ONE: taking the case
it was now closing time for mrs. jung's café. it has been a busy day — costumers kept coming in and out like busy bees because, after all, it was a weekday and people craved her coffee's to boost up their energies either to start off their day or even after a long and tiring day. but nonetheless, she was glad to share her caffeine to other citizens.
as she switched the open sign to close, she walked over to behind the counter, which only staff is allowed going to, to gather her belongings as she was now on her way home.
she slipped on her jacket as it was slightly chilly now that it was night time, and grabbed her purse and was headed out.
as she approached the door of her café, she heard a subtle sound coming from behind her causing her to turn around swiftly. all of her employee's went home and she doubt there weren't any animals who managed to enter her café. her eyes scanned the whole café but seem to see nothing out of the ordinary, from what she saw at least. mrs. jung shrugs and was about to open the door until it was forcefully shut causing her to flinch. mrs. jung looks up slowly to see someone's hand pressed up against the door and her eyes grew wide. her frail heart began to thump against her chest rapidly as she slowly turned around to see a masked man towering over her; now letting out a high pitched scream before they were muffled.

"there has yet been another killing of a local citizen in goyang city. there are still no suspects or leads. the police are currently undergoing investigation for this horrible crime. stay tuned for further news."
jaebum sighed deeply as he turned off the television in his office. he buried his face in the palm of his hands as the news of another death has been released. this has been the tenth killing since last month and there hasn't been any suspects or leads. however, every killing that has happened so far has been confirmed to be all connected. the killings have been done by the same person — a person that is very good at its job.
"jaebum." there was a knock on his door making jaebum look up and towards the incomer. it was his boss; park chul. park chul was a chubby man with little to nothing hair left on his head — the light reflected off of the skin of his head making his bald head shine. his belly stuck out and he wore suspenders. he usually wore button up shirts which were usually tucked in his brown khaki pants. he even had a little stache growing in.
"i'm giving you the job to solve these killings. none of the detectives i've given the job to had solved the case— those pathetic jerks. can't even get a single piece of clue and they're considered the best detectives in goyang. you're the best in the business so i'm handing over the job to you."
