11. Safety First

"You're getting off this case, detective Park. You're now a victim."

"What the hell, sir!"

"Don't swear at me, it won't change anything."

"That's so unfair! We're making progress! We will be able to catch him soon." Soha Intervened.

"You know what? You're getting off the case, too."

"WHAT?!?!" She exclaimed in indignation.

"You heard me."

"You have no right, Min Yoongi!"

"Would you look at that. You finally stopped calling me sir?"

"That's because I think you're losing it!"

"I don't care what you think, this is no longer your case. Hand over all the evidence to team 2. Actually no, let's hand it over to another precinct altogether."

If looks could kill, Yoongi would be dead and buried by now. He looked over at the two young women and smiled.

"You can go now."

"I'm sorry, but we can't accept this."

He sighed and sat back down behind his desk. After hearing about the messages Nari had received from that psycho, he almost lost his mind. He had really thought that she could still work on the case while being monitored, but now... He wasn't so sure. He too worried about her and with this new turn of events, he was very troubled.

He had told everyone in the precinct to keep quiet about it for now, at least until he could figure out what to do. And this was what he decided. Get these two off this case immediately. The killer leaving a message for one of his detectives near a body was one thing, but him contacting her directly and going to her house was something else. He wasn't going to sit and watch.

Hell, no!

"It's a direct order, what can you do?"

"I'd turn in my gun and my badge if I have to, but I won't rest until I catch him myself."

"Me too," Soha added.

"I'd put you two in prison if that's the only way to keep you safe."

They didn't seem phased by that, at all.

"I mean, why us? The other officers' lives are as precious as ours, so why us?"

"Well, they didn't receive threats directly from the killer."

"I didn't receive any threat, though," Soha interjected.

Nari gave her a look.

"Sorry pal, but it's true."

"I thought we were in this together?"

"Of course, we are. I'm just trying to make a point, okay? He has no reason to take this case from me-"

"Yes he does, he likes you. A lot. It's only normal that he worries about you."

"What? That's BS!"

"Oh, please. It's so obvious!"

"You mean like it's obvious that both the prosecutor and the idol are head over heels for you?"

"Now that's BS."

"It's true and everyone knows it."

"You little-"

"You can continue bickering outside my office, thanks" Yoongi interrupted.

"We're not done!" They exclaimed at the same time.

They exchanged a look, then Nari fired "you're doing this because you like her, admit it."
