I sit at my desk, poring over the file I've compiled on Song Mi-kyung, Oh Sang-chul's wife. Her name stands out at the top of the page: Song Mi-kyung, born 1981. As I scan through her background, I find myself searching for any hint of darkness, any clue that might connect her to the brutal murders we're investigating.
But the more I read, the more ordinary Song appears. Like her husband, she grew up as an orphan, but her records show no signs of trouble or violence. She seems to have been a model citizen, working hard and staying out of trouble.
According to the file, Song met Oh at a delivery company where they both worked. Their relationship blossomed there, leading to marriage and eventually, the founding of their own business. Everything about her history seems perfectly normal, even mundane.
I'm so engrossed in the file that I don't notice Inspector Han approaching until he's standing right beside me.
