Chapter 780 – Apocrypha 283) the Chaser(182)
283) The Chaser(182)
It’s already been a month since I came to the common area with Nayeon. In the meantime, he helped Nayeon with her work at night and chased down a serial killer during the day.
“You bastard. You’re running away so damn well. Should I just come back with the main body?”
The pursuit of the serial killer was going through a difficult time as the only psychic power available was a body enhancer. Besides, as if he had noticed that I was pursuing him, there hadn’t been any recent murders by him.
If he came as a body, no matter how great he was, he would have no choice but to be caught by me. If you read the memory left at the murder scene and figure out the spirit of the bastard, you can catch him at once.
But it didn’t.
No, you can’t exactly do that.
This is because the body and doppelganger that can use the power of chaos must protect my women.
I’m in a lull now, but in the meantime, I’ve been fighting bloody with the ruling families. For reference, only the ruling families burst into blood. I don’t know when those who have hostility to me will try to take advantage of my weakness.
Besides, my enemies aren’t just the ruling families.
‘The New White Killer.’
A monster who gave up most of its body and soul and was reborn as a new being. He was also an opponent that could not be overlooked.
Even though he is human, he has superhuman abilities and has fought with me for a long time, so he knows what my weakness is.
He might kidnap my women while I’m away. Then he won’t try to blackmail me with my girls. Because he knows full well that threats don’t work for me.
If he’s the New White Killer, he’ll kill my girls the moment he kidnaps them. To give me a sense of pain and loss.
So, the main body and the doppelganger cannot leave my women’s side even for a moment.
“Then let’s go out today… Huh?”
The moment I was about to go out to patrol the neighborhood, my cell phone rang. The caller was the tiger man, Lee Ho-sik.
“What’s going on, Mr. Hosik?”
– Found the bastard!
“If he’s… That serial killer?”
-That’s right!
Without even having time to say hello, Lee Ho-sik informed me that he had found the serial killer. His urgent voice told me that the current situation was going urgently.
“Where are you now?”
-This is the pig gang’s zone!
“Okay. We’ll be there soon.”
The pig gang were the villains located right next to the area guarded by Lee Ho-shik’s gang. Unlike Lee Ho-sik’s gang, who are called villains but have strong vigilante tendencies, these were real villains. When bored, he is a vicious person who curses people.
Anyway, I hung up the phone and went straight to Nayeon’s room. When I knocked, Nayeon opened the door and came out.
“What happened to… Joe?”
It was Nayeon who habitually tried to say respectful words to me, but realized that this was not a room and corrected her tone.
“They say a serial killer has appeared. So let’s go there right now.”
“You’ll be fine on your own. But if you still need support, feel free to reach out.”
“Yes. Thank you, ma’am.”
If this were her room, she would have given her a deep kiss and left. It’s just a pity.
After I finished reporting to Nayeon, I immediately left the safe house and headed to the area where the serial killer was said to have appeared. After all, he realized that I was after him and moved to another area.
“Wow!”
“Hey you bastard! Run slowly!”
As he ran fast, people walking down the street screamed in fright. If you get hit by me, you get more serious injuries than if you get hit by a truck.
‘No fuss.’
It seems like he is running fast blindly, but he is driving safely on his own. Would I, a non-killer (?) Since birth, kill a stern person with a shoulder strap?
I ran with all my might and reached the territory of the pig gang. There was no need to contact Lee Ho-sik separately to ask where he was.
-Kyaaaaagh!
– Run away!
– A monster, a monster!
-Kuhhhhh!
It was because I could hear the screams of frightened people in the distance and the cry of Lee Ho-sik, who looked just like a tiger. I ran to where the commotion was happening.
Soon after, I saw an unidentified creature running swiftly over the building and Lee Ho-sik’s gang chasing after it.
The being Lee Ho-shik was pursuing was exactly the same as the information he gave me.
He was wearing no clothes, and his body was covered with short, yellow, brown, and white hair. Also, his tail, located on the side of his tailbone, was forked into three parts. He ran lightly over the building on all fours.
“Found.”
Let’s see your back! Serial exposure! No serial killer!
I jumped straight into the ground and ran into the serial killer running over the building.
“Stop it, you pervert murderer!”
“Kyaaang?!”
When I rushed from above, the serial killer who was lightly avoiding Lee Ho-sik’s gang freaked out. I swung my fist at him.
Quaang-!
The roof of the building split like a spider’s web. But they couldn’t catch the serial killer. Her reflexes and body movements were so good that in that split second, she turned and avoided my attack. It was a really flexible movement.
Me and the serial killer confronted each other on a rooftop.
“Wow, that’s bloody once in a while.”
As Lee Ho-shik said, he had the face of a cat. He had a scar across his right eye and burn marks all over his body.
“Karrrr…”
“Kyarreu? You don’t know how to talk? Or have you become a real beast?”
Standing on all fours, he lowered his stance and growled like a beast, alerting me. It seems that he is obsessed with the concept of a killer wearing a cat’s mask.
“Here you are Gentleman!”
As I and the serial killer were confronting me, Lee Ho-sik arrived on the roof before I knew it. His subordinates had a lot of experience like this, and skillfully cut off his escape route from the roof of another building.
“Kurrrr…”
Realizing the unfavorableness of the situation, Nome looked around his body for a route to escape. However, it was difficult to escape as Lee Ho-shik’s men were deployed everywhere.
“You did a really good job.”
“Nothing. I just did what I had to do.”
Lee Ho-sik who speaks humbly to my words, the more I see him, the more I like him.
“Would you like to catch it yourself?”
“Is that all right?”
“Of course. You’re the one who chased him all the way here.”
“Then I will not decline.”
It was Lee Ho-sik who chased down the serial killer long before me. Also, if it wasn’t for his contact, I would have been looking for him in the wrong place. So he conceded the serial killer to him.
Lee Ho-sik, who bowed his head to express his gratitude to me, stood in front of the serial killer.
“The time has come for you to pay for your sins.”
“Kyarrrr…”
The face of the serial killer facing Lee Ho-shik was filled with fear. Its appearance was similar to that of a cat seeing a tiger for the first time.
‘… What? It feels familiar from an unfamiliar serial killer.’
What is it? What? What smells so familiar?
Humans acting like animals… Beasts’ cries… Actions…
“… Cheetah Girl?”
The serial killer’s behavior was similar to that of one of my girls in Dark City, Cheetah Girl. The only difference is that Cheetah Girl has a human appearance, but that guy has a cat, and that’s more like a giant monster cat.
‘It was Dr. Krumola who created Cheetah Girl. And helping him…’
New White Killer.
Oh, should I say Shadow Killer? It was called the Shadow Killer back then.
Anyway, the scary thing about him is that he has a strong psychic power, but he is also smart. Unlike me, who solves problems with force, the New White Killer of the past is an evil guy who uses resourcefulness to send opponents to hell.
At the time, Dr. Crumola conducted research on creating artificial psychics and actually succeeded. Cheetah Girl was proof of that. And the smart New White Killer helped with that, so he must know how to create artificial psychics.
‘You’re here.
A clue to chase the New White Killer has finally appeared.
Of course, I can’t say for sure yet. Red Town has as many smart researchers as Dark City.
However, since there was no clue, it was better to pursue even this clue.
‘I should have that guy.’
I need to catch a serial killer and read his memory with the main body. Then the direction of the pursuit will become clearer.
“Kuhuhuhh-!”
“Kyaooooo-!”
While I was smiling, the battle between the tiger man Lee Ho-sik and the serial killer began.
I was terrified to see Lee Ho-sik, a serial killer who turned into a human tiger, but I didn’t give up my head calmly. A cornered mouse bites a cat.
And if the craving for survival was strong, the serial killer fought much better than I thought.
Lee Ho-shik, who charged like a tiger, swung his leg, and the serial killer nimbly backed away to dodge the attack. Then, after contracting his body like a spring, it ricocheted at Lee Ho-shik like a bullet and swung his forepaw.
Lee Ho-sik avoids the attack with back-tumbling and at the same time aims at the guy’s abdomen with his legs.
A serial killer who jumps up on the soles of Lee Ho-sik’s feet as he flies into his stomach.
The two seldom hit each other and continued a high-level battle.
It was then.
“I-hoshi-i-i-ik!!!!!”
“Huh?”
A man’s loud voice calling Lee Ho-shik echoed from under the building. Looking down, there were dozens of people and a tattooed pig squirming at the forefront. He was a big, fat man, like a real pig.
“You’re crazy at last! How dare you mess around in my district?! You’ll die at my hands today!”
I could tell who he was from the man’s cry. It was the [Pig], The villain who was said to rule this place.
“Huh!”
Contrary to his massive size, he jumped up to the roof of the building I was in with a single stomp of his foot.
“Oh, what a surprise.”
“Kwyehhh?!”
As the pig wearing a human mask got closer, I unknowingly slapped him and knocked him off. He let out a pig-picking sound and sprawled on the floor.
“Oh fucking surprise. No, ah fucking surprise. Didn’t you come in with the blinking key?”
“…”
I said to the pig that fell after being slapped. No, I was really surprised.
