Days later
Okay, Kook, I'm going to show you what I found. You need to stay calm. I know it's complicated, but you'll need to know now. I also wanted to tell you that I've already made progress on our work for the recruitment round. There's only a week left, so we'll talk about that.
-Okay, Taehyung, I'm ready.
-Taehyung opens his computer and shows Jungkook a series of files-
"It can't be!" Jungkook exclaimed.
"Well, you've been through a long ordeal, I'm so sorry. These people are your family and friends. You've always seemed to have a knack for technology; you're very intelligent. I promise we'll go and find those memories. You'll be able to see them, and if you wish, you can stay there. Just be patient. Something very strange is happening, and we'll find out the truth."

"Okay, the heads of the other departments have already sent the recruitment plan, and this is it. So, it's up to us to design the chip. In each round, we have to check that the previously created one doesn't have any flaws and, if necessary, modify it so we can multiply it and have enough for the people who will arrive," Taehyung explains.
-Sounds interesting, what should I be in charge of?
"Well, I think the first thing we should do is get a supply of the memory-erasing gas from the doctor. We probably won't have any problems. Then I'll test you to see if you're immune to it or not. After we have the results, we can design a chip based on the DNA that may or may not be suitable for that gas, and then..." Kook interrupts Taehyung. "But this will significantly help missions of this type, and many people will continue to lose their families, their happy lives, their friendships, and beautiful memories."
—Taehyung, be quiet for a moment.— What you say is true, but it's what I have to do. It would be very suspicious if we didn't do anything about it, unless…
"Unless what?" Kook asks.
Unless we create a chip coded to our own specifications...
-What do you mean, Taehyung?
-Well, I'm saying that, maybe, just maybe, we can design a chip according to certain conditions that benefit us and them too. I mean, if we could restore their memories after they've been through the gas or allow them to remember certain things, it would be wonderful. They could remember their families, and so, through a study, we could discover the truth behind all of this.
-Sounds... amazing, huh? I like the idea. When do we start?
-Wait, Gguk, this could be really dangerous, we have to keep this very secret, we'll start tomorrow... That's enough for today, let's go home.
------------------------
-Hi, darling, it's so good to see you, you arrived very early
-Hi Tete, I did it, I'm so excited
-Hey, it shows... guess what!
-What's happening?
-Okay, I've got the gas we need, we'll start right away. Ready?
"I am," says Kook, as he gets on the stretcher.
"Don't worry, it'll take a little while," Taehyung said, injecting a small needle into Gguk's arm to draw some blood while connecting the gas to the respirator mask.

-We're finished, Kook, are you feeling okay?
-I... Mmm well, I think I feel a little strange, but I'm fine.
"Rest, don't push yourself. I'll call someone to take you home and..." Jungkook interrupts him.
-I'll stay here with you, I want it to be that way.
-Okay, I'll order some food. I need you as a replacement, because there are only three days left to deliver the final chip to the mission.

Hey, I've been pretty MIA with this AU lately. My studies and personal life have been keeping me very busy, and now I'm on vacation, so I wanted to get this done early. I hope you'll forgive me and that you like it. I'll be more active with this, so don't miss out—the story's going to get really good.
