"uhh. So..Jeongin, what are we doing here?"

Felix voiced out, his voice was a bit sore due to how much he just cleared his throat. Both of them; him and Jeongin were casually sitting on a bench that can be spotted near the basketball court while Jisung was standing there leaning against the chain wire fence behind them.

In front of them were several players of their school's basketball club - that were still on fire practicing under the sun. "I didn't know you were into basketball" Felix continued. Basically, he and Jisung were dragged into the court by Jeongin without a word.

"I don't mind"

Jisung butted in the conversation with a warm smile. Seemingly, there were formed two little hearts in his eyes as he was watching the team's captain; Lee Minho who kept on breaking sweats each minutes. Felix just gave him a smug look even though he couldn't catch an eye for that.

Soon, Jeongin just chuckled. "Well. Mr. Stranger said he's a close friend of Minho hyung's. So, i'm just here to do my professional detective investigation" he told him, his legs were gracefully swaying under the bench side by side yet his head was moving to every angle in order to get his sight right on the players in the front.

After getting his answer to his question, Felix smiled in sinister.

"And here i thought you didn't care about those pickup lines"
He said and Jeongin just shrugged.

"You're right, i still don't. Shush Lixie i'm on a case"

He shushed him up and the other just rolled his eyes to the back of his head, slowly turning his focus on the same view as Jeongin's. Jisung who was watching the two just rested his eyebrows in ease before he decided to amble closer towards the boys.

Swiftly, he began wrapping his palm on Jeongin's right shoulder. "So, do you have any idea on who it is?" He inquired in a low voice, almost like a whisper. It's a private matter, so he needed to make sure no one was listening but them.

A hum was sang softly by Jeongin, he fastened the pace of his eyeballs to watch everyone there. He didn't recognize most of them, actually.

It's already pretty hard for him for being the person that doesn't care about his surrounding so this was quite a challenge. Plus, he only has like two hints? And he's not even sure if they'd help much.

"Not really. The only next thing he told me was that not many people like him but it's not like he care about that. We're searching for someone who has a rather cold personality..i think" he said and Felix's face instantly lit up.

"Is it Seungmin? Sounds just like him, he's the team's point guard and a friend of Minho too. Not to mention that he's also known as the prince of giving zero fuck"

Jeongin proceeded to turn his focus on the mentioned male, observing him in every view after he took the time to listen to Felix's description. In his opinion, sure, the hints suited him in a way but maybe it's just him but he doesn't seem to match to what he had in mind.

Kim Seungmin, seventeen, from the other class that actually built besides his; doesn't seem to be the type to write cheeky pickup lines. He's not a senior either, plus everyone likes him even though he hates the love he gains around.

Without any hesitation, Jeongin shook his head left to right as a no which then causes the others to wonder in more curiosity.

"How about that guy, the power forward Seo Changbin. Don't know much about him though, but...he's actually a sunshine so probably nah" Jisung said, one palm was put on his left cheek as his eyes got a little bit hopeless.

"I know Changbin hyung, we treat each other like brothers so..it'd be weird"

Jeongin mentioned, an awkward smile was plastered on his face meanwhile Felix and Jisung just shared a glance at each other before letting out some snorts afterwards, sharing the same brain cell.

Watching those two, Jeongin laughed along with them later on until they realized that the basketball practice has come into a temporary break.

At the same time, all three of them also noticed that someone was walking towards them with his chest panted up and down from the lack of air.
