Peninsula: Director of Public Prosecutions Starts with Daily Intelligence

Little...little white face? ! ! (asking for monthly ticket)”Mun-seo, does your Capital City Eastern Police Precinct have a Director named Zhao?”

Lee Se-hyun asked casually.

”Hmm... it seems there’s a Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao, but I don’t know if he’s the one Prosecutor Li is talking about.”

”Your Precinct Chief Zhao is quite something, keeping a mistress on the side,” Lee Se-hyun teased.

”No way?” Cao Wenxi exclaimed in surprise. ”Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao is famously henpecked. If his wife found out...”

”What?” Lee Se-hyun asked.

”You don’t believe me?”

”It’s not a matter of believing or not, Prosecutor Li,” Cao Wenxi hesitated, then explained, ”You don’t know much about our Eastern Police Precinct’s Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao.”

”He rose to power through his wife. His position as Director is entirely due to his in-laws’ influence. Everyone in the Police Station knows that.”

”If you say Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao is keeping a mistress, and his wife finds out, he’s probably finished.”

Lee Se-hyun nodded, fully agreeing with Cao Wenxi’s point.

Someone like Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao would have been called a ’live-in son-in-law’ in ancient times, or more colloquially, a ’prince consort.’ In modern terms, he’s a ’kept man.’

Unlike traditional families, such situations usually arise when the wife’s family is powerful.

Precinct Chief Zhao, I didn’t expect you to be so bold. A kept man daring to keep a mistress?

Cao Wenxi interjected, ”Prosecutor Li, why are you asking this? Is there a conflict between you and Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao?”

Lee Se-hyun shook his head and said helplessly, ”You might not believe it, but Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao might be my father-in-law.”

”Ah?!!!”

Cao Wenxi’s jaw dropped. He had never heard that Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao had a daughter?

Perhaps it was an issue with the ’essence’ being removed from ’essence liquid,’ but Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao, despite being over forty, had no children. Everyone in the Police Station knew this.

”Alright, that’s enough talk,” Lee Se-hyun instructed. ”Keep an eye on this Deputy Precinct Chief Zhao for me. It would be best if...”

”Yes sir! Mission accomplished!” Cao Wenxi said delightedly. This was a task Lee Se-hyun had given him.

It was both an assessment and a test, an opportunity for advancement!

He really wanted to improve!!!

Suddenly, a graceful figure, smelling of jasmine, walked over with hurried steps, followed by a lawyer in a suit.

Lee Se-hyun looked on curiously, surprised to see a familiar face.

”It’s you!”

”It’s you!”

The two spoke almost simultaneously. Lee Se-hyun sighed, truly, fate plays strange tricks; destiny is full of such coincidences.

The person before him was Ryu Jimin, the owner of the wallet Kim Kunam had stolen earlier.

Unlike their previous meeting, Ryu Jimin was simply dressed this time, in a very casual outfit, yet she exuded a uniquely distinct beauty.

Languid yet passionate, an iceberg containing fire, the embodiment of ice and fire, a cold and sexy presence.

”Why are you here?” Ryu Jimin asked, brushing a strand of hair aside.

”Uh... good question.” Lee Se-hyun was speechless.

This question stumped him. He didn’t know how to answer Ryu Jimin. Should he say he was here to catch bad guys?

Seeing Lee Se-hyun didn’t respond, Ryu Jimin didn’t press further and rushed off with her lawyer.

”What a day,” Lee Se-hyun sighed.

”Wow, Prosecutor Li, you’re quite the ladies’ man. Beautiful women know you wherever you go,” Cao Wenxi flatteringly said with a mischievous grin. ”I’m so jealous, Old Cao here.”

Lee Se-hyun smiled, patted Mun-seo’s shoulder, and said, ”Alright, stop with the chatter. Let’s go see how my Prosecutor Piao Guochang’s interrogation is going.”

Lee Se-hyun and Cao Wenxi went together to find Piao Guochang... As soon as they entered the interrogation room, they heard Changwei beating... ah no, it was Changwei crying for Laifu.

”Dad!”

Kim Winter’s tears fell like pearls, seemingly without end.

As the ancients said, there are three great joys in life: timely rain after a long drought, success in imperial examinations, the wedding night, and meeting one’s father in a foreign land.

Kim Kunam held back his tears, his eyes red, as he looked at the girl in front of him, his heart aching.

Traveling thousands of miles to find his wife and daughter, crossing oceans, he had finally found his daughter.

But unfortunately, why was it in such a setting?

Kim Kunam was speechless, squeezing out a few words through gritted teeth: ”Dong-yeon... you’ve grown up.”

It was a scene of a loving father and devoted child from the moment they entered, and Lee Se-hyun almost cried.

Lee Se-hyun clapped his hands: ”Oh my, how touching, just like a TV drama.”

He had encountered Kim Kunam very early on. The first time he met him, Kim Kunam was an undocumented immigrant, a pure love warrior searching thousands of miles for his wife and daughter.

Now, meeting again, Kim Kunam had transformed from an undocumented immigrant into a criminal, but fortunately, he seemed to have found his daughter.

She’s quite cute.

Lee Se-hyun muttered, these father and daughter don’t resemble each other at all! Kim Winter probably inherited everything from her mother, whom he had never met.

Seeing someone had arrived, Kim Winter wiped away her tears with her sleeve, then glared fiercely at Lee Se-hyun.

Lee Se-hyun lowered his clapping hands, awkwardly saying, ”Did you two have lunch?”

Honestly, he really didn’t mean it; he was genuinely moved and clapped from the bottom of his heart.

Who knew that Cao Wenxi, beside him, seemingly oblivious to Kim Winter’s discomfort, kept clapping vigorously.

”aish~ It’s really too touching,” Cao Wenxi exaggeratedly wiped away tears, as if he had found his own father. ”I’m reminded of my father back home.”

This outburst was quite something. Everyone thought Cao Wenxi had found his long-lost father, like a little tadpole finding its mother, after enduring countless hardships, finally... Good job, Mun-seo!

Kim Winter immediately bared her teeth, wishing she could pull out a magic wand and stab Cao Wenxi to death.

Lee Se-hyun inwardly praised Cao Wenxi. Mun-seo, you understand how to shift hatred. Now Kim Winter’s attention wouldn’t be on him.

”What are you putting on a show for?!” Kim Winter, like an angry puppy, rushed over.

Mun-seo, startled, hid behind Lee Se-hyun.

Ryu Jimin quickly pulled the little puppy, holding Kim Winter tightly with both hands, and reprimanded, ”Kim Winter!!!”

They were here to resolve Kim Kunam’s matter, not to argue with others.

”You all just wait!” Kim Winter fumed, pointing at Lee Se-hyun, ”Especially you, pretty boy!”

”Pretty... pretty boy?!”

Lee Se-hyun was inexplicably targeted. Kim Winter had decided he and Cao Wenxi were in cahoots, having just mocked Kim Winter together. He never thought he’d be called a ’pretty boy’ one day; he’d really made something of himself.

”Dong-yeon, Prosecutor Li is a good person,” Kim Kunam spoke up to help.

At this moment, he was locked in a chair, his hands cuffed and unable to move, looking very pitiful.

From the first time Lee Se-hyun met him, this man was either on his way to being arrested or being cuffed, a truly tragic figure.

Hearing this, Kim Winter’s anger dissipated significantly. After all, it wasn’t Lee Se-hyun and his group who caused her father to be imprisoned, but Piao Guochang.

”Where’s Piao Guochang?” Lee Se-hyun looked around but didn’t see him, saying, ”Isn’t that rascal the interrogator? How did he manage to lose his own people during an interrogation?”

At this moment, Piao Guochang was wronged. He was interrogating someone when, out of nowhere, Kim Winter appeared, followed by Ryu Jimin and a top-tier lawyer.

The most troublesome thing wasn’t even these; it was the phone call he had received.

A call from Yang Dong-cheol, Chief Yang!
