"After returning from the fight, we didn't find her; she was gone by then. We did a lot of searching, then we knew she stopped at a village, maybe that's the time she moved in to you and your mother," Kim Hyun Suk finished his words, looking at Jhope, then looking at Jin.

"I see..." Jhope only nodded.

"And after some months, as you know, Kim Bo Hyun dies in a mission. Well, the whole world knows that. He died in regret, I guess."

"He couldn't hide. He wasn't so weak to die like that, but he allowed himself to die because he had nothing to live for. Jisoo unnie, whom he loved so much, he lost her so he lost his source to live as well. That's why he let that gun shoot him," Park Jay said.

"Whatever Jisoo wanted in you, you have all of them, Jin. Her beauty, her innocence, her care for others, and her pure, golden heart, you have everything she wanted except one thing for which she prayed so hard. But guess what? Fate wanted it, that's why. Nothing could stop it," Hyun Suk said, with a small smile.

"W-what?" Jin asked, stuttering, also curious.

"Being in the Mafia world," Kim Hyun Suk said, his gaze falling on Jungkook, making him immediately understand what he tried to say.

"You... forget it," Jungkook immediately calmed himself down when he found Jin being all silent.

"I think Jin needs time to process. Jin, come with me," Rosé suddenly said as she stood up and went towards Jin, who had his head down, all silent. "Jinnie honey, let's get inside and talk, hmm," Rosé said softly, gently caressing Jin's hair, "you two should come too," Rosé said. Jhope and Jimin nodded immediately, stood up as the two helped Jin get up and took him inside the room, leaving the Mafias alone to talk.

"Do you have any questions?" Hyun Suk asked.

"If you knew Jin was your grandson, then why didn't you come to get him first?" Jungkook asked, taking a deep breath.

"We were having a hard time finding him, Jungkook. We didn't know at first that Jisoo auntie would actually leave Russia and go back to Korea. She stayed at a village where I believe she met with Jhope and his mother, and started to live there. While here, we were searching for her every day all around the whole Russia and Europe. We forgot to search at Asia, we actually didn't have an idea that she could go back to her motherland because she didn't have anyone there, that's why we didn't think that. Even after Uncle Bo Hyun died, we still searched for her madly," Kim Mingyu explained.

"Yes, and that took us a lot of time. Many years passed when we got in the position as the Ruler. Also, we had to search in silence as we can't let our enemies or Mafia know about Uncle Bo Hyun's son, which will make people want to lure him. Grandpa suddenly wanted to visit Korea. So, we agreed, and he went there with some of our bodyguards. And I still don't know why he became a bus driver there," Park Jay said, looking at Hyun Suk.

"Wait, a bus driver?" Jungkook said, confused hearing that. He suddenly remembered something. "Wait... I remember Jin saying a bus would drop him to my office at first. Was that—"

"Yes, it was me," Hyun Suk agreed, confusing everyone.

"The tension and stress about losing both my son and daughter-in-law, I thought to have a visit to my motherland Korea. Before I became a member of the Mafia world, I used to drive a bus when I was much younger, so to relieve the stress and have a bit of memory, I hid my identity and started to drive a bus simply for enjoyment. Also, to hide from any enemies. If they knew I was there, anyone would attack me. So, one day I was casually driving when I first met him. Jin, your love," Hyun Suk smiled, remembering the first time he met Jin at the bus stop a long time ago. "As soon as I saw him, I knew his face resembled someone. It looked familiar to me. His voice, his words, everything about him seemed familiar and similar to me. That time, I knew I knew him; his presence felt familiar to me. So, I'd always wait at the bus stand for him to arrive so that I can drop him. Of course, I was confused at first on why he wanted to go to you. I laughed a lot when at first I asked where he wants to go. He replied he wants to go to Mr. Bunny guy. So adorable, isn't it?" Kim Hyun Suk laughed, remembering it. His words made everyone there smile. Jungkook could sense Jin would say something like that, knowing at first they weren't in good terms and Jin would call him bunny-looking guy. This made Jungkook smile fondly as he waited for Hyun Suk to continue.
