A little embarrassed to delay his elder brother, he hurriedly asked.

"Is the eldest brother going back quickly?"

"Um... yes?"

Because of the topic of "family", Cheng Jin-Woo wanted to meet his wife and children who were waiting for him at home.

***

Residences located on the outskirts of the city.

Cheng Jin-Woo parked his car nearby when he got home.

This is a house that can't be afforded by a criminal policeman's salary, but the other owner of this house was once a well-known sports star in country H, so people didn't suspect Cheng Jin-Woo.

However... the fact that this house was not built by humans is also a secret that only Cheng Jin-Woo and Cha Hae-In know.

As soon as he entered the house, Cheng Jin-Woo saw the two army commanders who were conducting psychological warfare at the entrance.

Berlion and Yegrit stared at each other, not giving an inch.

And soon, upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Cha Hae-In came out with her son in her arms.

"Wife."

Cheng Jin-Woo took his son with a smile and shook it gently.

The guard showed a "giggle" smile, and he stretched out his hand towards Cheng Jin-Woo.

"Bah-!"

Cheng Jin-Woo tenderly hugged his son who reached out to him for a hug, and then pointed to the two army commanders with his chin.

He asked Cha Hae-In.

"What happened to them?"

"that......"

Cha Hae-In answered vaguely in order to hold back her smile, but Cheng Jin-Woo quickly understood the situation.

I saw Berleon still staring at Yegrit.

"You actually said that you can't teach the young master to use a sword. Does that sound plausible to you, Yegrid?"

The momentum of Yegrit's reply was not lost at all to the opponent.

"In this world! Grades! That's everything! Burrion."

In the blink of an eye, Yegrit picked up a children's exercise book at some point in his hand.

Seeing the confrontation between the two soldiers, Cheng Jin-Woo felt very speechless.

Cheng Jin-Woo walked towards them very helplessly.

"You two..."

The two army commanders who didn't react until Cheng Jin-Woo approached immediately turned around and knelt down.

"Lord!"

"Lord!"

Facing these two army commanders who were too concerned about raising children, Cheng Xiaoyu was helpless again.

"Whether it's fencing or learning, how about waiting until the child learns to walk?"

Because of the lord's words, Berleon and Yegrit glanced at each other, and then quickly bowed their heads to the lord.

"You are right."

"You are right, my lord."

"very good."

Cheng Jin-Woo, who was hugging the guardian, smiled, and the guardian in his arms also laughed.

"ah."

It was as if they were afraid that others would not know that the two were father and son.

Cha Hae-In looked at the smiles of these two people who seemed to be carved out of the same mold, and couldn't help laughing.

***

Li Shihuan, who took over, is now gradually familiar with the work of the criminal police.

Cheng Jin-Woo was called away by the director.

Observing the unusual eyes of those senior detectives who entered the director's office one after another, Cheng Xiaoyu felt that summoning was not a good thing.

After the senior came out, Cheng Jin-Woo, who was called into the director's room, walked over to the director's desk.

"You looking for me?"

The director, who was looking into the distance, said in a low voice with his back to Cheng Jin-Woo.

"I heard that you are still involved in the cases of other criminal police..."

really.

Let's just say that the look in the senior's eyes just now was not simple.

Cheng Jin-Woo coughed dryly in his heart.

The director quickly turned around and smiled at Cheng Jin-Woo.

"It's also appropriate for you not to cause dissatisfaction with other criminal policemen, Hunter Cheng."

familiar faces.

Wu Zhenzhe is the youngest director in history.

As a matter of course, he also had some assistance from Cheng Jin-Woo in the various cases he handled.

Cheng Jin-Woo corrected Oh Jin-Cheol's words with a smile.

"It's not a hunter anymore, Director."

"But I still feel more comfortable calling you a hunter."

Wu Zhenzhe glanced at the documents on the desktop and continued.

"A few days ago, the father of the woman who committed suicide suddenly disappeared. Do you know about this?"

"yes?"

"Even all the surveillance footage around his residence just happened to malfunction at the same moment."

"My God, how could there be such a coincidence."

Wu Zhenzhe just looked at Cheng Xiaoyu pretending to be stupid, then smiled and threw the document into the trash can.

"No matter what Cheng Hunter does, I will always believe in you."

Cheng Xiaoyu was very grateful to Wu Zhenzhe for his 100% trust in him, he bowed his head to Wu Zhenzhe.

then.

"But actually... I didn't call you because of this..."

Wu Zhenzhe handed Cheng Xiaoyu a post-it note that had not been put away on the table.

The name and ward number of a hospital are recorded on it.

"...I thought you'd like to know."

"what is this?"

When Cheng Xiaoyu asked, Wu Zhenzhe answered as if he was ready.

"President Gao Jianli, no, President Gao Jianli's condition is very serious."

***

Cheng Jin-Woo is the second time to visit Chairman Go Gun-ri's ward.

About ten years ago.

Cheng Jin-Woo rescued Go Gun-ri with the "Spirit of Life" that once saved his mother.

And now he once again stood in front of Gao Jianli who was facing death head on.

This is already the second time we met, Chairman Gao Jianli was not surprised to see Cheng Jin-Woo this time.

Gao Jianli nodded vigorously to the strange young man wearing a hood, and then tapped the oxygen mask that blocked his mouth with his hand.

Cheng Jin-Woo, who understood his intention, carefully helped Go Gun-ri take off the oxygen mask, and Go Gun-ri immediately gasped for breath.

He spoke intermittently.

"Young man, here you are again...I've actually been looking for you...for a long time."

Cheng Jin-Woo looked at him with some distress.

"If President, you want this disease to be cured"

But before Cheng Jin-Woo could finish his words that could cure him again, Gao Jianli shook his head to stop him.

"I've...lived too long. In the ten years you've given me... I've done everything I was supposed to do. That's enough..."

In the lost time and space, Gao Jianli established the Hunter Association single-handedly, and here Gao Jianli is a leading model entrepreneur dedicated to charity.

And now he no longer wants to prolong his life.

What he asks is completely different from what people think.

"Actually... I have one thing I want to ask you."

Cheng Jin-Woo nodded.

Seeing Cheng Jin-Woo's appearance without hesitation, Go Gun-ri looked at him earnestly.

"You said... I once fought by your side in a world, didn't you?'

Cheng Jin-Woo nodded silently again.

"Then can you let me take a look at that time? I really want to know what I was like at that time...and what were you like?"

"Maybe there will be some memories you don't want to recall."

"It's okay. I just want to get back my lost memories."

Cheng Jin-Woo watched the earnest expression on Chairman Go Gun-ri's expression, and then gently grabbed his hand.

Immediately afterwards, memories from the disappearing time and space flooded into Gao Jianli's mind like a tsunami.

"Ahh..."

Tears welled up in Gao Jianli's eyes.

Cheng Jin-Woo took off his hood so that the head of the Go Gun-ri Association could see his face clearly.

Gao Jianli held onto Cheng Jin-Woo's hand tightly, big tears rolling down his cheeks one by one.

"Being able to be like this again...with Cheng Hunter..."

Go Gun-ri was panting heavily, and Seong Jin-Woo gently took his hand back.

Gao Jianli looked up at the ceiling of the hospital again.

"I really....really...with a young hero like you..."

His voice was so content.

Gao Jianli sincerely felt the emotions welling up from the depths of his heart.

Not long after, he who had already let go gradually lost his voice.

The former president of the Gao Jianli Association passed away quietly.

Cheng Jin-Woo's eyes were also full of tears.

He closed Gao Jianli's eyes, and the next second, the machine sounded as if announcing the death of the patient.

Beep-

The doctors ran into the ward in a panic, but the suspicious-looking visitor had already left.
