Jin Yunho wants to continue investigating the sex offender case, and there are two main directions for the investigation.

First, analyze the surveillance footage around the crime scene to find useful clues.

Second, investigate the new pair of glasses that appeared last night, and determine if it is related to the case, to see if any useful clues can be found.

However, regardless of which direction he investigates, Jin Yunho encounters difficulties.

Now that he has been suspended, Shin Donghae has also been affected and is on leave. They currently do not have the authority to investigate the surveillance footage, nor the right to ask the police for assistance in finding the person who turned in the glasses.

A skilled housewife cannot cook without rice.

"Boss, wasn't Captain Park at the police station very polite to you yesterday? Why don't we ask him for help?" Shin Donghae scratched his head and suggested.

Jin Yunho sighed and nodded, deciding to treat a dead horse as if it were alive, as there was no other choice.

He is not like Yoon Gukhong, who has many years of work experience and a large network of contacts. Yoon Gukhong can use his connections with the transportation department staff to investigate the surveillance footage at home. However, Jin Yunho does not have such a network of contacts.

The only person he is familiar with is Captain Park Jitae, whom he has interacted with twice.

After finding Park Jitae, the police captain hesitated for a long time.

Logically, Jin Yunho is almost finished, and it is clearly not wise to continue dealing with him. Moreover, helping Jin Yunho privately investigate the surveillance footage is a significant matter. Park Jitae instinctively wanted to refuse.

However, a different voice gradually emerged in his heart.

He is already 35 years old and has been a police officer for over 10 years, barely climbing to the position of captain. But he also knows that he has no influential connections, and if there are no major opportunities in the future, his life will be like this.

He is not willing to just muddle through like this; he also wants to advance further.

He has seen Jin Yunho's investigative skills and admires them.

He has also experienced the powerful backing behind Jin Yunho:

Jin Yunho's 'fight' at the subway station was handled by him, and at the time, it was their bureau chief who personally intervened and instructed him to facilitate things for Jin Yunho. In just a few days, Jin Yunho was promoted from a trainee prosecutor to a third-level prosecutor, which would be impossible without the support of a powerful figure.

Under various misunderstandings, Park Jitae believes that the backing behind Jin Yunho is very strong.

Perhaps Jin Yunho still has hope. By taking the initiative to investigate the case, he is looking for a reason so that the powerful figure behind him can have an excuse to help him out of his current difficult situation.

Yes, it must be so.

After thinking about these things, Park Jitae suddenly became enlightened and made a big decision to help Jin Yunho. Adding flowers to brocade is far less memorable than bringing coal in the snow.

He thought that perhaps Jin Yunho would succeed in turning things around, and as someone who has helped Jin Yunho, he might receive Jin Yunho's gratitude, advancing his career further.

After making up his mind, Park Jitae did not hesitate and immediately copied the surveillance footage for Jin Yunho and found the phone number of the person who turned in the glasses, verifying the person's identity.

Park Jitae's over 10 years of work were not in vain. He did not need any approval procedures to retrieve this information and privately handled it for Jin Yunho.

After obtaining the copy of the surveillance footage and the information about the person who turned in the glasses, Jin Yunho was overjoyed, never expecting that Park Jitae would actually help him and find these two crucial pieces of information.

After thanking Park Jitae, Jin Yunho did not delay and immediately returned to the apartment with Shin Donghae to review the surveillance footage.

A few hours later, Jin Yunho found several instances of the sex offender appearing in the footage and gained a better understanding of the offender's modus operandi.

Jin Yunho put on his coat and instructed Shin Donghae, "Continue reviewing the footage at home and see if you can find anything new. I will go investigate the person who turned in the glasses."

Shin Donghae shook his head, "Boss, I'll go with you. It's not safe for you to investigate alone."

Jin Yunho laughed and scolded, "What's not safe? I'm not a girl, I'm not that fragile. Alright, that's it."

After saying this, Jin Yunho hurriedly left, not giving Shin Donghae a chance to argue further.

Actually, he deliberately sent Shin Donghae away.

Shin Donghae was already taking a big risk by helping with the investigation.

If they were caught, Jin Yunho could take the blame alone and say that Shin Donghae was not involved, as he was the only one who had seen the footage, and there would be no evidence.

However, if they went to investigate together, they would interact with relevant people. If someone reported them, Jin Yunho would not be able to hide Shin Donghae.

He could not involve Shin Donghae any further.

After leaving, Jin Yunho directly drove the unit's car to investigate the person who turned in the glasses.

The person who turned in the glasses is a woman, an employee of a talent agency, currently serving as an assistant manager for Girls' Generation.

After finding this female manager, Jin Yunho learned that she was not the one who actually found the glasses; she merely helped someone else turn them in to the police.

However, when Jin Yunho asked her who found the glasses, she hesitated and was unwilling to reveal the truth.

Although Jin Yunho is not familiar with the entertainment industry, he knows that managers generally serve as secretaries for celebrities. He guessed that the person who found the glasses was likely one of the members of Girls' Generation.

He confidently fabricated a lie:

"Actually, there's no need for you to hide anything from me. I am friends with Girls' Generation's Im Yoonah. She went to the hospital for an ear check-up yesterday, and I was there at the time. I even comforted her and advised her to clean the affected area."

Jin Yunho had met the nine members of Girls' Generation once at a barbecue restaurant, and Shin Donghae had introduced them to him. He had also seen their posters at a music store. After seeing Im Yoonah at the hospital yesterday, he recognized her.

Therefore, he could mention Im Yoonah's name and fabricate the lie that he was her friend.

Hearing that Jin Yunho was a friend of Im Yoonah and that he mentioned her hospital visit, the female manager believed him to some extent.

After hesitating, she revealed the person who found the glasses: "It was Girls' Generation's Sulli!"

It was indeed one of them!

Jin Yunho's eyes lit up.
