“He keeps saying Spider-Man killed Chairman Jo. He’s not in his right mind to the point where the police are considering reevaluating the drug test.”

“Spider-Man? Ha… he’s completely lost it.”

Seorin chuckled and closed her eyes. Then, a sudden thought flashed through her mind.

Spider-Man? Spider-Man?

It was because of the middle-aged man she had seen at Mrs. Son’s house not long ago. The moment when she wondered about the incongruous spider tattoo on his gentle image.

‘Could it be…’

But the voice of Mrs. Son echoing in her mind pieced together the puzzle like a jigsaw.

[Dash]If… if you were to witness Chairman Jo’s last moments… what would you want to say?
In an instant, Serin covered the bursting scream with her hands. Although there was no decisive evidence, she couldn’t help but think that Mrs. Son might be the one who pursued Chairman Jo and personally took care of him.

Mrs. Son—someone.

Once a glamorous and elegant woman, now a white-haired elderly lady, she was a powerful figure in the underworld, known as the queen of the underworld, who had dominated the underworld for decades.

Indeed, the underworld was not a business where one could easily make a living.

Moreover, given that Mrs. Son, with her clear give-and-take capabilities, encountered a debtor after twenty years, her anger might have been as intense as his.

It was Mrs. Son!

Mrs. Son directly handled Chairman Jo.

But Serin couldn’t speak those words aloud. It was a logic based on mere speculation without accurate evidence, and there was no way to prove that logic.

“Why are you thinking like that?”

Taejun’s voice delved into her deep contemplation. Now fully conscious, Serin met Taejun’s gaze filled with dark desire.

“Haven’t we decided to live our lives now?”

Saying that, he kissed her neck. The hot lips licked her skin as if to burn it.

As the electrifying sensation rushed through, Serin clenched the bedsheet roughly and whispered.

“That’s right. But… there’s still one more person.”

“Who?”

Taejun, vigorously caressing her body, asked.

“Heo Gyeongjun… I’m talking about Heo Gyeongjun.”

Another guy who deserved punishment.

Heo Gyeongjun had temporarily faded into the background due to Chairman Jo’s attention, but he was no less of a criminal.

However, Taejun, smiling as if it weren’t a problem, gave her short kisses on the lips multiple times.

“Why are you smiling? What, something good happened?”

“Well, sort of.”

“What is it?”

“In fact, Heo Gyeongjun is someone we don’t need to worry about.”

“Why?”

“Heo Gyeongjun is being investigated tomorrow, right? Then, watch the news tomorrow. You’ll be thrilled too.”

“What is it! Tell me! I can’t sleep!”

At Serin’s urging, Taejun reluctantly revealed.

“The prosecutor in charge is a very ruthless person. Well-known for thoroughly investigating figures in politics and business. So, you might not know, but if that prosecutor decides to investigate Heo Gyeongjun, it won’t be a piece of cake.”

Although Serin didn’t know whom Taejun was referring to, his words gave her a tingling feeling at the end of her heart.

Indeed, there was no mercy for the one who committed a crime.

Now, smiling, Serin kissed his lips.

“So, shall we… start living our lives now?”

Meanwhile, at that moment, Heo Gyeongjun was reporting to the prosecutor’s office.

[Don’t worry too much, Mae-hyeong. I’ve firmly explained, so they won’t treat you too harshly.]

“By the way, do you know who the prosecutor in charge is?”

[No, not yet. But I’ve applied some pressure. The person who’s not afraid to handle such a case should be a newbie. So, don’t worry too much and come back after the investigation.] “Where did that happen? Chairman Jo is also dead, you know.”

[Exactly. Now that the sinner is dead, even if your brother-in-law turns everything upside down to Chairman Jo, no one can prove anything, and what has your brother-in-law done, covering up Chairman Jo’s sins? It’s not like he committed murder.]

In response to his brother-in-law Kim Minjun’s words, Heo Gyeongjun nodded.

Yes, except for the incident involving Chairman Jo, he had done his best in every case, making him almost transparent in other matters. So, there might be nothing to expose besides that incident.

That fact, to some extent, brought him a bit of comfort.

However, once he arrived at the prosecutor’s office and sat in the interrogation room, anxiety returned. Perhaps it was because of his mood, but the atmosphere at the prosecutor’s office felt particularly chilly.

“It should be okay. It will be fine. Still, my brother-in-law has some influence in this direction, doesn’t he?”

He clung to the hope that only a rookie prosecutor would be assigned.

How anxiously he waited! Finally, he heard a knock, and the door opened.

But when an unusually sinister figure entered, Gyeongjun’s brain went on a brief buffering moment.

“I’m sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I have too much on my plate.”

That face, where had he seen it before?

A haphazard face with warm hazel eyes that left a lasting impression. However, contrary to that impression, his record was merciless, almost murderous!

“No, how…”

He had said it would be only a rookie prosecutor!

“Unexpected, right? I understand. But I had no choice. Even though I didn’t want to take on this case, it seemed burdensome because of the former police chief, so…”

“!”

“So, I reluctantly volunteered.”

Damn it! He stepped on a pile of shit!

As he smiled, revealing his white, even teeth, the warm sunshine seemed to emanate from the cold air of the prosecutor’s office.

But never be deceived by that brightness.

He was none other than,

“I’m the prosecutor in charge, Wi Seungjun.”

Because he was the crazy dog of the prosecutor’s office.
