If I make you a prosecutor, are you going to be the president of South Korea?

"Don't worry, once Prosecutor Xu gets the ledgers, it's the same as our boss getting them. As for Chen Xianbi, our boss said that rather than letting him fall into our hands, we should keep him outside to attract attention while we secretly find the money he's hiding in the country."

"In addition, the boss told us to first take control of Chen Xianbi's wife, Madam Jin. She not only knows the channels through which Chen Xianbi launders money in reality, but also knows the whereabouts of some of the money that has been transferred overseas. As long as we take control of her, we will be the biggest winners this time."

Another masked man recounted this to Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian nodded. Although he was intelligent, he wasn't particularly bright. He couldn't understand the complex power struggles between the bigwigs, but as long as Li Chenghuan could provide the money, that was fine.

They quickly left and headed to the designated location to meet up.

On the other hand, after getting into Liang Dongzhe's car, Chen Xianbi was blindfolded and driven around in circles until he arrived at an incredibly luxurious classical-style villa.

After their identities were verified by the gatekeeper, they were granted permission to enter the villa. At the same time, any mechanical devices, cell phones, recorders, and small gadgets that might cause harm were removed from their bodies.

Chen Xianbi was blindfolded and could not see anything outside, but through his senses he could clearly perceive that the person he was about to meet was either very rich or very powerful, and was a truly important figure in the country!

As they walked, Liang Dongzhe, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped, turned around and said to him, "You wait here, I'll go in and report first."

Although Chen Xianbi couldn't see, he could faintly hear voices coming from the building in front of him.

He didn't say anything, but stood quietly in place, listening to Liang Dongzhe respectfully knock on the door and enter the house.

…………

Inside the reception room of the villa, which is specially used to entertain VIPs.

Several figures were seated there.

It was none other than the three giants of the insiders: Chairman Wu, Representative Zhang, and Lee Kang-hee. However, this time there was one more person: Han Kang-chi, the head of the Strategic Department of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office!

The four men sat in a circle, with a large amount of delicious food and delicacies laid out in front of them. However, they barely touched the food, instead scrutinizing a pale-faced middle-aged man kneeling in the middle.

This person was none other than Choi Byung-sung, the head of the Third Criminal Division of the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office!

Facing the oppressive gazes and auras of the four powerful figures, Choi Byung-sung broke out in a cold sweat. He never imagined that he would one day be invited into the headquarters of this alliance of insiders.

But he dared not refuse, nor could he refuse.

At this moment, his mind was racing, trying to figure out how to resolve this crisis.

Chairman Wu, who held the highest position present, was the first to speak and question him: "Minister Cui, what's going on? I heard that you sided with a certain member of parliament and instigated that prosecutor in your department named Lee Seung-hwan to secretly investigate me and Representative Zhang, trying to take the opportunity to sabotage Representative Zhang's presidential election. Is that true?"

Faced with Chairman Wu's undisguised questioning tone.

Choi Byung-sung's face fell, and he quickly smiled apologetically, "I wouldn't dare, Chairman Wu, you've misunderstood me. As a minister of the Criminal Investigation Department, I, Choi Byung-sung, have always maintained a clean record and never take sides in politics, much less serve any member of Congress or attack our presidential candidate. I think there must be some misunderstanding here."

"As for a certain young prosecutor in my department, perhaps he is too arrogant and does want to launch an investigation into Chairman Wu and Representative Zhang. As the minister, I have no right to interfere. Independent investigation is a power granted to prosecutors by the Constitution. Don't you agree?"

Choi Byung-sung immediately shifted the blame, refusing to admit that he had secretly instigated Lee Seung-hwan's investigation into illegal loans. Even if he really sided with Representative Kim, he couldn't say it in this setting. Anyway, everyone knew what was going on.

Representative Zhang then chimed in with a sneer: "Choi Byung-sung, you're doing a great job leading Criminal Division 3. You have a mere prosecutor under your command, yet you dare to secretly investigate the chairman of a conglomerate and me, a presidential candidate. It seems you're aiming to make a name for yourself and do something big."

"If he really fabricates some fake news and spreads it to slander me, it might actually cause us some trouble. What, as the minister, do you not even know what your subordinates are doing?"

"Or is it that you, as the head of the Criminal Investigation Department, are also involved, trying to bring me down as a presidential candidate, using me as a stepping stone to seek a promotion and become a high-ranking official like Minister Han with a promising future?"

Faced with Representative Zhang's sarcasm and cold tone, Choi Byung-sung's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He bowed again and said humbly, "I dare not. I highly approve of Representative Zhang's character and political beliefs. How could I do such a despicable and shameless thing?"

"It was all Li Chenghuan's own doing. He's a prosecutor with no backing or connections, yet he's got the guts to try and gain the approval and attention of our higher-ups by handling major cases, hoping to get a promotion and become a star prosecutor."

"That bastard is ambitious and despicable! When I get back, I'll teach him a lesson, make him give up this reckless idea, and then make him come and apologize to you both..."

Seeing Cui Bingcheng bent over at almost a 90° angle, looking extremely respectful.

After a moment, Chairman Wu slowly said, "Minister Cui, I personally still have a lot of faith in you. As the minister of such an important position in the criminal department, you should have at least some control. Since this bastard named Li Chenghuan is so arrogant, we should teach him a lesson. What do you say?"

“In my opinion, this ambitious and ignorant young man is not suitable to work in a core prosecutor’s office like the Seoul District Prosecutors Office.”

"It would be better to send him to a local procuratorate branch in the countryside, let him gain some experience for a few years, temper his arrogance, and let him reflect on his actions."

"Once his edge has been worn down, we'll bring him back. Young people need to endure some hardship to grow, don't you think?"

With just one sentence, Representative Zhang is trying to erase all of Lee Seung-hwan's efforts.

Transferring from the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office, South Korea's largest and most central prosecutor's office, to a remote rural branch prosecutor's office is no different from sending him to guard a pond. Without an extraordinary stroke of luck, he is destined never to return to Seoul.

This is the weight of a big shot's words.

A single sentence can easily determine the life or death of those below!

After hearing this, Choi Byung-sung also felt that Chairman Oh was too ruthless. He knew perfectly well who Lee Seung-hwan was investigating this case for.

Even if he, as the minister, had no conscience, he would not betray his subordinate so easily.

Besides, this Chairman Wu summoned me here and then threatened and intimidated me, treating me like a pushover and doing whatever he wanted to me. He really didn't give me any face at all.

He was, after all, a minister. If it weren't for Han Qiangzhi, who was sitting next to him and was also a big shot in their prosecutorial system, he wouldn't have dared to disrespect him.

Otherwise, they would have stormed off long ago.

Just as he looked troubled.

Lee Jiangxi, who had been silent until now, smiled mysteriously and said, "Minister Cui, you're just a small prosecutor, what's there to hesitate about? Our Chairman Wu intends to have you join our alliance, isn't that much better than working for someone like Representative Kim?"

“I know you still have some concerns. After all, you and Chairman Wu had some misunderstandings before. But what kind of person is Chairman Wu? He is a magnanimous man who can forgive and forget. For him, the past is a trivial matter.”

"As long as you're willing to join us, the past will be wiped clean. Now, Congressman Zhang is at a crucial moment, and the presidency is within his grasp. If you become one of us, you'll definitely get a share when it's time to divide the spoils!"

"I forgot to tell you, Minister Han has also reached a cooperation agreement with us and is standing with us. You should think about it carefully."

Upon hearing Li Jiangxi's words, Cui Bingcheng looked at Han Qiangzhi again. After seeing Han Qiangzhi nod slightly to him, Cui Bingcheng made up his mind, thinking, "Better to die for a friend than for myself."

They gave up Lee Seung-hwan in exchange for a ticket to the Insider Alliance.

Well worth it!

So he bowed deeply to Chairman Wu and said, "Chairman Wu, Bingcheng is willing to serve the alliance wholeheartedly. Please take good care of me in the future."

Chairman Wu applauded him and said with satisfaction, "Haha, Minister Cui, I like people like you who know how to see the times."

Choi Byung-sung decided to return the favor by revealing the progress of Lee Seung-hwan's investigation and exposing some of his flaws and weaknesses, completely exposing him.

Chairman Wu was very satisfied. He got up and personally poured wine for Cui Bingcheng to build rapport. The group began to toast each other, and the originally serious atmosphere became lively.

Li Chenghuan was unaware that he had been betrayed by his superior and sentenced to death by these people with just a few words.

Shortly after, there was a knock on the door, and Liang Dongzhe walked in and reported to Han Qiangzhi and the group of bigwigs: "Chen Xianbi has been caught, and he is right outside the door."
