Episode 131: You are truly a teacher criminal!
“Chief Gong, why is it so hard to look at your face?”
“Oh, senior. It’s been a while. How have you been?”
“Do I look okay?”
“Why are you suddenly picking a fight? I was just saying hello because I was happy to see you.”
Gong Si-hyeong, who was caught by Chief Han Jae-sik while walking down the street, did not look happy to anyone.
“Oh, that’s not right. Let me talk to you for a moment.”
“I’m a bit busy.”
“Just give me 10 minutes. Just think about taking a shit in the bathroom.”
Chief Han Jae-sik took Gong Si-hyeong to a corner of the stairs where no one would notice. Chief Han Jae-sik carefully checked if anyone was on the stairs above or below, and then got straight to the point.
“Chief Gong, Si-hyung. Please save me.”
“Senior, why are you like this?”
“I’m going to die. Do I have to be buried in that corner at this age?”
Gong Si-hyung spoke quietly, avoiding Manager Han Jae-sik’s eyes.
“If it’s too hard, you can also quit… … .”
“I’m a goose dad. I still have to earn more to pay for my daughter’s tuition.”
“If you become a lawyer, you’ll probably make a lot of money.”
“Hey! If I was going to quit, I would have quit a long time ago. I’ve seen this and that and put up with it until now, and now you want me to quit like this? As the head of the Jo Bup-bu?”
Gong Si-hyung, who knew what he meant, just licked his lips without saying anything.
“Please save me.”
“Senior, you’re right. What power do I have that you’re saying that to me?”
“Now, Director Gong is Vice-Chief Nam’s right-hand man. The whole world knows this, so why are you pretending not to know?”
Gong Si-hyeong let out a deep sigh as he looked at Chief Han Jae-sik, who was shaking his arm.
“Then why did you blow away Chief Kim Jong-hyuk? If only he hadn’t been indicted at that time.”
Han Jae-sik was so aggrieved that he blurted out the same words he had said dozens of times before.
“Hey, I feel wronged too. I really did file a complaint against him for that. I was just imitating him. At that time, if the social atmosphere had not been such that he had been prosecuted, everyone would have protested in front of the prosecutor’s office.”
“That was true.”
“I didn’t look for the missing evidence, I didn’t investigate the materials properly, and I just passed it over. Even if I had indicted him, it would have been difficult to maintain the facts of the case. The judge would have declared him not guilty, and it would have ended with the judge getting cursed at.”
It wasn’t something to be proud of that I passed the case over without even properly investigating it, but now I had to appeal to it as much as possible.
“Who would have thought that Hyun-Torae would dig into that?”
“Yeah. Hyun-Torai, that guy is the problem.”
“That’s what I’m saying. I’m a victim after all.”
Somewhere between the frontal and the larynx, the strange echo seemed to be heard like that.
He had no choice but to sacrifice his sword in order to survive.
Gong Si-hyung let out another sigh. No matter what, he couldn’t just turn down his senior’s request.
“Okay. The deputy chief told me to send a bunch of cases to the Supreme Court. I’ll distribute them cleverly and send them to you. Are you having a hard time because there are so many cases?”
“Chief Gong, that’s not what I’m talking about.”
“sure?”
Manager Han Jae-sik cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“Please reserve a seat for me, Manager.”
“Where are you?”
“I want to see you in person and tell you my sincerity and loyalty, which will never change in the future.”
Gong Si-hyung tilted his head.
“The plate might fly as soon as I see your face, senior.”
“I’ll figure out how to avoid that. Okay? I want to go back to the criminal department no matter what. Did you do a good job at our 8th criminal department when I was there?”
“Oh, is that so?”
Even though I couldn’t do it, the kids did well.
“The deputy director’s right arm is gone now, so his range of movement will be limited. Wouldn’t it be better for me to be by his side rather than for Director Gong to be alone?”
“hmm.”
“The manager might be secretly waiting for me. I sent you some red ginseng last week, but I haven’t received any returns.”
“Oh, that.”
“Did you see Director Gong too?”
Gong Si-hyung scratched his temple and licked his lips.
“The manager told me to throw it away right away, so I and the other guys from my department split it up.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Manager Han Jae-sik responded with a very dead voice. Seeing that, Gong Si-hyeong’s heart also weakened.
“I don’t think now is the time. I’ll just stay over there and check the mood. In the meantime, senior, keep on oiling things up.”
“You told me to throw away the gift I sent you?”
“Do you give up just because of that? This is called sincerity. You have to keep courting her persistently.”
“Okay. Got it.”
“And please do some sword control. The thing that really makes you sharpen your teeth is swords.”
“okay.”
* * *
“We go on business trips after work… … .”
I was about to speak, but stopped talking when I saw Manager Han Jae-sik’s empty desk.
“Where did you go, Manager? Come to think of it, I haven’t seen you since a while ago.”
“Manager, you seem to be very busy these days. You’re running around here and there.”
“Are you stabbing me?”
Wi Jun-woo looked around aimlessly. Even so, there was only the two of us and Ki So-young.
“I guess you’ve decided to go back to the criminal division. You’ve been reaching out to people who have connections with Deputy Chief Nam.”
“Oh, that’s all useless.”
Would someone like Nam Woo-joong look after someone who once abandoned him? He may be big in stature, but his heart is like a bandage. He has a broad forehead, but is narrow-minded.
“The manager and I will be working outside and leaving work right away, so Soyoung, please also finish up when you have time and leave work right away.”
“yes.”
“It seems like the manager won’t be coming in today anyway, so don’t work late and leave work on time.”
“Isn’t that obvious?”
“… … That’s right.”
Wi Jun-woo and I greeted Kiso-young and headed to Sinchon together. Our goal was to meet Jayden NeBott, the foreigner who allegedly ordered Song Jong-beom to commit the crime.
“I’m Do Hyun-kwang, a prosecutor from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office. My name is Do Hyun-kwang. Prosecutor. Prosecutor. Prosecutor! Prosecutor! Prosecutor, U-Know? Let’s just talk. I’m calling to make an appointment. Promise. Promise!”
There was a bit of discord when I called the academy to make an appointment, but we waited for him at the coffee shop in front of the academy at the end of the night when the lectures were over.
Wi Jun-woo, who had been glancing at the entrance of Yeonshin, said.
“This guy won’t run away, right?”
“It’s better because it clearly shows that you’re behind me if I run away.”
“Can’t it get any better?”
“There is no evidence right now. It’s just Song Jong-beom’s testimony.”
“ah.”
Testimony is more difficult to accept in court than evidence, and not just because people are more likely to give false testimony.
People can be wrong and make mistakes, so what you firmly believe to be true may not be true.
Therefore, evidence to support the testimony is more important than anything else. That’s why we came to see Jaden now, to find even a shred of evidence.
“Jaden, since when did you say you were in Korea?”
“You said that you have been working as a native English teacher in Korea for five years.”
“You’ll be able to speak Korean well in five years, right?”
“If I can’t do it… …, I only trust you, Inspector.”
“Me?”
“You have to study hard to pass the exam. You’re good at English, right?”
“… …Jaden, I think you speak Korean well.”
“yes.”
Learning Korean is easier than you think, isn’t it?
“What was your criminal record?”
“Nothing special. I had my license suspended for drunk driving three years ago. I had a misdemeanor fine last year. I had a fine for attempted home invasion earlier this year.”
“Attempted home invasion?”
“According to the police report, he was drunk and mistook it for a friend’s house.”
“What is a petty crime?”
“I think he got reported for being drunk and making a lot of noise on the street.”
Drunk driving, yelling while drunk, knocking on other people’s doors while drunk.
Alcohol is the devil.
“Where does Jaden live?”
“I live in Sinchon. It’s close to my academy, so it’s convenient for commuting to and from work.”
“Hmm, that’s strange.”
“What is it?”
“My workplace is in Sinchon, and I live in Sinchon. But why do I go all the way to Gaemyeon-gu every morning to drink coffee?”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Then Jaden came into the coffee shop.
“Ah, Jaden! Here you go. Hear. Hear.”
As Jaden sat down across from us, I held out the coffee I had ordered in advance to him.
“Eat. I’ll shoot. I’m shooting.”
“Not shooting… … Well, yes.”
“Thank you for your time. My name is Do Hyeon-gwang, who called you during the day.”
“This is Jaden. Why are you calling, sir?”
Well, it’s a bit difficult to speak briefly. But I think we can have a conversation in Korean without any problems?
“Do you know Mr. Song Jong-beom?”
“Song Chong-beom? No. I don’t know.”
“Then what about Maison de Blanche? You know that, right?”
“Maison de Blanche? No. I don’t know.”
Look at this guy? He says he doesn’t know the person’s name because I didn’t ask. He even pretends not to know the coffee shop?
“Mr. Jayden, you’re American. You can’t say you don’t know English.”
“No. That’s French. Maison de Blanche.”
Oh, it was French?
“Anyway, you know that coffee shop? The one in Gaemyeon-gu? I heard Jayden drinks there every morning?”
“Oh, there. Yes, I know.”
“Why did you say you didn’t know before?”
“I’m not good at remembering names. Now that you mentioned the coffee, I remember the name of the cafe. I had coffee once there, and it was so good, so I just kept going there. That’s all.”
“……to?”
Aliotta sighed, hitting her forehead.
[What is ‘eh?’? Like an idiot.]
‘I’m not stupid!’
“Jaden, I get it. You said remember, right? You remember. Right?”
“Yes. I had coffee there. I had coffee. Every day.”
“The manager there is Song Jong-beom.”
“Manager? Oh, that manager hot guy? Yeah, I know.”
Oh my. They didn’t know each other’s names and called each other by nicknames.
Cool guy, hot guy, there’s chaos.
“Did you know that tree in front of the coffee shop over there is dead?”
“Carosh? Caro, Suu?”
Jaden tilted his head.
‘Oh, you don’t understand this? Aliotta, can’t you speak English?’
[I am not a language expert AI, but a law expert… … .]
‘That’s your professional excuse. Aren’t your excuse repertoires too consistent? Come up with some fresh excuses.’
[This isn’t an excuse, it’s the truth. Then, from now on, why don’t you teach him deep learning languages? You should teach him English grammar books and conversation. On his days off, he reads web novels all the time.]
‘It is the joy and ray of light in my life!’
I tried to have a conversation using Konglish, which was a bit disappointing.
“There’s a tree, right? Tree, tree. A tree die in front of the store, Yuno?”
“Oh, I know. Making a parking lot, making a dump, cutting a tree.”
“That’s right. I understand. They were supposed to kill only two trees, but three more died. There’s testimony that Jaden ordered it.”
“What? Sorry. “I don’t understand.”
Oh, shit. You know everything but you’re just pretending not to know?
How do I say this in English?
I looked back at Wi Jun-woo with slightly expectant eyes, but Wi Jun-woo avoided my eyes and only looked at the cup, as if a fly had fallen into it.
There’s nothing I can do.
“Oh, killer?”
“What??”
“Kill the tree? Three tree, pok pok pok, die die die?”
“… … What???”
Jayden, taken aback, began to gulp down the coffee in front of him.
“I don’t celebrate anyone. I love peace!”
“No, I’m not saying that Jaden killed her, but that he ordered her to do it.”
“What do you mean?”
It seems like you only don’t understand when it’s to your disadvantage.
Should I change the question?
“Jaden gave you money? To kill a tree? You pay money?”
“No. I don’t have a tone.”
“You pay money? You say, kill the tree?”
“No!”
“Aren’t you a teacher?”
“What?”
Oh, teacher. What is this in English?
“Ayou Teacher Crime?”
“Teacher crime? What the… … .”
“Oh, Teacher? Crime?”
“Yes, I teach English, but what crime? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Oh, I said yes. Did you hear that, Chief? I’m sure you said yes to my question.”
Yes, my name is!
You are truly Teacher Crime!!
