So, with no doubt, she answered his question about her plans after growing a little bigger. She wished to leave the mansion for her dream of becoming a merchant. “Yes, that plan. I’ll help you, too. After all, I have more access to information than you do. Will it be of help to you?” “What? But… won’t you be in trouble?” “It’s okay.” Ritter said forcefully to Beatty who was hesitating. “Actually, I have always felt sorry for you.” “Me?” “Yes. I want…-

A heavy silence fell between them despite the man's polite greeting. It was understandable. Because of him, Seo-ha had been dragged to the disciplinary room and only released after re-education. And though she wasn't entirely sure, he must have suffered some consequences too. She no longer cared whether he got involved with Park Hee-jung or not. Even if they both ended up dead in plastic bags, it wouldn't be her responsibility. It would be the fault of people driven mad by their carnal…-

The corpse, neatly packaged in a drum like a gift box, would now be sinking to the depths of the ocean. Tae-beom's eyes grew distant as he drove along the empty coastal road. A mild headache and dizziness crept over him. The scent of blood still lingered in his nostrils, as if he were still inside that container. It must have seeped into his clothes, his skin. He couldn't shake the image of that young detective's eyes from his mind. Such an innocent face for someone who had acted so…

Thunder echoed through the sealed workshop at the harbor, but it wasn't thunder at all - it was the stench of blood. The regulars seemed immune to it, their senses long dulled, but Tae-beom could barely keep his empty stomach from heaving. The metallic scent pierced his nostrils like needles. Ironically, the one creating this nauseating smell was none other than himself. The man whose hair was gripped in Tae-beom's black leather gloves was barely conscious. His features were unrecognizable beneath…

Seo-ha had often wondered throughout her life. If someone were to ask whether she truly believed in God, what would she say? The words that would actually leave her lips would undoubtedly mimic those of a proper pastor's daughter, but if she were to be honest with herself, the story would be quite different. She believed because she had to believe, because she wanted to believe. To Moon Seok-ho, Seo-ha was his special daughter. In many ways, she enjoyed more privileges than even her younger…

But doing that would kill not just the man, but Park Hee-jung as well. The memory was still vivid in Seo-ha's mind - that other 'aunt' who was caught by her father being intimate with a man she had brought into the house. That woman whose hands were tied and whose mouth were blocked with a piece cloth couldn't even scream when she saw a transparent plastic laid out in the same room where she had an affair. It was as if she knew that plastic would be her coffin. Seo-ha remembered how that woman was…

Never mess with a detective. It was an unwritten rule that even the most heinous criminals avoided targeting government officials. This was especially true for those involved in organized crime—challenging the entire police force would only paint an unwanted target on their backs. However, if you already had connections with high-ranking officials, disposing of one or two small tiers of the pyramid below you wouldn't matter much. Particularly when those small tiers were investigating cases that…

Chapter 1: Janus The king has brought me into his chambers. Draw me in and we will run after thee; Let us be glad and rejoice in thee; Let us remember thy love more than wine. It is fitting that the maidens should love thee. — Song of Solomon 1:4 Seo-ha had once heard the moans of a woman barely five years older than herself. The woman who played the role of mistress of the house—though legally unrelated to Seo-ha—was someone she awkwardly called "Auntie" for lack of a better…
