My Calling Is Profiler [EN]: Chapter 667

“What was inside?”

“Listen. I think we got something useful.”

Seo Ju-won called Park Do-joon and Lee Ji-soo to listen to the audio extracted from the black box on the computer.

-This should block the entrance, right?

-Don’t block it completely. Hyung-nim [term of respect, like ‘brother’ or ‘boss’] wants you to block it just enough so the fire truck can’t get in. If you block it completely, someone else will come and move it before that.

-Got it.

“It’s Chinese. Is it related to Wang Uihwan’s gang?”

Park Do-joon shook his head at Lee Ji-soo’s words.

“No. The atmosphere at the scene was very strange for a gang-related incident.”

There were no traces of a surprise attack, which should have been there if it was a gang fight.

“Let’s listen first.”

The recorded conversation wasn’t that long.

-This is a waste. Can’t we take it with us?

-Don’t do anything that will get us caught. Just do as you’re told, or it will get noisy later.

It seemed the criminals were planning to block the road with the Fire Hell Clan’s vehicle.

-To the left. We’ll block the right with something else.

The voices of two people who appeared to be drivers. The sound of an engine. And the sound of the engine turning off.

“Damn it.”

A very short driving distance. They wanted information to come out of this, but unfortunately, no information came out. They talked about a man called Hyung-nim, but there was no name or characteristics of that man.

“Do you think this will be difficult?”

Just as Lee Ji-soo was frowning, fortunately, the recording wasn’t over.

-By the way, did the White Dragon Society guys really come to Korea?

-I don’t know. But since we messed with them, we should be careful for a while.

“White Dragon Society?”

At that word, Park Do-joon’s ears perked up.

“Wait, the White Dragon Society, you mean?”

The White Dragon Society is an organization in China. And it’s an organization Park Do-joon knows. Because he put a bounty on Wang Uihwan’s head using his name.

“White Dragon Society? Could it be? Wang Uihwan?”

Lee Ji-soo’s eyes widened at those words.

“Was this Wang Uihwan? No, why Wang Uihwan here all of a sudden?”

Lee Ji-soo was confused. Why was Wang Uihwan suddenly appearing here? But Park Do-joon, on the other hand, looked like he knew something.

“He’s probably targeting someone.”

“Senior?”

“There’s a high possibility.”

Since he believes Park Do-joon has a fatal weakness, he’s going to try to kidnap him.

“It seems their power has decreased a lot more than I thought.”

“It seems so.”

He expected it. Because they lost their remaining forces in an instant.

Since no additional personnel could come from China, he thought the remaining personnel would be at most a dozen.

“But this incident has made it clear. The remaining personnel must be no more than five.”

There were seven people outside. But there were definitely fewer than them.

“If there’s only a difference of one or two people, you usually don’t let your guard down like that.”

There must be at least a difference of two or more people to let your guard down like that. Considering that situation, there must be no more than five people.

“Even with that number, can’t they still kidnap someone?”

Park Do-joon shook his head at those words.

“Of course, they can try to kidnap someone. But since I’m not the target, they need additional personnel.”

“Well, if it’s just Senior alone, five people, or six including Wang Uihwan, would be enough to kidnap him.”

“Right, but since that’s difficult, they must have come to the Fire Hell Clan for help.”

However, instead of kidnapping with them, the Fire Hell Clan decided to sell them out.

“Was it because they were tempted by the 300 million won [Korean currency]?”

“That too, but the target of the kidnapping might have been burdensome.”

“Yes?”

“Who would they be kidnapping? Why would Wang Uihwan ask the Fire Hell Clan for help? The answer is obvious. He can’t do it alone. So, who is the target that five people can’t kidnap at this point?”

“It’s Jung Yi-yeon.”

“That’s right.”

His brother’s family was evacuated overseas in case of an emergency. At this point, only his brother is left in Korea due to work. And he warned the government, so if someone tries to kidnap him at this point, they have to get through the National Intelligence Service agents first.

“But the National Intelligence Service agents are guarding him without revealing themselves.”

So it’s hard to see that the other party knows about the National Intelligence Service’s protection.

“Furthermore, the National Intelligence Service is an organization that possesses firearms.”

No matter how extreme and cruel the Fire Hell Clan is, they won’t try to attack a national group with firearms.

“So it must be a target they can accept. That’s only Jung Yi-yeon.”

“Isn’t this really dangerous?”

No matter how much Jung Yi-yeon insisted that she wouldn’t run away, she was still a civilian. But a violent organization was trying to kidnap her, so he couldn’t just leave her alone.

“No. It’s safer now.”

“Yes?”

“Things went wrong. Wang Uihwan’s gang killed ten people. But did they kill them simply because they didn’t like each other?”

“Ah, that’s right.”

Perhaps the Fire Hell Clan believed the rumors and tried to hand Wang Uihwan over to the White Dragon Society, and Wang Uihwan killed them to survive.

“Then Wang Uihwan will believe that the White Dragon Society is tracking him down.”

“It’s definitely hard to try to kidnap someone in that situation.”

“Right.”

Of course, he can try. But the bodyguards protecting Jung Yi-yeon now are not just any nobodies. Rather, they are skilled and have proven combat power.

“It’s impossible to try to kidnap someone with only six people in that situation. And he can’t replenish other personnel.”

The fact that he chose the Fire Hell Clan first means that he thought they were the most trustworthy among them.

No one chooses the second best when there is a best option.

“But he betrayed them and even tried to sell them out. Who would he trust?”

“Of course, he can’t trust anyone.”

“Right. The best defense is offense, but it’s hard to attack me at this point.”

Rather, he’s likely to try to hide to survive.

“Then how are you going to track him down?”

“Isn’t it obvious?”

Park Do-joon said to Jung Yi-yeon as a matter of course.

“Who would that guy ask for help? It’s Hong Woo-jong. And do you think that guy will help him willingly?”

He’s not that nice.

“Wang Uihwan is already trapped, hahaha.”

# What is meant by disposal

Wang Uihwan wanted to live. In fact, every living thing has an instinct for life. And sometimes instinct stops reason.

Wang Uihwan was the same. If it were the usual Wang Uihwan, he would have been able to prevent mistakes if he had judged the other party rationally. But he couldn’t.

Because the instinct to live began to look for someone who could help him first.

The second mistake he made was not realizing that he was changing. In fact, many profilers do not recognize that fact.

What is the standard when profiling? It’s himself. What he has learned and experienced is also important, but in order to interpret it, the profiler himself must set the standard properly and stand firm.

But Wang Uihwan did not realize that he had changed, and that he was being twisted.

He not only quit the police force, but also stood on the side of criminals and mercilessly killed those who were in their way.

And that changed him. As a result, Wang Uihwan made a choice to protect his family at a crucial moment.

“So you’re saying you want me to hide you now?”

“Yes, we’re in danger as we are.”

“Are those White Dragon Society guys that dangerous?”

“They are dangerous.”

Of course, the degree of danger may be less for other people.

But what about them? They will die. They will die very painfully and cruelly.

Lucky people will die in one shot, but not Wang Uihwan.

No, Wang Uihwan didn’t want to die. Why did he betray the Public Security and belong to a criminal group? Wasn’t it to live well and prosper? But death.

Wang Uihwan couldn’t accept it.

“If those guys catch us, we’ll be brutally murdered. We need help.”

‘Hmm.’

However, Wang Uihwan had completely forgotten in his haste. That his cruel death was not important to Hong Woo-jong. In the first place, he is a human being whose hobby is to torture people to death.

Would he be interested in Wang Uihwan’s death? Of course, he only thought about one thing.

‘What should I do with this guy? He’s still useful, but it’s ambiguous to protect him. Should I dispose of him?’

The problem is whether the target is helpful to him or not. Not helpful? Then Hong Woo-jong didn’t care even if he was dying in front of him.

“Then what about that guy?”

“Who are you talking about?”

“Park Do-joon, Park Do-joon. You said you were going to drag that guy out and find his weakness?”

“That’s…”

At those words, Wang Uihwan suddenly came to his senses. What he promised was to kidnap Park Do-joon and extract Hong Geun-jong’s weakness through torture.

If he could secure that evidence, Hong Woo-jong could definitely become the next-generation chairman of the Daeguk Group [a fictional powerful corporation], so he couldn’t give it up.

“That’s…”

Only then did Wang Uihwan realize. No matter how difficult he was. And even if he asked for help, Hong Woo-jong would never help him if he was not helpful to him.

He couldn’t ask for help from the outside either.

The original organization was almost destroyed. He can’t ask for help from other organizations either. Even if they help Wang Uihwan, if that fact leaks out, the organization that was harmed will try to kill him before he can get help.

“I told you. Everything is give and take. You have to give me something you can help me with, and then I can help you.”

Unfortunately, Wang Uihwan had nothing to help him with at this point.

“Bring Park Do-joon that bastard.”

“But it’s dangerous.”

“That’s none of my business. Just bring that bastard. Then I’ll tell you a place where you can hide.”

“That…”

“There’s a house in the countryside under a borrowed name. I’ll give it to you. If you hide there, neither the White Dragon Society nor the White Lizard will be able to find you.”

“…”

That’s true. No matter how much power the White Dragon Society can wield in Korea, they can’t dig into the back of a current member of the National Assembly in Korea. Even if they dig, if it’s really under a borrowed name, even the White Dragon Society won’t be able to find them.

“I understand.”

There is no choice. Wang Uihwan bit his lip knowing that.

But he did not know that all of this was being played in Park Do-joon’s hands.

“Hong Woo-jong is a guy who never avoids his own interests.”

Inside the police station. A secret meeting was in progress. There are several people who know about this case, but the target is Hong Woo-jong, a three-term member of the National Assembly and one of the presidential candidates, so they could not easily say that they were investigating it to the outside.

“If you look at Hong Woo-jong’s actions, the answer is obvious.”

“That’s right.”

Lee Ji-soo and Jo Sang-gyu nodded as if they agreed. Even if they are not profilers, if you look at their actions, they are extremely selfish. However, due to the nature of a member of the National Assembly, the media does not talk about it well and they have power, so it is not revealed.
