“No matter what you do, nothing will change.”
"Who are you!!!!"
Beep-... Beep-...
Namjoon looked down at his phone and bit his lips as the call suddenly ended.
"who is this?"
“Ah…! Just, the police side haha, regarding the accident we had!”
“Something feels fishy... What’s going on, huh?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
"...lie."
“…….”
“Even if I look like an idiot with no memory, don’t think I don’t know everything.”
Namjoon averted his eyes.
“.... I said no,”
Jihye looked at Namjoon quietly and then turned around.
“.... Don’t hide even a single speck of dust from me.”
"Heh..."
"It's scary... If you do that too... I don't even remember..."
Namjoon unconsciously looked at Jihye's small shoulders and hugged her tightly.
"I won't hide it. And I won't make it hard for you. I'm completely sincere about this."
"Chee- Okay.. It's cold, so go in quickly."
The next day, at the police station.
Jimin came running out of breath.
“Hey, I found some weird CCTV footage.”
"...?? What's strange?"
“This is footage from the underground parking lot of Hwayeon headquarters two days before Nam Ji-hye went missing. This is data that Hwayeon also hid… So they had to smuggle it in with difficulty?”
“Yeah, you’re great~ So what was captured there?”
“Who gave Nam Ji-hye an envelope? I can’t see her face because her hat is pulled down low...”
Seokjin, who came in shortly after, continued speaking.
“And right after that, it looks like Hwayeon’s side replaced all the CCTVs. Doesn’t that seem a bit strange?”
Namjoon stared blankly at the screen.
“.... An envelope.....”
"But Nam Ji-hye's reaction is strange. She took out a document and ran off somewhere with it."
"Documents... hmm, first of all, move this video to a safe place."
“Okay, but what do we do now?”
"Yesterday... I got a call from someone I don't know. I think there's someone who knows that Nam Ji-hye isn't dead."
Jimin screamed in surprise.
"Wh...what??? I knew it!!!! I told you it was dangerous!!"
“First, we need to move Nam Ji-hye to another place. I’ve prepared a safe place for her. I’ll take her tonight.”
Seokjin sighed.
“Now, it’s almost like a couple running away…”
"Brother, are we going there then? Our country hideout?"
"That's right, we have to go quietly, so Jimin, you take care of it."
"Yes, detective! ^^7"
Namjoon finished work and went home early.
"You're here? You must be tired~"
“Wisdom, today we… I think we need to leave this house for a bit.”
"...uh?"
“Well, the plumbing in our house is a bit... broken? They need to fix it, so I think I’ll have to stay somewhere else for a while.”
Jihye paused for a moment and then said.
“If we go together… it doesn’t matter where we go..!!”
“…Thank you. Did anything hurt today?”
"Huh haha, the whole day passed by while I was reading a book?"
"Haha, that's good. Let's just pack our bags and leave right away."
"Right...? Is it that urgent?"
"Huh..? Oh, so that's how it turned out...!"
"Okay, I'll get ready right now!"
11 o'clock at night.
Namjoon and Jihye were driving along the outskirts road toward their country hideout.
“Wow… This is really the countryside. I can really see the stars.”
"Haha, you like stars, huh? This is my friend's vacation home. It's in the countryside, so the scenery must be pretty."
Jihye muttered as she looked out the car window.
“I don’t think I’ve ever been to a place like this… Does it feel familiar? It’s strange…”
Tiring, ti ...
"Huh? You're calling. Jimin?"
"Oh, would you take that?"
Namjoon put on his earphones and answered the phone.
"hello?"
Jimin kept looking at the rearview mirror and then spoke quietly.
“Brother, there’s a car following me behind. I don’t feel good.”
Namjoon turned his head.
“…What? Since when have you been following me… Tailing???”
“I’ve been following you for 10 minutes. I’ll shake you off for now… Can you go somewhere else?”
"shit…"
Jimin turned the steering wheel sharply.
“I’ll take the emergency route.”
“Wisdom, fasten your seat belt.”
"Huh...? Got it...!"
The car turned onto a dark mountain road.
The car behind was soon following Jimin's car.
“... Are we being chased right now?”
“I think there’s someone who has a grudge against me. Haha. Don’t worry, Jihye, I won’t let you get hurt.”
"..... Be careful, honey...."
"First, let's go to my grandmother's house. It should be somewhere near here..."
"Huh...Grandma's house?!!?"
"Uncomfortable...?? Oh, then...."
"Ah... no!!! Grandma's house is fine!!"
"Oh... Okay, okay, I'll take a picture of the navigation because the situation is urgent."
Namjoon and Jihye ended up going to their grandmother's house.
