Oh Sang-man, the captain of Investigation Staff 1 of the Seoul Metropolitan Police, who was sitting behind a brown van within the underground car parking zone, turned his head on the sound of knocking on the window.
4 detectives had been gathered subsequent to the automotive.
Opening the door, Captain Oh handed out the investigation knowledge he had in his hand to the detectives.
“Hurry up and skim. Then put together for the interrogation.”
One of many detectives, who had been trying on the knowledge for some time, appeared up.
“Is not Heogi-poong cash launderer that Staff 2 has been chasing for greater than half a yr?”
“That is proper. I’ve received a particular state of affairs that he is within the emergency room of this hospital.”
“What is going on on?”
“Intentional fuel explosion. Why would the wall of the cafe out of the blue fly away in a win-win state of affairs when the deal was over? He seen the undercover detective. It looks like a contractor’s work.”
Captain Oh lowered his voice and mentioned, “Nobody is listening.”
“As you possibly can see from the information, this man will not be the tip. Financial offenders, monetary crime organizations, companions, and so on. everyone seems to be concerned right here. There’s lots of investigation. It is nonetheless January 1st, and you may simply accumulate the year-end arrest outcomes.”
“Did Staff 2 simply hand over these golden eggs?”
“What do you imply ‘simply’? Captain Chun and three fundamental detectives within the second group are in a coma. Should you cease this necessary arrest alternative due to the injured individuals, is that what a police officer ought to do?”
A golden alternative the place he was justified in consuming the outcomes of different groups’ onerous work. Captain Oh wasn’t about to let this go.
“Any more, we’ll totally interrogate and shortly determine the suspect. In order that the commissioner can see the felony’s face as quickly as he goes to work tomorrow morning. Understood?”
“Sure, sir.”
“Should you perceive, observe me whereas studying the information.”
Captain Oh received out of the van and stood in entrance of the elevator within the car parking zone. He pressed the up button and waited, and the elevator door opened.
Inside, law enforcement officials from the native police station and Inspector Ahn Seok-young of the second metropolitan space accompanied a person.
“Detective Ahn?”
“Captain Oh.”
“What’s fallacious with him? Did these gangsters do one thing loopy once more?”
Ahn Seok-young shook his head roughly pushing the desolate man sporting mounted protecting gear round his neck ahead.
“He’s the suspect behind the explosion of the cafe.”
“What?”
All of the detectives within the first group had been wide-eyed.
“I will be interrogating this individual within the workplace, so please deal with trying to find Heogi-poong.”
Captain Oh urgently requested Ahn Seok-young, who was about to depart the car parking zone.
“Hey, Officer Ahn. How had been you in a position to pay money for him whenever you had been with me? I am certain he did not flip himself in.”
“The physician at this hospital caught him and handed him over.”
“Wh-who?”
Captain Oh thought he’d heard it fallacious.
“Then, I will get going. Early morning interrogation is prohibited by the principle workplace. There are solely two hours left.”
Captain Oh had no alternative however to take a look at Ahn Seok-young like a canine who’d been chasing a hen.
At a time when Heogi-poong’s case was taken over, forcing him at hand over even the arrested felony was dropping each justification and practicality.
As quickly as Ahn Seok-young disappeared, Captain Oh mentioned.
“How did the physician catch the bomber from the cafe? You observe Ahn Seokyoung. Watch the interrogation and speak to me instantly if any details about Heogi-poong comes out.”
“Inspector Ahn will in all probability hand over the necessary info on his personal.”
“How may he simply hand it over on his personal? If it had been you, you’ll be disadvantaged of the investigation you’ve got labored so onerous for months, however you would be prepared to assist me properly.….”
Captain Oh, who identified the truth that everybody was pretending to not know as a result of he was embarrassed, coughed and received on the elevator.
“What are you doing? You are not going to get on?”
Contained in the emergency room.
The person sporting a baseball cap gritted his tooth.
[T/N: I’ll be calling him ‘baseball cap’ from now on until his name appears.]
He didn’t safe the laptop computer.
It was mentioned that it was protected by excessive encryption, so that would purchase time, but when the transaction was accomplished usually and mechanically eliminated, this may not have occurred in any respect.
The baseball cap, who was fiddling together with his cellphone to attempt to discover one other troubleshooter, shortly stopped transferring when he noticed two law enforcement officials passing by the mattress.
“As of late, gangsters do not appear to have a background. Are you sending your subordinates to a spot stuffed with law enforcement officials to warn rival organizations?”
“That man? Wasn’t he a psychopath?”
“No, the detective in cost mentioned that.”
The baseball cap’s eyes flashed when he heard this.
It was the story of a corporation preventing for affect with the Namyoung faction. Chunsik’s sale, which operated a playing home that used unlawful lottery tickets as forex, was a spot the place the amount of cash he needed to scrub was too small to be included within the transaction candidate listing.
A corporation that went this far is perhaps the reply.
The baseball cap, which turned on the darkish internet’s connector together with his cellphone, looked for buyer info and located the Chunsik boss’ quantity.
[If you help me, I’ll give you 1 billion won. 300 million won in advance]
By textual content, he introduced all the cash laundering charges to be obtained from the transaction. It was a waste when contemplating the worth of protecting this enterprise secure, but it surely was cash that wanted to be invested.
“Good job.”
Somebody approached the mattress.
“I am Oh Sang-man, the captain of Investigation Staff 1 of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Company.”
The baseball cap checked out Captain Oh after manipulating his cellphone to point out a messenger display.
“Detective, did you catch the offender who made the cafe like that?”
“We will not inform most people intimately concerning the progress of the investigation, however now we have some questions. Please reply sincerely.”
“Proper. I hope the offender is caught quickly.”
Below the baseball cap, the person’s face was coated with an harmless masks which mentioned, ‘I do not know something.’
Nurses strolling within the hallway of the emergency middle had been shocked to see the dimensions of the chief guarding the doorway of the medical workplace like a metal tower.
Muk-ho drew a full smile on his face in order that the passers-by wouldn’t be shocked, but it surely solely induced the nurses to stroll sooner.
The man subsequent to him shook his head towards Muk-ho.
“Brother, I do not assume that is proper.”
“What?”
“When that face of yours smiles, individuals get scared.”
“You punk.”
A person in his mid-30s sporting a jacket with the phrase “cyber security” on his again approached the 2.
“Excuse me…”
Checking the title written on the door and checking the 2 males. The person tilted his head, as Muk-ho requested sharply.
“What’s it?”
“Is Officer Yoon Joong-gi right here?”
“Ah. Are you right here to satisfy the detective? The one who focuses on forengi?”
“I am the forensics supervisor, Ham Sung Soo.”
“That is proper, forensics. I can solely converse two languages, Seoul and Gyeongsang-do. However you possibly can’t simply go in right here. I should be certain of your id to get in, so present me your ID.”
Click on.
The door of the workplace opened and Yoon Joong-gi slapped Muk-ho behind his head.
“Are you loopy? The place is there a gangster checking the police ID card?”
“It is due to the security of our physician. Is not that participant a imply man who is available in with a disguise? I am not a gangster right now, however the physician’s proper arm.”
“Deal with your brothers, you guys. Sergeant Ham, please are available in.”
Ham Sung-soo, who handed between the boys and entered the room, pointed outdoors with a shocked look.
“What are they doing?”
“The gangsters needlessly deal with loyalty. Don’t fret about it.”
Yoon Joong-gi sat in a chair and pointed to Dowook disinfecting the wound on his hand.
“That is Dr. Park Dowook that I discussed earlier.”
Dowook exchanged greetings with Ham Sung-soo after attaching the final band-aid to the again of the bruised hand whereas hitting the felony’s onerous physique with out realizing it.
Yoon Joong-gi pointed to the desk.
“The proof laptop computer is over there.”
Ham Sung-soo, sitting in entrance of the laptop computer, exclaimed as quickly as he noticed the display.
“That is the well-known coin blender.”
“Coin blender?”
Ham Sung-soo, who felt the ignorance contained in Yoon Joong-gi’s query, briefly defined.
“All transactions of enormous cryptocurrencies are open to the general public. The anonymity of the events to the transaction is assured, however the anonymity of the transaction itself will not be assured. That coin blender is a forex mixing program that enhances it, a sort of anti-tracking expertise.”
Ham Sung-soo, who was slowly trying on the info floating on the display, quickly opened his mouth and checked out Dowook.
“You tracked the circulate of funds earlier than mixing. If we work correctly, it can take at the very least three nights and 4 days.”
It was pure since he had the sense of the one who made it, but it surely appeared very shocking to that digital investigator. Dowook smiled awkwardly and shortly modified the topic.
“If we hint it again, can we positively catch the offender?”
“Wait a minute.”
Ham Sung-soo, who was tapping on the keyboard, sighed quietly.
“The blockchain archive on the Darkish Net is the primary buying and selling level. Even when the pockets info of cryptocurrency is obvious, it’s an excessive amount of to seek out it without delay. All the pieces is encrypted.”
Yoon Joong-gi could not sustain with the entire info, so he took out a pocket book and requested.
“Are you able to decipher it?”
“It is doable should you run this system on the headquarters and get assist from the cyber investigation unit.”
“What info are you able to get?”
“The checking account the place the precise forex was injected, the IP of the entry level, the date, one thing like that.”
The account info alone was sufficient clue to determine the offender.
Dozens of alphabets and numbers that seem like machine codes.
Yoon Joong-gi appeared on the place pointed at by Ham Sung-soo’s fingertips for a very long time, however he could not perceive what it was in any respect.
“Even when it appears like a meaningless listing, it is an uneven cryptographic system utilizing a small variety of RSA. Have you learnt Snowden? The one who uncovered the CIA corruption. He additionally used this methodology to change info to keep away from CIA monitoring. Because of you, now we have a decoding program.”
Yoon Joong-gi, who was diligently writing down info in his pocket book, requested.
“How lengthy does it take to substantiate with clues?””
“About 3 days…”
“I want it executed by tomorrow morning. You possibly can’t maintain on to extra individuals with out proof.”
“Let’s recruit a couple of extra group members and shorten it as a lot as doable. Our group owes quite a bit to Captain Cheon, too.”
Ham Sung-soo stood up and put the laptop computer in his bag. After bowing barely to Dowook, he turned to Yoon Joong-gi and requested very fastidiously.
“How is the captain doing?”
“He nonetheless hasn’t turn out to be acutely aware.”
“Oh my…”
“Please. We now have to catch him.”
The forensics officer left and Yoon Joong-gi checked out Dowook.
“Physician, I received an enormous clue due to you. Thanks a lot.”
“What? Maintain on tight and put him behind bars. Can we arrest him with this?”
“Sure, so long as we preserve to the Miranda Rights.”
Yoon Joong-gi checked out Dowook remembering what he mentioned earlier and joking frivolously with a grateful look.
Yoon Joong-gi, who got here out of the hallway, bowed his head to Dowook yet one more time and disappeared towards the emergency middle.
‘It is roughly completed, proper? That pretend intern, it was actually creepy.’
Dowook walked towards the foyer to return to the neurosurgery division and turned to the boys following behind him. The 2 giant males had been following timidly.
“You do not have to observe me anymore. The police took the laptop computer.”
Muk-ho shook his head.
“How can we try this? Woongman and I will likely be your proper and left arm till the felony is caught. It is a unhealthy sport the place skilled gamers are additionally put in, so who is aware of what would occur.”
“That is proper. We’ll be the bodyguards.”
Dowook finally walked with two wings hooked up. Every physician and nurse he encountered had been busy getting out of the way in which.
Ding.
Nobody received on the elevator with them.
Dowook arrived in entrance of the workplace like that, persevering with to really feel like he had turn out to be the chief of a felony group for about three minutes.
Simply earlier than opening the door, Dowook appeared again on the two behind him.
“Are you actually going to remain right here?”
“After all.”
“You are not asking me to take part within the battle, are you?”
“No. Completely not. But when we increase it to 2 million received, would you contemplate preventing…….”
“No.”
When he refused without delay, Muk-ho scratched the again of his head.
“I believe you will get greater than that, however I can not provide greater than two as a result of I am simply the fifth. If it had been Sung-oh hyung-nim, he would have provided as much as 3 million received.”
Dowook entered the workplace and tried to shut the door, however noticed two individuals lined up facet by facet. Though they appeared fierce, he thought they weren’t that unhealthy.
“Relaxation properly, physician.”
The 2 bowed.
The neurosurgery hallway at 10 p.m. was darkish. It felt somewhat bizarre to depart it there. Anyway, he wouldn’t have been in a position to catch the pretend intern with out them.
“You possibly can sit within the chair inside, however you must be quiet. My examination is simply across the nook.”
“Can we try this? After all. We’ll preserve our mouths shut.”
“Come on in.”
The 2 males stepped fastidiously into the workplace.
All types of surgical fashions displayed on one facet of the wall. Amongst them, Muk-ho’s expression froze when he noticed the silicone head, which displayed the mind clearly.
“Oh man. What do you do right here?”
“It is an workplace and a surgical procedure apply room.”
“Physician, you’re a extremely scary individual.”
Dowook requested Muk-ho, who appeared very scared.
“Have you learnt who owns this room?”
“You?”
“No. The large physician hyung-nim.”
In response, Muk-ho grabbed his neck and the cheek subsequent to him reflexively.
Smiling Dowook pointed to 1 chair.
“Sit over there. The large hyung-nim left work, so you do not have to try this.”
“Who’s scared?”
“Oh? Professor Choi?”
When Dowook requested again towards the door, Muk-ho turned his again in shock.
After all, there was nobody within the hallway.
“Please shut the door because you turned your head.”
Muk-ho’s embarrassment,attributable to Dowook’s teasing, made his companion chortle.
“You are so cute right now, Muk-ho hyung-nim.”
“Hey. Shut up.”
Below the safety of the 2 males who had been crude however unexpectedly pure-hearted, Dowook resumed learning for his specialist examination which was disturbed by Seong Chang Soo’s emergency name.
About an hour later.
Though Dowook’s head wasn’t very drained, he couldn’t assist falling asleep due to his physique’s exhaustion. He wakened on the sound of knocking on the workplace door.
After they turned their heads round, the 2 huge guys had leaned their heads on one another and left for a distant dreamland.
Bang bang.
“Physician! Dr. Park Dowook!”
It was an pressing voice.
Dowook approached the door with out even yawning.
Click on.
When he opened the door, Yoon Joong-gi, who was coated with sweat, stood within the hallway.
“Physician, I am in hassle.”
As quickly as Yoon Joong-gi noticed Dowook, he instructed him stunning information.
“Officer Ham, who was returning to the station, was attacked. Fortuitously, it occurred close to the principle workplace, so he wasn’t severely injured, however the strongest proof to catch the felony…… It evaporated.”
Dowook was speechless. Yoon Joong-gi spoke as if asking for assist.
“It is clear that their objective was the laptop computer, however simply in case, please do not depart the hospital till morning. I will apply for private safety for you on the police station.”
“There is no proof in any respect?”
“There are nonetheless clues that I wrote right down to report back to President Chun. I will share this with the investigation group and catch it for certain.….”
Yoon Joong-gi, who was trying into the pocket book, took a couple of deep breaths with a tragic face.
From the cafe explosion to an investigator who cooperated in infiltrating a contractor.
There have been too many issues {that a} younger detective couldn’t deal with at a time when Cheon Ho-beom, who had been on the middle of the investigation, was in a coma.
“Why are you right here once more?”
Muk-ho, who wakened late, ran out in shock when he noticed Yoon Joong-gi.
“Did you catch the offender?”
“Preserve your loyalty to the physician. I will be watching you.”
As quickly as Yoon Joong-gi, who mentioned so, was about to vanish.
“Detective. Wait a minute.”
Dowook picked up his cellphone and pressed the decision button.
-Dr. Park?
“Director, is there a components that calculates a password? Have you learnt how one can clear up this?”
-Greater than 200 digits can be tough in a short while.
“Detective. The code that Sergeant Ham talked about earlier. What number of digits are there in whole?”
When requested, Yoon Joong-gi started counting the alphabets written within the pocket book together with his fingers.
“……45, 50. 54 digits.”
“They mentioned 54 digits”.
-Then it’s going to take 20 minutes.
“Oh, actually?”
-If we discover it collectively, it’d take 10 minutes.
“Then…”
-Sounds good.
The reply got here out first even earlier than he may ask. This should be why her sister saved teasing her for being a Semdeok.
-The place ought to we meet?
“I will go up.”
Dowook, who completed the decision, turned to Yoon Joong-gi.
“Are you able to photocopy that and provides me a replica? There is a mathematician I do know properly, and I believe she will clear up it. Her abilities are unimaginable.”
Yoon Joong-gi was speechless for the time being.
A way to interrupt by way of the blocked investigation once more. Was there something that the physician couldn’t do?
