extradition treaty.
It is a promise to ask the country to arrest and extradite the criminal if the suspect flees abroad.
In 1991, Australia was the first country to sign this treaty with Korea.
“Fuck, let’s try this.”
I grinded my teeth while looking at the extradition request.
The charge is embezzlement of public funds from the Korean Horse Society.
In the past, the history of intercepting and reselling racehorses at the horse market was considered an accomplice.
“CEO, you just have to reject it. There is no direct connection with embezzlement, and there are no legal problems based on the transaction history at the time. Since it happened in Australia, there are data from the IRS and there are many ways to respond.”
I nodded at Lucy’s words.
“I know, if you want to avoid it, you can dodge it. But the important thing is that it’s starting to target me. This is just the beginning.”
Unless Jang Min-soo is carrying a gun, he has to go and detonate the bomb himself.
That way there won’t be any more regrets.
“Edward, are you going to Korea? He’s a lame duck, but he’s the president of a country. It’s dangerous.”
Jackie grabbed my arm and dried it.
“You never know what will happen in the future if you stay idle. If you see something like this, you are a person who will take revenge after your tenure is over.”
“It’s still too dangerous.”
“It’s okay, because I’ve already prepared.”
Finally, you just have to peel the skin off.
I turned to Henry.
“Henry, please take care of me for me.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll respond without any problems.”
“Lucy stays here and helps Henry.”
At that, Jackie spoke again.
“Are you going alone? I’m going to the country with you.”
“How am I going with Jackie. I don’t want to show my bad side even for a moment.”
“……”
“Trust me and wait here. And I’m not going alone. I have reliable friends over there.”
I pointed at Yoohyeon with my finger.
and said with a smile.
“As Jackie knows, there are many helpers in Korea. There will be no problem.”
“Wow, okay. Be careful, please.”
I hugged Jackie and patted her on the back.
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”

The Australian Ministry of Justice notified the Korean Embassy of its refusal to extradite the criminal.
However, I expressed my intention to voluntarily enter the country and take part in the witness investigation.
The answer returned is yes.
Hak-Jun Jang was trying to make me step on Korean soil somehow.
“I don’t know how many years it has been, right?”
Yoohyeon grinned at my question.
“I never thought it would come back like this.”
“Why? Isn’t this enough of a return of gold? Hahaha.”
I said ironically, banging on the armrest of the seat.
We, who came to Australia on a flight via Kensay Pacific, are going back on a private plane.
Also to face the president.
“That’s right. When I first met the CEO at the inham factory, I couldn’t have imagined that it would go back this way.”
“When we arrive, reporters will run like dogs and go to the news…”
I took a can of beer from the flight attendant and took a sip.
“Kuh, that’s good. You can’t drink when you’re being investigated as a reference, right?”
“Perhaps it will.”
“After I go in, you’ll have a tail. Be careful.”
“Don’t worry, because of the CEO, we have a better understanding of the following.”
“Yeah, I’ll trust you.”
He looked outside while chewing the almonds served as snacks.
As always, the sky was blue and the clouds were wide.

– Click, click.
The sound of the camera shutters and flashes pouring non-stop.
Reporters were waiting at the arrival hall to find out how.
“Are you Jin Yu-seong?”
“How are you feeling now?”
“What do you think about the robbery of public money?”
“What is the basis for the 20 million dollar sale of racing horses?
That was then.
Passing through the reporters, a person wearing a prosecutor’s badge and a detective who appeared to be accompanying them appeared.
“This is Prosecutor Han Dong-hoon of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office. Are you Jin Yu-seong?”
“yes.”
“I will accompany you to the prosecutor’s office.”
“Hmm, I’m not a suspect, but a reference person, but it looks like they’re coming to meet me at the airport. It’s a little different from the movie.”
“……”
“Ah, we’re talking about movies. Movies. It’s my first time to appear. Come on, take the lead, I’m going to die from dazzling because I’m going to stay here forever.”
I pulled out my sunglasses from my pocket and gestured to open the way.
Han Dong-hoon narrowed his eyebrows and stared, then bit the reporters and walked ahead.
“Really, Inspector.”
Donghoon Han turned his head slightly at my call.
“What?”
“I’m going out, can’t we eat some rice first?”
There is a growl in the reporters at my words.
Were you so clever?
“Fuu, I’ll go to the prosecutor’s office and order it, so let’s go.”
“Ah! I saw it in a movie. I heard that the soup eaten there is so delicious. Is pork soup possible?”
“Yes, yes. Pork soup is also available, so let’s go quietly.”
“Gyeongsang-do style, please. Seasoned jeongguji is a must, and dadaegi and salted shrimp…”
As people giggle and laugh, Dong-Hoon Han stares at him in annoyance.
“Mr. Jin Yu-seong!”
“yes?”
“I’m not going to play right now.”
“I know, I’m going to investigate the witnesses. But I’m just trying to make a living by eating everything, but it’s a bit embarrassing that you’re bruising with what you eat.”
“Jin Yu-seong, this is Korea.”
“……?”
“It doesn’t matter where you are in Australia as long as you’re in Korea, okay?”
I replied with a grin.
“Aha, do you, prosecutor, don’t like pork soup?”
“……”
“Actually, I’ve lived in Seoul, so I know it, but I didn’t like the taste of the pork soup here.
“Uh-huh, stop testing your patience and let’s go fast.”
“It takes patience to properly brew the broth, but you don’t know what.”
“……!”
“Ah, we’re talking about pork soup.”
Dong-Hoon Han opened his axe’s eyes and stared at him, then took the lead again and walked.

Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office.
There is a table and two chairs in the enclosed space.
The lighting was not very bright, just to create a sense of pressure.
I ended up sitting there alone.
‘Let’s see…’
Looking through the wall, I saw Dong-Hoon Han and a middle-aged man looking at me and talking.
It looks like a normal wall, but it looks like it has been specially treated so that you can see me from the other side.
– Prosecutor Han, you know the cup of blood, not the witness? definitely joe.
– All right, boss.
-Good job, because the Chief Prosecutor is taking care of this. You and I are on our way to success.
– I will make sure to open my mouth. Don’t worry.
– Don’t touch your body. Since the GL group has a lawyer, it will be noisy if scratched.
– Just by looking at it, I can guess that these guys did a contest. Let’s take a quick stab at it.
After a while, Dong-Hoon Han entered the interrogation room with a lot of weight.
As soon as he entered, he took off his jacket and hung it on a chair.
“Relax. I’m going to finish with just a few statements today.”
To Han Dong-hoon’s words, he smiled and replied with a smile.
“When do you order soup? Mt. Geumgang is also called after meals, so do you eat it?”
“Hey, the little guy has good guts. Huh? Still, it’s because he’s had a big accident in the wild, isn’t it?”
“I’m hungry, so let’s eat first, but I don’t know why people talk about guts.”
“Hey, do you think the rice will pass here?”
“Is there any reason not to go over it? I don’t know the guts, but I’m pretty good at eating.”
“Okay, I’ll make pork soup for you, so don’t be messy and cooperate neatly. Okay?”
Han Dong-hoon called somewhere.
“Yes, Aunt. Bring me a pork soup here. Yes? One can’t? Okay, okay. Then two of the same. I’m a guy, so please take care.”
“I remembered everything. Prosecutor, do you have any sense? Hahaha.”
I gave him a thumbs up after finishing the call.
“Don’t flatter me because I can’t even eat the seeds. Should I check the facts before the soup comes?”
“That’s right.”
“Did you get a working holiday visa for Australia in 2010?”
“yes.”
“At the Gold Coast Horse Market, 132 race horses and one roadster were auctioned off at about 9 billion won.”
“Yep.”
“Where did that money come from?”
“I won 4 billion won at the casino, and 5 billion was guaranteed by an acquaintance.”
“Wait, you won 4 billion in a casino?”
“yes.”
Han Dong-hoon raised the corners of his mouth and asked.
“Does that make sense? What kind of tazza are you?”
“Hahaha, I look at the opponent’s hand a little better.”
“Hey, Jin Yu-seong. Let’s go easily, easily. Who got the money from? It’s Kim Woo-sik, deputy director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, right? I confirmed that that friend was in Australia at that time.”
“It’s true…”
“Speak up, you bastard! What’s the dog’s name for 4 billion?”
I scratched my head and then opened my mouth.
“Do you often go to Deep Sea?”
“What?”
“I mean Mr. Deep in Nonhyeon-dong. You know, I have a business card in my wallet.”
“……!”
“I heard that it’s a high-end bar that only people who know there know, but our prosecutor seems to have a good foot.”
I also went there when receiving bosco hospitality.
Is it a place you must know, yes.
“You bastard, do you dare to investigate behind the Korean prosecutor?”
“I first found out at the airport today that the former prosecutor in charge was Prosecutor Han.”
“……”
“I told you, I see some cards.”
It would be inexplicable.
Those feelings will make it difficult for me to deal with you.
“Huh? Soup is here.”
As soon as I finished my words, there was a knock and a figure who looked like the youngest prosecutor appeared with soup.
Han Dong-hoon’s eyes widened even more.
“Uh, how did you know?”
“Because I’m a soup ghost, it smells. Others think that trivial clues are a big hint for gamblers.”
I grabbed a spoon and prepared to eat.
By the way,
“Oh shit, there’s no tennis ball.”
“Huh, what the hell is that jigsaw?”
“Jung Gu-ji Jung Gu-ji… Oh, was that a dialect? Leek? It’s probably the Leek. It’s been a while since I’ve used Korean, so I’m confused.”
“Just eat whatever you give me, ma’am. Where are you complaining about?”
“I’m sorry.”
“What?”
I finally put down the spoon and ate it up.
“The soup is also garbage flavored with chicken stock. It’s so sad to hear that you are a regular at a soup restaurant that doesn’t have a taste bud like this. You work hard for your country, but eat some delicious food and go around.”
“What kind of bastard do you have…”
I said with a smile to Han Dong-hoon, who was looking at me with absurd eyes.
“Actually, if I handle this job well, my career path will be opened, but then I won’t even look at things like soup, right?”
“······································································!
“But what’s the guy with the red tie standing there doing?”
“What?”
“Can’t you see it from that side? You’ve been standing there looking over there since a while ago.”
I waved my hand to the chief prosecutor and greeted him brightly.
And just in time, another person appeared.
“Huh? Prosecutor Han, won’t you stand up and say hello?”
“What else…”
“Can’t you see? Over there, over there. That person also bows his head to the person who just came in. You look like a high-ranking person, can I not say hello?”
As I pointed to the wall and spoke, Dong-Hoon Han took turns looking at me and the wall and swallowed.
“Huh? I just met the two of you, but did you turn your head scornfully? I think he’s angry, shouldn’t he go quickly?”
“What?”
“He wears gilt-rimmed glasses and his hair is bald, but isn’t he tall?”
“……!”
“The man in the red tie is waving to come over there quickly.”
Han Dong-hoon’s pupils shake, and they move back and forth rapidly from side to side.
“Omma, your face has turned red. Come on. You must have been very angry because you were hot.”
“You, you bastard, I’m going to get some data, so don’t move here. Okay?”
I smiled and nodded my head.
“Yes, go.”
