◈Episode 32◈

meson

Gangnam 2nd Police Station, 1st floor investigation room.

Shin Dae-sung gestured to the Crown Law Firm lawyer for a chair.

“Please sit down.”

“Yes······ But do I have to have the consultation here?”

“I don’t have time. I heard that you can do whatever your client requests······.”

“Yes, that’s right. What does the location matter? Let me introduce myself formally. I am Jang Hyun-soo, a partner attorney at Crown Law Firm.”

Shin Dae-seong responded after receiving his business card.

“You’re a partner lawyer at such a young age? That’s amazing!”

“The detective who hired me is even more amazing. He is Judge Baek Byeong-cheol’s son-in-law and will soon inherit all of his assets.”

“If you insist on giving it to me, I have no choice but to accept it. Anyway, do you think you can win the lawsuit against Yang Mi-sook?”

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo answered with an awkward smile.

“To be honest, the odds of winning are extremely low. Since Ms. Yang Mi-sook made the cake, I can’t really make a fuss about it.”

“It was given to me as a gift. So you threw it on the floor without my permission.”

“They’ll claim that they accidentally dropped it.”

“No, he definitely threw me on the floor while looking at me.”

Kim Han-gyeol came forward as if he had been waiting for it.

“I saw it clearly. Despite Detective Shin’s pleas, they smashed it to pieces. I am willing to stand as a witness.”

“There’s no need to go to trial for this kind of thing······ Right now, I’m in the process of understanding the case.”

Shin Dae-seong asked Jang Hyun-soo.

“What is the response from Yang Mi-sook’s side?”

“I haven’t heard from you yet.”

“I would have filed a complaint with the court and asked them to process it quickly, right?”

“The certified mail must have been delivered to Yang Mi-sook.”

-Tiring~ Tiring~.

Kim Han-gyeol checked the caller number and said.

“Wicked woman······ No, it’s Yang Mi-sook’s call.”

Since Shin Dae-seong doesn’t have a cell phone yet, he calls Kim Han-gyeol.

“Should I just take it?”

“No, just hang up for now. Then pick up the second time.”

“All right.”

Kim Han-gyeol hung up the phone as Shin Dae-seong had said.

Then, when the call came for the second time, I pressed the call button.

“Yes, hello.”

-Change detective Shin Dae-seong······.

Yang Mi-sook’s voice seemed like it would explode at the slightest touch.

“I’m in the middle of an important consultation right now.”

“Stop nagging and tell me to change!”

Eventually her anger exploded.

“Oh my, it was a surprise······.”

Kim Han-gyeol hurriedly took the phone from his ear and handed it over to Shin Dae-seong, who reached out.

“Yes, this is Detective Shin Dae-seong.”

-Oh my, Detective Shin······ You really did something psychopathic. Why on earth are you doing this to me? Did Hye-ran tell you to do this?

“The cake you gave me was the best I’ve tasted in 20 years. I’m glad I held on… I felt like I was making up for the lost years. But then you snatched the cake away and smashed it mercilessly in front of me.”

-······.

“I told you. Taking back what you gave is the worst thing in the world. I was mentally traumatized because of you. I will never forgive you.”

-Okay, can I make you the exact same cake again? No, if you just listen to me, you can eat that cake for free for the rest of your life······.

“Shut up. What you threw away was my pride. You should suffer as much as I do.”

-Bam.

Shin Dae-seong unilaterally hung up the phone.

Then he gave the phone back to Kim Han-gyeol and gave him a firm order.

“Don’t answer my phone again. Okay?”

“all right.”

Kim Han-gyeol quickly changed it to silent.

This is the serious reaction of Crown Law Firm’s attorney Hyunsu Jang.

“I had my doubts that this lawsuit was a joke. But Detective Shin, your determination is firm?”

“Mr. Jang, do you think I’m strange?”

“No. Different people have different priorities. We do our best to meet all of our customers’ requests.”

“I want more than that.”

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo asked cautiously.

“What do you mean?”

“I hope we win, regardless of the means and methods.”

“We are a law firm that respects the law. We will do our best within the scope permitted by the law.”

“Did the master misrepresent the message? That can’t be possible. I want a truly top 0.01% service. Blood Crown.”

“!”

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo’s eyes changed.

“Unfortunately, you are not eligible for this service.”

“What is the reason?”

“Because it doesn’t have a rating. And I’m not in charge of that.”

“Yeah, I see······.”

Shin Dae-seong said to Kim Han-gyeol.

“Lock the door.”

“All right.”

Kim Han-gyeol jumped up and locked the interrogation room door.

-Clang.

* * *

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo, sensing a suspicious atmosphere, asked.

“Detective Shin, what is going on here?”

“I need you to answer my question honestly. Did Blood Crown take charge of Chairman Jeon Yeong-sook’s case?”

“Are you saying you want to forcibly investigate me now?”

Shin Dae-seong responded in a calm tone.

“There is nothing I can’t do.”

“What, what are you talking about? I’m a lawyer. Do you think this makes sense?”

“Attorney Jang Hyun-soo, I am also thinking of a more aggressive method. A somewhat more violent one.”

“You’re crazy!”

But Shin Dae-seong didn’t even blink an eye.

“I’m not crazy yet. And right now I’m doing a private investigation. I’m looking for the real culprit who killed my wife.”

“What, what did you say······.”

“You probably already know about me. Even if it’s not my rank, you probably know what kind of guy I am. Blood Crown… If there was a client who wanted my wife dead, I would definitely have carried it out, right?”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about? No, how can the people’s staff bring up private investigations like this?”

Kim Han-gyeol answered on his behalf.

“You guys are lawyers, but you don’t follow the law, right?”

He then defended Shin Dae-seong and said:

“I will follow whatever Detective Shin does. If I get fired from detective work, I can just work as an errand center.”

“Thank you, Detective Kim. The CCTV is off… and I told you not to let anyone in, right?”

“Yes.”

“Can you grant me one more favor?”

“Just speak.”

“Just lay down a large sheet of plastic on the floor. And keep a close eye on it so no one comes in.”

“Okay, I’ll go get the plastic right away.”

It’s time for Kim Han-gyeol to go out.

“Hahahaha······.”

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo said with laughter.

“Detective Shin Dae-seong, you exceeded my expectations. Are you really trying to torture me here?”

Kim Han-gyeol was shocked when he saw Jang Hyun-soo suddenly change.

“Wow~ Wow, what a twist······.”

As expected, Shin Dae-seong didn’t show any significant changes.

“Is this your real self? You seem like a completely different person… Could it be dissociative identity disorder?”

“Yes, multiple personality disorder. But it’s somewhat controllable.”

“Which of your multiple personalities are you?”

“A mediator. A mediator between the simple lawyer Jang Hyun-soo and the founder of Blood Crown.”

“Does Attorney Jang Hyun-soo not know about Blood Crown’s work?”

“That’s right, we have an inequality of memory. Should I call it an inequality of memory… Anyway, I share Jang Hyun-soo’s memories. However, I can’t even access the founder’s memories. The founder can access both my and Jang Hyun-soo’s memories, and Jang Hyun-soo doesn’t know about my and the founder’s existence. It’s just a vague feeling.”

“If you want to know about the Blood Crown, you have to call its founder?”

“yes!”

“How can I call the founder?”

“I have to contact you. I have to get out of here to do that.”

Kim Han-gyeol said with suspicion.

“Isn’t this a trick to escape from here?”

“Even if the personality changes, the symptoms of lying are the same. The intermediary is telling the truth.”

Shin Dae-seong said to the intermediary.

“Tell him that I want to see you as soon as possible.”

“Okay, I’ll tell you that.”

“Is there anything I should pay special attention to when I return to the persona of Attorney Jang Hyun-soo?”

“None. You’ll experience memory loss, so figure it out. You’ll wake up with a stupid face······.”

-Wow!

Attorney Jang Hyun-soo’s personality has awakened.

“omg!”

He asked alone, surprised.

“By any chance······ didn’t you say you were going to put down plastic on the floor?”

Shin Dae-seong asked with a puzzled expression.

“Why are you putting down plastic? In the police station interrogation room······.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I do that sometimes.”

“You don’t seem to be feeling well, so let’s stop here for today.”

“Yes, that’s right. Don’t worry about the lawsuit. I will definitely win.”

“Okay, thank you for your help.”

As attorney Jang Hyeon-su left, Kim Han-gyeol said.

“Shall the founder contact you?”

“I don’t know······.”

It’s time for Shin Dae-seong to answer honestly.

-Tiring~ Tiring~.

Kim Han-gyeol immediately answered the phone.

“Hello? Okay.”

The call ended in two words.

“It’s the youngest calling. The ‘special effects’ that was arrested as Hwang Gil-dong has been released from the Gwangsu Police Station.”

* * *

Kim Han-gyeol said while following the special effects.

“My name is Chae Jeong-hwan, not ‘Choi’ but ‘Chae.’ I am 32 years old, single, and have a criminal record.”

“What crime were you serving time for?”

“He received a two-year sentence for fraud and was released after completing his term at Cheongju Prison. Do you know him?”

“I don’t know. But he’ll remember me.”

“Yes, if you don’t know Detective Shin in prison, you must be a spy.”

“But is it possible to transport a bomb with a drone?”

“Of course. Long-distance delivery is also possible with drones.”

Shin Dae-seong and Kim Han-gyeol are following the crowded streets. Chae Jeong-hwan, who was released from the Gwangsu Police Station, went into the food alley.

“You seem hungry. Should I ask you to meet up now?”

“No, just a moment······.”

“why?”

“Aside from us, there are other guys tailing Chae Jeong-hwan.”

“Where?”

Shin Dae-seong nodded in the 3 o’clock direction and said.

“Those guys with a scary look. I can’t tell if they’re detectives from the Gwangsoo Unit or gangsters.”

“They look very similar. To me, they look like gangsters. Aren’t they dressed in black suits? Field detectives don’t usually wear suits. Of course, except for Detective Shin.”

“Why are the gangsters chasing Chae Jeong-hwan?”

“I don’t know what’s going on, but it doesn’t seem like a good thing. Chae Jeong-hwan noticed it too and started running away.”

Chae Jeong-hwan’s steps seemed to quicken, but soon he was running with all his might.

The gangsters in black suits also started running, and Kim Han-gyeol and Shin Dae-seong joined the chase.

“Ha~ Those guys are making me exercise again!”

A chase in the city.

Chae Jeong-hwan wasn’t very fast on his feet.

His stamina also seemed to be poor, and his breathing became heavy and his speed slowed down significantly.

Chae Jeong-hwan went into a dark alley, panting.

“What a idiot! That place is a dead end.”

The gangsters also rushed into the dark alley.

“Detective Shin, what should we do? Should we wait until the gangsters come out? Should we go inside right away?”

“I want to talk to the sane Chae Jeong-hwan.”

“I think that would be better too.”

Soon after, Shin Dae-seong and Kim Han-gyeol also entered the dark alley.
