I don't know how many times I've taken administrative leave

It was evident that although Jimmy and the Ministry of Internal Affairs seldom interacted, they held no favorable impression toward ADA Kaya, such a direct confrontation in words was quite uncommon.

Kaya likely wasn't unfamiliar with this kind of talk, she immediately stopped questioning, knowing well that the prosecutors and police were two separate systems and she did not need to give any face to Sergeant Palmer.

Jimmy watched the unfolding scene with some surprise, forming a new conjecture. If he was not mistaken, Ms. Kaya was here to express her stance, yet she had no intention of causing any trouble.

It was rumored that Ms. Kaya might be nominated as a prosecutor, and if his guess was right, her objective was to assert her toughness and unwillingness to compromise on various occasions while essentially doing no real work, merely leaving behind a reputation.

Well, this was no longer a case of bait-and-switch; it was like hanging a lamb's head and then selling air straight up.
