Chapter 36 – 036. Vampire Detective
036. Vampire Detective
“Uh-wook… !”
“Oh shit! Hey newbie! If you want to puke, go out and do it! If you vomit here, you will die by my hand!”
The shouts of detective team leader Oh Jung-jin reverberated throughout the apartment.
The young rookie who had just become a detective ran out of the hallway with a pale face covering his mouth. Moon Ji-hyeok saw the rookie’s back.
Painful memories come to mind. When he first saw the corpse, his complexion turned pale, and he couldn’t eat meat well for a while.
This is the part that Moon Ji-hyeok can’t help.
When you work as a detective, there are times when you have to see a scene that is worse than this. Dismembered corpses are rare to see, but they do exist. You have to overcome yourself and get used to it.
‘You’ll get used to it. Just like I did.’
Moon Ji-hyeok looked at the scene of the incident again.
The horrors of New Today Apartment Building A, Room 603.
Around 7 in the morning. A man who was going down the stairs for the purpose of exercise found a puddle of blood in the hallway. The blood that came out under the front door of Room 603 pooled in the hallway.
It’s 8:00 in the morning now. The police and scientific investigation team, including Oh Jeong-jin and Moon Ji-hyeok, have occupied Room 603 and are investigating.
A total of 6 bodies were found.
What is unusual is that three of the bodies were killed with long-bladed weapons such as Japanese swords, and one of them was decapitated.
The other 3 bodies were found in the main room, and at a glance they looked like gangsters. Looking at the traces, he was killed with sashimi.
“Under…. Fuck. How the hell did you cut your throat?”
Oh Jeong-jin looked at the man’s head on the floor and wrinkled his face. If you look at the cut surface, it’s too neat.
This is not possible by human power. It was rare for even the idiots who specialized in cutting off people’s heads to cut off people’s heads at once. However, there is no way that a guillotine was brought here, or a cutting machine.
“There’s no way a person can do such a clean decapitation.”
Looking at him deeply troubled, Mun Ji-hyeok tightened his grip.
‘It’s a vampire. If it’s the power of a vampire… It can decapitate a person in one shot.’
What I don’t understand is the condition of the bodies. There is no sign of blood sucking.
‘If the purpose is something other than blood… ?’
The first thing to do is to find out the identity of this corpse.
“Manager. We searched nearby houses to find out the identity of the victim.”
Detective Park approached Jeongjin Oh and said.
“Okay?”
“First of all, the owner of this house is Jang Seong-min, who has lived there for about a year.”
“He’s got his throat cut.”
The victim’s name is already known. Because my wallet and smartphone were still there.
“Nearby residents say that four people lived together.”
“…… 4 people?”
“Yes. They do not know their occupations, and they say that the four of them often acted together. They say they never talked to the residents and lived quietly without causing trouble.”
“Does anyone know what happened yesterday?”
“I don’t know.”
I don’t know if he really doesn’t know or if he’s pretending not to know. This is because most people are reluctant to get involved in the case.
“Was the other one a gangster?”
“It’s not the corpses in the master bedroom. He is said to be a bully-like man who dyes his hair blonde and has ear piercings.”
“…… Three died, but one lived…. Anyone can see that he’s a suspect. Catch.”
“Yes.”
Detective Park started investigating right away.
“Detective Moon.”
“Yes.”
“Secure all nearby CCTVs and black boxes.”
“All right.”
Moon Ji-hyeok moved. Even as he walked away from Room 603, he couldn’t shake the idea that the culprit in this case was a vampire.
•••
“Is there anything caught on the CCTV?”
Oh Jeong-jin approached Mun Ji-hyeok, who was sitting in the office and watching CCTV footage on his laptop.
“No. Nothing special. There is only one man who cares.”
“A man you care about?”
Oh Jeong-jin looked at the video on the laptop.
“What is this screen like?”
Part of the screen is broken.
“This is the CCTV in front of the apartment. I thought it was broken, but only the front of the camera was damaged, and the video was being recorded properly.”
Moon Ji-hyeok manipulated the laptop and returned the video a bit.
“Is this the man?”
He was a man in a suit. The condition of his body was very good. However, his face could not be seen at all because of the broken part. His body has no special features, making identification very difficult.
“Yes. For some reason, I think this man is the culprit.”
“Is it a touch?”
“…… Yes.”
Moon Ji-hyeok nodded slowly. Yes. It was just a mere touch.
“Detective Moon. You know we’re not fortune tellers, right? No matter how much this guy looks like a criminal, there must be a good reason. If there is no evidence, it’s just a false accusation. And no matter how you look at it, he’s not this guy.”
Oh Jeong-jin tapped the monitor with the back of his hand.
“There are at least two culprits. I’m assuming the gangsters were killed somewhere else and moved here, and the cut pipes around the corpses mean there was a fight. I don’t know how the hell they cut the pipe and decapitated him… It is not something that one person can do alone.”
‘What if it’s not a human but a vampire?’
The words almost came out of Moon Ji-hyeok’s mouth. But I persevered. Oh Jung-jin, who knows nothing about vampires, shouldn’t say anything that might cause suspicion.
Oh Jung-jin is an incredible character.
“And I mean. This guy isn’t carrying anything. No knives, let alone knives. There is no such thing as a bag. Well, unless he has something like a magic bag, he can’t be the culprit.”
“…….”
Moon Ji-hyeok thought differently.
What if this man is the original vampire? What if he has superpowers of the kind of hiding things?
‘… No. Went too far There is no evidence that the man is a vampire, and it is unlikely that Jinjo will commit such an incident.’
Moon Ji-hyeok brushed off his thoughts.
He is confident in his senses, but he cannot proceed with the investigation with his senses alone. Moon Ji-hyeok excluded the man in the screen from the suspect line.
“Oh right. Jang Seong-min’s identity information came out. It turned out that he was a bastard who ran an illegal sports betting site. According to the colleague who caught him today, he put 4.8 billion won in the closet. As you know, not a single penny was found. Maybe this division was born because of money.”
“… Is it money after all?”
“There is nothing surprising. It’s not uncommon for money to be involved in crime. And the three gangsters belonged to the Baewon faction, you know the alley blood puddle incident that happened last time? They are the owners of that blood.”
“Yes? Wait a minute Isn’t something strange?”
“It’s not strange. I found out that he was missing. But it was just found dead today. Bae Won -bang boss is found to be unknown, and they do not know the room they worked. “
“…… I heard that the blood in that alley belongs to four people. Any information on the other one from DNA analysis?”
“He was a healthy man in his early 20s. From the amount of blood, it is certain that he was cut by a knife. Detective Park looked around the nearby hospital, but there was no man in his early 20s who had been cut by a knife.”
“Were the gangsters killed just yesterday?”
“Okay. The CSI said so. He said it was very fresh. There was no sign of torture, but Ma Bong-cheon’s testicles were ruptured. He died as a eunuch… Poor bastard.”
“Another organization caught and imprisoned? No…. There is no reason to do such a thing…. What the hell is this?”
“I don’t know man. The more you dig into this case, the weirder it gets. It’s not common sense. It is said that the culprit is a wizard.”
“… Maybe a real wizard.”
“Why are you like this, man? Anyway, investigate this moderately, collect the data, and hand it over to the special department.”
Special department.
Specifically, the Special Investigation Division. It is a place in charge of special events.
“Are you in a special department again? The Mira case was also transferred to them a while ago, should I hand it over again?”
“What am I going to do about it from above? In this field, special departments specialize.”
Moon Ji-hyeok predicted the commonalities of the cases that were transferred to the special department without difficulty.
Vampire.
Most of the cases that the special agency thinks are related to vampires are transferred to the special section.
“Please wrap it up and send it to me today. The CCTV footage too. If you don’t send it, you’ll be damned again.”
“… Yes.”
Moon Ji-hyeok barely answered while feeling helpless.
As a mere detective, there was nothing he could do.
‘…… If there’s nothing you can do as a detective…. I have no choice but to move personally.’
•••
I got up from the bed, filled with the sweet scent of a woman.
Her body was proud. She wrote the legendary night yesterday and came not to the motel but to Hera’s house and had sex with her after-party.
My life as ‘Vampire Detective’ was truly a sexy life.
‘Should Miyoung sleep at her house tomorrow?’
I have sex partners with some babes. They also look for me when their sexual desire builds up, and I also look for them once in a while and have a relationship.
Among them, Hera had the most relationships. Hera had a stronger sex drive than I expected.
Hera goes to work at Yeonghyejeong and I am the only one in this house.
Jump.
I opened the refrigerator, pulled out a can of soda, and walked towards the sofa.
Hera is living in a high-end officetel, but it is more spacious and neat than a hotel.
When I turn on the TV, the 7 o’clock news is broadcasting.
-This morning. An explosion occurred in a residential area in Seoul. The fire burned five houses in the vicinity. There were 3 dead and 4 injured. Thanks to the efforts of the firefighters, the fire was quickly extinguished. The exact cause of the fire is still under investigation, but an LPG gas cylinder explosion is most likely.
“Ah. This is that episode.”
The fire accident on the news is actually arson. An arsonist is a vampire who set fires just for fun.
The fact that this episode came out means that the current point is the beginning of the middle of the drama. Moon Ji-hyeok catches the vampire arsonist, andhehears information that the vampire organization, Cantra, knows how to turn vampires into humans.
“And arsonists are killed by vampire hunters.”
At the same time, it is an episode that informs viewers of the dangers of vampire hunters.
-At dawn yesterday, gunshots rang out in the museum. The police explained that there had been a gang uprising and declared that they would never sit idly by against gangs with firearms. Next, the deputy chief of police said that Seoul citizens should refrain from entering at night if possible…….
“What?”
I widened my eyes.
Battle of the Museum.
This is an episode that comes out a little later, not now.
The police explained that it was a fight between gangsters, but in reality it is a battle between vampires and vampire hunters.
“…… Fuck.”
I cursed.
This is the fuse that raises a full-scale war between vampires and vampire hunters. And that fuse has already been ignited and will explode in a few days.
The night that Seoul citizens do not know becomes a battlefield.
‘I expected the story to be somewhat twisted. But this… It’s too fast.’
In the worst case, the flower of life that bears the beads of life may not come to Korea. That’s really bad
‘What was the problem? You killed Sungmin Jang? No…. That’s not right.’
That’s what I did the night before yesterday. It doesn’t make sense in time for the event to have an impact.
“…… Bus Terror.”
That was the only answer.
Because of that, vampire hunters have gathered in Seoul, and the Black Cross society is looking for the culprit who committed the terror with bloodshot eyes.
‘In the meantime, he must have found a group of vampires living near the museum.’
Originally, they found it a little later, but it seems that the Black Cross was properly upset by the bus attack.
‘Shit. If the vampire shrinks in its current state… The flower of life may not come to Korea.’
The Flower of Life is currently owned by one of the executives of the vampire organization Kantra. After some time, he will bring it to absorb the energy of the Korean Peninsula.
But what if the Black Cross is running in South Korea? I am not an idiot, and of course I do not come to Korea.
It’s a waste of the spirit of the Korean peninsula erupting after 300 years, but it’s better than having the life orb taken away by a vampire hunter.
My plan is to intercept the Flower of Life when it bears the fruit of the Orb of Life before Moon Ji-hyeok gets it.
‘It shouldn’t happen that the flower of life isn’t on the Korean Peninsula.’
After thinking about it for more than 30 minutes, I jumped up from my seat.
“I’ll have to reduce the number of vampire hunters a bit.”
I brought an object from reality. It’s an item that came out when I did a random draw.
Clown mask on a white background. The mouth and nose are red, the left eye has a green star pattern, and the right eye has a blue cross pattern.
A red wavy wig was attached to the clown mask. Overall, it’s a pretty childish design.
[Devil’s Clown Mask
A clown mask imbued with demonic power.]
