' it's okay to be scared. being scared means you're about to do something really, really brave '
SEVEN : it's you
jaebum and jinyoung stood outside the room jackson was currently in. the small circular window on the door is what the two looked through to see their coworker yet friend laying upon the bed with heart monitor attached to him. a breathing mask was placed over his mouth and he had a drip attached to his arm. there was bandaids wrapped around his waist, indicating he was severely injured.
"how did this happen?" jaebum asks, pinching the bridge or his nose as he was tensed and confused.
jinyoung leans his back against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest. he leans his head back and sighs. "we don't know. we tried looking at the security footage, but before we could see what happens the screen turns static. like somehow who ever attempted to kill jackson, they rigged the cameras so there won't be any evidence. and they did a rather good job with leaving no traces behind either. there is no clue left behind whats so ever. no fingerprints, even with the knife they tried killing him with is gone. the only evidence we do have is jackson. his mind. he could tell us who it was, or if he at least saw who it was. but he's in a coma. who know's when he's going to wake up."
"he at least survived." jaebum says, looking back at the window to look at their friend.
"yeah, it's a miracle. whoever tried to kill him got him good. but he got lucky, so thank God for that."
jaebum nods his head, gently pulling the ends of his hair in deep frustration. "we have to be careful. we can't trust anyone, we must keep a wide eye on our surroundings. for all we know, the killer could be in this hospital right now."
"don't be dramatic, i don't think the killer would be here in the hospital with us. wouldn't you think they'd try to stay away from us? they're clever, for all we know they could be planning their next kill."
"who knows, but whoever the killer may be... jackson will know. all we have to do now is wait for him to wake up, and i hope that's soon."
(!)
what happened on that night:
the delicious smell of light vanilla scented aroma filled the air around the security guard who was seated on the white plastic chair. his elbows rested upon the surface of the circular table as the hot cup of coffee just sat their in silence. jackson's eyes were glued to the coffee filled cup as if he was in some sort of deep daze. thoughts filled his mind, not leaving any empty space for him to breath. the news of people constantly dying while the killer is hiding under their noses makes his chest feel tight. it seem so easy to catch the disgusting killer, but yet it was difficult all at the same time.
he knew that deep down, the two detectives needed help to solve the case. this was such a big case at that too, how could two people just solve it? when jaebum had asked jackson for help earlier, he knew it was his duty to do so. he felt bad for them both. they were both so tired and stressed. everyone was, in fact. but once they catch the monster of goyang city, the people will finally be at peace.
