Lee Seung-hwan introduced himself, claiming to be from the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office, and said he wanted to question Seok Dong-chul's family. This immediately made the faces of the various gang leaders in the funeral hall look somewhat unnatural.

As gang leaders, they are not afraid of the police.

However, one cannot be unafraid of prosecutors.

Because prosecutors are the ones who can put them in court or even in prison.

Every single one of them present was dirty.

They are all wicked people who have committed numerous evil deeds.

If they didn't have powerful backers and if this matter didn't concern them, they probably would have left on the spot.

Ding Qing looked at the sharp-looking, handsome young prosecutor in his suit, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said nothing. He was a prosecutor, so it was normal for him to be investigating Shi Dongchu's death.

He also suspected that Seok Dong-chul had been murdered.

Although the police had given him some information, saying that the person who killed Shi Dongchu at the beginning was another victim who died with him, that guy was a small-time gangster in Yanji, China, who specialized in smuggling people and killing people for money.

The reason they targeted Seok Dong-chul was because they saw he was very wealthy and wanted to extort money from him. However, during the process, the two of them were taken away together by an out-of-control dump truck...

But Ding Qing didn't believe things were that simple.

Li Chenghuan noticed his gaze and smiled slightly at him, which surprised Ding Qing. Although he was puzzled, he smiled back at Li Chenghuan.

It's best for a prosecutor to avoid offending anyone.

In contrast, there is Li Zhongjiu.

He watched as Lee Seung-hwan walked past him as if no one else was there, heading straight through the mourning hall to look at Seok Dong-chul's widow and child. A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he directly reached out to stop Lee Seung-hwan.

“Prosecutor Li, there’s a time and place for investigations. We’re currently holding a farewell ceremony for Chairman Shi. Please wait until we’ve finished the ceremony before we talk to you.”

Lee Jung-gu was unaware that the prosecutor in front of him was actually a member of the Kinmen Group.

Shi Dongchu never revealed to any of the senior executives within the group that he had a prosecutor as an undercover agent.

After all, the fewer people who know about this, the better.

Lee Seung-hwan was quite surprised to see Lee Jung-gu suddenly stop him. He stopped and looked at Lee Jung-gu, saying expressionlessly, "You are Lee Jung-gu?"

"it's me."

"I heard you're the second-in-command of the Tiger faction within the Kinmen Group, in charge of the group's nightclubs, entertainment venues, and loan sharking business. You're known for your domineering and ruthless behavior, committing all sorts of crimes. You've been involved in serious assaults that resulted in serious injuries and disabilities, and you've also instigated gang members to use violence against competitors. You've even threatened to kill entire families. You've been reported to the police multiple times and summoned by them, but nothing ever came of it." Li Chenghuan started off aggressively.

Li Zhongjiu's expression changed slightly, and he quickly retorted, "Those are all malicious accusations! I'm a legitimate businessman! Prosecutor Li, you can't just listen to the side of those troublemakers!"

Li Chenghuan sneered, "You know in your heart whether you did it or not, and I know even better what kind of company Jinmen Group is. You better behave yourself and don't let me find any evidence against you, otherwise I will definitely eliminate social scum without mercy, understand?"

Lee Seung-hwan's domineering attitude showed no regard for him, the self-important leader of the Tiger faction, and he even reprimanded him in front of a group of gang leaders.

This caused Li Zhongjiu to lose face completely.

I was almost furious.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, but he suppressed his anger and replied with a forced smile, "Don't worry, Prosecutor Li, I will definitely abide by the law and be a good citizen."

"Then get out of here!" Li Chenghuan glared at him.

Li Zhongjiu subconsciously lowered his hand, noticing Ding Qing gloating beside him, and felt extremely aggrieved.

hateful!

I will remember this grudge!

Lee Seung-hwan, you damned bastard!

Li Zhongjiu roared wildly in his heart.

At this moment, Li Chenghuan arrived in front of Shi Dongchu's widow and family members. Leading them was a plump woman dressed in black mourning clothes, who was unexpectedly young.

She looked to be around thirty years old, about 165cm tall, with exceptional looks and temperament. Her hair was piled up high, revealing her delicate oval face, which was both pretty and tinged with sadness. Her fair hand held that of a little girl who was only a few years old.

"Prosecutor, may I ask... what brings you here?"

The woman spoke first.

"What is your surname, madam?" Li Chenghuan looked at the beautiful woman and wondered why that old man Shi Dongchu would go out and spend the night with a mistress when he had such a beautiful wife at home.

Is that mistress prettier than this woman?

"My name is Nana."

"Oh, Mrs. Lin, I'm here to investigate the death of your husband, Mr. Shi Dongchu. May I borrow a... tool to talk?"

"Okay... okay, please follow me."

Nana first handed the child over to an elderly nanny to look after.

Then he led Lee Seung-hwan to the back room.

As soon as Li Chenghuan disappeared from sight, the gang leaders in the mourning hall took their leave and scattered like birds and beasts, fearing that staying there any longer would lead to trouble.

After all, this prosecutor surnamed Li is a bit domineering.

Although they might not be afraid of him, they didn't want to get into trouble.

In an instant, only Ding Qing and Li Zhongjiu and their respective underlings remained on the field.

The two exchanged a glance, and Li Zhongjiu snorted coldly.

He had already offered sacrifices and was inexplicably humiliated by Li Chenghuan, so there was no point in him staying. He simply took his men and left without looking back.

As he passed by the entrance to the mourning hall, he saw Section Chief Jiang Zemin standing there with a mocking expression, and his face became even more unpleasant.

"Xiba!"

"I'll make you laugh sooner or later!"

Watching Li Zhongjiu leave, Li Zicheng and Section Chief Jiang, who had remained silent, exchanged a glance.

After understanding the other person's signal in his eyes, he hesitated for a moment before speaking to Ding Qing in a carefully chosen tone:

"Brother, that guy Li Zhongjiu is eyeing the chairmanship. Once we get back, he will definitely convene the elders for a shareholders' meeting as soon as possible. We should start preparing as soon as possible."

Ding Qing turned to look at Li Zicheng, patted his good friend on the shoulder, and nodded in agreement:

“Li Zhongjiu of Xiba will definitely threaten those elders to vote for him, but there are quite a few elders on our side, so he can’t be the only one in charge.”

"I need a little more time. There's a big business deal to discuss in China. If this deal goes through, the market value of our Kinmen Group will increase by at least 30%. While I'm away in South Korea, brother, you need to keep an eye on Lee Jung-gu and report to me immediately, understand?"

"Don't worry, brother." Li Zicheng nodded slightly. After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the back of the mourning hall and said with some worry, "Brother, could that prosecutor be deliberately using the pretext of questioning to secretly target the Kinmen Group? After all, the chairman had just been investigated by the prosecutor's office before his death."

Ding Qing shook his head: "No matter what his purpose is, we can't panic. When we get back, we need to tell our men to behave themselves and not cause me any trouble."

"clear."

With Ding Qing and the others gone, the entire mourning hall instantly became empty, except for a few of Shi Dongchu's relatives kneeling there and weeping softly, and the room was filled with wreaths.

Meanwhile, behind the funeral hall, Lee Seung-hwan was asking Nana some questions.

"Ahem, Mrs. Lin, do you know who Mr. Shi Dongchu went to see on the night he passed away?"

"Also, has he offended anyone recently, or received any death threats or anything like that?"
