Daily Routine Chapter 5 Wu Jin Chul and Jin-Woo walked to the end of the school corridor. He stopped only when they had gone a sufficient distance from the classroom, where no one could overhear their conversation. Jin-Woo, silently following the detective, finally stopped too. Then he cast a quick glance toward the class. For some reason, the distance they moved away from him, as a student, seemed quite large. It is possible that Wu Jin Chol thought about this too. Apparently therefore, the first thing he did was apologize to Jin-Woo, who was still looking towards the class.

-I’m sorry that I pulled you like that in the middle of the lesson.

-It’s okay,

-Jin-Woo restrained his own words: “I still wanted to run away from there, because it’s so boring there.” He didn’t say so out of respect for the teacher, who was struggling to bring the material to a class full of children. Instead of saying anything, he simply looked up at Wu Jin Chol. The detective was young. Because Jin-Woo changed his physique to resemble the first year of high school, Wu Jin Chol was now a whole head taller than him, and his shoulders were much wider. “A guy who looks more impressive than any gangster really works as a detective.”

-Seeing the face of his friend after, it seemed, forever, on the face of Jin-Woo, a sharp smile flickered. Years have passed since he last saw the president of the association, Wu Jin Chol. No

-not even decades, if you add another time while he wandered in the space between the dimensions, Although Jin-Woo did not want to show anything openly, but he could not do anything with a treacherous face, on which a note of joy was read. “…?

”

-but Wu Jin Chul was instantly confused when he saw a smile on his student’s face. There were few people who would not be embarrassed after the policeman’s sudden visit. And even more so, a detective with such a formidable face. Moreover, did it make sense to say anything else when it was just about a high school student?

But this guy standing right in front of he really smiled. “This kid… He has something special.”

-Wu Jin Chul felt this immediately as soon as he entered that class

-this guy was different. Thanks to his work, he often encountered killers who killed a lot of people, or gangsters who kept backyard streets in black gloves. But he never met anyone with such a calm look, like this guy. “How can a student have such a look?

” He wondered. * glp Unbeknownst to himself, Wu Jin Chul swallowed dryly from all this tension that was in the air. Starting from the very moment he saw this guy, his heart was beating uncontrollably for an incomprehensible reason. To sort out the many questions that were spinning in his head, Wu Jin Chol took out his notebook and began to look there.

-You, by chance, are shadows… no, second. Ants…

-Wu Jin Chul peered at the contents of his notebook. But no matter what he did, he simply couldn’t make a meaningful sentence. So instead he took out a pen from his inner pockets. * shuh

-shuh While Jin Woo looked at it with interest, Wu Jin Chul quickly drew something on the notebook page and showed the resulting drawing.

-…

-Jin-Woo mentally praised the detective’s attempt,

-“And he is much more talented in art than I thought.” The fact that Wu Jin Chul just drew was an approximate image of Bera. Although it could not be called accurate, he correctly drew the head of an ant, human hands, legs, sharp claws, as well as ant wings on his back, and so on and so forth. Anyone who knew what Ber looks like would instantly recognize him in this drawing. Then Wu Jin Chul asked his question.

-Does something come to mind when you look at this drawing?

Jin-Woo glanced at the drawing. Then he looked up and saw a slightly flushed Wu Jin Chol. Even he should have realized how ridiculous it all looked. It was easy to guess that he was desperately trying to restore his memories of the events that happened to him, but which were erased. Even at the cost of such absurdities or something like that. And with all my despair…

-… Do you know what that is?

Asked Wu Jin Chul again. Before the notes of embarrassment clearly heard in the detective’s voice intensified, Jin-Woo quickly answered him.

-Yes. * tuduk Wu Jin Chol’s heart beat sharply in his chest.

-Q-do you know what that is?

-the detective’s voice became louder. But Jin Woo’s expression was absolutely calm, which contrasted sharply with Wu Jin Chol’s tense face.

-Yes. Wu Jin Chol’s gaze faltered. Finally. He finally found it. His breathing intensified, and his voice became more excited when he asked.

-What is that monster ant?

And who are you really?

Jin-Woo stepped back a step from the hot Wu Jin Chol. The latter realized that he had made a mistake and quickly calmed down.

-Ah, I was a little skidded. You see, I’ve been fighting this business for a very long time. Step by step

-he would gradually figure out what this student knows. Didn’t he have to go through many difficulties to find this clue?

So there was no need to rush. Wu Jin Chul was able to calm his quivering heart with these thoughts and said in a calmer voice.

-Okay. So do you know anything about the creature in this figure?

“Yes,” Jin-Woo answered shortly and nodded and made an “innocent” expression. “Isn’t that one of the monsters that appear in these series with special effects?

” ?

Children really like them. Like the Masked Rider?

“Ah…” Wu Jin Chul said disappointingly. He was instantly swept by a wave of hopelessness, as if he were watching the sand castle he built all over day, blows away by the first tidal wave. A short, but very upset sigh burst from his mouth. Since his expectations were very high, so was the disappointment that followed them. His hand holding the notebook naturally fell. He looked so tired, so exhausted that he could no longer hold the notebook. For a short moment he became angry with this student for that he unnecessarily leads him by the nose with his vague answers. But still, what exactly was his crime if he spoke only about what he knew?

Wu Jin Chul forced a smile.

-Thank you for your assistance.

-Is that all?

-Yes, I spoke with your teacher, so when you return and class, no no problems should arise, said Wu Jin Chul. He was about to remove his notebook, but then Jin-Woo quickly turned to him.

-This drawing with a monster, I can take it as a souvenir?

The detective looked at the animated expression on the student’s face, and smiled. He opened his notebook and looked a little at his sketch. Then he tore this page straight and handed it to Jin Woo.

-Please.

-Thank you. As if struggling with the strange feelings that gripped him as soon as the student said goodbye to him, Wu Jin Chul immediately turned around and quickly started to go down the stairs. “…”

-Jin-Woo stayed there and listened to the detective’s receding steps that echoed echoing on the stairs. B at the same time, a shadow stretched out imperceptibly from him and Ikrid quickly appeared from there.

-My lord.

-Mm?

-Why… why didn’t you tell the truth to this to man?

Ikrid retained memories of those times when he was still a man. And thanks to this, he knew better than others how sad and hard it was for someone to be forgotten by someone whom he cherished. And so he thought the appearance of detective Wu Jin Chol was probably the most ideal opportunity. Even if it were just one person. Wouldn’t it be good for his Lord to let someone know that he saved this world?

Ikrid could hear sadness in his voice. But Jin Woo shook his head. -You know, the ability to forget is supposed to be a gift from God to people. Even if it was an artificial effect after using the instrument of God. Nevertheless, Jin-Woo believed that he had no right to decide whose memories to erase and which to leave. Only God could do something like that. That’s why he decided in this way to let go of the former president of the association, Wu Jin Chol. “Are you sure about that, my lord?

”

-Ikrid did not relent.

-Yes,

-and then Jin-Woo sharply looked at his left hand. Here it is, proof of the powerful attack of the Dragon Emperor. Burn mark on this left hand, obtained from directly blocking the “Breath of Destruction”, could not be cured. Nothing could be done, no matter what he tried. And unpleasant memories that could not be forgotten were something like this scar. They looked like a wound that could not be cured. Even if that person wanted it, was there a need to force these painful memories back?

Now in people’s memory, living on this planet, there was not a trace of the pain and suffering that was inflicted by the hands of monsters and Lords. And therefore, Jin-Woo did not want the memories of that past to remain in the memory of the former president of the association, Wu Jin Chol.

-I understand, my lord,

-and Ikrid silently returned back to the shadows, as if accepting such an explanation. Jin Woo looked down the stairs once more. And then he turned around to return to class. When the change began, the seething interest of the children, of course, switched to Jin Woo. After all, seriously, when else would children be able to survive the situation, as in the series where the detective suddenly breaks into their class?

It was obvious that their unbridled interest was guaranteed to be riveted to the hero of this story. Even the girls who were interested in Jin Woo before, but could not say it out loud, hurried to him. And very soon a sufficient crowd gathered around his desk.

-What just happened?

-Hey, Jin Woo?

Why did Detective Nim come to school?

Jin Woo grinned softly in response to the warm interest of his classmates and took advantage of the excuse that he composed on the go.

-Well, this is my friend, and he just looked in to ask me something, that’s all.

-Class, that’s great.

-Do you know a real detective?

-I envy you, Jin Woo, do you know?

Jin Woo was having a hard time restraining his laughter, and the children’s interest turned to a somewhat unexpected moment. “Young Gil, why did your eyes so sparkle?

” And yet, thanks to the unexpected visit of the detective, there was a feeling that the invisible wall around Jin-Woo, which the children felt, had cracked a little. The girls took this opportunity to ask about things that they eagerly wanted to know.

-I heard from other boys that you have an incredible body?

-Really?

Are you an athlete, or something?

-Ahh!

I saw the day before Jeanne Woo was running on the sports field with the high school students from the team.

-Yeah, look at how broad his shoulders are. When the girls surrounded him from all sides, Jin-Woo I wondered how to make them quietly return to their places, but then… The four hooligans found that one student attracted all the attention, very unpleasant. And they decided to intervene in this matter.

-Hey, you. Aren’t you popular now?

Even the cop came in to see you and all that. As soon as the four appeared, all the guys quickly returned to their places, and the girls began to quietly leave. A guy named Nam Joon Sik, who was standing above all four, began to clap Jin-Woo on the shoulder. According to the one that literally just with curiosity was touched by high school students. The corners of his eyes lifted.

-Is this my prank considered bullying at school?

Will you report me to detective nim now?

He mocked. “… But if you continue to knock on me like that, your hand will hurt.”

-Jin-Woo looked indifferently at the guy. And, indeed, Nam Joon Sik’s face began to blush. He felt his hand hurt like hell. But despite this, he did not lag behind. His victim’s reaction seemed too relaxed to him.

-Ahh, hell, why does he have such a shitty look?

-And Nam Joon Sik dared everything from the desk of Jin Woo. Textbooks, notebooks and his pencil case with a couple of little things

-everything flew to the floor. The ten-million-strong shadow army, hidden in the shadow of Jin Woo, roared together in fury when they saw such a demonstration of strength from teenager. The bully did not stop there. He grabbed Jin Woo by the breast. And only then did his face begin to darken.

-What?

Do you want to go out?

You should have calmed down while I still behaved myself, understood?

And then a huge hand appeared from somewhere above and grabbed Nam June Sik tightly by the throat.

-Xxx!

-coughing miserably, a pale hooligan grabbed this broad arm. And at that time a familiar face appeared over his head, “Boy, do you have questions for our beloved ace of the athletes team?

This face belonged to none other than the captain of the circle, third-grader of high school Cho Tae Woon. And he was also accompanied by another third-grader, elder with a short patience, John Gu Sik. All four of the hooligans were caught by senior student athletes, and from a lack of air they turned pale. Jin-Woo silently stood up from his desk and raised a pencil case. Jin Na bought this pencil case to mark his successful high school entrance, so these hooligans would not get off so easily if anything happened to him. He wiped his desk off the dust and put the pencil case back before asking the athletes.

-What brought you here?

-We came to convince our ace not to knock out all the nonsense from the four idiots.

-No, well, please. Seriously.

-Ah ha ha ha ha ha!

-Cho Tae Woon’s huge body shook with a wave of loud laughter before he continued, “You see, I forgot to tell you that we were planning to hold a welcome party today for our new members.” You and Young Gil are free today, right?

Jin-Woo glanced at Young Gil. He nodded.

-Yes, we are free.

-In that case, see you after school,

-still smiling, the high school students began to leave one by one. But at that moment, Jin-Woo turned to them to stop their procession from the classroom. “Where are you taking these four, who you still hold?

” “Ah hah, these idiots?

”

-and Cho Tae Woon conspiratorially exchanged glances with John Gu Sik,

-Well, what can we do with them?

-How about a little run around the site, captain?

-That sounds good!

-and soon the screams “We will conquer the whole country!

” slowly moved away from the class. * ding-dong ding-dong several calls rang announcing the end of the lessons. And then a few more. Jin Woo went out of the school gates along with the rest of the athletes. Young Gil, getting used to the training regimen, began to appreciate the joy of work and sweat, although he periodically received timely amplifications from Jin-Woo. While Young Gil was listening to the elders” advice, while walking with them, Jin-Woo was one step behind. He walked behind and listened to the surrounding conversations. It was, without a doubt, the peaceful sight of a normal day. John Gu Sik, who was walking in front, turned his head in the direction of Jin-Woo and asked.

-Oh, okay. Hey Jin Woo?

What did it find on those idiots?

Maybe we, as the elders, should “have a good talk” with them so that they don’t do anything stupid the next time?

Jin-Woo answered in a detached tone.

-No, it’s okay.

-I’m not saying this because I’m worried about you. No, I just don’t want problems to suddenly appear. Suddenly, because of these idiots, you will not be able to participate in regional competitions?

Jin-Woo grinned animatedly.

-Don’t worry. I will not allow this. And then someone appeared behind the school gates and turned to Jin Woo.

-Hunter Song Jin-Woonim. at that moment in time as if it had stopped. Jin-Woo froze and slowly turned his head in the direction from which that voice came. Detective Wu Jin Chul had been waiting for Jin Woo all this time. The voice of the latter trembled slightly:

-But how..?

After receiving confirmation from Jin-Woo’s reply, Detective Wu’s eyes Jin Chol’s eyes began to water.

-As I thought… You are him.
