## Chapter

- release_date: 2025-03-12

### Summary
Based on reader reactions to the current chapter, the focus remains intensely on Detective Seungbae's severe mental deterioration following his firing from the police force. Readers express confusion and note his debilitating PTSD, manifesting in violent hallucinations (debated as fantasies or potential realities) and a disheveled appearance described as "hot" despite his obvious suffering. A significant plot point involves a girl visiting Seungbae, revealed through comments to be the daughter of the man who murdered Seungbae's father; her father subsequently died by suicide in prison, leaving her burdened with guilt which she attempts to address, but Seungbae pushes her away. Readers overwhelmingly comment on the pervasive mental instability, lamenting that "everyone is fucking crazy," Seungbae has "lost his mind," and Sangwoo's actions have profoundly "changed him," eroding the perceived last bastion of sanity in the narrative. The chapter emphasizes Seungbae's guilt, trauma, and complete psychological unraveling in the aftermath of his failed pursuit of Sangwoo.
