Kidnapped Dragons (KR Web Novel)
Chapter 11: Against Common Sense (1)
Its him, right?
‘Exactly, my lord. It matches the information within the files checked back in the office.
The copy was certain of it.
Yu Jitae searched his memories. Deadline for the investigation was just around the corner and as the information about the human trafficking group was revealed, all traces of Jo Hosik had vanished from Lair.
He had literally disappeared into thin air.
Since the case was bigger than expected, pressure given from the Haytling city and Lair was reduced but the atmosphere was replaced by hopelessness due to the case becoming more difficult to resolve.
‘I had actually been planning to go out and catch him myself sooner or later, but things do happen in interesting ways.
It truly was a strange coincidence.
But thinking back, it did make sense. A human trafficking group targetting superhumans and the largest identity laundering place within Korea – the fact that Jo Hosik was in between those two parties, might even be considered natural.
In any case, it was a good thing.
Heaving out a deep breath, the Regressor crouched down in front of the man and looked directly into his eyes.
“P, please dont kill me… p, please…”
“Do you want to live?”
He, who had been heavily trembling, widened his eyes when words escaped Yu Jitaes lips for the first time and smacked his head down onto the ground. Perhaps he saw something similar to hope.
“Please, please let me live… I, I have a family waiting for me at home…”
“Family?”
“Ye, yes… I got married three months ago. My single mother is old, and I have a, a wife, and theres a child inside her stomach…”
“And?”
“They only have me with them… if Im not there, theyll all have trouble living… p, please just let me live…”
He cried while shaking like a leaf.
Yu Jitae wasnt interested in whether those words were true or not, and he also did not ask him a question along the lines of “If you have a family, how could you do something like human trafficking?”. Such words were meaningless.
He only waited with his mouth closed.
It was because right before he was about to crush the head of the other person, Yu Jitae had seen Jo Hosik place his hand on the watch. He mustve sent an SOS or the likes, and currently, something must be approaching this way.
“Please, please…”
…And this guy was trying to buy time while acting his heart out.
That was a good thing.
Sure enough, soon, signs of life neared in from the other side of the dark alleyway. Just like how Jo Hosik was at a decent level in human standards, they were the same and their footsteps did not create noises while them unsheathing their swords did not break the silence.
“…”
Clack.
Without saying a word, they took out their respective cold weapons.
Compared to what he had gone through up until now, this was comparatively an insignificant thing. There were no injured dragons and it wasnt important enough to have an impact on the Apocalypse.
He could have resolved it with words. If he wanted to, he also could have handed the situation away to others without saying a word. Such choices existed.
Even then, he deliberately induced a situation like this and remained standing.
The Regressor made a hazy smile.
A persons mind was hard to please. While wandering around endless hell, dripping with blood, he had desired to escape it as quickly as possible but now that he was strolling around a flower garden, there was a sense of emptiness within.
