Seen a man sitting in his dark luxury home he accidentally turned off his lights like he was in a cinema. The man sat quietly, sometimes he raised his lips smiling at the news on television. He saw the news of serial murder cases exposed throughout the country which was the work of his. A feeling of pride enveloped him so that he felt very happy.

“Same as I expected” he said with a smile.

“It just so happened that you were there. It's gonna get interesting. Hihihah. Lets start the game babe” continued as the tv screen showed a video of a member of the special investigation team.

Then he saw the Commissioner who was giving a press conference about the murder case. The commissioner promised to immediately arrest the perpetrators to create a safe environment.

“Hahahahahaha” the man laughed upon hearing the promise given by the Commissioner.

“Interesting. Let's see if you can make all that happen. You bodih” people said the man.

The man took a blue scarf and put it in a gift box.

After the leak of the information, the Inspector becomes very angry and calls Byung Jun to ask how the case could be leaked to the public.

"I told you to keep this case a secret but how can it be in just one day everyone already knows about this" Park Han Woo said with annoyance.

"Even the commissioner also intervened. Don't you know that the commissioner is also very angry" tambag Han Woo.

The commissioner held a press conference to apologize and explain if the police would do their best and immediately catch the killer. People who are already afraid to demand explanation and protection from the police. The atmosphere inside the police station became chaotic, they had to move quickly to look for evidence, ranging from CCTV, tools used to kill and also the motive for murder.

On the other hand Ha Ru started reading the murder files to find the motive for the murder and to find out other clues that might lead to me. Ha Ru made a summary about the victims.

All of the victims were young women aged 29-36, they had also just come out of a nightclub. They could have been kidnapped at that time, but there was no sign of resistance so the victim could have known the perpetrator. But how do they know each other? Where does the victim know the perpetrator? The first victim came out of Sun's nightclub, the second from Rose's nightclub, the third victim from Bright and the last from Pigeon. Everything is in Gap-dong. The time needed from the location of the last victim to where the victim was found is about 20-30 minutes. The victims were found not far from the abduction. There is not a single CCTV showing the perpetrator which means the perpetrator is very familiar with this area. They were killed very cruelly which means the perpetrator has a grudge against the victim but the perpetrator also pity the victim because he gave the victim a blanket so that the victim does not get cold. So now the most important thing is how do they know the perpetrator? It is likely that the perpetrator was a psychopath as seen from the way he killed his victims.

“Min Ki, can you find out if the victims have anything in common? Like whether they're from the same school or they know each other. Anyway find their similarities” tell Ha Ru to Min Ki.

“They have nothing in common whatsoever the school, where the brand grew up, the environment of friends or whatever it is completely different. I've investigated it” Young Joon replied

“Surely some are missed, there is no way they have nothing in common. I'm sure they must have met the perpetrators somewhere” Ha Ru said.

“So you think the perpetrators and victims know each other?” ask Young Joon.

“Yes, because they got into that car voluntarily. That means they know the perpetrator very well and trust the perpetrator. And also the perpetrator seems to hate his victims a lot” Ha Ru explained.

From Ha Ru's explanation, Young Joon investigated everything from the beginning again. He wanted to find what was missing from his research. Young Joon leaves and invites Min Ki to investigate. Their first destination was the workplace of the first victim named Park Ga Young. They head to the cafe where the victim works and meet Ga Young's friend who is the owner of the cafe.

Despite explaining about Ga Young to the police, he was willing to explain it again because Ga Young was his dear friend.

"Ga Young lived alone for a long time and she only worked here for 6 months after being fired from her job. As a friend I feel sorry because he still has to work part-time at his age which is not young anymore. But even so Ga Young never gave up and was always grateful for what she got" explained the cafe owner.

"He is still trying to become a civil servant because he thinks it is a job that can change his life. Although he has failed 7 times he still remains eager to achieve his dream because of the sacrifice of his parents. Ga Young is also a good person so it is impossible if there is a grudge against him. His life only focused on working and studying he did not even have a lover for 7 years. It's just that he felt depressed so he went to the nightclub to relieve stress but it happened" explained the cafe owner who could not help but cry when he thought of his best friend.

He felt sorry and guilty for Ga Young.

“I'm sorry we had to ask for old wounds. Are you sure that Ga Young has no enemies? ” asked Young Joon while giving tissue to the cafe owner.

“I'm very sure Ga Young is a good person so there's no way she has an enemy she can't even kill insects for feeling guilty, but recently she felt if her ex-boyfriend followed her. Even her ex-boyfriend once sneaked into Ga Young's house. Ga Young had also reported it to the police but the police said that the two lovers who fought were so. They never took Ga Young seriously. He was so scared that he had to go to psychiatrist” explained the cafe owner.

"True, she was Ga Young's girlfriend in High School but until now she still annoys Ga Young, because she is also Ga Young so can't date anyone" explained the cafe owner.

Do you have any information about Park Ga Young's ex-girlfriend?” ask Young Joon.

“Of course Ga Young ever introduced her to me” said the cafe owner.

The owner of the cafe looked at his cell phone and searched for contact from Ga Young's ex-girlfriend.

“His name is Park Yu Chan and this is his phone number. He works as security at a shopping mall” the cafe owner continued while showing the phone number of Park Yu Chan to the police.

After getting the information about Park Yu Chan they immediately left the cafe. When they were about to leave the cafe they accidentally met Ha Ru who was about to enter the cafe.

“Senior, did not expect to meet you here” greet Min Ki.

“Hallo, what are you doing?” ask Ha Ru.

“We're investigating a case, what are you doing here. Who is he?” young Joon asked quietly in doubt.

“Ah, we will have coffee after lunch. Have you guys had lunch?" ask Ha Ru.

"Young Joon's senior has always forgotten to eat while investigating the case" explained Min Ki.

"You have to eat, then you can solve the case well. Oh yeah this is my boyfriend Lee Won. And they are my teammates” Ha Ru said as she introduced them.

They also introduced themselves to each other and did not forget Lee Won asked teammate Ha Ru to take good care of Ha Ru. He also said that Ha Ru is a good person even if a little stubborn. They finally separated after meeting.

“Wah I did not expect if Lieutenant Ha Ru has a very handsome lover, they look very suitable” said Min Ki.

“Yes, let's quickly enter, we have to go” Young Joon said.

Ha Ru deliberately invites her boyfriend to have coffee at the cafe where Ga Young works. He wanted to observe what was and see who knew there was useful evidence for the investigation.

“Welcome, want to order what?” said the official who greeted Ha Ru and Lee Won.

“Oh, old doctor did not see. How are you?” ask the officer to Lee Won.

“Do you know him?” ha Ru asked her lover.

“Ah, she is my former patient” Lee Won said with a slight panic.

“This is my lover” continued Lee won introduced Ha Ru to the employee.

“Ah, your girlfriend is very beautiful” said the official.

“Thank you. I ordered vanilla latte” Ha Ru said.

“You just sit down, I'll wait for the drink” said Lee won like trying to cover something.

Ha Ru obeyed the orders of her lover, she sat by the window and looked around. Sometimes he sees Won who looks very friendly to the owner of the cafe. When looking around he accidentally saw a scarf that did not look sing for him, the scarf was tied to a plant in front of the store. After thinking long enough it turned out to be a scarf worn by one of the victims. Ha Ru took the scarf from the outside and noticed the scarf in more detail, sure enough the scarf was exactly the same.

“Does this scarf belong to Park Ga Young?” ha Ru asked the officer.

“True, it belongs to brother Ga Young” replied the clerk.
