Jennie placed a piece of paper on the table that was between her and Moonbyul; it was the paper that Lisa had given her. Written on it was an address.


"Lisa told me to go here tomorrow," Jennie explained.


"It's a karaoke bar," Moonbyul said as he read the paper.


Jennie nodded.


"I have a feeling that he might be meeting Niran there. Should we raid the karaoke bar tomorrow?" Jennie asked.


"We need to make sure that he's meeting Niran and that they are actually doing something illegal. Otherwise, we can't do anything," Moonbyul explained.


Jennie frowned, she then suggested, "In that case, I'll follow along and keep an eye on the situation. If it's playing out the way that we expect. I'll immediately contact you."


"I will have a team parked outside. We will wait for your call," Moonbyul agreed with a nod.


Jennie took a sip of her tea and sighed.


"What's wrong?" Moonbyul asked.


"I discovered something else when I was following Lisa yesterday."


Moonbyul sat back and listened patiently.


"Even though it doesn't seem like he has a motive, I still think Lisa is involved with Marcus' death," Jennie explained.


She then recalled everything that happened at the strip club the previous day and revealed that Lisa was injured on the night of Marcus' death.


Moonbyul shook his head and ate another chestnut. He then pulled out some doc.u.ments from his briefcase.


"I actually called you today to share some information I was recently notified about."


Jennie looked down and saw a police profile. On the top right corner, there was a photo of a man in his late 20's. The photo looked fairly old, but for some reason, the man looked familiar.


She then scanned her eyes across the man's details and her eyes froze when she saw his name. "Marcus Chin?" she queried.


Moonbyul nodded, "This is officer Marcus Chin; an undercover policeman from the anti-corruption bureau. As you can see from his worn profile, it's been a long time since he last identified himself as an officer."


"Marcus was actually placed into the gangs 12 years ago. As a part of the anti-corruption bureau, he's had an ongoing mission to uncover any police that are colluding with the gangs."


"We suspect his cover may have been compromised. According to what you've discovered, there is a big possibility that Lisa discovered his identity and killed him. That gives him a motive."


Jennie's eyes opened wide in shock.


"So, you need to be extra careful from now on. If he discovers who you are...he may kill you too..."


Moonbyul then pulled out a little hairpin, "This is a tracker. Take this with you tomorrow in case anything happens."


...


As though he had heard Jennie and Moonbyul conversation, Lisa walked into his mysterious study room at that time and grabbed a gun off the shelf of his wall.


He loaded it up and placed it on his desk.


He then looked at the three screens on his desk and made a phone call, "I am going alone tomorrow. The three of you stay at the karaoke bar. I am bringing Jennie there tomorrow. Make sure she doesn't leave."


...


The next day, Jennie arrived at the karaoke bar that Lisa wrote down for her. It was only 5pm, so the place was pretty empty. As soon as she walked in, a woman in a white collared shirt and black pants asked, "Are you Miss Kim?"


Jennie nodded.


The lady gestured for her to follow and Jennie did as told.


The karaoke bar was a lot bigger than it appeared from the outside. As it was underground, it was hard to tell how big it was from ground level.


The place was dark and it was lit by dim lighting. Jennie followed the woman down one corridor after another as muffled music echoed from the rooms that they walked past.


Down here, the karaoke bar felt like a world of its own. Jennie had no idea what was happening in the outside world, and the outside world had no idea what was happening in there. Finally, they stopped outside a room that was labeled 'VVIP'.


"Mr. Manoban waiting inside," the woman said.


Jennie nodded and walked into the room. Sitting inside was Lisa and his three men.


"Lock the door behind you," Lisa instructed.


Jennie immediately did as told.


She then watched as Lisa picked up the remote for the karaoke machine and typed in a ten-digit number.


As soon as he pressed enter, one of the walls grumbled and slid upwards, revealing a stairwell.


"Follow me," Lisa said.


Jennie looked down at the stairwell; the karaoke bar was already underground, but they were going further down. What was down there? Was it safe? Jennie took a deep breath and adjusted her hair clip. She then glanced down at her phone as she started walking down the stairs.


There was no phone signal...
