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

Before Han Dujing could speak,

Ding Xin then said unhurriedly, "Of course, this is also helping yourself..."

......

Annan City.

A Japanese restaurant located in Minpyeong-dong.

In the box.

There was no extra furniture inside.

There was only a low, flat table, quietly placed in the middle of the private room.

At the table.

Ding Xin sat cross-legged on the chair.

Patiently waiting for their guests.

Time passed second by second, and suddenly a series of chaotic footsteps came from outside the private room.

Followed by.

The door to the private room was flung open with a whoosh.

Then, two figures walked in one after the other.

Walking in front was a thin man, none other than the corrupt policeman Han Do-kyung.

He's acting as a middleman today.

After entering the door.

Han Do-kyung first bowed slightly and respectfully greeted, "Executive Director Ding!"

He then stepped aside, revealing the man behind him.

This person is slightly overweight, and as for his appearance, he does bear a striking resemblance to Professor Kim Sung-hyun.

He was also the main guest at Ding Xin's banquet today.

Kim Cha-in, a prosecutor at the Annam City District Prosecutors' Office in Gyeongsang Province.

Ding Xin stood up with a smile and gestured, "Prosecutor Kim, nice to meet you. Please take care of me."

Kim Cha-in looked at Ding Xin's outstretched hand.

I feel very conflicted.

Few people who become prosecutors are not intellectually challenged.

Ever since Yin Zhonghao got into trouble.

Han Dujing, that bastard, has been avoiding him ever since.

however.

Today, Han Do-kyung inexplicably showed up at his door, saying that someone wanted to meet him.

to be frank.

Since becoming a prosecutor, many people have wanted to meet with him.

but.

If Han Do-kyung arranges a meeting at this time...

That's quite unusual.

However, after learning Ding Xin's true identity...

Kim Cha-in hesitated.

It was this hesitation that led Kim Cha-in to appear here.

There was silence for a few seconds.

Kim Cha-in finally extended his right hand.

"Hello, first time meeting you."

It's a bit pretentious.

Ding Xin didn't mind and gestured for him to sit down.

His attitude is irrelevant for now; since he's here today, we can talk.

This is also one of the reasons why Ding Xin deliberately asked Han Dujing to act as an intermediary.

This was to test Kim Cha-in's attitude first.

For now.

The first step went fairly smoothly...

......

After both parties were seated.

Han Do-kyung did not leave either.

Of the three people present, he was the lowest in rank, so the task of serving tea and wine was assigned to him.

after all.

The topic we're going to discuss today is rather private and not suitable for other service personnel to be present.

After three rounds of drinking.

After exchanging some perfunctory pleasantries, Kim Cha-in couldn't hold back any longer.

He swallowed the food in his mouth and tentatively asked, "I wonder what brings Director Ding here today?"

Ding Xin smiled.

He did not answer his question directly.

Instead, he put down his chopsticks and asked, "I heard that Prosecutor Kim has been investigating Mayor Park Sung-bae recently?"

Kim Cha-in was clearly prepared for this problem, or rather, he had anticipated it long ago.

He did not show any surprise.

He replied nonchalantly, "So what if it is?"

That tone was a bit harsh.

"It seems my information was correct. In that case, I have a favor to ask. I wonder if Prosecutor Kim could grant him a lenient request?"

As Ding Xin spoke, he also fiddled with the wine glass in his hand.

It appeared very casual.

"Ah!"

Upon hearing this, Kim Cha-in sneered, saying with a hint of sarcasm, "Executive Director Ding, if I remember correctly, this is the first time we've met. We don't seem to have any prior acquaintance, do we?"

"I really can't understand why you can make this request so casually."

Say it.

He pointed to the table in front of him and sneered, "Is it all because of this meal?"

"That can't be done!"

Ding Xin shook his head and moved the empty cup in his hand in front of Han Dujing.

He was signaling to fill it up.

"Prosecutor Kim, you can make any request you have, as long as you agree..."

"Require?"

Kim Cha-in slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly: "Jung Shin, what do you take us prosecutors for?"

So powerful.

The wine that had just filled the glass splashed out.

Say it.

Kim Cha-in turned to leave.

"So, don't the prosecutors of our Republic of Korea want to hear the conditions I've set?"

Ding Xin's voice remained calm and casual.

But it's Han Dujing.

At this moment, he was sweating profusely.

Ding Xin tapped the table with his finger, signaling him to continue pouring wine; Jin Cheren's action had reduced the wine in the glass by a third.

"Ding Xin, do you think your actions are appropriate? I'm warning you one more time: your current behavior constitutes blatant bribery of a state official..."

Then why did you stop?
