Secrets

Chapter 32

Jake sat back against the wall outside, preparing himself for another battle with the inmates in order for him to get stronger than Gun. Maybe even fight to get Sinu back. "Jake." He turned his head at the mention of his name as a guard approached him. "Your visitor called and said she will be a little late." The guard informed him to which Jake nodded.

"Trouble?" Jake asked, simply out of curiosity.

The guard rolled his eyes, "Don't know that's all she said." He then turned and walked off, not allowing Jake anytime to respond.

Jake watched him leave before looking up at the sky watching as the sun began to fall, the sky became more red than orange. "She's not usually late." Jake mumbled to himself before slipping off the top of his jumper, revealing well toned muscles that have grown and became more toned. "Guess I'll find another way to pass the time." He sighed as the inmates began to surround him as he rolled his shoulder. "Don't go easy on me, give me your all." He raised his fists ready to fight.

I sighed as I looked at my phone seeing a text from Zack sending me an address with nothing but a text saying, "Jiho got into trouble again." I shake my head, disappointed that Jiho hadn't learned from the first time as I made my way to the address. Although it makes sense for his behavior lately, he has been acting strange and after that whole scam thing in class? Yeah ... Jiho wouldn't scam anyone, he must've done something stupid again.

I walked into the internet cafe with my hands in my jacket pockets, letting out an annoyed sigh. "Seriously, didn't you learn the first time?" Jiho jumped as he turned his head, flinching as I glared down at him. He lowered his head, like a dog that got caught doing something they shouldn't do.

I then noticed pretty much everyone but Jay was here, ready to help Jiho despite him messing up a second time. I looked at Zack who looked back at me, he then shrugged before mouthing, "Thought he was his friend." I ran my fingers through my hair, sighing as I shook my head. Zack then pointed at the chair for Jiho to sit in, then leaned close to the computer as we all gathered around. "This idiot messed up again so, let's help him. Since we're friends." Zack spoke as Jiho began to make his way to the posts with all the scams. "Since the cyber crimes division and banks rest on the weekends, we can't stop the scams that come up on weekends. We have to find the scammers before saturday." Zack stated as he took the mouse from Jiho and began to scroll through the scams. "The police report will be processed on monday. We need to find the account before then, and return the money. Because even lending the account is a crime." He informed us as he placed his hands on his hips, turning to the rest of us. "If we want to stop this from getting worse, we need to catch the scammers as soon as possible."

Zoe then glared down at Jiho, "Yo Jiho, just go and die you ass." She grumbled before smacking him on the head lightly. "Why even live, ugh." Jiho lowered his head in guilt, rubbing the back of his head where Zoe hit, mumbling a small apology.

"And we'll find the culprits on our own." Zack finished his statement. 

 "Zack, is there even a way to do that? How will we find them?" Mira questioned as he began to play with her fingers in a stress like manner.

Zack then picked up a sheet of paper with a bunch of usernames on it, "I searched the numbers on the hiphone X scam, and these IDs popped up." He held a smirk on his features, "They use multiple IDs with a single number, you see. If an account's blocked, they make another one, but burner phones have to be bought."

"I-I see! What a genius!" Mira praised with a bright smile.

I placed a hand on her shoulder, "Careful, you're going to make his head grow bigger."
