Saturday, Taylor Hotel Restaurant. The restaurant for lunch on the weekend was full of people. Sitting alone at the table, Yeoreum drank coffee while waiting for someone who Would not come. There was a lot of tension on his face as he looked around.

you're talking like a smile You sit here, you get that expression. Yeoreum sharpened her teeth at Sang-hoon's voice, which came from the earphones hidden in her long hair. It was a disguised investigation that I had been doing like a meal after becoming a homicide detective. But it's a camouflage match. l'd rather have a fight with vicious criminals with knives. No matter how hard it was to catch the criminal, it was a difficult task for Yeoreum, who had never even been on a blind date. In addition, the playfulness hidden under the tense eyes of fellow detectives hiding throughout the hotel fanned the heart of Yeoreum, hoping that this time would pass quickly.

Choi Jin-wook was a heinous man who committed crimes such as fraud and molestation against the women he met through face-to-face encounters. I had to arrest him today, even if it was unfair to think of how hard he had worked for months to catch one. Yeoreum, who had gathered her heart, tightened her eyes and sat with her back straight. It was uncomfortable to wear a suit as it was a seat, and high heels that tightened the feet were like shackles instead of the sneakers I usually wear. The makeup that hid myself as if wearing a mask was very frustrating. But there was something that touched the planting of Yeoreum more than these external factors,

The first and last time Yeoreum came to this hotel restaurant was 15 years ago, on the day of my high school graduation. On an exceptionally cold day, Yeoreum celebrated her first step into adulthood with people other than her family. Where would that place be? Although it was winter, the sunlight coming in through the window was ferocious, and the eyes of those who were with me were warm enough to forget the loneliness. And the man who looked at her lovingly at the table. The conversation with him, the gazes we shared, the softness of the hands we held each other, and the warm first kiss. And everything from that day to and from heaven and hell in a matter of hours. It's been a long time, but it came to my mind as vividly as if it happened yesterday. Even if I try not to think about it, Yeoreum shakes her head, exhaling a small breath at the memories that she will never forget for the rest of her life.

Yeoreum was furious at Sang-hoon's sarcastic tone.

He was a man who had never met even a shadow for 15 years. And if possible, he was a man I never wanted to see, even if it was a coincidence. Therefore, the word "keep" was not appropriate. Yeoreum, who drove away personal thoughts, checked the watch on his wrist. The culprit, who had no manners, did not contact me even though 15 minutes had passed since the appointment time. Yeoreum looked around in the cool air. I didn't feel good. From a detective's point of view, if this pattern is... .. At that moment, the voice of an excited fellow detective came through the earphones.

Rough words leaked out between Yeoreum's lips. How much of my youth wasted trying to catch one. Besides, how much effort did you put in from morning to suit, makeup, and high heels?

Yeoreum got up in a hurry and started running with a sad expression on her face. *** Hasher took a seat in a cafe located in the center of the Taylor Hotel. After ordering coffee, I leaned my back on the chair and looked around naturally. As he glanced down, his gaze seemed indifferent, but his sharp eyes did not filter anyone and closely observed people. At the end of Haseo's gaze, a woman entered. A tall, well- dressed woman, with long hair hanging back, was crossing the hotel lobby with reckless strides. It was like a soldier who was determined to go out on the battlefield and fight fiercely. However, contrary to that promise, her gait stumbled a bit, probably because she was not used to high heels. The woman who looked around quickly went back to the table and sat down, pretending nothing was wrong. The tip of Haseo's lips, which had been facing each other, rose slightly. But he narrowed his brows at the voice he heard soon after.

It was news that the corners of his lips, which had risen languidly, would come down in an instant. Sadly, she was a woman who had nothing to do with her, But why did I suddenly feel uncomfortable? Was it because his emotions were biased for a moment at the appearance of someone resembling someone? Haseo, who raised his back heavily, concentrated his mind while erasing the afterimage of the past that intervened without notice. Choi Jin-wook was the right-hand man of the culprit Haseo has been chasing for several months. Like Hong Gi-dong, the perpetrators who carry out extensive fraud against companies and individuals flashed in the east and west. Choi Jin-wook's help was absolutely necessary to catch the criminal who did not even know where he was or his face. So, the fact that Choi Jin-wook is seeing each otherhere today, Ha-seo, put aside everything and ran directly.

Haseo's gaze, who didn't say anything negative about the investigator's question, naturally scanned the restaurant. it's a match It wasn't that he didn't have that opportunity. Rather, he wanted him to the point of overflowing from here and there. But the one who refused such a position was.. . . At that time, the orderly air that had split Haseo's thoughts was disturbed with a sharp scream.

It's not even Choi Jin-wook, but why is the opponent facing Choi Jin-wook's right arm?... ? Haseo moved quickly and got up from his seat. Then, faster than ever, he sprinted across the hotel lobby.

Yeoreum followed the man running across the crowd in the opposite direction. However, because of high heels, he could not achieve his usual speed, so he took off his shoes and held them in his hands. Then she rolled up her skirt to the top of her thigh, biting her lower lip, and started running. It was Yeoreum when he was good at all sports, but especially running was unmatched. A man has entered the range of Yeoreum. Just before the man's back touches his fingertips, 3! 2! One! Yeoreum, who lifted his body with a lot of force on the soles of his feet, stretched out his legs and kicked the man on the back hard.

With a painful moan, the man spread out on the hotel floor. Taking a rough breath, Yeoreum threw the shoe she was holding in her hand at the man.

The man resisted the coercive suppression of summer, crushing his body on the marble floor of the hotel. The force ripped her skirt, but Yeoreum didn't care.

The man groaned and rubbed his body persistently, then struck Yeoreum's chin with his elbow and ran away again. After uttering harsh words, Yeoreum turned to follow the man. And then, a large chair flew from the back of the Yeoreum and got tangled with the man's legs. The man, unable to move a few steps, screamed and fell to the floor. Yeoreum hurriedly ran and pressed her hand on the criminal's back, exhaling harshly. In the meantime, Sang-hoon, who quickly approached Yeor-eum, subdued the criminal.

However, Yeoreum's face, which had been excited by the heavy voice penetrating the eardrum, hardened in an instant. His fists, which had been filled with confidence just before, trembled like aspen trees. It had been a long time, long enough for her face to fade. But without looking back, I could tell exactly who was standing behind me. It was because my heart, which was faster than my pupils, made ascattered in the air and fell to the floor of the hotel. Park Ha Seo. it seemed as if all the moisture in the mouth had disappeared just by reliving the three letters of his name.

The back of my neck was sore. Even without looking back, I could feel those straight eyes that were straight towards me. And before I could even get rid of the entangled emotions, I could feel the strong scent of a man. Yeoreum, who had cleared her mind, turned her head gently. Dark eyes flowed down through the breath of Yeoreum. At the same time, something fell on my thigh.
