“He keeps saying Spider-Man killed Chairman Jo. He’s not in his right mind to the point where the police are considering reevaluating the drug test.”
“Spider-Man? Ha… he’s completely lost it.”
Seorin chuckled and closed her eyes. Then, a sudden thought flashed through her mind.
Spider-Man? Spider-Man?
It was because of the middle-aged man she had seen at Mrs. Son’s house not long ago. The moment when she wondered about the incongruous spider tattoo on his gentle image.
‘Could it be…’
But the voice of Mrs. Son echoing in her mind pieced together the puzzle like a jigsaw.
[Dash]If… if you were to witness Chairman Jo’s last moments… what would you want to say?In an instant, Serin covered the bursting scream with her hands. Although there was no decisive evidence, she couldn’t help but think that Mrs. Son might be the one who pursued Chairman Jo and personally took care of him.
Mrs. Son—someone.
Once a glamorous and elegant woman, now a white-haired elderly lady, she was a powerful figure in the underworld, known as the queen of the underworld, who had dominated the underworld for decades.
Indeed, the underworld was not a business where one could easily make a living.
Moreover, given that Mrs. Son, with her clear give-and-take capabilities, encountered a debtor after twenty years, her anger might have been as intense as his.
It was Mrs. Son!
Mrs. Son directly handled Chairman Jo.
But Serin couldn’t speak those words aloud. It was a logic based on mere speculation without accurate evidence, and there was no way to prove that logic.
“Why are you thinking like that?”
Taejun’s voice delved into her deep contemplation. Now fully conscious, Serin met Taejun’s gaze filled with dark desire.
“Haven’t we decided to live our lives now?”
Saying that, he kissed her neck. The hot lips licked her skin as if to burn it.
As the electrifying sensation rushed through, Serin clenched the bedsheet roughly and whispered.
“That’s right. But… there’s still one more person.”
“Who?”
Taejun, vigorously caressing her body, asked.
“Heo Gyeongjun… I’m talking about Heo Gyeongjun.”
Another guy who deserved punishment.
Heo Gyeongjun had temporarily faded into the background due to Chairman Jo’s attention, but he was no less of a criminal.
However, Taejun, smiling as if it weren’t a problem, gave her short kisses on the lips multiple times.
“Why are you smiling? What, something good happened?”
“Well, sort of.”
“What is it?”
“In fact, Heo Gyeongjun is someone we don’t need to worry about.”
“Why?”
“Heo Gyeongjun is being investigated tomorrow, right? Then, watch the news tomorrow. You’ll be thrilled too.”
“What is it! Tell me! I can’t sleep!”
At Serin’s urging, Taejun reluctantly revealed.
“The prosecutor in charge is a very ruthless person. Well-known for thoroughly investigating figures in politics and business. So, you might not know, but if that prosecutor decides to investigate Heo Gyeongjun, it won’t be a piece of cake.”
Although Serin didn’t know whom Taejun was referring to, his words gave her a tingling feeling at the end of her heart.
Indeed, there was no mercy for the one who committed a crime.
Now, smiling, Serin kissed his lips.
“So, shall we… start living our lives now?”
Meanwhile, at that moment, Heo Gyeongjun was reporting to the prosecutor’s office.
[Don’t worry too much, Mae-hyeong. I’ve firmly explained, so they won’t treat you too harshly.]“By the way, do you know who the prosecutor in charge is?”
[No, not yet. But I’ve applied some pressure. The person who’s not afraid to handle such a case should be a newbie. So, don’t worry too much and come back after the investigation.] “Where did that happen? Chairman Jo is also dead, you know.” [Exactly. Now that the sinner is dead, even if your brother-in-law turns everything upside down to Chairman Jo, no one can prove anything, and what has your brother-in-law done, covering up Chairman Jo’s sins? It’s not like he committed murder.]In response to his brother-in-law Kim Minjun’s words, Heo Gyeongjun nodded.
Yes, except for the incident involving Chairman Jo, he had done his best in every case, making him almost transparent in other matters. So, there might be nothing to expose besides that incident.
That fact, to some extent, brought him a bit of comfort.
However, once he arrived at the prosecutor’s office and sat in the interrogation room, anxiety returned. Perhaps it was because of his mood, but the atmosphere at the prosecutor’s office felt particularly chilly.
“It should be okay. It will be fine. Still, my brother-in-law has some influence in this direction, doesn’t he?”
He clung to the hope that only a rookie prosecutor would be assigned.
How anxiously he waited! Finally, he heard a knock, and the door opened.
But when an unusually sinister figure entered, Gyeongjun’s brain went on a brief buffering moment.
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I have too much on my plate.”
That face, where had he seen it before?
A haphazard face with warm hazel eyes that left a lasting impression. However, contrary to that impression, his record was merciless, almost murderous!
“No, how…”
He had said it would be only a rookie prosecutor!
“Unexpected, right? I understand. But I had no choice. Even though I didn’t want to take on this case, it seemed burdensome because of the former police chief, so…”
“!”
“So, I reluctantly volunteered.”
Damn it! He stepped on a pile of shit!
As he smiled, revealing his white, even teeth, the warm sunshine seemed to emanate from the cold air of the prosecutor’s office.
But never be deceived by that brightness.
He was none other than,
“I’m the prosecutor in charge, Wi Seungjun.”
Because he was the crazy dog of the prosecutor’s office.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
