[This is an extra villain.]

‘found.’

After patrolling with Park Seo-in by my side for a few days, I got the hang of it.

I looked at the widest possible area and asked the guidebook to let me know if there was a villain in sight.

The guy who was just caught is the second victim.

The first villain was just an ordinary criminal, so he was arrested and handed over to the police.

‘I wish this guy had something.’

I spoke quietly to Park Seo-in, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

“Do you see the woman wearing a beige hat to my left?”

“Yes.”

“Please mark that person.”

“Please leave it to me.”

Nod-

The driver’s side window rolled down with a small sound.

Park Seo-in stretched out his arm across my face.

I had Park Seo-in drive on the first day, so why am I holding the steering wheel now?

The reason was for the current situation.

Even though she was already a fan of mine, there was no way she would be able to use her super powers properly because she would be nervous if she was in charge of driving.

To ensure a successful hit, I changed the driving to something I do myself.

Whether you were driving or navigating from the passenger seat, the number of people in your field of vision was almost the same.

Park Seo-in, who seemed overly gloomy at first, seemed to relax after sitting in the car all day and actually feel a bit sore.

“Phew…”

Piyungㅡ

The gray smoke launched from the tip of Park Seo-in’s index finger flew towards the person wearing the frowning clothes I was talking about and hit him.

As soon as I saw that, I turned on my emergency lights, parked the car on the side of the road, and ran out.

Jump up!

“Please guide me well.”

“Yes!”

When a man wearing a hero suit suddenly appeared in the middle of the street, passers-by let out surprised voices.

“What, what is it?”

“Hero! Mom, you’re a hero!”

“Ignis…?”

“Aaaah! This is my first time seeing Ignis in real life!”

When the people who discovered me made a fuss, the villain sensed it and turned around.

“……!”

Did he intuit that our eyes met through the mask?

He immediately turned his back on the guy and started running away.

However, his running speed was ordinary, perhaps because he had strengthened his body or awakened a speed-related supernatural power.

Boom!

With the dull sound of hitting the floor, the fleeing guy’s back got closer in an instant.

The villain looked back and was frightened when he saw me running at him with the force of a tank.

“Ugh…!”

At the same time, the guy is rummaging around in his arms.

As soon as I took a breath, the villain, who had been chased to a distance where I could catch him, took his hand out of his arms and swung it towards the surroundings.

Whiik!

“Eat it!”

I immediately used high-speed thinking to see what they had done.

What sticks out from the arm that the villain swings are miscellaneous items such as iron beads, coins, and candy of various sizes.

If she wasn’t a psychic, it could have been seen as just a simple struggle, throwing whatever was in her hands.

However, perhaps to live up to the name of a villain, the speed at which the miscellaneous things moved through the air was unusual.

The fiercely scattered throwing objects had the force to break or pierce at least one place if an ordinary person were hit by them.

It seemed like that villain’s superpower was throwing something hard.

‘It’s a troublesome superpower.’

If it were my ability, I could have just ignored that level of attack and rushed forward, but the problem was the citizens around me.

As the sun was slowly setting, the street was full of people leaving work, so if we leave it alone, one or two people will not end up getting hurt.

Since I heard he was an extra, I grinned, thinking I would catch him and interrogate him, but my mood cooled down at that moment.

Boom!

He slammed his foot down into a sidewalk block and stopped his body.

I stretched out my body as much as possible and directly caught the flying projectiles.

Because the distance was narrowed, the entire launch angle of the projectiles was able to be covered.

Too doo doo!

A sound like hail falling on vinyl was heard and the projectiles bounced off.

I took out my shield from my inventory and blocked everything that passed by to the left and right.

Patter.

Crushed and broken projectiles fell to the ground.

I turned my head and looked around to see if I had missed anything.

“Wow!”

“I think I just got a little tired…”

“It’s awesome!”

“Please look here!”

Clap clap clap!

Fortunately, no one was injured among the citizens gathered around.

I left behind the applause of the now-familiar safety-insensitive citizens and looked back toward the direction the villain had fled.

“Hiik…!”

When I glared at the villain without getting hit at all, he was so startled that he grabbed the doorknob of the building next to him and went inside.

The speed at which the villain fired the projectile was so fast that he was unable to increase the distance.

“You are a rat in a poison.”

I followed him and entered the building.

Jump up!

The glass door opened, revealing the interior of the building.

Colorful clothes are displayed on hangers and mannequins are placed in every corner.

It looked like an ordinary clothing store.

“……?”

Customers and employees were taken aback by the sight of a man in a jumpsuit suddenly barging into the store.

I first grabbed a person who was close to the door and asked.

“Did you see where the person who just entered the store went?”

“Eh, eh? No… no one just came in…?”

‘what? ‘I don’t think I’m in league with the villain.’

The customer testified that he entered the store just a few seconds apart but did not see anything right next to the entrance.

Are you shocked by the sudden appearance of a hero, causing confusion in your memory?

I looked around, but no one seemed to be fully conscious.

First, I decided to search the inside myself and walked into the store.

‘Did you hide in a pile of clothes?’

I removed the clothes from the hanger, eyeing the disgusting mannequin with suspicion.

Sigh ㅡ

I searched the surrounding area for a while, but the villain was nowhere to be seen.

“Hmm…”

It was a familiar sight that gave me a feeling of déjà vu.

Like the villains who suddenly disappeared as a group from the bank, this guy also disappeared in an instant right in front of me.

‘How on earth did they do this?’

Lost in thought, I grabbed the cloth blocking my path to remove it.

“Well, there…!”

I heard the voice of an employee coming to my senses from behind, trying to stop me, but I ignored it.

‘Please cooperate in arresting the villain.’

Sigh!

“……”

A woman in underwear who was lowering her skirt to change clothes looked at me blankly.

After making eye contact like a statue for a few seconds, she wrapped her arms around her body and covered her underwear.

“What, what is it!”

“Uh… I’m sorry.”

I had already used my high-speed thinking and was done with the eye candy, so I apologized obediently.

I thought he was going to scream or something, but it was a more normal reaction than expected.

If it were reality, he would have instantly fallen from a hero to a villain, but fortunately, in this world, the genders are reversed.

Although she was taken aback by the sudden situation, the woman in her underwear blushed as she looked me up and down.

Since it was a hero suit that revealed the body, it seemed to naturally attract attention.

-Ignis!

At that time, Park Seo-in’s radio call was heard, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

This was thanks to a feature update that linked the suit’s communicator with the hero team’s radio.

And after working together for a few days, we reached an agreement that although we couldn’t help but use honorifics, we would use simple titles.

I closed the curtain again when the woman tried to say something and answered the radio.

“Silver Chaser? What’s going on?”

Since there were people outside listening, I spoke to her using Park Seo-in’s hero name.

-The villain’s location suddenly moved to a different place!

“Where is that?”

-It suddenly appeared five blocks to the northwest! As if it had fallen from the sky without any intermediate movement!

“……Bingo.”

The sense of déjà vu I felt while searching the store was not an illusion.

I finally found a guy who used the same escape method as the unidentified villain organization.

Maybe it’s something that has caught the organization’s tail.

“I’ll move right away.”

-But since it’s under the jurisdiction of another hero team, you have to notify them first to make an arrest…!

“Once you catch it, let’s think about it. If you miss it, there may be another victim.”

Of course, I had no intention of letting go of the clue I had caught because of such red tape.

The hero team system has not yet been properly established, and the need to notify is only a recommendation.

Heroes who have a special attachment to their region may feel a little uncomfortable, but this means that there is no particular disadvantage to breaking it.

‘Personally, I think I should receive a thank you note.’

-……yes!

Following Park Seo-in’s guidance, I left the clothing store and started moving.

-Turn left from there!

Following her words, I kicked in the door of the building on the left and entered.

bang!

“What…?”

“Is he a villain?”

“It’s Ignis, right?”

“Hero!”

The building we entered this time appeared to be a restaurant.

The few guests looked puzzled.

“Excuse me.”

Huh!

“Aaaah!”

“The wind…!”

“What just happened?”

In an instant, the wind blew behind me as I exited through the back door, turning the inside of the restaurant into chaos.

-Go straight from there and turn right at the next alley!

“Okay.”

I answered while running down the road.

To be honest, I didn’t think Park Seo-in’s superpower was that good, but when I received support for it myself, it turned out to be a very convenient ability.

I was able to travel five blocks in an instant without having to take my bike out.

widely!

-It’s right nearby!

“If you ever move to another place, please let me know right away.”

-yes!

I went up to the roof of the building near the location given by Park Seo-in and looked down at the road.

And as I calmly observed the passers-by, I caught the image of the escaped villain.

The guy had his head down and was walking slowly while looking around.

Perhaps because it was a less crowded street than before, I was able to check it out quickly.

Whiik!

Without hesitation, I kicked off the railing and jumped down.

bang!

With a loud noise, the sidewalk block at the point where it landed broke apart, and dust rose up.

“……!”

The villain, who witnessed the hero landing nearby, was startled and put his hand into his arms.

“Do you think you will fall for the same trick again?”

I kicked a piece of the broken sidewalk block.

puck!

“Ugh…!”

The villain who was hit in the arm with a rock let out a groan and dropped the miscellaneous items he was holding in his hand.

I spoke to the guy who was hesitantly taking a step back, clutching his injured arm.

“Now, follow me obediently. Because I have a question for you.”

Wow~

“Lee, let go of this…!”

In the end, the guy who was grabbed by me started struggling.

‘Should I knock this thing unconscious and take it away?’

I thought that if I continued to resist and struggle, I would have to break one of my arms.

“Hiik…!”

“……?”

At that time, the guy suddenly looked somewhere else, gasped and got scared.

I turned my head to where the gaze was directed.

There, a career woman wearing a well-pressed suit was standing there looking at us.

“The villain is under arrest. It’s dangerous, so stay back.”

Again. Again.

Instead of retreating despite my warning, she moves closer.

She stopped with just a few steps left.

“It’s dangerous, so don’t come closer…”

“I understand there is a separate hero team in charge here.”

She interrupted me and asked a question.

“Are you here seeking cooperation?”

“……Who are you and do you know that?”

A woman who suddenly jumps out and challenges the arrest.

She introduced herself with a somewhat chilling smile.

“This is Kang Da-kyung, team leader of Supernova, the hero team in charge of this area.”
