The Truth Untold

Chapter 27 - The Truth Untold

...

Yoongi's mind was swirling. The information he found out only a day ago was massive and he was at a loss how to deal with it. Of course, his first impulse would be to report it, believing in the system and its justice. However, deep down he knew that this won't work, especially because some of the people who are on the top of their chain of command were deeply involved with the illegal dealings, taking bribes and doing favours with the criminals.

Yoongi was stressed about that. He wasn't really surprised by some of them, they were just shady to him from the start, but when he found out about a few others that he once had a good opinion of, he was really disappointed and angry.

Moonbyul acted the same, she was outraged and worried just like he was.

-'' This isn't good Yoongi-ah.'' – She said after they discover the real content of that USB file and why Park Jimin's head was on the line for it. – '' This is bad on so many levels.''

Yoongi closes his eyes for the moment as he sighs. – '' I know.''

She looks at him. – '' What are we going to do?'' – She asks. – '' We can't just give USB.''

-'' We have to, or otherwise, there would be a lot of casualties.''

-'' But they would get away!'' – She hisses in a hushed voice. She was beyond annoyed.

-'' No they won't.'' – Yoongi says, determent. – '' We just need to find the way how to deal with them without endangering Park Jimin and Jungkookie, now that he is involved with him.''

Moonbyul huffs. – '' Silly boy.''

Yoongi gave a tired chuckle. – '' I was just waiting for that to happen, to be honest.''

-'' What? Getting in trouble?''

-'' No.'' – Yoongi gently shakes his head. – '' Although that too. No, I meant about getting involved with Park Jimin again. These two had history and it's not over yet.''

-'' Hmm...'' – She just hums, not commenting further on the subject. – '' So what are we to do? We need to report it to our superiors. They will know that we are involved if we hold on to it for long.''

-'' I'm thinking.''

They were silent for some minutes. Yoongi stood and walked around the office, arms crossed with one hand holding his chin. His long fingers were on his cheek, with the last two on his lips, his eyes deeply unfocused. Moonbyul knew better than to interrupt Yoongi's thinking process, which always gave great results in the end.

-'' Hmm...'' – He hums after a while. The sound did bring Moonbyul's attention to him. She waited.

Yoongi blinks a few times, licks his lips and turns towards her. He clearly didn't know how to say something.

-'' Just spit it out, boss.'' – She says. – '' And I don't plan to back out from this. I'm with you 100% whatever you do.'' – She added, very determined.

Yoongi felt warmth in his chest at that. He tilts his head. – '' And if it's breaking the law?''

She smiles devilishly. – '' If by that you mean breaking already compromised law, then I will gladly do whatever is necessary to fix it.''

Yoongi grins widely, so his gums were showing. Even Moonbyul chuckles.

-'' Alright then.'' – Yoongi says, bringing the chair next to her again and seating himself down. – '' This is what are we going to do. Do you have some secure server outside of work that we can use?''
