↢ The first crime ↣ ⌜Taekook⌝ Part 1

Chapter 22

Taehyung walked out of the cafe with a headache and almost would have capsized in the middle of the sidewalk if he hadn't run into someone.

"I'm sorry, sir." He bowed and was about to go on when he noticed who was really standing in front of him.

"Taehyung? What are you doing here?”Asked the voice the young boy least expected to hear today.

"I should ask the same, Jimin," He replied reluctantly, because he didn't even feel like talking to him, he felt bad, and he didn't like the fact that he was still in love with the wrong guys.

He didn't even think that it was Jimin who had disappeared only when he grabbed his hand and shook himself from his lethargy.

"We need to talk," He began to pull him in only a direction he knew, and Taehyung began to struggle. It had occurred to him that he didn't really know Jimin, and what if he wanted to hurt him?

"Stop Jimin stop dragging me, where did you come from at all?" Hoseok reported that you escaped.

"Oh, honey, let's talk somewhere else about it. We need to clear up a few things."

They were walking at a really fast pace and the Taehyung inside was shaking all over he wanted it not to be true. He was supposed to go to Jimin's apartment, but he didn't want to see him today. What if the boy led him to Jeon, whom he didn't want to see even more? He lied to everyone as much as Hoseok.

They both ended up in Jimin's apartment, and Taehyung stopped at one point.

"Oh no, I don't want to see Jeon again. I will not enter there for any of the world's treasures."

"Honey don't worry, Jungkook isn't there, you don't need to be afraid," He said softly, and Taehyung felt it was the silence before the storm, both literally and figuratively.

The detective let himself be led inside because he didn't care about anything now. Today was not the best day.

They sat down together on the couch in the living room where Taehyung saw Hoseok for the first time.

"So what is it? I don't think you brought me here for coffee. I don't think it was a coincidence that I ran into you, hm?" Taehyung asked curiously.

"No, it was no accident that I followed you and I knew you would want to find me, so I ordered Hoseok to come to you, but I would never have thought that he would go for such measures. Why did you jump into his bed?" He asked as if he was furious, and it was Taehyung who suffered the most and of course Yoongi too.

"It was Hoseok who jumped in my bed, not the other way around, and you started it, I would never expect you and Jungkook to fuck when nobody is watching."

"Tae.." Jimin grabbed the boy's hand and looked deep into his eyes. "Tonight I don't know how it happened. Later I had a damn great sense of conscience and was ashamed. We have nothing in common and wish you would give me a second chance. Please..."

Taehyung hesitated, and his eyes grew even darker than the coffee shop.

"But I don't want us to be together, it would hurt me. Besides, you have to explain everything to me from the beginning without any lies.

Taehyung waited for Jimin's reply, but could not predict what the boy had to convey to him.

"We will definitely be friends, because we cannot be together when I fell in love with someone. Maybe you will be slightly surprised by this information, but I fell in love with Yoongi, I have liked him for years, but I got lost in who to help. There is Yoongi and you on one side and my longtime friend Jungkook on the other. I helped him and his sister because she is sick and the medicine was impossible to get. That evening, when Jongsuk disappeared, my friend and I abducted him, but we did not want to hurt him ..." He did not have time to answer, because Taehyung interrupted him.

"You kidnapped him for Jeon and Abby.  What you did is illegal, but I think it can be omitted for the sake of the cause." Taehyung smiled as he felt for a moment what Jungkook must have felt during that time.

Taehyung had a sister once, too, but she died a few years ago. She was a really strong girl, but the dude that ran over her left her in the middle of the forest road. The boy had the worst time in his life then, so he could imagine the feelings Jeon felt.

"Later, after this action, Jungkook got too close to me and something happened that I will never forgive myself. When I woke up in the morning I had a moral hangover and Jungkook said it was time to help his sister, now he is probably giving her a medicine that is not known to be effective. As for the murders, there is only one solution, the key to all of this is Jeon's secret, which probably lies in a secret room in his house that no one could find. I know you searched his house, but this room is really well tucked away."

“How can we reach him?” Taehyung asked, shocked. He was completely unaware of what was hidden in Jungkook's soul. After all, it was like a secret chamber that hid some secret information somewhere.

"The only way out is that you have to bury your battle ax with him, I'm not saying you should get into bed with him right away, although that might help you in some way. Just try to make friends with him somehow."

Taehyung blushed a little, but he did not want to get closer to Jungkook, but he wanted to discover the secret of Jeon, which he had been keeping for so many years. In this room there had to be an answer to who the murderer was and why Jungkook didn't hand over the killer, although just like him, his only dream was to put him in a prison.

"Okay, thanks for helping me Jimin, although I don't know what to do next, how to get closer to him if I don't even know where he is. Besides, why have you become so nice? I understand our new friendship and everything, but why ..."

"I just hope that I will finally find out the truth and, above all, help me get closer to Yoongi later. Between us, in Jungkook's notebook, I found three names joined together and led by an arrow to one specific word, it was "secret"."

“What names were there?” Taehyung was afraid that the third name was the one he had been looking for the whole time.

He hadn't expected to hear something that made him shudder everywhere on every part of his body.

"You, Jungkook and ...... Yoongi."
