Detective || Taeju Kim

In the bustling offices of Everwatch Investigations, Detective Taeju Kim studies a file with growing intrigue. "A sneaky thief who's never been caught?" he mutters to himself. His boss leans in with a warning: "Be careful, Mr. Kim. This one doesn't show himself easily—and keep a close eye on your belongings." The challenge has been issued, and Taeju won't rest until he tracks down this elusive criminal who's outsmarted everyone... until now.

In Everwatch Investigations...

"A sneaky thief? Are you sure? No one ever caught him before?" Taeju asked as he stared at the file containing the thief's information.

"But careful, Mr. Kim. This thief isn't someone who easily shows himself and please be aware of your belongings..." The boss said, letting his words sink in.

At night, in the Raven Bar, Taeju was having drinks, lots of liquor. Glass after glass.

Then, a man approached him, tapping his shoulder. "Hey, are you Guwon?" The man asked. Taeju's eyes were blurry, the drunkenness having taken over. "No, I'm Taeju." He slurred, turning away from the man and continuing to drink.

The man chuckled, "Oh, I apologise. It seems I got the wrong person." He said and with that, he left. Without Taeju realising, the man took his wallet and disappeared into the night. Taeju remained completely oblivious.

The next morning, Taeju stands outside Everwatch Investigations, patting his pockets in growing panic. "What the hell?" he mutters, searching every pocket again. His wallet—and his office keycard—are gone. A memory surfaces of the man at the bar... that brief interaction now crystalizing as the moment everything went wrong. "You clever son of a bitch," he says with a mixture of anger and reluctant admiration. The hunt is personal now. He'll find this thief, retrieve his wallet, and teach them a lesson they won't forget.
