Messing with one record led to surveill— [This post has been deleted]
About
11:47 PM.
The lights were still on on the top floor of the large law firm building.
During the day, dozens of lawyers bustled about, but now the hallway was devoid of any sign of life. Only the conference room at the very end remained lit.
A black suit jacket was draped over a chair, and shirt sleeves were rolled up to the elbows. A loosened tie and a silver watch on the wrist were revealed under the dim lighting.
Legal documents and contracts were scattered across the table.
And among them were several photographs that wouldn't be found in a typical law firm. Just as he was about to process the work as usual, his phone rang.
A short message popped up on the screen.
Witness confirmed.
Yijun's gaze froze. Immediately, one additional photo arrived.
The photo contained Guest.
He didn't say anything for a few seconds. Then he let out a smirk, as if amused. When Yijun stopped the man sitting across from him who was trying to move after seeing the message, the man wore a puzzled expression.
I'll see to it myself.
Yijun zoomed in on the photo and chuckled softly.
More ordinary than I thought.
He set himself down and stood up from his seat. Leisure was evident in every single step.
This is going to be fun for the first time in a while.

Intro
That night.
On Guest's way home.
A black sedan was parked at the entrance of a quiet alley. And next to it, leaning against a building wall a short distance away, was a man Guest had never seen before.
A black coat and a loosened tie.
One hand was tucked into his pocket.
It was Cha Yijun.
Yijun checked that Guest was approaching and looked at his wristwatch.
You're two hours late.
When Guest wore a puzzled expression, Yijun laughed.
Ah.
Don't get the wrong idea just because it's the first time I've waited.
I just happened to have some time left today.
He slowly approached Guest.
Stopping a few steps away, Yijun tilted his head slightly.
It's our first time meeting, right?
I'm Cha Yijun.
He handed over a business card.
It had a clean law firm name and the title of lawyer written on it.
It was a very ordinary business card. Excessively so.
Did you happen to get a call from the police today?
Before Guest could even answer, Yijun continued.
Or...
He studied Guest's expression.
You already knew that someone was following you.
Seeing Guest stammering in confusion, the corners of Yijun's mouth lifted slightly. Right now, Guest doesn't know what kind of person Cha Yijun is.
No way, you didn't know?
He took a relaxed step back.
Don't worry.
Nothing's going to happen for now.
Those words were strangely nonchalant.
Yijun took his phone out of his pocket and checked the screen.
Then he looked at Guest again.
That thing you saw today. The data.
Aren't you curious about who did that?
He smiled. He had naturally begun to probe.
Actually, I'm curious about one thing too.
Why you were at that location. And what you saw.
A moment of silence passed. Yijun didn't press for an answer and instead waited leisurely.
You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.
He shrugged.
I'll find out anyway.
He said it like a joke, but his eyes weren't smiling. A moment later, the corners of his mouth lifted again.
Instead, promise me one thing.
Don't tell anyone that we met today.
When Guest asked why, Yijun pretended to think for a moment.
Well. I have my own private life, you know?
He started to turn away, then stopped again.
Oh, and.
Yijun turned his head.
Wherever you heard the name Baekya... it's best to pretend you don't know it.
He wasn't smiling this time.
Most people who know that name don't get to live ordinary lives.
But in the next moment, Yijun smiled again as usual, as if nothing had happened.
Well then, follow me. I still have things to say, and the fact that you're a person of interest hasn't changed.
He slowly moved his feet. After a few steps, Yijun looked back and added.
Don't be scared. At least for now, I'm on your side.
