The Lin city resided by the XX river. Whenever spring comes, the whole city was enveloped by the mist that makes the city feel damp and refreshing.
On a typical cloudy day, the police station was unusually restless because of the two new young trainee policewomen.
This wasn't really a big deal. However, the two new trainees who just sat down in the office were attracting a lot of attention from fellow police officers.
Because they looked very special.
The young police officer, Kim Taehyung, was the one who contacted them for the training. At this moment, even he is dazed while looking at them just like other colleagues.
One woman is beautiful while the other is.. a little bit weird.
The women sitting in the left is Park Roseanne, a criminal psychology university graduate. She has long hair and pretty eyes. Even while wearing jeans with a plain white shirt, she looked like a teen model on the cover of a magazine. Her resume is quite impressive. She got the class scholarship, excellent student award, and news anchor of the university, top 10 in the debate contest...
According to Kim Taehyung's prediction, Roseanne will no doubt become one of the top policers in the city.
The other woman is Kim Lalisa.
In her resume, her achievements were excellent. She always came in 1st place in the university.
But he doubted how she got into the police academy. She doesn't even look to be five feet three. She is skinny and petite. She looks underaged even with a serious posture sitting in that chair. Her skin is very pale and average-looking. At a glance, she looks like a character in a vampire movie. She wore a business like long black jacket, long to her ankle that doesn't fit with her baby appearance, thus making her look strange and ridiculous.
And her name is Lalisa? (* In the original book the name of the female lead means something funny in Chinese. It appears a couple of times so I thought its worth mentioning.)
He wanted to laugh but as a nice and gentlemanly guy, he still kept his normal expression and decided to stop analyzing Lisa. Suddenly, Lisa looked up at him while he was about to speak. Her eye's expression made him dazed a little. Rosé has been the only one who talked to him while Lisa quietly listened. She didn't even look straight at him once. He now realized that her pupils are especially black, an indescribable black. Her eyes are calm. He felt like she can see right through him and knows what his judgments are about her.
Then Lisa once again kept her head low returned to the previous manner.
Taehyung coughed and spoke up: "The higher up is on leave for a few days. He will determine your trainer after he came back."
Rosé's eyes lit up: "Isn't he Jeon Jungkook the officer with the highest solving rate in this area?"
Taehyung smiled and nodded.
"Is he going to be our trainer?" Lisa suddenly spoke up, her voice is weak and soft.
Taehyung said: "We have to wait for Jungkook to come back to make the decision."
Jungkook is well known among the young policewomen. Everyone says he has a gentle appearance, once you get to know him. He looked really handsome, but actually treated both criminals and women who had feelings for him very coldly.
Even though the top told him to let Jeon Jungkook and another experienced officer train these outstanding new officers, Taehyung knows Jungkook won't have the patience to teach a new officer. On top of that, a weak officer?
"I'm your advisor while you're in training here. If you have any problems, you can contact me. This is all the documents of information you'll need while in training. You can take a look at it."
The two received the documents and looked at it attentively. After waiting for a while without hearing anything from the two, Taehyung asked, "Let me ask you guys a question: do you feel that the major you studied in university is going to be useful to you while solving cases or not?"
Rosé spoke up right away: "I think it's very useful, but we've only studied theories without experience in real life. We will probably trouble you a lot in the future, so I hope it's not a bother."
Taehyung smiled: "You don't have to be so polite, let's learn from each other."
He glanced over at Lisa, she nodded slightly: "I agree." She stopped at that as if not wanting to talk more than necessary.
Taehyung thought to himself, she really doesn't know how to communicate with others, this will probably become a problem in the future.
Next to Lisa, Rosé still smiled sweetly as if she was already used to Lisa's cold personality, but her expression to him was apologetic and helpless.
Taehyung didn't mind and still smiles while talking: "Okay, you two try to analyze me and see who is better?"
Normal people usually thought analyzing people was as hard as guessing the lotto numbers, even he was no exception.
Rosé blinked: "Is this a test?"
"Let's make it your first test while on training."
Everybody in the team was busy with a meeting or was out; they were the only ones in this room. The evening sun shone through the windows (unless there is only one window), making the room bright and open.
The two looked at him from top to bottom, making him a bit nervous.
Taehyung thought that Lisa will speak up when her gaze stopped at his face; however, she remained silent. Her fingers were placed on top of her knee and were tapping gently. She looked petite and weak, but her actions were like a man. Her fingers were pale and thin to the point of possibly breaking at any moment making him uncomfortable.
After a moment, Rosé looked back at Taehyung's face looking excited and eager to say her analysis.
"Who is going first?" Taehyung asked.
At this point, Lisa looked faintly at Rosé However, it seemed like Rosé didn't notice and was only looking at Taehyung and said: "I will."
Taehyung noticed this and felt a bit strange. This was their first time meeting. Of course, the information they know of him were limited so the person going first was going have an advantage. They are from the same major, but it doesn't seem like they are close. But why did Lisa let Rosé go first?
Rosé slowly spoke: "First off, you look like an easygoing person, but you aren't. Your desk is messy, however, all your documents are actually arranged in chronological order and to the types of cases. Plus, all the documents you gave us are neatly arranged. You also added information that was going to useful to us by yourself, like the dorm, restaurants, even shopping malls..."
Taehyung smiled brightly as Rosé spoke.
This encouraged her to speak faster: "Third, you have a girlfriend because you are wearing a really pretty necklace. While talking to us, you also unconsciously touched it several times while wearing a soft expression."
"Fourth, you really like to learn. Even though you asked us to analyze you due to a moment of interest; you listened very attentively while moving your pupils telling me you are thinking about it. Lastly..."
Rosé picked up the picture frame on the table and smiled brightly: "You are very proud of your job and respect it. All your pictures with your colleagues are placed in an important place on the table."
Tae laughed:"I'm not as good as what you said, but you analyzed really well."
Rosé's smile became sweeter. She drinks a bit of tea and glanced over at Lisa.
Lisa was still in a relaxed manner without a change in expression, but her fingers that were tapping were straightened out.
Taehyung was really curious. Rosé already analyzed everything precisely. Is there anything for Lisa to say? Is she going to say: "I agree with her." Does this girl not want to stand out or just doesn't know anything?
Just like what Taehyung predicted, Lisa said: "I agree with her."
Tae didn't know what to say.
Surprisingly, Lisa continued to speak: "I'd like to add a few points."
Lisa's cold eyes looked up at him attentively. But it looked like she was not used to looking at someone straight in the eyes, so she closed her eyes right away. After that, she spoke up in a calm tone that sounded quite soothing: "You do have a girlfriend, but the relationship isn't more than 3 months. Today is her birthday. Her present is in the top drawer on the right. Your right arm was injured recently. You have an older sister, her appearance is quite good."
At this point, Taehyung was stunned and thought to himself: "Did she investigate him?"
At this moment, Lisa's fingers slid across the picture frame on the far left and stopped at the lighter next to it. She looked down at it for a bit and the corner of her mouth curled up a little bit like she wanted to smile: "The most important thing on your desk is not the picture frame, but the limited edition Zippo lighter. You and Jungkook are quite close and you really respect him. This zippo was his present to you on your birthday or your promotion. Afterward, you also gave him a pair of sports shoes that was also quite expensive."
Speaking to this point, Lisa glanced up to look at Taehyung: "Officer Taehyung, psychological analysts think of possibilities. These conclusions have the highest percentage of being accurate." She remained calm, but her expression showed eagerness waiting for his answer. This showed that she was still a student.
Taehyung's eyes were wide open: "How did you know these things?"
Rosé was sitting next to Lisa holding the teacup while quietly listening. At this point, she placed the teacup down gently and spoke with a smile: "Officer Tae, Lisa is really outstanding."
Listening to this, Lisa showed a faint smile. Her eyes that were serious now shone brightly and her pale cheeks turned a little red.
Tae looked at her first smile today, and his mind quickly came to a са conclusion to why she let Rosé go first. It's because she knew if she went first, then Rosé wouldn't have anything else to say.
After that, Tae sat in the office in silence. Rosé's conclusions were based on evidence, but Lisa's conclusions are entirely different. She was right about it, except for one thing: he didn't have a sister but a cousin. His cousin was definitely really pretty, but they have a close relationship like blood-related siblings. When Lisa explained her analysis process, Tae had this indescribable feeling because it was quite simple.
After calming down, Tae called Jungkook: "Boss."
Jungkook was from Busan. He was visiting his family while on break. Maybe he is out right now because over there, it was a bit noisy. After a couple of seconds, Jungkook spoke up: "Speak!"
"The team just got two new trainees. I met them today and they are really outstanding. I've sent you their resumes. Boss, you have to train one of them."
The laughter in Jungkook's voice is even louder now, but his answer made Tae disappointed: "Am I really that free? Not interested."
Taehyung called him while he was gathering with his friends.
The evening light shone through from the window, and the city of Busan shone brightly with different types of lights. All the people in the room were well dressed; smiling while talking made the scene look like a really expensive picture. Jungkooki gave his card to someone next to him. With a cigarette in his mouth, he took out his phone and pushed the door open to walk outside.
He sat down on a sofa in the aisle. Under his feet was a soft fur carpet. In front of him was a row of green plants, and water running along the sides of a jade piece structure. One employee walked up to him and asked if he needed anything. Seeing that, Jungkook shook his head, and the employee immediately walked away silently.
Jungkook shook the cigarette. On the other side of the phone line, Tae didn't stop reporting: "The top said that you have to train one university trainee. This is for you to write your end of the year report..."
Jungkook laid back onto the sofa, closed his eyes: "Alright."
Tae hasn't had the time to be happy when he heard him slowly say: "You should arrange all your jobs for this year to have time to train the new trainee. You have write it on your report for the end of the year."
Tae quickly declined: "I'm not going to do it. They are both experts, only you have the abilities to train them."
To prove this, he told Jungkook about the reasoning of Lisa's analysis.
First, Tae touched the necklace unconscious several times with a softened expression; but he also touched it to change the position of the piece because he is used to doing it to prove that his girlfriend just gave it him, thus also mentioning about his inner emotional desires, which showed the beginning of a love relationship.
Second, his eyes stopped at the top drawer on the right several times, his face expression soft. Lisa concluded that present was for his girlfriend. The relationship just started, today was not any special day so it was highly likely that it was a birthday present.
Third, still used his hand to writing just like usual but whenever he was about to pick up something, his hand would stop for a couple of seconds or he would switch it to his left hand.
Fourth, his coat is a new item from Givenchy clothing line; the bottom is jeans from another brand, Meterbonew. If he knows how to buy Givenchy then he wouldn't pair them together. That's why; he did not buy the coat. The necklace is a present from his girlfriend, as their relationship is just newly established. She wouldn't buy him such an expensive coat from Givenchy brand. The high probability is that the coat is from another women is higher.
Also, there is one unique characteristic about men who grew up with an older sister. They can be relaxed in front of women, more confident than the usual men. Tae has this unique characteristic.
Another thing is that his eyes didn't light up or look especially happy, like other men when meeting such a beautiful woman like Rosé. He shows proper manner. Lisa said that's why she thinks that the coat was given by his older sister who is pretty, or maybe really beautiful.
Five, the thing about the limited edition Zippo. Tae didn't just casually place it anywhere, like in a drawer that is easy to reach; but a place where it is rather far, near the picture frame to show the chance that the Zippo was given by someone who he respects so he subconsciously placed it in an important place. In the team, the person with highest chance around his age who he also respects would be Jungkook.
Taehyung showed good upbringing and an honest character so he definitely gave something in return for the expensive present. Even though he is wearing a cheap brand of jeans, he is wearing an expensive type of sports shoes. The backpack next to him also came from the same brand to prove that he is loyal to that brand. That's why he will also give Jungkook a present from that brand with a high chance a sports shoes from that brand which he highly value.
After reporting everything, Tae said: "Boss, you should train Lalisa. She has the ability to be your student."
Jungkook laughed: "Lalisa?" (You know the funny name)
Tae also laughed.
But Jungkook quickly returned to his previous expression: "Lisa's analysis has the element of luck in it. If we were to try to solve the case like that, the risk is higher than Rosé's analysis. Rosé's analysis is not deep however it's safe. Another thing, she also seems better than Lisa on everything else."
Taehyung is speechless, he doesn't speak for a while then asked in a small tone:" So... who are you going to mentor?"
"Let me think about it."
