The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 131: Police Chief (2)

Lee Sung-hyun opened the door with his card key and let Ryu Min into the house.

A house befitting a congressman seemed utterly ordinary, just like any other home, but Ryu Min knew.

It was a home filled with precious memories of a man who had lost his family.

Please, have a seat.

As Ryu Min sat on the sofa, Lee Sung-hyun took a seat opposite him.

I never expected to see my savior again. You left as if we would never meet again.

I have a favor to ask of you, Congressman.

A favor?

Surprised, Lee Sung-hyun smiled and said,

Ah, this might be an opportunity to repay my savior. Tell me, what is it?

Ill get straight to the point. The police are planning to establish a counter-player unit, right?

Yes.

Recommend me as the commander of that unit.

What?

Lee Sung-hyun was taken aback.

Recommend me as the commander?

He thought the request would be something simple like asking for money, but this was unexpected.

That made him curious.

Why? Why do you want to be the commander? Is it for power?

A direct, unfiltered question from Lee Sung-hyun.

A sort of test.

If he has ulterior motives, hell show signs of nervousness here.

However, the man known as Black Scythe didnt even flinch.

That meant he had a completely different, solid reason.

So hes driven by belief, not personal greed?

While he pondered this, Ryu Min spoke.

Power, huh? Thats not bad either.

Huh?

Lee Sung-hyun was taken aback by the unexpected answer, but Ryu Min hadnt finished speaking yet.

But more than that, its my personal desire that makes me want the position.

Personal desire?

Ryu Min paused, building the atmosphere.

Perhaps for the same reason you proposed the law, Congressman Lee?

I too despise criminal players. I wont say why. It would only make the mood gloomy.

Looking down as if harboring a sad story, Lee Sung-hyun realized.

The reason Black Scythe had readily saved him.

Whatever it is, he hates criminal players just like me. Thats why he didnt accept any compensation. He was satisfied with just dealing with the criminals!

Now he somewhat understood Black Scythes actions.

Can you consider it?

Hmm I can recommend you but dont get your hopes up. The authority to select the unit members lies with the Police Chief, so

You mean I could be rejected?

Thats right. Still, Ill do my best to advocate for you. You saved me, and youre a famous figure among players, so youre more than qualified to be the commander. But theres no guarantee. If the Police Chief, insists on forming the unit with only police officers, ignoring the players skill, I cant do much

Thats enough for me. If you officially recommended me, and the Police Chief accepts the recommendation and appoints me as the commander, that would be enough for me.

But, what if the Police Chief rejects you?

Then, it cant be helped. But please, make sure to recommend me.

Alright, Ill do what I can.

Ryu Min seemed to have finished his business and stood up.

Leaving already? At least have a cup of tea

No. Its not right to stay long in someone elses home. Ill see you again. Ah.

As Ryu Min turned to leave, he seemed to remember something and turned back.

Just one thing, please.

Whats that?

Is the Police Chief a man or a woman?

* * *

Among the highest ranks in the police force is the National Police Agency Commissioner.

There are only two in South Korea: the Police Chief and the Coast Guard Chief.

One of them, Police Chief Lee Cheong-ryong, threw documents on his desk with a sigh.

Sigh, damn Congressmen. Drafting such pointless laws to annoy other people. Tch.

What he threw was the law proposed by Lee Sung-hyun for the establishment of a counter-player unit.

This law, which involves drafting police players under the age of 29, had already received approval from the President and, himself, the Police Chief.

But that was just to appease public opinion.

Lee Cheong-ryongs true feelings were filled with negative opinions.

A law for immediate execution in 21st-century South Korea? Does that make any sense?

The law allows for the immediate execution of criminal players in emergency situations involving civilians lives, effectively exempting them from punishment for killing.

In a country where the death penalty has been abolished, such a law is absurd.

Who in their right mind would propose such a law? Ignoring judicial procedures and killing people is murder, right? Tch!

Thats not the only absurd part.

Gathering police players under 29 to form a counter-player unit? Most under 29 are junior officers. How do they plan to catch player criminals that even veteran detectives struggle with, with these greenhorns?

Its likely to be a laughingstock among the senior detective ranks.

Complaints about juniors getting promoted might arise.

This is a total disaster. A complete waste of time.

And who would they pick as the commander of such a unit?

Theyre all rookies with no experience in catching a single criminal.

Sigh.

As he sighed,

Choose me.

The voice out of thin air startled Lee Cheong-ryong.

Ah, f*ck! What the?!

Turning his head, where there was just a wall, a person appeared.

A tanned man was looking at him.

A player!

Such impossible abilities belong only to players.

Lee Cheong-ryong reached for his security gun but was thwarted when the man swiftly approached and disarmed him.

Come on, dont overreact. Its not a death sentence to sneak into the Police Chiefs office, right?

You, what kind of monster How dare you come here?!

Monster? Thats harsh for a law-abiding citizen.

What are you? What do you want?!

Shouting for help wont do you any good. Ive already taken care of everything outside.

What?

Click-

The door to the Police Chiefs office opened, and a woman entered.

Yamti. Is everything taken care of?

Yes. Everything that happened here has been dealt with as if it never happened.

What are you planning to do? Dont tell me

Ah, Chief. Youre thinking of torture, but do you really think wed do something so inhumane?

Then what?

Just a few orders that need to be carried out. Yamti.

As Yamti stepped forward, the Police Chiefs pupils swirled with pink.

Looking into her eyes was the end of it.

Falling under her charm was instantaneous.

Yamti, convey my words exactly to the Police Chief.

Understood, Master.

Make sure the counter-player unit is established and operational as soon as possible. And

Ryu Min grinned.

Appoint Black Scythe as the commander of the counter-player unit.
