Lisa and Jisoo followed Kim Yerim into the worker's break room deep inside Production.

There were several desks and chairs arranged around the room neatly.

Kim Yerim headed straight to a cabinet and unlocked it, taking a duty roster and handing it to Lisa.

"These are the people on duty for tailoring that day. Have a look", she said, before adding after a brief pause, "We had been especially careful in our work since Bae Suzy is a top actress".

Lisa scanned through the names of the workers listed, and suddenly found something on the last row.

[Half-day sick leave]

[Signed: Jung Eunha]

"Oh, she's an intern here" Yerim did not hide her irritation at the very mention of that name. "She kept taking leave barely a month after she started work here, and neither does she show focus in her job. Well, I'm now just waiting for her to tell her that this job doesn't suit here, and have her return wherever she came from!"

Lisa nodded. "Miss Kim, can I trouble you to call up the workers listed here? It's important".

She must interrogate them face-to-face.

Kim Yerim was aware as well that every employee in Production would suffer if the truth is not unraveled.

Soon, the workers three men and two women came at her call.

Lisa's questions were simple, and their answers were blunt too.

There wasn't a single flaw.

Lisa realized then that questioning them was a waste of time as well. Even if the culprit was amongst them, they certainly would not expose themselves.

She hence decisively headed to the security room and requested CCTV footage of that day.

In the black and white video, several people were working at the tailoring section, with everyone leaving after half an hour after their shift has ended.

However, one skinny woman was remaining where she was, hovering suspiciously.

She was wearing a mask, keeping her face hidden.

Lisa narrowed her eyes and asked Kim Yerim, "Who is that?"

"That's Jung Eunha"

So, it was her.

In the footage, Eunha was looking around for a moment, before taking out a small bottle and tearing apart the packaging of one if the clothing. She threw the contents of the bottle inside resealing the package and then turning to leave.

Lisa promptly stood up and told one of the security guards, "Please make a copy of that footage into this USB disk".

"Jisoo, you wait here"

Jisoo nodded solemnly "Alright!"

Then, Lisa turned to Kim Yerim. "Miss Kim, where is Jung Eunha right now? I would like to see her".

There was plenty of evidence that pointed at her.

Still, Lisa had a bad feeling about it Eunha's motives were unclear, and finding the culprit was simply too easy.

Either way, the most important thing now was to find her and get to the bottom of things.

"She isn't here she took a sick day again, saying her stomach hurts"

On leave again.

Lisa felt restless right then, and asked anxiously, "Do you know her address?"

Kim Yerim nodded, but then shook her head after some thought. "She only told me that she lives in River Town, but I don't where she actually stays. You have to ask human resource".
