SEOJOON'S POV
-Time skip two weeks later-

-Yeri: Yah! I told you to allow me to control the music... I have a better taste than you...
-Seojoon: This is my car! And it is already enough that I allowed you to come along! Plus, you made me wait for you because you didn't have holidays until now... (sighs)
-Yeri: Your stupid reputation depends on me, just so you didn't know... If you get me pissed, I swear that I'll confess to your boss that you are hiding this case!
-Seojoon: Fine... Go ahead, I'm starting to get tired about you anyway... I'll agree with whatever makes me get away from you...
-Yeri: You- Agh! So annoying! I hate you...
-Seojoon: Cool, the feeling is mutual...

Oh my god

Oh my god... I would have never thought, that during my first case, I would need to travel along a student to Taebaek.

This is being one of the worst experiences ever... Why is she so annoying? Why can't she just stop bothering me? I'm just trying to do my job...

-Time skip until you arrive Taebaek-

-Yeri: Woah, it is already night...
-Seojoon: Yeah, if we didn't have to stop a lot of times because someone needed to pee... (glares at Yeri)
-Yeri: That's not fair! Since you are a boy, you have ig easier, you can do it anywhere...
-Seojoon: Whatever, let's look for a hotel...
-Yeri: Are we staying in a hotel?
-Seojoon: Yeah, that's what I said
-Yeri: Not gonna happen... I think it's better if we just sleep at the car... (chuckles) I'm not gonna step in a hotel...
-Seojoon: Why not?
-Yeri: My mother told me not to enter a hotel with a man never ever...
-Seojoon: Why is that? (expecting)
-Yeri: She said that I would be pregnant the next day morning...
-Seojoon:...
-Yeri: What?!
-Seojoon: (burst laughing)
-Yeri: Why are you laughing?! (embarrassed)
-Seojoon: You actually try acting all mature, but you don't know something as basic as how babies are done... Although you slept with a man, if you don't have sex you won't get pregnant... (laughs) Plus, there's something called condom... You never had that talk with your parents?
-Yeri: No... (looks down embarrassed)
-Seojoon: (sighs) However, if you feel uncomfortable sleeping in a hotel, we'll sleep at the car... But just so you know, it is the same... Idiot.
-Yeri: (mumbling) Thank you...

I don't get to understand what she last says, but since I'm really tired, I decide to prepare everything and try to get asleep as soon as I lay... Tomorrow we'll find Baek Taejin.

-Time skip to the next day-

I wake up and notice that in alone at the car... Agh, seriously, what a college did I get... She abandons me here like nothing...

Suddenly, I spot someone approaching the car, I head outside to see her carrying something in her arms... What is she doing?

-Yeri: Good morning Seocat (smiles)
-Seojoon: Good- What did you just call me? (confused)
-Yeri: You sleep more than what I expected and I was bored... I played a bit to kill the time (chuckles)
-Seojoon: Huh?!
-Yeri: Why don't you check yourself with a mirror? (smiles)

Oh gosh... What did she do to me this time? I look myself at the car's mirror just to notice that she played with my hair and made it look like two ears... Why is she mature and childish at the same level?!

 Why is she mature and childish at the same level?!

-Seojoon: You are a kid... You don't stop bothering me... Not even when I'm sleeping... Seriously, this is tiring... (complains)
-Yeri: Aw, don't start the day moody, look, I brought the breakfast, and I got Baek Taejin's address and registration... (smirks)
-Seojoon: Are you serious?! How did you do that?!
-Yeri: Asking people (smiles) I have a cute face and I know how to come up with excuses... It was easy (srughs)
-Seojoon: Uh... Well, I guess you can be useful sometimes... (smiles) Good job, Yeri...
-Yeri: Of course (smirks proudly)

-Time skip until you reach Taejin's house-

We arrive to his house in a really peaceful neighborhood... There's not too much traffic, and it is quite silent... It is such a perfect place for those who want a peaceful life...

-Seojoon: (knocks the door) Mr. Baek! This is the police, open the door please!
-Yeri: Aren't you being way too direct?
-Seojoon: This is how it works, we'll open soon... (srughs) Mr. Baek!
-Taejin: (opens the door) How can I help you, sir? (confused)
-Seojoon: We just want to have a peaceful talk with you, is it possible? (smiles)
-Taejin: Sure, come inside and take a seat... (smiles and bows)

We follow him to the living and take a seat when who we think is his wife, starts serving us tea along some delicious cookies...

-Taejin: So, how may I help you?
-Seojoon: We want to talk about your time in S3, when you where a student living in Seoul...
-Taejin: Yeah, what about it? (smiles)
-Yeri: We have this... (takes out the old magazine)

Suddenly, we notice how the warmth and the smile at his face, start disappearing and turning into a serious and straight face...

-Taejin: What do you want to know about it?
-Yeri: Everything you know about the missing girl... Please, we want to know how did you write the article, and why this magazine is a secret for everyone...

-Taejin: (sighs) Aren't you too young to care for such an old thing? I think you should enjoy your time dating rather than wasting your time here

-Seojoon: (face palms) We are not a couple sir... We are just colleagues...
-Taejin: Ah, my bad... (chuckles)
-Yeri: Please, answer my question (serious)
-Taejin: (sighs) Fine... The missing girl from my article, was Shin Sooyoung, she disappeared from one day to another...
-Yeri: Are you taking notes, Seocat?
-Seojoon: You should be the one taking them, but yeah, I am...
-Taejin: No one really found the corpse... But I wrote about the conflict between the Shin and the Park...
-Seojoon: What happened between those two families?
-Taejin: It is a long long story... (clears his throat)
