The next morning, Ga-On seized a chance to slip into Yo Han's office, his heart pounding with a mix of nervousness and determination. He scanned the room, searching for a suitable spot to discreetly plant the noise device. Just as he was about to make his move, the door swung open, and Yo Han stepped inside.

Caught off guard, Ga-On's heart raced as he quickly formulated a plan. Thinking on his feet, he managed to mask his surprise and approached Yo Han's extensive collection of books.

"Oh, good morning," Ga-On greeted with a forced casualness. "I hope you don't mind, but I was looking for a particular book from your collection."

Yo Han's gaze held a hint of curiosity as he observed Ga-On. "A book? In my collection?"

Ga-On's fingers brushed along the spines of the books, his voice steady despite his nerves. "Yes, you see, I've been meaning to read this particular one for a while now."

Yo Han's lips curled into a faint smile, his eyes glinting with a playful edge. "And which book might that be?"

Ga-On's mind raced as he recalled the title of a random book he had spotted earlier. "Ah, 'The Art of Persuasion.' I've heard it's quite insightful."

Yo Han's eyebrow arched, his gaze lingering on Ga-On. "Is that so?"

Ga-On nodded, feigning nonchalance. "Yes, and I thought your collection might have it."

Without warning, Yo Han closed the distance between them, his hand on Ga-On's shoulder gently but firmly guiding him back against the bookshelf. Ga-On's heart raced as he tried to maintain his composure.

"Do you live alone?" Yo Han's voice was low, his expression inscrutable.

Confused by the unexpected question, Ga-On hesitated before answering, "Yes, I do."

Yo Han's touch was oddly reassuring as he smoothed out the rumpled fabric of Ga-On's shirt. "Living alone can be tough, you know.  if you prefer, there are plenty of books at my home if you ever want to visit."

Ga-On's cheeks warmed at the flirtatious remark, a mixture of surprise and intrigue swirling within him. "Thank you, I'll keep that in mind."

As Ga-On exited Yo Han's office, his heart still raced from the encounter. The playful banter, the undercurrent of flirtation, and the magnetic pull that seemed to draw him closer to Kang Yo Han left him in a state of both anticipation and uncertainty.

During the day, Ga-on started listening to Kang Yo Han's phone talks. He overheard Yo Han telling Minister Cha that the trial would be "by the law." He also talked about seeing a doctor and speaking to a lawyer.

At night, Ga-on followed Yo Han and saw him meeting with Attorney Ko, the lawyer for Chairman Ju. They talked in hushed tones, sharing mysterious plans. Ga-on felt like he was in a movie, watching a hidden world unfold before him.

The meeting was like something from a mystery story, revealing that Yo Han and Attorney Ko had powerful connections. Ga-on was both fascinated and determined to find out more about what was really happening.

Ga-On's frustration was palpable as he watched the scene unfold before him. "But I can't seem to get a solid grasp on his intentions," he muttered to himself, his voice carrying a mix of exasperation and determination. "He's playing his cards too close to the chest."

His eyes remained fixed on the secretive meeting. The air was charged with curiosity and uncertainty, a silent wonderment filling Ga-On's thoughts. He couldn't help but feel like an outsider trying to decode a complex puzzle.

His determination shone through as he considered his options, continuing to speak his thoughts aloud. "Maybe our best bet is to keep a close watch on him during the trial," he mused, his voice a mixture of contemplation and resolve. "We might catch something that'll shed light on his true motives."
