Hyesung quickly read Ahn Ki-baek's expression.
"Judging by your reaction, it seems you're familiar with them."
Hyesung had no choice but to dig deeper into the matter, especially after discovering that the Yushinpa might be involved. He already knew from Executive Director Choi that Jung Sejin of Daehyun was the mastermind behind everything.
But knowing who the culprit was didnât mean he could just slap handcuffs on him. They needed evidence to turn public opinion aroundâconcrete proof that Jung Sejin orchestrated the whole affair.
Asking directly, like he did with Executive Director ChoiââDid you do it?ââwasnât going to work this time. And an amateurish threat wouldnât be effective against someone who had masterminded the entire situation.@@novelbin@@
He needed to gather as much information and evidence as possible. He had tasked Choi with digging into Jung Sejin, but his focus now had to be on the Yushinpa.
Hyesung didnât know much about the connection between Yushinpa and Daehyun. He only had a vague idea that both organizations were involved in the current incident.
So, he needed to gather as much information as possible. The Yushinpa were still gangsters at heart, so getting information through normal channels would be impossible. He thought about reaching out to Deoksu, who ran a private detective agency, but Deoksu worked independently.
If the Yushinpa found out someone was investigating them, theyâd likely hide even deeper before any evidence could be collected, and Deoksu might get hurt.
He couldnât afford to create more victims.
So, there was only one method left: he needed help from someone who wasnât operating as a lone private investigator, someone with enough influence and knowledge of the underworld, and someone who might have information about the Yushinpa.
