Dangerous Investigation Diary

Ep. 23 ° Puppet Suicide Case (6) _

[The whole story _ Han Ki-beom's perspective]

I was a member of what is commonly called a group of bullies. Because of my above-average looks, seniors approached me since my first year of high school, and I naturally became a member of a group of bullies. Of course, I didn't join because I desperately wanted to, but I studied a little and went about my school life without drinking or smoking at all.

Since the group was so large, there were bound to be some people who stuck together. I think it would be most accurate to say that I was in a group with one classmate and two juniors, but I will introduce you to them excluding one classmate who has nothing to do with this incident.

Two second-year juniors. One male and one female. The male junior is Jo Dong-wook, and the female junior is Yoo Na-ra. They were very polite and kind to me and the third-years who were in the same group. It was to the point where I wondered why they were called bullies.

But at some point, rumors about them started to circulate. To me, they were a bit strange rumors.

* Frequent use of profanity.

박규찬 [19]

"Have you heard that?"

한기범 [19]

"What are you talking about?"

박규찬 [19]

"Ah, why- the story about Jo Dong-wook and Yoo Na-ra."

한기범 [19]

"...What, they're having drinks with adults next week?"

박규찬 [19]

"Oh, that's not it, you idiot - you really don't know?"

한기범 [19]

"I don't know. How would I know?"

박규찬 [19]

"You're going too far, lol. You know that Yuna likes you."

한기범 [19]

"Fuck, are you my friend? Yuna really fucking pisses me off."

박규찬 [19]

"Ah, anyway-"

박규찬 [19]

"They're fucking a girl the same age as them."

한기범 [19]

"What? Why."

박규찬 [19]

"I don't know. Maybe they don't like it again."

한기범 [19]

"What are they going to do if they get caught?"

박규찬 [19]

"This kid doesn't know a lot."

박규찬 [19]

"They're really connected. School or something, high-ranking people?"

박규찬 [19]

"Anyway, there are kids there."

박규찬 [19]

"Because I have a place to trust, I go around telling people about my drinking."

박규찬 [19]

"Then what if we all get screwed?"

한기범 [19]

"Okay... you say something."

박규찬 [19]

"Yuna will only listen to you, right? LOL"

한기범 [19]

"개새끼야 진짜, 닥쳐라."

I didn't think much of it until then. The fact that Yuna liked me was just too much of a shit. At the time, I had a girlfriend, and Yuna knew that, but she still spread rumors that she liked me. Because of that, I broke up with my girlfriend.

So it didn't really hit me that hard that someone was being bullied by them. Then, after about two weeks, one day.

I saw Jo Dong-wook and Yoo Na-ra on my way home from school with my classmate, Gyu-chan. They had a girl in front of them and they were walking behind her and they were hitting her. They were hitting her on the head and telling her to hurry up, or kicking her in the leg... That kind of thing.

Only then did I remember what Park Gyu-chan had said. Jo Dong-wook and Yoo Na-ra had been looking for a girl recently. Park Gyu-chan saw that and spoke to them naturally, but I couldn't. That girl fell down because of their kick.

박규찬 [19]

"Hi~"

조동욱 [18]

"Hey, bro!"

박규찬 [19]

"Long time no see, everyone-"

유나라 [18]

"Hello, oppa~"

유나라 [18]

"Oh, Kibum oppa is here too?"

조동욱 [18]

"Brother! It's been a while-"

한기범 [19]

"...Uh, yeah."

박규찬 [19]

"But, who is this?"

유나라 [18]

"Ah~ I have one. We're really close friends ㅋㅋㅋ"

조동욱 [18]

"Hey, why don't you get up quickly and say hello?"

The child who struggled to get up was in terrible condition. Her hair was so messy that it covered parts of her face, her split lip was slightly visible through her hair, her knees were scraped from falling, and even on her uniform... You know the smell of water from a mop? It smelled like that. They probably sprayed it.

He was so mean, but he never cried. They were the kind of kids who would get angry and bully him more, but he didn't budge. Rather, he seemed to show his venom. Even though he was bullying him like this, there wasn't a single kid in his class who helped him...

박규찬 [19]

"Hey hey, are you okay-"

박규찬 [19]

"You guys, do whatever you want lol. If you do that, we'll all be screwed."

유나라 [18]

"You know everything, oppa, so why are you doing that~"

박규찬 [19]

"Wow, are you a loser? Lol"

박규찬 [19]

"Hey, Kibum. Aren't these guys really funny?"

한기범 [19]

"...well."

That situation was incredibly uncomfortable. That kid kept catching my eye, and Park Gyu-chan didn't seem to care at all about the situation, which was creepy.

주선영 [18]

".....Hey guys. I have to go to school."

조동욱 [18]

"Ah~ What the heck? School?"

유나라 [18]

"This girl is funny lol"

조동욱 [18]

"If you were going to do it, you should have cleaned it for me."

조동욱 [18]

"Then it would have gone smoothly, right?"

I was mentally pressuring him by tapping his head with my fingers. He still didn't nod, but I was so worried. That's why I couldn't easily leave that unpleasant situation.

주선영 [18]

"...Since we're in different classes, we'll get caught right away..."

조동욱 [18]

"Now you're even talking back like crazy~"

조동욱 [18]

"You've grown so much, Seonyeong. You're so amazing-"

한기범 [19]

"...Hey, Park Gyu-chan. Didn't you say you were meeting a friend from the neighborhood next door?"

한기범 [19]

"It's already 5 o'clock."

박규찬 [19]

"Huh? Crazy. I have to go."

박규찬 [19]

"You guys, do your best and go in-"

박규찬 [19]

"We go first."

유나라 [18]

"Please go in carefully~"

I barely escaped that situation, but what I saw that day was only a part of their bullying. When I heard about what had happened through my friends, I felt certain. I had been living with demons all this time.

One day, Yuna called me up to the rooftop. The rooftop door was usually closed, but for some reason it was open that day, so she wanted me to come and look. I thought she might confess something, so I went up to the rooftop while thinking of a rejection line, but...

유나라 [18]

"Brother, are you here?"

It was a sight of Jo Dong-wook and Yoo Na-ra smoking cigarettes on the rooftop, surrounding the girl. She was kneeling on the concrete floor of the rooftop. I was so flustered, but my feet didn't move.

조동욱 [18]

"Hey, wake up."

주선영 [18]

"......"

유나라 [18]

"We're tired of bothering you now."

유나라 [18]

"You're going to find another girl, but you're having fun? There's something like that."

조동욱 [18]

"Hahaha, shit. This is so funny."

유나라 [18]

"That's why... I said that because I thought it would keep bothering you if you kept lingering in front of me."

주선영 [18]

"...so?"

유나라 [18]

"If you fall down here, I won't bother you."

It was an absurd suggestion. It was like telling them to die, and even if they didn't die, they could become a vegetable. When would they beat them like that? Now... I feel sorry for that kid. At that time, I was like an idiot and couldn't say anything to them. I just watched from behind.

주선영 [18]

"...what?"

유나라 [18]

"Oh, I told you to give it a try?"

조동욱 [18]

"Wow lol, yeah~ Yuna Ra said she'll look after it~"

주선영 [18]

"...What if you don't like it?"

유나라 [18]

"Huh, what?"

주선영 [18]

"I don't want to. If I fall, I might die."

조동욱 [18]

"What is this kid talking about now?"

As Jo Dong-wook said that, he grabbed the kid who was kneeling by the collar and punched him in the face. Not only that, he even stepped on him. The kid who seemed used to it, Jo Dong-wook who hit him for such a trivial thing, and Yoo Na-ra who laughed at it... It was bizarre.

한기범 [19]

"...Hey, take it easy."

Only then did I have the courage to say something and stop it, but by then it was already too late.

조동욱 [18]

"Oh, senior. You go down first."

조동욱 [18]

"We will also follow you and go down."

Jo Dong-wook kicked me out of the rooftop, and I had no choice but to leave without saying a word. That was the only word he said to stop me.

So I pretended to go out without closing the rooftop door completely, and then I took a video through the crack in the door just in case something happened. Since it was a rooftop, I thought something could really happen.

유나라 [18]

"Hey. Doesn't that sound like talk?"

조동욱 [18]

"ㅋㅋㅋ So, fuck.

유나라 [18]

"Hey, wake up."

Yuna roughly grabbed the child's wrist and forcibly lifted him up. When he got up, Yuna pushed him to the rooftop railing. The child panicked and grabbed the rooftop railing with his hand, and Jo Dong-wook, who was watching from behind, approached him with an interested smile.

조동욱 [18]

"Yuna, is this kid crazy? LOL"

유나라 [18]

"If you don't want to fall, try to hold on."

조동욱 [18]

"Oh, okay~ Hang in there."

The two of them were yelling at the kid holding onto the railing to hold on, and Jo Dong-wook started hitting him again. The kid's hands started to lose strength, and Jo Dong-wook pushed his shoulders with both hands.

The kid just fell backwards.

한기범 [19]

"The day after the incident, it was funny how I found out that kid's name..."

한기범 [19]

"They silenced the kids."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"which?"

한기범 [19]

"He told me not to tell anyone about the bullying when the police came to investigate."

한기범 [19]

"So the kids, since they are the children of high-ranking people... they would have just hidden it straight away."

하여주 [28]

"Then, what spoke to us that day..."

한기범 [19]

"...That's right. That's what I was going to say then."

한기범 [19]

"But I was scared."

한기범 [19]

"I thought the police would take care of it, so I hid like a coward again."

한기범 [19]

"But today, I heard that the case was closed as a suicide."

한기범 [19]

"Funny enough, I was so scared that I kept my mouth shut."

한기범 [19]

“I don’t know where the courage came from, but my body just jumped out of the house on its own.”

한기범 [19]

"That's probably the last bit of guilt he has left."

한기범 [19]

"I'm the only witness, I'm sorry I'm late."

한기범 [19]

"It's late, but I'll tell you now...

한기범 [19]

"This is the video taken at that time."

한기범 [19]

"Please make sure they get punished."

한기범 [19]

"I hope Seonyeong is at peace in heaven."

The small USB that Ki-beom held out had the phrase, "Eradicate school violence! A school where everyone is happy, Imjeon High School!" written on it. It was really contradictory. Police Chief Kim looked at Ki-beom quietly and then patted his head and said.

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"Seonyoung will be grateful to you."

The long investigation came to an end with Ki-beom bursting into tears at those words.

Another thing we learned was that Joo Seon-yeong's homeroom teacher also knew that school violence was occurring, but he just stood by and watched. In fact, he even encouraged Joo Seon-yeong to get along with the perpetrators, so we judged that to be secondary harm and placed her under arrest.

After the one-week closure of Imjeon High School, we also went to Imjeon High School. It was a class period, but it was obvious that the two perpetrators would not be in the classroom. Oh, except for the 3rd Violent Crimes Unit. The reason... you'll find out later.

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Officer Min and Officer Park. You go to the principal's office and arrest Park Ha-yool."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"all right."

전정국 [27] image

전정국 [27]

"Officer Park, just one pair of handcuffs."

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Here. I'll be back-"

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"I wonder where our friends are~"

Not long after I started looking, they were found on a shaded bench in the corner of the playground. I didn't know their faces, but I was sure it was them. One man and one woman in plain clothes. When I saw them only from the back in the evidence video, their shoes and hairstyles were the same.

And we came with someone else instead of the powerful 3 teams.

It was Ki-beom who had the most to say to these two.

유나라 [18]

"What? Who are you?"

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"Hello~"

유나라 [18]

"Oh... but you're kind of handsome."

조동욱 [18]

"What is it? Kibum hyung?"

한기범 [19]

"...It's been a while."

조동욱 [18]

"Why is that model student here during class?"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Shall we talk about that story later?"

유나라 [18]

"Wow, face attack is no joke. How old are you?"

They are praising each other's faces in front of the police officers in their uniforms, as if their future is already uncertain and they are destined to be arrested soon. Yuna-ra also looked around at her seniors, leaving Ki-beom, whom she liked so much, in front of her.

한기범 [19]

"...Are you guys?"

조동욱 [18]

"Huh? What..."

한기범 [19]

"The one who killed Seonyeong. Was it you?"

유나라 [18]

"Huh... Oppa. What are you talking about?"

한기범 [19]

"I saw it all that day, and I even filmed it all."

한기범 [19]

"I handed it over to the police officers behind me as evidence."

한기범 [19]

"I came here to advise you to live your life right."

조동욱 [18]

"ㅋㅋㅋ Wow... Hyung, did you live so cleanly?"

조동욱 [18]

"Do you feel safe with the police swarming here?"

조동욱 [18]

"When he was being chased, you couldn't say anything, hyung~"

조동욱 [18]

"Do you know that it's really creepy that the front and back are completely different? Lol?"

한기범 [19]

"So you don't feel guilty about killing him?"

유나라 [18]

"Oppa haha, do you think you would listen to it?"

유나라 [18]

"He treats me really rudely first, and when I ask to borrow something, he ignores me and refuses to lend it to me."

유나라 [18]

"She's a characterless bitch, and if you let her out into society, she'd just be a nuisance."

정호석 [30] image

정호석 [30]

"These are the words..."

조동욱 [18]

"Ah, there are police officers behind you~"

조동욱 [18]

"Don't do this to two childish students~"

조동욱 [18]

"I won't be able to get in anyways lol"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"You're saying this with a lot of knowledge, right?"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"When you turn 18, you're classified as juvenile delinquents."

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"You could even be subject to criminal punishment."

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"I'm not that smart law-abiding boy."

유나라 [18]

"Really lol, I told you he was the one who did something wrong first? And do you know whose sons and daughters we are?"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"I know-"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"But, your parents must also kneel before the law."

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"They say that even people like you are their children and get kicked out of the court."

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"And he was the one who did it first. Did he hit you guys or something?"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"There is no charge against him-"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"But you didn't just order suicide, you ended up pushing him off the roof..."

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"You guys, I'll make sure you're charged with murder."

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Young people don't know how fearful the law is."

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"I'm a police officer. Arrest me."

조동욱 [18]

"madam..."

조동욱 [18]

"Hey, jump out."

전정국 [27] image

전정국 [27]

"Where."

Jo Dong-wook and Yu Na-ra tried to escape from the school to avoid us, and Officer Jeon blocked them with his body. Inspector Kim later said that he had placed Officer Jeon here in preparation for such a situation. Thanks to that, the two were arrested without incident.

Perhaps, as per Sergeant Kim's request and in keeping with the name of the case of the Violent 1st Team, the court will evaluate their crimes more severely. It is the right thing to do.

When Ki-beom saw the two assailants being dragged away with their wrists handcuffed, he sank to the ground, as if his legs had lost their strength. I patted Ki-beom's shoulder as he cried, burying his face in my arms.

Meanwhile, Police Officer Min and Police Officer Park succeeded in entering the office of Imjeon High School. Ms. Joo Seon-yeong's homeroom teacher, Ms. Park Ha-yool, knew that the perpetrators were children of high-ranking officials at the school and threw out Ms. Joo Seon-yeong when she asked for help, causing secondary harm.

Students may be covered up by saying that they are naive, but when they go out into society and become adults and become proper high school teachers, they cannot be embraced by any words, so if they had known about the school violence, they should have provided a strong fence for Joo Seon-yeong.

Even at school, when they heard that the teachers were popular for being good to their students and doing their work neatly at a young age, Detective Min and Detective Park were furious and headed to the second-year teachers' office without hesitation.

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Hey, is Mr. Park Ha-yul here?"

박하율 [34]

"It's... who..."

Police officers Min and Park took out their police IDs and the arrest warrants they had received from the inside pockets of their uniforms.

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"I'm from the BU Police Station's Violent Crimes Unit 1."

"Strong Team 1?! Isn't it incredibly famous?"

"Why are those people here..."

Officer Min, who was annoyed by the teachers' chattering, spoke in a voice that could drown out all the other noises, a voice that could resonate not only in this teachers' office but throughout the entire school.

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"You are being arrested on emergency grounds on charges of secondary assault on Ms. Joo Seon-yeong."

At those words, Park Ha-yool's face turned into confusion, and the inside of the teachers' office fell into chaos. At that moment, the bell signaling the end of class rang throughout the school.

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Oh my, this is~"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"I hope you become a teacher that your students can be proud of~"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"My high school teacher got arrested by the police and got out..."

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Isn't this the students' eternal comfort?"

박하율 [34]

"What are you guys...? You're not letting this go?!"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"That's right... Who told you to turn a blind eye to school violence?"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Even if we assume that children have their own immature aspects,"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

“Shouldn’t someone of his age be like this?”

박하율 [34]

"He must have done something wrong for the kids to bully him! Why am I the secondary victim...!"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Look at this-"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Is there a reason for violence?"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"Why would a kid with good grades and a good reputation among his friends get bullied at school?"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"In their eyes, a normal kid must have looked unlucky. What would those kids who go around drinking know?"

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"During my school days, I spent half of my day at school."

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"You ruined his day."

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"I thought I got some money or something, but now I see that the original accident was just shit."

박지민 [29] image

박지민 [29]

"If you don't want to be bullied any more, come out quietly."

In this way, Park Ha-yool had no choice but to show herself in handcuffs to the teachers in the teachers' office and everyone else in sight from the hallway in front of the teachers' office to the school's main gate, all the while hearing the commotion and the sound of camera shutters.

In this way, all the perpetrators were arrested. This does not mean that Seon-yeong's pain will disappear or that her death will be forgotten, but if Seon-yeong can close her eyes in peace knowing that there were students and police officers who came forward to reveal the truth about her death, then that is enough for us to console ourselves.

COOKIE 🍪 01 _ [Detective Min and Detective Kim]

While Superintendent Kim was comforting Superintendent Kim, who was being scolded by Superintendent Min, on the rooftop, Superintendent Kim and Superintendent Kim, who had come down from the rooftop, ran into Superintendent Min in the hallway. The three of them stopped in the middle of the hallway, and Superintendent Kim left, telling them to talk alone.

So, only Officer Min and Officer Kim came back up to the rooftop. Officer Min smelled strongly of a cigarette, as if he had just smoked it, and for a long time, no words were exchanged between the two. Surprisingly, it was Officer Min who spoke first.

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"...sorry."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"yes...?"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"I'm sorry I pushed you when it would have been the best choice for you facing the victim's mother."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"I didn't know because I didn't see Bae Joo-yeon's expression directly, but you did..."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"I don't think you considered your position, or the position of the victim's parents."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"As a senior, I was very embarrassed."

Hearing the apology and serious words from Inspector Min for the first time, Inspector Kim held back his tears and recalled Inspector Kim's words.

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

'Yes. Just like now, go and tell Detective Min about this.'

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

'You know that Detective Min cares about you.'

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

'Detective Min is also a soft-spoken person. So, you should definitely go and tell him.'

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"...No. I'm more sorry."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"An unwanted joint investigation with Team 3, a case that isn't even being solved..."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"You must have been sensitive to many things, but you were surprised to see someone with some experience like me act so suddenly..."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"I thought that since Ms. Bae Joo-yeon was in a very dangerous situation, I had to reassure her first."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"I'm the one who doesn't think about Detective Min's position and is just feeling upset like a child, and it's not like I don't know Detective Min's feelings..."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"I'm sorry. I... I'm sorry."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"...thank you."

As he spoke, the eyes of Detective Min were moist. They sparkled in the sunlight. Detective Kim, who was flustered because Detective Min never cried, patted Detective Min’s back.

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"Don't cry..."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"...don't cry."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"From now on, I too... will be careful."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Yeah... me too."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"You go in first. I'll come in later."

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"Yes... you have to come in quickly!"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Yeah haha"

Watching the back of Chief Kim as he ran out of the rooftop with excited steps, perhaps excited by the thought of reconciliation, Chief Min recalled the first time he had seen Chief Kim. It was a first impression that made him laugh for no reason, so Chief Min burst out laughing to himself.

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Kim Taehyung has grown a lot too..."

COOKIE 🍪 02 _ [3 Powerful Teams, and Vacation!]

After the conclusion was reached after Ki-beom's statement, we decided that we would go to Imjeon High School once the one-week suspension was lifted and arrest the perpetrators and Park Ha-yul, so we took a one-week vacation. It was no different from a reward vacation that was forced upon us by our superiors. The reason for the vacation was as follows.

After sending Ki-beom out of the office and asking Officer Ha to see him off, the Violent Crimes Unit 1, excluding Officer Ha, had only one goal. To catch the guy who messed with their precious youngest.

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Now tell me. What kind of guy is he?"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Be patient, you know that too."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Hey, then it's not fun~"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Who could it be?"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Our detective Choi must be the one who hasn't fixed his bad habits."

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"...What are you talking about? It's not me?"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"Who else would do that here besides you?"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"I'm not surprised. Just educate the kids under you well-"

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"It's obvious that they were trained by beating them."

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"Okay~"

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"Officer Shin Da-hee was also trained that way."

김남준 [30] image

"What?"

최종호 [33]

"I guess you guys need to tease your youngest a bit?"

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"The police officer is full of courage and talks back to the inspector."

최종호 [33]

"She's worse than Shin Da-hee."

"So it wasn't wrong to hit the kid?"

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"There is something wrong~"

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"But, Officer Park. Are you also secretly talking?"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"...Why are you doing that?"

송민기 [30] image

송민기 [30]

"You don't have any evidence anyway, right?"

정호석 [30] image

정호석 [30]

"What are you?"

송민기 [30] image

송민기 [30]

“There is no evidence, so you can’t even punish him.”

송민기 [30] image

송민기 [30]

"What's the use of growling like this-"

손나은 [29]

"Oh~ Officer Song, Lime Nice just now."

Those guys, if only there was evidence, we could make sure they never set foot in this place again.

"Seniors, I'm here."

"Oh, yeah... who's behind you?"

김남준 [30] image

김남준 [30]

"...uh?"

치안총감 [51]

"It's been a while, everyone-"

김태형 [29] image

김태형 [29]

"Tch, Chief of Police...?!"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Chief Inspector... What are you doing here..."

치안총감 [51]

"Well, I just stopped by on my way there."

치안총감 [51]

"The joint investigation case here is hot in the West these days-"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Oh, yes..."

민윤기 [31] image

민윤기 [31]

"With our youngest, why..."

치안총감 [51]

"Huh? Oh, our officer Ha said something really horrible."

전정국 [27] image

전정국 [27]

"Our officer Ha...?"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Yes?! Our officer Ha, what happened..."

치안총감 [51]

"It wasn't an accident - I played you a recording."

At that moment, a recording came out of Officer Ha's cell phone. The recording clearly recorded the argument between Officer Choi and Officer Ha, as well as the sounds of violence.

하여주 [28]

"I... was trying to live quietly, but what is this..."

하여주 [28]

"My uncle also had his lid open-"

정호석 [30] image

정호석 [30]

"Sir...? Wait..."

At that moment, the house of Officer Ha that he had seen before flashed through Sergeant Jeong's mind. The house that he had seen when he had come to pick up Officer Ha to ask him to have a drink. The house that he had thought lightly and passed over, saying that he had seen the Chief of Police enter here...

하여주 [28]

"Well... I have some support."

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"Wait... what is this..."

치안총감 [51]

"Yoon Do-woon caused a ruckus to Do-hyeon."

치안총감 [51]

"And, I've been looking after you guys from Team 3 of Powerful Forces before..."

치안총감 [51]

"It's bad to stir up trouble like this-"

최종호 [33] image

최종호 [33]

"I, Chief of Police. That's...!"

치안총감 [51]

"I will slowly bring down the punishment on you."

치안총감 [51]

"Let's take a look at them one by one, starting from the old days."

손나은 [29] image

손나은 [29]

"Chief Inspector General...!"

치안총감 [51]

"I guess I'll be going now."

치안총감 [51]

"Sergeant Ha, next time let's meet with Do-woon and Do-hyun-"

하여주 [28]

"Okay! Be careful on your way in~"

치안총감 [51]

"Oh, and-"

치안총감 [51]

"Team 1 Gangryong should go on a short trip somewhere far away during the break from Imjeon High School."

치안총감 [51]

"It's a mandatory vacation, so make sure to go~"

하여주 [28]

"Oh, thank you-!"

치안총감 [51]

"See you next time, Team 1 Strong-"

김석진 [32] image

김석진 [32]

"Yes, yes...! Go in carefully..."

The office door closed, and everyone, including the 3rd and 1st Violent Crimes Units, who were about to be disciplined, were dumbfounded. Our youngest... is talking to... who right now...

정호석 [30] image

정호석 [30]

"Sergeant Ha... What is this..."

하여주 [28]

"Hey, let's talk about that later!"

하여주 [28]

"First, let's decide where to go on vacation!"

The seniors of Violent Crimes Unit 1 were looking for a vacation spot while holding their foreheads at the sight of the always cheerful Ha Sun-kyung, while the members of Violent Crimes Unit 3 were pulling out their hair. They must have been afraid of how much punishment would be given to them. It makes sense, since they didn't expect the Chief of Police to suddenly get involved.

And there is an anecdote that when Officer Ha was writing the investigation log, he changed the name of the case from 'High School Girl Suicide Case' to 'Puppet Suicide Case' because it didn't involve actual suicide, and everyone in the Violent Crimes Unit 1 praised it so much that they were all busy talking about it, saying it was a stroke of genius.

Our joint investigation, which had many mishaps due to different dreams, has come to an end. And during the vacation we were given after a long time, Team 1 of the Violent Crimes Unit had a lot to talk about.

Investigation Journal: A metaphorical term for a case manuscript written by the author before solving the case into episodes.

Since this is an unprecedented amount of content, the investigation log is also long, so for the first time in four times, I'm uploading it...😨 This case wasn't that difficult, but because it's so long, I was at a loss at the beginning while writing the investigation log, wondering how I would solve it, but it ended so well!

In 'Puppet Suicide Case 🗣', the joint investigation with Team 3, the first impressions of the members of Team 1 who were specifically mentioned in this case, Team 1's vacation, and finally, Officer Ha's connections are revealed to the seniors 🤭

Looking at it this way, a lot has been added from the idea my friend gave me in the beginning, 'I committed suicide, but it turns out someone made me commit suicide', but since it's a serious subject matter, I thought it couldn't be solved without this work, so I put a lot of effort into it, and I'm quite satisfied 😽

In the next episode, along with the vacation of the Violent Crimes Team 1, the past of the Violent Crimes Team 1 and Police Officer Shin Da-hee, which was promised in Episode 14, will be revealed! 😎

For the time being, the Strong 1st Team will be on vacation for a week, so I can't give you a preview of the case! However, the first impressions of the team members mentioned in this 'Puppet Suicide Case' will be slowly revealed one by one! 🫠 Now that we've covered Officer Ha's past, let's look at the seniors' pasts...✨️

Thank you for running with me on this case! I, Ajijak, will work hard to come back with a more solid story and case 🧐🌟 Thank you for reading the long text! See you in the next episode!!! Bye 🙌❤️‍🔥
