Chapter 65

Chapter 65 – Bomber #3

Kim Do-shik was troubled after receiving the call from the unidentified person . The commissioner of the National Police Agency had given him field authority, but the case had grown too big to make a judgment alone .

The SWAT team members also didn’t look good . Their abilities were lacking and they needed to get help from an unknown person . The SWAT team leader said with a resolute expression .

“First of all, why don’t we try to do as much as we can? Then we can ask for cooperation if we need it . ”

Kim Do-shik nodded . Fortunately, this time they had half a day to spare . First, they had to wait for Joo Hyun-ho to arrive .

Shortly afterwards, a BMW arrived at the scene of the incident .

“That person…”

“Yes . Investigator Joo Hyun-ho . ”

It was a luxury car that wasn’t suitable for the field, but it was a ride that was bought using his own money .

“Ahaha . I’m sorry for the delay . ”

“No, it was faster than I thought . Just listen to the tape recorder . ”

“Then I’ll solve the riddle right away . ”

Numerous people paid attention as Joo Hyun-ho listened to the hint that the Bomber left behind . He was the one who solved the first problem instantly . They thought he could do it again this time . Then they could solve this case without the help of the God of Crime .

Kim Do-shik thought so as he looked at Joo Hyun-ho .

“Kuoong…”

“What is it? Will it take more time? The time for the bomb to go of is still five hours away . Relax . ”

“That’s not it…”

Joo Hyun-ho made a difficult expression . It wasn’t that he couldn’t solve the problem, it was just not the answer that he wanted .

Kim Do-shik’s expression became serious . It seemed like Joo Hyun-ho was unable to say the answer .

“He is being a petty jerk . ”

“Yes . That’s exactly what it is . ”

Joo Hyun-ho sighed and wrote down the answer to the problem on the piece of paper .

[Educational institutions in Seoul . ]

“…That is it?”

The scope was too broad . Furthermore, if the bomb went off then the damage to young students would be enormous .

Joo Hyun-ho bit his lip and answered,

“The answer I got is an educational institute . More details are needed but it just leads to an endless loop . The problem itself is literally a trap . ”

“Oh my god…”

Joo Hyun-ho was a Mensa member and the owner of a very high IQ . His reasoning was top class among the investigators . That Joo Hyun-ho was saying this .

He was very nervous about the content .

“In the end, a bomb is hidden in one of the many educational institutes in Seoul . ”

“This hint can’t be narrowed down further . ”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes . King Solomon would say the same thing if he were to be resurrected . ”

“…Investigator Joo . Do you know how many educational institutions there are in Seoul?”

Joo Hyun-ho nodded .

“Three years ago, there were a total of 872 kindergartens, 594 elementary schools, 379 middle schools, 317 high schools, 29 special schools and 17 others for a total of 2208 . I think we will need at least 20,000 people to search all of them for the bomb . ”

“20,000…”

It was an impossible number .

“Even if all the police officers in Seoul were gathered together, it is impossible . In the end, you will need to obtain the cooperation of the private sector . So the presence of the bomb will spread to the mass media . ”

“Ohh… That can’t happen!”

Bombs occurring in the middle of the city . If it spread to the media then there would be a huge uproar, and the censure would be tremendous . Kim Do-shik was prepared to take off all his clothes and take responsibility if this case went wrong . He didn’t know it was a situation where he would have to go to the army rather than ending it with the police .

In the end, Kim Do-shik made a firm decision .

“It can’t be helped . No matter how big it gets, the safety of the public is the top priority I will take responsibility . Immediately contact all educational institutions in downtown Seoul and ask them to search for bombs on campus . I also have to make a call to the commissioner . I will do it on my line . ”

“Yes, I understand . ”

Kim Do-shik picked up his phone to call the commissioner of the NPA . At the same time, someone called him .

“It can’t be…”

When he picked up the call, the person he expected was on the other line .

–It looks like you are asking for help from the police commissioner . As expected of Inspector Kim Do-shik . You will accept full responsibility to protect the people . But I am sorry .

“…What does that mean?”

He didn’t have time to think about this person .

–I have already found the bomb . Why don’t you go to H High School in K district? Ah right, this is a service . It isn’t easy to mobilize 20,000 people . The choice is yours to make .

Then the call cut out .

Kim Do-shik gritted his teeth . He wasn’t sure what the other person knew, but if his information was true, then he would get 150 million won . Then they would be able to handle the remaining bombs .

“Detective Cho . Do you want to go to K High School to check if there is really a bomb?”

“Yes, I understand . ”

He would soon see if the other person was a fraud or not .

“The Bomber or that bastard . I don’t know who is worse . The person doing it, or the one trying to make money from it . ”

Kim Do-shik suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette .

@

There really was a bomb .

@

“Aigoo…”

Tae-hyuk moaned as he finished the phone call and sat on a bench . He seemed to have overdone it this time . He had been running hard for almost three hours, and now he was completely exhausted .

“Anyways, the one coming to check the bomb is probably Kang-suk hyung . Shouldn’t I finish the preparations before that?”

Just finding the bomb ahead of the police wasn’t enough . He also had to do a lot of work behind the scenes .

“Still, Ha-yang noona is very useful . ”

Tae-hyuk found it hard to imagine her as security company employee . However, it was with her help that he could call Kim Do-shik with such confidence . She manipulated the origin of the call every time Tae-hyuk called . It was like putting a swan in water – on the surface, they floated gracefully . However, their feet were actually moving rapidly in the water .

“My agility has increased, thanks to running around so much . ”

In Atlantis, he had to go beyond the limits of his flesh to escape, so his agility had gone up by five . But now when he checked, it had risen by another three .

“I’m already at 33 . ”

When he thought about it, his agility stat mainly rose when he was with Yoo Ha-yang . Maybe Yoo Ha-yang had something special like An Eun-young’s studying skill?

“Next time I have to find out more . ”

That wasn’t all that was available . It was necessary to check everything as the God of Crime .

Tae-hyuk was sitting on a bench in the corner of the playground at H High School, near the school where he caught the voyeur . He was able to blend in naturally because he had the uniform .

“Now . I will finish this . ”

There was a large courier box at Tae-hyuk’s feet . Kim Tae-sung’s liquid bomb was hidden inside it . Once the primer was triggered, the two liquids would mix and cause an explosion . However, he had removed the primer .

“Originally, 20,000 people were mobilized because of this bomb . ”

The information spread to the media and caused an uproar around the whole country . It was exactly what the Bomber wanted .

Distract the police and kill his real target .

Why did he become the Bomber when he was an ordinary chemistry teacher? It was clear that Yoo Ha-yang was interested in this .

However, Tae-hyuk’s thoughts were different .

“A bad guy is just bad . All the people I met in prison were heinous criminals . ”

All criminals had their circumstances, but it was no excuse . Seo Tae-hyuk had a memorable stay in prison for 10 years, and had met countless criminals there . Therefore, Tae-hyuk believed that criminals were just criminals .

“They are just a good money source .

Tae-hyuk licked his lips and looked at the box containing the bomb . Once the police discovered this, they would have to deal with him .

He had received a bounty for catching Yoo Cheol-ho . However, he didn’t earn that much despite catching some criminals . It was literally a free service . There was no enthusiasm . He didn’t want to catch a criminal who didn’t have a bounty .

But the police would eventually given Tae-hyuk 150 million to catch the Bomber . A criminal who caught other criminals . Today, the God of Crime appeared in the world for the first time .

“There are still more than 100 people on the blacklist . ”

Some of them couldn’t be judged by the law such as Park Seong-ho . Some people he couldn’t turn over to the police, like Big Mama and Moonlight Flower .

However, there were at least 50 people he could catch with their own crime skills . Depending on the risk, the bounty applied would be between 50 million to 200 million . If he could get them all, then he could receive over five billion won . With that type of money, his family wouldn’t need to worry for a lifetime .

“First of all, we can buy a good apartment . Noona can open a small shop . Would Tae-min like an office?”

It was starting now . Until now, he had dealt with the criminals without thinking, but now it was different .

Tae-hyuk laughed . It was important to pursue Park Jung-hwan’s whereabouts, but he needed money for the happy future of his family .

It was very deep . The blacklist would make him big money . In order to act while concealing his identity, he thought of the title, the God of Crime .

“Shall I finish this?”

When he checked the time, Kang-suk would be coming soon . Tae-hyuk placed the bomb box on the bench and hung a banner from the tree .

The bomb wouldn’t be difficult to find . When they looked at this, the police would cry out the name of the God of Crime, rather than the Bomber .

Tae-hyuk didn’t look back and moved to find the next bomb .

“Keok… This bastard!”

Kim Do-shik gritted his teeth . He could find the bomb at H High School . The other person clearly said that . He had been wondering what it meant, but the person did something cute like this . .

“Haha… He is called the God of Crime? I don’t know who you are but you are a delightful person . ”

The SWAT team leader muttered . A box containing the bomb was placed in a corner of the school . However, there was a large banner above it .

[Feel free to eat – God of Crime . ]

There were three boxes containing ramyun noodles underneath .

Cho Kang-suk said .

“Inspector . I think he brought this for us to eat . ”

“Fuck . Then he should have given us hot water as well!”

Kang-suk laughed .

Fortunately, the school gave the police warm water and they could eat warm noodles .

In the meantime, Kim Do-shik finished his conversation with the commissioner . He delivered the contents directly to Cho Kang-suk .

“I have permission . I will appoint Detective Cho as the head of the Special Headquarters for the God of Crime .

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“In the future, I will tell him to speak to you . ”

Kim Do-shik handed his phone to Kang-suk . He was the typical boss dumping the unenviable task onto his subordinate .

Kang-suk made a dumbfounded expression at the promotion .

Kim Do-shik added,

“A special budget will be organized . ”

Kim Do-shik spoke angrily with a red face .

“Deal with the God of Crime . ”

Kang-suk swallowed his saliva . He couldn’t decide if this was right or not .

“I don’t know if this is really good . ”

“But with his help, nobody will get hurt and we can catch the Bomber . ”

“Still, the opponent is a criminal . ”

“Yes . A criminal who catches other criminals . ”

Kang-suk was left holding the phone . In the future, it was his task to deal with the God of Crime .
