The Undercover Detectives- Operation: Showbiz
Prologue- Detectives Secret Hideout
At night, the detectives hideout looks like this:
There are many high-quality, expensive guns and advanced gadgets they need for their operations. The place is filled with shiny and valuable equipment. It also has a laboratory where they can conduct DNA tests on the evidence they collect. They work in secret so that no one will know about their mission or be aware of their movements.
Zeandrix
A-Are you sure? Is there really no other way?
Elara
Yes, this is the only way left. Be strong, Zeandrix!
Zeandrix
Do we really have to enter the world of showbiz just for this operation?
Elara
I can’t think of any other way to find out who this criminal celebrity really is. This is our only option. Tomorrow, both of us will take on new identities!
Zeandrix
W-Well, uh, just don’t give me a difficult role, okay?!😭
Elara
I can’t promise that😏
Zeandrix
No, don’t joke around like that, okay?🤨
Okay, before that, let me introduce myself. I’m Zarlie, the author of this story. First, I’d like to introduce our two main characters, Elara and Zeandrix, before we continue with the story.
Zeandrix is an anime-inspired character based on Sunghoon, and Elara is an anime-inspired character based on IU. However, the personalities, dialogues, events, and story elements I created for them are entirely fictional and products of my imagination. Any similarities to real people, events, or situations are purely coincidental and are not intended to represent real life. This story is a work of fiction and does not depict actual events.
Now, let’s move on to the first episode of my work. On the next page, the exciting journey begins! Thank you for viewing and reading my prologue. Now, let’s dive into the thrilling part where the undercover detectives enter the world of showbiz.😎🔍✨
The start
Zeandrix
Code Name:
shadow
Reminder: their clothing and style will change once they enter showbiz.
Zeandrix
Phoenix, by the way, you mentioned my real name earlier. Then you said that entering the showbiz industry is our only way to carry out this operation. Don’t forget even if we’ve just returned from vacation, we’re still detectives
Elara
HAHA, Shadow, calm down. We’re in the hideout anyway
Zeandrix
Phoenix, what’s our lead on the crime happening in showbiz right now?
Elara
About that, tonight’s news will be our lead
Zeandrix
What’s that supposed to mean?
Elara
Let’s just watch the news first, Shadow, and I’ll explain it to you
Zeandrix
Okay, I will turn on the TV
TV: Breaking news: a celebrity was found in a garbage area, tied up and lifeless.
Zeandrix
Oh, that’s horrifying. I mean, Phoenix, do you think joining might not be our best choice? What if we end up like that?!
Elara
Stop that nonsense, Shadow. We are detectives, and we should get used to cases like that
Zeandrix
Haist, I miss the times when our cases were just about finding lost dogs and cats, back when we were just starting as detectives.
Elara
Okay, now shut up and listen to the news already
Mr.Aguilar
The victim is a famous actor known as a comedian in a movie titled If the World Is Happy, Then We Are Happy Too. A horrific crime happened behind the building where they were filming yesterday!
Ms. Ortilano
Yes, that’s right, partner. I’m here now at the Starlight Nexus Entertainment company, where the police are investigating how this happened
Ms. Ortilano
Oh no! What’s happening these days is really scary, right partner? What will happen next? Will there be new incidents tomorrow again? Will it be like this every day now, with bloodshed among celebrities? What will happen to our showbiz hearts? How can we still watch shows with excitement, smiles, and happiness on our faces?
Mr.Aguilar
I hope that criminal is finally stopped and put in jail. Alright, let’s stop the talk for now, partner. This has been TV Alert News, bringing only true news to everyone. See you again tomorrow, fellow citizens.
Ms. Ortilano
This is TV Alert News, always alert to what is happening. A reminder to stay safe, everyone, and have a good evening.
Ms. Smith and Mr. Aguilar:
“We will be back tomorrow on TV Alert News!”
End of news
Elara
We now have three clues
Elara
Clue 1: The last target was a well-known actor who is a comedian. He is quite famous.
Elara
Clue 2: His body was discovered behind the building where the incident took place.
Elara
Clue 3: The building is called Starlight Nexus Entertainment, and it is possible that he worked there.
Zeandrix
Hmm, interesting. Do you think a fellow actor could be the one who did that to him?
Elara
That’s for us to find out
Elara
But now, we will start changing our identities. Let’s start the makeover of ourselves.
Zeandrix
Wait, aren’t we just going to wear new masks so our real faces won’t be recognized?
Elara
No. Not anymore. This time, we take the risk,we show our real faces. We step into the light and fight for the justice that showbiz demands for those who were killed.
Zeandrix
Right, yeah after the makeover, we’ll just go audition at Starlight Nexus Entertainment 😆
Elara
Thanks for that nice idea, Shadow
Veloria Luxe Mall
Veloria Luxe Mall, a hidden shopping destination in the city where only the wealthy could afford to shop. It was filled with luxurious casual and formal clothing for both men and women.
Zeandrix
Wow, it’s so beautiful. How did you know about this place, Phoenix?
Elara
I know someone, one of our intel, and he owns this place, so we can get the clothes for free since he’s on our team.
Zeandrix
Wow, I’m really amazed by your ability. No wonder you’re the Phoenix
Elara
Right, yeah, whatever
Elara
Hey, servant of Veloria Luxe Mall, I want you to change my friend’s look or should I just say, make him look good and give him a nice makeover?
Elara
First, let him wear his contact lenses and remove his eyeglasses
Daria
Yes, ma’am. At your service!
Zeandrix
Hey, Phoenix, watch your mouth. I am already good-looking, my mother said so😏
Elara
I am not hearing anything
Daria
Excuse me, sir. Can we start?
Zeandrix
Okay, let’s do this
Daria
Okay, sir, I’m done with your little touch-up on your face, and I’ve also done your hairstyle. I want you to wear these clothes inside the fitting room
Daria
Now Mr. Shadow is in the fitting room. It’s your turn, Ms. Phoenix. I will give you a makeover
Daria
Okay, let’s start with your hairstyle before the makeup. I think we should let your hair down for a fresh new look
Elara
I’m fine. Do whatever you think is good
Shadow has already come out of the fitting room.
Zeandrix
Uhm, hey girls? I think this isn’t really me.
Daria
You look good, Mr. Shadow. It suits you well. I give you a 10/10😍🥰
Elara
Ah, well, you look like a human being now.
Zeandrix
I think I feel very confident and handsome now😌
Daria
Ms. Phoenix, please go to the fitting room and try these on
Zeandrix
I think your arrogance has lessened a bit. You now look like an angel
Daria
You look gorgeous, Ms. Phoenix😍✨
Phoenix tapped Shadow on the head
Zeandrix
Ouch, that hurts
