Se-ah’s words that she is being arrested at the police station raises suspicions.

“Police office? What are you going to do there?

[That’s right! What kind of villains teleported to our neighborhood… … I was the only one who didn’t have an alibi at the time… … Whoa! They say there is evidence… … .]

Wait, villains teleport?

“Seah. Where do you live now?”

[yes? uh, uh… … Bu, Bucheon.]

Slowly, the puzzle was being put together.

“How long will the police guess you committed the crime?”

[I said four days ago! But I was at home then! really… … .]

“Believe.”

[yes?]

“Don’t worry too much, I will trust you absolutely.”

Because it seemed like I was also involved in this matter.

“Then tell me where the police station is. Go right away.”

[Ah, yes, yes! here… … It’s the National Police Agency for Awakened in Southern Gyeonggi-do!]

Judging from the map, it was a short distance to reach by helicopter.

“Go in ten minutes. From now on, if the police say anything, keep your mouth shut saying that you exercise your right to remain silent.”

[yes… … !]

So, I hung up the phone and dialed another number to resolve the situation.

A legal counsel to the organization and one of the top powers in Callione who specializes in this area.

“Consiglière? This is Eugene.”

Callione’s Consiglieri.

It was time to ask him for help.

* * *

Gyeonggi-do Southern Awakened National Police Agency.

As the name suggests, it is an organization that has independent investigative authority on the Awakened Issues occurring in the southern region of Gyeonggi-do.

However, it is also a government institution of the Republic of Korea and an institution operating under the law.

After all, they were also organizations that had to work within the framework of the law… … As Seah said, there was something uncomfortable about it.

“I have evidence and witnesses… … I was working on it from the beginning.”

As I expected, the fact that Se-Ah was caught has something to do with the fact that the villains caught in Gunsan this time smuggled into Korea.

And, as I expected, there was only one person who could smuggle them into Korea.

Sinchulgwi Mall (獨也靑靑).

A member of the Villains Alliance, which he killed with Kwak Chun-sik a while ago, and the one who smuggled the villains into Korea.

However, for some reason, it was Seah, not the guy, who was designated as the suspect.

It seems that there are other groups who are openly trying to drive her to be the culprit.

If so, there’s a high probability that those guys have something to do with the Alliance of Villains.

There was a reason to do everything in your power to rescue Se-ah and destroy them.

“young master. Im here.”

Han Seo-joon stopped the car and said.

“The others?”

“It is said to be arriving soon.”

“i get it. Let me go in first.”

One place where Se-ah is being held is the [Awakened Smuggling Division].

As soon as I ran to there and opened the door, the man in front of the door jumped up from his seat and asked me.

“How did you get here?”

Ignoring him and looking around, I quickly check where Se-ah is.

“Are you really not talking? If you’re not the culprit, say something. Yes?”

“… … .”

“Oh my gosh, this is the world. It’s not enough that a student at the Seoul Hero Academy helped smuggle immigration, and now it’s even denying the facts of the crime? It’s funny, really.”

──I found it.

I ran right there, and put my hand on Se-ah’s shoulder, who was trembling and keeping her mouth shut as I said.

“Calm down. Because I came.”

“Yu, Mr. Eugene… … !”

And looking at me like that, he looks at me like he doesn’t like the guy who looks like a detective.

“Who are you?”

“guardian.”

After revealing my identity proudly, I sat on the empty chair next to Se-ah and looked at him.

“belong.”

“Yes?”

“You belong and ask for your name. I think he brought the kid at home handcuffed, but there shouldn’t be an arrest warrant.”

As I said that, I glanced at Seah’s wrist.

A silver bracelet worn on Seah’s wrists.

It was definitely the same ‘anti-awakening suppressor’ that I received from Kwak Chun-sik.

“what? An arrest warrant? haha! Don’t you know that we can arrest space wizards who are afraid of escaping without a warrant?”

“That’s a law that only applies to Awakened Heroes, not to Academy students.”

“what? You replace that——”

Saying that, I grabbed Se-ah’s wrist and lifted it up.

“──Let’s get this out of the way first.”

The guy who hears my words and shakes his body.

But soon, being aware of the attention of the detectives around me, I smile and look at a piece of paper on the desk towards me.

“Here is an arrest warrant. Are you okay?”

Check his paper.

It’s definitely an arrest warrant. The guy was elated, though.

‘This has made me certain.’

On the contrary, thanks to this, I became more confident about how the picture was drawn.

“An arrest warrant was issued for an academy student with a certain identity and a first-time offender with a family, so there is little risk of escaping? … … Hey, do you see someone on top of you?”

I mumble and bang! The guy who hits his desk so that the sound reverberates.

The iron desk was dented by the man’s palm.

“If you want to make such baseless reasoning, go out now. We do it the law.”

“Are you doing it according to the law? this?”

He clenched his fists until he heard a crackling sound at my words.

“Look. Do you know what the current situation is? The villains who fled from Niflheim smuggled into Bucheon. By space-based talents! At that time, all the space wizards in Bucheon had alibi, but only that girl was missing. Do you not understand even if I say this?”

Spatial wizards are subjects that need to be managed that much.

Because there was a risk that it could be used for smuggling as well as smuggling if you wanted to.

Above all else, if you run away with that ability, there is virtually no way to catch it.

Typically, this is the case with the newcomer that I caught a while ago.

The guy’s fighting ability wasn’t that high. No, it’s okay to be weak.

But, didn’t Korea make a lot of noise just being a space wizard?

“You know that’s all? The magic was empty when we went to get him. I was almost on the verge of exhaustion. What on earth should a space wizard do to use his magical power to the point of exhaustion? did you get an answer? yes?”

So the guy is sure.

All the space wizards registered at the time had a schedule, and only Seah among them had no alibi.

At the time of his arrest, his magical power was empty.

It was a really funny story.

“Academy freshman smuggled villains from outside? You seem to really think that makes sense.”

“… … What?”

“I don’t have enough magical power to teleport from my house to the academy, so I always come to the academy earlier than anyone else, but that kid smuggled villains into the country… … under! The ghosts sing. If a freshman at the academy has that level of ability, guilds around the world will target her.”

“Most smuggling takes place on the coast. Even if she were, she would be able to move from the coast to the inland.”

“Is there any evidence?”

In the end, there was only one thing they insisted on.

At that time, Se-ah was the only one who did not have an alibi.

But it’s just a heart attack.

“Arrest without convincing evidence, put on restraints, plus threats and induction interrogations. It really is a great institution.”

– Clap clap clap.

As I clapped and scoffed at his face, his hands start to tremble.

However, as his identity is his identity, he seems to be controlling his anger, so he takes a deep breath and opens his mouth to me and Se-ah.

“evidence? there’s proof But even if you are a guardian, you cannot show evidence recklessly. This case is under investigation by our ‘Awakened Police Agency’ after receiving an arrest warrant. But are you obstructing the investigation like this? Do you know that what you are doing now is also an action that can be arrested?”

Now, I laugh out loud at the guy who even threatens me directly.

“under! It’s a threat to this place, isn’t it? good, very good Intimidation is a weapon that can be applied very effectively to those who are weaker than themselves.”

“… … What?”

If you come out like that, I too have no choice but to move as I planned.

“I thought I would hire a lawyer because they asked me to make one phone call, but I brought in a strange friend. Are you really not planning on hiring a lawyer? Do you know that if you do not hire an attorney, you will be automatically assigned a public attorney?”

Still, he starts talking about the right to hire a lawyer, saying that he will follow the law.

“yes? Rice, are you a lawyer? But the lawyer… … .”

“Oh, if that’s the case, don’t worry. because I was appointed lawyer.”

“… … yes?”

“… … What?”

Two people looking at me at the same time when I said that I had already hired a lawyer.

“I, you hired my lawyer?”

“Have you hired a lawyer? you?”

Why are you so surprised?

“It’s not natural. Because he is a member of our precious Familia and my friend.”

“… … friend.”

The detective who was watching the scene in front of him snorts.

“Hey, what a great lawyer you hired. Now that you have all the evidence and witnesses, do you think hiring a lawyer will make any difference? Sweethearts.”

“Oh, it’s different.”

When I answered in a confident voice, he frowned as if he had heard something.

“What?”

“Didn’t you just say it with your mouth, you’re doing it the right way?”

seems natural.

I declared

“So we’ll treat you your way, the law.”

The door to the investigation room burst open at the same time as my declaration.

Soon, the men in black suits rushed into the investigation room and started to stand behind me, and a middle-aged man who seemed to be the representative took out a piece of paper that looked like his business card and handed it to the detective.

“Representative of the lawyers of Dike, a law firm. This is Han Kwang-gi. In the future, our lawyers will be in charge of defending Kim Se-ah, so you can talk to me in detail.”

“uh? I… … .”

“It turns out that an arrest warrant has been issued to Prosecutor Han Chang-wook, but the arrest warrant is still there. Do you know that if an arrest warrant is not received within 48 hours, we can no longer hold him back?”

“ah… … that is… … .”

“Then, until an arrest warrant is issued or 48 hours have elapsed, our lawyers will stand by the client’s side. Well, if you’re really uncomfortable, let’s finish today’s investigation and ask for attendance next time.”

Dike, one of the largest law firms in Korea.

The moment they announced that they would be with the client for two full days, whatever plans they had, it already meant nothing.

The reason they targeted Se-ah was probably because they didn’t even think that there was someone behind her.

“Come on, let’s talk on the phone for a second.”

“You can do that.”

A detective who has been away for a while. Seah was still looking at me with a face that she couldn’t understand what was going on.

“… … Why are you looking at me like that?”

“No, I have no idea what is going on right now. What is a law firm, what is a lawyer, and what is the status of this?”

… … Was it too sudden?

“You know that I live well, right?”

“yes.”

“I just asked the law firm that I usually take care of.”

“Ha, but money wouldn’t be a joke… … .”

“Probably the equipment in the club room is more expensive than the money I spent on this.”

“ah… … .”

This was a fact.

After a while, the detective came to Se-ah with a restless expression and bowed his head.

“For now, it’s okay to go back today… … If you show up on the date of the next attendance request form… … Thank you.”

“Ah, yes… … .”

He seems to have changed his mind when he heard the news that Dike’s lawyers were also on the way from above.

There may be a lot of things prepared over there, but you don’t need to worry about those things here.

Well then.

“Let’s go back.”

“… … yes?”

“Aren’t you going home?”

“Ah yes! Go!”

Kim Se-ah was targeted by a person belonging to the police or the prosecution.

Then what I did was simple.

Reverse sniper and drop it.

He knows he’s arrogant, but in front of a hunter with a shotgun, it makes him feel that he’s just a prey.

It is thoroughly trampled so as not to be touched again.

Because that’s Callione’s way.
