Coincidence

Shawn visited the Health Minister's mansion to investigate the case. The assistant officers Jihan and Chen ware standing beside him.

Chen looked at Shawn who was observing the whole room, "Sir. This case seems too uncommon. How could they set everything so perfectly? I think we should investigate the caretakers and bodyguards first." 

Shawn gave him a look which could tell them that he was very annoyed because of them.

Jihan hit Chen on his shoulder. "They informed us first." 

Chen creased his forehead, "Sir, don't you think they help that gang? The gang mask mafia. Wah. How did they do this?" 

Shawn sighed, "They have one thing out of two possible things. Power or talent. If they have the power they don't need their talent. Or if they have the talent they don't need power."

Chen clenched his jaw, "Talent? Why do they need talent for this?" 

Shawn put his hand inside the pocket of his pants and nodded, "Yes. Talent."

Chen tried to say something but cut off by Jihan, "An ignorant like you can't even imagine this type of plan. Of course. They have the talent to make this perfect plan." 

Chen glared at Jihan, "You seem like you're a big fan of them."

Shawn put a mysterious smile on his face, "He should be. They have that impressive talent."

After some time, Seunggi came to Shawn, "We checked every single CCTV camera. But every camera's file is empty. Every single number was unregistered. One of the bodyguards is describing what he remembers to the artist. He is about to finish drawing her pencil sketch." He informed.

Shawn stole a glance at the bodyguard and nodded, "Okay. Let's go to the restaurant now."

He raised his brows, "That street case?" 

As Shawn nodded Seunggi sneered, "You're very concerned about that girl's case. I don't want any good news." 

Shawn glared at him, "I'm concerned about my every case." 

Seunggi sneered again, "Yes. But especially this one...", 

"Let's not waste our time here." Shawn mumbled.

After coming to the restaurant, they collected all the data from the restaurant. Then they came out of the restaurant and walker on the street beside the restaurant, searching for CCTV cameras. 

Shawn sighed, "How come every CCTV camera was broken at the same time? Something is very wrong. There is no CCTV camera in this street. It was pre-planned. Maybe, the culprit knows about her schedule." 

Seunggi nodded, "Yes. That can be possible. Did you tell her to come?" 

Shawn nodded, "Yes. I told her." 

"Of course. You did. Why did I even bother to ask!" He chuckled as Shawn whined.

"Did you return the earring to her?" Shawn took out the earring as he heard that. Gazing at the earring his face curled up with a soft smile,

[Yesterday on the street beside the GOOD restaurant...

"Sir. We didn't find anything. The owner of the restaurant told us that all the CCTV cameras are broken from a long ago. And they don't have every single information about their part-time workers. But they'll find out without informing the workers. We checked the CCTV cameras around this street but I don't think it can be helpful." Chen said to Shawn. 

"Okay." Shawn crossed his arms over his chest, He turned his head to Jihan when he came to him. "Sir, we couldn't find anything. Did you find anything?" 

Shawn took a glance at him and instantly his gaze stopped at something in the corner of the street. He titled his head, and walked there, "I think I find something." Saying that he sat on his knee and took it from the corner.

 Jihan looked at Shawn, then at the thing, he was holding. "An earring? Someone may be dropped it by mistake." Jihan said.

Shawn put the earring inside his pocket, "No it's her. Bella's." 

Chen tilted his head, "That woman's? How do you know?" 

Shawn let out a deep breath and smiled, "I saw yesterday she was wearing one of this earring. So it's the other one."]

Shawn came out of his deep thoughts as he heard Seunggi shouting, "Wake up. Why are you smiling? I asked if you return the earring or not." 

Shawn cleared his throat, "I will return that later."

Seunggi narrowed his eyes, "Later? Why?" 

Shawn gulped and averted his gaze from his, "I.. like... that... earring." He mumbled.

"Will you make a duplicate and give it to Suzy?" Seunggi teased him. His face downed as he heard the name.

He looked so annoyed by the name, "You know. She is like a sister to me." 

Seunggi chuckled seeing his expression, "But. You're not like a brother to her." 

Shawn sighed silently. Of course. He knew she likes him. But he didn't have any feelings for her. Shawn almost jumped when his phone rang inside his pocket. Shawn took his phone out and sighed as he gazed at his phone screen. "Suzy." He looked at Seunggi. "Speaking of the witch." Saying that he picked up the call, "What?"

Suzy: "Thank god. You've finally picked up my call" "Where are you?"

"Why?" Shawn sighed.

Suzy: "Come to the Han River. I'm here."

"If you're forgetting let me remind you. I'm an Inspector. I'm a busy person. And most importantly I'm not your manager nor bodyguard. Bye."

Before she could reply, he hung up the call. Damn. If she wasn't the daughter of CG(Commissioner general), I wouldn't have bear her until now. I'm just not saying anything to her because of my respect towards her father. Ah! What a pain!

After coming back to his office, Jihan gave him the sketches. He checked the sketches carefully. The girl's hair was long, her lips shape was the upper thin, formal outfits. They looked so smart. They were wearing sunglasses, night glasses. So their faces were covered by those glasses.

He looked at Chen. "You'll go to every shop in front of this museum and take their CCTV camera footage. If you see any car's number, then collect and find out the car. So that we can take the Blackbox camera's footage. Let's try it. We'll definitely find something. I'm taking a short break. Jihan you'll come with me."

"Where will we go?" Jihan clenched his jaw.

Shawn glared at him, "My mom is angry with me because you told her that I lied to her. So you have to take responsibility for it. She told me to buy a necklace for my sister as a present. Her wedding is next Sunday. So I have to buy a present for her. And you'll choose one for her."

"Why me? It's your sister."

Shawn rubbed the back of his neck. "I'm not good at choosing feminine types of things."

"Bella. You're not going to kill us right? Drive carefully. Yea. You were just going to crash that car." Sunbin shouted as Bella increased the speed of the car. 

Bella was driving the car at high speed. She said she'll go to the Cinema with them. 

Nick couldn't make it because of his work. Daniel and Sunbin were sitting on the backseat.

Daniel widened his eyes as Bella looked back and winked at Sunbin, "Darling. You know I love you all. I'll let anything happen to you."

"Bella. You're being reckless now..." He stopped mumbling when she took a glance at him and sneered. Ah it hurts. Her smile could make him ready for dying too. 

"Just drive. Don't look back." Sunbin shouted.

Sunbin glared at Herry who was chuckling and sitting quietly beside the driver seat, "Who gave her the idea of driving? Herry you?" 

Herry put a silly smile on his face and bit his tongue, "How can I not? I missed her agility." 

Daniel sighed, "So. We should tighten your screw first."

Everyone almost jumped as Bella shouted, "Guys. Shut up. Get off. We're here."

Sunbin looked outside through the glass confusingly, "You said cinema. Why are we here then?" 

Bella blinked her eyes cutely, "I just change my mind." Daniel chuckled. What a childish girl!

"You said you've dated many girls. And you don't even know which floor is for ladies' items?" Shawn glared at Jihan.

His gaze followed to a shop as Jihan pointed at the shop, "Here is it."

Shawn sighed and entered the shop with Jihan following him from behind. He stopped when he saw a crowd in front of the cash counter.

Jihan pressed his lips together and tried to find out what happened there. He looked at the person beside him who was laughing. "Excuse me, gentleman. What happened there?" 

"A girl is arguing with the manager of the shop. She is saying for a while that the dress she bought yesterday has a hole in it. But the manager is denying that" The man replied.

Jihan shook his head in disbelief, "What a cliche!"

Shawn tiled his head confusingly. He tried to look at the person who was arguing, and his heart immediately started beating fast as he saw a familiar face.

-

The manager disagreed with Bella again. "Ma'am that's impossible. You make the hole in the dress by mistake."

Bella sighed, controlling her anger, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I just said? I said I didn't even wear it. What I did was I just take it out from the bag and saw that hole in it." 

The manager again denied that "Where is the hole? There is no hole." 

Bella lost her patience now. She took the dress, and pushed her finger inside the hole, and pulled it with her strength, tearing off the dress by making the hole bigger, "Can you see now?" She shouted.

The owner immediately came to her and apologized to her, "Sorry madam. I informed him before that this dress has a hole in it. But I think he forgets that. I'm sorry." 

Bella glared at the manager when he took the dress and told her to wait. She sighed and sat on the couch.

-

"Ah it's Ms. Bella. The street case." Jihan remembered and looked at Shawn who was staring at her as if there is no tomorrow.

After a while, Shawn realized Jihan was taking glances at him suspiciously. "What?" He asked without his eyes averting from Bella.

"Sir, why are you smiling at that woman?" Jihan narrowed his gaze at him.

Shawn gulped and averted his gaze from her instantly, "I'm not... smiling." He mumbled hesitantly. How can I tell him the truth? I just can't stop staring at her. I don't know why I'm smiling like a fool.

Jihan raised his brows, "I can clearly notice that you are smiling. It's true she is that pretty. But you're not that kind of boy who will be fascinated by a girl's outside beauty..." 

As Shawn glared at him, he stopped. 

Shawn smiled. I feel like I know her for a long time. But I don't know her from before. Why this is happening to me?

Jihan titled his head when he saw her coming to them. "Why she is coming to me? Do you know?" Jihan turned around to look at Shawn. But he wasn't here. Where is he?

Without Jihan's realization, Shawn went to the other side of the shop, hiding from Bella. But why? He didn't know. Jihan was still standing there, dumbfounded.

Shawn tried to listen to their conversation. Actually, he was curious about why she came to him.  She looked scary, 

"Mister. Do you know me?" It's the first thing Bella asked Jihan after coming to him.

Jihan surprisingly shook his head saying, "No I guess."

She narrowed her eyes, "Then why did you laugh when I was arguing with that manager? Don't you think as a man it was your duty to go there and stop that manager? You laughed? And You're the police? Really?"

Jihan's lips parted in shock. He tried to say something but before he could say anything, Shawn came in front of him, giving Bella a playful smile, "Don't you think you were just too fast?" He asked her with his closed lips smile.

Bella widened her eyes, "You.. Inspector..." 

Shawn nodded. "Again Coincidence."
