After a meal meeting with the members that lasted several days in a row.

I was able to organize some of the information I had discovered about the Citizen Love Welfare Group.

“Hmm… .”

First of all, there are a total of 5 security personnel.

The confirmed shift time is 9 p.m. sharp, and there is a custom of gathering near the building and smoking together during shift time.

It would be nice if we could break into the building in time… .

Due to the nature of the area, there was a lot of floating population, and it was so early that it was difficult to secretly invade.

‘I guess I’ll have to wait until dawn.’

And one more thing.

This is a fact that I found out by chance, and that there may be quite a lot of manpower inside the welfare center building.

While having a meal with Na-rae Kim, I happened to look out the window and saw several delivery motorcycles coming in and out of the building.

Considering the huge amount of food, it seemed like there were more people inside the building than I expected.

‘It would be better to avoid battle as much as possible.’

According to information in the original work, all of them have mediocre skills except for Yoon Jae-deok, who has A-level abilities.

It was a level I could handle with my own skills.

Of course, since you don’t know how the situation will turn out, it would be best to infiltrate as secretly as possible.

‘CCTV is the problem… .’

One thing that catches me off guard is the CCTV installed inside the building.

I wonder how well the scoundrels can monitor, but the fact that they don’t know the exact internal information creates variables.

‘Should I cut off the electricity completely?’

Since I have a way to see clearly even in the dark, cutting off the electricity is a good strategy.

The problem is how to turn off the electricity… .

‘… After all, isn’t this… .’

Considering the lack of information about the building itself, it would have been much better to infiltrate by destroying the CCTV cameras one by one.

‘If everything fails… . It’s just a head-on attack.’

In the end, the most important thing in this plan is the escape route.

Since you can’t avoid being chased once you’ve committed something, honestly, even if you ruin the plan, all you have to do is run away.

“Let’s see… .”

Finally, I put all my plans aside, turned on the internet map, and started looking for a suitable escape route.

After several hours of effort, I was able to find a suitable escape route to avoid pursuit.

*

On the day of the plan.

[00:12am]

“… Let’s go soon.”

After completing various preparations, I put on my dark-colored combat uniform and clothes, and even put on the combat mask I had prepared in advance and headed to the veranda.

Grumbling──

When the veranda door opens, a cool breeze blows into the house.

“… Phew… .”

I took a deep breath, gathered my composure once again, closed the veranda door, drew up my magic power, and placed my hand on the outer wall outside the veranda.

Woowoowoouk───

A definite adhesive feeling that can be felt through gloves.

After confirming that it was definitely stuck, I stepped on the building with my toes this time and slowly climbed up as if I was climbing.

‘Just as I practiced… .’

Suddenly, the body hanging on the wall began to feel a strange sense of floating under the influence of gravity.

“… can do… .”

I repeated a low self-suggestion, and with my center of gravity pushed down, I gave a kick and bounced up to the top of the building.

Taaaa!

When you defy gravity, the wind pressure weighs down your entire body.

Taaaa!

As I climbed the exterior wall of the building like the main character in the hero movies I enjoyed watching as a child, I felt as if I had become the main character in the movie.

“Phew… .”

After safely climbing to the roof of the apartment.

I inadvertently sighed at the strange feeling of stability that my feet were touching the floor, and couldn’t hold back the laughter that suddenly burst out, raising the corners of my mouth.

A sense of liberation.

It was an overwhelming sense of liberation, as if I was releasing everything I had been holding in all at once.

‘You can’t get excited.’

I’m fully aware that I shouldn’t get excited.

Because I don’t want to install it like a beginner and mess up the job.

however… .

The fact that I was able to jump with my own two feet was more stimulating than anything else.

I couldn’t stop my heart from pounding from excitement.

Taaa-!

I ran over the buildings, hiding in the dark night sky.

So that even if someone sees me, they won’t recognize me.

‘It’s like this.’

After running around for a while, we arrived at Gangnam.

I managed to get close to the welfare center, avoiding the brightly lit streets, and hid myself on the roof of the building and began using my abilities to observe the surrounding situation.

‘… The expenses are the same… . ‘They’re all D-level.’

The welfare group’s security personnel are still only D-class.

It seemed like the people who were shifted at 9 o’clock were on guard even in the early morning.

‘I’ll have to wait a little longer.’

I was watching the streets, waiting for the floating population to decrease further in case of any disturbance.

Then… .

‘… Is there something strange?’

A man started wandering around the middle of the alley.

[Name: Jo Jang-gu / Potential Rank: D / Abilities: Presence Blocking Lv1, Basic Swordsmanship Lv1]

As a result of checking his abilities, he was a low-level ability, barely equivalent to the F level… .

No matter how I looked at it, its movements felt suspicious as it was loitering around in a blind spot where even the streetlights barely reached.

‘what?’

That moment.

The man stood in the center of the square, looked around, stuffed something into the crack in the wall, and quickly started to leave.

And then… .

‘… ‘Huh?’

I approached the Citizens’ Love and Welfare Group building, exchanged greetings with the security staff as if we knew each other, and then naturally went through the front door.

‘Are you a black society guy?’

Now that I think about it, I’ve heard that there are many cases of illegal drugs being traded using a method called ‘throwing’.

I clearly remember the method of trading drugs by leaving them in a specific place… .

I think I unintentionally witnessed a drug transaction.

‘To say it so openly… .’

I was slightly taken aback by the method, which was more sloppy than expected, and quickly looked away, thinking it was not that important.

If we deal with the black community, those people will naturally be dealt with as well, so I thought that catching Yoon Jae-deok would actually be helpful.

As dawn deepened, the floating population decreased, and even the guard guarding the outside was reduced to one person.

‘… Let’s move slowly.’

Sensing that the time had finally come, I immediately started packing my things to break into the headquarters… .

“… … ?”

At the beginning of an empty alley, someone began to enter the alley, acting suspiciously.

‘… ‘You’re a buyer.’

I could tell right away that this was the person who had decided to purchase the drugs.

Since I was wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a mask at this early morning, I had no choice but to recognize him even if I didn’t want to.

‘Should I wait longer…? .’

I quickly changed my break-in plan due to the appearance of a buyer.

After the transaction was completed, someone would soon come out of the building to take the money, so breaking in now was not good timing.

“Tsk… .”

Thanks to that, I was relieved of the steam, so I sat down again and watched the buyer’s actions.

‘Let’s see what kind of pathetic guy he is.’

And then I used my abilities without thinking to find out the buyer’s information… .

“… … Huh?”

*

Jeopuk─ Jeopuk─

An alley so quiet that the sound of footsteps echoes softly.

Seol Joo-hee, who had gone out in secret from Hong Yu-ra, was walking through a dark alley, looking unusually nervous and wary of her surroundings.

‘I said it was here… .’

The reason why she, who was not nervous even when facing an S-class monster, became so nervous in a dark alley… .

This is because they came here to trade illegal drugs.

“… … .”

Of course, Seol Joo-hee did not intend to purchase drugs from the beginning.

Seol Joo-hee, who was surviving day after day on psychiatric medication, just needed a small change.

Seol Joo-hee’s values, which until now had thought that ‘drugs are something only pathetic people do’, began to waver.

Over the past few days, she has been asking various information from a seller she found on social media.

Which one is strong and which one is less addictive?

Also, which one is of good quality and which one is popular.

Since I was only doing it once out of curiosity, I thought I would prepare properly and do it only a little.

Of course, I knew it was best not to do it in the first place, but… .

‘… Because it’s just one time… .’

At least once, I decided to buy it, thinking that it would be okay since I was at least an S-class person.

“… … .”

Seol Joo-hee was very nervous as she looked at her phone and reflected on the transaction location.

‘Cracked wall between the 4th and 5th street lights. 170cm from the floor… .’

Then, feeling uneasy, I looked around and checked the exact location by counting the number of street lights from the entrance to the alley.

‘… ‘There it is.’

Eventually, she found the location of the drug and took action immediately.

‘… Stay calm… .’

Try to pretend like nothing is wrong, as naturally as possible.

However, her gait was already filled with nervousness.

“… … .”

Seol Joo-hee finally arrives at the trading location.

She looked around the alley while hiding in the shadows between the streetlights, and quickly began searching through cracks in the wall using the light of her cell phone.

and.

“… … !”

Between the cracks in the wall, I discovered something of a strange white color.

It was a drug.

‘Jeez, it really was there…’ .’

Seol Ju-hee, who was staring blankly at the white powder in the crack, took out a wad of cash she had put in her pocket in case someone saw it, and quickly put her hand through the crack in the wall and took out some medicine.

Rustling─ Rustling─

She was so nervous that she hurriedly stuffed the medication into her pocket without even checking it, then quickly put in the cash and reached out to leave… .

“What are you doing now?”

Suddenly a familiar voice came from behind.

Seol Joo-hee, startled, reflexively flinched and looked back.

“!”

The moment I encountered a mysterious man wearing a mask just like me, I inadvertently opened my mouth.

His eyes were so familiar that they appeared in my dreams every night.

It was definitely Do Ji-hyuk.

“… Yes, why are you… .”

Do Ji-hyuk shifted his gaze and glanced at the wad of cash in Seol Joo-hee’s hand.

And then he suddenly grabbed her wrist… .

“Oh, it hurts!”

“Follow me.”

I dragged Seol Joo-hee through the dark alley.
