Captured (31) Discovered
* Warning: Trigger warning for profanity/drugs/kidnapping
Jungkook parked his car on the side of the road and began to climb the mountain. Haeju's GPS signal suddenly cut off. At the last point of reception, Jungkook was at a loss.
If I go down into a tunnel or underground, it might not explode... But as I kept looking around, I soon saw a building surrounded by a black tent in the distance.
The building looks very sturdy for a warehouse...
The building, with only an elevator tower jutting out from the top, seemed to have an elevator leading down to the basement. Suspicious, Jeongguk approached, but the CCTV camera at the entrance prevented him from entering.... What should I do... Should I go in or not......
Beep
Just then, the receiver I was wearing rang. It was a distress signal from Haeju.
"Damn it!!"
He looked for the location where the signal had burst, and it was this building. Jeongguk's mind raced as he wondered how to get in.
. . .
"No, who put this on our Haeju's face?
Take that thing off your head,
"Let's look at our pretty Haeju's face."
The stranger behind me ripped off the black cloth he was wearing on his head at Kim Taehyung's words. The sudden flash of light dazzled my eyes, but as I adjusted, I saw Kim Taehyung sitting leisurely on the sofa over there. Taehyung slowly rose from his seat with a mean smile.
""Don't come near me..!!"
I screamed. But Kim Taehyung, what should I say... had a relaxed expression, as if my screaming had no effect at all. He approached with slow steps. As I grumbled and tried to undo my externalized arms and strike, three assailants quickly approached and grabbed my shoulders. I was forced to the cement floor by the assailants' force.
"Hey... Should we calm down a bit...?"
Kim Taehyung approached and took out a syringe from the table. Then, he flicked the syringe containing liquid with his finger to make the air bubbles escape.
"This is... the drug that your father developed to prevent externalization...
Do you know why I was against this drug?
If the people get this,
"I feel so ashamed, I feel like shit"
"You, what are you doing..??"
"And I also developed a drug that prevents externalized states from being released. After developing a drug that prevents externalization, I figured it wouldn't be difficult to develop this drug.
I figured out one mechanism,
One is to strengthen the mechanism,
One is to temporarily release the mechanism..."
As Kim Taehyung approached, the assailants around me grabbed me, preventing me from moving. I externalized my arms and legs as much as possible. As I exerted all my strength to move, the assailants who had been holding me trembled as if they were having a hard time handling me.
"Don't let this go..?!!!"
Kim Taehyung didn't care about me like that.
"Haha, our Haeju is also strong...
Anyway, I have to admit that you guys have some strength...
"And that ferocity and audacity that doesn't diminish no matter what kind of sect you meet... When you encounter them, the aura of a raccoon can't be contained and just bursts out, so even we, who are sects of higher rank than you, are sometimes surprised..."
"hey!!!!"
As Kim Taehyung came closer, I cursed. The distinctive leopard pattern appeared on his face and he began to press down on me with his energy.
Kuk...!
The needle pierced my shoulder. If you push too hard, even needles can break, but it seemed to be a special needle, piercing my tense shoulder muscles. At the same time, my body lost all strength. Perhaps the medication in the syringe was to prevent externalization.
"Ah...fuck..."
This situation, where all the strength was draining from my body, was so disgusting. As I lost strength, the strength with which the assailants held me weakened. As I lost strength, they forced me to sit next to Kim Taehyung.
"The drug that Haedan developed to prevent externalization was quite stable.
There are no side effects, and the effects wear off over time.
But the drug I developed to maintain externalization had a major problem. If administered repeatedly, it wouldn't humanize... All the people participating in the clinical trial suddenly turned into animals.
Okay, so let's see how I dealt with those animals today.. "
"Crazy kid..no way..."
Even though Kim Taehyung didn't say anything specific, I felt like I knew what he meant. My expression contorted as I felt like I was going to get sick of his cruelty.
"Oh my, is our Haeju angry...?
"It wouldn't do any good for you to be so angry at me..."
Kim Taehyung came and squatted down in front of me.
"okay, The hunting festival is like that. "The middle class releases their instincts, and I deal with people who have become animals..."
Phew!
I got angry and spat in Kim Taehyung's face. The attendant next to Kim Taehyung quickly held out a handkerchief. He then took the handkerchief, wiped his face, and gave instructions to the attendants. Soon, the attendant took out a piece of duct tape.
"This bad boy..!!! Aaak!!"
As I screamed and screamed to escape the guards' grasp, the assailants joined in and ended up duct-taping my mouth. Kim Taehyung watched me with a smile, as if he found me amused.
Ugh...
"why, Haejoo... Are you trying to turn your back on me?
Just show me a little bit of yourself and I'll give you a lot of things...
Now we have a huge membership group...
You don't think only badgers are here, do you?
Besides, you, Heukhaeju, are also a member of this group.So, you know as much as you want, right?"
Kim Taehyung, who was talking, poured some liquor into a glass next to the sofa as if he was going to drink. Then, suddenly, an attendant approached Kim Taehyung and said something to him.
"Oh, these salty little bastards... are a headache...!"
It seemed like the police had raided the scene.
Looking at the distant screen, I could see the police taking away the members. Numerous CCTVs were showing many people being taken away by the police who had raided the area at once.
Kim Taehyung seemed to be checking the situation by zooming in and out on various screens. Fortunately, I didn't even send a signal, but it seemed like he had timed the attack on his own.
But no one will come here. Everyone will be at the Golf Country Club. Will they realize I'm gone until the incident is resolved? For a moment, I felt miserable, left behind.
""I still don't know where the information came from??
When Kim Taehyung asked the attendant, the attendant shook his head.
"First of all, the police I can't find it here...
It's also our private property...
Jimin, you should stay here a little longer and then go..."
Kim Taehyung asked Park Jimin, who was standing and watching the situation.
"Okay, you crazy bastard,
I'll stop here.
What you asked me to do was to bring Haejoo.
I'm going to leave now."
Park Jimin seemed to be about to leave. When Jimin's gaze shifted to me, he shook his head desperately, as if asking me to take him with me. Then Kim Taehyung looked at me and turned my head towards him.
"No, Haejoo... You have to go with me...
"Once you meet me, you can't escape me."
Kim Taehyung whispered to me. I hated the feeling so much that goosebumps ran down my arms and all the way to the top of my head.
"hey, Kim Taehyung, you really need to take it easy.
I'm starting to find it hard to watch...
"I'm going now...?"
When Park Jimin spoke, Kim Taehyung saideffort~ and greeted him.
Jimin, who suddenly externalized into a crow, flew up and disappeared to where the elevator was. I was a little surprised that there was someone who could externalize so perfectly in an instant.
"Isn't it cool how our Jimin changes? Haejoo. "
Kim Tae-hyung, sitting next to me, explained while gesturing with one hand as if he was drawing a picture.
"Jimin has a level of externalizing control that's almost my ideal. He's the object of my admiration. Isn't he really cool?
My goal with Haedan was to control externalization at will.
Our ultimate goal was to perfectly control the externalization of others and our own externalization.
So while we were developing the drug, I really thought that my brother and I were people who dreamed of the same ideal."
Kim Taehyung took a sip of his drink, looking at where Jimin had disappeared, and continued talking as if mumbling.
"But after completing the project to some extent and talking about how to use the drug,
Our directions were completely different..
My brother and I tried to use what we developed in different ways.
But I don't care about the means and methods for what I want to do...?
It's really disconcerting when my brother, who was against me, suddenly says he's taking all the patents he developed.I couldn't help it.
And I never thought I'd meet you like this...
I feel like my brother and I still have a strong bond...”
I was so disgusted by the man talking next to me. I was curious about my father's story, but I didn't want to hear it from the person who hurt him. I kept thinking about various situations in my head, such as how I could get out of this situation and how I could catch Kim Taehyung and beat him up.
Kim Taehyung, who was next to me, linked arms with me and began to explain his ideals at length. But then, as he was talking excitedly while drawing pictures in the air, Kim Taehyung's hands suddenly stopped.
"Huh...? What is this in your pocket..?"
Kim Taehyung's face seemed to harden slightly.
Then, the signal device that was in the inside pocket was taken out by Kim Taehyung.
