＜ Onion-like bastards. (2) ＞

“now?”

Before Hyejin could open her mouth, her mother spoke quickly.

“Shin Hyuk-ah, there’s no such thing. Come on.”

Shinhyuk nodded with a smile and moved his chopsticks.

“Mom, it is so delicious.”

“I’ll do it again next time. Eat a lot.”

“Brother, it’s salty.”

“Is that so? braided.”

The two drank well, giving or receiving alcohol with snacks.

The mother looked at her son and daughter with delight.

He looked happy.

“I need to go to the bathroom.”

Shin-hyeok asked when the mother left.

“Hyejin-ah, that’s what I said earlier. can you say it again? The person who took the money, where did you say it came from?”

“Did you say it was the ward office? He said he came out of the sanitation department.”

Shin Hyuk nodded slowly.

“How did you come and catch me?”

“Looking at the refrigerator, looking at the duct ventilator, and seeing a piece of dust, they said so much. It’s clean, but the intellectual quality is just…”

Even when Shin Hyuk saw it, the store was very tidy.

Not to mention the kitchen.

Even if you think about it as a third party, not your mother’s store.

My mother was a very tidy person even though she hated avoiding others.

But even a speck of dust can catch a pod.

This means that even a small amount of frost in the refrigerator or freezer can be pointed out and punished.

There are many other things that can scare you.

There are several very funny situations.

When a shop owner makes and sells dumplings, he or she must indicate the country of origin of the pork in the dumplings, but when selling dumplings purchased as finished products, the country of origin of the pork is not required to be indicated.

However, kimchi dumplings are different.

If kimchi is included, the country of origin of the kimchi must be indicated.

If you make naengmyeon broth yourself, you must indicate the country of origin of the beef bone or meat you brewed, but if you buy and sell frozen broth, you do not have to indicate the country of origin.

Fried rice is similar.

As if ridiculing consumers, there were no specific things.

That’s why the shop owners are heh?ⅧZhuang構? Even those who came out of the inspection often get confused.

“How did your age look?”

“Um… about 50?”

“How are you dressed?”

“It was just normal.”

Shin Hyuk, holding a glass of wine, nodded slowly and continued.

“I don’t think he came only once?”

“Come visit me whenever it’s a holiday.”

Shin Hyuk’s eyes went quiet.

He came as if he was receiving a bonus or rice cake.

In the past, this was very common.

Fire officials came to extort money, officials from the ward office came to visit, the police came to visit, and everyone came to visit, and it was a mess.

Currently, the number of civil servants is about 1.7 million.

There are many civil servants who work with integrity, but there are also those who turn clear water into muddy water like mudfish.

However, there is a high possibility that he is not a civil servant now.

Shin Hyuk felt the thirst climbing up his neck in a cool way.

– A man in his 50s.

– The technique is classic and outdated.

– Have you been a public official or have worked in a related field?

‘I don’t know how many times government officials came to me when I first opened the store.’

– May have a criminal record related to organized and fraudulent

– It is highly likely that the crime scene was searched and selected as a target.

– If you do not have a family, or if you do, you must be living with blood ties and backs.

“Older brother.”

Shin-hyeok’s eyes, which had been darkened by Hye-jin’s voice, suddenly became clear.

Shin-hyeok smiled unconsciously at his brother’s words.

It felt like the emotions that split like a drought disintegrated in an instant.

Like a calm lake.

“My brother drinks well. Jjam.”

Shin Hyuk thought briefly as he brought the glass to his lips.

Of course, I won’t let you go.

Then my mother came out of the bathroom and smiled.

“Oh, drink in moderation.”

Hyejin said as if she meant something.

“Mom, now the two of us drank a bottle.”

Hyejin glanced at her brother.

“Brother, another bottle?”

“It’s good.”

Her mother shook her head as she saw Hyejin taking the soju.

“He’s a drunkard. drinker.”

“It is a good day. Mom, I need to go to the bathroom.”

When Shin-hyeok went to the bathroom, his mother asked Hye-jin who was shaking a bottle of soju.

“Is it good to have a brother?”

“I feel tired. Tired, my friends keep asking me to introduce them~ When are they going to show me~ They say they are coming to the store~.”

He said that, but Hyejin’s voice was full of pride.

She looked at the place where Shin Hyuk disappeared and continued.

“It’s good. Because I have a reliable older brother.”

I can’t express it well in words, but I was really relieved.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Hearing the knock, Hyejin turned around.

I thought you were a guest.

Hyejin got up from her seat and approached the door.

“Business is over.”

“Isn’t it until 10?”

“It’s until 9 o’clock. sorry.”

“I thought it was until 10 o’clock. Oh, then I’ll just give you this.”

“I don’t buy it. sorry.”

“······, that’s not it, this is me. Ah, Shin-hyeok’s colleague. colleague.”

“A colleague?”

“Yeah. Could you open the door for a minute?”

“Wait.”

When Hyejin said that she was a colleague, she raised her hand and turned the lock without any doubt.

rattle.

In an instant, Lee Hye-jin’s steps slowed backwards.

I was arrogant when I saw the man in front of me.

And I screamed involuntarily.

“Ooh, my brother is a cop!”

It was because a really scary-looking person was laughing at himself terrifyingly.

Hearing Hyejin’s cry, Shinhyeok quickly approached.

“who···.”

Seeing the man standing outside, Shin Hyuk blinked.

It was Park Jong-min senior.

He smiled terribly and looked at Shinhyuk and Hyejin alternately.

“Here it is. Surprise~! Is this the younger brother Shin Hyuk was talking about? You look really pretty.”

After that, I heard senior Choi Dong-cheol’s voice.

“Hey, apologize quickly. you were surprised hello. I am a detective working with Shin Hyuk.”

The appearance of senior Lee Soo-jung.

“I’m sorry for coming so suddenly. I stopped by on the way, but it seems we didn’t get the timing right.”

Park Jong-min wiped his bald head.

“I think they said until 10.”

Lee Hye-jin blinked and Shin-hyuk said with a similar expression.

“I told you until 9 o’clock…”

I didn’t expect that people who are having a drink today would come to me like this.

Then mom came over.

“Are you the people who work with our Shin Hyuk?”

All three bowed their heads politely.

“Yeah. Mother, we are receiving a lot of help from Shin Hyuk.”

“Oh my gosh, nice to meet you. Don’t just stand there, come in.”

Ichigo smiled awkwardly.

“Business hours are over, but next time…”

Mom waved her hand with a bright expression.

“Is it over? As you like, please come in.”

“Oh, then excuse me for a second.”

As the three rushed into the store, Hyejin whispered to Shinhyuk.

“Brother… are you really co-workers?”

One had the size of a bear that could easily roll a compact car, and the woman was pretty enough to be seen as a celebrity.

And the other one looks really scary like the Korean-Chinese in the movie.

“That’s right.”

Shin Hyuk remembered the first time he went to work for the first strong team.

It seemed that Hyejin was also feeling the feelings I had at the time.

Mom welcomed the three of them very warmly.

“Please sit here.”

“Mother, where should I put this orchid?”

“You bought all these things. thank you Do you like suyuk? That’s all I have to offer right now…”

“I can’t eat without it.”

“mother! Just stay! I will do it.”

The three set up a table and brought water and soju as if they were part-timers.

Dongchul Choi said.

“Hey, Jongmin-ah, scrape 300,000 worth first.”

“No! I just want to thank you for coming here, but what about the money, hurry up and eat it. If it’s a hat, say something. And please take good care of our Shin Hyuk.”

Choi Dong-chul stood up from his seat and smiled while holding his hands together politely.

“Oh, don’t talk like that. We owe a lot to Shin Hyuk.”

Park Jong-min also helped.

“I think Shin Hyuk’s extraordinary hair is because he resembles his mother. Your brother is also very pretty. How old are you by any chance?”

Hyejin was startled and replied.

“I’m 22 years old…”

Lee Soo-jeong gathered her white eyebrows and whispered to Park Jong-min.

“Hey, don’t open your mouth, eat it. I am just eating.”

That day, Shin-hyeok’s soup restaurant couldn’t stop laughing.

* * *

next day.

Wearing blue jeans, white sneakers, and a black hat, Shin Hyuk was outside.

Anyone could see that he was dressed like a college student.

The place where Shin Hyuk is now standing is a galbi restaurant that occupies both the first and second floors, about 5 km away from his mother’s shop.

Upon entering, Shin Hyuk held out his ID.

“It is the police. Do you have a boss?”

The slightly surprised employee nodded.

“Wait.”

Soon, a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his mid-50s appeared.

“I’m the president, but why…?”

“Boss, have you ever had a hygiene check in the past year or two?”

“no. I never did. Because we care so much about hygiene.”

“Thanks for your cooperation. Good luck.”

Shin Hyuk came out immediately.

Mom’s shop and the Galbi restaurant located here.

To the east, the distance was only 7 km.

Circumstances reveal that the guy chose an easy place.

Yesterday, as a result of showing photos of civil servants working at the district office to Hyejin, she said that the man’s face was not there.

Shin Hyuk smiled.

The very fact that he took my family lightly… It seemed that the vitality from Shin Hyuk’s white face disappeared like a haze.

‘You catch it with my hand.’

Shin Hyuk’s steps moved west this time.

The essence of geographic profiling was evident in Shin Hyuk’s gait.

I avoided places where restaurants were lined up.

Only restaurants that are not competing with each other and that are about 2 to 3 km away from each other should be selected and inquired.

And since I had already narrowed down those stores, all I had to do was visit them.

Before long, we arrived at a street vendor selling tteokbokki, fish cakes, and sundae.

It was a street vendor that you would often see on the road.

There is no law banning street vendors per se.

Even the street vendor was a job listed as ‘stall and mobile salesman’ with the code 53220.

However, acts that interfere with the structure of roads or traffic in accordance with Article 75 of the Road Act are subject to legal sanctions.

There are also commercial regulations.

Food Sanitation Act – Consumer Protection Act.

Garbage Disposal Regulations – Waste Management Act.

However, this street vendor was not in a form that interfered with traffic or sidewalks, and not a single piece of garbage was seen around.

As Shin-hyeok approached, a middle-aged woman with a 1-year-old baby on her back greeted him.

“welcome.”

“Can I go and eat fish cakes?”

“of course. Eat comfortably. There is soy sauce there.”

Shin Hyuk lifted the fish cake and brought it to his mouth.

As expected, the fish cakes eaten at street vendors had a special taste.

Shin Hyuk skipped two more.

As Shin Hyuk brought the fish cake soup from the paper cup to his lips, he saw something like a certificate of membership in a street vendor attached to one side.

She moved like a baby and smiled.

“I would appreciate it if you could break the skewers and throw them in the trash next to it.”

There is also a trash can on one side.

“The fish cake soup is also very refreshing and delicious.”

Shin-hyeok asked what kind of action she would show, and took out her ID card and said the following.

“I really enjoyed the meal. It is the police .”
