218 – Side Story – Reunion Complete
‘The worst always comes without warning.’
That simple yet clear sentence is the one that most accurately represents my current situation.
“Ugh…!”
– Kkeeeikk…!
When I realized that my tire was flat and quickly applied the brakes, it was already too late.
– Kugwagwagwagwang…!
“…Big.”
The interior of the vehicle is distorted and shock is transmitted.
The airbag popped out late, but it did not help much because the impact was so great.
“Cluck, cough…”
Thanks to this, I was lying blankly for a while with my face buried in the steering wheel and coughing, and a cough burst out of my mouth.
“…Tsk.”
I peeked at the corner of my mouth with my sleeve to check, and sure enough, blood was coming out.
Damn. No matter how many gold medals she has in martial arts, she is not the kind of woman who can withstand even internal injuries.
– Empty…!
Anyway, I couldn’t just sit in the car like this, so I gritted my teeth and kicked open the dented car door.
‘…Will I be able to survive?’
I suddenly wondered if there was any point in doing this, but I still have to struggle as much as possible.
Why? That’s because I have a reason why I shouldn’t die now.
Honestly, it’s an unbelievable memory that seems like a dream now, and there’s no evidence that something like that will ever happen.
Nevertheless, I must survive.
“Smartphones are…”
[Pro gamer Kim Han-byeol, returning to active duty rather than as a coach? A new wind blowing in the E-sports world]
[Child actor Kim Sae-byeok goes missing again. It was recently discovered in a mansion by paparazzi, but is now found to be unknown again… According to anonymous testimonies who said they were at the scene at the time of the incident…]
[A new perspective on recent serial disappearance cases: The more hikikomori you are, the higher your chances of going missing? According to the disappearance case that has been excluded so far…]
With that thought in mind, I turned on my smartphone for a moment, stared blankly at the news articles I had set as my wallpaper, and then sighed.
“As expected, the signal doesn’t work.”
Before this happens, I wanted to say hello to everyone. In the end, will I not be able to do it and die?
No, you won’t recognize me anyway because my appearance and age are different.
In the first place, it seems like everyone except one person is not in this world.
“…Okay.”
I looked confused for a moment at that thought, but then I gritted my teeth again and stood up.
“Even if it means dying… You shouldn’t give up…”
You can see an abandoned factory in the distance.
I might be able to hide there before all the guys who attacked me arrive.
Of course, this is my very personal wish.
Still.
“You would have done that, right…?”
The night sky is very clear today.
.

– Kkeiiiiik…
Even when I barely escaped the scene of the accident and opened the tightly closed door of the abandoned factory, there was still very little hope left in me.
– Click…!
“……..!”
But that flimsy hope was cruelly shattered as soon as I took a step into the factory, which was filled with the smell of dust.
“Oh my…”
“…………”
“Who is this…?”
As soon as I entered, the inside of the factory was bright enough to make me squint, and it was already full of customers.
“What on earth is the just new female prosecutor who completely wiped out our organization, which had been in existence for the past several decades, doing here?”
They were all greeting me with weapons and homemade firearms, so it seemed like they had planned to set a trap.
“…Unfortunately, looking at you guys, it looks like we weren’t able to completely eradicate them.”
“Well, compared to the power of the past, it’s just a remnant.”
When I look at them coldly and sarcastically, the guy who is presumed to be the leader returns the same sarcastic tone.
“Some crazy prosecutor who lives somewhere ignored all orders from her superiors and accepted them.”
“……..”
“It looks like he has some strengths in the new subject? No, it’s not that high, but is he at least taking advantage of his weaknesses?”
I simply put pressure on her superiors based on the information I gained from my previous experience with the National Intelligence Service.
I didn’t find a particular weakness, but I don’t think that excuse will work.
“Well, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
“…Are you going to kill me?”
I lightly ask a question with a half-resigned mind, and a voice full of murder returns.
“Honestly, I don’t know what kind of unfair treatment you had against our organization.”
Yes, even if it were me, I wouldn’t understand.
“Well, since we touched more than one or two places… I guess we can hold a grudge.”
The reason I became a prosecutor in this life was to take revenge on the organization that killed me in my previous life and turned my friend into a half-baby thanks to them.
Fortunately, using the experience and information from my previous life, I succeeded in destroying the political forces that were colluding with them and disintegrating the organization.

“But, I should have known this.”
I had no idea things would turn out like this. I feel a little regretful.
“…The organization bites off its enemy’s legs until the end.”
Don’t show off and just wait for ‘him’ until your hair turns white again.
This will definitely be the last time my life repeats itself.
Nevertheless, I promised to meet him again.
“It’s cute, like a puppy in heat.”
Tears were about to come out, but I swallowed them with difficulty and glared at the leader of the remnants in a voice filled with laughter.
“…Just cut the cruciate ligament.”
The response that came back was truly terrifying.
“I’ve thought about it for a long time, but one face is even and even…”
I don’t think I needed to listen to the bullsh*t that followed.
‘…It’s disgusting how ugly your face is.’
Right now, I have a pistol loaded with five rounds in my arms.
An ordinary person who has no experience with such firearms may not know, but I, who have devoted most of my life to fighting bloody battles, am confident that I hit all five shots.
But the problem is, I’m not the only one among the people gathered here holding a gun.
Furthermore, there is only one person here, but there are more than 20 people over there, as you can guess by looking at them.
‘…If this was that world and not the real world.’
I can’t help but suddenly feel that way.
If it were ‘that world’ rather than this world where guns are omnipotent, they would all have been easily defeated.
My memories are fading day by day, perhaps as a result of my past life, but at least it is definitely a place where I can do that.
‘And, it’s also where you are…’
Suddenly, I recall ‘his’ face in my mind.
The head is black. Eyes are light blue. Appearance is my preference from beginning to end.
But is it because of my mood that the image is blurry, unlike in the past?
No matter how different the time axes of that world and this world are, it is natural that time has passed.
It is no wonder that you have become a handsome middle-aged person by now.
Maybe you have already become a curly old man?
But if that is not the case.
If he is not already in that world…
‘…Then there is no reason to stay alive.’
After finishing my thoughtless thought for a moment, I began to cast a cynical glance at the gang members who had slowly begun to approach me after receiving orders from the leader.
“Tsk…”
Of course, I am confident that I will knock them all out with force, but this is not a movie or a drama and there is no way the gang members holding guns will just sit still.
Then there is only one way left.
I’m going to put an end to this. Quickly pull out my gun and shoot only those who need to be killed the most.
First of all, I hit the boss, I hit his right arm, I hit the guy who looked the biggest, and then I hit the guy who was looking at me with an unpleasant look from earlier.
And the last step…
Yes, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to put an end to this tragic cycle of reincarnation with my own hands.
I wanted to die in his arms if possible.
Still, it’s better than being a toy for those guys.
– Sigh…!
Thinking of that and smiling, I quickly took out a pistol from my pocket.
“Second, it’s a gun!”
“Uh, where did I get something like that…!”
It seems stupid. Did they think that they, too, would have illegal homemade guns and that I would not?
– Sigh…
Smiling at that fact, I pointed my gun at the leader, who looked embarrassed.
“What are you doing? Shoot…!”
“Let’s not meet again in hell.”
Soon, before the other stupid gang members could react, he pulled the trigger and whispered that.
“Because it will make you feel dirty.”
When I think about it, will he go to heaven or hell?
For me, the place where he is is heaven, and the place where he is not is hell, but this is quite an important issue.
– Crash…
Anyway, what does it matter?
– Tick…
If it doesn’t work out, you just have to go through hell to find it again…
– Tick, tick…
“…Huh?”
.
.
.
.
.
She pulled the trigger several times, but when her pistol did not fire, the female prosecutor’s complexion instantly turned pale.
“This is a bit of a disaster…”
Eventually, she quietly bit her lip and raised her head.
“”………….?””
For some reason, the eyes of her gang members, who had been pointing their guns at her just moments ago, were directed not at her but at the large window next to her.
“What…? That is.”
“…Are you a salty guy?”
“No, is that possible…”
This was because a suspicious figure wearing a mask and a cloak was sitting quietly on her window sill with his legs crossed, bathed in the moonlight of the night sky.
“Hey, what are you…?”
– Crash…
When the leader, who was watching the situation with wary eyes, asked a question in a sharp voice, the guns of his subordinates all turned towards him.
“Well…?”
However, despite this, an unidentified person sat down completely unfazed and opened his mouth in a voice mixed with laughter.
“Wouldn’t it be quicker to ask that over there rather than me?”
As she gestured politely with her hand to the female swordsman who had been holding on to her pistol until then, the eyes of the rest of her group all focused on her again.
“…………”
But there was no answer from her.
She was just blankly staring at the unidentified person who suddenly appeared on the window frame.
“What… Did we know each other?”
“Well, then the story goes faster.”
The members of the organization, who were watching him with open eyes, soon began to walk towards him with dumbfounded expressions.
“Hey, where am I now…”
– Sigh…
And at that very moment, an unidentified person quietly raised his hand up.
– Pod…!!!
“”………….!?!?””
From that very moment, something unbelievable begins to unfold before your eyes.
“…Huh!?”
“What is this…!”
“Quaaah!!!”
The gang members who were pointing their guns at the window just a moment ago suddenly begin to fall down helplessly.
“…Card?”
That was when the leader, who found the trump card stuck like a knife in their hearts and eyes, was startled and took a step back.
– Sigh…!
“…….!!!”
Suddenly, a wildly moving yoyo jumps out of the window on the other side and instantly wraps around his neck.
“Kek… Kkuk…”
The leader, who was pulled to the window and stuck in the window, beginning to strangle himself, struggles with a red face and looks around.
“I-I can’t live like this…!”
“Let’s try to resist…!”
“Are these people crazy?”
For some reason, among the remnants, all the low-level gang members in charge of chores were turning their eyes and attacking their superiors.
“This…What on earth…What…”
The leader stared blankly at the scene, which was like a bad nightmare, in his fading mind.
“…So, why did you touch me?”
A masked man slowly walked in front of him and tapped his shoulder with a cold smile.
“It’s mine.”
Although it was my first time seeing his face, I was able to instinctively recognize him as he once had a huge organization in his hands and moved and ruled.
“Ugh… Damn… Damn…”
“I should have known the topic…”
Even as someone who ran the largest criminal organization in the country, he had disturbed a hive that he could not handle.
“Where on earth… Did it come from…”
“…Hmm, well.”
This is why things ended up like this. He was the one who wanted to know where he had disturbed the beehive lurking around.
“A parallel world with superpowers?”
The answer that the man, who was still radiating a murderous spirit that made all my bones go numb even when he was making eye contact, was completely absurd to the end.
‘Poop… I stepped on it.’
After such a meaningless feeling, even his ugly struggles to breathe as he was left alone slowly stopped.
“”…………””
Soon silence began to fall in the abandoned factory.
.
.
.
.
.
“…..Ah.”
After making a dazed expression for a while, the prosecutor came to his senses and soon opened his eyes and began to look around.
“…………”
There was a bloody smell everywhere.
Except for her and the man wearing her mask, it seemed like there was no living thing inside this factory.
“Ha… hahahaha.”
It was a situation that would not have been surprising to most people, but for some reason, laughter burst out of her mouth as she looked around at her surroundings.
“I was worried I might be too late.”
At that very moment, the masked man quietly approaches her and opens his mouth in a low voice.
“…It’s late.”
“Hmm.”
Hearing the slightly cold tone of the woman in front of him, he began to quietly scratch her head.
“I’ve already read the comic book about someone with light blue eyes 100 times.”
“……..”
“The prince who said he would come to save me showed no signs of coming… But I promised him something, so I waited and waited…”
As she looks at him like that, the woman’s voice as she continues her words begins to tremble.
“…My memories became increasingly faint, so I almost gave up, right?”
Before she knew it, tears were forming in her eyes, even though it didn’t seem like it at all.
“According to my time axis, 20 years have already passed.”
“…I was there for 10 years.”
“Hmph.”
And it was the same for the masked man, whose eyes were sharper than she remembered.
“Take off your mask.”
– Sigh…
He carefully takes off his mask at the woman’s request.
“…Of course, I always think about it.”
Then she smiled and began to touch with her hands the real girl, not the one depicted in the cartoon, the girl she had dreamed of for so long, the girl she had almost completely forgotten about when riding the hippopotamus.

“You look handsome.”
“…You too.”
Then the man also caresses her face and mutters.
“Even though my appearance changes every time I reincarnate, my beauty is always the same.”
“…Does that include Lumia?”
“That can’t be right.”
“I had a long conversation.”
“hahahaha…”
Before they knew it, tears were flowing from their eyes.
“…By the way, I think beauty isn’t the only thing that doesn’t change.”
The men stared at each other for a moment, then opened their mouths again.
“If not beauty, then what?”
“…Your name.”
“Aha.”
She pretended not to know what he was saying and asked a question, but when her man answered, her face blushed and she avoided his gaze.
＞ Dear!! This is the limit now!!!
“”…….!!!””
But at that very moment, a mechanical sound began to echo beyond the window.
＞ Avoiding tracking by twisting the dimensional axis also has its limits!!!
＞ If you don’t return to the original world within 1 minute, you will definitely get caught!! This is a violation of dimensional rules!!!
In the eyes of the woman who clearly heard the words coming from the shadows perched on the railing of an abandoned building in the distance, a feeling of anxiety lingered for a moment.
“Over there…”
“Hey, there you are.”
Something urgently came out of her mouth, but the man was one step ahead and intercepted the words.
“Isn’t this a difficult situation?”
“…Ah.”
When the woman realized that he had heard those words 10 years ago in a very similar situation, she relaxed and answered in a soft voice.
“…It certainly seems like that. It’s obvious that the higher-ups will frame me to cover up the incident.”
“Then that’s good. We just happened to have an empty executive position.”
Then, the man smiled at her and held out his hand towards her.
“How about we try to create a win-win situation for both of us?”
“…….”
“…Narae.”
When he called her name, which had never changed, with a friendly smile that she had never forgotten in 20 years, she, with even hotter tears flowing from her eyes, quietly nodded her head and put her hands forward. Hold it out.
“Of course, Kang Ha-neul.”
And so, the two relationships that seemed destined to drift apart forever were finally tied together, holding each other’s hands.
“I will always be your wing.”
At that very moment, a light so brilliant that it brightened the night sky enveloped them.
“I missed you.”
“…Me too.”
The abandoned factory murder case, which will remain one of the few unsolved cases in Korea, ended in such a romantic way.
With two people who have been falsely accused again, or for the first time in their long lives, but are still happier than anyone else in the world.
＞ I didn’t want to see it!!!
“”……””
＞ …Just kidding.
I became a villain who was falsely accused – side story complete
