Chapter 163: Snake (1)
Chapter 163 < Snake (1) >
Various people boarded the bus, found their seats, and sat down. There were some parents holding their childrens hands, going on a trip.
There were some people who looked like they had a lot of stories to tell. And there were some friends who were going on a graduation trip.
Han Yoo-jun, wearing a military uniform, was the last passenger to get on. As the departure time approached, the driver came in and closed the door.
(Yoo-jun, you must always live a good and upright life.)
The bus left the terminal and headed out of the city. Han Yoo-jun felt like he was hearing his fathers words, which he had drilled into his ears after hearing the news of his death, as if they were hallucinations.
His father, who had been proud of his life, was found as a corpse on the street. The police concluded that he had died of a sudden heart attack, and his body was at the funeral home. His fathers last moments were so pitiful.
Lost in his thoughts, he was shocked when the bus entered the tunnel and soon after, a car that was driving recklessly from behind caused a multiple collision.
(Dangerous substance)
Han Yoo-jun, who had briefly lost consciousness due to the shock, instinctively sensed something was wrong when he saw the oil tanker that had stopped right in front of him and the oil that was spilling on the ground. He sprang up and shouted.
Get off and get out of the tunnel!
He woke up the people who were still dazed and went to the drivers seat to lift up the bus driver. He was out of his mind and didnt know what was going on, but the people followed him out of the bus, seeing his urgent gestures.
Oh my God
Whats going on?
They also realized the seriousness of the situation when they saw the oil on the ground and smelled something burning.
Run that way, that way!
They all ran after Han Yoo-juns words, and some of the drivers who were in front of them saw them running and got out of their cars to join the crowd.
Han Yoo-jun, while evacuating, also found a person who was bewildered in the car and banged on the hood of the car.
Get out!
What?
Leave the car and run!
Only then did he notice the gravity of the situation and got out of the car. Han Yoo-jun pushed his back. Han Yoo-jun, in the midst of the chaos, looked around to see if there was anyone who hadnt heard him. It was thanks to his fathers teaching that he always helped people in trouble.
Someone grabbed his arm. It was a couple.
Excuse me, whats going on?
We have to get out of the tunnel!
Han Yoo-jun ran after his parents, but he carried the child who was slower than them and ran desperately.
There was one more person who was running with a child in his arms. Son Jin-ho, who had been too busy to spend time with his child, had decided to take his daughter on a trip for a rare vacation. He was on the same bus as Han Yoo-jun.
He had hit his head due to the impact that was transmitted to the bus, and he couldnt regain his senses because of the ringing in his ears. He felt a fern-like hand next to him and blindly ran out of the tunnel with it.
Soo-yeong, are you okay?
His expression hardened as he checked the child in his arms. This child was not his daughter.
Jae-hyun!
Mom
The mother of the child who was following him bowed to Son Jin-ho.
Thank you! Thank you so much!
Uh
Son Jin-ho looked around hastily. He was sure he had taken the child who was sitting next to him And their clothes were similar. He clenched his teeth at the ringing in his ears.
Soo-yeong? Soo-yeong!
As the ringing subsided, he began to focus on the sounds around him. The ability to read sounds that he had developed when he hit his head in elementary school. He had used it to catch many criminals and save many people.
(What the hell is going on?)
(What about the car? It hasnt been long since I bought it.)
(Please, let nothing happen.)
(Dad Where are you?)
Among the mixed feelings of the people, he heard his own name, Son Soo-yeong. Son Jin-ho turned his head. His daughter was still in the tunnel.
(Dad, Im scared)
Soo-yeong!
How could he confuse his own child? Son Jin-ho tried to go back into the tunnel, but Han Yoo-jun, who had come out last, stopped him.
Mister, what are you doing!
Get out of the way!
You cant go in there!
The car that was in the middle of the tunnel exploded, and the aftermath of the explosion hit them. The two people who were thrown by the shock, here, Son Jin-hos ability was transferred to Han Yoo-jun by a special effect.
Ugh
"What do we do!"
"Did you call 119?!"
People who had evacuated earlier gathered near the two. The voices of many people overlapped, but Son Jin-ho clearly heard his daughter's last scream.
"Su, Young-ah"
With a desperate expression, Son Jin-ho lost consciousness as he saw the flames burning in the tunnel beyond the legs of the people.
"How are you? I think I'm fine."
The director, Jung Hyun-sik, and Yoo Yeon Seo, who had been carefully examining the acting they had just done through the monitor, nodded their heads after some deliberation.
The cinematographer was quite famous in this area, and he showed a thrilling situation without adding any effects. Behind that was the decent directing of a director who could not be called a rookie.
"Good, let's shoot Yeon Seo again."
Yoo Yeon Seo, who had to shoot from a different angle, wiped off the blood makeup and checked his clothes. He went back into the tunnel, and Han Yoo-jun, who came out of the bus at the cue sign of the director, evacuated the people.
"Cut, wait a minute. The extras are not in sync."
It took quite a long time to get the okay sign because there were so many extras. Yoo Yeon Seo acted the same as before without showing any signs of fatigue.
"He's really good at acting."
"Look at him flying his body. And it's the director's first drama directing, right?"
"The problem is not the director, it's that guy."
The staff who were watching from behind whispered quietly. Their eyes turned to Eom Dong-pil, the assistant director. He had not been filming for long, but he had argued with the director's opinion in various ways.
But Isul-gi, the director, just said Yes, yes, I got it' and moved on, and they saw the director's toughness from that. So they were less worried.
"Do you think our drama will do well?"
"I hope so. I hope we do well and get a reward vacation."
"Hey, we're not on the main side, do you think they'll take care of us like that?"
"You can dream, right?"
The reward vacation of National Bird' was envied by not only the public who saw it through SNS, but also the people in the same industry. People who used to avoid Yoo Yeon Seo's filming site were desperately hoping that the lead role of the work they would join would be Yoo Yeon Seo.
After the strike, the number of people who went to JSENM also increased. It was because they expected that Yoo Yeon Seo, who became an executive in the company, would become a JSENM official.
"But didn't you see a lot of people at the filming site these days? There's none here now because it's in front of the tunnel"
"Did you hear any eyewitness stories? It's because Yoo Yeon Seo is here."
"No, I heard there were quite a lot of people at the next filming location too."
"Really? Do you have a picture?"
The staff showed his phone screen. It was an ordinary person's SNS.
(Today they're filming Yoo Yeon Seo's drama here!! Waiting until they come lol! #Snake#Yoo Yeon Seo#Watching drama filming#I finally see a celebrity)
"What is this?"
How could they know this without leaking it
***
Because of the accident in the tunnel, Son Jin-ho lost his only daughter and his ability to read sounds.
"Let's get divorced."
"Okay."
The only good thing about losing his ability was that he couldn't read what his wife thought of him, who ran away to save himself and abandoned his daughter.
He didn't rely on his ability unconditionally, but when it disappeared, which was like a cheat key, he left a stain on his perfect police career.
His colleagues said that Son Jin-ho, who was so perfect, had aged. He lost his touch. He felt more human. But what bothered him was not the gossip of his colleagues, but his daughter's last voice. The painful scream that she let out while looking for her dad.
In the end, Son Jin-ho resigned and locked himself in his house.
Ding dong, ding dong
Son Jin-ho, who had fallen asleep drunk, barely got up from the sofa and staggered to the front door as the doorbell rang incessantly.
"Wow, you smell like a widower Did you eat?"
"Why are you here?"
"I came to see how you're doing. Is this a human's house or a beast's house?"
The chief of the info police, who had rejected Son Jin-ho's resignation and told him to take a break and come back, clicked his tongue as he saw the mess in the house and his friend who looked terrible.
"As you can see, I can't treat you well."
"Wow, how many cup noodles are there. Don't tell me you're eating this for all three meals."
"It's edible."
He didn't know that he was trying to act normal in front of his friend. The chief didn't pity him openly either.
As he was tidying up his friends house, the chief stopped his hand when he saw the investigation files piled up on the dining table. Son Jin-ho had covered them with a newspaper.
He hadnt been doing nothing in despair. The owner of the car that caused the rear-end collision was a drug dealer that the drug team 1 of the Info Police Station, where Son Jin-ho belonged, had been chasing.
Do you really want to catch those snakes?
Why are you asking me something obvious?
If it werent for that accident, my daughter could have lived. Moreover, it was an unbelievable coincidence that a member of the drug organization that he had been pursuing at that time was involved in the accident. It was as if the god above was telling him to catch the culprit.
Then come back. As the team leader of drug team 3.
Team 3? Is it a newly established team?
It will be a special team for Snake.
What about team 1?
Team 1 had been chasing the huge drug organization Snake that had rooted in Korea from the beginning. Would his colleagues accept it if he handed over the case he had been in charge of to a new team?
The chief sighed and took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Son Jin-ho.
Kyung-sik was found dead last night.
What?
Park Kyung-sik was Son Jin-hos partner and the team leader of team 1. Son Jin-ho hastily flipped over the photo. There was a needle mark on Park Kyung-siks arm, who was found in a garbage dump on the street.
Did they dump him in the garbage dump? Are they mocking us?
Yes. The autopsy revealed that he had more than a lethal dose of fentanyl.
Tsk
Anyway, the team 1 guys are a bit exhausted because of this case. They lose them whenever they try to catch them, and they cant see their real identity
It was natural to lose motivation when they couldnt see the identity of the organization that they had been chasing for years, and they lost their team leader to what seemed to be Snakes doing. After a moment of hesitation, Son Jin-ho slammed the photo down.
Okay, Ill take it.
Dont investigate too emotionally. Got it?
Got it.
It was a reasonable thing to say since his daughter and partner were involved, but Son Jin-ho nodded casually.
The ones who still have the will are going to team 3.
Thats good.
Son Jin-ho bit his lower lip. Could I, who had lost my ability, catch them? No, I have to. Thats the only way to avenge my daughter.
Oh, take him too.
Who?
Yeah, a nutcase.
How much of a nutcase was he to be a lieutenant and get into the chiefs ears? He opened the file that the chief had put down. It was Han Yu-juns personal information.
A special forces veteran? Thats unusual He even received a medal of honor?
Why was he a nutcase? He looked up at the chiefs face.
He brought in people who had no evidence and were not even strong suspects and locked them up in the detention center more than once or twice. I thought I was going to d*e trying to clean up after him.
What?
He acted so weirdly that he considered the people he caught as the culprits and investigated them seriously, and they fit perfectly. As if he could read other peoples minds.
Son Jin-hos eyes, which had only a small interest, turned to horror. Could it be He searched for Han Yu-jun and the medal of honor on his phone. He saw a familiar face in the photos and interviews. It was the soldier who had stopped him in the tunnel accident.
Annoying, right? You werent like this when you first took the case, were you?
Do you know where he is now?
