Ep.47
-Two days later, Yeoju's class-
The school was still never quiet. As expected, Park Jimin seemed to be visiting Yeoju from the morning. It wasn't a difficult process until the students' voices, murmured from afar, reached Yeoju's ears.
"...If you were going to come right after school, why did you say hello..."
"Sister~"
The woman answered with an "Huh" at Jimin's clear voice coming from afar. Then, she saw the students splitting apart, with Jimin and his group running towards her in a hurry.
"Oh, you're here?"
"Yeah. It was just a little while, but I had a great idea.
I came running because I thought it came to mind."
"Any ideas?"
"You know that guy who came to see you on your way home from school last time?"
"Ah... that bastard...?"
The group busily cleared away the students milling around, and made sure everyone listening kept their distance, creating an environment conducive to conversation between Jimin and Yeoju.
"I'm trying to use that person named Kim Min-ju."
"...But are you sure that that person is Jeon Jungkook's weakness?"
"..."
"We're not that close,
"It seemed like a one-sided love to me."
"They're colleagues. Those two."
"colleague?"
“It felt like we had been together for a long time.
Even if Jeon Jungkook doesn't have feelings for Kim Minju...
He's not someone you can easily throw away."
"...Then how do we catch that person named Kim Min-ju?"
.
.
.
"...We have to make them bite the bait."
The woman couldn't help but feel uneasy at Jimin's slightly raised lips. Even though she was young and a woman, the woman knew that just being Jeon Jungkook's colleague meant a great deal of power.
"I'm going to call you out to the back alley of the Hive Building tonight."
"...What should I do?"
"...Sister, please wait at home."
"Can't I follow you and help you too...?"
"I don't want my sister to be in danger. Just wait..."
.
.
.
"Instead... promise me you won't get hurt."
"Of course, of course."
Contrary to her confident answer that it was obvious, Yeo-ju saw Jimin's pupils shaking at the end, but she pretended not to notice.
Jimin is the one who knows best that his body is not yet in good condition, and Yeo-ju tried to keep believing until the end that he would take care of his body on his own.
-That evening, in the alley behind the Hive Building-
"...You called me?"
Wearing high heels, heavy makeup, and flashy jewelry, she confidently entered the alleyway entrance. The person standing opposite her gave a short, blunt "yes."
"...Tell me your name first. Who are you?"
.
.
.
.
.
"My name is Kim Jennie."
"...The way you contacted me, your intentions were so obvious."
"...the reason you responded to that obvious intention
I think there will be"
“Haven’t you ever thought that it would be too obvious a story?”
"well, I like Jeon Jungkook
Is it really that far from using Jeon Jungkook?"
.
.
.
"Even if everyone at the company knows,
"I didn't know a high school student would know that in broad daylight?"
"Are you embarrassed to get caught?"
"No, haha, I'm so stupid."
“Don’t you want to test Jeon Jungkook’s sincerity at least once?”
Only then did Jenny recite the contents of the message,
Minju took her time and answered.
"If I... had brought Jeon Jungkook here
What were you going to do? If I showed you the contact information?"
"That can't be true. At work, Park Jimin was beaten to death.
When I was there, I saw your expression
You wanted to stop him, right? You were afraid that Jeon Jungkook would kill Park Jimin."
.
.
.
"...I always regretted it. What I was doing next to Jeon Jungkook
I was just a bystander, nothing more, nothing less...
"The ending was always so tragic"
“Even then, I wanted to stop Jeon Jungkook.”
"...Ugh. I know I'm just pretending to be nice, but I'm serious."
Jennie, who had been pondering for a moment, tapped her foot on the ground twice. Then, Jimin, Taehyung, Yeonjun, Hyunjin, and Byul, who had been hiding somewhere, walked out and surrounded Minju.
"...I'm sorry, but I thought that Jeon Jungkook's weakness was you.
i did it"
"I wish I was Jeon Jungkook's weakness too
"I responded to your call..."
“I will confirm Jeon Jungkook’s sincerity.
Will you follow me quietly...?
.
.
.
"I'm sorry, but that won't work."
.
.
.
"I need some assurance that you'll succeed by using me as a hostage."
"...Guarantee...?"
.
.
.
"I need to see for myself if I have the skills to beat Jeon Jungkook.
I think I'll be confident."
"...So, in the end, you're telling me to use my strength?"
