The male lead is Jingguang, with a red-side Jing and a black-side Su as two personalities.
Kawakami Otoha was once a member of an international criminal organization, known by a codename.
The organization was thoroughly evil, and especially ruthless when dealing with undercover agents. Since she was undercover too, she decided to find herself a way out.
Then she got a boyfriend: Scotland.
But their good times didn't last. One day, Scotland suddenly landed behind bars.
Kawakami Otoha: What am I supposed to do without Scotland? Waaaaah!
Vodka, who came to deliver the news: Calm down, calm down!
Kawakami Otoha: Don't stop me! I'm going to kill whoever put Scotland behind bars!
Vodka: You can leave the organization now.
Kawakami Otoha (instantly composed): Scotland, you know, nobody can drink Scotch forever.
You can just sit in jail and think about what you've done!

After that, Kawakami Otoha started a new line of work and went through several more boyfriends. By coincidence, they all had something in common with Scotland.
Then two new employees joined the Poirot Cafe she ran, and one of them was seriously suspicious!
His name sounded just like her ex's: hiro. His personality and manner were similar to her ex's too, equally dependable and thoughtful.
Ahem, even his chest was just as broad and solid.
The strangest part was that he was just as mercurial and unpredictable. One moment he was gentle and considerate, the next it was hard to tell whether he was good or evil, like he had two faces.
But Kawakami Otoha was sure this man had nothing to do with her ex.
Scotland was sitting in jail, after all.
And then things got stranger and stranger...
Every night, clanging noises came from upstairs.
Every so often, there would be a knock at the door, but no one would be there.
Whenever she went on a date with someone she was flirting with, she felt like someone was watching her from behind.
Whenever things got more serious with one of her dates, the other person would suffer some kind of accident: a broken leg, a car crash, or even a bizarre scandal.
And that new employee was looking more and more like her ex, who was still sitting in jail.
Wait, are you saying that after she kept snacking on substitutes, she ended up with the real thing?
**
Jingguang had a secret. While he was undercover in the organization, another personality emerged within him. "He" was inherently evil, ruthless, and intensely possessive.
After meeting his girlfriend Otoha in the organization, the two were constantly at odds behind the scenes. Yet they tacitly agreed to keep this secret safe, never letting Otoha suspect anything was wrong.
After faking his death and escaping, Jingguang ran into Kawakami Otoha again while carrying out a mission under a false identity.
To his shock, he discovered that she had broken up with him, and that while she changed boyfriends like outfits, she still let her longing for him show in private.
And it seemed she had taken this false identity for a substitute version of Scotland.
Watching Black Su occupy his body and secretly keep tabs on her, scoring big points, Jingguang calmly analyzed the situation, responded with composure, and wrestled with his feelings...
Then he gave in (happily).
So what if he was his own substitute? He could totally do that.
P.S.:
1. The heroine used to be an undercover agent in the organization, not on the good guys' side. She has retired by the time the main story begins (nope).
2. At first, the heroine and the others don't know about the two personalities. To them, Scotland means the person Scotland, not a personality.
3. In red-side Jing and black-side Su, Scotland refers to Black Su.
4. The dual-personality and organization storylines include a lot of headcanon.
A preview of another upcoming story: [Reborn! The Wholesome Town of Namimori]
My name is Oda Yukino, and I'm an assassin.
I couldn't stand the endless overtime and never-ending missions anymore. After successfully quitting a certain Mafia, my brother and I moved out of Yokohama in the middle of the night, hoping to find a city full of love and harmony.
My brother carefully picked out a place, and in the end we settled on Namimori.
They say Namimori is wholesome, safe, harmonious, friendly, and peaceful. It's the perfect place to retire.
Me: Great! That's the place!

To make ends meet and let my brother write his novels in peace, the Oda Works Agency opened for business. After a lot of searching, I finally hired a stylish young Italian man with silver-gray hair.
The guy was sharp-tongued and bad-tempered, but he was handsome, cultured, and hardworking. Even the shop's business began to pick up thanks to his good looks.
Aside from my brother picking up strange babies every time he went out, and the clients and cases being stranger and more outrageous than the last, everything was moving toward a wonderful life.
Until one day...
A strange woman rushed in carrying some bizarre food and tearfully accused us of human trafficking.
The Italian guy clung to her, calling her "Sis," then collapsed after being fed poisonous food.
The baby in the cow-print outfit pulled out a bazooka, crying and trying to rush in. The Chinese-style baby grabbed him and frantically tried to stop him.
The baby in the hat calmly sipped tea and watched the show, then calmly pushed aside the bazooka aimed at him... what?
Tsuna from the class next door rushed in to explain what was going on, while Yamamoto beside him laughed and said, "What a lively scene."
In the end, my brother and I both received invitations to join the Mafia.
"..."
Nooo! We just quit another Mafia!
Theme: Life should be full of flavor
Do you have to say that the sandwich is not delicious against your will, haha
I thought I would have a chat with Brother Gao Ming [Sunglasses]
Why are Scotch Core products sold out... It feels more like they are under-produced than sold out...
Scotland is actually on the run. Why is there news that he was transferred to Hokkaido Prison?
"Stop and prophesy" is a big bug for the author~ Desire
Rum really has a deep love for sushi
It's progressing so fast, why don't we all just break up?
I'm more curious about what's special about her 🍉
"I noticed that he was slightly tense," which gave the author a big bug~ Why?
"Edogawa Conan strongly agrees" This is a big bug for the author~ Less.
