Special Investigation Team BTS Complete

EP 21. Human Trafficking (10)

They searched every room on the second floor and handcuffed anyone who wasn't armed to prevent them from escaping.

Handcuffed to the window frame and with their wrists tied, they trembled as they looked at the pile of corpses right across from them, and Namjoon, who was watching them, quietly closed the door to the room containing the corpses.

If seeing these corpses causes you to develop a mental disorder, your sentence will definitely be reduced. We absolutely cannot allow that to happen.

“It seems like there’s no one on the second floor anymore? I haven’t seen any important documents or anything….”

"There are still three floors left. I saw a rough estimate from outside earlier that there were four floors, so I'll have to go up a bit more."

"Really? Then let's go quickly."

"no."

Seokjin caught Hoseok as he headed up the stairs to the third floor, putting away his disheveled clothes.

"Those kids, I'm guarding them here because I don't know when they'll escape."

"What? Don't joke around. How can I do this alone?"

김석진

“Please.”

“…You’re serious.”

Seokjin checked how many bullets were left and tapped Namjoon's shoulder twice.

If it's not on the second floor, it's definitely on the third, Namjoon. I already checked the map and confirmed that the fourth floor is the observatory.

Seokjin couldn't bring himself to say anything and just silently headed towards the stairs to the third floor.

“…If you come back hurt, you’ll die, hyung!”

Seokjin heard Hoseok's voice shouting from behind him, half worried and half joking, but he didn't turn around and went up the stairs to the third floor.

The stairs leading to the third floor were a bit different from the stairs I had climbed so far.

As I climbed the stairs and felt I had reached the third floor, I saw a trapdoor above my head big enough for two adult men to lie down in. It was unlocked, as if it had been opened only a few minutes ago.

Clank–

Feeling uneasy, I loaded my gun and slowly walked up the stairs, aiming it at the trapdoor.

And the moment I slowly opened the door with my hand,

bang-

A gunshot rang out.

"Keukkeukkeuk... You dared to come all the way here. I commend your courage."

"Ugh...."

"You brought so many Korean police officers here? But if you underestimate me, you'll be in big trouble!!"

A man shouting with a slurred speech.

I was shot in the right shoulder from about a meter away, and as I looked up with my eyes wide open, it felt like my bones were breaking, and I saw him spitting on the floor and coming down the stairs one by one.

“We already caught one policeman, so that should have been enough of a warning… but you didn’t even notice that and barged in?”

"…이 개새끼야!!!!"

Phew–

“Don’t be so hard on yourself – if you do something wrong, your jaw will fly off.”

The man kicked Seokjin in the face, and the impact caused Seokjin to feel a ringing in his ears and blink his eyes slowly for a moment.

Blood dripping on the floor, a man getting closer, and a gun pointed at my head.

Everything was blurry and I couldn't even hear the man talking clearly.

“…Jimin. Jimin… Yeoju… Yoongi…….”

Why do these three come to mind in this situation and not others?

Because I couldn't protect you until your body was a total mess...? Because you didn't come here with me...?

"What are you talking about? It was about time for me to die, and now I'm losing my mind too."

The blurry focus returned and I saw the gun muzzle right in front of my eyes.

… Yes. No matter how tired I was, I couldn’t go on like this.

“…Hey, you little pig.”

Her sharpened eyes stared straight at the man in front of her.

"Guns aren't just for shooting."

Thump–

Seokjin grabbed the gun that had fallen on the floor and threw it at the gun barrel pointed at him.

Ppaaak–

She stood on one arm and kicked the man's head with her long leg.

He was flustered and somehow managed to fire a bullet, but the bullet missed the target due to the gun thrown by Seokjin and only hit the wall.

"아아악!!! 이 개새끼가!!!"

However, Seokjin, who had already injured one shoulder, quickly fell to the floor without being able to keep his balance. After being hit in the head by Seokjin, he barely managed to survive by hanging on to the railing. He grabbed the gun Seokjin threw and aimed it at Seokjin's head.

The situation has returned to what it was before.

"Haa, haa… As expected of a pig, he must have fat on his head too. How come, ugh, haa… his head doesn't even crack. Shit."

Seokjin now seemed to have lost all strength and fell to the floor with his eyes closed, while the man cocked his gun with his hands trembling with anger and chuckled.

"Even so, all you will get is death."

The moment the man put his hand on the trigger and was about to pull it,

Clank–

"Put that gun away right now."

"Before your head flies off."
