Special Investigation Team BTS Complete

EP 39. Sabra (1)

Familiar place, familiar people, familiar atmosphere. But to the current Yeoju, this place felt completely unfamiliar.

“…So, the situation….”

…I should definitely be sitting there, not here.

The female protagonist stared blankly at Seokjin's seat, as if she couldn't hear what he was saying. Seokjin, in response to her, continued to trail off, uncharacteristically.

The surrounding team members were no different. Jungkook and Taehyung looked at Yeoju, now in a hospital gown, with worried eyes, while Jimin and Hoseok lowered their heads with dark expressions.

Yoon-ki, who seemed to be doing okay, sat next to Seok-jin and silently looked at Yeo-ju, but Yoon-ki's clothes, which were already wrinkled with handprints as he held onto Seok-jin's arm while crossing his arms, were already wrinkled.

“Haa…. My lady.”

"……."

“I really… I really can’t do it.”

"Who else was there besides you? Did you see who it was? The face, the clothes, anything?"

"Kim Yeo-ju."

Yoon-ki interrupted Seok-jin's desperate words and called out to Yeo-ju. Yeo-ju, who had seemed almost out of her senses at the sound of her name being called, raised her head.

"Sabra, Psyche."

김여주

"……."

"Tell me everything you know. Can't you see our faces here now? You're worried."

I'm worried... Yeo-ju quietly closed her eyes as she listened to Yoon-gi's words. She remembered the cold, cooling Yeo-woon was in her arms.

김여주

“That day, the day Namjoon got hurt… Sabra told me. She’d take away the one thing I hate.”

"…what?"

김여주

“I like you… I will definitely be with you, Sabra said.”

"Haa... It was Sabra again? Why are you so impatient because you can't catch our team!!!"

Boom!! Jimin, frustrated and unable to control his anger, slammed his fist on the desk. The pens on the desk fell to the ground, but no one present picked them up.

“Then this note that was at the scene… was this also sent by Sabra?”

김여주

“…I think so. But, I wonder if other people think so too….”

"ha……."

Sighs came out here and there.

Why did Sabra kill Yeo-woon? Really because of the female protagonist? Why does Sabra like the female protagonist? A person who never showed up for the drug scandal.

Seokjin held his increasingly painful head and recalled the conversation he had with the police chief and the minister of justice before coming here.

"Captain Kim. You shouldn't be so lenient in your investigation just because we've only been together for a few months. You know that, right? I trust you."

김석진

“…Chief. Judging by the absence of the note and weapon at the scene, it doesn’t seem like the female protagonist was the one who killed him.”

"T, this is...! Aren't you the team leader? We should all be treated as equal team members. How can I protect the person who killed my daughter!!!!! Kill that bitch who killed my daughter right now!!!!"

"Okay, Minister!! You're too excited. I'll take care of this."

“Let go of this!!! My Yeo-woon asked me to put it in there so I put it in… What is this!!! My Yeo-woon… Yeo-woon…!!!!”

김석진

"……."

I understand this situation well. If the female protagonist is not the culprit, the Minister of Justice will use his power to retaliate against us. On the other hand, if the female protagonist is the culprit…

Kwaak–

… That can't be. The team members here knew better than anyone that the female protagonist wasn't the culprit.

Clank–

"Captain Kim. Take your team and go out for a moment. I have something to discuss with Lieutenant Kim."

At that moment, the police chief, who had never been here before, opened the door and came in. He looked at Taehyung's frozen face and then spoke to Seokjin.

김석진

“…Yes, but I can’t give you much time.”

"It won't take that long. It'll be over in ten minutes. Don't worry, just go out."

At the director's words, Seokjin nodded to his team members, who, with reluctant expressions, left the interrogation room one by one. The door closed firmly, leaving only the director and Yeoju in the room.

The female protagonist still stared blankly at the chief. Normally, the chief would have been enraged by her behavior, but upon hearing that she had been administered a tranquilizer, he ignored her and opened his mouth.

"Second Lieutenant Kim Yeo-ju."

김여주

"……."

"I won't make a long story short. I'll step down from the special investigation unit now."

김여주

"…yes?"

"The media is controlled, so the citizens don't know, but everyone here already knows. Your military unit has contacted you as well."

“If you don’t get punished here, they’ll drag you there and punish you… something like that.”

김여주

“What the… nonsense, nonsense.”

Her blank gaze filled with bewilderment. The woman jumped to her feet and grabbed the chief's hand, causing the handcuffs on her wrists to clank together.

김여주

"Military, military unit... I, I really didn't kill Yeo-woon. I'm a soldier who saves people... How could I kill someone like this!!!!"

"then."

Thump. The director placed the documents and plane tickets he had hidden behind his desk on the desk.

"Live quietly in hiding."

김여주

"…yes?"

Three words in the heroine's eyes, a contract. Next to it was a plane ticket to a country she'd never heard of.

The female protagonist, who was not in the mood to read the contents of the contract at the moment, looked back and forth between the director and the contract with a puzzled expression.

"I know that Lieutenant Kim didn't kill Inspector Na Yeo-woon. If Lieutenant Na Yeo-woon had killed Lieutenant Kim, he would have killed her. I don't think it would have been the other way around."

김여주

“Then why….”

"But what does that matter?"

The chief's voice rang out coldly.

"Whatever the truth is, Lieutenant Kim, you killed Inspector Na Yeo-un."

김여주

“…Chief.”

“That’s what I hope for, that’s what the Minister of Justice hopes for….”

“…Because that’s what Sabra wants.”

Stop.

The female protagonist, who had been listening to the chief's words with a distorted expression, froze for a moment.

김여주

"…what……."

김여주

“…What did you say? Just now.”

A cold air enveloped them.
