Chapter 17 —Teacher. This is Ji-hoon. Chang-shin was caught somewhat off guard by the phone call he received as soon as he got out of his car. Ji-hoon said there was something he wanted to discuss with him. —Are you free tomorrow? I'll come to your school. “Could you tell me what this is about first?

Chapter 27 Coffee Is Just Coffee, But It's Way Too Strong It's Real? Outside the café, on a coastal road wrapped in the cold night air. Nari and Ra-yoon stood on either side of Investigator Choi, pressuring him from both sides. “What exactly are you two doing? Why are you in Jeju Island…?” “Shut up.

Chapter 31 Jin Jie’s face had gone pale. As he looked at Yun Sook-eum’s gentle smile, a bone-deep chill spread through his entire body. Yun Sook-eum tilted her head slightly and smiled.
