"So..." Taehyung folds his hands together on the surface of the table, regarding his best friend seriously.
Silence fell over the booth where Jimin and Teahyung sat, their plates cleared and table cleaned.
"Ice is gone..." he states quietly.
Jimin nods.
"Who else?" He adds.
"A few of his homies....they were in on the setup..." Jimin shrugs, sipping through the straw of his drink.
"You covered your tracks?..." Taehyung furrows his brow and Jimin swallows and glances up at him.
His expression flattens, scowling with the word "really?" written smugly across it and Taehyung chuckles.
"That only leaves one person then.." Taehyung leans back and folds his arms over his body.
Jimin nods wordlessly.
"And you're sure it was him?" Taehyung says just above a whisper, narrowing his eyes to lock with Jimin.
"Positive."
Taehyung squints as he searched Jimins eyes for anything that could prove otherwise and when he found nothing, he shrugs.
"Ok. "
"Yea?" Jimin frowns.
"Yea.....I'm in." Taehyung shrugs again and Jimin scoffs with a sarcastic chuckle of annoyance.
He pushed his empty glass away and leans up to rest his arms on the table.
"Tae..that wasn't an offered invitation. I don't want you getting involved.." Jimin seethes and Taehyung waves him off dismissively as he leaned up as well.
"I'm already fucking involved. And so is Jungkook. Don't you see? " he hissed and Jimins expression drops.
Taehyung lifts his head and glances around the restaurant before continuing.
"Yoongi believes we either staged the shooting to steal from him or that we know who did it and aren't trying to do anything about it because we all got our cut."
Jimin arches a brow and hunches his shoulders.
"So we pay him off. Sever ties." He shakes his head.
"You don't think I already tried that? He and Hoseok showed up at my fucking doorstep."
Taehyung grimaces at the memory, the threat in Yoongis words, and the chaotic amusement in Hoseoks eyes when Yoongis blade probed at his throat.
"He's Agmaui Adeul." Taehyung deadpans and Jimins face blanks as he sat himself up, hitting the back of the booth with a thud.
The realization hitting him like a ton of bricks.
Agmaui Adeul was like the boogeyman, a faceless name passed down to someone deemed the most dangerous. A merciless killer whose reputation floated around Korea on hushed voices in high places.
"Shit." He exhales and Taehyung nods.
"Right. He wants to fuck with us until he sees fit. Now that wouldn't be a huge deal if Minx wasn't stuck in the middle."
