## Plot

### Episode 04

Welcy makes her first appearance shortly after Flum and Leitch meet Satils Francois. She reveals that she has been investigating Satils on her brother's behalf. She even gives Flum her card in case she needs to contact her.

Later on, Welcy finds out regarding a secret room that Satils has after getting one of her subordinates drunk. She sets up a sting operation outside of Satils mansion until she hears someone running across the rooftop. She then looks to see that it is Flum.

Flum tells Welcy that she is about to break into Satils secret room which Welcy takes Flum up on the offer to come with her. Flum outright tells Welcy that she found out that she found out about Satils location from a subordinate she killed. While Welcy is initially taken aback by Flum bluntly telling her she killed someone, she accepts it when Flum explains she did it because Satils had her men kidnap her partner, Milkit.

Upon finding the entrance to the hidden chamber and being 'welcomed' in by several of Satils men, they are ambushed. However, before Welcy can comprehend what happened, Flum had managed to cutdown all three of their attackers. Welcy is initially frightened by what Flum did. When Flum pointed out if she didn't kill them, they would have killed them, Welcy feels bad for putting Flum on the spot. She then follows Flum deeper into Satils hidden hideout.

After Flum breaks through Satils hidden chamber and save Milkit, Welcy casually entered the chamber and picked up various documents to prove Satils had illegal dealings with the Church. As Welcy asks Flum if they should get going, she stops when she sees Flum looking at Satils with murderous intent.
