Chapter 157
―You can come now… can… ?
A voice that seemed to forcefully endure the pain, as if it was being squeezed out.
intermittent panting breath.
Sounds like spitting up blood.
“Are you hurt?”
-haha… … . uh. I was trying to contact you… … I got caught… … .
The voice becomes more and more muffled. It was a weak voice that seemed like it would lose its mind at any moment.
―Too much blood… … I must have spilled a lot… … . so sleepy… … .
Excessive bleeding to the point of fainting.
If you leave it as it is, you will die 100%.
―To you… There is something I really want to give you… … . For sure… … help… Coke!
“Where are you?”
I immediately got up and put on my coat.
―Near the Leheim Hotel… … Abandoned factory… … hiding in… … .
“sister? sister?”
—… … .
My sister’s voice grew muffled, then completely quiet.
It seems that he has lost his mind.
‘… … Near Leheim Hotel.’
I don’t know the exact situation, but I don’t think it’s a situation where I can just watch it any longer.
I immediately went out of the room.
“mister.”
Then, he called Seok-hyeon, who was waiting near the door using stealth magic.
“What are you doing?”
“Please prepare the tea right away.”
The old man looked straight into my eyes.
“The reason is… … I’ll have to listen as I go. Let’s go to the parking lot.”
Through my eyes, as if he sensed the seriousness of the situation, he hurried his steps.
“Can I ask you to explain the situation?”
On my way to the parking lot, the man asked me.
“Sister Se-ah seems seriously injured.”
The old man stood in his place with a surprised look on his face.
“… … Are you talking about Miss Se-ah? why… … . No, why does the Bocchan know that?”
But it was only for a moment that I stopped walking. The old man moved his feet again.
As if he understood 100% the seriousness of the situation, his steps became faster.
“I just got a call from my sister.”
I explained the situation as briefly as possible.
I got into the limousine and continued to speak while driving.
After about 10 minutes passed like that, my story was all over.
“The situation is strange.”
After hearing all of my story, the old man frowned with a doubtful expression on his face.
“yes. It’s strange.”
“Brother Jihan used Lady Seah to kill Master Hayul… … .”
Beyond the rearview mirror, the old man’s expression became more complex.
“No matter what, first of all, securing Lady Sae-ah is the first thing.”
“yes.”
If you secure Sister Seah, you will be able to know the details of the situation.
Even if that’s not the case, you have to save your life and see it.
“Oh, and just in case, send the shadow crew members as well. I don’t think so, but it could be a trap.”
It could be that Se-ah’s older sister collaborated with Shin Ji-han and acted.
There is also a chance that all kinds of traps are laid in the abandoned factory near the Leheim Hotel.
“yes. As I was coming, I sent a message to the crew.”
It seems that Mr. Seokhyun was also thinking about the possibility of a trap.
‘no. Rather than thinking of traps, is it to find and secure Sister Se-ah as quickly as possible?’
The dark side of the sorceress, the shadow.
As much as it specializes in stealth and infiltration, it also specializes in finding things.
If they search with all their might, they will be able to find Sister Seah right away.
“young master. I’ll speed it up. The body may shake a little, but please bear with it.”
“yes.”
The old man hit the accelerator hard.
A limousine driving down the road at breakneck speed.
We drove about 15 minutes in total and were able to arrive at our destination, the abandoned factory.
and.
“Captain! young master! I found it!”
After about 3 minutes of searching, we were able to find Sister Se Ah hiding in a corner of the abandoned factory.
“Your life is in danger if you don’t give first aid right away!”
I mean sister Se-ah, who is dying in a pool of blood, unconscious.
* * *
After that, Seah’s sister was immediately transported to the emergency room and went into surgery.
“It was close. Even if I was five minutes late, there would be no way to help.”
Fortunately, the surgery went well.
No wonder there was a hospital 5 minutes away from the abandoned factory.
Even if it was a little late, it could have been a big deal.
“thank you. Thank you very much for your hard work at such a late hour.”
“haha. I just did my duty as a doctor.”
The doctor answered with a proud face.
An expression of infinite joy for saving a person.
I could tell just by looking at his expression.
This doctor is a great doctor.
“How long do you think it will take you to wake up?”
“well. I can’t say for sure, but the surgery went well, and I think I’ll wake up tomorrow at the earliest.”
Tomorrow at the earliest.
It’s a very quick awakening for something that almost killed me.
That means the surgery went well.
“Then I will go back. There is still work to be done.”
“yes. Thank you very much for your hard work.”
The doctor gave a small smile and turned around.
“ah.”
Then, as if something suddenly came to mind, he let out an exclamation and turned to me again.
“I forgot to tell you this. here.”
He even gave me something.
“It is an object that the patient held in his hand until the end.”
“SD card?”
It was an old SD card with no magic technology involved.
“Then I really will go.”
“yes. thank you.”
So the doctor leaves.
Left alone, I stood blankly, staring at the bloody SD card on my palm.
‘… … It was real.’
Everything she said was true.
It wasn’t that I collaborated with Shin Ji-han to act. everything is real
My sister really asked me for help.
He reached out to me to escape Shin Ji-han’s clutches.
‘Shin Jihan… … .’
A genuine anger welled up.
Sincere intent to kill Shin Ji-han, who tried to make even older sister Se-ah, who followed him wholeheartedly, throw away his words, rose.
Kwaaaak.
I gently grabbed the SD card that was covered in my sister’s blood.
‘Waste worse than trash.’
An affair that is not even worthy of a human axis.
I will definitely take care of him with my own hands.
I made that promise again.
* * *
meanwhile that time.
Inside the limousine near the hospital lobby.
Kim Seok-hyun was reporting the current situation to Shin In-hyuk.
“Brother Jihan has completely disappeared now.”
Shin In-hyeok’s expression cooled down. His expression and spirit were as if he had coldly forged his anger and shaped it into his blade.
“Even under the circumstances, it is highly likely that Master Jihan is the culprit.”
Hiding means that there is something unpleasant about it.
“Evidence?”
“So far, only Sae-ah’s testimony.”
We have yet to find any evidence that Shin Ji-han was involved in this incident.
“I’m looking for physical evidence… … .”
I don’t know if I can find it.
Ugh!
Then the phone vibrated.
[Master Ha Yul]
It was a text from Shin Ha-yul.
“This… … .”
A photo and a file were attached to the text.
The picture was a picture of a dried up SD card covered in blood.
The attached file was the file contained on the SD card.
[Sister Se-ah said it was the SD card she had been holding in her hand until the end. There is a high probability that it contains evidence.]
[It’s encrypted, but since it’s an old SD card, Mr. Seok-hyeon should be able to decipher it.]
[Please review.]
Kim Seok-hyun’s eyes narrowed.
“what?”
“… … They said they found the SD card that Miss Se-Ah was carrying.”
As Kim Seok-hyun answered, he took out the laptop he had left on the side of the limousine.
A laptop customized for these decryption tasks.
Using it, I started decrypting the files.
Tada Tada Tada-
The sound of Kim Seok-hyun tapping the batter filled the limousine.
About 5 minutes passed like that.
“Decryption. Done.”
Decryption is over.
“… … open it.”
“yes.”
Kim Seok-hyun manipulated the laptop and activated the hologram screen mode.
The contents of the file quickly floated in front of Shin In-hyeok’s eyes.
“… … .”
“… … .”
As soon as they confirmed the contents, the two people’s faces frowned.
The content of the attached file was extremely simple.
“About the details of the transfer of money to the Black Mage Tower… … .”
The details of Shin Ji-han sending money to the Black Magic Tower through a secret account he kept abroad.
“There is also evidence that the family documents were forged.”
And proof that the family papers related to the Black Mage Tower were exchanged.
“… … .”
and so on.
It was clear evidence that could prove Shin Ji-han’s affair.
“… … Recruit people right now and find Ji-han.”
“yes. I’ll also recruit the heavy-mouthed detectives.”
Shin In-hyeok’s anger was hotter than flames.
* * *
5 am.
Returning to my hotel room, I went straight to the fifth test page.
“… … You come early.”
“sorry. I have some work… … .”
And because I was too late, I explained the situation to Asran, who was angry.
“hmm. I understand. There is nothing I can do about it if that happened.”
After about 10 minutes of explanation, he succeeded in calming Aslan’s anger.
“Good job.”
My family was in danger of dying, so I went to save them, but what can I say?
“Anyway, this era and my era are the same.”
Aslan clicked his tongue as if he was displeased with the world.
“I don’t know why the family members couldn’t kill each other so they fretted.”
“… … yes. I don’t understand either.”
No matter how much I covet the position of head of household, that is the case.
How could he even think of killing his family?
‘Not to mention my sister… … .’
Let’s say I can kill by yielding one hundred steps, no, one million steps.
Because I was a clear enemy to Shin Ji-han.
But not sister.
My sister is an obvious ally.
Ever since I was young, I have followed, trusted, and trusted Shin Ji-han.
Shin Ji-han tried to kill Se-ah.
to get rid of me
In order to hide the fact that he used his hand, he tried to use and abandon Se-ah’s sister.
The more you chew on it, the more angry you get. I couldn’t believe that they were from the same blood family as me.
“Don’t be angry. The emotion of anger is not worth it for such trash.”
Aslan put his hand on my shoulder and tapped me a couple of times.
“You just have to throw the garbage in the trash can carelessly.”
“yes.”
“And to hear the story, he is like a rat in a dock anyway. It is your loss to get angry.”
“… … Yes.”
I inhaled deeply, and exhaled.
“Whoa.”
Certainly, as Asran said, Shin Ji-han is already a rat in the poison.
All the facts of Shin Ji-han’s affair were revealed through the SD card held by her sister.
The search began in earnest.
No matter how smart I am, it’s only a matter of time before I get caught.
Even if I don’t do anything, Shin Ji-han will be caught and punished.
As Asran said, I have no reason to be angry.
It’s just my loss as much as I’m angry and angry.
My mind quickly calmed down.
“okay. Just think about focusing on training like that.”
“yes.”
Aslan patted my back and moved to stand in front of me.
“Then let’s start training right away. sit down.”
“yes.”
I sat down and sat cross-legged.
“Focus. Increase the density of the mana core.”
Danjeon circular breathing method that is now familiar. Following that trick, he inhaled deeply, exhaled, and moved his mana.
Gradually, the obsession disappears.
‘however… … .’
I’m gradually falling into a state of trance like that.
Suddenly, I had this thought.
‘That SD file. How did she get it?’
The SD file also contained a record of Shin Ji-han’s first transaction with the Black Mage Tower three years ago.
‘Sister Se-ah wouldn’t have known that Ji-han was dealing with the Black Magic Tower.’
In the case of Leng Smith in the past.
The day I called my brothers and sisters and looked at the situation.
Sister Seah’s expression was tranquility itself.
Even after hearing the information about the Black Mage Tower, there was no change in emotion.
If it had something to do with the Black Mage Tower, that kind of expression wouldn’t come out. Especially when it comes to older sister Se-ah, who is bad at hiding her emotions.
‘The reason why sister Se-ah, who didn’t know about the relationship between the black magic tower and Shin Ji-han until 4 months ago, has a record from 3 years ago… … .’
Did you steal the records Shin Ji-han left behind?
no. There is no way that the vigilant Shin Ji-han left behind his criminal record.
Even if it was left behind, the probability of it being taken away by Sister Seah is infinitely converged to 0%.
‘Then how… … .’
Did Seah’s sister have evidence to prove Shin Ji-han’s transaction with the Black Magic Tower?
‘… … .’
As I pondered over such a question, I fell into a world of trance.
