The girl who appeared was a student with straight black hair and a beautiful smile with a straight posture. It was Jin Seo-yeon.
Jin Seo-yeon asked confidently without being intimidated.
"How did you know about it already?" "What?" "……That the loser was communicating with the dead." "Well, he looks a little crazy, doesn't he?"
Jin Seo-yeon smirked at Jin-Seong's answer.
"That's true……Anyway, I was following you for another reason."
And she took a step closer to Jin-Seong.
"You know something about Yushin, don't you?" "……."
Jin-Seong didn't say anything to her on purpose. For now, he had to drag her into his own pace.
Jin-Seong intentionally looked at Seo-yeon with a dissatisfied look.
"If you had any questions, you could have approached me earlier. You're acting noble, but didn’t you just follow me?"
Jin Seo-yeon's expression was slightly distorted. Jin Seo-yeon hated words that hurt her.
"I couldn't help it to avoid surveillance. Do you know how many deaths there are in this school?"
He liked her answer, but he had to hear one answer from Jin Seo-yeon.
"But it's true that you followed me. Right?" "…You're obsessed with useless things." "So apologize." "Huh…? Apologize?"
Seo-yeon then looked at Jin-Seong with a look on her face, wondering if there was anyone else like him. However, in order to deal with Jin Seo-yeon, who is strong in Pride, he has to break her pride little by little first.
"It's important to me. If you don't apologize, there won't be a next time."
Jin Seo-yeon chewed on her lips.
"Well, okay. I'll apologize as much as you want me to."
Jin Seo-yeon closed her eyes and sighed deeply. She didn't have time to talk about this. She bowed deeply to Jin-Seong with her hands politely folded.
"I'm sorry if I offended you."
Then she looked up, and unlike her expressionless face, her ears were red. She was holding back her anger very well.
Jin-Seong asked with a smile inside.
"So, why did you follow me?" "…What's your relationship with Yushin?"
Her voice was as brusque as ever.
"You sound like you're talking down on me." "Ha…… Just answer me."
Jin-Seong recalled Yushin, who he worked with in the past. He never lost his smile on his face no matter how hard it was. He was a saint who tried to save his life by reaching out his hand even if the person was a villain.
"We're the exact opposite. I didn't like him very much." "Opposite……?"
Jin Seo-yeon tilted her head at Jin-Seong's answer.
Jin-Seong was fed up with the idea of the frustrating behavior of Yushin. Despite such behavior, however, the regressionist Yushin successfully attacked dungeons and hunted the dead. Of course, Yushin was eventually killed by Kim Jun-oh during an important showdown.
When he reached that point, Jin-Seong closed his eyes tightly. And he took a deep breath and asked.
"Jin Seo-yeon, why are you chasing the dead?" "……."
Jin Seo-yeon replied calmly.
"It's because of the dead that people are missing. But this school is hiding the evidence. And they're keeping a low profile on terrorism, missing persons, and accidents on campus….…." "So, who do you think is the cause?" "……The chairman." "Why?" "He's the dead man who communicates with the demons. He is their right arm."
Jin-Seong couldn't stop smiling when he heard Jin Seo-yeon.
"So I can't relax. I don't know where the mole would be planted, so I had to investigate on my own…… That's why……."
She looked coldly at Jin-Seong.
"How do you know that? Who are you? There aren't many ways to know the dead at such a young age."
Jin Seo-yeon was suspicious of Jin-Seong's identity.
"Be honest with me."
Jin Seo-yeon was going to let Jin-Seong confess even by torturing him with psychokinesis if he gave a nonsense answer. However, Jin-Seong's answer was unexpected.
"The interrogator." "…The interrogator?"
Srrrggg!
Jin-Seong suddenly pulled out a knife. At the sight, Jin Seo-yeon reached out to him.
Jin-Seong shrugged his shoulders as if not to worry, and began to scratch the floor with the tip of his knife.
Soon after. On the floor, a torch-shaped symbol was painted on the glass.
And Jin-Seong introduced it.
"This is the symbol of the ‘Interrogator'. But you know that, don't you?"
An interrogator. So like the dead who hid their identity are infiltrated into this society. Among the opener, there are those who hide their identity and live like ordinary people. They blend into society and monitor the activities of villains and dead people like Kim Joon-oh. It was the interrogators who secretly carried out the work of preventing dungeon accidents or protecting civilian lives.
Of course, there is a separate interrogator at Hwanin Military Academy, but since he was already killed by the dead, Jin-Seong could be impersonated without burden. In addition, professors and key school officials were the only ones who could memorize the symbol. But there was also Jin Seo-yeon, the top 1 student overall evaluation among the cadets.
And Jin Seo-yeon nodded.
'…That's definitely the correct symbol.'
But she couldn't help but ask Jin-Seong, who is too young to be an interrogator.
"Even if an interrogator was to hide his identity...… Anyway, how old are you?" "Is that important?" "……No."
Jin Seo-yeon mumbled, rubbing her chin.
'The interrogator... It makes sense...….'
The interrogator is responsible for monitoring and guarding his area. Their most important task was monitoring the dead and checking for dungeons. If the interrogator did his job, it was natural to warn of Dungeon's outbreak.
"……I see. I do believe you're an interrogator."
Jin-Seong nodded quietly.
"Well, let's move on." "…Where?" "Follow me. I need to hear from one more person besides you."
A little later. Centurion Class dormitory.
"…...There's a dead man in school?"
Yoo Jae-hak asked back in surprise. Jin Seo-yeon replied calmly.
"The school is in danger." "…You want me to believe that?"
Yoo Jae-hak, who was sleeping on duty, looked at Jin-Seong with his arms crossed.
Jin Seo-yeon continued.
"We need a good striker and a good watchman. That's why I came to see you." "……."
He glanced at his true voice. Then Lee Jin-Seong asked as if he had waited.
"Yoo Jae-hak, I need you." "…Did you eat something wrong? Are you serious?"
Jin-Seong's cringe-worthy words gave him goosebumps and he rubbed his arm. Because they swung swords at each other as soon as they met, so it was awkward. And now, they had to stop by the dungeon.
Yoo Jae-hak looked at Jin Seo-yeon standing next to him this time. She just shrugged her shoulders.
"No, I just don't know what you guys are talking about…… Where’s the evidence? Do you have proof?"
Then Jin-Seong quietly went out the door.
"……?"
And Lee Jin-Seong suddenly grabbed a man by the collar.
"What, what?!"
Boom!
And he threw the man on the floor. Jae-hak was surprised.
"What!"
Jin-Seong pointed to the man who calmly fell to the floor.
"He’s a living-dead." "…What?"
Yoo Jae-hak realized that the man looked strange. He had two red eyes and pale skin like a corpse. And it was the true image of the dead man when he saw the nails as sharp as an animal.
"Well……."
The dead man on the floor was moaning. And Yoo Jae-hak was shocked.
"Sir...…?!"
The face of the dormitory teacher, who was beaten moderately by Lee Jin-Seong, was bruised everywhere and his lips burst out. Then Jin-Seong urged.
"That's enough, isn't it?" "Uh……Uh……."
Yoo Jae-hak had no choice but to reply foolishly. Jin Seo-yeon emphasized.
"You can't tell anyone about this. You know what I'm saying, right?" "Yes…… Well, yes, I should…… Oh, this is a bit of a shock, uh...…."
After muttering as if he was a broken toy, he stared at Jin Seo-yeon.
"Yeah, so the living-dead are hiding all over the school...… I understand that now."
Ugh...
Then he moaned and rubbed his head against the pillow.
He was wondering if this was even a dream.
However, Yoo Jae-hak knew that was the answer.
"Oh... Okay. I'll be there...."
When Yoo Jae-hak declared after a long thought, Jin Seo-yeon nodded. And Yoo Jae-hak, who was half out of his mind, looked at Lee Jin-Seong.
"So, Lee Jin-Seong, who are you?" "An interrogator." "…What are you talking about? An interrogator… But you’re still too young.…."
Yoo Jae-hak looked back at Jin Seo-yeon. But Jin Seo-yeon was nodding deeply.
"……Huh? What's that reaction?" "He is an interrogator."
This time, Jin Seo-yeon confirmed.
"Oh…… please….…."
Yoo Jae-hak saw his true voice with a rotten smile.
"How can there be such a young interrogator...…."
However, his playful face made him cry.
"It’s true……….…."
Yoo Jae-hak seriously considered whether to speak informally or formally towards Jin-Seong.
'Ha... Yeah, a guard can't stay still when bad things are happening in my school.….'
Yoo Jae-hak, who was struck by lightning while sleeping, said so, rubbing his head. Yoo Jae-hak decided to participate in the dungeon attack.
Jin Seo-yeon, who came out of the dormitory together, asked Jin-Seong.
"…Is this number of people good enough as a squad?" "Yes, this is perfect."
It was then.
Vrooooooom!
A yellow sports car was running to the entrance of the dormitory from afar.
Squeak!
Then the person hit the brakes quickly and stopped exactly in front of Jin-Seong. A woman wearing sunglasses appeared as the heavily tinted window went down.
"What's going on~ Are you already dating someone?
It was Kang Min-ah who showed up with a playful expression.
"Hello, professor."
Kang Min-ah looked at Jin Seo-yeon and whistled.
"Wow, with the most beautiful girl on campus? Oh, my." "LOL, it's not like that!"
Jin Seo-yeon wanted to explain, but Kang Min-ah didn't want to hear the explanation. She just giggled and smiled and said to Jin-Seong.
"I heard about what happened. I heard you smashed the Centurion class." "…It was just a measurement." "So, the chairman wants to see you."
Jin Seo-yeon, who had been blushing a while ago, returned to her usual poker face. Jin Seo-yeon also knew who the chairman was.
"All of a sudden?" "He's asking if you can come to the office now. What do you say? Can you go?" "……."
At that time, Jin Seo-yeon, who made eye contact with Jin-Seong, shook her head quietly.
'It's too dangerous.'
However, Jin-Seong was as calm as always despite Seo-yeon's concerns.
And Jin-Seong whispered to Seo-yeon.
'If I contact you, proceed as planned.'
Seo-yeon nodded as if she had understood.
Jin-Seong greeted Seo-yeon and jumped into the Mustang.
'This will be a lot easier than I thought.'
Jin-Seong was confident even at the call of the chairman.
The girl who appeared was a student with straight black hair and a beautiful smile with a straight posture. It was Jin Seo-yeon.
Jin Seo-yeon asked confidently without being intimidated.
"How did you know about it already?" "What?" "……That the loser was communicating with the dead." "Well, he looks a little crazy, doesn't he?"
