Special Investigation Team BTS 2
EP 33. Foxy's Doll Shop (12)
"What the heck is this!!!!"
전정국
"Oh, are you the owner of the Foxy Doll Shop?"
“…Yes, I am the owner.”
전정국
"You are under arrest as a member of the drug cartel Kathartish. You have the right to an attorney and the opportunity to defend yourself."
As the police officers, who the special investigation team had requested to assist in the investigation, were moving all the items from the Foxy Doll Shop into a car while wearing gas masks, a man who introduced himself as the owner of the Foxy Doll Shop jumped out and blocked Jeong-guk's path.
Jungkook quietly watched the man standing in front of him, then checked the white powder on the man's fingertips. Without a moment's hesitation, he turned the man's shoulder and took out the handcuffs.
After restraining the man and attempting to handcuff him, the man, startled, suddenly shoved Jeongguk's shoulder and stepped back. Unlike his previous attitude of bowing before entering, he puffed out his chest, raised his head, and glared at Jeongguk with an arrogant air.
"What the heck, you guys!!!! Are you all just police officers?!?! What?! Drugs?! Ma~drugs?!"
전정국
"Huh... Hey."
"I don't know what's going on with Qatar, so everyone give me back my stuff and go!!! If you're going to rip off my store, issue a warrant for it!!!"
Jungkook placed his hand on his forehead as the man shouted at him, demanding he hand over the warrant first. He sighed and summoned up all his remaining patience to open his mouth to explain, but someone's hand was extended before him.
김남준
"Article 1, Paragraph 3 of the Special Investigation Unit Code of Conduct. A warrant may be issued without a judge's judgment."
“…What…what?”
김남준
"So, I can arrest you without a warrant, that's what I'm saying. Over there!! Take this guy away!!!"
At Namjoon's shout, two police officers carrying items approached, grabbed the man's arms, and led him to a police car. Jungkook, dumbfounded by Namjoon's sudden appearance, approached him.
전정국
"Hey, where have you been? Why are you coming back now? And what about Article 1, Paragraph 3 of the Special Investigation Unit Code of Conduct? Wasn't it only up to Paragraph 2?"
김남준
"I was a little late because I had to meet with the President and the National Assembly to discuss the issuance of the warrant. But the bill passed, so you'll forgive me, right?"
Namjoon chuckled, waving the newly passed code of conduct. Even the special investigation unit can issue warrants...
전정국
"Dude, you're so cool."
Jungkook gave a heartfelt exclamation and gave a thumbs up.
Meanwhile, Ho-seok, who had remained at the police station for Seung-yeon and Dayeon's sake, tried to coax Dayeon into testifying by making her cocoa. He asked her questions like, "Have you ever met anyone suspicious?" and "Why were you holding Seung-yeon's hand?", but Dayeon simply shook her head.
Seungyeon, who was holding Dayeon's hand, patted Dayeon on the back, telling her not to act so hastily, and Dayeon opened her mouth and said, "Mister…."
정호석
"huh?"
“The old man said… If you go down… there’s a big bus passing by… and my mom is there…”
연여주
"Mom?"
While at the police station, Yeo-ju, who had been listening to the whole story from Ho-seok, approached Dayeon, who was gradually regaining her memories, leaving Yeon-jun lying next to her.
Yeonjun, who happened to overhear the conversation, focused on Dayeon's words, and Dayeon shook her shoulders in surprise at the female lead approaching her, then shook her head.
“I, I don’t know… It’s just that, I… I have a mom…”
"They must have mistaken me for their mother. When Hoseok was little, he would often get lost, so we used to hold hands and walk around together."
정호석
"Dayeon, you said only mom is there? And dad?"
“Dad… said he wasn’t there….”
최연준
"Sabra."
연여주
"what?"
Yeoju and Hoseok, who were standing next to Dayeon and Seungyeon, immediately turned their heads at Yeonjun's words. "Suddenly, Sabra? What does that mean?"
최연준
"There are three executives in Qatar. Saita, Sabra, and Psyche. You all probably know this."
At Yeonjun's words, Hoseok and Yeoju nodded simultaneously. Hoseok sat down, the conversation likely to be lengthy. Yeonjun, still with a stern expression, continued, glancing back and forth between Hoseok and Yeoju.
최연준
"Here, Psyche is in charge of the drug manufacturing and testing sites. Sabra handles the selling and manufacturing of the drugs themselves. Boss Saita oversees all of this."
연여주
"Last time, the aquarium seemed more focused on drug manufacturing and experimentation than selling drugs. Some people were even forced to participate in the experiments. So, by your words, the aquarium was in charge of Psyche?"
최연준
"Yeah. Psyche got really pissed off back then. She even fought with Sabra."
정호석
“Then, since this time the main purpose is to sell at the Foxy Doll Shop… Sabra will be in charge, right?”
최연준
"That's right. And I... suspect Sabra is the one who brainwashed that kid. The only people directly involved in drug-related matters are the executives, and Sabra is the only male among them."
If the Fed's statement were true, it implied something even more dangerous. It meant Kathartish knew the families of the special investigation team members, and perhaps even their private lives.
정호석
“…I’ll tell Seokjin hyung.”
Hoseok left the office for a moment, saying he would tell Seokjin what Yeonjun had said, and Seungyeon was busy calming Dayeon, who was frightened by the suddenly heavy atmosphere.
And then, Yeoju approached Yeonjun, who was still deep in thought, leaning against the pillow on the bed, his expression serious. Only when she waved her hand in front of his face did he come to his senses and look up at her.
연여주
"Are you really okay?"
최연준
"…what."
연여주
"I like it when you cooperate with me, or rather, with the special investigation unit. That's good, really good... But you know that the more you do that, the more dangerous you become."
Yeo-ju looked at Yeon-jun with a complex gaze. She was grateful that he was stepping up for her, but at the same time, she was worried. Whether it was Katharina or the Special Investigation Unit, it was a double-edged sword pointed at Yeon-jun.
최연준
"It's okay, I'll die by their hands anyway even if I leave now."
연여주
"but,"
최연준
"Sister. I'm the kind of guy who wouldn't be surprised if I died at any moment. It's been that way ever since our organization fell to those guys."
연여주
"……."
최연준
"I'm glad I met you, sister. I guess I'll be able to do something before I die."
연여주
“Don’t say things like that….”
I was more angry than sad. Why would he say something like that so carelessly? How could he say it in a situation like this?
Yeoju clenched her fists, and Yeonjun noticed her, but quickly looked away and pretended not to notice. Yeonjun knew that Yeoju was currently suffering greatly.
My older sister, whom I had lost when I was young and always missed, turned out to be the boss of the organization that destroyed our organization. I finally met my younger brother, whom I thought was dead, again, but his life was threatened.
It seemed like she was finally opening up to the special investigation team members, but since they still didn't know the female protagonist's true identity, she wouldn't be able to fully reveal her true feelings.
최연준
“…It’s okay. Everything will be okay.”
Yeonjun, unable to do anything for Yeoju right now, smiled bitterly and patted her shoulder. He hoped to ease her burden, even if only a little.
Wow, it seems like there's a lot of bait here 🤭
