“Consistently negligent throughout the investigation, are you finally leaving on your own accord?”
“Isn’t the standard for negligence too subjective?”
Kim Yujun’s mouth curved up.
The moment the tenuous grip on reason was severed, Jiho’s entire body boiled.
There was no justification for detaining someone who wasn’t even a criminal, let alone someone claiming to be in poor condition. If Kim Yujun, who knew how to exploit legal loopholes, was going to press him more effectively, then so be it.
Jiho laughed with a fiery breath.
“Well then, shall we act objectively from now on?”
“The person who knows well says to do it according to the law. According to the law.”
At his impudent scoff, Jiho called out to Hojin.
“Prosecutor Hojin.”
“Yes, senior.”
“Right now, draft a criminal record and attach it to the investigation records.”
At the mention of a “criminal record,” the eyes of the defense attorneys simultaneously shook.
“No! Prosecutor Kang!”
“Didn’t the witness particularly not want to do things ‘according to the law’?”
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. There was an intention to respond to Kim Yujun’s provocation with an even greater provocation.
“After this time, Mr. Kim Yujun will be converted into a suspect.”
“…….”
“If you want to know what changes when a witness becomes a suspect, you can ask your defense attorney in detail.”
He didn’t forget the advice to actively utilize many defense attorneys. Whether Jiho’s move was refreshing or not, Hojin and the investigator’s shoulders shook lightly.
“Oh, and.”
As he organized the spread-out documents one by one, Jiho muttered.
“After returning home today, the suspect should focus on managing his condition.”
“…….”
“With a refreshed body and mind, I’ll see you again tomorrow.”
“Huh! Is there anywhere that sets up the investigation schedule so unilaterally?”
What, are they going to fight? Despite the defense attorney’s sharp complaint, Jiho busily organized the desk.
“The suspect side said they needed to leave right away due to a condition issue.”
Isn’t that so? When asked this, Kim Yujun’s expression crumpled properly. Well, he shouldn’t have done what he was called here for in the first place. Jiho let out a bitter laugh.
“If you can’t finish what you’re supposed to do today, you should at least study the rest. Isn’t that right?”
“Study the rest?”
For a moment, Kim Yujun’s chest swelled significantly. It seemed to be the first time he, the successor of the well-respected Myungjin Group, had received such treatment.
“What wasn’t done today will be done tomorrow. If it’s not done tomorrow, then the day after. The investigation will continue.”
Now that Kim Yujun had been converted into a suspect, there were plenty of ways to force him.
In the worst case, requesting an arrest warrant on the grounds of obstruction of justice and non-cooperation was also an option.
“Well then. I’ll see you at the same time and place tomorrow.”
It wasn’t the plan from the beginning.
Since it was a significant case, he tried to approach it step by step, but there was no way to handle the high-handedness beyond a certain point.
Jiho only wanted to vividly show Kim Yujun the reality that would come his way in the future.
“If I endure for just two more days, can I see Mr. Jiho every day?”
A gelato shop near the Trevi Fountain. Lajin, who had been waiting in line since morning, thought of Prosecutor Kang Jiho.
Having completed all the photo shoot schedules in France, Lajin crossed over to Italy late last night.
Is the important matter Prosecutor Kang Jiho mentioned somewhat organized now? Could she go straight to his house once she arrives in Korea? She was filled with things she wanted to ask him.
Expectations and excitement for the future coexisted with a sudden fear.
“What flavor should I get, unnie?”
“Oh? I want strawberry flavor.”
“Here, pistachio is famous. Let’s each get one and share.”
At Haeun’s sweet suggestion, Lajin nodded her head.
At the end of a long line, after ordering the desired flavor and receiving change, La Jin had Venus-embossed coins catch her eye as she checked the coins rattling in her palm.
“Haeun, look at this coin.”
“Oh! It’s Venus.”
“I wanted this coin even before.”
It felt like encountering enormous luck.
Though the coin was just a coin, having a coin with her favorite drawing was a stroke of luck. It was precisely why she was about to go to the Trevi Fountain to throw a coin. Smiling brightly, La Jin tucked the Venus-embossed coin inside her bag.
“Do you want to keep it as a memento?”
“Not as a memento. When I come with Mr. Jiho next time, I’ll throw it then.”
Before coming to Italy, Haeun had talked about this.
If you throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain once, you will return to Rome, and if you throw it twice, you will fall in love.
Believe it or not, today La Jin planned to throw only one coin towards the fountain. That way, when Prosecutor Kang Jiho returns with her to Rome, they can throw the Venus coin together.
“Ha. Okay.”
Looking up at the cloudless blue sky, La Jin poured out her excited emotions.
The two of them headed towards the Trevi Fountain, each holding their gelato.
They quietly passed by buildings that bore the traces of time and cobblestone streets that gleamed smoothly.
“Haeun, after the luxury workshop shoot in the afternoon, let’s play as much as we want once it’s over.”
Since Haeun seemed to have a lot of necessary schedules, the two of them could only find time in the evening after work was done. She felt sorry for keeping Haeun only at the photo shoot in such a good place.
“Anytime is welcome when it comes to playing.”
“Unnie, thanks for following me around.”
La Jin smiled cheerfully, feeding Haeun strawberry-flavored ice cream.
“What’s the thanks for? We came all the way to see the Trevi Fountain.”
“Make a wish at the fountain too.”
“I do have something I want to wish for. Is it too much to ask for my bodyguard to quit Myungjin soon?”
Haeun’s feelings still seemed to be progressing.
Perhaps there was some communication between them when La Jin was caught by Kim Yujun at the airport. Haeun confessed that her bodyguard didn’t have a girlfriend.
“Unnie, the angle is nice here. Let’s take a picture.”
They found a spot against a cream-colored wall with elaborate carvings. La Jin handed her ice cream to Haeun and took out her phone.
“When did my phone turn off? Haeun, lend me a power bank.”
Until the phone was powered up, the two were too preoccupied with feeding each other ice cream on the side of the street.
Finally, when the phone was turned on, a flood of missed calls poured in as if waiting.
“Huh?”
As La Jin read the message sent by her mother’s caregiver, her pupils widened as if about to overflow.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
