☂ Chapter 22 ☂

All their theories came true.

Back when 1PP had been attacked for the first time, they had discovered the gang behind the attack: Effrita. However, back then, it was impossible to track them down. With the evidence Y/n had discovered at the warehouse, they had the first real clues they had in months. The issue was the kids they had rescued had no idea what their kidnappers looked like. Even when strolling around the warehouse, the men hadn't shown their faces and resorted to masks, sunglasses, caps, scarves, and clothes that didn't show an inch of skin. That meant no identifying marks. Hell, the kids couldn't identify so much as a skin color.

Y/n stood in Jungkook's office with Jimin by her side. In any other situation, Jungkook would interrogate them about their love life, especially considering what he had interrupted to get them there. The two had been playing a game called I want your saliva down my throat prior to Jungkook's call, which made it hard to focus, but for the sake of the innocent kids, Y/n did her best. The steamy situation she had been in paired with the long shifts they had been taking caused her brain to fuzz up to the point where new information felt like calculus questions.

"They move all over the City," Jungkook said, slapping a map on his desk and motioning for Jimin and Y/n to come closer. Y/n led the way with Jimin standing so close that she could feel his warm breath tickling her ear. She could smell the mint in it from when he had rushed to brush his teeth before they had left for the station. "Underground, through apartments, through restaurants—everywhere."

Jimin chewed on his nails. His voice came out muffled. "That's not helpful."

"No, but..." Jungkook pressed his finger over Central Park. "They're hiding in plain sight. This is the exchange area. Kids always run around Central Park, so seeing kids here isn't anything out of the ordinary. That's where I'll dispatch the squads. We're setting up a perimeter and waiting. Stakeouts, patrols, frisking, and whatever we have to do without being too obvious."

"You want us on the scene?" Y/n asked, and Jungkook nodded.

"You're part of the stakeout crew. As much as we have a location, we don't have a time and date for all their... activities. Cause no, that'd be too easy, wouldn't it? You'll be on the north side of the park. Seulgi and Hoseok will be on the south, so don't get any ideas about relationship gossip. I'm trusting you'll take this with the seriousness it deserves."

Jimin dipped his head in a bowing motion. "You know I would never jeopardize kids."

Jungkook took a second, then caved. "You're right, I know. If you pull this off, I'll give you that promotion you've been begging for."

Jimin stiffened, but a beat later, a dimple appeared on his cheek as his lips pulled up and crinkled his eyes. "I'm giving you head."

Y/n whacked his shoulder. "Hello, what about me?"

"You got head like thirty minutes ago-"

"Okay," Jungkook interrupted, folding up the map and handing it to Jimin. "Go to the park and stakeout."

"Wha... now?" Jimin opened the map and double-checked it. "We have a location to go off of, nothing more. Shouldn't we wait until we analyze the letters more?"

Jungkook shook his head. "Not nothing because we have analyzed the letters. We know the man behind it, and he's from South Korea like us. We don't know why he's doing it, but he's doing it. I had a sketch artist give us a messy picture based on the descriptions in the letters."
