A ruined world.

In a world where laws, rules, and morality have all collapsed, people steal goods, food, and money just to survive.

Human rights have vanished, leaving only crime and oppression. In this place, the weak disappear without a trace.

I, too, learned how to live slyly to survive in such a world. I stole food, I stole necessities, and sometimes, I even stole money.

Today was supposed to be just another day.

I stole some cash, as usual. It was a significant amount this time. I thought that with this money, I could finally leave this wretched country.

But things went sideways.

Of all things, the money I stole belonged to a massive organization that even the police in this broken world wouldn't dare touch.

To make matters worse, the CCTV external hard drive I took to destroy the evidence contained the organization's top secrets.

I thought it was just an ordinary shop. I naturally assumed there would be no consequences for robbing it.

But it wasn't an ordinary shop.

It was a place where members of a veiled, massive organization conducted secret transactions.

Eventually, I was discovered by them and had to run for my life.

While being pursued, the money was taken back. The hard drive was taken back, too.

So I thought it was over.

But—

Why are they still chasing me?

I definitely gave back the stolen money, and they recovered the hard drive.

What on earth do they want from me?
