Special Investigation Team BTS 2

EP 10. The Murder of a Member of the National Assembly (4)

Seokjin and Namjoon entered the third-floor room with the congressman's wife. The wife sat down, her trembling body clutching her flushed cheek with one hand.

김석진

"Madam, we're about to begin the interrogation. You know you can't lie, right?"

“…Devil. That woman is a devil…….”

김석진

"Excuse me, ma'am?"

"That woman... that woman is a devil!!!!!!"

The woman suddenly screamed and sat up. She reached out as if to scratch Seokjin's face with her fingernails, but luckily, Namjoon, who was standing next to her, caught her hand before it touched Seokjin's face and lowered it with force.

Seokjin, who was carefully observing his wife's reaction, exchanged glances with Namjoon and then carefully contacted the National Forensic Service on his phone.

"Please check if there is any psychiatric medication prescribed by the psychiatrist in the wife's room."

김남준

"Now, calm down. Madam, what did you talk about with the victim before you came here?"

“That woman is a devil… a devil… You must never mess with her… a devil… a devil….”

김남준

"Haa... Ms. Kim Soon-ok!!!!!"

When the interrogation didn't progress, Namjoon banged on the desk, calling his wife's name loudly. Startled, his wife shrugged, and Seokjin watched her in silence.

김남준

"Who is this demon you keep talking about? Is he related to the victim?"

“Why do you keep asking…. You saw it earlier!!!! The woman who slapped me!!!! Huh, aren’t you listening here right now…? Run away, you have to run away right now. Hurry up!!!!”

If you're talking about the woman who slapped you... you're talking about Yeon Yeo-ju. Namjoon tilted his head at the unexpected name. She didn't seem like the kind of person who would call someone a devil just because they slapped her. Was there something he didn't know?

"Didn't you see that woman's eyes?! I almost... I almost died... I didn't even feel that kind of murderous intent from Kim Hyun-woong!!!! Are you guys in cahoots with that woman?! Are you in cahoots with her!!!"

김남준

"Stop it. The person you're talking about now, Madam, is a police officer like us."

"Can the police just hit people without permission?!??? Who am I!!!! What did I do to deserve that woman!!!! That woman... is not just crazy. She is seriously crazy!!!"

김석진

"Excuse me, ma'am. You hit our child too."

김석진

"Are you acting like a scapegoat in front of the police now? You're showing off your hypocrisy like this."

Seokjin, who had been quietly listening to his wife, couldn't stand it any longer and opened his mouth. "If the female lead hadn't stepped forward in that situation, all seven of them would have probably been in an uproar. I was secretly grateful, but I shouldn't have said it like that."

"If you hadn't gotten slapped by the heroine, you would have gotten kicked by us. Do you understand?"

"If you don't want to be branded a criminal, shut up and sit down."

Namjoon pressed his wife's shoulder against his, who was trembling and staring blankly at Seokjin. She felt tired even before they'd started.

Meanwhile, Hoseok, Taehyung, and Jungkook, who had gone to meet the witness, Park Chunbae, were momentarily frozen in an unexpected place. The hospital, the room, the location where Kim Yeoju was last seen.

Even the color of the blanket and curtains were the same. Apparently, they'd requested a change on the day of the funeral... Taehyung, who had come to his senses the fastest of the three, approached the witness lying on the bed.

김태형

"…excuse me."

“…What? Police?”

김태형

"You know Congressman Kim Hyun-joong, right? I heard he was a witness to that incident. Could we talk for a moment?"

"I have nothing more to say. If it's him... I have even less to say."

Despite Taehyung's polite words, the witness did not turn around and instead pulled the blanket up to cover himself.

Taehyung took a step back, wondering if he was still in shock, and Hoseok, who was behind him, pulled the blanket down.

"Wh, what, what is it!!!!"

“What are you doing now?”

Hoseok's voice resonated low.

Hoseok saw the witness pull his phone out of his pocket before pulling the blanket up. Judging by the way he covered his head with the blanket, it seemed like we, the police, weren't supposed to know.

As expected, the witness was using his cell phone to exchange messages with someone else. Jungkook snatched the phone from the witness's hand.

전정국

"The caller ID is blocked. Who is this?"

"He, he's just my son!!! Give him back!!!"

정호석

"You're in contact with your son, why did you hide it from us? You could have just contacted him."

정호석

"I guess there's something you don't want us to know about, Mr. Park Chun-bae."

At Hoseok's words, the witness's hands trembled slightly and he held back his words. Jungkook, still holding his phone, hadn't even finished checking the messages. The witness sat up in bed and bit Jungkook's hand, which was holding the phone.

전정국

"Ahhh!!!"

"Let go!!!"

The phone, which I thought would fall off at any moment, was still clinging to Jungkook's hand. Jungkook threw the phone from his bitten hand to Taehyung, then used his free hand to subdue the witness in one swift motion.

"Ah!!! Can you treat this old man so carelessly!!!! Aah!!!"

전정국

"I got slapped and bitten all day, my luck is really fucking bad, damn it."

전정국

"I'm going to charge you for all of this, so just stay still, Grandpa."

Jungkook forcefully twisted the witness's arm and slammed his head against the wall. Taehyung searched through the phone Jungkook had handed him and checked the messages.

김태형

“What is all this….”

정호석

"Why, what is it?"

The messages Taehyung and Hoseok confirmed were from a conversation they had only had today. It seemed they had kept changing their phone numbers, fearing the police might find them.

"Today is the day. You haven't forgotten your plans, have you?"

"Yes. I remember."

"If the plan succeeds, your son will be able to sleep peacefully now. Thank you for your hard work this past week, Mr. Park Chun-bae."

정호석

“…What was the plan?”

"I... I don't know anything. I don't know anything!!!"

정호석

“Huh… Taehyung, contact Seokjin hyung. Mr. Park Chunbae, he’s changed from a witness to a suspect.”

As Hoseok finished speaking, Jeongguk handcuffed him, invoking the Miranda Rights. He was no longer a witness, but a suspect. There was no need to treat him with courtesy.

No....... I really love how you're so good at texting....... (I don't have much to do) But it does give me some space, I really like it, I'm very satisfied, very satisfied!! The standards are the same. You can post up to 1.5 comments, and spamming comments is strictly prohibited!!
