MTL - Solo Leveling (Only I Level Up)-Chapter 489

Looking at his back, the policeman couldn't help thinking.

'Won't he feel tired?'

The friend of the deceased still hung his head uneasily.

"I'm detective Seong Jin-Woo. Would you please talk to me?"

When she heard Cheng Jin-Woo's voice, she quickly raised her head.

Although the expression on her face was mixed with sadness and joy, she still nodded vigorously.

"Good!

***

In an empty room with no owner, a black shadow floated up.

It's Cheng Jin-Woo.

For a woman who lives alone, this apartment is a bit larger, and the atmosphere of her life is still everywhere in the apartment.

In the middle of the night.

It was pitch black, but he didn't need any light.

Because to Seong Jin-Woo, it was no different from daytime.

Seong Jin-Woo found the bathroom where she died last.

The bathroom that has not been cleaned is filled with the strong smell of blood and water.

Cheng Jin-Woo stood at the place where the deceased decided to die, and looked down at the bathtub.

Looking at the blood stains that stained his surroundings red, he seemed to be able to feel the pain experienced by the deceased.

but.

He can only imagine it, and can't really feel the pain.

Why did the deceased choose to die? How painful is it at the moment of death?

The living cannot know.

'Maybe...'

Cheng Jin-Woo lowered his body and observed the bloodstain carefully, and then remembered the message that the deceased sent to his friend before his death.

That message was filled with the anticipation of seeing a friend soon.

As the friend said, these are not words that a man who is ready to die can say.

Maybe it's just that the friend doesn't want to believe the truth...

Because that friend believed it.

She would not choose death alone without saying goodbye to herself.

Indeed, the living have no way of knowing what the dead are trying to say.

Maybe, this is just maybe.

However, Cheng Jin-Woo had a way to hear the voice of the dead.

'Just... need the body of the dead...'

Under Cheng Jinyu's instruction, the blood that had solidified began to flow slowly to the surroundings.

The bloodstains that had dried up gathered together and gradually formed a blood clot.

Just like having life, those blood clots continue to proliferate and reproliferate.

The king of the dead, the shadow king, issued an irresistible order following the traces left by the dead.

"stand up."

Chapter 263 [Fanwai 20] Final

The blood clot continued to proliferate, and gradually revealed a female figure who had just grown up but had not yet shed her childishness.

Shua ah one

A female shadow with blood dripping from the tip of her hair looked around in panic.

She couldn't help making a sound of pain.

"Ah... ah...!"

Since she still has the memory of her death, it is natural to feel the pain.

Seong Jin-Woo used the power of the Shadow King to calm Shadow down.

"do not be afraid."

Now you are free from the pain of birth and death.

Under Wang Gentle's voice, the woman gradually calmed down a lot.

Seeing that the woman was still in the same state as when she died, Cheng Jin-Woo made a dress out of darkness and gently covered her body.

"what......"

She carefully wrapped the clothes on her body tightly.

Her name is Xu Xiaoya.

Seong Jin-Woo gave her back her original name, and asked immediately.

"Did you...take your own life?"

Shadow, no, Xu Xiaoya nodded.

To match her height, Cheng Jin-Woo knelt on the ground on one knee.

He looked directly into her face and asked in a low voice.

"What's the reason?"

Her bloodless and tight lips parted slowly.

"I......"

***

Ding dong.

In the middle of the night, the doorbell suddenly rang, and the middle-aged man put the photo frame containing his daughter's photo back into the distance.

'Who will at this time...?'

The middle-aged man who stood up walked towards the walkie-talkie with some doubts.

On the screen of the walkie-talkie, a young man in formal attire was standing outside the door.

If there is one strange thing to say, it is that he wears a black glove on his left hand.

The middle-aged man did not suspect him, so he pressed the intercom button.

beep.

Then the young man took out his ID.

"Hi, I'm Cheng Jin-Woo from the Major Crime Division of the Police Headquarters. I have something to ask you about your daughter. May I borrow your time?"

The face of the young man was exactly the same as the face on the certificate.

Hearing that the other party was a criminal police officer, the middle-aged man also forgot that it was already late at night, so he quickly invited the other party in.

"Is it the result of the investigation? How did my daughter die?"

Looking at the face of Xu Xiaoya's father, Xu Kuinan, Cheng Xiaoyu shook his head.

"The result is not out yet. But I have some questions for you about your daughter."

The father of the deceased showed a disappointed expression when he heard that there was no result yet.

Cheng Jin-Woo asked again.

"Can you walk with me?"

Xu Kuinan thought for a while, and said very sadly.

"Of course. For the truth of my daughter's death, of course I will do my best to help you."

After locking the door of the house, Seo Kyu-nam turned his attention to Seong Jin-Woo.

"Mr. Interpol, let's go."

Cheng Jin-Woo nodded solemnly.

"Here please."

***

Xu Kuinan thought that they were going to the police station together, but the two of them came to a nearby coffee shop.

Seo Kyu-nam asked, "Why did you come to the coffee shop," but the detective only replied that he needed a quiet place to talk.

Just like that, Seo Kui Nam and Cheng Jin Woo sat opposite each other at a table.

Seong Jin-Woo stared at Seo Kyu-nam with a serious expression and asked.

"What kind of student is Miss Xu Xiaoya usually?"

"what?"

"Is there anyone who has a grudge against your daughter...?"

Xu Kuinan belatedly understood the meaning of the question, and he quickly waved his hand.

"No, no. She is definitely not the kind of child who would do disgusting things. She is obviously a very kind and simple child..."

Having said that, Xu Kuinan, who lowered his head, began to cry softly.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Criminal Police. I still can't believe that my daughter just went like this..."

"It seems that you cherish Miss Xiaoya very much."

"Of course. As you know, detective, Xiaoya is not my own daughter. That's why I feel like my own daughter, no! I even love her more than my own daughter."

Xu Kuinan lowered his eyes and continued speaking after struggling to suppress his sadness.

"If she feels tired and bitter, she should at least tell me..."

Contrary to Seo Kyu Nam who was very excited, Seong Jin Woo watched him calmly from the very beginning.

Then, he took out a mobile phone from his pocket.

"We found a recording among your daughter's belongings."

"... what?

"Listen first."

Cheng Jinyu pressed the play button, and the voice of Xu Xiaoya's shadow came out from the phone.

"I..."

This is evidence that she has been abused by her adoptive father since she was a child.

She firmly believes that as long as she is admitted to a university far away, she can escape from her father's abuse.

But I don't know when, the message "I want to see you" from her adoptive father entangled her again...

Therefore, she finally chose death.

Although she chose to end her life, the murderer who put her in this situation was someone else.

drop.

After the recording was played, Xu Kuinan raised his extremely stiff face.

"Why... why are you telling me this?

Xu Kuinan's reaction was faster than ordinary people.

if.
