14 : In this world, the police deal with the dark.
money is gone It evaporated like gasoline and never came back.
Suddenly, the price of smashing the door without thinking back and forth came back to my wallet, and the money I hadn’t had disappeared like a dream overnight.
Now that we have no money to buy rice, are we in a situation where we have to survive on the bean sprouts and bean sprouts left in the refrigerator to eat? And my ankle went out to break down the door in a hurry.
He judged that it was a dangerous situation to go crazy and crashed into it without hesitation. Only my wallet and ankle are out. This will break the hospital bill.
It was only for a while that I laughed lonely at the ruthlessness of the sky. I made eye contact with the person in front of me. She giggles and waves her hands.
“What is this from the wind in the morning? Breaking into a sleeping person’s room. Cops these days are really dangerous.”
I couldn’t raise my head at Yunari’s words as she laughed.
She, who had been sleeping soundly in that shit, also woke up as the commotion continued. I was frightened when I saw the half-shattered door barely hanging on its hinges.
Seeing me kneeling in front of the boss outside the door and praying, the first thing she said was right above.
Originally, even if Yunari woke up, she wouldn’t be able to stay in a room with a smashed door, so she’d start with a new room.
Waiting for the sun to rise, I was going to spend some time outside. Yunari was suddenly kind to me.
“It must be urgent for the detective to come at a time like this. Let’s talk in the room.”
To be honest, I was very grateful for her kindness, as I had to swallow only the cold air outside, let alone the sauna due to sudden expenses.
Thinking so, Yunari continued with a mischievous smile.
“It must be urgent for you to break down the door and come in at dawn like this. hahahaha.”
“I’m sorry.”
damn i’m crazy why did you do that Are you very tired
I’m narrowing my eyebrows and regretting my actions. As if enjoying my reaction, Yunari laughed and said,
But I had nothing to say. In the early hours when the noise of life did not rise, I smashed the door of a person who slept well and crashed into it. Even in the room of a woman sleeping naked.
While Yunari is being protected by the police to avoid any danger. Although you can make excuses that you suddenly heard a noise from the room and entered the room.
I don’t listen to excuses. I sighed as I looked at the broken lights rolling across the floor with resentful eyes.
At the same time, I remembered the original purpose of coming here and looked at Yunari.
The reason I came here is to make sure that Yu Na-Ri has not fallen into a villain named Overmind by falling for the thread of Sai, and if not, I am suggesting that she join the special task force.
That’s my current purpose… … .
Yunari turned on the coffee pot in her room and was putting instant coffee powder in a paper cup.
It was as if several of the sharp thorns I felt while watching Yunari were missing.
Did you wake up less from sleep? Well, it’s safe to say that I haven’t woken up enough to make coffee for the person who showed up doing this shit from this early morning.
… … no Usually there is no such reaction.
Even relatively shy police officers are usually frightened or annoyed when they suddenly come in and make a fuss, but that kind of reaction?
My intuition didn’t alert me to the danger even with Yunari in front of me, but I wonder if I didn’t know.
The police are the ones who first suspect things that don’t make sense.
“That’s why – Detective-nim, you’re running rampant as usual. hey It’s the same about New Hope, and to say that confidently in front of reporters at a press conference.”
“I was able to understand why that ‘woman’ was hanging on the detective~ But she said she was in high school right now, right? Will that child become such a nice body when he grows up?”
“wow. It seems that heroes are different from genes. I am envious of being loved by such a beauty.”
Yunari speaks while waving the long sleeves of her lab coat. I asked after pondering for a moment at the woman who only raised the corner of her mouth and her eyes did not smile.
“hmm. Are you kidding me?”
“yes!”
“Then can I hit one?”
“no.”
I don’t like it because I think I’ll die if I get hit by the detective. Saying that, Yunari’s gaze turned to the door with the broken hinges.
The part that protrudes from the middle of the door because I kicked it is terrifyingly clear in my eyes.
I shut my mouth like a porcupine and shrugged my shoulders. Yunari smiled and handed me a paper cup filled with instant coffee, and started drinking the other herself.
But I left the paper cup she gave me on the floor and didn’t put it in my mouth.
Overmind’s abilities begin to activate with simple contact or feeding bodily fluids.
According to what was said in the novel, the short contact with the Overmind is simply the limit of adjusting the level of fatigue accumulated for a while.
It is her ability to kill people when it accumulates over and over again.
Of course, if the criterion for ‘repeat’ is physical contact, dozens of times, and if it’s bodily fluid, you have to spray enough to wet the whole body, so it’s hardly usable in battle or places like that.
Physical contact can happen on a daily basis, and bodily fluids can be put into things to eat, such as blood or saliva. By putting it like this coffee.
Although there are restrictions on its use, it is a terrifying psychic power even taking into account the restrictions. That’s why I’m hoping that Yunari won’t become a villain called Overmind.
Not only her psychic powers, but also as a researcher, she is an outstanding person recognized by Dr. Kooksoo.
He found out about the incapacitating drug alone and approached me. Afterwards, he succeeded in collecting evidence of the corruption of the chosen ones and the special investigation team 2.
His ability to infiltrate and collect information is good enough to be suspicious.
Honestly, isn’t this guy better at investigating than most cops?
It’s sad that you can be better than me. If you can attract a person with such a good ability to the task force, it will be of great help in chasing Sai.
I can’t help it or not
Clearly organizing my thoughts, I naturally took my eyes off the coffee and looked at Yunari.
I’m a little sorry to have this doubt, but as I said already. It was because it was quite strange to show good intentions in such a good way when he started such a joke from this morning.
If it were me, I would have thrown it out the window to tell the bastard who did the same thing to get out of here.
… … Is it possible that I have a dirty personality?
Although it was short, I wanted to have time for self-reflection, but Yunari’s star-shaped eyes staring at me caught my eye.
After moistening my lips with saliva for a while at that gaze, I spoke of the reason I had come to think of beforehand, hiding the real reason for coming here.
“Last evening. I raided and disposed of the psychic stimulant factory made by Sai. The operation with Hero New Hope was a success. It seems that the people above are thinking of using whatever they can to arrest Sai after seeing this.”
“… … .”
Yunari, who was silently listening to my words, opened her eyes wide in surprise. I narrowed my eyebrows at my words that followed, then smiled wryly.
If it were her, she would be able to guess what I was thinking with just these words.
Still, I’m saying this because I don’t think that if she really fell into an overmind, she would be able to get over it with some silly wordplay or pressure.
How she fell after meeting Sai is not shown in the novel.
It’s all about being knocked down by Mina’s hand while running wild with the appearance of letting go of reason while saying something strange that he could open a new world.
However, until the very end, she continued to impoverish her colleagues with her abilities until she faked her death.
It is described in such a way that no one ever doubted Yunari even though he made it to a level that people could not stand.
Until I lost my temper at the end, I knew that I couldn’t bet on a psychological warfare against a woman who was thorough and meticulous, so I decided to use the straight attack method.
Throw the bait openly and watch the reaction. If in doubt, bite, otherwise die.
It’s the most frequent interrogation method I’ve done while working as a detective.
“Why am I saying this, you know? The purpose is to catch up. Your skills are needed there.”
“Is this a scouting proposal? hey… … . If you go in there, will you turn a blind eye to what you’ve done so far?”
Yunari, who had an arrogant face, soon asked what seemed to be something she was worried about.
Her face was the strangest-looking woman she’d ever seen, so her condition was undetermined.
Should I still throw some more bait?
“It has to be negotiated. Well, let me be honest. I would like to acknowledge your abilities and join the special team. Before that, I want to know what you are thinking.”
“The special team is a special team, as they say. As shown in the news, the military is like a suicide commando rushing to catch a monster that couldn’t help it. It’s such a place, so I’m trying to check it.”
“Because I thought I couldn’t win anyway, or because I had a grudge against the world. Wouldn’t it be strange for someone to come out and say something to the old woman?”
“… … .”
At my words, Yunari tilted her head and stared at me. I met her gaze head on.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just like the appearance of superpowers. Her appearance is unusual.
After waking up, the purple hair and star-shaped pupils gave the impression of seeing a human from another world.
But that’s it. As if trying to understand my intentions, she was staring at me without stopping for a second.
It was like having a snowball fight because I was staring with my eyes straining to catch even one of her trivial actions.
But that’s for a while. Yunari let out a faint ‘Heng’ sound, then muttered in a grievous tone with a paper cup filled with instant coffee in her mouth.
“It’s a scout proposal, but you mean that you doubt it because you might betray it, right? under! Team leader Yagi and all the cops around me are gone, so there’s nothing I can do about it. In this country, if you have a conscience, you will suffer so fucking hard. Right?”
“… … ?”
After saying that, Yunari drank the contents of the paper cup in one bite. Lying on his side on the bed, he starts scratching his stomach proudly.
I expected reactions such as getting angry at me for doubting myself, insisting on my innocence, or not going in if I was going to doubt that much.
What the hell is the point of suddenly lying down in front of an extramarital man and scratching his stomach? Is it sexual harassment? Is it a Me Too attempt? To think of all sorts of things and stare at her in awe.
Yunari lay flat on the bed and started talking with her eyes on the ceiling.
“To be honest now. I used to think I liked what that crazy woman did. I wondered if everything would change if everyone became a psychic.”
“But seeing a crazy person made me want to be the same even if a person becomes a psychic. You have to work hard to change. It’s like an idiot to say shit to people you don’t even know.”
She began to spit out words. Could that be a story about her values that did not appear in the original work? Or is it a story about something that happened in the past that only she knows about?
I couldn’t tell.
But seeing her say that, it’s hard to believe, but my intuition whispered to me that it was unlikely that she would degenerate into an overmind like the original.
“So, I’ll go to the special team. yes what I think it’s pretty cool to help someone like detectives with their work.”
Yunari, who was speechless, turned her back to me and muttered as if she was trying to hide her embarrassment.
I wondered what the hell had happened to say such a thing, so I wondered if I should ignore the whispers of my intuition and dig a little more.
I couldn’t refuse someone who said he’d help, knowing how dangerous the task force was, or more precisely, how dangerous the madman was.
If all of this is a lie, and if you’re trying to do something according to Sai’s orders, you’ll be thrown straight into a cell at the slightest hint of it.
What will happen with Mina? what is stress Stress loses its value in the face of overwhelming force.
With that thought in mind, I nodded and put the half-cooled coffee she handed me into my mouth.
“Is that so? thanks.”
In my own way, I put it in my mouth as a meaning of trust.
however. what. why are you so sleepy
“Hey… … you.”
I had a hunch that there was something in the coffee and glared at Yunari. On such a day, Yunari looked down from her stomach on the bed and said in an absurd tone.
“wow. Is it true that you’re about to pass out right after you’ve just lowered your stress level a little? Have you been to the battlefield?”
“I used my ability because I looked like I was going to die right away, but I didn’t know that this much effect would come directly. Ah, my ability is to control my stress level. Is it more effective than aromatherapy?”
Hearing that, I realized that her ability could also be used to lower stress levels.
I knew that she was considerate of me in the consciousness that would go off immediately.
Bodily fluids are saliva or blood in coffee. If you cut yourself open to get blood, I would have noticed. Does that mean you put your saliva in it?
“This dog-”
Can’t you report this for sexual harassment? Falling face down on the floor, struggling to stare at Yunari with only the will to swear at her.
Seeing me like that, she smiled as if she remembered something.
“Ah, it’s an angle where you can make fun of me by taking a strange photo composition while fainting. I think this is fine. Oh don’t worry No threats, just pure, personal possession.”
Sipal is crazy too.
Suddenly, I saw Yunari, whose face was red and her mouth was trembling. Right before I lose consciousness. I raised my arm with my middle finger toward Yunari. I just lost consciousness.
The sleep immediately after fainting was a comfortable sleep that I hadn’t felt in days. Really.
