Chapter 26

"What's this bull stuff I'm hearing?" Hoseok remarks as he sets his crossbag down on a desk.

The policeman stands up and turns to face hoseok while slipping his fingers inside his belt.

"Minho had nothing to do with the investigation. We have done some research."

"But Taehyung said,"

"Your brother was mistaken. He was somewhat correct, I suppose. He wasn't totally, but he was."

"So, what's going on?" Hoseok asks while rubbing his hair and resting against the wall.

Namjoon suggests, "I think you should sit down for this one.

"I won't stop until I understand what is happening with the matter involving my brother. so someone! Tell me something!" Hoseok shouts as he finally sits down, his left leg hopping uncomfortably.

"Taehyung was somewhat accurate. He recognized the right face, but it wasn't the right person."

"What do you mean anybody else?"

"It was established that minho was present at the mall on the day of the occurrence. We have security footage."

"Let me clarify that. someone else was attempting to replace Minho on the field?"

"precise."

"If it's Jungkook, I swear to God-" Hoseok nods and makes a fist.

Namjoon, who is seated next to Hoseok, responds, "No, it's not."

"So, who is it?"

"an alter ego."

"what? I do not comprehend. Does Minho have any mental health issues? or perhaps a twin?" Hoseok questions, perplexed.

The cop groans and settles back at his desk.

"Namjoon, could you please assist me here?" He begs.

Waiting for hoseok to speak, namjoon states, "what he's saying is that there was a stand in."

"I still... don't grasp it."

"a body double! Someone was instructed to pose as minho! It wasn't Minho, either! like in a movie? the stuntman!"

"okay. okay. Now I get it. holy sh*t." Hoseok speaks as the room falls silent.

"So... what are we going to do now?" Namjoon inquires.

"what are we going to do? Have we managed to apprehend the offender?"

"Not quite-"

"not yet? Some fucktard is still permitted to roam around! Will you look into it a bit more?"

"We're giving it our best shot, hoseok. You are aware of how these things operate." The policeman sighs.

"You're correct. I'm sorry. What about Minho?" hoseok groans and rubs his forehead.

"We released him this morning."

Hoseok gets up from the chair and responds, "Okay. I must proceed to the hospital, I... I have to get going."

"sure. I will leave with you." In preparation for hoseok to exit, Namjoon says as he opens the door.

"hobi... Is something wrong?" Taehyung inquires while touching the said male on the shoulder.

"huh? I'm all right." He replies, continuing to peel an apple.

"you've been drifting off a lot since you came here," Taehyung worriedly inquires as he places a slice of an apple in his mouth from the fruit dish.
