Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 267

Chapter Final Request

Inside the Special Interrogation Room of the Awakener Management Bureau.

Daniela, an investigator from Interpol’s Enhanced Criminal Task Force (ECTF), glanced at the mirror attached to one wall.

Beyond the mirror, Jin Siwon and his team members would be watching the inside of the interrogation room.

Currently sitting in front of Daniela was Dr. Alex Bon, the underground bigshot that Jin Siwon had arrested.

Daniela had hurriedly come to Korea to find the guy that Jin Siwon had caught at the airport.

He seemed quite uncomfortable with the handcuffs, making clanking sounds as he tried pulling on the chain.

[“It looks impossible to break with those delicate arms of yours. Why don’t you give up now?”]

At Daniela’s sarcasm, he seemed to get heated and slammed his handcuffed hands down on the table with a bang.

[“Fuck.”]

Daniela paid no attention to Alex’s profanity and asked.

[“Did you come to Korea to escape from Amakusa Reiji?”]

[“Did I? Should I be honored that a bigshot like Rage is looking for me? But what to do. That wasn’t why I came to Korea.”]

[“Otherwise, there’d be no reason to come all the way from Mexico to this distant foreign country. Are you trying to save some pride?”]

[“Do you want to have a conversation with me, or do you want to piss me off?”]

Daniela smiled brightly.

[“Both. Rage must have been hunting you down like a rat to kill you, but you managed to survive desperately. Congratulations.”]

When she even clapped for him, Alex dramatically placed his hand on his chest.

[“Kind Daniela, thanks for the fucking congratulations.”]

Daniela burst into laughter.

He spoke as if he wasn’t concerned about Rage, but Alex had already started shaking his leg.

Well, he couldn’t help but be nervous.

Had there ever been a request that Amakusa Reiji failed?

He must feel like death was right before his eyes.

[“He’ll come looking for his prey. Rage will.”]

When Daniela spoke in a low murmur, Alex’s eyes suddenly sparkled.

[“Oh my, kind Daniela. It wasn’t me you were curious about, but Rage.”]

Daniela’s eyes widened at his following words.

[“Did you say a close friend died at Rage’s hands?”]

Daniela immediately replied with a coldly hardened face.

[“…My friend is just missing.”]

[“Do you really think so? There’s no way that Rage would have made only your friend disappear so nicely, right?”]

[“It’s interesting that you know more than I thought. You were acting like you didn’t know anything just a moment ago, weren’t you?”]

[“That friend and I were once research lab colleagues who worked on a project together, so there was no point in pretending not to know.”]

She lowered her eyes at his giggling voice.

In fact, it wasn’t wrong to say that the reason Daniela hurriedly came to Korea was to find Rage’s whereabouts.

Officially, she said she was looking for her missing friend’s whereabouts, but she was about 99% certain that Rage had killed her friend.

Daniela’s close soulmate was one of the research team members who had participated in ‘Project Wilderness.’

But if that was the case….

[“You know that Rage is killing every single researcher who participated in Project Wilderness without exception, right? And that you’re the last one.”]

[“Is that so?”]

Alex shrugged his shoulders, pretending not to know.

[“Didn’t any of the guys you worked on the project with contact you before they died?”]

[“Well, I can honestly say for certain that we weren’t the type to keep in touch. It was a long time ago too….”]

Alex crossed his arms as if lost in thought.

After On Ijo entered the 100th Floor, he never came back down from the Tower, and the project gradually fell apart and ultimately ended in failure.

And when failure was imminent, the researchers who had participated in Project Wilderness scattered one by one.

Since renowned researchers from various countries had joined with the sole purpose of inheriting On Ijo’s power, each probably had their own greed to take the data and implement it themselves.

Well, he himself had no interest in that at all.

Alex had been leaking research data to the underground from the moment he joined the project.

On Ijo’s research files?

Because he had a hunch they would be profitable.

And that hunch was right on target.

Based on the leaked research files, countless people were sacrificed in the underground, but that had nothing to do with him.

When he was collecting money under the table like that and the researchers began to scatter as On Ijo didn’t return, he completely immersed himself in the underground.

Because he realized he loved profitable work more than research.

He had finally found his calling.

Alex rubbed his wrist that was chafed by the handcuffs.

If he waited just a little longer, he would be saying goodbye to these cumbersome handcuffs and that arrogant Interpol investigator.

His partners would come to rescue him soon enough.

How many people would be in trouble if he opened his mouth about the countless pieces of information he knew?

Therefore, what he needed to be careful of wasn’t Korea’s Jin Siwon or Interpol’s Daniela.

It was Amakusa Reiji.

Alex irritably kicked the table with his foot, bang bang.

[“Hey. Is food still far off? You should feed me before doing whatever you need to do.”]

[“Alex Bone.”]

[“Food! Give me food! I’m hungry!”]

Bang bang bang!

It seems he has nothing more to say. Daniela crossed her arms.

[“I’ll come again, Alex Bone. Eat well and stay alive. Hide your face well so Rage can’t find you.”]

Grind. Alex clenched his teeth.

[“Yes, Daniela. I hope you find your missing friend in the meantime.”]

[“….”]

Daniela shot up from her seat.

Behind her, Alex’s giggling laughter leaked out.

Daniela bit her lower lip firmly and opened the door to the interrogation room.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

As soon as the door opened, what greeted her was Jin Siwon wearing glasses.

When he greeted her with a smile, Daniela smiled back and adjusted her translation device.

“Thank you for the cooperation of the Korean Awakener Management Bureau, Team Leader Jin. But would it be alright if I visit a few more times in the future?”

While there were still more stories she wanted to hear, she had a strong intuition that Rage would come to Korea to look for Alex.

To meet Rage, she needed to be in Korea, and for that, she needed an appropriate reason.

And the reason of interrogating Alex was quite suitable to give to her superiors.

Jin Siwon spoke gently as if he knew her thoughts.

“As long as you don’t ask us to leave so you two can talk alone, anytime is fine.”

“I can’t go that far when I’m the one asking for favors.”

While it was uncomfortable to interrogate publicly since it involved private matters, she was still in the position of requesting help from Korea.

It was then that Daniela smiled bitterly.

“Ah, Investigator. Please wait just a moment.”

Jin Siwon smiled brightly as if he had spotted someone and resumed his steps behind Daniela.

“Guild Master On!”

Guild Master On? No way. Daniela turned around and widened her eyes.

‘On Jurim?!’

Tall height, handsome appearance, and even the glove on his left hand.

It was that On Jurim she had only seen through screens.

Daniela watched with fascination as On Jurim greeted Jin Siwon without any reserve.

‘Are they close?’

Even though he had defected to Korea, she thought they would have no contact since their work was so different.

Daniela couldn’t take her eyes off the two talking intimately.

It was that On Jurim.

The legend of the Tower. The undisputed strongest person at present.

Even though he was followed by rumors, he was someone she admired as an Awakened, and someone she was personally curious about.

‘Should I try greeting him?’

It was while Daniela was contemplating whether to acknowledge On Jurim or not.

“Please take this.”

Jin Siwon was handing On Jurim a mascot costume set.

On Jurim took the mascot costume and glared at Jin Siwon with an uncomfortable expression.

It was the Management Bureau’s tiger mascot costume.

The distinctive feature was that it was ugly, as if Gru had made it.

“Is this really all there is?”

“Ah, well, you could go to the costume room and choose. Though they all look pretty similar.”

On Jurim looked like he wanted to punch Jin Siwon’s gently smiling face.

“…Fine. I’ll go with this one.”

On Jurim replied as if annoyed and soon began putting on the ugly tiger doll clothes.

At that unbelievable sight, Daniela’s mouth fell open.

On Jurim’s terrible temper was well known even in America.

‘On Jurim… that On Jurim, why is he wearing a mascot costume?’
