Running Man: Mong Ji (Sequel: On Hold)

Chapter 39-An Act

"So? Can you guys solve it?" Ji Hyo asked, feeling impatient as the riddle was still unsolved.

"Nope," Jong Kook was still focusing on the letter. But the others had pratically given up and were back to eating and drinking.

"Someone might be in danger," Ji Hyo sat on a couch, feeling exhausted by everything that had happened.

"Ji Hyo ah, I really don't know," Jong Kook, like Gary, have read the letter umpteen times.

"If even Jong Kook can't solve it, who will?" Ji Hyo thought.

'Ji Hyo, can I bring this letter back to my house, maybe I will solve it. How about I return it to you next week?' Jong Kook suggested.

'Sure,' Ji Hyo smiled as she answered, without giving much thought into it.

After an hour or so of attempting to solve the riddle, but to no avail, Haha was discharged and all of them decided to leave. Everyone left the hospital in separate ways. Jong Kook was driving Haha home, Jae Suk and Eun Ji, Gary and Ji Hyo, and lastly, Nick and Eun Hye together in a car.

Ji Hyo was keeping her eye on Eun Hye's car and was impatient to know what's going on between the two.

"Gary Oppa, I'll drive," Ji Hyo volunteered as she took the car keys from Gary and got into the driver's seat.

"Sure. Ji Hyo ah, I booked a table at K restaurant, let's go, okay?" Gary was sitting next to Ji Hyo.

"Oppa, we have to follow Eun Hye's car, I think something fishy is going on between them," Ji Hyo started tailing Nick's car.

"Why? What happened?" Gary was feeling disappointed.

"Because, I saw the two of them exchanged weird looks, and they might be up to something which is no good" Ji Hyo continued driving as she explained.

'Okay,' Gary obeyed.

(At X mental hospital…)

Jae Suk dropped Eun Ji off at where Kwang Soo was and reminded her to be careful.

'Yes, I will be. Bye,' Eun Ji waved as she walked to Kwang Soo's ward after being given directions.

Eun Ji reached Kwang Soo's ward and sat on a stool next to Kwang Soo's bed. Kwang Soo was handcuffed, to prevent him from attacking anyone.

'Hi Kwang Soo, I'm Eun Ji, your psychiatrist,' Eun Ji introduced her.

'Oh, it's you. I'm sorry about what happened in the hospital that day,' Kwang Soo realised.

'It's okay. It was your alter ego,' Eun Ji explained.

'Okay, so how do I make it vanish?' Kwang Soo asked.

'It's hard to make it vanish. But first, you must learn how to control it by forgetting it and forgiving the people who abused you, so that you won't be frightened by the incident anymore,' Eun Ji replied.

'Okay,' Kwang Soo nodded.

'Now, onto phase two,' Eun Ji smiled.

(In Eun Hye's car…)

'Wow,' Eun Hye exclaimed as she looked at the rearview mirror of the car.

'What?' Nick asked.

'Look behind. That car has been following us since fifteen minutes ago,' Eun Hye said.

Nick looked behind and scrutinised the car. 'I think Ji Hyo and that Gary guy are in that car,' Nick was shocked.

'Call Mr Song and tell him we will be late. But we'll make it to his office,' Eun Hye spoke.

Nick followed what Eun Hye had instructed and looked behind. 'They're still behind us. And Mr Song said he'll wait for us. I explained the situation to him,' Nick placed his cellphone back ino his pocket.

'Don't worry. We're going somewhere else. Later, we'll be putting on an act, so just play along,' Eun Hye smiled cunningly and explained to Nick what they were going to do later.

'Okay. Perfect plan,' Nick agreed.

Soon, Nick and Eun Hye reached their destination. It was an abandoned warehouse.

Behind them, Ji Hyo parked the car in an area so that Nick and Eun Hye will not spot it. Gary and Ji Hyo then started following the other two.

Eun Hye and Nick entered the warehouse, with Ji Hyo and Gary at the entrance, listening to their conversation.

'Now we have the letter in our hands, we can burn it so that no one will be able to solve it and someone will die peacefully. And then it'll be easy for us to kill the rest of them,' Eun Hye slammed a table near her, which startled the other three.

'Right. Jong Kook is a perfect spy, now we just need him to hand the letter over to us. I'll call him,' Nick took out his phone and pretended to call Jong Kook and had a fake conversation with him.

Listening to all this, Ji Hyo and Gary were flabbergasted that Jong Kook was a spy. After the call between Nick and Jong Kook ended, the Monday Couple immediately fled to Gary's car.

'Wow, Jong Kook oppa is evil too?' Ji Hyo and Gary were now in the car.

'Unbelievable,' Gary was appalled too.

Ji Hyo then started driving and was still feeling angry. 'Jong Kook oppa, I trusted you,' Ji Hyo mumbled.

'So where are we going now?' Gary asked, noticing that Ji Hyo was driving the car at a high speed.

'Jong Kook oppa's house,' Ji Hyo tightened her fingers around the driving wheel.
