Chapter 198: The Hearing Concludes, and the Parties' Reactions

The current situation is very favorable to Guo Dahai, and everyone is waiting for him to prove his innocence.

I saw that Guo Dahai bowed slightly to Baek Jae-hyun and the others and sat down again, he took the draft document from Jung Hae-chan's hand and said, "I ask the witness Kim Dong-won to attend."

"Allow Kim Dong Won to attend."

The live broadcast camera was given to the door of the conference room, Kim Dongwon tidied up his clothes and walked in, he smiled at Guo Dahai and then sat down on the witness stand, his smile seemed somewhat false in Guo Dahai's opinion.

"Ask the witness to introduce himself briefly."

Guo Dahai also said to Kim Dongwon with a smile.

"Distinguished members of the council, I'm Kim Dong Won."

"Dong Yuan, we're friends, aren't we?"

Guo Dae's first question made Kim Dong-won a little confused, and he replied with a dry smile, "Yes, we are friends."

"Representative Kim was introduced to me by you, so did you know about the fact that Representative Kim brought a woman to drink with us at that time?"

"I didn't know in advance, it was Kim who made his own decisions on his behalf, and he was trying to curry favor with us."

"The first time we met Representative Kim was on January 21st, right?"

"I don't remember exactly when."

"How many times did we meet in Daejeon in January this year?"

"It seems like it's only once."

Kim Dong-won said after recalling for a moment.

"Have you heard from Representative Jin about the matter between me and Li Mouxi?"

Kim Dong-won was silent for a moment, he realized that the situation at this time was favorable to Guo Dahai, so he shook his head and said, "I have never heard Representative Kim mention the matter between you and Li Mouxi."

"We're friends, and with what you know about me, do you think I'll do that?"

Winter Winter ......

Baek Jae-hyun picked up a small wooden hammer and knocked on the table and said, "Councilor Kwok, please don't try to induce witnesses, witnesses, you don't have to answer Councillor Kwok's question."

"I'm sorry."

Guo Dae smiled and apologized to Baek Jae-hyun and others, Kim Dong-won was the only witness he applied for, and the other witnesses he wanted to question basically overlapped with Min Geng-wook, so he only needed to question others when he testified himself.

"Honorable members of the Special Ethics Committee, Chairman Paik, I would like to request President Choi Mi-kyung to attend the interview."

"Allow Choi Mi-kyung to attend."

When she came to the witness stand for the second time, Choi Mi-kyung was a little nervous, because she was afraid that the truth of the incident between Lee Ha-yun and Lee Na-eun would be revealed here.

"President Cui, when I sent my secretary to you to find out about Li Mouxi, what did he say, do you remember?"

"I don't remember exactly."

Guo Dahai picked up two letters from Sun Chenghao's hands and said, "Here are two letters I received at that time, one of them is a letter from several students from Hanba High School, in which they claim that they have been bullied by an artist under President Cui, and they hope that I can help them, and the other is a letter from Li Mouxi's parents, because they are doing business in the constituency I am responsible for, so they chose to ask me for help, and I decided to come forward to help Li Mouxi after receiving these two letters. It's not like others say I have an abnormal relationship with her." ….

Min Gengxu looked at the letter in Guo Dahai's hand, his face was pale, he didn't know in advance that Guo Dahai had received letters from Li Harun's classmates and parents, he thought that as long as Li Herun insisted that she had a relationship with Guo Dahai, then the role of the letter would be insignificant.

"President Choi, can you now recall how my secretary talked to you about this?"

"Yes, at that time, Councillor Guo, your secretary came to me with a letter...... Cui Meijing was thinking about how to settle Li Naen's matter, "Later, after our discussion, we felt that the matter between Li Mouxi and the artists under our club was a misunderstanding, so we reached a settlement."

Guo Dahai understood Cui Meijing's thoughts, and he helped the right person at the right time

Fang said kindly, "That's right, after our investigation, it was indeed a misunderstanding, but what my secretary said at the time was threatening you, President Cui?"

"Councillor Guo, your secretary didn't threaten me."

Cui Meijing shook her head decisively and said.

The next witness for Guo Dahai's questioning was Wu Daguan, who also asked if he had seen the letter brought by his assistant Zuoguan, and Wu Daguan said that Zheng Haican had indeed shown him the letter, and after a brief questioning, he asked Baek Jae-hyun and others to apply for Kim Shin-yan to attend the questioning.

Kim Shin-yan had a calm and fearless expression before, but now it was replaced by a bewildered expression.

"Representative Kim, do you remember when we first met?"

"Yes, in January of this year."

"What time is January?"

"I don't remember exactly."

"I remember it was January 21st, it was very cold, and we had dinner together in the villa, and President Kim Dong-sun was in addition to President Kim Dong-won, right?"

"Yes."

After Guo Dahai's narration, the scene of that day suddenly appeared in Jin Xinyan's mind.

Guo Dahai took a USB flash drive from Zheng Haican's hand, he stood up with the USB flash drive and said, "I don't know what happened that day, before leaving, I asked my secretary to go to the Shilla Hotel to copy a copy of the TV before and after Li Mouxi's stay in the hotel, respected Chairman Bai, I ask to broadcast TV."

"Playback is permitted."

The staff took the TV from Guo Dahai's hand, and then they connected the projector to the laptop and played it.

The monitoring started at 11:17 p.m. on January 21, 2016, and the time when Li Harun and Yin Shuhao entered the hotel was 11:18 p.m.

"From the TV, it can be seen that what Li Mouxi said to Councilor Min just now is true."

After watching the surveillance, Guo Dahai said to everyone.

"Representative Jin, did I personally tell you that I want you to pay an extra fee to Li Harun every month?"

Kim Shin-yan hesitated for a few seconds and then replied, "No."

Guo Dae stopped asking Kim Shin-yan other questions, and instead said to Baek Jae-hyun and others, "Distinguished members of the Special Ethics Committee, Chairman Baek, I have requested to question the last witness, Lee Lee."

"Allowed."

Li Harun sat outside the camera, Guo Dahai looked at her for a few seconds and asked, "Li Mouxi, is the abnormal relationship between you and me the kind of abnormal relationship that Representative Jin said?" ….

"It's not."

"Did we ever do something X?"

"Nope."

"I tried to contact you and ask you to come forward to testify on my behalf, why haven't I been able to contact you?"

"Because I'm afraid."

"What are you afraid of?"

"At that time, it seemed that someone around me was following and watching me, and I was scared, so I didn't dare to contact you."

"Do you know who is stalking you?"

"I don't know, but they seem to have something to do with Representative Kim."

"Why do you say they have a connection with Representative Kim?"

"Because Representative Jin later promised to give me 200 million and let me come out, explaining that there is an abnormal relationship between men and women between me and you."

As soon as Li Herun's words came out, the scene was in an uproar.

"Did Representative Kim really give you 200 million?"

"Yes, Representative Kim promised to give me 100 million before I attended the hearing, and then give me the remaining 100 million later, and the cash check for 100 million was in my bag."

"Honorable members of the Special Ethics Committee, Chairman Bai, I request that Li Mouxi show a cash check for 100 million."

"Allowed."

Lee Ha-yun took out a cash check from her bag, and the staff took the check from her hand to Baek Jae-hyun.

"Whether the cash check for 100 million was given by Jin Xinyan to Li Mouxi still needs to be verified."

Baek Jae-hyun said after reading the cash check.

"Yes, I don't have any other questions."

After Baek Jae-hyun discussed with the other members of the Ethics Special Committee for a while, he came out and announced, "At 7 o'clock tonight, we will announce the results of the hearing, so please be patient."

"Yes."

"At 4:38 p.m. on August 26, 2016, the hearing on Councillor Guo Dahai came to an end."

Baek Jae-hyun struck a small wooden hammer three times, and the hearing officially ended, and Guo Dahai went to shake hands with Baek Jae-hyun and others to thank him.

Kim Shin-yeon left the parliament alone in despair, while Lee Ha-yun was picked up by her parents.

"Dahai, congratulations, you will definitely be declared innocent, as for Jin on behalf of that kid, don't worry, I will not let him go."

Kim Dong-won waited until Guo Dahai and Baek Jae-hyun and the others finished speaking, and he stepped forward and said to Guo Dae.

"Dong Yuan, thank you today, but I am the person who framed Kim on his behalf, so why should you punish him?"

Guo Dahai looked like he was hiding a knife in his smile, and Kim Dong Won forced a smile and said, "Kim represents that kid who has ruined the relationship between us, and besides, he has embezzled the public funds of the cheerleaders, of course I have to punish him, I won't let him have a good time."

"Well, that's between you, you can do it yourself."

"Okay, then I'll go first."

"If you are careful on the road, I will not send you."

"Okay."

On the way back to the office, from time to time, members of the Democratic Party of Korea who passed by greeted Guo Dahai.

Sun Chenghao answered a phone call and followed up and said to Guo Dahai: "Your Excellency, Secretary Cao has called to say that the party leader is holding a party meeting at six o'clock, please come and attend."

"Okay, I see."

On the other side, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

At Samsung Seoul Hospital in Ikwon-dong, Gangnam-gu, when Goo Yeon-so and her mother rushed to the hospital, Goo Ben-mao had woken up and been transferred from the emergency room to a regular VIP ward. ….

"Oba, what the hell is wrong with Abba?"

Outside the ward, Gu Yanxiu asked her brother Gu Guangmo.

"My father suddenly fainted during a meeting."

"What did the doctor say?"

Gu Guangmo took off his glasses and wiped them, and after putting them back on, he said, "The doctor said that my father was fine, but he fainted because he was too tired."

"It's great, Abba is fine."

Gu Yeon-so and her mother Kim Young-ji were about to enter the ward to see Gu Ben-mao, but they were stopped by Gu Guangmo, "Mother, Yeon-so, don't go in yet, my father is discussing things with my uncles."

"Your father is sick, and what are you still discussing?"

Kim Young-ji asked, looking at the hidden door of the ward.

"Mother, I don't know, please wait."

"Are you talking about Oba Daddy?" Gu Yeon-so took out her mobile phone and looked at the news, the hearing was over, and she said to herself, "I don't know what the outcome of the hearing will be."

In the ward, Gu Ben Shigeru was half lying on the hospital bed, and Gu Ben Aya and the others looked at the results of the brain CT scan, and they all had an expression of disbelief.

"Brother, why don't we go to the hospital in the United States and check it out."

Aya Goomoto looked particularly sad.

"No need."

It seems that Goo has come to terms with the fact that he has a brain tumor.

"No, brother, you look so healthy on weekdays, how can you ......?"

Gu Benjun kept shaking his head and said.

"The doctor said that hereditary factors cannot be ruled out, didn't grandpa die because of a brain tumor."

Goomoto's grandfather, Gu Renhui, died of a brain tumor on December 31, 1969, at the age of 63, when he died, Koo Ben Shigeru was only 25 years old, and he did not expect that more than 40 years later, he would suffer from the same disease as his grandfather.

When his younger brothers were in a state of grief, Gu Benmao remembered that today was the time for Guo Dahai's hearing, so he asked, "Is the result of Guo Dahai's hearing out?"

"No, it was said that the results of the hearing would be announced to the public at seven o'clock in the evening, but all the evidence is in Guo Dahai's favor at present, brother, it seems that we guessed wrong this time."

Aya Gomoto replied.

"Where's Yeon-so?"

"Yeon-so and sister-in-law are outside."

"Don't tell Yeon-su and your sister-in-law about my illness, you know?"

"Yes, I've already told the doctor and the light before that."

"He must have noticed our attitude towards Guo Dahai before, right?"

If Guo Dahai doesn't have an accident, Gu Benmao naturally won't object to him and Gu Yanxiu's affairs.

"Yes, Guo Dahai is such a smart person, he must have noticed our previous attitude, brother, should we explain it to Guo Dahai?"

"How do you explain it? Is it necessary for us to confess our mistakes to him?"

"It's not."

"But if we don't take the initiative to show favor to Guo Dahai, there will always be a gap between him and us in his heart, right?"

Gu Benzhi analyzed.

"Does he dare to give up Yeon-so and our family?"

Gu Benmao didn't believe that Guo Dahai would give up his relationship with their Gu family.

"Brother, you mean that when Guo Dahai takes the initiative to explain to us, we will give him another step down, right?"

"That's right."

As he spoke, Gu Benmao felt some pain in his head again, "You guys go out first, I want to take a rest."

"Yes."

When Goo Ben Aya and the others walked out of the hospital room, they explained Goo Ben-mao's condition to Kim Young-ji and Goo Yeon-so, after which they left the hospital, leaving Kim Young-ji and Goo Yeon-so to take care of Goo Ben-mao.

Changde Building

At six o'clock in the evening, before the Ethics Select Committee announced the results of the hearing, Mr. Moon held an impromptu party meeting.

At the party meeting, all the members of the Democratic Party of Korea were present, in addition to Lee Jae-myung, Park Won-soon, and Lee Nak-yeon, but Ahn Hee-jeong was unable to come.
