Issabella: Excuse me to interrupt your uhm... Circle meeting? But i have something to tell you.

She sounded really serious indeed and a knot in your stomach caused by apprehension slowly formed. You could hardly swallow

Issabella: There's something i haven't told Jin, Y/n and Namjoon when you were interrogating me.

Namjoon: Hm?

Issabella: You see... About Kate. Although she seemed happy, with money and was really spoiled by her parents, she was actually a bit neglected.

Y/n: E-eh!? But... Jo-isso said the complete opposite thing! She said that Kate and her were really close.

Jin: Can you elaborate by "Neglected"

Issabella: Well, her dad was obviously never here, you know that. But her mom, she would always be out with her friends. Actually the day Kate went missing she was out!

Y/n: Yes, i remember you said she told you to bake a cake if I'm right?

Issabella: Indeed.

Taehyung: But why would she lie?

Jackson: I'll tell you why! That's because it's her the mastermind behind this.

Jin: We are still not sure... Even though she would be behind it what would be her motive?

Yu-bin: I think she lied due to the guilt. To cover up the undying culpability that she has due to the fact that was never really with her daughter either.

Jungkook: I think Yu-bin is right. She was maybe ashamed over this.

Namjoon: What about Dan..?

Issabella: I'll tell you my piece, I've never fully trusted him. Whenever i was alone in the house with him, their would always be this uncomfortable aura in the house.

Hoseok: Now back to the theories.

You shifted your attention back to the notebook but before you thanked Issabella, it sure isn't an easy task to admit our own faults.

Yoongi: So what's next?

Jin continued to skim a bit until he founded another note...

Jin: This... This note.

You clapped your hand on your mouth, letting a small shriek.

The note read:

Finally, the boat is nearly here. Just a few weeks before everything goes according to plan... Although i know a lot of people are going to be sad, i have no other choice than this and besides... After knowing this dirty truth. Since everyone does what they want to, then I'll do what i want to. I must thank this kid again, i know I've tricked her too, i know this is bad too i know everyone will say I'm the villain but if they just tried to see from my perspective... I'm heading to the deck right now hopefully everything goes smoothly~

Taehyung: This is horrible! We need to head to the harbor immediately!

Yu-bin: Taehyung is right... Maybe Kate is there!!

Jackson said nothing and just sprinted to his car. You all looked at him.

Jackson: What are you waiting for?

He said with his usual smirk.

You suddenly got a rush of adrenaline, all your wounds stopped pricking you. Everything seemed possible for a brief moment.

You ran to the car, Issabella looked at you petrified with fear. She bit her lips before yelling:

Issabella: Find her! Arrest those idiots!! And... Jin, Y/n! You guys are not a random distractions. You are real detectives!
