Murderrer Behind The Wall (Twelve)
“Excuse me, are you the owner of this cafe?” Yuka asked kindly to a young lady who was sitting behind the cashier table. The woman nodded kindly while greeting Yuka warmly.
“I am the owner of this cafe, my name is Kang Jina.”
“Oh what a coincidence, we are a team of investigators from the second division who want to see the cctv video installed in this cafe to look for the perpetrators of the murder who might have come to this cafe to buy something, he said, are you willing to show us?”
Jina seemed a little surprised by Yuka's words saying that an assassin might have just come to her cafe. The young woman quickly told one of her employees to show Yuka and Lay where the cafe's cctv monitor room was.
“Of course you can see it. My God, did my cafe just get a visit from a murderer?” jina asked. Yuka's small smile calmed Kang Jina down if that wasn't necessarily the case as they still had many names to look up to other than Eunjo.
“You rest easy, the person who came to your cafe this morning is not necessarily a murderer, either, we just want to strengthen his alibi if he really came here.”
“Oh thank God, may the person who came to my cafe not the killer you are looking for.” Jina said in horror. Yuka asks for permission to go inside with one of her cafe employees to view the cctv footage posted around the cafe. But suddenly his arm was blocked by someone and made him have to stop his steps to turn around.
“Lay you saw the cctv recording with Yeri, I have a short affair with miss Im.”
Haejun looked at both of Yuka's irises sharply without looking at the bewildered Lay next to him. But the man soon left when he realized that the atmosphere between the captain and his senior was a little uncomfortable.
“What's the captain, do you need anything from me?” yuka asked casually and looked unconcerned. Haejun pulled Yuka to one of the empty tables and forced Yuka to sit in front of him by pushing Yuka's shoulders slowly.
“You didn't tell me that today there has been a murder at Park Jaejong's agency, have you forgotten my status as your captain?” ask Haejun growled. All cases that are the responsibility of the second division should be reported to him first because he is the second division's responsibility.
“I'm sorry captain, I thought you were busy with your woman, so I felt bad for bothering you.” Yuka pointed out. Haejun snorted annoyedly at Yuka's childish attitude which was highly inappropriate for the show.
“This is not the time to mess around, and that woman is just the daughter of a friend, so you shouldn't show your childish jealousy.” whispered Haejun quietly with great emphasis. Yuka seemed unconcerned by Haejun's explanation and chose to stare at the other scenery around the cafe. He saw the woman who was with her husband a moment ago is currently stealing a look at him.
“You're selfish, you don't let me go with any man, but you're free to go with any woman. Even though it's the daughter of abeoji's best friend, I don't care! Even you forbid me from getting too close to Sehun, when he was clearly my junior and I could not possibly have any relationship with him. As for you, you can...”.
“We continue later.” whispered Haejun upset as he walked over to Yeri and Lay who had just emerged from the monitor room.
“How, did you guys find anything?”
“Crew named Eunjo, he actually came to this cafe at ten over ten, he said, then he was here until ten and forty to wait for his order to be cooked by the cafe chef, so Enjo was not the perpetrator of Jang Naeun's murder.” Lay concluded. Yuka nodded in understanding and took out
his little note to cross out Eunjo's name from the list of suspects. But they still have three names that have not been proven innocent, namely Minah, Jinan, and Minjung, the three women have a very weak alibi, especially Jinan because Sehun was proven to find a stomach remedy in Jinan's bag. As for Minah, the woman was around Naeun several times because they were close friends, so Minah also had the possibility to kill Naeun, although Yuka was a little hesitant because their relationship had always been good.
“Better now we return to headquarters to see the results of the autopsy performed Myungso and Minzi.” break up Yuka on Lay and Yeri.
After saying goodbye to the cafe owners, the four of them immediately walked away from the cafe to go to the headquarters. But Jaekyung suddenly restrains Haejun's arm and makes Yuka and the others stop their flustered steps.
“Lee Haejun ssi, I hope next time we can have lunch together again, I think I'm interested in you.”
Yeri giggled amusedly beside Lay while turning her face to the left. He was completely inexhaustible with a graceful woman like Jaekyung who confidently expressed his interest in the captain. But he also could not blame Jaekyung just like that, because after all the captain was handsome and attractive.
“I'll think about it again later. Now I have to go, please take your hands off my arms.”
Jaekyung immediately released her hand from Haejun's arm while smiling a smile full of happiness. But Yuka seems upset and walks away from Haejun, Lay, and Yeri to pick up her car at the agency office.
“What's with senior Im, why did he leave us?”
“Sstt.... senior Im is jealous of captain Lee for having a new lover. Look at senior Im's facial expression, he looks very upset with the woman, and like he wants to eat the woman alive.”
“Ehem, Lay, Yeri, what are you doing here? You guys aren't gossiping, are you?” sindir Haejun who had suddenly appeared behind them. Sontak Lay and Yeri looked at each other while speeding up their steps to catch up with Yuka. Rather than them getting punishment from their fierce captain, it was better for them to immediately go and catch up with Yuka.

“Yes God, why am I so careless and leave my glasses in the model waiting room, though the room must be sterile because Naeun was just killed there. But I had to keep taking my glasses because I couldn't see clearly without the glasses.” murmured Jinan frantically as he stepped himself into the quiet hallway of his office.
This afternoon Jinan returned to the office where she worked because she had forgotten her minus glasses left on the dresser. Even though this afternoon the police had put a dividing line around the scene of the murder, but he had no choice but to take it because it was the only glasses he had. After all, he had asked permission from the security guard in front, so he could slightly break through the police line to just pick up his glasses left behind.
Upon arriving in front of the model waiting room, Jinan felt the fur on his back standing up. This afternoon the agency was completely deserted as all the workers were sent home early because the police had to conduct an investigation around the building. But this afternoon Jinan did not see any police or detectives like this afternoon who were so crowded in front of the room where the murder took place. With a little fear, Jinan began to push the door slowly without making a sound. But Jinan faintly heard a noise, followed by the sound of footsteps that had just come out of the bathroom where Naeun's body was found. Quickly Jinan hid behind the door while peering out to make sure that his hearing was not wrong.
“Huh, fortunately the detective had not checked the sink pipe, they must have thought if this pipe was exposed to splashes of Naeun's blood, he said, though this pipe was the device I used to hit Naeun until her life was lost. Hahaha, Naeun does deserve to die, he must indeed suffer because it has broken Jiwon oppa's heart and made Jiwon oppa experience severe depression in the mental hospital. But the detective will definitely think of Jinan as the perpetrator of Naeun's murder because Jinan consumed the same stomach medicine I gave Naeun. As soon as the detective performs an autopsy, Jinan will definitely be made a suspect in this murder.”
Jinan closed his mouth not believing what he had just heard. It turns out that the perpetrator of Naeun's murder was the one who always looked good in front of everyone. And the severity of the person who killed Naeun is the one who has a strong alibi to deny all the charges leveled against her.
Jinan shook in fear as she tried to grab her phone to contact the security guard standing guard on the first floor. But suddenly his phone just rang loudly and caused the killer to turn a cruel look at Jinan.
“Kim Jinan, what are you doing in there?” said the killer quietly with a scary grin.

Yuka and the other intel members are still investigating the Naeun murder case which until now has not shown a bright spot. Two hours ago Myungso gave his autopsy results and told everyone that Naeun had been shown to take gastric drugs before she died. But Yuka later denied Sehun's accusation that Kim Jinan was the perpetrator of Naeun's murder, because even though Sehun found the same stomach remedy that Jinan had, it was not, but still it could not be used as an excuse because Naeun died from a blunt force blow, not from drug poisoning. But then Lay added if in the stomach medicine consumed by Naeun there are substances that can make the drinker become sleepy, so it is possible that Jinan gave the drug to make Naeun a little sleepy and when Naeun was off guard, Jinan directly hit the blunt object into Naeun's body until she died.
“Then what about the other two crews, don't they both have strong alibis?”Tanya Haejun mediates the debate between Yuka, Lay, and Sehun.
“Minjung and Minah do not have strong alibis, but they do not show
suspicious gestures in the slightest, so that for a while they are free from accusations.” Minzi explained. But Haejun seemed dissatisfied with Minzi's reply as the two men also had an equal chance of Jinan killing Naeun. Moreover, Minah is the closest person to Naeun, so she actually has great access to kill Naeun because all this time she was always seen with Naeun.
“Have you searched the belongings of these three women and their lockers? It is possible that one of their belongings can be the key to uncover this case.”
“While in Jinan's locker we found some rolled-up wipes, gastric medicine, notebooks, headsets, some make-up guidebooks and fashion magazines. Actually Kim Jinan has absolutely no sharp objects in his locker.”
“Then what about Minah's locker?”
“In Minah's locker we found scissors, a nail cutter, a ballpoint pen, and some fashion magazines, she didn't have any dangerous objects in her locker. But we found the crumpled paper in his locker, like a letter but it was torn in some parts.”
Sehun pulled a paper that looked torn and tangled in his face. The paper contained a row of neatly written words, but because it had been torn, Yuka could not read the letter in full. However, Yuka reads a few words expressing guilt and apology, but unfortunately Yuka does not know who wrote the letter because some parts of the letter are not intact.
“This letter is actually suspicious, but I cannot conclude it with this letter because this letter is not intact and in some parts. Is there any of you checking the bathroom, because I just realized that the bathroom in the room is a little suspicious. Before the first session, I used the bathroom to wash my hands, but the pipes in the sink were slightly leaking and wetting my shoes, so did any of you check it out because I suspected that the pipe was actually a device used to beat Naeun to death.”
Sehun and Minzi who were in charge of checking the bathroom were looking at each other because they seemed to have missed that part because the pipe was already filled with stains a lot of blood.
“We have to go back there and make sure the pipe itself because it might be a tool used to beat the victim to death.” broke up Haejun firmly and immediately went to go to Park Jaejong's agency office.

“Kim Jinan is out right now, I know you are still in this building and are hiding from me.”
Jinan shook in fear as she hugged her knees behind the shooting property in studio three. His heart kept screaming in fear and he wanted to ask the security guard below for help. But unfortunately he dropped his phone while in the model waiting room because he was too afraid of his fate that it might end up the same as Jang Naeun.
“Bas coward, if you claim to be brave then come out now because I will finish you soon so that you can also catch up with Naeun in hell. Have you not been competing with each other all this time? If you come out of your hiding place now I will hasten your death so that you can meet Naeun in hell.”
Jinan continued to chant the prayer inwardly while wiping away the tearful twisters that had flooded her pale face. If only today he had not decided to return to take his glasses, maybe he would not have been unlucky like this.
Brak!
Jinan shook his head in shock as he began to hear the sound of items being dropped inside studio three. He also increasingly clenched his mouth so that the sound of his shrill stuffing does not sound loud out there, because the killer is currently looking for him and wants to kill him with cruelty.
“Hong Minah, give up now and raise your hands up.” cried Haejun from the doorway. Minah who was looking for Kim Jinan instantly dropped the pipe she used to hit Naeun and immediately raised her hand upwards in surprise. While Yuka who was behind Haejun directly
he bursts into the studio to find Jinan hiding in fear among the belongings of the shooting property.
“Lay, Sehun, take the suspect to the police station.”
“Don't arrest me, I'm innocent, I just did what I was supposed to do. Sir, please don't take me to the police station, I have to take care of Jinwo oppa who is depressed in a mental hospital. Miss Yuka please save me, I don't want to languish in jail.”
Minah continues to thrash when Lay and Sehun drag her out to be taken to the police station. While Yuka was only able to look at the concern while sighing slowly because it turns out the friendship between Naeun and Minah is not as beautiful as she imagined. Their friendship must be tarnished because Naeun once hurt Minah's older brother and caused the man to go into deep depression due to getting a very painful rejection from Naeun.
“Jinan, thank goodness you survived.”
“Nona Im's... Ohhh, I'm so scared.” said Jinan limp in Yuka's arms. Yuka immediately asked Jinan to get out of the agency building so that Jinan could calm down her frightened self.

Yuka straightened her legs on the bed while fingering her fashion magazine nonchalantly. Haejun who just came out of the bathroom was not at all attracted by Yuka
after because the two of them were still in truce mode. Actually only Yuka had a truce, Haejun himself preferred to be calm by ignoring Yuka's anger. But for a long time he was also caught off guard by Yuka's attitude that had always ignored him. In fact, he had to cook dinner by himself because Yuka refused to cook food for him.
“So today Enzo is not here?”
A very stupid question Haejun had just thrown out to open a conversation with Yuka. Obviously since last time he did not find the whereabouts of his son in his house, it is certain that tonight his son is at the house of Yuka's parents, but foolishly he asked that and made Yuka increasingly indifferent to him.
“Hhuhhh well, I gave up on your rock-like stubbornness, so let's make up.”
“Nown? Are we having a fight?” yuka says asking makes Haejun even more upset that his patience is being tested by his wife.
“Yuka, I don't think you're having amnesia, so I'm pretty sure you still remember our little fight at the cafe. I'm sorry, I admitted wrong for having lunch with the woman earlier.”
Haejun sat down next to Yuka like a defendant who was about to be tried. While Yuka seemed to start to melt with Haejun's honest-sounding words of confession.
“So who exactly was that woman? Oppa wasn't looking for another woman to replace me, was he?” yuka asked full of probes as she pointed her index finger at Haejun's nose. Haejun immediately brushed the hand off his nose while staring fixedly at Yuka.
“She is Kim Jaekyung, daughter of Appa's best friend, Kim Junwo. All this time I always refused uncle Junwo's offer to meet his daughter, then today he used a devious way to say if he was a victim of violence that requires my help. But after I arrived at the cafe, it turned out that Kim Jaekyung was waiting for me while offering me lunch so that later when
his father asked about his meeting with me he could answer the question smoothly. So nothing happened between us. She is only the daughter of a friend appa.” said Haejun honestly and sincerely. It felt like now Yuka wanted to laugh seeing Haejun's face so heartbreakingly asking for forgiveness. But usually if her husband behaves like that, he must be wanting something from her. Moreover, a few days ago he was kindly giving a car gift as their wedding anniversary gift, of course the man was wanting something from him.
“What do you want from me oppa?” yuka asked flatly with a face that pretended not to care. Donghe instantly revealed his bright smile while clenching Yuka's hands to her lips to be let out.
“My Love Lee Yuka, you are indeed a very understanding wife, thank you dear. Tonight I just want you, hmm.”
Yuka closed her magazine hard and immediately put the magazine on the nightstand. Tonight is the time to spoil her husband so that he does not whine more like Enzo when not bought a toy.
“You may touch me today but on one condition, don't make me pregnant!”
“Deal, I won't make you pregnant dear.” Haejun's promise was overjoyed and immediately hit Yuka's body sitting next to him. But before Haejun could kiss Yuka's lips, the woman held Haejun's chest so that the man would not kiss her directly.
“Oppa has turned off the stove, locked the door, put the leftovers into the refrigerator, washed the dirty dishes that oppa used, memmpphhhhh.
“You're too noisy dear.” Haejun whispered violently before coming back to rub Yuka's lips brutally.
