The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 180

Episode 180. Black Market (4)

Leather with a high success rate in blackmail.

Anyway, aliens don’t really notice the difference in appearance. In some ways, this function might be better for me than being reincarnated as an Earth-style handsome man.

“Sir, excuse me! Cho, I have checked the invitation carefully, so please enjoy the rest of your time comfortably!”

After waiting for a while, the expected result came back.

They apologized, sweating profusely, and then quickly ran away.

The watchman was successfully chased away.

‘phew!’

Then I guess I passed the checkpoint without any problems. Now I need to hear the person involved’s story.

“Excuse me. Seonwooyeon.”

Whoosh.

When I turned my head, I saw a woman wearing a mask watching me from behind.

“You said earlier that there wouldn’t be anything special here?”

When I started talking, her shoulders shrugged.

“That’s right. I think we misjudged the scale. But, the investigation over the past month clearly showed that there were only C-class hunters in this organization… …?”

But when I heard this, a guess suddenly crossed my mind.

‘no way?’

This is a black market that originally targeted non-awakened people as its main customers.

Since the scale was small and the products handled were limited, it was unlikely that high-level Awakeners would visit this place often.

‘After listening to the story, it seems like Kang Chang-ho also hardly used this market.’

So, naturally, the black market’s management would have been negligent in security.

If the opponent was an ordinary person, even one Awakened Person would have been enough manpower.

But what if one day, an S-class person you’ve just met is suddenly added as a guest?

It is possible that the Black Market temporarily tightened security due to the rumor that a monstrous hunter was coming to inspect the market… … .

It’s not that there are absolutely none.

And if this assumption is correct, then the reason why Seonwooyeon’s preliminary investigation went awry is because of a certain S-class hunter.

‘Oh, no, right?’

I was sweating profusely as I reviewed the assumptions that came to mind. At that moment, a sharp explosion passed through my complicated thoughts.

-Bang!

Seon Woo-yeon raises his head when he hears this.

“It was our voice!”

“yes?”

“Because among the police officers who came in with me, there is one who frequently uses explosive skills!”

I was worried because it was quiet for a while, but fortunately, the police officers who came in with her are still safe.

“It’s a little different from the plan, but I guess I should go anyway.”

Soon after, Seonwooyeon went over to the counter and lifted the arrested criminal.

It seemed like it was her job to secure him and join him on the scene.

And just before heading towards the enemy camp, the masked Earthling turns around and hesitates for a moment.

“… …Thank you for helping me just now.”

She said this and quickly left the store.

He didn’t try to arrest me for Blueshell dealing, nor did he ask me to help him with his operation.

‘Is it because you broke your trust in me that you are not asking for my cooperation?’

Well, it’s better to focus on other things than fighting with a suspect you can’t catch.

There was insufficient evidence to arrest him in the act, and his level of sophistication seemed too high.

It was a wise decision.

It was also a good thing for me. The market would soon be in chaos because of that explosion. Now, I just had to sneak out during the chaos and it would be over.

‘Let’s find a place to hide Blueshell on the way home, in case she gets reported later.’

I have the item box firmly attached to the hunter belt I bought a while ago.

But the problem is.

“hmm.”

The part where there is a huge hidden danger in this black market is… … .

“Hmm.”

In fact, there was one store in this market that had an A-class Awakener guarding its sales booth.

Unfortunately, the police’s force predictions were off by a wide margin.

So how will things unfold in the future?

“What should I do?”

If we just leave that A-class alone, Seon Woo-yeon will be in big trouble 100%.

I don’t know what rank the people who came with them were, but the police, suffering from chronic manpower shortages, probably wouldn’t have invested much manpower in such a small-scale black market.

Of course, what if we just deal with that A-class here?

From then on, I started to get confused.

I accepted it out of kindness because he begged. Who would like it if the invited guest started causing a ruckus?

‘Tsk, it would be bad if Kang Chang-ho heard that I blocked the invitation inspection… … .’

Ambiguous position.

But if we don’t take any action, something will definitely happen.

So I thought carefully and chose the option that would cause the least harm.

.

.

About 60 seconds later.

Dulkudung!

I flung open the door of a store.

When a noisy guest appears, the Awakened person sitting on the chair stands up awkwardly and looks at the person.

By the way, the owner of this store is the A-class Awakener I mentioned earlier.

“What, what is it?”

But do you know why I came to this A-class?

Seon Woo-yeon clearly said this. According to the police investigation, the maximum power of this black market was revealed to be Class C.

At one time I heard this and simply assumed there had been some mistake.

Now that I think about it carefully… … .

Even so, it didn’t seem like the investigative experts who had been selected after going through all kinds of tests could be that incompetent.

So let’s assume for now that what the police said about ‘black market security being low for the past month’ is true.

All that remains is simple induction.

First, can a group that breaks the law for money really be unified?

Second, is it like a class A hunter that suddenly appeared and wasn’t discovered before?

‘Seonwooyeon didn’t even know there was a Class A here. That person isn’t an important target for arrest anyway.’

Swoop.

I did all the calculations and acted rationally.

“──Salty!”

“uh?”

“Huh.”

It means that he was caught and made a fuss.

“The crackdown has begun!”

And that too with a roaring voice that could boil a train car.

By the way, the fact that they used the police’s derogatory term to avoid being caught as being on the same side was a kind of bonus.

“What, what did you say? Salty?”

“Didn’t you hear the explosion earlier? That’s the sound of the awakened police using their skills! I heard there was chaos over there with the salespeople being arrested?”

Buzz buzz buzz buzz.

The store suddenly becomes noisy due to the explosive remark.

The atmosphere was already chaotic because of the loud noise just now. Now it has even been revealed that the police have arrived.

“oh my god!”

“shit.”

“So that’s why there were guards around.”

“How on earth did I end up here… …!”

“Could it be that the gate is surrounded as well?”

People who are confused, regardless of whether they are you or me.

But the shock of the guests is none of my concern. I just need to recruit one Earthling.

“Excuse me! I know where the dungeon boss is hiding. Let’s kill it and escape together.”

“omg!”

“The entrance will already be manned by police! But there’s a chance that the exit will be in a remote place… …!”

I spoke to the salesperson across the counter.

“You look like you have a high awakening level. You can take down the boss here, right? Yes? While the police are distracted by catching the person in charge, hurry up and go!”

This was my plan.

If you’re worried that a certain person might harm Seon Woo-yeon, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to just exclude that person from the case.

‘By the way, let’s also get out through the exit.’

If the exit is created by being attached to the entrance… …. That’s when you can just open the [Surprise Box!].

Moreover, from another perspective, this helped prevent black market traders from being arrested.

Even if the situation is relayed to Kang Chang-ho, there won’t be a big problem.

‘If we do it right, we can even make it seem like we did our best to protect the black market that invited us.’

Of course, if that Class A tries to keep his loyalty to the organization.

At that time, we will have to use various hard-line measures, but in this area, we had no choice.

It is not possible to kill an association employee just because you are afraid of Kang Chang-ho.

‘If there’s a difference, it’s a battle.’

I was prepared to draw my weapon at any time.

But the intellectuals here are also quite unexpected.

“Oh, okay. Let’s go!”

“No!”

The A-class hunter immediately betrayed the Black Market.

***

one side.

Seon Woo-yeon, who went to the scene, barely managed to complete the mission.

“Ugh.”

“Ugh… … .”

When I arrived at the place where the explosion was heard, I saw the black market owner and the police engaged in a fierce battle.

She skillfully subdued the operator’s escort with the waiting manipulation skills she had honed over time.

“Phew, khuuuuk!”

A skill that drastically lowers the surrounding air pressure, hindering breathing.

It was a new magic that Seonwooyeon had learned while dealing with all sorts of criminals. The escorts who had been forced into a state of suffocation were finally able to regain their freedom to breathe after being restrained by all sorts of items.

“I’m glad everyone is safe.”

“Oh, don’t be ridiculous. I thought you were going to leave me behind and go to the goal, leaving me behind like rabbits.”

By the way, I was wondering why the promised signal didn’t come… … .

While Seon Woo-yeon is securing a drug dealer with a high risk of running away.

Team A, which was headed towards the manager, seemed to have had a hard time.

As you know, today’s black market has a sharply improved level of security compared to usual.

Among them, there were even hunters who specialized in handling abnormal status skills.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“I feel very light, perhaps because I suddenly fell into a deep sleep.”

They almost all fell into a state of sleep and were buried in the dungeon without anyone knowing.

“phew.”

Fortunately, several people with high awakening levels were able to resist the abnormal status, so the situation did not escalate.

Seon Woo-yeon brushed away his surprised chest.

But at this moment, a scream suddenly erupted from somewhere.

“Hey, what did we do wrong to deserve this? Who said we don’t pay taxes? We do! So let’s solve this first!”

The black market manager complained as if he was wronged.

But the police response was cold.

In fact, as that person said, black markets are difficult to track down and are less serious than other violent crimes, so investigations are not conducted quickly…

“Detective, have you not told me what charges the warrant is for that person?”

“I was so absent-minded that I forgot.”

This is a fairly rare case.

“Okay, we are going to arrest you on charges of violating the Special Act on the Prevention of Illegal Trade in Dungeon Items and Murder by Request.”

Even after the Dungeon Shock, Korea’s murder conviction rate is still appalling.

The detective, whose Gyeongsang dialect was strong, stated the reason for the arrest in a sarcastic tone. Then, the expression on the arrested person’s face completely changed.

I realized that my own shortcomings were the cause.

“Ugh, damn it.”

But somehow that stern face gradually changed into a confident look.

“Hey, okay. Since we’re stuck anyway, let’s just get rid of everything now.”

“What?”

“Everyone in this place knows they’re f*cking dogs! How dare you come in here? Now all that’s left for you is to die!”

A woman with a venomous expression shouts at him.

At first, I thought it was just the meaningless struggle of a captured criminal, but the confidence emanating from the manager was somehow more than that.

“You think you won now? But is there anyone among you who is an A-class?”

The arrested CEO soon revealed one of his secret weapons.

“If it’s not there, it’ll be a big problem. Do you know who’s in this market? I’ve hired an A-class awakened person as my employee!”

There’s an A-class hunter hiding in this dungeon!

Originally, it was a manpower that was called out of fear by a new member, but as the situation has developed, it has taken on a different use.

Fortunately, I have a lot.

Perhaps because he had such enormous wealth that he could have tempted modern people, thirsty for money, to commit murder.

“You little beggars! Get caught by a top-class guy and have your head blown off!”

Hahahaha.

The black market operator raised his voice proudly, backed by his hired servants.

But about 5 minutes later.

When the police finished arresting the key executives and started rounding up the remaining petty criminals.

“uh?”

People were wondering why no high-level Awakeners were found even after thoroughly searching the dungeon.

“Inspector!”

“What? The gate should be sealed. Why are you coming in here?”

“Something’s wrong. This is the exit. The exit! As expected, it was dug in a place completely away from the entrance. We just found it!”

“uh……?”

The butterfly effect that someone had set off soon began to grow in size at a rapid pace.
