"It's a perfect sniping spot." Clay also walked to the window and looked out, then looked thoughtfully into the bloody and terrifying room, "Something is wrong, guys, there seems to be some contradictions here."

Knowing that he was combining theory with practice, Jack did not answer directly, but looked at Aubrey, wanting to know his thoughts.

"From the way the body was abandoned, it seems that the murderer was an experienced and methodical person. But looking at the crime scene, it is a mess, with blood everywhere, and no signs of cleaning."

As a former top student who had once taken psychology as an elective, Aubrey's progress in psychological profiling was no less than Clay's, and he grasped the key points instantly.

Jack added, "As for the modus operandi, we all know that he used a shopping cart to carry the victim up through the elevator.

Although the security of this building is almost non-existent, it is still very risky. Pretending to help a drunk companion to get the drugged victim into the elevator should be a safer way, unless...

"Unless his physical strength doesn't allow him to do so," Clay continued.

"Or maybe he put the shopping cart in the elevator in advance, but no matter what he did, he was related to the owner of this office, so he had a private direct elevator and the key to this office."

Aubrey snapped his fingers triumphantly.

"It sounds like the truth." Ma Xidao muttered quietly to the side. This weird psychological profiling thing the FBI was talking about was totally different from his straightforward case-handling style.

At this time, the sound of the elevator arriving at the floor was heard in the corridor, followed by the sound of the elevator door opening, and then the respectful greetings of two criminal police officers at the door.

"Prosecutor Jin, you are here."

The strong stench of corpse in the room did not change Prosecutor Kim Junhao's stern face at all. He looked around coldly and finally fell on Ma Xidao.

"Have you notified the technical department of the search team?"

Even Ma Xidao had to bow slightly to show respect to the prosecutor. "I've notified them. They will be here soon."

Prosecutor Jin Junhao's cold gaze fell on the three FBI agents in the room again. He hesitated for a moment, as if he had made up his mind. He walked quickly to Jack, bowed deeply, and then extended his hand.

"I'm very sorry. I was too rude last night. Please forgive me."

Jack was shocked by his Japanese way of apologizing, and quickly stretched out his hand to shake his hand, looking at Jubal and Jiejie who came to the door with him with a puzzled look.

A few minutes later, the scene was handed over to the forensic personnel of the Korean Metropolitan Police Department. The FBI and Ma Xidao left the building together and finally had the opportunity to communicate privately.

"What was wrong with that guy just now?" Jack was puzzled by the prosecutor's rude and respectful attitude.

Jubal smiled, "On the way here, he also apologized to me solemnly just like he did just now. As I said before, Kim Junho may have some kind of overly strong self-esteem, but he is a person who is willing to do things sincerely.

We found the owner's information, Li Jianyu, a South Korean citizen. Didn't you see how Jin Junhao looked when he saw his name pop up in the system? He was almost shaking with excitement. "

"Is there anything special about this Li Jianyu?" Aubrey asked curiously.

"Kim Junho said he had a criminal record and had been extradited by Dubai. Two years ago, he was accused of attacking a prostitute with a box cutter in Dubai, but managed to flee back to South Korea before he was formally arrested."

Jiejie said as she pulled out a document from her bag and handed it to Jack, "This is some information about Li Jianyu that Alice and Hannah just found out."

"No wonder the prosecutor is so excited. This Li Jianyu is the only son of a chaebol." Jack suddenly realized.

"Chaebol's only son? What does that mean?" Clay was puzzled.

The word "Chaebol" was created specifically for Korean chaebols and is itself a direct transliteration from Korean, meaning "a clan with great wealth."

Li Jianyu's father was once a well-known plastic surgeon. Later, he founded a large pharmaceutical company and now has a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars. Although he is not as rich as top chaebols such as Samsung, SK, and LG, he is also a well-known figure in South Korea.

It is not difficult to understand why Prosecutor Kim Jun-ho was so excited. If the only son of a small chaebol had conclusive evidence in his hands, it would be a godsend for his promotion.

You should know that it is extremely difficult and expensive to become a prosecutor in South Korea.

Even if there is a genius with a very high IQ in the family who does well in all exams, the minimum investment would be equivalent to 20% of the total income of a middle-class Korean family for years.

Given the high cost of living in South Korea, this is almost all the savings of this middle-class family after cutting back on their spending. But even so, even with an admission rate of less than 3%, the judicial examination, which was originally open to the whole society, still attracts children from poor families.

After 2007, South Korea "reformed" the judicial examination, closing the door to recruitment from all sectors of society and stipulating that candidates must enter law school and accumulate credits before they can apply for the examination. This was seen as completely cutting off the upward path for the common people.

However, becoming a grassroots prosecutor is just the beginning. What follows is the painful process of gaining experience. From a grassroots prosecutor to a senior prosecutor, one must have at least 10 years of supervisory experience.

The higher you move up the ladder, the longer the experience required, but this is just the most basic requirement. Fame, merit and the support of the chaebol behind the scenes are all indispensable.

In South Korea, the relationship between prosecutors and chaebols can be described as a love-hate relationship. The former are usually regarded as the best marriage partners by the latter, and many famous prosecutors are sons-in-law of large chaebols.

And those small chaebols, especially the domineering second generation like Li Jianyu, are also the most tempting fat meat in the eyes of prosecutors.

Taking on a big chaebol like Samsung is not something a small prosecutor can do, but for an ordinary prosecutor like Kim Jun-ho, bringing down a small chaebol or sending his only son to prison means both merit and fame, and thus embarking on a direct route from the local prosecutor's office to the high prosecutor's office.

"So, because the suspect changed from a foreigner to a Korean, we in the FBI went from being troublemakers to helping him get promoted?"

After Jack's explanation, Clay finally understood, and the others also understood why Kim Junhao's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.

If the suspect in this case is an American, it would be extremely difficult to convict him for some well-known reasons, and Kim Jun-ho, as the organizer of the case, would almost certainly be blamed.

Considering that this case has attracted media attention before, one can imagine what the prosecutor's fate will be in the future. Working at the grassroots level for the rest of his life may be the best outcome.

Now the suspect has become a Korean, and he is the son of a chaebol. Considering that the FBI from the United States came to assist in solving the case, and the three victims came from three countries in Europe and the United States, once the evidence is conclusive, conviction is almost a foregone conclusion.

"It makes me feel inexplicably uncomfortable." Aubrey curled his lips in disdain.

"Or maybe he is indeed an honest prosecutor? He simply wants to bring the criminals to justice." Jack smiled and helped to explain. After all, these were just his private speculations. Some things can only be judged by actions rather than by the heart, and no one is perfect.
