    Episode 222

    Korea was suffering from an untimely ‘serial murder case’.

    “A report has been received!”

    “also? Doesn’t this kid even sleep? “You don’t even eat?!”

    Decapitated corpses are found here and there day and night.

    Report calls come to the association from time to time.

    Because of this the Hunter Association employees were having a hectic day.

    “Why on earth are you so eager?”

    It wasn’t really a fuss.

    A world where serial killers are on the loose day and night committing murder as a hobby.

    But surprisingly there was no confusion among citizens.

    Rather the general reaction was a welcoming response and an atmosphere of support for the murderer.

    -Hey! You did something today too!

    -ㅉㅉ The news is late. You have already jumped 3 times today.

    -Related article link) ‘Vigilante Update’

    -Hey! You really jumped 3 times!

    – Busy busy! Modern society!

    -You work hard. I respect you.

    It had to be that way.

    The bodies that were found were all either vicious villains or criminals worth dying for.

    There were no exceptions.

    Even if the body was not on the list of villains when the investigation began the criminal activities that were committed behind the scenes would be revealed without a doubt.

    It was being revealed day by day that the criminal activities of unregistered villains who had not registered as hunters were running rampant in the shadows.

    In a way it is natural that the popularity of a serial killer who searches for such people one by one mercilessly cuts off their heads and then suddenly disappears is skyrocketing.

    People were calling him ‘Vigilante’.

    There was a series of testimonies from citizens whose lives were saved thanks to Vigilante.

    -Breaking News) “Thank you to the person who saved me.”

    -Interview video) “He is the savior of my life.”

    – Statement of conviction) “I hope you don’t get caught until the end.”

    -News) Vigilante! Korea is now a villain-free zone!

    – Haha a vigilante group that we only see in movies has appeared in our country.

    -The police and association hunters will be upset but it’s good because those who don’t deserve to die are dead.

    -I support Vigilante.

    -222 I’m rooting for you.

    -Please become a righteous murderer today as well.

    Thanks to this only the police and the hunter association were frustrated.

    “You’re really saying crazy things!”

    “If it’s going to be like this why is there a law?”

    “Don’t say anything. “It’s a crazy world where serial killers are popular.”

    The Republic of Korea was a country strictly ruled by law.

    This act of ignoring the law and directly punishing criminals was clearly illegal.

    There are serious crimes and Vigilante was only resolving the punishment through murder.

    Although the target of the crime is now limited to villains no one could be sure when Vigilante’s sword would suddenly turn to good citizens.

    “I still… just like this comment they are still only killing those who are worth dying for.”

    “You bastard! “Is that what comes out of our mouths?”

    “I’m sorry.”

    “Use it.”

    These were seniors who got into trouble with new recruits who were crushed after saying the wrong thing and couldn’t get their money back.

    “No why does no one know what to think about this guy who goes on a rampage like this?”

    “You couldn’t see it because it was dark? Does that make sense? “It’s clear that they are hiding their identity just because they helped them!”

    “First of all it is clear that he has stealth skills. “It doesn’t make sense that they are going on a rampage to this extent and there is no footage of them being caught on CCTV.”

    Hello.

    Director Lee Se-hwan who was leisurely watching the busy-looking employees from behind leaned against the window with a cup of mixed coffee in his mouth.

    Then I turned my gaze and looked out the darkened window.

    “….”

    The world was going crazy but mixed coffee was still sweet.

    After a cataclysm occurred around the world.

    Every day was a battlefield for the association’s employees due to the urgent incidents and accidents that came flooding in every day.

    As I was running around so frantically I got promoted my salary went up and I even became the head of the division.

    ‘I don’t know the history of life.’

    Life goes on in such a strange way.

    It seems like just yesterday that I had to take the police exam become a new detective follow a scary senior and catch criminals.

    ‘…I’ve been thinking about that a lot these days.’

    Criminals suddenly found dead?

    I don’t know why they’re making such a fuss because it’s such a strange thing.

    ‘It was common in my time.’

    In the past there were many people who even came to us and surrendered themselves crying and begging for them to be arrested.

    They say that if you don’t embroider you too will be eaten or something.

    ‘…Hehe. ‘That was a truly romantic era.’

    It was Director Lee Se-hwan who was reminiscing about the glory of the past when the arrest rate was ranked first in the country.

    Hello.

    Of course if you say something like this out loud you will be called an old man.

    Director Lee Se-hwan who was just sipping coffee and sighing alone was staring blankly at the glass door entrance as was his habit.

    As if waiting for someone.

    His eyes gradually deepened.

    This place which was once the Central Police Station was unusually incorporated into the Hunter Association when Woo Jin-cheol became the association president.

    But only the signboard changed.

    As I stare blankly at this place the interior of which is still the same as before faded memories that I had forgotten because I was too busy come to mind.

    ‘…Where on earth and what are you doing brother?’

    It’s already been over 5 years.

    A legend in the violent crime world who was a heavenly senior and colleague to Director Lee Se-hwan.

    ‘Detective Seong Jin-woo’ suddenly disappeared.

    Looking back all the moments I spent with him were the brightest and most brilliant moments during my detective career.

    I missed those days terribly.

    ‘I’m sure you’re doing well wherever you are but could you please come back soon?’

    okay. Actually there is nothing to worry about at all.

    Because he was always a very curious person.

    So when he suddenly disappeared no one was too worried.

    I firmly believed that he had gone off to solve a case on his own as always.

    I had no doubt that one day he would suddenly catch criminals like candy with a carefree face.

    But it’s been like that for over 5 years.

    He still hadn’t come back.

    Squeak-

    “…uh?”

    For a moment Director Lee Se-hwan could not believe his eyes.

    Suddenly the door opened and a familiar face came inside.

    Grab those guys who look tough at first glance like candy!

    “Brother tongue? No no…!”

    Suddenly I came to my senses.

    Director Se-Hwan Lee instantly gathered up the words he had spoken washed his eyes again and looked at the other person.

    He’s too young to be Seong Jin-woo’s older brother!

    But that face…!

    They look so much alike that it’s hard to believe they’re his biological sons right?

    “uh? “Uh huh?”

    “hello. My name is Seong Su-ho. “I have something to report…”

    “That’s right!”

    The association’s employees couldn’t help but be quite taken aback by the sight of Director Lee Se-hwan suddenly running towards Su-ho in a huff.

    and.

    Wow!

    “Haha! “You are Su-ho!”

    “Huh? yes?”

    This time it was Suho’s turn to be embarrassed.

    Se-Hwan Lee was a colleague who had worked with Jin-Woo Seong for a long time. I knew at least his son’s name.

    I’ve also seen pictures from when I was young. Of course it was my first time seeing him grow up like this.

    As soon as I saw Suho’s face I couldn’t help but burst into tears.

    It was because his face overlapped with his father’s.

    “Oh I’m sorry. I am in charge. Huh. “You are Seong Jin-woo’s son right?”

    “Do you know my father?”

    “I know. I was your father’s direct subordinate you bastard! Hahaha!”

    Director Lee Se-hwan released Suho from his tight embrace and introduced himself with a chuckle.

    “I see. hello. “My name is Seong Su-ho.”

    It was Suho who suddenly met his father’s subordinate.

    But if you think about it it wasn’t strange.

    Just two years ago this was the police station near the house where my father worked for a long time and among the police officers there at that time those who had awakened were assigned to the Hunter Association.

    It was only natural that there were one or two people left who knew my father.

    It was a bit of an awkward situation but Suho first handed over the people he had caught to the association employees.

    “I caught it on the way. “I think he was a villain but I guess they didn’t kill him because he was a common criminal.”

    “hmm?”

    The association employees tilted their heads at the words which had a strange meaning.

    And a little later I noticed that the faces of the villains who were brought in by Suho were terrified.

    After comparing their faces one by one they were indeed wanted miscellaneous criminals just as Suho said.

    ‘But why are these guys so scared?’

    If you look at the faces of these guys they don’t look like villains but rather like victims who barely survived the scene of a brutal murder.

    “Oh and if you go to this address you’ll find a few corpses. “It would have been reported a long time ago so please check…”

    “Could it be Vigilante?!”

    Suho shook his head with a wry smile as he looked at the burdensome gazes that were focused on him at the same time almost as if he was convulsing.

    “I’m not sure about that either.”

    I felt like it would be a hassle so I drew the line.

    ‘Kira how much has this guy been acting out in the past few days?’

    When I was sent out to hunt villains with Harmakan the corpses were disposed of neatly so it didn’t become this big of an issue.

    But when Kira was left alone she became a very famous person.

    ‘We’ll see later.’

    However it was still ambiguous to criticize the mistake.

    It seems like he only chose the people he really wanted to kill out of fear of being scolded by him later.

    These miscellaneous criminals who remained at the scene are proof of that.

    ‘for a moment.’

    Suddenly I had an ominous feeling.

    ‘Could it be in India?’

    Kira is now in India.

    There as per your original orders you will hide in Lio Xing’s shadow and follow him around.

    Rio Singh decided to remain in India for the time being to sort out the situation.

    He also sent other shadow soldiers in the shadow of Liu Zhikang who returned to China with the promise of a better future.

    In this way shadow soldiers had to be spread throughout the world whenever an opportunity arose so that whenever and wherever traces of foreign religion were discovered they could be immediately dispatched through shadow exchange like this time.

    However looking at the situation it seemed unlikely that Kira would remain calm in India.

    ‘Well I guess I’ll figure it out.’

    I had no intention of stopping him as long as he kept the line.

    It was an established belief in the hunter industry that for every villain lost the lives of 100 innocent people could be saved.

    Of course this is also something I heard from Kira.

    “anyway.”

    Kira took his mind off work and Suho brought up the real purpose of coming here.

    I was fortunate that the person who happened to be my father’s subordinate seemed to be a high-ranking person.

    Suho glanced at the name tag hanging around Director Lee Se-hwan’s neck and formally introduced himself.

    “Director Se-hwan Lee let me introduce myself again. I am Hunter Seong Su-ho the representative of the Woojin Guild. “The reason I came here was because of other business.”

    Stop.

    “…what?”

    Director Lee Se-hwan who was just happy to see Su-ho’s face because he looked like his father his expression hardened the moment he heard Su-ho’s words.

    “You are the representative of Woojin’s guild?”

    Ah this makes a difference.

    Director Lee Se-hwan looked at Su-ho again and Lee Chae appeared in his eyes.

    I realized it a little late because I was overjoyed.

    Now that I think about it I realize that this guy’s name is ‘Seong Su-ho’.

    ‘Anyway really… I wonder if he’s someone’s son.’

    I burst into laughter.
