Walking on the parking lot on the way to Jihyo's car, Jihyo stopped walking and looked at her

"I think the Chief knows about your identity, you gotta be careful and move fast before he decides to arrest you. And I think the reason why he included you to the team is to trap you" Jihyo said

"Hmm.." she hums

"What do you plan from now on?" Jihyo asked

"My plan? Why should I plan when I could just move whenever I want?" She chuckles

"You have to, it's unusual that you don't have a concrete plan. Because as days goes by, more people will get to know your true identity more and more" Jihyo said

"You knew.. What are you waiting for? Shouldn't you be running to the police by now?"

"I believe that you will do the right thing, I know you won't fail me. Once we caught the copycat, that's when you'll surrender"

"And why would I do that?" She chuckles

"Yah, you promised me earlier. You wanted this new life with me and Tzuyu, why are you suddenly twisting your words? This isn't funny, Stop joking around, Y/n" Jihyo said with a straight face

"Park Jihyo, you're one curious cat aren't you? But unfortunately, curiosity killed the cat" Her smile faded that made Jihyo frightened by looking at her with dead and emotionless eyes

"What do you mean?" Jihyo tried to laugh it off but her fear weights more, she's gonna go for a run but she tightly grabbed both of her arm

"You know too much now, Park Jihyo. It's time for you to die because I can't complete this if there are disturbance getting in the way"

"Y/n, let go-"

"It's a shame that you have to go, you were quite useful. If only you weren't sticking up your nose to the things you shouldn't be worrying about" She laughs

Next day ...

Chaeyoung just got released but is under surveillance. Ryujin is outside waiting for her, they get inside the car and drove away

"It's been a while, boss"

"Have you got the footage that the police got?" Chaeyoung asked, Ryujin nods then handed the phone to her

Chaeyoung clicked the video to play seeing a man run away from the crime of the scene

"He's the one who witnessed Hyunseok being killed? And he swore that he saw Jeon Mirae?"

"Yes, boss. He knows exactly what Jeon Mirae looked like because they know each other personally and he's a witness. We could prove that Jeon Mirae is really alive" Ryujin said

"It's a shame I let his friend escape. I wonder if his friend have told the news that I'm hunting Myungsoo down" Chaeyoung chuckles

Meanwhile ...

Y/n gets inside the office but only Jeongyeon was there

"Where are the others?" Y/n asked

"They went to the crime scenes to reinvestigate" Jeongyeon said

"Why would they?" Y/n asked

"Jisoo didn't tell you? Well, that was funny" Jeongyeon laughs

"We got new witness or maybe another suspect named Kim Myungsoo, lucky is on our side" Jeongyeon said, Y/n nods

"By the way, when you guys went to Jeon's old house.. did you guys find anything there?" Y/n asked, Jeongyeon shook her head

"What we found was ashes, someone burned the whole house hours before we arrived there. As if someone is listening to our conversations and there's a spy. Now I think Jeon Mirae is still alive, Chaeyoung said it herself. Do you think she is?" Jeongyeon asked
