After roughly settling for a late lunch, Line and Juhyuk headed back to the prosecutor’s office. However, reporters were swarming there.
Line couldn’t even imagine that these reporters were here for her.
“Are you Prosecutor Jin La-in? Please answer a few questions about the Taesung Gate case!”
Reporters began to pour out questions as they pleased. Line, with a stern face, entered the prosecutor’s office without responding to any of them.
“They are really annoying.”
Such a thing had never happened before… She thought it was undoubtedly Geum Moran’s doing to create psychological pressure.
Upon returning to her seat, Line sharpened her focus like sharpening a knife and reorganized the investigation plan. If there was an unchanged fact, Line’s goal was solely Geum Moran. Na Songrim and Na Songwoon were just side issues.
“If Chairman Na doesn’t respond by today, we’ll get an arrest warrant.”
Juhyuk looked at Line with a pause.
“How are you going to get a warrant for a witness?”
“Senior, Chairman Na is not a simple witness. In fact, isn’t even summoning him as a witness a very thoughtful consideration?”
It wasn’t entirely incorrect. As long as the Future Strategy Office was at stake, Chairman Na couldn’t be free.
However, summoning Chairman Na as a suspect was something that would shock even within the prosecutor’s office. Certainly, Chief Prosecutor would not just let that happen.
“The Chief Prosecutor looks like he could be the Director of Taesung Legal Affairs to an outsider.”
“I’m serious.”
Line thought for a moment.
“Still, is there any other way? We have to do it.”
“Even if the Chief Prosecutor can endure it…”
“Even if he endures it, enduring… won’t it flow into Taesung anyway? It’s asking Taesung to listen.”
Juhyuk finally realized what strategy Line was unfolding.
“Before that, if we can specify the charges against Na Songlim a bit more, Chairman Na won’t be able to endure it easily.”
“And also, Chairman Na’s case, we have to push it. That’s the only way we can catch Geum Moran.”
According to Line’s plan, the Chief Prosecutor conveyed the internal atmosphere to Director Taesung.
If what he said was true and Prosecutor Jin La-in summoned Chairman Na as a suspect, it wasn’t a risk that the Legal Affairs Director could handle.
The Legal Affairs Director was uneasy while preparing for the trial with the top-notch defense team Chairman Na had arranged.
“Everything is proceeding smoothly, without any problems.”
The Legal Affairs Director reassured Chairman Na with a lie. All the words coming out of the Legal Affairs Director’s mouth were words instructed by Geum Moran.
However, despite the Legal Affairs Director’s heavily packaged words, Chairman Na’s expression was dark.
“That’s why these newcomers are frightening. It seems like they want to blow up something big and try their hand at it, but they’ve ridden the wrong horse for a long time. Am I someone like those small players? Tsk…”
“Yes, Chairman. I’ll take care of the Chairman’s summons investigation on my end.”
“It won’t be more trouble if he doesn’t attend.”
The Legal Affairs Director didn’t meet Chairman Na’s eyes.
“Like search and seizure, or issuing an arrest warrant.”
“Oh… Really… Would they go that far?”
The Legal Affairs Director’s unsure attitude irritated Chairman Na. Even if Chairman Na’s years of service were coming to an end, he still had his unique intuition and experience.
“I’ll try to contact the prosecution.”
Chairman Na stared straight at the Legal Affairs Director. Feeling Chairman Na’s gaze, the Legal Affairs Director struggled not to tremble.
“Alright.”
“Oh, aren’t all those Chief Prosecutor guys my juniors?”
Chairman Na expressed dissatisfaction and tapped his desk with his fingertips.
“Songlim, check the reexamination results and decide if he’s attending.”
“Chairman, you don’t need to worry. I will take care of it all on my end…”
As if Chairman Na didn’t want to talk any longer, he turned his gaze away from the Legal Affairs Director.
“Yes, I’ll prepare as you said.”
At that moment, breaking news flashed on the three TVs in the chairman’s office. The subtitle read, ‘Taesung Chairman’s son Na Songlim, positive for drug suspicions in reexamination results.’
“What’s that? Turn up the TV volume.”
The Legal Affairs Director called the secretary to turn on the TV volume. Instead of leaving immediately, the secretary approached the Legal Affairs Director and whispered slightly.
“Sir, there’s a call from the legal department. They want you to check your phone…”
The Legal Affairs Director turned around and checked the phone. The trusted Chief Prosecutor couldn’t play the supporting role, and eventually, Chairman Na found himself in a situation where he would be summoned as a suspect.
The Legal Affairs Director hurriedly tried to call the Chief Prosecutor, but Chairman Na’s veto came down.
“Legal Affairs Director, how are you handling the work!”
Chairman Na, slamming the desk, stood up from his seat. The Legal Affairs Director almost trembled, thinking Chairman Na might suspect he had taken his phone.
“Oh… Chairman, you don’t have to worry too much.”
There was no time for a strategy meeting with Geum Moran. The Legal Affairs Director was in the dark about how to calm down Chairman Na, who was furious.
“Chairman, I’m also not from a prosecutor background. Normally, in a comprehensive investigation like this, we apply pressure. It can be considered a kind of investigative technique.”
The Legal Affairs Director’s hand holding the phone was sweaty.
“Chairman, considering the current situation, it wouldn’t be bad to show an image of sincerely cooperating with the prosecution investigation.”
“What kind of talk is that again?”
“Since Chairman is directly attending, claiming innocence and coming would not be a bad judgment.”
As the Legal Affairs Director changed his attitude as if flipping the back of his hand, Chairman Na’s gaze penetrated deeply.
After much deliberation, he accepted the Legal Affairs Director’s opinion. Even if he was an underling, in legal matters, he had to follow the judgment of the Legal Affairs Director.
This news also reached Song Kang.
Watching the article featuring Line, Song Kang became more disturbed when he learned about Chairman Na’s summoning investigation attendance news.
He leaned back against the back of the chair, closing his eyes for a moment. The prospect that the synergy between his father, Chairman Na, and Prosecutor Jin La-in wouldn’t be good dominated his thoughts.
Song Kang opened his eyes and looked at the article again. Despite the pouring questions from the media and the barrage of flashes, she walked confidently, not yielding at all, and her determined appearance made his spine chill.
Song Kang, who had hoped that Chairman Na would attend and cooperate with the investigation, still couldn’t feel at ease if only Chairman Na and the defense team went.
He instructed to find a way for a defense attorney to accompany him.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
