Pain is like a drug
It empties your mind slower
But kills you from outside faster

"I'M HOME" Taehyung shouted abruptly without any second thought before stepping into the house. He could feel how the officer hissed and yelped at his sudden eruption but it was the only way taehyung hoped for jungkook to hide maybe. Oh silly him who already forgot that he pounced the idol with shackles.

He let seokjin walk inside and closed the door behind him. Taehyung was fully ready to attack the officer as soon as he moved into the living room and noticed Jungkook's presence on the couch. He even grabbed a steel rod expecting to hit seokjin within a mere moment but it never came. Unexpectedly without any reaction, the taller male came into the living room while closely observing everything with his sharp gaze before turning to stare at taehyung's stiff figure "What're these foods for? Does anybody else live here? Why the TV is still on?" seokjin pointed toward the empty couch and tea table which had still crammed bowls with food

"What happened? You are sweating Mr Kim. Don't be intimidated by me. I mean no harm" the officer slowly approached taehyung making his breath hitched. He stood too close, too intimate as his chest literally could hit near the shorter male's head "Why are you nervous?" he asked again, earning a little whimper from his love interest. Taehyung shakily peeked at his left side and became horrified to notice jungkook wasn't there. "Did he run away? No no no!!" he mentally shrieked, body trembling more with the sudden cold fingers and creepy mocking giggles from his red hyung standing right behind him.

"He ran away haha what a loser you are! I have told you already my taetae, your jungkookie hates you!"

"Kill him"

"kill kill kill"

"he even neglected the routine!"

"V?" Seokjin tried to touch his shoulders but the body flinched away immediately "W-What?" he asked, almost in a panic, pupils shifting from left to right in an abrupt motion. He was feeling so sick, so vulnerable.

"The ID card Kim, did you forget?" seokjin chuckled to lighten the heavy atmosphere around them but taehyung didn't seem to buzz. He softly nodded his head before signalling seokjin to stay here which the officer didn't actually obey. After taehyung vanished deeper into the house, he secretly wandered around, examining every inch of that pretty small cottage. He really couldn't deny the fact that the house was giving him a negative vibe but other than that everything looked normal.

As seokjin was strolling, he came across a small room whose door was slightly opened and certainly the officer couldn't hold himself back from checking that out. With cautious steps, he slowly entered the room hoping to find nothing but there was something much more disturbing

A strong wave of fresh aroma of paint hit his nostrils, the robust chemical and the room's condition brought an awful shiver down his spine. The walls were filled with the drawings of Jeon jungkook, some were painted in red and some were entirely blank. He noticed that some flies were really attracted to the red paint even though it shouldn't have happened unless it was human blood or some sort of edible liquid

"What the! That kidnapper also was good at drawing. What a coincidence"  seokjin chuckled in stress as He went a little additionally inside while inspecting every single paper, only to find that Mr v could draw manhwa as well

"W-What are you doing here?" Seokjin flinched as a paintbrush was about to fall to the ground but he caught it at the right duration. For the first time, he felt scared, very afraid to look back and face taehyung. "I'm asking you what are you doing here?" Taehyung's voice went deeper while possible anger could be detected easily.

"Oh, I was just looking around. I didn't know that you were an artist"

"I'm not. Here is my ID" taehyung brought the card closer toward seokjin to scan but the officer's gaze lingered on his emotionless face rather than doing his job. "Kim Taehyung"

Taehyung frowned, not giving any wild gasping reaction to seokjin's utter surprise. The officer grinned widely and tilted his head aside while stepping closer and closer to the shorter male "Kim Taehyung?"

"What are you saying? I'm not Kim taehyung" The shorter male began to back away from every step of seokjin's heavy feet. His face stood still calm and collected but not for too long because the moment seokjin pinned him against the wall, his utterance showed fear "W-What are you doing?"

"Don't be scared. Tell me the truth"

"S-Stop, please! I'll put complaints against you"

"Are you Kim taehyung?"

"STO- OUCH!" Taehyung cried out when the officer mindlessly grabbed a fistful of his hair, painfully yanking tae's head backwards "I hate lies hm? I'll catch you soon" with that warning latched voice seokjin let go of taehyung before hurriedly stepping out from the house, leaving taehyung a trembling mess inside the house

It was already dark outside but seokjin's widened eyes and large grin couldn't stay hidden behind the darkness. He looked overly joyed and intrigued. "Shit! He can't be right?" He slowly looked down at his palm which still had some ripped hair from tae's head. "You'll be caught, my pretty pretty killer" he cracked his voice into a pile of small laughter while vastly dragging his car toward the forensic lab. He needed to match the hair's DNA with those blood spots that he found inside jungkook's room. The excitement of solving the case was overly filling his brain but the feeling of disappointment still could be seen somewhere on his blank face

A/n: Updates can be slow I guess. I'm utterly hurt by some situations and I need some time to hold myself and not kill myself at this point. Hope you guys will understand. After I come back I'll update at least 2 or 3 chapters a day and finish this book. Borahae 💜

Can't wait for Namjoon's song to break the records :)
