chun Yeowun spoke.
“Don’t mind about me. Go to that ‘hospital’ first.”
‘?!’
Jo Yusung became surprised.
‘Did I speak through telepathy?’
There was no way to tap into telepathic messages without using a special sound wave machine. Jo Yusung thought it weird, but soon thought otherwise.
‘Oh well.’
It was natural for a man to want to go to a hospital if his hand was cut. Maybe he was being too paranoid as the man had been doing unexpected things from the beginning.
At the Headquarters of Simyang City, 3rd team office of the Homicides Department.
“What the hell are you talking about?!”
The man who was shouting in rage from the office was 3rd Team Leader, Yimyung. In front of him, there was a short-haired female detective, Dan Younghyun, trying to hush her team leader.
“Ssssh! Boss, you’re too loud!”
“I know I am! And how in the world can I be silent when… UGH!”
Yimyung grabbed his aching wound by the shoulder. It had only been a few hours since his regenerative treatment had been done, so he still had pain coming from it. All detectives within the 3rd team were looking at him. They all seemed to be concerned about their team leader who came running in with hospital clothing into the office.
“Boss, why don’t you go back to the hospital and get some rest first? I just finished being questioned, and it’s not like we can do anything now.”
Dan Younghyun tried to calm Yimyung down. She understood why Yimyung was so infuriated, but there was nothing they could do now. The incident was too big to be handled by themselves, so the PSB had a special investigation team being deployed to further work on the matter. They were no longer involved in the investigation.
“This is also for the special units team…”
“Special units?! Captain and eight of our detectives died! It can’t just be their side of the work! And we have freed a likely suspect because of some outside pressure?!”

Yimyung shouted toward Dan Younghyun, to which she sighed. This kind of attitude and persistence gave Yimyung the nickname of ‘idiot’ within the PSB.
‘Ugh… there we go again.’
But she did not hate her boss. Yimyung did not like following orders or going by the books, but he was an affectionate and kind man. But of course, only detectives from the 3rd team knew this. Dan Younghyun then turned to other detectives and spoke.
“He’s starting again. Can someone take him to the hospi…”
“I should go talk with the Director.”
