Chapter 29

Half an hour later, the other members of Jin Yunho's team arrived one after another.

The first to arrive was another investigator, Yoon Kukhong.

According to the records, he was only 45 years old, but he looked like he was 50 or 60.

His face was very aged, with large bags under his eyes and prominent wrinkles at the corners. His medium-length, curly hair was messy, covering his head, and he looked very listless, lacking any vitality.

Seeing Yoon Kukhong's appearance, Jin Yunho was very surprised.

Although Yoon Kukhong looked old in the photos, he still seemed quite spirited. However, in person, he looked even older and less energetic.

Jin Yunho began to doubt whether such an old man could still handle cases and how much of his former skills he still possessed.

Jin Yunho's first impression of Yoon Kukhong was not good, and it got even worse after Yoon Kukhong spoke.

When Yoon Kukhong spoke, he hunched his body and had a particularly lecherous smile on his face. He would bow slightly after each sentence to show respect, a typical example of a workplace sycophant.

Jin Yunho did not like Yoon Kukhong's demeanor, but since he had chosen him, he had no room for regret and could only observe further.

The second to arrive was the clerk, Song Ji-eun, who gave Jin Yunho a much better first impression.

Song Ji-eun, 28 years old, a clerk, had a round face, a mushroom-cut short hair that went past her ears, and wore large black glasses. She was dressed in a black women's suit, looking very steady and composed.

Song Ji-eun's job was to record and organize documents, and her steady personality suited this work well.

Jin Yunho briefly conversed with Song Ji-eun and found that she always had a faint smile on her face, making her very approachable.

Could Qin Yijiao's intelligence be wrong? How could a woman like Song Ji-eun be an 'ice queen'?

Jin Yunho was a bit puzzled.

Before he could delve deeper, the last person arrived.

Lee Hye-na, 25 years old, had just graduated from university and entered the office through connections as a secretary. She had long curly hair, a slim face, sensually full lips, a fiery figure, and was over 165 cm tall with a full chest and a round, firm buttocks.

Lee Hye-na's face could be rated 7 out of 10, and her figure 9 out of 10, making her a true beauty.

Her attire was not as conservative as Lee Eun-ji's; instead, she was dressed flamboyantly, like a big butterfly.

She wore 10 cm high heels, flesh-colored stockings, a red mini skirt, and a blue shirt with the collar open, revealing a glimpse of her ample chest.

Lee Hye-na was beautiful and knew how to dress well, making her a very pleasant sight as a secretary.

However, Jin Yunho felt something was off. In such a serious work environment in the prosecution system, Lee Hye-na's attire seemed inappropriate.

But since it was their first meeting, Jin Yunho did not say much. Perhaps she wanted to make a good impression before officially starting work.

After the formal introduction, the five of them introduced themselves, and Jin Yunho's team was officially formed.

They then began to organize their personal desks and clean the office.

As the prosecutor and leader of the team, Jin Yunho had many privileges, such as not having to worry about the office cleaning, as others vied to do it.

Yoon Kukhong, despite his aged appearance, was particularly outstanding. He was very skilled at sweeping, mopping, wiping tables, and cleaning windows, working efficiently and thoroughly.

Cleaning was actually the secretary's job.

Lee Hye-na's attire made it inconvenient for her to do these tasks. Seeing Yoon Kukhong's enthusiastic help, she was very happy, often wiping his sweat and fetching water for him, being very attentive.

"Thank you so much, Investigator Yoon Kukhong. If I had to clean all this by myself, I don't know when I would finish," Lee Hye-na said in a sweet but coquettish voice.

Yoon Kukhong grinned widely and replied, "Hehe, no problem. It would be a waste to have such a beautiful lady do such rough work. I'll do it."

Seeing that the cleaning was almost done, he put down the cloth, walked over to Jin Yunho, and poured him a glass of water, bowing slightly and asking, "Hehe... Prosecutor Jin, it's lunchtime. Would you like to eat here or go out?"

It was Jin Yunho's first day as a prosecutor, and he knew nothing about the procedures, so he asked, "Investigator Yoon, I just started working and am not familiar with the procedures. Could you tell me how other prosecution teams usually handle lunch?"

Jin Yunho spoke politely, but Yoon Kukhong did not dare to be disrespectful and remained courteous.

"Usually, the prosecutor takes the subordinates out to eat. Eating out not only provides better food and a better environment but also helps build camaraderie."

"Alright, let's go out for lunch. I'll treat everyone, and you can choose the place," Jin Yunho said, biting his lip, rarely taking the initiative to treat others.

There was no choice; since he was in the workplace, he had to follow the rules. On the first day, the leader should show some courtesy to the subordinates.

However, Yoon Kukhong shook his head and said with a smile, "How could I let you pay? If we go out, we can use the activity fund. Anyway, the monthly activity fund is never fully used, and it will be spent eventually."

Each prosecution team received a monthly activity fund, equivalent to the total basic salary of all members.

Jin Yunho's monthly basic salary was 3 million won, and the others were slightly lower, but the total of the five basic salaries was 10 million won. Therefore, their team's monthly activity fund was 10 million won, a form of indirect compensation.

Yoon Kukhong knew Jin Yunho was not familiar with these internal benefits, so he explained and added, "The activity fund is managed by Secretary Lee Hye-na, and the usage is recorded by Clerk Song Ji-eun."

Jin Yunho nodded. In essence, one was the cashier, and the other was the accountant, jointly managing the team's petty cash.

After settling the lunch arrangements, Yoon Kukhong took Lee Hye-na to book the restaurant.

Unfortunately, except for Yoon Kukhong, the rest of Jin Yunho's team were new and not familiar with the situation, so they had to rely on him for everything.

This also showed the correctness of Jin Yunho's decision. Although Yoon Kukhong looked bad, was lecherous, and liked to flatter, he was very familiar with the prosecution system and could be called a know-it-all. Having such a person would help Jin Yunho and the others integrate into the work faster.

Yoon Kukhong, with his rich experience, chose a restaurant with a good environment, delicious food, and reasonable prices, making it a very good deal.

During lunch, Jin Yunho found that it was indeed a good opportunity for mutual communication and understanding.

Through observation, Jin Yunho discovered:

Yoon Kukhong was extremely diligent, not only being very attentive to him as the leader but also very polite to the others. Despite Clerk Song Ji-eun and Secretary Lee Hye-na being junior to him and much younger, he showed no arrogance or seniority, treating the two women very politely.

In short, Yoon Kukhong was very smooth in his dealings, leaving no room for criticism.

However, Song Ji-eun, who had initially given Jin Yunho the impression of being approachable, surprised him.

Song Ji-eun always had a faint smile and spoke politely to everyone. However, she never used long sentences, and it was rare for her to use more than five words in a sentence.

She never initiated conversations with others and only gave very simple responses when asked: "Hehe," "Okay," "I know," and so on.

Song Ji-eun taught Jin Yunho what it meant to be a 'smiling ice queen.'

The other woman, Lee Hye-na, also behaved abnormally.

She was very picky about her food, to the point of being shocking.

During lunch, she only ate vegetables and fruits, avoiding all greasy and high-calorie foods, claiming it was to maintain her figure.

Jin Yunho was puzzled. How could she have such a figure eating such light food?

Jin Yunho already had a silly Shin Dong-hae, and now he had an unrespectable Yoon Kukhong, an 'ice queen' Song Ji-eun, and a very vain Lee Hye-na.

None of his four subordinates were normal, and Jin Yunho felt a lot of pressure. It would be a long and arduous task to bring this team together!

After lunch, Shin Dong-hae, Yoon Kukhong, Song Ji-eun, and Lee Hye-na went to the personnel department to complete their onboarding procedures, while Jin Yunho, who had already completed his, had nothing to do in the afternoon.

With nothing to do, he decided to find something to do.

His ears had been bothering him for a while, and they were buzzing again after being startled by Zheng Daqin and Jin Yunxi's screams the previous day.

Taking advantage of the free afternoon, he took leave from Chief Prosecutor Luo Wenshan and went to the hospital for a check-up, so he wouldn't have to worry about it later when he was busy with work.
