Only I Have Two Towers Episode 140
Found
Jin Yun-ho’s mouth fell open as he entered the house.
Yun Mi-ri, who followed behind him, had a similar reaction.
“It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other… Wow.”
Before the cleaning was completed.
The living room was still a complete mess.
Jin Yun-ho’s face contorted as he came to his senses.
“Were you attacked? Are either of you hurt? Even if they covet rankers from other countries, there’s a limit! What crazy bastard did this!”
“That’s harsh. An attack through the balcony? They’ve lost their damn minds, haven’t they? Or maybe they’re smart? There aren’t any CCTVs that would catch this route.”
There was no room to interrupt.
Jin Yun-ho and Yun Mi-ri continued their heated discussion about catching and killing whoever came through the balcony.
Jinhyeok, who had been sweating nervously, quietly sat down on the sofa.
‘He looks dejected.’
If Jin Yun-ho and Yun Mi-ri’s cursing continued any longer, he looked like he might run out to the balcony.
Cheon Se-yeon clapped her hands sharply.
Only then did the two people stop their discussion and turn their heads.
“About the balcony…”
She gave a clear briefing about what happened today.
“Ah.”
“Oh… I see. The one who broke the balcony was…”
They didn’t look toward Jinhyeok.
They just coughed awkwardly while looking into the distance.
“Hunters are currently at the scene you sent us earlier. The children who were captured are also under protection by the Player Hunter Bureau.”
“This is the document Jinhyeok brought from the scene.”
“Hah… Look at this.”
Yun Mi-ri let out a hollow laugh.
They were already in chaos because of the continuously dying low-floor players.
The government had been calling every day urging them to identify the cause.
But to think all of this was Japan’s scheme – she couldn’t help but be furious.
Jin Yun-ho, who had read through all the documents, closed his eyes with a deep sigh.
“I express my deepest condolences to the players who have already been sacrificed.”
After a moment of silence, Jin Yun-ho looked at Cheon Se-yeon.
“And I’m truly relieved that you’re safe.”
When he first heard it, he wondered if he had heard correctly.
This is the 21st century where science and AI technology have developed brilliantly.
But a curse? People died because of that?
For Jin Yun-ho, who had no religion, it was hard to believe.
But because of that unbelievable act, thirty people died.
If Jinhyeok hadn’t stopped it, who knows what would have happened to Cheon Se-yeon.
“I’m in debt again. Thank you so much.”
Jin Yun-ho bowed his head to Jinhyeok.
If Director Lee Chang-gi had been there, he would have immediately run over and hugged Jinhyeok.
That’s how much ranker Cheon Se-yeon was one of South Korea’s most important assets.
“Hey, what debt?”
Jinhyeok waved his hand dismissively.
As long as Cheon Se-yeon was safe, everything was okay.
“Onmyoji, curses, and hexes.”
A case that was almost impossible to prove.
Such cases weren’t unfamiliar.
The age of great awakening.
In a world where all kinds of abilities ran rampant, things that were logically impossible happened frequently.
But just because it wasn’t unfamiliar didn’t mean there was a clever solution.
Especially this time, they needed to hold another country responsible and demand compensation.
They needed irrefutable physical evidence, but he wasn’t confident it was possible.
“Jinhyeok. I’m a bit hesitant to show you this.”
Jin Yun-ho showed him a photograph.
“Is this perhaps…?”
“That’s right. That’s the onmyoji.”
“Let me see what they looked like. How dare they curse me… Ugh!”
Cheon Se-yeon dry-heaved as soon as she saw the photo.
Though called an onmyoji, this wasn’t in human form.
It was something twisted and crushed everywhere, with only skin remaining.
Seeing the two people’s eyes shaking, Jinhyeok quickly waved his hands.
“I didn’t do this. That old woman received divine punishment for recklessly using curses. You could call it karma.”
“There’s probably nothing we can salvage from this.”
Forget the appearance – it would be hard to even get fingerprints.
“I don’t know if this will help.”
Jinhyeok handed over a drawing.
A composite sketch of the onmyoji old woman.
Though it was a light sketch, it was clear and detailed enough to recognize the appearance.
“Wow…?”
Hot gazes focused on it.
This wasn’t just a matter of drawing a little well.
It was at a level impossible without long-term professional training.
“Did you learn drawing too, Jinhyeok?”
“Well, a little?”
He smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.
His conscience hurt.
Dark had drawn it.
Cheon Se-yeon looked at Jinhyeok and clicked her tongue.
This person, what can’t he do?
“May I take this? I think it will be a great help.”
“Of course.”
After handing over the drawing, he reflected inwardly.
If he had known it would be crushed like that, he should have taken a photo first. He was careless.
Tap tap tap tap.
The sound of rough keyboard typing could be heard.
When did she set up there?
Yun Mi-ri sat at the table, busily tapping the keyboard.
Several windows reflected in her glasses were visible.
“The real estate Jinhyeok discovered was recently rented. Same with the one in Cheonan. I’m tracing the source of the money. I’ve also requested the Immigration Office to check the VIP list of recent entries from Japan. And whether anyone returned after today’s incident.”
“Ooh…”
Jinhyeok let out an exclamation.
It was like a genius hacker from spy movies.
“Mi-ri’s awakened ability is this area.”
Cheon Se-yeon lowered her voice and pointed to her head.
“I think her IQ is over 300 or something. Her brain processing speed is incredible too.”
“That’s amazing.”
If her IQ was 300, what kind of world would be inside her head?
Thud!
Yun Mi-ri, having finished her work, looked at Jin Yun-ho.
“I’ve sent out the request. Marked as highest priority urgent. We should get a response if we wait a bit.”
“Let’s hope those guys missed something.”
“They will have.”
Yun Mi-ri smiled.
“If they’re brazen enough to pull this kind of stunt in another country, they must be disgustingly arrogant.”
Jinhyeok nodded as well.
He agreed.
That Yin-Yang Master grandmother was the same way.
Only after taking a direct hit, only after reaching a point of no return, did the grandmother sense Camilla’s presence.
Before that, she had shown the peak of arrogance, acting like she was the best and all.
“You’ve worked hard right after returning from the United Kingdom. From now on, the Player Hunter Bureau will handle the tracking.”
He got up from the sofa.
There wasn’t much more he could do sitting here anyway.
Let’s go back.
“I’ll see this through to the end. I think I need to completely crush them to feel satisfied.”
Cheon Se-yeon ground her teeth with a grinding sound.
How dare they cast curses so recklessly.
She would make them properly regret it.
“Jinhyeok, you should go quickly. I’ll update you on the situation from time to time.”
“Yes. Then I’ll be going now. Please let me know anytime if you need help.”
Jinhyeok bowed his head and walked toward the entrance instead of the balcony.
“By the way, Hunter Cheon Se-yeon, do you smoke these days?”
“No? I’ve never smoked in my life. Huh? Now that you mention it, there does seem to be some kind of smell. What is it? You don’t smoke either, Jinhyeok.”
“That’s right.”
He answered calmly, but sweat ran down his back.
It was Camilla.
She must have taken a few puffs while he went to deal with the Yin-Yang Master.
“Do curses give off this kind of scent too? Well, anyway.”
Jinhyeok, who was about to really leave now, stopped walking.
Curse, a curse.
Even when faced directly, the Yin-Yang Master hadn’t cowered at all.
Rather, she had acted leisurely and launched an attack at Jinhyeok.
Though it was thwarted by Camilla, it was definitely power that would have been more than enough to harm the opponent.
There was no law saying another person, or Cheon Se-yeon, wouldn’t face such a situation again.
Jinhyeok, who had been rubbing his chin, turned back to look at Cheon Se-yeon.
“Could I use a room for a moment?”
“Uh… Yes. By all means.”
“I’ll use that room over there.”
Jinhyeok slipped into a room far away.
Jin Yun-ho, Yun Mi-ri, and Cheon Se-yeon looked at each other’s faces.
He was already a person full of question marks, but today was even more so.
How much time had passed?
After bustling around for a while, the door opened.
Jinhyeok came out carrying something in abundance.
“Please take one of these each.”
The eyes of the three people who received them in bewilderment widened.
Talismans?!
“Please carry them with you at all times. You understand? Always. Always. Don’t leave them behind thinking ‘Oh, I’ll be fine today’ like in frustrating movies.”
“I’ll keep it attached to my body.”
“I put mine inside my necklace too. I won’t take it off even when washing or sleeping.”
“I’ll put it in my watch right away.”
They weren’t just saying this because they were in front of Jinhyeok.
The opponent was none other than a Runner.
A being with absurd power and abilities.
When such a being urged them this much, to leave the talisman behind? They’d have nothing to say even if they got beaten up and suffered.
“I made plenty of extras. Please distribute them to the people doing the investigation too.”
“Understood. I’ll use my team leader authority to make sure they carry them without exception.”
Jinhyeok gave a thumbs up.
And he left through the entrance with much lighter steps.
Camilla, who had said her arm felt like it would fall off from churning out talismans in such a short time.
He should go home and massage it for her.
Click.
The front door closed.
The three people who had been staring blankly at it burst into quiet laughter.
Yun Mi-ri, who pushed up her glasses, spoke first.
“He’s a good person.”
“A warm person.”
“Really.”
It wasn’t simply because of the relationship between a Runner and the Player Hunter Bureau.
As person to person, he was someone who couldn’t help but genuinely appeal to them.
Cheon Se-yeon let out a quiet sigh.
Thinking he shouldn’t be like that to just anyone, while also thinking to herself, why am I worrying about this?
The scene where the Yin-Yang Master Kurone was killed.
A group wearing hoods appeared at the place the hunters had swept through.
“All clear. It seems the hunters have all withdrawn too.”
After finishing the report, a moment later.
A sports car arrived.
Innovation Party member Sato Tsubasa got out of it.
“Ugh.”
As soon as Tsubasa got out, he covered his nose.
Terrible rotting smell and bloody stench.
To have such a smell in the center of a neighborhood known for high land prices in South Korea.
“Congressman. Just in case, it’s not good for you to stay at the scene for long. Right now, the Korean Player Hunter Bureau and police are in an uproar. If your purpose for visiting isn’t clear, they’ll dig into it.”
“That’s right. Even though it was a low-level area, thirty rookie Players died. They even tried to touch a Ranker. It would be strange if they weren’t furious. They’ll come looking this way soon. They must have known I entered the country.”
“Then let’s go back now. To Japan.”
“Never mind. I have nothing to hide, so why.”
Tsubasa waved his hand and approached the building.
And he closed his eyes and concentrated his mind.
Various traces of lingering echoes began to scatter into the air.
“!!!”
Tsubasa’s eyes widened as he examined the traces.
A smile spread across his lips.
‘…Found you.’
They were here.
The culprit who killed Hosaka Judo, chairman of the Ronia Group.
