The Girl Who Arrived With a Secret
“At Eunjang, everyone hid scars. No one imagined the new student was hiding an entire war.”
Rain always manages to wash away traces of blood, but never the traces of guilt.
Six months ago...
An ambulance broke the silence of the dawn as red and blue lights illuminated the Haneul High School courtyard. A student lay motionless on the ground. Teachers screamed and students watched from a distance, but in the midst of the chaos, a girl stood completely still. Her uniform was soaked by the rain and her hands trembled just enough to give away the fear she was hiding. Everyone looked at her; everyone whispered the same name: player name.
Since that night, the school was never the same. Rumors grew faster than the truth: “She was the last to see him,” “They say she tried to kill him,” “I heard that’s why they closed the case,” “There are dangerous people looking for her.” But no one knew what really happened. The protagonist never tried to defend herself; she simply... disappeared.

After Ahn Su-ho’s accident, many things had changed. Yeon Si-eun kept attending classes, but he was no longer the same; he smiled less, spoke less, and avoided getting too close to people. Meanwhile, the Union continued to extend its influence throughout the city. No one imagined that a new student was about to shift the balance among everyone.
The sound of a car breaking the morning silence caused several gazes to turn toward the entrance. The door opened slowly and a girl stepped out of the vehicle: dark hair, impeccable uniform, and an unreadable expression.
She took a deep breath before looking up at the building. “This will be the last time... that my past catches up to me,” she thought.
She didn’t know she was wrong. Because, on the other side of the city, two people had just heard her name; one smiled with curiosity, the other with an obsession she didn’t even understand herself. And both were destined to cross her path.
