after jungkook had threatened to kill jackson by sending him a few men who would beat him up until he had to be transported to a hospital, jackson actually agreed to help jungkook.

jackson was only a noname criminal but he had good relations to some people. whenever the big gangs had something they needed a 'favor' for, it was jackson who would do it.

jungkook waited impatiently for jackson's call. it already took longer than expected, the record was five minutes but ninety had already passed. finally the ringtone went of and jungkook picked up immediately.

jackson cleared his throat, "uhm so, there's an abandoned building in gwangju-si. it's called gonjiam psychiatric hospital. gonjiam was closed in the 1990s mainly due to economic downturns, unsanitary conditions, etc. it is said that another reason for the abandonment were insane doctors and murderous patients but there's no proof for that."

"get to the point, jackson," jungkook groaned annoyed.

"yeah right, so, technically the hospital is closed to the public but there are still dozens of people who break in there to investigate the place every year. what i wanna say by that is that there's access to this building and normally no one should be around since it is in the middle of nowhere. additionally the interior of the hospital looks quite similar to the background in the photo you showed me," jackson said quickly, seemingly exited.

"so you think there's a chance that jimin might be there?"

"yes, indeed. however, i cannot say this with certainty since the rooms in the hospital should be quite run down and filled with old medical trash and the room jimin was in seemed very sterile and modern," jackson answered, his voice filled with doubt.

"i will go there anyways," jungkook growled and anger rose inside of him again. he would kill the person who was doing this to jimin.

"jungkook uhm," jackson stuttered, "can i come with you?"

"why would you wanna come with me?," jungkook asked surprised.

"you know, i have something for abandoned places. also i'm searching for a new place as a hideout."

jungkook snorted in disbelief, "well sure if you want to, we will meet there in an hour."

"but it will take at least two hours to get there-"

"sixty minutes," jungkook interrupted him coldly, "i will not wait for you." he hang up.

jungkook jumped in his car and stepped on the gas. he was driving way too fast but he did not care. he didn't even bother to cover up his face to avoid being caught on camera. even though the license plate number was fake and even though he was saved under a fake name in the police's servers they could still convict him and changing his identity yet again would be a pain in the ass and cost a shitload of money.

the engine roared dangerously as he passed other cars on the autobahn as if he was already being followed by the cops. the wheels were squeaking and jungkook almost caused two accidents.

finally he pulled up in gwangju-si town and his eyes hastily searched the surrounding to find the entrance sign for the hospital. eventually seeing it he hit the breaks as the car came to a hold, the engine already steaming but jungkook couldn't care less. to his surprise jackson was already standing in front of the gate waiting for him.

jungkook jumped out of the car, eyeing him suspiciously as he slammed the door close, "how the fuck are you already here?," he asked out of breath, his heart beating at an unhealthy speed.

"took the heli, otherwise i wouldn't have made it," jackson grinned, hands tucked inside the pockets of his flight jacket.

"fucking could have taken me with you," jungkook hissed more to himself than jackson.
