Chapter 48: 21st Century Robin Hood (2)

Minjuns gaze grew heavier. "Aren't you mistaken?"  

At this, the princess smiled self-consciously. "We saw it with our own eyes and we talked about it," she said. "Even though I was foolish enough to be swayed by a human without a single scale, I am not an idiot who cannot recognize an ancient race."  

The princess was ashamed of the fact that she had a crush on the human who made the decisive moment for her arrest, and her words were filled with regret and self-pity that could not be hidden.  

Meanwhile, Minjuns thoughts became complicated.  

Did you face carbite?'  

That was hard to believe. It was strange that the tribe was acting as an immigration broker, and it was also not surprising that it appeared in front of the Stan people. But as he thought more about it, he quickly understood the reason for the latter.

If I didnt do that, the princess wouldnt believe me. He would have treated it as a bluff to say that lobbyists were also able to lobby. However, they did not expect the princess to be arrested in vain, and as a result, they left evidence of carbide being involved in this case.'

  The image of that race was drawn in his mind. A snake-like body covered with brown hair and a curled tofu. Minjun had always hated that race.  

It was not just because of the extremist claim that bail was not granted to prisoners and that they should be beaten until they lose their minds. For unknown reasons, he felt so disgusting that he didnt even want to look at anything that looked like them.  

"Did they prepare and move the cargo?" Stan nodded helplessly.  

"We didn't even know what it was." They never came close to Jenkinsons Lair. He simply went to the location designated by the immigration broker, picked it up, and transferred it to the jump ship.  

It's a case of being used as a smuggling agent without knowing the identity of the contents'  

The real thieves were guessing that the dimension would be sealed the moment they turned on the rare. Even in such a situation, if you want to float the jump ship at the terminal, you need to get some transportation from other world VIPs.

The princess then spoke in a tired tone, "They asked for help, as this will often happen in the future. But, it failed on the first try."  

All Jenkinson items have been recovered. Are there other items to be leaked illegally?'  

"I risked my life but in vain."  

She knew in advance that there were people on Earth who did not welcome her. Minjun remembered the news that there was an unusually loud noise about the security guard in the process of coordinating the princesss visit to Korea.  

That woman had come prepared in advance. However, she did not intend to put a tip here that she had acted foolishly to the other party.  

What would she have done if she hadnt been on the guard? She may have been Theo Christian Sen, but she said that if she did, she would not have escaped death.  

Jenkinsons cargo along with her coffin must have been smuggled into the Gelanco dimension. Those who commissioned this may have thought that it would not matter if the princess returned to her body.  

If she was alive, she would do the same thing again, and when she were to die, she would find the next target. Then the question was what was the next thing?  

"Then, let's go this far." Minjun got all the necessary statements and got up from his seat.  

The criminals eyes followed the criminal. The woman who dreamed of resurrecting her race by mimicking her sins blinked her eyelids from bottom to top. Her eyes were full of emptiness in which all expectations were shattered. said the crocodile.  

"I will never really see you again."

It was just as it was said. That was the last appearance of Princess Vermi that Minjun saw.  

***  

Minjun, who came out of the interrogation room, immediately went up to the top floor of Jenkinsons headquarters and confronted the red dragon who had been polymorphed.  

"Carbite?! No, its too much work.  

It was not his responsibility to uncover the conspiracy beyond this. After faithfully reporting the contents of the statement as a contract employee, Minjun returned to the position of the creditor and investigated the talent repayment plan.  

Then, the dragons expression changed. "Just a little more time!"  

Then, Minjun looked at Jenkinson with displeasure and suggested one thing. With the intention that if there was no place to get money right away, he would fill it with his body.  

The old dragons labor had a value that could not be converted into money, especially if the dragon was the head of a corporate group that was counted as one of the seven chaebols in a country.  

"What? Demonic Goblin?"  

The hint Dell gave at the terminal was about an extinct creature that the Commission wanted to get its DNA from.

Although the prisoners were also commissioned in the form of special missions, they were actually close to hopeful advisers, and it was said that the few full-time employees directly hired by the committee, that was, real employees', also started the work.  

It turned out that they had been half-abandoned in obtaining undamaged, pure-blood DNA, and very recently modified their strategy. He could remember what Dell said.  

In summary, we want to analyze subspecies DNA mixed with even a little blood and draw genes like a puzzle.'  

After unremitting efforts, they made a meaningful discovery. Evidence came out that the blood was mixed with a goblin who lived in a dimension long ago.  

However, it was a late discovery. As with many dimensions, it had been a long time since they emigrated to various places in search of a way to kill goblins because various problems overlapped and a global diaspora occurred.  

One of them was Earth.  

"Isn't this looking for a needle on the sandy beach?" Murmured Jenkinson.  

"You want us to collect the DNA of all the goblins living on Earth and run a test? Guys, did you know that 85% of goblins in Korea alone dont have health insurance?  

No  

Okay! Many of them have never been to a hospital since they were born! Moreover, there is not a single medical or insurance company in our group. Because of that wicked woman!"

Minjun nodded in sympathy. "It will not be easy. It is a difficult matter."  

Okay!  

"Then what should I do?"  

   What?  

"From now on, you have to do that. instead of me."  

"Oh, no. Wait a minute!  

Throwing away such a tricky problem to Jenkinson, Minjun returned to his daily life. After that, for a few days, nothing special happened. Minjun broke the alien pot once in a while, drank alcohol in the office, adored Go TV with a determination to win someday, waited for Dells call, and quarreled with Jeongpal, who argued over the rental period of the frying pan.  

Meanwhile, some news became a hot topic in several dimensions adjacent to the committee headquarters.  

***  

"       Really?"  

Jenkinsons eyes soon became cold as he received the belated news. He pushed the goblin-related documents from his desk and concentrated on the secretarys new document. The document contained information not yet known here.  

Earth was not only quite far from the level of occurrence of the incident, but it was not aired in the media and there was no chance that it would be dealt with in the future because it was breaking ties with the interested party, the Gelanco dimension.  

After sitting like that, he gave a congratulatory order as if he remembered it belatedly.  

"Yeah, I see."  

Even after Blair, who bowed his head, retreated, the Red Dragon stared at the report with a cold expression. It was news of an accident related to a jump ship that started from a far-off remote dimension.  

The moment the ship attempted the fourth of the six-dimensional leaps after leaving the place of origin, a sudden rejection reaction of which the reason could not be guessed appeared at the dimensional barrier.

  Although no lockdown was imposed and despite properly obtaining the Commissions Leap Code, the jumpship was exposed to unexpected resistance and pressure. Even the barrier that covered the outer skin could not withstand it.  

Eventually, the jumpship escorting criminals known as the Stanyans was crushed by the force pushed by the dimensional barrier. It was reported that there were no survivors.  

***  

"Excuse me." This week too, the ghost who came out to watch the protests in Gwanghwamun,  

Ha Eun-seong, looked at the woman approaching him. It's a shaman.'

In the official term, the spirit-sensitive person. Just as they could see ghosts, ghosts can see that they are no ordinary human beings when they looked at the psychic. Just by looking at it, it was different.  

Even if one didn't bother talking like this. A woman, who appeared to be in her mid-to-late 30s, took off her sunglasses and smiled at her. Looking at her face, it wasnt the shaman she had met at the protest the last time.  

"I thought you would be here, but I was lucky to meet you at once."  

Since they couldn't touch objects, of course, in order to make contact with the ghosts who cant even carry cell phones, they had no choice but to pick up places where they often gathered.  

=Did you find me?=  

"Yes. Ha Eun-sung, right?"  

The ghosts face contorted for a moment. Well you must have asked other ghosts.'  

This was because it was not common to see a ghost wearing a penguin outfit and a sword sticking around his neck. "If it's okay with you, can we talk for a while in a quiet place?"  

For new ghosts, there is a point that seniors emphasize countless times. A living person' should not be followed recklessly.

There were two methods of inflicting pain and oppression on demons. Using magic that utilized the so-called exorcism realm," which utilized the interference wave of the spirit body, or activating the ultimate spell used only when old dragons fight each other  

Of course, the favorite was the former, and the wizard who could cast such a spell was the object of fear to the demons. Ha Eun-seong heard an urban ghost story about a ghost who was called and followed without knowing but was trapped in an exorcism camp and suffered as a mormot for the rest of his life.  

For the dead who were not protected by law, the future was literally worse than death. Nevertheless

= Yes, lets go.=  

Ha Eun-seong followed her for two reasons. the first last week in their newly discovered characteristics.  

I don't know why because it doesn't work for me anyway.'  

Last week, while hundreds of ghosts were all blown away by the shock wave, Ha Eun-seong was fine. He found the phenomenon strange, so he gathered up the courage to go to another building where the exorcism was installed.  

The result was the same.  

Uh? Again, dont you feel anything?  

Ha Eun-seong easily passed through the wall where other ghosts ran away in panic. There was no pain and there was no alarm. The anti-ghost defense system didnt even recognize him.  

=Ah, really.=

And thus was her second reason to follow her.  

= You are doing a really good job!=  

The shaman slipped out his business card so that others could not see it. After she followed her into her office with her wacky camouflage sign, he looked at her opponent with her envy.  

The woman laughed. "I'm glad you said that."  

= Uh huh, dont talk. When I was alive, I got to see a lot of Red Star' people!=  

That was the real identity written on the business card. She held out her cell phone and showed all kinds of video evidence, and Ha Eun-seong was no longer suspicious at all. To define the identity of Red Star in one word, it can be said to be a modern version of the bandit.  

Ha Eun-seong and his younger brothers, who were torn apart while alive, had an experience of being driven to the point of starving to death and barely survived with their help.  

At that time, I really died and came back to life!'  

Of course, there was no choice but to have a high affinity. They used various excuses to enjoy corporate tax discounts while robbing the warehouses of fresh products of large distribution companies that did not give a penny to society, extorting money by threatening to expose the ugly private lives of government officials and businessmen and looting money.  

It was clearly a crime to steal entire public defense facilities concentrated in the affluent clusters instead of the worst slums, and the media denounced them as a terrible terrorist group.  

However, the issue of how they distributed the profits of their crimes were rarely covered in the news.  

No matter how much you hide it, everyone knows!  

Red Star distributed food to the low-income class in a country where the social safety net had virtually collapsed and educated talented children who could not go to school. organized and took steps such as establishing rules and managing security in a neighborhood where the police did not patrol. However, among her old neighbors Ha Eun-seong, there were a few people who were reluctant to them.  

This was especially the case with the Orcs, because of the rumors that the Red Star was related to the Human Rights Solidarity.  

I don't believe in rumors like that.'  

This was because he was also a human living in the Orc community, who received help from Red Star during his lifetime.  

Why would the human supremacists spread food in the Orc Village?'  

Noticing her absurdity, the woman calmly introduced her organization. It was something she already knew for the most part, but he listened, feeling her heart pounding even though it wasnt there.  

"More than 50% of the world's wealth was monopolized by a handful of people who ruled over the country. We are the people who believe it should be redistributed in a fair and just way."  

Ha Eun-seong fell into her words as if possessed.  

"Many people are misunderstood, but we are not idealistic anarchists. They believe in reforming the country instead of destroying it."  

=      Thats right!=  

"Yes, this country has already lost its function as a state. After that, it was eaten by a small number of capitalists who grabbed everything and shook everything with huge sums of money. Do you know who I am talking to?"  

After a brief silence, she said. "Our enemy. Demons that squeeze the common people. So, for example dragons."
