Chapter 74: Chapter 74 - A Hint of History (8)
Immediately after Detective Jo brought her culprit to the station, Jun brought Ji An back to her room to rest. Inside, Ha Na was already full of regret and burst immediately into tears when looking at Ji An could barely walk.
"Ji An! I am sorry, I shouldn't leave you alone. What should I do if there is anything happened to you?" Ha Na eyes swollen since she kept crying and crying. Her tears was not even stopping even when Ji An was safe and sound.
"Ha Na, it's okay. I just lose my strength. I am okay." Ji An hugged Ha Na. She was stronger now and she should comfort Ha Na. Before, she always received comfort from Ha Na because she was not strong enough. But now, everything was different. She realized that she could not always rely and cause disturbance to other people.
Their moment was interrupted by a knock coming from the door.
"Excuse me, Song Ji An-ssi. I am coming on behalf of Detective Jo to get your witness statement. My name is Detective An."
"Hello, Detective An. Please take a seat."
Ha Na who still feeling guilty, did not even let go Ji An hand for a second while she was giving her statement. Song Ho Oppa had followed Detective Jo to the station immediately after he heard the news. Together, they were looking forward for his statement to get more information about Congressman Park.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Boss. He has been captured by the police."
"Idiot! You know what to do." Congressman Park instructed, without even changing his expression. He had been sitting in Congressman chair for a while, nothing would be able to shake his position off. There should be no obstacle on his road towards presidency.
His telephone rang,"Hello."
Congressman Park face immediately changed. "Oh, hello President. Yes, I am aware about his stupidity. My man is going to take care of him, this small issue should not bother you at all. By the way, how about our next arrangement? Is she ready?"
"Hahahahaha. President is indeed smart and know business. I will guarantee the next project will be yours."
After hanging up his phone, Congressman Park mood lifted up. His new toy was coming soon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the Police Station
The small interrogation room had a white paint with a lot of cracks all over the wall, with every crack and discoloration might have their own story. Only two small chairs and one table were place in the middle of the room. There was a mirror on one side of the wall, which was linked to the room next door, where witnesses and other detectives to watch the interrogation process. Detective Jo had taken one seat inside the interrogation room, while opposite him was Ji An attacker.
Song Ho Oppa, on the other hand, was watching the whole interrogation process from the room next door, together with a few junior detectives under Detective Jo. They had been sitting inside for a good ten minutes.
Detective Jo did not ask question and the attacker looked more nervous as time passed by. He kept drinking water from a small plastic guy provided by the police.
Finally Detective Jo was breaking the silence between them,
"Kim Su Ho. Age 37. Married with a daughter. Both are currently living separately from you due to your previous work schedule. You worked as a bodyguard for Congressman Park before you finally turned into criminal. Any other personal details you would like to add in?"
"I am not a criminal! And I am still working as a bodyguard!" Su Ho was roaring.
"No, you are not. We have inquired to your superior under Congressman Park and they mentioned you have been fired a few months back."
"A few months? Huh? What kind of rubbish you are talking about?"
Knowing that Su Ho was still in denial, Detective Jo took out a recorder, letting him listen to his interview with Kim Su Ho superior.
Once the recorder was on, Kim Su Ho who still could not accept the reality was getting more agitated and angrier. Even though his hand was under handcuffed, his feet were not bounded. He immediately stood up and angrily kicked the fragile chair until it was sprawled towards the corner of the interrogation room.
"I am not fired! This is all nonsense! I want my lawyer!"
Since the culprit was asking for a lawyer, the interrogation should be stopped until he was getting a lawyer to represent him.
"Okay, if that's what you want. We will talk to you once you lawyered up. But, once the lawyer in, we would not be able to talk any more deal. Do you understand?"
"No! Wait! What kind of deal?"
Gotcha! Detective Jo sat back,"If you are helping our investigation, I could talk to the prosecutor to lessen your charge. But it will obviously depend on what kind of information you could give us."
Su Ho was deep in thought. He was not smart, which was why he was still a lowly bodyguard who could only use his physical skill. As soon as he heard the police might help him lessen the charge, he started to think that the idea was not bad.
"Okay, I am telling you. But you must promise me, you will lessen my charge."
"As I said before, it will depend on your information."
"I am going to talk. I will tell you everything I know."
"Good, should we start?" Detective Jo turned on his recorder.
"Tell me everything you know."
"I never really follow Congressman Park, but since I was doing good, they were giving me a chance to advance. You know even there are ranks for bodyguards under Congressman Park. The lowest should start working from guard house, in shift before assisting to guard his family and those bodyguards who served Congressman Park would be the most highly skilled and follow him everywhere. That day, I was lucky to be called under a shift with Congressman Park. One of the senior said, I should use the opportunity to advance my rank."
"Cut it short. Let's go to the main point."
"They brought me over to high end condominium at downtown. I was outside waiting inside the car, when suddenly I saw two girls ran out and hid behind dustbin. My senior called me through our internal comm to take care if I saw two girls running out from the building."
"So, I am waiting for the opportunity to rise and ran my car over them. I should finish both but only one girl was coming out from the dustbin. I did not want to waste any opportunity so I just hit her with the car and drove off. However, they were considering my effort a complete failure and I was kicked out from the team. From then on, I vowed to take my revenge to Song Ji An. She was the one who made my life miserable. If only she was not around back then, my mission was completed and I should bask myself in glory. Not in this lowly place."
Detective Jo who only listened to him, ranting about the accident as if killing people was killing a mice, feeling very disgusted. There was no remorse nor regret when he was recalling Min Young accident. A life was sacrificed and what he could only think was about his life, his rank and his power within the team.
Such a disgrace to humanity, but Detective Jo knew that he needed to persevere inside the disgusting conversation to get more information. "Is that all? I don't think your information is very useful."
"How could you say that?" Su Ho slammed the table and Detective Jo noticed his phone vibration from a text message. Quickly glancing towards it, it was a message from Song Ji An.
[Song Ji An: Detective Jo, thank you for saving my life. I am sorry I did not say it earlier today. By the way, I have told Detective An everything for my witness testimony]
'Detective An? Who?' Detective Jo knew no one with surname An under his team. He ignored the angry Kim Su Ho and ask his junior to bring him back to detention area while he called Song Ho from the room next door.
"I just got a weird message from Song Ji An. She said I sent someone for a witness testimony."
"Oh, she told me also. I just texted her. Someone called Detective An. What's so weird about it?"
"I don't know anyone with surname An under my department."
Silence ensued. "What do you mean, Detective Jo? Then who is that guy?"
"I don't know but....."
"Detective Jo!!!!" A police officer ran frantically towards him from the hallway.
"What?"
"We have problem!"
"Again? I have enough problem for today? What is it now? New case? Tell the boss I am occupied with this assault case and he need to reallocate the case to other team."
"No, no! It's Kim Su Ho. He is dead."
