Jisung was talking with Jeongin when he heard a knock on the door.

Opening the door, he became astounded to see the person in front of him.

"Hwang Hyunjin, in charge of the 'cult murder case' or whatever you call it." He displayed his I'D card.

"W-What do you want?"

"You were Mingi's adoptive son, gotta ask you some questions and I'll be off. Oh yeah, and Seo Changbin too."

"He's not in Daegu at the moment."

"Then I'll interrogate you."

It was a casual Wednesday. They were at school.

"Oh my god, Jisung that's hilarious!" Minho was laughing so much that he almost ran out of breath.

All of the students were stunned. Whispers circulated across the class.

"Look, who's laughing." "The robot is laughing." "I never even saw him smiling, what made him cackle like that?" "He looks cute without his frown."

Jisung hit him playfully. "Stop, I'm already embarrassed."

"No, because you asked a twenty-year-old lady if she had a boyfriend when you were just twelve! Also addressing her with 'noona' nowhere but in front of her boyfriend and that guy is in charge of your adoptive father's murder case."

"I don't wanna face him, it's embarrassing." He covered his face with his hands.

"What's his name again?"

"Hwang Hyunjin."

"What did he inquire about?"

"Stuff like 'Did you hear nothing that night?' 'Were there people that didn't like him?' and 'Why do you go to the theme park?"

"Didn't he ask why we go there having the knowledge he is a suspect?"

"He did. How did you know?"

"I study law, and that is the most conventional question he could include in an inquiry. In addition, he happened to interrogate me too."

"Oh...."

"How did you reply to that question?"

"I said that I trust him and he can never do that."

"That must've given you the glorious opportunity to praise Chan." Minho scoffed.

"Why did you go there then?"

"I sighted a gorgeous cat once and followed behind it, not realizing it led me to the abandoned territory."

"Do you like cats?"

"Yes, excessively."

"Why don't you get one?"

"I want to, but my parents won't let me."
