Chapter 258

Yoo-hyun snorted and said.

“Oh? Now you’re going to charge me with assault?”

“You bastard!”

Then, the big guy in the orange vest threw a punch.

Thud.

Yoo-hyun blocked the incoming fist with his shoulder.

“You hit first, right?”

“What? This kid!”

The big guy in the orange vest scowled and threw another punch.

It couldn’t have looked that slow.

Thud.

Yoo-hyun dodged the fist and landed his own punch on the guy’s chin.

It was a counterpunch to a vital spot, and with the force behind it, the guy collapsed right away.

“Ugh!”

Yoo-hyun quickly turned his body and kicked the small guy in the orange vest who was rushing at him from the side.

Bam!

He hit him right on target.

The guy also fell limp from the powerful kick.

As soon as two of them were subdued, the landlord shouted and swung his fist.

The guy with a shabby look had some courage.

“You bastard, die!”

Thud.

But his cotton fist hit Yoo-hyun’s chest and he felt nothing at all.

Yoo-hyun grabbed his wrist.

“Ugh! Aah!”

Then he twisted his arm and kneed him in the head.

“Why are you using violence? Against a law-abiding citizen.”

“I’ll, I’ll report you.”

“Go ahead and report.”

Thump.

“Aah!”

The landlord’s arm was twisted behind his back and he screamed.

Yoo-hyun kicked him behind the knee and he knelt down.

Thud.

It was a moment when everyone around him was subdued.

The merchant president who was next to him trembled and said.

“Do you, do you know who I am?”

“Who are you? You’re a thug who sucks blood from merchants.”

“What did you say? I, I have connections with the police…”

“Then go ahead and report.”

As soon as Yoo-hyun said that, the merchant president blinked and asked back.

“Are, are you serious?”

“Ugh! Hurry up and get this bastard…”

The landlord whose arm was twisted shut up when Yoo-hyun hit him in the back of his head.

He still hadn’t come to his senses.

Thud.

“Ow!”

“Be quiet.”

The merchant president asked nervously.

“Can, can I really do it?”

“Do it. I want to put you away right now.”

Yoo-hyun growled and he pressed a phone number on his cell phone.

It was not 112 but a personal number.

Suddenly, his expression cleared of fear.

He even smiled confidently and talked on the phone.

“Hey, Park chief, it’s me…”

Yoo-hyun sneered at him.

“Bullshit.”

A moment later.

Yoo-hyun was sitting at a nearby police station.

The people who were with him earlier were also there.

Park Sang-ik, the chief who was sitting across from him, said to Yoo-hyun.

“It seems like there was some misunderstanding here?”

“Didn’t I show you the picture earlier? And the lady testified too.”

“That’s not enough evidence, evidence.”

Park Sang-ik shook his spoon as if he was annoyed, and the merchant president next to him said smugly.

“You’re right, chief. You see things clearly. This kid hit me here with his fist, ugh…”

“Oh, president, you must be hurt.”

“Yeah, right.”

Yoo-hyun snorted at their cozy act.

Then he took out his cell phone again and said.

“Then I guess I have to show you this too.”

“What is this?”

Park Sang-ik asked, and Yoo-hyun shouted loudly.

“Just look at this for a second!”

“What’s wrong with you?”

Then the police officers next to him also turned their heads curiously.

Yoo-hyun pressed a button and the video he had taken earlier played.

It showed the merchant president and his group threatening the old lady clearly.

With their vivid voices, the expressions of the landlord and the two thugs in orange vests who were being interrogated next to them crumpled up.

The climax was the merchant president’s words:

-Do you know that these cops are all people who would die at my word?

The absurd situation made the police officers blink their eyes.

Then, the old lady who was testifying next to them ran over and said.

“That’s right. The merchant president said that. He said it’s useless to report because all the police are on his side.”

“What! Where did you get this fake video?”

The merchant president snapped, but Yoo-hyun calmly countered him.

“This is a video I just took. Where did I have time to manipulate it?”

“President.”

Suddenly, Park Sang-ik glared at the merchant president harshly.

“That…”

The merchant president gave him an apologetic look, and Park Sang-ik sighed and said to Yoo-hyun.

“You’re young and inexperienced, aren’t you? This kind of thing is not evidence either.”

“Then I’ll have to hire a lawyer.”

“Go ahead and try. You’ll just waste your time, what do you think you’ll gain from it?”

Chief Park Sang-ik was experienced in dealing with these situations and responded skillfully.

He knew that it was a pointless action for Yoo-hyun, who had no stake in the matter.

Yoo-hyun shrugged at the expected answer.

“You’re right. It’s not worth wasting my time on this, I’ll have to call a reporter.”

“Oh! You’re hopeless, young man.”

Only then did Chief Park Sang-ik’s eyebrows twitch.

“Why? Don’t you think it would make a great article if I link the abuse of power and the police bribery?”

“Call a reporter! Go ahead and call! You brat, where do you get your nerve from?”

Chief Park Sang-ik yelled at Yoo-hyun’s sarcastic words.

Yoo-hyun obediently followed his words.

“Yes. I already did.”

“What, what did you say?”

It was at that moment.

Clang.

The door opened and a tall young man entered the police station.

Yoo-hyun recognized him right away from his profile picture.

He raised his hand and greeted him.

“Mr. Kim, the reporter.”

“Oh? Mr. Yoo, hello.”

“…”

The police station became quiet for a moment.

It was because of the camera that Kim Yeon-guk, the reporter, brought with him.

There was a big logo of Uri Ilbo on it.

“Haha! I should introduce myself first. I’m Kim Yeon-guk, a reporter from Uri Ilbo.”

“U-Uri Ilbo…”

“Yes. I received an interesting tip. It’s a complicated story involving the police and the chairman of the merchants association, right?”

As soon as he finished his words, Chief Park Sang-ik’s eyes changed.

He hit the heads of the chairman of the merchants association and President Hwang, who were sitting on the floor, hard with a file folder.

Thwack! Thwack!

“Chief Park…”

“You bastard, how dare you act like you know something!”

The chairman of the merchants association, who opened his mouth for nothing, got into trouble.

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

“Aaah!”

After venting his anger, Chief Park Sang-ik ordered his subordinate officers.

“Hey, we have enough evidence for this guy, so make sure you search him thoroughly.”

“Yes, chief!”

“No, Chief Park, is this how you do it?”

The chairman of the merchants association asked in a pitiful voice at Chief Park Sang-ik’s sudden change of attitude.

President Hwang also added his voice as if he had some connection.

“Chief Park, this is not right.”

Then Chief Park Sang-ik looked at them with a fierce expression.

“Do you think this is a joke? This is a police station, a police station! How dare you insult the police!”

“That’s not what I meant…”

As the chairman of the merchants association stuttered, Chief Park Sang-ik gave strong instructions to his subordinates.

“Hey, check that guy Baek Ho-gil too. He has a record of illegal prostitution.”

“Yes, chief!”

“And that guy Hwang Joo-hwan has some illegal transactions when he acquired the building. Make sure you investigate that part too.”

“Yes, sir.”

“…”

The faces of the chairman of the merchants association and President Hwang turned pale at the same time.

It was after the storm had passed.

Chief Park Sang-ik spoke to Kim Yeon-guk, the reporter, with a friendly face.

“You must have had a hard time coming all this way. Do you want some tea or something?”

“I think there’s someone who had a harder time than me.”

“Oh dear, look at me. I’m sorry about earlier.”

Kim Yeon-guk nodded at Yoo-hyun and Chief Park Sang-ik reached out his hand.

Yoo-hyun hid his feelings and shook his hand.

“I guess mistakes can happen when there are many cases.”

“Hahaha! That’s right. You’re very smart.”

“Just make sure you handle it cleanly.”

“Don’t worry about that. The police are the people’s stick, aren’t they?”

Yoo-hyun snorted as he saw Chief Park Sang-ik’s confident expression.

He turned his head and saw Kim Yeon-guk wink at him.

Yoo-hyun whispered his thanks to him.

“Thank you.”

“Let’s talk about that over a drink later.”

Kim Yeon-guk made a gesture of drinking alcohol.

He looked like a male version of Oh Eun-bi, who was good at handling things.

Then Chief Park Sang-ik guided them to an inner seat.

He looked so nice that it was hard to believe he was the same person.

“Come on, come this way.”

Seeing him, Yoo-hyun gave Kim Yeon-guk a thumbs up.

He had to admit it.

The power of the pen was formidable.

Yoo-hyun, who came out of the police station, met Kim Yeon-guk at a pub.

He spoke frankly, unlike his gloomy appearance.

Kim Yeon-guk recalled the earlier incident and said.

“Geez, there are so many rotten bastards.”

“That’s why we need people like you, reporters.”

“Hahaha! Mr. Yoo, you’re good at flattering. No wonder Ms. Oh likes you.”

“Thank you for your kindness. I really appreciate it today.”

Yoo-hyun filled Kim Yeon-guk’s glass with beer.

He owed him a lot for his article on Kim Hyun-soo last time and today’s case.

Especially this time, he came to the police station at Yoo-hyun’s request.

And it was on a weekend.

No matter how close his house was, it was not an easy thing to do.

But he acted as if it was nothing and shook his head.

“Hey, don’t thank me. I got a good article thanks to you.”

“But it’s still small compared to your trouble.”

“No. You got the video clearly, right? This article will be a big hit. Haha!”

“I’m glad then.”

Yoo-hyun was grateful for Kim Yeon-guk’s kind words.

They drank and chatted for a while.

Clang.

The pub door opened and a familiar guest came in.

Yoo-hyun raised his hand and welcomed Kim Hyun-soo.

“Hyun-soo.”

“What? You said you were going home right away… Huh? Reporter.”

Kim Hyun-soo, who was talking to Yoo-hyun, was surprised to see the person sitting across from him.

Kim Yeon-guk greeted him.

“Mr. Kim, hello.”

“What are you doing here…”

Kim Hyun-soo looked bewildered as he sat down at Yoo-hyun’s request.

“You two look like a picture together. You’re both justice warriors, aren’t you?”

“Don’t say that. Have a drink first.”

Yoo-hyun filled Kim Yeon-guk’s glass with beer.

He also poured some for Kim Hyun-soo’s empty glass.

Kim Hyun-soo, who had no idea what was going on, asked in a puzzled tone.

“Yoo-hyun, did you tell the reporter about those bastards who nailed me to the ground last time?”

“No. Why would I do that?”

Yoo-hyun shook his head and Kim Yeon-guk leaned forward with interest.

“Oh? What’s that story?”

Kim Hyun-soo realized his mistake at that moment.
