Bangchan, an orphan who adopted other children as his siblings, a family of his own choosing. However, this family harmony is on the verge of collapse when one by one the his siblings disappear for a purpose, creating a world where they can live in...
"So you are sure of your deductions?" Woojin asked while drinking his Latte, "I won't contact you if my deduction isn't correct," replied Bangchan, "What makes you feel that he is the serial killer?" Woojin asked, Bangchan was silent for a moment then drank his coffee, "You remember my ability right?" Bangchan asked, Woojin tilted his head then nodded when he remembered, "Several times I caught him do the murder, and unfortunately, I caught him killing Changbin and his partner," explained Bangchan. Woojin's eyes widened hearing Bangchan's explanation, "Changbin was killed by him?" Woojin asked in a whisper, Bangchan nodded then drank his coffee.
"But you're pretty calm about this," Woojin commented while eating his cake, Bangchan didn't reply. "But why did you contact me?" Woojin asked, considering he had nothing to do with them anymore.
Meanwhile, Hyunjin continued to watch their interactions from behind the counter. Hyunjin took a picture of the incident.
At the mansion, Lee Know who was still asleep felt movement, felt it was Jeongin, Lee Know immediately woke up and saw Jeongin. He couldn't contain his tears when he saw Jeongin had opened his eyes. "Hy... yung..." Jeongin said softly, without preamble, Lee Know immediately hugged Jeongin tightly, "Finally you wake up, Jeongin...." said Lee Know, Jeongin could feel Lee Know's tears running down behind his neck. "I'll make some food, you must be hungry, don't move too much, ok," said Lee Know while wiping away his tears, Jeongin nodded, Lee Know smiled and left Jeongin's room.
While walking to the kitchen, Lee Know received an incoming call on his cellphone, it was Hyunjin, but he didn't pick it up because for now the most important thing for him was Jeongin's recovery.
It was getting dark
Han and Seungmin had arrived at the place where Changbin had disappeared. An abandoned building on the outskirts of town.

"Oddinary Salon? Isn't this place....", "Yes, Hyunjin's salon, but it was closed for some reason," explained Han. "I don't remember why this place was closed," Seungmin said looking at the dilapidated building, "Honestly me too, as far as I remember Hyunjin never told us," Han replied, "but I remember he was really down when his salon closed," said Han.
Han and Seungmin started to enter the building, they turned on the flashlights they brought. The building really looked like it had been abandoned a long time ago, the room was damp, lots of peeling paint, ceilings with holes, a complete ruin.
They came to a staircase, "Shall we go up?" Seungmin asked the flashlight of the stairs, "I won't," said Han trying to step on the wooden stairs and it immediately shattered, they stared at each other then continued their search. "What are we looking here?" Seungmin asked starting to touch the items he saw, "Hint, whatever it is," Han answered. Seungmin was touching the former mannequin heads that was left there, until one of the mannequin heads turned and next to Seungmin a stair opened to the underground, "Em... I think I found one," Seungmin said calling Han, Han approached Seungmin, "Yeah, I think this is a hint," Han said looking at the stairs.
"Wow, you guys have arrived first," said a voice, surprised, they spontaneously looked back.
They saw someone's silhouette, "Woojin?" Han asked as Woojin was seen in front of them. They didn't lower their guard, "What are you doing here?" Seungmin asked coldly, "Just like you..." a voice appeared behind Woojin, "Woojin and I want to investigate about The Red Demon," said Bangchan emerging from the darkness. Seungmin and Han still haven't let their guard down, "Take it easy, I'll make sure he's clean," Bangchan said approaching them, At least that's what I think, Bangchan thought. "That's not our problem," said Seungmin, Bangchan tilted his head confused, "Why did you invite him?" Han asked pointing at Woojin, "Wow... nice to meet you too..." Woojin replied sarcastically, "Of all people, you chose to work with him?" Seungmin asked a little annoyed, Bangchan was silent for a while, "Unfortunately yes, for now, he's a pretty promising informant," Bangchan answered, "And you trust him?" Seungmin asked again, "Listen, I'm only carrying out the contract with him, after The Red Demon is caught, we will return to our separate ways," explained Bangchan.
Han and Seungmin looked at each other, "Okay, I will believe Chan, but if you leave us before your contract is finished, I will hunt you down," Han threatened while pointing at Woojin, while Woojin just smiled.
"I see you guys have found a secret staircase," said Woojin approaching the stairs leading to the underground, "Shall we explore it?" Woojin asked. Han and Seungmin stared at each other, while Bangchan went straight down the stairs. Seeing their leader take action himself, they immediately followed with Woojin in the back.
The underground passage they walked through was only dimly lit and downright uncomfortable, the air was damp, it smelt rotten, and for some reason, the floor they stepped on was soft and smooth, and the wall paint looked like it was made of blood smeared carelessly. . "This place is...", "Disgusting," Seungmin continued.
Bangchan suddenly stopped, "What's wrong Chan?" Han asked seeing Bangchan stop walking. Bangchan pointed to the path in front of him, he saw a light that was brighter than the previous lights in the passage. Bangchan turned towards Han, Han nodded, they then headed towards the light. The light source came from a fairly large room, the room contained photos of the victims of The Red Demon, "We found the bear's lair," Bangchan said looking at the photos. "Chan, Han," Seungmin called from the side of the room, Bangchan and Han approached him. Seungmin pointed at the wall in front of him, their eyes widened when they saw a photo of them and other Stray Kids members next to each other's pendants, Felix and Changbin's photos had been crossed out with a red X.
"What th—" Han's words were cut off when suddenly he felt something stab in his neck, it was a needle, Han instantly fell unconscious, "Han—" Seungmin followed Han unconscious. However, Bangchan managed caught the needle that was about to stab his neck with his two fingers, he saw the needle, "As I thought, you're hard to drop," said a voice behind him, Bangchan suddenly turned around. Just a split second he turned around, hundreds of needles stabbed Bangchan's back, making him immediately fell on his stomach, "Sh–shit," he said before losing his consciousness completely.
Meanwhile, at the mansion, Lee Know is accompanying Jeongin who is eating. "How do you feel?" Asked Lee Know to break the silence between them, "I'm getting better, but maybe still a little weak," answered Jeongin, Lee Know smiled relieved to hear that.
Suddenly Lee Know's cell phone vibrated, there was an incoming message. Lee Know frowned when he saw the message, a message from Hyunjin, he sent a photo of Bangchan and Woojin chatting in his cafe, "Woojin?" Lee Know muttered looking at the picture, "What's wrong hyung?" Jeongin asked hearing Lee Know's murmur, "Hm? No, Hyunjin sent me a photo," replied Lee Know, looking back at his cell phone. Hearing Hyunjin's name, Jeongin immediately dropped his cutlery, he held his head, his breath immediately rushed. Seeing Jeongin's state, which looked like he was having a panic attack, Lee Know immediately took off his cell phone and approached Jeongin.
"Jeongin, what's wrong?!" asked Lee Know panicked. "Hey hey, look at me, look at me Jeongin," said Lee Know holding both hands of Jeongin, Jeongin complied, although his breath was still ragged. "Breathe calmly," said Lee Know while guiding Jeongin to breathe calmly. "What is it? Why do you panic when you hear Hyunjin's name?" Asked Lee Know after Jeongin managed to calm down, "Be–because... Hy–Hy–Hyunjin the one who... attacked me...." Jeongin answered stammered.
