CHAPTER FOUR: A QUESTION

SOUJIN POV

"May I ask what your relationship with Jungkook? You said you were his friend, but how did you meet him?" I asked, and Jaepil smiled as he went deep into thinking.

"Jeon Jungkook was my friend during a business dealing with him. It was back in 2018 when I first met him. It was during Mr. Choi San's party where he celebrated as the new heir for their company," Jaepil replied.

"Mr. Choi San... isn't he... the new director of SAN Group? It's the most successful company in South Korea, the company just behind yours," I replied as I listed down the name.

"Yes, Mr. Choi San is the son of Mr. Choi Misan, the family runs with San in their names, as it represents the SAN group, I heard he's only 21," Jaepil replies and I nod.

"Next question, what was Jungkook like before you met him? What was his occupation, background, or anything?" I asked.

"A well-educated man. Seeing that Choi San invited the man means that he is no joke. Jeon Jungkook owns tons of real estate and buildings, seeing that the family of Jeon was very wealthy in the 1900s. I can say he is very smart and clever in his own way," Jaepil replied.

"Alright, seeing that this Choi San may be important, do you know anything about how they met and their dealings with each other for an important person like Jungkook to be there?" I asked.

"Choi San and Jungkook.... I have no idea with them. All I know is that in the party, I get some atmosphere between both of them, it's a very.... scary one indeed," Jaepil replied and I nodded.

"Alright, I also want to ask about your relationship with Choi San," I replied.

"I don't have anything to do with him. But Choi San's father is my teacher, and he teaches at Seoul National University, and San is currently a college student studying his master's degree there," Jaepil replied and I nodded.

"Great, and also.... during the big event, were you present during there?" I asked.

"The Hongdae Massacre of 2020. I heard it was at the December of 2020 when thousands of people were exposed to hidden gunfire during Christmas, and thousand of people died," Jaepil said.

"I heard it in the news and I was at home, many people were seen by the CCTV. But the people involved were not recognized, only the fact that Jeon Jungkook and his group was behind it," he replied and I nodded.

"According to the files, Mr. Jeon Jungkook's gang name is called Bangtan or Bulletproof, an underground organization in the inside but an influential stock group in the outside, as his friend, can you elaborate and specify the stocks they sell?" I ask.

"I did come in terms with Jungkook. They sell illegal drugs and things underground, and they sell supplies in the outside, it may seem a harmless company, since Jungkook has already made a name in business, but it's pretty sad how he collapsed like that," Jaepil responded and I wrote it down.

"Last question, has Kyonghwan and Bulletproof, ever had a stir? You say you were never involved in his dirty business, but in general, is your company involved with them? Don't worry, you won't be charged, this is just info," I replied.

"Kyonghwan is originally a medic group, we specialize in treating people with our pharmaceutical products, we don't get ourselves involved with a criminal organization like Bangtan," he replied, and I nodded.

"Thank you, this is all I have for now, I'll be sure to try my best and help Mr. Jeon," I replied, standing up before bowing, and Jaepil nodded and smiled.

"I admire such a woman who chose to present for Jungkook. He'd be very thankful," he said and I shook my head.

"No need to worry, it's part of my job, since you contacted us," I replied before saying my farewells.

As I made my way out of the office, carrying my suitcase as my heels clicked against the floor, I suddenly bumped into a huge force.

I was taken aback as I stumbled, steadying myself as I looked at the figure infront of me.

It was a woman. She had short hair and she wore a lab coat with jeans and sneakers, she was also carrying some papers which were now scattered on the floor. She whimpered as she tried to stand up, clutching her arm.

"I'm sorry, let me help you," I said as I crouched down to get one of the papers, but she tugged on my arm.

"N-no need, I... am the one sorry. I was in a hurry," she said, and I could hear the tiredness in her voice. I know I shouldn't interfere with another person's life, but this girl needed sleep, and she needed to eat as she looked like she hasn't eaten in days.

"Th-thank you, I can handle myself," she replied.

"Are you okay? You seem like you haven't rested," I asked, getting a bit worried.

"I'm fine," she replied shortly before hurrying into an office.

I sighed as I dusted myself, looking at her direction before continuing on my way to the exit.

THIRD PERSON POV

"Y-Yuuri... Yuuri noona," Yeonjun said as he rushed through Yuuri's office, as she was working through her case.

"What is it Yeonjun? I said I'm on a diet I don't need anything," Yuuri automatically replied as she was typing into her computer, her work glasses pushed up her nosebridge.

"N-no! This time it's not about what to eat, I need you to come with me, there's something in the e-mails," Yeonjun said and Yuuri looked up at him before taking her glasses off.

"If you're panicking, something must have happened, something badly really... happened. Right?" Yuuri said as she got up, fixing her clothes before changing from her slippers to her heels, walking out of her office as she followed Yeonjun.

"I recieved something from the e-mail, and.... it's really weird because I cannot recognize the person who sent even after I traced it many times," Yeonjun replied.

As they arrived in the computer which was located in Yeonjun's office, he typed in his passcode before borrowing the screen to Yuuri.

"The sender's name is weird, and you cannot erase it. It's also strange how it never got straight to my spam mail, it appeared right on top," Yeonjun explained as Yuuri read it quietly.
