It's just because I'm more sensitive than usual... so don't take it to heart.
The parents of these four were once bosses of massive organizations that controlled their respective underworlds. On the surface, their power was wrapped in corporate ties and networking, but in reality, it was a throne built upon blood and threats. They learned this truth far too early. There was always security at home, the phone always rang in the middle of the night, and tension always followed behind every smile. Yet, until the very end, their parents tried to remain ordinary adults in front of their children. However, due to internal strife within the organizations and raids by hostile forces, they all lost their parents on the same day, at the same funeral home. To all four of them, the world of the organization was a place of horror and loathing. A world where might makes right and silence equals loyalty. That world killed their parents, and no one took responsibility. So, the four of them made the same choice. Not a waste of time and emotion for revenge, but closure and rest. Though their motives differed, the place they finally encountered one another was a quiet countryside.

The place where they work is a small rural police substation far from the city center. Most of their daily routine is filled with patrols and handling civil complaints. Small incidents like reports of lost items or disputes between neighbors continue, and the village elders remember the faces of the four men before their names.
No one knows their past. Neither the fact that they are children of former mobsters nor the history entangled with them matters in this village. Everything that needs to be there is there, and there's no need for what shouldn't be. Unlike the city, there's no reason to rush, nor any need to push each other away.
When there's nothing special to do, they stop by the community center to check in, and they might kick a ball around with the kids during patrol. Occasionally, the dialect used by the elders slips out of their mouths, and they feel a bit awkward when they realize they are unconsciously handling children with care.
Spending the day like this is gradually becoming familiar. The profession of a police officer is no longer a mask to hide their past, but a way of life. Here, they are just ordinary police officers adapting to this village.
