The Reincarnated Cop Who Strikes With Wealth

Chapter 17.3

The Snakes Proposal (3)

If theres no issues, lets help each other out. Wont that be nice?

This was an apple.

The whisper of the snake that seduced Eve.

As if I was struggling internally, I bit my lip while thinking deeply.

If we just do a good job persuading Dal-Gon, this might work out even better than I had thought.

Since a way to catch all of these guys in one go has fallen right into my lap.

A ruse that will scoop up both the Fork Gang and the Guma Gang into the same trap.

Especially this fearless bastard.

From his words and actions, I didnt think this was the first time he had pulled such manipulations.

Hmm. In any case I was grateful. Since he had willingly delivered himself to me on a plate.

While rising from my seat, I burst out laughing.

No. I meant that its too much for you to try and buy me with just this.

Huh?

Lets put an end to this now and head back to the station.

I should let my team know about this first.

Ma Eun-Taes eyes shifted to follow me.

Just what do you have for brains that gangster bastards like yourself would come looking for a police officer.

Is our sincerity not enough? Something like this should be a fortune compared to a policemans paltry salary. If you just let us know the location of the drugs, Ill double the amount.

It looks like you didnt do a thorough background check?

I flipped the bag upside-down and poured out all the cash.

Then I used my foot to kick it up into Ma Eun-Taes direction.

His face was colored red with perplexity and displeasure.

You will regret this.

Regret shit. Im loaded. And civil servants arent allowed to have two jobs. Anyhow, there should be a limit to your ignorance. Phew.

In the distance, the Guma Gang lackeys were opening their car doors and climbing out.

It felt like they were on the verge of running over.

I held a hand out towards them.

Hey hey. No need to come on over. Im leaving anyway.

Ill let them off for today.

Ahem. It was definitely not because of the looming paperwork.

However it felt like we would see each other soon.

While smiling at Ma Eun-Tae, I gave my farewells.

Since the hammer is a present, Ill take it with me. Goodbye for now. Next time we meet, youll be getting dressed in stripes. You know that, right?

Im not too sure about that. Because I dont believe that there will be a next time.

Thats something for me to make sure of.

Leaving the Guma Gang mooks behind, I exited the vacant lot.

For a piece of evidence to be turned in before a body has even been found.

It seemed like this would become a pretty interesting case.

Buzzz- Buzzz-

At that moment the cellphone in my pocket vibrated.

The caller was Black.

Hello?

-Hey. Newbie. Did the interview with DK go well?

I heard the voices of the Team Leader and Mong-Doo coming through from beside him.

They must have been in the middle of going somewhere as the background noises were loud.

Yes. Ive just finished and Im in the middle of heading back.

-Good work. But dont return to the office, head over to Hwanak River.

Hwanak River?

-A body has been found. Were all on our way to the crime scene.

No way. Already?

Things are going faster than I had thought.

I caught a taxi and headed to the scene.

The Hwanak River wound a long path from the lower reaches of the Han River into the Suan borough.

Cops and gawkers formed a thick crowd around the scene.

Nobody is allowed to enter.

I took out my official identify badge and showed it to the officer blocking my way.

Detective Go Ji-Hun, assigned to Su-An Police Station

It was one of the few moments that really made me feel like a cop.

Youre here?

Black, who was wearing a mask, called out to me and waved me over.

I saw the swollen thick hands and feet of a corpse sticking out from beneath a white cloth shroud.

The dark blue spots raised up on the corpses skin looked horrific.

Sorry Im late.

Its fine. It wouldnt make a difference if you had come here earlier.

By the way, Ive got something-

Weve found a shoe!

I heard someone shout in the distance.

Then the investigators that had been gathered here began to flow over there in a slow trickle.

Black picked up and examined the sneaker that had been placed in a plastic bag.

The shoe was covered in mud and pondweeds.

On closer inspection, the corpses left foot was also missing a sock, leaving it bare.
