Who are you? you? (3)

* * *

Park Do-joon, team leader 2, was sitting in the office and washing his face.

An incident that moved from Team 1 to Team 2.

The victim’s name is Lee Seo-ha, 27 years old.

Three days passed, but there was no one to put on the line of suspect.

Even now, all the kids are out and moving to find clues, but there was no proper contact.

Even if CCTV or black box is traced back, the victim evaporated in a blind spot and became a cold body and was found in the mountains.

The victim was on the way to the place she had promised with her boyfriend.

“Haa… I’ll turn around.”

Team 1 is solving the case and is receiving a commendation.

Park Do-jun had no choice but to put a lot of pressure on him.

Then Kang Ji-ho approached.

“Chief, shall we ask for a profiler?”

Park Do-joon looked at Kang Ji-ho as if he was pathetic.

“Hey, when you think about that, wouldn’t it be right to think about where the clues come from? And a profiler? do you not know? Lee Shin-hyeok is an unusual guy.”

What the profilers got right by chance is what gets talked about a lot through broadcasting, but there are many cases where they are wrong.

Lee Shin-hyeok’s anecdote is also being reported in the media, but it’s a bit different.

Because he was the guy who was solving cases in real time.

“Team leader, it’s a bit harsh to say this, but only three days have passed.”

In the case of a murder case abandoned in the wild, it takes a considerable amount of time just to identify the suspect.

There is Lee Shin-hyeok in Team 1, so it is only relatively comparable, but with more time, we could catch clues and identify them.

“Hey, are you a detective? Are you living without watching the article?”

Kang Ji-ho let out a long breath and brushed his hair.

I didn’t see it, but it looked very good.

[Strong team 2 compared to strong 1 team, couldn’t even find a clue for 3 days…]

Articles with similar titles like these were coming up more and more.

“Chief, should I just ask Lee Shin-hyeok to take a look? Something might come out…”

“Yai-san, you’re embarrassing.”

Park Do-joon sighed and thought for a moment before opening his mouth again.

“Do you know Lee Shin-hyeok’s phone number?”

“Yeah.”

Team 2 made a puzzled expression.

“When did you find out about that? You bastard, did you intend to ask Lee Shin-hyeok in the first place?”

“no. just···.”

“Call me. They say they’ll shoot a big chin later.”

It’s pride, and first of all, you have to find a hole to spring out of.

* * *

Shin-hyeok, who was talking on the phone in front of his mother’s store wearing an apron, asked.

“Are you saying you’re going to hand over the case to Team 1?”

– It’s not like that. I would like to ask you a favor. I’ll take a big shot.

“Because I’ve been eating well lately…”

– Didn’t I flirt with Shin Hyuk the other day? I apologize. I was on edge at that time, so I’m sorry.

Shin Hyuk nodded slightly.

Opponent comes in with pride.

If we give the grace of help here, wouldn’t it be a justification and help our first team’s future?

Either way.

At that time, three women who appeared to be in their early twenties looked at Shin Hyuk and covered their mouths.

“Here it is!”

Shin Hyuk said hello.

“welcome. Are there three of you?”

“Yeah! I am a huge fan!”

“Wow···.”

“You were really handsome.”

Shin Hyuk smiled and politely extended both hands to the door.

“Please come in and sit where you feel comfortable.”

They went into the store with a blush on their faces.

– hello? Mr. Shin Hyuk?

Shin Hyuk brought the phone to his ear again.

“All right. see you tommorow.”

– Oh, thank you.

The three women who entered Shin-hyeok’s soup restaurant were at a loss.

“saw? shape of eyes? So f*cking sexy.”

“Wow, what a vampire prince he is.”

Just then, the door slid open and Lee Shin-hyeok came in.

Even though he was wearing a suit and an apron, he looked insanely good.

It made me feel like I was filming a movie scene by myself.

Shin Hyuk came over and smiled.

“We will help you order.”

“Gu, three bowls of soup…”

As the friend stuttered, the other friend quickly opened his mouth.

“please recommend!”

“Gukbap is delicious, but the meat is really good.”

Their eyes shone brightly.

“Yeah. finish it.”

“What do you mean by gijibae? Then please give us three bowls of rice soup and a large piece of pork!”

“Give me some soju!”

“Yeah. We will prepare it soon. Please wait.”

Even though Shin-hyeok turned around, their eyes didn’t seem to fall.

the next morning.

The detective who came as a powerful team 1, the team members looked at with dumbfounded expressions.

Sujeong Lee asked.

“What happened to Detective Kang in such a shabby place?”

Park Jong-min got up from his seat and approached Kang Ji-ho.

“Oh, why is Kang Ji-ho here?”

Kang Ji-ho smiled bitterly.

“I have a favor to ask of you.”

Park Jong-min made a surprised expression.

“Hey! Booo!? The powerful 2nd team beats the 1st team!?”

Team leader Jang got up from his seat and asked.

“ask? What do you want?”

Kang Ji-ho bowed his head and greeted Team Leader Jang.

“good morning. manager.”

“I think listening to what you say will decide whether it will be a good morning or not?”

“You know what happened to our 2nd team? I came to ask Shin Hyuk for some advice.”

Team leader Jang laughed.

Then it is.

“Did you ask for permission from Do-jun? If your team leader knew you came, there would be an uproar, right?”

“Yeah. He said he would shoot a big chin later…”

“You said you came here with permission?”

“Yeah.”

“Really?”

“Yeah.”

“…”

Team leader Jang, who was at a loss for words for a moment, opened his mouth with a deep smile.

“It’s not something to do without a shot. What can I do to help people who live on the same pot? But our treasure no, if Shin Hyuk says he doesn’t like it, it’s not something we can do about it.”

“I talked to Shin Hyuk over the phone yesterday. I can take a look.”

At that time, team 2 leader Park Do-joon came inside.

“Gucheol-ah, shall we have a cup of coffee?”

Team leader Jang, who had blinked his eyes, let out an absurd laugh.

“Hey, what is this situation? so what?”

When the two went outside, Kang Ji-ho asked Park Jong-min.

“Shin Hyuk, are you still before work?”

“Look at the time, what time is it? It’s still before work time.”

It indicated 8:49.

but.

“It’s time to come.”

Lee Shin-hyeok always got to work at exactly 8:50.

[08:50]

When the electronic clock indicated 8:50, Shin Hyuk entered.

“good morning.”

Park Jong-min greeted Shin-hyeok in a suit with a scary smile.

“I’m here? Are there guests?”

“Ah yes.”

Shin Hyuk slightly bowed his head to Kang Ji Ho.

Sujeong Lee said:

“Did Shin Hyuk say he would look after you?”

Shin Hyuk answered cautiously.

“Yeah. If I can help catch the culprit, that would be great.”

Ichigo smiled and shook his head.

Having watched Shin Hyuk all this time, if he was a culprit, he would wake up and chase him to the ends of the earth.

I didn’t like Team 2, but it’s a different matter than catching the criminal.

The culprit must be caught first.

It wasn’t just Lee Soo-jeong, but all of Team 1 had the same idea.

Kang Ji-ho looked at Shin-hyeok and said.

“came?”

“Yeah. What about the case?”

Kang Ji-ho was empty-handed.

“He’s on our team.”

Park Jong-min said.

“Then should I bring it?”

“There are a lot of documents, so Shin-hyeok, let me ask you a favor.”

Shin Hyuk said.

“It’s because the team leader’s permission hasn’t been given yet.”

Kang Ji-ho nodded.

As usual, the team leader went out to talk with the 1st team leader.

Jiho Kang said.

“Then I’ll see you later.”

When he went outside, Park Jong-min looked at the door and opened his mouth.

“It’s the first time I’ve lived and seen Kang Ji-ho coming with his tail down.”

The same goes for the 2nd team leader.

To give an analogy how absurd this situation is.

“Everything is special. Hey, tarantula. Aren’t you going to have a boyfriend soon too?”

Things that are difficult to happen are unfolding due to Lee Shin-hyeok.

So, what if a tarantula suddenly got a boyfriend?

“Shin Hyuk, I’m just saying this just in case. Don’t even think about introducing her to a boyfriend. He has a different personality…”

“What is he saying now? Gaechaban is your face.”

* * *

The profiling of the case did not go over to Team 2, but Team 1 decided to do it.

Kang Ji-ho brought the case documents as if he were holding them and came to Shin-hyeok.

Jiho Kang said.

“Can I share my opinion with you?”

I wanted to watch Shin Hyuk’s profiling from the side.

How different are the perspectives on the case.

And how do you figure it out?

Shin Hyuk replied.

“My opinion is just an opinion, it is not 100% correct.”

“There is something that Shin Hyuk has shown me so far, but you don’t have to be that humble.”

Kang Ji-ho’s friendly attitude made Shin-hyeok understand how much the second team was struggling.

“Shall we look at the scene of the incident?”

Shin Hyuk turned over the file.

Photos of the scene were visible.

Dressed, hanging limp from a tree.

Shin Hyuk peered at the corpse’s neck.

“The laces do not overlap. parallel. It’s neat.”

But there is nothing there should be.

In the case of suicide, the defense mechanism is unconsciously activated, and in the process of putting a hand on the neck, nail marks or epidermal exfoliation may occur, but I cannot find such a point.

“Yeah.”

Kang Ji-ho was curious about Lee Shin-hyeok’s next words.

Shin Hyuk said.

“If you kill someone by strangling them with something soft like a scarf, and then hanging them secondarily, this type of string will appear.”

In an instant, Kang Ji-ho’s eyes widened and his head reflexively turned to Shin-hyeok.

After death, I heard from a forensic scientist that the damage that led to the victim’s death fades over time, leaving only clear traces of string in the form of a disguised suicide.

However, Lee Shin-hyeok, who looked at the photo for a moment, said it casually.

“What about DNA?”

“37 different DNAs were detected in the clothes. They were not registered with the DNA bank.”

It means that he is not an ex-convict.

Of course, the DNA was being compared and analyzed with those around the victim.

Team 2 is holding out hope for now.

Shin Hyuk looked at the pictures of the victims from different directions and turned over the documents.

Height 163, weight 45 kg.

My job is a manager at a small company.

“What about the victim’s personality?”

“It was ordinary, nothing special. I am not the one to commit suicide. My parents said so, and my friends, acquaintances, and boyfriends said so too.”

Shinhyeok nodded and looked at the victim’s credit card details and account transfer details.

Among the many details, there was no assumption that Shin Hyuk thought, that is, there should be.

“What is the victim’s waist size?”

Kang Ji-ho looked at Shin-hyeok again at the sudden sound.

“Yes?”

“Did you go through the victim’s closet? In the photo, the jeans the victim is wearing look a little out of place. They look like skinny jeans, but even the underwear is slightly visible. If the perpetrators killed the victim and then stripped off all their clothes and put them on, the 37 pieces of DNA detected make sense.”

People who stop by the clothing store, touch the clothes and try on a lot.

this moment,

“ah···.”

Jiho Kang let out an exclamation without even realizing it .
