#Episode 32
Sergeant Oh Seo-hyeon.
To be honest, I had no connection with Jaehyun Lee in my past life.
Even though Lee Jae-hyun worked as a police officer for 10 years, their jurisdictions are different… … .
There’s no way you can know every police officer in the country.
Of course, when I was working as a detective, I worked hard and investigated cases, so there were many people I knew.
Oh Seo-hyun was not among them.
It could be that they just never saw each other face to face, or that he was transferred from detective work to a regular police station.
Or maybe he quit the police force.
There are many cases.
“Please wait here for a moment.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Lee Jae-hyun nodded immediately in response to Officer Oh Seo-hyeon’s words as he opened the door.
Lee Jae-hyun briefly looked around the conference room where Officer Oh Seo-hyeon had left.
There is a small projector installed on one side, and a long table in the middle, so 12 people can sit at once.
One wall is lined with drawers.
It appears to be a warehouse and briefing room for storing materials.
Jaehyun Lee glanced at the note written on the drawer door.
Each one has a date attached, the oldest being three years ago.
‘I don’t think it’s here.’
It seems that there is no information about the Park Chun-beom case here.
Well, when Oh Seo-hyun comes back, we can talk calmly and ask for the data.
The jurisdiction of the incident five years ago was Incheon West, but this incident was dug into because it was linked to illegal medical practices.
There were several reasons why the Hansung District Police Station could claim that it was their case.
Well, that would be possible only if Incheon West handed it over without any particular word.
‘I guess that’s fortunate because you don’t seem like the type to force someone for no reason.’
This was my first time seeing Officer Oh Seo-hyeon, but she didn’t seem like the type to be stubborn for no reason.
Should I just say that he is the type of person who does his work neatly?
Maybe it’s just because there are so many incidents.
Or maybe they just don’t feel the need to claim that an incident from five years ago was theirs now.
Whatever it is, it’s fortunate for Lee Jae-hyun that Oh Seo-hyun isn’t the type to find fault with him for no reason.
Lee Jae-hyun sat down on a chair and waited for Oh Seo-hyun.
About 10 minutes passed.
Officer Oh Seo-hyeon entered the conference room carrying a bundle of documents.
There is also a notebook included, which appears to be more of a personal collection of materials than official data.
“I have collected as much information as possible from the incident five years ago.”
“thank you.”
Officer Oh Seo-hyeon said, placing the materials on the desk with his chin up.
Lee Jae-hyun thanked her for bringing the materials.
It’s a case that’s already been closed, and it might be unpleasant to dig into the case in another book, but I’m grateful that they brought this information.
But, do you not intend to give it up that easily?
“At the time, the circumstances were suspicious and we suspected intentional murder, but no separate evidence was produced.”
As she said that, Oh Seo-hyun placed her hand on top of the stack of documents as if to stop Lee Jae-hyun from reaching for the documents.
Lee Jae-hyun took back his outstretched hand as he looked at Oh Seo-hyun, who had an expression on her face as if asking him to tell him what the evidence was.
Only then did I remember what Song A-ram’s father, the owner of the noodle restaurant, had said.
‘Didn’t you say that at the time, there was a police officer who was stirring things up, saying it was murder?’
That was probably Oh Seo-hyun.
The regret and regret scattered like fragments in Oh Seo-hyun’s eyes were telling us that.
If it’s a slope now… … 5 years ago, I was a police officer.
If I had been suspicious since then, I would have searched really hard.
I tried my best, but it probably wasn’t enough.
There may have been limitations to the rank of police officer, and there may have also been limitations to the situation.
Honestly, wasn’t it thanks to the devil Serhen’s abilities that Lee Jae-hyun was able to find the evidence so easily?
Thinking about it that far, the thought of buying ice cream for Serhen flashed through his mind, but Jaehyun Lee erased the thought of Serhen and looked at Seohyun Oh in front of him.
Seohyun Oh slowly sat down across from Jaehyun Lee, still keeping her hand on the documents, under Jaehyun Lee’s gaze.
I was planning on explaining the situation anyway, and I had a favor to ask.
Lee Jae-hyun opened his mouth with a calm face.
“The noodle restaurant located where the incident occurred…….”
“Yes, Song’s Gukbap.”
Oh Seo-hyeon nods her head as if she knows.
The fact that he still remembers the scene of the incident and the noodle restaurant nearby… … is proof that Oh Seo-hyeon put in that much effort at the time.
Oh Seo-hyun gave me a look that seemed to ask me to get straight to the point.
Lee Jae-hyun felt a strange feeling as he looked into her eyes.
At first, I felt like she was a bit cold and stiff, similar to Min Ji-hye from Hansung District Police Station.
Now I see, that’s not true.
If Min Ji-hye felt like a cat, Oh Seo-hyun felt like a dog.
So, that is.
‘Similar to me.’
In my past life, I was called a mad dog, Lee Jae-hyun.
In an unfamiliar place, I see a familiar gaze in a stranger’s eyes.
Lee Jae-hyun continued his explanation, swallowing a laugh inside.
“There is a photo that the daughter of the owner of that noodle restaurant took with her smartphone at the time.”
“……A photo? What is it?”
“This photo shows a person getting out of the driver’s seat after the accident. The car fell off after that.”
As Lee Jae-hyun said that, he found a photo on his smartphone and handed it to Officer Oh Seo-hyeon.
Officer Oh Seo-hyeon frowned as he checked the smartphone screen that Lee Jae-hyeon handed him.

Because the photo was taken at night, it was difficult to identify, but if you check the photo information, you can confirm the time and approximate location.
The car model shown in the photo is clearly the same as the car model in which the incident occurred.
Oh Seo-hyun opened her mouth, exhaling deeply and handing the smartphone back to Lee Jae-hyun.
“So, after the accident, you got out by yourself and… pushed the car?”
“That’s what I’m guessing. I’m guessing that he pushed the car and went into the sea himself to call 119 and wait for them to come.”
“He got out first, then he missed the car and then he followed behind……. Then it makes sense that Park Chun-beom’s DNA wasn’t detected at all on the driver’s seat.”
Oh Seo-hyeon nodded, muttering as if she finally understood.
Lee Jae-hyun hesitated at her words and asked back.
It’s not uncommon for a car accident to result in no DNA evidence being found.
It’s inevitable that you’ll get hurt if you bump into something inside a car, especially if things like hair get caught and pulled out.
“DNA wasn’t detected?”
“Yes, at the time, the car was badly damaged and was in the seawater, so I thought that must be the case.”
“If he was in the driver’s seat when the accident happened, there should have been some hair or blood left behind, or at least some traces of it during the escape process… The fact that it wasn’t detected really seems to indicate that he wasn’t inside the car when it fell.”
Lee Jae-hyun clicked his tongue and said,
How can a person kill his own brother like that?
“And then, he went into the sea on purpose and reported it……. He’s really trash.”
Oh Seo-hyun muttered in a low voice, then raised her head again and looked at Lee Jae-hyun.
She opened her mouth, taking her hands off the materials neatly.
“It took a while, but thank you for shedding light on it. Officer Lee Jae-hyun.”
“No, sir.”
“I guess I’ll have to go and greet the witness separately.”
You must have been going through a lot of emotional pain.
Oh Seo-hyun said so.
Lee Jae-hyun pulled the materials towards him and tried to check them one by one, but then he let out an “Ah.”
“Could I ask you a favor?”
“Please?”
With a puzzled face, Oh Seo-hyun stares at Lee Jae-hyun.
Since we weren’t in a position to ask each other for favors, it was natural for us to make that kind of face.
“Yes, the witness was being bullied at school. I witnessed the situation at the time and tried to stop it. However, given the nature of school violence, it’s not something that can be solved by just stopping it once, right?”
Lee Jae-hyun promised A/S to Song A-ram.
However, since the jurisdictions are different, no matter how much Lee Jae-hyun is careful, it would be much more effective for the police within the jurisdiction to use it.
“I will visit the school tomorrow.”
Officer Oh Seo-hyeon answered with a frown.
Looking at your expression, I feel a little relieved.
Jaehyun Lee responded with thanks and took the materials.

When I returned to Hansung District Police Station with the materials, everyone who was moving busily suddenly stopped and looked back at Jaehyun Lee.
“I’m back.”
Lee Jae-hyun bowed his head in greeting and was about to return to his seat.
“Hey, youngest.”
Sergeant Kim Jun-ho approaches and places a hand on Lee Jae-hyun’s shoulder.
He opened his mouth with a hollow laugh.
“In the end, you found the evidence as soon as you got there, you did a great job.”
“thank you.”
“How on earth do you catch two murderers in one week?”
Kim Jun-ho taps Lee Jae-hyun on the shoulder and asks.
A question that came out naturally out of absurdity rather than asking out of genuine curiosity.
Lee Jae-hyun couldn’t answer his question and just laughed awkwardly.
Park Dae-hyung strode forward in front of him.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“No. Here, the data…….”
Lee Jae-hyun tried to hand over the documents he was holding to Park Dae-hyung, but Min Ji-hye sneakily intervened.
“Give me the materials and write up a report. I’ll organize it and hand it over to you.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Lee Jae-hyun gave a simple thank you to Min Ji-hye, who was holding the materials in her hand.
Min Ji-hye waves her hand as if it’s nothing and sits down.
Organizing data is quite a tedious task.
Saying that I will do that means I will lighten Jaehyun’s workload.
No matter what anyone says, murder is a serious crime and a major incident.
A single local police team solved that.
That too, I solved it twice in a week.
Of course, there will be chaos outside as well.
There was no way the atmosphere within the team would have been bad.
Anyway, if the team performance improves… … . Naturally, the probability of receiving a daily bonus or a monthly bonus increases.
No, actually, the atmosphere was that a bonus would be paid just for catching Myeong Jin-han last time, but since he also uncovered Park Chun-beom’s murder, the bonus was already certain.
So everyone can’t help but think Lee Jae-hyun is pretty.
Park Dae-hyung saw Min Ji-hye carrying the materials and snickered as he hit Lee Jae-hyun’s arm.
“This one was pretty police-like.”
Park Dae-hyung blurts out the words.
Although others would not understand what he was saying, Lee Jae-hyun could not help but laugh.
Because I remembered what I said at the last company dinner that I would live like a police officer.
Lee Jae-hyun smiled and opened his mouth.
“I will continue to live like a police officer.”
“Okay. Let’s live like a police officer.”
Park Dae-hyung said that and chuckled.
Lee Jae-hyun looked at him and nodded.
