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

Chapter 154 Negotiating with the murderer to buy time!

“Yoon Young-hwa, this is Prosecutor Lee from the Seoul District Prosecutors’ Office. He wants to speak with the murderer in person.”

Zhang Jingrong handed the phone to Yin Yinghua, who had changed into a suit, applied hair wax, and returned to his former status as a top news anchor, ready to make a big splash.

The latter looked confused.

Didn't he repeatedly emphasize that this matter must be kept secret?

The live stream was about to start, but even the prosecutor knew about it. What was the point of him doing the live stream then?

"Don't look at me like that. I didn't leak it. I don't know why this Prosecutor Li knows about this. But you should be careful. This Prosecutor Li has a fiery temper and a very tough hand. He even dares to investigate presidential candidates and chaebol chairmen. Don't go against him," Zhang Jingrong warned.

Yin Yinghua immediately understood who Zhang Jingrong was referring to.

It was none other than Lee Seung-hwan, the chief prosecutor of the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office's Criminal Division 3, who was known for his fearlessness in the face of powerful figures!

He carefully took the phone. "Hello? Is this Prosecutor Lee? This is Yoon Young-hwa, a host from SNC TV. You..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Chenghuan interrupted him. "I don't care who you are, now point your phone into the microphone and connect the killer's call. I want to talk to him."

“Remember this: I and a group of survivors are currently trapped on the Mapo Bridge. If you dare to provoke the killer and put us in danger again, someone will definitely not let you off the hook, understand?”

Lee Seung-hwan bluntly told Yoon Young-hwa that he was on the broken section of Mapo Bridge in the middle, and that he had already informed his chief of staff about this beforehand.

If he dies, his chief of staff will avenge him and pursue criminal charges against Yin Yinghua and Zhang Jingrong.

At that time, everyone, including Zhang Jingrong and Yin Yinghua, will be locked up for life!

Yin Yinghua dared not question this in the slightest.

Because he knew that this Prosecutor Li definitely had the ability.

So he obediently followed Li Chenghuan's instructions and answered the murderer's phone call.

Soon, the killer's voice came through the broadcast equipment in the studio: "Anchor Yin, have you considered the conditions I mentioned?"

"Is it so difficult to get the president to come to your TV studio and apologize to me in person?"

Soon, the murderer heard a completely unfamiliar voice reply to him: "I can promise you that the president will apologize, including compensation for the workers who died, and holding the responsible officials accountable for their inaction and failure to provide assistance. I can do all of that for you."

I heard this unfamiliar voice.

The murderer was also taken aback for a moment, then asked, "And who are you? Why should I believe you?"

Lee Seung-hwan suppressed his anger and said coldly, "I am Lee Seung-hwan, the chief prosecutor of the Third Criminal Division of the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office. If you have seen the recent big news in South Korea, you should know what kind of person I am."

"Furthermore, and most importantly, I'm currently on the Mapo Bridge that you blew up. You almost killed me. Now do you understand why I agreed to your request?"

"I'm trying to save myself!"

The murderer was even more surprised after hearing Lee Seung-hwan's words. He never expected that he would leave a well-known prosecutor behind on the Mapo Bridge.

He had heard of the prosecutor, Lee Seung-hwan, who was known for his fearless attitude towards powerful figures.

So when he heard Lee Seung-hwan introduce himself, he immediately felt relieved and changed to an excited tone, saying, "Prosecutor Lee, right? I can trust you. As long as you can agree to the conditions you just mentioned, I will not detonate the remaining explosives on the Mapo Bridge and will let you live."

"But you must keep your promise to me, because I have recorded your words. If you fail to do so, or if you lie to me, then many more people will pay the price for your lies."

"Because I've planted more than one explosive device in this city!"

As soon as these words came out.

The staff inside and outside the studio, including Yin Yinghua and Deputy Director Zhang Jingrong, couldn't help but gasp!

Asiba!

That damn madman!

He even buried explosives in other places!

Is this going to turn the entire city of Seoul into a living hell?

Lee Seung-hwan knew the murderer was exaggerating; the only places he had actually buried explosives were the SNC television station building and the new building under construction next door.

But if he actually detonates it, the collapse of the two skyscrapers would indeed kill countless people.

Therefore, Lee Seung-hwan assured him in a calm and composed tone: "I always keep my word. I will definitely make the president apologize in person and seek justice for your family. Now you need to give me some time to let the rescue department come and rescue the survivors on the bridge."

The murderer said, "Fine, I can give you time, but only one hour. If you're still not saved after one hour, then it means these government rescue departments are all a bunch of useless idiots!"

"And I will not hesitate to detonate the remaining explosives, so that you will all sink into the Han River because of the incompetence and delays of the rescue department!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

After hearing the killer's threatening words, Li Chenghuan's face turned extremely gloomy, and he hung up the phone.

To expect him to entrust his life and fortune to the rescue department is simply a joke. Others may not know the inefficiency of South Korea's idiotic rescue departments, but does he not know it?

In a previous life, a shipwreck occurred in South Korea.

After the accident, the captain first forbade the passengers from saving themselves, and then he was the first to abandon ship and escape!

The coast guard only dispatched a small patrol boat and a few officers, and also blocked the sea area, preventing nearby merchant ships and fishing boats from getting close to the rescue!

The incident occurred only 23 nautical miles from the shore, but it took 2 hours and 40 minutes to reach the scene!

Nine hours after the incident, rescuers began entering the cabins to search for survivors, by which time the vast majority of the victims had already sunk to the bottom of the sea!

Even more outrageous is that they themselves were unable to salvage the sunken ship afterward and could only rely on neighboring China for help. Not only did China enthusiastically help by salvaging the ship at a loss, but afterwards they were also subjected to various slanders, curses, and rumors by those damned South Koreans...

The culprit who caused all of this, the captain of that ship, killed hundreds of people, but was only sentenced to seven years in prison!

Such a magical reality can occur.

Therefore, Lee Seung-hwan had no hope for the South Korean Coast Guard and rescue services; he had to save himself!

Now, he has successfully subdued the murderer, buying an hour for rescue. During this time, he not only has to save himself, but also the surviving people on the broken bridge.

Very tight schedule.

He pinned his only hope on Li Zicheng.

If Li Zicheng cannot arrive with his men in time, then he will have no choice but to abandon them and escape on his own!

As time passes by.

As expected, the Coast Guard was late in showing up, but officers from the nearest police station on land did arrive.

However, they had no rescue equipment with them and could only stand helplessly by the broken bridge.

As more and more people gathered on the shore.

A large number of reporters also rushed to the scene, and the accompanying film crew set up their cameras to broadcast live, focusing their lenses on the broken bridge that stood alone in the middle of the Han River.

Because their cameras are high-end equipment, they not only capture clear images but also have telephoto capabilities, allowing them to clearly capture the figures and even facial expressions of the survivors on the broken bridge even from hundreds of meters away.

Among these survivors, one figure stood out from the crowd.

Soon someone recognized the figure.

Screams erupted from the crowd.

"My God! That man looks like Prosecutor Li!"

"What? You mean that Seoul District Prosecutor Lee Seung-hwan was also on the broken bridge?"
