It is a difficult case to find even in Korea.

"That's why. Now I understand."

"Hey, Superman! The amateur!"

Jong-hyuk ignored and opened his mouth.

to have no time

As soon as the order is given, bang bang.

Even if we delay, Derek, who is cornered, can shoot the hostage.

"Milli, can you put up the CCTV footage of the bank again?"

Frustrated, Millie saw Callie.

Callie was looking at Jong-hyuk.

"Hurry! We don't have time!"

What the hell are you doing?….' But the eyes are so desperate.

He has no ulterior motive, and he is trying to save someone somehow.

A look so familiar to her.

This is the eyes of the police who want to make even one less victim.

Callie nodded, and eventually CCTV footage was played on Projection TV.

A silent gunshot rang again.

Then

"Stop!"

Jong-hyuk points to Daisy, who gets his gun taken from him in a jittery mood.

"Can't you see?!"

"……?"

"Nimmy! Show me the video before you go into the cafe!"

The projection screen has been divided.

In the part where Daisy, who was embarrassed by the crowd of police, opened the door and entered while turning the gun around, Jong-hyuk shouted, "Stop."

He saw Callie.

"Don't you understand?"

"……?"

"You don't shoot! Guns!

"……?!"

"Daisy hasn't shot a single one so far! Show me the CCTV at the mart and jewelry shop!"

Millie hurriedly opened CCTV footage of the incident six days ago and yesterday.

"Look!"

"……Huh?"

Callie and her agents' faces change rapidly.

Take out your neck and look at the four images.

Then you realize it's true.

Sir?

"Now, wait a minute!"

Callie saw Jong-hyuk.

Her eyes shake with conflict.

"Can you elaborate?"

"I will."

Jong-hyuk stepped forward and pointed to the videos.

"Daisy is not active in all of these videos or anywhere else. Whenever Derek says something, it moves. It's only time to hesitate and rush."

It's passive everywhere.

That's what she looks like, too.

"But with that!"

He's obsessed with Derek, but he's afraid of committing a crime, so he can move passively.

Jong-hyuk points to Daisy's profile.

"It's neat as ever."

He has no history of drinking and causing trouble or running away from home.

Neat.

"Huh? That school?"

Millie is surprised.

"Do you know this place?"

"Yes, it's a pretty famous private school."

"That's great. Please improve Daisy's grades at school."

"Yes, yes!"

Millie quickly called Daisy's school and shouted to send her report card via e-mail.

After a while, Daisy's grades appeared on TV, and Jong-hyuk nodded.

"As expected."

Callie was surprised, too.

The grades are A, but only friends.

"In the dance club, she likes people and she likes to be dynamic enough to volunteer weekend. Oh, I got a warning while singing with my friends at school."

Of course, such data alone cannot determine what Daisy is like.

However, it was strange for anyone to see that an extremely ordinary girl suddenly turned into a robber.

"Give me a file on Derek's rape case."

Run, run!

"……!"

People were surprised.

It's not a typical rape case.

It was a relationship, but the victim couldn't beat Derek's assault and reported it as rape.

It was an event where I could understand at once what kind of person Derek was.

Callie raised one possibility while shaking her head convincingly.

"But it could be Stockholm."

Stockholm syndrome.

It is a mental illness that is influenced by the unfortunate family history of the criminal who is causing harm to him, misunderstanding that he loves her and obsessing over her.

"It's not right for this situation. That's Gaslight Effect."

"…gaslighting?"

There are too many gaslight effect cases.

One of them is domestic violence.

Wife or husband.

The head of the family wields his will with the authority and violence of the head of the family.

"Not kidnapping?"

Professor Lim Sung-won said, "Jong-hyuk shook his head.

He was also thinking of Stockholm syndrome, most of which happen in extreme situations such as hostages and kidnappings.

"At first, I would have followed on my own feet. The last place I saw him...… It's diner."

Diners.

In Korea, it is like a 24-hour cafe. Selling all the food, drinks, and alcohol.

It's a love room that people of all ages and sexes of all ages.

"There's testimony that you had a pleasant conversation with a man. My friend drank a bottle of beer and went back first."

This is why he is reported missing, presumed to be running away from home.

"……."

"What if the guy was Derek, and he followed suit at first? What if you had a good night, but things went wrong there and you got locked up? What if Derek started liking Daisy?"

"……."

"Probably, Derek would have coaxed, shrieked and slowly colored his own color."

It has been reported missing for seven months.

It's possible enough.

"Maybe he threatened to mention something precious. As time goes by, Daisy may have been exhausted, but when a person is threatened, even if he or she is frightened, there is a slight backlash. As a decisive proof...…."

Jong-hyuk asked me to show him CCTV at the mart.

"That part. Can you see it?"

He's flipping his hand around below his waist.

It's a signal.

It could be taken care of, but when I heard what Jong-hyuk said, it was a rescue signal.

"That's ridiculous.…."

Silence fell again in the office.

They stared blankly at Jong-hyuk.

It's plausible.

It's so plausible that it's true.

No, this is the truth.

Rarely, there have been a few incidents like this.

Callie opened her mouth.

"Shooting team?"

- Wait for the command.

"Just shoot a man."

-……Yes sir.

To-doo!

A teenage girl's long-standing nightmare also awoke, breaking the window with the sound of a sniper team's firing.

* * *

It's a shame and a relief, but Derek isn't dead.

The bullet moved away from the heart.

"Whew!"

FBI investigation office.

After completing the investigation in a space surrounded by cement, Daisy, a girl, rushed to her gray-haired parents and poured out her fear and sorrow.

"Oh, Daisy. My princess."

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry! I'll never talk to a man again!"

"No, my princess. You didn't do anything wrong."

Jong-hyuk asked for a cigarette of relief at the reunion of his father and daughter.

"Whoa, this is a damn case by case.…."

The depths of evil that have fallen into the aberration of the moment.

Every time I see this kind of incident, I feel frustrated.

I couldn't protect you first.

Professor Lim Sung-won nodded as if he agreed and burst into a blank smile. Jack Wilder, who did not understand Korean, tilted his head to his side.

"You sound like a veteran detective? Just a detective, why?"

"Hahaha."

"I……."

Daisy, who approached, bent down.

"Thank you! You saved my life! I heard everything from the agent over there! I almost died, Lord."

Her face turns blue when she says so.

Oh, my God, this lady. Did you say you almost got shot by the victim?’

As a class president, I thought he was so tactless.

Don't raise your thumb!

I wondered if this was American culture.

"No, it was obvious. Did the mart send a rescue signal?"

Daisy opened her eyes wide.

"Did you, uh, see that?"

Tears well up in clear green eyes.

Fired up!

Of course!

Jong-hyuk let out a sigh of relief inside and completely relaxed.

She was right to be dragged around.

'That's a relief.'

Her words and expressions proved that Jong-hyuk himself was right.

Frankly, I deduced, but I wasn't 100 percent sure.

What if, even if you were passive, you had a 0.01 percent willingness to participate in a crime?

Daisy had to be punished, too.

Of course, it is the same that you should be punished even if you don't

A man is dead.

I can't help it.

The difference is that there is more room for commutation than when it was arbitrary.

"Oh, really. Good job. Good job."’

She's been dragged around, and she's the one who deduced.

Good work, everyone.

Daisy's parents held such Jong-hyuk's hand tightly.

"Thank you so much for saving my youngest daughter."

"If Daisy is wrong...…Hum!"

"I really don't know how to repay this favor."

"No, I just did what I deserved."

"Huh." Daisy's father burst into admiration at Jong-hyuk's clear, deep eyes.

"As expected, Superman……."

"What?"

"I'll make sure to pay you back soon. I'm out of my mind today.…."

"Oh, yes. Of course."

It was the day he saved his daughter, who was missing for seven months and almost died in a crime. She's the youngest daughter who doesn't hurt.

"Come back home and comfort Daisy. Please calm down."

Daisy has to go to jail tomorrow.

Even if you have a guardian and you don't have the will to run away, you can't help it because it's a robbery case.

Today's homecoming is the FBI's consideration.

The FBI will wait in front of Daisy's house and take her to jail tomorrow.

"……Thank you. Of course."

"Yes, yes, goodbye, Daisy. Don't meet men recklessly from now on.

"I won't!"

Jong-hyuk turned off his cigarette watching them happy as they moved away.

What do you mean. That's the reward.’

The biggest reward for the detective was the smiling face of the victim.

By the way, do you know Captain Callie?’

Superman is what Chief Callie said.

Seeing that he didn't recognize his daughter, he seemed to know each other's names only.

Clack clack.

Callie Grace is approaching.

She still has a questionable face.

"How the hell did you know this?"

There have been very few similar cases in the past decade.

There are many cases in Stockholm, but 10 cases of crime after confinement and gaslighting. It's a very rare case.

"Are you a criminologist? No, do I look young? Master?"

"That's him, and as I said before, I'm a candidate for a police officer."

"Not a cop, a cadet? Oh, God."

"I'm here to see a forum on state-of-the-art criminal investigation techniques in New York."

"Are you representing Korea?"

Then it makes sense.

Genius. He is the one who will lead the future Korean police.

"No, I'm just looking...… haha."

"What? You don't even give a presentation?"

I want to do it, but Korea is not as tough as America.

"I have an announcement to make in the forum. A student like me can't even make a presentation."

Callie's eyes are on Professor Lim Sung-won.

Then your eyes are asking if you're going to present.

"There are many criminology professors better than me in Korea. Haha."

Professors from other universities who studied there from the beginning.

They are the dominant figures in academia.

Compared to them, Professor Lim Sung-won's name value is inevitably drooping.

The reason why I participated in the forum is because I was not invited for the same reason.

Visits are allowed to all concerned, but presentations and questions are only available to those invited.

"No way. How can people like you...…."

When former professor Lim Sung-won suggested his opinion on the kidnapping earlier, Callie also felt guilty.

Because she thought of the same thing.

"Well, we're working in different areas. Hahaha."

Professor Jong-hyuk and Professor Lim Sung-won, who said so, were a little bitter.

It's a lie if you didn't envy the professors who were presenting confidently.

I envied the fact that I could see a new perspective by answering questions with other intellectuals, not presentations.

Still, I got meaningful data, so I had enough income.

Even more so because you saved innocent lives today.

"But next time!"

'Well, if I may, I wonder if there's a rare enough event to be presented to the forum.’

Professor Lim Sung-won and Jong-hyuk were smacking their lips.

Seeing them both, Callie squinted her eyes.

It is a situation that can be understood immediately even if it has not been explained.

I'm sure you're losing out on the order.’

She also knows about Korea's police university. Because I sometimes exchange with American police schools.

It teaches and learns many things, but focuses more on fostering executives than academic work.

Teaching case solving is a priority rather than discussing or discussing.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the influence on academia is small.

The U.S. has a strong tendency to do so.

When you go to places like forums, most professors confirm the case only in writing, not in the field officials.

Professors at top universities such as Ivy League.

It is a pity that such talented people cannot stand out, and it is a pity that they only go back after looking around without any income.

I also want to scout.

Jong-hyuk을.

You're not, are you?

She shone her eyes.

There is a way to repay the favor I received today.

Connection as head of the FBI's New York bureau.

"Mr. Choi. Mr. Lim."

Jong-hyuk tilted his head to his side.

"Don't you want to make a presentation with this case?"

"What?"

Jong-hyuk looked at Callie Grace as if she were talking nonsense.
