Jong Kook and Xiao Chan came to 3rd floor and met up with Cheerin. She went behind a cashier and the others followed.
"So, what floor we haven't search yet?" Cheerin asked.
"Store again...security desk, and..." Jong Kook tried to remember the places.
"Ah...and bbq restaurant!" Xiao Chan whispered.
"Ok, it means 3 floors. You..." Just before Cheerin could finish her sentence, They were spotted by Jihyo. The 4 of them froze just like a statue, starring one to each other awkwardly. Xiao Chan waved his hand slowly and smiled awkwardly.
"RUN!" Cheerin got up and ran. The others followed. Jihyo called the others using her walkie talkie.
"OPPPAA! WHERE ARE YOU! COME QUICK!! 3RD FLOOR! 3RD FLOOR!" Jihyo screamed to the walkie talkie. But the gap was getting bigger between both teams. Cheerin, Jong Kook, and Xiao Chan used the escalator. Suddenly, Jaesuk appeared out of nowhere. So did Gary. They both came from the jail nearby.
"Shoot..." Cheerin Exclaimed. Jong Kook, Xiao Chan, and Cheerin turned their backs and went up the escalator. But at the other side, Jihyo awaits. Xiao Chan grabbed her, protecting Cheerin and Jong Kook. He released her hands and left. Unfortunately, he was caught by Gary.

"XIAO CHAN, OUT!! XIAO CHAN, OUT!!" The announcement was made. Cheerin Jong Kook had nothing to do anymore. They searched for piece of map at the 3rd floor.
They seperated to find the map easier. Jong Kook came across a huge pile of cloth when sudddenly, he realized that there were a paper sticking out of it. He took it out and there it was.
"Found one...Found one!!!" Jong Kook reported Cheerin. It was a Malaysian flag. He looked the map further, and there was an "out" sign.
DING DONG DAENG DONG...The bell rang again. "JIHYO, OUT!! JIHYO, OUT!!" Jihyo was shocked. So did the red team.
"What the..." Jaesuk exclaimed. He was wandering around the 1st floor, searching for the blue team.
"Guys, Guys, GUYS!! C'mon search for them quickly!" Jaesuk hurried everyone. The red team scurried of to the 2nd floor for a better search.

"Great job, oppa!" Cheerin hugged Jong Kook happily. Jong Kook was blushed. But the hug didn't last long since they didn't have much time. "Let's go!" Cheerin persuaded. They both went down the emergency stairs. Unfortunately, they bumped into Mark.
"Owh GOD!" Cheerin cried. Jong Kook and Cheerin went back to the 3rd floor. They slam the door, blocking the entrance from the other side. Mark called Jaesuk, Gary, and Malik to help out. Jong Kook and Cheerin heard it with a worry expression. So, both of them let the door go and ran. Mark chased them again.
"Oppa, trust me. Go to a store! Corner yourself! Delay time for me!" Cheerin thought of a plan. Jong Kook was worried. He couldn't believe what she said. Even when she was known for her activeness and her tomboy charasteristic, Jong Kook thought a girl is still a girl. "Are you sure about this? Alone? Yourself?" Jong Kook asked. "It's ok. GO!" Cheerin said. Therefore, they splitted.
As planned, Jong Kook ended up being cornered by Mark. Jaesuk came in, so did Gary and Malik. "Come here!" Jong Kook said with his horror tone. "COME HERE!" He yelled this time with his hand stretched to the front.Everyone froze, even Mark. Little by little, they went nearer the attack zone. Then, they confront Jong Kook. Jong Kook was pushing them from himself.

While Jong Kook delayed some time, Cheerin searched freely. Even so, she ran here and there, searching for the map at the 1st floor.
"Bbq restaurant...BBQ RESTAURANT, WHEREE THE HECK ARE YOU?" She yelled softly. She finally found it. Luckily, the map was at the front of the restaurant. The menu stand, to be exact. She ran towards it in relief, but...
"JONG KOOK, OUT!! JONG KOOK, OUT!!" A really shocking news was made. "What?" She exclaimed to the camera, unbelievably.

Jong Kook cried in exhaustion. Mark gave him a hand. He pat his back too. "Mianhae, hyung...J" Mark apologized softly and left him.
