After receiving approval from the CEO to proceed with the project in Jeju Island.

Hyeon Se-rin and I went out to the streets late at night together to get information about fake goblins.

“Do you think you can’t go up to Jongno-gu?”

“Yes. There were so many people around.”

No matter how much the Seoul of this world is ruined, even if the capital redevelopment took place and it became a city with less than 5 million people, it is still a place where quite a lot of people live.

In a place like that, a goblin like no one else appeared?

People tend to flock right away.

“Hello, this is Woogi TV’s Kiwoo Lee! They say a goblin appeared today…”

“Yes, the scene is crowded with Seoul citizens and people from all over the country. Accordingly, the Hero Association…”

It is crowded with Cyber Wrecka, the Hero Association, reporters, and most of all, Seoul citizens.

Because so many people are occupying the road, vehicles that need to enter to preserve the site cannot easily enter the roadway.

“Ah, get out of the wayㅡㅡㅡ!!”

A nervous scream rang out.

Suddenly, everyone’s electronic devices lost signal due to the sound that overwhelmed all other sounds, and everyone’s attention turned to the person who caused the sound.

“Thunderbolt…?”

“From the Hero Association! We ask citizens to cooperate with the on-site investigation!”

The black-haired woman holding a red megaphone, standing with both feet on the roof of an SUV with the association’s mark on it, and frowning and shouting was none other than the S-class hero, Thunder Emperor Kim Yun-ji.

“Oh my, Yunji is here?”

Hyun Se-rin looked at Kim Yun-ji with a happy face, but with cold eyes, and put her arm around my shoulder.

“How did that amazing S-class come to Seoul? Huh?”

“First of all, the A-class hero in charge of southern Gyeonggi-do died as a villain, so he must have come to Seoul temporarily to comfort him.”

“I think so too.”

It’s because he was executed, but if you think a little deeper, there is no such thing as a national disgrace.

Oh my god, the A-level hero, the representative hero in charge of a region rather than a city, was actually a vicious villain who was destroying men’s testicles behind the scenes.

Compared to the same A-level Marine instructor who is promoting Korean Marines in Thailand by teaching young Assays to become Korean Marines, it is not only a disgrace to the national prestige, but a disgrace.

Naturally, public order is shaken and people cannot help but feel anxious.

Since the hero was doing villainous things, how scared would the citizens be?

To put this to rest, of course, you need an S-class hero who is even greater than an A-class hero.

It is not very strange that Kim Yun-ji, the emperor of the brain, came to Seoul.

It’s just that it wasn’t a very good meeting for Hyeon Se-rin, who came to Seoul with me.

“Hmm…. I never thought that a guy who steals from others would come to Seoul. It’s annoying. We need to be more careful about transmission.”

“Ours won’t get caught, right?”

“Still, you have to be careful. What doesn’t get caught could actually get caught.”

“Indeed.”

If you sprinkle water on the drawing paper and there is a part that is not wet, of course, that part is bound to splash into your eyes.

The Emperor is one of the most powerful beings in modern society, as if he had just set off an EMP around him with his magic power.

‘He’s as annoying as King Taejo.’

One who manipulates metal.

One who manipulates electricity.

In modern times, after the industrial age, being able to freely manipulate metal and electricity is a great strength.

He may not have the physical power to turn hundreds of tons of gold into a golden train like King Taejo did, but how powerful is he to be able to destroy all facilities that run on electricity?

“If you do not cooperate and open the way, I will discharge the batteries of your Taegeuk Watch and smartphone!”

Although he was a hero, people frowned and backed away at the threat that was more vicious than a villain, and soon the Hero Association’s vehicle was barely able to get up to the scene.

“It’s still the same, that temperament. Chief Do. What does the manager think of a woman like that?”

“There are no women like that around, so I can’t make judgments, but it doesn’t look good.”

“Aren’t you just saying that I don’t like women?”

“It’s not like that. I’m speaking objectively.”

I put my hand on Hyun Se-rin’s shoulder and patted her.

“If you’re a hero, you should explain it to people in a good way and ask them to open it voluntarily, but a person with this ability must use it to intimidate civilians with force.”

He is said to be an S-class hero, but in reality, he is close to an S-class person with special abilities.

However, the reason they call him a hero is probably because he is not a villain.

An S-class troubleshooter employed by the Hero Association.

The only thing that can be summarized to that extent is the position of Kim Yun-ji.

“How should I sneak through the irritated crowd? You have to investigate.”

“There are already too many people to conduct field research. Even if you investigate in spirit form…”

“Rather than getting caught by the Emperor for no reason, is it better to just investigate the other side?”

“I think that is better.”

I took out my smartphone to Hyun Se-rin.

“On-site investigation is also an on-site investigation, but after investigating the site, you go to check the body.”

Like the cliché that always appears in forensic crime dramas.

“Seoul Sunshade General Hospital.”

“Ugh, I really hate it.”

The Emperor, Yunji Kim, jumped over the no-entry tape and shook her head at the blood stains that filled the scene.

“Detective. Detective, what do you think? It’s the same man, but he did this.”

“I don’t mean to say this lightly, but if you think about it as a man, he was a guy who deserved to be hit.”

Detective Park, the man in the gray coat who crossed the no-trespassing tape with Kim Yun-ji, answered the emperor’s questions by scribbling with an electronic pen on his smartphone.

“Even if he is a eunuch, even if a scandal breaks out about the idol he likes, how can he do something like that?”

“Scandal… Well, it was a scandal that broke out the entire idol group, so it must have been a shock.”

“That’s right. It’s hard for me to say this, but since you’re my daughter’s age, I’d like to tell you something: You, Emperor, be careful. Love scandal.”

Detective Park scratched his head and scanned the surrounding alley.

“If the story spreads that the Emperor is getting married or meeting a man, there will be a lot of men jumping here and there.”

“…What rhythm should I move to? People are making a fuss about being patriotic. Rather than suddenly being photographed with a man, should I make a public declaration in advance that I want to meet that man?”

“That might be better. Otherwise, someone turning black like Nut Crasher might appear.”

“Hmph….”

The Emperor Tweaked the corner of his mouth and rubbed his fingers.

“For a person like this to turn black as he pleases… haha, no. Let’s investigate.”

Emperor the Terrible stood in front of the white sticker and raised his hand high.

“Do you mean the goblin here executed Nut Crasher like this?”

“That’s right.”

“Like this.”

The Emperor created a blue mana bead in his hand, placed it on the floor, and then stomped on it with his foot, causing it to explode.

“Keuhm.”

Those who were investigating the scene unconsciously flinched at the action.

Detective Park was also drooling for no reason, but the Emperor stomped on both beads and broke them.

“If you were a goblin-level skilled person, it wouldn’t have been difficult to blow up an A-level item… Hmm, that’s a little strange.”

“What’s strange?”

“Hmm… It’s difficult to put into words.”

The Emperor continued to tilt his head as he swept the remains of the two electric beads he had broken from side to side with his foot.

“…No, it’s nothing.”

“It’s pointless. If anything comes to mind, please let me know. It’s impossible for old people like us to find evidence when a crime is committed.”

“Okay. Hmm….”

The Emperor remained silent for a long time, standing where the goblin had been standing.

“…….”

As if he was thinking deeply about something, he was staring at the asphalt full of blood stains, like a raw egg had exploded.

Arrived at the hospital.

The hospital was already full of people, and people in black suits were blocking the roads and preventing outsiders from entering.

[It’s easy.]

Hyeon Se-rin and I used our spirit form to immediately pass over the Association’s agents and head inside.

No one noticed us.

[Where is the location?]

[underground.]

I looked for the location of the body based on the information I obtained from the housewife.

Although I couldn’t take the elevator, I went down to the basement using the emergency stairs and found a place where there was darkness at the end of the passage, where agents in black suits were standing.

‘excuse.’

Go through the wall and go inside.

Although it consumed a bit of mana, it was well worth the mana consumption.

In the middle of what looks like an operating room, there is a white coffin.

The coffin had a sunshade symbol on it, and inside the coffin, Nutcrasher, wearing a white shroud, was lying with his eyes closed.

[Sunshade’s auspicious effect is amazing. He’s an A-level villain, but he’s still providing mutual aid to customers?]

[If you don’t do it, you’ll get criticized for not doing it again. And they said that Haeguneul also provides corporate sponsorship. I can’t just send it away.]

At most, he would have received tens of billions of dollars in support just because he was an A-level hero, but he dies as a villain?

[Even if all the remaining money is taken away, even if you sue the dead person or the surviving family, you should get the money back.]

[Large companies do more.]

[That’s Korean style.]

This is the story of the sunshade.

[Then…I’ll check. Hyeon Se-rin, don’t look.]

I materialized only my hand and lifted the shroud.

And confirmed.

[how is it?]

[there is.]

Of course there was nothing that shouldn’t exist, but I ended up seeing something that existed that shouldn’t exist.

[The stick remains, only the beads were broken.]

I don’t know who the counterfeit is.

-Goblins don’t do things like that!

I would like to convey the shout out of Goblin fanatic, Ms. Yoon, to the fakes.

-Just break the pot, or just destroy the whole thing!

Yes.

I popped out the counterfeit products by hand.

[The culprit is a woman.]

Men don’t touch other men’s things.

But if you decide to break it, then don’t do it this way.

‘Even if you hit it with a gun, you go to the hospital and hit it twice with your sword. There’s no way you could just pick out an egg and explode it like this.’

Not only did it break the egg, it must have exploded the stomach as well.

If they really wanted to make this man permanently impotent, they would have made him look like the lower body of a mannequin without a trace at all.

Since you’re a nut crasher, you’ll pay back equally?

Since you’re going to die anyway, are you just trying to leave a message?

well.

[So the culprit is…]

[Don’t play around.]

[I got caught.]

[Do you know who it is?]

[uh.]

The woman is right.

[What is the evidence?]

[wound.]

It’s not about where it exploded.

How did you explode it?

[Based on the open wound, the culprit is-]

Sigh.

The door to the morgue opened.
