Episode 113
Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office, Public Investigation Division 1.
“…Where is that location?”
Prosecutor Ryu asked with a very calm face and voice despite being surprised.
-Yes, Prosecutor. It’s in the Hannam-dong area. I’ll send you the address right away.
“You haven’t told Attorney Seonwoo Yeong yet, right?”
-No… That’s correct, but should I tell her now?
“No. You did well. Please continue to maintain security like that.”
Prosecutor Ryu answered immediately. Even as a prosecutor specializing in national security, handling serious crimes related to national security, his wife was truly frightening.
If it were her, just the fact that something like this happened would completely devastate the surroundings!
-Yes, Prosecutor. I also think that would be best. Then should I just continue following? Are you planning to come here directly?
Secretary Sim also seemed to completely agree, as he readily accepted without asking further questions.
“Yes. The only adult in that car is Yewon’s manager, correct?”
-Yes. That’s what we confirmed earlier. The license plate number is …
“That information should be sufficient for location tracking. Please follow closely so we can respond to the situation immediately.”
-Yes, Prosecutor. I will risk my life to protect the young lady and her friends.
Prosecutor Ryu hung up quietly instead of answering.
No matter how he thought about it, only he and his wife should risk their lives for their daughter, but he didn’t think he had the right to crush Secretary Sim’s feelings.
He pondered for a moment. Kidnapping or luring minors (probably ending as an attempt), and if they tried to steal a vehicle using weapons, special robbery charges could also apply.
…This seemed like sufficient justification for even Prosecutor Ryu, who was careful and cautious about not abusing his authority, to step in.
“Chief Ju?”
Prosecutor Ryu stood up from his seat and called for the investigator he trusted most.
“Yes, Prosecutor Ryu.”
“It seems four children might be kidnapped right now. Would you accompany me for a moment?”
“What?!!?”
Chief Ju was shocked. If it was a report that came directly to the top ace of Public Investigation Division 1, could it be the President’s children?! No, but not just one or two, but four?!
Not only Chief Ju, but everyone in the prosecutor’s office was surprised.
“What’s going on, Prosecutor Ryu?”
Deputy Chief Prosecutor Hwang of Public Investigation Division 1 stopped while passing by and asked him.
“Ah, yes. It’s nothing major, but there’s someone trying to kidnap my daughter, so I want to check it out.”
“…?!”
Even Prosecutor Hwang, who had 22 years of experience through all kinds of situations, couldn’t help but be surprised this time.
“What?!!? What is everyone doing right now!! Everyone get over here immediately!!!”
“Ah, you don’t need to go that far…”
“Prosecutor Ryu. Don’t you know that if they’re targeting you, it means there’s really a major force behind them?! This isn’t just your problem!”
At the deputy chief prosecutor’s words, everyone in the prosecutor’s office nodded very firmly.
Someone bold enough to target Prosecutor Ryu, who was called the conscience of the prosecutor’s office!
They had to punish them by any means necessary!
“….”
Prosecutor Ryu was troubled but soon agreed.
If it were just his own matter, he would have firmly refused, but this involved the children’s safety.
“Then, could you please look up the license plate numbers first? There are two suspect vehicles, so we need to check both.”
Prosecutor Ryu said this and wrote down the license plate numbers to hand to Chief Ju.
Chief Ju looked up the license plate numbers with a more determined face than ever before.
“??”
He had 100 question marks floating above his head.
At his puzzled reaction, the others were equally confused.
“What’s wrong, Chief Ju? Is it a vehicle that’s already on the wanted list?”
At the deputy chief prosecutor’s question, Chief Ju shook his head blankly.
“No. One is just an ordinary car…”
“But?”
“One is… well… it says it’s government-owned? But it’s a car I can’t access with my authority…”
“?!?!”
At those words, everyone rushed to Chief Ju’s computer.
Government-owned?
How could such an absurd thing happen?
“Huh?!!? This car?!!?”
Then. Someone seemed to recognize the license plate number and was shocked.
“Prosecutor Ryu!! This is that NIS car!!! The one we cooperated with before!! That, what was it. That… because they ‘organized things so well’… they got the nickname ‘Gardener’…”
“Gasp.”
At those words, everyone covered their mouths.
No way…!
“Prosecutor Ryu, don’t tell me…”
“Don’t tell me this NIS is doing background checks to scout our precious Prosecutor Ryu-“
“Would that be it, you fool!!!”
At one prosecutor’s words, the deputy chief prosecutor shouted loudly.
“Prosecutor Ryu. Don’t you have the contact information of the person we cooperated with? Call them. There must be some circumstances.”
At the deputy chief prosecutor’s words, Prosecutor Ryu nodded.
Fortunately, he had the number!

Meanwhile, inside Juyeong’s car.
“Let’s hold hands and go on a picnic~”
“Let’s go!”
“Under the clear sky with blue wind blowing~”
“Blowing!”
Whether the adults were making a fuss outside or not, the children were singing along to the children’s songs Juyeong was playing.
At first, Yewon had hesitated, thinking ‘…Should I suggest playing Uncle’s songs instead?’
But now she was quite into it and singing the most enthusiastically.
Indeed, regardless of genre, timeless classics always work.
“Wow!! Yewon. You’re good at singing like your uncle! You should be an idol too!”
“…It suits you.”
At Jeongyun’s words, Harin quietly nodded.
But Baek Yun didn’t say anything and only grumbled inwardly.
No way! Yewon is my heart’s idol! If there are more competitors here!
“Hmm. I like acting. Ah! I want to try musicals. I should learn singing from Uncle later.”
“Wow. Can I learn with you too?!!?!”
At Yewon’s words, Jeongyun’s eyes sparkled.
“Yeah. Sure!”
“…Me too…”
When Harin also spoke in a small voice from the side, Yewon nodded.
“Yes. Harin too!”
“Me, me too!”
When Baek Yun also spoke urgently, Yewon tilted her head.
Were they all this interested in singing?
Then.
Ring ring, ding ding.
-You will arrive at your destination soon.
The navigation announced the estimated arrival time.
Juyeong glanced at her watch and nodded.
After parking and visiting the bakery with the kids, the timing would work out perfectly.
“Kids, we’re here. I’ll turn off the music for a moment, okay? It’s windy so zip up your jackets properly~”
“Yes!”
“I’ll leave the gifts behind when we get out~ We don’t want to bump into other customers~”
“Yes yes!”
“Don’t get out first until Older Sister helps you down!”
“Yes yes, teacher!”
“…?”
…Suddenly a career change to teacher?
Juyeong was momentarily flustered but soon came to enjoy her fate.
With such well-behaved little ones, a career change wouldn’t be a problem at all!
Just then.
Bzzzz-
Yewon felt vibration coming from the bag at her feet.
‘What is it?’
Yewon reached out and opened her bag.
Then.
The kids’ phone she had forgotten about was continuously vibrating as if asking to be taken along.
‘…?’
What is it, really?
Yewon furrowed her brow but obediently put the phone in her pocket.
* * *
“…What? Why a bakery?”
Meanwhile, Taeyoung quietly followed the car ahead with a voice full of doubt from inside his car.
Are they planning to buy bread with the kids or something.
‘Well, they are kids after all.’
Fortunately, the destination was a bakery that Taeyoung also knew.
‘There aren’t many people here either… this will actually make things easier.’
While the kids were choosing bread, he could briefly approach only Yewon and lure her to the car.
As things seemed to be going easier than expected, a smile appeared on Taeyoung’s face.
Taeyoung continued to watch Juyeong’s car.
Then he saw Juyeong taking four excited children into the bakery.
Taeyoung waited for a moment, then parked his car a little distance from Juyeong’s car and entered the bakery.
* * *
…And there were two people who followed Taeyoung into the bakery.
The two people followed the four without making a sound so as not to be noticed by the twins.
This level of stealth was nothing to these two people.
“Well I’ll be damned, how interesting. The daughter of someone who really worked with my husband is there with our kids? And that guy with decent skills who was tailing us is on our side?”
Ha Manager whispered to the ‘Gardener’.
“Yeah. That’s right. It’ll take some time for them to get here, so they asked us to keep an eye on the kids in the meantime.”
“Ah. What’s with that scrawny guy anyway. I could handle him with just a finger.”
At Ha Manager’s words, the Gardener didn’t bother asking ‘handle what exactly?’
Because she was thinking the same thing!
“But it would be totally amazing if a prosecutor comes personally. That’s really rare. But is he a decent person? Does he do good work?”
“Mm. He’s a prosecutor from Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office Public Investigation Department 1.”
At the Gardener’s words, Ha Manager fell silent for a moment.
That was a place Ha Manager knew about too.
“…Isn’t that place like… the promotion escalator? That place is totally… scary… they say it’s hell…. Once you go in for crimes, you can’t get out….”
“Yeah. I’ve collaborated with them once before.”
The Gardener answered calmly.
“That makes sense. You would have worked with them before. Mm. If he’s from a place like that, there’s no need to worry.”
Ha Manager said that and clicked his tongue as if disappointed.
“Tsk. Just had to have a prosecutor involved….”
“Mm?”
“If only the prosecutor wasn’t involved, we could handle this quietly and swiftly….”
“….”
The Gardener didn’t bother asking what ‘swiftly’ meant.
Instead, she looked at Taeyoung standing in the corner of the bakery.
Taeyoung had his hat pulled down low and his face covered with a mask. His appearance was definitely less maintained than when he was active, so no one would ever imagine he was former GLEET member Taeyoung.
The Gardener quietly shook her head.
That lucky bastard…. Thanks to the prosecutor, he’ll even save his life….
