The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

Outsiders are temporarily prohibited from entering the office area.

"Alright, you're the prosecutor, you're in charge here..."

Ding Xin shrugged indifferently, leaned back, and remained silent.

All of a sudden.

The interrogation room became unusually quiet.

Time passed by minute by minute.

finally...

Park Ahn-cheol couldn't hold back any longer. He had come with a mission, and if this stalemate continued, Ding Xin might not care, but he would likely be reprimanded for incompetence...

So when he saw that force wasn't working, Park Ahn-cheol decided to try a different approach.

His expression relaxed, he sighed, and said earnestly, "Director Ding, you must understand, I'm actually giving you a chance..."

"..."

Ding Xin remained silent.

He was only given a look that said, "Please continue your performance."

certainly...

Ding Xin's purpose was never to remain silent; otherwise, why would he have come here?

Using the right to remain silent is simply a way for him to avoid being caught up in other people's rhythm.

He just wanted to get straight to the point!

Figure out exactly why these prosecutors are targeting him!

"The reason we brought you here for investigation is because we have evidence of your crimes. A negative attitude will only make things awkward for both of us, don't you think?"

Park Ahn-cheol patiently persuaded him.

But he overlooked the most important point...

"No, Prosecutor Park Ahn-cheol..."

Ding Xin now seriously doubted whether this senior prosecutor had some mental issues, fearing he might actually be a bit dim-witted: "You keep going on and on, neither stating what crime I committed, nor providing any evidence, just spouting nonsense..."

Also, why are you changing your story like this? One minute you're telling me to cooperate with the investigation, the next you're saying you're investigating me...

What exactly are you trying to do?

"Forehead..."

After hearing this, Park Ahn-cheol was completely stunned.

It seems that it really is...

From the moment he entered, he was constantly being agitated by the man in front of him.

Up to now...

It seems like everything I said was just nonsense...

Think of this.

Park Ahn-cheol glanced subconsciously at the one-way observation mirror on the north side of the room.

Minister Yoon Byung-wook had previously said he would come in person.

Park Ahn-cheol just hoped that he wouldn't arrive so soon...

pity.

Backfired.

Yoon Byung-wook arrived the moment Park Ahn-cheol changed his attitude.

At this moment, he...

He was staring at everything in the interrogation room with a gloomy expression through a one-way viewing mirror.

"I'm just advising you to tone down your attitude. Cooperating with us is the best option for you..."

Park Ahn-cheol snapped out of his daze and forced himself to make amends.

He then took a deep breath and, without waiting for Ding Xin to speak, began the interrogation.

No more dawdling!

He admitted that the black guy in front of him was difficult to deal with, and that using underhanded tactics didn't seem to be working...

"Based on the evidence we have, we have reason to suspect that you are involved in crimes including organizing violence, intentional homicide, intentional assault, intentional coercion, intentional intimidation, tax evasion, and illegal bribery..."

"Where's the evidence?"

Ding Xin interrupted Park Ahn-cheol's speech directly, still forcibly controlling the pace: "Prosecutor Park Ahn-cheol, are you reciting the criminal law to me line by line?"

How could I, a law-abiding and honest citizen of the Republic of Korea, have committed so many crimes?

No, to be precise, how could someone as law-abiding as me possibly commit a crime?

How ridiculous!

Do you really find it funny?

Park Ahn-cheol smiled meaningfully and said, "Who doesn't know the infamous reputation of Jeong Shin, the leader of the Faith Faction in Garibong-dong? Do you dare say you haven't organized violence?"

"What is the Lutheran sect? I don't know..."

Ding Xin shook his head, looking completely innocent: "Besides, I'm the executive director of the Jinmen Group, why would I want to get involved in gangs?"

"You should know the Yang brothers, Yang Hua and Yang He, from the Fuqing faction, right? Where are they now?"

Park Ahn-cheol asked again.

"What Fuqing School, Yang Hua, Yang He? How would I know who they are, let alone where they are!"

Ding Xin continued to shake his head.

Without pausing, he retorted, "Besides, I've already said I'm a legitimate businessman! A major shareholder of a conglomerate! So why would I lower myself to associate with these gangsters?"

"Heh, you've been emphasizing your chaebol status ever since..."

Park Ahn-cheol sneered and pressed on again: "According to the information, you are only 22 years old this year. The same information shows that your background is not good, even very bad!"

Now please answer me...

Executive Director Ding, how did you become a major shareholder of a conglomerate in just two years?

In other words, where did your initial capital come from?

The words fell.

Park Ahn-cheol remained silent, his gaze sharp as he looked at Ding Xin, awaiting his answer.

This time...

Ding Xin did not answer immediately.

Instead, he frowned and fell silent.

Something!

turn out to be...

The two seemingly convincing questions at the beginning were merely hooks...

This was all preparation for the third question...
