(A/N) Dammit another series 😐, I need to finish Daggers and get further in Drive. Here’s a little bit of Lawyer!Jeonghan (more of Detective!Jeonghan in this chapter, but hey there’s always more chapters 👈😎👈) 😊 Anyone play the app Devil’s Attorney because that game is fun as all hell and totally not the basis for Jeonghan 🤐
Warnings - Murder, blood, an attack
Genre - Uuhhhh… Angst? Totally gonna be smut in later chapters because it’s fucking Jeonghan in a suit
Pairing - Lawyer!Jeonghan x Forensics Expert!Y/N
“The case between Im v. The People ended today. Im Changkyun won with the help of local star lawyer, Yoon Jeonghan. This comes as a piece of good news for Yoon, as his company’s building, The Pledis Firm burnt down last month, causing him to share office space with the rival law firm, YG Law. ‘We have a good team on our hands,’ Yoon said on his way out, 'We fought for justice and we rightfully earned my client a win.’ Im was charged with 3 cou-”
Y/N grabbed the clicker and shut off the TV. Jeonghan spun around in his chair, throwing his legs up on the table, catching the attention of the expert.
“Just because your old office burnt down and you have to work here now doesn’t mean you get to put your feet on everything,” she pushed his feet off the surface, “this isn’t your house.”
Jeonghan stood up, “well, your boss said something about this casa is our casa. Just because you have a hatred towards my career doesn’t mean you get to treat me and my workers like shit”
“Y/N, Jeonghan! My office. Now.” The boss shouted out into the office. The two glared at each other before sulking into Yang’s office.
“I’ve heard you two seem to have not become used to the change,” the two started to argue over each other until they hear a fist hit the desk, “I want you two to work this case. A man, Tukhui, was murdered. His nephew, Lee Chan, got the shit beaten out of him by an unknown assailant, but the fuckhead left a some marks on Lee that Y/N should be able to get some information about. Yoon, the kid wants to meet you at the hospital tomorrow, so he can go about suing someone.”
“But he can’t if we don’t have a sus-”
“Well, I guess you better get acquainted with Miss Y/N’s office to strengthen your case, now shouldn’t you, Yoon?”
Before either party could object to the arrangement, Yang dismissed them.
“I’ll show you where my office is, don’t touch anything, don’t move anything, just sit in the corner and look pretty.”
Jeonghan chuckled, “so you admit I look good.”
“Shut the hell up and get in the elevator.”
As soon as the doors closed, Jeonghan turned to Y/N.
“Why would I hate you? It’s not like you and I were detectives together and then the second you got a job offer at Kim-Dong Firm with that Heechul and Sicheng, you turned your back on others.”
“Hoshi, Woozi, Seungcheol,” Y/N barely whispered a 'me’ before she continued her rant, “I’m pretty sure Dokyeom still has the punch buddy with your face in it.”
The silence from Jeonghan was deafeaning. An awkward elevator ride from Floor 13 to Ground Floor, Jeonghan decided to take a look at the case file.
“Witnesses saw a man, ranging from 5'9” to 6’ at the scene, running from the scene. Bystander effect, some claim as the reason they didn’t do shit. Chan scratched the guy and the guy got him a few good times, all DNA evidence is being sent to you as we speak.“
The two stepped out of the elevator and walked down the hallway to Y/N’s office.
“Yes, mother,” Jeonghan mocked.
“Didn’t realize you were into that,” Y/N said as she unlocked the forensics office.
As Jeonghan pushed past his brand new partner, he looked around the space, seeing the computers set up and a small bed in the corner.
“What’s with the cuddle corner?” Jeonghan sprawled out on the bed, making himself comfortable.
Hesitating, Y/N tried to snark back, “some late nights plus no caffeine equals a tiny cot in the corner. Any more questions?”
Jeonghan noticed the bitterness in the girl’s voice and sunk into the bed, awaiting the results. He pulled out his phone to take another look at the case.
“Lee Chan, 19 years old, brutally attacked, scratches and cuts all over his body. It’s assumed he was supposed to murdered instead of his uncle. His uncle, Lee Tukhui, has stabbed right in the temple, protecting Chan. Chan’s memory was foggy as the police arrived on the scene, so I don’t know how he’s gonna be ok to sue someone tomorrow.”
Jeonghan got up from the cot and walked over to Y/N’s computer.
“Running the DNA from under Lee’s fingers, comparing to his own and his uncle to cancel them out. Make sure it wasn’t a case of self-defense.”
As the computer was almost done, the power went out and Jeonghan screamed.
“Really Yoon? I wouldn’t think a big badass lawyer like yourself would be scared of a little darkness,” Y/N fake-pouted, “give it a few minutes, the emergency lights will turn on.”
“Excuse me, Fingerprint Princess, you never know what’s in the dark and you can’t ever be too su-”
The lights had cut to reveal the bloodied body of a woman on the floor. She had been stabbed in the stomach and her shirt was ripped. A note was in her hand.
“Hello, Y/N and Jeonghan.
I’m pleased to announce that the beginning of my game has started. You have 14 days to figure out who I am or I’ll get away. I want to test your skills. Lee Chan was supposed to be the first victim, but that bastard Tukhui had to play hero. I’m sad to see Miss Yoori go, she was so pretty, her body was right and the way she fucked could send a guy to Heaven. Shows her right for trusting the wrong guy.
Y/N looked at Jeonghan, “Call 911, get Hoshi and Seungkwan down here to canvas the scene. Don’t fucking touch a thing.”
(E/N) Too many series to be done 😣 This was supposed to be a Lawyer!Jeonghan, but I promise there will be Lawyer!Jeonghan in the story. I also will have a chapter of Daggers up soon, I know I’ve been saying that, but better later than never. I might make a Lawyer!Jeonghan smut totally unrelated to this soon.
