City of Secrets (EXO fanfic season 2) ON HOLD

Lucifer

The next morning, Somin gathered all the men into the living room and told them of her plan,

"We need to find out all we can about Rising Sun. It might have nothing to do with anything but I don't want to overlook any possibilities. It's very strange that my father would sever all ties in what appeared to be a lucrative deal."

Some of the men nodded their heads in agreement as she continued,

"I know I can't confront them directly about this. I think our best course of action would be to retrace my father's steps to back before the deal was terminated to find out what caused it. What do you guys think?"

Somin addressed the men and opened the floor to questions. The first to speak was Namjoon,

"Rising Sun was before our time so my men and I can't tell you very much, but we'll do what we can to get as much information to you as possible."

Somin smiled at him kindly and thanked him before looking at the others,

"What about you guys?"

Suho was the first to respond,

"I know someone from my earlier years of this life who might be able to help. When he isn't swindling the rich, he has a plethora of information about international companies. He might know about Rising Sun."

"Can you find him?"

Somin asked him inquisitively. Suho nodded,

"Yes. He runs a nightclub downtown called Lucifer. He should know everything worth knowing about Rising Sun."

"Anything I should know about him?"

Suho hesitates slightly before answering her question,

"Well, he can be a little... he's a bit of a Casanova, if you get my meaning."

Somin tilted her head in confusion, causing her hair to slip off her shoulder and frame her face as he explained,

"He can be a bit of a flirt and is easily distracted by a pretty face. The problem is that it's easier to get information out of him if a woman approaches him, but he has a difficult time staying focused. It's sort of a catch 22."

Somin nodded in understanding,

"I gotcha. Do you know the places he frequents? If need be I can speak to him."

Suho gave her a measured look as he responded,

"He's always at Lucifer. If you want Baekhyun, Kai, and myself will take you there and introduce you to him. What do you say?"

Somin thought it over for a moment before turning to Kris,

"What do you think? Do you have any input?"

Kris leaned back in his chair and looked at the hazel eyed girl before him as he spoke,

"I believe I know the man Suho is talking about. Song Minjae, correct? In that case bringing three men isn't nearly enough. Minjae is more than just a swindler, he runs a large amount black market auctions and private 'parties' for the rich. People want him dead and he knows it. Three men won't even come close to the amount of armed bodyguards he'll have dispersed throughout the club. Here's what I suggest: Luhan and Tao enter first, then Baekhyun and Kai, Xiumin and Chen, Sehun and D.O., and finally Chanyeol and Lay. Suho, myself, and you will enter after Baekhyun and Kai. Each arrival will be staggered by ten minutes. It sounds like a lot but once you get in there you won't notice how much time has passed. If we all walk in together it'll put Minjae on alert and he won't talk. We have to make this look somewhat natural. Now Namjoon, you and your men will need to take point outside of the club. If you see anything suspicious you need to let us know immediately. Somin will have to stay inside but the rest of us will be able to help. For the moment we have to assume that the house is currently being watched, even though we haven't caught anyone, and that there will be an assassination attempt on Somin. I know how it sounds but this is the safest way to do this. If this goes south all of us are gonna have to work together to get Somin out of there. Which reminds me, we can't all enter through the front door. Obviously Suho, Somin, and I will but among the other pairs you'll have to decide who comes in the front and who goes through the back."
