Special Investigation Team BTS Complete
EP 05. The Lipstick Murders (3)
김태형
"The operation is all...?"
김남준
"Seokjin hyung and I... well, first of all, the female lead...."
민윤기
"The culprit is... you said. But... you said?"
전정국
"The incident is happening right now... In the midst of all this...?"
김석진
"Public security is the most …… thing. Why are you …… doing this, Jeongguk?"
Light comes in through closed eyes and someone's voice pierces my ears.
There were also occasional murmurs of anger, and several people were speaking so it didn't sound like complete sentences.
김여주
"Ugh...."
When I finally woke up from my slumber, I saw my team members gathered at a desk, discussing things intently.
As soon as she took a deep breath, the smell of alcohol hit her, causing her to frown and grab her head. Hoseok, sensing the presence, handed the glass to Yeoju with one hand.
정호석
"Are you awake? Your head hurts bad. Drink some honey water."
김여주
“Yes? Ah… yes. Thank you….”
Yeo-ju, who had accepted the glass that Hoseok had handed her without thinking and slowly sipped the warm honey water, blinked at the strange feeling she felt and looked at Hoseok.
김여주
“Uh… but why am I here…? Did I go to work already…?”
When did you go to work?
I couldn't remember at all, so I mustered up my courage and asked. Hoseok chuckled and got up with the glass that Yeoju had finished drinking.
정호석
"You were the first to go to work, right? But you're the heroine."
김여주
"yes?"
정호석
"Why are you using formal language? Didn't we agree to use informal language?"
김여주
"Huh? What is that…?"
Huh!
After tilting her head for a moment after hearing what Hoseok said, Yeoju felt memories she didn't even know were unfolding before her eyes like a movie, and tried to cover her surprised mouth with both hands.
전정국
"Hey, stop clinging to me. It's heavy."
김여주
"Hey- I'm not heavy! But why do you guys keep... calling me a heroine!!"
전정국
"…what?"
김여주
"Don't bother me and ignore me! I just want to be friends with you!"
전정국
"What, what? Hey, you, uh, uh…? Hey!"
김남준
"The scope is narrowed down to about this much... Huh? Ms. Yeoju...? Why with Mr. Jeongguk?"
김여주
"Hello, Republic of Korea Army! I am Second Lieutenant Kim Yeo-ju!"
민윤기
"…?"
김석진
"What is it, Miss Yeoju, have you been drinking?"
전정국
"Haa, haa… This is so fucking hard, really. I'm sorry. I, I, I don't know Kim Yeo-ju's home address… I thought it wouldn't be right to just bring her to my house, so we brought her together."
정호석
"I see you all had a drink. Even Jungkook smells like alcohol, doesn't he?"
김여주
"Oh my! That damn thing! Oh my! Oh my!"
정호석
"…yes?"
김여주
"Are you going to keep on whining so heartlessly? Come on, call me, lady!"
정호석
“Uh… Miss Yeoju, you’re really drunk right now.”
김여주
"Oh! I told you to call me!"
정호석
“…My lady.”
김여주
"Right! Other people, hurry up and open it too!"
전정국
"I guess I'll just have to pretend to do it for now. I'll never lose. Sigh...
김석진
"Yeah, lady, is this good? I'll bring you more, so put that down, quickly-"
민윤기
"Some kid took my radio..."
김석진
"Huh, huh? Oh, Yoongi. The female protagonist's hands are no joke, they won't let go... I'll take them out right away. Just wait a moment."
김여주
"Ugh! Bad words! Who said that!"
민윤기
"……."
김남준
"Oh, no, ma'am."
김여주
"You! You! Who told you to use such bad language! You should only use harsh language!"
민윤기
"ha……."
"When you wake up, your neck will be a little stiff."
… I remembered.
김여주
"Haha... I, I was a bit rude. Sorry, Aya!"
정호석
"Why, why, heroine? Where does it hurt?"
김여주
"Back, the back of my neck..."
민윤기
"……."
Did you really knock her out?! By getting drunk and causing trouble?!
It seemed as if I could hear the voice that had spoken clearly while looking straight ahead again.
'When you wake up, the back of your neck will be a little stiff.'
Oh my goosebumps are running down my entire body.
김태형
“Ugh… Lady, come here quickly. I was just explaining the operation.”
김여주
"Oh, yes, senior!"
As if she had been waiting, Yeoju got up from her seat and ran to Taehyung, and Hoseok tidied up the blanket that Yeoju had not been able to put away because she had gotten up in a hurry.
김석진
"I won't say anything about drinking after work, but if it causes problems at work, I'll be on duty right away. Understood?"
김태형
"Yes, of course."
김여주
"…yes!"
The female protagonist opened her eyes wide and looked at Seokjin, and Seokjin nodded with a smirk.
Jungkook, who was standing next to them, looked at the two alternately with a look of displeasure, but no one noticed.
김남준
"Okay, then I'll explain the plan properly."
김남준
"First of all, since Yeoju was the first to discover the note, she needs to be careful for the time being. So, I'm thinking of living in the West until this case is resolved. What do you think?"
김여주
"Yes, it's okay."
김남준
"Good. And I'm sorry, Yeoju, but we plan to make the most of your danger. Of course, we'll protect you."
Everyone seemed to have heard Namjoon's words beforehand, and even after Namjoon finished speaking, they looked at Yeoju without saying anything.
Exploiting risk... Actually, that might be a very unpleasant statement. It's like creating the possibility of victims in order to catch the culprit.
but.
김여주
"Yes, Army Kim Yeo-ju, you can do it."
I am a soldier and I am currently working with the police.
Since the order has been given, it must be accepted.
김남준
"Yes, so from now on, it looks like Yeoju will have to do the night patrol every day. The people patrolling with her will change constantly, so save the numbers of everyone here."
김석진
"They said to come because the results are out, but who wants to go to the National Forensic Service?"
박지민
"I'll go."
김석진
“Jimin? Then… Yoongi should come too.”
민윤기
"What? Why me,"
김석진
"Two people. Have you forgotten? And...
"Where did the question 'why' come from?"
"You don't know how to be picky, do you, kid?"
민윤기
"……."
As Seokjin spoke with a serious expression, Yoongi ruffled his hair and left the room.
But it looks like he's about to open the police station door and go out, but he doesn't open the door and go out.
Yoongi paused for a moment, holding the doorknob, then turned around and looked at Jimin.
민윤기
"What are you doing? Aren't you going?"
박지민
“…Ah. I’m going.”
Jimin followed Yoongi who called him, and only then did Seokjin's expression soften, he smiled and clapped his hands once.
김석진
"Okay, so let's hear about the victim's boyfriend? Was there anything strange?"
정호석
“Yes. Other than the fact that we’re getting married next month, nothing much….”
김석진
"She's the bride-to-be... I should contact Yoon-gi and ask if there's a ring on the victim's finger."
김석진
“Okay, then the morning patrol… Jungkook and Namjoon will do it. It looks like Jungkook will have to patrol all day today, is that okay?”
전정국
"……."
Did he remember Jungkook's complaint about being in charge of security? Seokjin asked, looking at Jungkook subtly.
But everyone here knew that this wasn't a question of whether something was really okay, but rather a simple yes.
전정국
“…Yes, it’s okay.”
김석진
"Okay. Hoseok and Yeoju, there's a training ground upstairs, so train there, and there's a case file over there, so organize it. I'm not leaving it here for you to play with, so don't be loose."
김여주
"yes!"
I might meet the culprit in person, so I should take this opportunity to train and strengthen my body.
