Yugyeom wake up to the door's pounding. He looks at the clock and its only 6am. "Damn it. I'm coming!" He shouted as he lazily drag himself to the front door. "Gyeom-ah..." Jinyoung called out his name.

"What's wrong? Its only 6 am."

Jinyoung rushes inside and turn on the television. "I don't really have anything there except Netflix, YouTube and other streaming platfo-"

BREAKING NEWS

A 67-year-old man has been found dead in the forest near Daegu National Science Museum around 4.32am today. It is believed that this 67-year-old man is a homeless man who wanders around Dongdaegu-Ro telling fake fates to people and then asking money. Apparently, there has been no other witness found.

"What?" Yugyeom sleepily shrug his eyes. "Its the old man that pulled my hands yesterday."

"Woah, what?" His brain immediately wake up when he heard about it. "You're telling me that the old man who pulled your hands was found dead this morning?"

"Not dead, but, you know what, where's your PC?"

Yugyeom leads Jinyoung to one of his room which happens to be the gaming room. "Okay, cool setup, but let me show you something."

Jinyoung search for articles and videos related to the case. 

"Hello, I'm Detective Hyun-Joo from the Crime Scene Investigation unit. From what we found, we believe that this is a homicide case due to the clues and evidence we found in the forest. In this picture, we have found three stab wounds with the size of 16cm for each wounds. For now, we're asking Daegu community to be careful and watch each other's back and report any suspicious event especially at night. Thank you, we will make sure to catch the criminal quickly."

"What? A murder case?" Yugyeom got a little terrified. "What did you think he did?"

Jinyoung starts to think the possibility of the criminal's motive. "I mean, the old man always ask for money and sometimes he got mad when other people give him food. He's pretty much a drinker."

"Maybe someone got assaulted when he was drunk?"

"Assaulted? That old man would never assault anyone, instead he would be a sober when he drunk." Jinyoung shook his head. "You should go prepare yourself, I'll go make some breakfast with whatever you have in your kitchen."

Yugyeom went into the bathroom and a knock can be heard from the front door. Jinyoung open the door and the foreigner appeared. "Uh..."

"Well, uh..." Jackson got a little speechless after seeing the student president standing at Yugyeom's front door.

"Come in?" Fucking idiot why'd you invite them in.

"Its okay, I was going to ask Yugyeom if he wanted to come along to school since the morning news." Mark spoke up. "Oh, he's in the shower, he'll come out in a bit."

The three students came in and it became a little awkward but less than the front door scene since Jinyoung went to cook. "Jin- Oh, Mark-hyung. What's up?"

"Have you seen the morning news yet?" Bambam asked. "Yeah I did. I just saw that old man yesterday."

"What? Really? Poor old soul." Mark put his head down, feeling sympathy towards the old man. "I was just wondering if you wanna tag along to the school." 

"That's cool! We're all here anyway, why not go to school together." Yugyeom smiled and headed to the kitchen. "Why are you cooking breakfast anyway? You knew they'll came? I thought you guys are enemy."

"Enemy? I'm the student president." Jinyoung got a little confused with Yugyeom's assumption.

"Oh, I heard the other day on the rooftop, the way you guys talk." Yugyeom laughed and Jinyoung just shrugged it off.
