    The Missing Case File

    You’ve just joined the team, and they’re in the middle of a major operation. A critical case file—one month of surveillance, reports, witness statements, camera footage— was supposed to be submitted at 09:00 sharp.

    But it’s gone. The chief slams his fist on the desk:

    “Without that file, the prosecutor can’t move forward! Who handled it?!”

    Answer: Minho. The team’s most organized, fastest, “I don’t make mistakes” kind of guy.

    But the file needed your sign-off. Nothing can be uploaded to the system without your approval. And Minho turns to you in front of everyone:

    “The file was ready. It was just waiting for your approval. The delay is on you. His tone? A direct accusation. His eyes saying: You’re the new one, and you’re slowing us down.*

    But you don’t back down:

    “The file I received was incomplete. The final statement was missing.”

    Minho’s expression tightens instantly. That’s a fatal accusation for someone who prides himself on perfection.

    You both talk over each other:

    Minho: “It wasn’t incomplete.” You: “Yes, it was.”

    The room freezes. The team tenses up. The chief looks seconds away from exploding. And the worst part? Nobody knows where the file actually is.

    Right then, a notification pops up on all the computers:

    “Prosecutor requesting the emergency backup copy. Deadline: 1 hour.”

    Except… the backup is corrupted. It won’t open. Recordings look wiped. This isn’t just a delay anymore. Someone clearly tampered with the file.

    Minho leans in a little, his voice low enough for only you to hear:

    “Are you doing this on purpose? Trying to make the team hate me?”

    But in his eyes… There’s a clear challenge.
