I Was A Porter - chapter 96
_
“Put your clothes roughly anywhere. I don’t have a coat hanger. ”
“Maximus. No matter how you look around, this place looks the cleanest.” ”
At Khan’s words, Maximus turns his head, but the place he points to is a dumpster.
“It’s a dumpster. ”
“Really? Then your house is cleanest in the trash. ”
“…. Asshole. ”
Khan smiles bloody at his reaction and throws his cloak onto the bed.
Honestly, there was all kinds of junk I didn’t want to leave anywhere else but the bed.
He sat down in his smaller room in front of the cleanest computer.
“Shouldn’t we get you something to drink? ”
At the words of the Khan, Maximus shakes a barrel of protein supplements off the ground, just as Maximus said.
“…. Asshole. ”
After insulting each other, he took it out to get to the point.
“What did you say before? Draksh.”
“I’ll take it first. What are certain conditions? ”
“Turn on the computer. ”
In his words, Khan presses the power button on the computer without saying a word, and the fan turns to sound pretty rough.
Immediately, the monitor’s screen changed a few times, and a window appeared asking you to enter your password.
“What’s a computer password? 4885? ”
“What’s that ridiculous number? Enter 1q2w3e4r. ”
Khan was so childish that he looked at him pitifully for a password he didn’t even use in elementary school.
“There seems to be a lot of problems with that password. ”
“Never mind. ”
After Maximus’ grumbling and entering the password, the desktop immediately appeared.
“Open the file in the middle of your desktop. ”
As he instructed, the brows in the compartment opened the file twitched.
I looked at the file and looked at Maximus.
He sits on one side of the dining table, tearing the steamed chicken breast.
He tears the chicken breast apart without a glance from Khan’s gaze.
“Read it properly. You’ll see one rule. ”
According to him, a compartment starts going through the data thoroughly.
According to Maximus’ words, one rule caught his eye.
Maximus, who had eaten a piece of chicken breast in the short time, turns his head.
“Did you find the rules? ”
“Yes. If I’m not mistaken… ”
The dull, blurry columns line Maximus’ gaze, and the two of them open their mouths at the same time.
“Hunter with a criminal record. ”
At the same time, Khan asks himself a question.
“Why?”
Maximus also knew that Khan’s muttering was not a question towards him, so he continued to eat quietly again.
No matter how I rolled my head, there were too few hints.
I looked carefully to see if there was anything else on this list that I missed, but there was nothing more noticeable.
Looking at the back of the car, Maximus opened his mouth, swallowing the well-carved chicken breast.
“I have to tell your story. I’ve never heard of Draxi getting out, but I talk about him. Reasons to antagonize Draxi. ”
Kan hesitates for a long time on Maximus’ question.
How far do I have to go to tell a story? Does it matter if I tell him a story?
I’ve thought about it a lot, but I can’t tell him.
“I can’t tell you that. ”
“Hey, isn’t that a little unfair? I told you everything. You can’t do this. ”
Maximus shakes his head, but the Khan’s next words are more plausible.
“Let me see Trump. ”
“You can’t meet someone you want to meet, right? Besides, you’re in the country now, aren’t you? You can’t just barge in like this without sending out any cards you have. ”
Maximus grunts and grimaces at Khan’s words.
It was very unpleasant to think of the President of the United States as meeting someone next door.
Khan didn’t care whether he made an impression or not, but only said what he said.
“If you tell him that, he’ll ask to see me first. ”
The car takes a short breath and slowly opens its mouth, gazing into his eyes.
“Gate.”
“What?”
“Draksh, Gate. With these two words, Trump will probably want to meet me. ”
Maximus’ unreasonable confidence in the Khan made no sense, but if you try to rush him, he doesn’t seem to come out.
“You owe me. Remember that.”

“Can’t you hear me? ”
“Yes. I’m looking into it now…. ”
Seeing his blurred expression, it seemed almost as if he had given up.
Detective Dotsner of the Los Angeles Police Department took on the work of a paralyzed association.
Moreover, he was tasked with managing a hunter who committed a crime that none of the police departments wanted to commit, so his chronic headache was not expected to go away.
“Damn it. I can’t reach any of them. Is that poop?” ”
I heard good news as his brow creases deepen.
“Jimmy was found at home. ”
“Good.”
“Dead. ”
Detective Dotsner wrinkles deepened with what Sergeant Simmonna said.
“Damn it. I told you to fix that tone, didn’t I? Do you want my socks in your mouth? ”
“Those mushroom-pinned socks are no good. Would you like to go now…? What are you doing now?”
Sergeant Simona asks a question to Detective Dotsner, who is suddenly seated at her post.
“I’m gonna have to shove these socks down your throat first. ”
I came out to avoid him taking off my socks, but Detective Dotsner, who was chasing me around with all his power, really did give me a sock on his face.
Before entering Jimmy’s house, Detective Dotsner, who was burning a cigarette, approached Sergeant Simone who had entered the scene first.
“What do you think?”
“That sucks.”
“Hey, you bastard. The smell is gone. ”
“No, this case sucks. ”
His blood pressure almost rises because he thinks he’s joking again, but Simmona looks serious for some reason.
“As you can see, the body is in an unusual condition. What’s even weirder is that there’s no sign of forced entry from outside the house, but there’s a sudden appearance of footprints inside. ”
Simon says, “I threw the cigarette out of my mouth and rubbed it on my feet.”
“Tell me more. ”
“The cause of death is similar to commonly known horsepower shock, although the autopsy should be exact. However, based on the fact that the appearance has changed too much in a short time…. ”
Hearing Simone’s words, Dotsner walked into the house.
Simona starts to report the incident, following behind him.
“The second set of steps started in the kitchen. The person walking out of the living room is estimated to be male, and the height is estimated to be between 180 and 195 cm, based on the size and width of the footprint. ”
Jimmy’s eyes crease as he sits in the living room with his eyes wide open.
Dotsner trembled at the photo he saw and the shocking appearance that had changed so much.
“That’s why I told you the body was in a strange state. This picture was taken three months ago, and it’s ridiculously old compared to the state of the body. ”
“Have you been on medication for three months without taking a day off? ”
I looked for traces of the needle as I rolled up the body’s arm, but I couldn’t find any needle traces.
Dotsner looked at his eyes from multiple angles, wondering what he might have seen before he died.
I was wondering if that distorted expression was caused by magic shock or turned into pain for something else.
“Why is Jimmy in charge? ”
“Kidnapping, assault, sexual harassment…. ”
Dotsner waves furiously as if he didn’t want to hear any more, and Simona brings up a little more about the second person.
“After killing Jimmy, the footprint of the second person went back to the kitchen and was cut off. This is it.”
When they arrived in the kitchen, they were looking at the same place.
Dotsner looked down at the kitchen floor for a long time and looked at the footsteps leading up to the living room.
Back in the living room, Dotner looked at Jimmy and asked him, but the dead man said nothing.
“Who killed you…? ”
I asked an unanswered question to the protagonist of the trail that appeared without a trace and disappeared without a trace.

“If you followed me here, shouldn’t you have told me? ”
I tried to pretend to be naive, but the voice of the speaking man was trembling quite a bit.
He was forced to follow the threat of his own life, but he couldn’t hide his fear of an unknown place.
Beyond the gate.
The person walking in front of him was someone he hated.
I’ve never met the opposing Pokémon, but they’re no worse than themselves in any way.
That’s why I didn’t like it.
How happy it was when the person was torn apart by a single mistake.
Just thirty minutes ago, he thought he was dead, but he suddenly appeared in his own home and threatened his life.
I don’t know if I can call that “he.”
At his words, he pauses, turns his back and smiles, revealing his teeth.
No, I can’t even describe it as smiling.
My jaw goes up and my teeth come out, but I think that’s more like a growl.
“Almost there. ”
I could feel the light gradually on the edge of the dark forest, as he said.
What he had shrunk gave justification to the shrunken self, saying that the heavy air in this forest was also involved.
However, I couldn’t help but struggle.
The place he left was not at the end of the forest, but an artificially constructed vacancy inside the forest, with unknown black spheres lying all over the floor.
I thought it might look like a stone, but when I focused on it, I could see it wriggling like a living stone.
I’ve never heard of a living stone.
“Hey, what’s that? ”
Someone said humans are curious animals, and the man asked him a question to satisfy that curiosity.
He pauses at the man’s question and turns and looks at him.
“They made the same choice as you. ”
“All of them? ”
The man looks around and says, “This is ridiculous.”
Even as I glanced at it, I coughed because the number seemed to have surpassed the cloth.
I thought I’d made a choice I couldn’t turn back, but I’d rather die right now.
The man took a deep breath to calm his coarse breath, nodding his head to make sure he was ready for his mind.
“You may begin. ”
The man says he slowly approaches and reaches out.
The man picks up the black piece in his hand and stands there for a while, begging him to eat it.
I felt awkward, but the man swallowed the piece, holding his mind to eating the marble and not eating it.
“Towards the same dream that never breaks. ”
At the same time, the man’s gaze darkens.
