The Eighth Case (7)

After my revealing encounter at the Little Sunshine Daycare Center, I waste no time in convening an urgent meeting with Seo and our investigative team. The conference room is tense as I lay out my suspicions about Jae-hoon, the son of the daycare's owner, Mrs. Hong. Initially, there's palpable skepticism in the room. Detective Kim, always the devil's advocate, points out the risks of targeting someone so closely connected to a pillar of the community. However, as I meticulously detail my observations and the troubling coincidences, even the most doubtful team members begin to nod in agreement.

Seo, his face etched with concern, finally breaks the silence. "This is delicate," he says, his voice low and determined. "But if there's even a chance you're right, we can't ignore it. We'll investigate Jae-hoon, but with the utmost discretion. One false move, and we could lose everything."
