Haejun was walking cobbled behind Yuka and Sehun who was busy talking about things excitedly. Some of the people who had passed by him and were busy greeting him seemed to be completely unmoved, as the focus of his gaze was only on Yuka. It felt like he wanted to pull Yuka's hand and tell everyone that Yuka was his and that he had a son who was adorable and handsome.
“Senior Im, how about if we have a party after solving this murder case, it has been a long time since we have partied with Yeri, Lay, and Minzi.”
“Party? Eee... what about our captain, will he agree to it?” yuka asked while whispering in Sehun's ear. Haejun who saw his wife in such a close distance with Sehun became increasingly sultry and annoyed. He thought after this he should teach Yuka a lesson.
“We do not need to invite him senior, after all our fierce captain is also very boring.” reply Sehun while whispering. But without them realizing Lee Haejun was already right behind them, so it was certain that the handsome captain listened to everything Sehun had talked to Yuka.
“Ehem, Oh Sehun you can have a party with anyone but Yuka because
he had to shoot until midnight today.” said Haejun firmly with a slightly threatening tone. Oh Sehun glared back at Haejun, yet he did not dare to reveal it so blatantly that he could only nod his head weakly while looking at Yuka with a parched face.
Upon Yuka's arrival in the meeting room, Yuka was immediately greeted by her juniors who had idolized Yuka as an artist.
“Eonni!! Finally you come too, I want to ask for your autograph on the front cover of this Grazia magazine. Eonni looks so beautiful and sexy here. Please give eonni signature here.”
Yeri and Minzi came up with a splash in front of Yuka while presenting two new editions of Grazia magazine that just published this week. Yuka happily picked up her marker and immediately put her signature on top of the magazines proffered by her colleagues. Sometimes Yuka felt astonished by the two beautiful juniors, even though they were members of the state intelligence, but they did not lose their identity as a woman. They can still follow the latest fashion trends at the beginning of the season, and they can also still scream excited when telling stories about idols they are very passionate about. Some with her former self really feel constrained because Haejun always limits his movements.
“Good morning everyone, today I will give you a new case, so I hope you guys put yourself in your seats immediately.”
Suddenly Haejun entered the meeting room and interrupted Yeri and Minzi's activities who were talking about their idols who were filming or shooting. Both of them immediately sat themselves on the chair that had been provided in the middle of the room. Meanwhile, Haejun appeared to be getting ready in front of the main table while showing pictures of Kim Sora's corpse assisted by Yuka next to him.
“Captain's case details sent by commissioner.”
“Thanks miss Im, now you can sit in your place.”
Yuka then walked away towards her seat which was right next to Sehun. And when Yuka was already sitting next to him, Sehun's face instantly turned into a twinkle with a strange smile that was drawn to his right and left.
“Alright because it is complete, let's start our meeting this morning. So then...
Oh Sehun, please behave more naturally.” said Haejun suddenly when he felt uncomfortable with Sehun's attitude which he thought was very disgusting. All the intel members who attended the meeting that morning seemed to giggle softly laughing at the stiff face of Sehun who got a direct reprimand from Haejun.
“So this morning an artist named Kim Sora was found lifeless in a landfill on the Seoul border. It is suspected that Kim Sora was the victim of a premeditated murder committed by those closest to him because the way the suspect killed the victim looks very neat and smooth. Even the police themselves are quite difficult to trace the whereabouts of the killer because the killer barely leaves any clues at all to investigate. The autopsy this morning only found a scratch scar on the neck of the alleged victim because the victim was fighting when the suspect was about to kill the victim with an object that was thought to be a long rope. Then our job here is to find the killer and reveal the motive behind the murder. Do you guys understand?”
“Ya, understand captain.”
“Lay and Minzi, you go to the autopsy room at the Seoul hospital to collect
evidence in the victim's body. Sehun, Yuka, and Yeri, you go to the landfill and the victim's house to find evidence of the murder there. Now you can go and do your own thing.” close Haejun before he walks out of the meeting room. Yuka stared at Haejun's departure in silence while thinking about the man.
Why did Haejun oppa not participate in the investigation of the case?
“Senior Im, let's go, what are you doing there?”
Sehun called out to Yuka hard enough from the doorway until Yuka was a little surprised. The woman then immediately approached Sehun and walked out together with her other teammates.

“Ugh... This room is a mess.”
Yeri exclaimed softly as she observed Kim Sora's extremely messy room in front of her. The room was like it had just been broken into by a thief because some closet drawers seemed open and on the floor were also scattered many important papers containing identity, passport, and other valuable papers.
“Actually what the suspect was looking for in the victim's house, senior Im did you find anything?”
Yeri walked over to Yuka who was reading the files scattered on the floor, accidentally her husband's eyes found a photo that was lying under the papers scattered on the floor. He took the picture and Yuka began to look at the faces of the people in the portrait.
“Not that Kim Sora along with his son.” Yeri said behind Yuka. Yuka turned to Yeri and asked Yeri to explain in more detail.
“Yes, this boy carried by Kim Sora is Kim Sora's son who has been hidden.”
“How do you know if this is the son of Kim Sora, not all this time the media never knew it at all.” asked Yuka with a curious face. Even though he caught a paparazzi wet this morning taking pictures of Kim Sora's son at the same school as Enzo, he said, but he wasn't sure if the paparazzi still had his picture because he had taken the paparazzi's memory card.
“Actually I've seen Kim Sora in the supermarket with his son to shop. Although he already uses the disguise attribute, but I can recognize it from the strange gawagat and also the voice of his son who accidentally pointed at the picture of his mother who became the front cover of a magazine. Huhh, how is the fate of the child now? He must be very hit with the death of his mother.” sigh Yeri concerned while staring at the photo of son Kim Sora inside.
“Then who are these two men? They both look a little similar to Kim Sora.” point Yuka at the photo of two adult men who are standing to the right and left of Kim Sora while posing cutely facing the camera. Yeri shook her head in ignorance while observing the man's face seriously.
“Maybe we should find out Kim Sora's family history from the database, because I think the two men still have a close relationship with Kim Sora, in addition, their faces are also similar, so we have to check the database belonging to the victim.”, Yuka said while slipping the photo into her pocket.
“Senior Im, I have checked all cctv installed in this apartment area.”
Suddenly Oh Sehun came while carrying two cctv recordings in both hands. The man approached Yuka and reported the results of her investigation conducted in the monitor room.
“So from all the cctv recordings I've seen, I found two cctv recordings that I thought were awkward. The first cctv recording was a cctv recording from the hallway of the apartment where the victim's room was located, in this footage it appears the victim was receiving a guest of a man at six in the afternoon,
but the guest was not here long, because twenty minutes later the man came out of Kim Sora's apartment while bowing his head and he looked like he was hiding his face from the cctv. Then in the second recording, this recording came from a cctv in the basement, here Kim Sora seemed to rush into his car to go somewhere, and even here Kim Sora almost hit a drunk who was staggering in the basement of the apartment. Senior, we should investigate this footage further at headquarters to find the perpetrator who had killed Kim Sora.” Sehun suggested while inserting the recordings he had found into the adhesive clear plastic.
“Come, I think we should go to headquarters to investigate because I also need Kim Sora's database to uncover Kim Sora's mysterious background.”
The three intel immediately left Kim Sora's apartment to conduct further investigations. And without them noticing as they walked through the hallway of the deserted apartment, a man with a hoodie-covered face was hiding behind a wall while observing the departure of Yuka and her comrades. The man furrowed his brow dislike and sneaked into Kim Sora's open room.

In a quiet classroom Enzo looked sad as he folded his knees in the corner of the room. The little man occasionally wiped his tears that had continuously flowed on both of his white cheeks.
“Enzo-ya, what are you doing there?”
“Enzo did not want to appear, Enzo wanted mommy and daddy.” raved Enzo raspy while shaking his halmeonized wrinkled hands that were persuading him to stand up. Mrs Im breathed a soft breath seeing the behavior of her grandson today who did not want to perform at her school's art show, even though today Enzo had to perform to sing with his other friends, he said, if Enzo doesn't want to perform then his class choir group won't look good because Enzo plays the leader in the choir group.
“Enzo-ya, mommy and your daddy are at work, but they will definitely come to see Enzo sing.”
“Lying! Mommy and daddy definitely will not come as usual, they are not dear to Enzo.”
The little boy was getting louder and louder in the corner of his class while slipping his body on the floor. No matter if the floor was dirty or clean, Enzo still cried on the floor hysterically even though the halmeoni had tried to persuade him in various ways. Madam Im then let out
her phone calls Yuka because the middle-aged woman can no longer persuade her stubborn granddaughter, but an hour later the staging will begin, inevitably Yuka and Haejun must come to Enzo's school and persuade their son to be willing to perform with his other friends.
“Halo Yuka, are you busy?”
“.........”
“No, it's about Enzo, he's crying in his class right now because you and Haejun didn't come to watch the show. Can you come? At least one of you should come to persuade Enzo because Enzo has an important role in this staging.” said the lady Im half force. Mrs Im heard her daughter was currently sighing across the street because her daughter was currently on her way to a murder scene.
“..........”
“Then what about Lee Haejun, is he also working on the same case as you?”
“.........”
“Then eomma will try to contact him, you solve your case first, after that come to Enzo's school to see him perform, please, during this time you also never come to see it, so please do not disappoint Enzo.” message Madam Im before she hangs up her phone.
Lady Im then turns to her faithful granddaughter crying on the floor, but now Enzo no longer rolls around like he did a moment ago. The boy was currently cowering miserably on the floor with a severed breath.
“Enzo-ya, halmeoni will definitely make your mommy and daddy come.” promise madam Im earnestly while stroking the top of Enzo's head dear.

Elsewhere Yuka is trying to contact Haejun who has since been very difficult to contact. Several times he called Haejun to tell the man to come to Enzo's school, but his phone calls were always answered by the voice of the operator. And Yuka's face that looked riled up managed to attract the attention of Sehun who was driving beside her.
“There's what senior, you look upset.”
“I was upset with captain Lee because since then he could not be contacted, even though I wanted to ask him a lot of things.” Yuka grumbled while trying to contact Haejun once again. The woman seemed impatient to wait for Haejun to pick up his phone, but just as he was about to give up and turn off his phone, suddenly the man he had been waiting for finally picked up his phone call.
“Halo, captain Lee.”
Yuka deliberately raised her voice while greeting Haejun so that Haejun would know if he was with his other teammates.
“What's up, I'm in a meeting with the president.”
Yuka frowned when she heard Haejun's slightly echoing voice, as if Haejun was receiving a phone call in the bathroom.
“Captain, are you busy?”
“I'm very busy Yuka, quickly tell me your destination call me.”
Yuka snorted annoyedly at Haejun's demeanor that seemed to be hunting her down, and also the man seemed to be hiding something from her. All this time if her husband is going to meet with the president or is handling a case, surely her husband will tell her first. But this morning Haejun did not say anything and suddenly went with the president for a meeting. Isn't that weird?
“Read my message now, it matters!” yuka whispers were full of emphasis. Sehun who was next to him immediately turned his head full of curiosity as Yuka started whispering to Haejun.
“You're contacting captain?” tanya Sehun wanted to know. Yuka turned to Sehun at a glance and nodded her head slowly in response.
“Ck, I'll read it soon. See you.” close Haejun with a pissed off. Yuka stared at the screen of her mobile phone and wanted to grumble. But seeing that Sehun and Yeri were paying attention to her attitude, Yuka quickly stuffed the square object into her pants pocket and immediately distracted the two of them with the case of Kim Sora they were dealing with.
“What Lay and Minzi have already provided the information they got at the hospital?” tanya Yuka diverted. Yeri, who has been getting messages from Lay, immediately opened her phone and gave the square object to Yuka.
“Lay and Minzi said they found nothing in the hospital other than the autopsy results that the hospital had previously sent to the headquarters, then when they went to the scene they only found the rattan box used to dispose of Kim Sora's body, looks like we should investigate the men who were with Kim Sora if we want to trace the killer's trail, because I think this murder case involved them.” Yeri hypothesized. Yuka nodded in understanding and then ordered Yeri to contact the vector team so that they could find data related to Kim Sora.
While Yeri is struggling with Vector's team, Yuka seems to be busy with messaging with her mother. His mother now tells him that Enzo is still crying and does not want to appear with his friends even though his other teachers have persuaded him in various ways. Yuka then sighed in frustration with her situation which was not possible. But the show will be held in thirty minutes, if he does not come then Enzo will still cry and disappoint his other friends.
I need to take action now!
“Oh Sehun, please put me down in front.”
Sehun turned his head puzzled by Yuka's sudden orders. But he still complied with Yuka's request by pulling his car over on the right lane.
“What senior does, does senior need something?”
“No, I just want to go to Kindergarten Kirin, just now captain Lee told me to keep an eye on Kim Sora's son, because it looks like the boy will be in danger. After all we also do not know all this time the child was taken care of by Kim Sora himself or others, so I have to go there to watch him.” lied Yuka smoothly. I don't know where the idea came from in his head. Maybe it was because of her maternal instinct that was being pushed around.
“Then I will escort the senior there.”
“Ah no need.” reject Yuka fast. After all, after this, he had to prepare a little disguise so that Enzo's teachers and other student guardians would not recognize him as Im Yuka, the rising model.
“I'll go by taxi, you better go to headquarters and inform me if you have found the data about the two men in the photo.” Yuka said quickly while opening the door of Sehun's car. After that Yuka immediately ran away and stopped the taxi that happened to be passing in front of her.
“Oh Sehun, do you think senior Im is a little strange after calling captain Lee?” ask Yeri full of probes. Oh Sehun stared at Yeri through the rearview mirror, then the man immediately drove his car towards the headquarters.
“Don't make me hot Kim Yeri, I know you just want to tease me.” replied Sehun Sakarstik and made Yeri laugh out loud behind him. Since the first woman was always teasing him related to his senior and captain who have a very close relationship. In fact, he had thought that Yuka and Haejun were lovers, but it was immediately strongly denied by Oh Sehun because the man was Im Yuka's number one fan.
“Sensitive men's basis. Besides I would rather agree if senior Im with captain Lee, they look more harmonious.” said Yeri heated up. Sehun then chose to listen to the music of the player's music out loud so that he did not need to listen to Yeri's useless chatter.
