“Prosecutor Jin, how could you hit Na Songgang like that?”
Prosecutor Choi Juhyuk followed Lain with an even more troubled expression than the parties involved.
“Senior, it was mutual. No, it was self-defense. Who grabs someone’s wrist like that…!”
Lain, her ears red with anger, blinked rapidly and then quickly stopped talking. Her hurried steps towards the office reflected her unsettled mind.
Already feeling suffocated, she felt breathless at the sight of the mountain of evidence filling the office.
There were supposedly 100,000 pages of evidence, and their sheer volume made the room feel cramped.
Lain sighed deeply and flopped down into her seat. Juhyuk sat next to her, perching on the documents piled up to hip height, and crossed his arms.
“You’ve had a tough time. The legal affairs director seemed determined when he came. I was worried outside, thinking you might lose your temper.”
Lain didn’t react much to Juhyuk’s words. She just sat there, deep in thought. About the man who had grabbed her wrist, and the case surrounding him…
“Strange, isn’t it?”

Lain nodded at Juhyuk’s question.
“But why? Why specifically Na Songgang?”
Juhyuk’s question mirrored Lain’s doubts. Na Songgang was the eldest son of the Taeseong family and the son of the late official wife.
Moreover, he was the only person who could take responsibility for Taeseong Group’s future. Although Na Chairman had remarried and had a son and a daughter, their reputation wasn’t good.
It was a well-known fact that among Na Chairman’s children, Na Songgang was the only suitable successor.
“Considering the public interest in this case, Taeseong wouldn’t want to just pin it on anyone and move on.”
Even so, there were too many oddities. Lain stood up and randomly picked up a piece of evidence.
It was a family photo of Songgang’s childhood, with his mother and Na Chairman. The volume of evidence was overwhelming, but the content was all similar.
Na Songgang’s height, weight, blood type, university, and military service record. Why on earth did they send this sort of information? The evidence pointed in one direction.
Na Songgang, as if to say, ‘take this man away quickly.’

Lain had been meticulously examining every piece of evidence they had sent. Each one was hardly evidence, necessitating a thorough check from start to finish.
“I found out Na Songgang is famous for being aloof in the industry. He’s not unreasonable, though, and has clear lines and standards. Ironically, it’s Na Chairman’s new wife’s children who cause the scandals.”
She remembered the look on his face, as if he had a lot to say. But why didn’t he speak up? Surely, he didn’t need to consider the legal office staff’s feelings in his position.
The case was like an open-book test, showing who the culprit was.
But why did it feel so unsettling? The higher-ups were pushing for a quick resolution, but the conviction of the two prosecutors was holding onto the case.
‘There shouldn’t be anyone wronged under the law.’
If only the involved party would step up and cry out their injustice.
“I’ve given Na Songgang a lifeline again today. But he didn’t respond to that question, and the attorneys were all silent, invoking the right to remain silent. It’s strange. It seems like they don’t care if he gets a prison sentence. Do they not know, or is there a reason they have to bear it even if they do?”
“The phrase ‘to bear it’ indicated that Lain was convinced he was not the culprit. The testimony about the signature ‘NaSong[dash]’ alone could not conclusively prove his guilt.
Moreover, the more evidence Taeseong’s legal office submitted, the more Director Na Songgang seemed to be out of the line of suspicion.
The most notable aspect was the documents he had approved. He rarely signed documents, mostly using a seal for approval. Although not yet subjected to detailed forensic analysis, at a glance, the handwriting didn’t seem to be his.

Moreover, considering whether he always used a fountain pen, the handwritten documents all seemed to be written with the same pen. As more evidence was collected, it showed Director Na Songgang’s consistent work routine.
“Is Na Chairman the real culprit? Is the father sacrificing his son? Is that it?”
Lain picked up the evidence on her desk and examined it closely. The photographs of the documents signed ‘NaSong[dash]’—if it wasn’t Director Na Songgang’s signature, then whose was it?
“What can we do? Even if he’s caught in a trap, if he doesn’t struggle, it’s over for him.”
A trap… From Lain’s perspective, he was indeed caught in a proper trap.
If he didn’t fight with all his might to get out, he would be sentenced, and during his imprisonment, many changes could occur in Taeseong.
In the worst case, even the position of the next leader might not be guaranteed. Na Songgang, of all people, should know this best…
Throughout the investigation, his attitude seemed like something was tightly holding him back… as if someone was covering his eyes and ears.
