CHAPTER 2:FOOTPRINTS SAY A LOT

!TW//MENTIONS OF RAPE!

Taehyung quickly shakes the thoughts away from his head. He snatches a handheld megaphone from the officer standing next to him, while he turns to the crowd and shouts, "All civilians and reporters are requested to leave the place immediately."

"We want to know the truth, sir we stand for justice" a young girl, identified as a reporter spoke from the crowd.

To this, Taehyung replied with slight anger in his usually emotionless voice "Do you want to know the truth or get views on this channel of yours? Listen I won't repeat, after 5 minutes if I see any of you people wandering around or disturbing the investigation, I will personally file a report against your channel. IS THAT CLEAR!? Crimes are not supposed to be your income. I hope you understand that." The deep angry voice of the chief was enough to make the crowd obey his orders. Soon after, every single reporter scattered across to their vans.

The body was taken to the forensic lab for the post mortem. Taehyung was busy questioning two witnesses, a couple who saw the body around 6am while jogging nearby. 'We saw the body lying near the beach house. We were jogging in the morning together, which is part of our morning routine.' This was the only words Taehyung got out of them, which wasn't that big of a clue, but still could be used as a clue nevertheless.

Taehyung walked alongside the coast, trying to find any clues that would help crack the mystery. "Fuck it, the footprints on this wet sand would have been a great clue but those motherfucking reporters all stepped on the sand making it a mess" Taehyung cursed as he kicked the sand which caused Jungwoo's shoes to get dirty. "Oh shi--", the boy mouthed, as he gives his senior a 'oh it was you, okay' look. "Sir, we have the post mortem results. Please follow me.", Jungwoo said, turning around.

They soon reach the forensic lab, where they usually keep the post mortem report. "Sir, the boy's name is Jung Hoseok, 27 years old, works in a bar as a waiter, has an older brother named Jung Hosung. They live in Yeong-Nam district which explains the poor state of his family. They do not have any enemies as of record.", Jungwoo spoke first, spelling out each and every word written in the poor boy's police record correctly. The forensic reporter began explaining the injuries and cause of death, " Mr. Jung Hoseok's death was caused by extreme blood loss. There is another possibility that he was choked to death because while examining the body, we found handprints across his neck, which indicates that he was also choked, but the prime cause is blood loss. There were sperm cells and an STD also found in his blood system, indicating that he was raped in the past or shortly before his death---

*Flashback*

"Taesung was raped shortly before his death as we could find a few sperm cells in his blood system. He was also abused previously as there were bruises seen---
*End of flashback*

---ir! SIR!", Jungwoo shouted out, bringing Taehyung back to his senses. "Oh I'm sorry, what were you saying?", Taehyung asked guiltily, as he was not listening to what the forensic reporter was telling him. "I was saying that he was either raped to death, or beaten to death, or both.", the forensic reporter explained once again. "Oh okay, thanks. We will be taking our leave now.", Taehyung says while walking towards the door, after one last bow to show his respect.

"Okay, so we should be catching up with his brother, I guess", Taehyung says while dropping both his hands in his pockets located on either sides of his coat.

It was getting closer towards the night, time running at it's fastest pace, like it had a destination to reach, it waiting for darkness to arrive, so that it can unwind the mysteries hidden under the demons in the depths of the dark.
