Chapter 79 – 79. The Magic Deprivation Squad
79. The magic deprivation class
“Arrived.”
A woman gets out of a large car. She’s in her uniform, her blue hair fluttering.
One of the magic detection class, her name is Kang Ye-eun.
“Ah, let’s go together!”
A man followed and got off. He took out some equipment from the back seat and ran to the woman. He, who is still interning with her, has followed her, spying on her legs from her darling, her boss.
“Come quickly. How long are you going to act like a slug?”
Kang Ye-eun took out her ID and showed it to the police. She and she went inside the police line and she started to scan the scene.
“Hmm. What do you think of this?”
“It doesn’t seem like a big deal for a large monster to rampage. Rather, it is similar to the scene where the villain went on a rampage, right?”
The man said, examining the scars left on the building and asphalt.
“This is a sword, no matter who sees it. Isn’t that a fingernail?”
“It must be a sword. Judging by the footprints left around him, he seems to have grabbed a weapon and swung it instead of just swinging his arms.”
“And, there are two types of footprints here. One big, one small.”
“Yes.”
“Then, are there signs that have nothing to do with the monster?”
“No, that’s not it. It was caught on CCTV.”
Kang Ye-eun played the CCTV video she had received in advance and showed it. The man saw it and grumbled.
“No, if there is something like this, I will show it to you.”
“Are you on probation right now? We should practice recognizing what will happen in a place without CCTV.”
“Yes.”
In the CCTV, a bizarre-looking monster and a woman wearing a mask were rampaging. The guys who fight each other by clashing swords and bodies. I couldn’t see the proper movement because the frame wasn’t good, but I could tell that the woman was pushing the monster.
“It is over.”
Phishung.
The monster flies out of the screen. Kang Ye-eun then showed another CCTV video.
“This is the problem.”
A monster stuck in the wall. A masked woman is seen walking towards him.
The moment the woman tried to suffocate the monster, the monster grabbed her sword.
The woman’s embarrassment can be felt through the screen. The monster draws a knife and grabs the woman. And disappeared without a trace.
“What, what is it?”
“It moved so fast that it couldn’t be captured in the frame. Or something like teleportation.”
After a short while, the surroundings suddenly began to glow brightly. A faceless angel appeared and illuminated the surroundings brightly.
After a while, the light disappears. As soon as the angel disappears, the street turns into darkness again. And the CCTV footage ended.
“You didn’t take a picture of the angel?”
“Because there are not many people taking pictures of the sky with CCTV. Anyway, do you know roughly what to do?”
“First, extract the magic pattern. What else can I do?”
“Do a background check on the people who live around here, especially the people who live in the villa where the monster is stuck.”
“Why?”
“That white masked guy. He’s never been taken around here since he disappeared from there. Most likely he lives around here. That guy.”
She left the job to the man and Kang Ye-eun headed outside.
“What are you going to do, senior?”
“I’m going to turn on the CCTV. Don’t you know It may have been filmed walking around.”
“Yes.”
Kang Ye-eun gets into her car. Through the frame accelerator in her car, she seemed to intend to quickly turn the CCTV.
“Then shall we do some work?”
The man installed various equipment on the floor. Then he warmed up for a moment, then covered one of his eyes with his hand and opened his eyes wide.
Whoops.
His eyes glow blue. It is his unique skill, the magic eye.
It is his unique skill Magic Eye that detects and embodies the characteristics and types of magic. With that skill alone, he entered the forensic team as a special hire.
“Let’s see.”
The mana sensed within the mana became tangible and soared. When and in what form the magical power was moved and manifested, it begins to be drawn.
Once in the battle itself, additional information beyond what was recorded on the CCTV could not be obtained. However, the effect of the magical eye did not end there. That much is information that can be obtained by ordinary sensing devices.
The most important ability in magic power was that it was possible to identify what kind of ‘skill’ the magic was generated by. His eyes could trace the reverberations of the system inscribed in magic.
‘What.’
The man felt embarrassed. Because there were not just one or two types of skills that came into his head.
‘To be hardened, hardened, wooden skin, hit hard, agile body movement, turn foot… No, how many skills are there?’
Something is strange. One skill that normal people have. At most, two or three. Does it make sense to have this much unique skill?
‘Maybe this is a bit dangerous?’
Perhaps, ‘creating a skill’ is a skill. Because there were all kinds of skills in this world.
The man wrote down the names of all detected skills. There was no point in comparing it with the database, but it wouldn’t hurt to write it down.
‘Let’s start by analyzing the magic pattern.’
The man activated the magic attribute analyzer. He senses the machine’s remaining magic power and begins to analyze the pattern. Organized data on the laptop connected to the analyzer comes to mind.
“Let’s see. One is a monster what is one There is an error.”
There are a total of two detected magical power patterns. One of them, of course, belonged to a monster. However, the other one did something odd. The program doesn’t detect it properly.
In that case, you have to do the analysis manually… No man had the ability to do that yet. He is on probation now.
‘I have no choice but to wait until the senior comes.’
Legitimate idle time. First of all, I had to analyze the pattern to contrast or not, but since the pattern analysis was blocked, I had no choice but to play.
The man wasted his time playing on his cellphone.
“Hey, are you done?”
“Ah, senior. This is an error in the middle.”
“What? Mr. Yay. Then you should have brought it sooner. Okay, please contact him first.”
“Yes? Who… Whoa!”
The man received the paper Kang Ye-eun threw.
[Yoo Ah
Current level 1 sidekick. Phone number 010-…]
“I was filmed hanging out with him and that white guy. I’ll see the error, so you can contact him. If that doesn’t work, ask for help from the Hero Association and bring it to us quickly.”
“Yes? Yes.”
The position of Kang Ye-eun and the man has changed. This time, the man went into the car and Kang Ye-eun came out and sat in front of the analyzer.
“Let’s see, one is a monster pattern and the other one is an error?”
First of all, the monster must be a white monster… Wait for a sec.
Come to think of it, something was strange. Kang Ye-eun felt that her head was confused for a moment.
‘Wait for a sec. Come to think of it, that white guy can’t be a monster.’
As a result of looking at the CCTV, I could see that the white guy was walking around too proudly for a monster, and he was even seen walking around with Yoo Ji-ah as a ‘sidekick’.
Looking at that, the probability that that white guy is a monster converged to almost zero. Rather than being a monster, it’s more reasonable to see him as a rookie sidekick trying to turn off aggro with a bizarre costume.
That means that the female side is the monster…
‘Oh, did I fall into confirmation bias without realizing it?’
I thought you’d judge just by looking at it.
Blaming herself for making a mistake that only beginners would make, Kang Ye-eun bit her lip. She hurt her pride a little.
“Senior~. I contacted him. Are you coming right away?”
“Coming? To here? There is no need for that.”
“I don’t know, I said he was coming and hung up right away.”
“Well, it doesn’t matter. Rather, turn on the CCTV and track down the woman. Where did this guy come from?”
“A mask woman? Yes.”
Kang Ye-eun gave the man her job and focused on the screen again.
First of all, there was a high probability that the wave on the monster side belonged to this woman. When she thought about it, she was a gigantic monster who suddenly appeared, an angel without a face, also had a female form.
After looking at it from a little distance, various circumstances point to the monster as this masked woman.
‘Then what’s the error?’
If so, then the magic wave with this error belongs to the white guy.
In general, there are two cases where an analysis program makes an error. The computer is broken, or there is no data in the database that can be compared with the field data.
It’s unlikely that the laptop I bought for more than 10 million won three months ago is broken, so it’s probably the latter. In this case, the only option was to perform the analysis manually.
Let’s see, what happened to the pattern so that the algorithm couldn’t analyze it?
“Hmm, what is this?”
It was definitely a pattern I had never seen before. It’s definitely not human, but it’s not monster’s either.
She pondered for a while as she rested her chin on her chin. She tried to find her answer by substituting various theories and formulas that popped into her head.
However, she couldn’t come up with an answer with the theories in her head. If I could have known that, the algorithm would have already found it.
The ability that only humans, not machines, have, theories and formulas, and intuition that sits on top of the monumental tower built by experience is the only way to analyze this magical pattern.
“Wait a minute, this can’t be…”
I thought and thought and thought. Then, all of a sudden, a hypothesis flashed through my mind.
The magic pattern analysis program is designed to analyze only humans, monsters, and beasts. Because anything else means nothing.
Monsters and things like that don’t go out anyway. Putting something like that is a waste of capacity.
‘Then…’
If so, one hypothesis can be formulated.
That this man was neither a human nor a monster, but something else.
And, as far as she knows, there is only one thing that is similar to a human but different. As soon as…
“Invaders.”
Kang Ye-eun felt a chill in the moment. She becomes chilly, as if the sweat from her body has suddenly cooled.
Invader is in the middle of Seoul.
