In this world, there is also a site called Hero Live, which is made with superpowers.
A site that boasts of ironclad security that even famous hacker groups known to the public, including the government, have been unable to breach.
So it was not surprising that Superintendent Seo Min-jeong, who handles sensitive information, was wary of storing information on digital devices.
Rather, I was more surprised that he came to me relying on such a slim possibility.
‘As Maria said, the situation is that urgent. Inspector Seo Min-jeong isn’t sure either, but it seems like they’ve used all their resources to prepare for any eventuality.’
Perhaps, as Maria added, it may be an attempt to solicit the cooperation of the Lee sisters. In fact, that may be the main purpose.
However, I felt like he was trying to achieve two goals with just one step.
‘He’s definitely capable. He makes those calculations even in an emergency situation like this.’
I never once doubted the ability of Inspector Seo Min-jeong, to whom I gave the pager.
-… I was suspicious just a moment ago.
I wasn’t particularly worried that my identity would be discovered just because I came all the way here.
Things got a little awkward when the caller rang in front of my house.
‘I’ll bring him into the house, listen to what he has to say, and then meet him on the way back as Ignis.’
-I pressed the pager, but what if I ask why you’re so late?
‘Yeah, who told you to press a pager in front of someone’s house and knock on the door right away? Just say that you were waiting because there was a civilian there when you called.’
In difficult situations, if you blame others, most people will be speechless.
Although it is a bad way of life that does not help maintain a desirable and healthy relationship, if you look at it that way, it is the one who made the first move who is at fault.
And what… Actually, it didn’t really matter if it was revealed that I was Ignis.
In the past, I lied about my identity for the safety of the Lee sisters and myself, but now Korea has wiped out all the big villains and I have become incomparably stronger, so there is no need to worry about my safety.
There is no need to worry about intruders, since the Lee sisters have already remodeled their house into something close to a fortress.
Maria also admired the Lee sisters’ work and was thinking about applying it to her own home, so that says it all.
The name value of Hero Ignis has become incomparably heavier than before, so it was clear that Korea would not criticize me as much as I did when I roughly handled villains in the early days when superpowered people were pouring out.
In a way, you could say it’s similar to trying to wash Bae Yeon-hee. The only difference is that I’ve already finished washing.
I went out into the yard with a light heart to greet the early morning uninvited guest.
Bam-
“Hey…! What… ”
As the door opened quickly, Inspector Seo Min-jeong, who was about to knock on the door, straightened up her staggering body.
“Mr. Lee Min-ho?”
“It’s been a while, Inspector Seo Min-jeong.”
“Oh, yes. Long time no see.”
Suddenly opening the door, I was taken aback for a moment, but all I could see was her examining me with sharp eyes.
The way he was casually touching the top of his police uniform seemed a little unnatural.
‘I guess I put the pager over there.’
There was no doubt that my body reacted unconsciously when I came face to face with someone suspected of being Ignis.
“But what brings you here? Without even contacting us… ”
I asked her, acting surprised.
She also seemed to not have noticed anything strange about me, as she answered my questions with a calm face.
“I have an urgent favor to ask of you, Ms. Lee Hye-ri and Ms. Lee Yu-ri, so I am taking the trouble to come to you this early in the morning. Where are you two…?”
“Is it urgent? I thought all projects with the government were finished.”
“No, it’s not that. I have a separate problem. I really need your help… ”
“Is there a problem?”
“Hey, can I meet you in person and talk to you?”
We both pretended not to know anything, but in the end, the one who was left out was Inspector Seo Min-jeong.
Even she couldn’t hide her nervousness, and when I kept changing the subject and not letting her in, she couldn’t stop herself from glancing through the open door and looking into the house.
If I were a woman instead of a man, or if it weren’t for her, wouldn’t I have already pushed through with force?
I let out a sigh of regret and shook my head.
“My sisters drank a lot yesterday and today. Because we ran until dawn, I passed out and fell asleep just a few hours ago. I think I’ll have to come to my senses in the afternoon. What should I do?”
“That, that kind of… ”
It was an answer that made the Lee sisters look like bums who drank a lot of alcohol for no reason, but since they could have just said they were sleeping in or sleeping in, and asked to be woken up, they needed an excuse that would make it so that they wouldn’t even think about waking them up.
However, since I couldn’t honestly say that I passed out during sex and was still sleeping, I had no choice but to give an answer that would save face for the Lee sisters.
I extended a lifeline to Inspector Seo Min-jeong, who couldn’t hide her bewildered expression.
She was a good cop who mercilessly wielded a shotgun at villains, but was also troubled when good citizens had metal plates over their faces.
“It’s impossible for me to have older sisters come out, but if there’s anything I can do, I’ll help. Even if it’s impossible to make something, I can lend you something that’s already been completed.”
“Oh, is that so? Then… ”
Inspector Seo Min-jeong quickly resolved the confusion and told me what she had been trying to ask the Lee sisters.
Since I wasn’t sure it was Ignis, I didn’t tell him exactly what purpose I wanted the equipment for.
However, if you look at the items that were needed, most of them were equipment for short-distance flights or underwater activities.
It wasn’t that difficult to give them away.
Equipment for short-haul flights included things like modified glider backpacks, and most of the equipment the Lee sisters made had a fairly stringent waterproof treatment.
So, there wasn’t any special equipment for underwater activities, but it was usable as long as you weren’t diving deeper than a few dozen meters.
Inspector Seo Min-jeong took the equipment I gave her and went with what appeared to be her subordinates. She said that she would definitely pay them handsomely for lending her the equipment.
And seeing that he didn’t give up poking him with something like, “I’m glad you look healthy” before the door closed, it seemed like being a police officer was his calling.
‘It would be easier if you just thought of leaving the hero’s identity a secret, like the honorary chairman of Nexus Studios said.’
It seemed inevitable that the positions of a simple fan and an investigative agency official would be different.
-It could just be a simple compliment.
‘You were the one who said that Inspector Seo Min-jeong suspected that I was Ignis. But you said that was just a joke?’
-I’m just saying that it could be like that.
Anyway, I put on Ignis’ suit and chased after Inspector Seo Min-jeong. Then I returned to the headquarters and appeared in front of her as she repeatedly pressed the radio button.
“Ignis… !”
“Why did you call? And the reason I came late is because Inspector Seo was doing something else and couldn’t show up. There’s no other reason.”
“… … .”
As soon as I showed up and started making excuses as if I had been stabbed, Inspector Seo Min-jeong was speechless as if something was stuck in her throat.
Although the shape was lost, it saved us from an annoying argument.
Soon she shook her head and decided to explain the situation quickly rather than wasting time.
“… So we have to stop them. But Incheon, where they are expected to land, doesn’t have enough heroes. It will take time to send the personnel in Seoul there. I don’t know if we can finish preparing in time. Ignis, as you said when you gave me the pager, this is a serious crisis right now. ”
‘There is no information different from what Maria said.’
Considering the equipment that Inspector Seo Min-jeong had requested from the Lee sisters, it seemed that the government was trying to solve the problem while the Justice Alliance’s superpowered individuals were still on the ship in the West Sea.
‘Well, once you step in, you know how to infiltrate it with some kind of supernatural power and make it so you can step in.’
I don’t know what kind of communication the government had with China, but seeing that Superintendent Seo Min-jeong, rather than the military, is taking the lead, it seems like they’re planning to deal with people with superpowers.
Considering the pride Koreans have in their Korean superpowers, it’s not such an incomprehensible decision.
But when I thought about it calmly, it didn’t seem easy to deal with the hordes of Chinese superpowered people who were flocking in without me.
What I am saying is that the judgment of Inspector Seo Min-jeong, who called me, was not wrong.
I nodded to show that I understood her explanation and asked.
“Then what do you want me to do?”
“The best way is for them to voluntarily and quietly turn around and return to China. Although Korea is protesting to the Chinese government, the Chinese government says that the Justice League is not officially part of their group and is therefore not listening to the order to return.”
I don’t know what your purpose is, but I know for sure that you have no intention of going back quietly.
So I tilted my head slightly and asked.
“What if that’s impossible?”
“… … .”
Inspector Seo Min-jeong remained silent, but it was easy to see what she meant. It must mean that she was somewhat prepared for a battle.
“Then I will take care of it.”
