Chapter 59 - The Call
Soo Min waited impatiently for the results of Seo In Sung's autopsy and kept going to the appropriate Section every now and then to be there when the results came. Hyun Woo was sitting alone in their Section office when he received a call from Jang Chang Ho.
- Detective Jung Hyun Woo?- he heard his voice in the receiver.- Yes, that's right.- Hyun Woo replied.- Should I notify detective Kim about your call?- he asked later.- No need, I'd rather you take care of what I have to tell you.- Jang Chang Ho replied quickly.- Because this case has to do with Gwangju, and as far as I know, you worked there, right? So it will be easier for you to check it, detective Jung.- he explained in more detail.- Okay, continue then Jang Chang Ho-ssi.- Hyun Woo replied, clearly intrigued by what this young man had to say.- This whole case of "Cherry Blossom Reaper" keep on bothering me, so I started to rummage a little bit in the history of Choi's family because I know that tRelated chapters
Blossom Tears Chapter 60 - Kim Mi Young
( *Halmeoni - literally grandmother, used also as a polite way of addressing any elderly woman. )Hyun Woo found the right address without any problems. The building in which this woman was renting the apartment was located in another Seoul neighborhood, Mapo, near Mangwon Station Exit 2. Her apartment was on the roof of the building and looked very modest from the outside. Hyun Woo knocked on the door and heard footsteps very quickly. The door opened slightly, held slightly by a chain. There was a little bit of a wrinkled face peeking out with one shapely black eye with a double eyelid, in which one could clearly see the enormous fatigue. The woman's hair was already gray.- Who's there?- asked a high, slightly screeching voice.- Hello, halmeoni*. My name is Jung Hyun Woo, I am a detective from Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, Investigation Department, Violent Crime Section.- Hyun Woo introduced himself, showing her his badge.- I got a m
Blossom Tears Chapter 61 - Discovering the Truth
- What did he do?!- Soo Min yelled when Han Eul started giving her a message from Hyun Woo.- What is he thinking?! We have a difficult case to solve, this is not the time to take care of private matters!- she slapped her hand on the colleague's desk, piercing him with her eyes. She couldn't believe that Hyun Woo might have been so irresponsible as to leave her alone with the "Cherry Blossom Reaper" case at a point like this because of some private matter.- I tried to reason with him, sunbae...- Han Eul began speaking again, clearly terrified by her outburst. He had never seen her like this before, although she could be malicious, but never so aggressive.- Shut up.- Soo Min growled at him, then turned and walked over to her desk, taking phone from it. She took a few deep breaths so that could efficiently find his phone number. When Soo Min succeeded, called without hesitation, but she heard in the receiver that the owner of the number was unavailable at the moment. Blood
Blossom Tears Chapter 62 - Encounter With Devil
Soo Min, having learned that Hyun Woo not only left her to settle some private matter, but also took their police station car. She was pissed at him because had to explain the lack of the car to the Chief Kim and didn't know why, but she made up an excuse. Perhaps because Soo Min wanted to punish Hyun Woo as she wanted? Or maybe because of his great work so far, she wanted to give him a chance to come back and explain himself? Anyway, Soo Min saved his ass and hoped Hyun Woo had good reason to do what he did. When Soo Min calmed down a bit and thought about it carefully, she even came to the conclusion that it was impossible for Hyun Woo to act so irresponsibly. He must have had a good reason for sure.After finishing work, Soo Min left the police station and tried to call Hyun Woo again, but with the same effect as before. Where was he at this time? Soo Min put the phone in the pants pocket, found her car in the parking lot, got into it, fastened her seat belt and started the en
Blossom Tears Chapter 63 - The Disappearance
Hyun Woo sat in the car in the parking lot, dialing Soo Min a third time. The first and second time no one answered, and soon also the third time.- Is she really so angry with me that doesn't answer the phone?- he asked himself, staring at the phone screen. All in all, he should have expected it. Soo Min was certainly disappointed that he had shown such irresponsibility and left her alone while they had such an important investigation to deal with. But Hyun Woo felt that what he had learned in Gwangju was very important and he couldn't ignore this feeling.After a while he decided to text her on KakaoTalk, hoping she would at least read the message."Sunbae, I'm sorry to disappear like that, but I assure you I had a good reason. I'll explain it when we meet tomorrow at the police station." he wrote and put the phone in his trouser pocket, ready to start the car's engine.Hyun Woo set off, left the parking lot in front of the Gwangju Police Station and only manag
Blossom Tears Chapter 64 - Cherry Blossom Reaper
- Choi Hyun Sik...- she said softly, a slight smile appeared on his face.- Detective Kim, how nice it is to hear my name coming out of your mouth, and spoken like this.- he said in a very relaxed voice. It sounded strange, unnatural, especially after Soo Min's previous conversations with him. At this point, he did not look like an introvert at all.- And as it's better give up formal language, let me call you Soo Min, okay?- he asked and walked closer to her bed. Then Hyun Sik bent slightly over Soo Min and ran his hand over her cheek with an expression on his face as if this small gesture alone gave him a lot of pleasure.- So you are really the "Cherry Blossom Reaper"...- Soo Min spoke to him in a tone full of accusation.Her words changed the expression on his face within seconds, but there was no point in finding anger or indignation on it. His face turned to stone, completely expressionless.- I don't really like this nickname.- Hyun Sik finally said.- Peopl
Blossom Tears Chapter 65 - His Secret
At her words Hyun Sik's face lit up even more and he walked away from the bed where Soo Min was lying, towards the metal door. He revealed the keyboard, but quickly covered it with his whole body before he started typing the code. You can see that Hyun Sik was very careful, which did not surprise Soo Min. She couldn't forget that he was, after all, the "Cherry Blossom Reaper", the same one who was so brilliantly able to cover his tracks and planned each kidnapping with precision down to the smallest detail.When the sound of the lock was heard, Hyun Sik pulled hard on the handle, unlocking the massive metal door. She was immediately struck by the tremendous chill of this room that really reminded her of a morgue. But as the door was opened completely, Soo Min saw a sight much more terrifying than the morgue.In the center of the room was a slightly frosted couch, with human-sized dolls perched on top of it, or so it seemed at first glance. They were sitting side by side, o
Blossom Tears Chapter 66 - Into The Lion's Cave
Hyun Woo got quite quickly to the Choi Hyun Sik's house, but in his opinion too late for the situation. He had no idea if Soo Min was still alive, but she was a detective after all and certainly had a better chance against the "Cherry Blossom Reaper". Nevertheless, Hyun Woo was terribly worried, and as stopped the car in front of the gate, which began to open slowly, he wondered what would happen if there were security guards on the property. However, when Hyun Woo entered the area, his fears turned out to be unfounded. It was empty here, as if no one was there at all. But he had the impression that young master Choi must be here, and Soo Min with him. Of course, Hyun Woo was worried about what would happen, but if he was wrong and Choi Hyun Sik was not the "Cherry Blossom Reaper". However, as he learned from Soo Min, Hyun Woo chose to trust his intuition.He turned off the engine and got out of the car, removing the gun from its holster for the first time since arriving in Seo
Blossom Tears Chapter 67 - Discovery
Hyun Woo again went to the second wing of the house and turned into the corridor from which Soo Min had come out earlier. He immediately noticed a slightly ajar door at its end and a light radiating from the room to which they led. Hyun Woo raised the gun up, walked to the door, opening it wider, and saw a metal staircase leading down. So it was a basement. He walked slowly down the stairs and immediately noticed in the center a hospital bed with stripes that were however cut.- Soo Min sunbae was prepared as always.- Hyun Woo said to himself, as he guessed that Soo Min was strapped to this bed, but prudently had some small knife with her and freed herself from the straps.However, his attention was quickly distracted by the chill emanating from the opposite side, so he looked in that direction. What Hyun Woo saw terrified him very much - the open door to a room that resembled a morgue in its coldness and general appearance. The only strange accessory was the couch placed
