Luke's appraiser associate determines the auction item to be a fake, and the team determines he's engaged in money laundering for Hyunda Finance. While monitoring company CFO Eric Umezaki's phone, they find a mysterious message indicating he'll be attending an unknown meeting that night. Luke and the main character follow Eric to this meeting; Luke asks the MC to stay outside, then he ambushes the group of men with whom Eric appears to be exchanging a flash drive.
When the dust settles from the altercation, it's revealed that Eric and the men he's meeting are all police officers and that Eric is undercover investigating Hyunda Finance. Eric is reluctant to let the two join the investigation formally, but he accepts what information they have and entertains the idea of using Sphynx to lure out Daniel Song.
