Episode 100: You’re doing great, sword.

Wi Jun-woo, who was about to head to the meeting place right away after hearing that Kiso Young had arrived, was grabbed by the back of the neck by me and brought in.

“Oh, oh, oh. Inspector. Please let this go.”

“Where are you going to play tag?”

“Isn’t it time for our appointment yet?”

“It’s not even time for my appointment. It’s not even time to leave work yet.”

“Okay, I’ll walk. Just let this go.”

When I let go of his hand, Wei Jun-woo grumbled while straightening out his crumpled clothes.

“I wasn’t planning on leaving either. What do you think of me?”

“I am. I am the kind of person who risks my life to keep my work hours on time, but that doesn’t mean I skip work hours.”

“Please lie with your mouth wet.”

I quickly moistened my lips with saliva.

“That’s what I mean. Anyway, we still have a lot of work to do.”

“Yeah.”

* * *

We were investigating the case materials, and we could only leave the prosecutor’s office a little past closing time. I wanted to go quickly, so I took Wi Jun-woo, who was restless, to a meat restaurant located a little away from the prosecutor’s office.

After passing through the hall on the first floor, enter the small room in the corner of the second floor.

“hello!”

“Hey, Sword! Chief! Come in quickly.”

“Manager, how have you been? Senior Hyuncheol, it’s been a while.”

“Chief, your shoulders are, wow. You must be working out harder.”

“Do you feel like tea? Haha. I should work out hard too. To protect this idiot next to me.”

“Oh, my. It’s so embarrassing.”

“Hey, So, Soyoung. How have you been? During that time… … .”

“yes.”

“It seems like your face has gotten better, sir.”

“That’s right. Your face is clearer now that the sword is no longer by your side. It’s as if your insides have been cleared out, as if an aching tooth has been pulled out.”

“Then are you talking about the Iran I was suffering from?”

“Oh. What was that sick tooth? It was a bomb, a bomb.”

“Boss!”

“Okay, okay. Let’s talk for a bit. Let’s sit down and listen for now.”

Since we were a little late, Chief Jang Gi-tae and his party had already ordered meat and drinks. I sat down right away, dragging Wi Jun-woo, who was looking embarrassed at Giso-yeong.

“Wow, the meat here is delicious.”

“Right? The meat is tender and good.”

“How did people who only lived in Gunnae-myeon know about this place?”

“We made the reservation because Ms. Kisoyoung told us. We didn’t know.”

“Are you Kisoyoung?”

When we turned our heads to look, Kisoyoung, who had been quiet the whole time since we arrived, spoke as if it was nothing.

“It’s close to home. I sometimes eat out with my family.”

“Aha. So that’s why you knew about this restaurant.”

“Is this your home?”

I left Wi Jun-woo, who had been stuttering since earlier, and asked Chief Jang Gi-tae.

“By the way, what are you doing in Seoul?”

“Because Sunday is my mother-in-law’s birthday.”

“Then will your wife and daughter come from America too?”

“I can’t come because of my daughter’s school. It’s an important time. Instead, I’m coming this winter during the winter break, including Christmas.”

“What about senior Hyuncheol?”

“My cousin’s wedding.”

Chief Jang Gi-tae, who had been quiet, turned his head and looked at Ki So-young.

“Come to think of it, Soyoung has been up in Seoul since Thursday using her annual leave. What brings you to Seoul?”

Ki So-young, who was eating meat in a row, stared at Manager Jang Gi-tae.

“Can I not come to Seoul?”

“No, I was just curious… … .”

“Hey, boss. These days, you don’t just ask questions like that. You have to be aware of it.”

“Sword. Sword asked me and Pro Kim a little while ago why we came to Seoul. Why are you only asking me?”

“Are you and the manager the same?”

“No, but still.”

“You have to stretch your legs out to see where you are going to lie down.”

She lowered her head again and began to eat the meat. Kim Hyun-chul, who was eating the meat in silence, asked me.

“Sword. How is the atmosphere at the Central District Prosecutors’ Office?”

“What kind of atmosphere is there?”

“Pro Kim, you shouldn’t ask that to a swordsman. He’s not the type of guy to look out for others or read the mood.”

“Yes, yes.”

This time, Manager Jang Gi-tae glanced at me.

“Is the trial department work worth it?”

“yes.”

“Anyway, Vice-Chief Nam, you too. Who would have thought that when I asked you to send me up to Seoul, you would be sent to the trial department?”

“it’s okay.”

“It’s okay. The sword is the type that just swings around everywhere, so wouldn’t the criminal division be a better fit? It would be a pain to work in the trial division.”

Wi Jun-woo quickly intervened.

“It’s really okay. Prosecutor Do, even in the trial department, he just keeps stirring things up.”

“Yeah, yeah. You’re doing great, Sword.”

“yes.”

Chief Jang Gi-tae was the kind of person who would say, “Well done, well done,” even if I were to strip naked and dance at the Central District Prosecutors’ Office. Because it wasn’t his responsibility anymore.

Director Jang Gi-tae seemed to hesitate slightly before opening his mouth.

“How is Vice President Nam?”

“What is it?”

“I was the one who sent the sword to Seoul. Are you sure you’re not going to harass the sword or anything?”

“no.”

“That’s fortunate. Vice-Chief Nam tends to be a bit harsh on people he doesn’t like. Isn’t Dogum already unpopular?”

“I don’t know if I looked ugly or not, but the manager definitely looked fat.”

“Yeah. Manager Nam is a bit fat. But don’t say things like that in front of him.”

“It’s too late. I should have done it a long time ago. On the first day we met.”

“Huh? On the first day? No… … .”

Chief Jang Gi-tae opened his eyes wide and tried to say something, then closed his mouth again and nodded.

“Yeah, yeah. You’re doing great, Sword.”

Kim Hyun-chul grumbled, unable to stand watching.

“No, if you just talk to him, he’ll do everything well. When I was in Gunnae-myeon, he would always yell at me, scold me, and beat my chest.”

“Pro Kim doesn’t know anything. He suffered when he was under me. Now that it’s out of my hands, why would I care and worry about it? Right?”

That’s true. Now there’s no need for you to worry and be anxious.

“Moreover, it’s not just anyone else, but someone under the direction of Manager Nam. If they cause a scene there, what could be more fun to watch? What do the kids call it these days? Oh, it’s called popcorn corner.”

“That’s right. Of course.”

When I played the janggu, Manager Jang Gi-tae patted my shoulder.

“Keep doing that in the future. Just like you did in Gunnae-myeon. Don’t worry about what others think, don’t be discouraged! Just do whatever you want and go around.”

“I will keep that in mind!”

“Yeah, yeah.”

Manager Jang Gi-tae smiled happily and toasted me. He took a sip of his drink and put it down, asking.

“Isn’t it possible that Vice-Chief Nam is guarding or guarding against the sword?”

“Well, I didn’t feel anything like that.”

Wi Jun-woo said as if it was nonsense.

“Hey. Even though Prosecutor Do is famous for being a sly jerk, he’s still a new prosecutor. How could Chief Nam possibly be wary of or restraint you?”

That’s true, but why do I get so annoyed and upset when Wi Jun-woo says it?

“What’s wrong? Even Vice President Nam is keeping an eye on me.”

“Really?”

“Let’s just wait and see. I remember now. It seemed like Manager Nam was really worried that I would sit in his seat.”

“what?”

Manager Jang Gi-tae, who was stuffing meat into his mouth, was startled.

“Is Vice President Nam keeping you in check? No, more than that. Is he worried that you might end up in his place?”

“yes.”

[Hyun-kwang. Don’t you think our conversation is causing some misunderstanding?]

‘I wasn’t wrong.’

While I was just standing there, Manager Jang Gi-tae had his mouth wide open.

“No, what nonsense is that, Chief Nam! How can a prosecutor, especially a rookie prosecutor in his first year, look down on the position of Chief Prosecutor? What have you done?”

“What did you do? I just did what I usually do.”

“Yeah. What did you do, you did.”

“When I went to the manager’s office, he called someone over and said he was just wiping the flower pots, so I sat in the manager’s seat for a moment. From then on, he kept keeping an eye on me.”

“What? You sat in the vice president’s seat?”

“It was just for a very short time.”

“Oh, really. You’re really a pervert.”

When I scratched my head in embarrassment, Manager Jang Gi-tae, who had been making a blank expression, nodded and applauded.

“Yeah, as long as it’s not me. Great, our sword.”

“yes?”

“You’re doing great. Keep doing that.”

“yes!”

“You have to remember to fuck your boss!”

“I will carve it into my bones.”

“Come on. Let’s all have a toast.”

We all emptied our glasses together under the leadership of Manager Jang Gi-tae. After pouring and drinking for quite some time.

“How about the sword? What have you been working on lately?”

“This is the case of Hwang Dae-bong entertaining prosecutors.”

“uh?”

Kim Hyun-chul and Jang Ki-tae’s chopsticks both stopped in midair.

“That incident that’s on the news all the time these days?”

“Did the sword take care of that?”

“yes.”

“Wow, that’s amazing. He’s already the ace of the Central District Prosecutors’ Office?”

Wi Jun-woo waved his hand at those words.

“Ace, what? That’s ridiculous. That case was a bit tricky, so no one was willing to take it on. Our prosecutor was the only one.”

“Oh, right. That’s a bit tricky.”

“What is happening?”

In response to Kiso Young’s question, Kim Hyun-chul asked instead.

“Don’t you know about the Hwang Dae-bong Prosecutor entertainment incident? It’s been all over the news lately.”

“Why would I look up prosecutor news? I see prosecutors every day when I go to work.”

It was an answer that somehow made sense.

“That’s right. It’s a case where it was revealed that Hwang Dae-bong, the president of an investment company, entertained current prosecutors.”

“Sword, who was the person who received that reception?”

“Chief Prosecutor Kim Jong-hyeok, Prosecutor Jeong Min-gu, Prosecutor Kim Gyeong-su, and National Assembly member Koh Yoon-seok.”

“Huh!”

I heard a loud crash and turned around to see Ki So-young with a slightly flustered look on her face. It seemed like she had dropped her chopsticks on the floor.

It’s strange that she, who is neat and tidy in everything she does, would make a mistake like Wei Jun-woo would.

“My hand slipped.”

Wi Jun-woo quickly stepped forward to make an excuse and apologize.

“Here you go. Here’s something new.”

Wi Jun-woo, sitting the furthest from Kiso Young, quickly took out a new pair of chopsticks from the spoon holder and handed them to her.

Chief Jang Gi-tae asked me again.

“Who was in charge of the investigation?”

“This is Manager Han Jae-sik. Do you know him?”

“Chief Han Jae-sik? I know. I know him well.”

Manager Jang Gi-tae put down his chopsticks and quietly scratched his chin.

“Chief Han. Chief Han filed an indictment? Yes.”

“why?”

“I know Chief Han well, so I know that. If it was him, he would have definitely not been prosecuted. Don’t you think he would have left it up to Chief Han to not prosecute him?”

“Well, that’s true.”

“But if they still filed an indictment, there must have been a lot of evidence that made it impossible to move?”

“There are a lot. I haven’t done any proper research on any of them.”

“okay?”

Wi Jun-woo also added.

“Don’t be ridiculous. This isn’t even a no-look pass. It’s like they read the transfer documents once and then passed them on.”

“Is that all? Oh my. Then it’ll be hard to maintain the indictment?”

“What I’m saying is, if we were to investigate that case and find evidence, it would take all night.”

“Oh, man. We got our timing wrong. You came up at a busy time.”

I said.

“I’m busy. I can’t possibly meet with the manager when the section chief hasn’t even investigated the case yet… … Ugh!”

Wi Jun-woo stuffed three or four pieces of well-cooked meat into my mouth.

“Haha. Our hard-working inspector, please eat a lot of meat. Yes. That’s what I said. Even more so when you’re busy and hectic! You need to meet our chief and relieve some of your stress, right? That’s what I said, inspector? That’s what I said, right?”

“I know you’re right.”

“Oh, you should eat everything before you speak. Now, eat some ssam too. Oh my, you’re eating well.”

Wi Jun-woo kept laughing awkwardly and stuffing more ssam, garlic, and meat into my mouth.

Chief Jang Gi-tae, who was looking at the shape, tilted his head.

“But it’s strange.”

“What is it?”

“Eat it all and then tell me.”

“am.”

“I’m talking about Chief Han Jae-sik. I know him well. He doesn’t actively flatter others, but he doesn’t do anything that would make him look bad. But why did they file a complaint about him?”

I finally opened my mouth after swallowing all the meat, garlic, and lettuce that was in my mouth.

“You could say that it’s the result of choosing a person at the crossroads of becoming a dog or a human.”

“What are you talking about?”

“What is that?”

“No, that’s okay. Don’t tell me. I feel like it would be easier if I just didn’t know.”

Manager Jang Gi-tae waved his hand and emptied his glass. Senior Kim Hyeon-cheol filled my glass and asked me.

“If it hasn’t been investigated like that, it must be very difficult. Is there anything we can do to help you? I don’t know if it will help.”

“Yeah. I don’t think that will help much.”

“Oh, you. Even if I say so.”

I hope this helps.

If that’s the case, there is just one.
