Under the secret orders of the Criminal Investigation Bureau director, who suspects Baek Haegyeon of betrayal, Guk Jiho begins to assist him while secretly monitoring him. But the more he learns about this man, the more unpredictable he seems!

“You seem to think too highly of me.”

An unfamiliar expression appeared on Baek Haegyeon’s face. It was one Guk Jiho recognized.

It was the look of hatred and annoyance he had seen before, directed at those who were “out of their league.”

“Why would I think highly of you when you’re the only one I can rely on? I should be more suspicious of you.”
