Episode 24: Epinephrine.

“One. Two. Three. Four. Five.. What kind of villains are there so many.”

I counted the twitching villains as I lay on the floor scratching my head with my left hand and snapping my right hand up.

It was quite funny to see him convulsing slowly while showing the whites of his eyes.

Knock. Kdak.

Every time my fingers twitched, my mouth increased the number by one.

“Okay. The numbers are the same as before. Haetae!”

“Your brother!”

At my call, Hae-in immediately ran and clung to my side.

Something seems to be getting more frequent lately.

“Haein, you practiced hard for two days, didn’t you?”

“Yes!”

“Okay. Then I’ll ask you again.”

Haein smiled at my request and nodded, then knelt down in front of the man who had fainted in the far right among the villains.

Haein closed his eyes and held out his hands.

I felt an unknown energy in my outstretched hands, and that energy crawled out into reality as it materialized.

A long, thin string of light, like a complicatedly twisted wire, slipped out of Haein’s hand and crawled toward the man.

The line that went like swimming through the air soon reached the man’s head.

“Uh…Uhh…”

The line and the man’s head met and were connected.

Haetae is a legendary beast who distinguishes between good and evil.

Befitting a villain with the nickname Haetae, Haein started searching through the man’s memories skillfully.

Dig the complex structure of the brain and step into it to find the information you need.

The line connected to the man’s head squirmed and squirmed to indicate the difficulty of the task, and whenever the line twitched, the man’s entire body trembled violently.

I watched the wriggling scene for a moment, then turned my head to Haein.

Haein moved the line calmly and penetrated the man’s brain.

The door to the brain will be firmly closed.

Name is the most important software that moves humans, but if it is easily penetrated like a machine, nothing would be as futile as that.

That’s why people use profiling, hypnosis, etc. To try to open a solid gate that will never open.

There is also a method of harassing the hardware through torture-like methods so that the hardware directly releases the software, but that is time-consuming and inefficient in many ways.

“……”

Haein gently closed his eyes and waved his hands in the air as he grabbed a twisted skein that only he could see.

Release the thread.

The untied skein of thread is put together and a key is made.

Haein pretended to insert a key into the hole.

You really do it that way. That’s interesting..

Haein unlocked the door with the key.

I pushed up the bolt on the tightly closed door.

The door that should never have been opened allowed me to enter so easily.

“Ah…Ah…Ahhh…!”

The man who revealed his inner self was ashamed of himself, twisting his body unconsciously, expressing his intention of refusal.

As the door protecting his existence is opened and his ego and memories are washed away, an unpleasant and disgusting feeling of being exposed in detail will spread throughout the man’s body.

It must have been a natural reaction since the minimum defense mechanism to protect one’s inner self and existence was so easily destroyed.

But what about this?

You have no choice.

I kept my eyes on Haein, ignoring the man who was flipping over and flapping his arms and legs like a bug trying to get up.

Haein still closed his eyes and penetrated deeply into the man’s inner world.

Now that you have successfully entered, it is time to do what has been done a lot in the past.

What?

Of course, it’s plunder and abuse.

Haein’s slowly churning hands began churning the air faster and faster.

As if doing a more complex and delicate work, all fingers were spread out and complex movements began.

..But it seems like the way you move your hands is sly. It must be because of your mood.

Haein waved his hand.

It penetrates into the deepest part of the inner world.

Find out all the information and loot it.

We sift out information related to us and burn it to remove traces.

And it creates a memory that has no chin to exist, fits it exquisitely, and gives a justification for the situation.

“Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh”

The man expressed his disapproval by wriggling his body from time to time.

As if this is cowardly and illegal.

But what?

In fact, it is cowardly and illegal.

But what are you going to do?

What can you do?

What can I do besides lying on the floor and wriggling like an earthworm?

I looked down at the man who was struggling in the wrong line.

“..Whoa.”

Haein finally opened his eyes and finished his hard work.

“Whoa. I’m done. How many people are left now?”

Haein asked with a bright smile, and I answered with a bright smile.

“19 People.”

“…..”

The smile of hope disappears and an expressionless expression of despair takes its place.

But then what?

What are you…Ah, isn’t this?

“I’m sorry, Haein. Please suffer a little.”

I comforted Haein, who was in despair, and Haein showed signs of not wanting to do it, but turned to the rest.

Okay. All that’s left is…

Like Haein, I turned around and walked towards the ‘thing’.

Familiar faces could be seen standing guard around the heap of boxes.

“Crow, are you ready?”

“Yes. I’ve already prepared the contract.”

Crow waved the contract he was holding in his hand and held it out to me.

“Okay. Now let’s make some money.”

I placed the scorched-black contracts on top of the boxes and stepped back.

Clean up your voice and anticipate what will happen soon.

“Perform the contract.”

Like water overflowing from a bathtub, the black mist that abruptly escaped from the contract and began to overflow soon enveloped all the boxes.

Like a fog that embraces the earth and contains the dew of dawn.

Like a midday cloud that embraces the heat of the clouds instead.

The black smoke surrounding the boxes roamed around the boxes and soon began to be sucked back into the contract.

“Is it…?”

When the smoke completely disappeared, Crow approached with a curious expression and tried to open the box.

However, there is nothing good about Crow’s traces here.

“I’ll open it.”

I slightly stopped Crow and opened the box instead.

“..Oh. Did it change well?”

Inside the box were dozens of syringes, individually wrapped.

“How much trouble did we have to prepare for this..”

Crow looked at the syringe and stepped back again, resting his head on his head as if he was dizzy.

“Hmm. Looks like a good change. Let’s go back when Haein finishes the work. The next deal will probably be in 3 days.”

“Okay.”

Crow answered briefly and began muttering in a low voice.

“Now, how much money can I get if I sell that drug… I don’t know. The boss doesn’t like it, so stop selling it… Then what to do with that many drugs..”

..Is it because I spend a lot these days?

Crow’s misogynistic side of money is seen a lot these days.

Should I tell you about a stock that is going to rise soon?

I glanced at Crow and checked the progress of Haein’s work.

The speed is accelerating as if he has started to become proficient now.

It infiltrates at high speed, digs up information, gathers memories about us, and burns them.

It’s like ‘hacking’ people.

..After.

I looked up at the sky for a moment.

The moon, which absorbs the light from the sun in the morning and scatters it when it’s dark, was still floating in the sky, scattering light toward us.

As I looked at the moonlight shining on me, thinking I was hiding in the dark, a feeling of guilt creeped up on me for some reason, but I ignored it and looked up at the sky.

Butterflies were flying in the sky, carefully flying around as if they were wary of their surroundings.

A spectacle was unfolding above the sky, reflecting the moonlight as the wings of butterflies fluttered in various colors.

And what this means is that… Xiao is doing a good job.

It is said that he shares his vision with the butterfly he summoned…I haven’t seen that in the original work.

Maybe it’s because in the original story, she exited before Xiao showed her full abilities.

I looked at the landscape created by the flying butterflies for a moment.

“..Brother…Brother…”

?

Someone called me and grabbed my sleeve.

“Haein..Ah?”

“Ahhh… It’s hard… This…”

Haein was leaning towards me almost as if he was tired.

“Are you done?”

“Yes… I’m done.”

I carried Haein on my back as he tried to cling to my back.

Every villain’s ability has flaws.

For example, Crow can do all sorts of things through the ability called ‘Contract’, but there is a big drawback in that he uses his ability through vitality.

And in Haein’s case, he uses his physical strength as a medium to use his hacking ability. In the case like now, since you hacked so many people, you can think of it as running for about 10 minutes at full speed.

“..You worked hard, Haein. Close your eyes.”

“No.. Not sleepy… Cool…”

Not sleepy.

Hacking must be over.

“Crow! Shao! Let’s go back! Before the brush comes!”

I walked away shouting that.

“Are you going already?”

Crow walked up behind me before I knew it and asked.

“I have to go now. There’s nothing good about running into a brush.”

“It doesn’t.”

I glanced down at my left shoulder.

A beautiful little butterfly was clinging to my shoulder, tucking up its weary body and folding its aching wings.

New fluid. New fluid.

And the regular breath of Haein on my back was hitting my ears.

..It’s exhausting.

Now you sabotaged the first deal.

I let out a small sigh and continued walking.

Non-stop.

Continued.

*******

“..Turn it off…”

A man rose from his seat with a sleepy groan.

The chair the man was lying on also squealed and groaned in pain, and the man muttered as he stood up from the chair.

“Sleeping. I’m old too.”

With somehow stiff shoulders, the man opened the door and went out.

“Are you awake, bro?”

“..Uh. Are you ready?”

“I finished it right away. But the kids seemed to be all asleep as if they were tired. It must have been a lot of work yesterday.”

“…?”

The man looked at the man speaking in front of him and said.

“Did we stay up all night yesterday?”

“What are you talking about? You had a lot of work yesterday, so you had to stay up all night with the kids.”

“..Ah. I did.”

“Oh, you must be very tired. The butcher is coming soon to trade. Let’s go.”

“..Yes.”

The man scratched his head and tilted his head curiously.

The man and his men returned to the trading place.

Going back to the trading area, many boxes were piled up in front of the black car, and many people were standing around and guarding the boxes.

And on the other side of it stood a car painted black like a car with boxes stacked on it.

“No crazy! You’re here already dude!”

The man saw the car and hurried to stand in front of the box.

Drreuk.

As soon as the man stood in front of the box, the car door opened.

Ttogak.

A woman’s long legs were revealed from inside the car.

Above her pure white legs were moderately strong thighs, covered with an intense red dress.

A woman in a red dress came out of the car and slowly approached the man.

Ttogak. Again. Again.

The man swallowed his saliva as the woman’s figure slowly drew closer.

Ttogak. Again.

A woman finally arrived in front of the man.

The woman lowered her sunglasses slightly and examined the man and the box.

“What’s so hard about it? All we have to do is bring money back and forth between us. Kids! Pack your things!”

As the woman shouted, the huge men got out of the car the woman was riding in and started loading the boxes into the car with violent hands.

“Really, why are you so stiff? Seeing an executive for the first time?”

The woman smiled and lightly tapped the man’s lower back, and the man instinctively pulled his back slightly.

“Hmmm. I’ll send you the ‘goods’ tomorrow. Here’s the money.”

The woman hummed her song and pulled a thick envelope of money from her bosom.

“..Thank you, executive.”

“It’s not even a butcher, but what about an executive. Just call me sister.”

‘Crazy. Why are executives here…’

The man thought as he quickly wiped the cold sweat that had flowed down before he knew it.

But the woman didn’t care whether the man was nervous or not, and just hummed to herself.

“Why did the boss leave me alone. I took the other kids with me.”

The woman grunted and headed back to the car.

“I’m tired, so let’s go quickly, kids!”

“Yes, sister.”

The woman got back into the car and gestured toward the man.

“See you again next time~”

“Go take a look!”

The man leaned over as if he were about to fold his body in half.

Cold sweat was scattered in the air, and the woman smiled as if it was funny seeing the man like that.

Booooong.

The car pulled away, and the man let out a sigh of relief.

“..Why the hell is the executive here?”

*******

“Hmm~. Cool for a summer night~.”

A huge man sitting next to the woman opened the car window wide and breathed in the summer night air.

“Sister. There is a risk of being caught, so close the window…”

“Ah, I know. Wait a minute… Um?”

The woman who smiled at the window suddenly raised her body slightly.

“..Sister?”

“..Did you find a lady to put in my bed today?”

Beyond the window was a woman walking down the street at night in the moonlight.

Haljjak.

The woman wet her lips with her tongue and spoke to the man.

“Get that woman. This is a chance to test the effects of this drug.”

“..I understand.”

When the man who received the woman’s order beckoned, the car stopped and the man got out of the car with his huge body.

Dubuck. Tboob.

The man walked toward the woman casually.

“Ah! What’s going on?”

The woman was on the phone and unfortunately she did not recognize the man.

And the woman’s carelessness.

“Ah. So…uuu?!”

The unfortunate result was kidnapping.

Hook.

The needle of the syringe went into the woman’s throat.

The cold needle became hot as it received the hot woman’s blood.

Wow wow.

The medicine was poured right down the woman’s throat.

“Oooh…! Ooh…!”

The man who injected the drug into the woman started counting in his mind.

‘5. 4. 3. 2. 1.’

0.

The man counted all the numbers in his mind and turned around.

But.

“Whoops! Whoops whoops!”

The woman’s resistance intensified.

“What…?!”

The man was taken aback by the sudden strength of the woman.

Vines sprouted from the woman’s slender arms.

From noble mtl dot com

The woman’s breathing became more rough.

The temperature of the woman’s body is rising.

The body began to react to the drug that entered it.

“What the hell…?!”

Women’s power has not yet reached the level of reaching men.

The man couldn’t help but be taken aback by the woman’s behavior, which began to run amok like a mad dog.

“Hey hey hey…!”

“Keep it off!”

Finally, the woman’s sharp teeth bit into the man’s hand.

“…Why is that?”

And the woman in the red dress who was watching this scene from the car frowned as if it was strange.

********

“Boss. But I have a question.”

“Huh?”

As I was walking home, Crow asked me a question.

“What did you swap the medicine with earlier? I’m suddenly curious.”

“..Ah. That.”

I pondered for a moment.

What was that?

“Ah! Epinephrine stimulants!”

“…?”

I said it, but Crow still tilted his head in disbelief.

…Ah.

“…Well. Adrenaline is better known.”
