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

certainly...

This is nothing to hide.

To put it bluntly...

In essence, this incident is a factional struggle within the prosecutor's office.

What Ding Xin and his team need to do...

It's actually somewhat similar to the work of the police, collecting evidence.

Upon receiving the news, Kang Hyung-cheol immediately reported it to his superior, Go Chang-soo...

Then...

And so, the Crouching Dragon and the Young Phoenix quietly came together again...

"can!"

Kang Hyung-cheol gave a decisive and affirmative answer, while Go Chang-soo stared at him in disbelief, looking completely stunned. After a moment of blankness, he snapped out of it and yelled, "You can do it? Are you kidding me?"

As he spoke...

Go Chang-soo stood up and tapped Kang Hyung-cheol's chest: "Who do you think you are? You're just a lowly chief of police. Do you think you can compare to a senior prosecutor from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office?"

......

Chapter 400 Beautiful Fantasy

Kang Hyung-cheol subconsciously shrank back.

Dodging the spittle flying towards him, he chuckled awkwardly and said, "Of course I can't, but there's still you, Minister."

"I?"

Upon hearing his words, Gao Changxiu's eyes nearly burst, and his roar grew even louder: "Don't you have any self-awareness? Can I, a minister, be compared to the minister of the procuratorate?"

He simply couldn't understand...

What is this person in front of me, who is both my subordinate and my best friend, thinking?

What message did Li Zicheng pass on?

It's a major reshuffle at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, a power struggle involving the three most powerful departments within the office!

Is this something those two young punks could possibly get involved in?

Let's not talk about them...

Even their superiors, the Public Security Bureau Chief and the Public Security Supervisor, have to think twice!

"Don't get agitated. Why are you so agitated at your age?"

With a forced smile and an air of nonchalance, Kang Hyung-cheol gently nudged Go Chang-soo back down, immediately offering flattery: "Don't underestimate yourself. How are you any less capable than the head of the Prosecutor's Office? Even if they're powerful, they can only demand cooperation from their subordinates; they can't control you..."

Besides, without our cooperation, what are those prosecutors? What can they possibly find out?

His words sounded very arrogant at first glance...

But in fact...

But he wasn't wrong!

As we all know...

South Korea's Criminal Procedure Law stipulates that prosecutors have unquestionable decision-making power during the investigation of criminal cases in South Korea.

South Korean police can only conduct case investigations under the direction and supervision of prosecutors.

This has created a general impression among the public...

That means South Korean police are essentially subordinate to prosecutors!

but...

Rules are rules, but people are flexible!

This so-called criminal procedure law is simply not applicable in practice.

In the actual process of handling a case...

Unless it's a particularly serious case, investigations are generally conducted independently by the police, without the involvement of prosecutors...

Or...

In most cases, the prosecutor is completely unaware of the outcome until the police investigation is completed!

and...

Even when cooperating in investigating a case.

Under normal circumstances, prosecutors will not act too aggressively towards police officers.

It's a very simple principle...

Without the cooperation of the police, what kind of trouble can a prosecutor possibly get away with on his own?

How many cases can be handled in a year?

Yes...

When faced with a difficult case...

Each prosecutor conducting an independent investigation can compel police officers to cooperate.

However, the orders are limited to lower-ranking officers.

To be more specific...

Most of them are officers below the rank of guard, including police inspectors, sergeants, patrol officers, and combat police...

Of course, this also includes auxiliary police officers, volunteer police officers...

This was also back then...

Choi Ki-cheol, who was a police superintendent, dared to confront Prosecutor Joo Yang in the early stages and even turned around to investigate the reasons for threatening Joo Yang!

Although they were dealt with terribly later on.

But even so...

This also demonstrates that high-ranking police officers, such as chief inspectors and above, have the confidence to confront prosecutors head-on if they do not commit crimes!

certainly...

Having confidence is one thing.

If you really run into them, it's best to avoid provoking them if possible!

If things go wrong, it's easy to ruin one's reputation in old age!

"You think you can get away with praising me a bit? Let me tell you, give up on that idea now!"

Gao Changxiu, panting heavily, glared at him and said, "Let them fight it out. If you dare to overstep even half a step, I'll immediately suspend you from your post. Don't think I'm joking with you!"

"Look at what you're saying, when have I ever made things difficult for you?"

With a slightly mocking tone, Jiang Hengzhe sat up, half-sitting on the desk, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and slowly said, "What I mean by 'participation' is definitely not what you're thinking. I'm not stupid; why would I provoke those scholars in the prosecutor's office? Don't you think so?"

"Scholar" is a witty expression.

It's usually used to describe law enforcement officers who are hands-on and practical, a term often used to jokingly refer to those who are academically inclined.

The implication is probably that it means someone who only talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk.

"Then what do you mean?"

Gao Changxiu frowned, looking at him with suspicion.

"We won't participate directly; we'll leverage the situation and fish in troubled waters..."

Jiang Hengzhe chuckled, exhaling a puff of smoke. Without keeping everyone in suspense, he analyzed with an air of authority: "Look, that black bastard Ding Xin has really gotten arrogant. He actually dares to directly participate in the infighting within the national power structure, which is tantamount to taking sides..."

Based on the information reported by Lee Ja-sung, this operation is bound to be significant, which will inevitably attract the attention of Prosecutor Yoon Byung-wook...

Retaliation is inevitable!

This minister had already interrogated Ding Xin before, but without getting anything out of him, so the next time he'll probably use different methods...

Based on your many years of experience, what methods do you think he would choose?

After asking the last question, his eyes shone brightly, while Gao Changxiu's brows furrowed even more. After a few seconds of contemplation, he suddenly raised his head: "What do you mean?"

"Correct!"

Years of working together had forged a tacit understanding. Jiang Hengzhe nodded and smiled, "There's a high probability they'll use the same methods they used against the Kinmen Hotel, meaning they'll ultimately have to rely on the police force..."

So, what we need to do is very simple...

We just need to wait and see how things develop, then get on board and use this minister's name to do what we've planned!

Regardless of how the Kinmen Group reacts, it will only target that minister...

And you, unlike last time, don't have to bear the pressure alone anymore...

"Doesn't that mean we've essentially chosen sides?"
