Episode 1504. Hey… it’s legal power.
In response to her daughter’s question ‘What kind of person is Yeon-jeok?’ Jin and Wol recalled their meeting with him.
At first he appeared to be of unsound mind.
Of course as time passed the strange words and actions decreased but it was still far from normal.
“He is a sick person.”
Jin Guawol concluded with those words.
And it was a truth that could only be told to family.
“It hurts? Where are you going?”
“There’s something wrong with my head.”
“Your head? “Do you have amnesia or something?”
In Christie’s opinion there was no one as healthy as Yeon Je-ha.
As a result I couldn’t think of a suitable diagnosis other than amnesia.
“It’s not that way… it’s a mental problem.”
“Are you crazy?”
When Christy showed interest he said more clearly that Jin and Wol would not do it.
“He is not a normal person. “He lives thinking he is the protagonist of a martial arts drama.”
Jin Gwa-wol even taught him that he carried a badge instead of an ID card.
“He said he didn’t even go to elementary school… he’s smart for something like that… but it appears he doesn’t remember or has distorted memories. But seeing as he doesn’t understand a word of English… it seems real.”
“English is difficult even after graduating from college.”
“Not like that English…. So he couldn’t even understand basic things like TV dramas and cell phones. “I didn’t even know what year it was.”
“ah! is it so? “It looked fine.”
“Don’t they say that you know ten ways in the water but you don’t know one way in the people?”
“I don’t think that word is used in this situation?”
“It’s okay as long as we understand each other. That guy is completely different from what he looks like. It is said that he wanders the world to meet the wise woman of nine heavens. “Then isn’t that what I said?”
“Gucheonhyeonnyeo? “Isn’t that a bit serious?”
“My words.”
Jin and Wol nodded at her.
Seeing her daughter’s negative reaction to her love affair finally put her at ease.
“Where is your house?”
“He said it was the Seokgyeongjang of Hebi Yeo Gang-hyeon… The Seokgyeongjang disappeared in a fire 57 years ago. So either she’s lying or she doesn’t even know where her house is. My boss and I think it’s the latter. Still I don’t think he’s the kind of guy who would lie.”
“That’s interesting.”
“interest? Just thinking about that guy gives me a headache. “I went to an entertainment establishment last night… No I shouldn’t say that.”
“why? “What happened?”
Jin and Wol who glanced at their daughter’s profile said that she reluctantly pretended to do so.
She said “She was worked on by a bar madam and she was taken to the police station. “If the ID card process had been delayed by just one day… I would have been called to the police station.”
“She was worked on?”
“It looks like they mixed alcohol with mulppong and gave it to them. “She was at a motel when she was caught by the police who were out to crack down on prostitution and she was taken straight to the police station.”
“No isn’t that something that only happens to women? “It must have been your first time going to a bar so why did you trust me and just take whatever you gave me?”
“I don’t know. “I wonder who told me to eat it in my head.”
Jin and Wol who thought her Yeonjeokha was a completely crazy person were speechless.
“dad.”
“why?”
“Has the doctor diagnosed him as mentally ill?”
“You don’t necessarily have to see a doctor to find out.”
“But it’s just a guess. So I think she’d better not say that. Moreover to her father he is a lifesaver….”
Jin and Wol looked at her daughter again as her hot-tempered daughter suddenly spoke like her moral teacher.
“Look ahead when driving.”
“No I thought she was my daughter. Was she brainwashed or something like that in Jangnak’s room?”
“They say that when she goes through hardships she matures.”
“….”
Jin and Wol were speechless at the sight of their daughter’s sudden adult appearance.
***
Hongryeon Store staff quarters.
Yeonjeokha who was watching TV late at night shouted ‘Knock knock!’ I opened the door to the sound of a knock.
Liu Qingyun holding a large plastic bag in one hand smiled mischievously and said.
“I’m going to have a drink with Brother Yeon. Are you okay?”
“Oh come in.”
When Yeon Je-he opened the door wide Liu Qingyun went inside and sat down.
Soon he brought beer and snacks to the small table.
Without saying a word I opened a can of beer and took a sip.
Civilization is amazing at first but once you get used to it it just becomes a part of life.
To Yeon Je-he modern civilization was like that.
He used to be a cool-headed person so now he rarely does anything that stands out.
Liu Qingyun said while looking at Yeon Jeok-ha who could not take his eyes off the TV screen.
“Brother Yeon is TV fun? It seems like you watch TV until dawn. “Are you getting any sleep?”
“Someone said that on TV. “Sleep is dead so you can sleep to your heart’s content.”
“Wow brother isn’t that kind of TV addiction?”
“I don’t watch it during the day so what is an addiction? “It’s addictive to watch it even during the day.”
“Brother don’t you watch all night? Then I was really hooked. “Just take a look.”
“There’s nothing better than TV to understand the world.”
“That’s the excuse of TV addicts. Do you know what people who have eaten ink say about TV?”
“What are they saying?”
“It’s an idiot box. When people just watch TV their brains harden. “When I showed everything on video they said they didn’t think creatively.”
“I don’t mind seeing more. “I think watching one movie is better than reading ten books.”
“Oh my brother. “You’re really addicted.”
“Hey I’m unstoppable.”
“Oh yes yes. Would you like to learn? “But I have one question.”
“What is it?”
“Perhaps my brother…. No. “Is that possible?”
“Stop talking to yourself. “Bland guy.”
Ryu Cheong-un who was teased by Yeon Jeok-ha cried out with the feeling ‘I don’t know!’
“Mr. Christie’s return has nothing to do with you right?”
“I? By what means?”
“That’s right. “It just so happened that on the day my brother shouted at me Mr. Christie came back and brought it to me… I was wondering if it was possible so I asked him about it.”
“Have you ever heard the saying “When a crow flies a ship falls?” “Think of it like that.”
“I think so too but….”
Liu Qingyun trailed off.
When I think back to the look in Yeon Jeok-ha’s eyes this morning it doesn’t seem like it.
“That’s it then.”
He lightly dismissed Ryu Cheong-un’s doubts.
Ryu Cheong-un who gulped down his beer as if he was frustrated asked as if to confirm.
“Brother is it true that you really don’t have dimensional powers?”
“The vice president measured it with a portable meter and it wasn’t there. “If you don’t trust it you can measure it again.”
“So I prepared.”
With those words Liu Qingyun took out a black pad a little larger than his wallet from his arms.
It was the genetic mutation measuring device (MDM).
When he turned on the switch he held out one hand with a grumpy look on his face.
Yeonjeokha’s palm rested on the pad.
The measured value was again 0 this time.
Ryu Cheong-un who was staring at the screen muttered with a dejected look on his face.
“ha! It’s really 0. “You weren’t a mutant.”
“I don’t lie. “If you lie your legal power decreases so it’s been a long time since you stopped telling lies.”
Ryu Cheong-un said as if he was dumbfounded as he took the measuring instrument.
“Dharma power? “You’re talking like some kind of Taoist monk.”
“I am not a Taoist but I trained at the Five Dragon Palace.”
“Ohryong Palace? “Where is it?”
“It’s in Wudang Mountain.”
“Brother are you interested in that? What’s going on in the world these days? “They’re talking about setting up a manned base on the moon and all.”
“What does it have to do with attainment and attainment?”
“In today’s world where science is so advanced what does it mean to attain enlightenment? “If other people hear it they’ll laugh at it.”
“The attainment of success is also a science.”
“That’s not science it’s fraud.”
For a moment Yeon Jeok-ha who was heartbroken could not help but cry.
“Hey that’s like saying I’m a fraud. “What kind of fraud have I committed?”
Yeon Jeok-he was angry but Liu Qingyun who was under the influence of alcohol did not back down.
“I’m not saying that you are a fraudster… I’m just saying that the Taoists are fraudsters. So all the conduits were destroyed and there were only a few left. Tugwan in Wudang Mountain is now just a tourist attraction. Brother please come to your senses quickly and turn your eyes to reality.”
“Am I also faithful to reality?”
“Does that kind of person wield legal power? “I’m not even in the world anyway.”
“There is no legal power in the world?”
“Yes if you have it please show me. You can’t show it right? why? Because there isn’t one. They make excuses and excuses but the result is always the same. Why can’t you show me? “Because there isn’t one.”
“Who says you can’t show me? “Follow me.”
Yeon Jeok-ha got up from his seat opened the door and went out.
Liu Qingyun followed closely behind him breathing heavily as if he would not back down.
I walked to the backyard of Hongryun Store.
In the backyard abandoned plastic liquor boxes were piled up here and there.
Yeonjeokha stuck his hand into Mahadam and took out a bundle of his amulets.
“Let’s see what’s left. Heukunmanlibu (黑雲萬里符) is hard to see because it is night time… Byeokryeokbu (霹靂符) is a bit noisy… It’s quiet and hot… That’s right! In this case the fire department is perfect.”
Yeon Jeok-ha who took out an amulet turned his head to Liu Qingyun.
“Are you ready to see the magic?”
“Oh yes I’ve been waiting for you since a while ago.”
A sneer appeared on Ryu Cheong-un’s face as he was distracted by something else for a moment.
Yeon Jeok-ha flicked the amulet against a pile of plastic liquor boxes.
“Nine Heavenly Wise Woman I only rely on you so please reveal the flame with your divine power [Nine Heavenly Wise Woman 但憑火焰威神力]!”
The talisman that was fluttering around stuck to a pile of plastic liquor boxes.
Grumbling!
Soon red flames rose from the plastic liquor box.
Due to the strong wind that blew at that moment the flames quickly spread to other boxes.
Yeon Jeok-ha said with a triumphant expression.
“Did you see it? “This is legal power.”
At that moment Ryu Qingyun shouted with a surprised face.
“older brother! “Are you crazy?”
He quickly took out his cell phone without even looking at Yeon Jeok-ha’s face.
“hello? It’s the Fire Department right? This is Hongryun Sanghoe in Joyang Jung-ro Jangwan-gu! Yes that’s right. That Hongnyeon Store. A fire broke out in a yard where materials were stored. Please come quickly! “Hurry!”
Then without even looking at Yeon Jeok-ha he ran into the Hongryun Store and shouted.
“Fire! Fire! “Get up!”
Yeon Jeok-ha who wanted to regret it too late ran to Hongryun Store.
Soon after Hongryun Store employees woke up and rushed out carrying fire extinguishers and water bottles.
Employees tried to extinguish the fire but the fire was not easily extinguished.
Rather it grew stronger due to the strong wind.
At the moment of crisis fire trucks rushed in with loud sirens.
Thanks to the quick response of the fire department the fire was extinguished with only a pile of plastic liquor boxes burning.
Fire investigators combed through piles of melted plastic.
The goal is to find the cause of the ignition.
A fire investigator who was making inquiries came to the first reporter Ryu Cheong-un and asked.
“Was there anything that could have started a fire? “Someone threw away a cigarette butt or something.”
“There was nothing like that. And our company has a separate smoking room. “Even if they happen to smoke outside they do so near the building. There are no employees who come out this far to smoke.”
“Hmm! “It wasn’t due to a short circuit as there were no power lines around… Anyway I knew it well.”
The fire inspector bowed and then returned.
After a while the fire trucks and firefighters left like an ebb.
Yue Kang-rok who was smoking a cigarette with a tired face stubbed out the remaining cigarette and approached Liu Qingyun.
“What happened?”
“Well… I was drinking with Brother Yeon and came out to get some fresh air… I saw the fire so I called 119 and notified the employees.”
Yu Cheong-un hid the fact that the arsonist was a serial killer.
If you think about it it all happened because he asked to show his legal power.
“okay? “It couldn’t have been something that happened in Jangnakbang right?”
“Oh…probably not. “Would you have been caught just by looking at the CCTV on the street?”
“yes? Why did the fire suddenly start? Anyway well done. “If it weren’t for you the business would have been left alone.”
After appreciating Liu Qingyun’s contribution Ae Kang-rok trudged back to his lodgings.
Yeon Jeok-ha who had been watching from afar slowly approached Ryu Cheong-un who was left alone.
“It was hard. But what kind of wind suddenly blows like that? “If it weren’t for you I would have been in real trouble.”
“ha! “I don’t know what kind of trick it is but next time please be selective about the time and place.”
Ryu Qingyun shot back coldly and turned around without even hearing an answer.
Yeonjeokha spoke helplessly towards him as he walked away.
“Hey… it’s magical power.”
