The team arrived in Mardin in order to find out the problem that was going on there. Taylan ordered the player to partner with Zeynep, she then sighs and says that she ain't in the mood of investigating the city, but since she wants to learn about it, she'll accompany the player. We received a call from a certain İpek Çukurova, she tells us that one of the lead actress was found murdered in her changing room, we then investigated the crime scene and discovered the body of Gülay Yıldız, famous Turkish actress known for negative roles in several series. We send her body to autopsy, we then decide to interrogate İpek about the murder, since she was the one who reported the murder. We interrogate her, she tells us that Gülay was working on her recent project, and she was the songwriter of the series, who composed the theme, she tells us that Gülay was a remarkable and brilliant actress, whose acting skills were legendary, her death is a huge loss for the Turkish cinema. After her interrogation, Zeynep says that Gülay was indeed a magnanimous actress, and very skilled at a young age, she was her favourite star at one time. We then proceeded to find more clues, we later found a poster which starred the victim, and her co-star. Zeynep immediately recognised him as Onur Sağlam, Turkey's one of most famous and richest actor, Zeynep then says that Onur is her crush for a long time, and she can't wait to meet him, she fixed her hair and applied perfume. We interrogate Onur, and inform him about his co-star's demise, he was extremely saddened on this, he tells us that Gülay was the first person, he ever worked with on a series, her death is huge loss for the Turkish cinema, Zeynep then asks for autograph from Onur, and he gladly gives it to her. After the interrogation, Zeynep was extremely overjoyed, she said that she finally got the autograph of her crush, after that we found out a flower bouquet that was directed to Gülay, it was sent by a certain Metin Akyüz, who appeared to be fan of Gülay, we decided to interrogate him, he was extremely sad and says that he always admired Gülay, and he can't believe she's dead, which is a huge loss for the world. The autopsy results revealed out that Gülay was killed by acid burn on stomach. At the precinct, we were discussing details, we then hear a fight.
Mid-investigation, we heard outside from the department, when we reach outside, we found İpek fighting with a certain, he tells us that his name is Tarik Özden, and he is a oud musician, and it was his performance today but İpek interrupted it with her concert. We then decide to interrogate Tarik, if he knew anything about Gülay. During his interrogation, he tells that he didn't know who was Gülay, the only thing he knew was his performance today, which was ruined by İpek, and he doesn't care what happened, he then brushes us off, Zeynep turned fierce that how dare he ignore them like this, and don't feel any sympathy for Gülay. After his interrogation, Arslan approaches and say that there are already some many problems going on, he tells us that one of the lead actress of the series, called him and told him that her life is in danger, he tells us that her name was Ayça Turan. We then decided to debrief her, during her interrogation, she says that why Arslan didn't come, Zeynep then says why she is asking about him, she then says that she wanted to meet him, we then ask her about Gülay, she then says that Gülay was her friend, and they have known each other for a long time, her demise is extremely heartbreaking, because she lost a friend. When we arrive back at the station, Arslan asks us about Ayça, we tell us that she wanted to meet him, he was surprised that why would someone to meet him. We were then approached by Onur, who tells us that he is worried about the cult, he fears that the cult will expand and would ruin the peace of Turkey, Zeynep was constantly peering him, Onur then tells us that he was worried about his girlfriend too. We assure him that everything will be alright. We then proceeded to find more clues, we later find out that Metin and Gülay were dating, we decided to debrief him about this, he then explains us that he and Gülay were extremely close to each other, and were dating for three years now, and they were planning to get married soon, but now she is dead. At the precinct, we were discussing murder details, Arslan tells us that Onur has been missing and we can't find him.
Mid-investigation, Arslan informs us that Onur has been missing for a long time, and we can't find him, and this is really a intimidating situation, Arslan tells us that he was spotted on the crime scene, few hours ago, but now he has disappeared from the site. We later investigate, the crime scene, and found out Onur's phone, we deciphered the passcode, however most of the data was deleted, we sent his phone to Merve, Merve tells us that the killer might have deleted the data to avoid allegations, she tells us that Onur had received a message from Ayça, which said that she has to talk her about something really important. We decide to interrogate Ayça, she tells us that Onur told her that he was going to find some clues related to the cult, because he wanted to eradicate it from existence, however he never specified the location, we then proceeded to find him, however we found out Nadeem Dawoud and Tierre at the crime scene, we were shocked, we asked them what they were doing here, Tierre replies that she was feeling uncomfortable in the department, and she decided to get some fresh air, Zeynep then says that she should be at the department because we could need her help anytime, Nadeem tells us that he spotted Onur here some mins back, after that he immediately appeared out, he tells us that he found out the hideout of the cult, but he was nearly attacked by someone with acid, and we thought it was Gülay's killer, Onur then says that he managed to tackle her killer, however he is afraid that they might be linked to the cult. In the end, we had enough evidence to incriminate Metin Akyüz for Gülay's murder, upon admitting Metin confesses that he killed Gülay, because she found out her real identity, he reveals that he is member of the cult, and he was supposed to burn a lot of people with acid, as their leader ordered this, he tells us that when he started dating Gülay, she had no idea that he was member of the cult, and he carried out his criminal activities, however earlier today Gülay caught him, talking to one of the member, and telling them to do kill various people in Mardin, she later confronted Metin about it, he denied all the allegations, but then Gülay threaten to lock him, he tried to force himself of her, and then knocked her out, and threw acid on her stomach, eventually killing her, we then asked him that why he attacked Onur, he tells us that he found out their hideout, and since he was an obstacle for them, and he had to be eliminated, but he never managed to eliminate him.
Judge Georgiana sentenced him to life imprisonment. After Metin's confession, we then visit Taylan in his office, he says that he is glad that we managed to bring Gülay's killer to justice, but the cult's increasing power and prominence is a intimidating situation for them, and we need to defeat them as fast as we could, and for that we have to unmask the leader. We were then approached by Florin, who demands our help. We then interrogate him, he tells us that he has been feeling really lonely lately, and he needs someone to date, he tells us that he have been talking to a woman, and he wants to take her out on the date, Zeynep tells us that Eylül would the perfect one to give him advice related to relationship. Eylül then helps Florin to prepare the remarkable gift for her date. After Florin departs, Eylül then sit downs, and sips her coffee, Arslan then throws some peanuts into her coffee, and she didn't notice. She then sips the coffee, and then throws it off, she stood up and she saw Arslan eating peanuts, she then becomes fierce, and then takes the peanuts from Arslan's hand and ate all of it. Arslan was standing there, unaware what happened, we were then approached by Onur and Mehmet Kumral, Onur says that he has to inform them about something related to the cult. Zeynep then says that she won't be able to debrief him, so she decided that Arslan should do it. We interrogate Onur and Mehmet, Onur tells us that he and his best friend, Mert Yılmaz made a duo to spy on the cult, to make them aware of their activities, later Mehmet and Aydın Yamantürk, also joined them, he tells us that the cult has already murdered eleven people, and smouldered many houses and buildings, but we have to unmask their leader. Mehmet then says that he along with Aydın captured many members of the cult, Onur then says that he is also worried about his girlfriend. After their interrogation, Arslan asks Zeynep about the reason, why she didn't want to interrogate Onur, she tells us that she couldn't interrogate him because he had a girlfriend, and she had no chance with him, Arslan then laughs and says that she's such a simp and jealous. She then punches Arslan's shoulder. Taylan calls and tells us that several incidents have been reported in Gazientep and we should departure for it soon.
