Chapter 80 - He was just being nosy (1/2)

Im Jihoon is looking at the video from Do Sejin's house to make a profile of the killer. It's 11 of the night. His wife and kids are already asleep. He lits the cigarette and goes out to the balcony to take a smoke. He stares at the distance. His wife doesn't like him smoking, but he needs to smoke on nights like this.

His phone rings suddenly. He furrows his brow. Who could it be? The number is new. He has only given his personal number to a few people only.

[Prosecutor Im?]

Do Sejin.

Im Jihoon recognizes the voice right away. ”Mr. Do, did something happen? It's quite late.”

[I found something recently. I need to talk to you.]

”Do you want to meet me now?” Im Jihoon asks him with a smile.

[I am driving right now. I will arrive back in the city within an hour. If you are fine with meeting me now...]

”Can you come to WS apartments? I live here. We will talk at my house.”

[We can meet tomorrow morning. I don't want to intrude.]

”No, it's okay. I can't sleep anyway.”

He often suffers from insomnia.

[Okay, I - Tell him that I am also coming - No, I will drop you at home first. - Prosecutor Im, this is Ahn Hana. I hope that you have coffee at your home.]

The call is hanged up. Im Jihoon looks at the phone blankly. Lawyer Ahn is also coming. Does he has coffee? He needs to check.

Im Jihoon doesn't want his wife to wake up. So, he goes out and waits for them near the entrance. After around one and a half hour, he sees the car coming. Do Sejin and Ahn Hana step out of the car.

”You two don't look good.” He looks at them with concern in his dark eyes. ”Did you fight?”

”He was just being nosy,” Ahn Hana murmurs and looks away.

He gives him the photos. ”Someone like him must have been obsessed with her since her 100th-day birthday.”

Im Jihoon's glances at the child's scribbles behind one of the picture. ”Let's discuss this at my home.”

Do Sejin hesitates. ”Will your family be okay?”

”They will be fine. Come with me.” Im Jihoon grins at Ahn Hana. ”Lawyer Ahn, I do have coffee. I also know how to make it.”

At his apartment, he signals them to become quiet. He guides them to the study room and closes the door. He puts down the pictures on the table and says, ”I will come back in a while. Take some rest.”

Ahn Hana and Do Sejin sit on the chair. Ahn Hana is gazing at the bookshelf, reading the names of the books. Do Sejin looks around. The study room is a mess. There are piles of papers and thick books of codes. On the bookshelf, there are books only related to law and crimes. As he has expected, this is prosecutor Im's study room.
