Episode 42
Sigh!
“Oops!”
Dan Woo-hyeon’s palm flew out of nowhere and hit Hong Won-chang on the back of the head.
Hong Won-chang sat down, held his head with both hands, and swallowed a moan.
Why should you be right?
There is an evil enemy over there that needs to be beaten to death.
Hong Won-chang, who came early in the morning to announce the fact, was on the verge of tears because of the injustice.
“What on earth is the fuss about?”
“Ugh, that’s….”
“No, why did you come to me and receive some kind of aura? “What happened to your head after coming back from Beijing?”
Jang Sam-tae also looked annoyed at being suddenly treated like a criminal. In my mind, I was worried that my past thefts might have been discovered, but I put on a shameless expression to avoid getting caught.
“Keuhum!”
Hong Won-chang, who cleared his throat, immediately took out a page from his pocket and unfolded it.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on that appearance.
“This… this…!”
“Are you still going to turn away like this?”
“Jang Sam-tae? “It’s my name, right?”
“Oh my god, did you even traffick in opium
?”
“Mister, what does it say?”
Jang Sam-tae, whose complexion was pale, stared at his appearance, but there was no way his name would change.
Looking at Hong Won-chang with a dumbfounded expression.
“Nonsense! “I am not.”
“No, it doesn’t matter. “The name is the same and the appearance is similar.”
“Well, no! “No matter how tight my money is, I won’t engage in opium trafficking or human trafficking!” He shook his head and vehemently denied it.
I’m not lying.
Although he made a living by stealing, he did not abandon the bare minimum of duty.
But opium trafficking in human trafficking? Even the charge of murder was clearly written down, so it didn’t seem like the level of punishment that would result in having your head blown off if you made a mistake was not enough.
“Look at this. “How does this disfigurement resemble me?”
Jang Sam-tae suddenly snatched the dragon mower that Hong Won-chang was holding and lifted it next to his face. Everyone’s eyes began to move here and there and make comparisons.
The first thing to open your mouth is.
“Wow, it’s just like you! “You drew a really good picture.”
“If you put it that way, it seems more similar.” “They’re the same person?”
Jang Sam-tae’s face hardened.
‘Nonsense!’
How could he resemble such an evil man?
He suppressed his rising irritation and took a closer look at his appearance.
Jang Sam-tae, who could not take his eyes off him for a while, muttered quietly.
“…It’s similar?”
Kwon Moo-jin saw that and laughed.
It seems that Jang Sam-tae’s behavior of turning away was funny.
I could never have imagined that I would commit such a crime.
Even opium trafficking?
“No, look straight! This guy has a really big mole next to his nose!
“I don’t have anything like this!”
Jang Sam-tae resisted harshly.
Because I know that I have to prove my innocence to get out of this ridiculous situation.
Of course, he himself admits that his facial features are similar, but there was no big mole next to his nose like this guy.
At that time, Kwon Moo-jin broke the rock and buried the dirt on his hand next to Jang Sam-tae’s nose.
In an instant, everyone’s eyes widened.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who was watching quietly, slowly placed his hand on Jang Sam-tae’s shoulder and said this.
“You are right. Confess quickly.”
“Ah shit! That’s because it’s not! “What does that crazy guy put on people’s faces!”
It was unfair.
I felt like I was going to die of such injustice.
Even though I stamped my feet and cursed, these people did not easily believe me.
It seemed like he really thought that Jang Sam-tae had committed all the crimes.
“no! Uncle Jang is not that kind of person!”
It was none other than Dan So-mi who came to his defense at that time.
The child, who was standing among the people as if covering Jang Sam-tae, looked up at Hong Won-chang and clenched his fists.
“But Somi, if you look at this disfigurement….”
“The person who drew the picture made a mistake! “Uncle Jang is never the type of person to do anything bad!”
“The name…”
“It could be someone with the same name as Uncle Jang!”
What Dansomi said was not wrong.
As the central area was wide, there were many people, and since Jang was so common, it would probably be endless to count the number of people with the same name.
Hong Won-chang scratched his head.
They looked exactly the same and even had the same name.
There was no need to doubt that it was that guy, but after listening to Somi’s words, I was confused again.
“No, but if it fits this well…”
When Hong Won-chang hesitated and couldn’t continue speaking, Jang Sam-tae, whose fever rose to the top of his head, cried out! He spat and raised his voice.
“Ah Nimiral! “I will catch this guy myself!”
“I’ll help Somi too! Let’s work together to catch the real culprit!”
“As expected, Somi is the only one who thinks about me! “Let’s go, Somi!”
“yes!”
Jang Sam-tae and Dan So-mi, with their backs turned, left Dhadak Manor.
‘Have you thought about where and how to find it? Moreover, he even took a small child with him…’
Dan Woo-hyeon shook his head.
“Seeing as there are so many charges against him, he must have been active for quite some time, but he must not have been that famous.”
“Yes, the reason why there has been so much dissemination recently is because a witness appeared by chance. “Until then, I didn’t even know such a vicious person existed.”
“He’s active in the Honam area…”
“I haven’t given my appearance to the police yet, so that guy won’t catch me, but if he looks so similar, it’s an issue I can’t ignore lightly.”
“Know. “Don’t worry, I’ll be back.”
In fact, Dan Woo-hyeon did not think that Jang Sam-tae would have done such a thing.
It was only about half a year at most, but I can be sure because I saw his personality while we were together.
He may steal, but he has never committed murder, human trafficking, or opium trafficking.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and turned his head.
By the way, where did these guys go?
“But where are you going?” Jang Sam-tae, who had been moving with Dan So-mi’s hand, suddenly stopped walking. The root of the problem was that I was so angry that I ran out without even thinking.
In any case, the task is to find the criminal.
There was no place to go with a child.
If you want to get information, you have to go to Haomun in the red light district, and if that’s not possible, you end up having to go to a shadowy place like a gambling house.
“What’s wrong, mister?” It was uncomfortable to go back after speaking so confidently.
Since we had only walked a short distance, we could have left the child behind… but
it was impossible to leave Dan So-mi, whose expression was so full of anticipation, behind.
“What on earth do you want to do?” Then I heard a familiar voice.
When I suddenly raise my head, Dan Woo-hyeon and Kwon Moo-jin are standing in front of me.
“A risk! First, let’s go to a place like a gambling house…”
“With Somi?”
Jang Sam-tae held his breath as he looked at his intrusive gaze. Dan Woo-hyeon always wants to show only good things to Dan So-mi and excludes bad things in advance.
If Jang Sam-tae were judged to be harmful to So-mi’s education, it was clear that Dan Woo-hyeon would kick him out without hesitation.
“Can’t Somi go too?”
“Let’s go together later when we grow up.”
Dansomi puffed out her cheeks and said, “Woo!”
I came here with high expectations, but when I heard that I couldn’t go anywhere, I wasn’t happy about it.
Dan Woohyun stroked Somi’s head.
“If you’re hanging out in Agyang with Mujin, I’ll come find you.”
“Is that okay?”
“Of course.”
When Dan So-mi, with a bright smile on her face, extended a small hand towards Kwon Moo-jin, who was standing blankly, he looked a little embarrassed, but then caught it with a cheerful smile.
“Then I’ll be back.”
Kwon Moo-jin bowed and headed toward Akyang, leading Dan So-mi. Jang Sam-tae, who had been watching the two people disappear for a while, hesitated and opened his mouth to Dan Woo-hyeon.
“I… it’s not really me.”
” know.”
“Then why do they look alike…?”
“It was a joke.”
‘Is this guy for real?’
Jang Sam-tae barely suppressed his blushing. I felt like I was going to swear at Dan Woo-hyeon from the bottom of my heart, so I had to suppress it as much as possible.
“Let’s look for him first. “What is the easiest way to find criminals
?”
“Knocking on similar categories?”
” right.”
Dan Woohyun grinned.
However, no one should be fooled. You will only have a certain level of information if you are at a certain level and have made a name for yourself with your fists.
“Are you going to business?”
Changsa is the capital of Honam. It was a city so large that it could not even be compared to Akyang, and it was also a place where so many people were mixed together.
But Dan Woo-hyeon shook his head.
“No, the business is big, but shouldn’t we start by looking at small places so they don’t know we’re moving?”
Since you have no idea who the other party is or who is behind it, if you go straight into the business and aim for a big place and the information leaks out, you will never be able to find it.
So, if you start by targeting small town gambling dens or small business owners, the information will spread slowly and you will be able to buy that much time.
‘It’s a small town with a gambling house near Akyang?’
Jang Sam-tae was troubled.
“There is no need to think deeply. “I have no intention of going to the village.”
” yes?”
“He said he was trafficking opium. “Then who are these people who buy opium?”
There were quite a few people buying opium.
The same goes for the back alley Parakho, the Haomun gang, bandits and thieves.
Among those who committed crimes, those who did not use opium were extremely rare.
“Human trafficking and opium. “The ones that are related to these two things and are the closest.”
“ah! bandit!”
“Yes, I don’t know where the magic bandits are wandering around, but bandits have a set living area, so unless they are defeated at the coffin, they stay in one place.”
Bandits are people who do anything that makes money. If you kill them, you will be able to obtain a lot of information.
“Then… where would the bandits be…”
Dan Woo-hyeon muttered softly and turned his head to the west.
A large mountain was visible standing tall there.
Akrok Mountain (括m mountain).
It was a mountain not far from Agyang.
It was also a mountain with steep terrain and many places to hide. If Hong Won-chang had been here, he might have applauded in welcome for Dan Woo-hyeon going to Akroksan Mountain.
