87 – Chapter 87

“Haa… ….”

Nikolai sighed and hesitated to get out of the car.

He was embarrassed to go to a place he would never normally go to, and he felt a bit unfair about what he had to do and why he had to come here.

She finally made up her mind and got out of the car and went into the building, but she already felt the pressure of the swarming stares.

Normally, I wouldn’t have paid much attention to people’s gazes, but today, perhaps because it was an uncomfortable place, I was even concerned about people’s gazes.

He entered the building calmly, maintaining an expressionless face on the outside. As soon as he entered the building, Nikolai felt a different atmosphere than usual.

“Oops… …. Uhhhhh!”

As I entered the building, I felt the sound of distant music and a quiet, heavy atmosphere with stronger hearing than others.

Nikolai usually avoided going to funerals as much as possible, but due to the nature of his job, he went to the funerals of his colleagues several times.

Nikolai, who is really uncomfortable with the heavy and sad atmosphere unique to funeral halls, had never attended a funeral of a victim before.

Even if the request to come to the funeral of the high-ranking people was rejected with a single knife, and the victim’s bereaved family sent an invitation with tears in their eyes, no one had been able to force Nikolai, but there was no one who could force Nikolai to send him, who said he did not want to go anymore. There was a person

· · · · ·

Last night, after Nikolai and McCoy’s second shift, Seunghee and Nikolai, who had been guarding the response team for the first time in a while, were having a comfortable conversation because they had no eyes to see.

“No, you’ve never been to a funeral of a victim before?”

In response to Han Seung-hee’s genuinely surprised question, Nikolai was surprised to see Han Seung-hee surprised.

“Isn’t everyone like that? Of course, there is no one like me who has never been there, but where is the hero who attends the funerals of the victims every time?”

Due to the nature of the special hero response team, there were many cases where victims died or suffered fatal injuries, and naturally, heroes could not afford to attend all funerals.

“But it does, does it make sense that I have never been there? Originally, a shooter must take it a couple of times for training.”

There was a tradition in the response team to have new recruits attend the funerals of the victims, and most hero groups, not just the response team, routinely invite newcomers to the funerals.

There are many reasons for this, including seeing the bereaved families of the victims and promoting the purpose and professionalism of hero activities, and also because it has the effect of reducing the guilt of ‘processing’ the villains, and most hero organizations When a new hero comes in from the field, the veterans often experience a funeral.

“The funeral home was inconvenient and they said they really didn’t want to go, so they didn’t send it?”

“Really? Did the seniors just leave it there?”

Of course, the person who was Nikolai’s gunner didn’t just sit back and watch.

Hero, who was Nikolai’s shooter, was a hero with a strong work ethic. Even if the newcomer arrogantly refused, he kept persuading Nikolai that, as a hero, he should find out how the bereaved family felt at least a few times.

Of course, Nikolai, who had just become a hero at a young age and was going through a period of stormy rage, refused to come until the end, and at the words of the shooter, ‘unless you are injured, you must go unconditionally,’ he slammed his arm in front of his eyes. I gave up when I saw Nikolai confidently say, ‘I’m injured, so I don’t have to go, right?’

“Yes. I said I didn’t like that kind of place because it was uncomfortable. Even the seniors understand in the end, right?”

Against his madman who refused to go even if he broke his arm, the seniors who couldn’t force it anymore just gave up on Nikolai, but Nikolai didn’t even say that.

“I can’t do that… …. Then you should go again, Nick. If you attend the funeral of the bereaved even once, your mindset will change.”

“Ah, Seunghee, I really don’t want to go to places like that because it’s uncomfortable… ….”

Unable to break his own arm against Seung-hee, who persuaded him that he should go at least once, Nikolai tried to look as pitiful as possible, but it didn’t work at all.

“Oops. What is that expression? Do you really want to go just this once? The first time I went there, I felt a lot of things.”

“It’s too late to go… ….”

Han Seung-hee, who barely held back his laughter at the sight of Nikolai whining like a child while shaking his huge body gently, came up with a special countermeasure.

“I’ll grant you a wish when you come back this time.”

Nikolai, who had been drooping down with a gloomy expression, answered with his eyes shining at the sound of a wish.

“Wish?”

“Yes. Wish!”

Seeing Nikolai staring intently at Seung-hee with his eyes shining without a gloomy expression, Seung-hee smiled.

“I’ll be right back.”

Seeing that Nikolai immediately got up as if he was in a hurry, Seunghee slapped Nikolai on the back.

Wow!

“Evil!”

“I’m at work, where are you going?”

“Ah… ….”

· · · · ·

Nikolai, with a huge body of 2m 13cm, stood out wherever he went, but Nikolai in a black and white suit stood out even more.

When he was wearing the uniform of the response team, he did not feel like a gangster at least, but when he was wearing a suit suitable for a funeral, Nikolai naturally attracted attention wherever he went because he gave off an atmosphere that seemed like he was living in a gang.

When I pretended to be calm and went up to the second floor, I saw the picture of the victim displayed on the monitor and knew that I had come to the exact location.

“Huh? Nikolai?”

A man in his late teens was guarding the entrance, but when he recognized Nikolai and spoke out, all eyes were on him.

As Nikolai silently bowed, a man sitting at the entrance guided him.

“Put your money here and write your name here and go in.”

As far as Nikolai knew, the victim was an only child, so the man who guided us at the entrance looked like a relative’s younger brother.

Nikolai avoided the funeral hall as much as possible because it was inconvenient, but he did not avoid the funerals of his colleagues or their families, so he burned incense and bowed as he was accustomed to.

After the meeting with the sangju, whose eyes were swollen, the sangju opened his mouth.

“Ah… …. I didn’t know if you would come, but thank you very much.”

It was heartbreaking to see Sangju, whose eyes were visibly swollen from how much he had cried and his voice was hoarse.

The person presumed to be the victim’s mother seemed to be weeping, and I could understand why hero groups make sure to include new heroes at their victims’ funerals.

The hatred for the villains and the sense of mission for hero activities welled up quickly.

“I saw how you did the dog. Really…… Really…… Thank you.”

After delivering the words of consolation that I had memorized in advance, I went to the place where people were sitting.

In the case of hero activities, there are many cases where they understand that death is close to the nature of their job, so it is not so gloomy, but the atmosphere was even more gloomy, perhaps because their only child suddenly became a victim of serial murder.

Nikolai felt a little regret that he had never been to the funeral of a victim who had been so stubborn.

In the corner, women who appeared to be the victim’s friends were gathering silently, hugging each other and shedding tears, while Sang-ju, who seemed to be her father, was staring blankly at the ceiling and holding back tears.

The bereaved family approached Nikolai, who refused to eat and was sitting drinking sikhye, and talked to him for a while.

“You must be busy with hero activities, so thank you for coming.”

“Ah. No. Sorry for coming a little late.”

I couldn’t even remember what kind of conversation we had in the heavy and sad atmosphere, but even after leaving the mortuary, the woman presumed to be the victim’s mother continued to sob.

Since he is a top-notch hero in the industry, he put in a generous amount of money to save face, but he left the funeral home hoping that it would be a little comforting.

Until she arrived at the funeral home, even if she did, she thought the sound of ‘you have to go at least once’ was so annoying and useless, but as she left the funeral home, she had complicated thoughts.

He regretted that he was stubborn and never attended the funerals of the victims in the early days of his hero activities.

She was immersed in her thoughts on a rainy night as she waited for the signal in front of a red-lit traffic light. I felt it again.

She understood perfectly well that a country like Russia would allow heroes to torture villains openly.

It may have the meaning of warning that if you commit a crime, you will be treated like this, but the anger of the bereaved family made such an act acceptable.

As the blue light shone in her eyes, she started her car and finished her contemplation.
