Along with the God of Law - Chapter 399



Only Noblemtl

399.

Mr. Song, the youngest legal clerk in the second criminal litigation team at Ohdaeyang Law Firm, was so surprised by the presence of a customer who had just arrived that he almost spit out the coffee he was drinking.

“Aren’t you Prosecutor Kang Hyeon?”

“… I guess so. Does it seem like Kang Hyun?”

“Wow… I heard that among our attorneys, there are a few who are close to Prosecutor Kang Hyeon…”

“But why did you come to our litigation team?”

“…well?”

Manager Song, whose curiosity grew as the team members whispered, stretched his head out to see Kang Hyeon in person, and lifted his hooves to turn the radar screen.

But it wasn’t easy. He simply greeted his team leader from Songmu Team 2, then went into a small conference room inside and didn’t come out for a long time.

“… Should I ask you to take a picture?”

“Would you mind taking a picture for me if you’re busy? Oh, and I told you to be careful right now.”

“yes?”

A deputy spoke to Manager Song in a whisper. Her words were a little scary.

“Prosecutor Kang Hyeon is working on a case with Attorney Kim Han-guk. But it seems like the situation is not going well. He said he skipped Attorney Jang and Attorney Pa-byun and reported directly to the head attorney.”

“… Really?”

“really.”

“Could that be why Prosecutor Kang Hyeon is here now?”

“I guess so.”

At the deputy’s words, Manager Song became thoughtful and quickly moved to his seat monitor. As the youngest, he had a lot to do.

Attorney Kim’s team in charge had to get scolded for making an error in checking the next date’s schedule, and they also had to calculate the delivery fee and recognition fee…

Before she was a fan of Kang Hyun, who showed off his star quality as a fellow legal professional, she was an office worker at a law firm.

As a working person, I feel like if I get interested in something, something will happen and I will be unable to do anything else because I am busy with that thing.

Manager Song, caught up in that feeling, turned his head, returned to his seat, and decided to concentrate on what he was doing.

But as an office worker, Manager Song’s intuition was so great. His anxious premonition turned out to be correct.

Bam!

It wasn’t a small office, and we were a large and busy team, so the sound of the door opening wasn’t that loud, but it sounded like thunder.

When everyone turned their heads, they saw the 2nd team leader of the criminal prosecution team, Senior Attorney Jang Gyu-hong, Attorney Kim Han-guk, and Kang Hyeon who had joined late.

however.

“Manager Song. Would you like to come in for a moment?”

“…?”

Those were the team leader’s words.

“Me?”

“Yes, Manager Song.”

and.

“Are you Manager Song?”

“…!”

Nod, nod.

“My name is Kang Hyun. I would like to ask you something.”

Nod.

Manager Song nodded, unable to speak properly because her body was frozen. She met Kang Hyun’s face straight on and her body trembled slightly as if her breathing had stopped.

Tall and handsome, with an aura of a famous prosecutor?

However, separate from that feeling, there was a sense of uneasiness that was approaching.

‘What kind of look is that?’

Suddenly kidnapped to a conference room, she began to be questioned in front of her team leader, lawyer Jang Gyu-hong, and Kang Hyeon.

“A year ago, you were not in the litigation team but were an advisory secretary in the legal team, right?”

“yes yes.”

Manager Song looked at the data that Kang Hyeon had given him with trembling hands in embarrassment.

It is true that she briefly worked as an administrative assistant, handling attorneys’ scheduling and client relations duties before moving to a legal clerkship, but her secretarial experience lasted only about six months.

“… But I was there for only a very short time.”

“Ah. That’s okay. When you were working at the time, you received from your predecessor the management data for consulting documents, consulting fee time sheet files, right? And the handwritten ledgers.”

“Back then, that was it.”

“That’s fortunate.”

“hmm.”

Manager Song couldn’t help but cower in fear at the sight of the high-ranking officials reacting to his words all at once.

But she was not given time to calm down. Kang Hyun brought up the main topic.

“… I called Chief Song because it was unclear whether the data was still available. It’s a bit old, but I think you asked this law firm for a criminal defense case from someone named ‘Song Du-seung.’”

“… Song Doo-seung? I think I’ve heard that name somewhere.”

What would a rookie clerk know? She just looked at Kang-Hyeon with a puzzled face at the name that seemed familiar.

“There is no record of the case being accepted, and there are no remaining documents. I was wondering if it would be possible to find the attorney who accepted the case at the time or the attorney who performed the case.”

“Why are you asking me that?”

If it were Kang Hyun, he would have the power to meet with Attorney Oh Dae-yang and ask him. He could ask the lawyers around him to trace his past, and in any case, there would be many more effective methods than asking him.

Why on earth?

“I heard that Director Song’s access to his predecessor’s documents had not been removed, and since the secretaries knew about the handed-over content and other work-related matters, I thought it would be easy to confirm. And…”

When Manager Song raised her head with a strange expression and looked at the faces of the people accompanying her, she realized that the current situation was a little strangely twisted.

Our fearless and generous detective Songmu Team 2 leader was rolling his eyes in thought, and the face of the ocean and fearless attorney Jang Gyu-hong, who was said to have a wide-open path as a partner attorney, had a very dark complexion.

‘What is this?’

Even Attorney Kim Han-guk looked at himself with an expression like that of a warrior with a strong sense of mission to protect his country and people.

“… And, we need to keep the data access a bit secret. So that we can finish it on our own.”

“!”

It was only after Kang Hyun finished speaking that she realized.

The fact that he was trying to obtain information from himself that was difficult for the five oceans to give away, and even more so, that he did not want to give away.

“You can do it, right?”

“Uh, um, ah, I… .”

For her, who was just thinking about what to have for lunch, what happened today was clearly a shocking and surprising event.

Before she knew it, she was shaking hands with Kang Hyun and nodding. She realized that her thoughts and actions were separate.

“I’ll try.”

The fact that my mind is completely rejecting it, but my actions are already nodding.

‘Can I nod my head to this?’

Kang Hyun recruited several employees with past secretarial experience, such as Song Ju-rim of the Songmu team, and several current advisory secretaries within the law firm, and began the task of finding ‘Song Du-seung’s lawyer’ who used to be affiliated with Odaeyang.

At the same time, there was some fairly positive news from the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

[Breaking News, Central District Prosecutors’ Office and Supreme Prosecutors’ Office Public Investigation Department Chief Prosecutor Wang Nam-ryong suddenly indicted.]

[Is this the beginning of fair and just law enforcement or a fight within the prosecution?]

The joint investigation team led by Kim Si-hwan identified Wang Nam-ryong and recognized his criminal suspicions, and indicted him as the person responsible for the torture of Song Doo-seung.

widely.

Kim Si-hwan, who came to Kang Hyun’s trial office for the first time, seemed to be tired of the reporters’ shutter lights and stared blankly at Kang Hyun’s face for a moment, like a blanket that had spread out.

“The search and seizure was ultimately successful.”

“I knew it.”

A clash between the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office and the Central District Prosecutors’ Office’s joint investigation unit.

In the end, Kim Si-hwan of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office won the victory.

The Central District Prosecutors’ Office’s Joint Investigation Division consists of people who have been trained with a focus on practical senses. When Kang Hyeon took the position of Joint Investigation Division Chief, he also focused on the ‘field’.

No matter how much the Great Sword Airborne Unit tried to block them, they were not the ones to be pushed back. Kang Hyun didn’t change his expression as if it was natural, but he patted Kim Si Hwan for his hard work.

“What are the charges?”

“Abuse of power, illegal confinement, assault, and even cruel acts. Unfortunately, the investigators who assisted in the torture of Song Doo-seung at the time were only roughly identified through the time schedule, and could not be clearly identified.”

“It’s fortunate that we’ve identified Wang Nam-ryong as the suspect. Articles 123, 124, and 125. Even considering the competition, we can seek a sentence of more than 10 years.”

“But in fact, it is safe to say that no key evidence has been found. The prosecution was brought forward because Kang Geum said it was a speed war.”

“Thank you for trusting me. Now it’s my turn.”

“But… .”

Kim Si-hwan’s worried voice continued to reach Kang Hyeon.

What the Joint Investigation Team found was not a report or document that could identify the ‘specific circumstances’. At the time, Wang Nam-ryong commanded the Airborne Investigation Team and secured only the credibility that he was the formal signatory in various systems, but there was only enough evidence to create room for dispute.

As the person in charge of the vast amount of information they found, they may be liable, but it cannot be enough evidence to expose his evil deeds to the world.

“Still, that’s fortunate. Just conducting a search and seizure would be half the success.”

“Thank goodness it worked. What next?”

“In addition to the charges against Wang Nam-ryong, we plan to expand the scope to false accusation for leaking official secrets. We will issue an investigation order and conduct a separate investigation at the police station. Please place all the staff of the Public Security Department of the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office under investigation at that time. We will prepare to receive the materials and file a complaint against Song Du-seung for false accusation through the prosecutors of the 5th Division.”

“… Would it be okay for Mr. Song Doo-seung to personally show his face to the media? If there is no evidence… .”

Prosecutor Kim Si-hwan, who saw through Kang Hyeon’s intentions, said in surprise.

Additionally, if we launch a separate investigation and increase the scale of the war to the point where Song Doo-seung’s face becomes known, and if we gain the authority to use public power to find the prosecutors who were in the Public Security Bureau at the time, we will be able to more easily bring the ‘torture technicians’ to testify.

However, because there was movement in many directions starting with the trial to overturn the missing person’s verdict for Song Doo-seung, those who were going to run away had already run away and the evidence was hidden, making the investigation difficult.

In short, this meant that even if the suspects were tracked down more vigorously to identify them and the court acknowledged that they were ‘subjects to trial’, the story would likely end up being a complete failure because the bastards had already all run away.

If the scope of the incident expands in this way, Kang Hyeon will ultimately be at a disadvantage in the absence of ‘decisive evidence.’

“Kang Geum… No,”

The expression on his face, unable to finish his sentence, said, ‘It’s dangerous now.’

But Kang Hyun’s expression was still calm. As if he was handling a simple criminal case that they had been working on since their first meeting.

He doesn’t show any signs of tension even when facing off against the monsters of the Great Sword Airborne Division.

“The evidence will eventually come out.”

Kim Si-hwan, who had been looking at Kang Hyeon for a while, smiled softly and shrugged his shoulders as he stood up from his seat.

“Yeah, yeah. What can I do? I have to pull out the roots. Let’s have a glass of wine when we’re done.”

“Thank you for joining us.”

As soon as Kim Si-hwan left, Kang Hyeon immediately opened the case records to prepare for the trial with Wang Nam-ryong and began checking the indictment among the trial records shared electronically in the prosecution system.

And before leaving, Kim Si-hwan repeated the words he had said with a soft smile.

“The evidence… will come out eventually.”

Click! Click!

-Just say one word!

-You are now standing here as the defendant. How do you feel?

-Do you admit the charges?

Wang Nam-ryong stood in front of the Central District Court, bringing all of his subordinate prosecutors and even the investigative staff from the Public Prosecutor’s Office.

The district court even created a separate briefing room just for him.

He spoke briefly and concisely in front of the press with a dignified expression.

“I deny all charges. The truth will come out.”

Click! Click!

As he finished speaking and moved, the press was pushed back.

As a total of about 100 people, including the defense team, headed into the courthouse at the same time, reporters were seen going outside the line without even being able to get in, just flashing their shutter lights.

In this case, the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office was suddenly searched and seized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

This time, Wang Nam-ryong was moving in a thoroughly calculated manner. He was like a huge, heavy iron ball, and he seemed confident that he would not collapse under any circumstances.

By showing that kind of appearance to the public, Kang Hyun intended to go against the public image he had built up until now.

‘I’ll clip your wings.’

This time, it was a trick to create doubts about whether Kang Hyun had made a mistake.

Woof woof.

Baek Hoon-sik, who was watching this from afar, looked at Kang Hyeon with a pressured expression.

Glance.

“… .”

‘Thank goodness. It’s the same.’

I could feel relieved. Kang Hyun still had a blank expression, and as usual, the materials he was holding seemed very light.

“Come on in.”

“All right.”

Kang Hyun’s recent expedition was brief. It also seemed relatively short because Wang Nam-ryong had been thoroughly preparing for the press and had made a big fanfare for his position.

We haven’t even finished collecting the evidence yet.

There is no absolute way to suppress Wang Nam-ryong.

However, Baek Hoon-sik could tell that as time went by, Kang Hyun’s keen senses were weaving things together to create a large net.

Baek Hoon-sik clenched his fists with a seriousness different from his usual self. He had to perform his role without wavering in order to be eligible to watch the performance.

‘Trust me this time too. You are seeing history with your own eyes.’
