Chapter 172 – Legal Murder (3)
The perpetrator Daniel’s family did not like the forced relocation order notified by Jeriel and me.
They strongly resisted with their eyes wide open as if they were going to eat me.
“Nonsense! Daniel is still underage. But to go to Hunter City where he doesn’t know anyone…”
“A minor who accidentally killed someone.”
When I add a little bit of expression, the impression of frowning.
Parents of perpetrators are especially vulnerable.
“It was literally an accident.”
“There is no guarantee that the accident will not happen again. Daniel was late in waking up, and he did not receive proper training in controlling his ability his as a hunter. That is why this accident happened.”
“You’ve already been sentenced to probation!”
“Recruitment management of the hunters is entirely under our jurisdiction. It is not confined to some kind of juvenile detention center, it is just a change of residence. This is not a punishment, but a measure to prevent recurrence.”
The parents, who run a factory in Everville, fiercely protested because they couldn’t move in with Daniel.
The child has already killed one person, and it is extremely sincere.
I wish I had cared about the victim like that.
While I was being meant to myself, Daniel, the person involved in the story, started talking behind me.
“Hunter City. Sounds like fun? I wanted to try the Hunter League as well.”
“You stay still!”
The type who thinks that if he goes to Hunter City, he will be able to get ahead immediately.
This is a look that newbie hunters who are drunk with power often show.
I quickly organized the story because I didn’t want to look ugly in many ways.
“This is a notice, not a request. A formal notice will be delivered tomorrow morning, and if you refuse, you have only two options.”
“Two?”
“Either entering the Hunter-only holding facility, or wearing an electronic anklet for restraining abilities… I can’t recommend both.”
The former is practically a prison, and the latter is very annoying in many ways.
Yeriel, who had been silent until now, calmed them down a little.
“I would have had to move my place of residence when I became an adult anyway.
“You can choose someone else’s place of residence… This is a free country!”
“Because people’s lives were arbitrarily taken. Because of these accidents, forced relocation measures are in place.”
Even if the same words are spoken by Yeriel, the great hero of mankind, it becomes more persuasive.
I’m a criminal hunter, so I have weak speaking skills.
We finished the notification like that and went back to the camper.
Tia couldn’t bring out the barbecue grill, but she was cooking various dishes using the cooking utensils inside the camper.
However, since he had no talent for full-scale cooking, he was limited to preparing ingredients.
As if Alice wanted to put Daniel in prison, she could n’t hide her motivation her even while eating dinner.
“Did you check the house?”
“Yeah, the house is nice.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Daniel’s family was living like the kings of Everville.
A splendid mansion built on a large lot.
The surrounding area was so shabby that it was a bit colorless.
He probably has several other businesses besides factories.
First, we need to figure out whether Daniel was really unintentional.
Alice looked at the data she had received from the police earlier.
“The victim died of excessive blood loss with a penetrating wound in the abdomen. It must have been very frightening and painful.”
“Alice, a picture like that on the table is a bit…”
“Oh sorry.”
“Alice is very nice. But let her go comfortably today.”
After a satisfying meal, what I took out was a small drone.
Oracle is under maintenance, so I’ll write this.
This equipment, which was produced by the company for investigation purposes, is absurdly high-performance.
“These days, drones are the trend in any field. I really like it even if the cost performance is good.”
“Master, can I pilot it?”
“Never.”
“Hey…”
Wei Ying.
The drone, which started flying quietly, eventually disappeared into the darkness of the night sky.
I watched the screen and skillfully operated the drone.
Now I’m used to this complex drone controller.
“But isn’t that an Xbox pad?”
“Usually drone controllers are much worse than Xbox pads. They have fewer buttons.”
Instead, the drone controller often has a small monitor for the camera, but…
I don’t need that because I’m looking at the screen on a large monitor.
Hunter City’s police also use drones quite often, as they also conduct drug-related investigations.
The drone hiding in the mansion of the night found Daniel without difficulty.
Even after killing one person, he was not self-restraint, and was enjoying a party with his friends to commemorate the end of the trial + moving to Hunter City.
There is a lot of beer as well as a lot of hard liquor.
“These bastards are guilty!”
“Calm down, Alice.”
Thanks to that, I stopped the half-blind guy and focused on their conversation.
The victim was gloomy and could have died, or Daniel would do well even after going to Hunter City… It’s not too crazy.
“This is unconditionally, you killed it on purpose.”
“There is a difference between not reflecting and intentionally murdering.
I’m still not sure either.
Around the time when I was patiently listening to the tongue-twisting sounds of drunken minors.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise of something breaking.
Clink! Wow Jangchang…
[Wah ha ha!]
“What, what?”
“Are these guys having a lot of fun?”
“I don’t know anything else, but I think forced relocation measures are essential.”
Daniel finally used his telekinetic powers to cheer them up.
As we were fed up, Yeriel muttered with a stiff face.
“This must be dangerous. Should I stop it? No, I don’t want to…”
“Well?”
Just then.
A sharp scream rose from the speaker next to the monitor.
[Keah!]
[Kyaaaaa!]
A fountain of blood seen from afar.
Daniel was attempting levitation using telekinesis and severely injured himself.
Magnetic flight is an advanced skill that even A-rank telekinesis hunters cannot easily try…
It’s strange that he didn’t get into an accident because he tried it while drunk.
“Wow! It’s bleeding so much!”
“Shall we call an ambulance?”
Seo Ji-yu hurriedly told me, but…
I couldn’t help but be conflicted for a while.
The investigation we are currently conducting is clearly illegal.
If caught, it will be very shattered.
Besides, I didn’t even want to save that Daniel.
It’s not like he was injured in some kind of accident…
He was sentenced to probation today, and he was injured after drinking and messing around.
During the probation period, the use of hunter abilities is strictly controlled, so if you look closely, you will have to be punished again.
As I was thinking about it, Alice asked Seo Ji-yu.
“When was Megan, the victim, taken to the ambulance?”
“Four, an ambulance arrived at the scene 15 minutes after the incident… But died during transport.”
“Then let us report at that time as well.”
“…”
You may find Alice a little unkind, but not reporting to the hospital is not a crime.
Besides, on the screen, he was already calling the hospital with trembling hands.
However, the wounds were so large and bleeding that Daniel died before the ambulance arrived.
It was a pretty uncomfortable ending to say that it was a cause and effect…
Quickly retrieving the drone, I spoke to Alice with a pale face.
“I don’t think the murder itself was intentional. It’s just that the kid was a bit of an idiot…”
“Is that so?”
“It happens.”
In the end, both sides died, so the case is forcibly closed.
The next morning.
After receiving the report, we left Everville, which became a funeral home.
The streets that were empty only yesterday were filled with flags and ribbons expressing condolences today.
“It’s an unsightly sight.”
Red, who was with Lini, muttered in disgust.
“Even the heroes who fought against us in the past were not treated like that.”
Normally, I would have scolded him, but…
This time, I felt the same way, so I had no choice but to respond cowardly.
“What’s the use of being treated after death?”
“…”
If Jeongseungjip’s dog dies, people say that Munjeongjeonseong is formed?
Daniel’s funeral home was exactly the same.
We left Everville leaving the largest church in the city behind.
In the slightly subdued atmosphere, only Tia chattered lively.
“Master! There’s a famous barbecue restaurant on the way back. Can’t we try it?”
“Is that so?”
“Ohhhhh! The owner is willing for some reason…”
“No. Let’s not go either.”
“No, don’t make fun of me!”
By the way, did you have a han for barbecue?
I decided to spend the day at the campsite while driving a car that could be used for camping.
The work ends ahead of schedule anyway, so there is plenty of time to spare.
By the way, what was Yeriel’s reaction earlier?
After all, does she not like humans?
Perhaps it was for me, not the victims, that she objected to Green Dust’s assassination efforts.
After belatedly noticing my gaze, Yeriel smiled silently.
I quietly went into the bedroom in the car heading to the campsite.
