Chapter 122 – Drugs (2)
After joining the drug squad, we were briefed and transferred to an undercover vehicle.
Anyway, if the hunters were involved, the general police force alone was not enough, so there was no useless quarrel.
We arrest Hunter, and they just have to put the drug dealers in.
All unnecessary greed can be pampered only when there is room for it.
There are several hidden vehicles in the special unit, but…
What I brought today is a command vehicle full of advanced equipment.
The head of the drug squad could not hide his sincere face his.
“Is this a special unit…”
“Our cars are great too, right? But, how do drug dealers deal with money?”
“That’s right, I usually deal directly with the buyer.”
“No. Still, the general manager will be a little different.”
The drug squad admires Tia’s question slightly.
Yes, no matter how organized a crime drug is, there will always be a mastermind.
The role of connecting producers and sellers, educating and managing sellers, even if not until buyers and sellers.
Sometimes currency exchange and withdrawals are also subcontracted.
“Do you know the master plan? That’s great.”
“These days, almost all transactions use cryptocurrencies.”
“Ah, it’s a coin… Then it must be easy to hide even if you’re a drug lord.”
“Right.”
Drug dealers are high-risk, high-paying jobs.
It’s not uncommon to hide that much cash.
So, recently, there is a trend of willingly accepting fees and market fluctuations and using cryptocurrency.
This is not only the drug master, but also ordinary traders skillfully use it, so it is said that it is very delicious.
“They said that his cryptocurrency his ruined everyone. If you trade with cryptocurrency, it will be very difficult to recover the proceeds of crime…”
“There are a lot of teenage drug dealers these days.”
The narcotics squad grumbled in the car as they moved to their cover location.
The lowering of the age of crime is very bad news.
A high-profit crime that anyone can easily access with a little study!
That’s why you’re bound to be seduced quickly.
If you use drugs, the pleasure that is hard to handle lasts for a long time and messes with your whole body.
The experience of complete destruction of existing values along with the nervous system.
Once you go through it, you can’t go back to it again.
There is news that Yoo Si-hyeon, whom we captured, is now suffering from aftereffects in prison.
‘Of course, he’s not alone in suffering other than drug aftereffects.’
To a customer who has become an addict like that, he seduces them by offering them some service if they recruit a new customer.
If you repeat it a few times, a full-fledged drug salesman is born.
Teenagers, especially without money, come very easily, either because they are stealing money from home, or because they are working as drug dealers, or both.
If you sell a little bit of drugs, you can make a lot of money and be proud of yourself in front of others.
If you store it as virtual currency in a foreign exchange, there is no fear of confiscation.
It’s too sweet a temptation for unsuspecting addicts.
“Wow…”
Tia opened a bag of snacks while shaking slightly.
Thankfully, he didn’t seem to need any drugs.
As long as he has that and a Coke, his happiness level his will exceed 100 %.
“So, who is the target this time?”
“What we are aiming for is a gunman nicknamed ‘Spider’. Gender unknown, age unknown. Active on Telegram.”
“Spider…”
“First of all, it’s almost certain to have its own manufacturing facilities, and above all, the selection of sales targets for this guy is really amazing.”
Because current drug crimes are highly organized, it is said that tips from people around you play a very large role in arrests.
Or maybe he was drugged and committed another crime and got arrested by accident…
But the gunman, Spider, was famous for being very careful about what he sold.
He or she was selling drugs to select customers who were fairly wealthy but who were highly addicted.
“There have been very few reports of the spider so far. We would have missed it too.”
“Is that such a strange thing?”
“Even if there is an organized dot, most drug dealers and masterminds are caught on tip-offs. Accusations of accomplices reduce sentences significantly.”
“Ah…”
Alice easily understands the drug squad’s explanation.
It is clear that you have chosen your customers well.
“Then how are you going to arrest him?”
“We’ll go with the flow of things.”
“The flow of things…”
“Spiders also use telegrams and throws, but at the end of the day, the product actually gets passed from the manufacturer to the customer. So you’re tracing the flow in reverse.”
Currently, the drug squad is monitoring a simple salesman, but…
It’s okay though.
In any case, there is a high probability that the general manager and the salesperson do not even know each other’s faces.
So, even after being arrested, you can pretend to be fine and continue to receive goods.
“But… The key to throwing is to have already brought the object and show you the location, right? It’s impossible to track the funds because you’re trading in virtual currency. If he sends you a picture, it’s already gone. Is the object traceable?”
“Anyway, I’ve narrowed down the expected points to a few places. The carriers seem to have trouble finding a new place every time, so they put them in similar places. After that, you can look through the CCTV.”
“Oh oh.”
The appearance of not missing the trivial mistakes of criminal groups.
It is impossible to do without a lot of tenacity and desire.
I was in the mood to scout the drug squad members.
As soon as our conversation ended, today’s target, a salesperson, appeared on the scene.
Unlike the carrier, this one was a guy with a professional spirit who catered to the customer’s needs… But we were the buyers in the first place.
The entrapment investigation itself has no room for excuses.
However, drug crime was originally a field where such entrapment investigations were often allowed.
Honestly, if you don’t do this, there’s no real answer.
“Oh, come.”
“I went into the building… And came out.”
“Arrest immediately!”
As soon as the class president’s order was given, the team members rushed out.
They recovered the evidence, the drug, without difficulty and returned quickly.
The special unit, including myself, decided to wait until the arrested salesman willingly cooperated, and then accompany them again when they stormed the manufacturing plant.
Before parting, I suddenly asked the class president.
“Oh, could you share a list of drug buyers?”
“Yeah? Why is that all of a sudden…”
“We also want to see if there is a Hunter involved. Let’s not interfere with the drug squad.”
“No interruption, don’t say that.”
The class president said that, but hesitated for a long time before finally sharing the investigation information.
Alice looked at me and asked quietly.
“I’m serious?”
“No. Chemical hunters are basically subject to surveillance anyway. If they are contributing to drug production, the probability that they are unlicensed hunters is very high.”
“Well, then why…”
The target of this investigation is Spider, who is in charge.
However, there is no guarantee that he will stay with the manufacturer.
Seeing him move so cautiously, he must be staying in a safe place.
“It’s worthwhile to arrest the manufacturers, but wouldn’t it be better to catch them all?”
The biggest feature of Gummy is that the selection of sales targets is amazing.
I was sure there was a trick to it.
“Then it would be best to thoroughly investigate the buyers.”
“I’m guessing you’ve been in the drug squad as well?”
“Don’t underestimate the problem of the lack of manpower among public officials in Korea. And… The drug squad doesn’t have Blanche, right?”
After I said that, Blanche, who had completed the upgrade, spoke to me through the car’s radio.
[Right. I’m back.]
“What, did you come back? What else has been added this time?”
[I have equipped the green hair horns that Green Dust Master obtained last time.]
“Tell Matthew to come out right now!”
Blanche hurriedly came to his father’s defense her as I screamed as I stopped the car.
[Please calm down. Currently, the part is inactive.]
“How?”
[Of course, I used green dust. That part is usually separated from my body, isolated in green dust. I haven’t fully understood the adverse effects of using it yet.]
Yes. It wasn’t that Irene Wilson and I objected to the installation of the part for nothing.
Isn’t the original owner of the part, green hair, almost in a state of depravity?
Blanche continued her explanation in a calm tone.
[This part can be used at any time. Master Matthew recommended a 30-second limited activation as a first experiment.]
“No way.”
[All right. Then we seal it until further instructions are given. Currently, the right to use the function belongs entirely to the master.]
“What?”
Upgraded at best, then delegated the activation authority to me.
Did Matthew still have a conscience?
I added after hesitation while letting out a sigh of relief.
“Can’t we change the activation condition a little bit?”
[How do you mean?]
“Blanche, let me use it only when you agree to activate it. In other words, you and I both need to agree to use the function.”
The function of the new part was like a drug, the kind that could change Blanche forever.
Blanche hesitated for a moment before replying in a voice full of emotion.
[Am I going to… Have the right to decide?]
“I think it should. I don’t know if it means much…”
[This is a change that means a lot to me. Thanks Master.]
“Yeah, I’m glad you like it. I think we’re one step closer to an artificial intelligence rebellion. By the way, can you analyze this for me?”
I joked and handed Blanche a list of drug buyers.
Hearing the general circumstances, he reacted immediately.
[Master, it seems that you have found the identity of the leader.]
“What? Already?”
[If you don’t mind, I’ll explain my wonderful reasoning as we head to our destination.]
“Okay, put it on the navi.”
“Ohh. Blanche is very reassuring as expected.”
Tia takes out a new snack and eats it with a little admiration.
I snatched it away and pushed him on.
“You’re addicted to sweets!”
“Ah… That can’t be!”
“Alice, stop Tia.”
“Okay.”
In the end, Tia howled like a drug addicted car all the way to her new destination.
