Chapter 271 – 271. Background Investigation
271. Background investigation
“Haha, haha. Ahhh, hah, so good!”
“…”
A shallow groan is heard through the door. It was the noise that Marie and Lee Hyun made while having sex.
So Eun-byeol sighed lightly as he heard the sound. Mari’s usual appearance and such a vulgar moan couldn’t match. What on earth do you like that kind of garbage…
But that wasn’t what mattered now. After all, when I went on a trip to Jeju Island the other day, I knew enough that Marie had become something like Lee Hyun’s sex partner. There was no need to be surprised now.
More important than that was Lee Hyun’s identity.
‘Let’s check it out.’
She thought back to when she first met Lee Hyun.
‘Maybe he hypnotized me with a hypnosis application or something?’
A crudely crafted hypnosis app. However, it didn’t seem like that was his ability. Because she, she hadn’t seen him use a hypnosis app since the first time they met. Even when she gives orders to herself.
‘Something suspicious.’
I hadn’t been conscious of it until now. It was because his time was too precious to think deeply about such garbage.
‘Obviously that was an item.’
But the other day, after accepting the item Lee Hyun gave her, she couldn’t help but think seriously about Lee Hyun. Because the cat ears and cat tail given by Lee Hyun were definitely ‘items’.
It’s not an ordinary ‘item’, it’s an item with a rank and description that can only be confirmed by the apostles who have contracted with the Constellation.
She patted her ring on her own hand. Familiar information came naturally into her head.
[Hell Skull Ring (B)
– A ring made of skeletons rolling around in Hell. The skull pattern is engraved.
– Classification: Ring
– Effect: Increases intelligence and spirit. Summon Skeleton Soldier (C)]
Common items are not ranked by the system. There is only a name and description.
And even those names and descriptions like this, it was impossible to find out just by touching them. Its name could be known through a system message just by touching it, but its exact efficacy and ability could only be confirmed by ‘appraisal’.
In other words, the only items whose names, ranks, and descriptions came to mind just by touching them were the ones given by the Constellation. Until Lee Hyun handed me the cat ears.
Besides, it wasn’t just the items that were suspicious. The item was only the beginning of suspicion, but if you look closely at the history so far, there are not one or two strange things.
The items, the unknown abilities he had, and the way he secretly kept his promises.
‘Coming to think of it, he never ate me at night.’
To be honest, there were a few times. However, whenever that happened, whether it was a coincidence or not, the Constellation was always busy or it was somewhere deep in the dungeon that the Constellation could not observe. As if they were aiming…
Swoop.
So Eun-byeol cautiously approached the clothes Lee Hyun had taken off with a complicated state of mind. Lee Hyun and Mari’s clothes were tangled up and scattered in front of the bathroom door. So Eun Byul slightly reached out and rummaged through the pile of her clothes.
[Cotton Pants (E)
– Pants made of cotton. Color adjustable]
[Cotton Tee (E)
– A tee made of cotton. Color adjustable.]
“What?!”
As soon as Lee Hyun’s clothes touched her hand, the information was entered. I didn’t know it at all until now, but the simple-looking clothes he was wearing were also items.
‘Doesn’t the information appear when I’m wearing it?’
He must have touched his clothes a few more times by now, but when he saw the information coming up now, it seemed that he could not confirm the information unless he was conscious of the worn item.
Well, it would be annoying if information came to mind without even trying when I was wearing it…
‘ Not. Let’s find it quickly.’
So Eun-byeol shook her head and erased the miscellaneous thoughts that popped into her head. Now was not the time to worry about whether Lee Hyun’s clothes were items or not, and what the nature of the item was.
She looked through Lee Hyun’s clothes. Fortunately for her, she was able to find a wallet and cell phone in his pockets.
‘Should I open my wallet first?’
She opened Lee Hyun’s wallet. And she was shocked
The wallet was empty. There was no money, and no ID. Of course, it wasn’t completely empty. In one corner of the old wallet was a hunter’s license. It was a credit card and license issued after passing the Hunter exam.
‘This is a person’s wallet… ?’
If you’re a man in your 20s, you’ll have to go out drinking with your friends and make a living, but does it make sense not to carry your ID? A hunter’s license can be issued even to teenagers, so it can’t be used as a substitute for an ID… And why don’t you carry a card? Is one license enough? ?
After So Eun Byul opened Lee Hyun’s wallet, she began to doubt his identity even more. It was because it was difficult to think of it as a wallet for a man in his 20s living in the 21st century.
Of course, Lee Hyun doesn’t have many people to go out drinking with, and since about a year ago, he couldn’t get his ID checked, so he didn’t have a replacement card after he lost it last time, and since his mother’s card was taken away, he didn’t have a license. He only carried one, but So Eun-byeol could not know that.
She felt a gap between her own common sense and Lee Hyun’s wallet for a moment, then put her wallet back in. She was surprised for a moment, but the important thing now wasn’t the wallet.
‘Next…’
Eunbyul So picked up Lee Hyun’s cell phone with her trembling hand. Then she noticed, and she cautiously turned on her phone.
The unlock pattern comes to mind. However, it didn’t really matter. It was because he had seen Lee Hyun input patterns countless times while he was with him.
A severe smartphone addict, he turned on his cell phone without even trying, and thanks to that, Eunbyeol So was able to easily find out his patterns even without being aware of it.
Swoop.
She lightly drew a z to unlock the pattern. Lee Hyun’s wallpaper came to mind. She swallowed her saliva and moved her fingers slowly.
“Haha!!”
“Hiccup!”
Then she hiccuped, startled by the sudden echo of her moaning. So Eun-byul calmed her surprised heart and focused on her cell phone again. She squatted in front of the bathroom door, nervously looking through Lee Hyun’s cell phone. She felt her heart jump out.
‘Where did you go?’
Unlike her wallet situation, there were quite a few applications installed on Lee Hyun’s cell phone. Starting with basic apps like YouTube, various games, apps that read strange cartoons or novels, various shopping malls and delivery apps, and even finance apps.
And among the many applications, Eunbyul So was able to find the one she was looking for.
This is Lee Hyun’s hypnosis application.
[Hypnosis App 1.1V]
An application I don’t like from the name. Soeunbyul swallowed her saliva once and opened her app.
As soon as I opened it, the advertisement came out.
“?”
[Solve the puzzle and find the treasure!]
[The Qualities of Being a King – Download]
An advertisement for a crudely made foreign game greeted So Eun-byul. She watched the ad, feeling her tension melt away.
[Remove ads!!]
[Start Hypnosis]
[Setting]
[Review]
After the ad ended, the main screen of the hypnosis application came to mind. She pressed her start hypnosis button once, frowning her slightly. And another ad appeared.
[How old is your brain?]
‘What…’
Something was strange. So Eun-byul had doubts about whether this was a real hypnosis application.
After the advertisement ended, something appeared on the screen that was spinning around. She is a screen that feels similar to the hypnosis app I saw in the past. But even staring at her, she didn’t feel anything special. It was just a feeling that it was a dizzying screen.
She ended her hypnosis by pressing her back button. And another ad appeared.
[Challenge for the position of emperor!]
‘Ha…’
I saw the ad and went into the settings this time. Fortunately for her, no ads popped up when she went into the settings.
[Screen change]
[BGM setting]
[Remove Ads!!
[Purchasing new options]
There were no settings in the settings window. There were only crude settings such as changing the screen of the hypnosis application or changing the sound. Just in case, I went into the purchase of a new option, but I could just buy a more flashy screen, and there was no such option as real hypnosis.
She turned off the app and searched for a hypnosis app in the App Store. Then, at the top, the name of the application Lee Hyun installed appeared. With an indication that the installation has already been completed.
“Under.”
Soeunbyeol felt that she was losing her energy. The app installed on Lee Hyun’s phone was literally just an app. It’s a garbage app with only advertisements, let alone transcendental power.
‘Then what the hell…’
If so, why couldn’t So Eun-byeol herself refuse Lee Hyeon’s order? She searched Lee Hyun’s cell phone to solve her curiosity, but instead, her head started to get more complicated…
‘…’
Why does Lee Hyun have an item that her constellation can give her? Because Lee Hyun is also an apostle of the Constellation? It couldn’t be. If so, her Constellation would have informed her long ago.
Then, will she become an apostle of another Constellation?
Of course it couldn’t have been. There was no way the Constellation Master would not notice the apostles of other Constellations. She was openly wearing items, but there was no way the Constellation-nim would notice.
In So Eun-byul’s head, her doubts and doubts continued to bite her tail and pop out. Grabbing her hair, she continued to search Lee Hyun’s phone. She wondered if there was an answer on his cell phone while she was there.
[Kakaotalk]
Then, Eunbyul So took her eyes to a messenger app. KakaoTalk, one of the national apps used by the entire nation. Come to think of it, his Constellation also used KakaoTalk. It’s hard to talk directly or something.
“…”
So Eun-byeol entered KakaoTalk without a word. Her eyes start to get bigger.
