"Hey." Youngbae merely said, when Chaerin stood before him in his office.

After the news she had received on the phone, she had become a complete mess in Dara's arms. She had had no time to feel embarrassed for having broken down in front of her new friend.

After quickly pulling herself together, she had gotten dressed and rushed to meet up with Youngbae at the police station.

When she had gotten to the station, she had walked straight pass the lady at the desk, who called out to her, and right into Youngbae's office.

"You got here fast." He said.

Chaerin frowned and looked at him. "Youngbae oppa, please tell me you lied over the phone."

Youngbae sighed. "Chae, I wish I could have been lying."

Chaerin looked away and he continued on.

"Unfortunately Jiyong is being charged with murder."

"But... Jiyong-ssi couldn't have done it."

"Chaerin."

"No, listen to me Youngbae oppa. I know Jiyong-ssi didn't kill that girl."

"According to Detective Lee..."

Chaerin was quick to cut Youngbae off. "What did Detective Lee say? Is he the reason Jiyong-ssi is being charged with murder?"

"Chaerin." Youngbae spoke calmly to her. "Detective Lee is only going by the law. Jiyong was covered in blood. He came out of the alley that the girl was in." He sighed. "The evidence points to Jiyong."

Chaerin glared at him. "Did they find Jiyong-ssi's prints at the scene? You aren't telling me anything about that."

"Detective Lee would know all about that. I'm just telling you what I was told, when they had me lock Jiyong up."

"Can I see him?" Chaerin asked.

"Who? Detective Lee or Jiyong?"

"Jiyong-ssi, but I wouldn't mind seeing Detective Lee either. I would like to have a word with him."

Youngbae sighed. "Stay here." He said and got up.

Chaerin sat down and waited as Youngbae walked out of his office.

She knew that before she spoke to Jiyong, she needed to speak to Detective Lee.

"Chaerin."

She quickly stood up and turned to Youngbae." That didn't take long."

Youngbae chuckled. "Yeah, well it seems like Detective Lee would like to speak to you as well." He said.

Chaerin nodded. "Good."

She followed after Youngbae, who led her to Detective Lee's office.

"Go on it. He's waiting for you." Youngbae smiled at her. "Hopefully you will get the answers you are looking for."

Chaerin smiled back and opened the door, stepping into the detective's office.

Seungri sat at his desk and smiled when Chaerin entered the room.

"Have a seat." He motioned to the two chairs before his desk.

Chaerin looked at him and then took the chair closest to the door.

Seungri grinned at this. "So, you wanted to talk to me."
