Move out? Move out! (2)

If it’s the Changam Neighbourhood in Incheon, that should be somewhere between Suan and Incheon Port.

Since the request for backup had come to us, this meant that we were closer to the scene of the incident.

Mong-Doo shook his head with a frown.

“This is crazy. Seeing as how the request came all the way here, it looks like they really sent everyone to the Incheon Port.”

“Let’s go! Oi, Mong-Doo! Grab the car keys!”

“Which of the teams are supposed to be on standby?”

The station burst into action..

This was the lair of the Joongmae Gang that I had been eyeing for so long.

But something was wrong. According to my memories, these bastards’ base was definitely not in Incheon.

“By any chance, do you know who discovered them?”

I asked Team Leader as we ran down the stairs.

As no one from our teams knew the answer, a detective from another department answered in their place.

“They’re saying that it’s Detective Wang who discovered them. Apparently he stepped on their trail while doing a background check on some junkies.”

It was Wong Ong-Gu?

As I froze on the spot, Black shouted at me.

“Newbie! Stop messing around and get in the car!”

Mong-Doo had a grip on the steering wheel.

Ahead of us, dozens of cars were already leaving.

With our sirens roaring like crazy, we started racing down the road.

While pulling on my stab-proof armor, I subtly brought up the topic.

“Detective Wang is really impressive. For him to have found the location so much faster than the investigative teams over in Incheon.”

“That’s for sure. I really don’t know what’s gotten into that guy.”

Team Leader’s response sounded indifferent.

“But speaking of Wang Ong-Gu. I heard that he was originally part of the Violent Crimes Task Force. Why did he switch over to the Narcotics Unit?”

“I don’t know either. We were assigned to the same team and immediately placed in charge of the Hae-Soo case. Then as soon as the case was over, the team was dissolved. He was transferred to the Narcotics Unit immediately afterwards.”

“…that’s quite unusual.”

It was a common thing for teams to be made and then split up again.

If there weren’t any teams available when a case broke out, then a team could be formed on the spot from whoever was available.

However it was unusual for such teams to split up after only solving a single case.

While pulling on his own stab-proof armour, Black also piped up.

He seemed to be having trouble getting his arms into the sleeves due to all the muscle he was packing.

“I don’t know that guy very well either. But he seems to be pulling his weight with the narcotics team. Even with that lifeless look he has.”

“Geez. Are you one to talk about appearances? Among all us police officers, you’ve got the fiercest expression.”

“Hyung-nim. Let’s get it straight. You can’t call this fierce, it’s manly.”

“Bullshit.”

While Team Leader and Black were quarreling, my handphone received a message.

The message was from Myeong Bo-Hoon.

[Those Joongmae Gang bastards are at the Love and Peace Hospital in Changam Neighbourhood, Incheon. The hospital’s been abandoned for a long time.]

While swallowing my anger, I sent a reply.

[Thanks, but you’re too late, you punk. We’re already on our way there.]

[How is that possible? I contacted you as soon as I heard from the Guma Gang.]

[I’m curious about that as well. In any case, you were late, so let’s treat the promise like it never happened.]

As soon as I sent this message, Myeong Bo-Hoon tried calling me.

After I ignored a few of his calls, he started bombarding me with texts.

Buzz-

[No way, Detective-nim! This isn’t fair. I should definitely have been the fastest to replace out. Those guys from the Guma Gang told me that they found out about this from a direct source.]

Buzz-

[Are you really heading to the right place? Fuck, this is such bullshit! Which bastard reported it before me, tell me their name!]

Ring- Ring- Ring-

“Newbie. What’s with this nasty spamming of messages?”

Black turned the conversation to my constantly ringing hand-phone.

Ring- Ring-

Then, as the final straw, my phone started ringing once more.

Without even checking who the caller was, I immediately started swearing.

“I’m busy you fucker, so just call me later. If you keep up this nagging, just wait and see how I deal with you.”

-…boss?

This perplexed voice belonged to Ho-Un.

After clearing my throat, I lowered my voice.

“Ahem. Sorry about that. It’s just that hyung is a bit busy right now.”

-It’s about the person you told me about, Wang Ong-Gu. The background check for that guy has come out, but should I send it to you later?

Looks like his exams were finally over.

If it was anything else, I’d have told him to send it to me by email, but under the current circumstances things were different.

“Try and explain it to me in brief.”

-Um. I guess I can give it a go. But the truth is, there’s really nothing special in it. If I had to pick out something, it might be the fact that he’s sent all three of his kids to study abroad? Aren’t police officers paid peanuts? However, including his wife, they’re all living in France. And from what I can tell his family and in-laws are all of common means.
