A cloud of twilight dust covers the atmosphere.  Lisa stands in front of the window.  She looks at the police station that’s situated directly opposite to her house.

    After the Chief entered the house,  the police asked everyone to leave the villa.  She returned home before the Chief finished meeting with Jungkook.  

    Jennie comes out from the study. She hands over a journal to her sister: "I want the great god’s autograph!"

    Lisa turns to look at her: “Really?” Yesterday, she was still calling Jungkook a "male demon."

    Jennie nods: “I am a super fan of the US series 'Criminal minds’.  Here I am, living with a real life expert in the field in the same town. I can’t miss this opportunity!!"

    Lisa turns around and looks out the window:. "I'm not going to ask him for an autograph."

    "Why?" Jennie is surprised.  She doesn’t understand why her sister is so against the idea.  "Sis, is there something that’s bothering you?"

    Lisa gives a sigh.  “Nothing.  Do you know what he will say when I ask for an autograph?”

    "What?"

    Lisa tries to imitate his arrogant tone. Lowering her voice,

"If I satisfy everyone’s wish to get my autograph, I’d be without a hand by now. “

    Jennie : "Ah?"

    Lisa : "...... detached due to over-using ."

    Jennie rolls her eyes: “Your joke is not even funny?"

    Lisa laughs: “This is not a joke."

    ———-

  Lisa is very shocked to hear the identity of Jungkook.  Her first impression of him is that he is a very arrogant, low  EQ, naive introvert.  

    Can such a person really be a world-renowned expert? 

    Well, sometimes life does throw you some surprises.   

    The phone rings. It’s Taehyung, Lisa immediately answers the phone.  

"I see that you are home.  Are you free to come to my office now?"

    -

    The distance between the police housing compound and the offices are less than a few hundred meters away. A few minutes later, Lisa enters Taehyung’s office.

    Taehyung gives her a glass of water. His bright eyes are looking at her. A lot of the ladies working in the police station consider him an attractive man.   

He does not say a word.  Lisa doesn't speak to him either. She sips the water he gave her.  The atmosphere is a little awkward.  Finally, he asks the question that really bothers him: “Is Jungkook wooing you?” 

Lisa almost chokes: "Are you crazy?  That’s not even possible.”  

    Taehyung looks at her.  He knows she is telling the truth. He mumbles to himself,   "Although you are quite smart, you are not in the top 1%……"

    Lisa is slightly offended.  He continues,  “If he is not trying to woo you, why would he insist that the assistant must be you?”

    Lisa is shocked: "What assistant?"

    Taehyung answers: “His assistant for the investigation, of course.”

    Lisa is slightly confused: “The case information needs to be translated into English?"
