Woojin had not jumped to conclusions. He had obtained the records of misappropriated funds and ledgers, and all the evidence of corruption was perfectly prepared. Yet, he did not conclusively assume Kim Jeonggeun’s downfall. No one knew who might turn the tables. Even though Woojin had prepared everything perfectly, Kim Jeonggeun might have prepared even more meticulously. Woojin had to consider the possibility that Kim Jeonggeun might not go to prison. First, he needed to cut off Kim Jeonggeun’s arms. Whether Kim Jeonggeun paid for his crimes or not was not the immediate concern. What mattered more was seizing control of Hankyung’s capital and slush funds and holding the list of political and business lobbying.aeaff143724766d0

Haewon’s indifference to others was sometimes convenient. He didn’t care what Woojin was looking at. Woojin was sorting through Hankyung’s ledgers and important documents on the floor of Haewon’s officetel. Such highly confidential materials were dangerous to handle anywhere. Haewon’s officetel, which had no connection to any of this, was the safest and most suitable place Woojin knew.0fceb9dcaf259fbc

The chief secretary 78e576204e kept calling, but 45e9f8a957 Woojin did not 0f769f90e4 answer.

Woojin sighed at the longer-than-expected list. He rested one knee on the floor and propped his elbow on it, rubbing his forehead. It was clear that some people would try to save Kim Jeonggeun by any means necessary after this surprise seizure and search revealed the list. Before that happened, Woojin needed to cut off Kim Jeonggeun’s last lifeline. Woojin contacted his usual source within the prosecution.aff293a13d739d69

It was a miracle that I survived. He looked at me with a pitiful gaze, as if he couldn’t understand why I was like this. He said it looked like I was enjoying it. He didn’t understand my feelings at all. Something inside me shattered. I was breathing, but I wasn’t alive. I wasn’t dead, but I wasn’t alive either. What should I do? What should I do…….

Lee Taeshin had recorded everything about the hunting ground as Woojin had feared. He had sketched the inside of the hunting ground with surprising detail and had drawn himself being lured and hunted with intense pen strokes.
