Martial Arts System
chapter-11

Currently, I was sitting in the backseat of the police car with Lucas.

Looking at the nearby buildings go by until I heard vibrations coming from my pocket.

*Brrr* *Brrr*

"Hmm." I took my phone from my pocket and saw that I had 30 missed calls from my dad and mom.

I saw that they called me again, but I didn't notice them calling before, because the phone was on vibration settings, because I was at school.

"Hey, mom" I said after answering the call

"What do you mean hey mom?! Where are you?!" I heard loud scream from the phone

"Well.. stuff happened."

"What do you mean?! Where are you?"

"Uhh… I am going to the police station." I said while sweating

"…" Only pure silence was coming from the phone

"…What?" Was the only reply I got

"Uhh yeah, long story, I will tell when I get back home." and before my mom could say anything else, I quickly hang up.

Probably going to get yelled at home, but I am going to deal with that until I get there.

For now, I will focus on the present.

"Well, how was your mom?" I heard Lucas ask me with a smug smile.

"Well… I am going to get yelled at once I get home that's for sure."

"Hahaha, no worries, you might get into news after this." Lucas said and continued "You captured infamous serial killer one arm Irkum after all~"

"Yeah… I hope at least some families get the justice they deserved.." I said with a sigh while thinking all the families who lost their loved ones because of one man's desire to cause harm to others.

"Yeah.. now that I think about it, Irkum has been on loose for the last 3 years," Lucas said afterward.

"3 Years?!" I thought aloud with shock."How come he wasn't caught, it wasn't like he was hiding."

"It is indeed strange.." Lucas mumbled and then he got a realization which made him pale and he got closer to me to whisper."Maybe one of the higher ranking police officers has been protecting him?"

"!" I widened my eyes and clenched my fists.

"Where is Irkum currently?" I asked while whispering towards Lucas.

"One of polices took him with their police cars.." He answered.

"..He should be at the police station already right?" I asked

"..Yes I think so.." Lucas answered me back with a grim look on his face

"Call your parents quickly, ask them is Irkum there yet," I told Lucas in hurry and Lucas quickly took his phone to dial his parents' number

and our worst fear came true.

It seems that Irkum suddenly disappeared and the police who took him got "knocked out" by Irkum and he managed to escape.

"…" Lucas hang up his phone call and just sat there with an angry face and his fists tightly clenched which made his palms bleed.

"..Let's go after him.." I told him with a whisper so the policeman can't hear us who was driving the car, I continued. "He can't be far and we can't let him escape, he is still very injured."

"Yeah.. let's kill that bastard," Lucas said afterward with a cold gaze.

'What a joke… Trained policeman getting knocked out by the man who had his shoulder completely crushed so he couldn't even use his last remaining arm.' I thought to myself with rising anger.

After a few minutes more sitting at the police car, we finally arrived at the police station.

Now we are supposed to be questioned by police officers, but we have to escape somehow to go after Irkum.

"Any idea's how we are going to do this," Lucas asked me while whispering to my ear and I might know what plan to use.

"Yes.. follow my lead," I said and opened the police car's door and stepped out.

I was currently standing outside of a typical police station, while a lot of police officers were running outside in the building, probably going after Irkum or something.

Not every police officer is corrupted.

and whoever was helping Irkum, must keep the act as well.

but since the police station is quite chaotic, my plan is even easier to execute.

"Got a lighter?" I asked Lucas who also got out of the police car.

"Yeah, why?" He asked me and took a lighter from his pocket and gave it to me.

"And give me your cap." I asked him which he gave it to me afterward and I put it in my head to completely hide my face

"You should probably quit smoking as well, Lucas," I commented because he was carrying a lighter, even though he was supposed to stop smoking before the tournament starts.

"Yes mom, well what is your plan?" Lucas commented with slight annoyance

"I will make things even more chaotic," I said and started walking inside the police station while Lucas followed me close by.

Opening the doors to the police station, there were registration desks where you will report a crime and multiple desks where polices were working on their cases.

I looked towards my left and I saw many doors leading to officers' rooms and looking around the room, I saw many cameras recording everything in the police station.

"Stay here and be prepared to run from the door," I told him and he only nodded while looking at me with confusion, but I didn't have time to explain.

I quickly took off my school jacket so they can't recognize me.

I was currently looking at the kitchen area of the police station.

Since the kitchen area, where police officers usually eat is their break area, there won't be any cameras.

but I have to get there without any cameras seeing me so they can't accuse me of anything.

Since a lot of people were walking everywhere in the police station in a hurry, I simply walked beside another police officer, who didn't give me any attention since he was busy looking at the papers in his hands.

I easily dodged at least 3 cameras by doing that and I finally saw their kitchen after one of the police officers left the kitchen; I saw ovens, microwaves, etc, so it must be there.

and I only needed a microwave for my plan to work.

I stopped following the police officer who was looking at the papers and I quickly turned right towards the kitchen area, I kept my head down so that the cameras can't catch my face.

It might look suspicious, but I don't have time to worry and since I took my school jacket off, they can't properly recognize me, even if they think I was at the fault of the incident which is about to happen.

I walked towards the door where the kitchen area should be located and looked around me, no one noticed me yet, everyone just kept working or running from the door somewhere.

I opened the door a little bit to see if someone was there.

but luckily for me, it seems it's their work hour. I quickly sneaked in.

I ran towards the microwave and opened it and put the timer on for 3 minutes.

and then I lit up the lighter and threw it in and then closed the microwave.

Instantly I saw sparks coming from it.

but it will take at least a minute for the proper fire to be lit.

I quickly ran towards the door, but before I managed to arrive there, suddenly it was opened up by some stoic looking police officer who was currently looking at his phone.

I quickly hide behind a nearby wall, but I heard his footsteps closing in.

*Beep* *Beep*

I heard his phone start ringing.

*Clank*

He answered it and started talking."Where is he?"

I couldn't hear who he was talking to, I only managed to hear his words.

"He made quite of a mess today, I told him to stay put – we have bigger plans." He said with anger in his tone.

'Is he talking about Irkum?' I thought to myself while listening closely.

"I don't care if he kills for fun, but when I order him to do something, then I expect him to follow the rules!"

'This bastard!' Hearing what he said just made me even angrier.

"Whatever! Just tell him that I will meet him tomorrow." He roared and ended the call.

"Is that fire?" The stoic-looking police officer then said while looking at the microwave.

He started walking towards the microwave, ignoring the place where I was hiding.

He passed by me and I quickly rushed towards him to put him in a chokehold.

"KUGH." the Police officer started squirming while trying to look behind him.

"Where is Irkum?!" I asked with a cold voice.

"I-I-I don't know what you are talking about!" He said while his face turned pale because he knew I heard his phone call.

"Don't fucking lie to me!" I screamed and then continued to threaten him."Say the truth or you will find next moments very painful."

"Y-you don't know who you are dealing with, you brat!" Then he started squirming even more.

"Let me go or you and your families will be in grave danger." He continued with a threat which made me just angrier.

"You should have just told the truth, but you had to threaten my family," I said with a cold tone and I put more strength on the hold

"Kugkgkgk." Old police officer just started making weird noises and his face started turning purple.

"Last chance or you will find breathing very difficult," I told him and stopped strangling him waiting for his next words

"F-fine, please have mercy I have a family." He started pleading

"I don't give a shit!" I roared finding his pleading disgusting, who knows how many families have been destroyed by his corruption."Tell me where Irkum is and I will let you go."

"F-fine, he is in the warehouse on the east side of the city, in the harbor Nr.22."

"Thank you," I said and put him back in the chokehold and then twisted his neck, killing him.

'My first life was taken in this world… I thought I already got used to it in my past life, but I guess you never do.' I thought to myself and tried to stop thinking about it and dragged the dead police officer to the closet in the kitchen area and put him there to hide for few hours at least.

'Scums are still around no matter what world I am in..' I thought to myself while thinking about my past life and all the corruption.

I started breathing deeply, while still having my hands stained in blood. 'Did I have to kill him… No, I had to! I already did enough mistakes in my previous life – I won't have my new family suffer as well because of my idiotic mistakes!'

I used to kill a lot of scumbags in my previous life…

Dictators… Tyrants… Even common criminals…

I killed a lot of people who ruined other people's lives…

But doing that, I started to have a lot of enemies…

Everything I did, never came into the light, because I had the government's support.

I killed people for them… And they didn't bat an eye if I killed some criminals in my free time.

Now I had to kill that corrupted police officer because he definitely would inform Irkum that I am coming and make all policemen search for me as well because I attacked one of the high-ranking officers.

but I killed him now and I need to make sure no one will find out, what I did today…

That's why I hid him in the closet, close to the microwave.

After a minute or so, it will explode and hopefully, it will make a big enough fire to burn his body.

I can only hope.

I quickly ran towards the door and opened it a little bit to see if anyone looking.

and no one was, so I quickly opened the door and started walking again with my head down towards Lucas who was still standing anxiosuly, close to the door.

Soon police officers might question where we are since we already arrived a few minute's ago and we are supposed to be questioned about what happened in the alley.

But soon all hell will break loose.

"You ready?" I asked Lucas after arriving next to him.

"Yeah.. will it happen soon?" He asked after sighing with relief seeing me back.

"In a moment," I said and started waiting until I heard a loud noise.

*Boom..*

*BEEP* *BEEP*

Suddenly a loud explosion was coming from the kitchen area and loud beeping noise started coming from somewhere and all the police officers suddenly stood up and started panicking everywhere, some braver ones went to the kitchen area's door, they opened it and saw huge fire.

"FIRE!" One of them yelled.

"That is our cue, I know where Irkum is, let's hurry!" I ran towards doors that led out of the police station before Lucas could answer back.

Then after we ran out of the doors, I quickly ran to the closest taxi and opened the door to go in with Lucas.

"East Side Harbor please," I told the taxi driver who simply nodded and started driving under Lucas' confused gaze.
