Villain Police Lee Jin-woo - Chapter 325

Episode 325. A New Life

To order murder in this situation is crazy.

Of course, Jang Min-sik tried to refuse.

But Cho Hak-ju’s words were faster than that.

“If it weren’t for Lee Jin-woo, your younger siblings would be my companions on the journey to the afterlife.”

Brothers, it means the hunting dog that went with Jang Min-sik.

As Jang Min-sik’s eyes grew stronger, Jo Hak-ju’s voice continued.

“You know? I have a hunting dog that I brought in from abroad. And that hunting dog is hanging around those brothers that you love.”

Jang Min-sik couldn’t say anything.

He was just glaring at Jo Hak-ju.

However, Jo Hak-ju approached Jang Min-sik with a faint smile on his face and continued speaking.

“Did you think I came here to vent my frustrations on you?”

“… … !”

“Just kill Lee Jin-woo. Then, your younger siblings will be safe.”

After his older sister died, Jang Min-sik lived with Jinbaek’s hunting dogs as if they were his own younger brothers.

That was also the reason why Shin Jeong-tae, who was a senior member of the hunting dogs, was let go without any retaliation when he left the organization.

I was hoping that Shin Jeong-tae would live happily.

But to kill those hunting dogs… … .

This is when Jang Min-sik’s eyes start to shake.

Cho Hak-ju’s voice continued.

“Aren’t hunting dogs like family to you?”

It was when Jang Min-sik clenched his fist so hard that it bled.

I heard the sound of a car stopping outside the window.

I could tell who was there without even looking.

It’ll be Jinwoo and the police.

They were the only ones who came here.

This is because Jang Min-sik told Jin-woo that Jo Hak-ju was coming here.

And that was what Cho Hak-ju had expected too.

Cho Hak-ju opened his mouth in a leisurely voice as he filled his glass.

“The prey has arrived.”

***

Meanwhile, outside the villa.

Jinwoo let out a small sigh as he approached the villa with Kim Jaehyuk.

Now, all we have to do is catch Cho Hak-ju and handcuff him.

Then, it’s all over.

It will put an end to a long fight.

Jinwoo clenched and unclenched his fists and walked.

But then, it was then.

The door to the villa opened and a person appeared.

That person is Jang Min-sik.

Jang Min-sik was standing there guarding the door.

And the moment he saw Jang Min-sik, Kim Jae-hyuk’s expression turned fierce.

“Jang Min-sik?!”

But Jinwoo was different.

This is because Jinwoo knew that Jang Minsik had turned away.

And Jang Min-sik had a promise with Jin-woo.

It was said that after arresting Cho Hak-ju, he would turn himself in.

So Jinwoo approached Jang Minshik nonchalantly… … .

“You can’t go in.”

Jinwoo’s expression was filled with doubt at Jang Min-sik’s voice.

Then Jang Min-sik’s voice continued.

“sorry.”

Jang Min-sik’s desperate voice… … .

Jinwoo felt that there was something going on with Jang Minsik.

But there was no time to think.

Jang Min-sik’s fist was suddenly fired.

Shhh!

Jinwoo barely escaped.

Jang Min-sik’s fist passed by Jin-woo’s cheek.

but.

Bam!

Jang Min-sik grabbed Jin-woo’s neck and squeezed him.

A monstrous evil force.

“Ugh!”

As Jinwoo’s eyes turned red, Kim Jaehyuk, who had come closer, punched Jang Minsik in the eye and cheek.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

Jang Min-sik had to let go of Jin-woo’s neck, which he was holding onto, and had to step back without realizing it.

Kim Jae-hyuk rubbed the back of his neck tightly as he watched Jang Min-sik like that.

And then he opened his mouth while looking at Jinwoo.

“Lee Jin-woo, go in and arrest Jo Hak-ju.”

“Inspector!”

Jinwoo tried to stop Kim Jaehyuk.

I admit that Kim Jae-hyuk is a monster, but Jang Min-sik is more than that.

So Jinwoo thought that it would be impossible for Kim Jaehyuk to take on Jang Minsik alone.

But Kim Jae-hyuk’s eyes were already determined.

Kim Jae-hyuk turned his gaze towards Jang Min-sik and opened his mouth.

“I have a grudge to settle with that guy.”

Kim Jae-hyeok’s beloved police officer younger brother was murdered by Jang Min-sik.

Kim Jae-hyuk wanted to get revenge, but he has failed so far.

“Let’s end that bad relationship today.”

That is the moment when Kim Jae-hyuk’s voice ends.

Kim Jae-hyuk ran towards Jang Min-sik and threw a punch at him.

But the opponent was Jang Min-sik.

Jang Min-sik easily dodged the attack and punched Kim Jae-hyuk in the face.

Kwaaaaang!

But Kim Jae-hyuk was no pushover either.

He gritted his teeth and grabbed Jang Min-sik’s waist with both hands.

And then Kim Jae-hyuk picked up Jang Min-sik and threw him away.

Bang bang bang!

Jang Min-sik rolled on the ground.

Kim Jae-hyuk did not miss that split second and ran at incredible speed, hitting Jang Min-sik in the head like a soccer ball.

Kwajijijik!

Jang Min-sik rolled around on the ground several times.

But Kim Jae-hyuk’s attack didn’t stop there.

He ran again to trample on Jang Min-sik.

But this time, Jang Min-sik was faster.

Jang Min-sik, who stood up in a hurry, punched Kim Jae-hyuk in the face.

Oh my god!

But Kim Jae-hyuk laughed sinisterly as if he wasn’t shocked.

And then he hit Jang Min-sik in the face with his elbow.

Kwajijijik!

A literal battle of monsters.

Those monsters were throwing their fists at each other, trying to kill each other.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

It was brutal, and both men’s fists were filled with sorrow and resentment.

***

At that time, inside the villa.

The atmosphere there was different from the brutality outside.

A soft piano sound could be heard from somewhere.

The place where the piano sounds flow is the second floor.

There, Jo Hak-ju was seen drinking whiskey and listening to music.

And when Jo Hak-ju put down his glass and turned his gaze, Jin-woo was standing there.

Jo Hak-ju looked at Jin-woo and opened his mouth in a quiet voice.

“As a child, I suffered from poverty and hunger, and was discriminated against because I was an orphan.”

“… … .”

“Decades have passed, but South Korea has not changed. Even now, when it rains, there are children who have to carry water, and there are people who are starving. I wanted to save those people.”

“… … .”

“And to achieve that goal, I had to use whatever means necessary. That’s why I went to see my friend… … Jo Hak-ju and even changed my status. I thought that was the only way I could get my hands on the money Baek Dong-ha had… … .”

But Cho Hak-ju’s voice could not continue.

Because Jinwoo let out a hollow laugh.

“Criminals always have excuses. This is why I committed a crime. This is why I had no choice but to commit a crime. But that’s all bullshit. You just committed a crime.”

Cho Hak-ju shook his head.

And then he filled his glass with whiskey again and opened his mouth to Jinwoo.

“It’s a crime… … It’s called a crime because it failed. If I had succeeded, everything I did would have been justified.”

Jinwoo took out the handcuffs from his bosom.

Because there is no reason to listen to bullshit.

And Jo Hak-ju, who was looking at Jin-woo like that, smiled and continued speaking.

“Do you think you can catch me?”

“… … ?”

“You can’t catch me.”

“… … !”

“If I have sinned, then it is I who can punish that sin.”

What happened next happened in an instant.

Jo Hak-ju took out the medicine from his bosom while smiling at Jin-woo as if he was the winner.

And Jo Hak-ju tried to pour the medicine into his mouth.

But Jinwoo was faster.

Jinwoo ran towards him and grabbed Jo Hakju’s arm.

Then Jinwoo broke Jo Hakju’s arm and opened his mouth while slamming Jo Hakju’s body on the table.

“Listen carefully. I am the one who gives the punishment.”

“Let go!”

“The crime of deceiving Baek Dong-ha. Accept it sweetly from now on.”

“……what?!”

“Then, I will give you my final report. The children here are not the Chairman’s children.”

It was a sudden remark.

But Jo Hak-ju opened his eyes wide.

The words flowing from Jinwoo’s mouth right now.

That was what Jo Hak-ju said a long time ago when he saw Baek Dong-ha’s last moments.

Jo Hak-ju looked into the empty space with his eyes wide open.

“Uh, how… … .”

Cho Hak-ju couldn’t understand the current reality.

In the meantime, Jinwoo’s voice continued.

“Yoonseong, Cheolyeong, and Seoyeon, they are all my children!”

“… … !”

“I’m not joking at this point. It’s true. They’re all my children!”

Cho Hak-ju struggled to get up from the table.

But Jinwoo pressed Jo Hakju’s body harder and whispered in a low voice.

“I will accompany you on your final journey as I have served you for half your life. Please go quietly.”

Cho Hak-ju’s eyes began to tremble.

“… … Ship, Baek Dong-ha?”

Jinwoo opened his mouth with a creepy smile at that dull voice.

“That’s it, your life is over. Whether you hire a judge or whatever, you’re going to live in a hell you can’t escape from.”

“… … !”

“Spend eternal time of reflection on the cold cement floor of the prison.”

“… … !”

“So, let’s go quietly, Hakju.”

With those words, Jinwoo put handcuffs on Jo Hakju’s wrists.

Crunch!

A cool sensation on the wrist.

The strength left Cho Hak-ju’s legs.

And at the same time that Jo Hak-ju’s eyes turned bloodshot, a vain voice flowed from his mouth like a groan.

“ah…….”

Cho Hak-ju realized that everything was over.

Just like Jinwoo said, I realized that the rest of my life was like hell.

Now I can’t even kill myself.

You will have to spend eternity in a prison cell.

It was only in an instant that the groans that came out of Jo Hak-ju’s mouth turned into screams.

“Ahhhhhhh!”

***

“The prosecution has decided to form a special team to cooperate with us regarding the Jin Woo-ryeong and Cho Hak-ju gates.”

It was a coffee shop in a hospital in Seoul.

There, Jinwoo and Team Leader Kim Ilho were sitting across from each other, waiting for the coffee they had ordered.

And Team Leader Kim Il-ho continued speaking, folding his arms.

“The special team leader is a prosecutor named Kim Seo-jin. He is not politically biased and is quite competent, so you can trust him.”

“… … .”

“Since Jang Min-sik is testifying to everything, Jin Woo-ryeong and Jo Hak-ju won’t be able to do anything.”

Jinwoo nodded silently.

Then Team Leader Kim Il-ho continued speaking.

“And the judge is Lee Han-young, a man of strong conviction in the legal community, so it is expected that a heavy sentence will be handed down.”

It was even revealed that Cho Hak-ju had colluded with foreign gangsters.

Medium is the natural future.

It is a situation where even the death penalty can be expected.

“But… … there’s something strange.”

Jinwoo tilted his head.

“Is something strange?”

“Cho Hak-ju is saying nonsense that Officer Lee Jin-woo is Chairman Baek Dong-ha… … . It doesn’t seem like he’s trying to get a reduced sentence by saying he has a mental illness… … .”

Jinwoo smiled faintly.

“I guess you’re crazy.”

At that moment, the coffee I ordered came out.

Jinwoo and Team Leader Kim Ilho headed to the hospital room holding coffee.

Kim Jae-hyuk was lying there.

Kim Jae-hyuk asked while accepting the coffee.

“Is it sweet?”

“Yes. I asked for the sweetest one.”

“Coffee has to be sweet to taste good, hehe.”

Last time, Kim Jae-hyuk won the fight against Jang Min-sik.

When Jinwoo went out of the villa again, the person standing there was Kim Jaehyuk.

Kim Jae-hyuk was smoking a cigarette with a bloody face.

Kim Jae-hyuk turned his gaze towards Jin-woo as he remembered that time.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Jinwoo smiled and nodded.

The lawyer’s meeting room in the detention center.

There, Jinwoo was sitting across from Jinwooryeong.

Jin Woo-ryeong, without makeup, just looked haggard.

He was just an old man.

Jinwoo opened his mouth as he looked at Jinwooryeong.

“You too will be sentenced to death, just like Jo Hak-ju.”

Cho Hak-ju was sentenced to death.

I don’t know when the execution will take place, but just like Jinwoo said, I will have to stay in a cold prison until I die.

“You have come to the place where you were meant to be, so accept your sins.”

Jinwoo-ryeong laughed like crazy at Jinwoo’s dry voice.

“I’m Jinwooryeong… … .”

“… … .”

“I’m Jin Woo-ryeong!”

Jin Woo-ryeong screamed at Jin Woo.

But that too was just ugly.

It was all over, and he was still looking crazy, drunk on past glories.

Jinwoo smiled quietly as he watched the scene.

“Yes, you are here because you are Jinwooryeong.”

***

“… … You want me to be the president?”

It was a spacious Korean restaurant.

Oh Myeong-hun blinked and asked back at Jin-woo’s sudden request to become the president of Jinbaek.

“……I?”

“I think Baek Seo-yeon and Baek Cheol-yeong need more experience. It wouldn’t make sense for me to suddenly sit in that position.”

If Jinwoo suddenly steps into management, the directors will not follow his words.

There is also a high possibility that there will be serious backlash.

So Jinwoo took a step back and decided to watch over Jinbaek through Oh Myeonghoon.

“Since Baek Cheol-yeong and Baek Seo-yeon have also readily agreed, you can sit down without any trouble.”

At Jinwoo’s words, Oh Myeonghoon snickered and put a cigarette in his mouth.

“I’ve heard of the Pants President, but this is the first time I’ve heard of the Pants Chairman.”

“… … .”

“But, are you going to continue being a police officer?”

Jinwoo nodded his head slightly.

“I guess it will be like that for a while.”

Although I started my life as a police officer against my will, I am now enjoying it quite a bit.

I wanted to enjoy this life a little more.

“You might be the richest police officer in the world.”

When Oh Myeong-hoon snickered and exhaled cigarette smoke, Jin-woo smiled brightly and lifted his glass to his lips.

Jo Hak-ju and Jin Woo-ryeong’s lives were over, but for Jin Woo, it was the beginning of a new life.

But before that, there was something I had to finish as Baek Dong-ha.

***

The next day.

Jinwoo’s car stopped in a rural village in Gangwon-do.

However, Jinwoo got out of the car and couldn’t do anything for a while.

All I could do was stare blankly ahead.

The place Jinwoo is looking at is a small, old house that looks like it could collapse at any moment.

That’s when some time passed.

The door to the small house opened and I saw Baek Dong-ha’s niece Baek Yoon-ha come out.

“Are you here?”

Baek Yoon-ha was actively working as a city council member in Seoan City.

Baek Yoon-ha approached Jin-woo with a big smile and continued speaking.

“Please wait.”

The person waiting for Jinwoo is Baek Yoonha’s father.

So, he was the younger brother that Baek Dong-ha had no choice but to kick out due to Jo Hak-ju’s scheme.

Jinwoo let out a deep sigh and walked towards where his younger brother was waiting.

And after a while, Jinwoo was able to sit down with his younger brother.

‘You’ve aged so much… … .’

Jinwoo’s eyes turned red when he saw his younger brother.

I felt a pang of regret inside.

I felt my heart break as I thought about all the hardships you must have gone through.

That’s when Jinwoo was holding back the tears that were welling up in his eyes.

My brother asked a question.

“Why did you want to see me?”

Jinwoo opened his mouth with a forced smile.

“Chairman Baek Dong-ha sent me.”

“… … !”

“Chairman Baek Dong-ha asked me to convey his apologies.”

“… … !”

“I’m sorry it’s only now that I’m telling you this.”

Jinwoo’s sincere voice made his younger brother’s eyes turn red.

***

A few days later.

Jinwoo visited his mother’s grave in Yangpyeong.

‘Mother… … My useless son Dong-ha is here.’

When he first started living as Jinwoo, he looked in the direction of his mother’s grave and made a promise.

When I come back here, everything will be destroyed.

And now, just as he had promised, Jinwoo has destroyed Jo Hakju and Jinwooryeong.

He also expressed his deepest apologies to his younger brother and promised him happiness in the future.

Now everything is back in place.

Jinwoo, who had been looking at his mother’s oxygen for a long time, slowly turned his gaze.

What was visible there was Baek Dong-ha’s oxygen.

Jinwoo took out soju from his bag and poured it into Baek Dongha’s oxygen tank.

During that time, Jinwoo lived to get revenge on Baek Dongha.

But Baek Dong-ha’s sword dance is over.

Now, I have to let Baek Dong-ha go and start living Jin-woo’s life in earnest.

Those who make a fuss about money are beaten with money, and those who make a fuss about power are suppressed with power… … .

This was Jinwoo’s vision of his future life.

After finishing his thoughts, Jinwoo slowly raised his gaze and looked at the sky.

The sky was unusually blue.
