Welcome to the last season of Mystic Messenger! Please enjoy this chapter.

Jihoon? But what is he doing here? How did he get here? Where exactly is here? Multiple questions were running through Jimin's mind as he's trying to process things. "Where are we?" He finally asked after minutes of silence.

Jihoon adjusted himself against the wall, "I'm not sure myself, when he took me I was drugged and knocked out for a couple of hours before you came."

"He?"

"Taemin. It seems things aren't going according to plan for him though. He completely lashed out saying it's not time yet and why is she speeding things up."

"She? There's somebody else helping him?" Jimin was confused at first but then remembered what he saw in the group chat about his mother. "Oh... My mother."

This caught Jihoon's attention, "How did you figure that out?"

Jimin sighed looking up at the window, "Well, Yoongi and everyone were saying it's not really confirmed on who the actual accomplice is but, one thing they do know for sure is that she's not my biological mother." Mentioning Yoongi's name brought tears to his eyes as he realizes he doesn't know when or if he'll be able to see him again.

"I'm so scared." he mutters as he closes his eyes.

Yoongi has been out of it since Jimin was taken.

He would frantically rush the group or consistently ask them have they found him yet. Granted this did put a lot of unnecessary added stress upon the group, so Jin took it upon himself to force Yoongi to go upstairs, drink some water and take a breather.

Unbeknownst to Yoongi, two crushed pills of melatonin was mixed in the water so he was able to fall asleep quickly.

Everyone then went back to what they were doing  gathering information and coming up with different articulated ideas to get Jimin back unharmed.

"I looked up all CCTV footage within the area and found the car Taemin may have driven when he took Jimin." Namjoon says moving the monitor over so that everyone else could see the footage. And indeed, it shows from the moment Taemin walked out with Jimin over his shoulder before putting him in the car, driving off from one street to another until it stops just before the car passes the 13th street light camera. "There's no more footage available after they pass this camera so I can only assume from here on out they're in a rural area."

Taehyung speaks up first, "How can you tell it's a rural area? For all we know it could be a back road that also has lack of CCTV."

"Well for one, I noticed the major road go from three lanes to one lane. Not a lot of major roads do that, and if they do, it most likely goes into a two lane. Two, in the last footage shown,  you can start to see the road itself getting bumpier and the car is going slower than it did in the earlier clips. And lastly," Namjoon leans over to get closer to the screen and points right beside the traffic light.

A Street name.

"That's our lead."
