"Alright, even if you find the body, that's enough for me. Most importantly I can still see her for the last time before she's ushered in the final resting place." Minjung.

"I'm sorry once again." Seojun.

"What's wrong, death no one can know it" Reply Minjung. "Well, excuse me, you're still in a meeting, right?"

"Of course, we'll just go over the case and investigate Oh Ju Young's death." Reply Seojun.

"I'm sorry." Minjung bent her body and walked out of the room.

And coinciding with Minjung coming out, Soojin and Sunhyung come and enter the room.

"Is he your friend Han Minjung? Oh Ju Young's girlfriend?" Ask Sunhyung.

"Yes," Briefly Seojun.

"Why does he feel so familiar?" Soojin.

"He is a professional chef, he is commonly called the legendary Chef." Answer Seojun.

"Ehh?! He meant that famous Chef Han Minjung?!" Shocked Soojin.

"Nee, wae?" Ask Seojun.

"I'm one of his fans, I really admire all the recipes he makes himself!" Soojin Girang.

"Heh, well then, I'll let her know so you can meet next time." Seojun smiled faintly.

"really?! Thank you Seojun oppa?!" Soojin happily hugged Seojun.

"Together." Reply Seojun patted Soojin's head like a sister.

"Have finished the conversation and hugged her? If we're gonna start the meeting." Sunhyung chirps while folding his hands in front of his chest. And next to her was Hyejin who had just come up with a few piles of files in her hands.

"All right, come on." Reply Seojun. Soojin releases her embrace, then Seojun leads the way to the meeting room.

The four of them entered the meeting room and prepared something that would be discussed later.

Not long after, there were four people wearing the same uniform as Soojin and the others. They were the chief leaders of the other four divisions.

At the police headquarters there are five main divisions, including the detective division, investigation division, security division, arrest division, and finally the regulatory division.

The detective division is the division tasked with solving the cases that occur and looking for the perpetrators of crimes.

While the investigation division is the division that is tasked with investigating cases or a series of crimes that occur.

The security division is in charge of maintaining the security of the citizens when there is a problem in the city.

The capture division is tasked with capturing the perpetrators who are the masterminds who create trouble in the city.

The regulatory division is in charge of regulating everything within the city, from traffic, the activities of police officers, to the number of police officers who will be sent to help other divisions if the problem peaks.

"Alright let's start today's meeting" Seojun said.

"What will be discussed is the main perpetrator of serial murders, the perpetrator always makes a barcode mark on the backs of the victims' hands."

"Then last night there was a continuous accident, and the police who were there found the seventh victim of the code killer named Oh Ju Young." Hyejin began to explain the matter of Oh Ju Young's case.

"Is there any clue about the accident?" Asked a man who was the leader of the investigation division, his name was Min Yoona.

"Nothing, CCTV near the crash site has been tampered with, and the car where the victim was found was also a stolen car." Answer Sunhyung.

"I think the perpetrator did the same trick several times in killing his victims." Behind a woman representative of the arrest division, her name is Sung Harin.

"As for the victims, is there a motive for the killer killing them?" Asked a representative man from the regulatory division, his name was Ko Junghwa.

"For the time being it has not been found what the motive is" Reply Seojun. "But we found something about the barcode marks on each back of the victims' hands." Seojun. Then he looked towards Soojin coding something.

Soojin nodded then stood up from her seat and walked towards the laptop provided in the front of the meeting room and was connected to the projector.

Soojin typed quickly and the projector immediately took out a picture on a white screen, the picture showed some barcodes in the storybook, the report said, and below that picture is a bar code photo carved in the hands of the victims.

"We found that the barcode on each victim's back is related to the barcode in a storybook,"

"If you look at the order of the victims, the order is the same as the bar code indicating the year of publication of the book." Soojin.

"Where was the book published?" Ask YoonA.

"From companies that closed 20 years ago, the perpetrators used a book published by a company that had been closed for a long time so that no one was aware of the barcode in the book." Reply Soojin.

"How many books did the company publish?" Harin realized something.

"There are 10 books, after which they immediately close the company." Reply Soojin.

"The first victim happened 12 years ago, the second victim 10 years ago, the third and fourth victim 8 years ago, the fifth victim 5 years ago, the sixth victim was 3 years ago, and now the seventh victim was last night. So there are likely to be 3 more victims in the near future." Seojun.

"Alright, I'll increase the security of the citizens for some time to come." Minseok.

"I'll help you investigate the victim's previous case, maybe we can find a clue." Yoona.

"Then the arresting division, the regulator, and the detectives continued to perform their usual duties until there was a clue about the killer." Junghwa.

"Well then, today's meeting we've closed and will continue tomorrow." Seojun stood up and was followed by the others.

They all came out of the meeting room and did their own activities.

Now Sunhyung and Soojin are in Sunhyung's study. They both decided they would try to track down the perpetrator once again.

It has been almost half an hour Sunhyung quoted with a laptop on his desk.

"Ck, hais, jinjja." Upset Sunhyung closed his laptop tightly, or rather flattened it.

"Wae?" Soojin asked without seeing Sunhyung because she was busy peeling the skin of the apple using a folding knife that she always carried and kept under her clothes.

He was sitting on the sofa not far from Sunhyung's desk by the way.

"Once again my system's in trouble." Reply Sunhyung leaned back on the chair and massaged his head which began to feel dizzy.

"Is it true that he's programmed something so that every system he uses to track it becomes problematic?" Think Soojin.

"It looks like we can only follow time, and wait for clues that lead to the perpetrator." Sunhyung.

"If I wish the perpetrator would show up near us and we could catch him." Cetus Soojin ate a piece of apple.

"Oh yeah, I'm sorry if I brought it up, you used to see the gentle perpetrators of the second and third victims who were none other than my parents, right?" Ask Sunhyung.

Soojin stopped cutting her apple and then she smiled faintly, "What's wrong, I'm getting used to it anyway" Soojin replied.

"Ee, speaking of me seeing her, I don't really remember her face because the lighting was so dim, and she also wore a jacket and hood so I couldn't see her face." Soojin tries to remember the perpetrator of the most terrible event of her life.

"In several eyewitness accounts that saw the perpetrator when the fourth and sixth victims were also the same. The perpetrator always wears a hooded jacket every time he puts the victim in a place that is easy to find. Let's talk about this next time" said Sunhyung. Then he saw the watch he was wearing that showed 11:24.

"How about we have lunch before we take care of the case? All right, I'm taking Sunji?" Sunhyung's suggestion looked at Soojin who was still busy with apples in her grasp.

"All right, come on." Soojin stood up from her seat and followed Sunhyung.
