Chapter 142 – Chapter 5 – Myoseolah (4)
At first, I thought the culprit who kidnapped Seol-ah was just a white-haired woman.
However, as a result of recalling my memories as much as possible, the part of the ear that was covered was very unnatural.
In other words, it meant that the culprit in this case was an elf…
‘Beyond having a relationship with the woman, the culprit himself was a master?’
This was a very painful problem.
Even if I’m in a state where I can use my attributes, it’s impossible to fight the Master.
Beyond that, having to deal with the body of a child like this without any characteristics.
‘I’ll turn around.’
Of course, it was not necessary to fight the culprit.
Should I try to prevent Seol-ah from being kidnapped from the beginning, or even if she gets kidnapped, I just have to run away with Seol-ah.
But the biggest problem is that it’s really difficult.
In the first place, what I knew was the result of Seol-ah being kidnapped, and I had absolutely no knowledge of the process of how she was kidnapped.
Of course, you have to do your best to be careful not to kidnap her, but it must be a problem that the possibility of solving it is very low.
She said yes, but she hasn’t even been kidnapped yet, so it’s funny to assume that she’s been kidnapped and prepare.
‘No, wait…’
The Seol-ah in her memory was clearly wearing a kindergarten uniform.
Then she was kidnapped on her way home from kindergarten…
She thought that if she did well, she would be able to figure out where she was being kidnapped.
‘The playground is quite close to the kindergarten. In other words, she is not in a position to kidnap her before that.’
If so, even if Seol-ah is kidnapped tomorrow, I can prepare for her by meeting Seol-ah in advance.
I don’t know if it’s possible, but it’s not like there’s no way to prevent being kidnapped.
At any rate, it was well worth the effort.
In the end, I had no choice but to find out what I could and pray that nothing special would happen until I met Seol-ah tomorrow.
Please stay safe.
“Ah, Eunhyuk’s older brother!”
“Hello. You’re having a bit of a mess today.”
“Hee hee, I added too much water and it became sticky!”
“You can add more soil.”
“But today I like goo!”
What do you want me to do?
Even as I was talking to her, my eyes went to the dirt marks on her chest in her kindergarten uniform.
There’s no way they sent me to kindergarten the next day without washing those dirt stains…
‘Is Seol-ah kidnapped today?’
The dirt mark on the chest was also present in Seol-ah, who was in the storage room in my memory.
So, it would not be unreasonable to say that Seol-ah was kidnapped on the way to her house today.
I only got a sense of what they were doing yesterday, but isn’t it too tight a schedule to be kidnapped the next day?
To be honest, it’s a bit too much.
“Seol-ah, is it okay if my brother plays with that bracelet?”
“Um? But if you play with this, your mother will scold you…”
“Isn’t your brother getting scolded? Let’s take the one I stole.”
The bracelet Seol-Ah was wearing must have the ability to track the location of her child using her magical powers.
But they’re not stupid, and they’ll break or strip all of that equipment and kidnap them.
Then, if you hide it as unobtrusively as possible, you should at least be able to find out the location of the warehouse.
It felt like insurance if Seol-ah couldn’t be prevented from being kidnapped.
I first checked the serial number of the bracelet and wrote it down.
I need to know this so that I can get movement data when Seol-ah is kidnapped later.
And unlike the size of Palji, he pulled out a very small size location tracker.
“Wow what is that?”
“Seol-ah. It’s a bit strange, but do you believe it?”
“Huh? Huh!”
“Can you swallow this? I’ll give you water to drink.”
“Eh, my mother said you shouldn’t eat anything?”
“I know, but this is okay to eat. Brother will take care of it.”
I dealt with it in such a way that if I got caught and her mother got scolded, it was all my fault.
It was fortunate that the lady believed in me quite a bit, and because of that, Seol-ah also believed in me well.
Anyway, if you swallow her location tracker like this, it will be difficult to notice her existence itself because of Seola’s awakening magic.
Of course, I don’t know if I use a machine that can be inspected precisely, but what criminal would expect a kindergartener to swallow a localization tracker inside his body and turn it on?
I thought this was definitely a catchy option.
By the way, her aunt said she just entrusted Seola to me and she didn’t go to the convenience store?
Why does she think she’s still not coming back?
“You have to stand!”
At that moment, I felt a very terrifying sensation.
After hiding the bracelet he had just disassembled in the soil, he started running with Seol-ah.
I noticed that it was strange because the lights of the CCTV, which normally should be working all the time, were turned off.
Aren’t you telling me that you’re going to commit a crime too openly?
‘Shit…!’
Fortunately, Seol-ah believed in me and did her best to run.
Even so, it couldn’t be faster than the speed at which the Awoken were chasing us.
Fortunately, there is a CCTV at the place we ran to, so we can’t kidnap them hastily…
Naturally, they were chasing us in real time by turning off the CCTV at the location we were fleeing from.
Perhaps the reason why the lady didn’t come back was because they used a method to lose consciousness after dropping it.
Because Seol-Ah shouldn’t leave her kidnapping scene in her memory.
“Keew!?”
“Brother!?”
“You damn kid. He’s strangely quick to notice.”
“Shut up, you trash…”
“Hmm… It’s a pity. He’s the type of guy I want to use as a toy. Even if the master told me not to touch anything other than the target. Are we really out of luck?”
“Kaak Tweet.”
It was intended to be provocative as much as possible and divert attention to me rather than Seol-ah.
If you realize that there is a restriction that you can’t touch anyone other than the target, Seol-ah, you should use it.
But she laughed at my provocation, picked up Seol-ah, and vigorously kicked me in the stomach.
“Cheuk!?”
“Eup, uhh! Uhhh!”
“For a cute kid like you to spit like that. Did you know that it’s only a reward? If you thought you could make people feel bad that much, you’d be mistaken.”
“Cool, fuck. It’s just because you’re a pedo bastard.”
“Hehe, I’ll be sure to come find you later if I get permission from the Master, okay?”
I wanted to see that crazy bitch somewhere, but in the future, it was a guy who committed a lot of crimes such as murder as an Awakener crime and went to prison for life imprisonment.
But, in fact, if I had been working under the master, I would have been living a normal life, talking to the master behind the scenes, since the words were life imprisonment.
When I thought that way, I felt very bad and I felt like I was screwed.
Fuck, is this country?
“Fuck it. I tried to adjust my strength, but it still hurts terribly.”
I spit out the clots of blood and headed for a nearby internet cafe as quickly as possible.
I thought it would be impossible to prevent the kidnapping, but I didn’t even expect that it would happen right in front of my eyes in this way.
If the incident happened as I remembered, it would mean that Seol-Ah will be fine until I go to find her, but…
‘Conversely, if the memories are the same, the master and I will face off one-on-one.’
It was too ironic a situation to hope that the memory would be reproduced.
I sighed and checked the location of the locator I fed to Seol-ah.
Fortunately, they were able to confirm that the position was moved normally, as if they had not expected that there was such a thing in their body.
‘I don’t think it goes that far.’
The signal started to slow down sooner than expected, and the signal suddenly cut off in a corner.
This is entering a space where the signal device created using magic is deliberately neutralized.
I know that he is popular as a crime prop along with radio wave blocking.
So, this is where they use it as their hideout…
When I checked the map, the building there was more like an abandoned factory than a warehouse.
It’s a bit of a strange place to call it a warehouse, but this is the most likely place right now, so I’ll start looking into it.
“First, let’s get the blueprints here.”
Of course, the information I could get was not all data on awakening-related crimes.
As far as I know, this password was set to be the same on all systems.
In common sense, there would be no reason to make a master password dangerously like this, but are all the guys who worked on security systems back then?
‘Wait master password?’
It was a word used to mean a password that could be used anywhere, but it felt strangely different when I thought it was related to the master.
What if the Masters made a loophole in the system like this to make it easy to access the data?
At this time, masters were not perfectly settled, so what if all masters needed to check key information even if it was a bit dangerous?
‘Currently, masters are hiding in the system well, so they reorganized while staying away from things with weak security?’
The things I thought about what kind of crazy head made it up and did something like this.
Realizing that, in fact, it was just aliens plotting to invade Earth was not a pleasant experience.
The fact that I had to use the same root password as them to save Seol-Ah from them honestly made me feel very bad.
I sighed and just uploaded related data such as drawings and photos of the abandoned factory.
And while looking at the attached picture, I was sure that Seol-Ah was taken here.
What I thought was a warehouse turned out to be a room in the corner.
‘Once Seol-ah is trapped in that room, the connected roads…’
After devising several possible routes, I immediately took a taxi to the vicinity of the abandoned factory.
Also, I bought a combination of ingredients that could create a smoke screen by causing a chemical reaction with as much medicine as I could get from my ship.
After that, I ran to the abandoned factory as quickly as possible.
‘As expected, they don’t give way easily.’
Of course, they weren’t fools, so they stood guard at all the doors through which people could enter or exit the abandoned factory.
Eventually, I started circling around the abandoned warehouse and looking for other holes.
After looking for a long time, I found a window with broken glass that allowed me to enter.
‘There’s no door nearby, so it seems there’s no one guarding it.’
Just in case, I threw a stone through the window to see the reaction, but it didn’t seem like there was anyone guarding it from the inside.
I went inside through the window, making as little noise as possible.
Fortunately, no one was in the room.
Breathing a sigh of relief, I try to find a way to the room where Seol-ah is locked up.
The materials piled up in the corner of the room caught my eye.
It was a pile of papers made up of ledgers and reports, and I briefly read the contents to see if there was any helpful information.
“Wow, crazy…”
However, what was written there was too absurd for me to feel.
