"Are you Attorney Jung?" ask one of the nurses.

"Yes, right. I'm waiting for the report" I replied.

"This is the report, it's done. As it turns out, Prosecutor Jung was short, yes," the nurse said, giving her report.

"Well, all my family is short" I replied, receiving the report.

I immediately checked the report.

I teleported straight into Attorney Kim's room.

There, I saw a grown man.

"Uakh!! Who you?" manywould be surprised.

"Oh, I'm Attorney Kim. Who are you, huh?" Prosecutor Kim asked back.

"My-my Attorney Jung. Didn't you ask for a leave today?" I'm getting nervous.

"I didn't leave today. Then I went back to the office. Oh yeah, what business, Prosecutor.. Jung?" ask Prosecutor Kim.

"I was told by the chief prosecutor to replace you. So, I can accompany you at the trial today," I replied carelessly.

"Oh, so. Good," said Prosecutor Kim.

"But Attorney Kim. If anyone asks, just answer if I am the prosecutor chosen by you to participate in the trial," I reminded.

"Well, you're like a child" prosecutor Kim replied.

I breathe a sigh of relief.

*And I'm a child, Attorney Kim!!* I said in my heart.

"Let's go to court. You got a car?" ask Prosecutor Kim while tidying up the evidence.

"I don't have a car. Oh yes, this is additional evidence" I replied.

"Then we go together. This trial is very difficult" Prosecutor Kim said as he read the evidence I provided.

He looked surprised when he read it.

"Hey, were you at Samhyook Medical Center?" ask Prosecutor Kim while reading the results.

"Yes" I replied.

"Autopsy and organ transplant simultaneously?" he asked while holding the paper firmly.

"Yes, for the sake of evidence" I replied once again.

"Forced the choice of the head is the best. I'm not sure I'm going to make a decision this good. Moreover, this is a big case" Attorney Kim commented while putting the evidence into a map.

"Well, that's it."

*Hey, I'm a kid know!!* I am angry in my heart. I feel like my anger wants me to blow up.

Then we went to court. The streets are very quiet. So we can arrive quickly.

"Alright, let's start the trial" judge Lee said.

I started taking out my notes. Because I've summarized all the evidence and data about witnesses in my notebook.

Prosecutor Kim looked at my note, "Written.. Japan..? Moreover, the writing is like a child."

"Well, I'm Japanese. My writing is cute, isn't it?" answer me and distract me.

"Yes, cute as you do" replied Prosecutor Kim.

Trial begins.

The defendant declared him innocent.

"I'm not the killer! He was drunk that night! I just fixed the wiring in that building!" defendant Bae Dae Young said.

Prosecutor Kim immediately stepped forward to ask Bae Dae Young a few questions. Very dizzying. Really, I don't want to go to trial anymore in my life.

"How do you declare yourself innocent, defendant Bae Dae Young? It's clear, the evidence has also been displayed on the screen" said Prosecutor Kim.

"I am not the killer! All that evidence must be manipulated!" bae Dae Young replied insisting.

"For Kim, you shouldn't accuse him of your own assumptions!" lawyer Kwon defended his client.

"Lawyer Kwon, remember this. This is not an assumption, it is evidence. Look, Prosecutor Jung gave additional evidence an hour ago. Found a stranglehold on the victim's neck, Miss Yoon," Attorney Kim won't lose.

"Surely he manipulated the evidence" replied Lawyer Kwon.

"Well, you don't interfere first, Lawyer Kwon. Prosecutor Kim is interrogating defendant Bae Dae Young" judge Lee said, stopping the fight between the two.

*It's very inconvenient. I got accused of a no-no,* thought I was upset.

Finally, the defendant Bae Dae Young always says he didn't kill her. But I saw clearly on his face. He was hiding something and was terrified.

Bae Dae Young returned to her seat. Prosecutor Kim is back too.

"Hafftt. He's stubborn. Moreover, Lawyer Kwon, he is very smart to argue," complained Attorney Kim while watching Lawyer Kwon who was talking to Judge Lee.

"The defendant only came to fix the wiring in the XXX building. That night, the victim was also drunk after coming home from a party with her friends. For the recording evidence on the smartphone, it must have been planned" explained Lawyer Kwon.

"Well, well, don't want to lose it turns out. Still insist. What if I asked the witness? That 5-year-old kindergarten boy.." I said.

"Hey, Attorney Jung! What are you doing?" prosecutor Kim rebuked in a whisper.

Lawyer Kwon seemed even more confident.

"alright. Your Honor, may I ask some questions of the only witnesses?" ask Kwon's lawyer for permission.

"Izin was given," replied Judge Lee.

"Thank you, your honor," replied Lawyer Kwon while glancing at me.

The screen began to be connected to a camera set up by Attorney Shin. Prosecutor Shin is at the witness's house.

"Hmm. The witness is just Jo Jae Ho. Right, right?" muttered.

"really. Can a child be brought to witness?" ask Prosecutor Kim whispered.

"Of course."

"Jo Jae Ho's witness, what did you see that night?" ask Attorney Kwon.

Jo Jae Ho just hid behind his mother out of fear. Lawyer Kwon repeated his question again. But Jo Jae Ho just hid.

"Your highness, I'm done asking the witness" said Attorney Kwon as he put the mic on the table. He also returned to his desk

"alright. Prosecutor Kim and Prosecutor Jung, anyone want to try asking?" judge Lee asked.

*How is it going? He was a little boy, afraid to speak. The only way.that's him!!* i thought to myself in my heart.

"Alright, one of them no one wants to ask the witness anything" Judge Lee said.

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty!" I said stand up straight away.

I took the mic and advanced to the front of the screen.

"I will ask the witness" I said.

"Please" replied Judge Lee.

"I asked permission to ask unlawfully. Can I?" ask me for permission.

"Izin was given," replied Judge Lee.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

*Truly, must keep all attitude, * lamented in my heart.

I take a breath and breathe it out slowly. I'm starting to calm down a little. I took out all the burdens that were in my body.

I started to put the mic near my mouth.

"Hello, Jae Ho. Do you like grandpa Santa?" ask me kindly. As if his own friend.

Jo Jae Ho started looking at me.

"Are you his friend?" ask Jo Jae Ho.

"Yes, I'm a friend of his. Look, this is Santa's grandpa's uniform, "I answered kindly.

"Hey, what the fuck are you, Attorney Jung?" ask Prosecutor Kim whispered.

"Haha, what's he doing?" lawyer Kwon muttered while holding back a laugh.

"What's he doing? Is he crazy?"

"Is that really the Prosecutor?"

"that's weird."

Everyone was whispering about me.

*Oi, I hear you all!!* I thought I was upset.

"Jae Ho, you're not going to lie to Santa's grandfather and his friends, are you?" ask me kindly.

"Yes" he answered briefly.

I took out a paper with Jae Ho's painting. He drew it for a policeman.

"Jae Ho, did you draw this for the police yesterday?" ask me while showing the picture.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Well, the picture's good, yeah," I praised him.

"Thank you" he replied happily.

"Does Jae Ho remember what this guy said to this brother?" ask me while showing the picture.

"Remember," replied Jo Jae Ho still afraid.

I glanced at Lawyer Kwon and Bae Dae Young. They look worried. Kwon's lawyer seemed to be trying to find a way out.

However, once this child speaks according to the recording, then there is no way.

I just don't know about the tape, because it's been given ahead of time than any other evidence.

"Jae Ho, if you answer your questions honestly, you will bring a gift for you" I said.

"really?" ask Jo Jae Ho.

"Of course" I answered.

"Well, I'll be honest!" jo Jae Ho said.

"Jae Ho, what did this uncle say to this brother?" I asked while pointing at Bae Dae Young's picture.

"The uncle said that he dared to give a bad review to the uncle" replied Jo Jae Ho.

I immediately pointed to one of the officers who arranged about the recording of his voice.

The officer played the tape.

"Brengsw! How dare you give me a bad review of my performance! Look at you as a proud artist of Seoul, how brave of you!"

That's what I heard from the tape.

"Woah, same!"

"Great, how can it be?"

"Make it serious?"

Everyone started to comment to each other in whispers.

"Then, what's this brother saying, Jae Ho?" my many.

"The brother replied, it's because the uncle's work is bad. So, the big brother gave one star," replied Jo Jae Ho.

Again, I pointed to the officer.

He played the tape.

"That's all because your performance was so bad! Fix the power cord for up to an hour! Very slow, everything waited a very long time. So I give it one star!"

That's what I heard from the recording.

"Hey, is this serious?"

"Truly the same!"

"Who's Attorney Jung?"

"Crazy!"

Everyone started to get excited.

"Well, here it is. It's time for evidence of intentional homicide" muttered Prosecutor Kim.

"Let's see who will win, Lawyer Kwon," I said.
