The Wolf and the Beauty

TWATB #17

Right after waving Junmyeon goodbye, the officer ran back to the station. He pushed open the door before settling himself in front of the CCTV monitors. He went back to the time he was in the hospital and began watching the footage carefully. 

He was almost convinced that no one had used his spot until he paused with eyes wide. "Why would he do this?" he mumbled as he continued to watch the footage. The raven head watched his friend go through his computer with clenched fists. 

"What did you see?" his glare turned dark as he paused the video again to see the man's face more distinctively. Just as he stood up from the seat, his phone rang. Seeing it was Sehun, the raven head picked up. 

"I need to meet you."

"When?"

Once Sehun uttered the address and time, Chanyeol made a mental note of it before walking out to his desk. "You didn't have lunch?" asked Yifan and the male smiled, "Jun Hyung took me out." Nodding at that, the Chinese man got back to the reports of the week. 

"Where's everyone else?" He asked seeing it was only Jongin and Yifan who were back from lunch. 

Yifan shrugged, "There was a minor accident nearby. Some are there getting statements." Chanyeol gave a nod before turning back to finish the reports he had to. 

The morning after he woke up, the man was interrogated by Sehun and Junmyeon. As much as Chanyeol wanted to say everything he saw that night, he could not remember anything. He only remembered the MO killer was tall and nothing else. Everything from that night was a blur to him. 

The raven head could not remember the man's voice though he desperately tried to. Baekhyun, on the other hand, gave them a useful statement that the man cursed in Chinese. But that was not enough for them to conclude anything. 

When it was time to leave, the raven head bid his colleagues goodbye as he headed to the place the detective had called him to. Climbing up the stairs, Chanyeol pushed open the door to the rooftop before looking around. 

Once his eyes fell on the detective's back, he approached him, "What's up?" Sehun turned to him with a small smile and nodded, "You came." Chanyeol nodded, "Of course, I did. But why'd you have to call me all the way up to here? And this damned building doesn't have an elevator!" He pocketed his gloved hands sniffing at the coldness. 

The detective chuckled and crossed his hands over his chest as the night breeze brushed over his brunet strands. "No one followed you here, right?" The younger nodded with a laugh, "Are you going to push me off this building?"

"No," he replied, "but we need to do something important. I need your cooperation in something. I found the killer." Sehun turned to his friend who had frozen in his spot gulping hard. 

"What?"

The detective nodded, "Yeah, I found him. We need to go catch him. Will you help me?" Chanyeol looked at him with confusion written all over his face. "Who is it?" the officer inquired. "Someone we've known for so long."

The raven head furrowed his brows. "It i---" Sehun hit the ground face first before he could finish the sentence. Chanyeol watched as the man in black bashed the man's head with another hard blow from the baseball bat in his hand. 

The enraged raven head charged towards him with a loud angry growl and knocked down the man to the ground. He stepped on his hand hard enough to earn a loud groan from the man. Slowly his grip on the bat loosened and the raven head clutched it in his. 

As he lifted the bat to bash it against the man's head, he heard the sound of a gun firing. The tall male froze as his hand moved to his abdomen as he fell. He watched with anger as the man in black walked away with a salute as if mocking the two.
