"Detective, I think it's a good opportunity to tell me what happened back in that place," Taehyung said as you stopped fiddling with the lock, still a bit shocked on what happened earlier.

He knelt beside you as you rested your hands on your lap, one gripping the key a bit hard. Biting your teeth, you tried to fight back the urge to break down in front of the man.

"I- uh.. I-" However, it was obvious in your voice that you were traumatized. You have to admit, it was the first time you saw someone die before your very eyes. You thought you were about to die to when Ran Rin suddenly pointed the gun at you. And also, the masked man...

You gulped before responding, "After I went to the Children's Grand Park, I saw Ran Rin. She looked nervous, as if someone was spying her," you said as Taehyung comfortably rubbed circles on your back.

"I greeted her, then she said something I couldn't remember anymore. But she dragged me to her home," Taehyung rose his eyebrow. She said something but you couldn't remember anymore? What if it was something important?

"When we went here," You stood up and glanced at the place, Taehyung following your movements soon after, "We sat at the small table, discussing something."

"And what was it?" Taehyung asked.

"She said she knows someone in the MAFIA," The said male jumped. His skin turned cold and his hands became sweaty when the name was mentioned. He looked down, a bit nervous but he knows he has to keep this up. Otherwise, you'll suspect him for his odd behavior.

"Did she say a name?" Taehyung would probably do something regretful to you. He waited patiently, waited for a perfect opportunity to strike and plan quietly while waiting for you to respond.

"She said 'Jung Habeom', and after that we went outside. I don't know why but anyway she told me the MAFIA consisted of 7 members," You said while walking around the place, still cautious about stepping on the marked spots, "She said that they were everywhere, kinda sends a chill down your spine don't you think?"

"Yeah..." Taehyung trailed off, watching you pace around the room.

"She also said something about a rabbit masked killer. It wasn't part of my investigation but she said that the killer would be a nuisance to my detective work. Have you known about this issue?" You asked Taehyung. The said man gulped, however he managed to send a smooth reply.

"I know about the rabbit masked killer, although no one has been assigned to it yet as much as I know," He said as he crossed his arms, shifting his one leg to his other. He got tired of standing and decided to sit on the chair you borrowed. He watched as you glanced outside the window, noticing the rain was gone and it was only left with muddy and slippery grounds.

"I see," You said, "Well, you know the time where the captain's assistant called me?" Taehyung nodded.

He finished your sentence without thinking, "You were assigned to the rabbit masked killer."

"Not yet. Not yet, Taehyung," You said, fiddling with Taehyung's warm vest, "Why not?" Taehyung asked.

"I got your back, the police officers do. The whole police department does," He added, resting his elbows on his knees as he leaned his body forward. He noticed the stressed look on your face and decided not to press any further, "I wish I could but it's too stressful. We have the MAFIA case on our hands and it has already been a nuisance, even without the rabbit masked killer case. If we handle both the MAFIA and rabbit masked killer one at the same time, it'll be like serving two masters at the same time."

Taehyung nodded. It is true. Even with a lot of people joining together to fight against a certain community or one person, they don't know how capable their enemies are. We're talking about the MAFIA here, some of them cannot fully read or understood their abilities or even their objectives. A moment of silence passed before you decided to go back and open the locked outlet.
