Information All Around

The moonlight illuminating the darkness around me gives me just enough visibility to move swiftly. Staying out of sight while leaving my line of vision clear. Two men exit the building across the street. Each with a gun in a holster, not properly hidden.

They seem to be having a light hearted conversation. Smiles seen as they pass underneath a street light.

The men don't appear to be on a mission. They don't seem experienced nor high ranking. As they walk they look too relaxed, no sign of paying attention to their surroundings. I've also never seen them before. They were most likely hired after I left.

Not properly training the newbies. Got it.

Turning my gaze back to the building I see a group of about 10 people enter through the doors in the alleyway. A brief moment of loud yelling and cheering emitting from the entrance. The group disappearing behind the walls.

"Changbin, you good in there?" I whisper, our earpieces on and working.

*cough*

He responds, signaling that he's doing fine.

I nod to myself, focusing back on my surroundings. Ensuring I'm still hidden well enough.

"Y/N, two girls just exited the building on my side. They're talking about heading down the alley you're in" Jeongin gives me a heads up.

I scan the area, spotting two figures walking down the alley across the way. They're not quite past the doors yet. Giving me enough time to hide myself further.

Crouching down, I wedge myself behind the trash can I pulled out earlier. It's at a slight diagonal, the gap bigger towards the back and smaller towards the front where the entrance to the alley is.

I hear faint voices. Growing louder each second. Quickly, I pull my hood over my head and put my hand over my pocket knife.

Their footsteps grow closer. The sound of shoe colliding with wet concrete. I press play on the recording device in my pocket. Just in case they say anything important.

"I can't believe Jay fell for that" one laughs out, condescendingly.

"Yeah, he always makes everyone else do his job and gets mad at us when we mess up a little" the other agrees, the pair now beside me.

"Right? How can he get mad at us when he couldn't even stop people from taking his whole hostages" the first one replies, now coming into view.

They're dressed in casual clothes. Only their outline and faint colors of fabric visible.

"Are you ready for tomorrow? Apparently he's going to take another group, this time girls" a girl asks while stopping to tie her shoe, finally giving me something juicy

"I guess, I wish he wouldn't. You know he's just trying to find Y/N right?" The other answers, looking around then back to her friend who's standing up.

"Really? I thought he killed her? That's what he told my survey squad" The one tying her shoes says, sounding genuinely confused.

"Huh? He told us that he planned to find both her and Chan and kill her in front of him. As like pay back for something" The other responds, looking around and pulling her friend to start walking.

"I don't understand why. They were just kids, he didn't have to take them in. He's the one that has their parents locked away somewhere, they're who he wanted not the kids" She says, their voices fading as they walk further down the alley.

What?

"Man my throat is scratchy" Changbin's voice sounds in my ear, signaling he has enough information and is exiting the building.
