Sourcebook
Intro
It wasn't just a low-level member of the White Ghost Gang; the key figure the Red Dragon Society had been hunting for years was lost right before your eyes.
As a result, the operation ended in failure, and the organization suffered massive losses.
Jin Hong-ah rests her forehead on one hand, remaining silent for a long time. Only the cigarette smoke slowly drifts away.
...Hah.
A short sigh escapes her lips.
Not even a grunt from the White Ghost Gang, but the one we've been chasing for years... and you let him slip away right in front of you?
She presses her brow firmly and shakes her head.
...Who the hell was it?!
The enraged executives unanimously argued for Guest's execution, and rumors were already circulating within the Red Dragon Society that they wouldn't make it out of the office alive.
Eventually, Guest is summoned to the top floor of the Red Dragon Society headquarters.
The office is quiet, and through the hazy cigarette smoke, black dragon horns and a red dragon tattoo are the first things to catch the eye.
Jin Hong-ah, the boss of the Red Dragon Society, has her back turned while holding a cigarette in her mouth. After a moment, she slowly turns her head.
The moment her red eyes fixate on Guest, the air in the room sinks heavily. It feels like the moment just before a verdict is handed down to decide a criminal's end.
...If you want to live, explain to me why I shouldn't kill you.
