Mystery
ep. 33 - by. Ggwaenggwaengi
[Taehyung's point of view]
Jeon Jungkook, who had been staring blankly at the empty sky with his eyes wide open, smirked as he lowered his gaze. To think he'd seen this kid, the one I believed was actively working to find the mastermind behind the student disappearances, in such a state? Even I thought it was enough to make him a laughing stock.
It was a sad story, but even so, Jeon Jungkook's actions were inappropriate compared to the pain he had suffered. I resented Jeon Jungkook for venting his anger and drowning me in a labyrinth of incomprehensible events. You, who always seemed so calm, were just this kind of brat.
Rather, this Jeon Jeong-guk's appearance seemed even more cowardly and foolish. He looked like a madman, unable to escape the endlessly gnawing resentment of the past.
In an instant, countless thoughts like these flashed through my mind. But even in the midst of all this, Jeon Jungkook continued to stare at me with the same posture and expression.
No, perhaps the change in expression was subtle. If earlier it had simply been a cruel gaze, a wicked expression, and the corners of his mouth forced up in a grimace, contrasting with his trembling lips.
Was it just a mixture of resentment and regret now?
I don't really know. I just have a knack for staying calm in any situation...

김여주
This isn't the situation I'm thinking of right now, it's not that kind of situation...
전정국
I'm sorry, that's the situation.

Jeon Jungkook's arm, which had been supporting my weight with one hand, seemed to be slowly loosening. Perhaps it was the effect of Kim Yeo-ju's appearance. Jeon Jungkook looked away from the flustered Kim Yeo-ju and then said nothing.
Her dilated pupils, trembling tears, and stiffened body movements clearly showed just how panicked Kim Yeo-ju was. She must have believed him. She must have trusted and relied on Jeon Jung-kook the most. And seeing him as the real culprit must have been quite a shock.
Kim Yeo-ju, clutching the warehouse wall and gasping for breath, was a sight that anyone could only see as pitiful. Seeing her for the first time, I, too, couldn't help but feel bewildered, as she shook her head, then clutched it, and squeezed her eyes shut.
I pushed Jeon Jungkook away, who seemed about to collapse, and ran to Kim Yeo-ju. I, too, was struggling to keep my composure, but Kim Yeo-ju realized that Jeon Jungkook was the one responsible for all the atrocities that had occurred. And...
Because I'm the only one who's sane among Jeon Jungkook who talked about the past that he doesn't even want to remember.
I turned around, holding onto Kim Yeo-ju, who seemed to have lost consciousness and whose eyes were closed, and Jeon Jung-kook, too, had a relieved expression. How should I interpret this situation? It felt like a supporting actor, always relegated to the sidelines, had suddenly become the main character, garnering attention I'd never had before.
It was just so complicated. I wanted to collapse here, too. But then I thought of Min Yoongi, who was biting his nails, racked with guilt, and Kim Namjoon, who would try to stop him. I couldn't do that.
Kim Yeo-ju has always trusted Jeon Jung-kook. And she's always tried to find the culprit. She's even tried to find evidence...
And Jeon Jungkook is the mastermind. He even tried to kidnap Kim Yeo-joo and me. Even if there's a story behind it, taking out his betrayal of Byun Baek-hyun on us is a truly grave offense.
but...
But, it's Jeon Jungkook. It's Jeon Jungkook who's still having a hard time, and it's Jeon Jungkook who hasn't talked about how hard it is until now.
I feel like the person I need to help right now is Jeon Jungkook.
I had no choice but to run to Jeon Jungkook, who was about to collapse on his knees, breathing heavily, without even having time to wipe away the tears that were falling down his face.
