Along with the God of Law - Chapter 403
Only Noblemtl
403.
Central District Court Criminal Court.
“… .”
Finally, Prosecutor General Bae Sung-shin and First Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office Do Jin-guk sat side by side in the witness stand.
It was the first time in history that the top prosecutor and a senior prosecutor appeared in the witness stand together, so the commotion and commotion among the audience was natural.
An unbelievable sight.
It was happening right before my eyes.
Thud thud.
“It’s been a long time.”
“… .”
It was Dojin-guk dressed in a formal attire.
He bowed deeply to the prosecutor general who was sitting next to him for a moment, and sat down.
On the other side, Bae Seong-shin, who was already seated, continued to stare straight ahead without even looking at Do Jin-guk.
“… .”
There was no change in expression or behavior, as if he didn’t care who was sitting next to him.
I even felt a conviction that not a single sloppy action could be tolerated in such an important trial.
Baesungshin was so stone-like and showed no signs of wavering that Dojin-guk was rather embarrassed.
It was that confidence and unwavering attitude that brought Bae Seong-shin to the position of president.
‘It has no meaning here.’
There was no need to look at Bae Seong-shin to judge that the atmosphere had suddenly turned in Kang Hyeon’s favor. Because Wang Nam-ryong, the defendant, was causing a scene.
“That fucking kid…!”
Wang Nam-ryong could not hold back his words and quietly cursed from a distance. Although the curse did not reach the audience, it reached the distance where Kang Hyeon and the judge were.
“Oh, I object!”
“Your Honor…!”
The defense team quickly got up from their seats and began to raise objections to the court in an attempt to stop and block him, but they were helpless.
Kang Hyun still had the right to cross-examine the two witnesses, Bae Seong-shin and Do Jin-guk, who were granted the right by the court.
That is, it was Kang Hyun’s turn. He stood proudly in his seat for the newspaper and looked back and forth between the two.
The president and vice president looked up at him.
“… .”
“… .”
In the past, the two inspectors who were like the sky were now being looked down upon by Kang Hyun.
A moment of silence.
And before the silence could fade, without a moment’s hesitation.
Kang Hyun turned his head towards Do Jin-guk and started asking him direct and core questions.
“Witness, I have a question.”
“yes.”
“Is Wang Nam-ryong a party to this incident?”
“yes.”
“Did he torture Song Doo-seung himself?”
“yes.”
“Is there any evidence?”
“I was the defense attorney. Isn’t that evidence?”
A place where a bolt from the blue suddenly struck.
-what?!
-What the hell does that mean!
Shouts of surprise and horrified gasps began to pour out involuntarily.
Leaving the commotion behind, Kang Hyun turned his head and asked Bae Seong-shin.
“Is Wang Nam-ryong a party to the incident?”
“I can only guess that he is an indirect… party.”
“Did he torture Song Doo-seung himself?”
“No, I thought so.”
“Is the president responsible?”
“…doesn’t exist.”
The difference between certainty and ambiguity.
Two answers that test credibility.
This was a moment that even a non-expert could clearly tell who was telling the truth.
-Are you saying it was really Kang Hyun?
-Song Doo-seung is a victim of torture?
-You’re crazy!
“Okay, quiet for a moment!”
“Quiet, quiet…!”
The court could not suppress the thunderous gasps of surprise from the audience. It could not calm them down by swinging the gavel or using a high-handed tone as it had done before.
They too, themselves too.
It was because I was so shocked that the sky fell and the earth collapsed.
The presiding judge and the presiding judge closed their eyes, the sitting judge sat motionless, and the sitting judge, Seo Do-jeong, closed his eyes tightly.
They just watched from afar, as if they were watching Kang Hyun’s actions.
“… .”
Kang Hyun was still looking at the two, but didn’t ask any more questions.
Just a few question bombs were enough to get them here, and the story was moving towards its conclusion.
Just by Kang Hyun standing there and Bae Seong-shin taking the witness stand, the trial was tilted to one side.
As time passed by seconds and minutes, the people in the audience were surprised and surprised again.
Bae Seong-shin and Do Jin-guk.
They were in the middle of appearing in court as witnesses and exposing the prosecution’s corruption.
-Kang Hyun did it.
-You really did it again?
The atmosphere of celebration was already in place among those supporting Kang Hyun.
By simply putting the two highest authorities in the prosecution on the witness stand and manipulating them, Kang Hyun is rewriting history.
Suppressing all threats and fears, leading to an irresistible force.
What kind of history would be written by a prosecutor who uses ghostly strategies and schemes to break the tense balance of power in an instant?
Kang Hyun was neither a police officer nor a special prosecutor. However, the trial proceeded so naturally and as expected.
If no one questions this picture, even though the prosecutors are on the defendant’s stand due to corruption in the prosecution and the prosecutor general is sitting in the seat, and the prosecutors are fighting against the defense team, then doesn’t that say it all?
Even though Kang Hyun set up the board like this, not a single person questioned it. No one thought it would become a rigged Go-Stop game.
The reason was that the person in question was Kang Hyeon.
This was because the public’s hopes and expectations that he would not be swayed by any corruption or greed in power and that he would remain so in the future were strongly supporting him.
Wang Nam-ryong, and even Bae Seong-shin were woefully inadequate. It must have been their mistake to try to confront Kang Hyeon with only this much preparation.
-That’s ridiculous!
-Then… did the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office do that to Song Doo-seung?
-The Public Security Department, the Public Security Department was wrong!
Now the people gathered around them are wondering how Kang Hyun will uncover the truth.
How to make the wrongdoer pay the price and repent for his sins.
The audience was filled with only those who were expecting it.
Flash!
“Evidence! Is there evidence!”
The one who pushed aside all the defense lawyers and jumped up and shouted was Wang Nam-ryong.
He was doing what a suspect or defendant does when he is cornered and making his last desperate attempt.
Key evidence.
Evidence.
That’s what I was shouting.
The circumstances, the situation, and the witnesses are all speaking.
This was despite the public’s eyes turning towards him, ready to roll their eyes and drive a wedge of criticism into him.
“It’s evidence.”
“Evidence! There’s no evidence. Bring me the evidence! This is a false accusation! Mr. President, this is a false accusation!”
An indignant Wang Nam-ryong cried out to Bae Seong-shin, who was in the witness stand instead of the court, to plead his innocence.
“… .”
However, Bae Seong-shin still stared straight ahead like a stone and did not answer him.
The president will know.
The fact that if Wang Nam-ryong is defeated, the arrows will return to him. And how he should act to minimize the damage he will receive from these arrows.
“Of course there is no documentary evidence.”
The attention of the audience turned back to Kang Hyun.
One thing that Kang Hyun-i has gained from coming here is that Wang Nam-ryong is meticulous and thorough.
All traces were erased and the materials destroyed, so no remaining documentary evidence could be found.
Even the fact that there was nothing decisive in the direct search and seizure by the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office of the Joint Investigation Team meant that he controlled everything and took the lead in erasing the past.
But it didn’t matter.
“That’s why witnesses are important.”
“Witness! Isn’t that Deputy Chief Prosecutor Do Jin-guk over there in the same group as you! In the end, he’s a scoundrel trying to suppress me through a power struggle…!”
It was an absurd statement to come out of his mouth, but Kang Hyun accepted it and nodded.
“Yes. It may seem that way to some people. But what if we do this?”
As soon as I finished speaking.
bang!
The courtroom door, which seemed unlikely to open, was wide open once again.
Leaving behind the cheers and camera shutter lights of reporters lined up outside.
Like a hunter who appeared to strangle the life out of this trial that was barely hanging on, leaning to one side.
Another big shot was entering the courtroom.
“I, I, jeong… .”
“Prosecutor General Jeong Joong-heon!”
“Chief Inspector!”
Woof woof.
Including several prosecutors under Kang Hyeon, including Baek Hoon-sik.
All prosecutors and lawyers from the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office, and Wang Nam-ryong.
I stood up from my seat and greeted the prosecution’s new sun with a reverent heart.
I had no choice but to stand up automatically. Jeong Jung-heon’s appearance was quite dramatic, because of the surprising figures who lined up behind him.
-Those people are from the Public Security Department…!
-They’re missing people!
-Those guys who ran away!
A few staff members who recognized him shouted. The people in the gallery heard this and shouted in surprise as well.
-Former investigators who fled overseas?
-Why… No way!
That’s right.
As soon as Jeong Jung-heon hid his body and left for overseas.
Key figures in the Song Doo-seung case and former ‘torture technicians’ of the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office Public Security Department.
Beyond the scope of public security and political incidents, he brought in Wang Nam-ryong’s direct investigators who were simply carrying out the special mission of ‘eliminating people who were threatening the prosecution’ with their great power.
“No, why are you guys here! What the fuck!”
When Wang Nam-ryong became indignant, the lawyers tried to stop him. They lined up behind Jeong Jung-heon and bowed their heads in silence.
chuck.
And in front of him is Chief Prosecutor Jeong Joong-heon.
Jeong Joong-heon spoke each word in a more dignified and powerful tone than ever before.
“This is Chief Prosecutor Jung Joong-heon of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office. Without interfering with the trial, I would like to inform everyone in this court that I have secured the custody of the key people involved in this case.”
He looked at Bae Seong-shin and Wang Nam-ryong as if they were a king reigning over the earth, bathed in the halo of shutter lights until just before the courtroom doors closed.
And in the middle of them stood Kang Hyeon.
Three-way meeting.
It was truly a three-way meeting.
This incredible confrontation in court will be remembered and re-remembered for a long time in the history of the prosecution.
It didn’t matter what the outcome of this story would be. Whether it would be a story that those who eat up the rust of the prosecution organization would take as a ‘negative example’ or a story that would ‘punish evil and reward good’.
But we cannot completely wash away the mistakes of the past.
If I could provide even a little comfort to Song Doo-seung, who fought against corruption in the prosecution, in his harsh and cruel life, that would be enough.
Kang Hyun quickly got up. It was to put a stop to this fight.
“Your Honor. The people who kidnapped and tortured the victim of this trial, Song Doo-seung, and drove him to a state where he could not recover mentally, and made him disappear for years, with no trace of his whereabouts being found.”
“…!”
“I would like to request the testimony of five investigators from the Public Security Department of the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office at the time.”
Then he turned his head to Wang Nam-ryong, who was looking at him with a blank expression, and quietly said a word.
“… In the end, you lost. Get ready to go to court custody. Chief Wang Nam-ryong.”
