The Past That Will Never Be Forgotten

Jeongyeon left the office and shortly after that Mr. Jinyoung joins the chief officers to have a talk together.

As soon as Mr. Jinyoung set a foot inside the chief office, they exchange a salute that's full with complete respect. Then they gave a meaningful hug to each other after that. "It's been a while since we meet Jinyoung," the chief starts the conversation while sitting back in his seat while Jinyoung facing him. "Indeed it's been a while, I would be lying if I said that I haven't missed this place," Jinyoung said while taking a quick glance around the office before he continues his talk. "Going back to the main reason I am here, where you able to find someone that could help Ms. Son?"

"Yeah, it hasn't been long since I informed one of my best officer here to go start the mission right away. And I know for sure after reading the case, she will do more than her best to assure the target safety." while the chief words are full of confidence and assurance, Jinyoung couldn't help but ask, "what makes you say that?"

A smile crawled on the chief face upon hearing the question. He moved his hand searching between his folders on the desk. Then he pulled a file and handed it to Jinyoung. "Try taking a look at this file. It contains all the information about the officer in charge." The chief fold his hands watching him carefully looking at the papers then he added by saying "doesn't this name ring something into your head?" It didn't take long for Jinyoung to figure whom the chief is talking about and immediately his eyes widened upon his discovery. "Yoo Jeongeon! How is she part of this department? Since when?"

The chief signed trying to compose himself to start talking. "I know what you are thinking. She joined us two years ago exactly, not long ago after your last case. And she's been doing great until now and even more than what we expect her to do. Even though I am concerned about her condition and excessive works that she puts upon herself, but that exactly what makes me choose her over anyone else. Added to that her past incident that happened to her friend two years ago." Jinyoung was listening carefully to his explanation. "Also, putting that aside, I am still working with my team on this case, and we have already predicted this to happen to Ms. Son, though we didn't expect it to occur too soon. But that only helps us catch them earlier than expected. Everything is working according to our plan, so rest assured our team will be ready to handle any sudden events along the way."

Even though those words that the chief said were meant to ease Jinyoung mind, but it seems that it only makes him more worried than he actually is. Then he decided to speak his mind. "You know... I don't want the history to repeat itself again like two years ago." The chief eyes soften with the mention of that incident. "I want to make sure to capture those people before they could make any further harm. I have failed once to do my duty and I won't allow it to happen again." The chief couldn't say anything regarding his last statement because he's already aware of what happened for his last mission.

Mr. Jinyoung had a Law Office and he used to work in the special forces as chief as well before. He used to manage his jobs perfectly without it affecting his performance in either of them. But because of all the pressure, he was putting on himself, he ended up losing his focus and resulting in the target death at unexpected night. It was actually a mistake done by both sides out of ignorance. Because of that incident, he left his position in the forces and decide to focus his mind as a lawyer to forgot his failer that he has done once two years ago. While his right-hand officer took charge after him.

Those two years flew by and he never forgot that mission ever. And now that he's witnessing another mess in the way of one of the most important clients he ever served for, he won't allow the history to repeat itself and will make sure to catch whoever is behind it.

Then Jinyoung couldn't help but ask, "how is our bunny doing? I haven't heard about her in a long time. Is she still not remembering what happened?" The chief expression softens upon his question, "she's doing great. Actually, she's going back to school to finish her studies." Even though this is a good news, but Jinyoung couldn't help but feel a bit concern. "Isn't it dangerous to leave her out alone in the public like that, what if they found her again?"
