He's Back |Park Sunghoon|

"Give me a valid reason as to why I should name my child Jake." Sunghoon shook his head as they walked towards the car.

"I'm the best friend of both the parents. I deserve to have my name there." Jake said as he opened the car door, getting in the passenger seat.

Sunghoon laughed as he got in the drivers seat, switching on the engine.

"Where are we supposed to go again?" He questioned as he drove out of the parking lot.

Jake's cheeks turn red as he recalled the instructions they had received from Jay.

"My superior has been sharing information about the case with me and is working with a few officers. But if I'm being honest I don't think they're as capable as you guys are. Especially you." Jay spoke as he pointed at Sunghoon.

"So what do you want us to do?" Heeseung asked as he absentmindedly ate his ice cream.

"There's a place Mr. Han usually goes to every night. There's suspicions about corruption in that place and maybe you guys could dig for more information. I'm not allowed to because I'm not assigned to this case. I can't dig into a private investigation, but you guys can." Jay informed and Jungwon nodded his head in agreement.

"So what is this place?"

"A strip club on the East of the city."

Sunghoon scrunched up his nose in disgust whilst Heeseung raised his eyebrows in interest.

"I am not going in there." Sunghoon said as he stubbornly shook his head.

"Why not? You've got something against strippers?" Heeseung defensively said as he raised his eyebrows even more.

"I have nothing against strippers but I'm a married man, I am not going in there behind my wife's back to watch half naked women dance on polls."

"Oh wow he's a loyal puppy that calls his owner Tootsie." Heeseung teased as he tried to touch Sunghoon's head who only harshly pushed his arm away. "I'll go then." He continued with a small smirk.

"I'll go too."

They all turned their heads towards Jake, who only raised his arms defensively.

"Just to help out!"

After they picked up Heeseung, they stopped the car in front of the strip club which was weirdly enough buzzing with energy.

Running Stars

The sign read and for some reason the name sounded familiar to Sunghoon.

He tilted his head as he looked at the steering wheel in thought, trying to figure out where and when that name had been mentioned.

But suddenly it dawned on him.

"Mr. Park owns this place." Sunghoon said as he looked at the logo around the first R, where the letter P hidden in the R shown a brighter red.

Jake and Heeseung turned to look at him in confusion.

"He owns this place?"

"He has- or had, a sex ring. He would practically sell women for money, he owned many places like these around town but they were all shut down. Except for this one, I guess." Sunghoon said as he watched men walk in and out of that place.

They probably don't know what really goes on in there. They probably think these women are there willingly.

Jake's eyes dimmed down sadly as he was feeling bad for the women in that place.
