Chapter 52

After receiving the 'warning' from Jin Yunxi, Jin Yunhao shook his head with a bitter smile, then turned to Xu Xian and Lin Yuner and said, "There's nothing much to entertain you here. How about we go up to the rooftop for a walk?"

He was well aware of the situation in his own home.

The seating space in the room was limited, let alone for a tour, so he suggested going outside.

Lin Yuner nodded happily. She didn't like the damp smell inside the room. After spending a long time in high-rise buildings, she found such an environment unfamiliar and uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Xu Xian preferred to stay inside. She was very curious about the room filled with books and wanted to explore their secrets.

The two had different opinions; one nodded, and the other seemed more inclined to stay inside.

Finally, Xu Xian came up with a good idea. She leaned over to Lin Yuner's ear and whispered, "Sister Yuner, aren't you very curious about Prosecutor Jin Yunhao? Curious about why he's so good at solving cases?"

"Look, there are so many books over there. They must be about solving cases. We can sneak a peek and see what kind of books he reads."

"Hehe, great idea! If we find the book titles, I'll buy a few when I go back. Then I can become a case-solving expert too." Lin Yuner's big eyes twinkled, thinking Xu Xian's idea was excellent.

She came to visit Jin Yunhao partly to apologize in person and partly because she was very curious about how he could solve cases so quickly. Her curiosity made her want to know why Jin Yunhao was so capable.

At that moment, she fully revealed the mindset of a 19-year-old girl, acting like the real Lin Yuner.

In the past, when interacting with unfamiliar people, she was often very cautious, careful not to offend anyone. But with Jin Yunhao, Lin Yuner didn't have that usual caution.

The reason was that they had a misunderstanding from their first meeting, and more misunderstandings followed. During this time, she had also given Jin Yunhao a few cold looks.

However, Jin Yunhao didn't get angry or act superior because of his position as a prosecutor. This made Lin Yuner feel that Jin Yunhao was a good person, easy-going, and could be a friend.

In this state of mind, she gradually let down her guard, shed her complex thoughts, and showed her true self.

However, as for learning from Jin Yunhao by reading a few books to become a case-solving expert, she was just saying it for fun.

Xu Xian didn't know Lin Yuner's mindset. Seeing Lin Yuner agree to stay inside, she placed her hands on her knees and asked Jin Yunhao somewhat nervously:

"We want to stay inside. Can we look at the books over there?"

"Sure, go ahead." Jin Yunhao smiled, not expecting the two to be interested in the old books.

All those books were study materials for the judicial examination.

Some were old books he had bought from second-hand stores, and some were new books he had purchased. After multiple readings and long-term storage, these books were in poor condition, with some pages even falling out.

These books included the seven major legal codes: the Constitution, Civil Law, Criminal Law, Commercial Law, Administrative Law, Civil Procedure Law, and Criminal Procedure Law. There were also books on cultural history and English, all related to the judicial examination.

After getting Jin Yunhao's permission, the two eagerly flipped through the old, worn-out books. However, after a while, Lin Yuner showed a bit of impatience.

"Why are they all about the judicial examination? No books on solving cases?" Lin Yuner held a book on civil law and asked Jin Yunhao curiously.

"Yep, they are. These books are from my past. The books I've read in recent years are at my apartment at the office." Jin Yunhao explained.

Who knew this would catch Lin Yuner's attention. She put down the book and asked curiously, "Is the prosecutor's apartment very luxurious? Can you take us to see it?"

She was curious about the benefits of being a prosecutor and even more curious about Jin Yunhao's apartment. She believed that the secret to his case-solving skills must be hidden in his apartment. That's why she asked.

"Sure, I can take you there sometime." Jin Yunhao didn't think much of it and nodded in agreement.

"Hehe, it's a deal, no backing out." Lin Yuner extended her delicate hand, wanting to make a pinky promise with Jin Yunhao, playing a child's game.

Reluctantly, Jin Yunhao followed along, but when he touched Lin Yuner's soft fingers, he was momentarily stunned.

After completing the ritual, he casually looked at Xu Xian, who was reading the books seriously, and asked, "Bored?"

"Not at all, it's very interesting. I didn't realize the judicial examination required so many subjects and so much study material." Xu Xian stood by the window, flipping through the books seriously. She turned back and smiled sweetly when she heard Jin Yunhao's question.

Her smile was so graceful that even the lavender on the windowsill seemed to blush and lower its head.

The scene was so beautiful that Jin Yunhao was momentarily lost in thought.

"Oh, right, I heard the judicial examination has been reformed. Do you still need so many materials?" Xu Xian suddenly remembered something and turned to ask, her eyes meeting Jin Yunhao's.

"Ah? Ah! Yes, it has been reformed." Jin Yunhao suddenly came to his senses, scolding himself for being so uncomposed. Adjusting himself, he quickly explained:

"Starting in 2006, South Korea reformed the judicial examination and enacted the 'Law on the Establishment of Law Schools.' This law introduced the 'Law School System.'

Since 2006, the judicial examination is no longer open to the general public. Candidates must have a bachelor's degree, then attend a law school and complete 35 credits to be eligible to take the examination.

Therefore, the judicial examination has become increasingly difficult, and the number of subjects to study has increased. The books in this room are no longer sufficient for preparing for the current judicial examination."

Talking about the judicial examination, Jin Yunhao suddenly felt very fortunate that he passed it before 2006. If it had been a few years later, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to take the exam, let alone become a prosecutor.

Although there were 30,000 candidates competing in the past, at least ordinary people had a chance. However, after the reform, to take the judicial examination, one needs a bachelor's degree and 35 graduate credits, a long and expensive burden that ordinary people cannot bear.

Hearing that the books in the room were no longer sufficient for the current examination, Xu Xian was surprised and widened her eyes. "Oh my! I didn't realize the judicial examination was so difficult and required so much preparation."

Jin Yunhao nodded and smiled. Only those who had experienced the judicial examination could truly understand its challenges.

Xu Xian arched her eyebrows and hesitated to ask, "Um... what was your rank when you passed the judicial examination?"

In South Korea, people often ask about each other's academic achievements, and it's not considered impolite.

The information publicly available about Jin Yunhao only included his details after he became a trainee prosecutor. The Supreme Prosecutors' Office did not disclose any other information.

As for looking up a prosecutor's information online, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office did not allow it, which was a form of protection to prevent retaliation against prosecutors.

That's why Xu Xian asked.

Jin Yunhao smiled calmly and replied, "First place in the judicial examination that year."

"Oh... my!" Xu Xian covered her mouth and whispered, "So impressive!"

She admired people who were academically excellent and knowledgeable. Hearing that Jin Yunhao had ranked first in the 'Korean First Exam,' she was extremely impressed.

"Wow!!" Lin Yuner also joined in the surprise, but her reaction was much more exaggerated, her mouth wide open enough to fit a large goose egg.

Jin Yunhao moistened his dry lips and said modestly, "It's all in the past, nothing to be surprised about. I'm still living here, and I'm just like any other prosecutor. If I make a mistake, I have to face the consequences."

Although the shooting incident was over, and he had been reinstated, after the ups and downs, it was unrealistic to say he had no resentment.

Jin Yunhao took this opportunity to vent a little, expressing his dissatisfaction with the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.
