Ji Hu sat in front of the tablet that Ms. Shin brought with her. Ji Hu had asked to see the security footage from the day of Madam Ju's murder. Ji Hu wanted to see if anyone went into her office or what she was doing during that time. Ji Hu clicked on the security footage, waiting for it to load up. Gu Won stood behind her, "What's this?" He asked.

"Madam Ju died from a drug allergy on the day she ordered an audit team. Since her medicine was in her bag, the cameras must've caught someone tampering with it." Ji Hu said.

Ji Hu looked over the dozens of files.

"It'll take forever to go through all these." Gu Won commented. Ji Hu already thought through that. "Good luck." She reached out, grabbing Gu Won's arm before he left her office.

"Tell me you didn't forget." Ji Hu looked at Gu Won. "We're in the same boat."

Gu Won nodded once before going to dart off. Ji Hu grabbed the back of his jacket, yanking him towards her. She turned the chair so Gu Won sat on the chair. Ji Hu looked at Gu Won, holding up her wrist. "Now, you can recharge." Gu Won made a face before he did as she wanted.

The blinds folded downward with a simple snap of his fingers.

Gu Won and Ji Hu watched the footage on both computers. Ji Hu was starting to get annoyed with how much they had to watch while Gu Won was pissed that he was dealing with this shit. "Start with the most recent ones so that we don't check the same ones twice." Ji Hu told Gu Won as he sat on his knees in front of her main computer.

"Am I a bodyguard or a private detective?" Gu Won asked.

"Oh, I have a private detective." Gu Won glanced in her direction. "I use him for other matters, however. Mainly tailing my sister." Ji Hu commented.

"You're asking too much of me." Gu Won let out a gasp before lowering his head to arms. "My eyes are burning."

"Big baby."

"This is too primitive. Let's find another way." Gu Won said as he lifted his head up.

"And that would be?" Ji Hu asked.

"I could find the guy who was after you with my powers." Gu Won said.

Ji Hu stopped what she was doing, turning in the chair to look at him. Her arms crossed against her chest. "That's possible?"

"Of course."

Ji Hu grew angry. "And you are just telling me this now?" She asked.

"You never asked."

Ji Hu's hands went out, stopping in front of Gu Won. Her hands made fists, lowering to her lap to try to keep her anger at bay. Ji Hu sighed, looking away from Gu Won. "What have we been doing this entire time then? We can also find out who's behind him. Problem solved." Ji Hu instantly held out her wrist for Gu Won to take. "Let's catch him right now."

"Okay," Well, that was easier than Ji Hu thought. Gu Won went to hold her wrist but stopped himself. Ji Hu knew it was too good to be true. "Hold on a second. Promise me one thing first."

"What?"

"You won't need me once we catch the culprit, but I'll still need you. It's obvious how your attitude will change." Gu Won said.

Ji Hu chuckled. "Oh, am I that transparent?" She asked. "Don't you trust me?"

"No."

"You answered that faster than when I proposed. Damn." Ji Hu sunk into the chair, tapping her nails against the arms of the chair. "Fine, I will help you get your tattoo back even after we catch the culprit." Ji Hu held out her wrist again. "Is that good enough for you?" She asked.
