Jungkook laid his head down tiredly at his desk. The day had been slow so far and boredom was turning into sleepiness. Taehyung was already completely asleep at his desk, a small puddle of drool forming on his desk. Jungkook couldn't help but let out a laugh as he saw it.

Just when Jungkook was almost asleep, his desk phone began ringing, making him quickly sit up, and jolting Taehyung awake with a scare. He panted heavily, the shock wearing off.

"Sure, why not wake up to a heart attack", he panted out as Jungkook giggled and picked up the phone, holding it to his ear.

"Jeon", he answered. He wrote down a note before mumbling and okay and hanging up. He looked over at Taehyung," Murder downtown"

"Can we get food on the way please?", Taehyung whined.

"If you didn't suggest it, I was gonna", Jungkook yawned. They both began to slowly and tiredly get up as Seokjin approached their desks with a chuckle.

"I wasn't sure if you two were dead or sleeping", he chuckled.

"And yet you didn't try and wake us up", Jungkook grumbled.

"You have to understand two things: One, I value my life and don't want to die. And two, I'm not stupid", Seokjin said, making Taehyung and Jungkook share a look. They both nodded, knowing he was right, and walked out.

Jungkook and Taehyung walked up to Jimin at the crime scene, sandwiches and tea in their hands. They didn't even bother to take a break from eating as Jimin turned to them with a confused and slightly disgusted look.

"Are you really eating at a crime scene?", he asked. Jungkook just gave him a glare, warning him not to question it," Moving on, vic's name is Joyce Lalit cause of death is suffocation as far as I can see. I'm placing time of death at around midnight"

"Another bar fight gone wrong?", Jungkook asked.

"No, stupid, bar fights don't end in body bags", Taehyung mumbled, his mouth full of food. They were both fairly grumpy individuals when sleep was taken from them, and that was becoming increasingly obvious.

"That's why I said gone wrong", Jungkook spat back. Jimin sighed and shook his head. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a small baggy with white power in it.

"You two really need more sleep", he mumbled.

"What's this?", Jungkook asked, taking it from her.

"Don't know but I found it clutched tightly in her hand", Jimin shrugged.

"Okay, let's get this in for testing", Jungkook nodded as he handed the substance in the baggy back to Jimin, only to have it taken right back by Taehyung.

"I can tell you what this is here and now", Taehyung said.

"We're waiting", Jungkook said, impatiently putting his hands on his hips.

"There's only one thing I know of that comes in a bag like this that looks like this", he said before pausing again, just to annoy Jungkook out of spite," And that's cocaine"

"Why would she have that?", Jungkook asked. Both Jimin and Taehyung shrugged their shoulders. Taehyung handed the baggy back to Jimin and he and Jungkook left.

Seokjin walked up to the duo's desks about a half an hour after they returned. He handed Jungkook a file, which Jungkook opened right away.
